Abstract: A monitoring system includes a first imaging device, a second imaging device, and a controller. The first imaging device captures an image of a first imaging area to generate first captured image data indicating a first captured image. The second imaging device captures an image of a second imaging area to generate second captured image data indicating a second captured image. The controller detects the events. The events include a pre-event. The pre-event is an imaging obstruction act in which imaging is obstructed in the first imaging area. The controller calculates a first obstruction area rate, and calculates a second obstruction area rate. When the first obstruction area rate is equal to or greater than a threshold and the second obstruction area rate is less than the threshold, the controller detects the imaging obstruction act as the pre-event.

Abstract: A monitoring system detects an event happening to a detection target, and includes imaging devices, storage, and a controller. The imaging devices each capture an image of an imaging area including the detection target to generate captured image data indicating a captured image. The storage stores therein a detection range in the captured image. The controller detects a change to the captured image in the detection range based on the captured image data. The controller determines one of the imaging devices that has provided a captured image whose image exhibiting a portion of the detection target has a larger area among the captured images to be a main imaging device. Upon detecting a change to a captured image in the detection range captured by the main imaging device, the controller changes the detection range of the main imaging device so that the detection range encloses the detection target image.

Abstract: A monitoring system includes a first imaging device, a controller, storage, and a notifying section. The first imaging device captures an image of a first imaging area to generate first captured image data indicating a first captured image. The controller detects the events based on the first captured image data. The storage stores data indicating a first flag and a second flag. The events include a pre-event and a post-event detected after the pre-event has ended. The post-event indicates a detection target removal act for a detection target placed in the first imaging area. The controller changes the first flag from the off state to an on state upon detecting the pre-event, holds the first flag in the on state even after the pre-event has ended, changes the second flag from the off state to the on state upon detecting the post-event, and notifies of consecutive event occurrence information.

Abstract: A login support system includes an electronic apparatus, a camera, a storage unit, and a control unit that includes a processor and acts, when the processor executes a login support control program, as a face authentication section, a gesture determination section, and a controller. The face authentication section extracts a face image of a person from a captured image captured by the camera and, when the extracted face image coincides with any of pieces of face information stored in the storing unit, authenticates the extracted face image. The gesture determination section detects a gesture of a person on a basis of the captured image and determines whether the detected gesture coincides with a prescribed gesture. When the face image of the person is authenticated and the gesture of the person is determined as coinciding with the prescribed gesture, the controller permits a login to the electronic apparatus to that person.

Abstract: A surveillance terminal apparatus includes a storage unit, a communication unit, a picture identifier, a reader, a facial recognition processor, a display unit, and a playback controller. The picture identifier identifies, as an entry picture and an exit picture, a part of the picture of a target person shot by an imaging device and stored in the storage unit.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a determination unit, a process identifying unit, a color changing unit, and an image forming unit. The determination unit determines whether the writing image identified by a writing image identifying unit matches a preliminarily determined writing pattern. The process identifying unit identifies a color change process corresponding to the writing pattern when the writing image is determined to match the writing pattern at the determination unit. The color changing unit deletes the writing image from the image and changes a display style in the image to a display style with the writing color indicated in the color information in accordance with the color change process identified by the process identifying unit. The image forming unit forms an image obtained such that the color changing unit changes the display style in the image to the display style with the writing color on a recording sheet.

Abstract: A management system includes an electronic device, a plurality of image pickup devices, a storage unit, and a server. A first control unit in the server detects an image portion indicating a face of a person in a captured image, collates the detected image portion to face images stored in the storage unit, and specifies, as a person inside a building, a person whose face image is identical to the image portion. When an error is detected in the electronic device, a second control unit in the electronic device specifies, among persons specified by the first control unit, a person whom error handling capability information stored in the storage section indicated as capable of handling the error, obtains, among the captured images captured by the plurality of the image pickup devices, a captured image showing the specified person, and allows a display to display the obtained captured image.
