## Abstract

Provided is a technique for enhancing operability of a mobile apparatus. An information processing apparatus (2000) includes a first processing unit (2020), a second processing unit (2040), and a control unit (2060). The first processing unit (2020) generates information indicating an event detection position in accordance with a position on a surveillance image set in a first operation. The first operation is an operation with respect to the surveillance image displayed on a display screen. The second processing unit (2040) performs a display change process with respect to the surveillance image or a window including the surveillance image. The control unit (2060) causes any one of the first processing unit (2020) and the second processing unit (2040) to process the first operation on the basis of a second operation.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A mobile surveillance apparatus comprising:
a touch panel display configured to display a surveillance image;
at least one processor configured to:
perform a first process that is to set an event detection region with respect to the surveillance image or a second process that is to change a display range of the surveillance image, in accordance with a slide operation performed with respect to the surveillance image displayed on the touch panel display; and
switch between the first process and the second process when a touch operation is performed at a plurality of places on the touch panel display in a predetermined order.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The mobile surveillance apparatus according to claim 1, wherein a rectangular region is set as the event detection region, the rectangular region being a region formed by giving a predetermined width to a line displayed on the surveillance image along a trajectory of the slide operation.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The mobile surveillance apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the event detection region is a region for detecting an object crossing thereover or a region for detecting a predetermined event relating to an object.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The mobile surveillance apparatus according to claim 1, wherein information indicating that an event is detected is displayed on the touch panel display when the event is detected in the event detection region.

### Claim 5

A mobile surveillance system comprising:
a surveillance camera; and
a mobile surveillance apparatus;
wherein the mobile surveillance apparatus comprising:
a touch panel display; and
at least one processor configured to:
display a surveillance image acquired by the surveillance camera on the touch panel display;
perform a first process that is to set an event detection region with respect to the surveillance image or a second process that is to change a display range of the surveillance image, in accordance with a slide operation performed with respect to the surveillance image displayed on the touch panel display; and
switch between the first process and the second process when a touch operation is performed at a plurality of places on the touch panel display in a predetermined order.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The mobile surveillance system according to claim 5, wherein a rectangular region is set as the event detection region, the rectangular region being a region formed by giving a predetermined width to a line displayed on the surveillance image along a trajectory of the slide operation.

### Claim 7 (depends on 5)

The mobile surveillance system according to claim 5, wherein the event detection region is a region for detecting an object crossing thereover or a region for detecting a predetermined event relating to an object.

### Claim 8 (depends on 5)

The mobile surveillance system according to claim 5, wherein information indicating that an event is detected is displayed on the touch panel display when the event is detected in the event detection region.

### Claim 9

A control method executed by a computer, comprising:
displaying a surveillance image on a touch panel display;
performing a first process that is to set an event detection region with respect to the surveillance image or a second process that is to change a display range of the surveillance image, in accordance with a slide operation performed with respect to the surveillance image displayed on the touch panel display; and
switching between the first process and the second process when a touch operation is performed at a plurality of places on the touch panel display in a predetermined order.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The control method according to claim 9, wherein a rectangular region is set as the event detection region, the rectangular region being a region formed by giving a predetermined width to a line displayed on the surveillance image along a trajectory of the slide operation.

### Claim 11 (depends on 9)

The control method according to claim 9, wherein the event detection region is a region for detecting an object crossing thereover or a region for detecting a predetermined event relating to an object.

### Claim 12 (depends on 9)

The control method according to claim 9, wherein information indicating that an event is detected is displayed on the touch panel display when the event is detected in the event detection region.

### Claim 13

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program that causes a computer to execute:
displaying a surveillance image on a touch panel display;
performing a first process that is to set an event detection region with respect to the surveillance image or a second process that is to change a display range of the surveillance image, in accordance with a slide operation performed with respect to the surveillance image displayed on the touch panel display; and
switching between the first process and the second process when a touch operation is performed at a plurality of places on the touch panel display in a predetermined order.

### Claim 14 (depends on 13)

The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 13, wherein a rectangular region is set as the event detection region, the rectangular region being a region formed by giving a predetermined width to a line displayed on the surveillance image along a trajectory of the slide operation.

### Claim 15 (depends on 13)

The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 13, wherein the event detection region is a region for detecting an object crossing thereover or a region for detecting a predetermined event relating to an object.

### Claim 16 (depends on 13)

The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 13, wherein information indicating that an event is detected is displayed on the touch panel display when the event is detected in the event detection region.
