Description

本発明の第１の観点に係る画像モニタリングシステムにあっては、複数ヶ所に設置された複数の監視カメラにより個別に撮影した複数のライブビュー画像を、監視装置が有する表示手段の画面上に各監視カメラの位置関係を反映させて表示する画像モニタリングシステムにおいて、前記複数の監視カメラは、自己位置を示す位置情報を取得する位置情報取得手段と、前記位置情報取得手段により取得された位置情報を前記監視装置に供給する供給手段とをそれぞれ備え、前記監視装置は、前記供給手段によって複数の監視カメラからそれぞれ供給された位置情報を取得する取得手段と、前記取得手段により取得された位置情報に基づいて、前記表示手段の画面上における前記複数のライブビュー画像の各々の表示位置を決定する決定手段と、前記表示手段の画面上における前記複数のライブビュー画像の表示位置を、前記決定手段により決定された表示位置に制御する表示制御手段とを備えたことを特徴とする。
In the image monitoring system according to the first aspect of the present invention, a plurality of live view images individually photographed by a plurality of surveillance cameras installed at a plurality of locations are displayed on the screen of the display means included in the surveillance device. In the image monitoring system that reflects and displays the positional relationship of the monitoring cameras, the plurality of monitoring cameras include position information acquisition means for acquiring position information indicating its own position, and position information acquired by the position information acquisition means. Supply means for supplying to the monitoring device, and the monitoring device acquires the position information respectively supplied from a plurality of monitoring cameras by the supply means, and the position information acquired by the acquisition means. based on a determination means for determining the respective display positions of the plurality of live view images on the screen of the display unit; The display positions of the plurality of live view images on the screen of the serial display means, characterized by comprising a display control means for controlling the display position determined by said determining means.

本発明の第２の観点に係るプログラムにあっては、複数ヶ所に設置された複数の監視カメラにより個別に撮影した複数のライブビュー画像を、監視装置が有する表示手段の画面上に各監視カメラの位置関係を反映させて表示する画像モニタリングシステムの前記監視装置が有するコンピュータに、前記複数の監視カメラの各々から、各監視カメラの自己位置を示す位置情報を取得する処理と、前記複数の監視カメラの各々から取得した位置情報に基づいて、前記表示手段の画面上における前記複数のライブビュー画像の各々の表示位置を決定する処理と、前記表示手段の画面上における前記複数のライブビュー画像の表示位置を、前記決定した表示位置に制御する処理とを実行させることを特徴とする。

本発明の第３の観点に係る画像表示方法にあっては、前記監視カメラのライブビュー画像を取得するステップと、前記監視カメラの識別情報と、当該監視カメラの設置位置に対応する表示位置情報を対応付けて記憶するステップと、記憶された前記表示位置情報に基づく表示位置に、前記表示位置情報に対応付けられた前記識別情報により特定される前記監視カメラにより撮影したライブビュー画像を表示するステップと、を含むことを特徴とする。
In the program according to the second aspect of the present invention, a plurality of live view images individually photographed by a plurality of monitoring cameras installed at a plurality of locations are displayed on the screen of the display means of the monitoring device. A process of acquiring position information indicating the self-position of each monitoring camera from each of the plurality of monitoring cameras in a computer included in the monitoring device of the image monitoring system that reflects and displays the positional relationship; and the plurality of monitoring based on the position information obtained from each camera, and processing for determining the display position of each of the plurality of live view images on the screen of said display means, said plurality of live view images on the screen of the display means And a process of controlling the display position to the determined display position.

In the image display method according to the third aspect of the present invention, the step of acquiring a live view image of the monitoring camera, the identification information of the monitoring camera, and the display position information corresponding to the installation position of the monitoring camera And a live view image captured by the monitoring camera specified by the identification information associated with the display position information is displayed at a display position based on the stored display position information. And a step.
