  • Patent number: 10582242
    Abstract: When a camera server receives an instruction involving invalidation of viewing limitation (masking processing) of video from a privileged client, the camera server limits viewing of video data with respect to a general client and a recording client. The camera server stores the video data of a limited period in a secondary storage device. When the camera server receives an instruction involving validation of the viewing limitation from the privileged client, the camera server transmits the stored video data of the limiting period to the recording client.

  • Patent number: 10458832
    Abstract: A method for the functional diagnosis of an electromechanical fill state measuring device in which a displacement element on a measuring wire is lowered into a filling material in a container such that in an equilibrium state, the weight of the displacement element minus a displacement element buoyancy, which depends upon at least one equilibrium volume, is determined to be equal to a resulting weight of the displacement element. The resulting weight is specified, and the specified resulting weight is kept constant by correspondingly changing the length of the measuring wire in the equilibrium state. The fill state of the filling material is ascertained using the length of the lowered measuring wire. In order to diagnose a function, the specified value of the equilibrium volume of the displacement element is changed, and the resulting change in the length of the measuring wire is ascertained on the basis of the constant equilibrium state of the resulting weight.

  • Patent number: 7249317
    Abstract: This invention allows easy update of an image to be included in a document which is submitted on the network. For this purpose, data that set the image sensing times and image sensing states of a camera (111) the pan angle, tilt angle, and zoom ratio of which can be varied, are stored in an HD (106). If one of the stored times has been reached, image sensing is done in accordance with the set contents, and the obtained image is stored in the HD (106). Upon launching a candidate edit program, an old document inserted with images is displayed on a CRT (103). When a desired image is designated, it is substituted by a new, sensed image candidate corresponding to that designation position. The created document is then uploaded to a WWW server.

  • Patent number: 6760063
    Abstract: For easy operation of switching a plurality of cameras, the cameras are arranged in juxtaposition such that the image-sensible range between the cameras partially overlap each other. A frame 36 indicative of a combined image-sensible range which includes an image-sensible range of each of the plurality of cameras is displayed on a monitor screen, and a frame 38 indicative of an image-sensing range of a selected camera is displayed in the frame 36 with a position and size corresponding to the direction and magnification of the image sensing. A sensed image of a corresponding camera is continuously displayed in the frame 38. By moving the frame 38, the image-sensing direction of the corresponding camera is controlled, and by enlarging/reducing the frame 38, the magnification of the corresponding camera is controlled.
