Description

The present invention is to collect the information of the living conditions of consumers in-home living and the elderly, on the living Tracking System that provides the collected information, such as the separation family.

  Currently, the aging of the population is progressing, and the number of households where one or two elderly people live is increasing. Even if such an elderly child has an adult child, the child is often separated. Elderly people are easy to get sick and often get hurt by a small amount of things, so many of their children want to be aware of the living conditions of parents who are separated and prepare for illnesses and accidents of older parents. I think.

  On the other hand, the development of network technology and digital technology has led to the spread of personal computers connected to the Internet in many homes, and the establishment of home networks. Now, televisions and refrigerators are also connected to personal computers via the home network. It has come to be connected to. In addition, health devices such as blood pressure meters and weight scales that can be easily handled are widely used in general households, and these health devices can be connected to personal computers.

  Against the backdrop of the above situation, using a personal computer, health equipment, home network, the Internet, etc., we received a request from a remote family member or their family members, for example, about the life of an elderly living alone or a care recipient A watching system that can be watched by an operator of a welfare service center has been developed and is being put into practical use. With such a monitoring system, the family and the operator of the welfare service center can now watch the life of the person being watched over.

However, from the perspective of the person being watched over, the more the watch system is able to acquire more detailed life information, the more the life information that the person being watched over wants to keep secret It will be. Therefore, Patent Document 1 discloses an example of a watching system that attempts to protect the privacy of a person being watched by setting, for each viewer, an item of information that can be browsed among information acquired by the watching system. Yes.
Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2002-109667 (paragraphs 0013 to 0024, FIG. 2)

  However, in the monitoring system disclosed in Patent Document 1, since it is implicitly assumed that the person being watched over is an elderly person living alone or a care recipient, In such a case, it is impossible to identify each person to be watched over and acquire their life information.

  In addition, since the operator of the welfare service center sets the items of information that can be browsed by each viewer at the request of the watching target person or their family, the watching target person changes the setting without permission. It is not possible. This may be sufficient if the person being watched over is a care recipient. However, if the person being watched is still fine and the watch system is used as a means of communication that informs the state of life rather than a means of care, the person being watched over will be able to determine his / her mail address. It is natural to want to determine the items of information that can be browsed for each viewer by hand.

  In addition, when an item of information that can be browsed is set for each viewer, there is an inconvenience in an emergency. For example, when an emergency situation is found by the monitoring system, for example, if the operator of the welfare service center cannot browse necessary information, the operator cannot take measures. In the monitoring system disclosed in Patent Document 1, the items of information that can be browsed in an emergency are not particularly changed.

In view of the situation of the above prior art, the object of the present invention is to enable each person to be watched to identify and obtain life information even if there are a plurality of persons to be watched, The person being watched over can set the person who is allowed to provide his / her life information and the item of provided information, and can be changed to expand the information provision item once set in an emergency. to provide a living Tracking system as.

  In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention, a lifestyle monitoring system is installed in a home where at least one consumer lives, and is installed in the consumer and a consumer detection sensor that detects the location of the consumer. A biological information detection sensor that detects at least one biological information and outputs a consumer ID; a home server that is connected to the consumer detection sensor and the biological information detection sensor and collects event information of a consumer's behavior; A center server that is connected to the server via a network and has a consumer event DB (Data Base) that accumulates event information of consumer activities, and is connected to the center server via the network and accumulates in the consumer event DB It is made up of a DB browsing terminal for browsing the information. Then, the home server generates the event information with the consumer ID of the behavior of the consumer based on the output information of the consumer detection sensor and the biological information detection sensor, and sends the generated event information with the consumer ID to the center server. In addition, based on the generated event information with the consumer ID, the abnormal state of the consumer is detected, and the detected information on the abnormal state of the consumer is transmitted to the center server. Further, the center server receives the event information with the consumer ID transmitted from the home server and the information on the abnormal state of the consumer, and receives the received event information with the consumer ID and information on the abnormal state of the consumer. When it is accumulated in the consumer event DB and the browsing request information and the viewer ID of the consumer event DB are received from the DB browsing terminal, among the information of the consumer event DB indicated by the browsing request information, for each viewer ID Information within the range of the browsing permission information set in advance is transmitted to the DB browsing terminal.

  According to the present invention, since a consumer who is a person to be watched wears a biological information detection sensor that outputs a consumer ID, even if a plurality of consumers live in a home, the home server Event information (event information with a consumer ID) of the consumer who has identified the consumer can be acquired. Then, the event information with the consumer ID is transmitted from the home server to the center server and accumulated in the consumer event DB of the center server. The center server refers to the browsing permission information set in advance for each browser ID when browsing the consumer event DB from the DB browsing terminal, and only the information within the range of the browsing permission information is sent to the DB browsing terminal. Do not send. Therefore, since the information accumulated in the consumer event DB is not browsed carelessly, the privacy of the person being watched over is protected.

  In the present invention, the home server sets browsing permission information for each browser ID based on information input by a consumer, transmits the set browsing permission information to the center server, and the center server The browsing permission information transmitted from the server is received, and the browsing permission information held by itself is changed based on the received browsing permission information. That is, since the consumer, that is, the watching target person himself / herself can set the browsing permission information of the center server, the privacy can be protected as the watching target person thinks.

  Further, in the present invention, when the center server receives the information on the abnormal state of the consumer transmitted from the home server, the center server determines the urgency of the response to the received abnormal state of the consumer, and the emergency When the degree is higher than a predetermined urgency level, information including abnormal state information is transmitted to a predetermined DB browsing terminal, and the browsing permission information is changed. That is, according to the present invention, when an emergency occurs in a consumer, that is, a person to be watched, by changing the browsing permission information, even if the information is not normally browseable by the viewer, Can be able to. For this reason, the viewer can acquire more information in an emergency, and thus can easily cope with an emergency situation.

  According to the present invention, even if there are a plurality of watching target persons, it is possible to identify each watching target person and acquire life information thereof. In addition, the person to be watched can set a partner and a provision information item that are permitted to provide their own life information. Furthermore, in an emergency, more information can be acquired, and it becomes easier to deal with an emergency situation.

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

<Home server processing>
Hereinafter, processing performed mainly by the home server 5 will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 to 9 and with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4 as appropriate. Here, FIG. 5 illustrates data performed between the consumer detection sensor, the wearable biological information detection sensor, and the home server when the home server acquires detection data from the consumer detection sensor in the embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a flow of transmission / reception, FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a flow of abnormal state information generation processing in the home server, FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a configuration of event information and abnormal state information, and FIG. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a flow of information generation processing, and FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a configuration of browsing permission information.

  As shown in FIG. 5, for example, when detecting a human body (step S10), the consumer detection sensor 1 provided with a human sensor or the like requests a response from the wearable biological information detection sensor 2 (step S11). . The response request is output from the sensor-sensor communication unit 15 (see FIG. 2) of the consumer detection sensor 1 on a weak radio wave or infrared light. Then, the wearable biological information detection sensor 2 worn by the consumer 103 near the consumer detection sensor 1 receives the response request through the sensor-sensor communication unit 25 (step S12), and the ID storage unit 221. The consumer ID of the consumer 103 stored in is transmitted (step S13).

  The consumer detection sensor 1 receives the consumer ID transmitted from the wearable biological information detection sensor 2 (step S14), receives the consumer ID, the sensor ID assigned to it, and the detection detected by itself. Data is transmitted to the home server 5 via the home network 50 (step S15).

  The home server 5 receives the consumer ID, sensor ID and detection data transmitted by the consumer detection sensor 1 (step S16), and based on these received data, the consumer as shown in FIG. 103 event information is generated (step S17). Then, the home server 5 transmits the generated event information to the center server 7 (step S18) and executes an abnormal state information generation process (detailed later) for detecting an abnormal state of the consumer 103 based on the event information. (Step S19).

  The home server 5 can also acquire the event information of the consumer from the installed biological information detection sensor 3 and the environmental abnormality detection sensor 4. Also in this case, the processing flow for acquiring the event information is the same processing flow as in FIG. That is, in FIG. 5, it is only necessary to replace the place with the consumer detection sensor 1 with the installation-type biological information detection sensor 3 or the environmental abnormality detection sensor 4.

  In addition, it is possible to acquire consumer event information from the wearable biological information detection sensor 2. In this case, the wearable biological information detection sensor 2 may add the consumer ID and the sensor ID to the acceleration data obtained from, for example, the acceleration sensor 232 of the sensor unit 23 and transmit it to the home server 5. However, since the transmission data cannot pass through the wired home network 50, it is converted into a wireless signal via the wireless LAN communication unit 26, and the wireless signal is received by the wireless LAN communication unit 56 of the home server 5. Is done.

  As described above, the home server 5 can generate event information of the consumer 103. Here, the configuration of the event information will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 7A, the event information includes a consumer ID, an event type, an event name, an event occurrence time, and attached data. The event type is information for classifying the event, and in the present embodiment, there is location information, work information, state information, health information, and the like.

  Here, the location information is event information for determining which living room 103 the living person 103 is in. For example, the living person 103 has entered the living room 101 or has gone out of the home 100 (such as an entrance door). Event information detected by a human sensor installed in the The work information is a record of the active behavior of the consumer 103, for example, event information such as turning on an electric light, turning on a television, or making a phone call. The state information is information indicating the state of the consumer 103 such as sleeping or taking a bath. The health information means that the body weight is measured, the blood pressure is measured, and the body temperature is measured using a health device in the home (corresponding to the wearable biological information detection sensor 2 and the installed biological information detection sensor 3). This is event information obtained in the event of a failure.

  These event information is accompanied by various attached data for each event name. For example, in the case of health information, data such as a weight of 65 kg is attached to a weight measurement event, and data such as a pulse rate of 70 times / minute is attached to a pulse measurement event. In addition, long data such as electrocardiogram waveform data or electroencephalogram waveform data may be attached to an event of electrocardiogram measurement or electroencephalogram measurement.

  Next, the flow of the abnormal state information generation process will be described with reference to FIG. The home server 5 determines whether or not the event is a state start event based on the event information generated in step S17 of FIG. 5, and if the event is a state start event (Yes in step S20). ), A monitoring timer is set (step S21). If it is not a state start event (No in step S20), it is further determined whether or not it is a state end event. If it is a state end event (Yes in step S22), monitoring is performed. The timer is cleared (step S23). Then, after executing Step S21 and Step S23, and if No in Step S22, the process is once terminated.

  Here, the state start event is, for example, an event in which the consumer 103 enters the bathroom or the toilet room, and the state end event exits the bathroom or the toilet room. It is an event such as. By these events, for example, bathing time and toilet time can be measured, and when these times are abnormally long, it is determined as an abnormal state. In the present embodiment, the monitoring timer performs time measurement, and when the monitoring timer reaches a predetermined time, the information processing unit 51 is interrupted.

  Therefore, when an interruption from the monitoring timer occurs (step S24), the home server 5 starts again the execution of the abnormal state information generation process, and abnormal state information (for example, bathing) is started based on the information of the state start event. Information such as time is too long) (step S25). Then, the home server 5 transmits the generated abnormal state information to the center server 7 (step S26). At this time, as shown in FIG. 7B, the abnormal state information includes a consumer ID, a name of the abnormal state, an occurrence time of the abnormal state, and attached data.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, since each of the event information and the abnormal state information is assigned with a consumer ID, even if a plurality of consumers 103 live in the home 100, the home server 5 can identify each consumer 103 and acquire the event information.

  In addition, when there is a visitor who does not have a consumer ID, the consumer detection sensor 1 cannot acquire a consumer ID. In such a case, a visitor ID may be assigned as a consumer ID. In addition, even when the environmental abnormality detection sensor 4 such as a smoke sensor is activated during absence, the environmental abnormality detection sensor 4 cannot acquire the consumer ID. In such a case, an absence ID or the like may be assigned as a consumer ID.

  Next, the browsing permission information generation process will be described with reference to FIGS. In this embodiment, the consumer 103 operates the home server 5 to create browsing permission information. Accordingly, the consumer 103 first inputs a predetermined command to the home server 5 from the keyboard 58 or the like, thereby starting a browsing permission information generation processing program. Then, the home server 5 displays a screen for creating browsing permission information on the display 57 (step S30). Since the consumer 103 views the screen and inputs necessary items, the home server 5 captures input data of the browsing permission information (step S31) and transmits the captured browsing permission information to the center server 7 (step S31). S32).

  FIG. 9A is an example of browsing permission information regarding a certain consumer 103. In the present embodiment, the consumer event information and abnormal state information of the consumer 103 can be set for each viewer and for each event type (see FIG. 7). Therefore, in step S30, for example, the display as shown in FIG. 9A is performed, so that the consumer 103 may set the browsing permission information for each viewer.

  Here, “◯” indicates that browsing is permitted, and “−” indicates that browsing is not possible. For example, the eldest daughter living nearby is set to be able to browse all information, and the eldest son living far away is set not to browse the location information such as in which room 101. The center operator and neighbors can browse the abnormal state information, but other information is set not to be browsed for privacy protection. However, for neighbors, the location information can be viewed.

  In FIG. 9, the browsing permission setting is set for each event type, but the browsing permission may be set for further subdivided items. For example, with regard to health information, browsing permission may be set separately for information only about events such as measuring body weight and attached data such as 65 kg attached to the event. This can protect the privacy more finely. In addition, when attached large and specialized attached data such as an electrocardiographic waveform is attached, it is possible to prevent the large data from being transmitted more than necessary.

  In the present embodiment, as described above, the consumer 103 himself / herself can set permission to view his / her event information and abnormal state information. Therefore, the consumer 103 can be sufficiently protected. However, this causes inconvenience in an emergency. Therefore, in this embodiment, emergency permission information is prepared as shown in FIG. In this case, settings are made so that most information can be browsed.

  The emergency browsing permission information may also be set by the consumer 103 as in the normal browsing permission information. However, in that case, for example, it is assumed that the browsing permission information for the operator of the center is set so that all can be browsed, and the consumer 103 cannot change the setting.

<Center server processing>
Next, processing executed by the center server 7 will be described with reference to FIGS. 10 to 13 and with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4 as appropriate. Here, FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a process flow of the consumer event DB browsing processing unit, and FIG. 11 is a diagram showing a process flow of the abnormal state emergency degree determination processing unit and the emergency information provision processing unit. FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of emergency level determination information, and FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating an example of emergency process information.

  First, the processing units 711 of the information processing unit 71 of the center server 7 will be described with reference to FIG. The consumer event DB registration processing unit 711 receives the event information and abnormal state information of the consumer 103 transmitted from the home server 5, and registers the received event information and abnormal state information in the consumer event DB 720. Execute. At this time, event information and abnormal state information are classified and registered in the consumer event DB 720 for each consumer ID and event type. Also, the browser permission information setting processing unit 713 receives the browser permission information transmitted from the home server 5 and executes a process of setting the received browser permission information in the browsing permission information storage unit 722.

  The process flow of the consumer event DB browsing processing unit 712 will be described with reference to FIG. First, DB browsing request information is transmitted from the DB browsing terminal 8 (step S41). Therefore, the information processing unit 71 of the center server 7 receives the DB browsing request information (step S42). Since the DB browsing request information includes a browser ID, a consumer ID that is to be browsed, and the like, the browsing stored in the browsing permission information storage unit 722 based on the browser ID and the consumer ID. By referring to the permission information, the type of information in the consumer event DB 720 that can be browsed by the viewer is acquired (step S43).

  Next, the information processing unit 71 acquires information indicated by the type of information acquired in step S43 from the consumer event DB 720 (step S44), and uses the acquired information on the consumer event DB 720 as the DB browsing terminal 8. (Step S45). The DB browsing terminal 8 receives the information on the consumer event DB 720 (step S46), and displays the received information on the consumer event DB 720 on a display device attached to the DB browsing terminal 8 (step S47). In this manner, the viewer can browse the event information of the designated consumer.

  Next, the processing flow of the abnormal state urgency determination processing unit and the emergency information provision processing unit will be described with reference to FIG. When the information processing unit 71 of the center server 7 receives the abnormal state information transmitted from the home server 5 (step S50), the information processing unit 71 receives the reference with the emergency level determination information stored in the emergency level determination information storage unit 724. The degree of urgency of the abnormal state information is determined (step S51).

  Here, an example of the emergency determination information is shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 12, for example, if the bathing time is 1 hour or more, the urgency is “1”, if it is 2 hours or more, the urgency is “2”, and if it is 3 hours or more, the urgency is “3”. And Here, there are three levels of urgency, but any number of levels may be used.

  When the urgency level is higher than the predetermined urgency level, for example, when the urgency level is “3” (Yes in step S52), it is determined that an emergency has occurred in the consumer 103, The browsing permission information stored in the browsing permission information storage unit 722 is changed to emergency browsing permission information (step S53). Then, the abnormal state information is transmitted to the designated DB browsing terminal 8 based on the emergency process information stored in the emergency treatment information storage unit 723 (step S54).

  Here, FIG. 13 shows an example of emergency processing information. As shown in FIG. 13, in an emergency, for example, an email notifying the eldest daughter of an emergency is transmitted to the eldest daughter's DB browsing terminal 8, which is a mobile phone, for example. In that case, the abnormal state information is attached to the mail, but other information is not attached. Therefore, for example, the eldest daughter who has received a notification that the state of the resident 103 to be watched is urgent, accesses the resident event DB 720 through the DB browsing terminal 8 and acquires the detailed situation of the resident 103. Can do.

  In addition, since a similar notification is also sent to the operator at the center, the operator browses the event information of consumers who cannot normally browse, grasps the situation of the emergency situation, and performs the next action, for example, the site. You can give instructions such as dispatching a rescuer or calling an ambulance.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, since the browsing permission information can be set as intended by the consumer 103 who is the object of watching in normal times, the privacy of the consumer 103 is protected, and in an emergency, In addition, since the emergency browsing permission information whose browsing permission range is expanded is used, for example, it is possible to avoid the inconvenience that the center operator cannot browse the event information of the consumer 103.
