Monitoring device, monitoring method, and program

Abstract

This monitoring apparatus (100) comprises: a timetable acquisition unit (102) which acquires an estimated arrival time of a public transportation means at a station for said public transportation means; and a control unit (104) which, using the acquired estimated arrival time, controls a camera installed at the station and / or the processing frequency of a first image generated by said camera.

Claims

1. A timetable acquisition means for obtaining the estimated arrival time of public transportation at a boarding / alighting point for said public transportation, A control means that controls at least one of the following using the estimated arrival time: the camera installed at the boarding / alighting station and the processing frequency of the first image generated by the camera. Equipped with, The system further includes a person determination means that processes the first image to determine whether or not the people included in the first image are a group, The control means is a monitoring device that further uses the determination result from the person determination means when determining the processing frequency.

2. A timetable acquisition means for obtaining the estimated arrival time of public transportation at a boarding / alighting point for said public transportation, A control means that controls at least one of the following using the estimated arrival time: the camera installed at the boarding / alighting station and the processing frequency of the first image generated by the camera. Equipped with, The control means is a monitoring device that increases the processing frequency as the time until the scheduled arrival time increases.

3. One or more computers, Obtain the estimated arrival time of the public transport at the boarding / alighting point for the public transport, Using the estimated arrival time, control at least one of the camera installed at the boarding / alighting station and the processing frequency of the first image generated by the camera. By processing the first image, it is determined whether or not the people included in the first image are a group. A monitoring method that, when determining the processing frequency, further uses the result of determining whether or not the people included in the first image are a group.

4. On the computer, Procedure for obtaining the estimated arrival time of public transport at a boarding / alighting point for said public transport. A procedure for controlling at least one of the following using the estimated arrival time: a camera installed at the boarding / alighting station, and the processing frequency of the first image generated by the camera. The procedure involves processing the first image to determine whether or not the people included in the first image are a group, A program that, in the control procedure described above, further uses the result of the determination procedure described above when determining the processing frequency.

5. One or more computers, Obtain the estimated arrival time of the public transport at the boarding / alighting point for the public transport, Using the estimated arrival time, control at least one of the camera installed at the boarding / alighting station and the processing frequency of the first image generated by the camera. A monitoring method that, when performing the aforementioned control, increases the processing frequency as the time until the scheduled arrival time increases.

6. On the computer, Procedure for obtaining the estimated arrival time of public transport at a boarding / alighting point for said public transport. Using the estimated arrival time, the procedure is executed to control at least one of the camera installed at the boarding / alighting station and the processing frequency of the first image generated by the camera. A program that, in the control procedure described above, increases the processing frequency as the time until the scheduled arrival time increases.
