A method, article of manufacture, and apparatus for monitoring a location having a plurality of audio sensors and video sensors are disclosed. In an embodiment, this comprises receiving auditory data, comparing a portion of the auditory data to a lexicon comprising a plurality of keywords to determine if there is a match to a keyword from the lexicon, and if a match is found, selecting at least one video sensor to monitor an area to be monitored. Video data from the video sensor is archived with the auditory data and metadata. The video sensor is selected by determining video sensors associated with the areas to be monitored. A lookup table is used to determine the association. Cartesian coordinates may be used to determine positions of components and their areas of coverage.

1. A method of monitoring a location having a plurality of audio sensors and video sensors, comprising: receiving auditory data from at least one of the plurality of audio sensors;comparing at least a first portion of the auditory data to a lexicon comprising a plurality of keywords;invoking at least one policy based on the comparison;determining a first area to be monitored based on the invoked policy, wherein the first area is selected from a plurality of monitored areas;assigning a priority to the first area to be monitored based on the invoked policy; andbased on the priority, selecting at least one video sensor to monitor the first area. 2. The method as recited in claim 1, further comprising comparing at least a second portion of the auditory data to the lexicon if the first comparison returns a positive result. 3. The method as recited in claim 1, further comprising determining a second area to be monitored and selecting at least one video sensor to monitor the second area. 4. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein selecting the at least one video sensor includes determining at least one video sensor associated with the area. 5. The method as recited in claim 4, further comprising searching a lookup table to determine the at least one video sensor associated with the area. 6. The method as recited in claim 5, further comprising determining a primary video sensor and a secondary video sensor associated with the area. 7. The method as recited in claim 6, wherein determining the primary sensor and the secondary sensor includes reading data indicating the primary sensor and secondary sensor from the lookup table. 8. The method as recited in claim 4, further comprising querying an object associated with the area to determine the at least one video sensor associated with the area. 9. The method as recited in claim 8, further comprising determining a primary video sensor and a secondary video sensor associated with the area. 10. The method as recited in claim 9, wherein determining the primary sensor and the secondary sensor includes querying the object for data indicating the primary sensor and secondary sensor. 11. The method as recited in claim 4, further comprising determining configuration information for the at least one video sensor. 12. The method as recited in claim 11, further comprising controlling the video sensor in accordance with the configuration information. 13. The method as recited in claim 12, wherein the configuration information includes at least one of the group comprising pan, zoom, or tilt information. 14. A system for monitoring a location, comprising: a plurality of audio sensors configured to transmit auditory data;a plurality of video sensors configured to transmit video data; anda processor;wherein the processor is configured to:receive auditory data from at least one of the plurality of audio sensors;compare at least a first portion of the auditory data to a lexicon comprising a plurality of keywords;invoke at least one policy based on the comparison;determine a first area to be monitored based on the invoked policy, wherein the first area is selected from a plurality of monitored areas;assign a priority to the first area to be monitored based on the invoked policy; andbased on the priority, selecting at least one video sensor to monitor the first area. 15. The system as recited in claim 14, configured to select the at least one video sensor by determining at least one video sensor associated with the area. 16. The system as recited in claim 15, further configured to search a lookup table to determine the at least one video sensor associated with the area. 17. The system as recited in claim 16, further configured to determine a primary video sensor and a secondary video sensor associated with the area. 18. The system as recited in claim 17, further configured to determine configuration information for the at least one video sensor. 19. The system as recited in claim 18, further comprising a controller configured to control the at least one video sensor, and wherein the processor is configured to instruct the controller to control the video sensor in accordance with the configuration information. 20. A computer program product for monitoring a location having a plurality of audio sensors and video sensors, comprising a computer usable medium having machine readable code embodied therein for: receiving auditory data from at least one of the plurality of audio sensors;comparing at least a first portion of the auditory data to a lexicon comprising a plurality of keywords;invoking at least one policy based on the comparison;determining a first area to be monitored based on the invoked policy, wherein the first area is selected from a plurality of monitored areas;assigning a priority to the first area to be monitored based on the invoked policy; andbased on the priority, selecting at least one video sensor to monitor the first area.
