1. A wearable camera for recording video data in cooperation with an in-car camera system mounted on a vehicle, the wearable camera comprising:
- a capture, which, in operation, captures videos;
a communicator, which, in operation, performs communication with an in-car camera system as a communication partner;
a recorder, which, in operation, records video data captured by the capture;
a storage, which, in operation includes first identification information; and
a storage, which, in operation, includes an operation mode of the wearable camera, the operation mode chosen from a car mode and an officer mode, wherein in the car mode, the first identification information and a second identification information are identification information of the vehicle and in the officer mode, the first identification information and the second identification information are identification information of a user who rides in the vehicle; and
a processor, which, in operation, determines the operation mode of the wearable camera by referring to the operation mode included in the storage that includes the operation mode,wherein, when the communicator establishes a communication link with the in-car camera system and receives the second identification information from the in-car camera system, and when the first identification information in the storage that includes the first identification information and the second identification information received from the in-car camera system match each other, the wearable camera cooperates with the in-car camera system to record the video data.

Abstract
A wearable camera system includes a wearable camera, an in-car recorder, and an in-car camera. One of the in-car recorder and the wearable camera transmits video recording starting information including information indicating that video recording has been started to the other of the in-car recorder and the wearable camera when one of the in-car recorder and the wearable camera starts the video recording. The other of the in-car recorder and the wearable camera starts video recording after the video recording starting information is received.
