PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To timely issue an appropriate warning.SOLUTION: When both determination in a step S14 and a step S15 is NO, it is determined that a slave unit is outside a designated area, and a distance between the slave unit and a master unit is not near, safety of "a child" by the monitor of a "parent" cannot be secured. Therefore, warning is started (a step S16). However, as a result of a determination in a step S6, when the master unit is not present within the designated area, namely, when both of the master unit and the slave unit are outside the designated area, it is determined whether or not both machines are located close (e.g., within 1 m) to each other (a step S17). Even when both machines are outside the designated area, if both machines are located close to each other, the safety of the "child" by the monitor of the "parent" may be possible. Consequently, it is determined whether it is during warning or not (a step S18) and, when it is during the warning, the warning is made to stop (a step S19).
The present invention relates to an electronic device, a behavior monitoring program, and a behavior monitoring method for monitoring the behavior of a protection target person such as a “child” and notifying them as necessary.
Conventionally, there are a prior art 1 described in Patent Document 1 and a prior art 2 described in Patent Document 2 as techniques for monitoring and notifying the behavior of a person to be protected. Prior art 1 is composed of two slave units and one master unit. If a person with a handset (such as a “child”) leaves a person with another handset (such as a friend), it will not immediately generate a warning from the parent machine. Wait for the expected time to reach). When the predicted time has elapsed, it is determined whether or not the designated area (safe zone: home where the “parent” is) is entered, and if not, a warning is issued from the parent machine.
In Prior Art 2, when a person with a child machine (such as “child”) leaves the designated area (safe area for “child”), there is a person with a parent machine (such as “parent”) nearby. If there is not, a warning is given, and if there is a person with a parent machine nearby, the designated area ("child" safety zone) is switched to the designated area of the parent machine ("parent" safety zone) without warning. Note that the “designated area of the parent device” is registered in advance by manual operation.
International Publication WO2007 / 138816 JP 2005-267079 A
However, the prior art 1 does not immediately issue a warning from the parent machine when a person having a child machine (such as “child”) leaves a person (such as a friend) having another child machine. That is, after the “child” has become one person, the warning is not performed immediately, but the waiting time until the expected time when the child will return to the home is waited. Therefore, it can be said that it is intended for boys and girls who are able to act even by one person with a certain degree of separation, and for those who are not separated and who are dangerous to act alone, such as an infant Can not be.
Also, since you will be managed in time (expected time) after you break up with your friends, if you stop by a store near your home or talk with an acquaintance in the neighborhood, it will be safe Despite being there, a warning will be given.
In the prior art 2, since the “specified area of the parent device” is registered in advance by manual operation, if the “specified area of the parent device” is wide, the parent and child are separated from each other. Therefore, even if safety is impaired, there is a problem that no warning is given.
In addition, when leaving the designated area, the value (distance) that determines whether or not the two aircraft are close is also fixed, so both aircraft are a little safe even though they have good visibility and are sufficiently safe. A warning can be issued just by leaving.

It is explanatory drawing which shows the whole system which concerns on one embodiment of this invention. It is a block diagram which shows the circuit structure of a main | base station. It is a figure which shows an example of the floor plan memorize | stored in the floor plan memory | storage part. It is a block diagram which shows the circuit structure of a subunit | mobile_unit. It is a flowchart which shows the process sequence in this Embodiment. It is a flowchart following FIG. It is a figure which shows the designation | designated area when the process of step S32, step S34, and step S35 is performed.
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, the behavior monitoring system according to the present embodiment includes a parent device 1 carried by a “parent” and a child device 2 carried by a “child”. The master unit 1 and the slave unit 2 are wirelessly connected by proximity wireless communication such as Bluetooth (registered trademark), and GPS (which detects the current position of the own unit by communication with a plurality of low-orbit satellites 3) Global Positioning System) function.
FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a circuit configuration of the master unit. As shown in the figure, the base unit 1 includes a control unit 102, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 103, a map storage unit 104, a floor plan storage unit 105, a local device position detection unit 107, a communication unit, which are connected to each other via a bus 101. Unit 108, orientation detection unit 110, timer 111, and notification unit 112.
The control unit 102 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit), peripheral circuits of the CPU, a ROM (Read Only Memory) that stores programs and data in advance, and the RAM 103 is used as a working memory and the like. Control the behavior.
The map storage unit 104 stores map data. The map data includes general map data and detailed map data. The general map data is stored in advance by the manufacturer of the parent device 1, and is composed of, for example, layer 1 to 3 data. Layer 1 data is terrain data in map data, layer 2 data is road and route data in map data, and layer 3 data is landmark (marker, index) data in map data. Therefore, it is possible to recognize a map having these terrain, road, route, and landmark by superimposing and synthesizing these terrain data, road, route data, and landmark data. Detailed map data relates to data indicating an area where entry is difficult or impossible, or an object that can be an obstacle when the “parent” visually recognizes the “child” when it exists between the parent device 1 and the child device 2. Contains information. Here, the difficult and impossible to enter areas are private areas of others, areas that should not be entered, such as areas surrounded by fences and moats, and areas that cannot be entered.
In the floor plan storage unit 105, for example, a floor plan as shown in FIG. 3 is stored. This floor plan is a plan view of a home that is created and stored in advance by a “parent” or the like who carries the parent device 1 and stores names for each area such as “living room” and “balcony”. In addition, position information such as latitude and longitude is stored for each area to which each name is assigned. Therefore, the control unit 102 of the base unit 1 determines whether the current self-machine is currently on the floor plan based on the self-position detected by the self-machine position detection unit 107 and the floor plan stored in the floor plan storage unit 105. You can get what exists.
In the present embodiment, the floor plan is a two-dimensional plan view. However, the floor plan may be created using a three-dimensional solid view, a perspective view, or the like. However, if the floor plan is a plan view as in this embodiment, there is an advantage that the floor plan can be easily created.
The own device position detection unit 107 includes not only the GPS but also a plurality of position detection means such as communication with a telephone base station, IMES (Indoor MEssaging System), and place engine. Therefore, the own device position detection unit 107 can accurately detect not only the current position of the own device outside but also the current position indoors.
It should be noted that one position detecting means may be used as long as it can accurately detect the current position inside and outside the own device.
The communication unit 108 is a block that communicates with the child device 2 by the proximity wireless communication. The communication unit 108 receives information indicating the current position of the child device 2 detected by the own device position detection unit 207 of the child device 2 described later and transmitted from the communication unit 208 of the child device 2. Thereby, the main | base station 1 can acquire the present position of the subunit | mobile_unit 2 always.
The direction detection unit 110 not only detects the direction in which the base unit 1 is facing, but also based on the current position information of the slave unit 2 received by the communication unit 108, It has a function to detect whether it exists in the direction. The timer 111 measures the time required when performing processing according to a flowchart described later. The notification unit 112 includes means capable of notifying the “parent” by hearing or vision such as a buzzer or blinking light.
FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing a circuit configuration of the slave unit 2. As shown in the figure, this handset 2 includes a control unit 202, a RAM 203, a map storage unit 204, a floor plan storage unit 205, a local device position detection unit 207, and a communication unit 208 connected to each other via a bus 201. Yes. The control unit 202, the RAM 203, the map storage unit 204, and the floor plan storage unit 205 have the same configurations and functions as the control unit 102, RAM 103, map storage unit 104, and floor plan storage unit 105 in the master unit 1. The communication unit 208 is a block that communicates with the parent device 1 by the proximity wireless communication, and transmits information indicating the current position of the child device 2 detected by the own device position detection unit 207.
Next, the operation of the present embodiment will be described with reference to a series of flowcharts shown in FIGS. The control unit 102 of the base unit 1 starts processing based on a program stored in the ROM when the system is turned on, and first executes initialization processing (step S1). In this initialization process, the “living room” is automatically set as the designated area in the floor plan stored in the floor plan storage unit 105 shown in FIG. 3 or from the position of the base unit 1 detected by the own unit position detection unit 107. Automatically set within 1m radius as designated area. With this automatic setting, information indicating the designated area is stored in the RAM 103.
Further, the control unit 102 of the parent device 1 causes the communication unit 108 to receive the current position of the child device 2 detected by the own device position detection unit 207 of the child device 2 and transmitted from the communication unit 208. Then, it is determined whether or not the received current position of the slave unit 2 is within the designated area, that is, whether or not the “child” is in the designated area and is in a safe state (step S2). If the handset 2 exists in the designated area and the “child” is in a safe state, it is determined whether or not the handset 2 is in a warning state in which the notification unit 112 is operating (step S3). If the warning is not in progress, the process proceeds to step S5 without performing the process of step S4.
However, if the warning is in progress, the operation of the notification unit 112 is stopped to stop the warning (step S4). Therefore, even though the handset 2 exists in the designated area and the “child” is in a safe state, the warning is not continued, the unnecessary warning is avoided, and the appropriate warning in consideration of the situation is given. It can be carried out.
Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the designated area is a living room (step S5). If the designated area is a living room, the process returns to step S2, and if not, the process proceeds to step S20.
On the other hand, if the result of determination in step S2 is that the handset 2 is not present in the designated area, it is determined whether or not the parent device 1 is present in the designated area (step S6). As a result of the determination in step S6, if the parent device 1 exists in the designated area, that is, if the parent device 1 is in the designated area “inside” but the child device 2 is in the designated area “outside”, the map The positional relationship between the two machines is confirmed (detected) on the map stored in the storage unit 104 and the floor plan stored in the floor plan storage unit 105 (step S7).
Further, based on the result of this confirmation, it is determined whether there is an obstruction (eg, a wall or a corner) that becomes a blind spot between the two aircraft (step S8). If there is an obstacle that becomes a blind spot between the two aircraft as a result of this determination, the alarm unit 112 is operated to start a warning (step S16), and then the process returns to step S2. Therefore, when there is an obstacle between the two aircraft and the “parent” cannot visually recognize the movement of the “child”, a warning is given by the parent device 1 so that the “parent” immediately moves the “child”. Appropriate warnings prompting you to confirm.
However, if there is no obstruction that becomes a blind spot between the two machines, the movement of the master machine 1 is confirmed (step S9). That is, the control unit 102 operates the own device position detection unit 107 at a predetermined timing and sequentially stores the current position of the parent device 1 detected at each timing in the RAM 103. Then, by comparing the previous current position detected last time stored in the RAM 103 with the current current position detected this time, it is possible to detect the presence / absence and direction of movement of the main unit 1. Moreover, the moving speed of the main | base station 1 can also be calculated by using these last present position, this present position, and the time interval of these position detection. Therefore, the presence / absence, movement direction, and movement speed of the parent device 1 are detected or calculated as the movement of the parent device 1 in step S9.
Next, based on the current positions of the master unit 1 and the slave unit 2 and the orientation of the master unit 1 detected by the orientation detection unit 110, both units are close (for example, within 2 to 3 m), and the master unit 1 Is determined to be directed toward the child device 2 (that is, whether the front side of the “parent” face or chest is directed toward the “child”) (step S10). If both units are close and the base unit 1 is facing the slave unit 2, the control unit 102 starts the timer 111 without performing the determination in step S11 (step S12).
However, if the two units are not close to each other or the main unit 1 is not facing the direction of the sub unit 2, the main unit 1 is determined based on the moving direction and moving speed of the main unit 1 obtained in step S9. It is determined whether or not the vehicle is moving in the direction of the child device 2 at a speed or higher (about the level of an adult running) (step S11). When the determination at step S11 is NO, that is, when both determinations at step S10 and step S11 are NO and at least one of the following negative conditions (1) and (2) and (3) are satisfied The warning is started (step S16).
(1) Both aircraft are not close.
(2) The master unit 1 is not facing the slave unit 2.
(3) The master unit 1 is not moving in the direction of the slave unit 2 at a predetermined speed or higher.
For example, when all of the above negative conditions (1) to (3) are satisfied, it can be assumed that the safety of the “child” cannot be ensured by monitoring the “parent”. Accordingly, when the safety of the “child” cannot be ensured by monitoring the “parent” in this way, a warning is started (step S16), and the “child” is then instructed to the “child”. ”Can be promoted. When the “parent” receiving this warning forms an appropriate monitoring state, the safety of the “child” is ensured.
If the determination in step S11 is YES and the parent device 1 is moving in the direction of the child device 2 at a predetermined speed or higher, the timer 111 is set in the same manner as in the case where the determination in step S10 is YES. Start (step S12). Then, it waits until 2 seconds have elapsed since the timer 111 was started (step S13). If 2 seconds have elapsed, it is determined whether or not the handset 2 is present in the designated area (step S14). ). If the handset 2 is within the designated area after 2 seconds (returns), proper monitoring is possible, and the “child” safety is ensured by monitoring the “parent”. Can be done. Therefore, the process returns to step S3 without starting the warning. As a result, a warning is not issued only when the “child” temporarily leaves the specified area (instantaneously), and an unnecessary and inappropriate warning can be avoided in advance.
If the handset 2 does not exist in the designated area, it is determined whether or not both handsets are close (for example, within 1 m) (step S15). Even if both aircraft are outside the designated area, the safety of the “child” can be ensured by monitoring the “parent” if both aircraft are in the vicinity. Therefore, the process returns to step S3 without starting the warning. As a result, if the “parent” notices and approaches the “child”, no warning is issued, and unnecessary and inappropriate warning can be avoided in advance.
However, if the determination in step S15 is NO, that is, if both the determinations in steps S14 and S15 are NO and the handset 2 is outside the designated area and the distance between the two is not close, The safety of “child” cannot be ensured by monitoring “”. Therefore, after the warning is started (step S16), the process returns to step S2. Therefore, the start of the warning in step S16 can prompt the “parent” to appropriately monitor the “child”, and the “parent” receiving this warning forms an appropriate monitoring state. The safety of the “child” can be ensured.
On the other hand, as a result of the determination in step S6, when the parent device 1 does not exist within the designated area, that is, when both the parent device 1 and the child device 2 are outside the designated area, both devices are close (for example, within 1 m). (Step S17). If both machines are out of the designated area and the distance between the two machines is not close, the processes after step S7 are executed.
However, even if both aircraft are outside the designated area, the safety of the “child” can be ensured by monitoring the “parent” if both aircraft are in the vicinity. Therefore, it is determined whether or not a warning is being made (step S18), and if a warning is being given, this is stopped (step S19). Therefore, if the handset 2 is not in the designated area, but the two hands are close and the "child" is in a safe state, the warning will not continue, unnecessary warning will be avoided, and the monitoring situation will be considered Appropriate warnings can be made.
Next, as in step S9 described above, the presence / absence, movement direction, and movement speed of the main unit 1 are determined based on the previous current position previously detected by the own position detection unit 107 and the current position detected this time. Detection (calculation) is performed to confirm the movement of the parent device 1 (step S20). Further, based on the confirmed movement of the base unit 1, it is determined whether or not the base unit 1 is moving (step S21). If the base unit 1 is moving, the process proceeds to step S31 in FIG.
If it is not moving but is stopped, it is determined whether or not the current position of the base unit 1 is outside the home garden, park, sea, zoo, road, or the like (step S22). If it is not at home but indoors such as at home, restaurant, game center, boutique, beauty salon, etc., it is determined whether or not it is at home (step S23). In the case of being at home, the “living room” treated as the safest area at home in the present embodiment is designated as the designated area (step S24), and the process returns to step S2.
That is, even if it is not within the designated area initially set in step S1 treated as the safest area at home (steps S2, S6; NO), both aircraft are close (step S17; YES) and are indoors ( If it is at home (step S22; NO) and it is at home (step S23; YES), the safety of the “child” is ensured even if it is outside the designated area. Moreover, since the base unit 1 is not moving but stopped (step S21; NO), it is strongly estimated that the “parent” can reliably monitor or monitor the “child”. Therefore, the designated area “living room” initially set in step S1 is continuously set and maintained (step S24).
Further, even if both aircraft are not within the designated area initially set in step S1 (steps S2, S6; NO), if both aircraft are close (step S17; YES) and indoors (step S22; NO), Even if it is not at home (step S23; NO), the “parent” appropriately monitors the “child” by setting the designated area so that it can move around to some extent while limiting to the inside of the store or facility. be able to. Therefore, here, by setting the designated area within 5 m of the base unit 1 (step S25), the degree of freedom of the “child” is increased while maintaining an appropriate monitoring state.
If the result of determination in step S22 is that base unit 1 is outdoors, the current position of base unit 1 detected by own unit position detection unit 107 and the map stored in the map data storage unit Based on the data, it is determined whether or not the current position of the base unit 1 is a place intended to play a “child” such as a leisure place such as a garden or a park (step S26). In this determination, a place where the “child” is to be played is stored in advance in the ROM, and if it corresponds to the stored place, the determination in step S26 is YES. You can do it.
As a result of the determination in step S26, if the base unit 1 is a place for the purpose of playing “child”, it is determined whether or not the place is small (step S28). When determining whether or not it is a small scale in step S28, an area serving as a threshold value is stored in the ROM, and if it is equal to or smaller than this area, it may be determined that the scale is small.
Then, if the place for the purpose of playing the “child” is small, the setting is changed to the designated area in the site (step S29). In other words, if the place where the “child” is to play is small, it is estimated that the “parent” can appropriately monitor the “child” even if the entire site is designated as the designated area. . Therefore, by changing the setting of the site to the designated area, the degree of freedom of the “child” can be increased while maintaining an appropriate monitoring state.
Further, as a result of the determination in step S28, if the place for the purpose of playing the “child” is not small, the setting within 10 m of the main unit 1 is changed to the designated area (step S30). In other words, even if the place where the “child” is to play is not small but large, the “parent” should appropriately monitor the “child” within 10 meters from the “parent”. It is estimated that Therefore, by changing the setting of the designated area within 10 m of the parent device 1, the degree of freedom of the “child” can be increased while maintaining an appropriate monitoring state.
However, as a result of the determination in step S26, if the current position of the main unit 1 is not a place intended to play a “child” such as a road, the designated area is set within 2 m of the main unit 1 (Step S27). In other words, when the base unit 1 is outdoors, if it is a place where the purpose is to play a “child” and a place where safety is secured, 10 m of the base unit 1 or the base unit 1 If the inside is designated as a designated area, but it is not a place that is intended to play "child" and is not a place where safety is ensured, a designated area within 2 m of the main unit 1 is designated. . Thereby, it is possible to form a monitoring state where safety is given the highest priority by reducing the degree of freedom of the “child”.
If the result of determination in step S21 is that the base unit 1 is moving, the control unit 102 advances the processing from step S21 to the flowchart of FIG. 6, and the movement direction and base unit 1 described in step S9. Based on the current position of the child device 2, the child device 2 determines whether or not the child device 2 exists in front of the parent device 1 (step S31). When the slave unit 2 is present in front of the master unit 1, an arc that is within six times the distance that the master unit 1 moves in one second and that is 45 degrees forward and left in the moving direction (90 degrees in total) The setting is changed to the designated area (step S32).
That is, for example, the control unit 102 operates the own device position detection unit 107 every second to detect the own device position and stores it in the RAM. Therefore, it is possible to detect the moving distance for the latest one second, and it is also possible to detect the average second speed after the base unit 1 performs the initialization process. For example, if the distance traveled by the main unit 1 per second is 1.2 m, an arc of 90 degrees in total, 45 degrees to the left and right of the moving direction, is within 7.2 m (radius). Make it a designated area.
If the handset 2 is not in front of the base unit 1, it is determined whether the handset 2 is behind the base unit 1 (step S33). If both the determinations in step S33 and step S31 are NO, the handset 2 is not in front of or behind the base unit 1 but on the side of the base unit 1. In this case, the control unit 102 changes the setting of an arc that is within three times the distance that the master unit 1 moves in one second and that is 75 degrees lateral (only on the side where the slave unit 2 is located) to the designated area. (Step S34). Therefore, if the distance traveled by the main unit 1 per second is 1.2 m, specify an arc of 75 degrees on either the left or right of the moving direction within 3.6 m (radius), which is three times that distance. Make it an area.
Further, when the slave unit 2 is behind the master unit 1, it is within twice the distance that the master unit 1 moves in one second, and the arc is 60 degrees in the moving direction left and right (120 degrees in total). Is changed to the designated area (step S35). Therefore, if the distance traveled by the main unit 1 per second is 1.2 m, it is within 2.4 m (radius), which is twice that, and a total of 120 arcs at 60 degrees to the left and right in the direction of movement. To the designated area.
Therefore, when the processes of step S32, step S34, and step S35 described above are executed, the moving distance per second is 1.2 m and the handset 2 is in front of the base unit 1, as shown in FIG. In other words, when the “child” is walking in front of the “parent”, an area A having a radius of 7.2 m and a 90-degree arc is set as the designated area.
Further, when the child device 2 is located on the side of the parent device 1, that is, when the “child” is walking on the side of the “parent”, the region is an arc having a radius of 3.6 m and a circular arc of 75 degrees. One of B and C is set as the designated area. When the slave unit 2 is behind the master unit 1, that is, when the “slave” is walking behind the “parent”, a region D that is a circular arc with a radius of 2.4 m and a 120-degree arc is designated. Set as
Comparing the areas of these illustrated regions A, B, C, and D, there is a relationship of A> B = C> D. That is, when the “child” is in front, the “parent” can easily monitor the “child” and can sufficiently maintain safety, so the maximum area A during movement is set. In addition, when the “child” is on the side, the “parent” is somewhat difficult to monitor the “child”, and the safety cannot be sufficiently maintained, so the middle region B or C at the time of movement is set. Furthermore, when the “child” is behind, it is difficult for the “parent” to constantly monitor the “child”, and safety cannot be maintained, so the minimum area D is set during movement.
Therefore, it is possible to appropriately set a designated area having a range corresponding to the safety resulting from the positional relationship between the “parent” and the “child” at the time of movement, and to perform an appropriate warning.
Thereafter, it is determined whether or not a detailed map is possessed, that is, whether or not detailed map data is stored in the map storage unit 104 of the parent device 1 (step S36). If not, the process from step S2 in the flowchart of FIG. 5 is repeated without performing the process of step S37. If a detailed map is possessed, an area that is difficult or impossible to enter is excluded from the designated area (step S37).
Here, the inaccessible area is a private land of another person or a place surrounded by fences or fences outdoors, and a room that is always locked indoors (including home). Therefore, it is possible to prevent the area that is difficult or impossible to enter from being included in the designated area that is the free area of the “child”, and the minimum necessary area where the “child” can actually act freely is designated as the designated area. can do.
In addition, as described above, when safety cannot be ensured due to the positional relationship between the “parent” and “child”, an immediate warning is given, so that one person acts like an infant. It is also possible to target persons who are at risk.
In addition, the mobile phone may be used as the base unit 1 as shown in FIG. 1 by incorporating the functions of the base unit 1 described above into the mobile phone. Moreover, as shown in the figure, the handset 2 is preferably a pendant type that is carried around the neck of the “child”.
Further, in the embodiment, the monitor is “parent” and the monitored person (protection target) is “child”. However, the present invention is not limited to this. Needless to say, the present invention can be applied.
In the embodiment, the designated area is treated as a safety zone. Conversely, the designated area may be treated as a danger zone, and the relationship between the start and stop of the warning may be reversed.
In the embodiment, the designated area is always one closed space, but a plurality of independent closed spaces may be designated as the designated area at the same time.
Further, instead of using the closed space as the designated area, an area other than the closed space may be handled as the designated area.
The processing operation shown in the flowchart is performed by the parent device, but the parent device and the child device may be handled as terminals connected to the network, and the processing operation of the flowchart may be managed by the network server. Further, the distances such as 1 m, 2 m, and 10 m, the angles such as 90 degrees and 120 degrees, and the time such as 2 seconds shown in the flowchart are merely examples, and appropriate values can be used.
