  An attribute information addition switch SW3 is provided on the left side as viewed from the front of the housing 10A of the wearable camera 10. When the police officer 7 depresses the attribute information addition switch SW3, the attribute information corresponding to the setting state is assigned to the video data currently recorded or the video data recorded immediately before.

  LED26a-26c is arrange | positioned at the upper surface seeing from the front of the housing | casing 10A of the wearable camera 10, as shown in FIG. Thereby, the police officer 7 can easily visually recognize the LEDs 26a to 26c with the wearable camera 10 attached. Note that the LEDs 26a to 26c may not be seen by anyone other than the seven police officers. Although not shown, a contact terminal 23 is provided on the lower surface of the wearable camera 10 when viewed from the front surface of the housing 10A.

  Next, transfer of video data in the wearable camera system 100 of the present embodiment will be described.

  In the present embodiment, video data captured by the wearable camera 10 is transferred to and saved in the in-vehicle recorder 62 of the in-vehicle system 60. Then, the video data captured by the wearable camera 10 and the video data captured by the in-vehicle camera 61 are collectively transferred from the in-vehicle recorder 62 to the server SV of the back-end system 100B, stored, and stored in the server SV. . The video data is transferred and recorded as video recording data including video data and meta information in association with meta information including attribute information.

  At this time, the wearable camera 10 communicates by connecting to the communication unit 102 of the in-vehicle recorder 62 through the communication unit 21, and recording data including video data stored in the storage unit 15 of the wearable camera 10 is transmitted to the in-vehicle recorder 62. Send. The in-vehicle recorder 62 receives the recording data by the communication unit 102 and stores the transferred recording data in the storage 111.

  In the wearable camera system 100, when the video data recorded by the police officer 7 on the site is stored in the server SV, it is necessary to transfer the data from the wearable camera 10 and the in-vehicle system 60 to the back-end system 100B in a normal method. Since the wearable camera 10 is carried around and used in various places, it may be damaged or lost. In addition, since video data has a large data size, a long time is required for data transfer. For example, depending on the video data, the data transfer time may take 1 hour. The wearable camera 10 often has a low performance and function of the device itself, and has a lower communication speed than the in-vehicle recorder 62 of the in-vehicle system 60. Therefore, more time is required for data transfer. In addition, wearable camera 10 may be restricted by functions at the time of data transfer, such as being unable to record simultaneously with data transfer.

  On the other hand, the in-vehicle recorder 62 is supplied with power from the vehicle (the police car 6) as the in-vehicle system 60, and includes a high-performance CPU 101 and a communication unit 102. By transferring the video data collectively from the in-vehicle recorder 62 to the server SV of the back-end system 100B, the video data can be transferred at high speed using the communication unit 102 having a high communication speed. In addition, the data transfer schedule can be flexibly set by transferring the video data from the in-vehicle recorder 62 at a time. For example, during patrol by the police car 6, during movement by the police car 6, returning to the police station 5, arriving at the police station 5 and parking the police car 6, video data can be automatically transferred at any time during free time. . In addition, when communication lines are busy, video data can be transferred by automatic processing when it is available. As a result, the time required to transfer the video data can be shortened. Also, video data can be transferred using the free time, and the time for data transfer can be used effectively.

  In addition, after the video data is transferred from the wearable camera 10 to the in-vehicle recorder 62, the transferred video data can be deleted. In this case, the wearable camera 10 confirms the completion of the transfer of the video data, and deletes the transferred video data in the storage unit 15. Thereby, in the wearable camera 10, the free space of the storage unit 15 can be increased, and a lot of new images can be captured. Due to the downsizing of the wearable camera 10, even if the capacity of the storage unit 15 is small, a lot of video data can be stored, and the total recording time can be extended.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of a data structure of recorded data, and FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of a data structure of a recorded video list. In the wearable camera 10 of the present embodiment, when recording, as shown in FIG. 6, together with the captured video data, meta information including attribute information related to the video data is generated, and the video data is associated with the two data. The data is stored in the storage unit 15 as data. That is, the video recording data recorded in the storage unit 15 includes video data and meta information. When recording with the in-vehicle camera 61, recording data including video data and meta information is recorded in the storage 111 of the in-vehicle recorder 62. When video data is transferred from the wearable camera 10 to the server SV, recording data including the video data and meta information is transferred to the server SV via the in-vehicle recorder 62 and stored.

  Meta information related to video data is recorded in the form of a recorded video list as shown in FIG. The meta information of the recorded video list includes event ID, time information, camera ID, user ID, attribute information, priority flag, and the like. The event ID is identification information for identifying a recording event. In the present embodiment, one recording operation from the start of recording to the end of recording is defined as one event, and an event ID is assigned to each event of the recording operation (hereinafter also referred to as a recording event). As the event ID, a video data ID based on a file name of the video data may be used. The time information is time information of each recording event, and for example, a recording start time (video start time) is given. As the time information, not only the recording start time but also the recording start time and the recording end time, the recording start time and the recording duration time, and the like may be used. In the example of FIG. 7, the recorded video list is recorded in order from the top of the recording start time from the top.

  The camera ID is identification information for identifying each wearable camera 10 or the in-vehicle camera 61. For example, the wearable camera 10 is BWC0001, the in-vehicle camera 61 is CAR0025, and the like. The user ID is identification information of the police officer 7 who is a user who uses the wearable camera 10. When the wearable camera 10 is used, a camera ID and a user ID are set so that it is possible to determine which individual camera used to record the recorded video data.

  The attribute information is classification information for identifying the type of video data. The attribute information is provided according to the operation of the attribute information addition switch SW3 of the wearable camera 10 by the user, the operation of the switch 109 of the in-vehicle recorder 62, or the operation of the in-vehicle PC 63 based on the setting contents of the attribute information set in advance. As the attribute information, for example, an attribute related to an incident that has occurred in the field, such as theft, drunk driving, or parking violation, is used.

  The priority flag is priority information for determining the transfer priority for each video data, for example, information indicating the presence or absence of the priority. The priority flag is given according to, for example, an operation of the attribute information addition switch SW3 by the user, an operation of the switch 109 of the in-vehicle recorder 62, or an operation of the in-vehicle PC 63. The priority information may be information indicating the priority in a plurality of stages. When recording with the wearable camera 10, there is video data that captures a scene where an event to be recorded does not occur, such as when recording using the automatic recording function, and not all video data is necessarily required. By giving a priority flag to video data, video data with a high priority can be transferred with priority. The priority flag can be automatically given to specific attribute information such as attribute information of a case type with high importance.

  Each of the above meta information is given by the processing of the MCU 19 of the wearable camera 10 or the processing of the CPU 101 of the in-vehicle recorder 62 at the start of recording or immediately after the end of recording, and is recorded in the storage unit 15 or the storage 111 in association with the video data. Is done. As shown in FIG. 7, when video data is transferred from the wearable camera 10 to the in-vehicle recorder 62, the video data recorded by the wearable camera 10 and the video recorded by the in-vehicle recorder 62 are recorded in the recorded video list of the in-vehicle recorder 62. Recorded together with data.

  Next, the video data transfer operation in the wearable camera system 100 of the present embodiment will be described in more detail.

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a procedure related to a transfer operation of recorded data from the wearable camera 10 to the in-vehicle recorder 62 in the present embodiment.

  Transfer (uploading) of recorded data including video data from the wearable camera 10 to the in-vehicle recorder 62 includes operation instructions from the user, time conditions such as a predetermined time and elapsed time, free space in the storage unit 15 and the amount of accumulated data. It is executed according to preset execution conditions such as capacity conditions.

  The MCU 19 of the wearable camera 10 determines whether the communication unit 21 is wirelessly connected to the communication unit 102 of the in-vehicle recorder 62 (step S11). When not wirelessly connected to the in-vehicle recorder 62, the communication unit 21 of the wearable camera 10 performs a wireless connection process with the communication unit 102 of the in-vehicle recorder 62 to enable wireless communication with the in-vehicle recorder 62 (step S12). . And it returns to the process of step S11.

  When wirelessly connected to the in-vehicle recorder 62, the MCU 19 of the wearable camera 10 determines whether uploading to the in-vehicle recorder 62 is valid (step S13). Here, the MCU 19 determines whether or not the setting for transferring the recording data to the in-vehicle recorder 62 (upload valid) is made based on the setting made in advance for the wearable camera 10. If uploading to the in-vehicle recorder 62 is not valid, the process returns to step S11.

  When uploading to the in-vehicle recorder 62 is valid, the MCU 19 of the wearable camera 10 sets _totalN = (number of recorded data in the wearable camera) and n = 1 as initial parameter settings at the time of recording data transfer (step S14). ). Here, _totalN corresponds to the number of recording data to be transferred, and n corresponds to a counter indicating the order of individual recording data to be transferred. Then, the MCU 19 determines whether or not _totalN is greater than 0 (step S15). Since _totalN is 1 or more at first, the MCU 19 proceeds to the subsequent processing.

  Next, the MCU 19 of the wearable camera 10 sets _cntRety = 5 as a parameter setting for retry (step S16). Here, _cntRety corresponds to the number of retries, and in this example, five retries are set.

  Subsequently, the MCU 19 of the wearable camera 10 reads the recording data to be transferred from the storage unit 15, transmits the recording data to the in-vehicle recorder 62 by the communication unit 21, and uploads it as video (n) (step S17).

  Then, the MCU 19 of the wearable camera 10 compares the hash values of both the data in the wearable camera 10 as the transfer source and the data in the in-vehicle recorder 62 as the transfer destination for the uploaded video (n) recording data (step S18). ). At this time, the MCU 19 requests and acquires the hash value of video (n) from the in-vehicle recorder 62. Subsequently, the MCU 19 determines whether or not the hash values of video (n) match (step S19). By comparing the hash values, it can be determined whether or not the transfer of the recorded data has been executed normally. If the hash values of video (n) match, the MCU 19 determines that the transfer of the recorded data has been executed normally, and deletes the recorded data of video (n) stored in the storage unit 15 in the wearable camera 10. (Step S20).

  Thereafter, the MCU 19 of the wearable camera 10 sets n = n + 1 (step S21) and _totalN = _totalN-1 (step S22), and returns to the process of step S15. In step S15, the MCU 19 determines whether or not _totalN is greater than 0, that is, whether or not recording data to be transferred remains. If _totalN is greater than 0 in step S15, the MCU 19 executes uploading to the in-vehicle recorder 62 in steps S16 to S22 for the next transfer target recording data in the same manner as in the previous time.

  If the hash values of video (n) do not match in step S19, the MCU 19 of the wearable camera 10 sets _cntRety = _cntRety-1 (step S23) and determines whether _cntRety is greater than 0 (step S24). Since _totalN is 5 at first, the MCU 19 returns to the process of step S17 and executes a retry of the video (n) recording data transfer process. When retrying the transfer process five times and _cntRety becomes 0 in step S24, the MCU 19 proceeds to the process of step S21, and n = n + 1 (step S21), _totalN = _totalN-1 (step S22), The process returns to step S15.

  If _totalN becomes 0 in step S15, that is, if there is no recording data to be transferred, the process returns to step S11.

  FIG. 9 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a procedure related to an operation of transferring recorded data from the in-vehicle recorder 62 to the back-end server SV in the present embodiment.

  Transfer (upload) of recorded data including video data from the in-vehicle recorder 62 to the server SV of the back-end system 100B is an operation state (such as an idle state) of the in-vehicle recorder 62 and a communication line state with the back-end system 100B. (Congestion status, etc.), time conditions such as a predetermined time and elapsed time, and the like are executed at a predetermined timing according to preset execution conditions.

  The CPU 101 of the in-vehicle recorder 62 determines whether the communication unit 102 is wirelessly connected to the server SV of the backend system 100B (step S31). When not wirelessly connected to the server SV, the communication unit 102 of the in-vehicle recorder 62 performs a wireless connection process with the server SV to enable wireless communication with the server SV (step S32). Then, the process returns to step S31.

  When wirelessly connected to the server SV, the CPU 101 of the in-vehicle recorder 62 determines whether uploading to the server SV is valid (step S33). Here, the CPU 101 determines whether or not the setting for transferring the recording data to the server SV (upload valid) is made based on the setting made in advance on the in-vehicle recorder 62. If uploading to the server SV is not valid, the process returns to step S31.

  When uploading to the server SV is valid, the CPU 101 of the in-vehicle recorder 62 sets _totalN = _totalM = (number of recording data in the in-vehicle recorder), n = 1, and m = 1 as initial parameter settings when recording data is transferred. Set (step S34). Here, _totalN is the number of recording data to be transferred, _totalM is the number of recording data to be transferred in the initial state, n is a counter indicating the order of individual recording data to be transferred, and m is recording data referred to as a priority transfer target. It corresponds to a counter indicating the number of. Then, the CPU 101 determines whether _totalN is greater than 0 (step S35). Since _totalN is 1 or more at first, the CPU 101 proceeds to the subsequent processing.

  Next, the CPU 101 of the in-vehicle recorder 62 sets _cntRety = 5 as a parameter setting for retry (step S36). Here, _cntRety corresponds to the number of retries, and in this example, five retries are set.

  Subsequently, the CPU 101 of the in-vehicle recorder 62 reads out the recording data to be transferred from the storage 111, refers to the priority flag of the meta information of the recording data, and determines the presence or absence of the priority flag (step S37). When there is a priority flag, the CPU 101 transmits the recording data to the server SV through the communication unit 102 and uploads it as video (n) (step S38).

  Then, the CPU 101 of the in-vehicle recorder 62 compares the hash values of both the data in the transfer-source in-vehicle recorder 62 and the data in the transfer-destination server SV for the uploaded video (n) recording data (step S39). . At this time, the CPU 101 requests and acquires the hash value of video (n) from the server SV. Subsequently, the CPU 101 determines whether or not the hash values of video (n) match (step S40). By comparing the hash values, it can be determined whether or not the transfer of the recorded data has been executed normally. If the hash values of video (n) match, the CPU 101 determines that the transfer of the recorded data has been executed normally, and deletes the recorded data of video (n) stored in the storage 111 in the in-vehicle recorder 62. (Step S41).

  Thereafter, the CPU 101 of the in-vehicle recorder 62 sets n = n + 1, m = m + 1 (step S42), and _totalN = _totalN-1 (step S43), and returns to the process of step S35. In step S <b> 35, the CPU 101 determines whether _totalN is greater than 0, that is, whether the recording data to be transferred remains. If _totalN is greater than 0 in step S35, the CPU 101 executes uploading to the server SV in steps S36 to S43 for the next transfer target recording data as in the previous time.

  In step S40, when the hash values of video (n) do not match, the CPU 101 of the in-vehicle recorder 62 sets _cntRety = _cntRety-1 (step S44) and determines whether _cntRety is greater than 0 (step S45). Since _totalN is 5 at first, the CPU 101 returns to the process of step S38 and executes a retry of the video (n) recording data transfer process. When the transfer process is retried five times and _cntRety becomes 0 in step S45, the CPU 101 proceeds to the process of step S42, and n = n + 1, m = m + 1 (step S42), _totalN = _totalN-1 (step As S43), the process returns to step S35.

  In step S37, when there is no priority flag, CPU101 of the vehicle-mounted recorder 62 determines whether m is larger than _totalM (step S46). Here, when m is equal to or less than _totalM, that is, when the number of recording data being referred to is equal to or less than the number of recording data to be transferred in the initial state and there is still recording data for which the priority flag has not been determined, the CPU 101 , M = m + 1 (step S47), and the process returns to step S35.

  In step S46, when m is larger than _totalM, that is, when the priority flag is determined with reference to all the recording data to be transferred, the CPU 101 of the in-vehicle recorder 62 refers to the time information of the meta information of the recording data. Then, unsent recording data is extracted in order from the oldest recording data with the earliest recording start time (step S48). Then, the CPU 101 proceeds to the process of step S38, and executes uploading to the server SV as the recorded data video (n) in steps S38 to S43, similarly to the recorded data with the priority flag.

  In step S35, if _totalN becomes 0, that is, if there is no recording data to be transferred, the process returns to step S31.

  Note that the transfer of the recording data according to the priority is not limited to the transfer from the in-vehicle recorder 62 to the server SV, but may be performed in the same way in the transfer from the wearable camera 10 to the in-vehicle recorder 62.

Thereby, the video data can be transferred to the server SV at high speed by the in-vehicle recorder 62, and the transfer time of the video data having a large capacity can be shortened.

  Also, the transfer of the video data from the in-vehicle recorder 62 to the server SV can be executed at any time by automatic processing during idle time when the user does not operate the system, such as when the police car 5 is moving or when the police car 5 is parked. At this time, when a large amount of time is required for data transfer processing, such as when transferring a large amount of video data, the in-vehicle recorder 62 intermittently transfers the video data at a transferable time to complete the transfer processing. Can do.

  Further, in the wearable camera 10, by deleting the video data that has been transferred to the in-vehicle recorder 62, the free space in the storage unit can be increased and the recordable time can be extended.
