Surveillance device, surveillance system, computer-readable medium having recorded thereon program, and method

A surveillance system comprising:

• a surveillance logic registration unit configured to register a surveillance logic, in response to receiving the surveillance logic to be executed on a surveillance device to analyze an image of a target for surveillance;
• a surveillance device registration unit configured to register at least one of the surveillance devices;
• a surveillance logic distribution unit configured to distribute, to each of the at least one surveillance device, the surveillance logic which is executed by each surveillance device;
• an execution amount receiving unit configured to receive, from each surveillance device, an execution amount of the surveillance logic in each of the at least one surveillance device;
• and
• a billing processing unit configured to perform, for each of the at least one surveillance device, billing processing in accordance with the received execution amount.

A computer-readable medium having recorded thereon a program that is executed by a computer and causes the computer to function as:

• a surveillance logic receiving unit configured to receive a surveillance logic to be executed to analyze an image of a target for surveillance;
• an image receiving unit configured to receive an image captured by a surveillance camera;
• a surveillance logic execution unit configured to execute the surveillance logic to analyze the image;
• a usage measurement unit configured to measure an execution amount of the surveillance logic executed by the surveillance logic execution unit;
• and
• an execution amount transmission unit configured to transmit the measured execution amount to a device that is configured to perform billing processing in accordance with the execution of the surveillance logic.

A computer-readable medium having recorded thereon a program that is executed by a computer and causes the computer to function as:

• a surveillance logic registration unit configured to register a surveillance logic, in response to receiving the surveillance logic to be executed on a surveillance device to analyze an image of a target for surveillance;

• and
• a billing processing unit configured to perform, for each of the at least one surveillance device, billing processing in accordance with the received execution amount.

A method comprising:

• receiving, by a surveillance device, a surveillance logic to be executed to analyze an image of a target for surveillance;
• receiving, by the surveillance device, an image captured by a surveillance camera;
• executing, by the surveillance device, the surveillance logic to analyze the image;
• measuring, by the surveillance device, an execution amount of the surveillance logic;
• transmitting, by the surveillance device, the measured execution amount to a device that is configured to perform billing processing in accordance with the execution of the surveillance logic.

A method comprising:

• registering, by a surveillance system, a surveillance logic, in response to receiving the surveillance logic to be executed on a surveillance device to analyze an image of a target for surveillance;
• registering, by the surveillance system, at least one of the surveillance devices;
• distributing, by the surveillance system, to each of the at least one surveillance device, the surveillance logic which is executed by each surveillance device;
• receiving, by the surveillance system, from each surveillance device, an execution amount of the surveillance logic in each of the at least one surveillance device;
• and
• performing, by the surveillance system, for each of the at least one surveillance device, billing processing in accordance with the received execution amount.
