Publication number: 20220078351Abstract: Data transmission systems and methods. In one embodiment, a data transmission system includes a plurality of imaging devices, a plurality of control devices, and an information processing device. One of the plurality of control devices operates as a master control device and a remainder of the plurality of control devices operate as client control devices. The information processing device is configured to transmit an acquisition request for one or more images captured by a first imaging device of the plurality of imaging devices to the master control device. The master control device is configured to transfer the acquisition request to one of the client control devices that controls the first imaging device. In response to receiving the acquisition request, the one of the client control devices is configured to transfer a list of images captured by the first imaging device to the information processing device.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 10, 2021Publication date: March 10, 2022Inventors: Yuki Hara, Tatsuya Ueda, Natsumi Kaneko
