Hereinafter, first to fourth embodiments in the ticket gate system having the above-described configuration will be described.
(First embodiment)
Next, a first embodiment in the ticket gate system will be described.
In the first embodiment, the simple ticket checker 3 includes a human detection sensor 37, and the simple ticket checker 3 passes no billing (based on a ticket check process for a ticket medium and a person detection process for detecting a human by a human detection sensor ( Passage without presenting the ticket medium) and NG traffic (passage with no judgment (NG)) are detected. In addition, when the simple ticket gate 3 according to the first embodiment detects no-passage, it generates no-tag information including the time when the no-passage occurred as history information, and the generated no-tag information is monitored by the monitoring board. 4 to the upper server 1.

  In the first embodiment, the photographing device 5 photographs the surroundings of the simple ticket gate 3 and transmits the photographed video to the upper server 1 as video information associated with the time counted by the clock. The host server 1 extracts a video when no bill is passed based on the no-tag information from the simple ticket checker 3 and the video information from the photographing device 5. Further, the upper server 1 has a function of specifying a no-tender by using the extracted video when no-tickness is passed, and specifying an addict who repeats no-tickness-passing.

The host server 1 according to the first embodiment extracts the NG traffic image based on the NG traffic information from the simple ticket checker 3 and the video information from the imaging device 5, and extracts the extracted no-card traffic. Identify the no-tender by the video, or identify the addict who repeats no-troll traffic.

Next, an operation example of the simple ticket gate 3 in the first embodiment will be described.
FIG. 7 is a flowchart for explaining an operation example of the simple ticket gate 3 in the first embodiment.
The processor 31 of the simple ticket gate 3 according to the first embodiment receives a ticket medium presented by the user by the ticket processing unit 36 and detects a person by the human detection sensor 37 during normal operation. For example, the card RW as the ticket processing unit 36 transmits a response request signal and receives a response from the IC card presented in a predetermined communication area. When the user presents an IC card as a ticket medium in the communication area, the card RW as the ticket processing unit 36 starts communication with the IC card presented by the user. Thereby, the processor 31 of the simple ticket gate 3 detects the IC card presented by the user.

  When a ticket medium is detected (S1, YES), the processor 31 of the simple ticket gate 3 reads information (ticket information) used for the ticket processing recorded on the ticket medium by the ticket processing unit 36 (S2). When the information is read from the ticket medium, the processor 31 determines whether or not the user is allowed to pass based on the information read from the ticket medium as the passage determination for the ticket medium (S3). When the result of the traffic determination is obtained, the processor 31 executes a ticket gate process according to the result of the traffic determination (S4). For example, when it is determined that the admission is permitted, the processor 31 records information indicating that it is in the admission state on the ticket medium using the ticket processing unit 36. Further, when the passage is permitted by withdrawing the usage fee from the ticket medium as the SF (stored fair) card, the processor 31 performs a process of using the ticket processing unit 36 to withdraw the usage fee from the ticket medium. . Further, when it is determined that the passage is not possible, the processor 31 performs a ticket gate process such as notifying the user that the passage is impossible.

  While performing the ticket gate process, the processor 31 of the simple ticket gate 3 determines whether the user who presented the ticket medium has been detected by the human detection sensor 37 (S5). When the user presenting the ticket medium is detected by the human detection sensor 37 (S5, YES), the processor 31 determines whether the passage determination for the ticket medium is determined to be permitted (determination OK) (S6). ). When it is determined that the person detected by the human detection sensor 37 is determined to be allowed to pass (S6, YES), the processor 31 associates information indicating that the person is allowed to pass with the time when the ticket gate process is executed. The ticket gate processing history information (ticket gate processing information) is generated, and the generated ticket gate processing information is recorded in the storage unit 34 or the RAM 33 (S7).

  Further, when it is determined that the person detected by the human detection sensor 37 is determined to be impassable (determination NG) (S6, NO), the processor 31 passes while the person is impassable (NG traffic). Judge that it was done. If the NG traffic is determined, the processor 31 generates NG traffic information as ticket gate processing information in which information indicating NG traffic is associated with the time when the ticket gate processing is executed, and the generated NG traffic information is stored in the storage unit 34. (Or RAM 33) (S8). For example, the NG traffic information is information including information indicating the time (date and time) when the NG traffic occurred, the station where the NG traffic occurred, the identification information (number machine) of the simple ticket gate where the NG traffic occurred.

  The processor 31 of the simple ticket checker 3 monitors the detection result of the person by the human detection sensor 37 regardless of whether or not the ticket medium is detected. Accordingly, when a person is detected without detecting the ticket medium, that is, when the human detection sensor 37 detects a person who is not presenting the ticket medium (S9, YES), the processor 31 determines that the detected person is It is a no-tender and it is determined that no-tag traffic has occurred. If it is determined that no-tag traffic has occurred, the processor 31 obtains no-tag information as ticket-tick processing information associating information indicating that no-tag traffic has occurred with the date and time when the no-card traffic occurred (detected). The billless information is generated and recorded in the storage unit 34 (or RAM 33) (S10). For example, the no-tag information is information including information indicating the time (date and time) when no-tag traffic occurred, the station where the no-tag traffic occurred, the identification information (number machine) of the simple ticket gate where the no-tag traffic occurred. .

  Further, the processor 31 of the simple ticket checker 3 checks whether or not the condition for transmitting the ticket check processing information is satisfied, and each time the transmission condition is satisfied, no ticket information and NG traffic information as ticket check processing information stored in the storage unit 34. Is sent to the host device. For example, the processor 31 transmits the no-tag information and the NG traffic information to the monitoring panel 4 as a higher-level device every predetermined cycle. Further, the processor 31 may transmit the generated information to the monitoring panel 4 every time it generates the no-tag information or the NG traffic information. Further, the processor 31 may transmit the tagless information and the NG traffic information to the monitoring panel 4 in response to a request from the monitoring panel 4 or the upper server 1. On the other hand, the monitoring panel 4 transfers the history information from the simple ticket gate 3 to the upper server 1. The monitoring panel 4 may hold history information from the simple ticket gate 3 in the storage unit 44. That is, when it is determined that the processor 31 of the simple ticket checker 3 is to transmit the no-tag information (S11, YES), it is time to transmit the no-tag information to the monitoring panel 4 (S12) and transmit the NG traffic information. If it is determined (S13, YES), NG traffic information is transmitted to the monitoring board 4 (S14).

  As described above, the simple ticket checker according to the first embodiment repeatedly executes the processing of S1-S14, thereby generating the no-tag information and the NG traffic information, and the generated no-tag information and the NG traffic. The process of transmitting information to the host device is continuously performed. As a result, the monitoring board or the upper server can acquire the no-tag information indicating the no-tag traffic detected by the simple ticket gate and the NG traffic information indicating the NG traffic.

Next, an operation example of the imaging device 5 in the first embodiment will be described.
FIG. 8 is a flowchart for explaining an operation example of the photographing apparatus 5 in the first embodiment.
The photographing device 5 according to the first embodiment has a photographing unit (camera) for photographing a person passing through a passage as an entrance / exit where the simple ticket gate 3 is installed. The photographing device 5 is assumed to always photograph a photographing range including a passage at a predetermined frame rate as a surveillance camera. However, the imaging device 5 may capture the passage when a person is detected by a separately provided sensor or the like.

  That is, the processor 51 of the imaging device 5 captures an imaging range including a passage by the imaging unit 56 (S21). The processor 51 records the image (video) captured by the imaging unit 56 in the storage unit 54 as video information associated with the time (time stamp) (S22). Further, the processor 51 adds not only the photographing time (date and time) but also information such as identification information (unit) indicating the simple ticket gate 3 in the photographing range of the photographing unit 56 to the video information. May be.

  The processor 51 determines whether or not to transmit the video information stored in the storage unit 54 to the higher-level device depending on whether or not a predetermined transfer condition is satisfied (S23). For example, the processor 51 may transmit the video information to the upper server 1 every predetermined period, or may transmit the video information in response to a request from the upper server 1. The video information may be stored in a portable storage medium (portable storage medium), and the upper server 1 may read (acquire) the video information from the portable storage medium.

  When it is determined that the video information is to be transferred (S23, YES), the processor 51 transmits the video information stored in the storage unit 54 to the host server 1 as the host device (S24). Further, the processor 51 may transmit the video information to the monitoring board 4. In this case, the monitoring board 4 may transfer the video information from the imaging device 5 to the upper server 1 or may be held in the storage unit 44 of the monitoring board 4.

  As described above, the imaging apparatus according to the first embodiment associates the video obtained by imaging the imaging range including the entrance / exit entrance (passage) with the imaging time by repeatedly executing the processes of S21 to S24. The generated video information is generated, and the generated video information is transferred to the upper server 1 or the monitoring board 4. As a result, the upper server 1 or the monitoring board 4 acquires video information including the video of the passage as the entrance / exit where the simple ticket gate 3 is installed and the video shooting time (time stamp) from the video camera 5. it can.

Next, a process for detecting a no-tender by the upper server 1 according to the first embodiment will be described.
FIG. 9 is a flowchart for explaining an example of the process of detecting a no-tender in the upper server 1 according to the first embodiment.
The host server 1 according to the first embodiment extracts a video at the time of no-tag traffic based on the no-tag information from the simple ticket checker 3 and the video information from the photographing device 5. Furthermore, the host server 1 will explain an operation example in the case of executing processing such as identification of a no-tender and identification of an addicted no-tender from a video when no-tender is passed (detection processing of a no-tender). Shall.

  The processor 11 of the host server 1 according to the first embodiment receives the ticket processing information (no-ticket information and NG traffic information) as history information of the simple ticket checker 3 from the monitoring panel 4 by the communication unit 15 (S31). . Further, the processor 11 of the upper server 1 receives the video information from the imaging device 5 through the communication unit 15 (S32). The history information and the video information may be acquired at a predetermined timing or may be received at an arbitrary timing. History information from the simple ticket gate and video information from the video device are stored in the storage unit 14.

  After acquiring the history information from the simple ticket checker 3, the processor 11 of the upper server 1 extracts the no-ticket information from the acquired history information (S33). When the no-tag information is extracted (S34, YES), the processor 11 specifies the date and time (time) when the no-tag passage is detected from the extracted no-tag information. After specifying the date and time when the tagless passage was performed, the processor 11 extracts from the video information the video during the tagless passage based on the specified date and time when the tagless passage was performed (S35). In addition, the processor 11 may extract a video of a predetermined time zone (for example, a predetermined time before and after the time when a no-tender is detected) from the video information based on the date and time when the no-tag was passed.

  After extracting the no-pass video, the processor 11 extracts the person specifying information for specifying the person (the no-tender) from the extracted no-pass video, and uses the extracted person specifying information for the no-tender. A person specifying process for specifying the person detected as is performed (S36). The person specifying process is not limited to a specific method. For example, face matching can be applied as the person specifying process. When a person is specified by face matching, the processor 11 detects a face image of the person from the video, and extracts a face feature amount obtained from the detected face image as person specifying information. Furthermore, the processor 11 performs collation (face collation) between the facial feature amount extracted as the person specifying information and the registrant's facial feature amount stored in advance in the storage unit 14. Here, the registrant (person to be collated) that stores the facial feature amount in the storage unit 14 in advance may be a separately selected suspicious person, or a person who has previously been determined to be a no-tender. Also good.

  When the result of the person specifying process detected as a no-tender is obtained, the processor 11 records the result of the person specifying process together with the extracted video in the storage unit 14 (S37). For example, when it is determined that the person is a specific person (registrant), the processor 11 stores information indicating the specified person. Further, when it is not possible to determine that the person is a specific person, the processor 11 stores that the person detected as a no-tender is not determined as the specific person.

  When the person specifying process is executed, the processor 11 adds the result of the person specifying process and totals the extracted no-tag information (S38). The processor 11 accumulates data obtained by tabulating the no-tag information in the storage unit 14 as a processing result. For example, the processor 11 counts the number of times no-card traffic has occurred for each station where no-card traffic has occurred, a simple ticket gate where no-card traffic has occurred, or a time zone when no-card traffic has occurred. In addition, when the tagless person can be identified, the processor 11 counts the number of times that the specified person has passed without a tag, and stores the totaled information and the image of the person as the aggregated data.

  Further, the processor 11 is an addict who repeatedly performs no-tag passage according to the number of times that the specified person (no-tender) has made no-tag passage when the no-tag person can be identified by the person identification process. It is determined whether there is (S39). When it is determined that the detected no-tag is an addict (S39, YES), the processor 11 notifies an alarm that the no-tag addict is detected (S40). For example, the processor 11 outputs an addict's video (face image) or the like by the output device 2 (printer 2A, display device 2B), so that the output device 2 notifies an alarm in a state where the addict's video is displayed. You may do it. Further, the processor 11 may notify the alarm to the monitoring panel 4 to which the simple ticket gate 3 that detects the person who has been determined to be an addict is connected, and the monitoring panel 4 may notify the addict's alarm.

  Further, when the no-tag information extracted from the history information disappears (S34, NO), the processor 11 outputs the total result (processing result) of the no-tag information stored in the storage unit 14 by the output device 2 (S41). ) And finish the process of detecting the no-tender. For example, the processor 11 can present data summarizing the occurrence of no-tag traffic by displaying the tabulated result of the no-tag information on the display device 2B printed on paper by the printer 2A.

  According to the above-described processing for detecting a no-tender, the higher-level server according to the first embodiment is configured so that a no-tick person related to a no-tender (no-tender) detected by a simple ticket gate equipped with a human detection sensor. Information can be acquired. As a result, the host server counts the no-tag information, extracts the no-tag traffic video from the video information captured by the imaging device, and identifies the person who passed the no-tag from the extracted video. It becomes possible to identify the addict of bill passage.

  Note that the monitoring board may acquire the video information from the photographing apparatus, and the monitoring board may perform the process of detecting a no-tender as shown in FIG. Further, when the monitoring board performs the process of detecting the no-tender, the monitoring board notifies the higher-level server of the detection result of the no-tender, the video of the no-tender, the judgment result of the addicted person without the tag. Thereby, it is possible to monitor the no-ticket person in the entire ticket gate system.

Next, an NG passer detection process by the upper server 1 according to the first embodiment will be described.
FIG. 10 is a flowchart for explaining an example of NG passer detection processing by the upper server 1 according to the first embodiment.
In the above-described processing for detecting a no-tender as shown in FIG. 9, the example of extracting the video at the time of no-tick passage and specifying the no-tender and the no-tick addict has been described. The higher order server 1 may perform extraction of video during NG trafficking, specification of an NG passer and specification of an NG passer. Here, an operation example in the case where the upper server 1 executes processing for extracting video during NG trafficking, specifying an NG passer, and specifying an NG passerby (NG passer detection process), etc. explain.

  As shown in FIG. 10, the processor 11 of the host server 1 according to the second embodiment receives the history information of the simple ticket checker 3 (ticket check process information including NG traffic information) from the monitoring panel 4 (S51). Video information is received from the imaging device 5 (S52). After acquiring the history information from the simple ticket gate, the processor 11 extracts NG traffic information from the history information (S53). When the NG traffic information is extracted (S54, YES), the processor 11 specifies the date and time (the time when the NG traffic was detected) when the NG traffic was detected from the extracted NG traffic information. When the NG traffic time is specified, the processor 11 extracts, from the video information, an NG traffic video (an NG passer's video) based on the specified NG traffic time (S55). For example, the processor 11 extracts, from the video information, a video in a predetermined time zone based on the time when the NG passer is detected.

When the NG pass video is extracted, the processor 11 extracts person specifying information for specifying the NG passer from the extracted NG pass video, and the person detected as the NG passer by the extracted person specifying information. A person specifying process for specifying the ID is performed (S56). This person specifying process may be any process that can specify a person as an NG passer-by from the video, and is not limited to a specific method. For example, a person specifying process such as a face matching process can be applied to a person specifying process for specifying an NG passerby.
When the result of the person specifying process for the NG passer is obtained, the processor 11 records the result of the person specifying process together with the extracted video at the time of the NG pass in the storage unit 14 (S57).

  When the person specifying process is executed, the processor 11 adds the result of the person specifying process and totals the extracted NG traffic information (S58). The processor 11 stores data obtained by collecting the NG traffic information in the storage unit 14 as a processing result. For example, the processor 11 counts the number of occurrences of NG traffic for each station in which NG traffic has occurred, a simple ticket gate in which NG traffic has occurred, or a time zone in which NG traffic has occurred. When the NG passer can be identified, the processor 11 counts the number of times the specified person has made NG pass, and stores the totaled information and the video of the person who has passed NG in the storage unit 14. You may do it.

  In addition, when the NG passer can be specified by the person specifying process, the processor 11 is an addict who repeatedly performs NG pass according to the number of times the specified person (NG passer) has made NG pass. Is determined (S59). If it is determined that the person is an NG traffic addict (S59, YES), the processor 11 notifies an alarm that an NG traffic addict has been detected (S60). For example, the processor 11 outputs a video (face image) of a person detected as an addict by the output device 2 together with a warning of an NG traffic addict. Thereby, the printer 2A or the display device 2B as the output device 2 can display the video of the addict and notify the alarm. Further, the processor 11 may notify an alarm to the monitoring panel 4 to which the simple ticket checker 3 through which the person who has been determined to be an addict passes NG. In this case, you may make it the monitoring board 4 alert | report the alarm to the effect that the NG traffic addict was detected.

  In addition, when there is no more NG traffic information extracted from the history information from the simple ticket checker 3 (S54, NO), the processor 11 outputs an aggregation result (processing result) of the NG traffic information accumulated in the storage unit 14 as an output device. 2 (S61), and the NG passer detection process is terminated. For example, the processor 11 can present the data that summarizes the occurrence status of NG traffic by causing the printer 2A to print a summary result of the NG traffic information on a sheet of paper or to display it on the display device 2B.

  According to the NG passer detection process as described above, the host server according to the first embodiment passes in a state where it is determined that the pass is impossible at the place where the simple ticket gate is installed (simple ticket gate station). It is possible to detect a person (NG passerby). As a result, the higher-level server extracts an NG passer's video from the video information captured by the imaging device, or specifies an NG passer's addict by specifying an NG passer from the extracted video. Is possible.

  Note that the monitoring board may acquire the video information from the photographing apparatus, and the monitoring board may perform the second operation example (NG passer detection process) as shown in FIG. In this case, the monitoring board notifies the upper server of the detection result of the NG passer, the video of the NG passer, the determination result of the NG passer addict. Thereby, it is possible to monitor NG passers in the entire ticket gate system.

  Further, the upper server 1 may perform the NG passer detection process shown in FIG. 10 together with the above-described no-tag detection process shown in FIG. When the host server 1 performs both the NG passer detection process and the no-tick person detection process, the ticket gate system according to the first embodiment is a place where the simple ticket gate 3 is installed (simple ticket gate station). It is possible to detect not only a billless person but also an NG passer. As a result, the ticket gate system according to the first embodiment extracts and records images of no-ticketers and NG passers at the place where the simple ticket checker 3 is installed, and It becomes possible to specify an addict.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, a ticket gate system according to the second embodiment will be described.
In the ticket gate system according to the second embodiment, it is assumed that the simple ticket gate 3 includes a human detection sensor 37. In addition, the simple ticket gate 3 according to the second embodiment performs a ticket gate process for a ticket medium and a human detection process for detecting a human by a human detection sensor as separate processes. That is, the simple ticket gate 3 according to the second embodiment does not perform determinations such as no-ticket traffic and NG traffic that combine ticket gate processing and human detection by a human detection sensor.

  That is, the simple ticket checker 3 according to the second embodiment, as history information, the ticket check processing information that associates the result of the ticket check processing for the ticket medium presented by the user with the time when the ticket check processing is executed, and human detection. Human detection information in which the detection result of the person by the sensor 37 is associated with the time when the person is detected is generated, and the generated history information (ticket gate processing information and human detection information) is sent via the monitoring panel 4 to the upper server 1. Send to. As a result, in the ticket gate system according to the second embodiment, the upper server 1 determines whether no-ticket traffic or NG traffic (based on the history information (ticket processing information and person detection information) from the simple ticket gate 3 ( Detection of no-tag and NG passers-by).

  The host server 1 according to the second embodiment detects no-tag traffic based on the history information from the simple ticket checker 3 and extracts the detected video during no-tag traffic from the video information from the imaging device 5. To do. Further, the upper server 1 specifies a no-tender and an addict of no-tender based on the extracted video at the time of no-tender. Further, the upper server 1 detects NG traffic based on the history information from the simple ticket checker 3 and extracts the detected video during NG traffic from the video information from the imaging device 5. Also in this case, the upper server 1 specifies an NG passer and an NG passer.

Next, an operation example of the simple ticket gate 3 in the second embodiment will be described.
FIG. 11 is a flowchart for explaining an operation example of the simple ticket gate 3 in the second embodiment.
The simple ticket gate 3 according to the second embodiment executes a ticket gate process for a ticket medium presented by the user and a person detection process by the human detection sensor 37. That is, in the simple ticket gate 3 according to the second embodiment, during normal operation, the ticket processing unit 36 receives a ticket medium presented by the user and detects a person by the human detection sensor 37.

  When a ticket medium presented by the user is detected (S211, YES), the processor 31 of the simple ticket checker 3 uses information (ticket information) used for ticket check processing recorded on the ticket medium by the ticket processing unit 36. Read (S212). When the information is read from the ticket medium, the processor 31 determines whether or not the user can pass based on the information read from the ticket medium (S213). When the result of the traffic determination is obtained, the processor 31 executes a ticket gate process according to the result of the traffic determination (S214). When the ticket gate process is executed, the processor 31 of the simple ticket checker 3 generates, as history information, ticket gate process history information (ticket gate process information) that associates the result of the ticket gate process with the time (date and time) at which the ticket gate process is executed. Then, the generated ticket gate processing information is recorded in the storage unit 34 (or RAM 33) (S215). For example, the ticket gate processing information is information including not only the processing result and time but also information such as identification information (unit) indicating the station that performed the ticket gate processing and the simple ticket gate 3 that performed the ticket gate processing.

  Further, the processor 31 of the simple ticket gate 3 detects a person based on the detection signal from the human detection sensor 37 independently of the processes of S211 to S215. Based on the detection signal from the human detection sensor 37, the processor 31 determines whether a human passing through the passage (entrance / exit entrance) is detected (S216). When a human is detected by the human detection sensor 37 (S216, YES), the processor 31 uses, as history information, human detection history information (corresponding to a detection result indicating that a person is detected) and a time when the person is detected ( (Person detection information) is generated, and the generated person detection information is recorded in the storage unit 34 (or RAM 33) (S217). For example, the person detection information is information including information such as the time (date and time) at which a person is detected, the station, identification information (unit) indicating the simple ticket gate 3 that has detected the person, and the installed station.

  Further, the processor 31 of the simple ticket checker 3 determines whether or not to transmit history information (ticket check process information and person detection information) to the host device based on a predetermined transfer condition (S218). When it is determined that the history information is to be transmitted to the higher-level device (S218, YES), the processor 31 transmits the history information to the higher-level device (S219). For example, the processor 31 transmits history information to the monitoring panel 4 as a higher-level device every predetermined cycle. Further, the processor 31 may transmit the history information to the monitoring panel 4 each time history information is generated. On the other hand, the monitoring panel 4 may transfer the history information from the simple ticket checker 3 to the upper server 1 or may be held in the storage unit 44 of the monitoring panel 4.

  The processor 31 of the simple ticket checker 3 repeatedly executes the processing of S211 to S219, thereby detecting the ticket using the ticket medium presented by the user, detecting the person passing through the entrance / exit, and the ticket processing information and the person. A process of transferring history information including detection information to the host device is continuously performed. Thereby, the monitoring board 4 or the high-order server 1 can acquire the result of a ticket check process and person detection in the simple ticket checker 3 as history information.

Next, an operation example of the imaging device 5 in the second embodiment will be described.
The imaging device 5 according to the second embodiment may perform an operation similar to the operation example illustrated in FIG. 8 described in the first embodiment. That is, the processor 51 of the photographing device 5 photographs the photographing range including the passage as the entrance / exit where the simple ticket gate 3 is installed by the photographing unit 56. The processor 51 records the image (video) captured by the imaging unit 56 in the storage unit 54 as video information associated with the time (time stamp). When the video information transfer condition is satisfied, the processor 51 transmits the video information stored in the storage unit 54 to the host server 1 as a host device. Note that the video information may be transmitted to the monitoring panel 4.
By such an operation, the higher-level server 1 or the monitoring board 4 according to the second embodiment includes an image obtained by photographing the passage as the entrance / exit where the simple ticket gate 3 is installed from the photographing device 5 and the photographing time. Video information can be acquired.

Next, a process for detecting a no-tender by the upper server 1 according to the second embodiment will be described.
FIG. 12 is a flowchart for explaining an example of a no-ticker detection process in the upper server 1 according to the second embodiment.
The high-order server 1 according to the second embodiment extracts a video at the time of no-passage based on history information from the simple ticket checker 3 and video information from the photographing device 5. Here, processing including extraction of video during no-tag traffic, identification of a no-tender, and identification of an addicted no-tender performed by the host server 1 as the second embodiment (detection of no-tender) Processing) will be described.
That is, the processor 11 of the upper server 1 receives the history information (ticket check process information and person detection information) of the simple ticket checker 3 from the monitoring panel 4 through the communication unit 15 (S231). Further, the processor 11 of the upper server 1 receives the video information from the imaging device 5 through the communication unit 15 (S232). The history information and the video information may be acquired at a predetermined timing or may be received at an arbitrary timing. History information from the simple ticket gate 3 and video information from the photographing apparatus are stored in the storage unit 14.

  When the history information is acquired, the processor 11 detects a person (no-ticketer) who has passed without a ticket based on the ticket gate processing information and the person detection information included in the acquired history information (S233). For example, the processor 11 associates the ticket gate processing information with the person detection information based on the time or the like, and determines whether the person detected by the human detection sensor has executed the ticket gate processing. If it is detected by this determination that the human detection sensor 37 has detected a person who is not executing the ticket gate process, the processor 11 determines that the person has passed without a ticket.

  When the no-tag passage is detected from the history information (S234, YES), the processor 11 extracts the detected no-pass video from the video information (S235). For example, the processor 11 specifies the time at which the human detection sensor 37 detects a person (bedless person) determined to have passed without a tag from the human detection information, and uses the time at which the specified tagless person is detected as a reference. A video of a predetermined time zone (for example, a predetermined time before and after the time when a billless person is detected) is extracted from the video information. In addition, the processor 11 may extract an image of the time when the no-tender is detected from the video information.

After extracting the no-pass video, the processor 11 extracts the person specifying information for specifying the person (the no-tender) from the extracted no-pass video, and uses the extracted person specifying information for the no-tender. A person specifying process for specifying the detected person is performed (S236). As in S36, the person specifying process is not limited to a specific method as long as it is a process that can specify a person as a billless person from the video. For example, a person specifying process such as a face matching process can be applied to a person specifying process for specifying a no-tender.
When the identification process result of the person detected as a no-tender is obtained, the processor 11 records the result of the person identification process in the storage unit 14 together with the extracted video at the time of no-tagged passage (S237).

  When the person specifying process for the tagless person is executed, the processor 11 sums up the extracted tagless information including the result of the person specifying process (S238). The processor 11 stores data obtained by tabulating the no-tag information in the storage unit 14 as a processing result. For example, the processor 11 counts the number of times no-card traffic has occurred for each station where no-card traffic has occurred, a simple ticket gate where no-card traffic has occurred, or a time zone when no-card traffic has occurred. Further, when a billless person can be identified, the processor 11 counts the number of times the identified person has passed without a tag, and records the tabulated data in association with the video of the person in the storage unit 14. You may do it.

  Further, the processor 11 is an addict who repeatedly performs no-tag passage according to the number of times that the specified person (no-tender) has made no-tag passage when the no-tag person can be identified by the person identification process. It is determined whether there is (S239). If it is determined that the person is an addict without a tag (S239, YES), the processor 11 notifies an alarm indicating that an addict without a tag is detected (S240). For example, the processor 11 outputs a video (face image) of an addict by a printer 2A or a display device 2B as the output device 2. Thereby, the output apparatus 2 can alert | report an alarm with the video of an addict. Further, the processor 11 may notify an alarm to the monitoring panel 4 to which the simple ticket checker 3 through which a person who has been determined to be an addict passes without a bill. In this case, the monitoring board 4 may notify an alarm indicating that a no-passing addict has been detected.

  If there is no information that can be detected as no-tag traffic (S234, NO), the processor 11 outputs the total result (processing result) of the no-tag information stored in the storage unit 14 by the output device 2 (S241). End the process of detecting the no-tender. For example, the processor 11 transmits display (print) data of the total result of the no-tag information to the output device 2. As a result, the printer 2A as the output device 2 can print the tabulation results on a sheet, or the display device 2B can display the tabulation results, and presents data summarizing the occurrence of billless traffic. It becomes possible.

  According to the above-described processing for detecting a no-tick person, the host server according to the second embodiment is a person who has passed without a tag at a place where a simple ticket gate equipped with a human detection sensor is installed (simple ticket gate station). (Bandless person) can be detected. Further, the host server aggregates the information related to the no-tag traffic detected (no-tag information), extracts the video of the NG passer-by from the video information photographed by the imaging device, or the person who made the NG pass from the extracted video It becomes possible to specify the NG traffic addict by specifying.

  Note that the monitoring board may be configured to acquire video information from the imaging device, and the monitoring board may perform the process of detecting a no-tender as shown in FIG. Further, when the monitoring board performs the process of detecting the no-tender, the monitoring board notifies the higher-level server of the detection result of the no-tender, the video of the no-tender, the judgment result of the addicted person without the tag. Thereby, it is possible to monitor the no-ticket person in the entire ticket gate system.

Next, an NG passer detection process performed by the upper server 1 according to the second embodiment will be described.
FIG. 13 is a flowchart for explaining an example of NG passer detection processing by the upper server 1 according to the second embodiment.
In the above-described detection process of the no-tender, the example of extracting the video at the time of no-tickness passage and identifying the no-tender and the no-tick addict has been described, but the upper server 1 according to the second embodiment You may make it perform the extraction of the image | video when a person passes (NG traffic) with the passage determination being impossible (determination NG), and the identification of the NG passer and the NG pass addict. Here, processing for extracting video during NG traffic, identification of an NG passer, identification of an NG passer, etc. (NG passer detection processing) executed by the host server 1 as the second embodiment ).

  As shown in FIG. 13, the processor 11 of the host server 1 according to the second embodiment receives the history information (ticket gate processing information and person detection information) of the simple ticket gate 3 from the monitoring board 4 (S251), and shoots. Video information is received from the device 5 (S252). The processor 11 detects a person (NG passerby) who has passed through the ticket gate processing information and the person detection information included in the history information while being determined as NG (S253). For example, the processor 11 extracts from the ticket gate processing information what is determined to be NG, associates the ticket processing time determined as NG with the person detection information, and the person who has passed the determination NG is human It is determined whether it is detected by the detection sensor 37. If it is detected by this determination that the human detection sensor 37 has detected a person who has passed with the determination NG, the processor 11 determines that there has been NG traffic.

  When NG traffic is detected (S254, YES), the processor 11 extracts the video during NG traffic from the video information (S255). For example, the processor 11 determines from the human detection information the time at which the human detection sensor 37 detects a person (NG passer) that is determined to have passed NG, and the predetermined time with reference to the time at which the NG passer is detected. The video of the band is extracted from the video information.

When the NG pass video is extracted, the processor 11 extracts person specifying information for specifying the NG passer from the extracted NG pass video, and the person detected as the NG passer by the extracted person specifying information. The person specifying process for specifying is performed (S256). The person specifying process may be any process that can specify a person as an NG passer-by from the video, and is not limited to a specific method. For example, a person specifying process such as a face matching process can be applied to a person specifying process for specifying an NG passerby.
When the result of the person specifying process for the person detected as an NG passer is obtained, the processor 11 records the result of the person specifying process in the storage unit 14 together with the extracted video during the NG pass (S257).

  When the person specifying process for the NG passer is executed, the processor 11 totals the extracted NG pass information including the result of the person specifying process (S258). The processor 11 stores data obtained by collecting the NG traffic information in the storage unit 14 as a processing result. For example, the processor 11 counts the number of occurrences of NG traffic for each station in which NG traffic has occurred, a simple ticket gate in which NG traffic has occurred, or a time zone in which NG traffic has occurred. If the NG passer can be identified, the processor 11 counts the number of times the identified person has performed NG traffic, and records the totaled data and the video of the person in the storage unit 14 in association with each other. You may do it.

  In addition, when the NG passer can be specified by the person specifying process, the processor 11 is an addict who repeatedly performs NG pass according to the number of times the specified person (NG passer) has made NG pass. Is determined (S259). If it is determined that the person is an NG traffic addict (S259, YES), the processor 11 notifies an alarm that an NG traffic addict has been detected (S260). For example, the processor 11 outputs a video (face image) of an addict by a printer 2A or a display device 2B as the output device 2. Thereby, the output apparatus 2 can alert | report an alarm while displaying the video of an addict.

As described above, the simple ticket gate 3 according to the third embodiment does not include a function (human detection sensor) for detecting a passing person. That is, the simple ticket checker 3 according to the third embodiment executes a ticket check process according to a ticket medium presented by the user without a function of detecting a passing person.

  In the simple ticket gate 3 according to the third embodiment, the ticket processing unit 36 detects the ticket medium presented by the user during normal operation. When the ticket medium presented by the user is detected (S311: YES), the processor 31 of the simple ticket gate 3 reads information (ticket information) used for the ticket processing recorded on the ticket medium by the ticket processing unit 36. (S312). When the information is read from the ticket medium, the processor 31 determines whether or not the user can pass based on the information read from the ticket medium (S313). When the result of the traffic determination is obtained, the processor 31 executes a ticket gate process according to the result of the traffic determination (S314). When the ticket gate process is executed, the processor 31 of the simple ticket checker 3 generates history information (ticket gate process information) of the ticket gate process associating the result of the ticket gate process with the time when the ticket gate process is executed as history information. The generated ticket gate processing information is recorded in the storage unit 34 or the RAM 33 (S315).

  Further, the processor 31 of the simple ticket checker 3 determines whether or not to transmit history information (ticket check process information and person detection information) to the host device based on a predetermined transfer condition (S318). When it is determined that the history information is to be transmitted to the host device (S318, YES), the processor 31 transmits the history information to the host device (S319). On the other hand, the monitoring board 4 according to the third embodiment may transfer the history information from the simple ticket gate 3 to the upper server 1 or hold it in the storage unit 44 of the monitoring board 4. May be.

  As described above, the simple ticket checker 3 according to the third embodiment repeatedly executes the processing of S311 to S319, thereby detecting the ticket gate processing by the ticket medium presented by the user and the person passing through the entrance / exit. The process and the process of transferring the history information including the ticket gate process information and the person detection information to the host device are continuously performed. Thereby, the monitoring board 4 or the high-order server 1 can acquire the result of a ticket check process and person detection in the simple ticket checker 3 as history information.

Next, an operation example of the imaging device 5 in the third embodiment will be described.
The imaging device 5 according to the third embodiment may perform an operation similar to the operation example illustrated in FIG. 8 described in the first embodiment. That is, the processor 51 of the photographing apparatus 5 according to the third embodiment photographs the photographing range including the passage as the entrance / exit where the simple ticket gate 3 is installed by the photographing unit 56. The processor 51 records the image (video) captured by the imaging unit 56 in the storage unit 54 as video information associated with the time (time stamp). The processor 51 determines whether or not the video information transfer condition is satisfied. When the video information transfer condition is satisfied, the processor 51 transmits the video information stored in the storage unit 54 to the upper server 1 as the upper device. Note that the video information may be transmitted to the monitoring panel 4.

Next, a process for detecting a no-tender by the upper server 1 according to the third embodiment will be described.
FIG. 15 is a flowchart for explaining an example of a no-ticker detection process by the higher-level server 1 according to the third embodiment.
The host server 1 according to the third embodiment extracts a video when no tag is passed, based on the history information from the simple ticket checker 3 and the video information from the photographing device 5, specifies the tagless person, Executes a process for detecting a tagless person including processing for identifying an addict. In the third embodiment, the history information from a simple ticket checker that does not include a human detection sensor does not include human detection information. For this reason, in the third embodiment shown in FIG. 15, the bidless person detection process is changed from the video information to the passage (entrance / exit) to the no-tag detection process described in the first embodiment as shown in FIG. The process includes a person detection process for detecting a person who has passed through the mouth) and a process for generating person detection information indicating the person detected by the person detection process.

  That is, the processor 11 of the host server 1 according to the third embodiment receives the history information (ticket gate processing information) of the simple ticket gate 3 from the monitoring panel 4 through the communication unit 15 (S331), and receives video information from the imaging device 5. Is received (S332). When the video information is received (acquired), the processor 11 of the upper server 1 performs a process of detecting a person from the video included in the received video information (S333). The processor 11 executes processing for detecting a person from a video included in video information using processing for detecting a person or a part of a person from an image such as face detection processing or silhouette detection processing.

  For example, the processor 11 may detect a person when detecting an image to be detected as a human face from a video by face detection processing. Further, the processor 111 may detect a person when detecting an image from which a silhouette of a person is determined by a silhouette detection process. Further, the processor 11 may detect an object moving in the entrance direction or the exit direction in the passage as a person. Note that the process of detecting a person from a video is not limited to a specific method.

  When a person is detected from the video included in the video information, the processor 11 specifies the time when the image where the person is detected is taken. When the time when the image where the person is detected is taken is specified, the processor 11 generates human detection information indicating that the person is detected at the specified time (S334). The processor 11 executes the processes of S333 and S334 for all the videos included in the received video information, and stores the generated human detection information in the storage unit 14.

  When the human detection information is generated from the video information, the processor 11 passes through the ticket detection processing information included in the history information from the simple ticket checker 3 and the human detection information generated from the video information from the photographing device 5 without passing the bill. (Tenderless) is detected (S335). For example, the processor 11 associates the person detection information obtained from the video information with the ticket processing information from the simple ticket checker 3 and determines whether or not each detected person has executed the ticket checking process. To detect.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that there is no-passage (S336, YES), the processor 11 extracts a video during no-passage from the video information (S337). For example, the processor 11 extracts, from the video information, a video of a predetermined time zone based on the time when a person who has been determined to be a no-tag is taken as a reference when the no-tag is passing (no-tag).

After extracting the no-pass video, the processor 11 extracts the person specifying information for specifying the person (the no-tender) from the extracted no-pass video, and uses the extracted person specifying information for the no-tender. The person detected as is identified (S338). As in S36, the person specifying process is not limited to a specific method as long as it is a process that can specify a person as a billless person from the video. For example, a person specifying process such as a face matching process can be applied to a person specifying process for specifying a no-tender.
When the identification process result of the person detected as a no-tender is obtained, the processor 11 records the result of the person identification process in the storage unit 14 together with the extracted video at the time of no-tagged passage (S339).

When the person specifying process for the tagless person is executed, the processor 11 sums up the extracted tagless information including the result of the person specifying process (S340). The processor 11 stores data obtained by tabulating the no-tag information in the storage unit 14 as a processing result. For example, the processor 11 counts the number of times no-card traffic has occurred for each station where no-card traffic has occurred, a simple ticket gate where no-card traffic has occurred, or a time zone when no-card traffic has occurred. Further, when a person without a bill can be identified, the processor 11 sums up the number of times the identified person has made a billless pass, and stores the summed data and the video of the person in the storage unit 14. May be. Also,
Further, the processor 11 is an addict who repeatedly performs no-tag passage according to the number of times that the specified person (no-tender) has made no-tag passage when the no-tag person can be identified by the person identification process. It is determined whether or not there is (S341). If it is determined that the person is an addict without a tag (S341, YES), the processor 11 notifies a warning that a addict without a tag has been detected (S342). For example, the processor 11 outputs a video (face image) of an addict by a printer 2A or a display device 2B as the output device 2. Thereby, the output apparatus 2 can alert | report an alarm while displaying the video of an addict. Further, the processor 11 may notify an alarm to the monitoring panel 4 to which the simple ticket checker 3 through which a person who has been determined to be an addict passes without a bill. In this case, the monitoring board 4 may notify an alarm indicating that a no-passing addict has been detected.

  If there is no information that can be detected as no-tag traffic (S336, NO), the processor 11 outputs the total result (processing result) of the no-tag information stored in the storage unit 14 by the output device 2 (S343). End the process of detecting the no-tender. For example, the processor 11 outputs data for printing or displaying the total result of the no-tag information to the output device 2. As a result, the printer 2A as the output device 2 prints the tabulation results on paper, or the display device 2B displays the tabulation results, thereby presenting data summarizing the occurrence of billless traffic. It becomes.

  According to the process for detecting a no-tender in the third embodiment as described above, the upper server detects a person (no-tender) who has passed the no-tick at the place where the simple ticket gate is installed (simple ticket gate station). can do. As a result, the higher-level server aggregates the no-tag information, extracts the no-tender video from the video information captured by the imaging device, identifies the no-tender from the extracted video, It becomes possible to identify a person.

  Note that the monitoring board may be configured to acquire video information from the imaging device, and the monitoring board may perform the process of detecting a no-tender shown in FIG. In this case, the monitoring board notifies the upper server of the detection result of the no-tender, the video of the no-tender, the judgment result of the addict of no-tender. Thereby, it is possible to monitor the no-ticket person in the entire ticket gate system.

The host server 1 according to the third embodiment uses the human detection information obtained from the video information to perform processing such as video extraction at the time of NG traffic, specification of an NG passer, and specification of an NG passer addict. NG passer-by detection processing can be performed.

  As shown in FIG. 16, the processor 11 of the host server 1 according to the third embodiment receives the history information (ticket gate processing information) of the simple ticket gate 3 from the monitoring panel 4 (S351), and the video from the imaging device 5 Information is received (S352). Upon reception (acquisition) of the video information, the processor 11 of the upper server 1 performs human detection processing from the video information and generation of human detection information based on the human detection processing by the same processing as S333 and S334 (S353, S334). S354), the generated human detection information is stored in the storage unit 14.

When the human detection information is generated from the video information, the processor 11 detects a person (NG passerby) who has passed with the determination NG based on the human detection information generated from the video information and the ticket gate processing information included in the history information. (S355). When NG traffic is detected (S356, YES), the processor 11 extracts the detected video during NG traffic from the video information (S357). When the NG traffic image is extracted, the processor 11 extracts person specifying information for specifying a person (NG passer) from the extracted NG traffic image, and detects the NG passer by the extracted person specifying information. A person specifying process for specifying the specified person is performed (S358). This person specifying process may be any process that can specify a person as an NG passer-by from the video, and is not limited to a specific method. For example, a person specifying process such as a face matching process can be applied to a person specifying process for specifying an NG passerby.
When the result of the person specifying process for the person detected as an NG passer is obtained, the processor 11 records the result of the person specifying process in the storage unit 14 together with the extracted video during the NG pass (S359).

  When the person specifying process for the NG passer is executed, the processor 11 adds the result of the person specifying process and totals the extracted NG pass information (S360). The processor 11 stores data obtained by collecting the NG traffic information in the storage unit 14 as a processing result. For example, the processor 11 counts the number of occurrences of NG traffic for each station in which NG traffic has occurred, a simple ticket gate in which NG traffic has occurred, or a time zone in which NG traffic has occurred. If the NG passer can be identified, the processor 11 counts the number of times the identified person has performed NG traffic, and records the totaled data and the video of the person in the storage unit 14 in association with each other. You may do it.

  In addition, when the NG passer can be specified by the person specifying process, the processor 11 is an addict who repeatedly performs NG pass according to the number of times the specified person (NG passer) has made NG pass. Is determined (S361). When it is determined that the person is an NG traffic addict (S361, YES), the processor 11 notifies a warning that an NG traffic addict has been detected (S362). For example, the processor 11 outputs a video (face image) of an addict by a printer 2A or a display device 2B as the output device 2. Thereby, the output apparatus 2 can alert | report an alarm while displaying the video of an addict. Further, the processor 11 may notify an alarm to the monitoring panel 4 to which the simple ticket checker 3 through which the person who has been determined to be an addict passes NG. In this case, you may make it the monitoring board 4 alert | report the alarm to the effect that the NG traffic addict was detected.

  When there is no detectable NG traffic information (S354, NO), the processor 11 outputs the total result (processing result) of the NG traffic information accumulated in the storage unit 14 by the output device 2 (S363). The passer-by detection process ends. For example, the processor 11 outputs the aggregation result of the NG traffic information to the output device 2 as print or display data. Thereby, the printer 2A as the output device 2 can print the aggregation result on a sheet, or the display device 2B can display the aggregation result, and can present data summarizing the occurrence of NG traffic. It becomes.

  According to the above-described NG passer detection process, the host server of the third embodiment can be installed at a place where a simple ticket gate is installed (simple ticket gate station) even if the simple ticket gate is not provided with a human detection sensor. NG passers in) can be detected. As a result, the host server of the third embodiment aggregates NG traffic information, extracts NG passer images, specifies NG passers from the extracted video, and specifies NG passer addicts. It becomes possible to do.

  Note that the monitoring board may be configured to acquire video information from the imaging apparatus, and the monitoring board may perform the NG passer detection process as shown in FIG. In this case, the monitoring board notifies the upper server of the detection result of the NG passer, the video of the NG passer, the determination result of the NG passer addict. This makes it possible to monitor NG passers in the entire ticket gate system.

  Further, the higher order server according to the third embodiment may perform the NG passer detection process as shown in FIG. 16 together with the no-tick person detection process as shown in FIG. When the host server 1 according to the third embodiment performs the processing as shown in FIG. 16 and the processing as shown in FIG. 15, the ticket gate system according to the third embodiment has the simple ticket gate 3 Even if a human detection sensor is not provided, it is possible to detect a no-ticket person and an NG passer-by at a place where a simple ticket gate is installed (simple ticket gate station).
