Object display system, management apparatus, and object display method for identifying an estimated position of an object apparatus

A management apparatus comprising:

• a memory that stores a set of instructions;
• and
• a processor configured to execute the set of instructions to:
• receive an object apparatus identifier from a terminal apparatus transmitting the object apparatus identifier via an communication network, the object apparatus identifier identifying an object apparatus which is an originating apparatus selected from originating apparatuses each sending signals representing object identifiers in response to reception of the object identifiers, the object identifiers each being capable of distinguishing the object apparatuses to which the object identifiers are assigned in a predetermined region;
• generate an object identifier assigned to the object apparatus identified by the object apparatus identifier;
• transmit the generated object identifier to the object apparatus via the communication network;
• further transmit the object identifier to the terminal apparatus via the communication network, wherein
• the terminal apparatus captures a video, detects the signal representing the object identifier on the basis of a sensing result by a sensor which senses the signal in response to reception of the object identifier via the communication network, identifies, as an estimated position of the object apparatus, a part in which the signal detected is sent in the video captured, and outputs the video in which a mark is provided on the part identified,
• the object apparatus is selected from originating apparatuses each of which is configured to receive an identifier via the communication network and to send a signal representing the received identifier, and
• the processor further configured to execute the set of instructions to select a support apparatus from the originating apparatuses on the basis of positions of the originating apparatuses, the positions being stored in apparatus information storage.

An object display method comprising:

• generating an object identifier capable of discriminating an object apparatus in a predetermined region, and assign the object identifier to the object apparatus;
• transmitting the generated object identifier to the object apparatus via a communication network, the object apparatus being configured to receive the object identifier via the communication network and send a signal representing the received object identifier;
• detecting, as an object signal the signal representing the object identifier transmitted to the object apparatus on the basis of on a sensing result by a sensor detecting the signal, the object signal being a signal to be sent by the object apparatus;
• identifying an origination region from which the object signal is sent in a captured video;
• outputting a video in which a mark is provided on the origination region specified in the video, wherein
• the object apparatus is selected from originating apparatuses each of which is configured to receive an identifier via the communication network and to send a signal representing the received identifier, and
• the object display method further comprises selecting a support apparatus from the originating apparatuses on the basis of positions of the originating apparatuses, the positions being stored in apparatus information storage.
