1. A method implemented by a content capture device, comprising:
obtaining, from one or more sensors, signal data corresponding to an emergent condition, wherein:
the emergent condition is determined according to first data of a first sensor indicating that an object has left the proximity of the first sensor, and second data of a second sensor indicating that the object has left the proximity of the second sensor, and
the emergent condition is a speed at which the object is being moved based upon a first time associated with the first data, a second time associated with the second data, and a distance between the first sensor and the second sensor;
determining whether the emergent condition is a priority condition; and
upon determining that the emergent condition is a priority condition:
automatically activating a media capture function of the content capture device; and
causing at least some media to be captured by the content capture device.
