==IMAGE CAPTURING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD OF IMAGE CAPTURING APPARATUS, AND PROGRAM RECORDING MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18495067 titled 'IMAGE CAPTURING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD OF IMAGE CAPTURING APPARATUS, AND PROGRAM RECORDING MEDIUM

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes an image capturing apparatus that tracks a target within a specified area and notifies a client device if the target moves outside of this area.

* The apparatus captures images of a tracking target.
* It receives information about a first tracking area and a second area from a client device.
* It notifies the client device if the second area is outside the range of the first area.

== Potential Applications ==
This technology could be used in surveillance systems, sports tracking, and augmented reality applications.

== Problems Solved ==
This technology helps in monitoring and tracking specific targets within defined areas, ensuring they do not move outside the designated zones.

== Benefits ==
The apparatus provides real-time notifications to the client device, enhancing security and tracking capabilities.

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
Commercial applications could include security systems, sports training tools, and location-based services.

== Possible Prior Art ==
Prior art may include similar tracking and monitoring systems used in security cameras and sports tracking devices.

== Unanswered Questions ==

=== How does the apparatus determine the boundaries of the first tracking area? ===
The abstract does not specify the method used by the apparatus to establish the boundaries of the first tracking area.

=== What type of client apparatus is compatible with this image capturing technology? ===
The abstract does not mention the specific types of client devices that can interact with the image capturing apparatus.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

An image capturing apparatus as one aspect of the present invention images a tracking target, receives information of a first area, which is an area for tracking the tracking target, and information of a second area different from the first area, from a client apparatus, and notifies the client apparatus of information indicating whether the second area is outside a range of the first area as a first notification.
