Large venue surveillance and reaction systems and methods using dynamically analyzed emotional input

A method of monitoring a venue of interest, the method comprising:

• receiving, over a first electronic interface, quantified representations of inferred emotional states of one or more individuals;
• dynamically performing a set of pre-programmed scenarios in real-time as events continue to stream in over the first electronic interface to determine whether an incident might be occurring and/or might have occurred, each said first scenario being implemented as a logic sequence that takes into account at least an aspect of a representation of an inferred emotional state;
• dynamically determining an action to be taken, in response to a determination that a given incident might be occurring and/or might have occurred, the action being selected as an appropriate response for the given incident;
• and
• issuing a message to cause the action to be taken.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium tangibly storing instructions that, when executed, monitor a venue of interest in connection with a computer system that is controlled by the instructions to at least:

• receive, over a first electronic interface, quantified representations of inferred emotional states of one or more individuals;
• dynamically perform a set of pre-programmed scenarios in real-time as events continue to stream in over the first electronic interface to determine whether an incident might be occurring and/or might have occurred, each said first scenario being implemented as a logic sequence that takes into account at least an aspect of a representation of an inferred emotional state;
• dynamically determine an action to be taken, in response to a determination that a given incident might be occurring and/or might have occurred, the action being selected as an appropriate response for the given incident;
• and
• issue a message to cause the action to be taken.
