The invention proposes a client device () having a screen (), having a display device () for displaying a first image representation on said screen (), wherein said first image representation shows an actual image section () in an actual selected range () from an image coordinate system P, P. The client device also has a selection device () which is designed to select a desired selected range () from the image coordinate system P, P, and a communications device () which is designed to request and receive a desired image section () of the desired selected range (). The display device () is designed to display, in a second image representation, the actual image section () correctly in terms of position and size in the desired selected range () and, in an additional image representation, to display the desired image section () correctly in terms of position and size in the desired selected range (), the actual image section () and the desired image section () coming from different images of an image sequence.

Client device, monitoring system, method for displaying images on a screen and computer program

Embodiments provide to a client device for displaying camera images of a controllable camera. The client device includes a screen and a display device for displaying a first image representation on the screen. The first image representation shows an actual camera image in an actual visual range of the camera. The client device also includes a selection device designed to select a desired visual range of the camera, and has a communications device designed to request and receive a desired camera image in the desired camera visual range. The display device is designed to display, in a second image representation, at least some portion of the actual camera image correctly in terms of position and size in the desired camera visual range and, in an additional image representation, to display the desired camera image correctly in terms of position and size in the desired camera visual range.

Client device for displaying images of a controllable camera, method, computer program and monitoring system comprising said client device

In spacious areas or building complexes, it is customary to use monitoring systems that comprise monitoring cameras and other monitoring sensors that record monitoring data and forward said monitoring data to a monitoring control centre or the like for the purpose of evaluation. Depending on the size of the monitored area, the complexity of the monitoring system can increase to a great extent. Upwards of a certain size of monitoring area, it is necessary for several monitoring persons also to be employed in parallel in order to inspect the monitoring data. A monitoring installationfor a monitoring area B having a plurality of monitoring stationsfor usersof the monitoring installation, wherein the monitoring installationis designed to assign a respective user ID ID_, ID_, ID_, ID_to the usersof the monitoring installation, wherein the monitoring stationseach have a display device, wherein the monitoring stationsare designed to present a user interfacefor the monitoring installationhaving a modelof the monitoring areaon the display device, and having a collaboration device, wherein the collaboration deviceis designed to show a first of the user IDs ID_6from a first monitoring stationtogether with an associated piece of user information as collaboration data with the modelon the user interfaceof at least one second monitoring station, is proposed.

Monitoring installation for a monitoring area, method and computer program

The invention relates to a user interface arrangement () for displaying and/or playing back video sequences (), said video sequences () each displaying an event and being captured during a monitoring period (), wherein said user interface arrangement () has a control unit () and a screen (). Said control unit () controls said screen () for showing a display (), said display () comprising a timeline () that indicates said monitoring period () or a portion of the monitoring period (). The display () comprises at least one marking () for chronologically classifying and for indicating the duration of the at least one video sequence () on said timeline () or in relation to the timeline ().

User interface arrangement and computer program for displaying a monitoring period

The invention relates to a mobile receiver unit () for controlling an actuator () for setting a pan and/or tilt angle &#x3b1;, &#x3b2; of a camera (), said unit having a display deviceto display an image captured by the camera (), a control device () to define control commands for the actuator () and a transmitter unit () to transmit the control commands to the actuator (), wherein the control device () has a gyroscopic sensor () to detect a relative change in angle of the mobile receiver unit () around at least one axis A, B, wherein a control command for a relative angle change of the pan angle &#x3b1; and/or the tilt angle &#x3b2; of the camera () is determined by the relative angle change, and/or the control device () has a compass sensor () to detect an absolute angle position of the mobile receiver unit () around at least one axis A, B, wherein a control command for an absolute angle setting of the pan angle &#x3b1; of the camera is determined by the absolute angle position.

Mobile receiver unit, method for operating the mobile receiver unit and computer program

A configuration module () for a video surveillance system () having a plurality of surveillance cameras (a-d) which are and/or may be distributed throughout a surveillance region () including, a model memory () which is designed to provide a model () of the surveillance region (), camera data of the surveillance cameras (a-d) being entered and/or referenced in the model (); an input interface () for the input of at least one surveillance target () into the model (); a computing device () which determines at least one camera-specific surveillance target section (a, b) for at least one of the surveillance cameras (a, b) based on the surveillance target () that was input; and a hidden-region checking device () which is designed to a check whether the surveillance target () is hidden in front of one of the surveillance cameras (a-d).
