  The voice processing unit 26 is connected to a microphone 27 and a speaker 28 for performing a voice call. The voice processing unit 26 performs voice processing by processing voice data during a call, and detects the volume of voice emitted by the user input through the microphone 27.

  The storage unit 29 is configured by a hard disk or flash memory built in the mobile terminal device 1, and includes an illumination information storage unit 29a that stores various types of information and stores information related to illumination.

  The operation unit 30 is provided with a touch panel unit 31 arranged on the screen of the display unit 20 and a key input unit 32 including various keys.

  The communication control unit 33 performs wireless communication with the wireless base station 40 via the antenna 33a, and performs processing such as an incoming call or a response to the incoming call.

  The clock unit 38 measures the time that is the system clock of the mobile terminal device 1 and notifies the control unit 10 of the time.

  The camera unit 39 images a subject and outputs the image data. The camera unit 39 is combined with the microphone 27 and the speaker 28 to realize a TV (TV) telephone function.

  The sensor unit 34 is provided with an illuminance sensor 35 (illuminance detection unit) that detects ambient brightness (peripheral illuminance) and an acceleration sensor 36 that detects the inclination of the housing of the mobile terminal device 1. In the present embodiment, the acceleration sensor 36 is a gyro sensor capable of detecting the inclination of the casing of the mobile terminal device 1, and is the casing of the mobile terminal device 1 vertically oriented with respect to the vertical direction (FIG. 2 ( B)), or whether it is in the horizontal direction can be detected (see FIG. 2C).

  The control unit 10 controls the operation of each unit of the mobile terminal device 1 and is configured by a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a ROM (Read Only Memory), and a RAM (Random Access Memory) built in the mobile terminal device 1. Has been. In addition, the control unit 10 includes a luminance level determination unit 11, a lighting information acquisition unit 13, a night determination unit 15, and a wakeup determination unit 17 as functions realized by the CPU executing a control program described later.

  On the other hand, the lighting device 5 includes a lighting unit 52, a light control unit 53, a control unit 54, a lighting information storage unit 56, and a wireless control unit 58.

  The control unit 54 controls the operation of each unit of the lighting device 5, and includes a CPU, a ROM, and a RAM built in the lighting device 5.

  The illumination unit 52 performs illumination according to an instruction from the light control unit 53.

  The light control unit 53 includes a light control inverter circuit, and adjusts the illumination of the illumination unit 52 to, for example, five levels of luminance levels in accordance with instructions from the control unit 54. In addition, it is also possible to adjust light continuously without a step.

  The illumination information storage unit 56 stores information on the current illumination device 5, such as a luminance level.

  The wireless control unit 58 performs wireless communication with the wireless control unit 22 on the mobile terminal device 1 side, and transmits / receives information regarding illumination as described above.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating the usage state of the mobile terminal device 1 and the illumination device 5. FIG. 2A shows an operation state when there is an incoming call and responds to this incoming call. When the user responds to an incoming call from the radio base station 40, the mobile terminal device 1 displays a message indicating that there is an incoming call on the screen of the display unit 20 and transmits a lighting instruction to the lighting device 5.

  FIG. 2B shows a state in which the casing of the mobile terminal device 1 is vertically oriented with respect to the vertical direction, and the user is getting up and talking. FIG. 2C shows a state in which the casing of the mobile terminal device 1 is sideways with respect to the horizontal direction, and the user is talking while lying down.

  The operation of the mobile terminal device 1 having the above configuration will be described. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an operation procedure when the mobile terminal device 1 receives an incoming call. This control program is stored in the ROM in the control unit 10, and is executed by the CPU in the control unit 10 using the incoming call as a trigger when the mobile terminal device 1 receives an incoming call.

  First, the control unit 10 determines whether or not the user has responded to the incoming call (S1). This response is made when the user presses a call button arranged on the key input unit 32 of the mobile terminal device 1. The process of step S1 is an example of a response detection unit. When not responding, the control unit 10 ends this operation.

  On the other hand, when the user responds to the incoming call (S1, YES), the control unit 10 performs night determination processing for determining whether it is night (S2). This night determination process will be described later with reference to FIG.

  As a result of the determination, the control unit 10 determines whether it is night (S3). When it is not nighttime (S3, NO), the control unit 10 ends this operation. On the other hand, when it is night (S3, YES), the control unit 10 performs a wake-up determination process to determine whether or not the user wakes up (S4). This wake-up determination process will be described later with reference to FIG.

  As a result of this determination, the control unit 10 determines whether or not the user is getting up (S5). When the user does not wake up (S5, NO), the control unit 10 ends this operation. On the other hand, when waking up (S5, YES), the control unit 10 acquires illumination information from the illumination device 5 via the wireless control unit 22, and stores the illumination information in the illumination information storage unit 29a in the storage unit 29 (S6). ).

  The control part 10 discriminate | determines whether it is necessary to light the illuminating device 5 based on this acquired illumination information (S7). When it is not necessary to turn on (S7, NO), that is, when the lighting device 5 has already been turned on at a predetermined luminance level, the control unit 10 ends this operation.

  On the other hand, when it is necessary to turn on the illumination device 5 (S7, YES), the control unit 10 determines an instruction to increase the luminance level by one step (S8). The instruction to increase the luminance level by one step is an instruction to change the luminance level from the value 0 to the value 1 when the lighting device 5 is turned off, for example. In accordance with this determination, the control unit 10 instructs the lighting device 5 to turn on via the wireless control unit 22 (S9).

  The controller 10 determines whether or not the luminance level of the lighting device 5 has reached a predetermined level, that is, the maximum level or a preset level (S10). When the maximum level or the preset level has not been reached (S10, NO), the control unit 10 waits until a predetermined time elapses (S11). When the predetermined time has elapsed (S11, YES), the control unit 10 returns to the process of step S8. This fixed time can be arbitrarily set such as 3 seconds or 5 seconds.

  When the maximum level or a preset level is reached in step S10 (S10, YES), the control unit 10 waits until the call ends (S12). The process of step S12 is an example of a call end determination unit. When the call is finished (S12, YES), the control unit 10 instructs the lighting device 5 before the incoming call, that is, a lighting instruction to the lighting device 5 via the wireless control unit 22 based on the lighting information stored in the lighting information storage unit 29a. An instruction to return to the illumination state before performing is performed (S13). Thereafter, the control unit 10 ends this operation.

  FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the night judgment processing procedure in step S2. When determining whether it is night, in this embodiment, determination is performed using time. Further, instead of using the time, the determination may be made using ambient illuminance. Furthermore, these may be combined, and only when it is determined that it is night, it may be determined that it is night.

  FIG. 4A is a flowchart showing a procedure for determining the night using the time. The control unit 10 acquires the current time from the clock unit 38 (S21). The control unit 10 determines whether or not the acquired current time is within a specific time range (S22). As a specific time range, for example, a range from 23:00 to 6 o'clock can be mentioned. The specific time range is registered in the storage unit 29, and can be arbitrarily changed according to the season or individual circumstances.

  When the current time is in a specific time range (S22, YES), the control unit 10 determines that it is night (S23). On the other hand, when the current time is not in the specific time range in step S22 (S22, NO), the control unit 10 determines that it is not night (S24). After the process of step S23 or step S24, the control unit 10 returns to the original process.

  In this way, the portable terminal device 1 can make an accurate determination by using the time when determining at night. Moreover, the portable terminal device 1 can be set according to the lifestyle of the user by setting the bedtime in a specific time range.

  FIG. 4B is a flowchart illustrating a procedure for determining nighttime using ambient illuminance. The control unit 10 detects ambient illuminance by the illuminance sensor 35 (S31). The controller 10 determines whether or not the detected ambient illuminance is below a certain level (below a predetermined value) (S32). This certain level can be arbitrarily changed according to individual circumstances.

  When the surrounding illuminance is below a certain level (S32, YES), the control unit 10 determines that it is night (S33). On the other hand, when the surrounding illuminance is not below a certain level in step S32 (S32, NO), the control unit 10 determines that it is not night (S34). After the process of step S33 or step S34, the control unit 10 returns to the original process.

  Thus, the portable terminal device 1 can perform illumination control similar to that at night when the room is darkened not only at night but also in the daytime by using ambient illuminance when determining at night. .

  FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the wake-up determination processing procedure in step S4. In the present embodiment, when determining whether or not the user is getting up, the determination is performed using the inclination of the mobile terminal device 1. Further, instead of using the inclination, the determination may be made using the utterance volume at the time of a call. Furthermore, these may be combined, and only when it is determined that all have risen, may be determined to wake up.

  FIG. 5A is a flowchart illustrating a procedure for determining a wake-up using the inclination of the mobile terminal device 1. The control unit 10 detects the inclination of the mobile terminal device 1 by the acceleration sensor 36 (S41).

  The control unit 10 determines whether or not the inclination of the mobile terminal device 1 detected by the acceleration sensor 36 is within a predetermined angle range for a predetermined time (S42). For example, when the angle in the longitudinal direction of the casing of the mobile terminal device 1 is in an angle range (predetermined angle range) of about 80 to 90 degrees with respect to the horizontal plane, the casing of the mobile terminal device 1 is in the vertical orientation. It is judged. Moreover, the fixed time is, for example, 5 seconds.

  When the inclination of the mobile terminal device 1 is within a predetermined angle range for a certain time (S42, YES), the control unit 10 determines that the user is getting up as shown in FIG. S43). On the other hand, in step S42, when the inclination of the mobile terminal device 1 is not within the predetermined angle range for a certain time (S42, NO), the control unit 10 wakes up as shown in FIG. It is determined that it is not present (S44). After the process of step S43 or step S44, the control unit 10 returns to the original process.

  As described above, when the mobile terminal device 1 is in the vertical orientation, a case where the user wakes up and is talking with the mobile terminal device 1 is assumed. On the other hand, when the mobile terminal device 1 is in the landscape orientation, a case where a phone call is made while sleeping on a bed or a futon is assumed. In this case, since the lighting device 5 is not turned on, it becomes easy to go to bed without being angry and after the call ends.

  FIG. 5B is a flowchart showing a procedure for determining a wake-up using the utterance volume during a call. The control unit 10 detects the utterance volume at the time of a call performed through the microphone 27 by the voice processing unit 26 (S51). The process of step S51 is an example of a volume detection unit. The control unit 10 determines whether or not the detected volume is equal to or greater than a predetermined value (greater than a certain value) for a certain time (S52). The fixed time and the fixed value can be arbitrarily set according to individual differences.

  When the volume is equal to or higher than a predetermined value for a predetermined time (S52, YES), the control unit 10 determines that the user is getting up (S53). On the other hand, when the volume is not greater than or equal to the predetermined value for a certain time (less than the certain value) (S52, NO), the control unit 10 determines that the user has not woken up (S54). That is, it is determined that the person is not getting up when he / she cares for a person sleeping around and speaks quietly. After the process of step S53 or step S54, the control unit 10 returns to the original process.

  As described above, when determining whether or not the mobile terminal device 1 is awake, it is not necessary to provide a separate sensor by using the microphone used for the call, and the number of components can be reduced. Also, when talking in a quiet voice, there may be cases where you do not want to turn on the lighting device, such as when other people are sleeping, and in such cases, the lighting device is prevented from turning on automatically. Is done.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining a method of determining the luminance level. FIG. 6A shows a case where the illumination is gradually (stepwise) brightened from the night illumination state at the time of incoming call response. As described above, the illumination device 5 can set the luminance level in five stages. In this embodiment, the number of steps of the luminance level of the lighting device 5 is, for example, five. However, the luminance level is not limited to five, and an arbitrary number of steps is preset as the specification of the lighting device 5. For example, when the lighting device 5 is set to have five levels of luminance levels, the lighting device 5 increases the luminance level by one level in response to a one-level increase instruction of the luminance level from the terminal device. Further, when the lighting device 5 has a function capable of continuously dimming in a stepless manner, the luminance level from the terminal device is increased in a stepless manner. Here, it is assumed that the illumination at night is set to a luminance level 0, that is, off (OFF).

  When there is an incoming call and the user answers, the luminance level is set to “1” in five stages in the first lighting instruction. Then, when a certain time elapses, the level is increased by 1, and the luminance level is set to “2” in 5 levels. Similarly, when a certain time elapses, the level is increased by one step, and the luminance level is set to “2” in five steps. This operation is repeated until the maximum level or a preset level is reached. As a result, it is possible to make a call under a bright situation.

  FIG. 6B shows a case where the lighting during a call is returned to the lighting before the incoming call. If the brightness level of the illumination is “5” in 5 stages during a call, when the call is finished, the illumination is turned off and the brightness level becomes “0” in 5 stages. Note that the light may be turned off gradually (stepwise) as in the case of lighting.

  According to the terminal device of the first embodiment, it is possible to automatically turn on the lighting device when it is assumed that the lighting device is to be turned on, not at the time of incoming call but at the time of response to the incoming call. As a result, an environment suitable for a telephone call can be quickly established. That is, since the lighting device is turned on only when there is an incoming call and responds while sleeping, it is possible to make a call in a bright environment. Moreover, when it does not respond, it remains off and does not disturb bedtime. In addition, it is possible to save the trouble of turning on the lighting device by oneself and to save the trouble of turning off the lighting device by itself when the call is finished.

  Also, by gradually increasing the brightness level, glare caused by sudden lighting can be prevented, and comfortable calls can be made. Further, by acquiring the brightness level at the time of answering an incoming call, it is possible to prevent the lighting instruction from being performed when the lighting is already on. In addition, after the call is finished, the original brightness can be automatically restored.

  Note that the tilt of the mobile terminal device or the volume of speech during a call was used to determine whether the user was getting up. However, in the case of a terminal device that can use a videophone, there was a response on the videophone. You may use that.

  FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the wake-up determination processing procedure in step S4 when a videophone is used. First, the control unit 10 detects a response method when there is a response to an incoming call (S61). Response methods include an automatic response, a normal call, and a video phone response.

  The control unit 10 determines whether or not the detected response method is a videophone response (S62). If the response is a videophone call (S62, YES), the control unit 10 determines that the user is getting up (S63).

  On the other hand, when the response is not a videophone call (S62, NO), the control unit 10 determines that the user has not woken up (S64). After the process of step S63 or step S64, the control unit 10 returns to the original process.

  This makes it possible to quickly brighten the captured image transmitted to the other party when making a videophone call. In addition, since it is desired to turn on the lighting device during a videophone call, it is possible to save the trouble of lighting.

(Second Embodiment)
In the first embodiment, the case where the mobile terminal device turns on one lighting device at the time of an incoming call response is shown. However, in the second embodiment, the case where the mobile terminal device lights up a plurality of lighting devices at the time of an incoming call response. Show.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of the mobile terminal device 1b and the plurality of illumination devices 5A, 5B, and 5C according to the second embodiment. About the same component as 1st Embodiment, the description is abbreviate | omitted by attaching | subjecting the same code | symbol. Here, configurations and operations different from those of the first embodiment will be described.

  As described above, the plurality of lighting devices 5A, 5B, and 5C are different types of lighting fixtures. For example, the lighting devices 5A, 5B, and 5C are a table stand, a pendant light, a ceiling light, and the like, each having a different installation location.

  The plurality of lighting devices 5A, 5B, and 5C have substantially the same configuration, and the dimming unit is omitted, unlike the lighting device 5 of the first embodiment. That is, in lighting devices 5A, 5B, and 5C, only lighting on / off is controlled. Other configurations are the same as those of the illumination device 5 of the first embodiment.

  On the other hand, the brightness level determination unit 11 of the first embodiment is omitted from the control unit 10b of the mobile terminal device 1b, and a lighting device designation unit 12 is provided instead. The lighting device specifying unit 12 is a function realized by the CPU in the control unit 10b executing a control program. Other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment.

  FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing a lighting operation procedure when the mobile terminal device 1b receives an incoming call. This control program is stored in the ROM in the control unit 10b, and when the mobile terminal device 1b receives an incoming call, the control program is executed by the CPU in the control unit 10b using the incoming call as a trigger. The same step process as in the first embodiment is omitted.

  Based on the illumination information of the plurality of illumination devices 5A, 5B, and 5C acquired in step S6, the control unit 10b determines whether or not the illumination device needs to be turned on in step S7. At this time, the control unit 10b links the response at the time of the incoming call and lighting of each of the lighting devices 5A, 5B, and 5C. If any one of the plurality of lighting devices 5A, 5B, and 5C is not turned on, the lighting is turned on. Judge that it is necessary.

  When it is determined in step S7 that the lighting device needs to be turned on (S7, YES), the control unit 10b designates the lighting device (lighting device) according to a preset order (priority order) (S8A). . The control unit 10b instructs lighting in the order of the designated lighting device (S9). The designated lighting device is turned on according to a lighting instruction from the control unit 10b.

  Thereafter, the controller 10b determines whether or not each lighting device 5A, 5B, 5C has been instructed to be turned on (S10A). When the lighting of all the lighting devices 5A, 5B, and 5C is not instructed (S10A, NO), the control unit 10 waits until a predetermined time elapses (S11). Is turned on, the process returns to step S8A. Thereby, all the illuminating devices 5A, 5B, and 5C are lighted in order.

  When the call is finished in step S12 (S12, YES), the control unit 10b instructs all of the lighting devices 5A, 5B, and 5C to return to the lighting state before the incoming call, that is, before the lighting instruction is given ( S13). At this time, an instruction is issued in the reverse order to the lighting in step S9. In addition, the lighting device that has been turned on before the lighting instruction in step S9 continues to be turned on even after the processing in step S13.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating the lighting operation of the plurality of lighting devices 5A, 5B, and 5C. FIG. 10A shows a lighting operation when responding to an incoming call. When there is an incoming call and responds while sleeping, etc., the lighting device 5A, which is a table lamp, is first turned on according to a preset order. Next, the lighting device 5B which is a pendant light is turned on. Finally, the illumination device 5C that is a ceiling light is turned on.

  FIG. 10B shows a turn-off operation at the end of the call. When the call ends, it returns to the state before the incoming call in the reverse order of lighting. Here, it is assumed that all the lighting devices 5A, 5B, and 5C are turned off before the incoming call. First, the illumination device 5C that is a ceiling light is turned off, and then the illumination device 5B that is a pendant light is turned off. Finally, the illumination device 5A, which is a table stand, is turned off.

  As described above, according to the terminal device of the second embodiment, when there are a plurality of illumination devices, it is possible to gradually increase the brightness by lighting them one by one in order.

  In the present embodiment, since only lighting on / off is controlled, the lighting devices 5A, 5B, and 5C are not provided with a dimming unit that can adjust the luminance level in multiple stages. You may do it. Then, when each lighting device is turned on, the luminance level may be gradually increased when an incoming call is received, or when the lighting device is turned off, the luminance level may be gradually decreased.

(Third embodiment)
In the first embodiment, at the time of a response to an incoming call, control that automatically interlocks with the lighting device is performed, but in the third embodiment, a response that interlocks with the lighting device (hereinafter referred to as an illumination interlocking response). The case where a user can set arbitrarily is shown.

  Since the mobile terminal device 1 of the third embodiment has almost the same configuration as that of the first embodiment, the description thereof is omitted by giving the same reference numerals. Here, configurations and operations different from those of the first embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating the operation of the mobile terminal device 1 according to the third embodiment. In the third embodiment, the key input unit 32 includes a response button 32a for responding to an incoming call, an illumination-linked response button 32b for setting an illumination-linked response, and a hold for holding an incoming call. A button 32c is provided.

  When there is an incoming call, when the user presses the response button 32a, a response such as a voice call becomes possible. When the user presses the illumination interlocking response button 32b, the lighting control of the illumination device 5 described above is performed simultaneously with the response. The illumination-linked response button 32b corresponds to an operation unit that receives an instruction to switch lighting control between valid and invalid. When the user presses the hold button 32c, the incoming call is put on hold.

  FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing a lighting operation procedure when the mobile terminal device 1 receives an incoming call. This operation program is stored in the ROM in the control unit 10 and is executed by the CPU in the control unit 10 when the mobile terminal device 1 receives an incoming call. The same step process as in the first embodiment is omitted.

  First, the control unit 10 determines whether or not the illumination interlocking response button 32b is pressed (S71). When the illumination interlocking response button 32b is not pressed, the control unit 10 ends this operation.

  On the other hand, when the illumination interlocking response button 32b is pressed, the control unit 10 proceeds to the process of step S73 and performs the above-described illumination information acquisition operation. That is, the processes of steps S73 to S80 are the same as the processes of steps S6 to S13 of the first embodiment, respectively, and thus description thereof is omitted.

  As described above, according to the terminal device of the third embodiment, the user can set whether or not to interlock with the lighting device on his / her own will. Thereby, the operativity of a terminal device can be improved. It should be noted that the function of setting the illumination-linked response by pressing the illumination-linked response button is for one lighting device as shown in the first embodiment, but in the second embodiment, As shown, it may be for multiple lighting devices.
