Description

The present disclosure relates to a bedding proposal system and a bedding proposal method used when proposing bedding to a user.

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2015-94740 describes a pillow height determining device. The pillow height determination device is used by a tablet terminal. The height determining device includes a control unit, a camera, a display unit, a touch panel, a storage unit, and a communication unit. The image of the pillow and the list of prices for each material of the pillow are stored in the storage unit.

The control unit includes an acquisition unit, a position determination unit, a first straight line calculation unit, a second straight line calculation unit, an angle calculation unit, a height calculation unit, and a bedding image generation unit. The acquisition unit acquires and displays a person image obtained by a camera that captures the side view of the subject when the subject stands upright on the display unit. The positioning unit determines the positions of the occipital region, cervical spine, back, hips, and buttocks of the subject in the person image.

The first straight line calculation unit calculates the first straight line connecting the position of the back of the head and the position of the back, and the second straight line unit calculates the second straight line connecting the back and the buttocks. The angle calculation unit calculates the head inclination angle, which is the intersection angle between the first straight line and the second straight line. The height determination unit determines the height of the pillow so that the height of the pillow increases as the head tilt angle increases. The bedding image generator displays an image of the determined pillow height, an image of the bedding, and a portrait image, and these images are shown to the subject.

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2015-94740

In the pillow height determination device described above, the pillow and the bedding are displayed together with the person image. However, it is not possible to make a sufficient proposal to the user of the bedding only by displaying the pillow, the bedding, and the person image, and the proposal is insufficient. Further, in the pillow height determination device described above, the position determination unit determines the positions of the occipital region, cervical spine, back, hips, and buttocks of the subject in the person image.

However, the captured image varies depending on the distance from the subject to the camera and the shooting angle of the camera with respect to the subject. Therefore, when the positions of the back of the head, the cervical spine, the back, the hips, and the buttocks are determined from the captured portrait image, the positions determined by the imaging environment and the imaging conditions may vary. Therefore, there is room for improvement in the accuracy of the position of each part of the body to be acquired.

It is an object of the present disclosure to provide a bedding proposal system and a bedding proposal method that can acquire the position of each part of the body more accurately and can sufficiently propose bedding suitable for the user.

The bedding proposal system according to the present disclosure is a bedding proposal system used when proposing bedding to a user, and is a height input unit for inputting the height of the user and a photographing unit for photographing the body of the user of the bedding. And the bedding from the height input by the height input unit, the body position acquisition unit that acquires the position of each part of the body from the body photographed by the imaging unit, and the position of each part of the body acquired by the body position acquisition unit. It is provided with a content data calculation unit that calculates the content data of the above and displays the content data.

In the bedding proposal system according to the present disclosure, the height of the user is input in the height input section, and the body of the user is photographed by the photographing section. Then, the body position acquisition unit acquires the position of each part of the body from the input height and the photographed body of the user. Since the height is a numerical value that is likely to be known by the user himself / herself, the user can easily input the numerical value of his / her own height. Therefore, the position of each part of the user's body can be easily measured based on the input height. Further, since the position of each part of the body is acquired using the input height, it is possible to accurately acquire the position of each part based on the height. That is, since the positions of the cervical spine, the back, and the like are acquired based on the height, the positions of each part can be acquired regardless of the imaging environment and imaging conditions. As a result, the position of each part of the body can be acquired more accurately. Further, the content data calculation unit calculates the content data of the bedding from the acquired positions of each part of the body, and the content data of the bedding is displayed. Therefore, the user can grasp the content of the bedding suitable for himself only by looking at the content data on the screen. Therefore, it is possible to sufficiently propose the bedding suitable for the user to the user of the bedding.

The bedding proposal system described above may include a size calculation display unit that calculates the size of each part from the position of each part of the body acquired by the body position acquisition unit and displays the size. In this case, since the size calculation display unit displays the size of each part of the body, the user can grasp the details of each part of the body by looking at the screen.

The above-mentioned bedding proposal system includes a mark display unit that displays a movable mark on the image together with an image of the body taken by the photographing unit, and the body position acquisition unit is located at the position of the moved mark on the image. The position of each part may be acquired based on the above. In this case, the position of each part of the body can be specified by moving the position of the mark on the image. Therefore, it is possible to acquire the position of each part more accurately.

The bedding proposal system described above may include a body shape pattern determination unit that determines the body shape of the user from the position of each part of the body acquired by the body position acquisition unit. In this case, the body shape pattern determination unit determines the body shape of the user from the position of each part of the body. Therefore, the user can grasp which body shape pattern his / her body shape is.

The bedding may be a mattress having a plurality of areas into which the pads are inserted, and the content data calculation unit may calculate the necessity of inserting the pads for each area and display it for each area. In this case, the necessity of inserting the pad into the mattress is displayed for each area of the mattress. Therefore, not only the user but also the bedding proposer can grasp the necessity of inserting the pad, and can propose a more appropriate mattress.

The content data calculation unit may display a parts type table in which the types of parts used in the mattress area are displayed. In this case, since the type of parts used in the mattress area is displayed, for example, soft parts (“soft” as an example) or hard parts (“hard” as an example) used in the mattress area can be displayed. It is possible to propose a mattress that is more suitable for a person.

The bedding may be a pillow having a plurality of internal spaces in which the contents are accommodated, and the content data calculation unit may calculate the amount of the contents for each internal space and display it for each internal space. .. In this case, the amount of contents in each internal space of the pillow is displayed for each internal space of the pillow. Therefore, not only the user but also the bedding proposer can grasp the amount of the contents for each internal space, and can propose a more appropriate pillow.

The bedding proposal method according to the present disclosure is a bedding proposal method for proposing bedding to the user, and is input in a step of inputting the height of the user, a step of photographing the body of the user of the bedding, and a step of inputting. The step of acquiring the position of each part of the body from the body taken in the step of taking a picture, and the step of calculating the content data of the bedding from the position of each part of the body and displaying the content data. Be prepared.

In the bedding proposal method according to the present disclosure, the height of the user is input and the body of the user is photographed. Then, the position of each part of the body is acquired from the input height and the photographed body. As described above, since it is highly possible that the height is known by the user himself / herself, the user can easily input the height, so that the position of each part of the body can be easily measured. Further, by acquiring the position of each part of the body using the input height, it is possible to acquire the position of each part more accurately with reference to the height. Therefore, since the position of each part can be acquired independently of the shooting environment and the shooting conditions, the position of each part of the body can be acquired more accurately. Further, the content data of the bedding is calculated based on the acquired position of each part of the body, and the content data is displayed. Therefore, as in the above-mentioned bedding proposal system, it is possible to sufficiently propose to the bedding user a bedding suitable for the user.

According to the present disclosure, it is possible to acquire the position of each part of the body more accurately, and it is possible to sufficiently propose bedding suitable for the user.

In the bedding proposal system and the bedding proposal method according to the present disclosure, bedding is proposed to the user. In the present disclosure, "bedding" refers to what is applied to the body when resting. Examples of the "bedding" include bedding such as mattresses or mattresses, bedding such as comforters, pillows, bed pads, cushions or cushions.

In the present disclosure, "user" refers to a person who uses bedding. The "user" includes a person who purchases bedding or a person who tries bedding. The bedding proposal system includes a photographing unit that photographs the user's body. In the present disclosure, the "photographing unit" refers to an image of the user's body. Examples of the "shooting unit" include a camera, a mobile terminal, or a scanner such as a 3D scanner.

The bedding proposal system includes a body position acquisition unit that acquires the position of each part of the body. The "parts" of the body refer to parts of the body, such as at least one of the crown, occipital region, cervical spine, back, buttocks, back of knees and heels. The bedding proposal system includes a content data calculation unit that calculates the content data of the bedding and displays the content data. The "bedding content data" indicates information on the contents of the bedding. Examples of the "bedding content data" include the amount of content contained in the pad inserted into the mattress or the internal space of the pillow.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of the bedding proposal system 1 according to the embodiment. The bedding proposal system 1 includes, for example, an information terminal 2 and a server 10. The server 10 is capable of communicating with the information terminal 2. As an example, the server 10 includes a processor (for example, a CPU) that executes an operating system and software (application), a main storage unit composed of ROM and RAM, and an auxiliary storage unit composed of a hard disk or flash memory. , A communication control unit composed of a network card or a wireless communication module, an input device such as a keyboard or a mouse, and an output device such as a monitor. However, the configuration of the server 10 is not limited to the above and can be changed as appropriate.

Each functional element of the server 10 is realized by having a processor or a storage unit (for example, the above-mentioned main storage unit or auxiliary storage unit) read predetermined software and executing the software. The processor operates the communication control unit, the input device, or the output device described above according to the software, and reads and writes data in the storage unit. The data or database used for the processing of the server 10 is stored in the storage unit.

The information terminal 2 is, for example, a device capable of executing the function of the server 10. The information terminal 2 is, for example, a mobile terminal. The "portable terminal" refers to a portable terminal such as a mobile phone including a smartphone, a tablet or a laptop computer. The information terminal 2 may be a terminal other than a mobile terminal, and may be, for example, a personal computer. For example, the information terminal 2 includes both an information terminal of a user who uses bedding and an information terminal of a proposer who proposes bedding.

As an example, the server 10 has a height input unit 11, an image acquisition unit 12, a mark display unit 13, a body position acquisition unit 14, a size calculation display unit 15, a body shape pattern determination unit 16, and content data calculation as functional components. Including part 17.

First, an example in which the bedding is a mattress (an example in which a mattress is proposed) will be described. As shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, the height input unit 11 is input, for example, when the application provided from the server 10 to the information terminal 2 is used. The input of the height L of the user M to the height input unit 11 may be performed by the user M, or may be performed by the bedding proposer (for example, a salesperson or the like, a bedding provider or a bedding advisor). good. The weight of the user M may be input to the height input unit 11 together with the input of the height L of the user M to the height input unit 11.

The image acquisition unit 12 acquires an image of the body of the user M. For example, an image of the body of the user M taken by the camera (shooting unit) of the information terminal 2 is acquired by the image acquisition unit 12. As a specific example, by activating the application on the information terminal 2 and photographing the body of the user M on the information terminal 2, the image acquisition unit 12 acquires the photographed image of the body.

The image acquisition unit 12 may acquire an image by taking a picture together with the memory R arranged behind the body of the user M. Further, an image taken by a shooting unit other than the camera of the information terminal 2 (for example, a camera different from the information terminal 2) may be acquired by the image acquisition unit 12.

The mark display unit 13 displays the mark K indicating the position of each part of the body on the image of the information terminal 2 together with the image of the body of the user M acquired by the image acquisition unit 12. For example, the mark display unit 13 displays a plurality of marks K for each body part of the user M. The mark K can be moved by touching the screen of the information terminal 2 with a finger, for example, and the body part of the user M can be specified by moving the mark K.

In the example of FIG. 2, a plurality of (six as an example) marks K corresponding to each of the cervical spine M1, the back M2, the waist M3, the buttocks M4, the back of the knee M5, and the heel M6 of the user M are displayed. For example, by the proposer or user of the bedding, each mark K is aligned with each part of the body on the image (for example, the positions of the cervical spine M1, the back M2, the waist M3, the buttocks M4, the back of the knee M5 and the heel M6). Will be done.

The body position acquisition unit 14 acquires the position of each part of the body from the height L input by the height input unit 11 and the body of the user M photographed by the above-mentioned photographing unit. For example, the body position acquisition unit 14 acquires the position of each portion from the height L and the position of the body marked with the mark K on the image. That is, the body position acquisition unit 14 acquires the position of each part of the body based on the position of the mark K moved on the image.

The size calculation display unit 15 displays the size of each part from the position of each part of the body of the user M acquired by the body position acquisition unit 14. In the example of FIG. 3, the size calculation display unit 15 has a height L1 from the cervical spine M1 to the crown M7, a height L2 from the back M2 to the crown M7, a height L3 from the waist M3 to the crown M7, and the buttocks. The height L4 from M4 to the crown M7 and the height L5 from the back of the knee M5 to the crown M7 are calculated.

The value of the height L input by the height input unit 11 corresponds to the height from the heel M6 to the crown M7 on the photographed image of the body. The respective values of the heights L1 to L5 described above and the horizontal positions W1 to W6 described later are calculated from the ratio to the input height L. As an example, when the height L is input as 170 cm in the height input unit 11 and the ratio of the height L4 to the height L on the image is 0.5, the height L4 from the buttocks M4 to the crown M7 is 85 cm. It is calculated. In this way, since the heights L1 to L5 and the horizontal positions W1 to W6 are obtained from the input ratio to the height L, the respective values of the heights L1 to L5 and the horizontal positions W1 to W6 can be obtained with high accuracy.

Further, the size calculation display unit 15 has a lateral position W1 of the cervical spine M1, a lateral position W2 of the back M2, a lateral position W3 of the waist M3, a lateral position W4 of the buttocks M4, a lateral position W5 of the back of the knee M5, and the lateral position of the heel M6. At least one of the positions W6 may be calculated. In the present disclosure, the "lateral position" indicates the lateral position of each part of the body, for example, the degree of protrusion and the degree of depression of each part in the front-back direction of the body.

Generally, each of the cervical vertebrae M1 and the lumbar M3 is recessed in the anterior side of the body with respect to the back M2, and the buttocks M4 protrudes from the lumbar M3 to the posterior side of the body. The back of the knee M5 may be recessed anteriorly from the buttocks M4, and the heel M6 may protrude posteriorly from the back of the knee M5. FIG. 3 shows an example in which the respective values of the horizontal positions W1, W2, W3, W5, and W6 are positive when the value of the horizontal position W4 is 0. That is, in the example of FIG. 3, the lateral positions W1, W2, W3, W5, and W6 indicate the degree of depression toward the front side of the body with respect to the lateral position W4. However, the display method of the horizontal positions W1 to W6 can be changed as appropriate.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the size calculation display unit 15 displays the calculated heights L1 to L5 and the horizontal positions W1 to W6 on the screen 21, for example. As an example, the screen 21 is a screen displayed on the display of the information terminal 2. The screen 21 has a height 21b, a weight 21c, a head-cervical spine length 21d, a cervical spine lateral position 21f, a head-back length 21g, a back lateral position 21h, a head-waist length 21j, and a waist. The lateral position 21k, the head-to-hip length 21m, the lateral position 21p of the hip, the head-to-knee length 21q, and the head-to-heel length 21s are displayed.

For each of the height 21b and the weight 21c, the entered height L and the weight are displayed. For example, the calculated value of the height L1 is displayed in the length 21d from the head to the cervical spine, and the calculated value of the lateral position W1 is displayed in the lateral position 21f of the cervical spine. The calculated value of the height L2 is displayed in the length 21 g from the head to the back, and the calculated value of the horizontal position W2 is displayed in the lateral position 21h of the back. The calculated value of the height L3 is displayed in the length 21j from the head to the waist, and the calculated value of the horizontal position W3 is displayed in the lateral position 21k of the waist.

The calculated value of the height L4 is displayed in the length 21 m from the head to the buttocks, and the calculated value of the horizontal position W4 (0 as an example) is displayed in the lateral position 21p of the buttocks. The calculated value of the height L5 is displayed in the length 21q from the head to the knee. For example, 0 is displayed in the length 21s from the head to the heel.

As described above, by displaying the size of each part of the body of the user M on the screen 21, the user M can grasp the details of the size of the body. The size calculation display unit 15 generates a silhouette image showing the height L, heights L1 to L5, and horizontal positions W1 to W6 of the user M shown in FIG. 3, and displays this silhouette image together with the screen 21. You may. In this case, the size of each part of the user M can be displayed in an easy-to-understand manner.

The body shape pattern determination unit 16 determines, for example, the body shape of the user M from the positions of each part of the body acquired by the body position acquisition unit 14, and displays the determined body shape. Further, the body shape pattern determination unit 16 may determine the body shape of the user M from the silhouette image generated by the size calculation display unit 15.

5 (a) to 5 (f) show examples (A type to F type) of the body shape pattern to be determined. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 5 (a) to 5 (f), the A type is a W line type body shape, and the curvatures of the back M2, the waist M3, and the buttocks M4 are equal to or larger than a predetermined value. Shows body shape. The B type is an S-line type body shape, and indicates a body shape in which the back M2 and the buttocks M4 protrude from the waist M3, but the curvatures of the back M2, the waist M3, and the buttocks M4 are not equal to or more than a predetermined value.

The C type is a body shape of a back protruding type, and indicates a body shape in which the back M2 protrudes from the buttocks M4. The D type is a hip type body shape, and shows a body shape in which the buttocks M4 protrudes from the back M2. The E type is a flat type body shape, and indicates a body shape in which the curvature of the back M2, the curvature of the waist M3, and the curvature of the buttocks M4 are less than a predetermined value. The F type is a round back type, and shows a body shape in which the waist M3 protrudes from the back M2 and the buttocks M4.

For example, the body shape pattern determination unit 16 may determine which type of A type to F type the body of the user M is, and display the determination result on the screen 21. The type of the body shape pattern determined by the body shape pattern determination unit 16 is not limited to the above-mentioned A type to F type, and can be appropriately changed.

The content data calculation unit 17 calculates the content data of the mattress and displays the content data. As shown in FIG. 6, for example, the content data calculation unit 17 calculates the content data of the mattress from the position of each part of the body acquired by the body position acquisition unit 14, and displays the content data as the screen 22.

For example, the content data calculation unit 17 may calculate the content data of the mattress from the silhouette image generated by the size calculation display unit 15. Further, the content data calculation unit 17 may calculate the content data of the mattress from the body shape pattern determined by the body shape pattern determination unit 16. In this case, it becomes possible to automatically select a mattress suitable for the body shape of the user M.

As an example, the screen 22 includes a mattress schematic diagram 22b schematically showing a side cross section of the mattress, a pad insertion necessity table 22c, and a part type table 22d. However, the layout of this screen 22 is an example and can be changed as appropriate. Schematic diagram of a mattress In FIG. 22b, for example, a mattress used by a user is schematically displayed. In the example of FIG. 6, the side cross section of the mattress divided into 18 regions A from the head side to the leg side is schematically displayed.

In the pad insertion necessity table 22c, the necessity of inserting the pad is displayed for each area A. FIG. 6 shows an example in which "○" is attached to the area A that requires insertion and "○" is not attached to the area A that does not need to be inserted. The pad refers to a pad laid under the mattress body, and the mattress can be raised by inserting the pad. In the parts type table 22d, the types of parts used for the area A of the mattress are displayed. As for the type of parts, for example, any one of a fit part, a hard hard part, and a soft soft part is displayed as "fit", "hard", or "soft".

As described above, the content data calculation unit 17 displays the content data of the mattress as the screen 22, so that the user M can grasp the mattress suitable for himself / herself at a glance. However, the details of the content data of the mattress displayed on the screen 22 are not limited to the example of FIG. 6, and can be changed as appropriate.

Next, an example of the process of the bedding proposal method when the bedding is a mattress will be described with reference to FIG. 7. The steps shown in FIG. 7 are merely examples, and are not limited to these steps. First, for example, an application is started on the information terminal 2 and the height and weight of the user M are input on the screen of the application (step S1).

Next, as shown in FIG. 2, the standing user M is photographed from the side (step S2). At this time, the height line may appear. Further, the image acquisition unit 12 acquires an image of the body of the user M, and for example, the mark display unit 13 displays a plurality of marks K together with the image of the body on the screen of the information terminal 2. After that, the user M or the proposer of the bedding moves the mark K on the image to position the mark K in each part of the body (for example, the cervical spine M1, the back M2, the waist M3, the buttocks M4, the back of the knee M5 and the heel M6). ) Is marked (step S3).

Then, the body position acquisition unit 14 acquires the position of each part of the body of the user M from the input height and the position on the marked image, and the size calculation display unit 15 calculates the size of the position. For example, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the size calculation display unit 15 calculates the respective values of the heights L1 to L5 and the horizontal positions W1 to W6. Then, the size calculation display unit 15 displays the respective values of height L, weight, height L1 to L5, and horizontal positions W1 to W6 on each item of the screen 21.

Further, the body shape pattern determination unit 16 determines the body shape pattern from the position of each part of the body acquired by the body position acquisition unit 14 (step S4). As illustrated in FIGS. 5 (a) to 5 (f), the body shape pattern determination unit 16 includes the cervical spine M1, the back M2, the waist M3, the buttocks M4, the back of the knee M5, and the body position acquisition unit 14. One of A type to F type is selected and displayed from the position of the heel M6.

After that, for example, the content data of the mattress is displayed and selected (step S5). Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, the content data calculation unit 17 displays the content data of the mattress as the screen 22. For example, looking at the screen 22, the proposer proposes a mattress suitable for the body of the user M, and the user M listens to this proposal and selects and decides the mattress.

After the user M decides the mattress, the proposer prepares the mattress, the user M sleeps on the mattress, and the proposer takes a picture of the sleeping posture of the user M on the information terminal 2 (step S6). When the user M sees and confirms the sleeping posture obtained by this photographing, for example, the user M purchases a mattress and completes a series of steps.

Next, an example in which the bedding is a pillow (an example of proposing a pillow) will be described. Since the example of the pillow described later overlaps with a part of the above-mentioned example of the mattress, the overlapping description will be omitted as appropriate. First, the height of the user M is input to the height input unit 11. As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the image acquisition unit 12 acquires a side image of the upper body of the user M and a front image of the upper body of the user M. When acquiring the front image of the user M, in order to appropriately reproduce the sideways sleeping, the image is taken with one arm M11 of the user M resting on the shoulder on the other arm M12 side.

Then, the mark display unit 13 displays the mark K (see FIG. 2), and the body position acquisition unit 14 acquires the positions of the cervical spine M1, the back M2, and the occipital region M8 by moving the mark K. The size calculation display unit 15 displays the size of each part from the position of each part of the upper body of the user M acquired by the body position acquisition unit 14.

In the examples of FIGS. 8 and 9, the size calculation display unit 15 has a height L6 from the cervical vertebra M1 to the occipital region M8, a lateral position X1 of the occipital region M8, a lateral position X2 of the cervical vertebra M1, and a shoulder M9 (recreating sideways sleeping). The distance X3 from the ear to the ear M10 is calculated. The distance X3 corresponds to the shoulder width of the user M. The height L6, the horizontal position X1, the horizontal position X2, and the distance X3 are calculated from the ratio to the input height. Further, the size calculation display unit 15 may calculate at least one of the height L6, the horizontal position X1, the horizontal position X2, and the distance X3. Generally, the cervical spine M1 is recessed anterior to the back M2 and the occipital region M8.

As shown in FIGS. 8, 9 and 10, the size calculation display unit 15 displays the calculated height L6, horizontal position X1, horizontal position X2 and distance X3 on the screen 23, for example. Then, the body shape pattern determination unit 16 displays the height of the pillow when lying on its back, the height of the pillow when sleeping sideways, and the length of the cervical spine. The screen 23 includes a height 23b displayed by the size calculation display unit 15, a lateral position 23c of the occipital region, a lateral position 23d of the cervical spine, a height 23f of the occipital region with respect to the cervical spine, a shoulder width 23 g, and a lateral position 23h of the back. Further, the screen 23 includes a pillow height 23j when lying down, a pillow height 23k when lying sideways, and a cervical spine length 23m, which are determined by the body shape pattern determining unit 16.

The entered height is displayed in the height 23b. For example, the calculated lateral position X1 value is displayed at the lateral position 23c of the occipital region, the calculated lateral position X2 value is displayed at the lateral position 23d of the cervical spine, and the height 23f of the occipital region with respect to the cervical spine is displayed. Displays the calculated value of the height L6. The calculated value of the distance X3 is displayed in the shoulder width 23 g, and 0 is displayed in the lateral position 23h of the back, for example. In this case, the respective values of the lateral position X1 and the lateral position X2 indicate relative values when the lateral position 23h of the back is 0.

The pillow height 23j when lying on the back, the pillow height 23k when lying sideways, and the cervical spine length 23m are values determined by the body shape pattern determining unit 16. For example, the body shape pattern determination unit 16 calculates the difference between the lateral position X2 of the cervical spine M1 and the lateral position X1 of the occipital region M8. The body shape pattern determination unit 16 determines, for example, "high" when the difference is equal to or greater than the first threshold value, and determines "medium" when the difference is less than the first threshold value and equal to or greater than the second threshold value. , If the difference is less than the second threshold value, it is determined to be "low". Any of these "high", "medium" and "low" is displayed at the pillow height 23j when lying on his back. That is, the body shape pattern determination unit 16 determines that the height of the pillow increases as the difference between the lateral position X2 of the cervical spine M1 and the lateral position X1 of the occipital region M8 increases. The above-mentioned first threshold value, second threshold value, and the third threshold value, the fourth threshold value, and the fifth threshold value, which will be described later, are appropriately set threshold values and can be appropriately changed.

For example, the body shape pattern determination unit 16 determines that the value of the distance X3 from the shoulder M9 to the ear M10 is “high” when the value is equal to or greater than the third threshold value, and the value is less than the third threshold value and greater than or equal to the fourth threshold value. In some cases, it is determined to be "medium", and if the value is less than the fourth threshold value, it is determined to be "low". Any of these "high", "medium" and "low" is displayed at the pillow height 23k when lying sideways. That is, the body shape pattern determination unit 16 determines that the height of the pillow increases as the value of the distance X3 from the shoulder M9 to the ear M10 increases.

Further, for example, when the value of the height L6 from the cervical spine M1 to the occipital region M8 is equal to or higher than the fifth threshold value, the body shape pattern determination unit 16 determines that the height L6 is "long type", and the value of the height L6 is less than the fifth threshold value. If, it is determined to be a "normal type". Either "long type" or "normal type" is displayed on the cervical spine length of 23 m.

The content data calculation unit 17 calculates the content data of the pillow and displays the content data. The content data calculation unit 17 calculates the content data of the pillow from the positions of each part of the upper body acquired by the body position acquisition unit 14, as shown in FIGS. 11 (a) and 11 (b), and the content data. Is displayed on the screen 24.

As an example, the screen 24 displays a pillow table. The pillow is a pillow having a plurality of internal spaces in which contents such as cotton or pipe agent are stored, and the content data calculation unit 17 calculates the amount of the contents for each internal space and for each internal space. indicate. FIG. 11A shows a pillow 24b when the body shape pattern determination unit 16 determines that the pillow is a normal type, and FIG. 11B shows a pillow 24c when the body shape pattern determination unit 16 determines that the pillow type is a long type. Shows.

The long type pillow 24c has a longer vertical length of the internal space 24d to which the cervical spine hits, as compared with the normal type pillow 24b. The internal space 24d is a region located at the center of the pillows 24b and 24c in a plan view in the horizontal direction (horizontal direction) and on one side (lower side as an example) in the vertical direction (vertical direction).

The value of the amount of contents for each internal space displayed on the screen 24 corresponds to the difference between the lateral position X2 of the cervical spine M1 and the lateral position X1 of the occipital region M8, and the value of the distance X3. The content data calculation unit 17 increases the value of the internal space located at the center of the pillows 24b and 24c in the plan view in the plan view as the difference between the lateral position X2 and the lateral position X1 increases. That is, the content data calculation unit 17 calculates and displays the amount of the content so that the larger the difference (constriction of the cervical spine) between the lateral position X2 and the lateral position X1, the higher the height in the center in the lateral direction.

The content data calculation unit 17 increases the value of the internal space located on both ends in the lateral direction of the pillows 24b and 24c in a plan view as the value of the distance X3 increases. That is, the content data calculation unit 17 calculates and displays the amount of the content so that the larger the value (shoulder width) of the distance X3, the higher the height on both ends in the lateral direction.

Next, an example of the process of the bedding proposal method when the bedding is a pillow will be described with reference to FIG. 12. The steps shown in FIG. 12 are merely examples, and are not limited to these steps. First, for example, an application is started on the information terminal 2 and the height of the user M is input on the screen of the application (step T1).

Next, as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the upper body of the user M is photographed from the side and from the front (step T2). Then, the image acquisition unit 12 acquires a side image and a front image of the upper body of the user M, and for example, marks the mark K displayed by the mark display unit 13 in accordance with the positions of the cervical spine M1, the back M2, and the occipital region M8. (Step T3). Then, the mark K displayed by the mark display unit 13 is marked by aligning it with the positions of the shoulder M9 and the ear M10 (step T4).

Then, the body position acquisition unit 14 acquires the position of each part of the upper body of the user M from the input height and the position on the marked image, and the size calculation display unit 15 calculates the size of the position. For example, the size calculation display unit 15 calculates the respective values of the height L6, the horizontal positions X1 and X2, and the distance X3.

The size calculation display unit 15 displays the respective values of height L, horizontal position X1, X2, height L6, and distance X3 on each item of the screen 23. Then, the body shape pattern determination unit 16 determines each of the pillow height 23j when lying on its back, the pillow height 23k when lying sideways, and the cervical spine length 23m, and displays the determination results on the screen 23.

After that, for example, the content data of the pillow is displayed and selected (step T5). Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 11 (a) and 11 (b), the content data calculation unit 17 displays a pillow 24b or a pillow 24c insert table on the screen 24. For example, looking at the screen 24, the proposer proposes a pillow suitable for the body of the user M, and the user M listens to this proposal and selects and decides the pillow.

After the user M decides the pillow, the proposer prepares the pillow according to the table displayed on the screen 24, the user M sleeps on the pillow, and the proposer is the user M on the information terminal 2. Take a picture of the sleeping posture (step T6). When the user M sees and confirms the sleeping posture obtained by this photographing, for example, the user M purchases a pillow and completes a series of steps.

Subsequently, the action and effect obtained from the bedding proposal system 1 and the bedding proposal method according to the present embodiment will be described in detail. As illustrated in FIG. 3, in the bedding proposal system 1 and the bedding proposal method according to the present embodiment, the height L of the user M is input in the height input unit 11, and the shooting unit (camera of the information terminal 2 or the like) is input. ) Photographs the body of user M. Then, the body position acquisition unit 14 has the input height L and each part of the body from the body of the photographed user M (for example, cervical spine M1, back M2, waist M3, buttocks M4, knee back M5 and heel M6). Get the position. Since the height L is a numerical value that is likely to be known by the user M himself / herself, the user M can easily input the numerical value of his / her own height L.

Therefore, the position of each part of the body of the user M can be easily measured based on the input height L. Further, since the position of each part of the body is acquired using the input height L, it is possible to accurately acquire the position of each part based on the height L. That is, since the positions of the cervical spine M1 and the back M2 are acquired with respect to the height L, the positions of each part can be acquired regardless of the imaging environment and imaging conditions. As a result, the position of each part of the body can be acquired more accurately.

Further, the content data calculation unit 17 calculates the content data of the bedding from the acquired positions of each part of the body, and the content data of the bedding is displayed. Therefore, the user M can grasp the content of the bedding suitable for himself only by looking at the content data on the image. Therefore, it is possible to sufficiently propose the bedding suitable for the user M to the user M of the bedding.

The bedding proposal system 1 may include a size calculation display unit 15 that calculates the size of each part from the position of each part of the body acquired by the body position acquisition unit 14 and displays the size. In this case, since the size calculation display unit 15 displays the size of each part of the body, the user M can grasp the details of each part of the body by looking at the screen.

As shown in FIG. 2, the bedding proposal system 1 includes a mark display unit 13 that displays a movable mark K on the image together with an image of the body taken by the photographing unit, and the body position acquisition unit 14 includes a body position acquisition unit 14. The position of each part may be acquired based on the position of the mark K moved on the image. In this case, the position of the mark K can be moved on the image to specify the position of each part of the body. Therefore, it is possible to acquire the position of each part more accurately.

The bedding proposal system 1 may include a body shape pattern determination unit 16 that determines the body shape of the user M from the positions of each part of the body acquired by the body position acquisition unit 14. In this case, the body shape pattern determination unit 16 determines the body shape of the user M from the position of each part of the body. Therefore, the user M can grasp which body shape pattern his / her body shape is.

As shown in FIG. 6, the bedding may be a mattress having a plurality of regions A into which the pads are inserted, and the content data calculation unit 17 calculates the necessity of inserting the pads for each region A. It may be displayed for each area A together with. In this case, the necessity of inserting the pad into the mattress is displayed for each area A of the mattress. Therefore, not only the user M but also the bedding proposer can grasp the necessity of inserting the pad, so that a more appropriate mattress can be proposed.

The content data calculation unit 17 may display the parts type table 22d in which the types of parts used in the area A of the mattress are displayed. In this case, since the type of the part used for the area A of the mattress is displayed, for example, a soft part (“soft” as an example) or a hard part (“hard” as an example) used for the area A of the mattress can be displayed. Therefore, for example, in a pattern order mattress, the arrangement of "soft", "hard", and "fit" can be changed, so that a mattress more suitable for the user can be proposed.

As shown in FIGS. 11 (a) and 11 (b), the bedding may be a pillow having a plurality of internal spaces in which the contents are accommodated, and the content data calculation unit 17 may perform the amount of the contents. May be calculated for each internal space and displayed for each internal space. In this case, the amount of contents in each internal space of the pillow is displayed for each pillow contents. Therefore, not only the user M but also the bedding proposer can grasp the amount of the contents for each internal space, so that a more appropriate pillow proposal can be made.
