Abstract

In the present invention, a requester terminal transmits, to a mediation server, request information including request content which includes an imaging date/time and an imaging location, and remuneration deposit information for an advance deposit of remuneration for the execution of the request content. The mediation server executes processing for disclosing the request content and the remuneration for the request content. An executor terminal: sends acceptance information with respect to the request information to the mediation server; adds position information acquired from a position information sensor of the executor terminal and time information acquired from a clock circuit to imaging data generated by imaging at the imaging location at the imaging date/time using a camera of the executor terminal; and transmits the foregoing to the mediation server. The mediation server collates the position information and the time information added to the imaging data against the imaging date/time and the imaging location prescribed in the request information, and if a determination is made that there is a match, distributes the imaging data to the requester terminal. When distribution ends, the mediation server determines the amount of remuneration to the executor on the basis of the distribution result, and uses the remuneration deposit information to process payment processing of the determined remuneration amount to the executor.

Description

Remote terminal borrowing system and remote terminal borrowing method

The present invention relates to a remote terminal borrowing system and a remote terminal borrowing method, and more particularly to solutions to various problems that arise when actually providing a remote terminal borrowing system.

In Patent Document 1, as an example of a system for sharing an experience between users at different locations, "accepting means for respectively accepting request information regarding a request for an experience from a requesting user terminal and execution information regarding execution of an experience from an executing user terminal and experience sharing determination means for determining an experience to be shared between the requesting user terminal and the executing user terminal based on the request information and execution information received by the receiving means, and for sharing the experience determined by the experience sharing means. When shared information including voice or image is obtained by the executing user terminal, an information obtaining means for obtaining the same, and a distribution means for distributing the shared information obtained by the information obtaining means to the requesting user terminal. (summary excerpt)”.

Japanese Patent No. 6644288

In Patent Literature 1, it is stated that "shared information can be obtained after the requesting user terminal or executing user terminal settles the payment of the remuneration (paragraph 0129 of the specification)." After confirming the imaging information after paying the fee, if the object that the client wanted to see was not necessarily shown in the imaging information, the client would pay for unnecessary imaging information. I have concerns.

On the other hand, even though the executor went to the site and prepared before starting the actual imaging work, if imaging could not be performed as requested by the client, the imaging fee would not be paid at all. Unpaid fees due to reasons that should not be attributed to the executor, such as bad weather, or, for example, if the request for 10 minutes of imaging time has to be interrupted, unpaid for the imaging work from preparation to interruption. there is a concern that

Moreover, in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, "the photographing condition control unit of the executing user terminal performs photographing for obtaining shared information on the executing user terminal based on the instruction regarding the position included in the instruction information transmitted by the instruction information transmitting unit. (Paragraph 0126 of the specification)." There are concerns that the care of

Furthermore, in Patent Document 1, although it is stated that unauthorized imaging is avoided by masking images or alternative images such as mosaics (paragraph 0126 of the specification), when there is a request to image an object that is prohibited to be imaged, There is a concern that image processing using a substitute image may not prevent the executor from violating copyright or an act that may violate the Personal Information Protection Law if the executor takes an image without permission.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide technology suitable for practical use of a remote terminal borrowing system.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention has the configuration described in the claims. For example, a client terminal operated by a client, an executor terminal operated by an executor who accepts a request for imaging from the client and executes the request, and an intermediation server are connected through a communication network. a client terminal processor and a client terminal communication device for communicating with the mediation server; , a server processor, a server communication device for communicating with each of the requester terminal and the executor terminal, and a storage, wherein the executor terminal comprises an executor terminal processor, a camera, a position information sensor, and a clock circuit , and an executor terminal communication device for communicating with the mediation server, wherein the requester terminal processor includes request content including the imaging date and time and imaging location and a reward for pre-depositing a reward for execution of the request content Request information including deposit information is transmitted from the requester terminal communication device to the mediation server, the server communication device receives the request information, the server processor stores the request information in the storage, and processes the request. The executor terminal processor returns acceptance information of the request information from the executor terminal communication device to the intermediary server, and at the imaging date and time The imaging data generated by imaging by the camera at the imaging location is added with the position information obtained from the position information sensor and the time information obtained from the clock circuit, and is transmitted from the executor terminal communication device to the mediation server. The server communication device receives the imaging data, and the server processor compares the position information and the time information added to the imaging data with the imaging date and time and the imaging location specified in the request information. delivering the imaging data from the server communication device to the requester terminal when it is determined that they match, and determining a reward amount for the executor based on the result of the delivery when the delivery is completed; A process of paying the determined remuneration amount to the executor using the remuneration deposit information is executed.

<First Embodiment>
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a remote terminal borrowing system 1 according to this embodiment.

The remote terminal borrowing system 1 shown in FIG. It is configured by connecting an intermediary server 300 that mediates the executor terminal 200 via a network. The client terminal 100 does not necessarily have a camera function, but the executor terminal 200 does need a camera function. In this embodiment, an example in which both the client terminal 100 and the executor terminal 200 are smartphones will be described, but a tablet may be used as a mobile information terminal with a camera function. Also, the executor terminal 200 may be configured to upload an image captured by a wearable camera or a head-mounted display configured separately from the mobile information terminal to the mediation server 300 from the mobile information terminal. Next, the procedure for receiving the remote terminal borrowing service will be described.

(1) Transmission of Request Information First, request information is transmitted from the client terminal 100 to the mediation server 300 . The requester information includes the content of the request and information on the deposit of remuneration to be paid to the executor who has executed the request.

The content of the request includes at least the details of the content of the request, including the location, date and time, and shooting time that the client wants to view. Furthermore, camera specifications, such as bit rate and camera specifications used for imaging, may also be included.

The remuneration deposit information is information for the mediation server 300 to deposit the remuneration from the requester before executing the request. For example, it may be the client's credit number, gift card information for receiving Internet services, or information on the amount of remuneration that has been transferred to an account specified by the mediation server 300 .

(2) Reward deposit information storage & request information disclosure The intermediary server 300 stores the remuneration deposit information and publishes the request information on the network (publishes on the site established by the intermediary server 300).

(3) Confirmation of request content and transmission of acceptance information A person who has confirmed the content of a request posted on the site and has decided to accept the request (hereinafter referred to as the “executor”) sends acceptance information indicating acceptance of the request to the mediation server 300. reply to

(4) Execution of Request, Transmission of Imaging Data The executor uses the executor terminal 200 to execute the content of the request. Then, the imaging data is transmitted to the mediation server 300 . The imaging data is added with position information of the imaging location and imaging time information.

(5) Verification of Execution Content The intermediation server 300 compares the position information of the imaging location and the imaging time information added to the imaging data with the request content, and verifies whether the imaging data matches the request content. If they do not match, response information is returned to the executor terminal 200 to the effect that the execution of the requested content is not recognized.

(6) Streaming distribution The mediation server 300 performs streaming distribution to the client terminal 100 of the imaged data determined to match the requested content as a result of the verification.

(7) Determining Remuneration Amount After the streaming distribution ends, the mediation server 300 determines the remuneration amount according to the content of execution. For example, if the content of the request is "video distribution for 10 minutes from 0:00 on 0:00 on 0:00", if only 8 minutes are distributed, it will not be performed according to the predetermined remuneration amount determination rule. Decide on the amount of remuneration that has been reduced.

(8) Payment of remuneration The intermediation server 300 uses the already stored remuneration deposit information to transmit the determined remuneration amount to the executor terminal 200 or pay the remuneration amount, and sends the result to the executor terminal 200. Send.

According to this remote terminal borrowing system 1, even if the client cannot go to the spot or does not have a fixed-point observation camera, the client can leave the client by transmitting request information to the mediation server 300. It is possible to visually recognize the video at the shooting time of the location. At that time, the mediation server 300 verifies that the streamed distribution sent is not image data taken by the executor on a different day in advance, but rather real-time video, so that the requested content is truly executed. can confirm that there is

On the other hand, since the mediation server 300 stores the reward deposit information in advance, it is possible to eliminate the concern that the executor will not be paid even though the request has been executed.

FIG. 2 is a hardware configuration diagram of the client terminal 100 and the executor terminal 200. FIG. Each of client terminal 100 and executor terminal 200 includes processor 101, display 102, ROM 103, RAM 104, nonvolatile memory 105, touch panel 107, in-camera 111, out-camera 112, microphone 121, speaker 122, operation button 130, wireless LAN communication device 141 , proximity wireless communication device 142 , telephone network communication device 143 , vibrator 150 , sensor group 160 , RTC (Real Time Clock) 170 , and connector 180 are interconnected via bus 106 . The display 102 and the touch panel 107 may be integrated.

The sensor group 160 may include a GPS (Global Positioning System) 161, a gyro sensor 162, a geomagnetic sensor 163, an acceleration sensor 164, an illuminance sensor 165, a proximity sensor 166, a distance sensor 167, and a line of sight detection sensor 168.

The GPS sensor 161 receives signals from GPS satellites in the sky, and is a position sensor that detects the positions of the client terminal 100 and the executor terminal 200 in the world coordinate system.

The RTC 170 outputs current time information.

The executor terminal 200 adds the position information acquired from the GPS sensor 161 and the current time information acquired from the RTC 170 to the imaging data (whether video or still image) captured by the out-camera 112 .

The ROM 103 or non-volatile memory 105 stores a terminal-side program for executing the remote terminal borrowing service and a browser program for viewing request information published by the mediation server 300 .

FIG. 3 is a hardware configuration diagram of the mediation server 300. As shown in FIG. In mediation server 300 , processor 301 , ROM 302 , RAM 303 , storage 304 , display 305 , input device 306 and communication I/F 307 are interconnected via bus 308 .

FIG. 4 is a functional block diagram of the mediation server 300. As shown in FIG. The intermediation server 300 includes a request information verification unit 311, a request disclosure processing unit 312, an acceptance information processing unit 313, an execution content verification unit 314, an imaging data distribution processing unit 315, a download processing unit 316, a reward amount determination unit 317, and a payment processing unit. 318 and a communication control unit 319 . These units are configured by the processor 301 executing a remote terminal borrowing processing program stored in the storage 304 .

Further, the mediation server 300 includes a map information storage unit 320 , a request information storage unit 321 , and a post-processing imaging data storage unit 322 . Each of these units is configured by a storage area allocated to each piece of information in the storage 304 . The details of the processing of each unit shown in the functional blocks of the mediation server 300 will be described later.

　Figs. 5A and 5B are sequence diagrams showing the flow of processing of the remote terminal borrowing service.

When the requester inputs the request information person including the remuneration deposit information to the requester terminal 100 (S101), the request information is transmitted from the requester terminal 100 to the mediation server 300 via the network (S102).

The mediation server 300 receives the request information (S103). The communication control unit 319 of the mediation server 300 performs reception processing of the request information and passes it to the request information verification unit 311 .

The request information verification unit 311 confirms whether the request content and remuneration deposit information are appropriate (S104).

The request information verification unit 311 confirms whether the request content is a date and time that can be executed or accepted. In addition, it is confirmed whether the shooting location included in the request content is a location that has been set in advance as a prohibited area in the remote terminal rental system 1 . For this purpose, the request information verification unit 311 refers to the map information storage unit 320 and compares the imaging location indicated in the request content with the map information. A photographing prohibition area is defined in advance in the map information, and it is determined whether or not the photographing location is within the photographing prohibition area. If it is in the imaging prohibited area, the content of the request should not be accepted. The terminal 100 receives (S106).

Areas where photography is prohibited include, for example, movie theaters, concert halls, live venues, and other places where photography may violate the Copyright Act; It is a place where the remote terminal borrowing service provider predetermines and adds it to the map information. In this case, the processing of the request information verification unit 311 can be speeded up while prohibiting the photographing action in a place that may become a problem in advance.

In addition, as a method for setting the imaging prohibited area, the request information verification unit 311 acquires information on performances such as concerts and live performances that are open to the public on the network in addition to map information, and based on this information on performances, is held, the venue may be set as an imaging prohibited area. In this case, the shooting prohibited area can be dynamically set according to the date and time of the performance and the location of the performance.

Furthermore, the request information verifying unit 311 checks whether the remuneration deposit information included in the request information, such as the payment information included in the remuneration deposit information, the credit number, the gift car number that enables transactions via the Internet service, etc., is appropriate. to confirm. When the intermediary server 300 determines that the reward cannot be deposited or withdrawn, it returns refusal information to the client terminal 100 (S105), and the client terminal 100 receives it (S106).

If both the request content and the remuneration deposit information are appropriate, the request information verification unit 311 transmits request acceptance information (S105), and the requester terminal 100 receives the request information (S106). Memorize. Accordingly, the remuneration deposit information is also stored in the request information storage unit 321 . As a result, mediation server 300 secures means of remuneration for the executor of the request prior to execution by the executor, and the concern that the remuneration is not paid by the requester after execution can be eliminated.

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing the request information table 400 stored in the request information storage unit 321. As shown in FIG. The request information table 400 includes a “request ID” that uniquely identifies received request information, a “requester terminal ID” that indicates the terminal that sent the request information, and items that indicate the content of the request: “picture location” and “picture date and time.” ”, and “Notices”. Also, "payment method" is stored as remuneration deposit information.

"Request propriety" indicating the result of the request information check in step S104, "Payment method" as remuneration deposit information, "executor terminal ID" uniquely identifying the executor terminal 200 that accepted the request information, "Acceptance contents" and "reward receiving method" specified by the executor are stored.

When new request information is recorded in the request information storage unit 321, the request publication processing unit 312 of the intermediation server 300 reads it and makes a request to the home page published on the remote terminal borrowing service site established by the intermediation server 300. The content is posted and made public (S107).

The request disclosure processing unit 312 may read the map information from the map information storage unit 320 and disclose the map information together with the request content. FIG. 7 is a request information disclosure screen 500 by the request disclosure processing unit 312 . On the public screen 500, a camera icon 501 indicating a real-time imaging request is superimposed and displayed on the imaging location on the map. By clicking the camera icon 501, the detailed request content and reward can be confirmed. However, information that can identify the client, such as the client's terminal ID and the client's name, is not included in the information to be disclosed.

Of the viewers who have accessed the remote terminal borrowing service site, the person (executor) who undertakes the content of the request inputs the request execution acceptance information from the executor terminal 200 (S108) and transmits it to the mediation server 300 (S109). .

When the intermediary server 300 receives the acceptance information, the acceptance information processing section 313 stores the accepted request information in the request information storage section 321 in association with the execution acceptance information. Further, the acceptance information processing section 313 transmits acceptance result information to the client terminal 100 (S111), and the client terminal 100 receives the acceptance result information (S112).

When the executor transmits the execution acceptance information, an attribute of the executor, such as age information, is included. The performer may be screened, such as refusing the execution acceptance information if the performer is not older than the appropriate age.

Also, if the client desires high-quality video, for example, the specification of the imaging device (use of wide-angle lens, bit rate of distributed video, etc.) is limited in the special items of the request information, and the acceptance information processing unit 313 executes The acceptance information and the executor may be examined as to whether or not the imaging device can perform imaging that satisfies the specs of the imaging device. In addition, if the maximum working hours to be paid for the working hours performed by the executor is written in the special notes, it will be referred to when determining the amount of remuneration.

In Fig. 6, "Request ID" of "1" has "Request propriety" of "NG" and has not received the request. The reason is that the request was rejected by the request information verifying unit 311 in step S104 because the shooting location was "movie theater". Request information for which a request has been rejected does not necessarily have to be stored in the request information table 400 .

In addition, "3" of "request ID" in FIG. 6 divides and executes one request by multiple persons whose "executor terminal IDs" are "terminal A2" and "terminal A3". In this process, the execution applicant who has seen the request information disclosed by the acceptance information processing section 313 writes in the acceptance information whether or not all or part of the request can be carried out, and returns it to the mediation server 300. . The acceptance information processing section 313 determines the executor by prioritizing applicants who can complete a single request from among the received acceptance information. If only applicants who can execute only a part of one request gather, the acceptance information processing unit 313 combines a plurality of applicants so that they can execute all one request. select multiple performers for If none of the applicants accepts the request, or if only part of the request can be executed, the acceptance information processing section 313 returns the result to the requester terminal 100 .

The executor executes the request and takes an image with the out-camera 112 of the executor terminal 200 (S113). The processor 101 of the executor terminal 200 acquires current location information from the GPS sensor 161 and acquires current time information from the RTC 170 . Then, the processor 101 adds the position information and the time information to the imaging data (video data) generated by the out-camera 112 and transmits the data to the mediation server 300 (S114).

The execution content verification unit 314 of the intermediation server 300 compares the position information and time information added to the imaging data with the request information stored in the request information storage unit 321, and determines the request content including the imaging data in the request information. (S115). As a result, the imaging data taken at the requested location at a past time different from the date and time actually described in the request content is imaged at the requested date and time and sent from the executor terminal 200 disguised as data. image data obtained by unauthorized execution, such as being transmitted from the executor terminal 200 falsely as image data captured at the requested location from a location with a different but similar scenery to the requested location. can be eliminated.

The imaged data distribution processing unit 315 performs subject detection processing and subject recognition processing (for example, face recognition processing and character recognition processing) on the imaged data, and performs masking processing on an area in which a subject to be kept private is imaged. (S116). Subjects to be kept private are determined in advance by the provider of the remote terminal borrowing service. Examples include a person's face and a vehicle license plate. The imaging data distribution processing unit 315 performs blurring processing (comparatively strong smoothing filter processing) or superimposes or replaces a dummy image on an area in which a subject to be kept private is imaged. The imaging data distribution processing unit 315 stores the imaging data subjected to masking processing in the post-processing imaging data storage unit 322 . This is for storing for a predetermined period in preparation for a download request. After a predetermined period of time has elapsed, the data in the post-processed captured data storage unit 322 is sequentially deleted from the oldest data (FIFO processing).

The imaging data distribution processing unit 315 performs streaming distribution of the image after the necessary masking processing to the client terminal 100 (S117, S118), and the client terminal 100 starts viewing (S119).

The client inputs the angle-of-view adjustment information as necessary on the client terminal 100 (S120), and transmits it to the mediation server 300 (S121).

FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a state in which the client terminal 100 controls the camera of the executor terminal 200. FIG. A screen 1112 is a screen of the client terminal 100 and a screen 2112 is a screen of the executor terminal 200 . Since data captured by the executor terminal 200 is transmitted to the client terminal 100 and displayed, both the executor terminal 200 and the client terminal 100 show the dog's paws.

Therefore, the client displays the local camera control UI 600 (user interface) displayed on the display 102 of the client terminal 100 . The on-site camera control UI 600 is superimposed on the video from the executor terminal 200 with transparency except necessary icons so that the video transmitted from the executor terminal 200 can be checked at all times.

The local camera control UI 600 includes a camera control icon 601, a standing position control icon 602, a zoom icon 603, a brightness icon 604, an audio on/off switching button 605, and an effective imaging control button 606.

The camera control icon 601 is an icon for notifying the executor terminal 200 of the desired orientation of the camera of the executor terminal 200 in the vertical and horizontal directions.

The standing position control icon 602 allows the executor to change the height of the executor terminal 200 from the reference plane (for example, the ground surface on which the executor stands) in the vertical direction, This is an icon for conveying that the executor terminal 200 itself is to be translated in the horizontal direction.

A zoom icon 603 is an icon for indicating that the camera of the executor terminal 200 should be used to zoom in and out on the subject.

A brightness icon 604 is an icon for requesting the executor to turn on the light and capture an image when the video is dark.

The sound on/off switching button 605 is a button for switching between reproducing with sound or without sound while the processed imaging data is being reproduced on the client terminal 100 .

The valid imaging control button 606 is a button for the client terminal 100 to download (save) the processed imaging data. When a scene that the client wants to save starts during playback of the processed image data, the client presses the "START" button. As a result, storage of the processed imaging data in the client terminal 100 starts. When the "stop" button is pressed, saving of the processed imaging data is stopped. It can be inferred that the downloaded scene is a video that is useful for the requester. Therefore, of the total time of the processed imaging data received by the client terminal 100, the downloaded time is defined as "effective imaging time". This effective imaging time corresponds to the time from when the "START" button of the effective imaging control button 606 is pressed until when the "STOP" button is pressed. The effective imaging time is used for determining the reward amount, which will be described later.

On the screen 1112, when the requester clicks the upward arrow of the camera control icon 601 using the cursor 1113, as shown in the screen 2112, the moving direction of the camera is indicated by the upward arrow, and "Aim the camera in the direction of the arrow." Please.” is displayed. When the executor who sees this turns the out-camera 112 of the executor terminal 200 upward, the client can view the desired image in real time even at a place away from the executor.

The mediation server 300 receives the angle-of-view adjustment information and transfers it to the executor terminal 200 (S122, S123). The executor terminal 200 receives the angle-of-view adjustment information, the executor adjusts the angle of view (S124), and continues imaging.

When the client operates the "START" and "STOP" buttons of the "effective imaging control" button 606 of the local camera control UI 600 (see FIG. 8) displayed on the client terminal 100 (S125), "effective imaging control" is activated. Effective imaging control information indicating the details of the operation of the button 606 is transmitted to the mediation server 300 (S126). The download processing unit 316 acquires the effective imaging control information, and starts saving the processed imaged data from the time when the "START" button is pressed in the processed imaged data storage unit 322 (S127). When the download processing unit 316 acquires the valid imaging control information indicating that the “stop” button has been pressed, the download processing unit 316 stops saving to the post-processing imaging data storage unit 322 .

When the client terminal 100 sends a download request to the intermediary server 300 (S128, S129) and the intermediary server 300 receives the request (S130), the download processing unit 316 receives the effective imaging time from the processed image data storage unit 322. After the above process, the imaging data is read out and transmitted to the client terminal 100 as download data (S131, S132). As a result, the processed imaging data for the effective imaging time is stored in the client terminal 100, and the download is executed (S133).

The executor terminal 200 completes the execution of the requested content, that is, ends the imaging (S134), transmits completion notification information to the mediation server 300 (S135), and the mediation server 300 receives it (S136). The imaging data distribution processing unit 315 transfers the completion notification information to the client terminal 100 (S137), and the client terminal 100 receives it (S138).

The remuneration amount determination unit 317 determines the remuneration amount based on the request information and the download information (S139).

The payment processing unit 318 reads the remuneration deposit information from the request information storage unit 321 and pays the determined remuneration amount (S140). Then, the executor receives the reward (S141), and the executor terminal 200 receives the reward payment notification information.

FIG. 9 is an explanatory diagram of the charging criteria by the remuneration amount determination unit 317. FIG. The remuneration amount determination unit 317 determines the remuneration amount by combining two billing standards, ie, the effective imaging time (first billing standard) and the total work time (second billing standard). This is because when the executor goes to the shooting location and actually shoots the image, but the client cannot see the image that satisfies him due to the unfortunate weather outside, the client does not want to pay the full amount of remuneration. On the other hand, since the executor goes to the shooting location and spends work time preparing for it, it is a mechanism to meet the demands of both the client and the executor, who want to receive a reward for that.

Therefore, the remuneration amount is divided into the fixed amount area and the hourly wage area. In the example of FIG. 9, if twice the effective imaging time is equal to or longer than the working time, the reward amount is effective imaging time (minutes)×100 (yen). In this case, the amount of remuneration is set in proportion to the image that the client is satisfied with (image of effective imaging time). On the other hand, if twice the effective imaging time is shorter than the work time, the remuneration is total work time (minutes)×50 (yen). In this case, an image satisfying the client is not captured sufficiently. However, the cause may not necessarily originate from the executor, such as the bad weather, or the client being unable to take an image of what he wanted to see due to the crowds. Therefore, remuneration for the executioner's work is paid according to the total work time. Therefore, in FIG. 9, when the effective imaging time is 5 minutes, if the work time is less than 10 minutes at maximum, the remuneration is a fixed amount of 500 yen, and if the work time exceeds 10 minutes, it is 50 yen per minute. The reward will increase.

FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of calculation of the effective imaging time by the remuneration determination unit 317. FIG. The total work time includes instruction/preparation (moving, etc.) time and effective imaging time. In addition, when imaging is resumed after imaging at one location, the effective imaging time may be divided into a plurality of time zones. Therefore, the remuneration amount determination unit 317 acquires DL request information (operation information of the “START” button and operation information of the “Stop” button of the effective imaging control button 606) from the download processing unit 316, and the total effective imaging time Time is used as the basis for determining remuneration amounts.

According to this embodiment, when a remote terminal is borrowed, that is, when a request for imaging is made on behalf of another person who is different from the requester, the mediation server 300 first verifies whether the content of the request is appropriate at the time of receiving the request. Therefore, it is possible to prevent actions that are not desirable from the viewpoint of copyright law violations and protection of personal information.

Furthermore, since the mediation server 300 deposits the amount of remuneration, it is possible to prevent non-payment of the amount of remuneration to the executor.

In addition, the requester can view the video as requested by checking the location information and time information added to the imaging data by the mediation server 300 .

In addition, the request from the client side is to reduce the amount of compensation when only images that the client is not satisfied with are obtained, and regardless of the satisfaction level of the image, we want to receive compensation for the work actually done. It is possible to provide a remote terminal borrowing service while satisfying the requirements of the executor side.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and modifications that do not depart from the gist of the present invention are included in the technical scope of the present invention.

For example, the functional block diagrams, sequence diagrams, table examples, and screen display examples shown above are merely examples, and are not limited to these. Also, the charging criteria by the remuneration amount determination unit 317 are not limited to those in FIG.
