Description

Information processing system, information processing method, and program product Technical Field The invention relates to an information processing system, an information processing method, and a program product. Background Japanese patent application laid-open No. 2002-142214 discloses an image monitoring system capable of protecting the privacy of a person by specifying a person part in an image obtained by capturing a person to be monitored, synthesizing an image obtained by abstracting the specified person part with an original image, and transmitting the synthesized image. In japanese patent application laid-open No. 2023-006192, there is disclosed a position information system that protects privacy in normal times and displays information of all mobile terminals in emergency. Disclosure of Invention In recent years, network cameras have been used for detecting crowded conditions in eating houses, monitoring in unmanned settlement houses, detection of intruders for theft protection, detection of falls or accidents of people, and the like. Such a network camera is installed in a predetermined place, and is configured to transmit continuously photographed images to an external server. In recent years, there has been proposed an endpoint camera that performs image analysis by AI (ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: artificial intelligence) processing on the camera side and transmits image data excluding privacy information to an external device when an image of a person is included in a captured image. However, in such an endpoint camera, if privacy information in a captured image is always excluded and transmitted to the outside, there is a problem that the obtained information is insufficient and cannot be dealt with promptly when an abnormal situation such as a disaster or an accident occurs. However, in such an endpoint camera, if privacy information in a captured image is always transmitted to the outside without being excluded, there is a concern that the privacy information is leaked, and privacy protection of an individual cannot be sufficiently achieved. An object of the present invention is to provide an information processing system, an information processing method, and a program product that can achieve both protection of personal information and convenience in handling when an abnormal situation occurs, even when an image of a person is included in a captured image, when information extracted from an image continuously captured by a camera provided at a predetermined place is transmitted to the outside.
