The camera management unit 131 provides a web service to the client computer 110 so that the user can request registration of the IP camera 120 or monitor an image distributed by the video server 150.

The resource collection unit 132 collects the monitored resource status information for a plurality of video servers 150 and provides the collected resource status information to the server selection unit 133 so that the collected resource status information can be used in the server assignment process. For example, the resource collection unit 132 may collect CPU usage, memory usage, network usage, GPU usage, GPU memory usage, and the like of the video server 150.

The server selection unit 133 may assign the camera information extracted from the authentication request message of the IP camera 120 registered in the database 140 and the acquired image information of the plurality of video servers 150 Selects the video server 150, and assigns the selected video server 150 to the IP camera 120 that generated the authentication request message.

The video server 150 is an image processing resource for providing a cloud-based video recording and monitoring service for an image obtained by the IP camera 120 in the local network. The video server 150 includes a service providing unit 151 and a resource monitoring unit 152 ). Among these, the resource monitoring unit 152 monitors the use of the resources held by the resource monitoring unit 152 to generate resource status information, and provides the generated resource status information to the resource collecting unit 132 of the registration server 130. The service provider 151 inquires the database 140 when the connection request message is received from the IP camera 120 to check whether the IP camera 120 is allocated to the IP camera 120, After the video is requested, the streamed video is recorded in the storage on the cloud, and the video streamed by the IP camera 120 is distributed to the client computer 110.

In the embodiment of FIG. 1, the registration server 130 and the image processing server 150 are separated from each other. Both the registration server 130 and the video server 150 are a form of server resources for the video service and the registration server 130 and the video server 150 can be combined into one server.

The authentication unit 123 authenticates the normal video server when the camera connection identification information included in the video request message matches the pre-registered camera connection identification information.

The image processing unit 125 transmits the acquired image to the normally authenticated video server 150 according to the video request message by the video server 150.

A more detailed operation procedure of the IP camera 120 configured in this way will be described in the following description with reference to FIG.

3 is a flowchart illustrating a video service method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3, the method of video service by the registration server 130 includes steps (S201 to S203) of registering an IP camera located in a local network in a database. The method further includes a step (S209 to S211) of confirming whether the IP camera corresponding to the identification information included in the authentication request message is registered in the database. (S207, S215) of selecting a video server to be allocated among the plurality of video servers in accordance with the camera information extracted from the authentication request message of the IP camera registered in the database and the acquired resource status information do. The method further includes a step (S217) of assigning the selected video server to the IP camera that generated the authentication request message.

Referring to FIG. 3, a video service method by the IP camera 120 includes steps S209 and S217 in which an IP camera located in a local network transmits an authentication request message to a registration server on the cloud to allocate a video server on the cloud . The method further includes a step (S219 to S223) of receiving a video request message by transmitting a connection request message to the allocated video server. The method further includes transmitting the image acquired from the local network to the allocated image server according to the image request message (S227).

Hereinafter, a video service process performed in a video service system according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. 1 to FIG.

First, the user accesses the registration server 130 using the client computer 110 and requests registration of the IP camera 120 located in the local network. The camera registration request may be directly requested to the registration server 130, but may proceed via the IP camera 120 (S201).

When such a camera registration request is made, a value for identifying the IP camera 120 is registered using a unique identification number of the camera, and an L2 communication ID such as a MAC (Media Access Control) of the camera is used, User ID information for distinguishing users can be utilized.

It is also possible to select a service to be used when requesting registration of the IP camera 120. [ For example, it is possible to select a recording method (normal recording, schedule recording (schedule profile), recording file holding period, etc.), image analysis service (intrusion detection, camera damage, etc.)

Then, the registration server 130 registers the IP camera 120 in the database 140 using the unique identification number of the IP camera 120 provided when the camera registration request is made. Here, information such as the MAC of the camera, the user ID of the camera user, and the like are registered in the database 140.

In the process of steps S201 and S203, the camera connection identification information may be input to the registration server 130 and registered in the database 140. [ This is to allow the IP camera 120 to be used when the server authentication is performed before the video streaming. For example, the camera connection identification information may be a camera ID and a password, which may be input during the production of the IP camera 120 and may be modified by a user.

When the IP camera 120 is registered in the database 140, the video server 150 monitors whether or not the resources owned by the IP camera 120 are used, generates the resource status information, and transmits the generated resource status information to the registration server 130 to provide. That is, the resource usage of the plurality of video servers 150 is monitored by the registration server 130 (S207).

Meanwhile, when power is supplied to the IP camera 120 and the network is connected, the server connection unit 121 transmits an authentication request message to the registration server 130 for video service. Here, the address of the registration server 130 for authentication may be input during the camera production process and may be modified by the installer of the IP camera 120 (S209).

At this time, the server connection unit 121 of the IP camera 120 uses the unique identification number of the IP camera 120 when requesting camera authentication by transmitting an authentication request message. It is also possible to use the camera meta information (model name, manufacturer, firmware version, etc.), a list of functions that the camera can provide (PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) enabled or not), information for video connection (RTSP Protocol) URI, etc.), image profile information (resolution, FPS, GOP, Bitrate, etc.). In addition, the video-related information can be variously changed depending on the purpose such as recording, live monitoring, mobile, and image analysis.

Also, when there is no response from the server, the IP camera 120 repeatedly transmits an authentication request message according to a predetermined reconnection period. Such a reconnection cycle is set to an initial value at the time of camera production and can be modified by the camera user.

Then, the registration server 130 checks the database 140 with the unique identification number included in the authentication request message to check whether it is a camera registered in advance (S211). At this time, the unregistered camera rejects the authentication request, and the IP camera 120, which is denied the authentication request, can request the reconnection according to the setting of the reconnection time according to the predetermined period. Here, the reconnection time may be registered in the IP camera 120 in advance, or may be stored in the authentication rejection message and sent to the IP camera 120. [

When the registration server 130 confirms the unique identification number, the registration server 130 transmits the camera information (providing available list, maker / model name information, video access information, image profile information, etc.) And stores the camera connection identification information registered in step S203 in the database 140 (S213).

In addition, the registration server 130 calculates the required resource usage amount using the monitoring information on the video server 150 in step S207 and the camera information included in the authentication request message in step S209, and according to the calculated required resource usage amount And selects an optimal video server 150 for the video service among the plurality of video servers 150. Here, the camera information to be used in the allocation of the optimal server can use the recording profile information (Bitrate, recording file maintenance period, etc.) and calculate the required resource usage by utilizing the average resource usage information per service determined during service operation. For example, a method of selecting an optimal video server 150 may be a server having a smallest load (a server that uses a small amount of resources) among available servers, S215).

Then, the registration server 130 assigns the selected video server 150 to the IP camera 120 in step S215. In addition, the server allocation status information is stored in the database 140 so that the image server 150 can recognize the server allocation status information (S217).

Here, the registration server 130 may allocate the image server 150 separately for each service function when the IP camera 120 is allocated. For example, the recording / monitoring service may be assigned to a server for recording, the intelligent analysis service may be assigned to a server for analysis, and the PTZ control service may be assigned to another server for a camera control setting. However, it can be allocated to the same server depending on the resource status.

Then, the server connection unit 121 of the IP camera 120 transmits a connection request message to the video server 150 allocated from the registration server 130 (S219).

In order to confirm whether the IP camera 120 is the camera assigned to itself, the video server 150 searches the database 140 for the unique identification number of the camera included in the connection request message, and stores the camera information stored in step S213 (Step S221).

Here, the video server 150 rejects the connection request for the unregistered IP camera 120, and the IP camera 120 to which the connection request is rejected transmits the authentication request message of step S209 to the registration server 130 again do.

Next, the video server 150 requests a video to the IP camera 120 that is normally registered and assigned. At this time, the video server 150 can request video streaming using video access information (RTSP URI, image profile, etc.) and camera connection identification information confirmed in the database 140. For example, the video streaming request information may include reconnection information (reconnection cycle, number of times of reconnection, etc.) to be used when the connection is disconnected. In addition, when the video access information is various for recording, live monitoring, mobile use, analysis, etc., the user can refer to the preset On / Off information. Here, the video server 150 may request the camera setting change or the camera control (PTZ control) without requesting the video streaming (S223).

Then, the authentication unit 123 of the IP camera 120 performs authentication for confirming whether the corresponding server is registered in advance with respect to the video streaming request by the video server 150. That is, if the pre-registered camera connection identification information in step S203 matches the camera connection identification information transmitted from the video server 150 in step S223, the server is normally authenticated as a pre-registered server (S225).

Then, the image processing unit 125 of the IP camera 120 transmits the image obtained in the local network using the video streaming request information received in step S223, in a streaming manner from the video server 150 (S227).

The server connection unit 121 of the IP camera 120 may reconnect using the reconnection information provided by the video server 150 when the network is unstable due to an unstable network or a failure occurs in the video server 150 do. At this time, if the reconnection information is not received from the video server 150, the reconnection information set in the IP camera 120 itself can be utilized. For example, the IP camera 120 may attempt to reconnect at an interval of the reconnection period, and may transmit an authentication request message to the registration server 130 again upon the number of times of reconnection.

Here, when changing the camera setting, the IP camera 120 transmits only the setting change success or failure to the video server 150, and operates according to the PTZ control message without transmitting any information during the PTZ control.

Then, the video server 150 stores the video streaming received from the IP camera 120 in the storage, and records the corresponding video. Here, the storage may be a local disk included in the server itself or an external storage (S229).

In addition, the video server 150 may distribute the video received in step S223 to the client computer 110 or other servers requesting live monitoring (S231).

As described above, according to the embodiment of the present invention, a new connection method for allocating image processing resources to a camera or providing images acquired by a camera to image processing resources is provided. For example, a registration server provides a video server that records images acquired in a local network to storage on the cloud, or a new connection method in which an IP camera is allocated from a registration server.

Therefore, even if the local network in which the IP camera is located does not provide the public IP or does not provide the NAT function or the port forward function to the public IP, it is possible to perform the image recording in the cloud image server without changing the network configuration or complicated setting. Monitoring, and the like.
