A moving body tracking system includes: a selecting unit (138) that select a target camera from a plurality of cameras disposed in a monitored area; a moving body detecting device (120) that extracts features of a moving body detected in an image captured by the target camera; a comparing unit (139) that compares the extracted features with the features of a tracking target moving body, to identify the tracking target moving body; a tracking managing unit (140) that tracks the movement of the tracking target moving body in the monitored area based on the position of the target camera and the time at which the image including the moving body was captured; and an elevator information acquiring unit (137) that acquires elevator operation information indicating an operation status of an elevator from an elevator system. When the tracked moving object boards an elevator, a selecting unit (138) refers to the elevator operation information to specify a target floor that is a floor on which the tracking target moving body is likely to unboard the elevator and selects at least one camera disposed on the target floor out of the plurality of cameras as the target camera.

An information processing apparatus according to the present invention includes: a detecting unit configured to detect a proportion of an existing person for each predetermined region; and a calculating unit configured to, on a basis of the proportion of the person in each predetermined region, calculate a value based on an amount of activity of the person.

A system for monitoring the integrity of a plurality of ground conductors has a plurality of monitors, with a different monitor associated with each ground conductor. Each monitor includes a voltage sensor which monitors voltage on a closed circuit of the monitor. Upon the voltage sensor sensing an unexpected voltage, a transmitter of the monitor issues an “alarm” signal, which may be wireless (e.g., being sent using LoRaWAN protocol). The transmitter may issue other signals, including a periodic “heartbeat” signal to confirm continued operation of the monitor, and a “movement” signal to indicate movement of the monitor. The monitor may be GPS-enabled, in which case each signal may include the GPS coordinates of the monitor. The signals issued by the transmitter may ultimately be analyzed by an operator via a user interface platform, which may simultaneously display information regarding two or more of the plurality of monitors.
