[0022] In this embodiment, a process in which the information processing system obtains the waiting time in the queue will be described. figure 1 is a schematic diagram showing a typical system configuration of the information processing system according to the first embodiment. The information processing system 110 includes a camera 120 and an information processing device 130 connected to the camera 120 via a network. The information processing system 110 obtains the waiting time of the people 111 lined up in the queue 100 using the first estimation process or the second estimation process. A person 111 enters the queue 100 through the entrance 101 , moves along the guide 103 , and leaves the queue 100 through the exit 102 . That is, the queue 100 extends from the exit 102 along the guide 103 towards the entrance 101 . In this embodiment, the time required for a person 111 to leave the queue 100 (via the exit 102 ) after entering the queue 100 (via the entrance 101 ) is re...

[0052] Next, a second embodiment will be described. Matters not mentioned in the second embodiment follow the above-mentioned embodiment. In the second embodiment, if the tail end of the queue is outside the entrance, the entire queue is divided into two queues: a queue located in the first queue area and a queue located in the second queue area. The estimates obtained with the queues are then combined to estimate the total wait time.

[0053] First, the first embodiment will be referred to Figure 6 The division of queues according to this embodiment will be described. exist Figure 6 , the tail end of the queue is located in the second queue area 520 . At this time, the queues located in the setting areas R1 to R3 included in the first queue area 510 are set as the first queues, and the queues located in the setting areas R4 to R6 included in the second queue area 520 are set as the second queues. queue. In this way, the first estimation process can be performed for th...

Abstract

The invention provides an information processing device, an imaging device, an information processing method, and a storage medium. An information processing device that can accurately estimate the waiting time in a queue even if the queue is extended is provided. The information processing device includes a calculating unit that performs a first calculation process for calculating the waiting time of a subject person in the queue on the basis of the time when the subject person detected by a first detecting unit passes through a first line and the time when the subject person detected by a second detecting unit passes through a second line or a second calculation process for calculating the waiting time of a subject person in the queue on the basis of the time when the number of people lined up in the queue including the subject person is acquired by the acquiring unit and the time when the subject person detected by the second detecting unit passes through the second line.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an information processing device, an imaging device, an information processing method, and a storage medium. Background technique [0002] User queues occur at facilities such as station buildings, airports, retail stores and banks. There are techniques for counting people waiting in such a queue from captured images of the queue and estimating the waiting time. [0003] Regarding the counting of people in the queue, in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2008-217289, the number of people entering the room and the number of people leaving the room are measured according to the direction of movement of the people, while the number of people staying in the room is measured according to the measured entering and the difference between the number of people leaving the room is obtained. In Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-287752, people entering or leaving a surveillance area are detected from images of a plurality of cameras ...
