Image Data Linking With Shooting Plans for Multi-Camera Reporting
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems struggle to efficiently link image data captured by multiple cameras to corresponding reporting plans, requiring manual effort to associate the data with multiple shooting plans.
Innovation Solution
An electronic apparatus and information processing system that acquires, links, and transmits image data with shooting plans, including a reporting plan acquisition unit, shooting unit, linking unit, and transmission unit, enabling efficient management and communication of shooting information.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If video data is imported from a camera into a reporting support apparatus and linked with the reporting plan based on data correspondence (camera manufacturing ID, shooting time, shooting location), then the video data and reporting plan can be linked, but the process becomes complicated when a plurality of interviews are conducted using one camera
Solution Approach 1:
The system embeds reporting plan information into image data at the time of shooting, so that the linking information is prepared in advance during the shooting process itself. This eliminates the need for complex post-shooting matching processes, especially when multiple interviews are conducted with one camera, as each image data packet already contains its associated reporting plan identifier.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an embedding unit that acts as an intermediary between the reporting plan information and the image data. This embedding unit inserts reporting plan identifiers directly into the image data during shooting, serving as a mediator that automatically establishes the link without requiring complex manual or automated matching processes later.
2Reliability
If manual linking of image data and reporting plans is performed, then accurate association can be achieved, but the photographer is required to take time to link the image data and the reporting plans
Solution Approach 1:
Reporting plan information is embedded into image data at the time of shooting, so the linking is performed preliminarily during the shooting process itself. This eliminates the need for separate post-shooting linking operations, thereby saving time while maintaining accuracy through automated embedding.
Solution Approach 2:
The image data automatically contains embedded reporting plan information through the embedding unit, making the linking process self-service. The image data itself carries its own identification information, eliminating the need for external manual linking operations and significantly reducing the time required.
3Productivity
If shooting is performed according to predetermined shooting plans, then organized data capture is achieved, but the system cannot efficiently link the captured image data back to the shooting plans when multiple plans are involved
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary embedding of shooting plan information into image data during the shooting process. This allows organized data capture according to predetermined shooting plans while automatically maintaining the association, eliminating the need for complex post-processing to link data back to plans.
Solution Approach 2:
The embedding unit serves as an intermediary that automatically links shooting plan information with captured image data in real-time. This mediator function maintains ease of operation by handling the association automatically, allowing photographers to focus on shooting while the system manages the data linking.
