  Then, the music selection unit 13a refers to the reproduction history information 12c and the user information 12a, and selects the music ID “A01” corresponding to the attribute information “male” / “20s” and the position information “Kobe City” (same as above). (See (A-5) in the figure).

  Specifically, the music selection unit 13a specifies the user ID associated with the position information “Kobe City” from the reproduction history information 12c. Here, as shown in FIG. 4C, the user ID “0002” and the user ID “0003” are applicable. Subsequently, the music selection unit 13a refers to the user information 12a and further specifies the user information associated with the attribute information “male” / “20s” among the specified user IDs. Here, as shown in FIG. 4A, the user ID “0002” corresponds. Then, the music selection unit 13a selects the music ID “A01” associated with the user ID “0002” and the position information “Kobe City”.

  Subsequently, as shown in (B) of the figure, in the music distribution device 10, the music distribution unit 13b distributes the music information selected by the music selection unit 13a to the portable terminal device 20 ((( See B-1)). Further, in the mobile terminal device 20, the reproduction processing unit 24c transmits the music information received from the music distribution device 10 to the in-vehicle device 30 via the short-range communication unit 22 (see (B-2) in the figure). And in the vehicle-mounted apparatus 30, the reproduction | regeneration processing part 34b reproduces | regenerates the music information received from the portable terminal device 20 (refer (B-3) of the figure).

  Next, an operation example of update processing of the reproduction history information 12c stored in the music distribution device 10 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an operation example of the reproduction history information update process.

  As shown in the figure, in the mobile terminal device 20, when the music information from the in-vehicle device 30 is started to be reproduced, during reproduction or at the end of reproduction (see (1) in the figure), the history transmission unit 24d acquires the position information. The position information is acquired from the unit 23, and address conversion of the acquired position information is performed (see (2) in the figure).

  Then, in the mobile terminal device 20, the history transmission unit 24d transmits the reproduction history information including the user ID, the position information, and the music ID to the music distribution device 10 (see (3) in the figure). Here, as shown in (3) of the figure, it is assumed that reproduction history information including the user ID “0001”, the position information “Kobe City”, and the music ID “A01” is transmitted.

  On the other hand, in the music distribution device 10, when the update processing unit 13c receives the playback history information from the mobile terminal device 20, the update processing unit 13c updates the playback history information 12c stored in the storage unit 12 based on the received playback history information. As a result, the reproduction history information shown in (3) of the figure is added to the reproduction history information 12c (see (4) of the figure).

  As described above, when the music information is reproduced from the in-vehicle device 30, the history transmission unit 24 d of the mobile terminal device 20 displays the reproduction history information including the position information acquired by the position information acquisition unit 23 as the music distribution device 10. The update processing unit 13c of the music distribution device 10 updates the playback history information 12c stored in the storage unit 12 based on the playback history information transmitted by the mobile terminal device 20.

  Accordingly, each record company can easily grasp in what region and in what attribute the music held by the company is viewed by the user. Moreover, since the reproduction history information is transmitted when the music information is reproduced from the in-vehicle device 30, the music distribution center or the record company can more strongly estimate that the music is reproduced in the car. In addition, a user who has been introduced to a trendy music piece in a certain region can promote the further trend of the trendy music piece by viewing the trendy music piece.

  Next, user behavior pattern learning processing will be described with reference to FIGS. 8 and 9. First, an operation example in the case of updating learning information will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an operation example of the learning process.

  As shown in the figure, in the mobile terminal device 20, the history transmission unit 24d establishes the communication link when the communication link is established with the in-vehicle device 30 or when the communication link is released. The time or release time is specified (see (1) in the figure). In addition, the history transmission unit 24d acquires the position information from the position information acquisition unit 23 and performs address conversion of the acquired position information (see (2) in the figure).

  Subsequently, in the mobile terminal device 20, the history transmission unit 24 d transmits the action pattern information including the user ID, the position information, and the communication link establishment time (or release time) to the music distribution device 10 (the same figure). (See (3)). Here, as shown in (3) of the figure, it is assumed that the action pattern information including the user ID “0001”, the position information “Kobe City”, and the release time “14:00” is transmitted.

  On the other hand, in the music distribution device 10, when the learning unit 13d receives the behavior pattern information from the mobile terminal device 20, the learning unit 12d updates the learning information 12d stored in the storage unit 13 based on the received behavior pattern information ((( 4)).

  Specifically, as shown in (4) of the figure, the learning information 12d includes, for each user ID, an “expected boarding position” item, an “expected boarding time” item, an “rear vehicle expected time” item, and “ This is information in which “estimated boarding time” is associated.

  Here, the “predicted boarding position” item is an item in which position information of the predicted boarding position of the user is stored. In the case of (4) in the figure, “Kobe City” is stored. The learning unit 12d stores the position information with the highest frequency included in the behavior pattern information in the “predicted boarding position” item.

  In addition, the “expected boarding time” item and the “expected getting off time” item are items in which a time at which the user is expected to get on the vehicle and a time at which the user is expected to get off the vehicle are stored, respectively. In the case of (4) in the figure, “13:00” and “14:00” are stored, respectively.

  The learning unit 12d stores the establishment time included in the behavior pattern information received this time and the average time of the establishment times included in the behavior pattern information received so far in the “estimated boarding time” item. Similarly, the learning unit 12d stores the average time of release times in the “estimated getting off time” item. Further, the learning unit 12d stores, in the “estimated boarding time” item, a time obtained by subtracting the time stored in the “estimated boarding time” item from the time stored in the “estimated boarding time” item.

  Next, a music selection process using each item of the learning information 12d shown in (4) of FIG. 8 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an operation example of music selection processing using learning information. Note that (A) in the figure shows an example of operation when music information is distributed in advance based on the estimated boarding time, and (B) in the figure shows a distribution schedule for music information based on the estimated boarding time. An example of operation when knitting is shown.

  As shown to (A) of the figure, in the music distribution device 10, the music selection unit 13a determines the time five minutes before the “boarding estimated time” included in the learning information 12d as the preceding distribution time of the music information. (See (A-1) in the figure). Here, since “13:00” is stored in the “estimated boarding time” item, the music selection unit 13a determines 5 minutes before “13:00” as the preceding delivery time. Note that the music selection unit 13a may determine the “estimated boarding time” itself as the preceding delivery time.

  Subsequently, the music selection unit 13a selects the music information to be delivered in advance using the “user ID” and the “predicted boarding position” included in the learning information 12d (see (A-2) in the figure). Here, since the user ID “0001” and the expected boarding position “Kobe City” are included, the music selection unit 13a selects the music information of the music ID “A01”. The specific operation of this point is as described with reference to (A-4) and (A-5) of FIG.

  Then, in the music distribution device 10, the music distribution unit 13b distributes the music information of the music ID “A01” five minutes before “13:00” (see (A-3) in the figure).

  As described above, the history transmission unit 24d of the mobile terminal device 20 gives the behavior distribution information including the time and position information when the communication link is established with the in-vehicle device 30 to the music distribution device 10 by the cooperation unit 24a. Then, the learning unit 13d of the music distribution device 10 learns the expected boarding time and boarding position of the user of the mobile terminal device 20 based on the behavior pattern information transmitted by the mobile terminal device 20.

  In addition, when the music distribution apparatus 10 arrives at the estimated boarding time learned by the learning unit 13d or a predetermined time earlier than the estimated boarding time, the music distribution apparatus 10 is associated with the position information of the expected boarding position and the user attribute information. The music information is selected and distributed to the mobile terminal device 20 in advance.

  Therefore, since the music information is distributed in advance to the mobile terminal device 20 before the user gets on the vehicle or at the timing of getting on the vehicle, the user distributes the music that is popular in the area where the user gets on the music distribution device. You can watch immediately without waiting for delivery from 10.

  Next, an operation example when a music information distribution schedule is organized based on the estimated boarding time will be described with reference to FIG.

  As shown in (B) of the figure, in the music distribution device 10, when the music selection unit 13a receives a distribution request from the mobile terminal device 20, it corresponds to the “estimated boarding time” included in the learning information 12d. The distribution schedule is organized (see (B-1) in the figure). Here, since “1h” is stored in the “estimated boarding time” item, the music selection unit 13a organizes a distribution schedule corresponding to one hour.

  Specifically, the music selection unit 13a selects the number of pieces of music information corresponding to the “estimated boarding time” from the music information corresponding to the distribution request. In such a case, the music selection unit 13a may preferentially select music information (for example, music information of a user's favorite genre) having a high degree of coincidence with the user's preference information. It is assumed that user preference information is stored in advance in the storage unit 12 as user information 12a.

  Then, in the music distribution device 10, the music distribution unit 13b distributes the music information to the mobile terminal device 20 according to the organized distribution schedule (see (B-2) in the figure).

  As described above, the history transmission unit 24d of the mobile terminal device 20 further transmits the behavior pattern information including the time when the communication link established by the cooperation unit 24a is released to the music distribution device 10, and the music distribution device. Ten learning units 13d learn the estimated ride time of the user of the mobile terminal device 10 based on the time when the communication link is established and the time when the communication link is released.

  In addition, when the music selection unit 13a of the music distribution device 10 receives a distribution request from the mobile terminal device 20, learning is performed from the music information associated with the position information of the mobile terminal device 20 and the user attribute information. The number of pieces of music information corresponding to the estimated boarding time learned by the unit 13d is further selected. Therefore, it is possible to distribute music information having contents suitable for the user's boarding time.

  By the way, a user may use a plurality of vehicles such as getting on a work vehicle on weekdays and getting on a private vehicle on holidays. Therefore, the music information to be distributed may be different for each vehicle on board. Hereinafter, such a case will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an operation example in the case where the distribution pattern is changed according to the vehicle on which the vehicle is boarded. Note that (A) in the figure shows an outline, and (B) in the figure shows an operation example.

  As shown to (A) of the figure, the music selection part 13a of the music delivery apparatus 10 can change a delivery pattern according to the combination of the portable terminal device 20 and the vehicle-mounted apparatus 30. FIG. For example, when the mobile terminal device 20 with the user ID “0001” and the mobile ID “aaaa” establishes a communication link with the in-vehicle device 30a with the in-vehicle ID “xxx”, the music selection unit 13a The music information centering on “J-POP” is distributed using A. The vehicle-mounted ID is identification information assigned to each vehicle-mounted device 30.

  When the mobile terminal device 20 establishes a communication link with the in-vehicle device 30b with the in-vehicle ID “zzz”, the music selection unit 13a uses the distribution pattern B as the center for “Western music”. Distribute music information.

  Specifically, as shown in (B) of the figure, in the mobile terminal device 20, when the cooperation unit 24a establishes a communication link with the in-vehicle device 30a ((B-1) of the figure) The distribution request unit 24b obtains the vehicle-mounted ID from the vehicle-mounted device 30a (see (B-2) in the figure).

  Subsequently, in the mobile terminal device 20, the distribution request unit 24b transmits a distribution request including the user ID, the position information, and the in-vehicle ID to the music distribution device 10 (see (B-3) in the figure). In this case, as shown in (B-3) of the figure, a distribution request including the user ID “0001”, the location information “Kobe City”, and the vehicle-mounted ID “xxx” is transmitted.

  Subsequently, in the music distribution device 10, the music selection unit 13 a selects a distribution pattern A corresponding to the combination of the mobile ID “aaaa” and the vehicle-mounted ID “xxx” associated with the user ID “0001” (in the figure). (Refer to (B-4)). Then, the music selection unit 13a selects the music information corresponding to the distribution pattern A (here) from the music information corresponding to the attribute information associated with the user ID “0001” and the position information “Kobe City” included in the distribution request. Then, music information whose genre is “J-POP” is selected.

  Thus, when the communication link is established between the in-vehicle device 30 and the mobile terminal device 20, the in-vehicle ID is transmitted to the mobile terminal device 20, and the distribution request unit 24b of the mobile terminal device 20 The distribution request including the vehicle-mounted ID received from 30 and the position information acquired from the position information acquisition unit 23 is transmitted to the music distribution apparatus 10.

  Further, when the music selection unit 13a of the music distribution device 10 receives a distribution request from the mobile terminal device 20, the mobile phone device 10 selects the mobile information from the music information associated with the location information of the mobile terminal device 10 and the user attribute information. The music information corresponding to the combination of the portable ID of the terminal device 10 and the vehicle-mounted ID included in the distribution request is further selected. Therefore, even if the user drives the vehicle only within the same region, the user can view different music for each vehicle.

  By the way, although it has been assumed heretofore that the user views the music information alone, the present invention is not limited to this. That is, the music information may be viewed by a plurality of users who ride on the vehicle. Therefore, hereinafter, a case where music information is distributed in consideration of a combination of passengers will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an operation example in the case where music information is distributed in consideration of the combination of passengers. Note that (A) in the figure shows an example of the passenger combination, (B) in the figure shows another example of the reproduction history information 12c, and (C) in the figure shows the passenger's combination. Examples of operations for selecting music information corresponding to combinations are shown.

  As shown to (A) of the same figure, the vehicle which mounts the vehicle-mounted apparatus 30 has two persons, a woman in their 20s and a man in their 20s. Here, it is assumed that both have portable terminal devices. In addition, it is assumed that user attribute information is stored in the mobile terminal devices possessed by both.

  As shown in FIG. 5B, in the reproduction history information 12c, a “position information” item and a “music ID” item are associated with a combination of attribute information. For example, in the case shown in (B) of the figure, the combination of the attribute information of the gender “male” / age “20s” and the attribute information of the gender “female” / age “20s” (combination name “20 The teenage couple ”) is associated with the position information“ Kobe City ”and the music ID“ A02 ”.

  As shown to (C) of the figure, each passenger transmits attribute information with respect to the vehicle-mounted apparatus 30 using each portable terminal device 20a, 20b (refer to (C-1) of the figure). . Moreover, in the vehicle-mounted apparatus 30, the cooperation part 34a transmits the attribute information received within predetermined time to one portable terminal device 20b as combination information (refer to (C-2) of the figure). In addition, the cooperation part 34a should just transmit combination information with respect to the vehicle-mounted apparatus 30 and the portable terminal device 20 which established the communication link previously.

  Subsequently, in the mobile terminal device 20b that has received the combination information from the in-vehicle device 30, the distribution request unit 24b transmits a distribution request including the combination information and the position information to the music distribution device 10 ((C -3)).

  In the music distribution device 10, the music selection unit 13a selects music information corresponding to the combination information and the position information included in the distribution request received from the mobile terminal device 20b (see (C-4) in the figure). . Here, the music selection unit 13a receives the combination information of “20's couple” and the position information “Kobe City”, and therefore selects the music information of the music ID “A02” as the music information corresponding thereto. In the music distribution device 10, the music distribution unit 13 b distributes the selected music information to the mobile terminal device 20 b, and in the mobile terminal device 20 b, the reproduction processing unit 24 c sends the music information to the in-vehicle device 30. To play.

  As described above, the reproduction history information 12c includes the music information reproduced from the in-vehicle device 30 by the reproduction processing unit 24c, the combination of the passenger's attribute information to the vehicle, and the position information of the portable terminal device 20 during reproduction of the music information. The in-vehicle device 30 stores the attribute information of the passengers in the vehicle and transmits the acquired attribute information to the mobile terminal device 20.

  Further, if the distribution request unit 24b of the mobile terminal device 20 acquires a plurality of attribute information from the in-vehicle device 30 when a communication link is established with the in-vehicle device 30 by the cooperation unit 24a, the acquired attribute information And a distribution request including the position information acquired from the position information acquisition unit 23 is transmitted to the music distribution device 10, and the music selection unit 13 a of the music distribution device 10 receives the distribution request from the mobile terminal device 20. In this case, the music information associated with the combination of the attribute information and the position information included in the distribution request is selected.

  Therefore, when the user is on board with a plurality of people, it is possible to distribute not only the music information considering only one user but also the music information considering the passengers in the vehicle.

  In addition, although the case where attribute information is transmitted from the mobile terminal devices 20a and 20b of each passenger to the in-vehicle device 30 has been described here, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the in-vehicle device 30 may receive input of attribute information for each passenger, and may transmit the input attribute information to the mobile terminal device 20 that has established a communication link with the in-vehicle device 30. Thereby, even when a passenger (for example, a child) who does not have the mobile terminal device 20 gets on, appropriate combination information can be transmitted.

  Next, a processing procedure executed among the music distribution device 10, the mobile terminal device 20, and the in-vehicle device 30 will be described with reference to FIG.
