Description

  The present invention describes the date, time, place, etc., when a baggage loaded or unloaded on a truck or other vehicle in a courier or the like, forgotten to load or unload, or when the baggage loaded on a truck being stolen was stolen. The present invention relates to a system for tracking and investigating the cause of lost packages.

  Conventionally, as a method of monitoring the collapse or theft of a package loaded in a truck or the like during transportation, the state of the package is photographed with a camera and monitored with a monitor.

  In order to load and unload the luggage, the video, date, and time when the door is opened are recorded and recorded, and the rear image of the parked car is recorded on the VTR, so that the luggage is stolen. In some cases, there is a system that obtains a clue to a criminal by reproducing an image recorded on a VTR.

However, the conventional methods have the following drawbacks.
One video recording medium is a VTR, and it takes time to search for a video to be searched.
Since the data recorded in the 2VTR cannot be encrypted, anyone can view the video, erase the data, and tamper with it.

  In view of the above disadvantages, the present invention encrypts and records and saves the video data of the package being loaded / unloaded with the in-vehicle camera and its date, time, place, etc., and only those who have authority The purpose is to provide a system that can quickly investigate the date, time, place, and cause of lost luggage.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention solves by the following means.
A sensor is attached to a vehicle such as a truck, and when a door for loading and unloading the luggage is opened, a camera mounted on the vehicle such as a truck is used to take an image of the luggage being loaded and unloaded.
2. Compress the video data of the captured baggage, add information that can specify the baggage such as loading / unloading date, time, vehicle number, etc., and save it on a recording medium installed inside the truck.
The video data stored in the recording medium in the three tracks is stored in a database such as a server by a transmission or transport method.
Before entering into a recording medium installed in 4 tracks or a database such as a server, video data is encrypted to ensure security.
5 Search the video data in the database of the server etc. using the vehicle number of the truck loaded with the lost baggage, the loading date of the baggage, the time zone, the place where it seems to have been lost, etc. as keys, and the lost baggage is included. I will extract the video data of the package.
6 Output the video data of the extracted package to the monitor, and identify the video of the lost package by visual inspection.
7 From the video of the baggage, investigate the date, time, place, and cause of the loss.

  Since the date, time, place, and cause of the loss of the package can be known, it becomes easy to search for the lost package, and measures can be taken to reduce the loss of the package.

  In addition, the fact that this system is installed leads to the prevention of theft by the loader / unloader of the package or a third party, and the loading / unloader's reliable loading / unloading awareness of the package. . Handling of the loading / unloading of the load / unloader is handled carefully, and the damage to the load is reduced.

  Furthermore, by encrypting the video data, access from unauthorized persons can be prevented, and video data can be searched and extracted at high speed by entering the database.

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the best mode for carrying out the invention shown in the drawings.

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of a loading / unloading baggage video monitoring system according to the present invention.

  In FIG. 1, reference numeral 101 denotes a track. Reference numeral 102 denotes a door provided for loading / unloading luggage, and reference numeral 103 denotes a luggage for loading / unloading. Reference numeral 104 denotes a camera that captures an image of a load to be loaded and unloaded, and reference numeral 105 denotes a sensor that detects when the door is opened.

  Reference numeral 106 denotes an external storage device that records video captured by the camera 104 as video data. Reference numeral 107 denotes an apparatus for writing video captured by the camera 104 to the external storage device 106 as video data.

  Reference numeral 108 denotes a server that stores video data received from the external storage device 106, 109 denotes an input device that inputs data to the server 108, and 110 denotes a monitor that displays video.

  Here, the operation of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 is a flow chart for explaining the process of taking a video of a load to be loaded / unloaded and storing it in a server.

  In “201” in FIG. 2, when operating this system, the external storage device 106 is attached to the device 107.

  In “202” in FIG. 2, when the door 102 is opened, the sensor 105 detects that the door 102 has been opened.

  In “203” in FIG. 2, when the sensor 105 senses that the door 102 has been opened, the camera 104 is activated to capture an image of the cargo to be loaded and unloaded.

  In “204” in FIG. 2, the camera 104 transmits the video data to the device 107, and the device 107 adds a vehicle number, date, time, etc., compresses the video data, encrypts the data, and performs external storage. 106 is written.

  In “205” in FIG. 2, when moving the video data of the external storage device 106 to the server 108 to the server 108, the process returns to “206” in FIG. 2, and otherwise returns to “202” in FIG. 2.

  The external storage device 106 removed from the device 107 is attached to the server 108. At “206” in FIG. 2, the server 108 reads the video data from the external storage device 106, adds location information, and the like to the database. Write and save.

  The server 108 also manages information on package source information and destination information (address, name, package receipt / delivery time, etc.).

  When an authorized person searches for a lost baggage, input the vehicle number of the truck carrying the lost baggage, the loading date of the baggage, the time zone, the location that seems to be lost, etc. from the input device 109, and the conditions The image of the package corresponding to is displayed on the monitor 110.

  The authorized person searches for the lost baggage from the image of the baggage displayed on the monitor 110 by visual inspection, and investigates the date, time, place, and cause of the loss of the baggage.
