  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the embodiment.

(Embodiment 1)
1 is a diagram showing an overall configuration of a security system according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a security sensor, and FIG. 3 is a block diagram of a repeater.

  In FIG. 1, a security sensor 1 performs intrusion detection with a human sensor that detects the movement of a person using infrared rays or the like, or an open / close sensor that detects opening / closing of a door or window. The repeater 2 notifies the mobile phone 5 of the intrusion detection detected by the security sensor 1 from the mobile phone base station 4 via the telephone line 3. Of course, the mobile phone 5 may be a normal phone as long as it can transmit a DTMF signal.

  FIG. 2 is a block diagram of the security sensor 1, and the intrusion detection unit 11 is composed of an infrared sensor module that detects human movement using infrared rays and the like, and an open / close switch composed of a contact switch and a magnet switch. When receiving the intrusion detection signal from the intrusion detection unit 11, the control unit 12 notifies the repeater 2 of intrusion detection via the sensor wireless communication unit 13. The sensor sound output unit 14 is a means for alarm output and is configured by a speaker or a buzzer, and outputs a signal from the sensor control unit 12 by sound. A plurality of security sensors 1 may be installed in the building.

  FIG. 3 is a block diagram of the repeater 2. The repeater wireless communication unit 21 performs signal conversion and transmission / reception for wireless communication with the security sensor 1, and the repeater control unit 22 receives input from the security sensor 1. When the detection signal is received, the intrusion detection is notified from the telephone line 3 to the mobile phone 5 via the repeater line communication unit 23, and the repeater voice output unit 24 is configured as a warning output by a speaker, a buzzer, etc. The signal from the controller control unit 22 is output by voice, the repeater display unit 25 displays a warning mode and an intrusion detection state, and the repeater operation unit 26 receives a request for setting and checking the warning mode and switching display contents. The repeater control unit 22 is notified of the input, and the repeater voice input unit 27 inputs the voice around the repeater 2 through a microphone or the like and notifies the mobile phone 5 via the telephone line 3.

  Next, the security system configured as described above will be described with reference to FIGS.

  First, the repeater 2 is set to the intrusion warning mode when going out. The setting of the alert mode is performed by an input from a key or a touch panel of the repeater operation unit 26 of the repeater 2 or an operation from the mobile phone 5.

  When the intrusion detection unit 11 of the security sensor 1 detects the intrusion and the sensor control unit 12 receives the intrusion detection signal, the intrusion detection is notified to the repeater 2 via the sensor wireless communication unit 13.

  When the repeater 2 receives the intrusion detection signal from the security sensor 1, the repeater 2 sounds an alarm sound for intrusion detection from the repeater audio output unit 24. Further, the mobile phone 5 is called via the telephone line 3 via the repeater line communication unit 23, and the mobile phone 5 notifies the intrusion detection by voice.

  When the mobile phone 5 is notified of the intrusion detection by voice, by pressing the “#” key of the mobile phone 5, the mobile phone 5 notifies the repeater 2 of the “#” DTMF signal. By receiving the “#” signal, the alarm sound from the repeater voice output unit 24 is stopped, and the voice around the repeater 2 is received by the repeater voice input unit 27 and notified to the mobile phone 5. As a result, the mobile phone 5 can monitor and confirm the sound around the repeater 2.

  Similarly, by pressing the “*” key of the mobile phone 5, the DTMF signal “*” is notified from the mobile phone 5 to the repeater 2, and the repeater 2 receives the “*” signal in the repeater 2. The alarm sound from the output unit 24 is stopped and the voice spoken by the mobile phone 5 is transmitted from the repeater 2 by the repeater audio output unit 24. As a result, it is possible to intimidate an intruder from the microphone of the mobile phone 5 via the repeater 2.

  Further, by pressing a numeric key (for example, “1”) of the mobile phone 5, a DTMF signal of “1” is notified from the mobile phone 5 to the repeater 2, and the repeater 2 receives the “1” signal. The security sensor 1 is requested to sound an alarm sound via the repeater wireless communication unit 21. The security sensor 1 receives an alarm sound request from the repeater 2 and causes the sensor sound output unit 14 to sound an alarm sound. Furthermore, when a plurality of security sensors 1 are installed, if an alarm sound blowing request is issued to all the security sensors 1, an alarm sound can be sounded not only at the entry point but throughout the house.

  As described above, an alarm sound can be emitted from a plurality of security sensors by pressing a key of a mobile phone that is a remote telephone. Thereby, an alarm sound can be sounded from the remote place to the place of the house.

  In this embodiment, the security sensor 1 only notifies the repeater 2 of the intrusion detection when an intrusion is detected. However, the control unit 12 gives an instruction to the audio output unit 14 at the time of intrusion detection or after a certain time. If a warning sound is made for a certain period of time, a threatening action against intrusion can be performed earlier. In this case, if the alarm sound that stops when the specific key “#” or “*” of the cellular phone 5 is pressed stops not only the alarm sound from the repeater 2 but also the alarm sound from the security sensor 1, It becomes easier to check the surrounding sound of the security sensor 1 and the repeater 2 when monitoring from the mobile phone 5.

  Further, if the security sensor 1 is provided with voice input means for the monitor of the mobile phone 5, the security sensor 1 can be operated by a key operation of the mobile phone 1 (for example, the security sensor 1a is selected by “# 1”). If it is possible to listen to the surrounding sound from the first voice input means with the mobile phone 5, it is possible to monitor the voice at a place where an intrusion has been detected or an anxious place.

  Further, if the security sensor 1 that sounds an alarm sound is selected by a key pressed on the mobile phone 5, an alarm sound can be sounded from the security sensor 1 at an arbitrary place, so a place that seems to be near an intruder. Intimidation alarm can be performed by selecting.

  In addition, the alarm sound from the security sensor 1 is output as the alarm sound stored in the security sensor 1 according to the instruction from the repeater 2. However, the alarm sound and the warning message stored in the repeater 2 are transmitted to the security sensor 1. If this is done, various alarms can be performed, and transmission of the remote mobile phone 5 can be transmitted to the security sensor via the repeater 2 and output from the security sensor 1. Arbitrary audio can be transmitted from a remote location via a security sensor.

  In the present embodiment, the voice output from the mobile phone 5 to the security sensor 1 is controlled by notification of a DTMF signal by pressing a key on the telephone line. However, Web communication is performed by Internet communication using the mobile phone 5 or a personal computer. If the control signal is notified to the repeater 2 by selecting the alarm sound blowing request to the security sensor 1 from the screen, and the request to sound the alarm sound from the repeater 2 to the security sensor 1 is sent, Fine switching such as selection of time, alarm interval, and alarm sound can be easily performed.

  In the present embodiment, the security sensor 1 and the repeater 2 communicate with each other wirelessly. However, if the communication is performed with a wired connection, the security sensor 1 may be supplied with power from the repeater. As a result, the power supply can be collectively managed and a wireless circuit is unnecessary, which is very effective in a place where wiring is possible.

  In the present embodiment, the communication network connecting the repeater 2 and the mobile phone 5 is the telephone line 3. However, if the communication network is the Internet, the IP phone can be used to make a call from the repeater 2 to the mobile phone 5 via the Internet. Or by transferring data to the server and making a call from the server to the mobile phone 5 or sending an e-mail, the communication network is not limited to a telephone line. If wireless communication is used instead of a wired line, the repeater 2 can be installed regardless of the location of the wired communication network, so the installation location is free.

  A communication device such as a personal computer or a personal digital assistant may be used instead of the mobile phone.

  In the present embodiment, voice and sound are output as alarm outputs from the security sensor 1 and the repeater 2. However, it is not necessary to use sound as long as a threatening operation such as flashlight is possible.

  Note that the means (unit) described in the present embodiment includes hardware resources such as a CPU (or microcomputer), a RAM, a ROM, a storage / recording device, an electrical / information device including an I / O, a computer, a server, and the like. You may implement in the form of the program made to cooperate. In the form of a program, new functions can be easily distributed / updated and installed by recording them on a recording medium such as magnetic media or optical media or distributing them via a communication line such as the Internet.

  Since the security system of the present invention can send a threatening instruction from a remote communication device to an intrusion through a security sensor, it can be applied to an alarm device when an intrusion is detected.
