Content output system, output control device and output control method

摘要

Based on captured images obtained when an image capture device takes images in an image capture range, a change in the moving speed of one passerby or each of a plurality of passerby contained in the captured images is calculated. When there is a passerby whose moving speed is decreased in the image capture range, the passerby is paying attention to the content, and therefore content to be outputted by a content output device is switched from ordinary content to specific content. On the other hand, when only passerby who are moving at constant speed are present in the image capture range, the passerby are not paying attention to the content, and hence the content output device continues to output the ordinary content.

主权项

1. A content output system comprising:
an image capture device; a storage device storing a plurality of pieces of content whose video matters are different from each other; a content output device for outputting content stored in the storage device; and an output control device for controlling switching and outputting of the content in the content output device, based on images which are captured by the image capture device and inputted in a time sequence to the output control device, wherein the output control device includes: a human determination section for determining, based on the images, whether or not the images contain a person; a change calculation section for calculating, when the human determination section determines that the images contain a person, a change in a moving speed of the person contained in the images; an output control section for selecting content which includes a different video matter according to a result of calculation by the change calculation section and a result of determination by the human determination section from the plurality of pieces of content stored in the storage device and causing the content output device to output the selected content; and a speed determination section for determining whether or not the result of calculation by the change calculation section indicates a decrease in the moving speed; wherein the output control section includes: a first output section for outputting first content when the human determination section or the speed determination section determines NO, and a second output section for outputting second content different from the first content, instead of the first content, when the speed determination section determines that a result of calculation by the change calculation section indicates a decrease in the moving speed of at least one person.
