Mobile Image Capture Control With Real-Time Steering Data Linking
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing technologies struggle to accurately record information about a steering instruction of a mobile object in real time in association with captured data by a mobile image capturing apparatus, particularly for producing high-quality drive VLOGs, as they lack precise methods to associate steering instructions with image and sound data.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus that includes a memory device and processor to obtain steering instruction information, generate corresponding data, and record it in association with captured data, using a mobile image capturing apparatus to accurately capture and store steering-related information in real time.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If steering instruction information is obtained and recorded in real time, then the accuracy of capturing steering data is improved, but the complexity of the system increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the image capturing apparatus with an information processing apparatus into an integrated system. The image capturing apparatus includes both the camera and the processing unit that obtains steering instruction information and records it together with image data, eliminating the need for separate external processing equipment and reducing overall system complexity while maintaining high measurement precision.
Solution Approach 2:
The information processing apparatus is designed to perform multiple functions: capturing images, obtaining steering instruction information from various sources (steering angle sensor, accelerator pedal sensor, brake sensor), generating comprehensive captured data that includes both image and steering information, and recording everything together. This multi-functionality reduces the need for multiple separate devices.
2Quantity of substance
If only image data determined to be necessary is recorded, then storage space is conserved, but the completeness of captured data for VLOG editing is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary classification and tagging of captured data by automatically obtaining steering instruction information (steering angle, accelerator degree, brake information) and associating it with image data before storage. This preliminary organization allows efficient retrieval and filtering during editing without needing to store redundant data, balancing storage efficiency with data completeness.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces steering instruction information as an intermediary that links image data with vehicle operation context. This intermediary metadata enables users to efficiently search and select relevant footage during editing without storing unnecessary complete raw data, achieving both storage efficiency and information completeness.

AI summary
An information processing apparatus that can accurately record information about a steering instruction of a mobile object in real time in association with captured data captured by a mobile image capturing apparatus. The information processing apparatus including a memory device that stores a set of instructions and at least one processor that executes the set of instructions to obtain steering instruction information about a mobile object with steering, generate steering-instruction related information corresponding to the steering instruction information, obtain captured data generated by an image capturing apparatus, which is mounted on a mobile image capturing apparatus, capturing an image of the mobile object; and record the captured data and the steering-instruction related information generated in association with each other whenever the captured data is obtained from the image capturing apparatus.
