Riding that acquires device identification information from devices existing in a communicable range by wireless communication that is a range, and compares the acquired identification information with recorded and held identification information And a step of notifying when leaving the vehicle based on the comparison result of the step of comparing when getting off, and a step of notifying the user of forgotten items left in the vehicle when getting off the vehicle. Based on the result of the comparison in this step, by detecting the equipment that was taken out when the previous user got off and was not brought in when the user got on the vehicle, the user who got off the vehicle immediately before getting on this time And a step of notifying when the user leaves the vehicle and notifies the user of the lost item . In addition, the device information is notified to the user along with forgotten items.

Claim 1, or according to the configuration of claim 3, only the radio communication at the time the trigger is obtained, it is possible to detect the equipment that was left behind in the vehicle, thereby without constant monitoring, a simple and Certainly, it is possible to prevent the loss or misplacement of belongings.

  According to the present invention, loss or misplacement of belongings can be prevented easily and reliably without constantly monitoring.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings as appropriate.

(1) Configuration of Embodiment 1 FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a belonging management apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention together with related configurations. This belonging management device 1 is an in-vehicle device mounted on a vehicle, detects a device present in the vehicle by wireless communication, and notifies a user of a forgotten item.

  Here, in the property management apparatus 1, wireless communication for short-range communication is applied to the wireless communication so that a device having a corresponding wireless communication function can be set as a management target. Specifically, the property management apparatus 1 is provided with wireless communication means related to IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc.) 802.11, Bluetooth, and a non-contact type IC card. A device corresponding to the communication means can be set as a management target.

  As a result, the inventory management device 1 is configured to have, for example, an IEEE802.11 or Bluetooth communication unit 2A, 3A, a mobile phone 2 having a controller 2B, 3B for controlling the operation of the communication unit 2A, 3A, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistants). ) 3 can be set as a management target. In addition, the communication unit 4A related to the non-contact type IC card, the commuter pass that is the IC card having the controller 4B that controls the operation of the communication unit 4A, and the pass of the same type of employee ID card can be set as management targets. It is made like that. Thus, the controllers 2B, 3B, and 4B of these devices 2, 3, and 4 control the operation of the corresponding communication units 2A, 3A, and 4A so as to respond to the call from the inventory management device 1, and perform authentication and the like. The processing is executed, and an identification code or the like for specifying the type of each device is transmitted.

  The personal belongings management device 1 notifies the user of forgotten items related to these management targets when the user gets on the mounted vehicle and when the user gets off. For this reason, the property management apparatus 1 acquires the trigger concerning the process at the time of getting off from the controller 6 of this vehicle, when boarding these.

  That is, in this embodiment, when the electronic key 7 is held close to the vehicle, the electronic key 7 executes an authentication process or the like in response to a call from the communication unit 8 provided on the vehicle. Provides a trigger for unlocking. When the communication unit 8 deviates from the communicable range, the operation is stopped, thereby providing the vehicle with a trigger for locking the door lock. It should be noted that the electronic key 7 can be widely applied even in a system for instructing locking / unlocking of the door lock by the operation of the operator by the user.

  The communication unit 8 has a configuration corresponding to the electronic key 7 and calls for a response to the electronic key 7 at regular time intervals under the control of the controller 6 and authenticates with the electronic key 7 when a response is obtained. Execute the process. If the authentication is successful, the controller 6 is notified of the detection of the electronic key 7. In addition, after notifying the detection of the electronic key 7 in this way, similarly, a response is called to the electronic key 7 at a certain time interval to confirm the presence of the electronic key 7, and the response from the electronic key 7 is confirmed. Is not obtained, the controller 6 is notified accordingly. In the case where the electronic key 7 is a system in which locking and unlocking of the door lock are instructed in response to the operation of the operator by the user, the communication unit 8 is obtained from the electronic key 7 in response to such an operation by the user. In response to the call, processing such as authentication is executed, and if the authentication can be performed correctly, the controller 6 is notified of the operation of the electronic key 7 by the user.

  The controller 6 is a computer that controls the operation of the vehicle as a whole. The controller 6 releases the door lock in response to a process notification with the electronic key 7 obtained from the communication unit 8, and conversely locks the door lock. To do. Thereby, in this embodiment, the door lock can be operated by the electronic key 7. Thus, when the door lock is released with the electronic key 7 as described above, the user gets on the vehicle, and when the door lock is locked with the electronic key 7, the user gets off the vehicle and leaves the vehicle. It can be determined that this is the case. Thus, the controller 6 notifies the property management apparatus 1 of such door lock release and locking.

  Further, the controller 6 notifies the belonging management apparatus 1 of the detection result of the passenger by the passenger detection means. Here, such a passenger detection means detects the user's seating on the seat by, for example, a pressure sensor provided in the driver's seat, an image processing means for processing an imaging result of the driver's seat, and the like. Thus, in the vehicle, for example, even after the door lock is released, the user may not get in immediately, and the door lock may be released by operating the electronic key 7 in the vehicle to get off the vehicle. However, when the user is not detected in the seat by the occupant detection means when the door lock is released, and the user is detected in the seat by the occupant detection means after that, the user detection by the occupant detection means It can be determined that the boarding by the user is completed by the detection. Conversely, if the user is not detected by the passenger detection means and the door lock is locked, it can be determined that the user gets off the vehicle and leaves the vehicle.

  Thus, in this embodiment, it is possible to reliably detect boarding and getting off of the vehicle by the user and manage forgotten things by using the user's boarding and getting off of the vehicle as a trigger.

  In this way, the controller 6 notifies the belongings management device 1 of the door lock locking, and when a warning is instructed from the belongings management device 1, the hazard lamp blinks for a certain period of time, thereby allowing the user who has left the vehicle to get off. It is designed to notify the existence of lost items.

  Therefore, the belonging management apparatus 1 executes wireless communication processing with a wireless communication device brought into the vehicle by using the trigger for getting on and getting off from the vehicle side thus obtained, Detect devices present in Further, the detection result is compared with the corresponding past detection result, and a change in the device carried by the user is detected based on the comparison result to detect the forgotten item, and the detected forgotten item is notified to the user.

  That is, in the inventory management device 1, the communication unit 10 is a communication means for short-range communication in which an antenna is provided in the vehicle interior, and the space in the vehicle is set to a communicable range by setting transmission power or the like. It is made so that. In this embodiment, the communication unit 10 is provided with wireless communication means related to IEEE802.11, Bluetooth, and a non-contact type IC card, and transmission power and the like are set so that the interior of this vehicle is within a communicable range. Under the control of the controller 11, a response is called to a device capable of wireless communication existing in this communicable range via these wireless communication means. When responses are obtained from these devices, authentication processing is executed under the control of the controller 11, and then identification information for identifying the type of the device is obtained from the device from which the response is obtained and notified to the controller 11. . Here, for such identification information (ID information) for identifying the type of device, for example, acquisition of an identification code set for each device can be considered. For example, in the case of an IC card such as a commuter pass and such a device type, it is possible to specify from the wireless communication means from which the response is obtained.

  The operation unit 12 is formed by an operator provided on the dashboard of the vehicle, and notifies the controller 11 of an operation by the user. The recording unit 13 records and holds the processing program of the controller 11 and various data necessary for the processing of the controller 11, and outputs these data under the control of the controller 11. The display unit 14 is composed of a liquid crystal display panel, and displays a detection result of a forgotten item under the control of the controller 11.

  The controller 11 is a computer that controls the operation of the property management apparatus 1. The controller 11 receives registration of property belonging to management by executing a processing program recorded in the recording unit 13, and further displays a speaker 15 by displaying on the display unit 14. Notify the user of forgotten items by voice output from.

  FIG. 1 is a flowchart showing a processing procedure of the controller 11. The controller 11 receives the door lock from the vehicle controller 6, the unlocking notification, and the detection result notification by the passenger detection means, and the user gets on and sits in the driver's seat. Is determined to be surely present in the communicable range related to the belongings management apparatus 1, this processing procedure is executed.

  When starting this processing procedure, the controller 11 moves from step SP1 to step SP2, drives the communication unit 10 to send out a response call, and detects a wirelessly communicable device present in the vehicle from the response to this call. To do. Further, it is determined whether there is a device capable of wireless communication in the vehicle based on the detection result.

  If a response is not obtained by calling for a response by the communication unit 10, the controller 11 determines that there is no device capable of wireless communication in the vehicle, moves from step SP2 to step SP3, and ends this processing procedure.

  On the other hand, when a response is obtained to the call by the communication unit 10, the controller 11 moves from step SP2 to step SP4, and instructs the communication unit 10 to perform processing such as authentication with the device from which this response is obtained. . Thereafter, under the control of the communication unit 10, ID information is acquired from this device so that the type of the device that has returned the response can be identified.

  When the ID information is acquired in this way, the controller 11 moves to step SP5, and the device that has returned this response by searching the record of the management target recorded in the recording unit 13 based on the detected ID information. It is determined whether the device is registered as a management target. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, the management target of the inventory management device 1 can be registered by the processing of step SP6 described later, and the identification information related to this management target is stored in the recording unit 13. It is made to hold. However, in the example shown in FIG. 3, it is indicated that the PDA 2, the mobile phone 3, and the path 4 are registered as management targets.

  If a negative result is obtained in step SP5, the controller 11 moves from step SP5 to step SP6, and notifies the user of detection of an unregistered device by display on the display unit 14 and sound output from the speaker 15. Further, the user accepts selection as to whether or not to register to the management target by this notification, and when the user instructs registration to the management target by operating the operation unit 12, the detected ID information is recorded in the recording unit 13 as the management target. . In addition, in this record, when a general device name (for example, a mobile phone, a regular period, an employee ID card, etc.) cannot be determined depending on the ID information, after receiving an input of such a general device name, the process proceeds to step SP7. . As a result, the controller 11 can register the management target as described above with reference to FIG. 3 by a simple process.

  In subsequent step SP7, the controller 11 determines whether or not the processing has been completed for all devices for which responses have been detected. If a negative result is obtained here, the controller 11 proceeds from step SP7 to step SP8 to process the next device. The target is switched and the process returns to step SP4. As a result, the controller 11 determines again whether or not it is registered in step SP5 after acquiring ID information for another device held in the vehicle.

  On the other hand, if a positive result is obtained in step SP5, the controller 11 proceeds from step SP5 to step SP9. Here, the controller 11 acquires state information indicating the state of the device, such as the remaining battery capacity, according to the user's prior settings, for example, and temporarily records the detected state information together with the ID information in the recording unit 13, Move to SP7. As a result, the controller 11 sequentially detects ID information for all devices for which a response has been detected by the communication unit 10 to detect devices to be managed, and for the devices to be managed, as shown in FIG. Sometimes, it is recorded in the recording unit 13 as device information carried by the user. Thus, in the example shown in FIG. 3, the path 4 such as the PDA 2, the mobile phone 3 and the commuter pass registered as the management target is indicated by IN as a detection result related to the processing at the time of boarding shown in FIG. Detection of the PDA 2, the mobile phone 3, and the pass 4 is recorded.

  When the controller 11 completes these processes for all devices for which responses are detected in the communication unit 10 in this way, an affirmative result is obtained in step SP7, so that the process proceeds from step SP7 to step SP10. It is determined whether or not it is recorded in the recording unit 13. Here, when the user gets off the vehicle, the controller 11 executes a similar processing procedure to be described later so that the device carried by the user and taken away from the vehicle is recorded as shown in FIG. Has been made. In the example shown in FIG. 3, the detection result at the time of getting off is indicated by OUT. Although the PDA 2 and the mobile phone 3 are carried away by the user, the pass 4 is left in the car. It is made to show that there is.

  However, when the user first rides a device capable of wireless communication with this vehicle, the controller 11 obtains a negative result in step SP10 due to the absence of such a record relating to getting off, and in this case, the step 11 Moving from SP10 to step SP3, this processing procedure is terminated.

  On the other hand, if an affirmative result is obtained in step SP10, the controller 11 proceeds from step SP10 to step SP11, and compares the record at the time of getting off, which is the comparison target, with the record at the time of boarding according to this processing procedure. Based on the comparison result, a device that is carried by the user when getting off the vehicle and that is not detected in the vehicle when boarding according to the processing procedure is detected. Thereby, the controller 11 detects the forgotten thing until it gets on after a user gets off. In addition, a device that is not carried at the time of boarding and that is not detected even at the time of boarding is detected.

  Subsequently, the controller 11 moves to step SP12 and reads out the audio data corresponding to the detection result in step SP11 from the recording unit 13, and in the subsequent step SP13, by the audio output by the read out audio data and by the display on the display unit 14. After notifying the user of the detection result of the forgotten item, the process proceeds to step SP3 and the processing procedure is terminated. FIG. 4 is a plan view showing the display on the display unit 14 in step SP13. In the example of FIG. 4, both the PDA 2 and the mobile phone 3 are detected in the vehicle, and it is indicated by “OK” that the PDA 2 and the mobile phone 3 are not left behind. At this time, what is being carried is not detected at the time of the current boarding, so that the path 4 is displayed as a forgotten item. In the case of equipment that is not detected both when getting off and when getting on, it is indicated by a corresponding mark.

  As a result, the property management apparatus 1 can confirm, for example, forgotten items at the stop-by location by this display.

  In the processing relating to this display, the controller 11 notifies the user of the status of each device based on the status information detected in step SP9, and for this reason, for example, a device with a low remaining battery charge needs to be charged. , Notify the user. As a result, the property management apparatus 1 notifies the user of the state of the device at the time of monitoring and notification of the lost item, and can effectively avoid a situation where the device cannot be used unexpectedly.

  FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing a processing procedure of the controller 11 when getting off. The controller 11 executes this processing procedure when the user no longer exists in the driver's seat due to the notification of the detection result by the passenger detection means, and in this state, when the user gets out of the vehicle by the notification of the door lock locking.

  In this processing procedure, the controller 11 moves from step SP21 to step SP22, drives the communication unit 10 to send a response call, and detects a wirelessly communicable device present in the vehicle from the response to the call. Further, it is determined whether there is a device capable of wireless communication in the vehicle based on the detection result.

  Here, when a response is not obtained due to a response call by the communication unit 10, the controller 11 proceeds from step SP22 to step SP23 because there is no device capable of wireless communication in the vehicle. Here, in this case, since all the portable devices detected at the time of boarding are carried by the user, the controller 11 records the records of the devices detected at the time of boarding recorded in the recording unit 13 at the time of getting off. Copy to a record carried by the user. In this case, as shown in FIG. 3, when all of the PDA 2, the mobile phone 3 and the path 4 are detected at the time of boarding indicated by IN, the user's mobile phone record when getting off indicated by OUT is recorded. These are to set a record indicating that all devices are carried by the user, and in the example shown in FIG. 3, all the items of OUT are set to “◯”.

  When the recording of the recording unit 13 is updated in this way, the controller 11 moves to step SP24 and ends this processing procedure. As a result, when the user gets on the next time, the controller 11 can detect forgotten things after getting off after getting off by comparing with the record at the time of boarding in the recording unit 13.

  On the other hand, if a positive result is obtained in step SP22, the controller 11 proceeds from step SP22 to step SP25. Here, the controller 11 instructs the communication unit 10 to perform processing such as authentication with the device from which the response is obtained. Thereafter, the ID information is acquired under the control of the communication unit 10.

  When the ID information is acquired in this way, the controller 11 moves to step SP26, and the device that returned this response by searching the record of the management target recorded in the recording unit 13 by using the detected ID information. It is determined whether the device is registered as a management target. If a negative result is obtained here, the controller 11 proceeds from step SP26 to step SP27, and determines whether or not the processing has been completed for all devices for which responses have been detected. The process moves from SP27 to step SP28, the processing target is switched to the next device, and the process returns to step SP25.

  On the other hand, if a positive result is obtained in step SP26, the controller 11 moves from step SP26 to step SP29, and in this managed device, it is held in the vehicle and is not carried by the user. The recording at the time of getting off of the recording unit 13 is set, and the process proceeds to step SP27. Thus, the controller 11 sequentially detects whether or not all the devices detected in the vehicle are registered devices, and the registered devices are carried by the user in the recording at the time of getting off in the recording unit 13. Set the information indicating that it is not.

  When such processing is completed for all devices detected in the vehicle, an affirmative result is obtained in step SP27, and the process proceeds from step SP27 to step SP30.

  In this step SP30, the controller 11 detects the management target devices other than the devices detected in the vehicle and recorded in the recording unit 13 by the processing in step SP29, and is recorded when it is detected and held in the recording unit 13. Are copied to the corresponding records at the time of getting off, and the records on getting off are updated for all the devices to be managed. Therefore, in the example of OUT shown in FIG. 3, the PDA 2 and the mobile phone 3 are not detected in the vehicle by this process when getting off, and thus it is determined that the user has taken away, but the path is detected in the vehicle, This indicates that the user is not carrying the phone.

  When the setting of the record at the time of getting off is completed in this way, the controller 11 compares the record at the time of getting off with the record at the time of getting on, and thereby detects forgotten things left in the car. Further, in the subsequent step SP31, a display similar to that described above with reference to FIG. If a forgotten item is detected, the controller 6 is instructed to blink the hazard lamp, thereby notifying the user of the presence of the forgotten item, and then the process proceeds to step SP24 and the processing procedure is terminated. In this way, in the method for notifying the user of things left behind after getting off the vehicle, for example, when a warning sound is generated by a horn, various notification methods such as notification to a mobile phone carried by the user, a PDA, etc. Can be widely applied.

  Accordingly, in this embodiment, the controller 11 compares the detection unit 11A that detects a device in the vehicle with the ID information detected by the communication unit 10, and the detection result by the detection unit 11A and the past detection result. A comparison unit 11B that detects forgotten things and an interface (IF) 11C that outputs a detection result by the comparison unit 11B to the display unit 14 and the like are configured.

(2) Operation of the embodiment In the configuration described above, in the vehicle according to the inventory management device 1 (FIG. 2), when the door lock is released by the electronic key 7 and the user is seated on the seat, a series of these rides Triggered by the user's operation as a trigger, wirelessly communicable devices brought into the vehicle compartment by wireless communication by the communication unit 10 are sequentially detected, and whether or not the detected device is a pre-registered management target device. If the device is not a device to be managed, registration to the management target is accepted by the user. In addition, for the device to be managed, the recording unit 13 records that it was detected when the user got on such a vehicle.

  On the other hand, when the user gets off the vehicle and locks the door with the electronic key 7, the property management apparatus 1 is wirelessly left in the room of the vehicle by wireless communication by the communication unit 10 in the same manner as when getting on. Devices that are communicable and registered as management targets are sequentially detected. Thus, even if the device is detected in the vehicle even when the user gets off, it can be said that the device is not carried by the user.

  Thereby, in the property management apparatus 1, when such a device is a device to be managed, the hazard lamp blinks by notification to the controller 6 of the vehicle, thereby notifying the user who is leaving the vehicle that there is something left behind. Is done. In addition, the type of the forgotten item is displayed on the display unit 14, whereby the details of the forgotten item are notified to the user who looks into the vehicle by blinking the hazard lamp.

  On the other hand, in such a device that is not detected by wireless communication by the communication unit 10 when getting off, it is either a device that has not been brought into the vehicle from the beginning, or a device that is carried by the user outside the vehicle. .

  As a result, in the personal belongings management apparatus 1, the records detected at the time of boarding about the managed devices that are still detected in the vehicle even when the user gets off, and the managed devices that are not detected after the user gets off the vehicle. As a result, a device to be managed carried by the user and carried away is detected, and this device is recorded in the recording unit 13 as a record at the time of getting off. Thereby, in this belongings management device 1, it is possible to detect forgotten things when the user who gets off the vehicle in this way gets on the vehicle again.

  That is, a comparison result is obtained with respect to a device to be managed that is detected by the belonging management apparatus 1 when the user gets on the vehicle again, and the device that is recorded when the user gets off the vehicle, so that the user can Devices that are carried away but are not detected in the vehicle are detected during subsequent rides. However, in this device, it can be determined that, for example, the user has left the device at home, at home, or the like. You will be notified of forgotten items.

  In this embodiment, however, there is always the presence in the vehicle by detecting the forgotten thing by comparing the devices detected at the time of the trigger by setting the boarding and getting off by the user as triggers. Forgetting things can be detected without monitoring the equipment to be used.

  In addition, in this way, forgotten things are detected by comparison with past detection results, and the detection results of belongings that are used for detection of forgotten things are recorded and held again, so that forgotten things related to getting on and off the vehicle Can be detected respectively.

  In addition, by keeping a record in this way, it is possible to identify the equipment that the user carried and brought out of the car due to the difference between what was brought into the car and what was left in the car. Can be reliably detected.

  In this belonging management device 1, in this way, the user is notified of the forgotten item, and the state information indicating the state of the device is also acquired at the time of wireless communication with the in-vehicle device for detection of the forgotten item. The user is notified of the status of the device based on this status information. As a result, the property management apparatus 1 can effectively avoid a situation in which the device becomes difficult to use due to a battery exhaustion or the like, thereby improving the usability of the user.

(3) Advantages of the embodiment According to the above configuration, it is always possible to detect changes in the devices carried by the user by comparing the devices detected by wireless communication at each time point with getting on and off as a trigger. Without monitoring, the loss or misplacement of belongings can be prevented easily and reliably.

  In addition, by acquiring the status information indicating the status of the device, and notifying the user of the device information based on this status information, the user is notified of the status of the device and the user's usability when detecting forgotten items. Can be improved.

  In addition, by detecting such devices by wireless communication using a trigger upon getting on and off, it is possible to detect forgotten items left in the vehicle and forgotten devices taken out of the vehicle.

In this embodiment, the property management apparatus is applied to room entry / exit management and relates to entry / exit detected by the entry / exit management apparatus using the entry / exit detected by the entry / exit management apparatus as a trigger. For each user, a device carried by each user is detected, and a forgotten thing is detected based on the detection result and notified to the user. The configuration of the second embodiment is not included in the present application, and is a configuration as a reference example of the present application.

  Here, in this entrance / exit management device, the user who enters and leaves the room is authenticated by the IC card held by the user by the non-contact IC card reader provided at the entrance and exit of the room to be managed, and the authentication result To manage entry and exit.

  In the belonging management device, the user who enters and leaves the room is grasped from the user authentication result by the entry / exit management device. Also, triggered by the detection of the IC card in the IC card reader, the device held by the user related to this room entry / exit is detected by wireless communication using an antenna held close to the IC card reader. In addition, the devices detected in this way are recorded and held for each user, and forgotten things are detected and notified to the user by comparison with the past detection results thus recorded. That is, a forgotten item left in the room is detected by comparing the device detected and recorded when entering the room with the device detected when leaving the room, and the user is notified. In addition, by comparing the device detected and recorded when leaving the room with the device detected when entering the room, a forgotten item due to going out is detected and notified to the user.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, the entry / exit management device constitutes a user identification means for identifying a user who enters and leaves the room, and by comparing identification information on the same user based on the identification result by the user identification means, A change in the device held by the user is detected to detect forgotten items.
