Abstract
An apparatus, system, and method of remotely monitoring receives, from an operation terminal, identification information and location information of a location of one or more lamps, stores, in a memory, the received identification information and the received location information in association with each other for the one or more lamps, updates log information regarding a log of a lighting condition of the one or more lamps, in response to an indication that an electric circuit of the one or more lamps is energized for the one or more lamps, and sends monitoring information corresponding to the log information of the electric circuit of the one or more lamps for display.

1-18. (canceled)
A remote monitoring system, comprising:
- one or more lamps electrically connected to a socket for lighting;
- and
- a server communicably connected with the one or more lamps via a network,
- each lamp of the one or more lamps being configured to:
- send information to the server using electric power supplied from the lamp while the lamp is energized,
- the server being configured to:
- determine whether an energizing state of the lamp is on or off, based on the information received from the lamp while the lamp is energized;
- and
- generate status information indicating the energized state of the lamp based on a determination result.
A server communicably connectable with one or more lamps via a network, comprising:
- circuitry configured to
- receive information from each lamp of the one or more lamps, the information being transmitted from the lamp using electric power supplied from the lamp while the lamp is energized;
- determine whether an energizing state of the lamp is on or off, based on the information received from the lamp while the lamp is energized;
- and
- generate state information indicating the energized state of the lamp based on a determination result.
A method of remotely monitoring, comprising:
- receiving information from each lamp of one or more lamps, the information being transmitted from the lamp using electric power supplied from the lamp while the lamp is energized;
- determining whether an energizing state of the lamp is on or off, based on the information received from the lamp while the lamp is energized;
- and
- generating state information indicating the energized state of the lamp based on a determination result.
A remote monitoring system, comprising:
- one or more lamps electrically connected to a corresponding smart socket for lighting;
- and
- a server communicably connected with the one or more smart sockets via a network,
- each smart socket of the one or more smart sockets being configured to:
- send information to the server using electric power supplied from the smart socket while the smart socket is energized,
- the server being configured to:
- determine whether an energizing state of the smart socket is on or off, based on the information received from the smart socket while the smart socket is energized;
- and
- generate status information indicating the energized state of the smart socket based on a determination result.
A server communicably connectable with one or more smart sockets via a network, comprising:
- circuitry configured to
- receive information from each smart socket of the one or more smart sockets, the information being transmitted from the smart socket using electric power supplied from the smart socket while the smart socket is energized;
- determine whether an energizing state of the smart socket is on or off, based on the information received from the smart socket while the smart socket is energized;
- and
- generate state information indicating the energized state of the smart socket based on a determination result.
A method of remotely monitoring, comprising:
- receiving information from each smart socket of one or more smart sockets, the information being transmitted from the smart socket using electric power supplied from the smart socket while the smart socket is energized;
- determining whether an energizing state of the smart socket is on or off, based on the information received from the smart socket while the smart socket is energized;
- and
- generating state information indicating the energized state of the smart socket based on a determination result.
