And when the output connection link is selected, as shown in FIG. 7B , the user terminal 400 plays the corresponding image.

8 is a diagram illustrating a state in which a plurality of user terminals are shared with respect to a specific image in the CCTV management system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in (a) of FIG. 8 , the administrator uses the manager terminal 300 , the user terminal 410 of "A", the user terminal 420 of "B", and the user terminal 430 of "C". ), the user terminal 440 of "D" and the user terminal 450 of "E" may be designated at once. Then, the control unit 250 uses the messenger app to control the user terminal 410 of "A", the user terminal 420 of "B", the user terminal 430 of "C", and the user terminal 440 of "D". ) and transmits the video connection link to the user terminal 450 of "E".

As shown in (b) of FIG. 8 , when the administrator designates the user terminal 410 of "A" using the manager terminal 300, the controller 250 uses the messenger app to control the user of "A". The video connection link is transmitted to the terminal 410 .

The user terminal 410 of "A" that has received the connection link copies and transmits the connection link to the user terminal 420 of "B".

The user terminal 420 of "B" that has received the connection link is the user terminal 430 of "C", the user terminal 440 of "D", and the user terminal 410 of "A" in the same way as the user terminal 410 of "A". The connection link is copied to the user terminal 450 of " and delivered to each.

That is, according to an embodiment of the present invention, a third party is designated by an administrator and receives a connection link from a video sharing server or a connection link from another third party.

When the connection link received in step S340 is clicked, the user terminal 400 generates a push event signal and transmits the generated push event signal to the video sharing server 200 (S350).

In this case, the push event signal includes IP information of the user terminal 400 .

Next, the control unit 250 counts the number of times the push event signal is received ( S360 ).

In other words, the controller 250 presets the number of times for the push event signal. In addition, when the number of push event signals received from the plurality of user terminals 400 corresponds to a preset number, the controller 250 releases the corresponding connection link and the image link.

For example, limiting the number of times to share an image to 4, and as shown in FIG. 8, the user terminal 410 of "A", the user terminal 420 of "B", the user terminal of "C" ( 430), it is assumed that the connection link is transferred to the user terminal 440 of "D" and the user terminal 450 of "E".

And, the user terminal 410 of "A", the user terminal 420 of "B", the user terminal 430 of "C", the user terminal 440 of "D", and the user terminal 450 of "E" ), when receiving a push event signal sequentially, the control unit 250 generates a control signal for disconnecting the connection link and the image transmitted to the user terminal 450 of "E". Then, the control unit 250 transmits the generated control signal and notification information corresponding thereto to the user terminal 450 of “E”. In this case, the notification information is provided in the form of voice or text.

On the other hand, when the same user terminal 400 transmits the push event signal several times, the control unit 250 counts only the first received push event signal using the IP information included in the push event signal, and then Push event signals are ignored and not counted.

Then, when the preset time arrives or the number of times for the push event time is reached, the controller 250 releases the connection between the connection link and the image (S370).

The controller 250 presets the time for monitoring the shared image and the number of times for the push event signals received from the plurality of user terminals 400 . Then, when receiving the "live video sharing" request signal from the manager terminal 300, the control unit 250 counts the time and the push event signal.

And when the preset time arrives, the control unit 250 generates a control signal for disconnecting the connection link and the image.

For example, as shown in (b) of FIG. 8 , a preset time at the time when the user terminal 420 of “B” transmits the connection link of the video to be shared to the user terminal 430 of “C” Assume that you have arrived at Then, the control unit 250 is a control signal for releasing the connection between the connection link and the image transmitted to the user terminal 410 of "A", the user terminal 420 of "B", and the user terminal 430 of "C" create Then, the control unit 250 transmits the generated control signal and corresponding notification information to the user terminal 410 of "A", the user terminal 420 of "B", and the user terminal 430 of "C". .

That is, even if the user terminal 430 of "C" receives the connection link from the user terminal 420 of "B", it cannot play the image through the connection link.

In addition, since the control unit 260 counts the push event signal from the time when the "live video sharing" request signal is received, when the shareable time for the video arrives, the control unit 250 determines the number of push event signals. Even if it does not reach the preset number of times, the connection link and the image are disconnected.

As described above, the CCTV management system according to the present invention generates and provides an arbitrary link for an image to be shared, but allows a third party to monitor the real-time image without a separate authentication procedure, and selects a You receive a link through any one of the messenger apps, and you can watch the video recorded through the DVR/NVR equipment just by selecting the received link, increasing convenience.

In addition, the CCTV management system according to the present invention can set the monitoring time for the shared video, and when the preset time arrives, the shared video can be automatically discarded to maintain the security of the video. have.
