Imaging systems, moving bodies, and imaging control methods for remote monitoring of a moving target

An imaging system comprising:

• a management server, wherein the management server stores a table indicating a correspondence between one or more wireless tag IDs, one or more photographic targets, and a plurality of single movable bodies, wherein each single movable body is assigned to monitor at least one of the one or more photographic targets prior to receiving an imaging request;
• and
• a single movable body of the plurality of single movable bodies capable of moving in one or more dimensions configured to communicate with the management server,
• wherein the management server comprises:
• an imaging instruction unit configured to:
• refer to the table when the imaging request designating a photographic target is received from a user terminal;
• identify the one or more wireless tag IDs corresponding to the photographic target;
• identify the single movable body assigned to the photographic target using identification information corresponding to the photographic target;
• and
• transmit the one or more wireless tag IDs to the single movable body;
• and
• an image providing unit configured to associate and store the one or more wireless tag IDs and an image of the photographic target received from the single movable body;
• wherein the single movable body comprises:
• at least one wireless tag reader configured to read a wireless tag ID from a wireless tag through wireless communication;
• a position estimating unit configured to estimate a position of the photographic target based on a radio field intensity of wireless communication with the wireless tag having the wireless tag ID of the photographic target;
• an imaging unit configured to take the image of the photographic target;
• and
• a movement control unit configured to control movement of the single movable body in one or more dimensions based on inputs from the position estimating unit.
