[0037]
Next, the operation algorithm of the LAN system in this embodiment will be described with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS. Here, each function described in these flowcharts is stored in the form of a readable program code, and operations according to the program code are sequentially executed. It is also possible to sequentially execute operations according to the program code transmitted via the transmission medium. That is, in addition to the recording medium, an operation specific to this embodiment can be executed using a program / data supplied externally via a transmission medium.
[0038]
7 and 9 are flowcharts showing the operation of the admission management server 11 that is started in response to detection of a person on the entrance side.
First, when receiving the detection signal transmitted from the entrance-side human sensor 12, the entrance management server 11 operates the entrance-side image capturing device 13 to acquire a captured image obtained by capturing the entire vicinity of the entrance (step A1) After identifying and enlarging a person image from the captured image, one face image is extracted from the enlarged image (step A2). Then, the image registration database 14 is searched based on the photographed image (face image) (step A3), and the photographed image is compared by comparing the face image with each registered image (face image) in the image registration database 14. The presence or absence of a registered image corresponding to is checked (step A4). In this case, a feature portion is extracted from the captured image and compared with each registered image. At this time, after correcting the captured image to the orientation and size of the face of the registered image, the contour of the face, In addition to individually comparing the shape, position, size, hairstyle, presence / absence and type of glasses, etc. of the mouth, nose, forehead, etc., image comparison is performed by comprehensively comparing them.
[0039]
Here, if it does not correspond to any registered image (if NO is determined in step A4), that is, if the visitor is a non-registered person (first visitor), the person image A clothing portion is extracted from the inside, and the clothing of the person is determined by comparing with a clothing pattern prepared in advance (step A5), and it is checked whether the clothing is for business (step A6). Here, if the first visitor is wearing business clothes, the photographed image (person image) is transmitted to the reception terminal 22 and the security terminal 32 on the entrance side together with a message that the visitor is the first visitor (step A7). . Accordingly, the security officer monitors the first visitor until the first visitor goes to the reception desk, and the receptionist performs the first visitor registration process between the reception terminal 22 and the entrance management server 11. The first visitor registration process will be described in detail later with reference to FIGS.
[0040]
If the clothes are not for business (step A6), the photographed image (person image) is transmitted to the security terminal 32 on the entrance side together with a message indicating that the person is a watched person (step A8). This allows the security guard to monitor the behavior of the first visitor who may be a watchful person.
Then, the admission management server 11 checks whether or not another person is shown in the entire captured image near the entrance (step A9). If another person is shown, the process returns to step A3. Thereafter, the above operation is repeated (steps A3 to A9).
[0041]
On the other hand, if the entrance management server 11 compares the photographed image with the registered image and the attendant is a registrant (step A4), the entrance management server 11 compares the “registration code” and the registered image. The “type level” is acquired from the image registration database 14 (step A10), the current date and time is acquired as the admission date, and an admission management record is generated based on the “registration code”, “admission date”, and “photographed image”. And registered in the admission management database 16 (step A11). Then, the “type level” of the registrant is discriminated (step A12), and it is checked whether it corresponds to “employee”, “entrance / exit trader”, “entrance banner”, or “visitor”.
[0042]
If the type of the visitor is an employee (step A13), the message is not sent to the reception terminal 22 and the security terminal 32 and the entry of the employee is permitted as it is. However, at that time, the personnel management system 4 is accessed. To record the attendance date. That is, the admission management server 11 acquires the “employee number” corresponding to the “registration code” from the employee database 42 by transmitting the “registration code” to the personnel management server 41 (step A14). Is sent to the personnel management server 41, and the time card database 43 is instructed to record the “entry date” corresponding to the employee as the attendance date (step A15).
[0043]
Further, if the type of the visitor is an in / out trader (step A16 in FIG. 8), the in / out trader management database 15 is accessed based on the “registration code”, and “entry condition date / time”, “ After obtaining the “exit condition date” (step A17), the “admission condition date” is compared with the “current date” to check whether the admission condition is met (step A18). Here, if the condition is met, the photographed image (person image) is transmitted to the security terminal 32 on the entrance side together with a message indicating that it is a trader (step A19).
[0044]
In this case, the person in charge of security checks the belongings of the entering / exiting company while confirming the identity with the person image, and if there is no problem, admits the entry and notifies the entrance management server 11 to that effect.
Then, the entrance management server 11 accesses the entrance management database 16 based on this “registration code” and records “exit condition date and time” in the corresponding record (step A20).
[0045]
On the other hand, if the entry condition is not met (step A18), the photographed image (person image) is transmitted to the security terminal 32 on the entrance side together with a message indicating that entry / exit is not permitted (step A21). In this case, the person in charge of security regulates entry of the entering / exiting company while confirming the identity by the person image.
Further, when the type of the visitor is a prohibited entry person (step A22), the person image is transmitted to the entrance-side security terminal 32 together with a message indicating that entry / exit is not permitted (step A21).
[0046]
If the type of the visitor is a visitor (NO in step A22 in FIG. 8), the “visitor name” corresponding to the “registration code” is acquired from the visitor database 23 in the reception management system 2. (Step A23 in FIG. 9), the current date and time are acquired, the reservation registration database 24 is searched based on the “current date and time” and “visitor name”, and the presence or absence of the current reservation record is checked (step A24). If there is a visit reservation (step A25), a message that a visitor (reservation customer) has arrived and the contents of the reservation record are transmitted to the reception terminal 22 together with the photographed image (person image) (step S25). A26). As a result, the person in charge of the reception performs work related to the visit reservation such as guiding the visitor to the reception room.
[0047]
Next, the “in-house contact person name” is read from the reservation registration database 24, this “in-house contact person name” is transmitted to the personnel management server 41, the “contact” is obtained from the employee database 42, and is sent to the in-house contact person. A visit notification is made by e-mail (step A27). Then, the visitor database 23 is accessed, and the “last visit date and time” and “last in-house person name” in the corresponding record are updated (step A28).
If there is no visit reservation (step A25), the "last in-house contact person name" that was met at the previous visit is acquired from the visitor database 23 (step A29), indicating that an unreserved visitor has arrived. The message, the photographed image (person image), and the previous in-house person in charge name are transmitted to the reception terminal 22 (step A30).
[0048]
FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing visitor registration processing on the reception terminal 22 side, and FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing visitor registration processing on the admission management server 11 side.
First, the reception terminal 22 selects a photographed image of the first visitor on the display screen in a state where the photographed image transmitted from the admission management server 11 is displayed and output (step B1), and the first visitor. In addition to the “visitor name” and “in-house contact name” inquired from, the current date and time is entered as the “visit date and time” in the corresponding item position on the display screen (step B2). Then, the "photographed image", "visitor name", "in-house contact name", and "visit date / time" in this display screen are used as data for one record, and a registration request for requesting registration of this record data is admission managed. It transmits to the server 11 (step B3).
[0049]
In this case, the admission management server 11 starts executing the flowchart of FIG. 11 in response to the registration request from the reception terminal 22.
First, the admission management server 11 receives the “photographed image”, “visitor name”, “in-house contact person name”, and “visit date / time” transmitted from the reception terminal 22 (step C1). After newly generating a “registration code” to be assigned to a person (step C2), a registration record having items “registration code”, “photographed face image”, and “type level” is generated, and an image registration database is created. 14 is newly registered (step C3). At this time, the content of “type level” is blank, and is set in batch by batch processing later.
[0050]
Next, the admission management server 11 performs registration processing in the admission management database 16 and the visitor database 23. That is, an entrance management record having the items “registration code”, “entrance date / time”, and “photographed image” is generated and registered in the entrance management database 16 (step C4). Further, a visitor record having items of “registration code”, “visitor name”, “in-house contact person name”, and “visit date / time” is generated and registered in the visitor database 23 (step C5).
[0051]
FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing the operation of the admission management server 11 started to be executed in response to the person detection on the exit side.
First, when the admission management server 11 receives a detection signal transmitted from the person sensor 12 on the exit side, the entrance management server 11 operates the image capturing device 13 on the exit side to acquire a captured image obtained by photographing the entire vicinity of the exit (step). D1) After identifying and enlarging a person image from the captured image, a face image is extracted from the enlarged image (step D2). Then, the admission management database 16 is searched based on the photographed image (face image) (step D3), and the characteristics of the photographed image (face image) and each photographed image in the admission management database 16 are compared. The presence / absence of the corresponding visitors is checked (step D4).
[0052]
As a result, when the image corresponds to one of the visitors, that is, when the visitor registered in the entrance management database 16 leaves (step D4), the corresponding entrance management record is designated, After recording the current date and time as the exit date in the designated record (step D5), the image registration database 14 is accessed based on the “registration code” read from the designated record, and the corresponding “type level” is acquired (step S5). D6). Then, this “type level” is discriminated and it is checked whether it is an employee type (step D7).
[0053]
If the employee leaves the office (step D7), the “registration code” corresponding to the “registration code” is acquired from the employee database 42 by transmitting the “registration code” to the personnel management server 41 (step D8). ), The current date and time (working date and time) is recorded in the record in the time card database 43 corresponding to the “employee number” (step D9).
On the other hand, if the exit is not an attendee registered in the entrance management database 16, that is, if an unconfirmed person exits (step D4), a message indicating that the unconfirmed person has exited is displayed together with a message at the time of exit. The captured image is transmitted to the security terminal 32 (step D10). In this case, the person in charge of security checks the identity of the person leaving the room and inquires about the entrance route while confirming the identity of the person using the photographed image.
[0054]
FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing exit management processing periodically executed by the entrance management server 11.
First, the admission management server 11 obtains the system date and time and performs a regular check to determine whether it is a correct time (step E1). If it is not a correct time, the admission management server 11 checks whether the end time has been reached (step E5). Here, if it is the hour, the admission management database 16 is accessed every hour, the "exit date" is compared with the "current date", and a record that exceeds the exit date is searched (step E2). If there is a corresponding record (step E3), the photographed image at the time of entry is read out and transmitted to the security terminal 32, and an instruction is given to arrange those who remain beyond the exit conditions (step E4). Thereafter, the above-described operation is repeated every hour.
[0055]
On the other hand, when the end time has been reached (step E5), the admission management database 16 is accessed to search for an unexited record in which “exit date” is not recorded (step E6). (Step E7), “registration code” is read from the record, the image registration database 14 is searched based on this “registration code”, and the corresponding “type level” is acquired (step E8). Then, it is determined whether it is an employee type or not (step E9). As a result, if the employee remains, this “registration code” is transmitted to the personnel management server 41, and the “registration code” corresponding to “registration code” is sent from the employee database 42. The “employee number”, “name”, and “contact” are acquired (step E10), and the photographed image at the time of entry is transmitted to the security terminal 32 together with the “name” and “contact” (step E11).
[0056]
In addition, if a person other than the employee remains after the closing time (step E9), the photographed image at the time of entry is transmitted to the security terminal 32 to arrange those who remain beyond the closing time. Instruct what to do (step).
Then, it is checked whether all the unexited persons have been searched, that is, whether the search has been completed up to the last record in the admission management database 16 (step E12). If not completed, the process returns to step E6 to return to the next unexited person Then, the above operation is repeated.
[0057]
As described above, in this embodiment, the admission management server 11 compares the visitor photographed image obtained by photographing the visitor with the image photographing device 13 and each registered person photographed image registered in the image registration database 14. Since the type of the visitor is determined and the entry process to be executed for the visitor is determined according to this type, for example, the detailed entry process is performed according to the employee, the entry / exit company, the part timer, etc. It can be executed, and it is possible to easily realize reliable security management and appropriate reception response without deploying many security personnel and reception personnel, as well as security personnel and reception personnel It is also possible to greatly reduce the burden of
[0058]
In this case, the admission management server 11 determines the notification process for instructing the reception work to the reception terminal 22 as the admission process if there is a need for the admission according to the type of the visitor, and if it is necessary to deal with the security. Since the notification process for instructing the security service to the security terminal 32 is determined as the admission process, for example, depending on the entry / exit trader, transaction stop trader, solicitation trader, etc., the work is assigned to the receptionist and the security officer. It is possible to divide the work required according to the type of the visitor, and it is possible for the full-time staff to reliably and smoothly perform the work.
[0059]
In addition, when it is determined as a result of comparing the visitor photographed image and each registrant photographed image that the person is a non-registered person, the reception terminal 22 and the security terminal 32 are notified that the visitor is the first visitor. For example, the person in charge of reception and the person in charge of security may not be aware of admission of solicitors, suspicious persons, etc. Therefore, it is possible to respond appropriately and promptly to solicitors, suspicious persons and the like.
[0060]
The admission management server 11 instructs the execution of the admission record if the admission person is a temporary authorized person who is temporarily permitted to enter, and if the admission condition is not met, the admission management server 11 Since the fact is notified to the security terminal 32, for example, entry to a part-timer, part-time job, or a temporary entry / exiting trader can be managed with restrictions.
Further, when an entry banned person such as a trade stop trader or the like enters, the security terminal 32 is notified to that effect, so that a quick response to the entry banned person becomes possible.
[0061]
The admission management server 11 refers to the reservation registration database 24 each time a visitor is detected, determines whether or not there is a reservation, and notifies the reception terminal 22 of the presence or absence of the reservation. It becomes.
In addition, when there is a visit reservation, the fact that the visitor has arrived is notified to the terminal on the other side of the visit reservation, so the burden on the receptionist can be reduced and the visitor is kept waiting Without having to, you can quickly call the meeting partner.
In addition, when there is no visit reservation, since the visitor has been notified to the destination terminal that the visitor has visited in the past, for example, the visitor and the visitor In the case of the same, it is not necessary to make a visit reservation each time, the reservation work can be simplified, and the meeting partner can be called quickly.
[0062]
As a result of comparing the exit photographed image obtained by photographing the exit person and the visitor photographed image, the entrance management server 11 records the exit if the two match, and if not matched, the entrance management server 11 notifies the security terminal 321 to that effect. Since notification is made, in addition to entrance / exit management, suspicious persons who have not entered from the regular entrance can be detected at the time of exit, and safety can be further improved.
The admission management server 11 transmits the photographed image of the attendee together with the notification message to the reception terminal 22 and the security terminal 32. While being able to know the business contents reliably, it is possible to easily confirm the target person from a large number.
[0063]
Since the entrance management server 11 records the attendance by accessing the personnel management server 41 when the employee enters, it is possible to record the attendance without requiring a special operation when the employee enters the office. , It will be possible to greatly reduce the burden on employees.
In addition, when a non-registered person enters, the attendee photographed image is registered in the image registration database 14 together with the automatically generated registration court, so that information on the new registrant can be obtained without performing manual work. Can be automatically generated and registered.
[0064]
In addition, since the entrance management server 11 specifies a person image from the captured images obtained by photographing the entire vicinity of the entrance and performs an enlargement process, the feature portion of the face image is extracted from the enlarged image.
