MONITORING CAMERA SYSTEM

摘要

In a monitoring camera system, a master device registers a smart phone and a wireless router therein in advance. If sensor detection information is received from a human sensor, the master device requests a monitoring camera to transmit image/audio data, and sends image/audio data transmitted from the monitoring camera to the smart phone via the wireless router. The smart phone displays the image data sent from the monitoring camera on a touch panel.
