Abstract

A monitoring system in which a mounting device of a moving body and a monitoring center device are connected via a communication network, wherein the mounting device includes a photographing unit configured to photograph a passenger, and a feature transmission unit configured to transmit feature data of the passenger, and the monitoring center device includes a monitoring processing unit which determines whether the feature data is recorded in a database and performs monitoring processing on the basis of a result of the determination.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A monitoring system comprising a mounting device of a moving body and a monitoring center device connected to the mounting device via a communication network,
 wherein the mounting device includes   a photographing unit configured to photograph a passenger, and   a feature transmission unit configured to transmit feature data of the passenger, and   the monitoring center device includes a monitoring processing unit which determines whether the feature data is recorded in a database and performs monitoring processing on the basis of a result of the determination.   
     
     
         2 . The monitoring system according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the monitoring processing unit transmits a determination result to the mounting device on the basis of the result of the determination, and   the mounting device includes a start control unit which controls starting of a moving body on which the mounting device is mounted on the basis of the determination result.   
     
     
         3 . The monitoring system according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the monitoring center device includes a recording unit for recording the feature data.   
     
     
         4 . The monitoring system according to  claim 3 ,
 wherein the feature transmission unit transmits a time at which the feature data is extracted from an image generated by photographing the passenger and position information of the moving body together with the feature data to the monitoring center device, and   the recording unit records the feature data, the time, and the position information in correlation with each other.   
     
     
         5 . The monitoring system according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the monitoring processing unit of the monitoring center device determines whether or not there is an abnormality in the monitoring processing on the basis of the result of the determination, and   the monitoring center device further includes a notification unit which, when it is determined that there is the abnormality, notifies a predetermined transmission destination of the abnormality.   
     
     
         6 . A monitoring center device in a monitoring system in which a mounting device of a moving body including a photographing unit for photographing a passenger and a feature transmission unit for transmitting feature data of the passenger, and the monitoring center device are connected via a communication network, the monitoring center device comprising:
 a monitoring processing unit configured to determine whether the feature data is recorded in a database and perform monitoring processing on the basis of a result of the determination.   
     
     
         7 . A mounting device in a monitoring system in which the mounting device of a moving body and a monitoring center device are connected via a communication network, the mounting device comprising:
 a photographing unit configured to photograph a passenger;   a feature transmission unit configured to transmit feature data of the passenger to the monitoring center device; and   a start control unit configured to acquire, from the monitoring center device which performs monitoring processing on the basis of a result of determining whether the feature data is recorded in a database, a result of the determination and to control starting of a moving body on which the mounting device is mounted on the basis of the result of the determination.   
     
     
         8 . A monitoring method comprising:
 determining whether feature data is recorded in a database and performing monitoring processing on the basis of a result of the determination, by a monitoring center device in a monitoring system in which a mounting device of a moving body including a photographing unit for photographing a passenger and a feature transmission unit for transmitting feature data of the passenger, and the monitoring center device are connected via a communication network.   
     
     
         9 . A processing method comprising:
 photographing a passenger;   transmitting feature data of the passenger to a monitoring center device;   acquiring, from the monitoring center device performing monitoring processing on the basis of a result of determining whether the feature data is recorded in a database, the result of the determination; and   controlling starting of a moving body on which a mounting device is mounted on the basis of the result of the determination, by the mounting device in a monitoring system in which the mounting device of a moving body and the monitoring center device are connected via a communication network.   
     
     
         10 . A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a program which causes a computer to perform processes of a mounting device in a monitoring system in which the mounting device of a moving body and a monitoring center device are connected via a communication network, the processes comprising:
 photographing a passenger;   transmitting feature data of the passenger to the monitoring center device; and   acquiring, from the monitoring center device performing monitoring processing on the basis of a result of determining whether the feature data is recorded in a database, a result of the determination and controlling starting of a moving body on which the mounting device is mounted on the basis of the result of the determination.
