Patent number: 10277831Abstract: A position identifying apparatus includes multiple image capturers, an accumulating unit, a deriving unit, and an identifying unit. The image capturers capture images of predetermined image capturing ranges. The accumulating unit accumulates in time series movement track information of a person included in the images captured by the image capturers. The deriving unit derives, using the movement track information accumulated in the accumulating unit, for each image position in an image captured by any one of the image capturers, a probability that, at a same time as a time at which a person is image-captured at the image position, a person is image-captured at each image position in an image captured by another one of the image capturers. The identifying unit identifies, from the probability derived by the deriving unit, an image position common to the images captured by the image capturers.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2016Date of Patent: April 30, 2019Assignee: FUJI XEROX CO., LTD.Inventors: Jun Shingu, Takeshi Onishi, Masatsugu Tonoike, Daisuke Ikeda, Yusuke Uno, Yusuke Yamaura

Patent number: 10068335Abstract: A moving-object counter apparatus includes a first captured-image acquisition unit, a moving-object moving-path specifying unit, a virtual-line setting unit, and a first moving-object counter unit. The first captured-image acquisition unit acquires multiple images captured at respective times different from each other by a first imaging apparatus capturing images of a predetermined region. The moving-object moving-path specifying unit specifies, on the basis of the acquired images, one or more moving paths along which one or more respective moving objects have moved in the predetermined region. The virtual-line setting unit sets a virtual line on the basis of the specified one or more moving paths. The first moving-object counter unit counts, by counting one or more moving paths that cross the set virtual line among the specified one or more moving paths, one or more moving objects that have passed through the predetermined position.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2016Date of Patent: September 4, 2018Assignee: FUJI XEROX CO., LTD.Inventors: Daisuke Ikeda, Takeshi Onishi, Masatsugu Tonoike, Jun Shingu, Yusuke Uno, Yusuke Yamaura

Patent number: 9947105Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a first acquisition unit, a second acquisition unit, and an associating unit. The first acquisition unit acquires first identification information stored on an object carried by a person. The second acquisition unit acquires second identification information identifying the person. When the same combination as a combination of the first identification information acquired on first date and time, and the second identification information acquired on second date and time corresponding to the first date and time is acquired on third date and time different from the first date and time, the associating unit associates the first identification information with the second identification information in the combination.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2016Date of Patent: April 17, 2018Assignee: FUJI XEROX CO., LTD.Inventor: Masatsugu Tonoike

Patent number: 9934584Abstract: A line-of-movement generating apparatus includes an acquisition unit, a detection unit, an extraction unit, a setting unit, a calculation unit, and a confirmation unit. The acquisition unit acquires images captured by an image capturing device at respective multiple time points. The detection unit detects one or more moving objects from the images. The extraction unit extracts a line of movement of each of the detected one or more moving objects. The setting unit sets a region where a line of movement tends to have a missing portion in an image captured by the image capturing device. The calculation unit calculates a likelihood indicating a degree of certainty of the extracted line of movement of each of the one or more moving objects. The confirmation unit confirms a line of movement of the one or more moving objects on the basis of the calculated likelihood.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2016Date of Patent: April 3, 2018Assignee: FUJI XEROX CO., LTD.Inventors: Yusuke Uno, Masatsugu Tonoike, Daisuke Ikeda, Yusuke Yamaura, Jun Shingu
