In another example, when the wanted person is a person, the wanted information of the wanted person may include a person's name, age, sex, height, weight, body shape, facial shape, color of hair, hair, clothes supposed to be worn, and tone of speech. , Eye color, scar, and behavioral information.

The first communication unit 160 may receive arrangement information from at least one of the navigation device 200 that receives arrangement information from the server 300 or the server 300. Alternatively, the navigation 200 may perform some or all of the functions of the black box 100 by receiving arrangement information from the server 300 instead of the black box 100.

The black box 100 may capture an image (S120).

The camera 120 may capture an image. Such an image may be a moving image or a still image. When the camera 120 captures a video, the microphone 130 may record the voice.

The first controller 190 may control the camera 120 to capture an image. For example, the first controller 190 may control the camera 120 to capture an image according to a user input received through the first input unit 140. For another example, the first controller 190 may control the camera 120 to automatically capture an image while the vehicle is driving through the first sensor 170. As another example, the first controller 190 may control the camera 120 to periodically capture a still image at regular intervals. In another example, the first control unit 190 in the normal case when the camera 120 captures a low-quality image, the accident occurs according to the signal received from the first detection unit 170 or the microphone 130. Or when a dangerous situation occurs, the camera 120 may be controlled to capture a high quality image or to capture a separate still image.

The captured image may be stored in the first storage unit 180. Alternatively, the image may be transmitted to the external device through the first communication unit 160. For example, the first communication unit 160 of the black box 100 may transmit an image captured by at least one of the server 300 and the navigation 200. In this case, the navigation 200 that receives the image may transfer the image to the server 300 again through the second communication unit 230 or store the image in the second storage unit 250.

In addition, the first controller 190 temporarily stores the image photographed by the camera 120 in the storage unit 180, and semi-permanently stores the wanted image in the temporarily stored image when the wanted image is included in the temporarily stored image. If it is not included, it can be deleted.

The black box 100 may extract an identification image of an object included in the image from the captured image (S130).

The first controller 190 may extract an identification image from the image when the captured image includes an object that may correspond to an arrangement. That is, when the wanted object is a vehicle, when the vehicle is included in the image captured by the camera 120 as shown in FIG. 7, the license plate image may be extracted from the image. In this case, when the camera 120 captures a video, the first controller 190 may extract a still image at a predetermined frame interval from the video to extract an identification image from the still image.

In addition, the first controller 190 may extract the identification image from the image according to a predetermined method, and may preprocess the image to facilitate the extraction of the image. Since the preprocessing process is not necessarily performed before the extraction of the image, it may be performed even during the step of obtaining the identification information of the object by analyzing the identification image to be described later.

The preprocessing process may include at least one of angle correction, color tone correction, contrast correction, shadow correction, and noise removal of the image. Since the sharpness of the image that has been preprocessed may be improved, the first controller 190 may recognize the image more easily by using the preprocessed image.

In this case, the color tone correction may include at least one of graying of the image, black and white binarization, and highlighting of a specific color.Shading correction may be adjusting the thickness of the boundary line in the image, and noise reduction may remove unnecessary blemishes in the image. It may include removing.

Meanwhile, the first control unit 190 may extract an identification image from the original image or the preprocessed image. The identification image may mean an image of a part that can identify the object as at least a part of the photographed object. For example, the identification image may be a license plate image of a vehicle when arranging a vehicle, or may be an image of at least a part of the appearance of a person such as a face image of a man when arranging a man.

Hereinafter, a method of extracting the license plate image of the vehicle from the captured image will be described again with reference to FIGS. 7 and 8. 8 is a view of a license plate image extracted from an image in the first embodiment of the reporting method according to the present invention.

As illustrated in FIG. 7, the first controller 190 may acquire an image including a vehicle through the camera 120. In this case, the image including the vehicle may include an image of a license plate for identifying the vehicle. The first controller 190 may extract the license plate image as shown in FIG. 8 as the identification image from the image.

The license plate of a vehicle is generally manufactured to have a certain shape according to a standard set in each country. In many cases, these license plates can have the following characteristics:

* First of all, the license plate has a certain rectangular shape with a series of numbers, letters and symbols inside the rectangle. Next, in the license plate, the background and text are composed of different specific colors. In this case, the background color and the color of the text are generally different from each other in the hue, saturation, and brightness as extreme as the complementary color relationship. For example, the background may be green and the text may be white.

The first controller 190 may extract the license plate in various ways by using the features of the license plate.

First, the license plate is generally provided in a rectangular shape according to a predetermined standard. Accordingly, the first controller 190 may perform edge detection on the image to extract the area constituting the rectangle according to a standard in which horizontal and vertical boundary lines are defined, using the license plate.

Second, the number plate is written in a relatively narrow area, the number of times the change in color, saturation, brightness, etc. changes more frequently than other areas. Accordingly, the first controller 190 may extract a region in which the hue, saturation, brightness, etc., change continuously and rapidly.

Third, in the image including the license plate and the vehicle, it is common that there are very few vertical boundaries except for the license plate. Accordingly, the first controller 190 may extract the boundary line in the vertical direction by performing boundary line extraction from the image and extract the region therebetween with the license plate.

Fourth, since the license plate has a background color of a predetermined color according to the standard, the first controller 190 may extract a region consisting of a specific color into the license plate using RGB (red-green-blue) or HIS color information of the image. have.

The first controller 190 may extract the license plate image from the captured image using at least one of the above-described method and other license plate image extraction methods that are obvious to those skilled in the art. have.

Hereinafter, a method of extracting a face image of a person from the captured image will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10. FIG. 9 is a view of an image including a person photographed through a camera 120 in the first embodiment of the reporting method according to the present invention, and FIG. 10 is a view of the first embodiment of the reporting method according to the present invention. A diagram of facial images extracted from an image.

As illustrated in FIG. 9, the first controller 190 may acquire an image including a person through the camera 120. In this case, the image including the person may include at least a part of an image of the appearance of the person. The first controller 190 may extract the face image as shown in FIG. 10 as the identification image from the image.

The first controller 190 may extract the facial image in various ways.

First, the face consists entirely of the color of the person's skin and the color of the person and hair, and in part the color of the pupil. It consists of white on the eyes and the color of the lips. The first controller 190 may extract, as a face image, an area in which the above-mentioned colors are concentrated in a certain area of the image by using the color information.

Second, the face includes eyes, nose, mouth and ears, and the components of the face are arranged in a certain geometric shape. The first controller 190 may detect a boundary line from the image, and extract a region where the boundary line, which is estimated as a component of the face, is disposed in a predetermined geometric shape as a face image.

Third, since the face generally has the shape of an oval, a circular shape, and an egg shape, the first controller 190 may extract the inside of the boundary line having such a shape as a face image by detecting the boundary line.

The first controller 190 is a person having ordinary skill in the art, the method for detecting the face using the Eigen function, the method for detecting the face using the neural network, and other aspects of the present invention. The facial image may be extracted from the captured image using at least one of other facial image extraction methods that are obvious to the user.

On the other hand, the step of extracting the identification image from the above-described image is not necessarily performed by the black box 100. In other words, at least a part of the step of extracting the identification image from the image may be performed by the navigation 200. For example, the black box 100 may transmit the captured image to the navigation 200 and extract the identification image from the image received by the navigation 200.

The black box 100 may obtain identification information of the object by analyzing the extracted identification image (S140).

The first controller 190 may obtain identification information of the object by analyzing the extracted identification image as described above. Here, the identification information of the object may mean information for identifying the object. The identification information of the object may include information of contents corresponding to the identification information of the arrangement.

For example, when the object is a vehicle, the identification information of the object may include at least one of vehicle number, type, size, color, and other information about an appearance feature of the vehicle. For example, when the object is a person, the person's name, age, sex, height, weight, body shape, facial shape, color of hair, hair shape, clothing assumed to be worn, tone, eye color, scar and It may include at least one of the information on the behavioral characteristics.

In particular, when the identification image is a license plate image of the vehicle, the identification information of the object may be a vehicle number, and when the identification image is a face image of a person, the identification information of the object may be facial information.

Hereinafter, a method of obtaining a vehicle number by analyzing a license plate image of the vehicle will be described with reference to FIGS. 8 and 11 again. FIG. 11 is a diagram related to the analysis of the license plate image in the first embodiment of the reporting method according to the present invention. FIG.

As described above, the first controller 190 may extract the license plate image shown in FIG. 8 when the vehicle is included in the captured image. The first control unit 190 may obtain the vehicle number from the license plate image.

The first control unit 190 may first separate a single character area, that is, a plurality of single sentence areas, as shown in FIG. 11 from the license plate image. The first controller 190 may extract the single character region in a similar manner to that of extracting the license plate image from the captured image.

When the single character area is determined, the first controller 190 may analyze the single character area through a character recognition technique to recognize the single character and obtain a vehicle number based on the recognized single characters.

The character recognition technique may include at least one of a circular matching method, a syntactic method, a method using a neural network algorithm, and various other character recognition methods. Here, the circular matching method is a method for recognizing a character by matching the character with a standard character pattern, and the syntactic method is a method for recognizing a character in consideration of the structural information of the character, that is, the size and the slope.

Meanwhile, the first controller 190 acquires and analyzes a vehicle image as an identification image from the captured image in addition to the vehicle number described above with respect to the vehicle, and uses the characteristics of the appearance of the size, type, and color of the vehicle as object identification information. You might get it.

Hereinafter, a method of obtaining facial information by analyzing a face image of a person will be described again with reference to FIGS. 10 and 12. 12 is a view of the analysis of the facial image in the first embodiment of the reporting method according to the present invention.

As described above, the first controller 190 may extract the face image shown in FIG. 10 when a person is included in the captured image. The first controller 190 may acquire facial information by analyzing the facial image. Here, the facial information may mean information on facial features.

The first controller 190 analyzes at least one of features related to each of the components of the face such as eyes, nose, mouth and ears and features related to them from the face image to obtain face information including these features. can do.

Features relating to each of the components of the face may include at least one of the position, length, angle, size, and shape of the components of each face, the relationship between the components may include a positional relationship between each component . For example, the first control unit 190 analyzes the facial image, and as shown in FIG. 12, the distance between the eyes F1, the angle of the eyebrows F2, the size of the nose F3, and the size of the mouth F4. Facial information).

The first controller 190 is a structural method for finding a geometric feature of the facial image, a method using a mathematical transformation filter such as polar coordinate transformation or wavelet transformation, principal component analysis, local feature analysts, linear Facial information can be obtained by analyzing using statistical models such as linear discriminant analysis, KL transformation, neural network model, and Bayesian probabilistic model of 3D information.

On the other hand, the first control unit 190 obtains and analyzes the appearance image of the person as an identification image in addition to the facial information described above with respect to the person, and analyzes various appearance information including the gender, body information, clothes information, hair shape information, etc. of the person. Will be able to obtain.

As described above, the step of obtaining the identification information of the object by analyzing the identification image does not necessarily have to be performed by the black box 100. In other words, at least a part of obtaining the identification information of the object by analyzing the identification image may be performed by the navigation 200.

The black box 100 may compare the identification information of the object and the identification information of the wanted item and determine whether the object corresponds to the wanted item (S150). Determining whether the object is wanted for arrangement may not necessarily be performed by the black box 100, and at least some of the steps may be performed by the navigation 200.

As described above, the first controller 190 may determine whether the object corresponds to the wanted item by comparing the obtained identification information of the object and the received wanted information. When the identification information of the object is included in the identification information of the arrangement target, the first controller 190 may determine that the object corresponds to the arrangement arrangement. Alternatively, the first controller 190 may compare the identification information of the object with the identification information of the wanted item and determine the object as a wanted item when there is a similarity more than a predetermined level.

For example, when the identification information of the object is a vehicle number of a photographed vehicle and the identification information of an arrangement is a vehicle number of at least one wanted vehicle, the first controller 190 has at least one vehicle number of the photographed vehicle. When one of the vehicle numbers of the wanted vehicle is matched, it can be determined that the object corresponds to the wanted arrangement.

For another example, the first controller 190 may determine the vehicle as the wanted vehicle when a certain number of characters match, that is, substantially match, even if the vehicle number does not match the wanted vehicle number. . That is, when only one or two letters of all the letters are different and all other letters match, the vehicle may be determined as a wanted vehicle.

As another example, even when only geometrically similar characters are different in the vehicle number, the vehicle may be determined as a wanted vehicle. Specifically, since the numbers '5' and '8' may frequently cause a recognition error during the character recognition process, when the vehicle number is '1235' and the wanted vehicle number is '1238', the vehicle may be determined as a wanted vehicle.

On the other hand, when the identification information of the object is facial information, and the identification information of the wanted person is at least one of the most wanted faces, since the face information of the object and the face information of the wanted person are generally hard to completely match, there is almost no first case. The controller 190 may compare the face information of the photographed object with the face information of the wanted person, and determine whether the person photographed is a wanted person when it is substantially the same or similar. For example, when facial information includes information on the angle of the eyebrows, it may be determined that the difference of about 1 degree is substantially the same.

The black box 100 may transmit the report information when the object is a wanted item (S160).

The first controller 190 may transmit the report information when it is determined through the first communication unit 160 that the object corresponds to the arrangement. The first communication unit 160 may transmit the report information to an external device including at least one of the navigation 200 and the server 300.

Meanwhile, when the above-described steps are performed by the navigation 200 or when the navigation 200 receives the reporting information from the black box 100, the navigation 200 may transmit the reporting information to the server 300.

Here, the report information may include identification information of the photographed object, information about a wanted item, photographed image, extracted identification image, report time, report location, reporter, and other information related to the report.

For example, the reporting information about the vehicle may include at least one of a vehicle number of the photographed vehicle, a vehicle number of a wanted vehicle, an image including a vehicle, a license plate image, and a moving direction of the reporting vehicle.

In another example, the reporting information about the person may include a wanted person's name, facial image, facial information, location of discovery, time of discovery, direction of movement, and the like. In this case, the navigation 200 may acquire the found position according to the position information of the time when the image was captured. The navigation 200 may provide such location information to the black box 100 and the black box 100 may obtain the report information according to the location information. Alternatively, the navigation 200 may receive part of the report information from the black box 100, add location information to the received report information, and transmit the location information to an external device, for example, the server 300.

Meanwhile, the black box 100 may receive a signal instructing transmission of the report information from the user, and may selectively transmit the report information when the signal is obtained.

Performing a report after the black box 100 receives an input indicating a transmission from a user before transmitting the report information may have various advantages.

First, even if the black box 100 finds an arrangement through photographing an image through the camera 120, the user may not want to report. Thus, it may be necessary to obtain the user's permission before the report to perform the report only if the user wants the report.

Second, it may be inaccurate to analyze an image taken by the black box 100 to determine whether an object included in the image is a wanted object. However, performing an inaccurate report by the black box 100 may lead to an investigation by a related agency. It can cause confusion and cause the server to be reported to perform unnecessary operations. Therefore, when the user first determines that the object included in the image captured by the black box 100 corresponds to a wanted object, the user may secondarily re-determine and determine whether to perform the report. .

To this end, when the first controller 190 primarily determines that the object corresponds to a wanted item, the first controller 190 may control the first output unit 150 to output information for secondly determining whether the object needs a wanted item. Can be. In this case, the information for determining whether the object is wanted for arrangement may include at least one of a photographed image, an identification image of the object, and identification information of the object, and identification information of the arrangement target.

For example, the first output unit 150 may output the license plate image extracted from the photographed image and the vehicle number of the arrangement. As a result, the user may be provided with the vehicle number of the object according to the license plate image and the vehicle number of the wanted vehicle and may determine whether the object included in the captured image is a wanted object.

The first input unit 140 may receive a signal for instructing transmission of the report information from the user. As described above, when the first output unit 150 provides the user with information for determining whether the object is to be arranged, the user determines whether the photographed object is a wanted item, and determined to be wanted. At this time, a signal indicating a report may be input through the first input unit 140 of the black box 100.

When the first controller 190 acquires a signal indicating transmission of the report information through the first input unit 140, the first controller 190 may transmit the report information through the first communication unit 160 as described above.

According to the first embodiment of the reporting method according to the present invention, an object included in the captured image may be analyzed to find a wanted item and report it. In other words, at least one of the black box 100 and the navigation 200 finds an arranging target and notifies the relevant agency to reduce the time and manpower required to find the arranging target.

In addition, according to the first embodiment, the server 300 determines whether at least one of the black box 100 and the navigation 200 is an arrangement of the wanted object by using the arrangement information instead of the server 300. There is an effect that can not handle excessive work.

In addition, according to the first embodiment, it is possible to easily find the wanted object by providing various information such as the time or location where the wanted object was found.

Hereinafter, a second embodiment of the reporting method according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 13 and 14. FIG. 13 is a flowchart of a second embodiment of a reporting method according to the present invention, and FIG. 14 is a diagram of transmission of arrangement information according to an arrangement area in a second embodiment of the reporting method according to the present invention.

According to a second embodiment of the reporting method according to the present invention, as illustrated in FIG. 13, transmitting arrangement information including identification information of a reporting target (S210) and receiving reporting information including identification information of a reporting target ( S220), comparing the report information and arrangement information to determine whether the reported object corresponds to the arrangement of the wanted (S230), providing information when the reported object corresponds to the arrangement of the arrangement (S240) and reporting At least one of selecting a whistleblower according to the whistleblowing information as an award target when the object corresponds to a wanted item (S250). Hereinafter, each step of the second embodiment of the report method according to the present invention will be described.

The server 300 may transmit the arrangement information including the identification information of the arrangement target (S210).

The server 300 may transmit the arrangement information to the external device. Such arrangement information may include identification information of the arrangement. The external device may include at least one of the black box 100 and the navigation 200. The server 300 does not necessarily need to transmit arrangement information directly to the black box 100 and the navigation 200, but may also transmit arrangement information by relaying other external devices.

The server 300 may transmit the arrangement information according to a predetermined condition.

For example, the server 300 may transmit arrangement information to an external device located in a certain region. In more detail, the server 300 may transmit arrangement information to an external device located in an arrangement area for arrangement.

Alternatively, the server 300 may transmit the arrangement information, the external device may first receive information about the arrangement area included in the arrangement information, and may receive the remaining arrangement information when the current location corresponds to the arrangement area.

Alternatively, the server 300 transmits wanted information including information about a wanted area, and at least one of the black box 100 and the navigation 200 which has received the wanted information activates a part of the wanted information according to a current position, and partially Can be deactivated. For example, as shown in FIG. 14, the black box 100 receives and stores arrangement information for the Seoul Gyeonggi area D1 and Busan Gyeongnam area D2, and when located in the Seoul Gyeonggi area, Wanted information can be activated. When the black box 100 moves and is located in the Busan Gyeongnam area, the black box 100 may deactivate the arrangement information for the Seoul Gyeonggi area and activate the arrangement information for the Busan Gyeongnam area.

The server 300 may receive such arrangement information from a related organization, for example, a police officer or a lost child. Alternatively, the server 300 may be installed in such a related institution and receive the arrangement information directly from a member of the related organization. When new arrangement information is obtained or arrangement information is modified, the server 300 may transmit newly acquired arrangement information or modified arrangement information to an external device.

The server 300 may receive the report information including the identification information of the report target (S220),

The server 300 may receive the report information from an external device. Such reporting information may include identification information of the reporting target. Here, the report target may include an object included in an image captured by the camera 120 in the first embodiment of the report method according to the present invention. The external device is a telephone, a mobile communication terminal, a personal digital assistance (PDA), a personal computer (PC), the Internet and various devices capable of reporting by performing the above-described black box 100, navigation 200 and other communication functions. It may include one of the.

As described above, the report information may include at least one of identification information of an object, at least a part of the captured image, and an identification image.

The server 300 may determine whether the reported object corresponds to a wanted item by comparing the reported information and the wanted information (S230).

The server 300 may determine whether the reported object is a wanted object by comparing the reported information and the wanted information. As described above, the black box 100 and the navigation 200 may perform a report when an object included in the captured image corresponds to an arrangement.

However, since the black box 100 or the navigation 200 may have a smaller computing power than the server 300, the accuracy of the black box 100 or the navigation 200 may be lower than that of the server 300 in determining whether an object included in the captured image is an arrangement. have. In addition, the arrangement information may be modified from time to time as described above, the black box 100 and the navigation 200 may determine whether the arrangement target of the object based on the arrangement information before modification.

Therefore, there may be a case where the server 300 needs to compare the reported information with the wanted information and re-determine whether the reported object corresponds to the wanted item.

For example, when the reporting information is a vehicle number, the server 300 may determine whether the reported object is a wanted arrangement according to whether the vehicle number is included in the wanted vehicle number. If the vehicle number reported from the wanted item is deleted, the server 300 may be determined not to be wanted. On the contrary, a record in which the reported information is previously received from another external device located in the vicinity of the external device which has sent such a report. If there is, the server 300 may determine whether the object to be arranged of the reported object with reference to other information.

For example, when the server 300 receives at least a part of the captured image or the identification image as the report information, at least a part of the captured image or the identification image is analyzed to obtain identification information of the object, and the acquired object, That is, it is possible to determine whether or not the object is wanted on the basis of the identification information and the wanted information of the report target.

In the first embodiment of the reporting method according to the present invention, a method of determining whether an object is arranged by the server 300 according to the image or the identification image is basically an image and an image captured by the black box 100. It may be similar to a method of determining whether an object is wanted based on an image or the like. In this case, the server 300 generally has a more powerful computational power compared to the black box 100 or the navigation 200 and uses an improved image recognition software, so that a more accurate judgment can be made.

The server 300 may provide the report information when the reported object corresponds to the wanted item (S240).

The server 300 may transmit the report information to the related organization when the reported object is determined to be wanted. Alternatively, when the server 300 is installed in a related organization, the server 300 may output the report information. As a result, the police or the group of missing children may be provided with the reporting information to find the wanted person.

When the reported object corresponds to a wanted item, the server 300 may select a reporter according to the report information as an award target (S250).

The server 300 may select a reward target when the object reported as a result of the determination made as described above is a wanted object. The reward may mean a person who is compensated for the report.

The report information may include information about the reporter. The server 300 may select the informant as a reward according to the informant. In detail, the server 300 may store information about the informant and manage information about the informant.

In addition, the report information may include information on the report time. The server 300 may select a reward target by further considering information on the reporting time. For example, the server 300 may receive a plurality of report information. In this case, the reporter based on the report information included in the report information may be selected as a reward.

The server 300 may provide various benefits to the selected awards. For example, a server 300 managed by a government agency or a related agency may grant tax benefits or pay a bounty or bounty to a prize. For another example, if the server 300 managed by a private company may provide electronic money or coupons for the prize. The server 300 may store information about a reward or a price in association with information about the informant selected as a reward.

As such, the server 300 may select the informant as a reward and transmit a message indicating that the informant has been selected as a reward. Such a message may be transmitted to the device that reported the information, such as the black box 100, the navigation 200, or other mobile communication terminal, a telephone, or an e-mail of a user. In this case, the address for transmitting may be included in the report information.

Meanwhile, the transmitted message may include information reflecting the content of the reward. Thus, by receiving such a message, the whistleblower will be informed about the rewards that the whistleblowing information will be received, selected as the reward recipient, and thus will be provided.

According to the second embodiment of the reporting method according to the present invention, the arrangement information is transmitted to an external device located in the region where the arrangement is expected, that is, the arrangement area, it is possible to search more accurately. In addition, when the information is received, the related agency may find an arrangement according to the information. In addition, by rewarding the whistleblower, there is an effect that can attract attention about the whistleblower.

The reporting method according to each embodiment of the present invention described above can be used individually or in combination with each other. In addition, the steps configuring each embodiment may be used separately or in combination with the steps configuring another embodiment.

In addition, the reporting method according to each embodiment of the present invention may be stored in a computer-readable recording medium in the form of a code or a program for performing the same.

The present invention described above is capable of various substitutions, modifications, and changes without departing from the spirit of the present invention for those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains. It is not limited by the drawings. In addition, the embodiments described in this document may not be limitedly applied, but may be configured by selectively combining all or part of the embodiments so that various modifications may be made.
