Description

The present invention relates to a program, an information processing terminal, a notification method, and an information processing system.

In recent years, it has become necessary to wear masks as a countermeasure against infectious diseases such as the new coronavirus and influenza. For example, in nursing care facilities where elderly people live together, techniques have been known for estimating the risk of infecting infectious diseases caused by conversations with visitors (e.g., patent literature 1).

By the way, wearing a mask as a countermeasure against infectious diseases is also required for users who are at high risk of suffering from heat stroke, such as workers who work under the scorching sun. On the other hand, users who are at high risk of heat stroke may want to remove the mask to work as a countermeasure against heat stroke. In places such as work sites where it is necessary to take measures against both infectious diseases and heat stroke, it is possible to work with masks removed when there are no other people within the specified range. It was difficult to make a worker or the like judge whether or not there is. Patent Literature 1 does not describe such a problem.

An object of an embodiment of the present invention is to provide a program capable of notifying a user that he/she may remove the mask he/she is wearing as a countermeasure against infectious diseases.

In order to achieve the above-described problems, claim 1 of the present application provides an information processing terminal installed with a program for notifying a user, which is installed with the same program as the program, and can establish communication by short-range wireless communication. A detection unit that detects another user's information processing terminal existing within a first predetermined distance, and a state in which the other user's information processing terminal does not exist within a second predetermined distance that is closer than the first predetermined distance. If so, the program is characterized by functioning as a notification unit that notifies that the mask may be removed.

According to the embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to notify the user that the mask worn as a countermeasure against infectious diseases may be removed.

The user who possesses the information processing terminal 10 can recognize that the mask can be removed by confirming the message as shown in FIG. Note that the notification that the mask can be removed may be made by sound or vibration. Also, the notification that the mask may be removed may be made using two or more of message display, sound, and vibration at the same time.

After notifying the user that the mask may be removed, the detection unit 22 proceeds to the process of step S108. Further, in step S104, the detection unit 22 that determines that the mask should not be removed skips the process of step S106 and proceeds to the process of step S108.

In step S108, the information processing terminal 10 determines whether or not an operation to terminate the application has been received. If the operation for ending the application has not been received, the information processing terminal 10 returns to the process of step S104. Upon accepting the application end operation, the information processing terminal 10 ends the processing of the flowchart shown in FIG.

When the risk of heatstroke at the work site where the user is working is in a state where the risk of heatstroke is equal to or higher than a predetermined ratio, the information processing terminal 10 determines that heatstroke countermeasures are necessary, and removes the mask to prevent heatstroke. The user is notified of heat stroke countermeasures other than removing the .

For example, even if the risk of heatstroke at the work site where the user is working is a predetermined percentage or more, in a state where other users are within a second predetermined distance, it is essential to wear a mask from the viewpoint of infectious disease countermeasures. Therefore, the user is notified of heat stroke countermeasures other than removing the mask (for example, taking a break, rehydrating, or working in the shade). In addition, in a state where the risk of heatstroke at the work site where the user is working is equal to or higher than a predetermined percentage and there is no other user within a second predetermined distance, the user is notified of heatstroke countermeasures by removing the mask. do.

When the heat stroke risk ratio is determined by the heat index (WBGT), for example, when the heat index is at the level of danger, high alert, or caution, the risk of heat stroke is equal to or higher than a predetermined ratio. It is determined that the state is

If it exists within a range of 2 meters, which is an example, it is determined that a heat stroke countermeasure other than removing the mask is required. The information processing terminal 10 notifies the user that the heat stroke countermeasures other than removing the mask are necessary so as to make the user aware.

For example, the information processing terminal 10 performs processing according to the procedure shown in FIG. 8, thereby achieving both countermeasures against infectious diseases and heatstroke. FIG. 8 is an example flowchart showing a processing procedure of the information processing terminal according to the present embodiment.

In step S200, the information processing terminal 10 possessed by the user who works at the work site executes the application according to the present embodiment. The determining unit 26 of the information processing terminal 10 that has executed the application starts determining the risk of heat stroke. Further, the information processing terminal 10 executing the application performs the short-range wireless communication if another information processing terminal 10 exists within 10 meters, which is an example of the first predetermined distance at which the short-range wireless communication is possible. Establish.

In step S202, the determination unit 26 of the information processing terminal 10 determines whether or not the risk of heat stroke at the work site where the user is working is equal to or higher than a predetermined ratio. If the risk of heat stroke is equal to or higher than the predetermined ratio, the determination unit 26 proceeds to the process of step S204.

In step S<b>204 , the detection unit 22 determines whether or not there is another user's information processing terminal 10 installed with the same application within 2 meters, which is an example of the second predetermined distance. If there is another user's information processing terminal 10 installed with the same application within 2 meters, the detection unit 22 determines that the mask must not be removed. The detection unit 22 that has determined that the mask should not be removed proceeds to the process of step S206.

In step S206, the notification unit 24 notifies the user that heatstroke countermeasures other than removing the mask are required by displaying a message such as that shown in FIG. 9A. FIG. 9 is an image diagram of an example of notification to the user. By confirming a message such as that shown in FIG. 9A, the user can recognize that heatstroke countermeasures other than removing the mask are necessary. After notifying the user that the heatstroke countermeasure other than removing the mask is required, the information processing terminal 10 proceeds to the process of step S210.

Further, in step S204, if there is no other user's information processing terminal 10 installed with the same application within 2 meters, which is an example of the second predetermined distance, the detection unit 22 determines that the mask may be removed. . The detection unit 22 that determines that the mask may be removed proceeds to the processing of step S208.

In step S208, the notification unit 24 displays, for example, a message as shown in FIG. Notice. By confirming the message as shown in FIG. 9B, the user can recognize that heat stroke countermeasures are necessary and that heat stroke countermeasures can be taken by removing the mask. After notifying the user that it is possible to take measures against heat stroke by removing the mask, the information processing terminal 10 proceeds to the process of step S210.

In step S210, the information processing terminal 10 determines whether or not an operation to terminate the application has been received. If the operation for ending the application has not been received, the information processing terminal 10 returns to the process of step S202. Upon receiving the application termination operation, the information processing terminal 10 terminates the processing of the flowchart shown in FIG. 8 .
