<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To more accurately determine situations on the basis of images taken. <P>SOLUTION: This situation determining system 100 includes a video camera 110 for photographing areas near an intersection 1, and a PC 120 for connection to the video camera 110 via a network 101. The PC 120 functions as a determining device for determining the situation of the intersection 1 from the images taken with the video camera 110 in accordance with a program stored in a built-in external storage device. In this case, of the images taken with the video camera 110, the PC 120 cuts out the images of three areas, an area 20 where a car turning right is waiting, an area 30 of near opposing lanes, and an area 40 of distant opposing lanes, and performs preset analysis for the image of each area. By determining whether or not the result of analysis on the image of each area matches a preset result for determination, the situation is determined. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
