A tracking support system includes a position calculating section connected with a plurality of cameras arranged in a predetermined monitoring area to transmit video images imaged by the plurality of cameras and configured to calculate a position of the tracking target based on the video images received from the plurality of cameras; a tracker selecting section configured to select a tracker to be instructed to track the tracking target, based on position information of the terminal received from the terminal and the calculated position of the tracking target; and an information transmitting section configured to transmit information of a distance between the tracking target and the terminal during the tracking of the tracking target to the terminal carried by the selected tracker.

Tracking support apparatus, terminal, tracking support system, tracking support method and program

A video collection system includes: a plurality of terminals; and a video collection server that requests at least one of the plurality of terminals to perform information provision. The video collection server includes a calculation part, a determination part, and a request part. The calculation part calculates, based on information acquired from a camera(s), a first area(s) imaged by the camera(s). The determination part determines a second area(s) as an information provision target(s) based on a location(s) of the first area(s). The request part selects, based on respective locations of the plurality of terminals and a location(s) of the second area(s), a terminal(s) to be requested to perform the information provision from the plurality of terminals and requests the selected terminal(s) to provide video data of the second area(s).

Video collection system, video collection server, video collection method, and program

A image processing apparatus according to an aspect of the present invention includes: determination unitthat determines a first region based on an occurrence position where a phenomenon is estimated to occur in an image; and setting unitthat sets a first condition in which the first region is encoded, and a second condition in which a second region included in the image and being a region other than the first region is encoded in such a way that the first region enhances image quality as compared with the second region.

Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and storage medium having program stored therein

The present invention relates to a terminal device having an operation system and is capable of using a first application program for use in real time communication and a second application program for another purpose simultaneously on the operation system, the terminal device is characterized by being provided with a means for setting interval between system calls which calculates a frequency of system call executions when the issuance of the system call to the operation system by the second application program is simultaneously executed during the real time communication by the first application program, and when the execution frequency has exceeded a predetermined threshold, sets an execution interval time between the system calls to a given length of time or more.
