【0030】 請求項1記載の発明によれば、物品を梱包する梱包材が載置される載置部の所定位置にマーカが付されており、梱包材が所定位置のマーカ上に載置され、カメラがマーカを識別できないときに、カメラにより作業動画の録画を開始し、梱包材が所定位置から移動され、カメラがマーカを識別できるときに、録画を終了するように制御する為、作業者が載置部上で梱包作業を行うとき、マーカの上に梱包材が置かれている間は、梱包材によってマーカが隠されるので、カメラがマーカを識別できなくなり、カメラによる作業動画の録画が開始される。また、作業終了後、作業者が載置部から梱包材を他の場所へ運び、梱包材がマーカの上から取り除かれるとマーカが現れるので、カメラがマーカを識別できるようになり、カメラによる作業動画の録画が終了する。これより、通常の梱包作業を行うことで適切な録画をすることができる。

2. A work device comprising: a placement section on which a marker is attached to a predetermined position on which packaging material for packaging an item is placed; a scanner for reading a document corresponding to the item; a camera installed in a position where the presence or absence of the marker can be identified and where work video can be recorded; and control means for controlling the scanner and the camera, wherein the control means controls the camera to start recording work video when the document is read by the scanner, and to stop recording when the packaging material is moved from the predetermined position and the camera can identify the marker.
3. A work device comprising: a placement section on which a marker is attached to a predetermined position on which packaging material for packaging an item is placed; individual information input means for inputting individual information of a document corresponding to the item; a camera installed in a position where the presence or absence of the marker can be identified and where work video can be recorded; and a control means for controlling the individual information input means and the camera, wherein the control means controls the camera to start recording work video when the individual information of the document is input by the individual information input means, and to stop recording when the packaging material is moved from the predetermined position and the camera can identify the marker.
4. The work apparatus according to any one of claims 1 to 3, characterized in that the control means controls the camera to terminate recording of the work video after a predetermined time has elapsed since the camera identified the marker.
5. The work apparatus according to any one of claims 1 to 3, characterized in that the work video from the start to the end of the recording is sequentially taken into a temporary storage memory as image data by the control means, and then stored in a storage device as a recording file in which a plurality of the image data are written, associated with the individual information of the document.
6. The work apparatus according to claim 5, wherein the control means uses the creation date and time data stored as the name of the recording file or the individual information of the document as a search key, searches the database, and retrieves the recording file that matches the search key.
7. The work apparatus according to claim 5, characterized in that the control means reads the image data before recording starts from the temporary storage memory and outputs the image data before recording starts and the image data after recording starts as a single continuous recording file.
8. The work apparatus according to claim 5, characterized in that it has a worker camera for recording video of the worker, and the control means stores the video of the worker as a recording file in a database associated with the individual information of the document.
9. A control method for a work device comprising: a placement section on which a marker is attached to a predetermined position on which packaging material for packaging an article is placed; a scanner for reading a document corresponding to the article; and a camera installed in a position where the presence or absence of the marker can be identified and where a video of the work on the packaging material can be recorded, characterized in that the control method starts recording a video of the work by the camera when the packaging material is placed on the marker at the predetermined position and the camera cannot identify the marker, and ends recording when the packaging material is moved from the predetermined position and the camera can identify the marker.
10. A method for controlling a work device comprising: a placement section on which a marker is attached to a predetermined position on which packaging material for packaging an article is placed; a scanner for reading a document corresponding to the article; and a camera installed in a position where the presence or absence of the marker can be identified and where a video of the work on the packaging material can be recorded, characterized in that the method controls the camera to start recording a video of the work when the document is read by the scanner, and to stop recording when the packaging material is moved from the predetermined position and the camera can identify the marker.
11. A control method for a work device comprising: a placement section on which a marker is attached to a predetermined position on which packaging material for packaging an item is placed; individual information input means for inputting individual information of a document corresponding to the item; and a camera installed in a position where the presence or absence of the marker can be identified and where work video can be recorded, characterized in that the control method starts recording a work video with the camera when the individual information of the document is input by the individual information input means, and ends recording when the packaging material is moved from the predetermined position and the camera can identify the marker.
12. The system includes a camera for filming the packaging process and control means for controlling the operation of the camera. The camera is characterized in that, when a packing material is placed on a placement area where packing work is performed, and a predetermined area of the placement area is covered by the packing material, the camera controls the camera to record the captured data into a storage device based on the image of the predetermined area captured by the camera.
13. The imaging apparatus according to claim 12, wherein the predetermined range is provided with a display for the control means to determine the start or end of recording the imaging data to the storage device.
14. The photographing device according to claim 13, wherein the display is at least one of a code, character, figure, symbol, picture, or pattern that includes a color different from the color of the upper surface of the mounting part described above.
