[Step S1: Determine whether or not the start of the line-of-sight rehabilitation process has been ordered]
The control unit 21 executes the start notification unit 212 in cooperation with the storage unit 22, the communication unit 23, the display unit 24, and the input unit 25, and determines whether or not the start of the line-of-sight rehabilitation process is instructed (step S1). ). If the start is instructed, the control unit 21 shifts the process to step S2. If the start is not instructed, the control unit 21 shifts the process to step S1. By determining whether or not the start of the line-of-sight rehabilitation process is instructed, the device 2 can start the line-of-sight rehabilitation process when the start of the line-of-sight rehabilitation process is instructed.

The method for determining whether or not the control unit 21 is instructed to start the line-of-sight rehabilitation process is not particularly limited, and the control unit 21 receives a predetermined input instructing the start of the line-of-sight rehabilitation process via the input unit 25. The line-of-sight rehabilitation process is performed by various methods of the prior art, such as a method of determining whether or not the person has been damaged and / or a method of determining whether or not information for instructing the start of the line-of-sight rehabilitation process has been received via the communication unit 23. It can be determined whether or not the start of is instructed.

Although not an essential aspect, it is preferable that the start notification unit 212 notifies the user that the line-of-sight rehabilitation has been started via the display unit 24. By notifying the user that the rehabilitation has started, the apparatus 2 can notify the number of times that the state outside the predetermined range is switched to the state within the predetermined range after notifying the start of the line-of-sight rehabilitation process.

The method of notifying the user that the rehabilitation has started via the display unit 24 is not particularly limited, and for example, a method of displaying an image notifying the start of the rehabilitation or displaying a character string notifying the start of the rehabilitation. A method of displaying a symbol for notifying the start of rehabilitation, a method of playing a voice notifying the start of rehabilitation, and / or a method of combining two or more of these methods.

When the number of changes is stored in the storage unit 22, the control unit 21 further executes the counting unit 214 in cooperation with the storage unit 22 when the user is notified that the line-of-sight rehabilitation has started. , It is preferable to set the number of changes to 0. By setting the number of changes to 0, the control unit 21 can notify the number of times that the state outside the predetermined range is switched to the state within the predetermined range after notifying the start of the line-of-sight rehabilitation process.

When the rehabilitation start time is stored in the storage unit 22, when the user is notified that the line-of-sight rehabilitation has started, the control unit 21 sets the rehabilitation start time stored in the storage unit 22 as the current time. It is preferable to update. As a result, the device 2 can perform notification based on the number of changes from the time when the start is notified until the predetermined time elapses.

[Step S2: Display the line-of-sight target image]
The control unit 21 executes the first display control unit 211A in cooperation with the storage unit 22 and the display unit 24, acquires an image associated with the image type “line-of-sight target image” from the image table 221 and acquires the image. The line-of-sight target image is displayed on the display unit 24 (step S2). The control unit 21 shifts the process to step S3. By displaying the line-of-sight target image on the display unit 24, the user can perform line-of-sight rehabilitation to gaze at the line-of-sight target image.

Although not an essential aspect, the control unit 21 cooperates with the storage unit 22 and the display unit 24 to acquire an image associated with the image type "background image" from the image table 221 and display the acquired background image. It is preferable to display it on the unit 24. By displaying the background image on the display unit 24 by the control unit 21, the user can gaze at the display unit 24 using the background image as a mark. Therefore, the user can more effectively perform eye-gaze rehabilitation. Displaying the background image can also have the effect of relaxing the user and increasing the motivation of the user for eye-gaze rehabilitation.

Although not an essential aspect, the first display control unit 221A may be configured so that the acquired line-of-sight target image can be moved and displayed on the display unit 24. By configuring the acquired line-of-sight target image so that it can be moved and displayed on the display unit 24, the user (patient) can perform line-of-sight rehabilitation in which the gaze at the moving target is continued for a predetermined time or longer. Since the object to be stared at moves, the tiredness of the line-of-sight rehabilitation when the patient continues the line-of-sight rehabilitation is reduced. Therefore, the patient may be more motivated to perform gaze rehabilitation and may continue to perform gaze rehabilitation. With ongoing gaze rehabilitation, patients with ocular motility disorders may be able to reduce gaze difficulties. Therefore, the device 2 can improve the quality of life of the patient by moving and displaying the acquired line-of-sight target image on the display unit 24.

[Step S3: Receive line-of-sight information]
The control unit 21 executes the line-of-sight receiving unit 213 in cooperation with the storage unit 22 and the communication unit 23, and receives the line-of-sight information from the line-of-sight sensor 3 (step S3). The control unit 21 shifts the process to step S4. When the control unit 21 receives the line-of-sight information, the device 2 can determine whether or not the line-of-sight of the user is within a predetermined range from the display range of the line-of-sight target image.

Although not an essential aspect, the control unit 21 further cooperates with the storage unit 22 and the display unit 24 to acquire an image associated with the image type “line-of-sight position image” from the image table 221 and obtain the line-of-sight position. The line-of-sight position image indicating the above may be displayed on the display unit 24. By displaying the line-of-sight position image showing the position of the line-of-sight, the control unit 21 can easily grasp the positional relationship between the user's line-of-sight and the line-of-sight target image. Therefore, the user can more effectively perform eye-gaze rehabilitation.

[Step S4: Determining whether or not the condition for notification of the number of times is satisfied]
The control unit 21 executes the number-of-times notification unit 215 in cooperation with the storage unit 22 and the display unit 24, and determines whether or not the condition relating to the number-of-times notification is satisfied (step S4). When the condition regarding the number of times notification is satisfied, the control unit 21 gives a notification based on the number of changes via the display unit 24, shifts the process to step S1, and repeats steps S1 to S9. If the condition for notifying the number of times is not satisfied, the control unit 21 shifts the process to step S5.

By determining whether or not the control unit 21 satisfies the condition regarding the number of times notification and performing the notification based on the number of changes, the user moves the line of sight from the state where the line of sight target image is not seen and displays the line of sight target image for a predetermined time. It is possible to perform line-of-sight rehabilitation by repeating the above-mentioned staring motion. This repetition can further enhance the effect of gaze rehabilitation on gaze.

Since the user (patient) knows the number of times the patient has performed this repetition after being notified of the start of rehabilitation, the motivation for performing line-of-sight rehabilitation can be further increased, and line-of-sight rehabilitation can be continued. Continued gaze rehabilitation can reduce gaze difficulties and improve quality of life for patients.

The method for determining whether or not the control unit 21 satisfies the condition for the number of times notification is not particularly limited as long as it is a method for determining whether or not the condition for the number of times notification is satisfied. As a method of determining whether or not the condition regarding the number of times notification is satisfied, for example, a method of determining whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed from the time when the line-of-sight rehabilitation is started using the rehabilitation start time, and / or the number of changes. A method of determining whether or not a predetermined number of times has been reached, and the like can be mentioned.

The predetermined time is not particularly limited, and for example, a method of randomly determining a predetermined time, a time specified by the user, a time selected by the user from a plurality of predetermined times, and / or a time. The time determined by, etc. may be used.

The predetermined number of times is not particularly limited, and for example, by a method of randomly determining a predetermined number of times, a number of times specified by the user, a number of times selected by the user from a plurality of predetermined times, and / or a time. It may be a determined number of times, etc.

The device 2 is looking at the line-of-sight target image because the method of determining whether or not the condition regarding the number of times notification is satisfied is a method of determining whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed from the time when the line-of-sight rehabilitation is started. It is possible to calculate the number of times that the action of moving the line of sight from a non-existent state and staring at the line-of-sight target image for a predetermined time or longer is repeated within a predetermined time.

Since the method of determining whether or not the condition regarding the number of times notification is satisfied is the method of determining whether or not the number of changes has reached a predetermined number of times, the device 2 gazes from the time when the start of rehabilitation is notified. It is possible to measure the time required to complete the line-of-sight rehabilitation by moving the line of sight from a state in which the target image is not viewed and repeating the operation of staring at the target image for a predetermined time or longer a predetermined number of times.

The method in which the control unit 21 makes a notification based on the number of changes is not particularly limited as long as it is a method in which the notification is made based on the number of changes. There is a method of notifying by doing so.

When the rehabilitation start time is stored in the storage unit 22 and the method of determining whether or not the condition for notification of the number of times is satisfied is a method of determining whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed from the time when the line-of-sight rehabilitation is started. The notification based on the number of changes is preferably a notification regarding the number of changes from the time when the line-of-sight rehabilitation is started to the lapse of a predetermined time.

Since the notification based on the number of changes is the notification regarding the number of changes from the time when the line-of-sight rehabilitation is started to the time when the determined time elapses, the user (patient) moves the line-of-sight from the state where the line-of-sight target image is not viewed. It is possible to know the number of times that the motion of staring at the target image for a predetermined time or longer is repeated within a predetermined time.

By continuing the line-of-sight rehabilitation that repeats the movement, the patient can become proficient in the movement. Since the notification based on the number of changes is a notification regarding the number of changes from the time when the line-of-sight rehabilitation is started to the lapse of a fixed time, the patient can tell the degree of proficiency in the movement within the fixed time. It can be grasped by a clear index of the number of times that is repeated. As a result, the patient can further increase the motivation for the line-of-sight rehabilitation to repeat the movement, and can continue the line-of-sight rehabilitation. Continued gaze rehabilitation can reduce gaze difficulties and improve quality of life for patients.

When the rehabilitation start time is stored in the storage unit 22 and the method of determining whether or not the condition for notification of the number of times is satisfied is the method of determining whether or not the number of changes has reached a predetermined number of times, the notification based on the number of changes is made. Is preferably a notification based on the time from the time when the line-of-sight rehabilitation is started to the time when the number of changes reaches a predetermined number of times.

Since the notification based on the number of changes is the notification based on the time from the time when the line-of-sight rehabilitation is started to the time when the number of changes reaches a predetermined number of times, the user (patient) is notified from the time when the start of rehabilitation is notified. It is possible to know the time required to complete the line-of-sight rehabilitation in which the action of moving the line of sight from the state where the line-of-sight target image is not viewed and staring at the line-of-sight target image for a predetermined time or longer is repeated a predetermined number of times.

By continuing gaze rehabilitation in which the patient repeats the movement, the patient can become proficient in the movement. Since the notification based on the number of changes is the notification based on the time from the time when the number of changes is started to the time when the number of changes reaches a predetermined number of times, the patient can tell the degree of proficiency in the movement to start the line-of-sight rehabilitation. It can be grasped by a clear index of the time required from the notified time to repeating the operation a predetermined number of times. As a result, the patient can further increase the motivation for rehabilitation to repeat the movement, and can continue the line-of-sight rehabilitation. Continued gaze rehabilitation can reduce gaze difficulties and improve quality of life for patients.

Although it is not an essential aspect, when the system 1 includes the motion sensor 5, if the condition for the number of times notification is satisfied, the control unit 21 gives a notification based on the number of changes via the display unit 24, and the process is performed in step S11. It is preferable to move to. By shifting the process to step S11, it is possible to perform a motion rehabilitation process related to the movement of the patient's body realized by a series of processes from step S11 to step S19. The flow of the motion rehabilitation process will be described in detail later with reference to FIG.

It is determined whether or not the state within the predetermined range has been switched from the range (step S5). When the state is switched to the predetermined range, the control unit 21 shifts the process to step S6. If the state has not been switched to the predetermined range, the control unit 21 shifts the process to step S7. By determining whether or not the state has been switched to the predetermined range, the device 2 can determine whether or not the operation of moving the line of sight from the state of not looking at the line-of-sight target image and staring at the line-of-sight target image for a predetermined time or longer has been performed. ..

The predetermined range is not particularly limited as long as it is a range related to the display range of the line-of-sight target image. Examples of the predetermined range include a range related to a specific position such as the center of the line-of-sight target image, a range related to a rectangle including a display range of the line-of-sight target image, a range related to the outer periphery of the display range of the line-of-sight target image, and the like. The method for determining whether or not the state has been switched to the predetermined range is not particularly limited. As a method of determining whether or not the control unit 21 has switched to the predetermined range state, for example, it is determined that the control unit 21 has switched to the predetermined range state when the predetermined range state flag is OFF and the line of sight is within the predetermined range. However, in other cases, there is a method of determining that the state has not been switched to the predetermined range.
