Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a 3D surveillance and internet monitoring device that is easy to operate and can be installed anywhere thanks to an all-weather imaging unit and a lightweight, easily set-up packaged storage box, and that is equipped with a motion sensor function and enables remote monitoring via the internet. [Background technology]
[0002] The abnormal weather of the past few years, with heavy rains and strong winds, has caused repeated damage to Japan's quays and bays, which are surrounded by the sea, and this has led to an increase in revetment construction and dredging work in bays throughout the country. Of the 52 maritime accidents that occurred between 2008 and 2013, collisions between fishing boats and recreational boats and work vessels such as dredgers, pile drivers, soil transporters, tugboats, and push boats, which are used exclusively for these construction works, accounted for 23% of the total (according to data from the Second Regional Coast Guard Headquarters). For this reason, visual surveillance is carried out by onboard fishing boats and other vessels stationed around the work vessels, but the challenge is that it is not possible to deploy these vessels during the fishing season, even with the high daily wages and fishing boat rental fees. Additionally, on-site offices and headquarters management departments are often located far from construction sites, and surveillance cameras are used to check the status of the construction site, but the weak radio waves used to transmit the images to remote offices can only transmit over a distance of around 100m, and while gigahertz communication bands allow for long-distance transmission, the transmitter and receiver must be facing each other, and there is the issue of transmission being impossible if there are obstacles such as buildings or mountains between the transmitter and receiver.On the other hand, with the development of digital technology, there are many web cameras on the market that can be easily connected to the Internet, and they are being used in construction work, but they do not have rain protection or zoom functions such as wide-angle or telephoto, so it cannot be said that they are accurately capturing images of the work site.
[0003] It was difficult to equip high-performance industrial surveillance cameras with internet communication equipment, as it required specialized knowledge and skills. Furthermore, the construction work required a period of several months to a year at most, and many people wanted to rent or lease the equipment only for the construction period. There was also a demand for a motion sensor suitable for this type of work that would automatically detect any moving objects approaching the work site and output an alarm trigger to alert the worker. There was also a need for clear live video monitoring simultaneously from multiple locations, such as remote headquarters management departments and on-site offices, as this would help prevent accidents. There was also a strong demand for the development of a device that was inexpensive, easy to operate, and portable for on-site workers. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] (1) To capture images of outdoor work sites using a webcam that can be easily connected to the Internet, it is necessary to adapt to changes in the natural environment, such as wind, rain, and temperature. For example, one option is to install the webcam in an all-weather camera housing, but there are currently no all-weather camera housings for webcams available on the market. Furthermore, since the lens is fixed, it does not have wide-angle or telephoto zoom capabilities, making it difficult to monitor with the optimal angle of view. Furthermore, there are many challenges, such as the lack of an automatic lens aperture function, which makes it difficult to ensure optimal images due to sudden changes in the external light outside, such as sudden changes in brightness or darkness. (2) Some web cameras are equipped with motion sensor functions and can be used to automatically detect moving objects approaching the work site, but their original specifications are intended to detect intruders indoors, and they are difficult to use outdoors unless they are equipped with measures to prevent false alarms, as they may trigger false alarms due to changes in external light, rain, snow, birds, or small animals.In addition, although the motion sensor function of web cameras senses over a surface, they do not have the ability to set lines to indicate danger zones for approaching work boats, making them difficult to use in this construction project. (3) To select an industrial camera with superior functionality compared to a webcam, you must choose the pixel count, minimum subject illumination, auto iris function, and varifocal lens that can be manually adjusted from wide-angle to telephoto. You must also prepare a weatherproof camera housing that connects the camera and lens with a mount and protects the camera and lens. The housing must also be equipped with a pan head for adjusting the housing forward, backward, left, and right, and a mounting bracket for securing it to a single pipe or other object. You must also prepare a dedicated coaxial cable of the appropriate size for the distance to connect the camera's video signal to a monitor TV or motion sensor. To connect to the monitor TV, motion sensor, or Internet, you must select dedicated equipment and adjust the power voltage and video signal. You must also prepare a station or shed to house all of this equipment. Industrial cameras have traditionally been avoided because they require specialized knowledge and skills, including extensive technical research, to be used optimally. For example, you must first research your carrier (Docomo, au, or Softbank) and complete registration and payment before you can connect. (4) To optimize 3D monitoring using industrial cameras, the camera and lens are important, but the motion sensor must have functions that are suited to outdoor work sites, such as the ability to set the size and speed of moving objects to prevent false alarms. These are specialized functions that cannot be procured commercially, so they must be developed and manufactured in-house, and possessing the necessary technology is a challenge. (5) To capture images of work sites such as the relevant coastal construction work, the imaging unit must be installed in the optimal position, and the station or shed housing video equipment such as monitor televisions and communications equipment for remote monitoring must be manually transported to the optimal location, requiring a lightweight and easily portable design. While commercially available portable security boxes or storage sheds are conceivable, they must be prepared according to the size of the equipment, and if several people are required to carry them depending on their weight, the cost increases. To ensure that the minimum number of personnel required is one, the total weight of the equipment must be within the range of 10 to 20 kg, including storage. To achieve this, there are challenges, such as selecting compact equipment and making it lightweight and portable. (6) Public works projects such as this one tend to last less than one year due to annual budget constraints, and optimal system equipment using industrial cameras is expensive, making it difficult to recover the investment if the construction period is less than one year. This is another issue, as there are many requests for rental or leasing only for the duration of the construction. We must work to resolve the above issues. [Means for solving the problem]

[0015] The following examples are given to illustrate the 3D surveillance and internet surveillance device of the present invention. The following will be described in detail with reference to drawings, photographs and tables. [Example]
[0016] In Figure 1, a high-performance industrial CCD camera E and a varifocal lens F are connected with a CS mount G, and 3D monitoring (also known as stereoscopic monitoring, but referred to as 3D monitoring in this case) is performed by capturing images of the front and side of the workboat 0 using No. 1 imaging unit 1A housed in an all-weather camera housing B and No. 2 imaging unit 2A with the same specifications, and the video signal is connected via No. 1 coaxial cable 7A and No. 2 coaxial cable 7B to No. 1 motion sensor board 6A and No. 2 motion sensor board 6B housed in a lightweight aluminum storage box 3, via terminal block 3D.
[0017] The two boards are set using the No. 1 motion sensor setting button 3Aa and No. 2 motion sensor setting button 3Ab on the operation panel 3A. During setting, the monitor images are viewed on the No. 1 LCD television monitor 4A (4Aa is an enlarged screen of 4A) and the No. 2 LCD television monitor 4B (4Bb is an enlarged screen of 4b) on the inside of the top lid of the storage box 3, and the writing settings for the motion detection dots 5A and 5B are made by specifying the setting position with the cursor of the mouse 3C, and when a moving object touches the motion detection dots 5A and 5B on the two LCD monitors simultaneously, an automatic 3D surveillance alarm is sounded and an alarm signal is output.
[0018] The analog video signals from the two boards are input to No. 1 video encoder 8A and No. 2 video encoder 8B, where they are converted into digital video signals that can be connected to a mobile router 9. The mobile router 9 is then connected to an internet line 10, allowing live video to be viewed simultaneously in multiple locations via the internet line 10 on a smartphone 11A, PC 11B, or tablet 11C in a remote location.
[0019] In Figure 2, when monitoring at sea, birds such as seagulls may fly in and touch the motion detection dots 5A and 5B at the same time, causing a false alarm. Therefore, using the five setting buttons, No. 1 motion sensor setting button 3Aa and No. 2 motion sensor setting button 3Ab, it is possible to perform dot control, which specifies the size of the moving object to be detected, or sense control, which specifies the speed of the moving object to be detected.
[0020] There are 112 dots vertically and 128 dots horizontally on the LCD TV monitors 4A and 4B, for a total of 14,336 dots embedded across the entire screen, and each dot is a motion detection dot that detects moving objects, and the mouse 3C is used to call out and write or erase how many dots to place where on the screen, with the left mouse button writing a dot and the right mouse button erasing a dot that has been written. By moving the mouse up, down, left, and right, you can freely set the dots while looking at the No. 1 LCD TV monitor and the No. 2 LCD TV monitor. The setting procedure is shown in Figure 7.
[0021] In Figure 3, for 3D monitoring, the intrusion alert area is an image of workboat 0 surrounded by a rectangular box in the shape of Z, and motion detection dots 5A and 5B are drawn along the area with the mouse to set it. When a fishing boat or recreational boat Y is imaged by only one imaging unit 1A, it touches the motion detection dot, and even though it is in front of the Z rectangle and outside the alert area, a false alarm will be issued. If 3D monitoring is performed using two imaging units in the shape of 2A, Y is outside the intrusion alert area and no alarm will be issued. When Y advances to point X, it is within the area of both imaging units in the shape of Z, so motion detection dots 5A and 5B will touch it simultaneously, and a 3D monitoring alarm will be issued.
[0022] In Figure 4, the Varifocal Lens F can change the angle of view by changing the focal length of the lens. For example, with a 12mm lens, the angle of view at 1000m is 493m vertically and 990m horizontally. With a 100mm lens, the angle of view at 1000m is 39m vertically and 79m horizontally. The ability to adjust the angle of view from wide angle to zoom with a single lens is an ideal function for mobile construction sites like this one; without this function, it would be necessary to prepare several fixed-focus lenses and change lenses to suit the angle of view, which would be a tedious task.
[0023] In Figure 5, with a lens focal length of 25mm and a distance of 300m from the lens, the vertical width is 71m and the horizontal width is 35m, and the number of vertical motion detection dots is 112. Therefore, each vertical dot is approximately 69cm, meaning that a person 170cm tall would fit within two to three dots. People larger than a single motion detection dot can be detected, but people enclosed within a smaller dot cannot be detected. However, by narrowing the angle of view, people become larger and can be detected. Changing the angle of view with the varifocal lens F does not change the size or number of motion detection dots, so the more dots there are, the better the accuracy of moving object detection. As explained above, the size of fishing boats or recreational boats Y approaching the work site and their distance from the imaging unit can be calculated using Figure 4 or a formula.
[0024] In Figure 6, operation panel 3A is the same as in Photo 5, so will be explained there as well. Operation panel 3A is installed on the top surface of the main body when the top lid of storage box 3 is open, and the five motion sensor setting buttons 3Aa and 3Ab each perform the operations shown in Table 1. The button (li) that determines the menu in Table 1 shown in Figure 8 has the menu items in Table 2, and its function has already been explained in Figure 2. Power switches 3Ae and 3Af control the power of all devices in the storage box, including the imaging unit. The USB male connector at the tip of mouse 3C is connected to mouse USB female connectors 3Ac and 3Ad according to the imaging unit 1A or 2A.
[0025] In Figure 7, by operating the mouse 3 and the motion sensor setting buttons 3Aa and 3Ab, the menu settings can be controlled by turning the motion sensor ON / OFF switch OFF in Table 1, the alarm sound ON / OFF switch, the button to move up the menu, the button to move down the menu, and the button to select the menu. Once the menu is selected, the functions of the motion sensor (also referred to as the motion detection dot, but they are the same thing) can be set to suit the situation at the site using the dot control for setting the size of moving objects detected by the motion sensor in Table 2 shown in Figure 9, the sensor vector for setting the speed of moving objects detected by the motion sensor, the area control for setting the cursor display of mouse movement on the LCD screen, the effect for setting the text display on the LCD screen such as the date, time, and site name, and the return for returning to the previous screen.
[0026] Photo 1 in Figure 10 is a photograph of the storage box 3 with the top lid closed, with two handles and snap locks 3b on the front, one handle, two coaxial cables and one power cable entering from the bottom left of the front, and the cable entry hole is waterproofed to prevent rainwater and the like from entering.
[0027] In Photo 2 shown in Figure 11, the top lid of the storage box 3 is open at an angle, and LCD TV monitors 4A and 4B, an operation panel 3A, a blind cover 3B, a mouse 3C, a handle 3a, and a snap lock 3b are installed.
[0028] Photo 3 in Figure 12 shows a bird's-eye view of the storage box 3 with the top lid open and the blank cover 3B removed. The No. 1 LCD TV monitor 4A and No. 2 LCD TV monitor 4B are installed on the inside of the top lid. The two screens, arranged side-by-side to form a 3D screen, facilitate the setting of the motion detection dots 5B. The control panel is installed on the top of the main unit. The No. 1 motion sensor board 6A and No. 2 motion sensor board 6 are installed one above the other at the back right of the main unit, along with the relay circuit board 6C for 3D monitoring. The No. 1 video encoder 8A and No. 2 video encoder 8B are installed at the back center, with the mobile router 9 installed below them, and the power outlet 7D and device connection cord next to them. The terminal block 3D is installed in the center of the inside front surface of the main unit. The actual dimensions of the box in Photo 3 are 780mm wide x 380mm high x 400mm deep. The box weighs approximately 11kg with the equipment stored inside, making it easy for a single worker to carry. Handles on both sides make it easy to carry.
[0029] In Photo 4 shown in Figure 13, a mouse (the same pointing device used on a personal computer, etc.) can be moved up, down, left, and right on the LCD TV monitor, and the left switch writes motion detection dots, and the right switch erases the written motion detection dots, but the cursor display is required from the motion sensor setting button menu.
[0030] Photo 5 shown in Figure 14 is omitted as it was explained in Figure 6 above.
[0031] Photo 6 in Figure 15 is the terminal block 6. The 3Da terminal is the No. 1 motion sensor independent alarm terminal, and the 3Db terminal is the No. 2 motion sensor independent alarm terminal, which are a contact, b contact, ab contact, and com contact, respectively. They can be used to connect devices such as rotating lights, alarms, and audio alerts. The 3Dc terminal is the alarm output terminal for 3D monitoring. 3Dd connects the BNC, PIN, or M type connector of the coaxial cable video input terminal connected to the CCD camera E in the imaging unit, and 3De is the video output terminal, which can be used to view the video on a separate monitor TV or connect a recording device to record the video.
[0032] Photo 7 shown in Figure 16 shows all-weather camera housing B with anti-fogging heater C installed on the glass window, which prevents the glass from fogging up due to the temperature difference with the outside air, eliminating any obstacles to imaging. Camera platform H is a metal fitting that moves the camera up, down, left, and right, and single-pipe mounting bracket I is fixed on-site after assembling all-weather camera housing B with single pipes. It is not appropriate to use it on a tripod, as the tripod may sway or fall over in the wind.
[0033] Photo 8 in Figure 17 shows the top cover of all-weather camera housing B open. The top cover has a double structure, and there is a space between the cover and the top cover of the main body that allows air to pass through, preventing the temperature inside the main body from rising even in direct sunlight. It also prevents the temperature inside the main body from dropping in winter. Even though the top cover has a double structure, if the temperature inside the main body exceeds 40°C, the electronic components used in the CCD camera E and varifocal lens F cannot be used at their rated capacity and problems will occur, so the cooling fan D is automatically operated by a thermostat, allowing it to be used in all weather conditions. [Industrial Applicability]
[0034] The present invention can be used in the industrial field of construction safety measures by adding a motion sensor to a surveillance camera to prevent collisions between fishing boats, recreational boats, and other boats at sea and outdoor work boats, and connecting the camera to an internet line via a storage box that packages related equipment, allowing simultaneous monitoring from multiple locations.
