The clock controller 30 is composed of a CPU, a RAM, a ROM, a storage device such as a hard disk device, and a computer equipped with an input / output interface, etc., and transmits current time information to the capture server 12 and the reception recording device 22 in a timely manner. However, the internal time of both clock functions is corrected.

  The ID server 40 manages the recording card 26 issued to visitors. Specifically, the ID assigned to each recording card 26 is recorded in order to distinguish the recording cards 26 that emit light to visitors. Further, the movement history information is read from the recording card 26 presented by the visitor who has finished using the attraction.

  The ID server 40 includes a computer having a CPU, a RAM, a ROM, a storage device such as a hard disk device, an input / output interface, and the like. The ID server 40 also has a reading function for reading movement history information recorded from the recording card 26.

  In this embodiment, a visitor who has finished using an attraction presents the recording card 26, and is handled as an instruction to create edited moving image data, which will be described later. The ID server 40 that has received the presentation of the recording card 26 transmits the read movement history information to the edit server 50 together with the ID.

  The ID managed by the ID server 40 and given to the recording card 26 is used for the convenience of storage management and provision of edited moving image data, which will be described later. (Moving image data recording means) This is not required for recording moving image data by the moving image data by the moving image recording means 12 and moving history information recording by the moving history recording means comprising the gate antenna 20 and the reception recording device 22.

In order to receive the transmission of history information, these servers 12 and 40 are connected by signal cables or the like.

  In this embodiment, as described above, presenting the recording card 26 to the ID server 40 is a request for creating edited moving image data by a visitor. Therefore, a visitor who does not want the edited moving image data may not present the recording card 26. If a charge for this service is generated by an instruction to create edited moving image data, there is an advantage that a wasteful expense can be suppressed for a visitor who does not want edited moving image data. In addition, since it is possible to avoid creation of edited moving image data that is not required, the workload on the system side can be reduced.

  When the recording card 26 is presented to the ID server 40, the movement history information is transmitted from the ID server 40 to the editing server 50, and the editing server 50 discloses the creation of edited moving image data.

  FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram of an example of creation of edited moving image data in the edit server. In this figure, the movement history information expresses the time when the horizontal axis passes through each gate antenna with the gate number as the gate number.

  In this example, as shown in FIG. 2, for example, during the time period from the passage time of gate number ANT-0 to the passage time of ANT-1, the visitor (cart 24) takes a picture of camera 10 with camera number CAM-1. Present in area 11. The visitor exists in the photographing area 11 of the camera 10 with the camera number CAM-2 during the time period from the passage time of the gate number ANT-1 to the passage time of the ANT-2. Therefore, in this example, the time when the visitor (cart 24) recorded as the movement history information passes through each gate antenna, that is, the time when the visitor moves to the imaging area 11 of the next camera 10. A series of time-sequential series of edited moving image data is created by sequentially cutting and connecting the moving image data captured by the cameras CAM-1 to CAM-6.

  In preparation of an edited moving image in the edit server, a prepared image prepared in advance is inserted into the opening and ending of the edited moving image data. Further, in this embodiment, as information accompanying the shooting, each zone of the course 15 divided by each gate antenna 20... An image obtained by visualizing various data such as each running time is also inserted into the edited moving image data.

  The creation of the edited moving image data in the edit server 50 is not limited to the above method, and the arrangement order of the moving image data may be changed each time editing is performed. In addition, video data with different camera angles shot by different cameras at the same time can be arranged in time series in the edited video data, or the edited video data screen can be divided into multiple screens and displayed in parallel on each divided screen (multiple (Angle editing). Further, the same moving image data may be repeated or slow motion may be performed for a specific time (a decisive moment or the like).

  The edit server 50 transmits the created edited moving image data together with the ID of each edited moving image data to the picture server 60 that stores and stores the edited edited moving image data.

  The picture server 60 stores and manages the edited moving image data created by the edit server (moving image data editing means) 50. The picture server 60 is composed of a CPU, a RAM, a ROM, a storage device such as a hard disk device, and a computer equipped with an input / output interface, and is connected by a signal cable or the like to receive transmission of edited moving image data from the edit server 50. Yes.

  FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram of edited moving image data stored in the picture server. Each edited moving image data is stored together with its ID, and the saved edited moving image data is output based on a request from the media creation device 70 or the like. Further, the picture server 60 deletes the edited moving image data when a certain storage period has elapsed.

  The media creation device 70 records edited moving image data on a moving image recording medium (media) having portability and provides it to a visitor. This media creation device 70 functions as data providing means.

  The media creation device 70 receives the media creation request from the visitor together with the ID for specifying the edited movie data, reads the edited movie data stored in the picture server 60, and stores it on various movie recording media (media). Output (write).

  Examples of the moving image recording medium (media) include a video tape, a writable disc such as a DVD + R, a memory card, and the like prepared in advance by the system management side. The moving image recording medium may be brought by a visitor. In addition, the edited moving image data is transferred to a mobile phone or a mobile computer owned by the visitor so that the edited moving image data is written using the internal storage means such as a RAM or a hard disk provided therein as a moving image recording medium. Good.

  The web server 80 provides edited moving image data to a visitor via the Internet. The web server 80 functions as data providing means.

  The web server 80 is configured by a computer having a CPU, a RAM, a ROM, a storage device such as a hard disk device, an input / output interface, and the like, and receives edited moving image data from the picture server 60 and stores it. When a distribution request is received from a visitor who has instructed the creation of edited video data in advance together with an ID via the Internet by a personal computer or a mobile phone, the stored edited video data is distributed via the Internet. It is like that.

  Next, various operations of the moving image shooting system configured as described above will be described.

  FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing a procedure for recording movement history information.

  As described above, the movement history information is recorded when each visitor uses the go-kart attractions targeted by this system.

  A visitor who uses this attraction first receives a recording card (recording medium) 26 for recording movement history information from the system side (step S10), and the visitor (driver) makes a cart (moving body) 24. When boarding (step S12), the recording card 26 is attached to the reception recording device 22 of the cart 24 by the visitor (step S14).

  When the visitor starts driving the cart 24 (step S16), it is repeatedly determined whether or not the reception recording device 22 of the cart 24 has passed through the gate depending on whether or not a signal from the gate antenna 20 is received (step S16). If the signal is received, the passage through the gate is recognized (YES in step S18).

  Then, the reception recording device 22 records the passed gate number and the passage time on the recording card 26 as the movement history information from the identification number included in the received signal and the time obtained from the clock function of the reception recording device 22 (Step). S20).

  If the passed gate number indicates the start / goal line and the predetermined number of laps is completed, it is determined that the goal has passed (YES in step S22), and if the goal has not yet passed (NO in step S22) ), The determination regarding the gate passage (steps S18 and S20) is repeatedly performed.

  If the goal is passed (YES in step S22), the visitor finishes driving by driving the cart 26 to a predetermined getting-off position (step S24), and takes out the recording card 26 from the reception recording device 22 and gets off (step S24). S26), the use of a series of attractions is terminated.

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing a procedure for creating edited moving image data.

  As described above, the edited moving image data is created by a visitor who has finished using the attraction instruction to create edited moving image data.

  A visitor who has finished using the attraction and desires to create edited moving image data presents the recording card 26 to the ID server 40 and instructs the creation of edited moving image data (step S30).

  The ID server 40 that has received the presentation of the recording card 26 reads the movement history information and the ID recorded on the presented recording card 26 (step S32), and transmits them to the editing server 50 (step S34).

  The edit server 50 that has received the movement history information and the ID captures the opening image from the preparation video (step S36), and then based on the visitor's position and the time included in the movement history information, the capture server 12 In the moving image data recorded in the above, the capturing of moving image data shot by the corresponding camera 10 is started (step S38).

  If the shooting time of the moving image data being captured is the next time of the movement history information (YES in step S40), edit server 50 determines whether or not the movement history information has ended (step S42) and ends. If not (NO in step S42), the moving image data to be captured is switched to the moving image data of the next camera indicated by the movement history information (step S44), and the capturing of the moving image data is continued.

  If the movement history information has been completed (YES in step S42), various data videos such as lap time data are created and captured based on the movement history information (step S46), and an ending image is captured from the preparatory video (step S46). S48).

  Then, the edit server 50 transmits the series of image data thus created to the picture server 60 as edited image data corresponding to the ID instructed by the ID server 40 (step S50), and the picture server 60 transmits the edited image data. (Step S52), the creation of a series of edited moving image data ends.

  FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing a procedure for distributing edited moving image data.

  As described above, the distribution of the edited moving image data is performed when a visitor who has instructed the creation of the edited moving image data requests the distribution of the edited moving image data from the personal computer or mobile phone via the Internet.

  In the distribution of the edited moving image data, the edited moving image data stored in the picture server 60 is transferred to the web server 80 and stored on the web server 80 prior to distribution to the visitor (step S60).

  The web server 80 waits for a distribution request from a visitor (NO in step S62), and if there is a distribution request (YES in step S62), collation of an ID for specifying the edited video data included in the distribution request is performed. (Step S64). If the ID is not appropriate (NO in step S64), the process returns to waiting for a distribution request again.

  If the ID is appropriate (YES in step S64), the edited moving image data corresponding to this ID is distributed (step S66).

  Further, the web server 80 determines whether or not a predetermined storage period has elapsed (step S68). If it is within the storage period (NO in step S68), the edited video data is continuously stored and a distribution request is made again. Return to wait. If the predetermined storage period has elapsed (YES in step S68), the edited moving image data is discarded (step S70), and the distribution processing of the edited moving image data ends.

  According to the above moving image shooting system according to the first embodiment, the movement history information for each visitor is recorded on the recording card (recording medium) 26 that moves together with each visitor. Therefore, it is not necessary to identify each visitor individually, and a moving image edited for each visitor can be created with a simple configuration.

  Further, since the movement history information is recorded on the recording card (recording medium) 26 for each visitor, the load on the system side can be reduced even when the movement history information of a plurality of visitors is recorded at the same time. it can. For example, even when a plurality of visitors pass through the same position at close timing, for example, when two moving bodies (carts) are running side by side, the movement history of each visitor (mobile body) Since it is recorded by the reception recording device of each mobile body, the movement history can be recorded reliably without increasing the load on each reception recording device.

  Moreover, based on the signal from the transmitter installed in the facility, the movement history information can be accurately recorded.

  In addition, since the reception recording device 22 is attached to the cart (moving body) 24, the movement history information of the visitor who travels on the cart 24 without moving the visitor with the reception recording device 22 is required. Can be recorded.

  Moreover, since each gate antenna (transmitter) 20 ... transmits a signal including identification information, the reception recording device 22 can reliably determine which gate antenna 20 ... has received the signal.

In addition, since the clock functions of the capture server (moving image data recording means) 12 and the reception recording device 22 of the movement history recording means are synchronized with each other by the time controller 30,
It is possible to eliminate time lag included in the moving image data recorded by the capture server 12 and the movement history information recorded by the reception recording device 22, and to create appropriate edited moving image data.

  Further, since the movement history information is recorded only on the recording card (recording medium) 26, and this recording card 26 is carried by the visitor, the movement history information can be managed more appropriately at each visitor. . For example, if each visitor does not want to see travel history information by others, the facility operator will not be aware unless the visitor himself / herself presents the record card 26 to be carried to the system side. .

  In addition, the edit server (moving image data editing means) 50 receives the instruction from the visitor and starts creating the edited moving image data. Therefore, the editing server 50 can create the edited moving image data only for the instructing visitor. Can be reduced.

  Further, since the media creation device 60 and the web server 80 for providing the edited moving image data to the visitor are provided, the edited moving image data can be provided to the visitor by various means.

  Also, the gate antennas (transmitters) 20... Installed at various locations in the facility need only transmit a signal having no change including identification information that can identify each gate antenna 20, and need to communicate information with the outside. Therefore, an extremely simple system can be constructed. Further, if the transmitter is provided with a solar cell, power distribution to the transmitter can be made unnecessary.
