Japanese Patent No. 5891468 JP 2016-38895 A

  However, according to the method of Patent Document 1, in order to specify the position information of the watched person, since the position information is obtained using the GPS, a smartphone or other terminal for transmitting / receiving the GPS signal is required. Therefore, it takes time and effort to prepare an application for use.

  In addition, if the route is fixed to some extent, such as when going to school from home, such as when going to school, it is easy to place a watcher's terminal. In this case, since the route is unknown, it is difficult to obtain the position information of the watched person if the route is away from the watcher terminal by a predetermined distance.

  Furthermore, when using position information detected by GPS, there is a problem that an error occurs due to the reception environment of the GPS signal and the precise position of the watched person is not known. In addition, there is a problem that there is a limit to the accuracy of position information provided by GPS in the first place. Therefore, in places with low visibility such as high-rise buildings or parks where many trees are planted, it is difficult to find a watcher while the watcher and the watcher are on the same screen. There is.

  In the case of the means of Patent Document 2, since it is necessary to transmit search target person identification information from the user terminal to the server device during the search, it is useful when searching for a specific person. Each time you want to quickly check if your parents are suddenly worried, such as whether their children are going to school, where they are, or whether they are going to or from school by multiple people. It is somewhat troublesome to request input transmission of the target person identification information.

  In addition, for parents of children who are determined to take a specific route every day, such as a school route, if the child is far off the specific route, the child may have been involved in an accident. In such a case, it is desirable for parents to be able to know immediately.

  In addition, it is often convenient to be able to use the parties involved in the facility where the watched person is involved, such as schools and other facilities, but there is a privacy problem, and for the guardian, etc. There is also the possibility of reluctant to know where the children are.

It is a figure which shows an example of the information which a management server memorize | stores. It is a figure which shows an example of the display of the notification information in the watcher terminal. It is a figure which shows an example of the display of the notification information in the watcher terminal.

  Embodiment 1 of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the hardware necessary for the present invention and their connections. For example, a plurality of lighting devices 1 are generally installed on a road, a park, or the like. In FIG. 1, the lighting devices 1 are denoted by 1a, 1b, and 1c for the sake of convenience.

  The lighting device 1 includes a communication unit, and is connected to the watcher terminal 5 and the management server 7 of the watcher via a communication line 2 such as the Internet so that data can be transmitted / received to / from each other. The watcher terminal 5 may include a computer, a portable information terminal such as a general computer, a smartphone, a tablet PC, or the like, which includes a communication unit, a display unit, and the like.

  The watched person terminal 3 is a device possessed by the watched person and has a short-range wireless communication function. The watched person terminal 3 includes a beacon transmission unit, storage means for storing watched person identification information for identifying the watched person terminal 3, and control means for various information processing. Although known standards can be adopted as appropriate for short-range communication, a standard known as “Bluetooth Low Energy” after Bluetooth (registered trademark) 4.0 or later is desirable from the viewpoint of battery life.

  FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of the lighting device 1. The illumination device 1 mainly includes a control unit, a beacon receiving unit, a communication unit, and a light emitting unit. The control unit includes a light emission instruction information for instructing turning on / off, dimming, a beacon signal, a processing device for processing various other information, and a storage device for storing various information. As will be described later, device identification information for specifying each of the lighting devices 1 is stored in the storage device.

  The light emitting unit of the lighting device 1 includes a light emitting device such as a light bulb, a fluorescent lamp, and an LED, and a control circuit and a lighting circuit for controlling lighting, extinguishing, dimming, and the like of the light emitting device. The light emitting unit may be provided with a plurality of light emitting units having different emission colors so as to enable light emission with a plurality of different emission colors, or may be provided with a color changeable one.

  The communication unit transmits and receives data to and from the watcher terminal 5 and the management server 7 via the communication line 2 according to instructions from the control unit. The beacon receiving unit is means for detecting a beacon signal transmitted from the watched person terminal 3. In addition, regarding the power supply to the illuminating device 1, arbitrary power supply means can be used. Here, the description is omitted.

  The lighting device 1 is connected to the input means 11. The information input method of the input means 11 is not particularly limited, and may be a mechanical contact switch, infrared ray or capacitance type sensor, or the like. The input means 11 is provided in the vicinity of the lighting device 1, and is provided at a height such that the watcher's hand can reach from the ground of the support column of the lighting device 1, for example.

  In addition, the lighting device 1 may include a speaker and a camera.

Hereinafter, the flow of processing in the first embodiment will be described.
When the watched person wearing the watched person terminal 3 approaches the lighting device 1a including the beacon receiving part, the beacon receiving part detects the beacon signal transmitted from the watched person terminal 3 and the watched person terminal. 3. The watchee identification information transmitted from 3 is received.

  The lighting device 1a that has received the watchee identification information manages the watchee identification information and the device identification information for specifying the lighting device 1a stored in advance in the lighting device 1a via the communication line 2. Send to server 7.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the management server 7 that has received the watchee identification information associates the watchee identification information with the device identification information and stores them in the management file. Further, time information indicating the date and time when the management server 7 receives the watchee identification information may be stored in association with each other. By doing so, it is possible to track the movement of the watchee over time.

  The management server 7 stores a watcher file in which the watcher identification information is associated with the watcher identification information for identifying the watcher of the watcher. Furthermore, the management server 7 stores a device location file. In this device position file, device identification information for specifying each of the lighting devices 1 and device position information for each lighting device 1 are associated with each other. Here, the device position information may be, for example, coordinate information for specifying a position in predetermined map information or a character string such as “Before Park fountain”.

  As shown in FIG. 3, these files are stored in association with each other so that they can be referred to each other.

  Here, specifically, it is assumed that the watchee identification information received by the management server 7 is “A0001” and the device identification information of the lighting device 1a is “S0001”. The management server 7 stores the watcher identification information “A0001” and the device identification information “S0001” in association with each other in the management file. As described above, time information may be associated together. As described above, the watcher identification information and the device identification information transmitted from the lighting device 1 are associated with each other and stored in the management file.

Next, a process in which the watcher confirms the position of the watched person from the watcher terminal 5 will be described.
The watcher accesses the management server 7 from the watcher terminal 5. The watcher terminal 5 transmits the watcher identification information to the management server 7, and the management server 7 receives the watcher identification information. The transmission / reception of the watcher identification information may be performed as part of the login to the management server 7.

  The management server 7 searches the watcher file using the received watcher identification information as a key, and extracts the corresponding watcher identification information. Subsequently, the management file is searched using the extracted watchee identification information as a key, and the corresponding device identification information is extracted. Here, device identification information is extracted from the latest record.

  The management server 7 creates notification information from the device position information, predetermined map information, and the like, and transmits it to the watcher terminal 5. The notification information is, for example, a map in which images indicating the lighting device 1 are arranged according to the device position information, respectively, and indicates the lighting device 1 (here, the lighting device 1a) related to the device identification information extracted as described above. It consists of an instruction display. The watcher who has received this can check the position of the watched person via the display means of the watcher terminal 5 as shown in FIG.

  Here, the instruction display may be any display that prompts the watcher, for example, by pointing an image indicating the lighting device 1 with an arrow, enclosing it with a line, or changing a color.

  Here, the management server 7 specifies the device identification information from the latest record in the watchee identification information from the management file. For example, the management server 7 creates notification information based on a plurality of device identification information in the past fixed time. You may make it transmit to the observer terminal 5. In this case, as shown in FIG. 5, notification may be made together with time information so that the state of movement of the watched person can be understood.

  In the description so far, the position of one specific watcher terminal 3 can be confirmed by the watcher terminal 5, but the lighting device 1 is connected to the watchee terminal 3 and another watchee. If a plurality of person terminals are detected, they may be confirmed on the watcher terminal 5. Specifically, when the lighting device 1a detects a specific one watchdog terminal 3a, when there are other watchdog terminals 3b and 3c detected within a predetermined time range from the detection, FIG. Along with the position information as shown, some display indicating that there are two watcher terminals (3b, 3c) in addition to the watchee terminal 3a is made. The display mode only needs to allow the watcher to know that there are a plurality other than one specific watchdog terminal 3, for example, displaying a number indicating the number of watchdog terminals detected. For example, the number of arrows may be displayed. In this way, the watcher knows whether there is something that will act with the watched person to watch, so if the watcher watches the school going to and from elementary school, multiple people should go to school Since it can be confirmed, a sense of security can be obtained.

  When the watched person deviates from the predetermined route, the watcher terminal 5 of the watcher may be notified. When the watched person is an elementary school student or the like and the attending school route is fixed, the watched person can quickly notice an incident such as a kidnapping or an accident.

  The device identification information of the illuminating device 1 located on the route through which the watched person should pass is stored in association with the watched person identification information in the order in which the watched person passes. Using this as appropriate route information, the management server 7 determines whether or not the proper route is being followed based on the received guardian identification information and device identification information.

  As a method of storing appropriate route information in the management server 7, first, there is a method in which a watcher or the like designates in advance the lighting device 1 that is located on a route through which the watchee should pass. As another method, there is a method in which the management server 7 learns and stores appropriate route information from the route information that the watcher has previously taken. The learning of appropriate route information by the management server 7 is, for example, storing device identification information of the lighting device 1 that has detected the watched person for a predetermined period (for example, the past one month), and using this information as appropriate route information. And When the device identification information of the lighting device 1 that has not detected the watchee identification information for a predetermined period is received, it is determined that the watchee has deviated from the proper route.

  In addition, when a beacon signal from the watchee terminal 3 is detected, the lighting device 1 may be caused to perform a predetermined operation, for example, to emit light from a light emitting unit or to emit a predetermined sound from a speaker. Thereby, since it can be easily confirmed whether there is any problem in the light emission and other operations of the lighting device, the maintenance work is reduced.

  When a child gets lost, the parent and other family members (watchers) need to go to find the watchee. In such a case, in places where there are many shields or places where the watcher visits for the first time, it takes time for the watcher to find the watcher, or the watcher takes the time to go looking for it. It may be more difficult to discover, such as the watcher moving around without staying there.

  In order to prevent such a situation as much as possible, when the lighting device 1 detects a beacon transmitted from the watched person terminal 3, the light emitting unit of the lighting device 1 is dimmed. For example, the light emitting unit may be changed from a normal white color to blue or blinked. In short, it is only necessary to emit light different from the surrounding light so that the watcher can easily find it from a distance. This makes it easy for the watcher to find the place, even if it is the first place or there is some shielding.

  In addition, when the lighting device 1 is provided with a speaker, a voice message may be issued from the speaker to “stay on the spot” or to prompt the user to return home.

  What is necessary is just to reproduce | regenerate the audio | voice message memorize | stored beforehand in the illuminating device 1, when the illuminating device 1 detects the beacon from the guardian's terminal 3. FIG. However, in this case, if no care is taken, a voice message is always reproduced when the watched terminal 3 detects a beacon. In order to prevent this, when the management server 7 receives a request for voice message playback from the watcher terminal 5, it is only necessary to play back the voice message only for the corresponding watcher.

  For example, assuming that the child (watcher) is lost and the parent (watcher) searches, the watcher requests playback of the message from the watcher terminal 3 to the management server 7. Send request information. The management server 7 that has received this performs a reproduction destination specifying process for extracting and storing the relevant watcher identification information from the watcher identification information.

  Thereafter, when the child approaches the lighting device 1a and the lighting device 1 detects the beacon of the watcher terminal 3, the watcher terminal 3 is watched by the short-distance communication between the watchee terminal 3 and the lighting device 1a. The lighting device 1a receives the person identification information, and the lighting device 1a transmits the watchee identification information and the device identification information of the lighting device 1a to the management server 7.

  The management server 7 that has received this determines whether or not the watched person identification information received from the lighting device 1a matches the watched person identification information specified by the previous reproduction destination specifying process. In this case, the audio reproduction instruction information is transmitted to the lighting device 1a based on the received device identification information. Receiving this, the lighting device 1a reproduces voice message data stored in advance.

  This makes it possible to tell a lost child or the like to stay there. At this time, according to the first embodiment, the parent (watcher) can grasp the location of the child (watchee) and can keep the child on the spot without moving around. For (watchers), it becomes easier to find children (watchers). In addition, for a child who is late to go home, he / she instructs the child to go home by playing a voice message prompting him / her to return to the speaker of the lighting device 1 that is detecting the child's guardian terminal 3. Can do.

  For this voice message, voice message data of a plurality of message contents may be stored and selected from the watcher terminal 5. Moreover, although the predetermined | prescribed voice message data which the illuminating device 1 memorize | stores beforehand may be sufficient, the management server 7 may memorize | store. When the management server 7 stores the information, for example, the voice message data may be transmitted to the lighting device 1 together with or instead of the voice reproduction instruction information.

  Further, it may be voice message data recorded by the watcher at the watcher terminal 3 or the like. In this case, the watcher records a message transmitted to the watchee in advance and transmits the voice message data to the management server 7, and the management server 7 stores the message in association with the watcher identification information. To do. After that, voice message data recorded by the watcher is transmitted to the lighting device 1 in accordance with the above description. By doing so, the watched person can hear the watcher's real voice and the like, so that the watched person can feel safe and follow the instructions of the voice.

  The lighting device 1 includes a camera. In this case, the camera may take a picture of the vicinity immediately below the installed lighting device 1 and allow the watcher to check the video on the watcher terminal 5 in real time. Since the current status of the watched person can be confirmed, it becomes a safe material for the watcher, and when a suspicious person is nearby, a caution or warning can be issued through the speaker as in Example 2. .

  In this case, in order to prevent abuse of the camera function by the watcher, the video can be confirmed through the camera only while the beacon of the watchee terminal 3 is being detected.

  Further, instead of watching the state of the watched person via the camera by the watcher terminal 5, face authentication may be performed. For example, the management server 7 stores a program necessary for face authentication and face identification information for face authentication in association with the watchee identification information, and is stored in the watchee terminal 3 detected by the lighting device 1. Whether or not the person is a watcher is determined based on the watcher identification information and a face image obtained by capturing the face of the watchee via the camera. Thereby, it can be determined whether or not the proper owner of the watchee terminal 3 possesses the watchdog terminal 3.

  The lighting device 1 includes input means such as a switch. According to the explanations so far, it is considered that when a child is a watcher, someone in the family including the parent often becomes a watcher, but it is not necessary to limit to this relationship. The police may be used.

  For example, a watcher is a victim of a stalker. In the case of such a watcher, the watcher can always confirm the watcher's actions, so when an emergency situation occurs in the victim, the emergency situation has occurred and the position around the position is as soon as possible. Or it is necessary to be able to notify necessary places such as the police.

  It is assumed that the watcher identification information of the watchee terminal 3 in this case is stored in the management server 7 in association with the watcher identification information as a watcher of the police or other predetermined notification destination as the watcher.

  The watcher terminal 3 approaches the lighting device 1 to detect a beacon, receives the watcher identification information, and the management server 7 receives only the watcher identification information. Also do not notify.

  When the lighting device 1 detects the watchee terminal 3 and the input means attached to the column of the lighting device 1 is turned on, predetermined information is transmitted to the watcher. Specifically, the management server 7 receives the ON signal from the input unit as the lighting device 1a in a situation in which the monitoring device identification information and the device identification information by the beacon detection of the watchee terminal 3 are received from the lighting device 1a. Only when it is received from the user, a predetermined notification process to the watcher is performed. The notification processing here may be notification of map information for specifying the position of the watched person as described in the first embodiment, or notification of an emergency situation by text or voice.

  As for the watcher terminal 5 in the first to fourth embodiments so far, it is assumed that the guardian (parent, etc.) is owned by the guardian if the watchee is a child, Information regarding the watcher may be confirmed.

  Examples of other persons include a teacher at a school where a child who is a guardian attends, a staff at an elderly facility, and the like. Such school teachers, facility staff, and the like can be processed separately from the access and viewable information by the guardian terminal 5 by the guardian.

  The management server 7 includes facility identification information for identifying a school or occupancy where the watcher attends so that, for example, a teacher other than the guardian can confirm information about the watchee The watcher identification information for identifying the watcher such as a guardian is stored in association with each other.

  Here, the same applies to the first to fourth embodiments, but a guardian or the like transmits user information to the management server 7 via the guardian terminal 5 when using the system and method according to the present invention. In this case, the watcher identification information is determined and known by the watcher himself. As a method for determining the watcher identification information, the management server 7 may determine a unique value or a unique and arbitrary value input by the watcher. It can be used as appropriate. On the other hand, almost the same user registration is imposed on users from facilities such as schools.

  At the time of this user registration, the user is made to select whether it is a guardian (watcher) or a facility. When “facility” is selected by a school teacher or the like, the user registration is accepted without obtaining any information other than the user information regarding the facility information.

  On the other hand, when a guardian (watcher) is selected in the user registration, the management server 7 prompts the watcher terminal 5 to input watchee identification information that the watcher knows, and accepts it. The watcher identification information and the watchee identification information are stored in association with each other (for example, FIG. 3 <watcher file>). At this time, from where in the series of user registration input work, "facility information" can be selected, and the location information of the watched person can be viewed by facility staff (teachers, resident facility staff, etc.) , Let the watcher check.

  Specifically, the management server 7 notifies the school of the facility information already registered as described above, for example, “children's location information, etc.” at any timing of user registration from the watcher terminal 5. The message is transmitted to the watcher terminal 5 together with a confirmation message such as “Do you have any?”. The watcher can select the name of the facility such as the school where the watcher goes by operating the watcher terminal 5, and can accept that the watcher's location information etc. can be viewed from the facility side. Send.

  The management server 7 stores the facility identification information of the selected facility in association with the watcher identification information of the watcher. As in the first to fourth embodiments, for example, the watcher identification information and the watcher identification information are stored in association with each other as in <watcher file> shown in FIG. Whether or not the watcher approves the viewing of the location information from the facility side may be stored in association with flag information individually, or only when there is consent, the watcher identification information and the facility Regardless of the method of confirming the presence or absence of consent, such as determining that there is no consent when there is no facility identification information associated with the watcher identification information, and that there is no consent by storing it in association with the identification information. .

  By the above processing, when the facility is a school, the teachers of the school can obtain the consent of the guardian (watcher) of the child (watcher) via the facility terminal 6. Etc. can only be confirmed. Watchers who are reluctant to be able to view the location information of the watcher on the facility side can restrict the view, so it is easy to get a sense of security, and the facility side can also watch only those with the consent of the watcher This also helps prevent troubles related to privacy between the person and the facility. Furthermore, the facility staff does not need to collect and input the guardian identification information and the guardian identification information individually.

  In addition, when a watcher deviates from a normal route such as a school road, the watcher deviates from the normal route not only to the watcher terminal 5 held by the watcher of the watchee but also to the facility terminal 6. It may be notified by e-mail or other messages. At least, if there is an approval for viewing from the watcher, the facility identification information, the watcher identification information, and the watcher identification information are stored in the management server 7 in association with each other. When a problem arises that deviates from the normal route, it is easy to identify and grasp the watcher and the watcher to be contacted as a facility.

  The present invention is not limited to the above examples. For example, the management server 7 does not need to be a single hardware, and may be configured from a plurality of hardware. The types of information exchanged between the various files and hardware described so far or the method of association are not limited as described above, and each information can be referred to as necessary. Just do it.
