Image pickup apparatus and method for detecting an entrance or exit event of an object in a frame image and medium storing a program causing a computer to function as the apparatus

摘要

An information processing apparatus includes: an object detection unit to detect an object included in a frame image based on a feature amount of the frame image, and generate and output object information concerning the detected object; an event detection unit to detect an event of the object based on the object information output by the object detection unit, and generate and output event concern information concerning the detected event of the object; and a transmission unit to transmit the frame image, the event concern information, concerning the frame image, output by the event detection unit, and time information concerning the frame image, as associating them with others. Thus, even in a case where event detection timing and event occurrence timing are different from each other, it is possible to perform a display by which a user can easily confirm the event.

1. An image pickup apparatus comprising:
an object detection unit configured to detect an object included in a frame image of video data on the basis of a feature amount of the frame image; an event detection unit configured to detect a misplacement event of the object based on an activity state and an existing time of the object, and to generate event information including the existing time of the object and an identifier of the frame image in which the misplacement event of the object has been detected; a storage control unit configured to store in a storage device the frame image and the event information; a determination unit configured to determine an event occurrence time at which the misplacement event occurred based on the identifier of the frame image in which the misplacement event has been detected and the existing time of the object in the event information; and display control unit configured to obtain the frame image corresponding to the determined event occurrence time from the storage device and display the obtained frame image corresponding to the determined event occurrence time on a display device.
