The imaging location of this camera has been changed by rotating the camera stand with a motor. The main method is to monitor the video while on the same campus, etc.
It was controlling the camera's attitude. When implementing something similar to this via a communication line, there was a problem of video delay. For traditional telephone networks, 9600b/s
In the case of ISDN, 64k modem is used.
b/s is used. Therefore, 320×200pe
Sending a monochrome image of 8 bits/pel on a screen with a resolution of 53 seconds and 8 seconds, respectively, is required. In order to shorten this transmission time, video compression encoding is performed, but time is also required for this processing. Therefore, if the camera position is moving at a constant speed, Figure 6
As shown in the figure, the screen position seen on the receiving side and the camera position at that point are different positions, and even if you control the stop by looking at the screen, the camera stop position will be at a different position. turn into.

For this reason, it was not possible to appropriately control the position of the camera while viewing the monitoring screen.

3となる。[0008] Considering the transmission side of the monitoring system, when a certain screen is captured, it is compressed and encoded and transmitted. This process is repeated and the screens are sent one after another, but generally a single encoder is installed, and until the compression encoding of one screen is completed, processing of the next screen cannot be started. . Of course, the communication system is compatible with communication lines, and unless the transmission of a certain screen is completed, the transmission of the next screen cannot be started. Note that these circumstances are the same on the receiving side. Here, in a system where compression encoding and communication are performed in series, a time chart as shown in FIG. 3 is obtained. Now, if we focus on the nth screen, the display start time (n+1)Tc+nTt

Since Tt→0, m→n+1, and the screen that has already been input to the sending side when the stop signal is input is the screen that is one step ahead of the screen that is currently being viewed. In a system where compression encoding and communication are performed in parallel, when Tc<Tt, a time chart as shown in FIG. 4 is obtained. Now, if we focus on the nth screen, the display start time is nTt+2T
c Display end time (n+1)Tt+2T

Or it becomes n+3. When the video compression encoding method is implemented in LSI, Tc/Tt→0, so m→n+
1, and the screen that has already been input to the transmitting side when the stop signal is input is the screen that is one step ahead of the screen that is currently being viewed. In a system where compression encoding and communication are performed in parallel,

ある。That is, an image captured by the camera 1 is converted into an electrical signal by a photoelectric conversion section 2, and this signal is compressed and encoded by an encoding section 3 and sent to a communication section 4 on the transmitting side. In the communication unit 4 on the transmitting side, via the communication network 5,
The compression-encoded signal is transmitted to the communication unit 6 on the other party's receiving side. The signal received by the communication section 6 on the receiving side is compressed and expanded by the decoding section 7, and can be viewed as a video on the monitor section 8. During normal monitoring, images are continuously viewed by repeating this sequence. In such a system, in order to control the position of the camera 1, it is necessary to give an electrical signal equivalent to the amount to be changed to the attitude changing unit 9 of the camera 1. On the receiving side equipped with the monitor section 8, while viewing the image on the monitor section 8, an instruction to start moving the camera 1 or an instruction to stop the camera 1 is issued using the posture change instruction section 10 of the camera 1. The content instructed by the attitude change instruction unit 10 is converted into a signal by the attitude change instruction signal unit 11 that sends a corresponding signal, and is sent to the communication unit 6 on the receiving side, and the camera 1 is sent via the communication network 5. The information is transmitted to the equipped communication unit 4 on the transmitting side. The attitude change instruction signal received by the communication unit 4 on the transmitting side is sent to the attitude change instruction control unit 12, which sends an equivalent electrical signal to the attitude change unit 9. The attitude changing unit 9 is supposed to control the attitude of the camera 1 according to the electric signal. In the case of such a system, as explained earlier, the camera may go too far, so it is necessary to move back a little. Figure 2
The following describes the output signal of the attitude change instruction control unit 12.

、停止を望む位置の近傍に停止させるものである。[0012] A is the simplest control method; when the attitude change instruction control unit 12 receives a movement start signal, it issues a signal to move in the forward direction, and when it receives a stop instruction signal midway through, it moves in the opposite direction. The control is stopped by issuing a signal. The time period for this movement in the opposite direction is determined in advance based on the conditions of actual use, and the movement is made to stop near the desired stop position.

When the attitude change instruction control unit 12 receives a movement start signal, it issues a signal to move in the forward direction, and when it receives a stop instruction signal on the way, it immediately issues a signal to move in the opposite direction by an amount equivalent to two and a half steps. This method stops the control by issuing a signal.
