## Abstract

A system and method for modifying a search request corresponding to a person, object, or entity (POE) of interest. The system includes a POE search controller that detects a POE search request, extracts POE of interest metadata including one or more features associated with the POE of interest, generates a POE detection classifier based on the one or more features, identifies types of data capturing devices that are capable of capturing data for detection of the POE of interest, determines data capturing settings based on the POE of interest metadata and respective device type associated with data capturing devices, generates a modified POE search request including the POE detection classifier and respective data capturing settings for each of the one or more types of data capturing devices, and transmits the modified POE search request to one or more communication devices.

### Claim 6 (depends on 4)

The method of claim 4, wherein the one or more communication devices include edge devices and wherein the data capturing devices includes devices that are coupled to the edge devices via a personal area network.

### Claim 7 (depends on 4)

The method of claim 4, further comprising:

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The method of claim 7, further comprising:
generating a second modified POE search request corresponding to a search request corresponding to a second POE of interest; and
transmitting the second modified POE search request to the one or more communication devices with a second priority level assigned to the second modified POE search request.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The method of claim 8, wherein the second priority level is higher than the first priority level, the method further comprising:
configuring the one or more communication devices to de-activate the POE detection process corresponding to the POE of interest at the one or more communication devices and activate a POE detection process corresponding to the second POE of interest at the one or more communication devices responsive to receiving the second modified POE search request with the second priority level at the one or more communication devices.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the POE of interest metadata further includes a location associated with the POE of interest, the method further comprising:
