JP2023064197A - Information transmission system with main/sub communicator, and program for information transmission system with main/sub communicator - Google Patents

Abstract

To provide a system and program for one or more first users and one or more second users to transmit information through communication means.SOLUTION: In a system, a first user operates a main communicator, and a second user operates a main/sub communicator. The sub communicator operated by the second user includes multiple units of physical information output means corresponding to multiple modalities and modality selection means which selects one of the modalities, and outputs physical information through the physical information output means of the one modality selected by the selection means. The main communicator operated by the first user includes modality change means which detects the modality selected by the modality selection means and forcibly changes the modality. The modality change means changes a modality selected by the second user to another modality multiple times, thereby alerting the second user "gently" and "modestly".SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 16

Description

The present invention relates to information transmission technology, and more particularly to technology applied to remote education and conferences.

In addition to the aforementioned remote education and teleconferencing, the present invention is also applied to remote diagnosis and remote medical care, remote monitoring of the elderly, remote warning when a disaster is predicted, and remote safety confirmation after a disaster.
And it is an improved invention of Japanese Patent Application No. 2021-100547 [Patent Document 4]. In the following description, Japanese Patent Application No. 2021-100547 [Patent Document 4] is abbreviated as "prior application".

As in the prior application, the present invention is a system in which one or more first users and one or more second users communicate information via communication means, wherein the first user serves as the main communicator and the second user serves as the main communicator. Operate primary and secondary communicators. In the following detailed description, tables, and drawings, the primary communicator and secondary communicator of the second user are abbreviated as "primary/secondary communicator" as in the name of the invention.

<Modality>
The information communication technology term "modality" is described. "Modality" is often used but has no formal definition. As for how to use it, there are descriptions in papers, etc. that it mainly distinguishes between light, sound [voice], and mechanical vibration, which are sensed by the visual, auditory, and tactile senses of the sensory organs, and that these are measurement targets with different modalities. be. Smell, taste, and sixth sense are also considered to be extensions of modalities, but there are still few papers describing that smell, taste, and sixth sense are modalities because the measurement technology has not yet been established.

Here, light, sound [voice], and mechanical vibration are a large category M1, and minor species categorized in M1 are M2; Such a state is called the "selected state" M3 of the submodality M2, respectively. Specific examples thereof are shown in Table 1.

Hereinafter, the modality in the present specification includes the so-called modality M1, its subordinate concept submodality M2, and the selection state M3 in the submodality M2. have meaning.

<Object of the present invention>
The present invention is a system for facilitating one-or-more-one-to-one information transmission, including one-to-one, which is carried out remotely, and is particularly aimed at eliminating the drawbacks of conventional remote information transmission, which will be described later. .

<Priority search>
Using J-PLATPAT and Google, there is a prior patent of an information transmission system in which the keywords of the present invention, "selection" and "[forced] change" are claimed, as well as descriptions of "promotion" and "demotion". We researched public web documents about communication systems. (Survey date is June 2, 2021)

In addition, since the output of the physical information of the present invention is not different from the output of the incoming signal, the prior patent of the information transmission system with "incoming call" in the claim and the publication on the information transmission system with the description of "incoming call" I researched web documentation. (Survey date is September 30, 2021)

As a result of research, technical documents similar to the "modality change" of the present invention, such as easy-to-recognize ringtones and lights that apply multimedia and media mix regarding incoming calls on mobile phones, etc., and unusual sounds and lights in emergencies. was also found. (Patent Documents 5 to 8)

However, I could not find any prior art relating to the invention itself, nor any prior patents or public web information containing statements suggestive of the subject matter of the invention.
On the other hand, the inventors have invented unique communication devices called "lighting signs" and recognize that they can be effectively used in the practice of the present invention, as they are published prior art. , depending on the case, it will be a usage relationship. (Patent Documents 1 to 3)
Patent document 4 is the above-mentioned prior application.

Non-Patent Document 1 is an example of recent remote information transmission technology. Non-Patent Documents 2 to 4 are cited in the following description.

Apart from the uniqueness of the present invention, problems in general "remote" meetings and "remote" classes will be described. The problem simply arises from the fact that the person you are communicating with is not close enough to make contact. This is a matter of course. For example, in a "remote" meeting, if a participant suddenly goes to the bathroom and doesn't come back, or in a "remote" class, if you think that the participant has disappeared from the screen, you may find yourself going on a date with her before you know it. , not going back to class.

In situations like the one mentioned above, the chairman of the meeting may go to the bathroom to arrest the potential perpetrator, or the teacher at the podium may , Since it is something that can grasp the flirting situation of a potential date couple, there was no way that the couple could escape from class.

In this way, the problems in "remote" meetings and "remote" classes are not limited to the above-mentioned problems, but many situations, so solutions must be taken for each individual situation. Here, a situation with a problem that can be solved by the present invention will be exemplified based on an actual accident.

<Case file 1: Rapid increase in students who do not attend class>
See Figure 1(a). A teacher [first user: U1] was concerned about Keiko [second user: U2] who was absent or late often. I called him to see if he caught a cold and he was fine. In short, Keiko is a habitual latecomer who sleeps over. As a teacher, I can't leave it alone, but as a teacher, I hesitate to wake up every day. This is because he is accused of stalking and sued by Keiko.

Now that distance learning has become the norm these days, Keiko's remote screen is, of course, pitch black in the morning. This teacher was helpless and at a loss. (Fig. 1(b)) On the other hand, Keiko became a complete late-night type with a satisfying morning sleep. I was now overwhelmed by the life of a woman at night, and had come to rely on drugs for mental stability.

<Case book 2: Teacher stress that can not be strictly warned about throwing chalk>
A certain teacher is called a hot-blooded choker, and when he falls asleep in class (Fig. 3(a)), the slider rotation and knuckle non-rotating high-speed choke attack the dozing students (Fig. 3(b)). Blood-stained chalk was regarded as a symbol of the passionate "blood" of student love.

Now that distance learning has become the norm, the hot-blooded choker used to gnash his teeth at the students sleeping soundly behind the remote screen (Fig. 4). Finally, the hot-blooded choker became a neurotic and became one of the truant teachers.

<Case file 3: The stress of not starting a teleconference and having nothing to do>
Mr. B was looking forward to the remote reunion with Mr. C after a long absence. However, even at 12:00, when the scheduled start time of the "sashi" conference for just the two of them had arrived, permission to enter the remote conference host C was not received at all (Fig. 6(a)). Mr. B, who had run out of numbness, called Mr. C's mobile phone several dozen times and sent the same number of SMS (Short Messages). A few days later, Mr. C was found stabbed to death in his room.

The facts are as follows. Mr. B, who has run out of numbness, goes to Mr. C's house. There, there was Mr. C, who was sound asleep and did not move even when chimes and noises were heard (Fig. 6(b)). Mr. C wakes up in the middle of the night because he forgot to lock the key, and Mr. B with his eyes sitting in the picture is reflected in Mr. C's eyes. Mr. C was astonished by its existence. Mr. C, who wakes up and yells incomprehensible otaku words. When Mr. B shook off the muddler thrown by him, he unfortunately struck C.'s carotid artery and died in a sea of blood, blood, blood. Mr. B, who was suspected of murder, is currently busy with his attorney fees.

These case files are not fictitious. Similar incidents/accidents are increasing in "spread" along with the corona disaster (Refer to the 2020 National Police Agency National Incidents/Attempt Accident Database, 2020 Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Survey on School Truancy/Delinquency, etc.), Urgent measures were desired. In particular, unprecedented smart countermeasures using ICT were desired.

<Supplement>
According to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology's "FY2018 Personnel Administration Status Survey of Public School Teachers," the number of people taking sick leave due to mental illness has remained at around 5,000 per year since 2007, and this has suddenly increased due to the corona crisis. It approached 10,000 (Non-Patent Document 2).

Also, crime is increasing rapidly in Corona. Incidents such as so-called maddening acquaintances being killed and injured, which was never possible before, occur frequently. This is proof that many people are depressed into an extraordinary mental state due to excessive stress (Non-Patent Document 3).

As shown in <Case File 1: A sharp increase in the number of students who do not attend class>, remote students were notified of the start of class, so that even those who overslept woke up and started preparing for class. The challenge is to present unprecedented smart countermeasures using ICT.

As shown in <Case Book 2: Stress of Teachers Who Can't Be Severely Warned by Throwing Chalk>, they overcame criticism of power harassment by calling attention to students even in remote classes, not turning a blind eye to behavior that led to delinquency. , We must build a mechanism that enables teachers to have the courage to remotely implement strict cautions. The challenge is to present an unprecedented smart plan using ICT that is effective in building that mechanism.

As shown in <Case Book 3: The stress of not starting a remote meeting and having no action taken>, when a remote meeting fails to contact the parties involved in the meeting, including the host, a communication route other than the meeting tool is used to call attention, Alternatively, a system should be constructed to enable emergency contact. This is not impossible with smartphones and mobile phones, but the challenge is to present unprecedented smart measures using ICT.

In addition, there are also issues that are different in nature from the smart countermeasures that have never been presented using ICT that thoroughly calls attention to the above. It is a task to call the attention of the second user gently, slowly, gradually, and gently, rather than blindly and severely.

The second user is also human. Blindly intense and severe warnings can have the opposite effect, such as going into a frenzy. In addition, there may be a case where the second user is an elderly person or a disabled person and cannot respond as quickly as the first user. At that time, I would like to call attention gently, gradually, gradually, gently.

The above-mentioned ``Unprecedented smart measures using ICT to thoroughly call attention'' and the later ``I want to call attention gently, gradually, gradually, gently, rather than strictly calling attention''. Overall, this proposal aims to present a system that can arrange such various alerts on a case-by-case basis and to arrange human-friendly alerts.

The present invention (claim 1) is a system in which one or more first users and one or more second users communicate information via communication means, and the first user operates a main communicator. The second user operates the main communicator and also operates the sub-communicator, and the sub-communicator operated by the second user is one or more physical information output means corresponding to a plurality of modalities. and modality selection means for selecting at least one of a plurality of modalities as an output, and physical information is output by said physical information output means corresponding to the modality selected by said selection means as an output by a second user. hand,
The main communicator comprises modality changing means for detecting the modality selected by the modality selecting means and forcibly changing the modality, the operation of the modality changing means is executed a plurality of times, and the modality selected by the second user is selected. In the system, the modality is changed to a plurality of other modalities, and the physical information output means corresponding to the changed modalities outputs the physical information of the plurality of other modalities.

Here, the modality changing means may be provided in the master system.
That is, (claim 3), the master system connected to either the main communicator or the sub-communicator via communication means detects the modality selected by the modality selection means and forcibly changes the modality. modality changing means is provided, the operation of the modality changing means is executed a plurality of times, the modality selected by the second user is changed to a plurality of other modalities, and the physical information output means corresponding to the changed modalities It is a system in which physical information of multiple other modalities is output.

In addition, it is generally well known that when students teach each other with students as associate teachers in education [classes], the educational effect increases. In order to deal with this, we have created a system that allows the demotion and promotion of the first user and the second user as follows.

That is, according to the present invention (claim 2), the main communicator promotes one second user to a first user, or demotes one first user to a second user. It is a system that also has changing means.

Similarly, according to the present invention (claim 4), the master system promotes one second user to a first user or demotes one first user to a second user. It is a system that also has changing means.

Here, the significance of the sub communicator's existence (the reason why the second user also operates the sub communicator) includes, for example, the enhancement of information communication with the first user and the enhancement of information communication with other second users. , operating the Secondary Communicator for any and all communications, including but not limited to;

In other words, the second user may operate the sub communicator to enhance information transmission with the first user and to enhance information transmission with other second users, or use it for communication with other information transmission destinations. be. The secondary communicator is used for any purpose to improve the convenience of the life of the second user without being limited to its purpose.

The main communicator or the master system is the main communicator or the master system, and the latter master system communicates with either the main communicator or the sub-communicator via means of communication. It is connected.
A connection via such communication means directly intervenes in the sub-communicator, or indirectly intervenes in the sub-communicator via the main communicator to forcibly change the modality.

In particular, the modality change of the present invention has the feature that the operation is performed multiple times. It is a system that can thoroughly call the attention of the second user by executing it multiple times, or can call the attention of the second user gently, slowly, gradually, and gently, instead of blindly intensely and severely.

Further, according to the present invention, the main/secondary communicator operated by the second user is any of the following aspects [1] and [2], and the main communicator and the sub-communicator have the same physical information output means, the same The modality selection means may be shared (Claim 5).
That is, [1] the main/secondary communicators are integrated, and the main/secondary communicators are equipped with an information medium to which two pieces of unique information that are linked to the two paths of the communication means are attached, A mode in which information can be transmitted through two paths, or [2] the main/secondary communicators are integrated, and two registered accounts that can be connected to the two paths of the communication means are registered in the main/secondary communicators. It is a mode in which information can be transmitted through two routes.

Furthermore, regarding the "modality" of the present invention (claim 6), one of the plurality of modalities consists of a plurality of submodalities belonging to the modality, and the modality selection means selects a plurality of submodalities belonging to one modality. The selection includes selecting one from among a plurality of submodalities, and the selection of the modality selection means includes selecting one from among a plurality of submodalities selected. A change of means includes a change between a plurality of submodalities belonging to one modality, and a change of the modality changing means includes changing from one submodality selection state to another selection state. Also, the change of the modality changing means includes selecting one of a plurality of modalities when the second user has not selected a modality.

The program of the present invention will be described later.

<Changing modalities and alerting humans>
First, "modality change" and calling attention to humans in the present invention will be described. In human society, the red and blue lights of police cars, flashing lights at construction sites, and the sounds [voices] that call attention in human society are the beeping sound of police cars and ambulances, and the gate has been closed. Examples include the ticking sound of time. These lights/sounds [voices] are abnormal lights/sounds [voices], that is, combinations of red and blue that are not seen in everyday life, blinking flashes, beeping sounds that are not heard in everyday life. the other. I can't think of a mechanical vibration to call attention in human society. It's not appropriate, but if I had to say it, it would be an act of vibrating intimidation to drive away perverts by vibrating their bodies on a crowded train just like this bastard.

There is also a psychological theory that the poverty extortion vibration is a compensatory act of an unpopular person who is not accepted by others. In other words, in order to alert others, it is necessary to use modalities such as light, sound [voice], and mechanical vibration, which are unusual, unexpected, modalities [M1], submodalities [M2], and submodality selection states [ M3] to others is effective. Examples of this are the combination of colors of police cars, ambulances, and gates, flashing flashes, beeps, and bangs.

(See FIG. 11) The present invention has focused on the fact that modality changes, especially unexpected modality changes, are effective in alerting. I thought that it would be extremely effective if the modalities were suddenly changed to extraordinary, unexpected modalities [M1], submodalities [M2], and submodality selection states [M3]. That is, let us assume that the second user operates the sub-communicator [CoS] to set his preferred modality, for example, a cute woman's huff voice, to the sub-modality selection state. In the system of the present invention, the main communicator [CoM] (Claim 1) or the master system [SS] (Claim 3) unconsciously transforms the cute woman's huff voice into, for example, a fat man's silly voice. forced to change. This is an effective reminder.

In FIG. 11, the student of the second user operates the secondary communicator [CoS] and is healed by selecting the dim, dull, mild light of the light modality ("Before" in Fig. 11). situation). However, the teacher, who is the first user, should not do such a simple healing, and operate the system to work earnestly on learning. Then, the main communicator [CoM] (Claim 1) or the master system [SS] (Claim 3) changes the second user's vague, dull and mild light into a triple alert and sends a second Users are surprised. A highly effective alert is accomplished ("After" state in FIG. 11).

Here, the triple alert is high-intensity lightning-like light, loud sound [voice], low-frequency sound reminiscent of cracks in the ground, and low-frequency mechanical vibration sound reminiscent of ground destruction, as shown in Fig. 11. It is a warning by the three major modality all-out attacks. These three major [all] modality all-out attacks also appear in <Case Book 2> to solve problems.

<Case book 1: Solving the problem of the rapid increase in students who do not attend class>
See Figure 2. A certain teacher [first user: U1] was going to apply the alerting function of the system of the present invention, which has already been introduced in the teacher's school, to Keiko [second user: U2], who frequently misses or is late. It's already time to start class. As usual, even at this time, Keiko's remote class multi-monitor sub-screen was pitch black. Therefore, the teacher instructed the second user of Keiko's distance learning multi-monitor display potion "A21" to click "Yes" to force modality change.

Then, from Keiko's sloppy sub-communicator, two pieces of physical information, a waking up voice and a flashing light, were output at a timing Keiko didn't expect, with an unbelievably high tension. Keiko turns on the power of the main communicator where the distance learning is carried out. The teacher confirmed it in front of the distance learning multi-monitor while grinning and gloating. I was going to start today's class. In this way, a critical situation in which the number of students like Keiko who do not attend classes was suddenly averted. Keiko never saw the bottom of the abyss that greeted her as a woman in the night, and she led a wonderful life, which will be described later.
The resolution of the issue of <Case File 1> is complete.

<Case book 2: Teacher stress that can not be strictly warned about throwing chalk>
A choker teacher was troubled by troubles at home where he didn't go to school. Now, the daily clenching of my teeth has crossed the breaking point, and the moment I pick up my smartphone, wondering if I've made a bomb threat to some government agency, I hear, "I'm the principal. The test run of the new class system has been completed. I want you to be.” It was a request from the principal who took care of everything. The hot-blooded choker turned to the system monitor with a pale face that could not be called hot-blooded.

See FIG. That bastard is sleeping after all. Even with the new class system, the students are still useless. Looking at the new screen on the monitor, the blue-and-white choker felt annoyed. Right before the explosion warning switch turned on in my brain, oh, what is this? [All-modality all-out attack that can't be done with a smartphone] [Glittering/wonderful production, arranged with sensitivity] caught Choker's attention. It was an advertisement for the new system of the present invention (see Figure 5).

<Explanation>
FIG. 5 is an advertisement for the system of the present invention. The main communicator connects the teacher's personal computer and the student's personal computer by means of communication means for remote learning, and transmits learning information between the main communicators. Students may use smartphones as their primary communicator.

On the other hand, in the example of FIG. 5, the secondary communicator is a penlight type IoT device, but it is not limited to this, and may be a smart phone or a device in which the primary/secondary communicators are integrated with a dual SIM. SIM will be described later.

Immediately, the teacher put the trial switch to sleep soundly. Then, the three major modalities of Dokkan, Glitter, and Buruburu attack the sound sleep. Wow, I was so surprised, I jumped up. I took out my textbook and started solving example problems. Hmm, you're willing to study. Then the sun shone through the blue and white days of the choker. Choker used to feel a sense of fulfillment in the days of blood-smeared remote training.

As a result of this, Choker became a user of the new system alerts until he was called Dokkan, Gira Gira, Buruburu Artist, and his personality became brighter. Even if the three major modalities are randomly combined, it is unlikely that they will become an effective awareness for the students. Choker, who is rich in sensibilities, has devised exquisite settings for forced modality changes one after another for each student and each place of awareness, and has accumulated achievements to become a professional in alerting the attention of the new system.
The resolution of the issue of <Case File 2> is complete.

<Case file 3: The stress of not starting a teleconference and having nothing to do>
See FIG. Mr B is accused of murder. His main business is a later career officer. A carrier is a wireless network provider for mobile phones and smartphones. The underlying cause of the accidental carotid artery hit is a thorough discussion with Mr. C, the now deceased base station construction manager, about countermeasures for the slow progress of the expansion of base stations. It was the teleconference. Despite the fact that the super-busy executive gave up valuable time, the construction manager fell asleep from fatigue. It's too bold to take away the reasoning of Officer B. Mr. B's BMP at that time was 190. Officer B, who has been suspended from execution thanks to a super-high-paid lawyer, hears rumors about a certain system. Yes, it is the alert system for case files 1 and 2.

Call the system planner. Mr. B moved quickly. Officer B became a murder suspect due to the stress of not being able to start a teleconference and having nothing to do. In order to eliminate the stress of having nothing to do, I came up with the idea of doing a remote conference support secondary line service on the wireless line that my company is expanding.

A system should be constructed to call attention or to make an emergency contact through a communication route other than the conference tool when contact information for conference participants including the host is unknown during a teleconference. This is not impossible by using mega-carrier lines for smartphones and mobile phones, but it would be an idea for late-starting carriers to use their lines exclusively for such emergency calls and offer them at a low cost.

A few years later, the remote conference support secondary line service became popular, and this latecomer carrier, which was notorious for having few base stations and being difficult to connect, regained its popularity. It is very popular because it is a dedicated secondary line that connects to people who cannot be connected. In that season, the company's own team also won the championship with a "connecting" consecutive hit batting order that led to hits. In front of the grave of Mr. C, the person in charge of the base station who unfortunately lost his life, Mr. B, with tears in his eyes, reported that he was acquitted before the expiration of the suspended sentence, thanks to the business results.
The resolution of the issue of <Case File 3> is complete.

<What is a "teacher" in the remote era?>
What is a teacher? He speaks pompously from a position 20 centimeters above the podium. From the point of view of the students, the content is nothing but silly puns. Many teachers are like that. Demoshika teachers are still rampant. It's a very difficult job to do if you're a teacher or you can only be a teacher. Then the corona era dawned and distance learning began.

There is no pulpit 20 centimeters high. Students mute no matter how pompous they speak. Yes, the curtain has finally opened on the true nature of teachers. It is symbolic that there is no teaching platform 20 centimeters high, and education without barriers between teachers and students is sought. The present invention also takes that into account.

In other words, teachers who cannot use computers or who do not understand the meaning of apps will be asked to become students in current ICT-oriented classes. Then, the students who are full of new game ideas playing Netoge all night are asked to take the place of the teacher and teach. No, I don't have a teaching platform, so let's talk about new game scenarios and programming ideas on the web as virtual teachers, and dreams of starting a venture and commercializing it.

Here, I will show you one answer to the aforementioned question, what is a teacher? The ability to force modality change in the remote information transfer of the present invention is the teacher. You may think so, but if you consider the distance learning between teachers and students as a place for remote information transmission, the superior authority of the first [superior] user over the second user of the information transmission field is enforced. It is only possible to make modality changes, and that is all that is necessary and sufficient.

Therefore, according to the present invention, the main communicator or master system is provided with user rank change means for promoting a second user to a first user or demoting a first user to a second user. , and made it possible to promote the second user to the first user, which is the superior right of the first [superior] user to the second user. In other words, it was made possible to conduct remote classes with students as associate teachers.

The reason why the "master system" was dared to appear as the main subject of the promotion and demotion here is to avoid system instability due to the main communicator losing its superiority in the system due to the demotion of the first user, and to avoid system instability.・This is to avoid a situation in which system control becomes impossible due to the promotion or demotion of the second user, resulting in instability.

Of course, the main communicator may be promoted or demoted in consideration of such instability. And the master system is the subject of information transmission other than the first and second users, and there are cases where its existence is successful. This will be described later with an example of watching over the elderly in the description of effects.

<The purpose of life of a “teacher” in the remote age: story after the first day of the casebook>
Oversleeper Keiko became able to wake up every morning with the system of the present invention and discovered herself as a rikejo. The impetus for this was the wise decision of the teacher who always cared about Keiko. One afternoon, Keiko asked her teacher to teach her about her favorite caterpillar.

Keiko was delighted. Keiko loves gypsy moth larvae. If you look closely, the face like a smiling face is very cute. The next day, Keiko, who became the first user, spoke passionately about her knowledge to the students and to the teachers who cared about her as an associate teacher. After that, Keiko received a Ph.D. in insect virology and is still devoting herself to research at the university as a professor.

<The purpose of life of a “teacher” in the remote era: Story after the second day of the case file>
A hot-blooded choker who has heard rumors about Keiko from another school should let the students share their knowledge of the uselessness. I thought. That's right, the reason Dame Dame was sleeping all the time was because Choker's class was full of things she knew. Technically speaking, Dame Dame was gifted with the ability to "visually" comprehend complex formulas that could be applied to cryptography in mathematics.

So, with a quick glance at the DNA sequence, they could find a crisper, a palindrome of the bases AGTC. CRISPR is CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat). Twenty years later, Damame has become a university professor like Keiko, and is still conducting genetic analysis of coronaviruses.

In this way, the system of the present invention, which can set "quasi-teachers", has a great long-term educational effect, and has the potential to make a great contribution to laying the groundwork for young people who will lead the new age.

<System configuration of the present invention>
(Refer to FIG. 10) How the main communicator [CoM], the sub-communicator [CoS], and the master system [SS] of the present invention are constructed as communication means will be described. Communication means are broadly classified into Internet lines and wireless lines. The former may also partially construct a wireless line, and the latter may also partially go through the Internet line. 10(a)(b), FIG. 10(C), and FIG. 10(d) are the main communicator [CoM] and the sub-communicator [CoM], respectively. CoS] and each terminal of the master system [SS] connect to an arbitrary upper system.

FIG. 10(a) shows a mode in which the <a1> main communicator [CoM] connects to an arbitrary communication destination on the Internet via the communication means [N], and <a2> the main communicator [CoM] performs wireless communication.

Wi-Fi (registered trademark) communication and Bluetooth (registered trademark) communication are also suitable for the wireless communication and wireless lines described above.

<Cradle>
When the secondary communicator of the present invention is to be commercialized, a configuration using a cradle that is often always connected to a power supply is preferable. It is also preferable to have a configuration in which the cradle is connected to the main communicator via USB and power is also supplied via USB.

Then, a light-weight IoT glowing signboard [Sb] that can be detachably attached to Cr, or a light-weight IoT penlight that is detachable to Cr [Sp ] as the main body of the portable portable secondary communicator.

In other words, Cr and this portable sub-communicator main body have the same structure as the well-known structure in which a mobile phone or smartphone (smartphone) main body is charged with Cr.

What is characteristic here is that the light source [Light] assigned to Cr, the sound source [Speaker] assigned to Cr, and the mechanical vibration source [Vibrator] assigned to Cr are the modalities [light, sound, mechanical It is possible to output physical information according to vibration].

In addition, the user can choose the main body of the portable secondary communicator that can carry the lightweight IoT glowing signboard [Sb] that can be attached to Cr or the lightweight IoT penlight [Sp] that can be attached to Cr. A light source [Light], a sound source [Speaker], and a mechanical vibration source [Vibrator] for outputting physical information according to the modality [light, sound, mechanical vibration] may be provided.

By adopting the configuration of the sub-communicator using a cradle in this way, it can be used from a fixed cradle, from a light-weight IoT glowing signboard [Sb] that is fully charged and carried, or from a light-weight IoT penlight [Sp]. Also, physical information is output according to the modality [light, sound, mechanical vibration] initially selected by the second user. Then, if the modality forced change of the present invention is performed by the first user, the second user will have unexpected physical information output not only from the main body that the second user is carrying, but also from the cradle that is fixed at a distance. Therefore, it is effective because it provides an extremely effective alert.

The sign Cr written in the drawing is the cradle, Sb is a lightweight IoT glowing sign that can be attached to Cr, Sp is a lightweight IoT penlight that can be attached to Cr, and Lgt-C is a light source attached to Cr. Light], the sound source [Speaker] that Spk-C is placed on Cr, and the mechanical vibration source [Vibrator] that Vib-C is placed on Cr. And Lgt-S is the light source placed at Sb or Sp, Spk-S is the sound source placed at Sb or Sp, and Vib-S is the mechanical vibration source placed at Sb or Sp. Since it is complicated to write these, writing is omitted except for a part.

FIG. 7 shows the significance of the second user using the sub-communicator in remote conferences and remote classes. If you have a sub-communicator and can select a modality, you will be able to find yourself easily in a remote conference or class, and you will be able to share your feelings with your colleagues who are attending the remote conference or class at the same time. In Figure 7(a), a woman is making it easier to find herself by selecting a distinctive modality, and in Figure 7(b), a man is excited by synchronizing his feelings with his peers who are attending a teleconference/class at the same time. is shown.

Figure 8 is a reference photo, which shows an experiment in which a lighting signboard IoT device is adopted as a secondary communicator, and a prototype secondary communicator is used in remote conferences and classes in a self-portrait test.

Fig. 9 is also a reference photo. It is a cradle-powered sub-communicator that uses a lighting signboard IoT device similar to that shown in Fig. 8. This lighting signboard IoT device is experimentally powered by a cradle to charge the built-in lithium-ion battery and emit light. It is a photograph of an experiment testing self-portraits similar to situations used in teleconferences and classes.

In addition, various application techniques of internally illuminated IoT devices including a glowing signboard IoT device and an IoT penlight are shown in Patent Documents 1 to 3 of the inventors of the present invention. A combined configuration in which this applied technique is applied to the present invention is also suitable and effective, but the description is omitted.

<Specific example of system configuration>
The system configuration described with reference to FIG. 10 will be described again. In the configuration of the system of the present invention, the main communicator and the sub-communicator may be personal computers, mobile phones/smartphones [smartphones], and any of the aforementioned IoT devices. Furthermore, it may be a communicator that is an information transmission device (communication terminal) that is not classified into these.

There are 27 cases of 3×3×3, ie, 3 cases each for the main communicator and the sub-communicator of the first and second users even in the three categories shown as examples.

Although the case where the primary communicator of the first user is an IoT device is not excluded, this case is omitted, and the main communicator of the second user is omitted with a dotted line to simplify the case. Table 2 shows six possible system configurations. exemplified.

Table 2

In cases A and A', the secondary communicator is an IoT device, in cases B and B', the secondary communicator is a mobile phone or smartphone [smartphone], and in cases C and C', the secondary communicator is a personal computer. A main communicator is any information transmission device (communication terminal) indicated by a dotted line.

In Table 2, the overall system image column shows (a) the case where the main communicator changes the modality of the physical information, and (b) the case where the master system changes the modality of the physical information.

<Integration of main/secondary communicators>
The main communicator and sub-communicator may be integrated and share the same physical information output means and the same modality selection means. (See Table 3)
That is, [1] the main/secondary communicators are integrated, and the main/secondary communicators are equipped with information media to which two pieces of unique information that link the two paths of the communication means are added; or [2] the primary/secondary communicators are integrated, and the primary/secondary communicators are registered with two registered accounts that can be connected to two paths of the communication means. Therefore, information can be transmitted through two routes.

Table 3

In Table 3, cases A and A' are IoT devices with integrated primary/secondary communicators, and cases B and B' are mobile phones and smartphones [smartphones] with integrated primary/secondary communicators. . Cases C and C' in Table 3 are personal computers in which the main/secondary communicators are integrated.

In Cases A and A' and Cases B and B', the integrated primary/secondary communicator is equipped with two SIM cards (SIM1/SIM2) denoted SIM, and the SIM cards have an IMSI ( A unique number called International Mobile Subscriber Identity) is assigned, and by linking this with a telephone number, independent communication between the main line and the sub line can be made.

In recent years, eSIM, which is a digitized physical entity called a SIM card, has also become popular, and integration of primary/secondary communicators using eSIM is also suitable.

In Cases C and C', the personal computer has two accounts, typically in the second user's personal computer, one is connected to the Internet mainly by cable such as optical fiber, and the other is wireless [wireless]. Both are connected to the Internet by registering their own accounts with the operator of the Internet connection system.

By registering two unique accounts, a single computer can be connected to the Internet via two different communication lines (means of communication), and information can be transmitted. That is, the primary/secondary communicators are integrated.

<Multiple modality changes>
Multiple modality changes, which is a feature of the present invention over the prior application, will be described.
FIG. 12 shows an example in which modality changes are performed a plurality of times, in which five modality changes are performed stepwise at preset time intervals [T].

<“Gradual” Modality Change>
"Gradually" is a description to be contrasted with "slowly", which will be described later, and can also be rephrased as "rapidly" or "suddenly."calmly".

Also, "stepwise" may be stepwise. In any case, the modality change is "stepwise" at times t1, t2, t3, t4, and t5 in FIG. "Done.

Here, "Q" is the Quotation data table, which is the modality change reference data quoted by the program described later.
That is, "Q" is information data for changing the previous modality to "another modality" at each modality change of multiple times, and the change to "another modality" is executed sequentially at each of the multiple times. Shown on the computer.

OP is the operation [Operation] of the computer, Q1 is the data table of "other modalities" that the computer refers to in the operation [Op1] at time t1, and Q2 is the data table of "other modalities" that the computer refers to in the operation [Op2] at time t2. In the "other modality" data table, Q3 is the "other modality" data table referenced by the computer in operation [Op3] at time t3, and Q4 is the data table in "other modality" referenced by the computer in operation [Op4] at time t4. "Other modalities" data table.

Time t1, t2, t3... ti... is the time of the i-th execution operation [Opi] of the modality changing means, and Op1, Op2, Op3... Opi... is the i-th execution operation of the modality changing means. (Operation) is performed, and each time, the data table is referenced to change the modality to Q1, Q2, Q3 . . . Qi .

Table 4 is the Q-data table of the five multiple operations [operations] illustrated in FIG. 12, and the examples in Table 4 and FIG. The more you go, the more eye-catching, louder, and larger the modality becomes.
Q5, which is the rightmost column in any selection state [M3], is the all-modality all-out attack of the last resort in this example. This last resort is the same for other examples.

Also in Table 4, the original setting of the second user is indicated by "Q0". This "Q0" is an example in which the second user has not set any physical information output in a blank field. Of course, there are cases where some setting is made instead.

Table 4

As indicated by the arrows in Table 4, each modality change interval continues the physical information output by the immediately preceding modality. Then, at the next modality change time, the physical information of the next modality is output "gradually", "rapidly", or "suddenly".

The preset time interval [T], which is the change interval, is represented by t(i+1)-t(i), where i is a natural number, and is not necessarily constant and may be changed. For example, if [T] is exponentially decreased as i increases, new modalities are changed one after another at short time intervals to output physical information that the second user has never felt before. , the probability that the alert to the second user will be recognized will increase.

In multiple modality changes, at each change time t1, t2, t3, ti, a "stepwise" modality change is made, and "stepwise" is otherwise discontinuous in time. is the meaning of
Since the change is temporally discontinuous, the physical information of the different modality is output suddenly without interruption, and the second user is highly surprised and startled.

By changing the modality a plurality of times in this manner, physical information output unexpected for the second user is realized, and the effect of alerting the second user is outstanding.
On the other hand, there is a "gentle" modality change, which is described below.

<Data table "Q">
The data table "Q" is set by the first user according to the other party to whom information is to be transmitted, attributes of the second user, attributes of the region, and conditions such as weather, earthquakes, and other emergencies.

Here, the attributes of the other party and the attributes of the region are, so to speak, static attributes that do not change significantly over time, and can be set [preset] in advance based on personal information and regional information.

On the other hand, situations such as weather, earthquakes, and other emergencies change over time, so to speak, as dynamic attributes, and the first user comprehends the situation changes at that time and rewrites the data table "Q" sequentially.

The data table "Q" can be variously arranged by selecting modalities M1, M2, and M3, and can be matched to the attributes of the destination, the attributes of the region, and the conditions such as weather, earthquake occurrence, and other emergencies. .
This versatile arrangement will be explained in the next modality extension.

<Modality extension>
Modalities are exemplified in Table 1, but various modalities can be expanded. Extension means extension from the example in Table 1. To explain this, we replace it with an algebraic expression. (Refer to Figure 13-14)

FIG. 13(b) is obtained by algebraically replacing FIG. 13(a) according to Table 1 with letters.
FIG. 13(c) is an explanation of characters.

FIG. 14 is an extension of (a) selection state [M3] of modality, and FIG. 14(b) is an algebraic explanation of extension of submodality [M2].

Again, in the modalities of the present invention, one of a plurality of modalities [M1] consists of a plurality of submodalities [M2] belonging to the modality, and the modality changing means changes the modality [M1]. Changing between submodalities [M2] of one submodality [M2], and changing from the selected state [M3] of one submodality [M2] to another selected state [M3] are included in modality change.
Also, changing the modality changing means includes selecting one of the modalities [M1][M2][M3] when the second user has not selected any modality.

For example, if it is an optical modality, the magnitude of luminance in the selection state [M3] of the luminance submodality can be increased in an analog manner. This is indicated by m1, m2, m2, . . . in FIG. 14(a). Similarly, you can create many shades [Spectrum] in an analog way. This is indicated by s1, s1, s2, and so on. Similarly, the period [frecency] can also be increased in an analog manner. This is indicated by f1, f2, f3, . . .

The extension of this analog submodality selection state [M3] is the same for sound and vibration modalities.

On the other hand, the submodalities [M2] are not limited to the exemplified magnitudes, spectra and frequencies. For example, for light, there are various characteristic light patterns such as sunlight, moonlight, searchlight, and lightning. For sound, there are various melody patterns. It is a characteristic vibration pattern such as a low-frequency sound that causes ground failure, an ultra-low-frequency sound that reminds of ground destruction, and these patterns may be selected.

In FIG. 14(b), the selection states of submodalities of light patterns are x1, x2, x3, the selection states of sound patterns are y1, y2, y3, and the selection states of vibration patterns are z1, z2. ,z3.

In this way, the modality can be freely expanded according to the purpose of use, so that the modality can be changed in various ways, and the variation of calling attention to the second user can also be arranged in extremely various ways.

<Multiple modality changes with extended modality>
FIG. 15 shows an example in which five modalities are changed step by step with a preset time interval [T] according to the expanded data table "Q" indicated by the algebraic modality. is set modality selection state [M3].

Execution of "step-by-step" modality change by data table Q1, Q2...Q5 with steps S1, S2, S3, S4 written in the figure and modality extensions indicated by algebraic characters, explained in the program and flow charts described below. An image is shown in FIG.
FIG. 22 is a partially enlarged view of FIG. 21 around time t1 to t3.

<"Gentle" modality change>
FIG. 23 shows an image of the "gradual" modality change in execution of the "gradual" modality change from time t1 to t2 in FIG. 21, and FIG.

That is, the "gentle" modality change is, for example, the modality change performed many times at minute time intervals Δt in the time interval of time t1→t2.

FIG. 24 is an image diagram explaining a data table to be referred to when modalities are changed many times at minute time intervals Δt.

The minimum value of Δt, which is the minute time interval, is determined by computer performance, but it may be increased to the extent that the user can perceive it as "gentle", which is preferable because it reduces the burden on the computer.

A normal computer system can change modalities hundreds of times per second, and the output of physical information corresponding to the changes is to the extent that humans perceive it as "gentle," "calm," and "gradual." It is good if it can be output.

Table 5 is the Q-data table for the "gradual" modality change, as opposed to the Q-data table referenced for the "gradual" modality change in Table 4.

Table 5

<Combination of "Gradual" and "Gentle">
FIG. 26 is an appeal diagram obtained by adding the combined effect of the "gradual" modality change and the "gradual" modality change to FIG. 11, and FIG. showed that.

FIG. 27 is a partial enlargement of the expectation degree graph. In this way, it is expected that the alert to the second user will increase step by step, or that the alert will be perceived gently and gently. It can be designed according to the actual situation of the user.

Table 6 is a look-up table for an example combination of "gradual" and "gentle" illustrated in FIGS. , the Q data table referenced in the execution of the "gentle" modality change from t3 to just before t4.

Table 6

The "gradual" modality change and the "gentle" modality change described above mean that the modality is repeatedly changed with a difference between the preset time interval [T] and the minute control time interval [Δt].

Therefore, there is no essential difference between the two, and the essence of the invention is that the modality is changed multiple times.

By changing the time interval between the previous and next modality changes by mixing long, short, and minute, it is possible to produce more diverse physical information output, which fits the diverse circumstances of the recipient, the second user. A warning will be implemented.

<Program>
The core of the invention is the modality change part, and the core of the program is also that part. Such a program is shown in the flow chart of FIG.

That is, (Claim 7), a program for modality change of the system of the present invention, in which the computer of the main communicator executes the following steps [1] [2] [3] [4] and causing the computer of the main communicator to function as the modality changing means,
[1] allowing the secondary communicator to interrupt the operation of the communicator;
[2] detecting a modality setting of the modality selection means;
[3] changing the set modality by interrupting the modality selection means;
[4] A step of causing the physical information output means to output physical information with the changed modality.

Also (claim 8), a program for modality change of the system of the present invention, which causes the computer of the master system to execute the same steps [1] [2] [3] [4] as above, A program that causes a computer to function as the modality changing means

These are shown as steps [S1] [S2] [S2] [S4] in the flow chart of FIG.

Another feature of the present invention is the first and second user and demotion and promotion parts, and the program is also related to it. ).

That is, (Claim 9), a program for demoting and promoting the first and second users of the system of the present invention, which causes the computer of the main communicator to execute the following steps [1] and [2], a program that causes the computer of the data to function as means for changing the user rank,
[1] setting a user to be promoted or demoted;
[2] This is the step of changing the attribute of the user.

In addition, (claim 10), a program for first and second users and demotion and promotion of the system of the present invention, which is also installed in the computer of the master system, steps [91] and [92] in the flow chart of FIG. is executed.

<Flowchart>
The present invention preferably incorporates "viewing" the second user's information, sensing it, and "notifying" the sensing results to the first user's primary communicator or master system. The effect will be described later. A functional flow chart of the system for "gradual" modality change, including the operation of "viewing" such information, detecting it, and "notifying" the primary communicator or master system of the first user, is shown in FIG. , as shown in FIG.

Also, the system flow chart for "gradual" modality change is shown in FIG.

<Flow of “gradual” modality change>
As shown in FIG. 19, the "gradual" modality change system flow starts with step "1" of determining whether or not there is information to be transmitted from the first user to the second user. If "Yes", the process moves to "A" in the upper diagram of FIG.

On the other hand, the step of taking over point "C" toward the end of program execution in FIG.
The step of "3", detecting the stop of the output of the physical information in the above 2 and determining the stop, is determined based on the detection from the stop detecting means of the output of the physical information of "31".

and in "4", the step of notifying the main communicator or master system of stopping the output of physical information;
This is done by means of notifying the primary communicator or master system to stop outputting the "41" physical information, completing the flow.

The upper diagram of FIG. 18, including flow points "A" and "B", is the operational flow of modality change described above, in which "S1" allows the secondary communicator to interrupt the operation of the communicator, " S2" interrupts the modality selection means to change the set modality, "S3" interrupts the modality selection means to change the set modality, and "S4" changes to the physical information output means. This is a step of outputting physical information with the selected modality.

FIG. 20 contains the flow to flow point "C" towards the end of program execution, "5" to start measuring the output duration of physical information by one "other modality", "6". is the step of detecting that the information to be transmitted to the second user has been browsed, and this is performed based on the detection by the information browsing detection means of "61".

Then, "7" is the step of continuously outputting the output of physical information by one "other modality" [without stopping], Determining exceeding preset duration of 81".
Here, the preset time interval [T] is preset and stored in "81".

<Flow of “gentle” modality change>
The lower diagram of FIG. 18, including program points "A1" and "B1", forms part of the operational flow for the "gentle" modality change.

In the lower diagram of FIG. 18, "S1" is a step similar to "stepwise" allowing the secondary communicator to interrupt the operation of the communicator. The detecting step, “S31”, is the step of quoting the modality at time ti+1, and “S41” is the preparation step of sending the quoting data to the flow after B1.

In the flow shown in the lower diagram of FIG. 18, the modality at time ti is quoted from the next modality at time ti+1 after a time interval, and the quoted data is sent to the flow after B1.

In the "gradual" modality change, the manipulation and output of each modality change in the minute time interval Δt is performed in the flow of FIG.

That is, in FIG. 25, the step "50" starts measuring the elapsed time from time ti,
"51" is the step of initializing j [setting the initial value to "1"], "52" is the step of generating and storing reference data for each Δt from the difference between Qi and Qi+1, and "53" is the transition state. Qi data storage area.

And "54" is the step of pickUP the j-th Qi(ti+jΔt), that is, the step of taking it out of "53" and executing it, and "55" is the step of incrementing j [increase the j value by one]. .

The change operation of modality change is performed when generating reference data for each Δt from the difference between Qi and Qi+1 of "52", and each generated Qi(ti+Δt), Qi(ti+2Δt ), Qi(ti+3Δt), . The difference is smaller than the individual data difference of the change.

Therefore, compared to "gradual" modality change, attention is aroused by a gentle, gentle, and gradually changing output.

Then, the output by the "gentle" modality change picks up the j-th Qi(ti+jΔt) of "54", and physical information is output when this is executed.

<Supplement about "transition state">
The "transition state" in the description and drawings of <"gradual" modality change> in this specification means the transition from the time ti of one "gradual" modality conversion to the time ti of the next "gradual" modality conversion. It is the time to +1.

Also, the Q-data table referenced by one "stepped" modality transformation at time ti is Qi, and the Q-data table Qi+1 of the next "stepped" modality transformation at time ti+1. • Let Qj be the Q-data table referenced in the "stepwise" modality transformation at any time tj.

Then, every time ti+Δt, ti+2Δt, ti+3Δt, .. ti+jΔt, . Δt] times of modality change is called Q-data table of transition state, Qi(ti+Δt), Qi(ti+2Δt), Qi(ti+3Δt), … Qi(ti+ 1-Δt).
The data of the transition state Q-data table is generated at step "52" in the flow chart of FIG. 25, and is temporarily stored in the storage area of "53" in FIG.

Table 7 summarizes the effect [progress from the prior art] for each application of the present application.
The master system is the entity that transmits information other than the first and second users, and there are cases where its existence is successful.

As described in Table 7, the effects of the present invention are [a][b][c][c]. In other words, [a] in distance learning [distance education], attention/confirmation can be done even on a mobile phone, but by skillfully using "gradual" modality change and "gentle" modality change, intense attention and gentle [gentle] confirmation are possible. can.

[b] In the remote conference [web conference], if the host falls asleep or has gone out, an emergency call can be made by mobile phone. By skillfully using , it is possible to give intense attention or gentle [gentle] confirmation.

[c] In remote care, the second user remotely calls and watches over the elderly or disabled people, and as a regular check for calling and monitoring, modality change and "gentle" modality change. By skillfully using , it is possible to make gentle [gentle] calls and confirmations arranged for the elderly and disabled.

Table 7

In particular, it is possible to arrange a so-called media mix call that fits the individual circumstances of the elderly, and it is possible to produce a call based on the choreography of a favorite song or dance, so it is suitable as a call that is friendly to the elderly.

Here, it is preferable that the browsing by the second user makes a response to a call, a normal reaction of an elderly person or the like for the purpose of monitoring, recognition of an evacuation instruction, and judgment of safety. To do this, we added browsing detection to the flowchart above. A known technology may be used for detection of browsing or the like.

[d] Emergency evacuation in the event of a disaster and confirmation of safety after a disaster are similar. You can make gentle [gentle] calls and confirmations arranged according to the user's circumstances.

Here too, it is preferable to incorporate the above-described detection of browsing by the second user into the system, and it is preferable to incorporate a flow for notifying the first user of the result. To that end, notification to the first user has been added to the flowchart above. A known technology may be used for notification.

It is also effective for the master system to change the modality, not the main communicator, as follows. (* in Table 7)

That is, the second user himself or the second user's guardian or caregiver registers/reserves a modality change under special conditions in the master system, and the master system calls or confirms the change.

Examples of such special conditions include the second user's memorandum [forgetfulness prevention], the case of calling the second user's attention to the second user's troubles that parents and caregivers predict and expect, and the like. , or a case where a person who is not the first user calls attention to himself/herself.

In this way, the master system also incorporates information transmission sources other than the first and second users into the system of the present invention, with which caregivers and guardians do not normally exchange information digitally as first and second users. It is possible to obtain the effect of effectively calling attention to an unexpected action or situation of the two users.

In addition, from the perspective that the master system realizes alerting from users other than the first and second users, first and second users such as local governments and governments in emergencies, and international emergency monitoring groups usually exchange information. Information sources that are not available are also incorporated into the system of the present invention, and the effect of alerting people in a gentle and human-friendly manner, which is effective in emergencies such as large earthquakes and emergencies, is obtained.
