Publication number: 20230230380Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes an image processing unit and a risk information generation unit. By processing at least one image, the image processing unit identifies a caution-requiring location being a location where a proximity indicator being an indicator related to a proximity state between a plurality of persons satisfies a criterion. The risk information generation unit outputs information indicating the caution-requiring location. For example, the information is displayed on a display unit through a display control unit. For each person, the image processing unit computes a first distance being the distance to the closest person to the person. Then, for each of a plurality of locations, the image processing unit counts the number of times the first distance has a reference value or less. Then, the proximity indicator is set by using the number of times the first distance has the reference value or less.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 22, 2021Publication date: July 20, 2023Applicant: NEC CorporationInventors: Gaku Nakano, Shoji Nishimura, Yoshitaka Higeta, Youtarou Noda, Shigeki Shinoda, Yuzo Senda, Shin Tominaga, Masumi Ishikawa, Daisuke Ikefuji, Kana Takizawa, Kenichi Ishii, Yoshiyuki Satou, Eishi Arita, Shota Yamamoto, Shinya Yamasaki, Narumitsu Notomi, Aki Nakamura
