When the setting related to use is selected (step S1208), the user registration unit 271 displays a use setting screen on the terminal device 300 or the computer that has made the login request (step S1209). The usage setting screen of the present embodiment may be, for example, a screen that allows the user information to be updated or the notification destination setting to be updated.

  When update of user information is selected on the use setting screen (step S1210), the table updating unit 278 updates the user information table 210 according to the setting content (step S1211), and the process returns to step S1208.

  When update of the notification destination setting is selected on the usage setting screen (step S1210), the table update unit 278 updates the value of each item of the notification setting table 220 according to the setting content (step S1212), and step The process returns to S1208.

  When the setting related to the terminal device 300 is selected on the menu screen (step S1208), the user registration unit 271 displays the registration / update screen of the terminal device 300 on the terminal device 300 or the computer that has made the login request. (Step S1213).

  The registration / update screen of the present embodiment may be, for example, a screen for selecting either registration of a new terminal device 300 or update of information of the terminal device 300.

  When updating of information of the terminal device 300 is selected on the registration / update screen (step S1214), the user registration unit 271 accepts a change to the value of the item included in the device information table 240 (step S1215). Subsequently, the table update unit 278 updates the device information table 240 in accordance with the accepted change (step S1216), and proceeds to step S1208.

  When registration of the terminal device 300 is selected on the registration / update screen (step S1214), the user registration unit 271 acquires a device type and a terminal name input by the user. In addition, the user registration unit 271 acquires the MAC address transmitted from the terminal device 300 (step S1217).

  Subsequently, the table update unit 278 creates the device information table 240 and sets the table ID of the user information table 210 to the value of the user information table ID of the device status table (step S1218). At this time, the table updating unit 278 may store the value acquired in step S1216 in the device information table 240.

  Subsequently, the table updating unit 278 creates a device state table 230 associated with the registered terminal device 300 (step S1219), and the process proceeds to step S1208.

  In the present embodiment, the user information table 210, the notification setting table 220, and the device information table 240 are created by the above processing.

  Next, the overall operation of the incoming call notification server 200 of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 13 is a flowchart for explaining the overall operation of the incoming call notification server. Note that the processing in FIG. 11 is processing for notifying the terminal device 300 of the user who has been registered by the user registration unit 271 of the incoming call.

  The incoming call notification server 200 of this embodiment acquires usage status information from each terminal device 300 by the usage status information acquisition unit 272 (step S1301). Subsequently, the incoming call notification server 200 executes a process of assigning a priority for each terminal device 300 according to the usage status information by the priority assigning unit 273 (step S1302).

  Next, the incoming call notification server 200 determines the result of user authentication by the terminal device 300 using the authentication result determination unit 275, and the terminal that is the notification destination of incoming calls according to the authentication result using the notification destination specifying unit 274. The device 300 is specified (step S1303).

  Subsequently, the incoming call notification server 200 notifies the specified terminal device 300 of the incoming call by the notification unit 276 (step S1304).

  Details of each step shown in FIG. 13 will be described below. FIG. 14 is a flowchart illustrating the processing of the usage status information acquisition unit. The process of FIG. 14 shows the details of the process of step S1301 of FIG.

  The incoming call notification server 200 of this embodiment accepts incoming call notification requests from various servers (step S1401). The various servers include, for example, a mail server 1, an SNS (Social Networking Service) server 2, a telephone server 3, and the like.

  Subsequently, the incoming call notification server 200 uses the usage status information acquisition unit 272 to refer to the account table 260 to identify the user ID to be notified, and acquires the user information table 210 corresponding to the identified user ID. (Step S1402).

  Next, the usage status information acquisition unit 272 acquires a device information table 240, a notification destination device table 250, and a device status table 230 related to the user information table 210 from the user information table 210 (step S1403). Specifically, the usage status information acquisition unit 272 acquires the device information table 240 including the ID of the user information table 210, and acquires the notification destination device table 250 having the ID of the device information table 240. In addition, the usage status information acquisition unit 272 acquires the device status table 230 whose ID matches the device status table ID included in the user information table 210.

  Subsequently, the usage status information acquisition unit 272 initializes the device status table 230 and the notification destination device table 250 (step S1404).

  Subsequently, the usage status information acquisition unit 272 determines whether or not an unregistered terminal device 300 is detected (step S1405). More specifically, the usage status information acquisition unit 272 receives identification information for identifying the terminal device 300 from the terminal device 300, and the ICCID value and the terminal IMEI value are stored in the device state table 230. It is determined whether there is a terminal device 300 that is not present.

  If an unregistered terminal device 300 is not detected in step S1405, the process proceeds to step S1408 described later.

  When the unregistered terminal device 300 is detected in step S1405, the table update unit 278 sets the value of the unregistered device in the user information table 210 to “present” (step S1406). Subsequently, the notification unit 276 notifies the unregistered terminal device 300 of the incoming call (step S1407). Note that the notification unit 276 of the present embodiment may transmit an email urging the user to register an unregistered terminal device 300.

  Subsequently, the usage status information acquisition unit 272 determines whether or not the notification destination setting value is “notify all devices” in the notification setting table 220 associated with the user information table 210 (step S1408). ).

  If “notify all devices” is set in step S1408, the notification unit 276 notifies all terminal devices 300 of the incoming call, and proceeds to an end process (step S1409). The usage status information acquisition unit 272 initializes the device status table 230 and the notification destination device table as end processing (step S1410), and ends the processing.

  If “notify to all devices” is not set in step S1408, the usage status information acquisition unit 272 issues a usage status information acquisition request to all the terminal devices 300 registered in the device information table 240 (step S1411). ).

  Subsequently, the usage status information acquisition unit 272 receives items from the terminal device 300 that are included in the device status table 230, such as a user authentication status, a temperature sensor status, a gyroscope, an acceleration sensor status, a camera determination, a pulse sensor status, and an electrostatic sensor. Each value of the state, the device liquid crystal screen state, the touch sensor use state, the proximity sensor state, the liquid crystal state, and the busy state is acquired (step S1412).

  Subsequently, the usage status information acquisition unit 272 stores the acquired value in the device status table 230 associated with the device information table 240 corresponding to the terminal device 300 for each terminal device 300 (step S1413). Subsequently, the incoming call notification server 200 ends the process of the usage status information acquisition unit 272 and proceeds to a process of determining the usage status of each terminal device 300 (step S1414), and thus proceeds to step S1501 of FIG.

  FIG. 15 is a first flowchart illustrating the processing of the priority assigning unit. The process shown in FIG. 15 shows the details of the process in step S1302 of FIG.

  Whether or not the incoming call notification server 200 according to the present embodiment has executed the processing after step S1502 described later for all the registered terminal devices 300 by the priority assigning unit 273 following step S1414 in FIG. Is determined (step S1501).

  If the process is executed for all the terminal devices 300 in step S1501, the incoming call notification server 200 proceeds to step S1601 in FIG.

  In step S1501, when the processing is not executed for all the terminal devices 300, the priority notification unit 200 sets the value of the item “camera determination” in the device state table 230 to “recognition” by the priority assignment unit 273. It is determined whether or not (step S1502). That is, the priority assigning unit 273 determines whether the user is looking at the terminal device 300.

  In step S1502, if “not recognized”, the priority level assigning unit 273 proceeds to step S1504 described later.

  If “recognition” is obtained in step S1502, the priority assigning unit 273 adds 1000 to the initial value of the item “determination result” in the device state table 230 (step S1503).

  Subsequently, the priority assigning unit 273 determines whether or not the value of the item “touch sensor use state” in the device state table 230 is “in use” (step S1504). That is, the priority assigning unit 273 determines whether or not the user of the terminal device 300 is operating the touch panel of the terminal device 300.

  If it is not “in use” in step S1504, the priority assigning unit 273 proceeds to step S1506, which will be described later.

  If “in use” in step S1504, the priority assigning unit 273 adds 100 to the value of the item “determination result” in the device state table 230 (step S1505).

  Subsequently, the priority assigning unit 273 determines whether or not the value of the item “electrostatic sensor state” in the device state table 230 is “holding the terminal device” (step S1506). If it is not “holding the terminal device” in step S1506, the priority level assigning unit 273 proceeds to step S1508, which will be described later.

  When “holding the terminal device” is set in step S1506, the priority assigning unit 273 adds 10 to the value of the item “determination result” in the device state table 230 (step S1507).

  Subsequently, the priority assigning unit 273 detects the tilt of the terminal device 300 from the value of the item “gyro / acceleration sensor state” of the device state table 230, and the value of the item “device liquid crystal screen state” is turned on. It is determined whether or not (step S1508). That is, the priority assigning unit 273 determines whether or not the terminal device 300 is inclined and the screen is displayed on the display / operation device 36. The case where the terminal device 300 is inclined and the screen is displayed is, for example, the case where the screen is displayed on the display operation device 36 of the terminal device 300 leaning on a stand or the like.

  In step S1508, when the condition that there is an inclination and the screen is displayed is satisfied, the priority assigning unit 273 returns to step S1507.

  In step S1508, when the condition that there is an inclination and the screen is displayed is not satisfied, the priority assigning unit 273 proceeds to step S1509.

  The priority assigning unit 273 can detect the value of the item “pulse sensor” in the device state table 230, and can acquire the value of the pulse sensor from 5 seconds before the usage status information acquisition request is transmitted to the terminal device 300. It is determined whether or not it can be performed (step S1509). That is, the priority assigning unit 273 determines whether or not the user's pulse can be detected from 5 seconds before the timing at which the usage status information acquisition request is transmitted to the terminal device 300. In the present embodiment, by providing a period for detecting a pulse (5 seconds), the pulse sensor 44 temporarily detects a pulse for some reason, and the user is wearing the terminal device 300. Can be distinguished. The period for detecting the pulse is not limited to 5 seconds, and may be any period as long as the above-described distinction can be made.

  In step S1509, when the value of the pulse sensor 44 can be acquired, the priority assigning unit 273 adds 1 to the value of the item “determination result” in the device state table 230 (step S1510).

  If the value of the pulse sensor 44 can be acquired in step S1509, the priority assigning unit 273 proceeds to step S1511 described later.

  The priority assigning unit 273 determines whether the value of the item “temperature sensor” in the device state table 230 can be acquired and the temperature is within a predetermined range set in advance (step S1511). Here, the predetermined range set in advance is a temperature range that is close to a human body temperature. That is, the priority assigning unit 273 determines whether or not the terminal device 300 is worn on the user's body.

  In step S1511, if the condition that the value of the temperature sensor 43 can be detected and the value is within the predetermined range is satisfied, the process proceeds to step S1510. In step S1511, when the value of the temperature sensor 43 can be detected and the condition that the value is within the predetermined range is not satisfied, the process proceeds to step S1512 described later.

  The priority assigning unit 273 can detect the value of the item “acceleration sensor” in the device state table 230 and detect the user's running or walking until five minutes before the usage status information acquisition request is transmitted to the terminal device 300. It is determined whether or not it is possible (step S1512). That is, the priority assigning unit 273 determines whether or not the user has been walking or running from 5 minutes before receiving the usage status information acquisition request. In the present embodiment, by providing a period (5 minutes) for detecting walking or running, the user is moving while wearing the terminal device 300 when the acceleration sensor 41 detects a temporary movement. Can be distinguished from the case. In addition, 5 minutes is an example, and the period for detecting walking or running may be a period in which the above-described distinction can be performed.

  In step S1512, when the value of the acceleration sensor 41 can be acquired and the condition that the user is walking or running from 5 minutes before receiving the usage status information acquisition request is satisfied, the priority assigning unit 273 determines whether or not the step S1510 Proceed to

  In step S1512, when the value of the acceleration sensor 41 can be acquired and the condition that the user is walking or running from 5 minutes before receiving the usage information acquisition request is not satisfied, the priority assigning unit 273 Terminal device 300 is selected (step S1513), and the process returns to step S1501.

  FIG. 16 is a second flowchart illustrating the processing of the priority assigning unit. The process of FIG. 16 performs a process of lowering the priority of the terminal device 300 than the other terminal devices 300 when the terminal device 300 is busy. In the present embodiment, by performing this process, it is avoided that the terminal device 300 that is in a state where it is difficult to confirm an incoming call during a call is selected as a notification destination of the incoming call.

  In step S1501 of FIG. 15, when the processing after step S1502 is completed for all the terminal devices 300, the priority assigning unit 273 determines whether the processing after step S1602 has been performed for all the terminal devices 300. (Step S1601).

  In step S1601, if all the terminal devices 300 perform the processing from step S1602 onward, the incoming call notification server 200 proceeds to step S1701 in FIG.

  In step S1601, when the processing after step S1602 is not performed, the priority assigning unit 273 has the value of the item “determination result” of the device state table 230 corresponding to the terminal device 300 to be processed being 10 or more. It is determined whether or not (step S1602). When the value of the item “judgment result” is 10 or more, the usage status of the terminal device 300 by the user includes at least one of “watching”, “having”, and “operating” It is.

  In step S1602, when the value of the item “determination result” is not 10 or more, the priority assigning unit 273 selects another terminal device 300 (step S1603), and returns to step S1601.

  In step S1602, when the value of the item “determination result” is 10 or more, the priority level assigning unit 273 indicates that the value of the item “proximity sensor state” in the device state table 230 is “on” and the item “busy” It is determined whether or not the value of “status” is “ON” (step S1604). That is, the priority assigning unit 273 determines whether or not the user is talking on the terminal device 300.

  If it is determined in step S1604 that the call is not in progress, the priority assigning unit 273 proceeds to step S1603. In step S1604, when a call is in progress, the priority assigning unit 273 has a value of 1 or more for the item “determination result” in the device state table 230 corresponding to the terminal device 300 other than the terminal device 300 that is the processing target. It is determined whether or not (step S1605). That is, the priority assigning unit 273 determines whether there is a terminal device 300 to which priority is given in addition to the terminal device 300 to be processed.

  In step S1605, when there is no other terminal device 300 to which priority is given, the priority assignment unit 273 proceeds to step S1603.

  In step S <b> 1605, when there is another terminal device 300 to which priority is given, the priority assignment unit 273 displays the item “in the device state table 230 of the terminal device 300 to be processed (terminal device 300 during a call)”. The value of “judgment result” is set to 0 (step S1606), and the process proceeds to step S1603. That is, the priority assigning unit 273 lowers the priority of the terminal device 300 during a call compared to the other terminal devices 300.

  FIG. 17 is a flowchart illustrating the processing of the authentication result determination unit and the notification destination specifying unit. The process of FIG. 17 shows the details of the process of step S1303 of FIG.

  In the incoming call notification server 200 according to the present embodiment, when the notification destination specifying unit 274 satisfies the condition of step S1601 in FIG. 16, the device status table 230 associated with the user information table 210 is stored in the item “determination result”. The values are arranged in descending order (step S1701). Subsequently, the notification destination specifying unit 274 provides a variable n and sets n = 0 (step S1702).

  Subsequently, the notification destination specifying unit 274 compares the value of the item “device information table ID” of the notification destination device table 250 associated with the user information table 210 or compares all the device state tables 230. It is determined whether or not (step S1703).

  If the condition is satisfied in step S1703, the process proceeds to step S1801 in FIG.

  If the condition is not satisfied in step S1703, the notification destination specifying unit 274 refers to the nth device state table 230 from the top of the device state table 230 rearranged in step S1701 (step S1704).

  Subsequently, the notification destination specifying unit 274 determines whether or not the value of the item “user specification notification setting” in the notification setting table 220 associated with the user information table is “use” (step S1705). ).

  If it is not “use” in step S1705, the notification destination specifying unit 274 proceeds to step S1707 described later.

  If “use” is determined in step S1705, the authentication result determination unit 275 determines whether the value of the item “user authentication state” in the device state table 230 is “authenticated” (step S1706).

  If “authenticated” in step S 1706, the notification destination specifying unit 274 matches the value of the item “device information table ID” of the notification destination device table 250 with the device information associated with the nth device state table 230. The ID of the table 240 is set (step S1707).

  In the present embodiment, in the process of step S1707, the device that is the notification destination of the incoming call is specified as the terminal device 300 corresponding to the device information table 240.

  If it is not “authenticated” in step S1706, the notification destination specifying unit 274 holds information indicating that there is an unauthenticated terminal device 300 in the storage area (step S1708).

  Subsequently, the notification destination specifying unit 274 adds 1 to the value of the variable n (step S1709) and returns to step S1703.

  As described above, the incoming call notification server 200 according to this embodiment includes the terminal device 300 having the largest value of the item “evaluation result” in the device state table 230 indicating the priority of each terminal device 300 among the plurality of terminal devices 300. Is identified as the terminal device 300 that is the notification destination. Furthermore, when using the authentication result in the terminal device 300, the incoming call notification server 200 of the present embodiment has the largest item “evaluation result” among the terminal devices 300 that have been authenticated by the user. The device 300 is identified as the notification destination terminal device 300.

  FIG. 18 is a flowchart for explaining processing of the notification unit and the retry processing unit. FIG. 18 shows details of the processing in step S1304 shown in FIG.

  When the condition of step S1703 in FIG. 17 is satisfied, the incoming call notification server 200 according to the present embodiment determines whether or not the value of the item “device information table ID” of the notification destination device table 250 is set by the notification unit 276. (Step S1801). If it is not set in step S1801, the process proceeds to step S1805 described later.

  If it is set in step S1801, the notification unit 276 notifies the terminal device 300 identified from the device information table 240 corresponding to the value of the item “device information table ID” (step S1802). Subsequently, the notification unit 276 sets the value of the item “notified flag” in the notification destination device table 250 to “notified” (step S1803). At this time, the notification unit 276 sets the value of the item “initial notification flag” to “1”.

  Subsequently, the notification unit 276 determines whether or not the value of the item “Re-notification after notification” is “Re-notify” in the notification setting table 220 associated with the user information table 210 ( Step S1804). If “notify again” is not set in step S1804, the process proceeds to step S1812 described below.

  If “notify again” in step S1804, the retry processing unit 277 determines whether or not the value of the item “first notification flag” in the notification destination device table 250 is 1 (step S1805). That is, the retry processing unit 277 determines whether or not the notification performed in step S1802 is the first notification.

  If the value of the item “initial notification flag” is 1 in step S 1805, the retry processing unit 277 sets the item “maximum retry count” in the notification setting table 220 to the value of the item “retry count” in the notification destination device table 250. Set the value of. Then, the retry processing unit 277 sets the value of the item “initial notification flag” in the notification destination device table 250 to 0 (step S1806), and proceeds to step S1808 described later.

  In step S1805, when the value of the item “initial notification flag” is not 1, the retry processing unit 277 sets and sets the value of the item “retry time” of the notification setting table 220 in the timer of the incoming call notification server 200. Retry processing is performed after the retry time (step S1807). The retry process of the present embodiment is a process of notifying the specified terminal device 300 again.

  Subsequently, the retry processing unit 277 sets the value of the item “device information table ID” in the notification destination device table 250, the value of the item “retry count” is 1 or more, and the item “confirmed flag”. It is determined whether or not the value of 0 is 0 (unconfirmed) (step S1808). In step S1808, it is determined whether the user has not confirmed the notification even though the notification retry process is performed once or more for the identified terminal device 300.

  If the condition is satisfied in step S1808, the retry processing unit 277 notifies the terminal device 300 specified by the device information table 240 corresponding to the value of the item “device information table ID” in the notification destination device table 250 (step S1808). S1809).

  Subsequently, the retry processing unit 277 subtracts 1 from the value of the item “number of retries” in the notification destination device table 250 (step S1810). Then, the incoming call notification server 200 proceeds to step S1411 in FIG. 14, and returns to the process of acquiring usage status information.

  In other words, the incoming call notification server 200 according to the present embodiment specifies the terminal device 300 that is the notification destination based on the usage status information when the notification is not confirmed despite the incoming call notification retry process being performed in the terminal device 300. Repeat from the process to do.

  If the condition is not satisfied in step S1808, the retry processing unit 277 determines whether the value of the item “retry count” in the notification destination device table 250 is 0 (step S1811). In step S1811, when the value of the item “retry count” is 0, the incoming call notification server 200 initializes the device state table 230 and the notification destination device table 250 (step S1812), and ends the process of notifying the incoming call.

  If the value of the item “number of retries” is not 0 in step S1811, the retry processing unit 277 determines whether information indicating the terminal device 300 that has not been authenticated is stored in the storage area (step S1813). .

  If the information indicating the terminal device 300 that has not been authenticated is stored in the storage area in step S1813, the retry processing unit 277 determines that the value of the item “user authentication status” in the device status table 230 is “unauthenticated”. The apparatus 300 is notified of the authentication request (step S1814), and the process proceeds to step S1810.

  The setting of the value of the item “confirmed flag” in the notification destination device table 250 will be described below with reference to FIG. FIG. 19 is a flowchart for explaining notification confirmation reception processing.

  The table updating unit 278 of this embodiment receives a notification indicating that the notification has been confirmed from the terminal device 300 that has made the notification after transmitting the notification of the incoming call from the incoming notification server 200 to the terminal device 300 (step S1901).

  Subsequently, when receiving a confirmed notification from the terminal device 300, the table updating unit 278 changes the value of the notification destination device table item “confirmed flag” from “0” to “1” (step S1902).

  As described above, the incoming call notification server 200 according to the present embodiment, when the notification is not confirmed in the terminal device 300 that has notified the incoming call, again after the retry time set in the notification setting table 220. Retry from the process specified by the terminal device 300. Therefore, in this embodiment, it can suppress that a user misses the notification of an incoming call.

  The incoming call notification server 200 according to the present embodiment makes an authentication request to the terminal device 300 when the user authentication is not performed in the terminal device 300. Therefore, in the present embodiment, an incoming call can be notified after the user is authenticated in the terminal device 300, and the incoming call can be prevented from being notified to anyone other than the user of the terminal device 300.

  Next, processing on the terminal device 300 side of the present embodiment will be described. FIG. 20 is a first flowchart illustrating the process of the information acquisition processing unit in the terminal device.

  When receiving the usage status information acquisition request from the incoming call notification server 200, the terminal device 300 according to the present embodiment acquires the value of each item included in the usage status information by the information acquisition processing unit 310 and sends it to the incoming call notification server 200. Send.

  In the terminal device 300 of the present embodiment, the information acquisition processing unit 310 receives a usage status information acquisition request from the incoming call notification server 200 (step S2001).

  The processing from step S2002 to step S2006 described next is processing in which the terminal device 300 transmits the value of the item “camera determination” in the device state table 230 to the incoming call notification server 200.

  The information acquisition processing unit 310 acquires image data with the in-camera 50 provided in the terminal device 300 (step S2002). Subsequently, the information acquisition processing unit 310 starts processing for recognizing a human face from the acquired image data (step S2003). The process for recognizing a human face is a known face recognition process or the like.

  Subsequently, the information acquisition processing unit 310 determines whether or not a human face can be recognized from the image data (step S2004). If the information acquisition processing unit 310 recognizes it in step S2004, the value “recognition” is set as a value to be transmitted to the incoming call notification server 200 (step S2005).

  If it is not recognition in step S2004, the information acquisition processing unit 310 sets the value “unrecognized” as a value to be transmitted to the incoming call notification server 200 (step S2006).

  The processing from step S2007 to step S2010 described below is processing in which the terminal device 300 transmits the value of the item “electrostatic sensor state” in the device state table 230 to the incoming call notification server 200.

  The information acquisition processor 310 acquires the capacitance value of the electrostatic sensor 47 (step S2007). Subsequently, the information acquisition processing unit 310 determines whether or not the capacitance exceeds a predetermined threshold (step S2008).

  When the threshold value is exceeded in step S2008, the information acquisition processing unit 310 sets the value “holding the terminal” as a value to be transmitted to the incoming call notification server 200 (step S2009).

  In step S2008, when the threshold value is not exceeded, the information acquisition processing unit 310 sets a value “not holding the terminal” as a value to be transmitted to the incoming call notification server 200 (step S2010).

  The processing from step S2011 to step S2012 to be described next is processing in which the terminal device 300 transmits the value of the item “touch sensor state” in the device state table 230 to the incoming call notification server 200.

  The information acquisition processing unit 310 refers to the log file 330 and determines whether or not the touch panel event of the display operation device 36 has been recorded in the past 5 seconds (step S2011). If an event is recorded in step S2011, the information acquisition processing unit 310 sets the value “in use” as a value to be transmitted to the incoming call notification server 200 (step S2012).

  When no event is recorded in step S2011, the information acquisition processing unit 310 sets the value “not used” as a value to be transmitted to the incoming call notification server 200 (step S2013). In this embodiment, since the log file for the past 5 seconds is referred to, for example, when the user accidentally touches the touch panel, a short-time contact is prevented from being erroneously determined as “in use”. it can.

  The processing from step S2014 to step S2016 described next is processing in which the terminal device 300 transmits the values of other items in the device state table 230 to the incoming call notification server 200.

  The information acquisition processing unit 310 refers to the log file 330, acquires the values of the acceleration sensor 41 and the gyro sensor 42 for the past 5 seconds, and sets the values to be transmitted to the incoming call notification server 200 (step S2014).

  Subsequently, the information acquisition processing unit 310 obtains information indicating whether the liquid crystal screen is lit or not lit, information indicating whether the terminal device 300 is busy, the value of the pulse sensor 44, and the value of the temperature sensor 43. Each is acquired and set as a value to be transmitted to the incoming call notification server 200 (step S2015).

Subsequently, when the terminal device 300 has authenticated the user within 24 hours, the information acquisition processing unit 310 sets the value “authenticated” as a value to be transmitted to the incoming call notification server 200. Further, the information acquisition processing unit 310 sets the value “unauthenticated” to the incoming call notification server 200 when the user is not authenticated within 24 hours or when the screen lock of the terminal device 300 is not released. To be transmitted (step S2016).
Subsequently, the information acquisition processing unit 310 transmits the value transmitted to the incoming call notification server 200 acquired in each step to the incoming call notification server 200 (step S2017).

  The terminal device 300 according to the present embodiment transmits the usage status information to the incoming call notification server 200 through the above processing.

  Next, generation in the log file 330 by the information acquisition processing unit 310 in the terminal device 300 will be described. FIG. 21 is a second flowchart illustrating the process of the information acquisition processing unit in the terminal device.

  The information acquisition processing unit 310 according to the present embodiment determines whether or not the terminal device 300 is powered off (step S2101). In step S2101, when the power is turned off, the information acquisition processing unit 310 ends the process.

  In step S2101, when the power is not turned off (when the power is turned on), the information acquisition processing unit 310 waits for an event signal from the touch panel, the acceleration sensor 41, and the gyro sensor 42 provided in the display operation device 36 ( Step S2102).

  The information acquisition processing unit 310 determines whether an event has been received from the touch panel (step S2103). Note that the event in step S2103 is that the touch panel detects contact with the touch panel.

  If an event is received in step S2103, the information acquisition processing unit 310 writes the event information on the touch panel and the time when the event is received (event occurrence time) in the log file 330 (step S2104). The event information is information indicating that an event has occurred on the touch panel.

  If no event is received in step S2103, the information acquisition processing unit 310 determines whether or not an event has been received from the acceleration sensor 41 and the gyro sensor 42 (step S2105). If an event is received in step S2105, the information acquisition processing unit 310 stores the values acquired from the acceleration sensor 41 and the gyro sensor 42 and the event occurrence time in the log file 330 (step S2106).

  If no event is received in step S2105, the information acquisition processing unit 310 determines whether or not the size of the log file 330 exceeds a prescribed size (step S2107).

  If the specified size is exceeded in step S2107, the information acquisition processing unit 310 leaves the event from the current time to 5 seconds before and deletes the previous event and event occurrence time data (step S2108). In this embodiment, the time is 5 seconds ago, but the amount of data left in the log file 330 is not limited to this. The log file 330 of the present embodiment has an amount of data that can be used to determine whether the event that has occurred is caused by the use of the user's terminal device 300 or is caused by an erroneous operation or an accident. It only has to be stored.

  If the specified size is not exceeded in step S2107, the information acquisition processing unit 310 waits until there is a next event (step S2109), and returns to step S2101.

  Next, processing of the authentication processing unit 320 in the terminal device 300 will be described. FIG. 22 is a first flowchart illustrating the processing of the authentication processing unit in the terminal device. FIG. 22 illustrates processing of the authentication processing unit 320 when the terminal device 300 receives an authentication request from the incoming call notification server 200 when the terminal device 300 is a smartphone or a tablet-type terminal.

  The terminal device 300 receives an authentication request from the incoming call notification server 200 (step S2201). Subsequently, the terminal device 300 performs authentication by the authentication processing unit 320 (step S2202). Specifically, the authentication processing unit 320 receives a screen lock release operation by the user and performs a screen lock release process. Subsequently, the authentication processing unit 320 determines whether or not the user has been authenticated (step S2203).

  If the user is not authenticated in step S2203, the next time the usage status information acquisition request is received, the value of “unauthenticated” is set as a value to be transmitted to the incoming call notification server 200 (step S2204), and the process is terminated. .

  When the usage status information is authenticated in step S2203, the authentication processing unit 320 transmits the authentication result as “authenticated” to the incoming call notification server 200 (step S2205). Subsequently, the terminal device 300 receives a notification of an incoming call that has been put on hold in the incoming call notification server 200 (step S2206), and ends the process.

  FIG. 23 is a second flowchart illustrating the processing of the authentication processing unit in the terminal device. FIG. 23 shows processing of the authentication processing unit 320 when the terminal device 300 receives an authentication request from the incoming call notification server 200 when the terminal device 300 is a wearable terminal.

  The terminal device 300 acquires the value of the temperature sensor 43 or the pulse sensor 44 by the information acquisition processing unit 310 (step S2301). Subsequently, the terminal device 300 determines whether or not the value acquired in step S2301 has changed to a value within a predetermined range by the authentication processing unit 320 (step S2302). The predetermined range is a range that is close to a human body temperature or a human pulse, and is a preset range.

  In step S2302, when the value changes to a value within the predetermined range, the authentication processing unit 320 determines that the user has started wearing the terminal device 300, and requests authentication from the user (step S2303). Then, the process proceeds to step S2305 to be described later.

  If it does not change within the predetermined range in step S2302, the authentication processing unit 320 determines that the user is not wearing the terminal device 300, and sets the authentication result of the terminal device 300 to “unauthenticated” (step S2302). S2304).

  Subsequently, when the user authenticates, the authentication processing unit 320 sets the authentication result as a value to be transmitted to the incoming call notification server 200 when receiving a use status information acquisition request next time (step S2305).

  In the present embodiment, when the terminal device 300 is a wearable terminal, by performing processing as shown in FIG. 23, the user is requested to authenticate when the terminal device 300 is mounted, and the user When the terminal device 300 is not attached, the terminal device 300 is not authenticated. Therefore, when the user does not wear the terminal device 300, the terminal device 300 can be prevented from being left in an authenticated state, and confidentiality can be maintained.
