First Claim
1. An imaging system comprising:
- an imaging instruction issuing apparatus; and
one or more imaging apparatuses,wherein the imaging instruction issuing apparatus includesgeneration means for generating notification data including identification information unique to each imaging instruction issuing apparatus and an imaging request signal, andfirst communication means for transmitting and outputting the notification data to the one or more imaging apparatuses, andwherein each of the one or more imaging apparatuses includeimaging means for obtaining captured image data of a subject,saving means for saving the captured image data obtained by the imaging means,second communication means for receiving the notification data from the imaging instruction issuing apparatus, andcontrol means for causing the saving means to perform a saving process of saving the captured image data obtained by the imaging means and the identification information included in the notification data in an associated manner in a case where the notification data received by the second communication means includes the imaging request signal.

Abstract
An imaging system includes an imaging instruction issuing apparatus and one or more imaging apparatuses. The imaging instruction issuing apparatus includes a generation unit that generates notification data including identification information unique to each imaging instruction issuing apparatus and an imaging request signal, and a first communication unit that transmits and outputs the notification data to each imaging apparatus. Each imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit that obtains captured image data of a subject, a saving unit that saves the captured image data obtained by the imaging unit, a second communication unit that receives the notification data from the imaging instruction issuing apparatus, and a control unit that causes the saving unit to save the captured image data and the identification information included in the notification data in an associated manner in a case where the notification data received by the second communication unit includes the imaging request signal.
