In addition, in a second aspect of the present invention, in the monitoring arrangement of above-mentioned first aspect,

Above-mentioned image output unit also can send monitoring picture via the network network terminal externally, and this monitoring picture is above-mentioned enlarged image or above-mentioned photographed images.

In addition, in a third aspect of the present invention, in the monitoring arrangement of above-mentioned first aspect or above-mentioned second aspect, above-mentioned multiplying power configuration part also can set above-mentioned multiplying power with the activity of above-mentioned movable body accordingly, the above-mentioned multiplying power when the activity of above-mentioned movable body is large is diminished, becomes large in this activity hour above-mentioned multiplying power.

In addition, in a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the monitoring arrangement of above-mentioned first aspect ~ above-mentioned third aspect,

If be judged as, above-mentioned movable body stops in above-mentioned photographed images, and the multiplying power temporarily set for amplifying above-mentioned photographed images, then after this above-mentioned multiplying power configuration part also can be updated periodically above-mentioned multiplying power, makes above-mentioned movable body be maintained predetermined size in the display frame of above-mentioned display unit.

In addition, in a fifth aspect of the present invention, in the monitoring arrangement of above-mentioned first aspect ~ above-mentioned fourth aspect,

Also can possess: frame configuration part, the activity of itself and above-mentioned movable body accordingly, set the above-mentioned display maintenance frame that above-mentioned mobile detection unit uses in the mobile judgement of above-mentioned movable body, make the above-mentioned display when this activity is large maintain frame to diminish, maintain frame in hour above-mentioned display of this activity and become large.

In addition, in a sixth aspect of the present invention, in the monitoring arrangement in above-mentioned first aspect ~ above-mentioned 5th,

If the movable body detected by above-mentioned movable body test section is stopped in above-mentioned photographed images, then above-mentioned multiplying power configuration part also can to the size of the above-mentioned movable body detected by above-mentioned movable body test section and last time in order to the size generating the above-mentioned movable body used when above-mentioned enlarged image sets above-mentioned multiplying power compares

If in the preset range of the size of the above-mentioned movable body that the size of the above-mentioned movable body detected by above-mentioned movable body test section is used when being in and comprising and set above-mentioned multiplying power last time, then above-mentioned multiplying power configuration part also can according to the size of the above-mentioned movable body detected by above-mentioned movable body test section, set above-mentioned multiplying power

If the size of the above-mentioned movable body detected by above-mentioned movable body test section is not in above-mentioned preset range, then above-mentioned multiplying power configuration part also according to the size of the above-mentioned movable body used when setting above-mentioned multiplying power last time, can set above-mentioned multiplying power.

According to monitoring arrangement of the present invention, movable body test section, according to the Temporal changes of photographed images by image pickup part shooting gained, detects the movable body of movement in this photographed images, and detects the position of this movable body in photographed images and size.

In addition, if the movable body detected by this movable body test section is stopped in photographed images, then multiplying power configuration part is according to the size of this movable body in photographed images, and setting is used for the multiplying power of amplifying camera image, makes movable body become predetermined size in the display frame of display unit.

Like this, the multiplying power of this setting of image generation unit, amplifying camera image centered by the stop position of movable body in photographed images, generates the enlarged image being used for amplifying display movable body in the display frame of display unit thus.

Then, when generating enlarged image by this image production part, the enlarged image of this generation exports as the monitoring picture in monitored object region by image output unit.

In addition, if do not generate enlarged image by image production part, then the photographed images captured by image pickup part exports as monitoring picture by image output unit.

In addition, when generating above-mentioned enlarged image by image production part, mobile detection unit judges whether movable body is crossed predetermined display and maintained frame and move in display frame.

Then, if be judged as that movable body is crossed predetermined display and maintained frame and move in display frame by mobile detection unit, the generation action of then amplifying the enlarged image that stop makes image production part generate stops, and makes the photographed images captured by image pickup part to be exported as monitoring picture from image output unit.That is, the output that stop stops enlarged image being amplified.

Like this, monitoring arrangement according to a first aspect of the invention, photographed images by image pickup part shooting gained is processed, thus the motion of the movable body in monitored object region is monitored, when movable body stops, the monitoring picture externally exported is changed to enlarged image from common photographed images, makes it possible to amplify display (zoom in) this movable body.

Therefore, monitoring arrangement according to a first aspect of the invention, can with the motion of the movable body as subject automatic zoom in/out monitoring picture ordinatedly, and an image pickup part can be used to carry out this zoom in/out.

In addition, monitoring arrangement can by forming a video camera of this image pickup part and carrying out forming as movable body test section, multiplying power configuration part, image production part, image output unit, mobile detection unit and the image processing apparatus of image procossing that amplifies stop, therefore, it is possible to carry movement simply, the place of hope can be set to simply.

At this, the signal corresponding with monitoring picture also can be outputted to external device (ED) via holding wire by image output unit, but more preferably can form as above-mentioned second aspect.

That is, in the monitoring arrangement of second aspect, image output unit sends monitoring picture via the network network terminal externally.

Therefore, no matter where the user of monitoring arrangement can both utilize the network terminal to confirm monitoring picture, if such as there is pet as moving body in monitored object region, then and can in confirm pet movement with going out.

Then, multiplying power during the setting amplifying camera image of multiplying power configuration part, movable body is made to become predetermined size in the display frame of display unit, if but the size that the setting carrying out this multiplying power makes movable body become fixing all the time, then can imagine when movable body moves actively, monitoring picture will switch to common monitoring picture from enlarged image at short notice.

Namely, when movable body moves actively, even if movable body temporarily stops and generating enlarged image, if the multiplying power of this movable body is large, then movable body is also easy moves to beyond display maintenance frame in display frame, and therefore monitoring picture will switch to common photographed images at short notice.

On the other hand, there is following such problem, if namely in order to prevent such switching, reduce the multiplying power of photographed images when generating enlarged image, even if then exported as monitoring picture by enlarged image, user also cannot based on the state (expression etc. of the such as pet) display frame of this enlarged image confirming in detail movable body.

Therefore, when the such activity of movable body such as pet becoming monitored object changes greatly, multiplying power configuration part can be configured to set multiplying power as the above-mentioned third aspect, the multiplying power when the activity of movable body is large is reduced, becomes large at activity h rate.

Namely, thus, such as, move back and forth at movable body, when its activity is large, by reducing multiplying power, can extend and maintain frame and monitoring picture revert to time common photographed images from being switched to by monitoring picture enlarged image to cross display in display frame to moving body.

In addition, in the situation (situation that such as pet is sleeping) that the activity of movable body is little, the multiplying power of enlarged image when stopping by increasing movable body, show greatly by movable body when being shown in a display device by enlarged image in display frame, user easily can monitor the state of movable body.

In addition, next, during crossing the display in display frame to movable body and maintaining frame, the multiplying power of the enlarged image set by multiplying power configuration part can be remained fixing multiplying power, but thus, such as, when in the process generating enlarged image, movable body is close to image pickup part, movable body becomes large in display frame, on the contrary movable body from image pickup part away from time, movable body diminishes in display frame.

Therefore, multiplying power configuration part also can as above-mentioned fourth aspect, if be configured to be judged as that movable body stops in photographed images, and the multiplying power temporarily set for amplifying camera image, then after this be updated periodically multiplying power, make movable body maintain predetermined size in the display frame of display unit.

In addition, if like this, then enlarged image is exported as monitoring picture, can be presented at roughly fixing large young pathbreaker's movable body in outside display unit thus, make user in this display frame, the state of movable body can be grasped well.

Then, mobile detection unit, when generating enlarged image by image production part, judges whether movable body is crossed predetermined display and maintained frame and move in display frame.For for this judgement display maintain frame, also can with generate enlarged image time multiplying power in the same manner as, set accordingly with the activity of movable body.

In addition, for this reason, as above-mentioned 5th aspect, arrange frame configuration part, the activity of frame configuration part and movable body accordingly set and display maintains frame, makes to show when activity is large to maintain frame and diminish, and maintains a frame become large in an activity hour display.

That is, thus, such as large at the activity of movable body, movable body easily departs from from display frame, reduce display and maintain frame, monitoring picture more early can be reverted to common photographed images thus, prevent the situation not showing movable body in display frame.

In addition, at the activity hour (when such as pet falls asleep) of movable body, increase display and maintain frame, can suppress due to a small amount of motion of movable body that monitoring picture reverts to the situation of common photographed images thus.

Then, movable body test section does not use sensor, and detect movable body according to the Temporal changes of the photographed images of being carried out image pickup gained by image pickup part, therefore, it is possible to simplification device structure as described above, but such as when the part motion of the movable body that the tail etc. of pet should monitor, sometimes this part is detected as movable body.

In addition, in this case, movable body test section is according to the position and the size that have the part of motion to identify this movable body detected in photographed images, therefore, when this movable body stops in photographed images, the setting of multiplying power configuration part is used for the multiplying power of the part showing the movable body that should monitor with predetermined size.

In addition, if set multiplying power like this, then the enlarged image that the part (tail of such as pet) that image production part generates the movable body that monitor is exaggerated, normally cannot monitor movable body in this enlarged image.

Therefore, in order to prevent such problem, as above-mentioned 6th aspect, form multiplying power configuration part.

Namely, in monitoring arrangement in the above-mentioned 6th, if the movable body detected by movable body test section is stopped in photographed images, then multiplying power configuration part to the size of the movable body detected by movable body test section and last time in order to the size generating the movable body used when enlarged image sets multiplying power compares.

Then, if the size of the movable body detected by movable body test section is in the preset range of the size comprising the movable body used when setting multiplying power last time, then according to the size setting multiplying power of the movable body detected by movable body test section, if the size of the movable body detected by movable body test section is not in preset range, then according to the size setting multiplying power of the movable body used when setting multiplying power last time.

Namely, in monitoring arrangement in the above-mentioned 6th, multiplying power configuration part is when movable body stops in photographed images, the size of the movable body when the size of this movable body set multiplying power from last time is when great changes have taken place, be judged as that a part for the movable body that should be monitored by movable body test section is detected as movable body, according to the size setting multiplying power of movable body when setting multiplying power last time.

Therefore, according to the monitoring arrangement of above-mentioned 6th aspect, when a part for the movable body that should be monitored by movable body test section is detected as movable body, can prevent the enlarged image being generated the part for amplifying this movable body of display by image production part, thus it is overall to amplify display movable body well.

In addition, as shown in (b) of Fig. 3, if movable body 32 stops in photographed images, then this movable body 32 becomes the center of display frame, and amplifying (zoom in) photographed images makes the size of movable body 32 (in length and breadth) become in length and breadth 1/2 of display frame, using the image (enlarged image) after this amplification as monitoring picture, externally terminal sends ((c) with reference to Fig. 3).

This action is realized with amplification Graphics Processing by the movable body check processing periodically repeated by control part 30.

As shown in Figure 4, in movable body check processing, in S100 (S represents step), photographed images is read in from video camera 14, in S110, according to the motion vector detection movable body 32 (being in other words pet) generated around movable body 32 in this photographed images, in S120, generate the frame (around movable body frame) 34 surrounding the surrounding of movable body 32.

On the other hand, in amplification Graphics Processing, first in s 200, read in frame 34 around the up-to-date movable body that generated by movable body check processing, in 210 then, according to the change of frame 34 around this movable body, judge whether movable body 32 stops, wait for that movable body 32 stops thus.

Then, if be judged as that in S210 movable body 32 stops, then transfer to S220, read in the amount (size of frame around n the movable body comprising frame 34 around up-to-date movable body of the n frame of frame size around the movable body that detects in the past in movable body check processing, n: complex values), calculate its mean size (being frame size around mean motion body in detail).

In addition, in S220 then, around the up-to-date movable body read in s 200, surrounding's set and display of frame 34 maintains frame 36.

This display maintains frame 36 and is set to the predetermined value of frame 34 around movable body doubly, and it is little this multiplying power to be set as make to show housing (hereinafter referred to as the amplification display box) 38 maintaining frame 36 than display frame when amplifying display movable body 32.

Then, in S240, to photographed images adjustment size, frame size (in length and breadth) around mean motion body is made to become the size of each 1/2 of the size in length and breadth of amplifying display box 38.Then, in S250, the viewing area (namely amplifying display box 38) in setting photographed images, makes the center of the movable body 32 in the image after this adjustment size become display frame center.

Then, in S260, the view data in the amplification display box 38 of this setting is exported as the view data of the amplification display movable body 32 in exterior terminal, starts thus to amplify display.

In addition, after the process of S260, continue to output to exterior terminal as monitoring picture using from the view data (i.e. enlarged image) in the amplification display box 38 set in S250 in the photographed images captured by video camera 14.Therefore, in outside end side, the enlarged image (dynamic image) after the pet as movable body 32 is amplified can be appreciated.

In addition, be judged to be to have passed through the scheduled time (such as 1 second) after movable body 32 stops in S210 after, implement S260 by the switching of monitoring picture to enlarged image, movable body 32 has moved in during after a predetermined time, transferred to S200.

Then, start to amplify display in S260 after, transfer to S270, read in frame 34 around the movable body that generated by movable body check processing.Then, in S280 then, judge whether frame 34 around this movable body read in exceeds the display set in S230 and maintain outside frame 36.

If be judged as that in S280 around movable body, frame 34 does not exceed outside display maintenance frame 36, then again transfer to S270, if be judged as that in S280 around movable body, frame 34 exceeds outside display maintenance frame 36, be then judged as that movable body 32 has very large movement, transfer to S290, terminate to amplify display.

In addition, switch to photographed images captured by video camera 14 by the monitoring picture that externally terminal sent from enlarged image, carry out the end of amplifying display, in outside end side, display frame is changed to the common monitoring picture reduced from pet.

As described above, monitoring arrangement 10 according to the present embodiment, by the motion vector detection movable body 32 of movable body check processing according to photographed images, frame 34 around the movable body being created on surrounding photographed images surrounding movable body 32, generates thus and represents the position of movable body 32 and the information of size.

Then, in amplification Graphics Processing, judge whether movable body 32 stops according to the change of frame 34 around this movable body, if movable body 32 stops, then around this movable body frame 34 become in display frame predetermined size (namely display frame in length and breadth, 1/2), and generate the image (enlarged image) that movable body 32 becomes the amplification display of the center of display frame, output to exterior terminal.

Therefore, monitoring arrangement 10 according to the present embodiment, automatically can carry out zoom in/out to monitoring picture ordinatedly with the motion of movable body 32, and a video camera 14 can be used to carry out this zoom in/out.

In addition, the monitoring picture being sent to exterior terminal can be generated by video camera 14 with to the control part (microcomputer) 30 that the photographed images captured by video camera 14 processes, do not need the sensor arranged in addition for detecting the pet movement as movable body 32, therefore, it is possible to simplification device structure.In addition, because apparatus structure becomes simple, can also easily carry out carrying of monitoring arrangement 10 mobile, to the setting of expected-site.

In addition, in the present embodiment, video camera 14 is equivalent to image pickup part of the present invention, wireless communication part 21 and wire communication portion 22 are equivalent to image output unit of the present invention, and control part 30 is equivalent to movable body test section of the present invention, multiplying power configuration part, image production part, mobile detection unit and amplifies stop.

In addition, in control part 30, the function as movable body test section is realized by the movable body check processing shown in Fig. 4, the function as multiplying power configuration part and image production part is realized by the process of the S210 ~ S260 shown in Fig. 4, realizing the function as mobile detection unit by the process of S270, the S280 shown in Fig. 4, realizing the function as amplifying stop by the process of the S290 shown in Fig. 4.

Above, describe an embodiment of the invention, but the present invention is not limited to above-mentioned execution mode, can various forms be taked without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.

At this, next, as other examples of embodiments of the present invention, 4 version corresponding with above-mentioned execution mode are described.

In addition, the version 1 below illustrated is corresponding with a third aspect of the present invention, and version 2 is corresponding with a fourth aspect of the present invention, and version 3 is corresponding with a fifth aspect of the present invention, and version 4 is corresponding with a sixth aspect of the present invention.

(version 1)

" adjustment of the multiplying power coordinated with the activity of subject "

In the above-described embodiment, describe the multiplying power of photographed images when amplifying display movable body 32 is set to movable body 32 relative to display frame become in length and breadth 1/2 the situation of size.But when movable body 32 moves actively, if this multiplying power is excessive, then monitoring picture shortens from enlarged image to the switching interval of photographed images, and user is difficult to monitor movable body 2 in display frame.

In addition, if in order to prevent such problem, reduce the multiplying power of photographed images when generating enlarged image, even if then exported as monitoring picture by enlarged image, user also cannot based on the state (expression etc. of the pet) display frame of this enlarged image being grasped in detail movable body.

Therefore, also the multiplying power of amplifying when showing movable body 32 can be set accordingly with the activity of subject.

That is, when subject is moved actively, example is such as shown in Figure 5A, and setting multiplying power makes frame 34 around movable body become 1/3 (area ratio 1/9) in length and breadth of amplifying display box 38.In addition, when subject is moved hardly, example is such as shown in Figure 5 B, and setting multiplying power makes frame 34 around movable body become 2/3 (area ratio 4/9) in length and breadth of amplifying display box 38.

Further, when performing the process of the S240 shown in Fig. 4 in control part 30, perform the multiplying power setting process shown in Fig. 6 for this reason simultaneously.

Namely, in multiplying power setting process, obtain the centre coordinate (S300) of frame 34 around movable body, according to the activity X (S310) of the change calculations movable body 32 of its centre coordinate, if this activity X is in critical field (S320-is), then multiplying power is set as standard value (area ratio 1/4) (S330).

In addition, when activity X is less than critical field (S340-is), multiplying power is set as maximum (area ratio 4/9) (S350), when activity X is larger than critical field (S340-is no), multiplying power is set as minimum value (area ratio 1/9) (S360).

Then, thus, reduce multiplying power when the activity of movable body 32 is large, can extend thus and maintain frame 36 and monitoring picture revert to time common photographed images from being switched to by monitoring picture enlarged image to cross display to movable body 32.

In addition, the increase multiplying factor when the activity of movable body 32 is little, movable body 32 can be presented at exterior terminal greatly thus, user easily monitors the state of movable body 32.

(version 2)

" in subject after amplifying display in the adjustment showing the multiplying power maintained when moving in frame "

Then, also can until movable body 32 crosses display in display frame maintains during frame 36 multiplying power being used for amplifying display is remained fixing multiplying power.But so, if movable body 32 is close to video camera 14 in the process of display enlarged image, then movable body 32 becomes large in display frame.

That is, in this case, in the display frame of exterior terminal, as shown in Figure 7 A, 7 B, movable body 32 is changed to the amplification size maintaining frame 36 close to display from the normal size after harsh one-tenth enlarged image.

In addition, on the contrary, when movable body 32 is away from video camera 14, movable body 32 diminishes in display frame, and user is difficult to monitor movable body 32.

Therefore, after also can starting the output of enlarged image in above-mentioned S260, as seen in figure 7 c, be updated periodically the multiplying power generating enlarged image, make in the display frame of exterior terminal with roughly fixing size display movable body 32.

Then, after starting to amplify display by the process of S260 in control part 30, perform the multiplying power update process shown in Fig. 8, the multiplying power of the photographed images thus during more newly-generated enlarged image for this reason.

That is, this multiplying power update process is being amplified the process periodically performed in the process of display movable body 32, in S400, judging whether movable body 32 moves, if movable body 32 moves, then perform the process of S410 ~ 490.

Then, in S410, obtain the size of frame 34 around the movable body amplifying the nearest n frame generated by movable body check processing in the process of display, in S420, judge whether the variable quantity of frame size around the movable body between each frame is all below threshold value.

When the variable quantity being judged as frame size around the movable body between each frame in S420 is all below threshold value, is judged as that the size of movable body 32 does not change sharp, transfers to S430, after wait first setting-up time (1s), transfer to S440.

In addition, if at least one of the variable quantity of frame size exceedes threshold value around the movable body in S420 between each frame, be then judged as that the size of movable body 32 changes sharp, transfer to S435, after wait first setting-up time (0.5s), transfer to S440.

In S440, obtain the pixel count a of the transverse direction of frame 34 around the up-to-date movable body that obtained by movable body check processing, in S450, obtain the pixel count b of the transverse direction of frame 34 around up-to-date movable body equally.

Then, in S460 then, read in benchmark size and the baseline locomotor body size Z (predetermined value preset, in length and breadth 1/2 of such as display frame) of frame 34 around the movable body that be presented in enlarged image, transfer to S470.

In addition, in S470, according to above-mentioned each parameter a, b, Z, calculate adjustment multiplying power d (d=(a/b) Z), in S480, according to adjustment multiplying power d, size is adjusted to photographed images.

Then, finally in S490, the viewing area in setting photographed images, makes the center of the subject in the photographed images after this adjustment size (movable body 32) become display frame center.

When consequently amplifying the movable body 32 shown as subject in exterior terminal, be presented at the central authorities of display frame with roughly the same large young pathbreaker's movable body 32.

(version 3)

" display coordinated with the activity of subject maintains the adjustment of frame "

In the above-described embodiment, describing in the process of amplifying display movable body 32, determining whether that the display by the monitoring picture that externally terminal sends reverts to common photographed images from enlarged image maintains the predetermined value situation doubly that frame 36 is set as frame 34 around movable body by being used for.But, for this display maintain frame 36, also can with generate enlarged image time multiplying power in the same manner as, set accordingly with the activity of movable body 32.

Namely, when movable body 32 moves actively, reduce display as shown in Figure 9 A like that and maintain frame 36, when movable body 32 moves hardly (night or movable body 32 are the situations etc. at advanced age), amplify display as shown in Figure 9 B like that and maintain frame 36.

In addition, the change that display as above maintains the size of frame 36 manually can be carried out by user, also automatically can be carried out by control part 30.

In addition, in order to automatically be changed the size that display maintains frame 36 by control part 30, when performing the process of S230 in control part 30, perform the display shown in Figure 10 and maintain frame setting process.

Namely, maintain in frame setting process in this display, in S500, obtain the centre coordinate of frame 34 around the movable body that repeatedly generated in the past by movable body check processing, according to the timing variations of these multiple centre coordinates obtained in S510, calculate the activity X of movable body 32.

Then, in S520 then, judge this activity X calculated whether in critical field, if activity X is in critical field, then in S530, display is maintained frame 36 and be set as standard value relative to the multiplying power of frame around movable body 34.

In addition, if be judged as that in S520 activity X is not in critical field, then transfer to S540.In S540, judge whether activity X is less than critical field, when activity X is less than critical field, transfer to S550, display is maintained frame 36 and is set as predetermined value of magnification relative to the multiplying power of frame around movable body 34.

In addition, in S540, be judged as that activity X is in the situation (situation that namely activity X is larger than critical field) of more than critical field, transfer to S560, display is maintained frame 36 and be set as predetermined reducing value relative to the multiplying power of frame around movable body 34.

In addition, according to this version 3, large at the activity X of movable body 32, movable body 32 easily departs from from display frame, frame 36 is maintained by reducing display, earlier monitoring picture can be reverted to common photographed images, thus the situation not showing movable body in display frame can be prevented.

In addition, activity X hour (when such as pet falls asleep) of movable body 32, maintaining frame 36 by increasing display, can suppress to make monitoring picture revert to common photographed images because of a small amount of motion of movable body 32.

(version 4)

" for one partial error not being detected as the function of subject entirety when the part motion of subject "

Then, in the above-described embodiment, as shown in figure 11, following situation can be considered, namely, in the process of amplifying display movable body 32, when a part (tail of such as pet) for movable body 32 is moved, this part can be detected as movable body 32` mistakenly.

In addition, following situation can be considered, namely when the movable body 32` detected mistakenly in this case stops, setting frame 34` around movable body for this movable body 32`, amplify display movable body 32` (with reference to Figure 11 B).

Therefore, in order to prevent such problem, also can perform according to the step shown in Figure 12 or Figure 13 and amplifying Graphics Processing.

That is, in the amplification Graphics Processing shown in Figure 12, if detect that movable body 32 stops according to the change of frame around movable body 34 in S210, then, in S212, obtain the size of frame 34 around movable body, be stored in the memories such as RAM.

Then, in S214 then, with the size of frame 34 around the movable body stored in S212 last time for benchmark, judge whether the size of frame 34 around the movable body that obtains in S212 is in (in the scope of such as 0.3 times ~ 1.7 times) in preset range.If be consequently in preset range, then be transferred directly to S230, if not to be in preset range (if namely around movable body the size of frame 34 change suddenly), then in S218, upper sub-value is set as the size of frame 34 around movable body, transfers to S230.

Then, in S230, according to the size of frame 34 around the movable body of current setting, around movable body, surrounding's set and display of frame 34 maintains frame 36.Then, the later process of S240 is performed in the same manner as above-mentioned execution mode.

Thus, when the size of frame 34 changes suddenly around movable body, do not change frame 34 around movable body, and directly amplify display movable body 32 before this.Therefore, it is possible to prevent from a part for movable body 32 being detected as movable body 32` mistakenly and amplifying the situation of display.

In addition, the amplification Graphics Processing shown in Figure 13 performs in S216 this point different replacing the process of the S214 in Figure 12.

Namely, in S216, judge whether the size of frame 34 around movable body is less than sub-value, if the size of frame 34 is more than upper sub-value around movable body, then be transferred directly to S230, the size of frame 34 is less than sub-value around movable body, after upper sub-value being set as the size of frame 34 around movable body in S218, transfer to S230.

Then, also can prevent from thus a part for movable body 32 being detected as movable body 32` mistakenly and amplifying the situation of display.

In addition, power supply unit 28 is built-in with can the battery of discharge and recharge, possesses and supplies for accepting power supply from the AC adapter of outside the DC jack 29 charged to battery.

Control part 30 is configured to comprise the microcomputer (microcomputer) possessing CPU, ROM, RAM etc., and is connected with above-mentioned each portion.

In addition, control part 30 carrys out action according to the various instructions inputted from the communication terminal of outside via wireless communication part 21 or wire communication portion 22, if such as request the photographed images captured by COMS video camera (hereinafter referred to as video camera) 14, then photographed images is transformed to the dynamic image data of display, sends to the communication terminal requesting photographed images.

In addition, control part 30, when communication terminal does not externally send photographed images, periodically measures the amount of exercise of pet, tweeting sound and indoor temperature as monitoring data, its measurement result is stored in non-volatile memories such as backup RAM.

Then, if request supervision data from the communication terminal of outside, then reading the supervision data of the area of a room expected time of arrival from memory, monitoring that the communication terminal of data sends to requesting.

In addition, as the communication terminal of outside, the information processing terminals such as the personal computer that the LAN (local area network (LAN)) that is connected with via wireless communication part 21, wire communication portion 22 directly connects can be enumerated, connect the information processing terminal on internet of LAN via router or ISP (ISP) etc., via portable terminal devices etc. such as the portable phone of the wireless communication networks such as portable phone circuit and Internet connection or smart phones.

Below, the sending action of control part 30 pairs of photographed images and supervision data is described.

Control part 30, by repeating the movable body check processing shown in Figure 15 as one of main routine, is detected movable body, is identified as pet from the photographed images of gained of being made a video recording by video camera 14.

Namely, as shown in figure 15, in movable body check processing, in S100 (S represents step), photographed images is read in, in S110, in this photographed images from video camera 14, according to the motion vector generated around movable body, detect the movable body 32 (being in other words pet) (with reference to Fig. 3 (a)) of movement.

Then, in S120 then, generate around movable body 32 that frame 34 ((a) with reference to Fig. 3) around movable body makes it surround in photographed images to detect in S110, temporarily terminate movable body check processing.

In addition, around the movable body generated in S120, frame 34 is represent the position of movable body 32 in photographed images and the data of size.

In addition, the dynamic image data that the photographed images boil down to captured by video camera 14 sends, when requesting photographed images from the communication terminal of outside, sends by control part 30.

Then, when sending this image, control part 30, by performing the amplification Graphics Processing shown in Figure 15, when the pet as movable body 32 stops, generating the dynamic image data being exaggerated this movable body 32 part, and communication terminal externally sends.

That is, in the amplification Graphics Processing shown in Figure 15, first in s 200, frame 34 around the up-to-date movable body generated by movable body check processing is read in.Then in 210, according to the change of frame 34 around this movable body, judge whether movable body 32 stops, wait for that movable body 32 stops thus.

Then, if be judged as that in S210 movable body 32 stops, then transfer to S220, read in the amount (size of frame around n the movable body comprising frame 34 around up-to-date movable body of the n frame of frame size around the movable body that detected in the past by movable body check processing, n: complex values), calculate its mean size (being frame size around mean motion body in detail).

In addition, in S220 then, around the up-to-date movable body read in s 200, surrounding's set and display of frame 34 maintains frame 36.

As shown in (b) of Fig. 3, display maintains frame 36 and is set to the predetermined value of frame 34 around movable body doubly.It is less than housing (hereinafter referred to as the amplification display box) 38 of the display frame of amplifying when showing movable body 32 that the multiplying power of display maintenance frame 36 is set to show maintenance frame 36.

Then, in S240, to photographed images adjustment size, frame size (in length and breadth) around mean motion body is made to become the size of each 1/2 of the size in length and breadth of amplifying display box 38.Then, in S250, the viewing area (namely amplifying display box 38) in setting photographed images, makes the center of the movable body 32 in the image after this adjustment size become display frame center.

Then, in S260, the view data in the amplification display box 38 of this setting amplified in external communications terminals the view data of display movable body 32 and export, starting thus to amplify display.

In addition, after the process of S260, using from the photographed images captured by video camera 14, view data (i.e. enlarged image) in the amplification display box 38 that sets in S250 as monitoring picture, communication terminal externally continues to export.

Therefore, in the communication terminal side of outside, as shown in (c) of Fig. 3, the enlarged image (dynamic image) after the pet as movable body 32 is amplified can be shown.

In addition, be judged to be to have passed through the scheduled time (such as 1 second) after movable body 32 stops in S210 after, implement S260 by the switching of monitoring picture to enlarged image, movable body 32 has moved in during after a predetermined time, transferred to S200.

In addition, transfer to S270 start to amplify display in S260 after, read in frame 34 around the movable body that generated by movable body check processing.Then, in S280 then, judge whether frame 34 around this movable body read in exceeds the display set in S230 and maintain outside frame 36.

If be judged as that in S280 around movable body, frame 34 does not exceed outside display maintenance frame 36, then transfer to S270 again.In addition, if be judged as that in S280 around movable body, frame 34 exceeds outside display maintenance frame 36, be then judged as that movable body 32 has very large movement, and transfer to S290, terminate to amplify display.

In addition, photographed images captured by video camera 14 is switched to from enlarged image by the monitoring picture sent by communication terminal externally, carry out the end of amplifying display, in the communication terminal side of outside, display frame reverts to the common monitoring picture reduced from pet.

Then, control part 30 is not when having execution to comprise the transmission processing of the photographed images of above-mentioned amplification Graphics Processing, perform following supervision data genaration stores processor (with reference to Figure 16), namely measure the amount of exercise of pet, tweeting sound and room temperature, and be stored as supervision data.In addition, if request supervision data from the communication terminal of outside, then control part 30 execution monitoring data sending processing (with reference to Figure 17).

Monitor that data genaration stores processor is using the generation frequency of the amount of exercise X of predetermined period duplicate measurements pet, tweeting sound and indoor temperature and by its measurement result as monitoring that data store process in memory, as every certain hour interrupt processing and perform.

As shown in figure 16, if monitor that data genaration stores processor starts, then first in S600, obtain the centre coordinate of frame around the up-to-date movable body that generated by movable body check processing, in S610, calculate the variable quantity of this centre coordinate relative to upper sub-value.

Then, in S620, detect the signal level of the voice signal inputted via microphone 19, when this signal level exceedes predetermined threshold value, be judged as that pet pipes.

In addition, in S630 then, measure indoor temperature by temperature sensor 25.

Then, in S640 then, the judged result in the measurement result obtained in the process of above-mentioned S610 ~ S630 and S620 is stored in memory.

Next, in S650 then, judge storing in measurement result in memory whether there are the data departed from the normal range (NR) set by user.At this, if there are the data departed from normal range (NR), then in S660, notify to the communication terminal of registering in advance abnormal with predetermined communication form such as Emails, transfer to S670.

In addition, if be judged as monitoring the data do not departed from normal range (NR) in data, being then transferred directly to S670 in S650.

Then, in S670, judge whether to have passed through the supervision setting-up time (such as 5 minutes) preset.If be judged as not through monitoring setting-up time, then in order to be repeated this supervision data genaration stores processor by interrupt processing, and temporarily terminating this supervision data genaration stores processor in S670.

In addition, if be judged as have passed through supervision setting-up time in S670, then transfer to S680, from memory, read measurement result that store in S640, that monitor setting-up time amount, and calculate supervision data.

Namely, in S680, by calculate in S610, the variable quantity of the centre coordinate that monitors setting-up time amount is added, calculate the amount of exercise X of movable body 32 (i.e. pet) thus, and calculate the number of times (or frequency) detecting the tweeting sound of pet in S620 in supervision setting-up time.Then, in S680, the supervision data of these each result of calculations as the amount of exercise X and tweeting sound that represent pet are stored in memory.

In addition, in S680, using the mean value of the indoor temperature measured in supervision setting-up time in S630 as representing that the supervision data of indoor temperature store in memory.

Then, store in S680 after monitoring data, current Looking Out Time is reverted to initial value: 0, temporarily terminate this supervision data genaration stores processor.

Consequently in supervision data genaration stores processor, often monitor that setting-up time generates the supervision data of the amount of exercise X representing pet, number of times (or frequency) that pet pipes and indoor temperature, this generation often monitored that the supervision data of setting-up time store in memory according to priority.

Then, the supervision data sending processing shown in Figure 17 is the process repeated as one of main routine.In addition, in this supervision data sending processing, first, in S700, judging whether have monitoring the request of data from the communication terminal of outside, if not request, then directly temporarily terminating this supervision data sending processing.

On the other hand, if be judged as to the request monitoring data, then transferring to S710 in S700.In S710, judge that to the request of supervision data be via browser or via vertical application, judge that the data mode of the supervision data that send is the numeric data form or the view data form that can show in a browser that can carry out image display in vertical application thus.

Then, if be numeric data from the request msg form of the communication terminal of outside, then S720 is transferred to.In S720, the supervision data in the scheduled period corresponding with the request of the communication terminal from outside are read from memory, under the state of keeping intact (i.e. the state of numeric data form), its communication terminal is externally sent, and temporarily terminates this supervision data sending processing.

In addition, if be view data from the request msg form of the communication terminal of outside, then S730 is transferred to.In S730, read the supervision data in the scheduled period corresponding with the request of the communication terminal from outside from memory, be transformed to the view data exemplified by Figure 18 A ~ Figure 18 C.

In addition, view data shown in Figure 18 A ~ Figure 18 C is the data representing following image: according to the supervision data stored in memory, often monitors that setting-up time carries out the image of pictorialization gained respectively to the measurement result of amount of exercise X, the measurement result (number of times or frequency) of tweeting sound and indoor temperature.

In addition, in each view data shown in Figure 18 A ~ Figure 18 C, the part that there are not data with stop execution monitoring data genaration stores processor during, namely send captured by video camera 14 photographed images to communication terminal during corresponding.

Then, in S740 then, generate 3 view data communication terminal is externally sent, and temporarily terminate this supervision data sending processing in S730.

As described above, in the monitoring arrangement 10 of present embodiment, not when the request according to the communication terminal from outside sends the photographed images captured by video camera 14, detect the motion of pet according to this photographed images.Then, the amount of exercise X often monitoring the pet of setting-up time is calculated according to testing result.

Therefore, monitoring arrangement 10 according to the present embodiment, does not install on the transducer measuring amount of exercise or mensuration platform pet being loaded in mensuration amount of exercise to pet, just can measure the amount of exercise X of pet.

In addition, in the monitoring arrangement 10 of present embodiment, when measuring amount of exercise X, detect tweeting sound and the indoor temperature of pet simultaneously.Then, calculate at the mean value monitoring the indoor temperature in the number of times (or frequency) and supervision setting-up time that in setting-up time, pet pipes according to testing result.

Then, using the amount of exercise X of pet, the number of times (or frequency) of tweeting sound and the indoor temperature (mean value) that measure like this as supervision data, be stored according to priority in the memory (storage medium) in control part 30.

In addition, if request supervision data from the communication terminal of outside to monitoring arrangement 10, then control part 30 reads from memory and monitors data, and sends to communication terminal.

Therefore, the user of the monitoring arrangements such as the raiser of pet 10 utilizes the communication terminal (being registered in the information processor in monitoring arrangement 10, mobile communication terminal) can accessing monitoring arrangement 10, obtains the supervision data of the monitoring result as pet from monitoring arrangement 10.The supervision data that user can obtain according to this, the state of the state confirming pet and the indoor being provided with monitoring arrangement 10.

In addition, control part 30 is when communication terminal externally sends supervision data, the data mode of the supervision data that judgement should send, if this data mode is numeric data, then directly send and monitor data, if data mode is view data, then send the view data of each supervision data being carried out to pictorialization gained.

Therefore, as for obtaining and confirming to monitor the communication terminal of data, the user of monitoring arrangement 10 can either utilize the communication terminal having installed the vertical application software (such as showing software for calculation) that can process numeric data, also can utilize that do not possess vertical application software and only possess reading software (browser) of internet etc. can the communication terminal of general application software of display image data.

In addition, and then monitoring arrangement 10 also can according to the request of the communication terminal from outside, the photographed images of transmission captured by video camera 14.Therefore, user can utilize predetermined communication terminal to obtain supervision data, when feeling abnormal from these supervision data, utilizes the communication terminal that can show photographed images, obtain the photographed images captured by video camera 14, confirm the state of current pet or the state of indoor.

Below, reference implementation mode 2 is further illustrated.In addition, for the structure identical with reference implementation mode 1 with above-mentioned execution mode, use identical unit number, the description thereof will be omitted.

The monitoring arrangement 10 of present embodiment is arranged in the room of the hope in the buildings such as house, for when the resident family in this room goes out, monitors the pet (animal such as dog, cat) (with reference to Fig. 1, Figure 14) raised in this room.

In the present embodiment, control part 30, when communication terminal does not externally send photographed images, periodically detects the motion of pet, tweeting sound and indoor temperature.

In addition, when the motion of pet changes, the tweeting sound of pet is abnormal when increasing or when indoor temperature departs from from allowed band, be judged as there is state variation in monitored object region, and via wireless communication part 21 or wire communication portion 22 to being registered as the communication terminal of outside of notice destination of information in advance by this situation of email notification (state variation).

Below, the sending action of photographed images that control part 30 carries out and the notification action of state variation are described.

Control part 30, by repeating the movable body check processing shown in Figure 15 as one of main routine, is detected movable body, is identified as pet from the photographed images of gained of being made a video recording by video camera 14.

Namely, as shown in figure 15, in movable body check processing, at S100 (S represents step), photographed images is read in from video camera 14, in S110, the movable body 32 (being in other words pet) (with reference to Fig. 3 (a)) in moving according to the motion vector detection generated around movable body in this photographed images.

Then, in S120 then, generate around movable body 32 that frame 34 ((a) with reference to Fig. 3) around movable body makes it surround in photographed images to detect in S110, temporarily terminate movable body check processing.

In addition, around the movable body generated in S120, frame 34 is represent the position of movable body 32 in photographed images and the data of size.

In addition, the dynamic image data that the photographed images boil down to captured by video camera 14 sends, when requesting photographed images from the communication terminal of outside, sends by control part 30.

Then, when sending this image, control part 30, by performing the amplification Graphics Processing shown in Figure 15, when the pet as movable body 32 stops, generating the dynamic image data being exaggerated this movable body 32 part, and communication terminal externally sends.

That is, in the amplification Graphics Processing shown in Figure 15, first in s 200, frame 34 around the up-to-date movable body generated by movable body check processing is read in.Then in 210, according to the change of frame 34 around this movable body, judge whether movable body 32 stops, wait for that movable body 32 stops thus.

Then, if be judged as that in S210 movable body 32 stops, then S220 is transferred to.In S220, read in the amount (size of frame around n the movable body comprising frame 34 around up-to-date movable body of the n frame of frame size around the movable body that detected in the past by movable body check processing, n: complex values), calculate its mean size (being frame size around mean motion body in detail).

In addition, in S220 then, around the up-to-date movable body read in s 200, surrounding's set and display of frame 34 maintains frame 36.
