Synchronizing Moving and Fixed Camera Images by Capture Position
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems for managing image data from moving cameras, such as wearable or in-vehicle cameras, lack convenience in synchronously reproducing data with corresponding fixed camera images, requiring manual search and separate data handling.
Innovation Solution
An information processing device and method that selects and synchronously reproduces moving camera images with related fixed camera images based on capture position and time, using a network-connected system with a terminal device, server, and storage units to enhance data management convenience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual search and separate data handling are used for moving camera and fixed camera images, then data management flexibility is maintained, but user convenience and efficiency deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines moving camera data and fixed camera data into a unified management system. The server integrates both data types and enables simultaneous reproduction based on capture position and time, eliminating the need for separate manual searches and improving operational convenience while reducing time loss.
2Reliability
If fixed camera data is stored separately from moving camera data, then data organization simplicity is maintained, but data integrity and accessibility after deletion deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a server as an intermediary that manages both moving camera data and fixed camera data. The server stores reproduction destination information and coordinates data retrieval, ensuring data integrity and accessibility while maintaining a relatively simple client-side structure. This mediator approach balances reliability with system complexity.

AI summary
An information processing device includes a selection unit configured to select a second image related to a first image from images captured by a second camera based on a position where the first image is captured by a first camera, and a control unit configured to reproduce the first image and the second image based on respective capturing times thereof.
