TRANSFER CONTROL APPARATUS, OPERATION METHOD OF TRANSFER CONTROL APPARATUS, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17852493 titled 'TRANSFER CONTROL APPARATUS, OPERATION METHOD OF TRANSFER CONTROL APPARATUS, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a transfer control apparatus that analyzes statistics information and parameters from multiple image capturing devices to detect abnormalities and control the transfer of captured images accordingly.

  • The apparatus collects statistics information from multiple image capturing devices.
  • It also obtains parameters specific to each image capturing device.
  • Based on the statistics information and parameters, the apparatus determines if there are any abnormalities in each image capturing device.
  • The apparatus then controls the transfer of captured images based on the detected abnormalities.

Potential Applications

  • Surveillance systems: The technology can be used in surveillance systems with multiple cameras to detect any abnormalities or malfunctions in the cameras and adjust the transfer of captured images accordingly.
  • Photography: In professional photography settings, where multiple cameras are used simultaneously, this technology can help identify any issues with the cameras and manage the transfer of images effectively.

Problems Solved

  • Efficient monitoring: The technology solves the problem of monitoring multiple image capturing devices by automatically analyzing statistics and parameters to detect abnormalities, reducing the need for manual inspection.
  • Image transfer management: By controlling the transfer of captured images based on the detected abnormalities, the technology ensures that only reliable and high-quality images are transferred, saving storage space and bandwidth.

Benefits

  • Improved reliability: The technology helps identify abnormalities in image capturing devices, ensuring that only reliable devices are used for capturing and transferring images.
  • Time and cost savings: By automating the detection of abnormalities and controlling the transfer of images accordingly, the technology reduces the need for manual intervention and improves overall efficiency.
  • Enhanced image quality: By managing the transfer of images based on the detected abnormalities, the technology ensures that only high-quality images are transferred, improving the overall image output.


Original Abstract Submitted

A transfer control apparatus obtains statistics information related to a plurality of captured images captured by a plurality of image capturing apparatuses, obtains image capturing apparatus parameters of the plurality of image capturing apparatuses, determines an abnormality in each image capturing apparatus based on the statistics information and the image capturing apparatus parameters, and controls transfer of a plurality of captured images based on a determination.
