  FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing an operation in which the security service system shown in FIG. 1 provides a security service. With reference to FIG. 5, an operation in which the crime prevention service system including the camera management server 10 provides the crime prevention service to the user who carries the portable terminal 30 and the monitor who owns the information terminal 40 will be described.

  First, the position information acquisition unit 31 of the mobile terminal 30 acquires the position information of the mobile terminal 30 (step A1). In step A1, the position information acquisition unit 31 may periodically acquire the position information of the mobile terminal 30. The terminal transmission / reception unit 32 transmits the position information of the mobile terminal 30 to the data transmission / reception unit 11 of the camera management server 10.

  The out-of-service determination unit 12 of the camera management server 10 is installed at a location closest to the mobile terminal 30 based on the position information of the mobile terminal 30 received by the data transmission / reception unit 11 and the camera information stored in the camera information DB 13. The selected monitoring camera 20 (for example, monitoring camera 20a) is selected, and the shooting area information of the monitoring camera 20a is extracted from the camera information (step A2).

  The out-of-service determining unit 12 compares the position information of the mobile terminal 30 and the shooting area information of the monitoring camera 20a, and determines whether the mobile terminal 30 exists within the shooting area of the monitoring camera 20a (step A3). .

  When the mobile terminal 30 exists within the shooting area of the monitoring camera 20a (Y in Step A3), the out-of-service determination unit 12 generates a service status notification indicating that the user is in the service area of the security service. The service status notification is transmitted from the data transmitting / receiving unit 11 to the terminal transmitting / receiving unit 32 of the portable terminal 30. The out-of-service determining unit 12 may also transmit a service status notification from the data transmitting / receiving unit 11 to the information terminal 40. The terminal transmission / reception unit 32 notifies the user of the content indicated by the received service status notification by a screen or voice (step A4). The out-of-service determining unit 12 generates action history information, stores it in the action history DB 15, and returns to Step A1.

  When the mobile terminal 30 does not exist within the shooting area of the monitoring camera 20a (N in Step A3), the out-of-service determination unit 12 confirms that the user is not in the service area of the security service, that is, is out of the service area. A service status notification is generated, and the service status notification is transmitted from the data transmitting / receiving unit 11 to the terminal transmitting / receiving unit 32 of the mobile terminal 30. The terminal transmission / reception unit 32 notifies the user of the content indicated by the received service status notification with a screen or voice (step A5). The out-of-service determining unit 12 generates action history information and stores it in the action history DB 15.

  Next, the out-of-service determination unit 12 selects the monitoring camera 20 (for example, the monitoring camera 20b) installed in the place next to the mobile terminal 30 next to the monitoring camera 30a, and sets the shooting area information of the monitoring camera 20b as camera information. (Step A6).

  The out-of-service determination unit 12 compares the position information of the mobile terminal 30 and the shooting area information of the monitoring camera 20b, and the shooting area of the monitoring camera 20b exists within a predetermined range (for example, 1 km) from the position of the mobile terminal 30. (Step A7).

  When the imaging area of the monitoring camera 20b exists within 1 km around the portable terminal 30 (Y in Step A7), the process returns to Step A1.

  When the imaging area of the monitoring camera 20b does not exist within 1 km around the mobile terminal 30 (N in Step A7), the out-of-service determination unit 12 sends a status recording application 33 from the data transmission / reception unit 11 to the terminal transmission / reception unit 32. An activation signal (AP activation signal) for activating is transmitted (step A8).

  The terminal transmission / reception unit 32 that has received the activation signal activates the situation recording application 33 (situation recording AP). The situation recording application 33 starts collecting sound by the microphone and capturing an image by the camera (step A9). The collected audio data is stored in the audio recording unit 34, and the captured image data is stored in the image recording unit 35.

  The situation recording application 33 refers to the audio recording unit 34 and the image recording unit 35, and transmits audio data and image data from the terminal transmission / reception unit 32 to the information terminal 40 at arbitrary intervals (step A10). The transmission destinations of the audio data and the image data are determined based on the transmission destination information stored in the notification destination information storage unit 36.

  Such a camera management server records the surrounding situation as audio data and image data on the mobile terminal 30 even when the user of the security service is outside the service area where monitoring by the monitoring camera 20 is not possible. Since it is made to transmit to the supervisor who owns 40, the safety | security of the user who is out of the service area of a crime prevention service can be supplemented. And by complementing the safety of users outside the service area, it can be expected to promote the improvement of the user's sense of security and improve the reliability of the crime prevention service.

  Further, such a camera management server not only transmits the surrounding situation collected as audio data and image data by the mobile terminal 30 to the information terminal 40 when the user of the crime prevention service is outside the service area, Since recording is performed in the recording unit 34 and the image recording unit 35, even if a user is involved in a crime or an accident, it can contribute to early resolution of the incident and investigation of the cause of the accident.

Embodiment 2. FIG.
FIG. 6 is a block diagram showing a configuration example of a security service system including a camera management server according to the second embodiment (second embodiment) of the present invention.

In step B1, the position information acquisition unit 31 may periodically acquire the position information of the mobile terminal 60. The terminal transmission / reception unit 32 transmits the position information of the mobile terminal 60 to the data transmission / reception unit 11 of the camera management server 10.

  The area information extraction unit 16 of the camera management server 10 determines a predetermined range from the position of the mobile terminal 30 based on the position information of the mobile terminal 60 received by the data transmission / reception unit 11 and the camera information stored in the camera information DB 13. The monitoring cameras 20a and 20b installed within are selected, and the shooting area information of the monitoring cameras 20a and 20b is extracted from the camera information. The area information extraction unit 16 causes the data transmission / reception unit 11 to transmit the extracted shooting area information of the monitoring cameras 20a and 20b to the terminal transmission / reception unit 32 (step B2). Here, it is assumed that the monitoring camera 20a is installed closer to the mobile terminal 30 than the monitoring camera 20b.

  The terminal determination unit 37 compares the position information of the mobile terminal 60 with the shooting area information of the monitoring camera 20a received by the terminal transmission / reception unit 32 from the camera management server 10, and the mobile terminal 60 detects the shooting area of the monitoring camera 20a. It is judged whether it exists in (step B3).

  When the mobile terminal 60 is present in the shooting area of the surveillance camera 20a (Y in Step B3), the terminal determination unit 37 generates a service status notification indicating that the user is within the service area of the security service. . The terminal transmission / reception unit 32 notifies the user of the content indicated by the generated service status notification using a screen or voice (step B4). Note that the terminal determination unit 37 may transmit a service status notification from the data transmission / reception unit 11 to the information terminal 40. The terminal determination unit 37 generates action history information and transmits the behavior history information from the terminal transmission / reception unit 32 to the data transmission / reception unit 11. The data transmitter / receiver 11 stores the received action history information in the action history DB 15 and returns to Step B1.

  If the portable terminal 60 is not present within the shooting area of the surveillance camera 20a (N in Step B3), the terminal determination unit 37 confirms that the user is not within the service area of the security service, that is, is outside the service area. Generate a service status notification to indicate. The terminal transmission / reception unit 32 notifies the user of the content indicated by the generated service status notification on the screen or voice (step B5). The terminal determination unit 37 generates action history information and transmits the behavior history information from the terminal transmission / reception unit 32 to the data transmission / reception unit 11. The data transmitter / receiver 11 stores the received action history information in the action history DB 15.

  Next, the out-of-service determination unit 12 compares the position information of the mobile terminal 60 with the shooting area information of the monitoring camera 20b installed next to the mobile terminal 30 next to the monitoring camera 30a. It is determined whether or not the shooting area exists within a predetermined range (for example, 1 km) from the position of the mobile terminal 60 (step B6).

  When the imaging area of the monitoring camera 20b is within 1 km around the portable terminal 60 (Y in Step B6), the process returns to Step B1.

  When the photographing area of the monitoring camera 20b does not exist within 1 km around the portable terminal 60 (N in Step B6), the terminal determination unit 37 activates the situation recording application 33 (situation recording AP). The situation recording application 33 starts collecting sound by the microphone and capturing an image by the camera (step B7). The collected audio data is stored in the audio recording unit 34, and the captured image data is stored in the image recording unit 35.
