DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings illustrating embodiments thereof.
[0018]
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing an example of the basic configuration of the personal status notification system of the present invention. The personal status notification system of the present invention basically includes a conventionally known location management system 1, a personal status determination system 2 that determines and notifies the status of each individual based on the detection result of the location management system 1, Each terminal device 3 (3-1, 3-2, 3-3, etc.) for displaying the state of each individual determined by the personal state determination system 2 is configured.
[0019]
The whereabouts management system 1 is a sensor S-101 installed in an appropriate location in the office, for example, on each person's desk, passage, meeting room used by unspecified majority, dining room, toilet, break room (smoking room), etc. S-201 and the like, and a processing device 10 that processes the detection results of these sensors and generates information on the current location of each individual (hereinafter referred to as location data). Individuals P1, P2, etc. carry a transmitter (not shown) that transmits a unique identification signal using far-infrared rays, light, ultrasonic waves, or the like. Specifically, the transmitter is built in a badge (name plate) where the name of each person P1, P2, etc. is put on the chest, and the identification signal transmitted from this is sent to each of the sensors S-101, S -201 etc. The detection results of the sensors S-101, S-201, etc. are collected in the processing device 10.
[0020]
Each individual P1, P2, etc. carries a communication means such as pagers T1, T2.
[0021]
FIG. 2 is a functional block diagram showing a specific configuration example of the personal state determination system 2. The personal state determination system 2 is mainly composed of a state detection unit 21 and a state notification unit 22.
[0022]
The state detection unit 21 includes a first data table memory (hereinafter referred to as a whereabouts information table) 211 for storing a history of each individual's whereabouts data generated by the processing device 10, and each sensor S-101, The second is pre-stored with information on the location of the S-201, etc., and the relationship between the personal P1, P2, etc. and the badge (more specifically, the identification signal transmitted by the built-in transmitter) Data table memory (hereinafter referred to as a basic information table) 212, and a third data table for storing the status of each individual obtained based on the data stored in the whereabouts information table 211 and the basic information table 212 A memory (hereinafter referred to as an individual-specific action data table) 213 is provided. Based on the data stored in the above-mentioned whereabouts information table 211 and basic information table 212, the state detection unit 21 determines whether or not each person is moving, that is, whether or not they are moving. , Speed) is stored in the individual-specific behavior data table 213 and output to the state notification unit 22 as state data.
[0023]
The state notification unit 22 notifies each terminal device 3 of the state data given from the state detection unit 21 described above, and performs operations such as displaying the contents of a To Do List as described later based on the state data. For this reason, in the status notification unit 22, a schedule table 222 for storing information on a schedule input by each individual person using each terminal device 3 and each individual person using each from each terminal device 3 are also stored. And a To Do List table 223 for storing information related to the input To Do List message. Reference numeral 220 denotes an antenna for making a call from the state notification unit 22 to a pager carried by each individual.
[0024]
FIG. 3 is a schematic view illustrating the stored contents of the whereabouts information table 211. The contents of the whereabouts information table 211 are classified by ID numbers (hereinafter referred to as individual IDs) assigned to each individual, and data (hereinafter referred to as sensor IDs) for identifying the sensors detecting the individual. Here, the reference numerals of the sensors are used) and their times are stored as a set of data. In the example shown in FIG. 3, an individual with the personal ID “0001” starts to be detected by the sensor with the sensor ID S-101 at time 10:00:00 (10:00 am), and then reaches the current time. That state continues. In addition, the individual with the personal ID “0002” starts to be detected by the sensor of S-201 at the time 10:00:00 (10:00 am) and the sensor ID is S at the subsequent time 10:00:10. -202, the sensor ID starts to be detected by the S-203 sensor at 10:00:20, and the sensor ID is detected by the S-204 sensor at 10:00:30. I'm starting. From this, for example, if the sensors S-201, S-202, S-203, S-204 etc. are installed at equal intervals, the individual with the personal ID “0002” is moving at a constant speed. I guess that. In addition, the individual with the personal ID “0003” starts to be detected by the sensor of S-204 at the time 10:00:00 (10:00 am) and the sensor ID is S at the subsequent time 10:00:10. The sensor ID starts to be detected by the sensor S-204 again at the time 10:00:30. For this reason, for example, if the installation position of the sensor S-204 is on the desk of the individual with the personal ID “0003”, the individual with the personal ID “0003” temporarily moves from his / her seat to the installation position of the sensor S-203. It is speculated that he immediately returned to his seat.
[0025]
In the personal status notification system of the present invention, by making the above estimation based on the contents of the whereabouts information table 211, the status of the individual, specifically where he is or where he is moving from, etc. Is notified to each terminal device 3 as a main feature.
[0026]
FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating the stored contents of the basic information table 212. In the basic information table 212, as shown in FIG. 4 (a), each badge ID number (hereinafter referred to as a badge ID), an identification signal transmitted by each badge, and each individual carrying it. Correspondence with personal IDs such as P1, P2, etc., correspondence between personal ID and actual name and pager number as communication means, as shown in Fig. 4 (b), and Fig. 4 (c) As shown, the correspondence between the sensor ID, its installation position, and the nearest telephone (extension) number is stored.
[0027]
According to the contents of this basic information table 212, when a certain sensor receives an identification signal, the installation position is determined from the sensor ID, the personal ID is determined from the badge ID corresponding to the received identification signal, and from the personal ID. Name is revealed. Therefore, it becomes clear who is in which position in the office.
[0028]
Further, the basic information table 212 stores map data for displaying a map showing the arrangement state of each sensor as shown in the schematic diagram of FIG. In FIG. 5, “□” indicates a sensor disposed in an individual office desk, and “△” indicates a sensor disposed in a room used by an unspecified number of individuals. There is no difference. R0 indicates a corridor, and four sensors are installed. R1 indicates an office, and sensors for detecting whether or not each individual is at his / her own seat are installed on each desk, for example. Each of R2, R3, and R4 indicates a conference room, and one sensor for detecting an individual in each room is installed. R5 and R6 are toilets, R7 is a hot water supply room, R8 and R9 are data rooms, and R10 is a smoking room. Each of these rooms has a sensor to detect individuals in each room. Each one is installed. As will be described later, this map can also be displayed on the terminal device 3 arranged on each individual's desk.
[0029]
Based on the stored contents of the location information table 211 and the basic information table 212 as described above, the state detection unit 21 creates an individual behavior data table 213 as shown in FIG. 6 as an example. This individual behavior data table 213 uses a personal ID as a search key, “dirname” indicating the corresponding name, “status” indicating the current status, “location” indicating the currently installed sensor location, Data such as “telno” indicating the telephone (extension) number corresponding to the current position, “memo” indicating the information entered by the individual with the personal ID, and “modify time” indicating the time when the detection sensor changed are recorded. ing.
[0030]
The operation of the personal status notification system of the present invention having the above configuration will be described below.
[0031]
FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing a procedure for creating the individual-specific behavior data table 213 by the state detection unit 21. First, the state detection unit 21 obtains location data including a badge ID and a sensor ID from the location management system 1 (step S11), acquires a personal ID corresponding to the badge ID from the basic information table 212 (step S12), A new sensor ID is recorded in the location information table 211 using the personal ID as a search key, and the immediately preceding sensor ID is read (step S13) to determine whether or not the individual has moved (step S14).
[0032]
If it has moved (“YES” in step S14), the state detection unit 21 acquires the location name corresponding to the sensor ID before and after the movement based on the map data stored in the basic information table 212 (step S15). Then, the movement vector is calculated based on the map data (step S16), “moving”, “speed, direction” are written in the “status” column of the individual behavior data table 213 (step S17), and the individual behavior is further calculated. Data of a new sensor ID is also written in the “location” column of the data table 213 (step S18). On the other hand, if it has not moved ("NO" in step S14), the state detection unit 21 writes the new sensor ID data as it is in the "location" column of the individual-specific behavior data table 213 (step S18).
[0033]
The calculation of the movement vector in step S16 is a process for calculating the direction and speed of movement on the map based on the map data stored in the basic information table 212. In this case, since the moving speed is the speed at which a person walks and moves in any case, it is sufficient to classify in three stages of high, medium, and low.
[0034]
Each time the location detection unit 21 acquires location data from the location management system 1, the above-described processing is repeated, and the individual behavior data table 213 includes information about each individual's whereabouts and whether they are moving. Are accumulated sequentially.
[0035]
In this way, the data relating to each individual stored in the individual-specific behavior data table 213 is displayed on the terminal device 3 provided on the desk of each individual. For example, when Mr. A wants to know the location of a specific individual Mr. B, Mr. A enters his name on his or her desk terminal (or another terminal). At this time, whether or not to display the same person is displayed. Specifically, in addition to the display of Mr. B's whereabouts intended in this case, whether or not there is a person who is present with Mr. B is displayed. An optional function (hereinafter referred to as “seat attendee display” optional function) can be specified. Hereinafter, with respect to the operation of the state detection unit 21 when such an operation is performed in any one of the terminal devices 3, the flowchart of FIG. 8 showing the procedure and the display states of the terminal device 3 of FIGS. This will be described with reference to the schematic diagram.
[0036]
When the personal name of Mr. B is input as a search target from any one of the terminal devices 3, the state detecting unit 21 acquires a personal ID corresponding to the personal name from the basic information table 212 (step S21). Then, the contents of the individual-specific behavior data table 213 are read using the personal ID as a search key (step S22). At this time, if the “seat attendee display” option function is not designated (“NO” in step S23), the data read out from the individual-specific behavior data table 213 is the terminal device in which the personal name of Mr. B is input as it is. 3 (step S24) and displayed.
[0037]
A display example of the terminal device 3 in the above case is shown in a schematic diagram of FIG. In this example, “Mr. B” is input as “Searcher”, and “No” is selected for the “Participant display” option function. As a result, as shown in the figure, “Mr. B is moving” is displayed, and it is also displayed that the moving direction is from Mr. B's seat to Mr. C's seat. Also,"<“<” Indicates that the vehicle is moving at a medium speed. In addition, "< If the movement is at low speed instead of "<", "<" is used for movement at high speed, and "<<<"Is displayed respectively.
[0038]
By the way, in the portion of the display example shown in FIG. 9, the presence status of each individual is displayed according to the detection result of the sensor installed on each desk. Therefore, the same location search as described above can be performed by clicking an icon relating to a person on this screen.
[0039]
Further, another display using the map data described above is also possible. For example, as shown in the schematic diagram of Fig. 10, the target individual is displayed as "●" and the other individuals as "○", and the target individual is moving Is displayed with an arrow in the length corresponding to the moving speed.
[0040]
On the other hand, when the “same person display” option function is designated (“YES” in step S23), the state detection unit 21 obtains other personal IDs detected by the same sensor at that time from the location information table 211. Obtain (step S25), obtain the corresponding personal name from the basic information table 212 (step S26), and send it to the terminal (step S24).
[0041]
A display example of the terminal device 3 in the above case is shown in a schematic diagram of FIG. In this example, “Mr. B” is input as “Searcher”, and “Yes” is selected for the “seat attendee display” option function. As a result, as shown in the figure, “Mr. B is present” is displayed, and the personal name of the person who is present (Mr. C in this case) is also displayed.
[0042]
Further, another display using the map data described above is also possible. For example, as shown in the schematic diagram of the display status of the terminal device in FIG. 12, the target individual is displayed with “●”, the other individuals are displayed with “○”, and the target individual is displayed. At the same time, the personal name of the person who is near is displayed.
[0043]
By the way, when the individual who is the object of the location search is moving, if the individual's schedule or the like is known, the destination of the movement may be estimated based on the schedule. A processing procedure in such a case will be described below with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
[0044]
When Mr. B's personal name is input as a search target from any of the terminal devices 3 as described above, the state detection unit 21 acquires a personal ID corresponding to the personal name from the basic information table 212 (step S31). Then, the contents of the individual-specific behavior data table 213 are read using the personal ID as a search key (step S32). At this time, if the individual to be searched is not moving (“NO” in step S33), the data read from the individual behavior data table 213 is sent as it is to the terminal device 3 in which the personal name of Mr. B is inputted. Is displayed (step S37).
[0045]
On the other hand, when the individual to be searched is moving (“YES” in step S33), the state detection unit 21 reads the schedule corresponding to the personal ID from the schedule table 222 (step S34), and the time of the schedule It is checked whether the destination and the destination are consistent with the current time and the movement direction read from the individual behavior data table 213 in the previous step S32 (step S35). As a result, if “NO”, the data previously read from the individual behavior data table 213 in step S32 is sent as it is to the terminal device 3 in which the personal name of Mr. B is inputted (step S37). ),Is displayed.
[0046]
If “YES” in step S35, the state detection unit 21 calculates the required time to the destination based on the map data with reference to the current moving speed (step S36), and the result is Mr. B. Is sent to the terminal device 3 in which the personal name is input (step S37) and displayed.
[0047]
A display example of the terminal device 3 in the above case is shown in a schematic diagram of FIG. In this example, “Mr. B” is input as the “searcher”. As a result, as shown in the figure, “Mr. B is moving” is displayed, the direction of movement is from Mr. B's seat to Mr. C's seat, and it is also possible to go to the second conference room. Is displayed. Also, “20:00-Scheduled meeting in the second meeting room” and “5 minutes until arrival” are also displayed. In the display example portion shown in FIG. 14, the presence status of each individual is displayed according to the detection result of the sensor installed on each desk. Therefore, the same location search as described above can be performed by clicking an icon relating to a person on this screen.
[0048]
Further, another display using the map data described above is also possible. For example, as shown in the schematic diagram of the display status of the terminal device in FIG. 15, the target individual is displayed with “●” and the other individuals are displayed with “○”, and the target individual is displayed. When the is moving, an arrow having a length corresponding to the moving speed is displayed in the direction, and the schedule and the required time for arrival at the destination are displayed.
[0049]
The personal status notification system of the present invention has the basic functions as described above, but also has various optional functions. First of all, the procedure for displaying that when another person approaches each person's seat (hereinafter referred to as the “accessor display” option function) will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. .
[0050]
When the “approximate display” option function is selected in a certain terminal device 3, the state detection unit 21 repeats the following processing at predetermined time intervals (step S41). First, every time a predetermined time elapses, the state detection unit 21 acquires a personal ID in which the “status” column of the data of each personal ID in the individual behavior data table 213 is moving (step S42). It is checked whether or not the terminal device 3 is selecting the “user display” option function (step S43).
[0051]
If there is no moving personal ID in step S42 described above and if there is no personal ID approaching the terminal device 3 for which the “approximate display” option function is selected in step S43 described above (“NO in step S43”). "), The state detection unit 21 returns the process to the above-described step S41 and waits for a predetermined time. If “YES” in step S43, that is, if there is an individual ID approaching the terminal device 3 for which the “approximate display” option function has been selected, the state detection unit 21 detects the personal ID. Is acquired from the basic information table 212 (step S44), and data is sent to the terminal (step S45).
[0052]
A display example of the terminal device 3 in the above case is shown in a schematic diagram of FIG. In this example, “Yes” is selected as the “approximate display” option function in the terminal device 3 on Mr. B's desk. As a result, if Mr. C is approaching Mr. B's desk, for example, “Mr. C is approaching” is displayed as shown.
[0053]
In the above example, the message “Mr. C is approaching” is displayed on the terminal device 3, but it is also possible to notify by voice and, of course, both can be used together. .
[0054]
Next, an optional function that uses the To Do List will be described. For example, when Mr. B has registered a To Do List for Mr. C, when Mr. C approaches Mr. B's desk, a function to display or voice notification to that effect (hereinafter referred to as "To Do List"). This is called a “List notification” option function), and will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
[0055]
First, when Mr. B uses his / her desk or other terminal device 3 and inputs, for example, “Mr. C makes a business trip meeting” as a To Do List message, this is sent from the terminal device 3 to the status notification unit 22. It is transmitted and registered in the To Do List table 223. In addition, when Mr. B has selected this “To Do List Notification” option function in his / her desk terminal device 3, the state detection unit 21 repeats the following process at predetermined time intervals (steps). S51).
[0056]
First, every time a predetermined time elapses, the state detection unit 21 acquires a personal ID in which the “status” column of the data of each personal ID in the individual behavior data table 213 is moving (step S52), and this is a status notification. It is checked whether or not the message is a target person of the message registered in the To Do List table 223 of the section 22 (step S53).
[0057]
If there is no moving personal ID in step S52 described above, and if there is no target person of the message registered in the To Do List table 223 of the status notification unit 22 in step S53 described above (in step S53) If NO ”), the state detection unit 21 returns the process to the above-described step S51 and waits for a predetermined time. If “YES” in step S53, that is, if the target person of the message registered in the To Do List table 223 of the state notification unit 22 matches one of the moving personal IDs, the state detection unit 21 Checks whether the personal ID is approaching the desk of the message registrant (step S54).
[0058]
If “YES” in step S54 described above, the state detection unit 21 further determines whether the registrant of the message has set the “To Do List Notification” option function in the terminal device 3 on his desk. Check (step S55). If “YES” in step S55, the state detection unit 21 acquires the personal name corresponding to the personal ID from the basic information table 212 (step S56), and sends data to the terminal (step S56). S57).
[0059]
A display example of the terminal device 3 in the above case is shown in a schematic diagram of FIG. In this example, “Yes” is selected as the “To Do List Notification” option function in the terminal device 3 on Mr. B's desk. As a result, if Mr. C is approaching Mr. B's desk, as shown in the figure, "C is approaching", "To Do List is registered", "Meetings for business trips" Is displayed.
[0060]
In the above example, display is performed on the terminal device 3, but it is also possible to notify by voice, and of course, both can be used together.
[0061]
Next, still another optional function using the To Do List will be described. For example, when Mr. B is registering a To Do List for Mr. C, when Mr. C approaches Mr. B's desk, a message of To Do List is displayed on the pager that Mr. C is carrying. This is a function for notifying Mr. C who is the subject of the To Do List by displaying it (hereinafter referred to as “To Do List Call” option function), and will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
[0062]
First, when Mr. B uses his / her desk or other terminal device 3 and inputs, for example, “I will make a business trip meeting with Mr. C” as a To Do List message, this is sent from the terminal device 3 to the status notification unit 22. It is transmitted and registered in the To Do List table 223. In addition, when Mr. B has selected this “To Do List Call” option function in his / her terminal device 3, the state detection unit 21 repeats the following processing at predetermined time intervals (steps). S61).
[0063]
First, every time a predetermined time elapses, the state detection unit 21 acquires a personal ID in which the “status” column of each personal ID data in the individual-specific behavior data table 213 is moving (step S62), and this is a status notification. It is checked whether or not the message is a subject person registered in the To Do List table 223 of the section 22 (step S63).
[0064]
If there is no moving personal ID in the above step S62, and if there is no target person of the message registered in the To Do List table 223 of the status notification unit 22 in the above step S63 (in step S63) If NO ”), the state detection unit 21 returns the process to the above-described step S61 and waits for a predetermined time. If “YES” in step S63, that is, if the target person of the message registered in the status notification unit 22 or the To Do List table 223 matches one of the moving personal IDs, the status detection unit 21 It checks whether the personal ID is approaching the message registrant's desk (step S64).
[0065]
If “YES” in step S64 described above, the state detection unit 21 further determines whether or not the registrant of the message has set the “To Do List Call” option function in the terminal device 3 on his desk. Check (step S65).
