INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18267542 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing apparatus that can analyze image data captured by a camera to determine the person-to-person distance in a space, evaluate the density of people in the space, and output a determination result.

  • Acquires image data of a predetermined space captured by a camera
  • Generates measurement data including person-to-person distance between individuals in the image data
  • Sets space data about the size of the space
  • Determines the appropriateness of the density of persons in the space based on the measurement data and space data
  • Outputs a determination result

      1. Potential Applications
  • Crowd management in public spaces
  • Social distancing monitoring in public areas
  • Security surveillance in crowded environments
      1. Problems Solved
  • Efficient monitoring of social distancing guidelines
  • Improved crowd control and safety measures
  • Enhanced security surveillance capabilities
      1. Benefits
  • Real-time analysis of person-to-person distances
  • Automated evaluation of crowd density
  • Quick identification of overcrowded areas for timely intervention


Original Abstract Submitted

An information processing apparatus includes at least one memory storing instructions, and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to execute the instructions to acquire image data of a predetermined space captured by a camera, generate measurement data including a person-to-person distance between persons included in the image data, set space data about a size of the space, determine whether a state of density of the persons in the space is appropriate or not, based on the measurement data and the space data, and output a determination result.
