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.
