Abstract
A wearable camera system includes a wearable camera, an in-car recorder, and an in-car camera. One of the in-car recorder and the wearable camera transmits video recording starting information including information indicating that video recording has been started to the other of the in-car recorder and the wearable camera when one of the in-car recorder and the wearable camera starts the video recording. The other of the in-car recorder and the wearable camera starts video recording after the video recording starting information is received.
Claims13
A wearable camera system comprising:
- a wearable camera that can be mounted on a user;
- an in-car recorder in a vehicle in which the user rides;
- and
- an in-car camera in the vehicle,
- wherein the in-car camera includes a first imaging unit that captures video,
- wherein the in-car recorder includes:
- a first communicator that performs communication with the wearable camera;
- and
- a first recorder that records first video data captured by the in-car camera,
- wherein the wearable camera includes:
- a second imaging unit that captures video;
- a second communicator that performs communication with the in-car recorder;
- a second recorder that records second video data captured by the wearable camera;
- and
- a data storage that stores video recording starting factor information linked with the second video data, the video recording starting factor information being information indicating the video recording of second video data by the second recorder of the wearable camera started in response to receiving from the in-car recorder video recording starting information including information indicating that the first recorder has started video recording of an incident attended by the user of the wearable camera, the stored video recording starting factor information capable of indicating to a user of the recorded second video data that the recording of the second video data by the second recorder of the wearable camera started in response to receiving from the in-car recorder the video recording starting information indicating that the first recorder has started video recording of an incident attended by the user of the wearable camera, the user of the camera being a police officer or a security guard,
- wherein the in-car recorder causes the first recorder to start recording of the first video data and the in-car recorder transmits the video recording starting information including information indicating that the first recorder has started video recording to the wearable camera via the first communicator, and
- wherein the wearable camera causes the second recorder to start video recording in response to reception of the video recording starting information.

A video recording control method for a wearable camera system including a wearable camera that can be mounted on a user;
- an in-car recorder that is in a vehicle in which the user rides;
- and an in-car camera which is in the vehicle, the method comprising:
- causing the in-car camera to capture video;
- causing the in-car recorder to record first video data captured by the in-car camera;
- when the in-car recorder starts recording the first video data, causing the in-car recorder to transmit to the wearable camera video recording starting information including information indicating that video recording by the in-car recorder of an incident attended by the user of the wearable camera has been started, the user of the camera being a police officer or a security guard;
- causing the wearable camera to start recording second video data in response to reception of the video recording starting information;
- and
- storing in a data storage of the wearable camera video recording starting factor information linked with the second video data, the video recording starting factor information being information indicating recording second video data by the wearable camera started in response to receiving from the in-car recorder video recording starting information including information indicating video recording by the in-car recorder of an incident attended by the user of the wearable camera has been started, the stored video recording starting factor information capable of indicating to a user of the recorded second video data that recording the second video data by the second recorder of the wearable camera started in response to receiving from the in-car recorder the video recording starting information including information indicating that the first recorder has started video recording of an incident attended by the user of the wearable camera.
