In this case, the playback processing unit 72 uses permission information indicating that playback has been permitted as the request result. The communication unit 31 transmits the information to the playback device 40. The playback processing unit 72 also receives the playback request. If it is determined that the identification information associated with the video data is not included in the playback request, then the video Image data playback is not permitted. In this case, the playback processing unit 72 will issue a notice that playback is not permitted. The communication unit 31 sends the available information as a request result to the playback device 40.

[0039] Next, we will explain the operation flow of the video management system 100 configured as described above. Figure 3 Figure 6 shows an example of the operation of the video management system 100.

[0040] First, regarding the operation when setting authentication information between terminal device 10 and drive recorder 20: Let me explain. As shown in Figure 3, authentication information is sent to the input unit 22 of the drive recorder 20. When a predetermined operation for setting the information is performed, the setting control unit 61 displays a password to the display unit 23. The code is displayed for a certain period of time. When a password is entered via the input section 11 of the terminal device 10... In conclusion, the authentication processing unit 51 causes the drive recorder 20 to send the password.

[0041] When the drive recorder 20 receives a password sent from the terminal device 10, In total, the setting control unit 61 determines whether the password is valid or not. If the code is deemed appropriate, the authentication information is sent to the terminal device 10.

[0042] When the terminal device 10 receives authentication information transmitted from the drive recorder 20, The authentication processing unit 51 stores the received authentication information in the storage unit 14. The authentication information stored in unit 14 is set as identification information. Note that the terminal device 10 and the drive The authentication method between Coder 20 and the other party is not limited to the method described above, and other methods may also be used. stomach.

[0043] Next, we will explain the operation of the drive recorder 20 when generating corresponding data. In addition, a terminal device with identification information I1 and I2 set in vehicle R equipped with drive recorder 20. This section explains the case where users U1 and U2, who possess item 10, board the vehicle.

[0044] In the drive recorder 20, the recording unit 21 captures at least one of the interior and exterior of the vehicle. The camera captures images and generates video data at predetermined intervals. The camera unit 21 corresponds to the time. The camera unit 21 then generates video data. The camera unit 21 stores the generated video data in the storage unit 25. In the example shown in Figure 4, the imaging unit 21 generates video data D1, D2, and D3.

[0045] In the terminal device 10 owned by users U1 and U2, the communication control unit 52 controls the drive recorder Broadcasting short-range radio signals S1 and S2 containing identification information I1 and I2 to the driver 20. The transmission is initiated by a transmission. The communication control unit 52, for example, after a predetermined time has elapsed since the video data was generated. The system will transmit a short-range wireless signal containing the identification information at shorter intervals.

[0046] In the drive recorder 20, the communication unit 24 receives short-range wireless signals transmitted from the terminal device 10. The communication unit 2 receives line signals S1 and S2 and detects the strength of the short-range wireless signals S1 and S2. 4 outputs the received short-range wireless signals S1 and S2 and the detected intensity to the control unit 26. Furthermore, the extraction unit 62 extracts identification information I1 and I2 based on the received short-range wireless signals S1 and S2. To obtain.

[0047] The extraction unit 62 selects from the acquired identification information I1 and I2 the terminal device 1 located inside the vehicle R. Identification information starting from 0 is extracted. In this case, the extraction unit 62 receives the nearest data received by the communication unit 24. If the intensity of the distance radio signals S1 and S2 is above a predetermined threshold, the short-range radio signal S1, The identification information contained in S2 is extracted as identification information from the terminal device 10 located inside the vehicle. Meanwhile, the extraction unit 62 determines the intensity of the short-range wireless signals S1 and S2 received by the communication unit 24. If the value is below a predetermined threshold, the identification information contained in the short-range radio signals S1 and S2 is as follows: The following should not be extracted. In the example shown in Figure 4, the extraction unit 62 extracts the short-range wireless signal S1, Since the intensity of S2 is above a predetermined threshold, the identification included in the short-range wireless signals S1 and S2 Information I1 and I2 are extracted as identification information from the terminal device 10 located inside the vehicle M.

[0048] The generation unit 63 uses the video data D1, D2, and D3 generated by the shooting unit 21 and the extraction unit 62 Corresponding data T1, T2, and T3 are generated by associating the extracted identification information I1 and I2. The generation unit 63 generates corresponding data for each of the video data D1, D2, and D3. For example, the video data D1, D2, and D3 are extracted during the generation period from the start to the completion of generation. By associating the identified information I1 and I2 with the video data, corresponding data is generated. Therefore, during the generation period of video data D1, D2, and D3, users U1 and U2 were in vehicle R. The identification information I1 and I2 are associated with the corresponding data T of the video data D1, D2, and D3. 1, T2, and T3 are generated.

[0049] Here, for example, after video data D3 is generated, one of the two users U1 and U2 User U2 disembarks, and after User U2 disembarks, the camera unit 21 generates video data D4 and D5. Let's explain the case where this occurs. In this case, as shown in Figure 5, the terminal possessed by user U1 A short-range wireless signal S1 containing identification information I1 is transmitted from the terminal device 10. Drive recorder In 20, the communication unit 24 receives the short-range wireless signal S1 transmitted from the terminal device 10. The extraction unit 62 acquires identification information I1 based on the received short-range wireless signal S1. The identification information I1 is extracted as identification information from the terminal device 10 located inside the vehicle R. The adult section 63 is the correspondence data T4, which associates the identification information I1 with the video data D4 and D5. T5 is generated. This means that during the generation period of video data D4 and D5, the user riding in vehicle M is... - The identification information I1 of the U1 is associated with the corresponding data T4 of the video data D4 and D5. T5 is generated.

[0050] The communication control unit 64 sends the corresponding data T1 to T5 generated by the generation unit 63 to the management device 30. I believe.

[0051] In the management device 30, the communication unit 31 receives the transmitted corresponding data T1 to T5. The memory processing unit 71 stores the corresponding data T1 to T5 received by the communication unit 31 in the memory unit 32. The memory unit 32 stores the corresponding data T to T5.

[0052] Next, we will explain the operation when playback is performed. Perform a predetermined operation on the playback device 40. As a result, a regeneration request is sent to the management device 30. In Figure 6, users U1 and U 2. Playback of video data D1 and D4 from different playback devices 40 to the management device 30. This is illustrated using the example of sending a request.

[0053] In the management device 30, the communication unit 31 receives a playback request. The playback processing unit 72 communicates When a playback request is received in section 31, the identification information associated with the video data for which the playback request was received The playback processing unit 72 determines whether the information is included in the playback request. If it is determined that the identification information associated with the data is included in the playback request, the video data will be played Allows playback. Also, the playback processing unit 72 associates the video data for which playback has been requested with If it is determined that the identification information is not included in the playback request, playback of the video data will not be permitted.

[0054] In the example shown in Figure 6, the playback request by user U1 includes identification information I1. The video data D1, which was received as a raw request, is associated with the user U1's identification information I1. Therefore, in the management device 30, the playback processing unit 72 receives a playback request from user U1. It is determined that the video data D1 and D4 are associated with the user U1's identification information I1. In this case, the playback processing unit 72 receives playback requests for video data D1 and D4 from user U1. Permission granted. The playback processing unit 72 grants permission to the user U1's playback device 40 to play. The permission information is sent as the request result. User U1's playback device 40, upon receiving the permission information, In addition, based on the said permission information, the management device 30 downloads video data D1 and D4. Play it.

[0055] In the example shown in Figure 6, the playback request by user U2 includes identification information I2. The video data D1, which was received as a raw request, is associated with the user U2's identification information I2. Therefore, in the management device 30, the playback processing unit 72 receives the video data D from the playback request. It is determined that the user U2's identification information I2 is associated with 1. In this case, the playback process The control unit 72 grants permission for the playback of video data D1 from user U2. The playback processing unit 72 The user U2's playback device 40 requires permission information to allow playback of video data D1. The request result is sent. When user U2's playback device 40 receives permission information, it sends the permission information. Based on the available information, the video data D1 is downloaded from the management device 30 and played back.

[0056] On the other hand, the video data D4 is not associated with the user U2's identification information I2. Therefore, the playback processing unit 72, regarding the video data D4 for which playback has been requested, will process the data for user U2. It is determined that the identification information I2 is not associated. In this case, the playback processing unit 72 determines that the user The playback processing unit 72 will not allow the playback request for video data D4 from U2. A request for disallowance information has been made to terminal device 10 of U2, indicating that playback of video data D4 is not permitted. The result is transmitted. If user U2's playback device 40 receives unauthorized information, the video data The process will terminate without playing D4.

[0057] Furthermore, by providing the terminal device 10 with the function of the playback device 40 described above, the terminal Device 10 can also be used as a regeneration device 40.

[0058] Figures 7 to 9 are flowcharts illustrating an example of the operation of the video management system 100. Figure 7 shows the operation when setting authentication information between the terminal device 10 and the drive recorder 20. As shown in Figure 7, the terminal device 10 communicates with the drive recorder 20, and the certification information is then displayed. Install the application for setting up notifications (step S101). In this state, the user performs a predetermined operation on the input unit 22 of the drive recorder 20. If this occurs, the setting control unit 61 will display the password on the display unit 23 (step S102). .

[0059] In terminal device 10, the password displayed on the display unit 23 of the drive recorder 20 is When input is entered into the input unit 11 and an operation is performed to send the password, the authentication processing unit 51 causes the communication unit 13 to send the password (step S103).

[0060] In the drive recorder 20, the communication unit 24 receives the transmitted password ( Step S104). The setting control unit 61 determines whether the received password is valid or not (S Step S105). The setting control unit 61 determines that the password is valid (step (Yes to step S105), the authentication information is sent to the terminal device 10 as an authentication result (step S106). On the other hand, if the setting control unit 61 determines that the password is not valid, (S The authentication result indicates that the password is incorrect (P-S105 No.) and is transmitted to terminal device 1. Send to 0 (step S107).

[0061] In terminal device 10, after sending a password to drive recorder 20, the communication control unit 64 determines whether it has received the authentication result from the drive recorder 20 (step S10) 8) If it is determined that the authentication result has not been received (No. in step S108), step The operation of S108 is repeated.

[0062] If it is determined that the authentication result has been received (Yes in step S108), If the authentication result is authentication information (Yes in step S109), the communication control unit 64 receives The authentication information is set as identification information (step S110), and the process is terminated. If the received authentication result is NG information (No. in step S109), the communication control unit 64 The process in step S110 is skipped, and the process ends.

[0063] Figure 8 shows the operation of generating and storing corresponding data. As shown in Figure 8, terminal device 10 In this process, the communication control unit 52 sends identification information to the drive recorder 20 at predetermined intervals. A short-range radio signal including is transmitted (step S201).

[0064] In the drive recorder 20, the recording unit 21 records images of the interior and exterior of the vehicle for a predetermined period of time. Each time, video data is generated and stored in the storage unit 25 (step S202).

[0065] Furthermore, the communication unit 24 receives short-range wireless signals transmitted from the terminal device 10 (step Step S203). Steps S202 and S203 are used to determine which process to start first. Alternatively, processing may be started at the same time. The extraction unit 62 extracts from the short-range wireless signal. Identification information is obtained (step S204), and from the obtained identification information, terminals present in the vehicle Identification information is extracted from the terminal device 10 (step S205). The generation unit 63 is connected to the imaging unit 21 Correspondence data that associates the video data generated by the system with the identification information extracted by the extraction unit 62. (Step S206) The communication control unit 64 generates the corresponding data and manages the device Send to 30 (step S207).

[0066] In the management device 30, the communication unit 31 receives the transmitted corresponding data (step S 208). The memory processing unit 71 causes the received corresponding data to be stored in the memory unit 32 (step S209).

[0067] Figure 9 shows the operation when playing back video data included in the corresponding data. Thus, when a predetermined operation is performed in the regeneration device 40, the management device 30 receives A playback request with identification information is sent (step S301).

[0068] In the management device 30, the communication unit 31 receives a playback request (step S302). When the video processing unit 72 receives a playback request from the communication unit 31, it processes the video data for which the playback request was received. It is determined whether the associated identification information is included in the playback request (step S303). The playback processing unit 72 receives an identification information associated with the video data that has been requested for playback. If it is determined that it is included (Yes in step S303), the message will be sent to allow playback of the video data.
