本発明では、照明器具が正規の取り付け状態において、カメラ部に対する発光部の配置が、下方に向くカメラ部の中心軸線に対して、発光部の発光光がカメラ部のレンズへ侵入することが抑制又は制限される傾斜配置である。
このため、照明器具が道路に対して直交する交差状態に配置された正規の状態において、道路の長さ方向の照明が十分確保されると共に、発光部の発光光がカメラ部に侵入して画像が白化するような品質低下が生じることなく、照明器具下方領域の好ましい撮像画像を得ることができ、防犯灯として好ましい効果を得ることができる。
In the present invention, when the lighting fixture is properly installed, the arrangement of the light emitting part with respect to the camera part prevents light emitted from the light emitting part from entering the lens of the camera part with respect to the central axis of the camera part facing downward. or a restricted tilted arrangement.
For this reason, in the normal state where the lighting equipment is placed orthogonal to the road and intersecting, sufficient illumination is ensured along the length of the road, and the light emitted from the light emitting part enters the camera part to create an image. It is possible to obtain a preferable captured image of the lower region of the lighting equipment without degrading the quality such as whitening, and it is possible to obtain a preferable effect as a security light.

また、本発明では、器具本体の下側開口を覆う本体カバーが、前記下側開口に適合状態で器具本体に取り付けられ、後部にカメラ部が取り付けられ前部にサービス用開口を有する第1カバーと、前記サービス用開口を開閉するよう第1カバーに開閉可能に取り付けられた第2カバーを備える。
これにより、照明器具が正規の取り付け状態において、カメラ部は中心軸線が鉛直下方に向き、発光部及び透光性カバーは発光部の発光光のカメラ部のレンズへの侵入が抑制又は制限される斜め前上方に向けた傾斜配置とすることにより、道路の照明が十分確保されると共に、発光部の発光光がカメラ部に侵入して画像が白化するような品質低下が生じることなく、照明器具下方領域の好ましい撮像画像を得ることができ、防犯灯として好ましい効果を得ることができる。
そして、第2カバーを開くことにより、サービス用開口を通して器具本体内に収容した各部の点検や修理を容易に行えるものとなる。

As a result, when the lighting equipment is properly installed, the central axis of the camera section is oriented vertically downward, and the light emitting section and translucent cover suppress or restrict the light emitted from the light emitting section from entering the lens of the camera section. By slanting the lighting equipment toward the front and upward, it ensures sufficient illumination of the road and prevents the light emitted from the light emitting part from entering the camera part and causing quality deterioration such as whitening of the image. A preferable captured image of the lower region can be obtained, and a preferable effect as a security light can be obtained.
By opening the second cover, each part accommodated in the instrument body can be easily inspected and repaired through the service opening.

また、本発明では、画像データを記録する外部記憶媒体(SSD:solid state driveという)を前記サービス用開口から取り出し可能に器具本体に取り付けることにより、通常時には外部記憶媒体(SSD)を安全に保持できると共に、記録した画像データを利用するときには、外部記憶媒体(SSD)を容易に取り出すことができることとなる。 In addition, in the present invention, by attaching an external storage medium (SSD: solid state drive) for recording image data to the instrument body so that it can be taken out from the service opening, the external storage medium (SSD) can be safely held during normal times. In addition, when using the recorded image data, the external storage medium (SSD) can be easily removed.

また、本発明では、カメラ部で撮像した画像データを照明器具の下方近傍において操作される外部端末機器に取り出し可能な通信機能部とを備えることにより、画像データに基づき外部端末機器のディスプレイに表示される画像の視認確認にて、カメラ部のレンズの向きが所期の方向に向いているかを確認できる。
もし、レンズが所期の方向を向いていない場合は、透光性ドームカバーを本取り外し、外部端末機器のディスプレイを見ながらレンズの方向を調整できるため、正確な範囲の撮像ができることとなる。
In addition, the present invention includes a communication function section that can take out image data captured by the camera section to an external terminal device operated near the bottom of the lighting fixture, so that the image data is displayed on the display of the external terminal device based on the image data. You can check whether the lens of the camera unit is facing in the desired direction by visually checking the image.
If the lens is not facing the desired direction, the translucent dome cover can be removed and the lens direction can be adjusted while looking at the display of the external terminal device, allowing accurate imaging of the range.

A heat dissipation plate 9 is attached to the peripheral edge of the transmission window 22A with a screw via a spacer SP at a position above the transmission window 22A so as to be in a parallel state (substantially parallel state) to the transmission window 22A. The heat sink 9 has a flat plate shape that is long in the front and back direction and is large enough to cover the transparent window 22A, and by this attachment, the transparent window 22A is covered by the heat sink 9 from above. A light emitting section 6 elongated in the front-rear direction is attached to the lower surface of the heat sink 9.
The light emitting part 6 is a part that emits the light emitted by the illumination LED element (light emitting diode) 7 in a predetermined light distribution, and the LED element is provided on the lower surface of the rectangular flat LED mounting circuit board 5. This is a known configuration including a light distribution unit 8 which is disposed in a slightly protruding state downward and irradiates the light emitted from the LED element 7 downward in a predetermined light distribution.

Alternatively, a plurality of LED chips (bare chips) such as two LED chips (bare chips) connected in series may be connected in parallel and sealed with a yellow fluorescent agent-containing encapsulant. .

配光ユニット8は、電気絶縁性を有し透光性合成樹脂製で形成された平板状であり、回路基板5の下側面に密着状態で取り付けられ、LED素子7が放射する光を所定の配光にて出射する機能を有するために、平板状の板状部81には、各LED素子7に対応するよう板状部81から突出する配光部82を一体形成した公知の構成である。実施例の配光ユニット8は前後2枚で構成されるが、前後に長い1枚の矩形状であってもよい。

The light distribution unit 8 is a flat plate made of electrically insulating and translucent synthetic resin, and is attached to the lower surface of the circuit board 5 in close contact with the light emitted by the LED element 7. In order to have the function of emitting light in a distributed manner, the flat plate part 81 has a known configuration in which a light distribution part 82 protruding from the plate part 81 is integrally formed to correspond to each LED element 7. . Although the light distribution unit 8 of the embodiment is composed of two pieces at the front and the rear, it may have a single rectangular shape that is long from the front to the back.
The light distribution portion 82 constitutes a light distribution lens portion 82 that has a recessed portion that opens toward the circuit board 5 so that each LED element 7 is accommodated individually. The light distribution lens portion 82 has a curved shape that projects downward from the plate portion 81 at a predetermined curvature.

LED素子7の発光光が照明器具の左右方向へ長い配光をなすように、配光レンズ部82は、左右方向に長い半俵状・反円弧状等の形状をなす。これによって、LED素子7の発光光は、楕円形状・長円形状等の左右方向に長い配光特性をなす。

The light distribution lens portion 82 has a shape such as a semi-cylindrical shape or an anti-arc shape that is long in the left-right direction so that the light emitted from the LED element 7 is distributed long in the left-right direction of the lighting fixture. As a result, the light emitted from the LED element 7 has a light distribution characteristic that is long in the left and right direction, such as an elliptical shape or an oblong shape.
For this reason, as will be described later, when the lighting fixture 1 is in a normal state attached to a support or the like using the attachment part 10 so as to be arranged substantially perpendicular to the road extending in the left-right direction, the light distribution lens part 82 Accordingly, the light emitted from the LED element 7 has a light distribution characteristic in which the light distribution is mainly long in the left and right direction so that the light distribution in the front and back direction of the lighting fixture 1 is suppressed and the light distribution is directed in the longitudinal direction of the road. .

上記のように発光部6は、放熱板9の下側面に回路基板5がネジ止めされることにより、発光部6は透過窓22Aの若干上方に位置し、LED素子7の発光光が配光部82を通して透過窓22Aから下方へ照射されると共に、発光部6から後方へ向かう光の一部は透過窓22Aの後端縁によって遮られる。 As described above, the circuit board 5 is screwed to the lower surface of the heat sink 9, so that the light emitting part 6 is located slightly above the transmission window 22A, and the light emitted from the LED element 7 is distributed. The light is emitted downward from the transmission window 22A through the portion 82, and a portion of the light directed rearward from the light emitting portion 6 is blocked by the rear edge of the transmission window 22A.

また上記の状態で、LED素子7の発光熱は、回路基板5から放熱板9へ伝達され、器具本体2の内部空間4に放熱されて器具本体2から外方へ放散される経路と、回路基板5から放熱板9を通りスペーサSPを介して第2カバー222へ伝達されて、外方へ放散される経路にて放熱される。 In addition, in the above state, the emitted heat of the LED element 7 is transmitted from the circuit board 5 to the heat sink 9, is radiated into the internal space 4 of the appliance body 2, and is dissipated outward from the appliance body 2. The heat is transmitted from the substrate 5 through the heat sink 9 to the second cover 222 via the spacer SP, and is radiated along a path where it is radiated outward.

照明器具1が取り付け部10にて支柱等の支持体へ正規の取り付け状態において、カメラ部配置部225は略水平状態であり、第1カバー221の平板状の底板部22Tと第2カバー222の平板状の底板部22Sは、並行状態にて斜め前上方に向けた傾斜配置である。
照明器具1は、取り付け部10を支柱等の支持体へ正規の取り付け状態において、左右方向に延びる道路に対して平面視で略直行状態に交差する交差状態配置となる構成である。この状態で、図3に示すように、照明器具1は前部が後部よりも水平軸H1に対して所定角度θで以って前上がり状態となり、発光部6はLED発光素子7の発光光が配光部82によって左右方向に長い配光特性となるため、左右方向に長い道路面に沿って照射する配光となる。
When the lighting fixture 1 is properly attached to a support such as a column at the attachment part 10, the camera part arrangement part 225 is in a substantially horizontal state, and the flat bottom plate part 22T of the first cover 221 and the second cover 222 are connected to each other. The flat plate-shaped bottom plate portion 22S is arranged in a parallel state and inclined diagonally forward and upward.
The lighting fixture 1 has a configuration in which, when the mounting portion 10 is properly attached to a support such as a column, the lighting device 1 is arranged in an intersecting state in which the mounting portion 10 intersects a road extending in the left-right direction in a plan view substantially perpendicular to the road. In this state, as shown in FIG. 3, the front part of the lighting fixture 1 is raised forward at a predetermined angle θ with respect to the horizontal axis H1 relative to the rear part, and the light emitting unit 6 emits light emitted from the LED light emitting element 7. Since the light distribution section 82 has a light distribution characteristic that is long in the left-right direction, the light is distributed along a road surface that is long in the left-right direction.

この取り付け状態において、図3に示すように、カメラ部50は、カメラの中心軸線L1が下方に延びる鉛直線Sと一致する状態が期待する正規の取り付け状態であり、これを基準としている。換言すれば、レンズ53が真下に向いた状態のレンズ53の中心軸線L2がカメラの中心軸線L1である。
カメラの中心軸線L1が鉛直線Sと一致するように照明器具1が取り付けられる状態が好ましい。しかし、実際の取り付け状態は、カメラの中心軸線L1が下方に延びる鉛直線Sと若干ずれる場合もあるが、カメラの中心軸線L1が下方に延びる鉛直線Sと略一致する状態であれば問題なく、所期の目的が達成されるため本発明の技術思想の範囲内である。
In this installed state, as shown in FIG. 3, the camera unit 50 is in a normal installed state where the central axis L1 of the camera is aligned with the downwardly extending vertical line S, and this is the standard. In other words, the central axis L2 of the lens 53 with the lens 53 facing directly below is the central axis L1 of the camera.
It is preferable that the lighting fixture 1 is attached so that the central axis L1 of the camera coincides with the vertical line S. However, in the actual mounting condition, the central axis L1 of the camera may be slightly offset from the vertical line S extending downward, but there is no problem as long as the central axis L1 of the camera substantially coincides with the vertical line S extending downward. , since the intended purpose is achieved, it is within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention.

レンズ53は、その全周囲がレンズホルダ53Hに保持された構成であり、中心軸線L1に対して所定角度α1の範囲内で中心軸線L1の周り360度回転可能であり、照明器具1の下方領域の撮影が可能となる。レンズ53は、レンズホルダ53Hに保持された構成であるため、レンズ53自体の形態及びレンズホルダ53Hによる撮影範囲が制限され、レンズ53の中心軸線L2に対して所定角度α2の広がり範囲内で中心軸線L2の周り360度の範囲が撮影可能である。
このため、カメラの中心軸線L1が鉛直線Sと一致するように照明器具1が取り付けられた状態では、鉛直線Sの周り360度の範囲の最大撮影範囲は、鉛直線Sに対してα1+α2の範囲となる。
The lens 53 has a configuration in which its entire circumference is held by a lens holder 53H, and is rotatable 360 degrees around the central axis L1 within a predetermined angle α1 with respect to the central axis L1, and the lower area of the lighting fixture 1 It becomes possible to take pictures of Since the lens 53 is held by a lens holder 53H, the shape of the lens 53 itself and the photographing range by the lens holder 53H are limited, and the center is within a range of a predetermined angle α2 with respect to the central axis L2 of the lens 53. A range of 360 degrees around the axis L2 can be photographed.
Therefore, when the lighting fixture 1 is installed so that the central axis L1 of the camera coincides with the vertical line S, the maximum imaging range of 360 degrees around the vertical line S is α1 + α2 with respect to the vertical line S. range.

本発明は、下側が透光性カバー23で覆われ下方を照明する発光部6及び照明器具1の下方領域を撮影するカメラ部50が配置され、発光部6の後方にカメラ部50が配置され、発光部6は前後方向に所定の長さを有し主として左右方向に長く広がる配光特性を有し、カメラ部50は、レンズ53の向きが変更可能であり、照明器具1の正規の取り付け状態において、カメラ部50の中心軸線L1が直下方向に向き、発光部6は後方への発光光が抑制又は制限される前上がりの所定の傾斜配置である。
このため、支柱等の支持体へ照明器具1が正規の取り付け状態において、レンズ53の中心軸線L2が中心軸線L1または鉛直線Sに対して所定角度α1で以って照明器具1の前方方向へ向いた状態において、発光部6の発光光のうち透光性カバー23を通して直進又は屈折して後方へ向かう光がレンズ53に入射することにより、カメラ部50で取得する画像が白化するような画像の品質低下が生じない構成である。
このため、カメラ部50が、その中心軸線L1が直下方向に向く状態において、レンズ53が前方方向に向いた場合、発光部6及び透光性カバー23の配置が、発光部6の発光光のレンズ53への侵入が抑制又は制限される前上がりの所定の傾斜配置である。
In the present invention, a light emitting unit 6 whose lower side is covered with a translucent cover 23 and illuminates the lower part and a camera unit 50 that photographs the lower area of the lighting fixture 1 are arranged, and the camera unit 50 is arranged behind the light emitting unit 6. , the light emitting unit 6 has a predetermined length in the front-rear direction and has a light distribution characteristic that spreads out mainly in the left-right direction, and the camera unit 50 has a lens 53 that can change its direction, and can be attached to the lighting device 1 in a normal manner. In this state, the central axis L1 of the camera unit 50 is directed directly downward, and the light emitting unit 6 is arranged at a predetermined inclination toward the front so that the emitted light toward the rear is suppressed or limited.
Therefore, when the lighting fixture 1 is properly attached to a support such as a column, the central axis L2 of the lens 53 is directed toward the front of the lighting fixture 1 at a predetermined angle α1 with respect to the central axis L1 or the vertical line S. In the facing state, the light emitted from the light emitting unit 6 that goes straight or is refracted and goes backward through the transparent cover 23 enters the lens 53, so that the image obtained by the camera unit 50 becomes white. This is a configuration that does not cause any quality deterioration.
Therefore, when the lens 53 of the camera unit 50 faces forward while the central axis L1 thereof faces directly below, the arrangement of the light emitting unit 6 and the light-transmitting cover 23 is such that the light emitted from the light emitting unit 6 is This is a predetermined tilted arrangement in which entry into the lens 53 is suppressed or limited.

LED素子7の発光光のうち、レンズ53へ向かう光が遮断又は抑制される関係は、レンズ53が前方へ向く角度に対して、発光部6及び透光性カバー23が斜め前上方に向けた傾斜配置の角度θが大きければ大きい程、レンズ53へ向かう光が遮断又は抑制される効果が発揮できるが、照明器具1の本来の目的である道路等の所定領域を的確に照明する目的が達成できなくなるような傾斜配置とすることはできない。
このために一つの実施形態として、照明器具1は、左右方向に延びる道路に対して略直行状態の配置となるように、支柱等の支持体に取り付け部10で以って正規の所定の取り付け状態において、発光部6及び透光性カバー23は、前部が後部よりも所定角度θで前上がり状態となり、配光部82によって左右方向に長い配光特性をなすLED素子7の発光光は、左右方向に長い道路面に沿って照射する配光特性である。
Of the light emitted by the LED element 7, the light directed toward the lens 53 is blocked or suppressed when the light emitting section 6 and the transparent cover 23 are directed diagonally forward and upward relative to the angle at which the lens 53 is directed forward. The larger the angle θ of the inclined arrangement, the more effective the light heading toward the lens 53 is blocked or suppressed, but the original purpose of the lighting fixture 1, which is to accurately illuminate a predetermined area such as a road, is achieved. It cannot be arranged at an angle that makes it impossible to do so.
For this purpose, in one embodiment, the lighting device 1 is mounted on a support such as a pillar using the mounting portion 10 in a regular predetermined manner so that the lighting device 1 is arranged substantially perpendicular to the road extending in the left-right direction. In this state, the front part of the light emitting part 6 and the transparent cover 23 are raised forward at a predetermined angle θ relative to the rear part, and the light emitted from the LED element 7, which has a long light distribution characteristic in the left and right direction, is emitted by the light distribution part 82. , is a light distribution characteristic that irradiates along a long road surface in the left and right direction.

この場合、好ましい実施形態として、上記のように、LED素子7の発光光が配光部82を通して透過窓22Aから照射されるとき、後方に向かう発光光が透過窓22Aの後端縁によって遮られるように、発光部6が透過窓22Aよりも上方配置である。
その一つの実施例では、照明器具1が正規の取り付け状態において、最も好ましいのは、カメラの中心軸線L1が鉛直線Sと一致するように照明器具1が取り付けられた状態であり、その状態では、所定角度θは鋭角であり、略15度に構成している。また、中心軸線L1または鉛直線Sに対して所定角度α1は70度であり、所定角度α2は27.5度であるため、中心軸線L1または鉛直線Sを中心として92.5度で描かれる360度の範囲が撮影可能となり、この範囲で照明器具1の下方の道路を含む領域の画像を取得することができる構成である。
これによって、発光部6の発光光のうち透光性カバー23を透過してレンズ53へ侵入する光量を十分抑制でき、画像の品質低下をもたらすことを防止できることが実証されている。
In this case, as a preferred embodiment, when the emitted light of the LED element 7 passes through the light distribution section 82 and is irradiated from the transparent window 22A, the emitted light directed toward the rear is blocked by the rear edge of the transparent window 22A, as described above. As such, the light emitting section 6 is disposed above the transmission window 22A.
In one embodiment, when the lighting fixture 1 is in a normal installed state, the most preferable state is a state in which the lighting fixture 1 is installed so that the central axis L1 of the camera coincides with the vertical line S; , the predetermined angle θ is an acute angle and is approximately 15 degrees. Further, since the predetermined angle α1 is 70 degrees and the predetermined angle α2 is 27.5 degrees with respect to the central axis L1 or the vertical line S, the angle is drawn at 92.5 degrees with the central axis L1 or the vertical line S as the center. It is configured such that a 360-degree range can be photographed, and an image of an area including the road below the lighting fixture 1 can be acquired within this range.
It has been demonstrated that this makes it possible to sufficiently suppress the amount of light emitted from the light emitting section 6 that passes through the transparent cover 23 and enters the lens 53, thereby preventing deterioration in image quality.

このように、発光部6は前後方向に所定の長さを有し主として左右方向に長く広がる配光特性を有する構成であり、且つ、照明器具1が正規の取り付け状態(中心軸線L1が鉛直線Sと一致状態または略一致状態)におけるカメラ部50に対する発光部4及び透光性カバー23の配置が、下方に向くカメラ部50の中心軸線L1に対して、発光部6の発光光のレンズ53への侵入が抑制又は制限される斜め前上方に向けた傾斜配置である。
実施形態では、照明器具1が正規の取り付け状態(中心軸線L1が鉛直線Sと一致状態または略一致状態)において、カメラ部50の中心軸線L1が鉛直下方に向き、発光部6は放熱板9の下側面に回路基板5がネジ止めされた状態で透過窓22Aの若干上方に位置し、LED素子7の発光光が配光部82を通して透過窓22Aから照射されるとき、後方に向かう発光光が、透過窓22Aの後端縁によって遮られレンズ53へ向かう光が遮断又は抑制される。このため、発光部6の後方に遮光壁を特別に立てることも不要とすることができる。
In this way, the light emitting part 6 has a predetermined length in the front-rear direction and has a light distribution characteristic that spreads out mainly in the left-right direction. The arrangement of the light emitting unit 4 and the light-transmitting cover 23 with respect to the camera unit 50 in the matching state or substantially matching state with S is such that the lens 53 of the light emitted from the light emitting unit 6 This is an inclined arrangement that faces diagonally forward and upward, suppressing or restricting intrusion into the body.
In the embodiment, when the lighting fixture 1 is in a normal installed state (the central axis L1 is aligned or substantially aligned with the vertical line S), the central axis L1 of the camera section 50 is directed vertically downward, and the light emitting section 6 is attached to the heat sink 9. The circuit board 5 is screwed to the lower side of the board and is located slightly above the transmission window 22A, and when the emitted light of the LED element 7 is irradiated from the transmission window 22A through the light distribution part 82, the emitted light is directed backward. However, it is blocked by the rear edge of the transmission window 22A, and the light directed toward the lens 53 is blocked or suppressed. Therefore, it is not necessary to specially erect a light shielding wall behind the light emitting section 6.

また、カメラ部50の各回路や、発光部6に係る回路への12Vの直流電源となる電源回路95を有する。
発光部6に係る回路としては、発光部6のLED7の発光電力や、発光制御回路96への直流電源となる電源回路95を有する。発光制御回路96は、照明器具1の周囲の明るさを検知する照度センサ97の照度検知によって、夜間等のように暗くなった状態でLED7を発光させ、明るくなったときLED7を消灯させる作用をする。
照度センサ97は器具本体2の後壁を貫通する採光孔97Pに嵌合する採光材を通して照明器具1の周囲の照度を検出する。

The power supply circuit 95 is supplied with commercial power 94 through wiring that passes through a rubber sealing material that fits into a through hole 95P in the rear wall of the instrument body 2.
In addition, the electrical wiring inside the lighting fixture 1 is omitted in the figure.

カメラ部50の取り付けに関係なく発光部6は放熱板9と共に第2カバー222に取り付けられる構成であるため、第2カバー222に放熱板9と共に発光部6を組み立てることができ、組み立て作業がし易くなる。 Since the light emitting unit 6 is configured to be attached to the second cover 222 together with the heat sink 9 regardless of whether the camera unit 50 is attached, the light emitting unit 6 can be assembled to the second cover 222 together with the heat sink 9, making the assembly work easier. It becomes easier.

上記の実施形態では、本体カバー22が第1カバー221と第2カバー222の二つの部分で構成されているが、このように分割構成ではなく単一構成の本体カバー22とし、この単一の本体カバー22の平板状の下側面に、第2カバー222の場合と同様に透過窓22Aを形成し、透過窓22Aを透光性カバー23で覆い、左右方向に長い所定の配光特性が発揮できるように、この透過窓22Aの若干上方に透過窓22Aと並行状態に発光部6を配置し、LED素子7の発光光が配光部82を通して透過窓22Aから下方へ照射されると共に、発光部6から後方へ向かう光の一部が、第2カバー222の場合と同様に透過窓22Aの後端縁によって遮られる構成とすれば、本発明の目的が達成され、上記同様の効果を奏することができる。 In the above embodiment, the main body cover 22 is composed of two parts, the first cover 221 and the second cover 222.

防犯カメラ付き屋外用照明器具1が支柱等に設置された状態において、カメラ部50で撮影した画像が所定領域のものであるかの確認が必要である。このため、照明器具1の下方近傍において、スマートフォンやパーソナルコンピュータ等の所定のパスワードを持つ携帯型外部端末機100の操作により、無線通信にてアンテナ70及び出力部63の通信機能によって無線通信し、カメラ部50の画像データを外部端末機100に取り込み、外部端末機100の画面にて確認する。

When the outdoor lighting fixture 1 with a security camera is installed on a support or the like, it is necessary to confirm whether the image taken by the camera unit 50 is of a predetermined area. Therefore, near the bottom of the lighting fixture 1, by operating a portable external terminal 100 such as a smartphone or a personal computer having a predetermined password, wireless communication is performed using the communication function of the antenna 70 and the output unit 63. Image data from the camera section 50 is imported into the external terminal 100 and confirmed on the screen of the external terminal 100.
