摘要： A moving picture file is generated from moving picture data received from a camera. Control sequence information from the camera corresponding to the generated moving picture file, and information relating to an address of the camera, are incorporated into the moving picture file. The moving picture file is generated by dividing the received moving picture data, based on camera control information.

摘要： This invention provides an image input system capable of setting an arbitrary imaging inhibited area. This system displays a map showing the positions of cameras arranged in an office and the directions in which these cameras can be aimed, or displays the view angles of the cameras. An operator designates an imaging inhibited area on the map. In accordance with the designated imaging inhibited area, a limiting direction is calculated for each camera, and each camera is so controlled as not to point in that direction. Even when cameras are fixed, the system controls display so that an imaging inhibited area is not displayed.

摘要： The present invention provides a method, apparatus, and system for performing image sensing operations in an efficient manner in response to video data transmission requests or video camera control requests issued by a plurality of clients. The invention also provides a storage medium on which a program implementing the method is stored. A managing apparatus manages a plurality of camera servers each including a video camera and a controller. When the apparatus receives a video signal transmission request or a video camera control permission request from a client via a network, an available camera server is selected and connected to the client so that the client can control the camera server and display the video signal transmitted from that camera server. Each client can perform a desired camera control operation, receive a desired video signal, and display it on its screen without having to know which camera server is transmitting the video signal to the client.

摘要： There is disclosed a system capable of dispensing with the video/audio encoder in each communication terminal. A switch selects one of plural video/audio inputs. A video capture device of a transmission apparatus digitizes the selected video signal. A video encoder effects compression-encoding of the video capture device according to motion JPEG, MPEG and H.261. A selector sets compression video data to be transmitted, among the video data compressed by different encoding methods, and sends such data to a communication buffer. An audio encoder digitizes and encodes the selected audio signal and sends such signal to the communication buffer. The encoded video and audio data of the communication buffer are read to a network. A control circuit controls devices according to control commands received through the network.

摘要： A camera control system capable of controlling a video camera of a camera server apparatus according to a control command from clients is arranged not to accept requests for a right to control the video camera from any of clients when the number of clients receiving a video image picked up by the video camera exceeds a predetermined number. If the number of clients is less than the predetermined number, the camera control system, upon receipt of a request for the control right from any of clients, accepts the request to permit the client to control the video camera.
