NETWORK CAMERA, NETWORK CAMERA CONTROL TERMINAL, AND VIDEO RECORDING/DELIVERING SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A network camera that is connected with a data recording device and a network camera control terminal via a network, including:
- a storage unit; and
an operation processing unit,wherein the operation processing unit receives a delivery request for video data transmitted from the network camera control terminal using a first protocol via the network using the first protocol, andthe operation processing unit delivers live video data that is being currently projected and temporarily recorded in the storage unit or video data that is acquired from the data recording device using a second protocol and temporarily recorded in the storage unit to the network camera control terminal via the network using the first protocol in response to the delivery request for the video data.

Abstract
One of the constituent devices of a video recording/delivering system can be replaced with a generic IT device, without impairing functions which are implemented by the entire video recording/delivering system by using a dedicated protocol specialized for the video recording/delivering system among the devices which constitute the video recording/delivering system, thereby reducing the cost of the video recording/delivering system. Each network camera receives a video data delivery request, which is transmitted from a network camera control terminal by using a dedicated protocol specialized for a video recording/delivering system, by using the dedicated protocol specialized for the video recording/delivering system and delivers, in response to the video data delivery request, currently captured live video data, or video data which are obtained from a storage device by using a general-purpose protocol, to the network camera control terminal by using the dedicated protocol specialized for the video recording/delivering system.
