An information processing device has a receiving section for receiving, from a second vehicle having started the tracking of a first person, the position information of the second vehicle and the image data photographed by the on-vehicle camera mounted on the second vehicle; a control section for searching for the image of the first vehicle included in the image data from the images photographed by monitoring cameras installed around the position indicated by the position information and for tracking the first vehicle searched for using the images photographed by the monitoring cameras; and a transmitting section for transmitting the tracking position information of the first vehicle being tracked by the control section.

Information processing device

An investigation assist system includes a server communicably connected to a first camera, one or more second cameras and a third camera; and a client terminal communicably connected to the server. The first camera captures a wide range of an intersection, the one or more second cameras capture identification information of a license plate and a face of a person in a vehicle entering the intersection, and the third camera captures outdoors. The server acquires and performs video analysis on videos thereby holding a video analysis result. The client terminal receives input of notified information including a date and a location on and at which an incident has occurred, determines to start a first investigation process, or a second investigation process, and tracks a suspect with the first investigation process or an escaping vehicle with the second investigation process.

Investigation assist system and investigation assist method

An information processing device and a determination method for determining whether a person other than the persons determined to be permitted to enter each zone has entered the zone is provided. The information processing device has a communication section for receiving face image data from cameras for photographing respective plurality of zones in a building and a control section for collating the face image data with the registered face image data of the persons permitted to enter each zone and for determining whether the entry of the person corresponding to the face image data is permitted or not.

Information processing device and determination method

A monitoring system includes a plurality of entrance cameras that capture each of visitors from multiple different angles when the each of visitors enters a facility in which a plurality of intra-facility cameras are installed at respective prescribed positions, and a monitoring apparatus that accumulates visitor data which associates captured images of the each of visitors with identification information of the each of visitors, and monitors the each of visitors in the facility. The monitoring apparatus specifies one intra-facility camera installed at or near a position of detection of the abnormality as a near-abnormality-position intra-facility camera in response to a notice of detection of an abnormality in the facility, extracts one or more visitors found in a video captured by the near-abnormality-position intra-facility camera based on the visitor data; and employs the one or more visitors as security action target persons.

Monitoring system and monitoring method

Provided is an investigation assist system including a server communicably connected to a first camera and one or more second cameras; and a client terminal communicably connected to the server. The first camera captures a wide range of an intersection, and the one or more second cameras capture a license plate and a face of a person in a vehicle entering the intersection, and the first camera and the one or more second cameras are arranged at each intersection. The server searches for vehicles using videos captured by the first camera and the one or more second cameras corresponding to an intersection at the location on the date included in the search conditions, specifies a captured image of the escaping vehicle, a license plate of the escaping vehicle and an face of a person in the escaping vehicle, and stores a specified result as investigation information of the suspect.

A directionality control system includes: a camera; a microphone provided as a separate body from the camera; a display that displays video data captured by the camera; and a processor that computes a sound collection direction, which is directed from the microphone toward a sound position corresponding to a designated position in the video data. The processor computes the sound collection direction by using parameters including: a first height of the camera from a reference surface, a second height of the microphone from the reference surface, a third height of a computation reference point from the reference surface, the computation reference point being positioned in the sound collection direction at a position different from the sound position, a direction which is directed from the camera toward the sound position, and a fourth height of the sound position from the reference surface.

Directionality control system, calibration method, horizontal deviation angle computation method, and directionality control method

Sound collection directionality is formed toward a location corresponding to a position designated in a video of a predetermined region which is imaged by a camera apparatus with a microphone array apparatus as a reference, and audio data is collected with high accuracy. In a directionality control system (), a signal processing unit () derives a sound collection direction (&#x3b8;,&#x3b8;) which is directed from an installation position of a microphone array apparatus () toward a sound position corresponding to a position designated in video data on a screen of the display device () in response to a user's designation of any position in the video data displayed on the screen. The signal processing unit () forms sound collection directionality of audio data in the derived sound collection direction (&#x3b8;,&#x3b8;).

A system includes an imaging part that captures an image, a sound collection part that collects sounds, a display part that displays image data captured by the imaging part, a directive direction calculation part that calculates a directive direction which directs toward a sound position corresponding to a designated position of the image data from the sound collection part when any position of the displayed image data is designated, and a control part that forms a directivity in the sounds in the calculated directive direction. The control part controls output of the sounds collected by the sound collection part or output of the sounds which are collected by the sound collection part and of which the directivity is formed, or suspends collection of sounds in the sound collection part, when it is determined that the sound position is included in a preset protection region.

Directivity control system and sound output control method

A directivity control system includes: a sound collection unit, configured to collect a sound; a display unit, configured to display a designation screen used to designate a directivity direction oriented from the sound collection unit to a first sound position; a directivity direction calculation unit, configured to calculate a horizontal angle and a vertical angle from the sound collection unit to the first sound position corresponding to the designated directivity direction in accordance with a designation of the directivity direction on the designation screen displayed by the display unit; and a control unit, configured to form directivity of the sound collected by the sound collection unit based on the horizontal angle and the vertical angle calculated by the directivity direction calculation unit.
