BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention
Alternatively, the present invention relates to an instruction display system and an instruction transmission system for the instruction display system between the image display device and the television camera device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In filming and recording of TV programs, etc.
When a person who gives an instruction (hereinafter referred to as an instructor) gives an instruction to an instructed person such as a cameraman who gives these instructions, a voice instruction such as a speaker, an intercom, or a real voice or a dial Instructions are given by presentation,
It is difficult for the instructed person to understand the instruction regarding the image size and the subject position on the screen when actually taking a picture only with such an instruction, and it is difficult to convey the intention of the instructor to the instructed person accurately. May cause trouble or delay in the work.

[0003]

In the method of transmitting an instruction from the instructor side to the instructed person side by presenting a voice, a dial, etc., as in the above-mentioned prior art, in particular, the photographed image size or the subject position on the screen, It is difficult to respond to an instruction regarding instruction information (hereinafter referred to as arbitrary information) arbitrarily determined by the instructor side,
Since it is difficult for the instructor's intention to be reliably transmitted to the instructed person,
There is a drawback that it takes a relatively long time for the designated person to act with a wrong judgment or to understand the instruction. It is an object of the present invention to eliminate these drawbacks and mix an instruction from an instructor to an instructed person with an image display device for a captured image so that the instructed person can easily understand the image and display the image.

[0004]

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the overall configuration of the present invention. An instruction from an instructor 1 to an instructed person 2 is sent to an image display device 4, 5 via a signal generator 3. It is indicated that it is transmitted by displaying it together with the subject image. A description of this will be given below. As shown in FIG. 2, when the instructor 1 does not give an instruction, the mixer 6
Since only the video signal 8 from the video control system 7 is input, the video signal 8 is displayed as the video images 9 and 10 on the image display devices 4 and 5, and the instructed person 2 sees the video image 10 as it is. Become. When giving instructions,
As shown in FIG. 1, the instructor 1 looks at the image 9 from the image display device 4, issues an instruction 11 of arbitrary information, and the signal generator 3 generates a character / graphic signal corresponding to the instruction 11 to generate a generated signal 12. The video signal 8 from the video control system 7 is mixed by the mixer 6, and the mixed video signal 13 is mixed with the image display device 4,
5, the mixed image 14 is displayed on these, and the designated person 2
The instruction 15 of arbitrary information is transmitted to the user.

[0005]

As a result, since the instruction information from the instructor is displayed as an image, the instructed person can easily understand the intent of the instructed person and the error in communication of intention between the instructed person and the instructed person is reduced. The time required for understanding can be shortened.

EXAMPLE An example of the present invention will be described below. FIG. 3 shows an instruction display system and instruction transmission system of arbitrary information between the sub-adjustment room of the broadcasting station and the studio. Sub adjustment room 16
The director 17 inside is the video 1 on the television monitor 18.
9, when an arbitrary information instruction 11 is given using the signal generator 3, the same video control system as the signal 12 generated from the signal generator 3 corresponding to this instruction and sent to the television monitor 18 The video signal 8 from 7 is mixed in the mixer 6, and the mixed video signal 13 is transmitted to the television monitor 18 and the viewfinder 21 and the television monitor 22 of the television camera in the studio 20, and is arbitrarily input from the director 17. The information instruction 11 is displayed as a mixed image 23 on the television monitors 18 and 22 and the viewfinder 21 of the television camera, and the arbitrary information instruction 15 is given to the cameraman 24 and the staff 25, respectively.
Is transmitted.

FIG. 4 shows an instruction display system and instruction transmission system of arbitrary information between a sub-adjustment room of a broadcasting station and a relay site (including a relay vehicle). Director 17 in sub-adjustment room 16
When the user sees the video 19 on the television monitor 18 and gives an arbitrary information instruction 11 by using the signal generator 3, the generated signal 12 from the signal generator 3 corresponding to this instruction is sent to the television monitor 18. And the video signal 8 from the same video control system 7 are mixed by the mixer 6, and the mixed video signal 13 is mixed with the television monitor 18 and the relay vehicle 26.
The television monitor 27 in the inside and the television monitor 29 of the relay site 28 and the viewfinder 30 of the television camera, and the arbitrary information instruction 11 from the direc- tory 17 as the mixed video 23 is transmitted to the television monitor 18,
27, 29 and viewfinder 3 of television camera
0 is displayed, and the arbitrary information instruction 15 is transmitted to the staffs 31, 32 and the cameraman 33, respectively. On the contrary, from the staff 31 in the relay vehicle 26 to the staff 3 in the sub adjustment room 16.
Similarly, when the staff 31 looks at the image 35 of the television monitor 27 and gives an arbitrary information instruction 37 using the signal generator 36, the signal generated from the signal generator 36 corresponding to this instruction is transmitted to the staff 4. 38 and the video signal 8 from the same video control system 7 that is sent to the television monitor 27 are mixed in the mixer 6, and are mixed into the television monitor 27 and the television monitor 18 in the sub adjustment room 16 as a mixed video signal 39. The arbitrary information instruction 37 transmitted from the staff 31 is displayed on the television monitors 18 and 27 as the mixed video 40, and the arbitrary information instruction 41 is transmitted to the staff 34.

[0008] Next, how to specifically specify arbitrary information will be described.
A specific example of a signal generator that generates a generated signal corresponding to this instruction will be described with reference to FIG. 5 and the like. For example, it is assumed that the screen of the television monitor 18 in the sub-adjustment room 16 shown in FIG. 3 has a yellow flower field spread all over, and a state in which only one white flower is blooming. Here, the director 17 wants the cameraman 24 to zoom in and shoot a white flower from such an image. However, the viewfinder 2 of the television camera
Since the brightness of white and yellow is close to each other on the black and white monitor of No. 1, it is difficult to distinguish between white and yellow flowers, and it is difficult for the cameraman 24 to immediately recognize which flower is indicated by voice.
At that time, the director 17 moves the mouse of the input device 3a of the signal generator 3 and instructs the arrow generated from the character generator 3b to point to a white flower on the monitor screen. As a result, the generated arrow signal 12 is mixed with the video signal 8 by the mixer 6, and an arrow pointing to a white flower can be seen on the screen of the viewfinder 21 of the television camera. Understood, the photographer 24 can immediately zoom in on the white flower.

It is also assumed that the screen of the television monitor 18 shown in FIG. 4 shows a sea bather who is bustling on the beach. Here, the director 17 wants the photographer 33 to zoom in on the walking of the mother holding the child among the bathers. However, the viewfinder 30 of the television camera and the television monitor 2
It is difficult for the cameraman 33 to recognize which parent and child is accompanied by just looking at 9, and may be mistaken for another parent and child. At that time, the director 17 operates the light pen of the input device 3a of the signal generator 3 to mark the parent and child in the monitor screen with a light pen. As a result, the generation signal 12 of the O mark generated from the character generator 3b is mixed with the video signal in the mixer 6, and the O mark is attached to the corresponding parent and child on the screen of the viewfinder 30 of the television camera. You can understand the contents of instructions exactly.

[0010]

With the instruction display system and the instruction transmission method of the present invention, it is possible to reduce mistakes and shorten the time required for understanding in the intention transmission between the instructor and the instructed person. It can contribute to the improvement of work efficiency.
