Each functional element of the bedding proposal system 1 is implemented by loading an application of the bedding proposal system 1 into the processor or storage unit of the information terminal 2 and executing the application.

Each functional element of the bedding proposal system 1 may be executed by an application downloaded to the information terminal 2 . Alternatively, the bedding proposal system 1 may be a distributed processing system composed of multiple computers, a client-server system, or a cloud system. For example, the processor of the information terminal 2 operates the above-described communication control unit or output device according to the application, and reads data from and writes data to the storage unit. The data or database used for the processing of the bedding proposal system 1 is stored in the storage section of the information terminal 2 .

The information terminal 2 is, for example, a device capable of executing the functions of the bedding proposal system 1 . The information terminal 2 is, for example, a mobile terminal. A “portable terminal” indicates a portable terminal such as a mobile phone including a smart phone, a tablet, a camera, or a notebook computer. The information terminal 2 may be a terminal other than a mobile terminal, and may be a personal computer, for example.

For example, the bedding proposal system 1 includes, as functional components, a front silhouette display unit 11, a front image acquisition unit 12, a side silhouette display unit 13, a side image acquisition unit 14, a mark display unit 15, a body position It includes an acquisition unit 16 , a physical data calculation unit 17 , a determination unit 18 , a comment extraction unit 19 and a display unit 20 .

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , the display unit 20 displays an operation screen 21 for executing a front-view photographing function of the bedding proposal system 1 on the display 2 b of the information terminal 2 . The operation screen 21 displays, for example, an operation content 21b, a progress bar 21c, a shutter button 21d, a switching button 21f, and a message 21g.

For example, the operation content 21b indicates that the bedding proposal system 1 executes the front photographing function. The progress bar 21c displays the progress of a series of steps executed by the bedding proposal system 1. FIG. When the shutter button 21d is pressed, shooting is performed. For example, when the switching button 21f is pressed, switching between the front camera and the rear camera in the information terminal 2 is performed. The message 21g displays, for example, the stage of processing of the front photographing function to be executed by the bedding proposal system 1 (“step 1” in the example of FIG. 2) and the content of the processing.

The front silhouette display unit 11 displays a front silhouette E1 of the body on the display 2b. In this disclosure, "silhouette" indicates the outline of an object. "Silhouette" indicates, for example, an outline for prompting the user to adjust the size of the photographed image to a predetermined size. By adjusting the size of the captured image to match the size of the silhouette, it is possible to process the image with higher accuracy. "Front silhouette" indicates a silhouette imitating the front of a person. A "side silhouette" to be described later indicates a silhouette imitating the side of a person.

For example, the front silhouette display unit 11 displays the front silhouette E1 inside the frame S11 displayed on the display 2b. The frame S11 has, for example, a rectangular shape. As an example, the frame S11 and the front silhouette E1 are displayed between the message 21g and the shutter button 21d.

FIG. 3 is a diagram schematically showing a screen imaged by the camera function of the information terminal 2. As shown in FIG. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the front image acquiring unit 12 has a function of prompting the user to adjust the image M1 before acquiring the front image M1 of the user. For example, the front image acquisition unit 12 displays the front image adjustment unit 12b on the display 2b.

The front silhouette E1 and the photographed image M1 are displayed on the front image adjusting section 12b, and the front image adjusting section 12b can adjust the size of the image M1 with respect to the front silhouette E1. For example, when the user puts two fingers on the front image adjustment unit 12b and pinches the image M1 in and out, the image M1 is reduced and enlarged. The image M1 is pinched in and out so that the size of the image M1 matches the size of the front silhouette E1.

For example, the front image acquisition unit 12 displays a message 12c and an OK button 12d together with the front image adjustment unit 12b. As an example, the front image adjustment section 12b, the message 12c and the OK button 12d are arranged in this order. The message 12c is a message prompting the user to adjust the size of the image M1 to the size of the front silhouette E1. The OK button 12d is a button for confirming the size-adjusted image M1.

The bedding proposal system 1 according to the present embodiment has a function of allowing the user to determine the positions of each part of the body in the image M1 using the marks displayed by the mark display unit 15 . FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram for explaining the function. For example, the mark display unit 15 displays the marks K1 and K2 on the display 2b together with the image M1 whose size is adjusted with respect to the front silhouette E1. FIG. 4 and FIG. 7, which will be described later, show an example in which the marks (marks K1 to K5) are shaped like arrows. However, the shape of the mark may be any shape other than the arrow shape, and is not particularly limited.

The front image acquisition unit 12 displays on the display 2b the image M1 whose size has been adjusted to match the front silhouette E1. The mark display unit 15 displays, for example, a mark K1 indicating the position of the user's neck and a mark K2 indicating the position of the user's shoulder together with the image M1.

The mark K1 and the mark K2 can be moved with a finger on the display 2b. By aligning the position of the mark K1 with the position of the user's neck M3 with the finger and aligning the position of the mark K2 with the position of the user's shoulder M4 with the finger, the user's neck M3 and shoulders on the image M1 are displayed. The position of M4 is established.

The front image acquiring unit 12 displays, for example, an image M1 on which the marks K1 and K2 are displayed, a message 12f, and an OK button 12g on the display 2b. The message 12f aligns the mark K1 with the position of the user's neck M3 on the image M1 (for example, the constricted portion of the neck M3), and also aligns the position of the user's shoulder M4 on the image M1 (for example, the most protruding shoulder). This message urges the user to align the mark K2 with M4). The OK button 12g is a button for confirming the image M1 in which the positions of the marks K1 and K2 have been adjusted.

FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining the procedure for photographing the side of the user's body. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 5, the display unit 20 displays an operation screen 22 for executing a user's side photographing function by the bedding proposal system 1 on the display 2b. Like the operation screen 21, the operation screen 22 displays an operation content 22b, a progress bar 22c, a shutter button 21d, a switching button 21f, and a message 22g.

For example, the operation content 22b indicates that the bedding proposal system 1 executes the side photographing function. The progress bar 22c indicates that the progress of a series of steps executed by the bedding proposal system 1 has progressed since the progress bar 21c was displayed. The message 22g displays, for example, the stage of processing of the side photographing function to be executed by the bedding proposal system 1 (“step 2” in the example of FIG. 5) and the content of the processing.

The side silhouette display unit 13 displays a side silhouette E2 of the body on the display 2b. For example, the side silhouette display unit 13 displays the side silhouette E2 inside the frame S21 displayed on the display 2b. The shape and arrangement of the frame S21 are, for example, the same as the shape and arrangement of the frame S11 described above.

A side image of the user is matched with the side silhouette E2. However, it is more difficult to fit the side image of the user to the side silhouette E2 than to fit the front image of the user to the front silhouette E1. Therefore, when the front image of the user is combined with the front silhouette E1 and the shutter button 21d is pressed, the front image M1 is acquired immediately after that, whereas the side image of the user is combined with the side silhouette E2. Even if the shutter button 21d is pressed, the side image is not acquired for X seconds (X is a natural number).

That is, after X seconds have passed since the side image of the user is combined with the side silhouette E2, the side image is acquired. As an example, the value of X is three. In this way, the side image is captured after the shutter button 21d is pressed and a certain period of time has elapsed, so that the side image can be aligned with the side silhouette E2 with higher accuracy.

The message 22g indicates, for example, that the shutter button 21d will be pressed and the image will be captured after X seconds have elapsed. Note that the message 22g may include a warning that the camera should be aligned horizontally with the user's head before shooting. In this case, the accuracy of the captured side image of the user can be further improved.

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a photographed image M2 of the side of the user. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 6, the side image acquiring unit 14 has a function of prompting the user to adjust the image M2 before acquiring the side image M2 of the user. For example, the side image acquisition unit 14 displays the side image adjustment unit 14b on the display 2b.

The side silhouette E2 and the photographed image M2 are displayed on the side image adjustment unit 14b, and the size of the image M2 with respect to the side silhouette E2 can be adjusted in the side image adjustment unit 14b. For example, the user can reduce and enlarge the image M2 by pinching in and out the image M2, as in the case of the front image adjustment unit 12b. The image M2 is pinched in and out so that the size of the image M2 matches the size of the side silhouette E2.

The side image acquisition section 14 may display at least one of the eye position determination section 14c and the back of the head determination section 14d on the side silhouette E2. The eye position determination part 14c is a part for determining the position of the user's eyes on the image M2, and the back of the head determination part 14d determines the position of the back of the user's head (position of the top of the back of the head) on the image M2. It is a part for By providing at least one of the eye position determining section 14c and the occipital area determining section 14d, it is possible to further improve the accuracy of the position of each part of the user in the acquired image M2.

The side image acquisition unit 14 further displays a message 14f and an OK button 14g. As an example, the side image adjuster 14b, the message 14f and the OK button 14g are arranged in this order. The message 14f is a message prompting the user to adjust the size of the image M2 to the size of the side silhouette E2. The OK button 14g is a button for confirming the size-adjusted image M2.

As shown in FIG. 7, the mark display unit 15 displays a mark on the confirmed image M2, and the user determines the position of each part of the body in the image M2 based on the mark. For example, the mark display unit 15 displays the marks K3, K4, and K5 on the display 2b together with the image M2 whose size is adjusted with respect to the side silhouette E2.

The side image acquisition unit 14 displays on the display 2b the image M2 whose size has been adjusted to match the side silhouette E2. The mark display unit 15 displays, for example, a mark K3 indicating the position of the back of the user's head, a mark K4 indicating the position of the user's neck, and a mark K5 indicating the position of the user's back together with the image M2.

The position of the mark K3 is aligned with the position of the user's back M6 with the finger, the position of the mark K4 is aligned with the position of the user's neck M3 with the finger, and the position of the mark K5 is aligned with the position of the user's back M5 with the finger. The alignment establishes the positions of the user's back of the head, neck and back on the image M2.

The side image acquiring unit 14 displays, for example, an image M2 in which marks K3, K4, and K5 are displayed, a message 14h, and an OK button 14j on the display 2b. The message 14h aligns the mark K3 with the position of the back of the user's head M6 on the image M2 (for example, the most protruding part of the back of the head M6), and the position of the user's neck M3 on the image M2 (for example, the narrowest neck). The message prompts the user to align the mark K4 with the position of the user's back M5 (for example, the most protruding part of the back M5) on the image M2 as well as align the mark K4 with the position of the user's back M3. The OK button 14j is a button for confirming the image M2 in which the positions of the marks K3, K4, and K5 have been adjusted.

As shown in FIG. 1, the body position acquisition unit 16 obtains an image M1 of the front of the user in which the positions of the marks K1 and K2 have been adjusted, and an image M1 of the user's side in which the positions of the marks K3, K4, and K5 have been adjusted. After the image M2 is acquired, the position of the user's body is calculated from the image M1 and the image M2. For example, the body position acquisition unit 16 acquires the positions of the neck M3 and shoulders M4 in front of the user on the image M1 from the positions of the marks K1 and K2, and acquires the positions of the user's side faces from the positions of the marks K3, K4 and K5. , the positions of the back of the head M6, neck M3 and back M5 on the image M2 are obtained.

The body data calculation unit 17 obtains the shape data D1 of the shoulders of the user, the shape data D1 of the user's neck, and the positions of the neck and shoulders on the front and the positions of the back of the head, neck, and back on the sides obtained by the body position obtaining unit 16 . and the shape data D3 of the back of the user's head.

For example, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 7, the physical data calculation unit 17 calculates the horizontal length from the neck M3 to the shoulder M4 of the user in the image M1 as the shoulder shape data D1. The length in the horizontal direction from the user's back M5 to the neck M3 in M2 is calculated as neck shape data D2. For example, the body data calculator 17 calculates the horizontal length from the user's back M5 to the back of the head M6 as the shape data D3 of the back of the head.

As the shoulder shape data D1, the neck shape data D2, and the back of the head shape data D3, lengths of portions other than the above examples may be calculated. As described above, the body data calculator 17 calculates the neck shape data D2 of the user from the side image M2, and calculates the shoulder shape data D1 of the user from the front image M1.

The determination unit 18 determines the height of the bedding from the neck shape data D2. For example, the determination unit 18 determines that a high pillow is suitable when the neck shape data D2 is equal to or greater than a certain value, and determines that a low pillow is suitable when the neck shape data D2 is not equal to or greater than a certain value. do. As a specific example, the determination unit 18 determines that a high pillow is suitable when the neck shape data D2 is A1 (cm) or more, and the neck shape data D2 is A2 (cm) or more and A1 (cm) When the neck shape data D2 is less than A2 (cm), it is determined that a low pillow is suitable. A1 is a positive real number and A2 is a positive real number smaller than A1. As an example, the value of A1 is 8.0 and the value of A2 is 6.0. However, the values of A1 and A2 are not limited to the above examples.

The comment extraction unit 19 extracts comments to be displayed on the display 2b from comments pre-stored in the storage unit of the information terminal 2, for example. FIG. 8 is a comment table C showing an example of pre-stored comments. The information terminal 2 has, for example, a comment table C shown in FIG. remembered.

The comment extraction unit 19 extracts comments according to the shoulder shape data D1 and the neck shape data D2. In the present embodiment, the comment extraction unit 19 extracts comments according to the shoulder shape data D1, the neck shape data D2, and the back of the head shape data D3. For example, the determination unit 18 determines the shape data D1 of the shoulder, the shape data D2 of the neck, and the shape data D3 of the back of the head in three stages of high, medium, and low.

For example, the determination unit 18 determines that the shoulders are wide when the shoulder shape data D1 is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, and determines that the shoulders are narrow when the shoulder shape data D1 is not equal to or greater than the predetermined value. For example, the determining unit 18 determines that the neck is high when the neck shape data D2 is greater than or equal to a certain value, and determines that the neck is low when the neck shape data D2 is not greater than or equal to the certain value.

For example, the determination unit 18 determines that the back of the head is high when the shape data D3 of the back of the head is equal to or greater than a certain value, and determines that the back of the head is low when the shape data D3 of the back of the head is not equal to or above the certain value. "The neck (or the back of the head) is high (or low)" means that the neck (or the back of the head) is high (or low) from the bedding on which the user is supposed to lie. Further, it may be determined that “(the height of the neck or the back of the head is high)” when the distance in the horizontal direction from the back M5 in the side image M2 is long.

As an example, the determination unit 18 determines that the shoulders are wide when the shoulder shape data D1 is X1 (cm) or more, and when the shoulder shape data D1 is X2 (cm) or more and less than X1 (cm). When the shoulder shape data D1 is less than X2 (cm), it is determined that the shoulder is narrow. X1 is a positive real number and X2 is a positive real number smaller than X1. As an example, the value of X1 is 12.0 and the value of X2 is 9.3. However, the values of X1 and X2 are not limited to the above examples.

As an example, the determination unit 18 determines that the neck is high when the neck shape data D2 is Y1 (cm) or more, and when the neck shape data D2 is Y2 (cm) or more and less than Y1 (cm). When the neck shape data D2 is less than Y2 (cm), it is determined that the neck is low. Y1 is a positive real number and Y2 is a positive real number smaller than Y1. As an example, the value of Y1 is 8.0 and the value of Y2 is 6.0. However, the values of Y1 and Y2 are not limited to the above examples.

As an example, the determining unit 18 determines that the occipital region is high when the occipital region shape data D3 is Z1 (cm) or more, and when the occipital region shape data D3 is Z2 (cm) or more and less than Z1 (cm). When the shape data D3 of the occipital region is less than Z2 (cm), it is determined that the occipital region is low. Z1 is a positive real number and Z2 is a positive real number smaller than Z1.
