In such a shopping assist system, when the user inputs a desired product on the input screen of the shopping assist terminal device attached to the cart, the route navigation system places the user at the display position of the input purchase planned product. A guidance route for guidance is set, and the user is guided in the store according to the set guidance route.

JP 2012-185581 A

  By the way, in the shopping assist system described in Patent Document 1, the user inputs or selects a product that the user wants to purchase at the shopping assist terminal, and guides the user to the display position of the product. For this reason, it is not judged whether the said goods are suitable for a user's state. For this reason, the user may purchase a product that is not suitable for the user.

  An object of the present invention is to solve at least a part of the above-described problems, and an action support apparatus and an action support system capable of presenting an action that can enjoy at least one of a service and a product suitable for a user. One of the purposes is to provide an action proposal method.

  The behavior support apparatus according to the first aspect of the present invention is inputted with a biometric information detection unit that detects biometric information of a user, an input unit that inputs a desired behavior that is a behavior that the user desires to implement. A desired action acquisition unit that acquires the action content of the desired action, and an action determination unit that determines whether the user has a problem in performing the desired action based on the detected biological information. When the behavior determining unit determines that there is a problem in the user performing the desired behavior, an alternative behavior determined by the behavior determining unit based on the biological information is determined as having no problem. And an action presentation unit to be presented.

According to the first aspect, when it is determined based on the biological information whether or not there is a problem with the user performing the desired action desired by the user, and when it is determined that there is a problem. An alternative action that does not cause a problem for the user to perform is proposed based on the biological information, and the alternative action is presented.
Accordingly, it is possible to suppress the implementation of the desired behavior that has a problem for the user to implement, and to encourage the user to perform the above alternative behavior that is an alternative to the desired behavior. Therefore, the user can execute an action suitable for the state of the user by executing the presented alternative action.

In the first aspect, it is preferable that the alternative action is an action determined along the desired action based on the biological information and having no problem by the action determination unit.
According to the first aspect, the alternative action is an action along the desired action. According to this, since an alternative action in accordance with the user's desired action is presented, it is possible to facilitate the user to perform the alternative action, and resistance when the user implements the alternative action The feeling can be suppressed. Accordingly, it is possible to easily execute an action suitable for the state of the user.

In the first aspect, it is preferable that the desired action is an action for enjoying a receiving object including at least one of a service and an article.
According to the said 1st aspect, when there exists a problem in performing a desired action by a user, the said alternative action which changed the enjoyment object can be proposed. In other words, when there is a problem with the user performing the desired action, an alternative action that is an alternative to the desired action can be proposed by changing the enjoyment target. Therefore, the alternative action can be easily proposed and presented.

In the first aspect, there is an article information acquisition unit that acquires the article information relating to the article included in the enjoyment target of the alternative action from an information processing apparatus that manages article information relating to each of a plurality of articles, The behavior presentation unit preferably presents the product information acquired by the product information acquisition unit.
An example of the information processing apparatus is a server constituting a point-of-sale information management system (so-called POS system). This point-of-sale information management system includes, for example, stores such as supermarkets and convenience stores, and devices such as vending machines, and the above-described server that communicates with them via a network and executes inventory management of articles and the like. The Examples of the item information include the name of the item, a description, a list price (desired retail price), and a photograph.
According to the first aspect, the article information regarding the article included in the alternative action enjoyment target is acquired from the information processing apparatus, and the article information is presented. According to this, it is possible to present to the user article information relating to an article that is adapted to the user's condition and that is included in the alternative action enjoyment target changed from the desired action enjoyment target. Therefore, detailed information on the article can be presented to the user. In addition, since it is not necessary for the action support apparatus to hold article information regarding each article that may be presented, if the action support apparatus has a storage unit that stores predetermined information, the storage capacity of the storage unit Can be reduced.

In the first aspect, at least one of the desired behavior and the alternative behavior is obtained from a location information acquisition unit that acquires the current location of the user and an information processing device that manages location information regarding a provision location where goods and services can be provided. A location information acquisition unit that acquires the location information indicating the location where the enjoyment target according to any of the locations can be enjoyed based on the acquired current location, and the behavior presentation unit is acquired It is preferable to present the location information.
An example of the information processing apparatus is an information processing apparatus that constitutes a point-of-sale information management system as described above.
According to the first aspect, the location information related to the place where the alternative action can be enjoyed is acquired from the information processing apparatus, and the acquired location information is presented to the user. According to this, a user can be made to grasp | ascertain the place which can enjoy the enjoyment object of alternative action. Further, since the location information presented in this way is location information acquired based on the current position of the user, for example, it is possible to present to the user a provision location that is relatively close to the current position. Therefore, the user can easily perform the substitute action.

In the first aspect, the action presentation unit includes a route from the current position to a place where the enjoyment target can be enjoyed, and a time required for moving from the current position to the place where the enjoyment target can be enjoyed. It is preferable to present at least one of them.
According to the first aspect, since at least one of the route and the required time is presented, the user can more easily implement the presented alternative action.

In the first aspect, it has a user information acquisition unit that acquires user information that is information about the user input to the input unit, and the action presentation unit is based on the user information. It is preferable to present an alternative action.
Examples of user information include user attributes, medical history, food preferences, user habits, and behavior history.
Here, for example, when the biometric information detection unit detects blood pressure as biometric information and the user's desired action is “entering a hot spring”, if the user is in a hypertensive state, It is conceivable to present as an alternative action to enter a hot spring with a relatively low temperature. However, depending on the user's medical history, even if the hot water temperature is low, a whole body bath may not be preferable.
On the other hand, according to the said 1st aspect, when presenting the alternative action according to a user's desired action, the alternative action based on the said user information other than biometric information is shown. According to this, for example, an alternative action of entering a hot spring with a half-body bath and an alternative action of entering a footbath can be presented to a user who does not prefer a whole body bath. Therefore, it is possible to present an action that is more suitable for the state of the user.

In the first aspect, the behavior determination unit determines whether or not there is a problem with the user performing the desired behavior based on whether or not the detected biological information is within a normal range. Is preferably determined.
According to the first aspect, for example, when the biological information detection unit detects a blood glucose level as biological information, and the user's desired action is “eating ice cream”, the detected user's If the blood sugar level is a value classified as hyperglycemia, an alternative action “drink a sports drink with less sugar than ice cream” can be presented instead of the desired action. Therefore, even when the user is not aware of the abnormality of the body, an alternative action suitable for the body can be presented, and an action to make the user's state good can be promoted.

In the first aspect, a body motion information detection unit that detects body motion information of the user is provided, and the behavior determination unit determines the desired behavior based on the biological information and the body motion information. It is preferable to determine whether there is a problem in implementation.
According to the first aspect, there is a problem in that the user performs the desired action based not only on the biological information detected by the biological information detection unit but also on the body movement information detected by the body movement information detection unit. It is determined whether or not there is. According to this, since the state of the user can be detected and grasped more appropriately, whether or not there is a problem in the user's implementation of the desired behavior, and thus whether or not an alternative behavior needs to be proposed and presented Can be determined more appropriately.

In the first aspect, the storage unit stores a table in which the desired behavior, the biological information, and the alternative behavior are associated with each other, and the input desired behavior is detected based on the table. It is preferable that an alternative action determination unit that determines the alternative action corresponding to the biological information is provided, and the action presentation unit presents the determined alternative action.
According to the first aspect, the alternative action determining unit determines an alternative action along the desired action based on the table stored in the storage unit. According to this, the presentation action presented by the action proposing unit can be determined accurately and easily. Therefore, in addition to simplifying the processing related to the proposal and determination of the alternative action, it is possible to reliably present an alternative action suitable for the user.

In the first aspect, the biological information detection unit detects at least one of the user's pulse wave, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, blood sugar level, sweating amount, and blood alcohol concentration as the biological information. It is preferable to do.
According to the first aspect, the biological information detection unit detects the biological information to determine whether the user has a problem in performing the desired behavior based on the biological information. Can be determined.

  An action support system according to a second aspect of the present invention includes: a detection device that detects and transmits a user's biological information; and an information processing device that processes the biological information transmitted from the detection device. The apparatus includes a biometric information detection unit that detects the biometric information, an input unit that inputs a desired behavior that is an action that the user wants to perform, and a desired behavior that acquires the action content of the input desired behavior An acquisition unit; a detection device-side transmission unit that transmits the detected biological information; and the action content of the acquired desired behavior; and a notification unit that notifies information received from the information processing device. The information processing device is configured to determine whether the user has a problem in performing the desired behavior based on the biological information received from the detection device, and the behavior By the judgment part When it is determined that there is a problem in the user performing the desired behavior, an action presentation unit that presents an alternative behavior determined by the behavior determination unit as no problem based on the biological information; And a processing device-side transmitting unit that transmits behavior information indicating alternative behavior to the detection device.

  According to the said 2nd aspect, there can exist an effect similar to the action assistance apparatus which concerns on the said 1st aspect. In addition, since the information processing apparatus performs the determination process by the action determination unit and the alternative action proposal process by the action presentation unit, the information processing apparatus executes a process with relatively large power consumption and a large processing load. As a result, the detection apparatus can be operated for a relatively long time, and the cost can be reduced.

An action suggesting method according to a third aspect of the present invention is an action proposing method performed using an action proposing device for proposing an action according to a user's biological information, and is input by the user and the user Obtains the action content of the desired action desired to be performed, determines whether or not there is a problem with the user performing the desired action based on the biometric information of the user, and determines the desired action If it is determined that there is a problem with the user, the alternative action is determined based on the biometric information.
According to the third aspect, when the action support device executes the action suggestion method according to the third aspect, the same effect as the action support device according to the first aspect can be obtained.

Other biological information may be detected.
The body motion information detection unit 222 detects acceleration that changes according to the body motion of the user as the body motion information of the user.

[Receiver configuration]
The receiving unit 23 corresponds to a position information acquisition unit that acquires position information indicating the current position of the action support device 2 (that is, position information indicating the current position of the user). For example, the receiving unit 23 corresponds to a satellite positioning system such as GPS (Global Positioning System) and acquires position information indicating the current position based on radio waves received from the satellite. Then, the reception unit 23 outputs the acquired position information to the control unit 27. In addition, it can replace with such a structure and can also be set as the structure which calculates position information using the radio wave for communication.

[Configuration of notification unit]
The notification unit 24 notifies various information under the control of the control unit 27. For example, the alerting | reporting part 24 alert | reports the operation state of the action assistance apparatus 2, and the detected information. Moreover, although mentioned later in detail, the said alerting | reporting part 24 alert | reports the present user's state and either the said desired action and the said alternative action. That is, the alerting | reporting part 24 presents the action produced | generated by the presentation information generation part 280 mentioned later, and comprises the action presentation part of this invention.
Such a notification unit 24 includes a display unit 241, an audio output unit 242, and a vibration unit 243.

The audio output unit 242 includes a speaker, and outputs audio corresponding to audio information input from the control unit 27.
The vibration unit 243 has a motor whose drive is controlled by the control unit 27 described later, and notifies the state of the action support device 2 by vibration generated by driving the motor.

[Configuration of communication section]
The communication unit 25 includes a communication module that can communicate with the server 3 via the network N under the control of the control unit 27. For example, the communication unit 25 communicates with the server 3 and acquires various types of information from the server 3. In this embodiment, the communication unit 25 communicates wirelessly with a base station or a connected device (for example, a router) connected to the network N, and is thereby connected to the server 3, but can communicate with the server 3. If so, the connection type and the connection mode are not limited.

[Configuration of storage unit]
The storage unit 26 is configured by a storage device having a flash memory or the like, and stores programs and data necessary for the operation of the action support device 2.
For example, the storage unit 26 stores in advance connection information and various map information for communication connection with the server 3 via the communication unit 25 as the data.

5 to 7 are diagrams illustrating an example of the determination table.
The storage unit 26 stores a plurality of determination tables in which alternative actions similar to the desired action according to the user's biological information (blood glucose level and sweating amount) and the amount of exercise are set. In these determination tables, alternative actions for the desired action are set according to the detailed state of the user.
For example, the determination table shown in FIG. 5 is a sugar intake determination table that is referred to when the desired action is “eating ice cream”. In this sugar intake determination table, as shown in FIG. 5, the state of the user (that is, the blood glucose level of the user, the amount of sweating) and alternative behavior (for example, behavior that can enjoy a product suitable for the user). Etc. are set in association with each other.

In this sugar intake determination table, desired behavior, a numerical range of blood glucose level, some amount of sweating, and alternative behavior are set as items.
Among these, the alternative action is an action determined that there is no problem even if it is executed. More specifically, the action determination unit 277, which will be described later if it follows the desired action and does not have any problem if executed by the user. The action to be judged.
In such a sugar intake determination table, for example, an action “drink a sports drink” is set as an alternative action in a line where the blood sugar level is 140 mg / dl or more and the amount of sweating is large. The contents of such a sugar intake determination table are created from a medical viewpoint and a nutritional viewpoint.

In addition, an action of “eating lact ice” is set as an alternative action in a line where the blood sugar level is 140 mg / dl or more and the amount of sweating is small.
Furthermore, an action of “eating shaved ice” is set as an alternative action in a row where the blood sugar level is 120 mg / dl or more and less than 140 mg / dl, regardless of the amount of sweating.
In addition, an action of “eating ice cream” is set as an alternative action in a row where the blood sugar level is less than 120 mg / dl, regardless of the amount of sweating. In other words, when the blood glucose level is less than 120 mg / dl, it is not hyperglycemia, and thus the input desired action is an alternative action. In other words, if the blood glucose level is less than 120 mg / dl, the alternative action determination unit 278 does not function.
That is, when the user's condition is a hyperglycemia symptom, the alternative action determining unit 278 determines an alternative action according to the user's condition from the sugar intake determination table included in the determination table.
In the sugar intake determination table, the amount of exercise is not provided as an item, but the item may be provided and an alternative action may be determined according to the item. In this case, some determination of the amount of exercise is made based on the detected body motion information.

  For example, the determination table shown in FIG. 6 is a drinking determination table that is referred to when the desired action is “drink alcohol”. In this drinking determination table, as shown in FIG. 6, the user's condition (that is, the user's blood pressure and blood alcohol concentration) and alternative behavior (for example, the user receives a product suitable for the user). Possible actions) and the like are set in association with each other.

In this drinking determination table, desired behavior, a numerical range of blood pressure, a numerical range of blood alcohol concentration, and alternative behavior are set as items.
In such a drinking determination table, for example, an action “drink non-alcoholic beverages such as tea” is set as an alternative action in a row having a blood pressure value of 150 mmHg or more. The content of such a drinking determination table is created from a medical viewpoint and a nutritional viewpoint.
In addition, an action of “drinking a non-alcoholic beverage such as tea” is set as an alternative action in a row where the blood pressure is 140 mmHg or more and less than 150 mmHg and the blood alcohol concentration is 0.05 mg / L or more. On the other hand, for a line where the blood pressure is 140 mmHg or more and less than 150 mmHg and the blood alcohol concentration is 0.03 mg / L or more and less than 0.05 mg / L, an alternative action is “drink alcoholic beverages with alcohol content of less than 5%”. Action is set. Furthermore, an action “drink an alcoholic beverage with an alcohol content of less than 5%” is set as an alternative action in a line where the blood pressure is 140 mmHg or more and less than 150 mmHg and the blood alcohol concentration is less than 0.03 mg / L. .

Furthermore, an action of “drink alcoholic beverages with an alcohol content of less than 5%” is set as an alternative action in a row where the blood pressure is less than 140 mmHg and the blood alcohol concentration is 0.05 mg / L or more. On the other hand, if the blood pressure is less than 140 mmHg and the blood alcohol concentration is 0.03 mg / L or more and less than 0.05 mg / L, or if the blood alcohol concentration is less than 0.03 mg / L, The action “Drink alcohol (usually drinkable)” is set.
That is, when the blood pressure is less than 140 mmHg and the blood alcohol concentration is less than 0.03 mg / L, since the blood pressure value and the blood alcohol concentration are not so high, the input desired action is an alternative action. In other words, if the blood pressure is less than 140 mmHg and the blood alcohol concentration is 0.03 mg / L, the alternative action determining unit 278 does not function.
That is, when the blood pressure value of the user is relatively high, or when the blood alcohol concentration is relatively high, the alternative action determination unit 278 selects the alcohol consumption determination table included in the determination table according to the user's condition. Determine alternative actions.

  Further, for example, the determination table shown in FIG. 7 is a bathing determination table that is referred to when the desired action is “entering a hot spring”. In this bathing determination table, as shown in FIG. 7, the state of the user (that is, the user's blood pressure, pulse), alternative behavior (for example, behavior that can enjoy services suitable for the user), etc. They are set in association with each other.

In this bathing determination table, desired behavior, a numerical range of blood pressure, a numerical range of pulse, and an alternative behavior are set as items.
In such a bathing determination table, for example, an action of “entering a footbath” is set as an alternative action in a row having a blood pressure value of 150 mmHg or more. The content of such a bathing determination table is created from a medical viewpoint and a nutritional viewpoint.
In addition, an action of “entering a footbath” is set as an alternative action in a line where the blood pressure is 140 mmHg or more and less than 150 mmHg and the pulse is 130 times / min or more. On the other hand, an action of “half-body bathing” is set as an alternative action in a line where the blood pressure is 140 mmHg or more and less than 150 mmHg and the pulse is 120 times / min or more and less than 130 times / min. Furthermore, an action of “entering a hot spring with a hot water temperature of 39 ° C. or lower” is set as an alternative action in a line where the blood pressure is 140 mmHg or more and less than 150 mmHg and the pulse is less than 120 times / min.

Furthermore, the action of “entering a hot spring” is set as an alternative action in a row where the blood pressure is less than 140 mmHg. That is, when the blood pressure is less than 140 mmHg, it is not a hypertension symptom, and thus the input desired action is an alternative action. In other words, if the blood pressure is less than 140 mmHg, the alternative action determination unit 278 does not function.
That is, when the user's condition is a hypertension symptom, the alternative action determining unit 278 determines an alternative action according to the user's condition from the bathing determination table included in the determination table.

The storage unit 26 stores detection information (biological information, body motion information, and position information) detected and acquired by the detection unit 22 and user information acquired by an information acquisition unit 275 described later. .
In addition, for example, as the behavior presentation control program, the storage unit 26 performs the desired behavior that the user desires to implement based on the user's biological information, body movement information, and user information. It is determined whether there is a problem, and if it is determined that there is a problem with the user performing the desired action, the action is in line with the desired action and the user has a problem Otherwise, an action presentation control program for executing an action presentation process for presenting an alternative action determined based on biometric information is stored.

[Configuration of control unit]
FIG. 8 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the control unit 27.
The control unit 27 is configured by a processing circuit such as a CPU, and controls the operation of the behavior support device 2 autonomously or based on an operation signal input from the operation unit 21 in response to a user operation. For example, the control unit 27 analyzes biological information and body motion information detected by the detection unit 22. In addition to this biometric information and body motion information, the control unit 27 determines whether there is no problem in performing the input desired action based on the input user information. Then, when it is determined that there is a problem in performing the desired action, the control unit 27 presents the alternative action instead of the desired action.
As shown in FIG. 8, such a control unit 27 includes a detection control unit 271, a notification control unit 272, a communication unit as functional units realized by the control circuit executing the program stored in the storage unit 26. It has the control part 273, the time measuring part 274, the information acquisition part 275, the desired action acquisition part 276, the action determination part 277, the alternative action determination part 278, the target information acquisition part 279, the presentation information generation part 280, and the route generation part 281. .

  The detection control unit 271 controls the operation of the detection unit 22 and causes the storage unit 26 to store the detection result of the detection unit 22. The detection control unit 271 causes the detection unit 22 to detect each piece of information if the action support device 2 is worn by a user and the detection unit 22 can detect biological information and body movement information. If the detection unit 22 cannot detect each information, the operation of the detection unit 22 is stopped. For this reason, when the action support apparatus 2 is worn by the user, the storage unit 26 stores the detected biological information and motion information. When the action support device 2 is not worn by the user, These pieces of information are not stored and power consumption can be suppressed.

The notification control unit 272 controls the operation of the notification unit 24. For example, the notification control unit 272 controls the operation of the display unit 241 of the notification unit 24 to display the biological information and body movement information detected by the detection unit 22.
In addition, when the behavior determination unit 277 determines that the user's biological information is not in the normal range, the notification control unit 272 operates the vibration unit 243 to make the user aware of the display content. Further, the notification control unit 272 displays the information including the action content of the alternative action generated by the presentation information generation unit 280 described later, and the route information generated by the route generation unit 281 with the notification unit 24 (specifically, the display unit 241). ) To the user.
Since the notification control unit 272 presents the information generated by the presentation information generation unit 280 and the route generation unit 281 to the user by the notification unit 24, the notification display unit 24 and the action presentation unit of the present invention are provided. Configure.

The communication control unit 273 controls the operation of the communication unit 25 and makes it communicate with the server 3 based on the connection information stored in the storage unit 26.
The timer 274 measures the current time. The time measured by the time measuring unit 274 is used for determining whether or not the measured time is included in the business hours of the facility (store) that provides the goods and services enjoyed by the user.
The information acquisition unit 275 acquires the biological information and body motion information detected by the detection unit 22 and the position information acquired by the reception unit 23 and stores them in the storage unit 26. The information acquisition unit 275 acquires user information. The user information includes user attributes that can be input on the user information input screen, the presence or absence of a medical condition, product preferences, and user behavior history.
Examples of the behavior history include “when and where”, “daily running route”, and the like. Such an action history is acquired based on the position information stored in the storage unit 26.

  The desired action acquisition unit 276 acquires the action content of the desired action input by the user through an input operation on the operation unit 21. When such a desired action is input by the user and acquired by the desired action acquisition unit 276, an action presentation process is executed. This action presentation process will be described in detail later.

The behavior determination unit 277 functions when the desired behavior acquisition unit 276 acquires the behavior content of the desired behavior input by the user. The behavior determination unit 277 determines whether or not there is a problem with the user performing the desired behavior based on the detected biological information and body motion information and the acquired user information.
Specifically, the behavior determination unit 277 refers to the determination table stored in the storage unit 26, compares the content of the biological information corresponding to the desired behavior with the detected biological information, and determines the desired behavior. It is determined whether or not there is a problem with the implementation by the user.
For example, when the action content of the desired action is “eating ice cream”, the action determining unit 277 refers to the determination table corresponding to the desired action (sugar intake determination table shown in FIG. 5). Then, the behavior determination unit 277 compares the content of the biological information set in the determination table with the current user's biological information.
Here, for example, if the blood glucose level of the current user is less than 120 mg / dl, the behavior determination unit 277 determines that there is no problem for the user to perform the acquired desired behavior.
On the other hand, for example, if the blood glucose level of the current user is 120 mg / dl or more, the behavior determination unit 277 determines that there is a problem with the user performing the acquired desired behavior.

The alternative action determination unit 278 functions when the action determination unit 277 determines that there is a problem with the user performing the desired action. The alternative action determining unit 278 determines an alternative action to be presented to the user by acquiring an alternative action corresponding to the corresponding biological information in the determination table referred to by the action determining unit 277.
For example, if the action content of the desired action is “eating ice cream” and the blood glucose level of the current user is 130 mg / dl, the alternative action determining unit 278 sets “eating shaved ice” as the alternative action. Determine as.

  If the behavior determination unit 277 determines that there is no problem even if the behavior determination unit 277 performs the desired behavior, the target information acquisition unit 279 acquires information about the enjoyment target (at least one of a service and an article) included in the desired behavior. In addition, when the behavior determination unit 277 determines that there is no problem even if the desired behavior is performed, information regarding the enjoyment target included in the alternative behavior is acquired. Specifically, the target information acquisition unit 279 sets a search condition based on the enjoyment target, position information indicating the current position of the user, and the user information, and the search condition via the communication unit 25. Is transmitted to the server 3. Then, when the server 3 searches for information corresponding to the search condition (information to be enjoyed or information about a store that can provide the enjoyment target) and the information is received from the server 3 by the communication unit 25, The target information acquisition unit 279 acquires the received information. Such target information acquisition unit 279 corresponds to the article information acquisition unit and the location information acquisition unit of the present invention.

For example, when the detected user's blood glucose level is 140 mg / dl or more and the alternative action determined by the alternative action determination unit 278 is “drink a sports drink”, the target information acquisition unit 279 A search condition including “sports drink”, user information, and the current position of the user is set. With respect to this search condition, the server 3 corresponds to “sports drink” from the detailed information table 312 and is a product according to the user's food preference included in the user information (for example, weak sweetness). Goods) product ID. Then, the server 3 refers to the content table 311 to acquire product information such as the product name of the product ID and the handling store, and refers to the store information table 313 and the handling product information tables 321, 331, and 341. Among the places where the merchandise can be enjoyed, information on a place (store) that is currently in business, close to the current position, and has no stock of the merchandise is acquired. These search results are transmitted from the server 3 to the action support device 2, and the target information acquisition unit 279 acquires the search results.
In this way, the target information acquisition unit 279 acquires, for example, information on the product name “www water” as a candidate for “sports drink” that is the target of the alternative action, and among the stores that receive the target , Information on a store that is currently in operation, close to the current position of the user, and whose product inventory is not 0 is acquired.

The presentation information generation unit 280 generates presentation information indicating the content of the proposal to the user based on the determined alternative action and the acquired search result. The presentation information generated by the presentation information generation unit 280 is notified (displayed) to the notification unit 24 (display unit 241) under the control of the notification control unit 272.
This presentation information includes information indicating a user's state (for example, hyperglycemia symptoms), information indicating alternative behavior (information indicating a product suitable for the user), and information indicating a place where the product can be obtained. Is done.

FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an example of the information presentation screen SC1 generated by the presentation information generation unit 280.
For example, as shown in FIG. 9, in the information presentation screen SC1 generated by the presentation information generation unit 280 when the alternative action is presented, the reason for presenting the alternative action (that is, the user performs the desired action) The area SC11 in which the content of the alternative action is set, and the area SC13 in which information related to the enjoyment target of the alternative action is set.
In the example of FIG. 9, the content indicating that “the user may have a hyperglycemia symptom” is set in the area SC11, and instead of the ice cream that is the target of the desired action, an alternative action is set in the area SC12. An explanatory note that recommends taking a sports drink that is the target of the enjoyment is set. In the area SC13, an explanatory note recommending “ww water” which is a candidate for the sports drink is set.

Such an information presentation screen SC1 is displayed on the display unit 241 by the notification control unit 272, whereby the generated presentation information (information presentation screen SC1) is presented to the user.
In addition, on the information presentation screen SC1, a button SC14 for displaying a route guidance screen SC2 (see FIG. 10) showing a route to a place where the candidate for the enjoyment included in the explanatory text set in the area SC13 can be enjoyed. Is set. This route guidance screen SC2 is generated by the route generation unit 281.

  The route generation unit 281 generates a screen that is included in the search result acquired by the target information acquisition unit 279 and presents information about a place (store) where the enjoyment target can be enjoyed. Specifically, the route generation unit 281 generates a route guidance screen including a route from the current position to a place where the enjoyment target can be enjoyed and information related to the place.

FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example of the route guidance screen SC2.
For example, the route generation unit 281 generates a route guidance screen SC2 shown in FIG.
In addition to setting a map around the current position of the user, the route guidance screen SC2 relates to information to be received acquired as a search result and handling stores (store A, store B, and vending machine C). Information is set. Specifically, on the route guidance screen SC2, the product name and photograph of the “www water” are set as information to be received. In addition, the route guidance screen SC2 displays the location of the handling store on the map as information on the handling store, and also handles the inventory quantity and price at the handling store, the business information of the handling store, and the current location. The required time to the store is set.
Such a route guidance screen SC2 is generated by the route generation unit 281 when the button SC14 of the information presentation screen SC1 is pressed (input) as described above, and is displayed under the control of the notification control unit 272. Is displayed.

  In addition, based on the acquired position information, for example, when it is determined that the user has entered the store A, the route generation unit 281 is based on the display position of “www water” in the acquired store A. Then, a route from the entrance of the store A to the display position of the “www water” is generated, and an in-store guide screen including the route is generated. The in-store guidance screen is displayed on the display unit 241 under the control of the notification control unit 272, so that the user can be guided to the display position.

FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example of a vending machine that executes a product presentation process.
On the other hand, when the behavior support apparatus 2 enters the communicable range of the vending machine C, the vending machine C communicates with the behavior support apparatus 2 and acquires information (for example, product ID) regarding the enjoyment target. . And the vending machine C blinks the purchase button C1 of the said goods, as shown in FIG. Thereby, the user can easily identify the target enjoyment target.

FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of the information presentation screen SC3, and FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating an example of the route guidance screen SC4.
Here, another example of the information presentation screen generated by the presentation information generation unit 280 and the route guidance screen generated by the route generation unit 281 will be described.
For example, in the information presentation screen SC3 generated by the presentation information generation unit 280 when the alternative action is presented, an area SC31 in which the reason for presenting the alternative action is set, as shown in FIG. And an area SC32 in which information related to the enjoyment target is set.
In the example of FIG. 12, the content that “the user may have a hypertension symptom” is set in the area SC31, and instead of the ss hot spring that is the target of the desired action, an alternative action is displayed in the area SC32. An explanatory note recommending that you enter the xx hot springs to be enjoyed is set.

Such an information presentation screen SC3 is displayed on the display unit 241 by the notification control unit 272, whereby the generated presentation information (information presentation screen SC3) is presented to the user.
Note that the information presentation screen SC3 includes a button SC33 for displaying a route guidance screen SC4 (see FIG. 13) indicating a route to a place where the candidate to be received included in the explanatory text set in the area SC32 can be enjoyed. Is set. This route guidance screen SC4 is generated by the route generation unit 281.

For example, the route generation unit 281 generates a route guidance screen SC4 shown in FIG.
In this route guidance screen SC4, a map around the current position of the user is set, and information related to the enjoyment target acquired as a search result is set. Specifically, the name “xx hot spring” is set as information to be received on the route guidance screen SC4. In addition, on the route guidance screen SC4, the location of the xx hot spring is displayed on the map as information on the location, and the xx hot spring from the hot water temperature, business hours, bathing fee, and current location in the xx hot spring. The required time until is set.
Such a route guidance screen SC4 is generated by the route generation unit 281 when the button SC33 of the information presentation screen SC3 is pressed (input) as described above, and is displayed under the control of the notification control unit 272. Is displayed.

FIG. 14 is a flowchart showing the presentation control process.
The control unit 27 executes the following presentation control process based on the program stored in the storage unit 26. This presentation control process determines whether or not there is a problem with the user performing the desired behavior that the user wants to perform based on the user's biological information, body movement information, and user information, If it is determined that there is a problem with the user performing the desired action, it is determined based on the biological information that the action is in accordance with the desired action and that there is no problem with the user performing it. Present alternative actions.
Specifically, in the presentation control process, as shown in FIG. 14, the biological information and body motion information of the user are detected by the biological information detection unit 221 and the body motion information detection unit 222 of the detection unit 22, and the information acquisition unit is detected. 275 stores each piece of information in the storage unit 26 (step S11).
Thereafter, it is determined whether the desired behavior is acquired by the desired behavior acquisition unit 276 (step S12).
If it is determined in step S12 that the desired action has not been acquired, the control unit 27 returns the process to step S11.
On the other hand, if it is determined in step S12 that the desired behavior has been acquired, the information acquisition unit 2753 obtains the positional information acquired by the reception unit 23 and the user information stored in the storage unit 26. Obtain (step S13).
And the control part 27 performs action presentation process S14.

FIG. 15 is a flowchart showing the action presentation process.
Based on the program stored in the storage unit 26, the control unit 27 executes an action presentation process S14 shown below. This action presentation process S14 is a process that presents an action suitable for the user and supports the action by the user.
In this behavior presentation process S14, as shown in FIG. 15, the behavior determination unit 277 first determines the desired behavior based on the detected biological information and body movement information, and the acquired user information. It is determined whether or not there is a problem with implementation (step S141).
If it is determined by the determination processing in step S141 that there is a problem with the user performing the desired behavior, the alternative behavior determination unit 278 displays the corresponding biological information in the determination table referenced by the behavior determination unit 277. By acquiring an alternative action corresponding to the above, an alternative action to be presented to the user is determined (step S142). On the other hand, if it is determined by the determination process in step S141 that there is no problem in the user performing the desired action, the process proceeds to the next process.

  If the behavior determination unit 277 determines that there is no problem even if the behavior determination unit 277 performs the desired behavior, the target information acquisition unit 279 acquires information about the enjoyment target (at least one of a service and an article) included in the desired behavior. In addition, when it is determined by the behavior determination unit 277 that there is no problem even if the desired behavior is performed, information (target information) regarding the enjoyment target included in the alternative behavior, the position information of the user, Is acquired (step S143).

Then, the target information acquisition unit 279 sets a search condition based on the enjoyment target, the position information indicating the current position of the user, and the user information, and the search condition is transmitted to the server via the communication unit 25. 3 (step S144).
Next, the target information acquisition unit 279 searches the server 3 for information corresponding to the search condition (information on the enjoyment target or information on a store that can provide the enjoyment target), and the information is acquired from the server 3. When received by the communication unit 25, the target information acquisition unit 279 acquires the received information (step S145).
Thereafter, it is determined whether or not the search result includes information (information of the handling store) corresponding to the search condition (step S146).

When it is determined in the determination process in step S146 that the acquired search result does not include information corresponding to the search condition, the process returns to step S144, and the target information acquisition unit 279 sets a wider search condition. Send to server.
On the other hand, when it is determined by the determination in step S146 that the search result includes the information corresponding to the search condition, the presentation information generation unit 280 acquires the determined alternative action and acquired. Based on the search result, presentation information indicating the proposal content to the user is generated (step S147).
Then, the notification control unit 272 causes the display unit 241 to display an information presentation screen (eg, the information presentation screens SC1 and SC3) including the presentation information generated by the presentation information generation unit 280 (step S148).
After the process of step S148, the action presentation process is terminated.
When the “MAP” button on the displayed information presentation screen is pressed, the notification control unit 272 displays the route guidance screen generated by the route generation unit 281 (for example, the route guidance screens SC2 and SC4) on the display unit 241. Display.

[Effect of the first embodiment]
The action support system 1 according to the present embodiment described above has the following effects.
When the behavior determination unit 277 determines whether or not there is a problem with the user performing the desired behavior desired by the user based on the biological information, and when it is determined that there is a problem, the user An alternative action that does not have a problem in performing is proposed based on the biological information, and the alternative action is presented.
Accordingly, it is possible to suppress the implementation of the desired behavior that has a problem for the user to implement, and to encourage the user to perform the above alternative behavior that is an alternative to the desired behavior. Therefore, the user can execute an action suitable for the state of the user by executing the presented alternative action.

  The alternative action is an action in accordance with the desired action while it is determined that there is no problem for the user to implement. According to this, since an alternative action in accordance with the user's desired action is presented, it is possible to facilitate the user to perform the alternative action, and resistance when the user implements the alternative action The feeling can be suppressed. Accordingly, it is possible to easily execute an action suitable for the state of the user.

  When there is a problem with the user performing the desired behavior, the above alternative behavior in which the enjoyment target is changed can be proposed. In other words, when there is a problem with the user performing the desired action, an alternative action along the desired action can be proposed by changing the enjoyment target. Therefore, the alternative action can be easily proposed and presented.

  Article information relating to an article included in the subject of the alternative action is acquired from the server 3, and the article information is presented. According to this, it is possible to present to the user article information relating to an article that is adapted to the user's condition and that is included in the alternative action enjoyment target changed from the desired action enjoyment target. Therefore, detailed information on the article can be presented to the user. Moreover, since it is not necessary for the action support apparatus 2 to hold article information regarding each article that may be presented, if the action support apparatus 2 has a storage unit that stores predetermined information, The storage capacity can be reduced.

  The location information regarding the place where the user can enjoy the alternative action is acquired from the server 3, and the acquired location information is presented to the user. According to this, a user can be made to grasp | ascertain the place which can enjoy the enjoyment object of alternative action. In addition, since the location information presented in this way is location information acquired based on the current position of the user, for example, it is possible to present to the user a provided location that is relatively close to the current position. Therefore, the user can easily perform the substitute action.

  Since at least one of the time required to move from the route generated by the route generation unit 281 or the current position to the place where the object can be enjoyed is presented, the presented alternative action can be more easily performed by the user. it can.

When the biometric information detection unit 221 detects blood pressure as biometric information and the user's desired action is “entering a hot spring”, if the user is in a hypertensive state, the hot spring is entered with a relatively low temperature. Can be presented as an alternative action. However, depending on the medical history of the user, even if the hot water temperature is low, the whole body bath may not be preferable.
On the other hand, when presenting an alternative action according to the user's desired action, an alternative action based on the user information is presented in addition to the biological information. According to this, for example, an alternative action of entering a hot spring with a half-body bath and an alternative action of entering a footbath can be presented to a user who does not prefer a whole body bath. Therefore, it is possible to present an action that is more suitable for the state of the user.

  A value by which the detected blood glucose level of the user is classified as hyperglycemia when the biological information detection unit 221 detects the blood glucose level as the biological information and the desired behavior of the user is “eating ice cream” In this case, instead of the desired action, an alternative action “drink a sports drink with less sugar than ice cream” can be presented. Therefore, even when the user is not aware of the abnormality of the body, an alternative action suitable for the body can be presented, and an action to make the user's state good can be promoted.

  There is a problem in that the user performs the desired behavior by the behavior determination unit 277 based on not only the biological information detected by the biological information detection unit 221 but also the body motion information detected by the body motion information detection unit 222. It is determined whether or not. According to this, since the state of the user can be detected and grasped more appropriately, whether or not there is a problem in the user's implementation of the desired behavior, and thus whether or not an alternative behavior needs to be proposed and presented Can be determined more appropriately.

  The alternative action determining unit 278 determines an alternative action along the desired action based on a plurality of determination tables stored in the storage unit 26. According to this, the presentation behavior presented on the display unit 241 by the control of the notification control unit 272 can be determined accurately and easily. Therefore, in addition to simplifying the processing related to the proposal and determination of the alternative action, it is possible to reliably present an alternative action suitable for the user.

  The biometric information detection unit 221 detects the user's pulse wave, heart rate, blood pressure, blood glucose level, sweating amount, and blood alcohol concentration as biometric information, and uses the biometric information detection unit 221 based on the biometric information by the behavior determination unit 277. It can be determined in detail and appropriately whether or not there is a problem with the person performing the desired action.
