Description

The present invention relates to a watching system. More specifically, the present invention relates to a monitoring system capable of supporting monitoring services provided by multiple businesses.

Children and the elderly may be missing. Therefore, there is an attempt to bring a target person such as a child or an elderly person with a device capable of grasping position information and manage the position information so that the missing target person can be detected early. Such an attempt is called a watching service.

In the watching service, there is a method of detecting and managing the position information by having a target person carry a GPS device. As an example of this method, there is a technique described in Patent Document 1 below. In the case of this method, there is a problem that the GPS device consumes a lot of battery and needs to be charged frequently.

Therefore, in recent years, a watching service using a BLE (Bluetooth (registered trademark) Low Energy) tag has been considered.

The BLE tag can be driven by a button type battery for about one to one and a half years, and can solve the problem of battery consumption in the conventional GPS device. On the other hand, the BLE tag does not detect the position information by itself, but the BLE tag emits a weak radio wave in about 20 meters square without interruption, and the weak radio wave can detect the Bluetooth (registered trademark) radio wave. The position information of the BLE tag is grasped by sending the position information and identification information of the BLE detector, the position information of the smartphone, etc. to a predetermined server by detecting with the BLE detector or the smartphone.

JP, 2005-114863, A

In the case of the watching service using the BLE tag, as described above, if there is no BLE detector or smartphone capable of detecting the Bluetooth (registered trademark) radio wave around the BLE tag, the position information of the BLE tag is specified. There are issues that cannot be solved.

Therefore, in a watching service using BLE tags, it is extremely important how many BLE detectors and smartphones are compatible. Therefore, so that Bluetooth (registered trademark) radio waves can be detected by the BLE tag, BLE detectors are installed in various places, and smartphone users are called for cooperation by urging them to download a predetermined application program. Is working.

However, although there are many businesses that provide monitoring services, since they perform processing by their own methods, it is necessary to install a BLE detector or an application program for each business. Therefore, the burden of installation cost and development cost is heavy for the business operator. In addition, it is not possible to dispel concerns that users of the monitoring service, including the target person, can only detect it within the range of the monitoring service to which they subscribe.

The present inventor has invented a watching system in view of the above problems.

A first aspect of the invention is a watching system that uses a cooperation terminal that detects a signal from a transmission device possessed by a target person and a management server, wherein the cooperation terminal is a signal from the transmission device that is detected by a detection device. Among them, the selection processing unit that determines whether the identification information of the predetermined operator is included, and when it is determined that the identification information of the predetermined operator is included, the position information of the cooperation terminal is extracted. And a management-side transmission processing unit that transmits detection information including the position information and a part or all of the signal to the management server. A broadcast notification processing unit that receives a designation of an area to send a broadcast notification prompting to turn on the watching function in the cooperation terminal and sends the broadcast notification to the cooperation terminals in the area, and a part of the detection information or A format conversion processing unit that converts all the information into the determined business operator format, and a business operator transmission processing unit that sends the converted format information to the business service service system of the determined business operator. It is a monitoring system that has.

With the configuration according to the present invention, it is possible to detect a signal from a transmitting device in a watching service provided by a plurality of companies with a cooperation terminal and send the signal to a company service system which is a computer system of the corresponding company. Becomes As a result, the burden of installation costs and development costs required for each business can be reduced.

The watching service is also a service with a strong public nature. As a result, government agencies may wish to introduce a monitoring service. On the other hand, it may be concerned from the viewpoint of the neutrality of the administration that the administrative agency recommends and introduces one business operator. Since the watching system of the present invention can be linked with the watching service of a plurality of businesses, while maintaining the independence of the watching service of each business, residents can also secure the freedom to conclude with a plurality of businesses. It is also possible to maintain the neutrality of administration.

In the above-mentioned invention, the cooperation terminal includes an obfuscation processing unit that executes obfuscation processing on information including part or all of the signal and the position information, and the management-side transmission processing The unit can be configured like a watching system that sends the obfuscation-processed detection information to the management server.

The detection information includes information about privacy such as a signal from the transmitter and position information of the cooperation terminal. Therefore, it is preferable to execute the obfuscation process as in the present invention and then send it to the management server.

In the above invention, when the cooperation terminal receives the simultaneous notification from the management server and receives an operation for turning on the watching function, the cooperation side identification information and the watching function are turned on. Is sent to the management server, and when the management server accepts the cooperation-side identification information and the information indicating that the watching function has been turned on, the management server determines the information in advance in association with the cooperation-side identification information. It can be configured like a watching system that gives incentives.

When executing the watching function on the cooperation terminal, there is a problem that the battery is consumed. Therefore, some collaborators may turn off the watching function. In such a case, the signal from the transmitting device cannot be detected and sent as detection information to the management server. On the other hand, what is important in the monitoring service is the large number of detectors that can detect signals from transmitters. Therefore, even if a collaborator normally turns off the watching function, if any incentive occurs when a simultaneous notification is given as in the present invention, it may be an incentive to turn on the watching function. As a result, it is possible to increase the number of cooperating terminals that execute the watching function, which can lead to detection of the target person's position information.

A fourth aspect of the present invention is a watching system that uses a detector that is fixedly installed and that detects a signal from a transmission device that the subject has, and a management server, wherein the detector is detected by the detection device. Among the signals from the transmitting device, the selection processing unit which determines whether the identification information of the predetermined operator is included, and when it is determined that the identification information of the predetermined operator is included, An identification information processing unit that extracts identification information of a detector, a management-side transmission processing unit that transmits detection information including a part or all of the signal and identification information of the detector to the management server. Therefore, the management server identifies the position information based on the identification information of the detector in the detection information received from the detector, and a part or all of the position information in the detection information. A format conversion processing unit that converts information into the determined business operator format; and a business operator transmission processing unit that sends the converted format information to the business service service system of the determined business operator, It is a monitoring system.

By configuring as in the present invention, the same effect as in the case of the first invention can be obtained. That is, it becomes possible to detect a signal from a transmitting device in a watching service provided by a plurality of businesses with a cooperation terminal and send it to the business operator service system which is a computer system of the corresponding business. As a result, the burden of installation costs and development costs required for each business can be reduced. In addition, while maintaining the independence of the monitoring service for each business operator, the residents can also secure the freedom to conclude with multiple business operators and maintain the neutrality of administration.

The detection information includes information about privacy such as a signal from the transmitting device. Therefore, it is preferable to execute the obfuscation process as in the present invention and then send it to the management server.

In the above-described invention, the signal from the transmitting device possessed by the subject can be configured like a watching system using 2.4 GHz radio waves.

Although any communication method can be used in the transmission device, if the radio wave is strong, the range that can be received is widened, and thus the position cannot be specified. Moreover, even if the radio wave is too weak, the range that can be received becomes too narrow, which does not lead to the specification of the position. Therefore, it is preferable to use a 2.4 GHz band radio wave that can be received in the range of several meters to several tens of meters. As this band, for example, BLE can be used. In the case of BLE, there is also a technical effect that it is possible to suppress the battery consumption of the transmitter because it is power saving.

The cooperation terminal can be realized by causing the cooperation terminal to read and execute the program of the present invention. That is, the cooperation terminal that detects the signal from the transmitting device owned by the target person is selected to determine whether or not the identification information of the predetermined operator is included in the signal from the transmitting device detected by the detecting device.

The functions of the respective means in the present invention are only logically distinguished from each other, and may physically or virtually form the same area.

The transmitting device 5 is a device possessed by the watching target person, and transmits a signal including identification information (sending side identification information) capable of identifying the sending device 5 or the target person in advance by short-range wireless communication. Short-distance wireless communication is a communication method for transmitting a weak electric wave within a range of several meters to several tens of meters, and corresponds to Bluetooth (registered trademark), for example. In the following embodiments of the present invention, a case will be described in which the transmission device 5 transmits a weak radio wave according to the BLE (Bluetooth (registered trademark) Low Energy) standard that uses a radio wave in the 2.4 GHz band, but is not limited thereto. Not a thing.

The detection device 2 is a device that detects a radio wave transmitted from the transmission device 5. The detection device 2 includes a detector 2b installed at a predetermined place in the city, such as a utility pole, a vending machine, various buildings such as an administrative agency or a public institution, or a smartphone used by a collaborator who cooperates in watching. A cooperation terminal 2a including a portable communication terminal is included.

The cooperation terminal 2a includes a detection device 21 that detects radio waves from the transmission device 5, a position information device 22 that measures position information based on signals from GPS satellites, and a detection processing unit 20a that is an application program. On the cooperation terminal 2a, the watching function of the application program can be switched on and off. Since the watching function consumes battery due to detection of radio waves from the transmitter 5 and detection of position information, the cooperator can arbitrarily switch the watching function on and off to control the battery consumption.

The detector 2b has a detection device 21 and a detection processing unit 20b.

The detection processing unit 20a in the cooperation terminal 2a is a computer program that realizes a watching function in the cooperation terminal 2a, and includes a selection processing unit 201a, a position information processing unit 202a, an obfuscation processing unit 203a, and a management-side transmission processing unit 204a. Have.

The selection processing unit 201a selects the signal from the transmission device 5 delivered to the target person by the preset monitoring service of the business, among the signals of the radio waves from the transmission device 5 detected by the detection device 21. Since the detection device 21 detects the radio wave by the corresponding short-range wireless communication, the selection processing unit 201a selects whether or not the signal is from the target business operator based on the information included in the signal.

Specifically, when an iBeacon-compliant signal is detected, the information of ProximityUUID/Major/Minor of the iBeacon packet is referred to, and it is determined whether or not it is the identification information of the preset operator. If it is the identification information of the operator set in advance, the subsequent processing is executed, and if not, it is discarded as it is.

On the other hand, when a signal that is not compliant with iBeacon is detected, in the AD structure in the Advertising Packet Payload, the company identifier (Company Identifier information) stored in the AD data of the AD structure whose AD type is the Manufacturer Specific Data (0xFF) is detected. Refer to to determine whether it is the identification information of the operator set in advance. If it is the identification information of the operator set in advance, the subsequent processing is executed, and if not, it is discarded as it is.

Note that the selection process is not limited to the above, and may be another process according to the standard of the communication system of the short-range wireless communication between the transmission device 5 and the detection device 2.

When the position information processing unit 202a determines that the selection processing unit 201a has selected the signal from the transmission device 5 of the operator's preset watching service, the position information processing unit 202a extracts the position information measured by the position information device 22. To do. Since the position information device 22 regularly measures the position information of the cooperation terminal 2a, in addition to extracting the measured position information, the position information device 22 from the transmission device 5 of the operator's watching service preset in the selection processing unit 201a. When it is determined that the signal is selected, the position information device 22 may measure the position information and extract it.

Further, the position information processing unit 202a periodically measures the position information by the position information device 22 in the cooperation terminal 2a, and the measured position information and the identification information of the cooperation terminal 2a or the cooperation person (cooperation side identification information). It is transmitted to the management server 3.

The obfuscation processing unit 203a cooperates with the signal from the transmitter 5 of the preset monitoring service of the operator selected by the selection processing unit 201a, the position information of the cooperation terminal 2a acquired by the position information processing unit 202a, and the cooperation. Obfuscation processing that makes it difficult for a third party to decipher the side identification information is performed. An example of the obfuscation process is an encryption process. At this time, the obfuscation processing unit 203a may perform the obfuscation processing after converting the detected signal, position information, and cooperation side identification information into a predetermined format.

The management-side transmission processing unit 204a uses the obfuscation processing performed by the obfuscation processing unit 203a, a signal from the transmitter 5 of the operator's watching service set in advance, and the cooperation terminal acquired by the position information processing unit 202a. The detection information including the position information of 2a and the cooperation side identification information is transmitted to the management server 3.

The detection processing unit 20b in the detector 2b includes a selection processing unit 201b, an identification information processing unit 205b, an obfuscation processing unit 203b, and a management-side transmission processing unit 204b.

The selection processing unit 201b in the detection processing unit 20b executes the same processing as the selection processing unit 201a.

When the identification information processing unit 205b determines that the selection processing unit 201b has selected the signal from the transmitter 5 of the preset monitoring service of the operator, the identification information (detector identification) for identifying the detector 2b. Information).

The obfuscation processing unit 203b makes it difficult for a third party to decipher the signal from the transmitter 5 of the preset monitoring service of the business operator selected by the selection processing unit 201b and the detector identification information. Perform obfuscation processing. An example of the obfuscation process is an encryption process. At this time, the obfuscation processing unit 203b may perform the obfuscation processing after converting the detected signal and the identification information of the detector 2b into a predetermined format.

The management-side transmission processing unit 204b outputs information obtained by performing the obfuscation processing by the obfuscation processing unit 203b, detection information including a signal from the transmitter 5 of the monitoring service of the operator set in advance, and detector identification information. It is transmitted to the management server 3.

The management server 3 is a computer system used by an administrative agency, a business operator, a person entrusted by them, or the like who operates the watching system 1 of the present invention, and includes a reception processing unit 30, a simultaneous notification processing unit 31, and position information identification. It has a processing unit 32, a format conversion processing unit 33, and a company transmission processing unit 34.

The reception processing unit 30 receives various kinds of information from the detection device 2. When the obfuscation-processed detection information is received from the detection device 2, the detection information is decrypted.

The simultaneous notification processing unit 31 accepts the area specification of the simultaneous notification by the operation of the operator of the management server 3, and the function of the detection processing unit 20 (the application program watching function for the cooperation terminal 2a in the specified area). ) Send push notification to turn on. Specifically, since the management server 3 regularly receives the position information and the cooperation side identification information from the cooperation terminal 2a, the management server 3 compares the specified area with the position information, and is within the area. Identify the identification information of the cooperation side. Then, a push notification including a message for turning on the function of the detection processing unit 20 is sent to the specified cooperation terminal 2a. The management server 3 manages the identification information of the cooperation side and the attributes of the cooperation person, for example, age, sex, address, occupation, etc., and the attribute at the time of sending the bush notification may be designated. ..

FIG. 5 shows an example of a screen for sending a push notification by the operator of the management server 3. The operator inputs a message including a request to turn on the watching function from the screen shown in FIG. 5, selects push notification, and then sends a push notification on the map showing the location of the cooperation terminal 2a. Specify the area to be performed. Examples of the map information in which the area is designated are shown in FIGS. 6 shows the case where the area is specified by a rectangle on the map, FIG. 7 shows the case where the area is specified by the circle, and FIG. 8 shows the case where the map is divided into meshes and the area is specified in mesh units. Is. In addition to the area designation from the map information as shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, the destination of the push notification may be designated by the address in the attribute information of the cooperation terminal 2a.

When the reception processing unit 30 receives the information including the signal from the transmitter 5 of the preset monitoring service of the operator and the detector identification information in the reception processing unit 30 in the reception processing unit 30, The position information corresponding to the detector identification information is specified. The detector identification information and the position information that is the installation location thereof are stored in advance in the management server 3 in association with each other.

The format conversion processing unit 33, based on the identification information of the operator in the signal from the transmitter 5 of the operator's watching service set in advance, sets the signal and the cooperation terminal 2a in a format suitable for the operator. The position information or the position information of the detector 2b specified by the position information specifying processing unit 32 is converted.

The business operator transmission processing unit 34 sends the detection information converted by the format conversion processing unit 33 to the computer system (business operator service system 4) of the business operator corresponding to the business operator identification information.

The company service system 4 is a computer system used by each company for watching services. Since each specification in the business operator service system 4 is different for each business operator, the management server 3 converts the format for use by each business operator and then sends the detection information. At this time, the detection information detected by the transmitter 5 of the company A is sent only to the company service system 4 of the company A. As a result, the user of the watching service can ensure privacy because the detection information is transmitted only to the business operator to which he/she subscribes.

Next, an example of the processing process of the watching system 1 of the present invention will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 4 and the image diagram of FIG. In the following description, companies A to C are set as target businesses, and company A watching service, company B watching service, and company C watching service are executed respectively. Further, it is assumed that the guardian has the child with the transmitter 5 provided by the company A watching service and the administrative agency operates the management server 3.

In the cooperation terminal 2a, the position information device 22 periodically measures the position information, and at least the position information and the cooperation-side identification information are sent to the management server 3. Further, the management server 3 receives and stores them in the reception processing unit 30. In addition, each target person possesses the transmitter 5, and the signal transmitted from the transmitter 5 is detected by the detectors 2b installed in various places in the city and the cooperation terminal 2a owned by the collaborator. It is detected by the device 2, and the detection information is notified to each company service system 4 via the management server 3.

For example, when the detector 2b detects a signal of a weak radio wave transmitted from the transmitter 5 (S100), it is detected whether the identification information of the business operator included in the signal belongs to the companies A to C. The selection processing unit 201b of the unit 20b makes a determination (S110), and if it is not from A company to C company, it is discarded. On the other hand, if the identification information processing unit 205b of the detection processing unit 20b extracts the detector identification information (S120, S140) when it is determined that the data is from A company to C company, the obfuscation processing unit 203b Obfuscation processing is performed on the signal from the transmitter 5 of the operator's watching service set in advance and the detector identification information (S150). Then, the management-side transmission processing unit 204b transmits the detection information obtained by performing the obfuscation process to the management server 3 (S160).

Even when the cooperation terminal 2a detects a signal of a weak radio wave transmitted from the transmitter 5 (S100), if the watching function is turned on, the identification information of the operator included in the signal is A. The selection processing unit 201a of the detection processing unit 20a determines whether it belongs to companies A to C (S110), and if it does not belong to companies A to C, it is discarded as it is. On the other hand, when it is determined that it belongs to the companies A to C, the position information processing unit 202a of the detection processing unit 20a acquires the position information measured by the position information device 22 (S120, S130), and the obfuscation is performed. In the processing unit 203a, the obfuscation process is performed on the signal from the transmitter 5 of the operator's preset monitoring service, the position information, and the cooperation-side identification information (S150). Then, the management-side transmission processing unit 204a transmits the detection information obtained by performing the obfuscation process to the management server 3 (S160).

The acceptance processing unit 30 of the management server 3 accepts the obfuscation-processed detection information (S170), decodes the detection information, and if the detection information is from the detector 2b (S180), position information. The identification processing unit 32 identifies the position information corresponding to the identification information of the detector 2b in the detection information (S190).

The format conversion processing unit 33, based on the identification information of the business operator in the detection information, converts the signal into the format suitable for the business operator and the position information of the cooperation terminal 2a or the detector specified by the position information specifying processing unit 32. The position information of 2b is converted (S200), and the business operator transmission processing unit 34 sends the detection information converted by the format conversion processing unit 33 to the computer system of the business operator to which the business operator identification information corresponds. (S210). At this time, not all of the above signals may be sent, but only some of them may be sent, or a certain conversion process may be performed on the above signals.

By performing such processing, the signal transmitted from the transmission device 5 is sent to the enterprise service system 4 of each enterprise if it is detected. Then, the company service system 4 of each company executes the process for each company (S220).

By performing such a process, in the entrepreneur service system 4 of each entrepreneur, the position information of the transmission device 5 is always recorded via the detection device 2 and the management server 3.

If a child is missing, parents/guardians will call the police to request a search. The guardian knows the watching service (A company watching service) he/she has subscribed to, so he/she informs the police of the missing service to the A company watching service by the police. The position information based on the signal from the device 5 is queried and obtained. The police will confirm the image of the security camera near the location information obtained and identify the place that seems to be missing. The information on the place that seems to be missing is not limited to the above, and may be based on various other information such as sighting information.

At the request of parents, the police cooperate with city halls and other administrative agencies to provide the administrative agencies with information on where the child is supposed to be missing.

In response to this, the person in charge of the administrative body displayed the screen for the push notification shown in FIG. 5 by performing a predetermined operation on the management server 3, and it seems that the police provided the missing information. Based on the information of the location to be notified, the area for simultaneous notification is designated (FIGS. 5 to 8). Upon receiving this designation, the simultaneous notification processing unit 31 identifies the cooperation-side identification information in the designated area by comparing the designated area with the position information. Then, a push notification including a message requesting to turn on the watching function is sent to the specified cooperation terminal 2a.

If the collaborator of the cooperation terminal 2a that has received the push notification cooperates with the watching by referring to the message of the push notification, by performing a predetermined operation on the cooperation terminal 2a, "watching" from the operation screen of the application program. By selecting the icon, the execution of the process of the watching function (function of the detection processing unit 20) is started in the cooperation terminal 2a. FIG. 10 is a diagram schematically showing a state in which the “watching” icon is selected on the operation screen of the application program, and FIG. 11 shows that the watching function is turned on and the “watching” icon becomes brighter as a result of the selection operation. It is a figure which shows the opened state typically.

As described above, the simultaneous notification from the administrative body causes the cooperation function to be turned on in the cooperation terminal 2a that has received the push notification, so that a weak radio wave signal from the transmitter 5 is detected and the management server The number of detecting devices 2 for sending to the operator service system 4 via 3 is increased. As a result, it becomes easier to detect the signal from the transmitting device 5 carried by the child to be searched.

Then, as in the conventional case, the cooperation terminal 2a and the detector 2b detect the signal transmitted from the transmission device 5, and notify the detection information to each enterprise service system 4 via the management server 3. ing.

That is, the processes of S100 to S220 described above are executed.

When the police inquires about the location information of the child to the company A to which the child to be searched joins, the number of detection devices 2 has increased compared to before the simultaneous notification of administrative agencies. It is easy to detect a signal from the transmitting device 5 owned by. Therefore, by monitoring the positional information of the child in the company service system 4 of the company A, it is possible to lead to the discovery of the child. Further, at the time of the simultaneous notification, since the sender identification information of the transmitter 5 owned by the child is not sent to the cooperation terminal 2a to which the simultaneous notification is sent, the privacy of the child can be protected.

Furthermore, since it is sufficient for the police to monitor only the businesses to which the target children are subscribing, it is possible to reduce the information to be monitored, which leads to a reduction in the burden.

The management server 3 may give an incentive such as points to the collaborators who have received the simultaneous notification and turned on the watching function. In this case, the management server 3 stores the cooperation-side identification information and the incentive information in association with each other.

In this case, when the cooperation terminal 2a receives an operation for turning on the function of the detection processing unit 20a, the cooperation terminal 2a sends the cooperation server identification information and information indicating that the watching function is turned on.

When this information is received by the reception processing unit 30 of the management server 3, a predetermined incentive is additionally stored based on the cooperation side identification information. In the case of points provided by the local government as an incentive, a process of adding a predetermined number of points is executed. This point is preferably available for various uses within the municipality concerned.

This motivates the collaborators to turn on the watching function.

In each of the above-described embodiments, the processing can be appropriately changed without departing from the technical idea of the present invention. For example, the order of processing may be changed, and some processing may not be executed.

By using the watching system 1 of the present invention, the watching system 1 capable of supporting the watching service provided by a plurality of businesses can be provided. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the burden of providing BLE detectors and application programs for each business operator, and also for the user, the sense of security that even BLE detectors and smartphones of other watching services can be detected. Since it is obtained, it will be an opportunity to subscribe to the watching service.
