A network editor comprises a central location with stored videos such as movies that can be edited by editors at remote locations. An editor receives a representation of a video and specifies edits relative to the representation, enabling the editor to use a device lacking sufficient processing capability to edit the video directly, and also reducing the volume of information transmitted between the central location and the remote editor. The central location is able to provide the edited movie in a format suitable to the display capabilities of the viewing device of the viewer requesting the edited video.

A method and device for communicating video for synchronization between a portable wearable camera and a wireless hub device are described. The portable wearable camera may capture first video data. Also, the portable wearable camera may transmit the first video data to the wireless hub device via a first wireless connection, and may capture second video data. When the first wireless connection between the wearable camera and the wireless hub device is unable to support full resolution video playback, the portable wearable camera may store the second video data. Further, the portable wearable camera may receive a request from the wireless hub device for the second video data via a second wireless connection, and may capture third video data. Further, the portable wearable camera may transmit, to the wireless hub device, the third video data via the first wireless connection and the second video data via the second wireless connection.

To enable routing control to be easily performed in a video system. Signal output equipment generates and outputs a digital signal for transmission in which the digital signal includes a video signal and a predetermined number of identification information groups related to the video signal. A routing unit outputs an inputted digital signal for transmission to a predetermined signal output unit on the basis of at least any identification information included in the predetermined number of identification information groups.

A control device (10) connectable to an imaging device (42) for controlling a control-target device includes an execution unit (11) that executes a control program to control the control-target device and outputs a first trigger signal when data (112) variable with execution of the control program satisfies a first condition, a receiver (63) that repeatedly receives image information indicating an image captured by the imaging device (42) and receives, from an environment detector including the imaging device (42) or a device (41) different from the imaging device, a second trigger signal indicating detection of environmental information including a result of detection performed by the environment detector satisfying a second condition, and a saver (66) that saves the image information received by the receiver (63) into a second storage (67) when receiving the first trigger signal from the execution unit (11) or receiving the second trigger signal with the receiver (63).

Provided is a lifelog providing system for providing a user with a lifelog of a child that enables the user to systematically recognize a level of growth of the child. The system is configured to detect a specific event related to a level of growth of the child in images captured by a camera, by using image recognition; extract a scene image including the detected specific event, from the images captured by the camera; and generate, as a lifelog, a growth map in which a thumbnail of the scene image is overlaid on a reference map image including a timeline of child growth and an indicator showing a normal pace of growth for each specific event, such that the thumbnail of the scene image is located at a point in the reference map image corresponding to date and time of the detection of the specific event.

An image capturing apparatus including a mounting part capable of attaching/detaching a device capable of at least storing a captured image, is provided. The image capturing apparatus obtains, if a device mounted in the mounting part has a function of executing image analysis processing for an image captured by the image capturing apparatus, first information representing image analysis processing executable by the device, and output information based on the obtained first information and second information representing image analysis processing executable by the image capturing apparatus.
