US 10,380,422 B2 · Image monitoring system and image monitoring program

Abstract

An image monitoring system includes: recording means for recording an image captured by a camera via a network; control means for controlling the system so as to display the present image captured by the camera or a past image recorded on the recording means on display means; and moving-object detecting means for detecting a moving object from the image captured by the camera; wherein the moving-object detecting means includes resolution conversion means for generating an image with a resolution lower than the resolution of the image captured by the camera, positional-information output means for detecting a moving object from the image generated by the resolution conversion means and outputting positional information on the detected moving object, and information merging means for merging the positional information of the moving object with the image captured by the camera on the basis of the positional information of the moving object output by the positional-information output means.

Dependent claims

An image signal processing system comprising:

a low resolution image generating section configured to receive a first image having a first resolution and containing an object captured by an image capturing device spaced from the object, and to generate a second image based on the first image, the second image having a second resolution lower than the first resolution;
an object detection section configured to detect the object in the second image having the second resolution;
a position information generating section configured to process the second image to generate position information based on the second image, the position information representing a position of the object in the first image;
and
an output for generating an output state based on the detected object.
