Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a device used by a pedestrian such as a pedestrian or a driver who drives a vehicle.
It relates to a system for alerting a party or notifying a third party.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, means for alerting a third party when a pedestrian actually encounters an obstacle while traveling on a road include a security bell, a flashlight and a whistle. Recently, it has become possible to make a 110 call or the like using a mobile phone, and this is expected as an effective reporting means.

On the other hand, in the case of a vehicle, an inter-vehicle distance control system is given as a means for issuing a warning in advance when a driver or a passenger is likely to encounter an obstacle while traveling. The inter-vehicle distance control system follows a preceding vehicle while recognizing the environment around the own vehicle, and issues a warning when a collision is likely to occur or automatically decelerates.

[0004]

However, when a pedestrian is about to encounter an obstacle while traveling, there is almost no means for giving a warning in advance. Also, if you think of it as a means of easily reporting immediately after you actually have a disability,
Flashlights, whistles and mobile phones are not perfect. For example, there is a problem that a mobile phone may cause false information and lack credibility. Furthermore, after the report, there is still a problem regarding the responsiveness of the surrounding infrastructure, that is, police and emergency medical care.

[0005] In the case of a vehicle, an inter-vehicle distance control system can be given as a means for issuing a warning in advance, but there is a problem that it is difficult to detect when a partner is a pedestrian.

In addition, even if a pedestrian or a driver sees a vehicle with a high possibility of causing an accident, for example, a vehicle that runs out of control or runs in a dangerous manner by meandering, it is recognized by a third party. And there is no effective means to notify the parties.

On a pedestrian crossing where there is no traffic light or on a road where there is no pedestrian crossing, even if a pedestrian tries to cross the road, very few vehicles will notice the intention and slow down or stop.
For this reason, pedestrians have no choice but to intercept the break in the flow of the vehicle, which is extremely dangerous for children and the elderly.

Further, even if the means for solving the above-described problem is realized, it is difficult to spread the method to many people if the means is expensive.

The present invention has been made in consideration of the above-described problems, and has an object to determine that a pedestrian including a pedestrian and a driver has an accident or a high possibility of having an accident. It is an object of the present invention to provide a traffic fault notification system that can notify the passer-by or another passer-by when the state is determined.

It has a function to transfer data to a remote communication destination via a public network as needed. Further, in the present traffic infrastructure system, the risk determination unit 105 determines the risk of occurrence of a traffic obstacle related to the traffic infrastructure, and if it is determined that the risk is higher than a certain level, the alarm unit 108 is activated. In this case, a warning is issued to the traffic related to the traffic obstacle and the administrator of the traffic infrastructure.

[0034] The user information input unit 101 includes information on age, medical history,
This is a means for inputting information about the user such as the presence or absence of physical disability, and provides information to be used in the risk determination unit 105 described later.

The environment information input section 102 is a means for receiving input of various information relating to the environment around a pedestrian, and inputs the position, speed, road shape, and the like of pedestrians and vehicles. For example, it receives information transmitted by the short-range wireless communication from the self-state output unit 111 or the notification unit 109 of the traffic fault notification system carried by another passer-by. Further, it may be constituted by a GPS receiver for inputting the current position of the user.

Further, when the traffic obstruction notification system is for a vehicle, it may be configured such that rain, ambient brightness, and the like are obtained from wiper ON / OFF information and headlight ON / OFF information, respectively. The traffic information, the μ (mu) information on the road surface, and other traffic-related information may be transmitted from the traffic infrastructure by short-range wireless communication, and the environment information input unit 102 may receive the information. Further, a configuration may be adopted in which image information of a pedestrian or a vehicle surrounding the vehicle carrying the traffic obstruction notification system captured from an artificial satellite is received.

The intention display unit 103 is a means for receiving an input regarding the intention of the passerby regarding the action plan and notifying the intention to the surroundings. For example, when a pedestrian wants to cross a pedestrian crossing or encounters an obstacle. It is used for reporting when a vehicle is found or when a dangerous vehicle is found. Note that, at the time of actual information notification, the notification unit 109 and the self-state output unit 111
It is good also as composition which utilizes the function of.

The environment recognition unit 104 includes the environment information input unit 10
Based on the information taken in from step 2, the values of various determination factors used for determining the degree of risk are determined, thereby recognizing the environment around the pedestrian.

The risk determining unit 105 determines the risk to which the pedestrian is exposed by using the outputs from the user information input unit 101, the environment recognition unit 104, and the intention display unit 103.

The alarm unit 108 issues an alarm according to the result of the risk determination from the risk determination unit 105. Vehicle control section 107 outputs a control signal for controlling the drive mechanism of the vehicle according to the output from risk determination section 105.

The environment recording unit 106 includes the environment information input unit 10
2 and the output from the environment recognition unit 104 are recorded. The reporting unit 109 reports information and the like recorded by the environment recording unit 106 to nearby passers-by and a pre-registered reporting destination using short-range wireless communication. In addition, a report is sent to a distant report destination using a telephone line or the like using a transfer function provided in a traffic infrastructure or the like.

The self-state recognition unit 110 recognizes the state where the pedestrian is located. For example, the self-state recognition unit 110 detects its own current position from a GPS signal received through the environment information input unit 102, The moving speed and moving direction are recognized from the history of the position.

The self-state output unit 111 includes the self-state recognition unit 11

In addition, a configuration including the recognition result of the passer by the environment recognition unit 104 may be adopted. This information is fetched by the environment information input unit 102 of another passer, and is used for the passer to recognize the environment around him / her.

The information output from the self-state output unit 111 may be configured to output only its own current position and not output the speed information, since it is better that the communication amount is small. In addition, if necessary, it transmits its own ID information, age, physical disability, accident history, insurance grade, and the like. Also, if the environment recognizer 104 carried by the receiving passer can identify the transmitting passer from other passers based on the location, time, etc., the transmission of the ID is unnecessary. Can be. Also, if the time is configured to use the reception time, it is not necessary to include the time information in the transmission information.

FIG. 2 shows an example of a hardware configuration of the traffic fault notification system according to the present embodiment. That is, the system according to the present embodiment uses, for example, an input unit 21 including a button, a touch panel, a keyboard, and the like for accepting an input operation of a passerby (user), and information of another pass-failure notification system through short-range wireless communication.

6 and an output unit 25 for performing an alarm operation or outputting an image other than an image such as an alarm signal.

FIG. 3 shows an operation example of the pedestrian device A.
In the process of the present example, first, an input of an operation mode to be performed by the device is prompted (step 31), an alarm process (step 32) according to the selected or input operation mode, a user information input process (step 33), An intention display process (step 34) and a notification process (step 35) are executed. Each process will be described in detail below.

In this example, there will be described a case where there are four operation modes: an alarm mode, a user information input mode, an intention display mode, and a report mode. However, the operation modes which can be adopted in the traffic obstruction report system of the present invention are as follows. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a simplified device having only one operation mode or a device having other operation modes in addition to the following four modes may be used.

FIG. 4 shows a specific example of the operation in the alarm mode of the traffic fault notification system shown in FIG. In this example, a pedestrian 803, a car 801 on which a driver 802 rides,
In addition, it is assumed that each of the curve mirrors 804 installed as traffic infrastructure has a traffic obstruction notification system 901 according to the present invention.

The system 901 of the pedestrian 803 is composed of, for example, the pedestrian device A shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 1, it is assumed that the display unit that realizes the function of the alarm unit 108 can be carried like a wristwatch. Further, all of the pedestrian configuration A may be configured to be incorporated in the device 201, or may be configured to be carried by being divided into a plurality of modules.

System 901 mounted on automobile 801
Is configured by, for example, the vehicle device B of FIG. 1 described above, and realizes the function of the alarm unit 108 using a display unit such as the device 211. Further, a configuration may be employed in which a monitor provided in advance in the automobile 801 is used.

When an alarm is issued, a predetermined display symbol 20 is used so that the user can recognize the approaching danger.
By displaying 2, 213 on each display screen,
Notify the user which danger is imminent. Further, in the system 901 of the pedestrian 801, instead of using the display screen, as shown in FIG.
A configuration may be adopted in which a plurality of vibrators are arranged on the back surface side of 1 and a portion corresponding to a direction approaching the danger is vibrated to notify the danger. In FIG. 23, 2
01a, 201b, and 201c indicate the front, side, and back of the device 201, respectively.

In the wristwatch-type device 201, a method of designating a predetermined direction is not particularly limited in the present invention. For example, a direction in which a pedestrian 803 carrying the device 201 is traveling is defined as a front face. In a state where the watch is placed when the pedestrian 803 takes a posture of looking at the watch in the direction, the direction in which danger approaches may be specified.

In the example of FIG. 4, it is assumed that the pedestrian 803 travels north toward an intersection with poor visibility, and the car 801 travels west to enter the intersection. Pedestrian 803 system 901 and car 801 system 90
1 can communicate with each other by short-range wireless communication according to the present invention.

Therefore, the pedestrian 803 is
Even if it is not possible to visually confirm the presence of 1 due to an obstacle such as a fence, the alarm unit 108 of the device 201 vibrates the right front in accordance with the judgment that the danger is imminent, so that the danger from the right side It can recognize that an object is approaching.

On the other hand, the driver 802 of the automobile 801 can use the device 2 using a monitor or the like installed in the automobile 801.
A pedestrian 8 is displayed by a display screen 11 and a speaker (not shown).
It can be recognized from the display on the display screen and the warning sound that 01 is approaching from the left side in the traveling direction.
The display screen of the device 211 displays the symbol 2 of the pedestrian 803.
13 flashes. The symbol 212 is a symbol representing the own vehicle.

FIG. 5 shows a specific example of the operation in the notification processing mode of the traffic obstacle notification system 201 including the pedestrian device A shown in FIG.

In the main report processing mode, an infrastructure including a traffic obstruction report system near the passerby, for example, a curve mirror 302, a traffic light, a police 303 as a pre-registered report destination, and an emergency medical institution 30
6. Notify the insurance company 304, fire department 305, relatives 307, etc. that a failure has occurred via short-range wireless communication or a telephone line.

At the time of notification, the situation near the fault occurrence point before and after the fault is read from the environment recording unit 106 and notified by the traffic fault notification system 201 carried by the user. From the contents of the environment recording unit 106, the situation before and after the failure can be reproduced later. Further, by notifying similar information from other nearby passers-by, it is possible to improve the accuracy of reproduction. When notifying information that is not recorded in the environment recording unit 106, the notification is performed in the intention display processing mode. Further, the configuration may be such that the content of the report is changed according to the report destination. For example, a configuration may be adopted in which information about private such as the name of the reporter is included in the police, medical facilities, and relatives, but private information is not disclosed to other passers-by.

Further, in order that the receiver such as the police can determine that the report is not a false report, it is determined that the pass-behind alias system 201 is in the report processing mode by a pass-failure report system carried by another nearby passer-by. And to the traffic obstruction reporting system installed in the transportation infrastructure,
The information recorded by each of the traffic fault notification systems that have received the notification may be notified to the same notification destination.

FIG. 6 shows a specific example of the operation in the user information input processing mode of the traffic fault notification system 201 of the present embodiment.

In the present processing mode, for example, the card reader 205 is connected to the connection unit 391 of the traveling fault notification system 201, and the card 390 in which the personal information has been input is read by the card reader 205 for input. Alternatively, an input is made using the buttons 203 and 204 provided in the traffic fault notification system 201.

FIG. 7 shows a specific example of the operation of the traffic fault notification system 201 of the present embodiment in the intention display processing mode.

In this processing mode, the traffic fault notification system 2
By using a plurality of buttons provided on the 01, when it is necessary to cross the road, when it is in danger, or when it asks for help in the event of disability, it is for notifying that fact. .

For example, when indicating the intention to cross, the button 204a and the button 203 are pressed simultaneously. When reporting a dangerous vehicle, the user presses the button 204b and the button 203 simultaneously. In addition, when information such as a car number is also notified, a selectable numerical value is displayed on a screen, and means for selecting from the information or a voice recognition means are used. Enter the number and report.

The content of the intention display is changed by changing the combination of buttons to be pressed at the same time or by changing the time during which the buttons are pressed.

The environment recognition unit 104 and the risk determination unit 105 described in FIG. 1 will be described with reference to FIGS.

The environment recognizing unit 104 determines, for example, as shown in FIG. 8, the own ID determination factor value table 401, the other ID determination factor value tables 501a... 501b, the common determination factor value table 502, etc. A storage unit for storing a table indicating a criterion of a factor value, and table information and a user information input unit 101 and an environment information input unit 10
A determination factor determining unit that determines a determination factor value at that time by using information obtained from step 2.

The own ID judgment factor value table 401 shown in FIG. 8A includes judgment factors and numerical values corresponding thereto. 8B. Other ID determination factor value tables 501a... 501
b and the common judgment factor table 502 in FIG.
Similarly to the D determination factor table 401, the D determination factor table includes a determination factor and a numerical value corresponding thereto.

It should be noted that the types of the judgment factors and the form of the judgment factor value table used in the present invention are not limited to the examples described above, but are the judgment factors used when finally determining the degree of risk. If a judgment factor and a value that the judgment factor can take are set, another type of judgment factor or another form of judgment factor table may be used.

Among the above judgment factors, for example, the possibility of collision 601, the distance to the collision 602, the speed 603, the line of sight 604, and the risk 605 of the other ID are calculated as shown in FIG. The value of each determination factor is determined with reference to the above-described tables. That is, the possibility of collision 601 is determined based on whether or not the extension lines of the own ID and the other ID in the traveling direction overlap. The distance 602 to the collision is the distance from the intersection of the own ID and an extension of the traveling direction of the other ID to the own ID point. The speed 603 is obtained by dividing the distance between two times of another ID by the time difference. The line of sight 604 determines that there is a landmark (for example, a curved mirror) with a bad line of sight. The risk 605 of the other ID is calculated from the product of the own ID factor value and the product of the other ID factor value and the common factor value. Further, the state of the signal obtained from the traffic signal may be reflected in the degree of danger.

In the danger determination unit 105, the environment recognition unit 10
The risk is determined using the determination factor value determined in step 4.

In the present invention, the specific method of calculating the degree of danger is not particularly limited. For example, using the above-described judgment factor values, there is a possibility that any obstacle may occur for the relevant passerby. If there is a possibility, it is only necessary to determine the degree of danger so that an alarm is generated.
For example, the product of all the judgment factor values is calculated, and if the calculation result is a certain value or more, an alarm is generated as a high risk, or a configuration such as “possibility of collision” and “outlook” is used. If a specific judgment factor value is equal to or more than a certain value, an alarm may be generated regardless of other judgment factor values.

As a method of specifying the ID, a method of adding a user's own ID may be used. For privacy protection, the transmission time and the position information at that time are transmitted without adding ID information. A passer may be specified based on the information received on the receiving side and the past information. When transmitting with an ID added, an ID that does not overlap with surrounding IDs may be set and transmitted. In this case, it is necessary to change when there are no passers or recipients around, or to notify other passers of the change.

FIG. 10 shows a specific example of the environment recording unit 106 shown in FIG. An information recording table 701 is stored in the environment recording unit 106. Information record table 7
01 is input through the environment information input unit 102,
It consists of time information, ID information, position information, and the like sent from other passers near the passer, and records the position information of surrounding passers.

When the traffic obstruction notification system according to the present invention is mounted on a traffic infrastructure such as the curve mirror 302, the environment recording unit 106 is constituted by a ring buffer 702, and constantly records the received information. . When a failure occurs, information of a predetermined time recorded before and after the failure is stored in a buffer area 70 different from the ring buffer 702.
Save to 3 etc. to prevent overwriting.

In the case where the traffic obstacle notification system according to the present invention is the pedestrian unit A201, the environment recording unit 106 is constituted by the ring buffer 704. If a failure occurs, the recording is stopped there. Prevents previous and subsequent records from being overwritten. Furthermore, the pedestrian device A
At 201, the recorded contents at that time are transferred to the environment recording unit 106 and the like of the traffic fault notification system of the present invention installed on the curve mirror 302 and the like.

A series of operation examples in the alarm processing mode of the traffic obstruction notification system according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 11 and 12 show situations at intersections with poor visibility.

In FIG. 11, a pedestrian 803 and a vehicle 80
1. Each of the curved mirrors 804 includes a traffic fault notification system 901 according to the present invention. Pedestrian 803 is traveling north, but vehicle 801 traveling west is approaching. If the information radio wave from the vehicle 801 does not reach the wall, the pedestrian 803 is notified via the curved mirror 804. In this situation, each traffic fault notification system 9
01 indicates that there is a possibility that the pedestrian 803 and the vehicle 801 will collide with each other, and it is determined that the visibility is poor because the information radio wave does not directly reach, and as a result, the risk is high. Vehicle 80
The warning of 1 and the pedestrian 803 starts sounding before the collision prediction time, for example, 3 seconds before. Further, the device 201 that implements the alarm unit 108 of the traffic obstruction notification system 901 carried by the pedestrian 803 notifies the user of the approach of a dangerous object from the front right by vibration 202.

FIG. 12 shows a situation when the vehicle 801 is directly seen from the pedestrian 803 in the situation of FIG. Here, since the vehicle 801 can be directly confirmed, the visibility is determined to be good, and the alarm from the device 201 stops. This is determined by the fact that the information radio wave from the vehicle 801 can be directly received by the traffic obstruction notification system 901 carried by the pedestrian 803. Further, although the vehicle 815 is approaching from behind, there is no possibility of collision, so that it is not determined to be dangerous and no alarm is issued. Of course, the configuration may be such that the risk factor determination factor value is set so that it is determined that there is danger when the vehicle is approaching from behind.

402), a signal corresponding to the recognition result is generated (step 3403). A signal indicating the generated stone display content is transmitted via short-range wireless communication or the like (step 3405).

FIG. 17 shows a vehicle control process performed by the vehicle control unit 107 of the traffic obstruction notification system 901 mounted on the vehicle on which the pedestrian displays the intention to cross the road and receives the signal indicating the intention to cross the road. An example is shown below.

In this process, first, a stop position at which the vehicle is assumed to stop is calculated (step 1701), and a deceleration required for stopping is calculated based on the calculation result (step 17).
03). Further, the inter-vehicle distance with the following vehicle is obtained (step 1705), and it is determined whether or not the possibility of the rear vehicle colliding when the deceleration calculated in step 1703 is performed is low (step 1707). If it is determined that there is a high possibility of a rear-end collision (No in step 1707), no deceleration is performed.

On the other hand, if it is determined that the possibility of a rear-end collision is low (Yes in step 1707), the inter-vehicle distance with the preceding vehicle is determined (step 1709), and the distance between the vehicle and the preceding vehicle is smaller than the inter-vehicle distance with the preceding vehicle. When it is determined that the inter-vehicle distance is short (Yes in step 1711), the vehicle is decelerated and stopped according to the deceleration calculated above (step 1).

The configuration of the present invention may be a configuration that uses only some of the functions of the configuration shown in FIG. For example, a device for carrying a function related to the above-described intention display processing is provided in a device carried by a pedestrian, a vehicle receives a signal indicating intention of crossing from a pedestrian or the like on a vehicle side, and a vehicle corresponding to the content of the received signal. The control processing or an alarm processing for notifying the driver that there is a pedestrian trying to cross may be performed. Also, for example, a configuration is provided in which a function relating to environmental records is provided to a traffic infrastructure or a pedestrian, and when a failure occurs, environmental information recorded at a time before and after the trouble is reported to a predetermined report destination such as a police. good.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, a warning is issued in advance when a pedestrian is likely to meet an obstacle while traveling, so that a traffic accident can be prevented. In addition, we can easily report immediately after having actually had obstacle,
Prevent crimes and take immediate measures after an accident. In addition, the reliability of the notification can be improved.

On the other hand, when the system according to the present embodiment is mounted on a vehicle, it is easy for a driver or a passenger to detect when the driver or a passenger is likely to meet an obstacle while traveling, even if the opponent is a pedestrian.

Further, according to the present embodiment, for a vehicle that runs out of control or runs in a dangerous manner by meandering or meandering, it is reported to a third party or a party by a passerby reporting each other. it can. In addition, when a pedestrian crosses a road, on a pedestrian crossing without a traffic light or on a road without a pedestrian crossing, it is possible to inform the vehicle of the intention to cross, and the vehicle can be stopped by controlling the vehicle, Can be safely crossed by children and the elderly.

Further, the system of this embodiment can be realized at low cost by adapting to the same system for passers-by and infrastructure. Furthermore, if only the self-state transmission function according to the present invention is provided, it is possible to inform the third party of his / her own existence, so that there is an effect of preventing a failure at low cost.

Further, according to the present embodiment, when providing information to other passers-by, instead of transmitting the user's own ID, an ID different from that of a nearby passer- er is transmitted or the ID is transmitted. However, by discriminating from other passers-by based on information such as the position of the transmission time, privacy can be protected.

Further, by notifying the information recorded in the recording device for a specific time before and after the failure, the movement of the disabled person, the movement of other passers-by, the signal state of the traffic light, etc. at the time of the failure. This has the effect of reproducing the situation.

Another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

As shown in FIG. 18, for example, the traffic fault notification system of this embodiment connects a mobile phone 1001 as a mobile data communication terminal and a module 1002 having integrated image, voice and navigation functions by a cable or the like. This is to detect images, sounds, and the like around the road where the user travels in a pocket while walking.

According to the system of this embodiment, for example,
When a pedestrian carrying the device receives an impact G of a predetermined level or more, or presses a fault occurrence button provided in the module 1002 when it determines that a fault has occurred, the pedestrian enters a predetermined notification process. enter. In this reporting process, the communication operation of the mobile phone 1001 is controlled so that a text mail and a notification by the mobile phone 1001 can be automatically sent to the 110th or the like unless supplementary information is input by the user. In addition, the operation is continued so that the mobile phone of the family is automatically connected.

FIG. 19 shows the hardware and software configuration of the traffic fault notification system according to this embodiment. The system of the present embodiment includes, for example, a mobile phone 1001 and a module 1002 as shown in FIG.
The module 1002 includes three systems: a signal processing system, a document creation processing system, and a communication processing system.

The signal processing system includes an image detector 1111 composed of a CCD camera or the like, a voice detector 1112 composed of a microphone or the like, an impact G detector 1113 composed of an acceleration sensor or the like, and detectors 1111 to 1113. Sensor output storage units 1114 to 111 each including an amplifier for storing the output from the A / D converter, an A / D converter, and an endless memory
6. Memory storage trigger 1117 for determining the storage timing in the sensor output storages 1114 to 1116, a failure occurrence input unit 1118 composed of buttons and the like for a pedestrian to input a determination of occurrence of a traffic failure, shock G detection Part 1113
And a passer navigation unit 1122 including a direction sensor and map data for determining the current position of the passer who carries the system. Have.

The document creation processing system includes the failure occurrence input unit 1
This is for creating a document in which predetermined items are described when the occurrence of a traffic obstacle is determined by 118 or the failure occurrence determination unit 1119. By executing a well-known document creation program on a computer having a CPU and a memory, The system includes a notification document creation unit 1120 to be realized and a document storage unit 1121 for storing the created notification document.

The communication processing system includes the report document creation unit 112
An e-mail report unit 1124 that transmits the document created in step 0 as an e-mail to a predetermined destination, and a telephone report unit 1125 that makes a telephone report to a predetermined telephone number are provided.

The traffic fault notification system according to the present embodiment includes:
It is provided with four types of sensors: an image detection unit 1111, a voice detection unit 1112, an impact G detection unit 1113, and a direction sensor 1114.
The impact acceleration (G) received by a pedestrian and the current position are detected on a map. The failure occurrence determination unit 1119 determines that a traffic failure has occurred when the impact G detection unit 1113 detects acceleration equal to or higher than a preset slice level of G at which it is determined that a failure has occurred in the passerby. And open the fault occurrence gate. Thereafter, the passerby enters the fault occurrence input unit 1
If a failure is determined via 118, the process proceeds to the subsequent failure notification process, and the image / audio data at that time is stored. Further, the failure occurrence input unit 1
The configuration may be such that when either one of the failure determination unit 118 and the failure occurrence determination unit 1119 determines that a failure has occurred, the process directly proceeds to the failure occurrence process.

The report document creating section 1120 inputs a report document for reporting the occurrence of a failure using the operation input section of the cellular phone 1001 or a keyboard of a mobile data communication terminal provided elsewhere. The content of the report document is not particularly limited as long as it can report that a traffic obstacle has occurred, but preferably includes the following items, for example.

1. 1. Personal ID Obstacle situation 3. Date and time of occurrence Location of occurrence 5. Image / audio G recording 6. Ambulance dispatch request The personal ID in the above item 1 is entered in a Japanese document converted into kanji in advance. Items 3, 4, and 5 automatically fill in information from sensors and timers provided in the system of the present embodiment. In the second and sixth terms, when a failure occurs, the information is input in a selective manner, or if it is not possible, only the facts are documented in a self-filling manner by a preset program. In addition, a configuration may be provided in which a voice recognition program is further provided and a document is created using the program.

The created document is stored and transmitted as an e-mail to a preset destination such as the prefectural police number 110 via the mobile phone 1001. After sending the e-mail, the mobile phone 1001 is automatically connected to the same contact, and a supplementary notification is made. Furthermore, the mobile phone is continuously connected to the contact information of the family registered in advance. If it is determined that emergency medical care is required (an ambulance dispatch request has been made in the above section 6), connection to the emergency hospital is made when the first report destination is 110 and the report to 110 is completed. By setting in such a way, it is requested to dispatch an ambulance.

In the pedestrian navigation section 1122, if the system is carried by a pedestrian, the pedestrian area may be smaller than that of a car, and may cover only a municipal or prefectural area. From the viewpoint of portability, it is preferable to perform navigation while calibrating with a map using an orientation sensor from GPS in terms of cost performance.

As the mobile phone 1001, a conventional standard specification mobile phone is used. Conventional mobile phones have functions that can be used for the above-described document creation, e-mail notification, and telephone notification. Therefore, in order to realize the traffic obstruction notification system of the present embodiment, it is desirable that the functions required by the present invention, which cannot be achieved by the conventional mobile phone, be integrated into one module 1002. The details will be described with reference to FIG.

Also, since the conventional mobile data communication terminal is also integrated into a single package with a built-in cable and mobile phone, the navigation processing unit and the fault occurrence notification portion, which are made into an IC card, are programmed in this terminal. By mounting it, the traffic obstruction notification system of the present invention may be realized. The details will be described with reference to FIG.

FIG. 20 shows an example of packaging of each unit in the traffic fault notification system. The aim of this package configuration is to use the conventional standard mobile phone 100.
This is to make effective use of all of the document creation function, e-mail function and telephone function of 1A, and to combine the other units into one module 1002A.

The module 1002A includes a pedestrian navigation unit 1122 described with reference to FIG. 19, an image detection unit 1111 for detecting images and voices around the road, a voice detection unit 1112, and an impact G for detecting an impact G applied to the pedestrian. A detection unit 1113, a time detection unit (not shown) for detecting time, sensor output storage units 1114 to 1116 that endlessly record outputs from these detection units, a memory storage trigger unit 1117 for storing sensor output when a failure occurs, A failure occurrence input unit 1118 and a failure occurrence determination unit 1119 are provided.

The memory save trigger 1117 is operated by the button 1 of the failure input unit 1118 based on the judgment of the failure occurrence judging unit 1119 based on the shock G signal or the judgment of the pedestrian.
Trigger a save by either pressing 118a.

The module 1002A has a power switch 1202 as an operation button in addition to the button 1118a of the failure occurrence input section 1118, and a shutter 12 for manual photographing.
03, the operation confirmation button 1201 is
04 are arranged side by side. Both the voice detection microphone and the direction sensor for pedestrian navigation are built in the case of the module.

A document is created on the mobile phone 1001A by:
Since it is operated with only one finger, it is not early, but there is no problem if you get used to it. In addition, for example, FIG.
It is preferable to provide keys or buttons as shown in FIG. The I button 1210 selects the mode menu display, and the MSI button 1211 selects the menu display M, small letter S, and mode menu I lock. LTR button 121
2 is a character input mode, and RTN 1213 is a return button for returning to the previous setting. Also, among the up, down, left, and right buttons,
The down button also functions as a kanji conversion button. The enter key 1214 is located at the center of the up, down, left, and right buttons.

When inputting a text document using a dictionary program or the like, a text type is selected and input in the manner of inputting telephone directory data. Kanji is input by using Kana and converted to Kanji with a conversion key. Kana input is also used with numeric keys. Other keys are omitted.

FIG. 21 shows a second example of the unit configuration of the traffic fault notification system.

The feature of this example is that all the units constituting the system of this embodiment are included in one package 1301. That is, in the package 1301 of this example, the mobile phone function is built in the mobile data communication terminal, and the pedestrian navigation unit and the traffic fault occurrence notification unit are built in a memory such as a detachable IC card. Voice and location information is converted into chart data, and data and documents can be sent and communicated via e-mail and mobile phones. If these units are removed, it functions as a standard portable data communication terminal.

In FIG. 21, reference numeral 1345 denotes a navigation unit, and 1344 denotes an IC card containing map information. 1346 is a camera, 1347 is a microphone, 1348
Is an impact G sensor, and 1349 is a smart memory that performs endless recording by these signal processing circuits. In addition, 1
342 is a mobile phone unit built in the terminal, 13
Reference numeral 41 denotes a mobile phone antenna arranged on the right side with the terminal cover closed. Antenna 1341, image detection camera 1346, navigation map IC card 134
4 are all arranged on the right side of the package 1301.

FIG. 22 shows an example of a document format of a trouble report document created and reported in the traffic trouble report system of the present embodiment. In this example, the above-described items are described as a document 1401 (item 1) and a document 1402 (items 2 to 6). Note that the items of the second and sixth items included in the document 1402 are not described in the report document, but are added as supplementary explanations when a report is made by a telephone connected after sending an e-mail.

Since the trouble report must be dealt with promptly after the number 110 is reported, it is desirable that the trouble report is a simple and clear document. There are various screen sizes of mobile data communication terminals and mobile phones that realize the system of the present embodiment, but it is preferable to unify the document format,
It is a good idea to set it so that it can be checked on the display screen of a relatively small mobile phone.

According to the present embodiment, road passers including bicycles and motorcycles, for example, the elderly, women, children, and disabled persons,
If you encounter an obstacle due to an accident,
When making a 10 call, e-mail information such as pre-recorded image / audio data, personal ID, location and time of failure occurrence, and provide supplementary explanation on the mobile phone so that passers-by can take thorough measures after failure. The effect is great. For family members, the means of communication will allow them to go out with peace of mind.

In particular, even if the user becomes unable to perform the notification process as a result of receiving the fault, the apparatus automatically proceeds with the notification process and is programmed to make the notification without inputting the information at the time of occurrence of the fault. The point is rather reassuring.

[0123]

According to the present invention, if a pedestrian including a pedestrian or a driver is in an accident or is in a state where it is determined that there is a high possibility of having an accident, the fact is described. It is possible to provide a traffic failure notification system that notifies a passer-by or another passer-by.
