MONITORING DEVICE, MONITORING SYSTEM, MONITORING METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18275322 titled 'MONITORING DEVICE, MONITORING SYSTEM, MONITORING METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM
Simplified Explanation
The technology described in the abstract is a monitoring device that can detect and ascertain abnormal situations by analyzing prescribed speech spoken by a person in a monitoring target area.
- Voice acquisition unit: Acquires prescribed speech spoken by a person in response to an abnormal situation.
- Person identification unit: Identifies the person who spoke the prescribed speech based on features obtained from the speech.
- Analysis unit: Searches for the identified person in images from a camera monitoring the area and analyzes their expression or actions.
- Abnormal situation evaluation unit: Evaluates the abnormal situation in the monitoring target area based on the analysis results.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in security systems, healthcare monitoring, and industrial safety to detect and respond to abnormal situations promptly.
Problems Solved
This technology helps in quickly identifying and evaluating abnormal situations, allowing for timely intervention and response to prevent potential harm or damage.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved safety and security, faster response times to emergencies, and enhanced monitoring capabilities in various environments.
Potential Commercial Applications
"Enhancing Security and Safety with Abnormal Situation Detection Technology"
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be existing monitoring systems that use speech recognition or facial recognition technology, but may not have the same level of integration and analysis for abnormal situation detection.
Unanswered Questions
The article does not address the specific privacy measures or protocols in place to protect the data collected and analyzed by the monitoring device.
What are the limitations of the technology in terms of accuracy and reliability in detecting abnormal situations?
The article does not discuss any potential limitations or challenges that may affect the accuracy or reliability of the abnormal situation detection technology.
Original Abstract Submitted
Provided is a novel technology with which the occurrence of an abnormal situation can be detected and the abnormal situation can be appropriately ascertained. A monitoring device () comprises: a voice acquisition unit () that acquires prescribed speech spoken by a person due to the occurrence of an abnormal situation in a monitoring target area; a person identification unit () that identifies the person who spoke the prescribed speech, on the basis of a feature obtained from the prescribed speech; an analysis unit () that searches for the identified person in the images from a camera which images the monitoring target area, and that analyzes an expression or action of the person; and an abnormal situation evaluation unit () that evaluates the abnormal situation in the monitoring target area, on the basis of the analysis results.
