Abstract
A monitoring system in which a mounting device of a moving body and a monitoring center device are connected via a communication network, wherein the mounting device includes a photographing unit configured to photograph a passenger, and a feature transmission unit configured to transmit feature data of the passenger, and the monitoring center device includes a monitoring processing unit which determines whether the feature data is recorded in a database and performs monitoring processing on the basis of a result of the determination.
Claims12
A monitoring system comprising:
- a mounting device of a moving body;
- and
- a monitoring center device connected to the mounting device via a communication network, wherein
- the monitoring center device is configured to:
- receive feature data of a passenger of the moving body from the mounting device;
- determine whether the received feature data matches one of features registered in a first feature database;
- determine whether the received feature data matches one of features registered in a second feature database;
- and
- transmit a determination result generated on the basis of the determination to the mounting device,
- the mounting device is configured to:
- execute photographing a passenger of the moving body;
- transmit feature data of the passenger in a face image generated by the photographing to the monitoring center device;
- and
- receive the determination result from the monitoring center device, and
- when the determination result indicates the feature data does not match any features registered in the first feature database in which a starting permission of the moving body is output if the feature data matches any features, and indicates the feature data does not match any features registered in the second feature database in which the face image of the passenger is transmitted to the monitoring center device if the feature data matches any features,
- the mounting device transmits the face image of the passenger generated by the photographing to the monitoring center device even though the feature data does not match any features registered in the second feature database,
- the monitoring center device, after receiving the face image from the mounting device, registers the received face image and the feature data to a third feature database and transmits a monitoring completion signal to the mounting device, and
- the mounting device, in response to the reception of the monitoring completion signal, controls starting of the moving body even though the feature data does not match any features registered in the first feature database.
A monitoring method for a monitoring center device connected to a mounting device of a moving body via a communication network, wherein the mounting device executes photographing a passenger of the moving body, transmits feature data of the passenger to the monitoring center device, the monitoring method comprising:
- receiving feature data of a passenger of the moving body from the mounting device;
- determining whether the received feature data matches one of features registered in a first feature database;
- determining whether the received feature data matches one of features registered in a second feature database;
- causing, when the feature data does not match any features registered in the first feature database in which a starting permission of the moving body is output if the feature data matches any features, and the feature data does not match any features registered in the second feature database in which the face image of the passenger is transmitted to the monitoring center device if the feature data matches any features, the mounting device to transmit a face image of the passenger generated by the photographing even though the feature data does not match any features registered in the second feature database, by transmitting a determination result indicating that the feature data does not match either any features registered in the first feature database or the second feature database;
- and
- registering, after receiving the face image from the mounting device, the received face image and the feature data to a third feature database and transmitting a monitoring completion signal to the mounting device, in order to cause the mounting device to control starting of the moving body in response to the reception of the monitoring completion signal even though the feature data does not match any features registered in the first feature database.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program that causes a computer mounted on a moving body to perform processes, the computer being connected to a mounting device via a communication network, wherein the mounting device executes photographing a passenger of the moving body, transmits feature data of the passenger to a monitoring center device, the performing processes comprising:
- receiving feature data of a passenger of the moving body from the mounting device;
- determining whether the received feature data matches one of features registered in a first feature database;
- determining whether the received feature data matches one of features registered in a second feature database;
- causing, when the feature data does not match any features registered in the first feature database in which a starting permission of the moving body is output if the feature data matches any features, and the feature data does not match any features registered in the second feature database in which a face image of the passenger is transmitted to the monitoring center device if the feature data matches any features, the mounting device to transmit the face image of the passenger generated by the photographing even though the feature data does not match any features registered in the second feature database, by transmitting a determination result indicating that the feature data does not match either any features registered in the first feature database or the second feature database;
- and
- registering, after receiving the face image from the mounting device, the received face image and the feature data to a third feature database and transmitting a monitoring completion signal to the mounting device, in order to cause the mounting device to control starting of the moving body in response to the reception of the monitoring completion signal even though the feature data does not match any features registered in the first feature database.
