It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the sorted first keyword is queried based on the object information stored by the information storage unit; but if previously set (or has a default) for determining the object information, The filter condition can also be configured to use the filter condition as one of the keyword query conditions of the above keywords (including the first keyword and the auxiliary keyword). The keyword of the attribute information of the specified attribute is queried to set the sorting factor. The advantage is that it avoids displaying a large amount of object information and the sorting order of the corresponding setting in the display part, which brings inconvenience of the adjustment order, and is searched by the keyword. The condition further simplifies the sorting keywords obtained by the query and avoids the inconvenience of sorting settings caused by the display of redundant information.

Step S103, determining a sort order of the object information. The order determining unit is configured to determine a sort order of the subject information stored in the information storage unit. When the sorting factor is a sorting rule, the sort determining unit is used for the subject information stored in the information storage unit, for example, extracting a keyword and sorting the subject information according to the sorting rule of the keyword to determine The sort order of the subject information. When there are a plurality of keywords, sorting is performed according to the first keyword and the rule, and then the subject information having the same first keyword is sorted according to the second keyword, and so on.

In this example, since the sorting factor set in step S102 is the sorting order of each attribute information based on the subject information stored in the information storage unit, the sorting of the subject information may be performed according to the sorting order of each attribute information, and each of the objects is determined. Sort order of the subject information; If the data file to which the subject information of the sort order is attached is directly generated in step S102, the subject information may not be sorted.

Further, the step of setting the sorting factor (S102) is not necessary, and the sorting order may be determined based on a pre-stored sorting factor such as a default. Further, in one embodiment, the object information to which the sort order information is added is stored in advance in the information storage unit (such as the flash memory 9), and the order determining unit determines the follow-up according to the sort order information attached to the subject information. Sort order of the subject information; the added sort order information is, for example, identifiable sorting information, such as numerable sorting information such as numbers, letters, codes, etc.; may be attached as a form of attribute information of the subject information; or It may be added in the form of index information corresponding to the subject information; or the subject information may be stored in a data file or a predetermined address in the storage medium, and may also be regarded as a form in which sort order information is added.

The sorting order of the subject information can also be determined by sorting the subject information according to a default sorting rule (e.g., according to the time attribute of the subject information). Further, the subject instruction information generated by the predetermined number of subject information may be displayed on the display unit, and the sort order may be determined by sorting the subject instruction information by a cross key or a touch screen and a drag operation.

Step S104, object information as special subject information is specified.

The information specifying unit (control unit 10) is configured to specify subject information as special subject information for obtaining a photograph of the special display based on the subject information stored in the information storage unit. The body indication information; a preferred embodiment, based on the sorting order, specifies the subject information "substation 1 device area 1 device IC phase" of the first order in the sorting order as the special subject information.

In addition, in other embodiments, the control unit 10 monitors whether or not there is an operation instruction for selecting the special subject information; here, when the operation instruction is confirmed, the selected subject instruction information is photographed correspondingly. The body information is designated as the special subject information; the display control unit is configured to control the display unit to display a predetermined number of subject instruction information based on the plurality of subject information stored in the information storage unit; the information specifying unit is based on the user The selection, the subject information in which the special subject information is specified. For example, in the subject instruction information shown in the subject information display field 801 of FIG. 8, the user can select one of the subject indication information by the operation unit 11, and the control unit 10 instructs the subject information. The corresponding subject information is specified as special subject information. In addition, the user can also enter the new subject indication information display interface by turning the page or moving the scroll bar to select the subject indication information.

In step S105, the image data obtained by the imaging unit 1 is transmitted to the temporary storage unit 6. The image processing unit 5 performs predetermined processing on the image data captured by the imaging unit 1 to obtain image data of the image, and stores the image data in the temporary storage unit 6. In step S106, the control unit 10 controls the display unit 4 to display the subject information obtained by the special subject information specified by the information specifying unit while displaying the video data generated by the video data.

Here, the common indication of the subject indication information and the image in the display interface may be superimposed on the image and/or not superimposed on the image.

Specifically, the subject indication information obtained by displaying only the specified special subject information is displayed, for example, as shown in FIG. In particular, when the display is not limited to the subject information obtained by the predetermined number of subject information of the special subject information, the display is specifically displayed in a display manner different from the other subject indication information. The subject indication information obtained by the specified special subject information. In a preferred embodiment, the display control unit controls the display unit based on the object information stored in the information storage unit (which is determined when the task is determined) and the sorting order of the subject information determined by the ranking determining unit. Displaying the image generated by the image data, and sorting the subject indication information obtained by displaying a predetermined number of subject information in a sorting order, wherein the display is different from the other subject indication information. The subject indication information obtained based on the specified special subject information is displayed.

As shown in the display interface 801 in FIG. 8, the control unit 10 controls to sort and display the subject indication information obtained by displaying a predetermined number of subject information, and the underline mark of the "substation 1 device area 1 device IC phase" to distinguish For other subject indication information, it is also possible to use a difference in display position, color, background, size, font, character description, etc., which is convenient for the user to distinguish from other subject indication information. .

In a preferred embodiment, the display control unit displays the predetermined information for generating the subject indication information in the subject information in a hierarchical manner, that is, displays the attribute information corresponding to the predetermined hierarchy and each level. The hierarchical display is displayed, for example, in a tree shape, as shown in the subject information column 1001 in FIG. 10, and the control section 10 divides the subject indication information into attribute information of the substation, the equipment area, the device type, and the specified attribute of the respective categories. The specified three layers are displayed in accordance with the prescribed position; and the specially displayed subject indication information 1002 is superimposed on the image, which is convenient for the user to observe.

Specifically, the display control unit 2 controls the image processing unit 2 to synthesize the image data of the image generated by the captured image data and the image data of the subject indication information obtained by the specified specific subject information. The synthesized image data is stored in the temporary storage unit 6; then, the control and display unit 3 displays the combined image data on the display unit 4. As shown in FIG. 9, the synthesis is to superimpose the subject indication information in the image. In addition, when there is another predetermined instruction information, the control image processing unit 2 captures the image data of the image generated by the obtained image data, and the image data of the object information of the specially displayed subject information obtained by specifying the specific subject information. (When there is a specially displayed logo, the image data including the logo, as shown in the underline of the subject indication information in FIG. 8), and the image data of other specified indication information are synthesized; and the display control unit 3 controls the synthesized The image data is displayed on the display unit 4. As shown in Fig. 8, the composition combines the subject indication information and other indication information with the image. The other instruction information such as a predetermined number of subject information, progress information, sort order, and the like, the date on which the display unit 4 needs to be displayed, the battery capacity, and the like.

The subject instruction information obtained based on the subject information may be obtained by all or part of the subject information, and the information for obtaining the subject indication information in the subject information may be defined in advance. Composition. The sort order number corresponding to the subject information may or may not be displayed.

The control unit 10 serves as a progress statistic unit for the number and current of the subject information (the determined subject information when the task is determined, or the number of the serial number according to the sorting sequence, etc.) stored in the information storage unit. The specified special subject information is used to count the shooting progress information; the progress information displayed in the progress information 803 and 802 as shown in 801 of FIG. 804; Note that, in FIG. 8, in the case where the sort order number of the specially designated subject information has been displayed, the sort order number may also constitute progress information with the total number of subject information "15" displayed only.

Step S107, the control unit determines whether there is a switching instruction operation. If not, the steps S105-S107 are repeated, and the object indication information is displayed together with the dynamic image (continuous composition), and if yes, the process proceeds to step S108.

The user uses the specially displayed subject prompt information "Substation 1 Device Area 1 Device I C Phase" as the prompt information for capturing the current subject, and collates and photographs the corresponding subject.

When the user displays the information "substation 1 device area 1 device IC phase" in the information display field 801 in FIG. 8, the photographing of the corresponding subject is completed, and then the switching key 2 of the operation portion 11 is pressed. The user can perform the switching instruction operation by one-button operation. Here, the user does not need to look at the object information shown in the information display field 801 for selection or searching, and the operation is simple.

Further, the control unit 10 may be based on a predetermined switching condition; for example, when it is determined that the predetermined time interval is met, for example, when the analysis value of the image exceeds a predetermined threshold (for example, the temperature in the thermal image exceeds a predetermined threshold), for example, when The device connected to the video device 13 defines a switching condition such as a trigger signal of another sensor or the like, and automatically proceeds to step S108 even if the switching instruction operation of the operation unit 11 is not performed. The predetermined switching condition further includes a switching instruction of the operation unit 11 Operation, but when the other specified conditions are met at the same time, for example, the specified time interval is met, the switching specified processing is performed. Obviously, the specified switching conditions may be various conditions that are pre-configured.

Step S108, the control unit 10 determines whether the task is completed.

The control section 10 judges whether or not the designation of the last subject information in the sorting sequence is completed; if not, it returns to step S104, at which time the designated special subject information is switched in the sorting order. If it is completed, the information mode ends, and the words “task completion” can be displayed on the screen. After that, it returns to the standby state of the image device, waiting for the user to enter other modes. In addition, you can also switch to the starting point of the specified sort order, such as the starting point of the sort order, for loop shooting.

Specifically, in one embodiment, the information specifying unit (control unit 10) adds 1 to the sequence number of the sorting order corresponding to the special subject information specified before switching, and then determines whether or not the last one of the sorting sequence is completed, such as If it is not completed, the object information corresponding to the sequence number of the sort order obtained by adding the sequence number of the sort order plus one is designated as the special subject information; if it is completed, it is exited. In addition, it is not necessary to judge whether the designation of the last subject information in the sort order sequence is completed, or not, and the sorting operation is obtained each time the switching instruction operation is received, that is, the sorting sequence number is incremented by one. The subject information corresponding to the sequential number is designated as the special subject information, and if it is not found, the search is continued by 1 until the predetermined timing is exceeded, or until the control unit 10 receives the exit instruction to end the information mode.

In the example, the information specifying unit performs the specified special subject information based on the subject information stored in the information storage unit and the sorting order of the subject information determined by the ranking determining unit. Switching;

Here, the specified special subject information is switched. In a preferred embodiment, the information specifying unit sets the specified single subject information as the special subject information by the pre-switching as the special subject information. The individual subject information is switched to, in the sort order sequence, the subject information specified as the special subject information before the switching (the sort order of the subject information determined for the task determining portion when there is the task determining step) The next subject information in the sequence). For example, in this example, the single subject information specified as the special subject information is specified by the single subject information "Substation 1 device area 1 device IC phase" specified as the special subject information before the switching. , switch to, the specified before the switch The subject information "Substation 1 device area 1 device I c phase" of the specific subject information "next subject information "substation 1 device area 1 device IB phase" in the sort order sequence.

The display control unit controls the display unit to display the image generated by the image data, and displays the subject instruction information obtained by the information specifying unit switching the specified special subject information in a special display manner. As shown in the display interface 802, the object is switched to the subject indication information of "Substation 1 Device Area 1 Device I B Phase"; the progress information 803 displayed in 801 is changed to the progress information 804 displayed in 802. Then, the user can take a picture of the corresponding subject based on the subject indication information of the "Substation 1 Device Area 1 Device I B Phase". Thereby, the user can easily perform the shooting by the shooting path L11 as shown in Fig. 11, and it is not easy to miss the subject.

Further, the information specifying unit switches the single subject information as the special subject information specified by the subject information specified as the special subject information before the switching to the special subject specified before the switching. The subject information of the volume information is the previous subject information in the sorting order. Switching based on the sort order may be a sequence or a reverse order of the sort order sequence, and may be specified to be switched in the order of the sort order or in reverse order.

Further, when the information specifying unit specifies the subject information as the special subject information, and sorts the adjacent subject information by two or more; the information specifying unit specifies the specified subject information as the special subject information. The number of adjacent subject information is sorted, and the adjacent subject information is sorted by a predetermined number specified as the special subject information before switching, and switched to the subject specified as the special subject information before the switching. The next subject information of the information in the sort order sorts the adjacent subject information as the initial prescribed number.

For example, when "Substation 1 Equipment Area 1 Equipment IC", "Substation 1 Equipment Area 1 Equipment IB", "Substation 1 Equipment Area 1 Equipment IA Phase" are specified at the same time, in response to the switching instruction operation, the designation "Substation 1 Equipment Area 1" will be designated. Equipment Π 、", "Substation 1 equipment area 1 equipment Β Β", "Substation 1 equipment area 1 equipment II C phase" as special subject information.

Further, when the information specifying unit specifies the subject information as the special subject information and sorts the adjacent subject information for two or more, it may be switched in reverse order.

It is to be noted that, in the present embodiment, the number of subject information is described as an example. In the actual image detecting operation, the number of subjects is large, and the effect by the embodiment of the present invention is remarkable.

For the same reason, for complex equipment or when multi-angle shooting is required, the subject information (parts or angles) that need to be taken separately can be pre-stored and then sorted to avoid omission of the shot.

It should be noted that although the ordering factor setting step is included in the embodiment (step S102), it is not limited thereto, and step S102 is not necessary, and the subject information sorting order may be determined based on the default sorting factor. It is also possible to set and save the sorting factors separately for subsequent use.

As described above, based on the pre-stored subject information, the sort order of the subject information is determined based on the sorting factor, and then the special subject information is specified, and the image and the specially displayed subject indication are simultaneously displayed on the display unit. Information, the user uses the specially displayed subject indication information as the indication information of the currently photographed subject, and the recognition of the subject or the device identification card reduces the situation of erroneous shooting; when the switching instruction operation is performed That is, the specified special subject information is switched in the sorting order, and the subject indication information obtained by the information specifying unit switching the specified special subject information is displayed in a special display manner. It will greatly reduce the wrong path or mess, and ensure that it is not missed; thus improving the efficiency of shooting and reducing the work intensity. Through the display of statistical shooting progress information, the user can arrange the shooting process reasonably. In summary, Embodiment 1 is a preferred embodiment, and of course, it is not necessarily required to achieve all of the advantages described above while implementing any of the embodiments of the present invention. Example 2

In the present embodiment, in the video device 13 having the same configuration as that shown in FIG. 1, in the flash memory 9, a control program for setting filter conditions is stored, and a subject (including a photographing task) is determined based on filter conditions. The control program of the information is taken as an example of a scene in which the user performs image detection on the power devices in the equipment area 1 (1101), the equipment area 2 (1102), and the equipment area 3 (1103) in the substation 1 shown in FIG. Unlike the first embodiment, the user decomposes the photographing task into a plurality of subtasks by the filtering conditions, and then sorts the subject information in the subtasks and performs photographing. Assuming that the user first performs photographing of the subject in the device area 1, the present embodiment will be described with reference to Figs.

In step S201, the control unit 10 performs its control to continuously monitor whether the user has selected the information mode through the operation unit 11, and if so, proceeds to step S202.

Step S202, setting a filtering condition;

The control unit 10 controls the display unit to display the setting interface as shown in FIG. 3; when the user selects the filter condition setting item 303, the display unit 4 displays the filter condition setting interface as illustrated in FIG. 13, and the user performs the filter condition. The setting is made and determined; then, when the determination of the determination item 300 is detected, the process proceeds to step S203.

The task setting unit is configured to set a filter condition by the user, and the filter condition is composed of a keyword related to the filter condition and a filter logical relationship.

The task setting unit has a keyword determining unit, a logic determining unit, and a filtering condition generating unit, wherein the keyword determining unit is configured to determine a keyword related to the filtering condition; and the logic determining unit is configured to determine the filtering condition Filtering logical relationship of keywords; filtering logical relationship refers to the filtering of a single keyword is a non-relationship, or a combination of multiple,, or non-logical relationship between a plurality of keywords and a filtering right and wrong relationship; a filter condition generating unit, Used to generate filter criteria based on keywords related to filter criteria and specified filter logic relationships.

A keyword related to a filter condition, which may be a keyword; or multiple keywords, where multiple keywords include a case representing a range of keywords, such as a range of numbers, a range of letters, a range of sort orders, a time range, etc. . In addition, when the subject information has a belonging unit related to the subject, a classification level (such as a voltage level, an important level, etc.), a model, a manufacturer, a performance and characteristics, a history of past shooting or overhaul, a date of manufacture, When various information such as the expiration date is used, the keyword can be determined by setting a keyword, but the information is not necessarily used to generate the object indication information that is specifically displayed.

A keyword determining unit is configured to determine a keyword related to the filtering condition; for example, one or more of the following embodiments may be used to determine a keyword related to the filtering condition.

An embodiment, for example, pre-stores a selectable keyword to determine a keyword related to the filter condition based on the user's selection.

An embodiment, for example, one or all of the keywords associated with the filter condition by default.

In one embodiment, for example, a keyword is entered by a user, and a keyword entered by the user is determined as a keyword related to the filter condition.

An embodiment, for example, providing a selection of a keyword attribute for selection, and determining a keyword that matches the keyword attribute as a keyword related to the filter condition based on the keyword attribute selected by the user; When the partial subject information has the attribute information of the specific attribute, and the other part of the subject information does not have the attribute information of the specific attribute, the subject information can be conveniently filtered. In a preferred embodiment, based on the subject information stored in the information storage unit, a keyword for obtaining attribute information of a predetermined attribute in the subject information is queried, and a keyword related to the filter condition is determined based on the user's selection.

Here, the object storage information as shown in Fig. 15 is stored in the information storage unit. The control unit 10 controls the display unit 4 to display a filter condition setting interface as exemplified in Fig. 13, a sub-station 1303, a device area 1304, a device type 1305, and the like, and a keyword menu item that is configured to represent a keyword query of attribute information of a predetermined attribute. Control unit 10 based on the user based on this shot

The device area 1304 selected in the "device area 1", the object information stored in the information storage unit is queried, and the keyword "device area 1, device area 2, device area 3, and the attribute information of the specified attribute (device area) are obtained. ...", the display list 1306, from which the user selects "device area 1", the keyword determination unit determines that "device area 1" is a keyword related to the filter condition. Here, the display unit 4, the operation unit 11, and the control unit 10 constitute an example of the task setting unit. However, in this embodiment, when the keyword type of the attribute information of the subject information is large, the operation becomes cumbersome.

In another preferred embodiment, the keyword determining unit determines the keyword query condition, and queries the attribute of the specified attribute in the object information that satisfies the keyword query condition based on the object information stored in the information storage unit. a keyword of the information, and determining a keyword related to the filter condition based on the user's selection; wherein the keyword query condition is one or more of the previously determined keywords related to the filter condition.

The control unit 10 causes the display unit 4 to display the filter condition setting interface in the setting operation as shown in the example of FIG. 14. After the user selects the substation 1403 through the operation unit 11, the control unit 10 queries based on the subject information stored in the information storage unit. The keyword of the attribute information of the substation attribute is displayed in the display list 1406; the user selects "Substation 1" from which the control unit 10 will

"Substation 1" is determined as a keyword related to the filter condition; then, when the device area 1404 is selected, the control unit 10 determines the "Substation 1" selected by the user as the keyword search condition, and queries the "Substation 1". The keyword of the attribute information of the device type attribute of the object information, so that the display list 1407 "device area 1, device area 2, device area 3", from which the user selects the device type "device area 1"; the control unit 10 will" Substation 1 "", "Device Area 1" is determined as a keyword related to the filter condition. Obviously, this way will simplify the number of keywords to choose from.

a logic determining unit, configured to determine a filtering logical relationship of a keyword related to the filtering condition; the filtering logical relationship refers to a filtering right or wrong relationship when the keyword related to the filtering condition is a single keyword, or may be a key related to the filtering condition When the word is a plurality of keywords, the logical relationship between the AND, the AND, and the non-relationship between the multiple keywords may be a default, or may be determined according to user settings.

An example of a single keyword, such as the keyword related to the filter condition is a single keyword "device area 1", as shown in Figure 13, the "Yes" 1301 and "Non" 1302 options for shooting conditions, used to set the filter to be non-relational; "Yes" is selected, and the filter condition generated by the keyword "device area 1" is used for subsequent search and determination of the object information conforming to "device area 1" as a shooting task; when "non" is selected, the keyword is combined" Device Area 1 "The generated filter condition is used for subsequent lookups to determine compliance with non-

Subject information of "Device Area 1". In this example, the logic determination unit determines the filter right and wrong relationship as "yes" according to the default filter yes or no relationship. Then, when the user makes a determination through the operation unit 11, the filter condition generation unit (control unit 10) generates a filter condition by combining the default filter yes and the relationship "Yes" with the keyword "device area 1" selected by the user. When the task is determined, the subject information that matches the keyword "device area 1" is searched for as the determined subject information.

Examples of multiple keywords, such as the keyword related to the filter condition are "Substation 1", "Device Area 1", as shown in Figure 14, the logic determination unit determines whether the filter is a non-relational relationship according to the default filter. "Yes", and the logic determines the unit according to the default logical relationship (the keyword of the different attribute is "with" relationship) "and" the keyword "substation 1",

The logical relationship of "device area 1" is determined as "and"; and then, when the user makes a determination through the operation unit 11, the filter strip The component generation unit (control unit 10) combines the keywords "substation 1" and "device area 1" related to the filter condition with the default logical relationship "and", and combines the default filter with the non-relationship "yes" to generate a filter condition. When the task is determined, the subject information that matches the keyword "Substation 1" and conforms to "Device Area 1" is searched for as the determined subject information. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the logic determining unit may also perform a logical relationship (not shown) between the set keywords by the user.

When the setting of the filter condition is completed and the user determines it by the OK button in the operation unit, the generated filter condition is recorded in the temporary storage unit 6, or recorded in the flash memory 9 or the like (for example, a configuration profile) as the subsequent use. Go to step S203.

Step S203, the task determining unit is configured to determine (select) a plurality of subject information from the subject information stored in the information storage unit. The determined subject information is used to designate special subject information therefrom, which can be understood as subject information included in the photographing task.

For example, "Substation 1" and "Device Area 1" are used as filter conditions, and when the information storage unit stores the subject information as shown in FIG. 15, the object that matches the keyword "Substation 1" and conforms to "Device Area 1" is found. The information is used as the determined subject information (the subject information as shown in Fig. 16).

Step S204, determining a sort order of the object information.

In the present embodiment, the control unit 10 controls to display the subject indication information obtained by the predetermined number of subject information on the predetermined position of the display unit 4 in accordance with the default ordering factor, as shown by 1701 in FIG. Then, the user sorts and adjusts the displayed object indication information, and performs a drag operation by a cross key or a touch screen to arrange the order; in addition, information such as a number representing the sort order may also be entered; The object indication information and sort order shown in 1702 are shown. Here, the order determination unit determines the sort order of the subject information corresponding to the subject instruction information in response to a predetermined operation of adjusting the order of the subject instruction information displayed on the display unit.

Step S205, specifying special subject information;

When the sorting adjustment is completed, the user selects the subject indication information "Substation 1 device area 1 device IC phase" shown in 1702 in FIG. 17, and the control unit 10 specifies the subject information corresponding to the subject indication information. In the case of the special subject information, the flow proceeds to step S206.

Step S206, the image data obtained by the imaging unit 1 is transmitted to the temporary storage unit 6. The image processing unit 2 performs predetermined processing on the image data captured by the imaging unit 1 to obtain image data of the image, and stores the image data in the temporary storage unit 6.

In step S207, the subject indication information and the image obtained by the special subject information are simultaneously displayed on the display unit 4.

Step S208, the control unit determines whether there is a switching instruction operation, and if not, repeats the steps of steps S206-S208, and if yes, proceeds to step S209.

In step S209, the control unit 10 determines whether the task is completed.

If it is completed, this message indicates that the shooting mode shooting ends, and returns to the standby state of the image device, waiting for the user to re-set the task setting of "Device Area 2" "Device Area 3" and shoot. If not, it returns to step S205 to switch the designation in the sorting order.

In this embodiment, the task setting is performed after entering the information mode; but not limited thereto, the task setting may be performed first, for example, generating a new data file; then entering the information mode; in addition, the task setting may also be performed multiple times. , Different combinations can be used to obtain more implementations. As described above, by setting the filter condition of the subject information in the photographing task, the display of the redundant information can be reduced, the number of subject indication information is small, and the displayed subject indication information is easy to sort. Adjustment; In addition, the shooting path is defined in advance, and the intensity is reduced, the efficiency is improved, and the object is avoided in the subsequent shooting.

Example 3

This embodiment is in the image device 13 having the same configuration as that shown in FIG. 1. In the flash memory 9, a control program for setting group sorting and filtering conditions and a control for determining object information based on filter conditions are stored. The program, for example, a scene in which the user performs image detection on the power device of the type "device I" in the equipment area 1, the equipment area 2, and the equipment area 3 in the substation 1 shown in FIG. 11, in the past, due to the detection The purpose is different. There are all the objects in the whole station. There are also detections of specific types of subjects. These specific types of objects are distributed in different equipment areas and need to be searched by users, which is very inconvenient. If the subject information is used as a filter condition, it can be easily taken by the user.

Unlike the first embodiment, three data files are stored in the memory card. As shown in FIG. 21, the data file 1 (list 2101) contains subject information and data files to which the sorting order is added in association with the device area 1. 2 (List 2102) includes object information to which the sorting order is attached, which corresponds to the device area 2, and the data file 3 (List 2103) contains subject information to which the sorting order is added in relation to the device area 3; For the best efficiency route for shooting, the user sets the sort order between the data files according to the layout of the substation, and then sets "Device I" as the filter condition before shooting. This embodiment will be described with reference to Figs. 18 to 22 .

In step S301, the control unit 10 performs its control to continuously monitor whether the user has selected the information mode through the operation unit 11, and if so, proceeds to step S302.

Step S302, setting a sorting factor between data files;

The control unit 10 controls the display unit to display a setting menu as shown in FIG. 3, and when the user selects the group setting item 301 as shown in FIG. 3, the display is based on the data file (group) stored in the information storage unit. As shown in the data file list 1802 shown in FIG. 18, the user sets a sorting factor (sort list 1801) on the data file in the list. When the setting is completed, the user returns to the setting menu as shown in FIG. When the filter condition setting item 302 is selected again, the process proceeds to step S303.

The information storage unit is configured to store a plurality of sets of subject information in advance, and a group sorting setting unit for setting a sorting factor between the groups. The group referred to herein refers to a set containing a plurality of object information, such as a data file, a folder, etc., having a common group identifier; and, after completing the group sorting, the same group of subject information may be performed again. Set or view the sorting factors.

Step S303, setting a filter condition;

The task setting unit is used for the user to set the filter condition (of the subject information included in the shooting task).

The control unit 10 causes the filter condition setting interface shown in FIG. 20 to be displayed. In one embodiment, the control unit 10 queries the data file 1 determined in step S302 based on the device type 2001 selected by the user based on the current "device I". The object information in 2, 3, the keyword "device I, device II, device 111" which obtains the attribute information of the specified attribute (device type), causes the display list 2002, from which the user selects "device I" Based on the default filter is a non-relational "yes" combined with the keyword "device I" to generate a filter. When the user completes the setting and determines the determination item 300 shown in Fig. 3, the process proceeds to step S304; further, other determination methods as set forth in step S202 in the embodiment 2 may be employed to determine the filter condition.

Step S304, determining object information and a sorting order thereof; Based on the filter condition determined in step S303, the object information matching the keyword "device I" is searched for as the determined subject information in the data files 1, 2, 3, in combination with the group sorting factors set in step S302 and each The sorting factor of the group object information, the determined object information and its sorting order are as shown in the schematic list 2104 in FIG. 21, wherein the data files 1, 2, 3 before the task determination are reduced" Device area 2", and "Device 11", "Device 111", the number of shooting tasks of the device dropped to "6". Obviously, the shooting path for a specific shooting task is simplified, and the search for "Device I" in "Device Area 2" is avoided, which reduces the work intensity.

Step S305, specifying special subject information;

The control unit 10 controls to designate the subject information "substation 1 device area 1 device I c phase" which is the first in the sort order to which the determined subject information is added, as the special subject information.

Step S306, the image data obtained by the imaging unit 1 is transmitted to the temporary storage unit 6. The image processing unit 2 performs predetermined processing on the image data captured by the imaging unit 1 to obtain image data of the image, and stores the image data in the temporary storage unit 6.

In step S307, the subject indication information and the image obtained by the special subject information are simultaneously displayed on the display unit 4.

Step S308, the control unit determines whether there is a switching instruction operation, and if not, repeats the steps of steps S306-S308, and if yes, proceeds to step S309.

In step S309, the control unit 10 determines whether the task is completed.

If it is completed, this information indicates that the shooting mode shooting ends, returns to the standby state of the image device, and waits for the user to enter another mode. If not, the flow returns to step S305, and the designation is switched in the sort order in accordance with the determined subject information.

In this embodiment, when the user photographs the device I in the device area 1, it will go to the device I in the shooting device area 3, avoiding the searching of the device I in the device area 2, as shown in the device area 1 in FIG. The shooting path of (2201), device area 2 (2202), and equipment area 3 (2203) is changed from L11 in Fig. 11 to L22 in Fig. 22.

As described above, by setting the sorting factors between the groups, a shortcut operation for sorting the groups is provided; by setting the filtering conditions, the display of the redundant information can be reduced, and the displayed subject indication information is more instructive, and It simplifies the shooting path, reduces the intensity, improves efficiency, and avoids the omission. Obviously, when setting various different filtering conditions, it will bring great convenience to the user's shooting. For example, when the subject information has the attribute information of the history (such as the past defect condition), the user can quickly find the relevant information of the defective subject by querying the defect, which is convenient for re-examination.
