Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0014] (Embodiment 1) First, with reference to FIG. 1, a configuration example of the information processing apparatus 10 according to Embodiment 1 will be described.

[0015] FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of the information processing apparatus 10.

[0016] As shown in FIG. 1, the information processing apparatus 10 includes an entrance passage number acquisition means 203a that acquires the number of entrance passers who have passed through the entrance of an authentication area having a keyed entrance and a keyed exit, an authentication success number counting means 203b that counts the number of authentication successful persons among the entrance passers who have passed through the entrance, and a control means 203d that controls the locked states of the entrance key and the exit key.

[0017] When the number of entrance passers matches the number of authentication successful persons, the control means 203d controls the exit key to unlock the exit key.

[0018] Next, an example of the operation of the information processing apparatus 10 will be described.

[0019] FIG. 2 is a flowchart of an example of the operation of the information processing apparatus 10.

[0020] First, the entrance passage number acquisition means 203a acquires the number of entrance passers who have passed through the entrance of an authentication area having a keyed entrance and a keyed exit (step S1).

[0021] Next, the authentication success number counting means 203b counts the number of authentication successful persons among the entrance passers who have passed through the entrance (step S2).

[0022] Next, when the number of entrance passers matches the number of authentication successful persons, the control means 203d controls the exit key to unlock the exit key (step S3).

[0023] As described above, according to the first embodiment, it is possible to effectively prevent piggybacking into an important area.

[0024] This is because access to the authentication area is restricted by using an authentication area having a keyed entrance and a keyed exit, and control means 203d for controlling the locked states of the entrance key and the exit key.

[0025] (Embodiment 2) Hereinafter, as Embodiment 2 of the present disclosure, an information processing system 1 (anti-tailing system) including an information processing apparatus 10 will be described in detail. Embodiment 2 is an embodiment that concretizes Embodiment 1.

[0026] FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an information processing system 1 (anti-tailing system) according to Embodiment 2.

[0027] As shown in FIG. 3, the information processing system 1 includes a first stereo camera 101, a second stereo camera 102, an authentication terminal 103, a key 104a (electric lock) for the entrance 104 of the authentication room 100, a key 105a (electric lock) for the exit 105 of the authentication room 100, a face authentication server 201, a video analysis server 202, a management server 203, a database 204, and a face image registration PC 205. These are connected via a network NW and can communicate with each other via the network NW.

[0028] The first stereo camera 101, the second stereo camera 102, the authentication terminal 103, the key 104a (electric lock) for the entrance 104 of the authentication room 100, and the key 105a (electric lock) for the exit 105 of the authentication room 100 are provided in the authentication room 100. The key 104a (electric lock) for the entrance 104 of the authentication room 100 is an example of the first security device of the present invention. The key 105a (electric lock) for the exit 105 of the authentication room 100 is an example of the second security device of the present invention.

[0029] FIG. 4 is an arrangement example of the authentication room 100.

[0030] As shown in FIG. 4, the authentication room 100 is arranged between the front area A1 and the important area A2. The authentication room 100 is provided with an entrance 104 with a key 104a whose locked state is controlled by the management server 203 and an exit 105 with a key 105a whose locked state is controlled by the management server 203. The authentication room 100 is an example of the authentication area of the present invention. On the other hand, the face authentication server 201, the video analysis server 202, the management server 203, the database 204, and the face image registration PC 205 are provided in the machine room 200.

[0031] The first stereo camera 101 is provided, for example, on the ceiling near the entrance 104 of the authentication room 100 in order to image the passers-by (exemplified by two passers-by U1 and U2 in FIG. 4) passing through the entrance 104 of the authentication room 100. The video imaged by the first stereo camera 101 is transmitted to the video analysis server 202.

[0032] The second stereo camera 102 is provided, for example, on the ceiling near the exit 105 of the authentication room 100 in order to image the passers-by (exemplified by two passers-by U1 and U2 in FIG. 4) passing through the exit 105 of the authentication room 100. The video imaged by the second stereo camera 102 is transmitted to the video analysis server 202.

[0033] The authentication terminal 103 is provided with a camera 103a for imaging the face image of the person to be authenticated (exemplified by two passers-by U1 and U2 in FIG. 4) and a display 103b with a touch panel operated by the person to be authenticated. The face image captured by the camera 103a is transmitted to the face authentication server 201. Each of the screens G1 to G5 shown in FIG. 5 is displayed on the display 103b. FIG. 5 is an example of each of the screens G1 to G5 displayed on the display 103b.

[0034] The face authentication server 201 collates the face image (feature amount) transmitted from the authentication terminal 103 with the face image (feature amount) registered in the database 204, that is, performs authentication (face authentication) based on the biometric information of the person to be authenticated, and transmits the authentication result to the management server 203.

[0035] The video analysis server 202 executes predetermined processing on the video transmitted from the first stereo camera 101 (or the second stereo camera 102) to count the number of people passing through the entrance (or the number of people passing through the exit), and transmits the number of people passing through the entrance (or the number of people passing through the exit) to the management server 203. As a technique for counting the number of people using a stereo camera, for example, the one described in https: / / www.p-counter.com / ?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIj5zK-IDG8gIVb8FMAh39vwRtEAAYAiAAEgKLgPD_BwE can be used.

[0036] The management server 203 functions as an entrance passing number acquisition means 203a for acquiring the number of entrance passers who have passed through the entrance 104 of the authentication room 100 having the keyed entrance 104 and the keyed exit 105, an authentication successful number counting means 203b for counting the number of authenticated successful passers among the entrance passers who have passed through the entrance 104, an exit passing number acquisition means 203c for acquiring the number of exit passers who have passed through the exit 105, and a control means 203d for controlling the locked states of the key 104a of the entrance 104 and the key 105a of the exit 105. When the number of entrance passers and the number of authenticated successful passers match, the control means 203d controls the key 105a of the exit 105 to unlock the key 105a of the exit 105. Also, when the number of entrance passers and the number of exit passers match (when all the entrance passers have left the authentication room 100), the control means 203d controls the key 104a of the entrance 104 to unlock the key 104a of the entrance 104, and controls the key 105a of the exit 105 to lock the key 105a of the exit 105. The management server 203 is an example of the information processing apparatus of the present invention.

[0037] The database 204 stores face images of people permitted to enter and exit the important area A2. These face images are registered in the database 204 using the face image registration PC 205.

[0038] Next, an operation example of the information processing system 1 (anti-tailing system) will be described.

[0039] Figures 6 to 10 are sequence diagrams of operation examples of the information processing system 1 (accompanying person prevention system).

[0040] Hereinafter, a case where there are two passers-by U1 and U2 passing through the entrance 104 of the authentication room 100 will be described as an example. Note that the number of passers-by may be one or three or more.

[0041] First, the first stereo camera 101 images the entrance passers-by U1 and U2 passing through the entrance 104, and transmits the captured video to the video analysis server 202 (step S10).

[0042] Next, the video analysis server 202 counts the number of entrance passers-by by performing predetermined processing on the video transmitted from the first stereo camera 101 (step S11), and transmits the counted number (hereinafter referred to as the entrance passing number) to the management server 203 (step S12).

[0043] Next, the management server 203 (entrance passing number acquisition means 203a) receives (acquires) the entrance passing number transmitted from the video analysis server 202 (step S12A). The management server 203 stores the acquired entrance passing number in a storage unit (not shown) (step S13).

[0044] Next, the authentication terminal 103 displays an authentication start screen G1 (see FIG. 5) on the display 103b (step S14).

[0045] The passer-by U1 or U2 who has moved from the front area A1 through the entrance 104 to the authentication room 100 touches the authentication start button in the authentication start screen G1. Thereby, authentication (authentication process) is started (step S15: Yes), and the authentication terminal 103 transmits an authentication start notification to the management server 203 (step S16).

[0046] Next, when the management server 203 receives the authentication start notification sent from the authentication terminal 103, it controls the key 104a of the entrance 104 to lock the key 104a of the entrance 104 (step S16A). Further, the management server 203 transmits an authentication instruction notification to the authentication terminal 103 (step S17).

[0047] Next, when the authentication terminal 103 receives the authentication instruction notification sent from the management server 203, it displays an authentication instruction screen G2 (see FIG. 5) on the display 103b (step S18).

[0048] When canceling the authentication (authentication process) (step S19: Yes), the passerby U1 or U2 who has moved from the front area A1 through the entrance 104 to the authentication room 100 touches the authentication cancellation button on the authentication instruction screen G2. Thereby, the authentication (authentication process) is canceled, and the authentication terminal 103 transmits an authentication cancellation notification to the management server 203 (step S20).

[0049] Next, when the management server 203 (control means 203d) receives the authentication cancellation notification sent from the authentication terminal 103, it controls the key 104a of the entrance 104 of the authentication room 100 to release the lock of the key 104a of the entrance 104 (step S21).

[0050] On the other hand, when not canceling the authentication (step S19: No), that is, when not touching the authentication cancellation button on the authentication instruction screen G2, the authentication (authentication process) continues. That is, the authentication terminal 103 captures a face image of the authentication target person by the camera 103a for each of the passersby U1, U2 (hereinafter also referred to as authentication target persons) (step S22), and transmits the face image to the face authentication server 201 (step S23). Here, first, it is assumed that the face image of the authentication target person U1 is captured and the face image is transmitted to the face authentication server 201.

[0051] Next, when the face authentication server 201 receives the face image transmitted from the authentication terminal 103, it collates the face image (feature amount) with the face image (feature amount) registered in the database 204 (step S24), and transmits the authentication result to the management server 203 (step S25).

[0052] If the authentication result transmitted from the face authentication server 201 is an authentication failure (step S26: No), the management server 203 transmits an authentication failure notice to the authentication terminal 103 (step S27).

[0053] Next, when the authentication terminal 103 receives the authentication failure notice transmitted from the management server 203, it displays an authentication failure screen G3 (see FIG. 5) on the display 103b (step S28). Then, it returns to step S18, and the processing after step S18 is repeatedly executed.

[0054] On the other hand, if the authentication result transmitted from the face authentication server 201 is an authentication success (step S26: Yes), the management server 203 (authentication success person count means 203b) counts the number of authenticated successful persons among the entrance passers who have passed through the entrance 104 (step S26A).

[0055] Next, the management server 203 determines whether the authentication has been successful for the number of entrance passers (the number of entrance passers memorized in step S13), that is, whether the number of entrance passers (the number of entrance passers memorized in step S13) matches the number of authenticated successful persons (the number counted in step S26A) (step S29).

[0056] As a result of the determination in step S29, if it is determined that the authentication has not been successful for the number of entrance passers (step S29: No), that is, if the number of entrance passers (the number of entrance passers memorized in step S13) does not match the number of authenticated successful persons (the number counted in step S26A), the management server 203 transmits the next authentication instruction notice to the authentication terminal 103 (step S30).

[0057] Next, when the authentication terminal 103 receives the next authentication instruction notification sent from the management server 203, it displays the next authentication instruction screen G4 (see FIG. 5) on the display 103b (step S31). Then, it returns to step S19, and the processes after step S19 are repeatedly executed.

[0058] On the other hand, if as a result of the determination in step S29, it is determined that the authentication for the number of people passing through the entrance has been successful (step S29: Yes), that is, if the number of people passing through the entrance (the number of people passing through the entrance stored in step S13) matches the number of successful authenticators (the number counted in step S26A), the management server 203 sends an authentication completion notification to the authentication terminal 103 (step S32). Also, the management server 203 controls the key 105a of the exit 105 of the authentication room 100 to unlock the key 105a of the exit 105 (step S33). Thereby, the authenticated persons are permitted to leave the authentication room (authentication area).

[0059] Next, when the authentication terminal 103 receives the authentication completion notification sent from the management server 203, it displays the authentication completion screen G5 (see FIG. 5) on the display 103b (step S34).

[0060] The authentication subjects U1, U2 who have seen this authentication completion screen G5 move to the important area A2 through the exit 105. At this time, the second stereo camera 102 images the persons passing through the exit 105 (authentication subjects U1, U2), and transmits the imaged video to the video analysis server 202 (step S35).

[0061] Next, the video analysis server 202 counts the number of persons passing through the exit by performing a predetermined process on the video transmitted from the second stereo camera 102 (step S36), and transmits the counted number (hereinafter referred to as the number of persons passing through the exit) to the management server 203 (step S37).

[0062] Next, the management server 203 (exit passage number acquisition means 203c) receives (acquires) the number of people passing through the exit transmitted from the video analysis server 202 (step S37A).

[0063] And when the number of people entering (the number of people entering remembered in step S13) matches the number of people exiting (step S38: Yes), the management server 203 (control means 203d) controls the key 104a of the entrance 104 of the authentication room 100 to unlock the key 104a of the entrance 104 (step S39). Also, the management server 203 (control means 203d) controls the key 105a of the exit 105 of the authentication room 100 to lock the key 105a of the exit 105 (step S40).

[0064] Next, a hardware configuration example of the management server 203 (information processing device) described in the above-described Embodiment 2 will be described. FIG. 11 is a block diagram showing a hardware configuration example of the management server 203.

[0065] As shown in FIG. 11, the management server 203 is an information processing device such as a server including a processor 80, a memory 81, a storage device 82, etc. The server may be a physical machine or a virtual machine.

[0066] The processor 80 functions as the entrance passage number acquisition means 203a, the authentication success number counting means 203b, the exit passage number acquisition means 203c, and the control means 203d by executing software (computer program) read from a memory 81 such as a RAM. These functions may be implemented on a single server or distributed and implemented on multiple servers. Even in the case of being distributed and implemented on multiple servers, the processing of each of the above flowcharts can be realized by the multiple servers communicating with each other via a communication line (for example, the Internet). Note that some or all of these functions may be realized by hardware.

[0067] The processor 80 may be, for example, a microprocessor, an MPU (Micro Processing Unit), or a CPU (Central Processing Unit). The processor may include a plurality of processors.

[0068] The memory 81 is composed of a combination of volatile memory and non-volatile memory. The memory may include storage arranged separately from the processor. In this case, the processor may access the memory via an I / O interface (not shown).

[0069] The storage device 82 is, for example, a hard disk device.

[0070] In the example of FIG. 11, the memory is used to store a group of software modules. The processor can perform the processing of the management server 203 etc. described in the above embodiments by reading out and executing these software modules from the memory.

[0071] As described above, according to Embodiment 2, it is possible to effectively prevent piggybacking to an important area.

[0072] This is because, by using the authentication room 100 having the entrance 104 with the key 104a and the exit 105 with the key 105a, and the control means 203d for controlling the locked states of the key 104a of the entrance 104 and the key 105a of the exit 105, the entry and exit to the authentication room 100 are restricted.

[0073] Next, a modified example will be described.

[0074] FIG. 12 is a modified example of the information processing system 1 (piggybacking prevention system). Hereinafter, it will be referred to as the information processing system 1A.

[0075] The information processing system 1A of this modified example corresponds to the one obtained by replacing the entrance 104 (key 104a) of the information processing system 1 of the above-described Embodiment 2 with the first flapper gate 104b and replacing the exit 105 (key 105a) with the second flapper gate 105b. The first flapper gate 104b is another example of the first security device of the present invention. The second flapper gate 105b is another example of the second security device of the present invention.

[0076] The operation example of the information processing system 1A of this modified example is the same as the operation example (Figs. 6 to 10) of the information processing system 1 of the above-described Embodiment 2.

[0077] However, in this modified example, the operation of the control means 203d is different.

[0078] That is, in step S16A of this modified example, the control means 203d controls not the key 104a of the entrance 104 to lock the key 104a of the entrance 104, but controls the first flapper gate 104b to close the first flapper gate 104b.

[0079] Similarly, in this modified example, in step S21, the control means 203d controls not the key 104a of the entrance 104 to unlock the key 104a of the entrance 104, but controls the first flapper gate 104b to open the first flapper gate 104b.

[0080] Similarly, in this modified example, in step S33, the control means 203d controls not the key 105a of the exit 105 to unlock the key 105a of the exit 105, but controls the second flapper gate 105b to open the second flapper gate 105b. Thereby, the exit of the authenticated person from the authentication room (authentication area) is permitted.

[0081] Similarly, in this modified example, the control means 203d does not control the key 104a of the entrance 104 to unlock the key 104a of the entrance 104 in step S39, but controls the first flapper gate 104b to open the first flapper gate 104b.

[0082] Similarly, in this modified example, the control means 203d does not control the key 105a of the exit 105 to lock the key 105a of the exit 105 in step S40, but controls the second flapper gate 105b to close the second flapper gate 105b.

[0083] In addition, in the above-described second embodiment, an example has been described in which the video analysis server 202 counts the number of entrance passers (or exit passers) by executing a predetermined process on the video transmitted from the first stereo camera 101 (or the second stereo camera 102), but the present invention is not limited to this.

[0084] For example, the number of people present in the authentication room may be counted by a pressure sensor installed under the floor of the authentication room 100 or the like. As the pressure sensor, for example, those described in https: / / news.mynavi.jp / article / 20181119-726753 / or https: / / www.vstone.co.jp / products / sensor_network / index.html can be used.

[0085] Also, the number of people present in the authentication room 100 may be counted by a 3D-LiDAR installed at an appropriate location in the authentication room 100. As a technique for counting the number of people using 3D-LiDAR, for example, those described in https: / / www.fanbright.jp / service / 3dlidar / can be used.

[0086] In addition, in the above-described second embodiment, an example has been described in which face authentication performed by a face authentication server is used as authentication based on biometric information of an authentication target person, but the present invention is not limited to this.

[0087] For example, for authentication based on the biometric information of the person to be authenticated, other biometric authentications such as fingerprint authentication, iris authentication, skeleton authentication, and vein authentication may be used, or authentication using an ID card such as an employee ID card may be used. These may be used alone or in combination.

[0088] In the above example, the program can be stored using various types of non-transitory computer readable media and supplied to a computer. Non-transitory computer readable media include various types of tangible storage media. Examples of non-transitory computer readable media include magnetic recording media (such as flexible disks, magnetic tapes, and hard disk drives), magneto-optical recording media (such as magneto-optical disks). Further, examples of non-transitory computer readable media include CD-ROM (Read Only Memory), CD-R, and CD-R / W. Further, examples of non-transitory computer readable media include semiconductor memories. Semiconductor memories include, for example, mask ROM, PROM (Programmable ROM), EPROM (Erasable PROM), flash ROM, and RAM (Random Access Memory). Also, the program may be supplied to the computer by various types of transitory computer readable media. Examples of transitory computer readable media include electrical signals, optical signals, and electromagnetic waves. The transitory computer readable media can supply the program to the computer via wired communication channels such as electric wires and optical fibers, or wireless communication channels.

[0089] Note that the present disclosure is not limited to the above embodiments, and can be appropriately changed without departing from the gist. Also, the present disclosure may be implemented by appropriately combining the respective embodiments.
