Description

  The present invention relates to an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program.

  When there is a lot of stress or when life is irregular, the balance between sympathetic nerve activity and parasympathetic nerve activity is lost, and the efficiency of work and learning is reduced, and poor physical condition occurs. Therefore, it is necessary to live a life so that the activity of the sympathetic nerve and the activity of the parasympathetic nerve can be balanced.

  For example, Patent Document 1 describes that the degree of stress is determined based on a pulse wave, and action advice such as stress relief and stress induction is displayed.

  For example, Patent Document 2 describes that the evaluation of the stiff shoulder is performed based on the result of analyzing the activity state of the autonomic nerve.

  For example, Patent Document 3 describes that the psychosomatic state is evaluated based on the activity level of the sympathetic nerve and the activity level of the parasympathetic nerve.

  For example, Patent Document 4 describes that an autonomic nerve function of a vehicle occupant is diagnosed and a scent or massage is provided to the occupant according to the result.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In all the drawings, the same reference numerals are given to the same components, and the description will be omitted as appropriate.

  In the following description, each component of the information processing apparatus 10, such as the acquisition unit 130, the control unit 190, the output unit 110, the selection unit 150, and the storage unit 170, is not a hardware unit configuration but a functional unit block. Is shown. Each component of the information processing apparatus 10 is an arbitrary computer CPU, memory, a program loaded in the memory, a storage medium such as a hard disk for storing the program, a network connection interface, or any other hardware and software. Realized by a combination of There are various modifications of the implementation method and apparatus.

  FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a functional configuration of the information processing apparatus 10 according to the embodiment. The information processing apparatus 10 according to the embodiment includes an acquisition unit 130, an output unit 110, and a control unit 190. The acquisition unit 130 acquires a first activity level indicating the activity level of the user's sympathetic nerve and parasympathetic nerve. The output unit 110 prompts one action (hereinafter also referred to as “first recommended action”) selected from the reference information including a plurality of pieces of information indicating actions to be taken by the user using the first activity level. The first behavior information is output. And the control part 190 updates reference information based on the 2nd activity level which shows the activity level after a user takes one action, and a 1st activity level.

  In the present embodiment, the output unit 110 outputs second action information for prompting an action different from the first recommended action based on the second activity level and the reference information.

  In the example shown in the figure, the information processing apparatus 10 further includes a measurement unit 120, a storage unit 170, and a selection unit 150. However, the storage unit 170 may be a storage device provided in a memory or server provided separately from the information processing device 10. The measurement unit 120 may be a measurement unit provided separately from the information processing apparatus 10. For example, the information processing apparatus 10 may be a mobile communication terminal such as a mobile phone or a smartphone, a mobile game machine, or a wristwatch type terminal apparatus. Details will be described below.

  Autonomic nerves include sympathetic nerves and parasympathetic nerves. The sympathetic nerves are particularly active when they are active, when they are nervous, when they are stressed, and so on. On the other hand, the parasympathetic nerve is active when resting, resting, relaxing, and the like. When the mind and body are healthy, the activity of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve is balanced.

  For example, excessive stress and irregular lifestyles can disrupt the balance of the autonomic nerves and cause the body to malfunction. Therefore, it is important to live daily life so as not to disturb the balance of the autonomic nerves. However, it is difficult to objectively understand how to balance one's condition and autonomic nerves. Also, although there is general information about how to balance autonomic nerves, effective methods vary from individual to individual.

  In the information processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment, reference information used to output an action to be taken to balance the autonomic nerve is updated based on the reaction of the autonomic nerve of each user. As a result, it is possible to present a more effective action for the user.

  The functional configuration of the information processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment will be described in detail below. The measurement unit 120 according to the present embodiment performs measurement necessary for obtaining an activity level indicating the activity level of the user's sympathetic nerve and parasympathetic nerve. Below, although the measurement part 120 demonstrates the example which measures a user's pulse, it is not limited to this.

  The measuring unit 120 is realized by, for example, a wristwatch-type pulse measuring terminal that can be worn on the wrist. The measurement unit 120 measures the user's pulse. The measurement unit 120 processes the measured pulse as follows, and generates information indicating the activity level indicating the activity level of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve.

  First, heart rate variability time series data is generated from data indicating the measured pulse. The heart rate variability time series data is data indicating fluctuations in heart rate, for example, represented by a graph with the horizontal axis representing time and the vertical axis representing the heartbeat interval. Next, the power spectrum is generated from the heart rate variability time series data. An example of a method for calculating the power spectrum is a method using an autoregressive model.

  Next, an LF value and an HF value are calculated from the power spectrum. The LF value is an integral value of the intensity from 0.05 Hz to 0.15 Hz of the power spectrum. The HF value is an integral value of the intensity from 0.15 Hz to 0.40 Hz of the power spectrum. High frequency components from 0.15 Hz to 0.40 Hz correspond to respiratory fluctuations and appear when the parasympathetic nerve is activated. On the other hand, low frequency components from 0.05 Hz to 0.15 Hz correspond to blood pressure fluctuations and appear both when the sympathetic nerve is activated and when the parasympathetic nerve is activated. Therefore, the ratio of the LF value and the HF value obtained in this way can be used as the activity level indicating the activity level of the user's sympathetic nerve and parasympathetic nerve.

  In the present embodiment, the activity level is, for example, an instantaneous value of the activity ratio between the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve. Specifically, the activity ratio between the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve is a value of LF / HF obtained by dividing the LF value by the HF value. Then, an LF / HF value obtained from a result of measuring the pulse for a predetermined short time (for example, 30 seconds) is set as an instantaneous value. The activity level may include only an instantaneous value of the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve, or may further include other information.

  The acquisition unit 130 acquires information indicating the activity level from the measurement unit 120. The timing at which the acquisition unit 130 acquires information indicating the activity level is controlled by the control unit 190, for example.

  Reference information is stored in the storage unit 170 in advance. The reference information includes a plurality of pieces of information indicating actions to be taken by the user.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating the content of the reference information. The reference information according to the present embodiment includes activity level-specific information in which two or more actions and priority levels for each action are associated with each other according to the activity level. Two or more actions included in one activity level information are different from each other. The priority may be a priority order for taking an action or may be an index indicating the priority. For example, the higher the index indicating priority, the higher the priority. In addition, when the same action is included in two or more activity level information, the priority of the action may be different for each activity level information.

  The action included in the activity-specific information is an action for increasing parasympathetic nerve activity, an action for increasing sympathetic nerve activity, or an action of living as it is. Actions to increase sympathetic nerve activity are not particularly limited, but include drinking a cup of water in the morning to wake up the gastrointestinal tract, stretching, hitting light and outside air, taking sweets, taking deep breaths, and so on. Actions to increase parasympathetic activity are not particularly limited, but take slow nasal breathing, listen to your favorite music, exercise your neck flexibly, drink water, laugh at comics, comics and books It is. In addition, the action included in the information according to activity level may be a combination of two or more of these actions. In that case, two or more actions are different from each other means that the number of actions to be combined is different or at least one action in the combination is different. Here, for example, an effective time range may be associated with an action that is effective only in a specific time range, such as “drink a cup of water in the morning to wake up the gastrointestinal tract”.

  Reference information in an initial state before each user uses the information processing apparatus 10 for the first time is prepared based on, for example, a survey result of 100 people. Specifically, the activity balance of the subject's autonomic nerve when each action is performed in the state of each activity level is investigated. Then, as an average of survey subjects, higher priority is given to actions that have a higher effect of making the balance of autonomic nerves appropriate. Alternatively, an index proportional to the height of the effect can be determined.

  The selection unit 150 reads reference information from the storage unit 170. Then, using the activity level acquired by the acquisition unit 130, one action that the user should take is selected from the reference information. Here, for an action associated with an effective time range such as “drink a cup of water in the morning to wake up the gastrointestinal tract”, whether the time at which the selection unit 150 selects is within that time range. May be excluded from the selection target if it is not within the time range.

  The output unit 110 outputs action information for prompting the action selected by the selection unit 150. For example, the output unit 110 outputs information for causing the monitor to display an action, for example, display data as action information. When the selection unit 150 selects an action to listen to music or other sounds, the output unit 110 outputs information for causing a speaker (not shown) to output sound, for example, sound data as action information. May be. Moreover, when the selection part 150 selects the action which smells a scent, the output part 110 may output the information for generating a scent to a scent generator as action information. Moreover, the output part 110 may output the information for controlling the light of a room as behavior information, or may output the information for giving a vibration to a user. The monitor, the speaker, the scent generating device, and the like may be external devices provided separately from the information processing device 10. The external device can be controlled by wired or wireless communication with the information processing apparatus 10.

  The control unit 190 updates the reference information based on the second activity level indicating the activity level after the user takes the action selected by the selection unit 150 and the first activity level before taking the action. As described above, the reference information is updated based on the reaction of the user's autonomic nerve in the case of taking the action, so that each individual can be presented with the optimum action having the effect of adjusting the autonomic nerve.

  FIG. 3 is a flowchart of the information processing method according to the present embodiment. The information processing method according to the present embodiment is realized by the information processing apparatus 10 described above.

  The information processing method according to the present embodiment includes an acquisition step S10, an output step S12, and a control step S20. In acquisition step S10, a first activity level indicating the activity level of the user's sympathetic nerve and parasympathetic nerve is acquired. In the output step S12, the first action information for promoting the first recommended action selected from the reference information including a plurality of pieces of information indicating the action to be taken by the user using the first activity level is output. In control step S20, the reference information is updated based on the second activity level indicating the activity level after the user takes the first recommended action and the first activity level. Details will be described below.

  First, the acquisition unit 130 acquires a first activity level in response to a predetermined first operation (an operation that serves as a trigger for acquiring the first activity level) on the information processing apparatus 10 by the user (acquisition step S10). Here, the measurement by the measurement unit 120 may be performed prior to the first operation, or may be started after the first operation is performed.

  When the measurement is performed prior to the first operation, for example, the measurement unit 120 starts the measurement at the same time as turning on the power of the information processing apparatus 10 or according to an operation serving as a trigger for starting the measurement. Then, the value of LF / HF obtained from the measurement results from the time point before the first operation to a predetermined short time (for example, 30 seconds) to the time point when the first operation is performed is acquired as the first activity level 130. Get. The activity generated by the measurement unit 120 may be stored once in the storage unit 170, and the acquisition unit 130 may read and acquire the activity. In this case, for example, the measurement unit 120 repeatedly generates an activity level every predetermined short time and stores it in the storage unit 170, and the acquisition unit 130 obtains the latest activity level at the time when the first operation is performed. It can be acquired as one activity level.

  On the other hand, when measurement is started after the first operation is performed, the measurement unit 120 starts measurement based on a command signal from the acquisition unit 130. And the acquisition part 130 acquires the value of LF / HF obtained from the result of having measured for the predetermined time as 1st activity.

  Further, based on the acquired first activity level, the output unit 110 may output information for causing the display unit to display the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve at that time.

  Next, the selection unit 150 reads the reference information from the storage unit 170 and selects activity level-specific information corresponding to the activity level indicated by the first activity level acquired by the acquisition unit 130. And the action with the highest priority is selected as the first recommended action among the actions included in the selected information according to the degree of activity.

  An example in which the reference information is the content shown in FIG. 2 and the first activity level indicates the activity level that the sympathetic nerve is dominant will be described in detail. The selection unit 150 selects activity-specific information corresponding to “sympathetic nerve is dominant” from the reference information. Further, the selection unit 150 selects the “neck of the neck” having the highest priority among the two or more actions included in the information according to the degree of activity (“flexible gymnastics of the neck” and “drink water” in the example of the figure). Select the action “Do flexible exercises”.

  In FIG. 2, for convenience, the activity levels are described as “sympathetic nerve is dominant”, “parasympathetic nerve is dominant”, and “optimal balance”, but the LF / HF values are respectively represented as instantaneous value ranges. Can be associated. Specifically, the range of the instantaneous value of LF / HF is divided, and it can be considered that “sympathetic nerve is dominant”, “optimal balance”, and “parasympathetic nerve is dominant” in descending order. Note that the activity level classification is not limited to these three classifications, and for example, four or more classifications including “parasympathetic nerve is slightly dominant”, “sympathetic nerve is slightly dominant”, and the like may be provided.

  Returning to FIG. 3, the output unit 110 then outputs information for prompting the first recommended action selected by the selection unit 150 as the first action information (step S <b> 12). In this way, the output unit 110 outputs, as the first action information, information for prompting the action having the highest priority among the two or more actions corresponding to the activity degree indicated by the first activity degree in the reference information. Will be. Then, the user takes the first recommended action based on the first action information.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of an image displayed by the display unit 32 in the present embodiment. In the example of this figure, the action most suitable for the present user is shown among the training known in order to raise parasympathetic nerve. In addition, although this figure represents the example in which another action is shown in addition to the first recommended action, only the first recommended action may be displayed on the display unit 32.

  Returning to FIG. 3, the acquisition unit 130 then acquires the second activity level indicating the activity level after the user takes the first recommended action from the measurement unit 120 (step S <b> 14). Specifically, the acquisition unit 130 acquires the second activity level in response to a predetermined second operation (an operation that serves as a trigger for acquiring the second activity level) on the information processing apparatus 10 by the user. In addition, the acquisition unit 130 may acquire the second activity level after a predetermined time has elapsed since the output unit 110 outputs the first behavior information. The method by which the acquisition unit 130 acquires the second activity level can be the same as the method for acquiring the first activity level described above. Further, based on the acquired second activity level, the output unit 110 may output information for causing the display unit to display the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve at that time.

  Next, the control unit 190 performs the following processing. First, the control unit 190 determines whether or not the second activity level satisfies a predetermined criterion (step S16). For example, when the instantaneous value of LF / HF included in the second activity level is within a predetermined range, it is determined that the criterion is satisfied. On the other hand, when the instantaneous value of LF / HF is outside the predetermined range, it is determined that the criterion is not satisfied. As the reference for the second activity level, for example, the control unit 190 can read and use information stored in the storage unit 170 in advance. Here, the predetermined range can be matched with a range corresponding to “appropriate balance” of the reference information, for example.

  When the second activity level satisfies a predetermined criterion (Yes in step S16), the information processing apparatus 10 ends the operation because the autonomic nerve is balanced. Before the operation is finished, the output unit 110 may output information that causes the display unit to display “autonomic nerves are balanced” or the like. Thus, the user can be given a sense of security by outputting to the user that the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve is appropriate.

  When the second activity level does not satisfy the predetermined standard (No in step S16), the autonomic nerve is not balanced even if the first recommended action is performed. In this case, the control unit 190 further determines whether or not the relationship between the first activity level and the second activity level satisfies a predetermined criterion. Specifically, the control unit 190 determines whether or not the difference between the first activity level and the second activity level satisfies a predetermined criterion. For example, the control unit 190 calculates the difference between the instantaneous value of LF / HF included in the first activity level and the instantaneous value of LF / HF included in the second activity level, and the magnitude relationship between the two instantaneous values is determined in advance. If the calculated difference magnitude is equal to or greater than a predetermined reference value, it is determined that the reference is satisfied, and otherwise, it is determined that the reference is not satisfied (step S18). As a reference for the difference between the first activity level and the second activity level, for example, the control unit 190 can read and use information stored in advance in the storage unit 170 for each activity level indicated by the first activity level.

  If the difference between the first activity level and the second activity level does not satisfy a predetermined standard (No in step S18), it can be said that the effect of the first recommended action has not been recognized so much. Therefore, the control unit 190 updates the reference information (control step S20). Specifically, the control unit 190 updates the reference information so as to lower the priority of the first recommended action in the activity-specific information for which the first recommended action is selected. When the priority is the priority order, the update for lowering the priority is, for example, an update for lowering the priority order of the first recommended action by a predetermined order. When the priority is an exponent, the update that lowers the priority is, for example, an update that lowers the exponent by a predetermined number. Specifically, a value obtained by subtracting a predetermined value from the index before update is set as the index after update. This lowers the priority. The predetermined value can be determined in advance and stored in the storage unit 170. In this case, the priority does not necessarily need to be changed by one update.

  Thereafter, the process continues to return to step S12, the selection unit 150 selects the second recommended action from the reference information, and the output unit 110 outputs the second action information for prompting the second recommended action. Then, the user takes the second recommended action based on the second action information. A method for selecting the second recommended action will be described later.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating the content of the reference information after being updated. In the activity level information corresponding to the first activity level (in the example of this figure, “sympathetic nerve is dominant”), the priority of each action is changed.

  On the other hand, when the difference between the first activity level and the second activity level satisfies a predetermined standard (Yes in step S18), the autonomic nerve is not balanced, but the effect of the first recommended action is recognized to some extent. It can be said that. Therefore, the control unit 190 does not rewrite the reference information. Subsequently, the process returns to step S12, the selection unit 150 selects the second recommended action from the reference information, and the output unit 110 outputs the second action information for prompting the second recommended action.

  In addition, after the information processing apparatus 10 finishes the process, when the user performs the first operation to operate the information processing apparatus 10, the updated reference information can be used.

  An example of a method by which the selection unit 150 selects the second recommended action will be described below. In this example, the selection unit 150 selects one of two or more actions corresponding to the activity level indicated by the second activity level as the second recommended action in the reference information. Specifically, the selection unit 150 reads the reference information from the storage unit 170, and selects activity level-specific information corresponding to the activity level indicated by the second activity level. And the action with the highest priority is selected as the second recommended action among the actions included in the selected activity level information. In addition, when the action with the highest priority is the same as the first recommended action, the selection unit 150 selects the action with the second highest priority as the second recommended action among the actions included in the selected activity level information. You may choose.

  Thus, the output unit 110 outputs, in the reference information, information for prompting one of two or more actions corresponding to the activity level indicated by the second activity level as the second activity information. Then, the process is repeated until the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve becomes appropriate. In the repetition of processing, the latest activity level is regarded as the second activity level, and the activity level acquired immediately before is regarded as the first activity level, and the same processing as described above can be performed.

  Another example of how the selection unit 150 selects the second recommended action will be described below. In this example, the selection unit 150 selects, as the second recommended action, an action having the second highest priority after the first recommended action among two or more actions corresponding to the activity level indicated by the first activity level. Specifically, the selection unit 150 reads the reference information from the storage unit 170, and selects activity level information corresponding to the activity level indicated by the first activity level. Then, of the actions included in the selected activity level information, the action having the second highest priority after the first recommended action is selected as the second recommended action.

  In this way, the output unit 110 uses the second action as information for prompting the action having the second highest priority after the first recommended action among the two or more actions corresponding to the activity degree indicated by the first activity degree in the reference information. It will be output as information. Then, the process is repeated until the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve becomes appropriate. In the repetition of processing, the latest activity level is regarded as the second activity level, and the activity level acquired immediately before is regarded as the first activity level, and the same processing as described above can be performed.

  In this example, when the priority of the first recommended action is lower than when the first recommended action is selected due to the update of the reference information, it is included in the selected activity level information. Of the actions, the action with the highest priority may be selected again as the second recommended action.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the control unit 190 updates the reference information based on the second activity level indicating the activity level after the user takes one action and the first activity level. Therefore, a more effective action can be presented as an action to be taken in order to optimize the user's autonomic balance.

Example 1
FIG. 6 is a flowchart of the information processing method according to the first embodiment. The information processing apparatus 10 and the information processing method according to the present embodiment are the same as the information processing apparatus 10 and the information processing method according to the embodiment except for the points described below.

  In this embodiment, after the user's autonomic nerve balance becomes appropriate, the autonomic nerve balance is continuously monitored every predetermined time. Then, when the balance is lost, the action to be taken by the user is shown again, and optimization is achieved.

  Specifically, in this embodiment, when it is determined in step S16 that the second activity level satisfies a predetermined criterion (Yes in step S16), the output unit 110 displays the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve. Is output to indicate to the user that the control is appropriate, and the control unit 190 continues the following processing.

  That is, the control unit 190 first determines whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed since the previous activity level was acquired (step S30). For example, the control unit 190 can read and use the predetermined time that is input to the information processing apparatus 10 by the user and stored in the storage unit 170.

  When it is determined that the predetermined time has elapsed, for example, an acquisition command signal is issued from the acquisition unit 130 to the measurement unit 120, and the acquisition unit 130 acquires the third activity level from the measurement unit 120 (step S32). . Here, the measurement by the measurement unit 120 may be continuously performed after the second activity level is acquired, or may be started based on the command signal.

  When the measurement is continuously performed, for example, the value of LF / HF obtained from the measurement result from the time point before a predetermined short time (for example, 30 seconds) when the command signal is output to the time point when the command signal is output is obtained. The acquisition unit 130 acquires the third activity level. The activity generated by the measurement unit 120 may be stored once in the storage unit 170, and the acquisition unit 130 may read and acquire the activity. In this case, for example, the measurement unit 120 repeatedly generates an activity degree every predetermined short time and stores it in the storage unit 170, and the latest activity at the time when the acquisition unit 130 determines that the predetermined time has elapsed. The degree can be acquired as the first activity degree.

  On the other hand, when the measurement is started based on the command signal, the acquisition unit 130 acquires the LF / HF value obtained from the measurement result for a predetermined time after the start of the measurement as the third activity.

  Here, based on the acquired third activity level, the output unit 110 may output information for causing the display unit to display the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve at that time.

  Next, the control unit 190 determines whether or not the third activity level satisfies a predetermined criterion (step S34). For example, when the instantaneous value of LF / HF included in the third activity is within a predetermined range, it is determined that the criterion is satisfied. On the other hand, when the instantaneous value of LF / HF is outside the predetermined range, it is determined that the criterion is not satisfied. As a reference for the third activity level, for example, the control unit 190 can read and use information stored in the storage unit 170 in advance. Here, the predetermined range can be made to coincide with the reference for the second activity level in step S16, for example.

  When the third activity level satisfies a predetermined criterion (Yes in step S34), since the autonomic nerve is in a balanced state, the behavior information is not output and the process returns to step S30, and the information processing apparatus 10 Repeat the process. In addition, before returning to step S30, the output unit 110 may output information that causes the display unit to display “autonomic nerves are balanced” or the like. Thus, the user can be given a sense of security by outputting to the user that the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve is appropriate.

  When the third activity level does not satisfy the predetermined standard (No in step S34), it can be said that the autonomic nerve is not balanced over time. In this case, the selection unit 150 reads the reference information from the storage unit 170, and selects activity-specific information corresponding to the activity level indicated by the third activity level. And the action with the highest priority is selected as the third recommended action among the actions included in the selected activity level information. Next, the output unit 110 outputs information for prompting the third recommended action selected by the selection unit 150 as the third action information (step S36). Then, the user takes the third recommended action based on the third action information.

  Next, the process returns to step S32, and the process is repeated until the activity level satisfies the standard. In addition, when step S36 is repeatedly performed and action information is output, the recommended action may be selected based on the latest activity degree as described in the embodiment, or the third acquired first. You may select in order of priority from the information according to activity level corresponding to activity level.

  The processing of the information processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment ends when, for example, the user turns off the operation of the information processing apparatus 10.

  Note that the determination criterion for the second activity level may be updated based on the progress after the second activity level satisfies the criterion. For example, when the time until the third activity level does not satisfy the standard is shorter than a predetermined standard time, the standard for the second activity level stored in the storage unit 170 may be updated. At this time, the second activity level is updated so as to narrow the range satisfying the standard. By doing so, a standard suitable for each individual is used, and the optimum balance can be maintained for a long time.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the acquisition unit 130 acquires the third activity level from the measurement unit 120 when a predetermined time has elapsed since the previous activity level was acquired. When the third activity level does not satisfy the predetermined standard, the output unit 110 outputs the third action information for promoting the third recommended action selected from the reference information using the third activity level. To do. Therefore, when the autonomic nerve balance is lost, it can be detected and an action for balancing can be presented to the user again.

(Example 2)
The information processing apparatus 10 and the information processing method according to the present embodiment are the same as the information processing apparatus 10 and the information processing method according to the embodiment except for the points described below. Further, the method of the present embodiment can also be applied to the method of the first embodiment.

  In the present embodiment, the first activity level and the second activity level include an average value for 24 hours of the activity ratio between the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve.

  It is known that the activity of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve is important not only from the instantaneous value but also from the balance seen throughout the day. Here, it is said that the activity ratio of sympathetic nerve and parasympathetic nerve in 24 hours is preferably 1.5: 1. Therefore, for example, when the 24-hour average of the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve is 1.5 or more, the sympathetic nerve can be regarded as dominant.

  Further, when the measurement unit 120 is a wearable terminal that can be worn on the wrist, for example, the measurement unit 120 can continuously measure the activity level of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve in the daily life of the user. In the present embodiment, the action to be taken can be presented to the user based on the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve throughout the day. This will be described in detail below.

In this embodiment, the activity level includes an average value (hereinafter, simply referred to as “average value”) of the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve for 24 hours. That is, the activity level may include only the average value, and the first activity level and the second activity level may further include an instantaneous value of the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve. Specifically, the average value is an average value of LF / HF for 24 hours. Further, the activity may include a ratio T _LF / T _HF between a time T _{LF in} which the sympathetic nerve is dominant and a time T _{HF in} which the parasympathetic nerve is dominant instead of the average value of LF / HF for 24 hours. Even in that case, the information processing apparatus 10 can similarly process the following method using T _LF / T _HF instead of the average value of LF / HF for 24 hours.

  In this embodiment, the information processing apparatus 10 performs the following processing.

  The information processing method according to the present embodiment can be described with the same flowchart as FIG. In the present embodiment, the user wears a measurement terminal in advance before the first operation described above, and measures the activity ratio between the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve for 24 hours or more. Then, the acquisition unit 130 acquires the first activity level (step S10).

  Next, the selection unit 150 selects the first recommended action from the reference information using the first activity level.

  FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating the contents of the reference information according to the present embodiment. In the example of this figure, the reference information includes information by activity level in which a plurality of actions are associated with priorities for each action for each average value as the activity level. In the example of this figure, the activity level may include at least only the average value. In step S <b> 12, the selection unit 150 selects the action with the highest priority as the first recommended action among the information according to the degree of activity corresponding to the magnitude of the average value included in the first activity degree. Then, the output unit 110 outputs information for prompting the first recommended action as the first action information.

  8, 9, 10, and 11 are diagrams illustrating examples of images displayed on the display unit 32 in the present embodiment. Based on the first behavior information output from the output unit 110, the display unit 32 displays, for example, the average value of the activity ratio between the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve for 24 hours, the activity level of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve for 24 hours And the actions to be taken by the user are displayed. Note that, as in the example of FIG. 11, first, an average value for 24 hours, a transition of the activity level, and an icon for displaying an action to be taken by the user may be displayed. In this case, information for prompting the first recommended action is output when an operation for displaying the action to be taken by the user is performed.

  Returning to FIG. 3, in this embodiment, step S14 is performed as in the embodiment. In step S <b> 16, the control unit 190 determines whether the average value included in the second activity level satisfies a predetermined criterion. In step S18, the control unit 190 determines whether the relationship between the average value included in the first activity level and the average value included in the second activity level satisfies a predetermined criterion. Other processes are the same as those of the embodiment.

  A modification of the present embodiment will be described below. In this modification, the activity level includes an instantaneous value of the activity ratio between the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve and an average value of the activity ratio between the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve.

  FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating the content of the reference information according to this modification. In the example of this figure, the reference information includes information according to activity level in which a plurality of actions and priorities for each action are associated with each other for each combination of the average value and the instantaneous value as the activity level. In the example of this figure, in step S12, the selection unit 150 selects the action with the highest priority among the information according to the degree of activity corresponding to the average value and the magnitude of the instantaneous value included in the first activity level. Select as an action. Then, the output unit 110 outputs information for prompting the first recommended action as the first action information.

  13 and 14 are diagrams illustrating examples of images displayed on the display unit 32 in the present modification. Based on the first behavior information output from the output unit 110, the display unit 32, for example, averages the activity ratio of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves for 24 hours, current activity ratio based on instantaneous values, The transition of the activity level between the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve, the current position, and the action to be taken by the user are displayed. Note that, as in the example of FIG. 14, first, an icon for displaying an average value for 24 hours, a transition in activity level, and an action to be taken by the user may be displayed. In this case, information for prompting the first recommended action is output when an operation for displaying the action to be taken by the user is performed.

  And in this modification, step S14 is performed similarly to the embodiment. In step S <b> 16, the control unit 190 determines whether the average value included in the second activity level satisfies a predetermined criterion. In step S18, the control unit 190 determines whether the difference between the average value included in the first activity level and the average value included in the second activity level satisfies a predetermined criterion. Other processes are the same as those of the embodiment.

  Note that in step S16, the control unit 190 may determine that the second activity does not satisfy the criterion even if the average value satisfies the criterion and the instantaneous value does not satisfy the predetermined criterion. By doing so, even when the average value is normal, for example, the action to be taken by the user can be presented when the sympathetic nerve activity is abnormally active based on the instantaneous value.

  In this example, only when there is no measurement data for 24 hours, such as when the user uses the information processing apparatus 10 for the first time, the instantaneous value of the activity ratio between the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve is used. May be processed in a manner.

  In this embodiment, the activity level may include an average value of different times such as 12 hours instead of the average value of the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve for 24 hours. The activity level may include an average value for an activity ratio only while the user is awake. Even in this case, the same processing can be performed using these average values instead of the 24-hour average values. In this case, each criterion can be changed as appropriate.

  In step S16 of the present embodiment, determination may be performed using the average value of HF / (LF + HF) in addition to the average value of LF / HF. LF / HF increases when sympathetic nerve activity is active, and HF / (LF + HF) increases when parasympathetic activity is active. Specifically, for example, when the average value of LF / HF and the average value of HF / (LF + HF) are both within the respective reference ranges, the degree of activity can be regarded as “optimal balance”. Further, when the average value of LF / HF is larger than the upper limit of the reference range and the average value of HF / (LF + HF) is smaller than the lower limit of the reference range, it can be regarded that “sympathetic nerve is dominant”. If none of the above is true, it can be regarded that “the parasympathetic nerve is dominant”. In step S16, when both the average value of LF / HF and the average value of HF / (LF + HF) are within the respective reference ranges, it can be determined that the second activity level satisfies the standard (Yes in step S16).

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the first activity level and the second activity level include an average value for 24 hours of the activity ratio between the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve. Therefore, the action to be taken can be presented to the user based on the activity ratio of the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve throughout the day.

(Example 3)
The information processing apparatus 10 and the information processing method according to the present embodiment are the same as the information processing apparatus 10 and the information processing method according to the embodiment except for the points described below. Further, the method of this embodiment can be applied to the methods of Embodiments 1 and 2.

  The reference information according to the present embodiment includes information on the degree of activity for each time. And the output part 110 outputs the information for encouraging the action selected with reference to the information according to activity degree of the time corresponding to the time when the 1st activity degree was acquired in reference information as 1st action information To do. Details will be described below.

  FIG. 15 is a diagram illustrating the content of reference information according to the present embodiment. This figure shows an example in which the method of the present embodiment is applied to a modification of the second embodiment. In the example of this figure, the reference information includes time-specific information associated with the time. Each time information includes a set of activity level information. In the example of this figure, in step S12, the selection unit 150 first reads time-specific information corresponding to the time when the first activity level is acquired by the acquisition unit 130 from the reference information. Then, the selection unit 150 selects activity level information corresponding to the average value and the instantaneous value included in the first activity level from the activity level information included in the read time information. The selection unit 150 further selects the first recommended action as described above from the selected activity-specific information. The output unit 110 outputs information for prompting the first recommended action as the first action information. Note that the time may vary. That is, each time may be a time zone defined with a width such as “6 to 9 o'clock” or a time classified into “morning”, “daytime”, “night”, and the like. The reference information in the initial state can be prepared based on the survey results of 100 people, for example, as in the embodiment.

  For each user, the autonomic response varies depending on the time and season. In the present embodiment, the optimum autonomic balance can be more effectively realized by presenting the optimum action to the user based on the time.

  A modification of the present embodiment will be described below.

  FIG. 16 is a diagram illustrating the contents of the reference information according to this modification. In the example of this figure, the reference information includes seasonal information associated with the season. The season-specific information includes a set of time-specific information described above. In the example of this figure, in step S12, the selection unit 150 first selects seasonal information corresponding to the season in which the first activity level is acquired by the acquisition unit 130 from the reference information. Then, as described above, the first recommended action is selected from the seasonal information. The output unit 110 outputs information for prompting the first recommended action as the first action information. Here, the season is determined according to the date on which the activity level is acquired. The method is not particularly limited, but for example in Japan, March to May can be regarded as spring, June to August as summer, September to November as autumn, and December to February as winter. . The reference information may include monthly information associated with the month instead of the seasonal information. In that case, the same processing as in this modification can be performed.

  In this modification, the optimum behavior is further presented to the user based on the season. Therefore, the optimal autonomic nerve balance can be realized more effectively.

  As described above, in this embodiment, the reference information includes information on the degree of activity for each time. And the output part 110 outputs the information for encouraging the action selected with reference to the information according to activity degree of the time corresponding to the time when the 1st activity degree was acquired in reference information as 1st action information To do. Therefore, it is possible to present an action that can more effectively realize the optimal autonomic balance for the user at that time.

Example 4
The information processing apparatus 10 and the information processing method according to the present embodiment are the same as the information processing apparatus 10 and the information processing method according to the embodiment except for the points described below. Further, the method of this embodiment can be applied to the methods of Embodiments 1 to 3.

  In the present embodiment, in the activity level information, the expected subsequent activity level is further associated with each activity level. Then, the output unit 110 further outputs information indicating the expected degree of subsequent activity based on the first activity level and the time when the first activity level is acquired. Details will be described below.

  FIG. 17 is a diagram illustrating the content of the reference information according to the present embodiment. This figure shows an example in which the method of the present embodiment is applied to a modification of the third embodiment. In the example of this figure, each activity level-specific information includes an activity level, two or more actions, a priority for each action, and an expected subsequent activity level. The reference information in the initial state can be prepared based on the survey results of 100 people, for example, as in the embodiment. The expected degree of subsequent activity can be obtained statistically based on past data based on a change in the degree of activity.

  In step S <b> 12 of this example, the selection unit 150 selects activity level-specific information based on the first activity level from the reference information by the above-described embodiment or the method of each example. Then, in addition to the first recommended action, the selection unit 150 reads an expected degree of subsequent activity included in the activity-specific information. Then, the output unit 110 outputs information indicating the expected degree of subsequent activity, for example, display data, in addition to information for prompting the first recommended action.

  FIG. 18 is a diagram illustrating an example of an image displayed by the display unit 32 in the present embodiment. Based on the information output from the output unit 110, the display unit 32 displays an expected degree of subsequent activity such as “the parasympathetic nerve will become dominant from now on”.

  Note that the degree of subsequent activity included in the reference information may be updated based on the data of the activity transition of each user's sympathetic nerve and parasympathetic nerve measured by the measurement unit 120.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the activity level information further correlates the expected subsequent activity level for each activity level. Then, the output unit 110 further outputs information indicating the expected degree of subsequent activity based on the first activity level and the time when the first activity level is acquired. Therefore, the user can live in consideration of the subsequent autonomic nerve activity prediction. In addition, based on the subsequent prediction, an action to be taken by the user is presented.

(Example 5)
FIG. 19 is a diagram illustrating a usage method of the information processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment, together with a usage environment thereof. In the present embodiment, the plurality of information processing apparatuses 10 are connected to the same server 50 via the communication network 40. The plurality of information processing apparatuses 10 are used by different users, and the use result of the information processing apparatus 10 is transmitted to the server 50.

  The server 50 generates statistical data using the transmitted data. This statistical data is transmitted to the information processing apparatus 10 via the communication network 40. The information processing apparatus 10 receives statistical data from the server 50. The information processing apparatus 10 displays this statistical data together with the usage result of the user of the information processing apparatus 10. The statistical data includes, for example, the amount of change in the activity ratio between the sympathetic nerve and the parasympathetic nerve when each user takes a specific action, the ranking of actions that are effective for activating the sympathetic or parasympathetic nerve, and a plurality of these The average information of users is included. The user of the information processing apparatus 10 can easily grasp what tendency the activity of his / her autonomic nerve has compared with other people by looking at the statistical data. In addition, it is possible to know the actions and combinations of actions effective for activating the sympathetic nerve or the parasympathetic nerve by looking at the information of other users. Furthermore, when the activity tendency of the autonomic nerve of the user who uses the information processing apparatus 10 is significantly different from the average of a plurality of users, it may be determined as abnormal and a warning may be displayed.

  As described above, according to this embodiment, the information processing apparatus 10 displays statistical data of a plurality of users. As a result, the user can easily grasp what tendency the activity of his / her autonomic nerve has compared with other people.

(Example 6)
23 and 24 are diagrams illustrating an example of an image displayed on the display unit 32 in the information processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment. The information processing apparatus 10 and the information processing method according to the present embodiment are the same as the information processing apparatus 10 and the information processing method according to the embodiment except for the points described below. In addition, the method of this embodiment can be applied to the methods of Embodiments 1 to 4.

  In the information processing method performed by the information processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment, the selection unit 150 and the output unit 110 perform the following processing in the output step S12. That is, after reading the reference information from the storage unit 170, the selection unit 150 determines whether or not a predetermined criterion is satisfied as a prior determination, and when it is determined that the criterion is not satisfied, the selection unit 150 is similar to the embodiment. Perform the process. Information indicating the reference is stored in the storage unit 170 in advance, and can be read and used by the selection unit 150. Here, examples of prior determination include a first example, a second example, and a third example described later.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the standard is not satisfied, the selection unit 150 selects the first recommended action in the same manner as in the embodiment, and the output unit 110 is information for prompting other actions together with the first recommended action. Is output. Other behaviors are, for example, behaviors included in the activity-specific information for which the first recommended behavior is selected, behaviors for increasing parasympathetic activity, and behaviors for enhancing sympathetic activity. There may be one other action or two or more actions.

  For example, the display unit 32 displays other actions as candidates together with the first recommended action as shown in FIG. For example, the user selects an action by touching a predetermined portion of the touch panel 32 and then takes the action.

  Further, the display unit 32 may display other actions together with the first recommended action based on statistical data of a plurality of users obtained through the communication network as shown in FIG. In this case as well, the user selects an action and takes that action.

  The first example, the second example, and the third example of the determination example of the prior determination will be described below. In the first example, when there is not much difference between the priorities of a plurality of actions suitable for the user, it is determined that the criterion is satisfied. Specifically, when an index is associated with an action as a priority, the difference between the action with the highest priority and the action with the second highest priority among the actions corresponding to the first activity level is the standard. If the value is less than or equal to the value, it is determined that the criterion is satisfied. When the difference exceeds the reference value, it is determined that the reference is not satisfied.

  In the second example, when there is an action that the user particularly wants to prioritize, it is determined that the criterion is satisfied. Specifically, it is determined that the criterion is satisfied when an action to be particularly prioritized is input to the information processing apparatus 10 by the user in advance, and it is determined that the criterion is not satisfied when the action is not input. The input action to be particularly prioritized is stored in the storage unit 170, for example, and is presented to the user together with the first recommended action.

  In the third example, if the effect is not obtained even if a predetermined number of actions are taken, it is determined that the criterion is satisfied. Specifically, when the selection unit 150 selects the second recommended action, when selecting the action having the second highest priority as the second recommended action from the activity level information, It is determined that the criterion is satisfied when all of the actions of the activity level information are already selected except for one. That is, this is a case where actions are selected in the order of priority during the repeated processing, and all actions other than the action with the lowest priority are selected. Alternatively, when the output step S12 of a predetermined number of times has already been performed, it may be determined that the criterion is satisfied.

  In the first example, the second example, and the third example, two or more may be used in combination. In that case, when it is determined that any one of the criteria is satisfied, it can be considered that the criterion for the prior determination is satisfied.

  As described above, according to the present example, as in the embodiment, the control unit 190 updates the reference information based on the second activity level indicating the activity level after the user takes one action and the first activity level. To do. Therefore, a more effective action can be presented as an action to be taken in order to optimize the user's autonomic balance. Further, by giving the user room for selection, it is possible to follow the user's mood at that time.
