Information processing apparatus and method, program, and recording medium
First Claim
1. An information processing apparatus for processing content data obtained from a plurality of capturing devices by capturing an object, the information processing apparatus comprising:
- a generating device configured to generate additional information of content data;
a controlling device configured to determine and link address information used for storing the content data based on additional information of the content data obtained from the plurality of the capturing devices that are grouped; and
a storing device configured to store the additional information in association with the content data according to the determined address information,wherein the additional information includes time information and position information about capturing performed by the grouped capturing devices, the time information of the grouped capturing devices matching each other, the information processing apparatus further comprises an identifying device configured to identify a relative positional relationship or a relative time relationship between the capturing devices corresponding to the content data based on the additional information, and the storing device stores the relative positional relationship or the relative time relationship between the capturing devices identified by the identifying device in association with the content data corresponding to the capturing devices.

Abstract
An information processing apparatus for processing content data obtained from a plurality of capturing devices by capturing an object includes a storing device, an obtaining device, and a searching device. The storing device stores additional information in association with the content data. The additional information includes address information for linking the content data obtained from the plurality of capturing devices that are grouped. The obtaining device obtains the additional information stored by the storing device. When content data corresponding to a specified capturing device in the plurality of capturing devices is read from the storing device, the searching device automatically searches for the content data to be linked to the read content data.
