Abstract
A monitoring server of a platform-side monitoring system analyzes an image taken by a plurality of platform monitoring cameras installed on a platform, and transmits information on the results of detection to a car-side monitoring system in the case where an object of attention is detected from the image. A control unit of the car-side monitoring system allows the monitor to display an image taken by the car camera which corresponds to the platform monitoring camera that has taken an image of the object of attention in a mode that is different from that of the images taken by the other car cameras on the basis of the information on the results of detection that has been received from the platform-side monitoring system.
Claims7
An image display system for displaying an image of a side of a car of a train at a station platform, comprising:
- a car-side monitoring system including a plurality of car cameras attached to cars of a train and a monitor for displaying an image taken by a selected car camera;
- and
- a platform-side monitoring system including a plurality of platform monitoring cameras installed on a station platform, and an image analysis unit which analyzes an image taken by a selected platform monitoring camera and transmits, in a case where an object of attention is detected from the analyzed image, information on the results of detection to the car-side monitoring system,
- wherein the car-side monitoring system further comprises a display control unit configured to cause the monitor to display the image taken by the selected car camera that corresponds to the selected platform monitoring camera which has taken the image of the object of attention in a mode that is different from that of the images taken by the other car cameras on the basis of the information on the results of detection that has been received from the platform-side monitoring system.
An image display method for displaying an image of a side of a car of a train at a station platform, the method comprising:
- connecting a car-side monitoring system for allowing a monitor within a train to display images taken by a plurality of car cameras attached to cars of the train and a platform-side monitoring system for analyzing images taken by a plurality of platform monitoring cameras installed on the platform so as to be mutually and wirelessly communicable;
- transmitting, by the platform-side monitoring system, in a case where an object of attention is detected from an image taken by a selected platform monitoring camera, information on the results of detection to the car-side monitoring system;
- and
- controlling, based on the information on the results of defection received from the platform-side monitoring system, the car-side monitoring system to cause the monitor to display an image taken by a selected car camera that corresponds to the selected platform monitoring camera that has taken the image of the object of attention in a mode that is different from that of the images taken by the other car cameras.
