Abstract

A system includes a biometric sensor that detects biometric data of a person in a first region and a presuming unit that presumes that the person is a person to be tracked based on the biometric data. The system also includes a first camera acquiring first image data of the person in the first region and a second camera acquiring second image data of the person in a second region. The system further includes a monitoring unit that tracks the target person in the second region by checking the second image data with the first image data corresponding to the target person.

Claims (30)

1. A system, comprising:

a biometric sensor that measures biometric data of a person in a first region, the biometric data being measured is a variable value;

a presuming unit that presumes that the person is a target person to be tracked among one or more persons based on a measured value of the biometric data of the person measured by the biometric sensor;

a first camera that acquires first image data including an image of the target person in the first region;

a second camera that acquires second image data including an image of the target person in a second region; and

a monitoring unit that checks the second image data with the first image data corresponding to the target person and determines whether or not the target person enters the second region.

2. The system according to claim 1 , wherein

the presuming unit further calculates a stress index based on the measured value of the biometric data and presumes that the person is the target person when the calculated stress index is higher than a predetermined reference value.

3. The system according to claim 1 , wherein

the first image data includes a face image of the person,

the system further comprises a warning unit that emits a warning when the monitoring unit determines that the target person enters the second region, and

the warning unit displays the face image of the target person.

4. The system according to claim 1 , wherein

the biometric sensor is a contact based sensor.

5. The system according to claim 1 , wherein

the biometric data includes at least one of a brain wave, a brain blood flow, a pulse wave, a blood pressure, a respiration rate, a body temperature, or a perspiration.

6. The system according to claim 1 , wherein

the monitoring unit transmits a signal when the monitoring unit determines that the target person enters the second region, and

the monitoring unit does not transmit the signal when the monitoring unit determines that the target person does not enter the second region.

7. The system according to claim 1 , further comprising a memory that records the first image data corresponding to the target person, wherein

the monitoring unit checks the second image data with the first image data recorded in the memory to thereby track the target person in the second region.

8. The system according to claim 7 , wherein

the memory records the first image data in association with information indicating that the target person is tracked, and

the monitoring unit checks the second image data with the first image data associated with the information indicating that the target person is tracked.

9. A method, comprising:

measuring biometric data of a person with a biometric sensor in a first region, the biometric data being measured is a variable value;

presuming that the person is a target person to be tracked among one or more persons based on a measured value of the biometric data of the person measured by the biometric sensor;

acquiring first image data including an image of the target person in the first region;

acquiring second image data including an image of the target person in a second region; and

checking the second image data with the first image data corresponding to the target person and determining whether or not the target person enters the second region.
