A video processing apparatus obtains information describing the amount of displacement of images in multiple predetermined units (such as video durations) imaged by an imaging apparatus from an image at steady state, which is a reference, and displays the images in the multiple predetermined units in decreasing order of amounts of displacement based on the obtained information describing the amounts of displacement.

Video processing method for reducing the load of viewing

On the basis of state change information acquired by one of sensor nodes forming a sensor network, an instruction indicative of emitting a signal is issued to another node to acquire a photographed image from a camera. An image processing device identifies the ID and actual position of the node by issuing the signal issuance instruction to the node and detecting a signal obtained from the node from the photographed image. On the basis of personal information stored in a database, the image processing device detects a not-allowed action.

Node management system and node managing program using sensing system

Surveillance system and surveillance method for detecting intruders. An image-pickup unit takes an image of a predetermined area, a person detection unit detects, on the basis of the taken image, information concerning people pictured in the image, radio terminal units are held and carried by people, radio reception units receive signals transmitted by radio from the radio terminal units present in the predetermined area, a terminal detection unit detects information concerning the radio terminal units on the basis of the received signals and an intruder decision unit detects information concerning an intruder on the basis of the information concerning the detected persons and the information detected in connection with the radio terminal units.
