  • Patent number: 11076131
    Abstract: A video collection system includes: a plurality of terminals; and a video collection server that requests at least one of the plurality of terminals to perform information provision. The video collection server includes a calculation part, a determination part, and a request part. The calculation part calculates, based on information acquired from a camera(s), a first area(s) imaged by the camera(s). The determination part determines a second area(s) as an information provision target(s) based on a location(s) of the first area(s). The request part selects, based on respective locations of the plurality of terminals and a location(s) of the second area(s), a terminal(s) to be requested to perform the information provision from the plurality of terminals and requests the selected terminal(s) to provide video data of the second area(s).

  • Patent number: 8782663
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a terminal device having an operation system and is capable of using a first application program for use in real time communication and a second application program for another purpose simultaneously on the operation system, the terminal device is characterized by being provided with a means for setting interval between system calls which calculates a frequency of system call executions when the issuance of the system call to the operation system by the second application program is simultaneously executed during the real time communication by the first application program, and when the execution frequency has exceeded a predetermined threshold, sets an execution interval time between the system calls to a given length of time or more.

  • Publication number: 20120324544
    Abstract: This invention is directed to achievement of a content sharing with a high level of safety by restricting the other end of communication with which contents are shared. An information processing apparatus, which can communicate with first and second terminal apparatuses, manages an access right required for the user of the first terminal apparatus to access contents on a network. The information processing apparatus determines whether a communication, in which the other party of communication is specified, is performed between the first and second terminal apparatuses. In the case of being determined that the first and second terminal apparatuses is performing the communication with each other, the information processing apparatus utilizes the access right to permit an access from the second terminal apparatus to the contents.
