Description

  The present invention relates to an ear-mounted electronic device, a movement history display device, and a program.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there are electronic devices that measure biological information related to the blood flow of a human body such as a pulse and a heart rate. Such electronic device products have various shapes and sizes, and some of them are downsized to be portable and are integrated into other products.

  As an example, there is an electronic device in which a pulse sensor is incorporated in a wristwatch. The user abuts the abdominal surface of the finger end on the pulse sensor incorporated in the wristwatch, the pulse is optically detected by the pulse sensor, and the pulse rate is displayed on the display unit of the wristwatch body.

  Such miniaturized electronic devices are often used, for example, during running such as jogging or walking or walking exercise (hereinafter, only the running exercise will be described for the sake of simplicity). However, in wristwatch-type electronic devices, the measurement result is displayed on the display of the wristwatch. Therefore, in order to confirm the measurement result, the wristwatch worn on the wrist must be lifted to the height of the line of sight. Or it was an obstacle to walking movement.

  Therefore, the following technology has been devised as an ear-mounted electronic device that informs the measurement result by voice. That is, it is composed of a belt and headphones on which an ECG (electrocardiogram) measurement electrode is arranged, and the headphone type that wraps the belt around a trunk such as the chest and abdomen and outputs the heart rate measured via the ECG measurement electrode from the headphones. It is an electronic device (see Patent Document 1).

  There are also portable electronic devices that display information for guiding directions. A typical example of such an electronic device is a built-in GPS receiver that receives a GPS signal transmitted from a GPS satellite, measures the current position based on the received GPS signal, and maps the measured current position to a map. There is a mobile phone called a GPS mobile phone displayed on an image. The user can know where his / her current position is while traveling by carrying such an electronic device.

In addition, the distance and direction from the departure point are sequentially stored when traveling on the forward path, and the stored direction is read in the reverse direction when traveling on the return path, and the moving direction is displayed in reverse, and the stored distance is stored. A navigation device that reads and displays the distance traveled from the distance is known (see Patent Document 2).
US Pat. No. 5,314,389 JP-A-7-19881

In order to know the history, there is no other way to store or record the biometric information output by voice.

  Moreover, if the sound linked to the traveling motion is output from the headphones, the sound can be effectively used for the traveling motion, but the actually output radio broadcast is a speech that has nothing to do with the traveling motion.

  In addition, in the above-described mobile phone and the electronic device disclosed in Patent Document 2, in order to check whether or not the vehicle is traveling on the planned travel route during the travel exercise, a map is displayed by a predetermined operation, and the display unit is visually recognized. It was annoying because it was necessary.

Further, when the user travels on the planned course, the user can travel at a suitable pace by knowing whether or not the planned route is traveled on time. Only displayed the current position, the heading of the return path, and the remaining distance, and did not know whether or not he was driving the scheduled course on time.

Hereinafter, the outline of the mechanism of the headphone device 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. The direction in the description is the direction for the user wearing the headphone device 1. Specifically, when the headphone-type device 1 is worn, the face side (left side in FIG. 2B) is the front, the occipital side (right side in FIG. 2B) is the rear, and the left ear side is left and right. The ear side is right, the top is up, and the bottom is down. In addition, the direction in which the left and right arm portions 902R and 902L are close to each other, that is, the direction toward the center of the head is defined as the inner direction, and the opposite is defined as the outer direction.

  The headphone-type device 1 includes a main body 900, a right arm 902R, a left arm 902L, a right driver unit 904R and a left driver unit 904L with a built-in speaker 52, and a pulse sensor 906.

  The main body 900 includes various control circuits, a power supply unit, and the like inside, and an operation panel 914 is disposed on the front. A right arm support 916R is formed at the right end, and a left arm support 916L is formed at the left end.

  In the operation panel 914, for example, a display 918 constituted by an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) or the like and various switch groups 920 are disposed. The various switch group 920 includes a mode switch 920a, a radio switch 920b, a volume switch 920c, a start / stop switch 920d, and a power switch 920e.

  The mode switch 920a is a switch for setting the operation mode of the headphone device 1. The radio switch 920b is a switch for starting reception of radio broadcasts, and also functions as a switch for starting movement history recording processing according to the first embodiment. The volume switch 920c is a switch for changing the volume. The start / stop switch 920d is a switch for starting or stopping detection of a pulse by the pulse sensor 906. The start / stop switch 920d also serves as a stopwatch ON / OFF switching operation. When the pulse detection is started, the stopwatch is operated, and when the pulse detection is stopped, the stopwatch operation is also stopped. . The power switch 920e is a switch for switching power ON / OFF.

  The right arm 902R is supported at the upper right end of the main body 900 so as to be urged in the direction of the inner arrow V1, and the left arm 902L is urged at the upper left end of the main body 900 in the direction of the inner arrow V3. To be supported. Further, the right arm portion 902R and the left arm portion 902L are formed to be curved along the general shape of the temporal region of the human body from the left and right ear holes E to the occipital head H.

  The right arm support portion 916R is a mechanism for supporting the right arm portion 902R, and the left arm support portion 916L is a mechanism for supporting the left arm portion 902L. The right arm support portion 916R includes a biasing mechanism such as a torsion coil spring for biasing the right arm portion 902R in the direction of the arrow V1 (inward direction). A torsion coil spring is wound around one end of the right arm portion 902R inserted from the upper end portion of the right arm support portion 916R to urge the right arm portion 902R in the direction of the arrow V1.

  The left arm support portion 916L is a mechanism for supporting the left arm portion 902L, and a connector 924 for connecting the cable 5 is formed. Note that the mechanism of the left arm support portion 916L is symmetrical to the right arm support portion 916R, and thus the description of the left arm support portion 916L is omitted.

  A right driver unit support portion 908R for supporting the right driver unit 904R is provided at the distal end portion of the right arm portion 902R. A left driver unit support portion 908L that supports the left driver unit 904L is provided at the tip of the left arm portion 902L.

  On the right side surface of the right driver unit support portion 908R, a pulse switch (not shown) for outputting a sound for reading out the pulse rate immediately after measurement is disposed. On the left side surface of the left driver unit support portion 904L, A tuner switch 910 for selecting a radio station is provided.

  The pulse sensor 906 is a detection unit that detects a state of blood flow called a pulse as biological information, has a clip that can be clamped to an earlobe that is a part of the auricle, and optically detects the pulse. A sensor is disposed on the clamping surface. The pulse sensor 906 is electrically connected from the left side surface of the main body 900 via a cable 912. Since the mechanism and configuration of the sensor for optically detecting the pulse are known techniques, detailed description thereof is omitted. Further, the left arm portion 902L is provided with a collar 922 formed in a plate shape for sandwiching and locking the pulse sensor 906 when the user does not use the pulse sensor 906.

  In order to attach the headphone device 1, the user holds and spreads the right arm unit 902R and the left arm unit 902L in a direction in which the right driver unit 904R and the left driver unit 904L are separated from each other. Then, the headphone device 1 is moved so as to go around the head from the back head H side, the right driver unit 904R and the left driver unit 904L are inserted into the left and right ear holes E, and the headphone device 1 is mounted.

  At this time, due to the urging force transmitted to the right driver unit 904R and the left driver unit 904L via the right arm portion 902R and the left arm portion 902L, the right driver unit 904R and the left driver unit 904L are directed in the ear canal. It is pressed (inward direction). Further, as shown in FIG. 2B, the back surface of the main body 900 (the back surface opposite to the operation panel 914) is brought into contact with the lower part of the back of the head H to maintain the posture of the main body 10.

  The following effects can be obtained by using the headphone type device 1 as described above. First, the right driver unit 904R is inserted into the ear canal E of the right ear and the left driver unit 904L is inserted into the ear canal E of the left ear, and is pressed toward the inner side of the head by the urging force transmitted through each arm portion. Thus, the right driver unit 904R and the left driver unit 904L are reliably inserted into the ear canal. For this reason, it becomes difficult for each driver unit to come off with respect to the movement of the head, and a stable wearing feeling can be obtained.

  In addition, a straight line connecting the right driver unit 904R inserted into the right ear hole and the left driver unit 904L inserted into the left ear hole E can serve as a swing shaft for swinging the main body 900 in the vertical direction. The displacement of the headphone device 1 in the axial direction of the swing shaft is suppressed.

  In addition, since the power source unit such as a battery and various control circuits are built in the main body 900, the main body 900 occupies most of the weight of the headphone-type device 1 and becomes a heavy object to some extent. Therefore, the main body 900 is brought into contact with the vicinity of the lower portion of the back of the head H due to the relationship between its own weight and the swing shaft. Therefore, the headphone-type device 1 is held in a stable posture in which the main body 900 is in contact with the vicinity of the lower part of the back of the head H, and even if the user is running or walking (moving), Is suppressed.

  In addition, since there are three places in contact with the head, the left and right ear holes and the occipital head H, a feeling of obstruction that covers the head like conventional headphones is reduced, and a comfortable wearing feeling is obtained. .

  Further, the right arm portion 902R is attached from the outside of the right ear pinna and the left arm portion 902L is attached so as to go around the outside of the left ear pinna. Accordingly, since the right arm portion 902R and the left arm portion 902L are not hung at the base portions of the left and right auricles, glasses can be easily worn when the headphone device 1 is worn.

  Further, the pulse sensor 906 connected to the left side surface of the main body 900 is locked by pinching the pinna of the left auricle. Accordingly, since the headphone type device 1 is completely worn by being worn on the user's head, the cable 912 is unlikely to be an obstacle to the user's running or walking (movement).

  The pulse sensor 906 is sandwiched and locked on the left ear (left side), whereas the pulse switch is disposed on the right driver unit support portion 908R (right side). Thereby, the influence on the pulse detection of the pulse sensor 906 on the left side by the operation on the right side of the headphone type device 1 that is the operation of the pulse switch for listening to the measurement result of the pulse rate can be reduced.

  Due to the effects as described above, the headphone device 1 is suitable as an electronic device for measuring biological information during running or walking (moving).

  FIG. 3 is a block diagram illustrating an example of a functional configuration of the headphone type device 1. According to the figure, the headphone-type device 1 is a living body from a pulse detected by a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 10, a flash ROM (Read Only Memory) 20, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 30, and a pulse sensor 906. A pulse measuring unit 40 that measures a pulse rate as information; an audio output unit 50 for causing the speaker 52 to output audio; a communication device 60; an input unit 70; a display unit 80; and a radio receiving circuit unit 90. The vibration measuring unit 100 and the position detecting unit 110 are connected to the bus 120.

  The CPU 10 executes processing based on a predetermined program in accordance with an input instruction, and inputs / outputs instructions to each functional unit and data. Specifically, the CPU 10 reads a program stored in the flash ROM 20 in response to a press signal input from the input unit 70, and executes processing according to the program. Then, a display control signal for displaying the processing result is output to the display unit 80, and the processing result is displayed on the display unit 80.

  The flash ROM 20 is a readable / writable nonvolatile memory, and stores an initial program for performing various initial settings, hardware inspection, loading of necessary programs, and the like. The CPU 10 sets the operating environment of the headphone type device 1 by executing this initial program when the headphone type device 1 is powered on. The flash ROM 20 stores data and programs for realizing various functions related to the operation of the headphone device 1.

  The RAM 30 is a storage area for temporarily holding various programs executed by the CPU 10, data related to the execution of these programs, and the like.

  The pulse measuring unit 40 is a circuit unit for measuring the pulse detected by the pulse sensor 906. Specifically, when a pulse is detected by the pulse sensor 906, a detection signal is input. The pulse measuring unit 40 counts the detection signal for 1 minute, and outputs the counted value to the CPU 10 as the pulse rate.

  The audio output unit 50 is a circuit unit for causing the speaker 52 to output audio, and includes a D / A converter. The audio output unit 50 performs D / A conversion on the audio data input from the CPU 10 and outputs sound from the speaker 52 or causes the speaker 52 to output sound of the radio broadcast input from the radio reception circuit unit 90.

  The communication device 60 is, for example, a functional unit for connecting the personal computer 3 to perform data communication, and includes a USB (universal serial bus), a LAN interface, or the like. The communication device 60 corresponds to the connector 924 shown in FIG.

  The input unit 70 corresponds to the various switch group 920, the pulse switch, and the tuner switch 910 shown in FIG. 2, and outputs a pressed signal of the pressed switch to the CPU 10.

  The display unit 80 displays various screens based on a display control signal input from the CPU 10, and is configured by an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) or the like. The display unit 80 corresponds to the display 918 shown in FIG.

  The radio reception circuit unit 90 is a circuit unit that includes a reception antenna for receiving a radio broadcast, receives the radio broadcast via the reception antenna, and causes the speaker 52 to output the received radio broadcast.

  The vibration measurement unit 100 includes vibration detection means such as an accelerometer, detects vibration of the headphone type device 1, and outputs it to the CPU 10 as a vibration detection signal.

  The position detection unit 110 is configured to include a GPS signal receiving device for receiving a GPS signal transmitted from the GPS satellite 7, and measures the current position based on the received GPS signal. Specifically, GPS signals transmitted from a plurality of GPS satellites are received by a GPS antenna, and the current position (latitude, longitude) is measured by the received GPS signals and output to the CPU 10.

  FIG. 4A is a diagram showing the configuration of the flash ROM 20. According to the figure, the flash ROM 20 stores a movement history recording program 200 and movement history data 202.

  The movement history recording program 200 is a program for realizing the movement history recording process according to the first embodiment. Specifically, the movement history recording process is started when the CPU 10 reads the movement history recording program 200 from the flash ROM 20 and develops it in the RAM 30.

  The movement history data 202 is a data table for accumulatively storing recording times, passage positions, pulse rates, pitches, steps, and speeds in association with each other. The CPU 10 acquires and calculates each data every predetermined measurement time interval (for example, 1 minute interval), and additionally stores it in the movement history data 202. The measurement time interval is a time interval for acquiring and calculating each data, and is a preset value. The measurement time interval may be set to a desired time by the user.

  The recording time is the current time when each data is stored in the movement history data 202, and the current time is acquired and set by the CPU 10. The passing position is the current position at the recording time, and the current position acquired by the position detection unit 110 is set. The pulse rate is the pulse rate at the recording time, and the pulse rate measured by the pulse measuring unit 40 is set. The pitch is the number of steps per unit time, and is set to a value obtained by dividing a pitch calculation step 302 described later by the measurement time interval. The number of steps is the total number of steps since the departure point, and an accumulated number of steps 300 described later is set. The speed is the speed of movement of the user from the previous recording time to the current recording time (speed per hour). The speed is calculated by the CPU 10 calculating a linear distance between the passing position at the previous recording time and the passing position at the current time, and dividing the calculated distance by the measurement time interval.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of the data configuration of the movement history data 202. According to the figure, records in which recording time, passage position, pulse rate, pitch, number of steps, and speed are associated with each other are accumulated. For example, at the recording time “12:04”, the passing position (139 ° 38′25 ”, 35 ° 28′31”), pulse rate “118”, pitch “113”, step count “360”, speed “4. 8 ″. This is because the latitude of the current position at the recording time “12:04” is “139 ° 38′25” and the longitude is “35 ° 28'31”, and the measured pulse rate of the user at this time is “118”. It represents BPM (Beat Per Minute). Further, the number of steps (pitch) per unit time (for example, per minute) is “113” steps, the total number of steps since departure is “360” steps, and the average speed from the previous measurement to the current measurement is It represents that the speed is "4.8" km / h. Note that the pitch “0” at the recording time “12:00” indicates that the number of steps is not yet stored in the number of steps 302 for pitch calculation, and the pitch is not calculated. The speed “0” indicates that the speed is not calculated because the previous passing position is not stored.

  FIG. 4B is a diagram illustrating the configuration of the RAM 30. According to the figure, the RAM 30 stores an accumulated step count 300, a pitch calculation step count 302, and a time count 304.

  The accumulated number of steps 300 is the total number of steps since the user departed from the departure point. When the CPU 10 detects the vibration detection signal output from the vibration measuring unit 100 after starting the movement history recording process, the CPU 10 counts the number of times of detection and updates the accumulated number of steps 300.

  The number of steps 302 for pitch calculation is the number of steps at the measurement time interval. When detecting the vibration detection signal output from the vibration measuring unit 100, the CPU 10 counts the number of times of detection. Then, at the measurement time interval, the count value at that time is stored in the RAM 30 as the number of steps 302 for pitch calculation, and the count value is cleared. The CPU 10 calculates the pitch by dividing the pitch calculation step 302 by the measurement time interval, and then clears the pitch calculation step 302.

  The time count 304 is a time measured by a predetermined timer process of the CPU 10. After the movement history recording process is started by the CPU 10, time measurement is started and the time measurement time 304 is updated as needed. This time count 304 is cleared at every measurement time interval, and is again timed and updated by the timer processing of the CPU 10.

  FIG. 6 is a block diagram illustrating an example of a functional configuration of the personal computer 3. As shown in the figure, the personal computer 3 includes a CPU 300, a storage device 310, a RAM 320, a communication device 330, an input unit 340 having a mouse 342, and a display unit 350 connected to a bus 360.

  The storage device 310 is a readable / writable storage area configured by a hard disk or the like, and stores an initial program for performing various initial settings, hardware inspection, loading of necessary programs, and the like. The storage device 310 stores data and programs for realizing various functions related to the operation of the personal computer 3. As shown in the figure, the storage device 310 stores a movement history display program 312, movement history data 314, and a map image database (hereinafter, the database is abbreviated as “DB”) 316.

  The movement history display program 312 is a program for realizing the movement history display processing according to the first embodiment. Specifically, the CPU 300 reads the movement history display program 312 from the storage device 310 and expands it in the RAM 320 to start the movement history display process.

The movement history data 314 is movement history data 202 received from the headphone device 1.
The map image DB 316 is a database that stores map image data in an accumulative manner. The map image DB 316 is a database that reads map image data including latitude and longitude, and can specify a specified latitude and longitude point on the read map. It is. Conversely, when a point on the map image is designated, the latitude and longitude of the designated point are calculated. Since the mechanism of this map image DB 316 is a known one, its description is omitted.

  The RAM 320 stores designated position information 321. The designated position information 321 is information on latitude and longitude calculated by the map image DB from the position on the map image designated by the screen designation operation. The screen designation operation is an operation for designating one point on the map image by a click operation of the mouse 342.

  The communication device 330 is a functional unit for connecting the headphone device 1 to perform data communication, and is configured by a USB (universal serial bus), a LAN interface, or the like.

  The input unit 340 includes a mouse 342. The input unit 340 outputs the coordinates on the screen specified by the click operation of the mouse 342 to the CPU 300. In the first embodiment, the CPU 300 converts the input coordinates into latitude and longitude on the map image to be designated position information 321.

  The display unit 350 is configured by a backlit color LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) or ELD (Electronic Luminescent Display), and displays various information related to the operation of the personal computer 3, map images, and the like.

  Next, a specific operation of the movement history recording process of the headphone device 1 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  When the radio switch 920b is pressed by the user, the CPU 10 reads the movement history recording program 200 from the flash ROM 20 and develops it in the RAM 30, thereby starting the movement history recording process.

  When the movement history recording process is started, first, the CPU 10 starts counting the time 304, starts the radio reception circuit unit 90 to receive the radio broadcast, and outputs the radio broadcast from the speaker 52 (step A1). .

  Then, it is determined whether or not vibration is detected in the vibration measuring unit 100 (step A3). When it is determined that the vibration is detected (step A3: Yes), the CPU 10 determines that the accumulated step count 300 and the pitch calculation step count 302 are one. Add (step A5).

  When it is determined in step A3 that no vibration has been detected (step A3: No), or after the processing in step A5, the CPU 10 determines whether or not the measured time 304 has reached the time of the measurement time interval (step A7) When it is determined that the measurement time interval has not been reached (step A7: No), the process proceeds to step A21.

  When it is determined that the time of the measurement time interval has been reached (step A7: Yes), the time count 304 is reset, and the CPU 10 acquires the current time and stores it in the movement history data 314 as the recording time (step A9). . The GPS signal is received, the current position is measured, and the measured current position is stored in the movement history data 314 in association with the recording time stored in step A9 as the passing position (step A11).

  The CPU 10 reads the previous recording time and passage position, the current recording time and passage position from the movement history data 314, calculates the speed, and associates it with the recording time stored in step A9 in the movement history data 314. Store (step A13). Next, the pulse rate measured by the pulse measuring unit 40 is acquired and stored in the movement history data 314 in association with the recording time stored in step A9 (step A15).

  Then, the cumulative number of steps 300 is read out and stored in the movement history data 314 in association with the recording time stored in step A9 (step A17). Further, after calculating the pitch based on the pitch calculation step count 302 and storing it in the movement history data 314 in association with the recording time stored in step A9, the pitch calculation step count 302 is cleared (step A19).

  When it is determined in step A7 that the time of the measurement time interval has not been reached (step A7: No), or after the process of step A19, the CPU 10 ends the movement history storage process by the user (for example, Then, it is determined whether or not the radio switch 920b has been pressed (step A21). If it is determined that the end operation has not been performed (step A21: No), the process proceeds to step A3. Therefore, the current time, current position, speed, pulse rate, number of steps, and pitch are acquired and calculated every measurement time interval from the start of the movement history recording process to the end operation, and the movement history data 314 is obtained. Will be stored and stored.

  If it is determined in step A21 that the end operation has been performed (step A21: Yes), the CPU 10 transmits the movement history data 314 to the personal computer 3 via the communication device 60 (step A23), and the movement history recording process is ended.

  Next, a specific operation of the movement history display process of the personal computer 3 will be described using the flowchart of FIG.

  When the CPU 300 detects a predetermined operation by the user (for example, a selection operation from the menu screen displayed on the display unit 350), the CPU 300 reads the movement history display program 312 from the storage device 310 and expands it in the RAM 320 to display the movement history. Start processing.

  When the movement history display process is started, the CPU 10 receives the movement history data 202 from the headphone device 1 and stores it in the storage device 310 as the movement history data 314 (step B1). And map image data is read from map image DB316, and a map image is displayed on the display part 350 (step B3).

  Next, the CPU 10 reads the passage position from the movement history data 314 and displays the movement route on the map image (step B5). Specifically, one record is read from the movement history data 314, and a point corresponding to the passing position of the read record is displayed on the map image. Then, after the next record is read out and a point corresponding to the passing position of the read record is displayed on the map image, the point displayed immediately before is connected with a straight line. This series of processing is performed on the passing points of all records, and a line formed by connecting with a straight line is defined as a movement path.

  The CPU 10 waits until a screen designating operation by the user is detected (step B9). When it is determined that the screen designating operation is detected (step B5: Yes), the position information (specifically, the specified point on the map) The latitude and longitude) are stored in the RAM 320 as the specified position information 321.

  And it is discriminate | determined whether the designated position information 321 is the vicinity of a movement path | route (step B9). Specifically, the shortest distance between the designated position information 321 and the movement route is calculated, and if the calculated distance is equal to or less than a predetermined value (for example, 5 m), it is determined that the vehicle is in the vicinity of the movement route.

  If the CPU 10 determines that it is in the vicinity of the movement route (step B9: Yes), the CPU 10 searches the movement history data 314 for a record including the passing position closest to the designated position information (step B11). Then, after the contents of the read record (for example, the movement state CT in FIG. 9B) are displayed on the display unit 350 (step B13), the movement history display process is terminated. If it is determined in step B9 that it is not near the movement route (step B9: No), the movement history display process is terminated as it is.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of screen transition of a specific display screen of the personal computer 3. Hereinafter, an operation example of the user's headphone type device 1 and the personal computer 3 will be described with reference to FIG.

  First, the user wears the headphone device 1 and depresses the radio switch 920b, and then starts from the departure point ST and travels or walks to the arrival point GL. Meanwhile, in the headphone-type device 1, radio broadcasts are output from the left and right driver units (corresponding to step A1 in FIG. 7), and the current position, speed, pulse rate, pitch, and number of steps are measured at every measurement time interval. It is acquired / calculated and accumulated and stored in the movement history data 202 (corresponding to steps A7 → A9 to A19 in FIG. 7).

  When the user arrives at the arrival point GL and connects the headphone device 1 to the personal computer 3, the map image PC is displayed on the display unit 350 of the personal computer 3. Further, on this map image PC, a moving route CS, which is a route on which the user has traveled or walked, is displayed between the departure point ST and the arrival point GL (FIG. 9A) (step of FIG. 8). Equivalent to B1 to B5).

  When the user operates the mouse 342 to move the mouse pointer MP onto the desired movement path CS and clicks, the user's movement state CT at the clicked point is displayed. In FIG. 9B, “PR: 120 BPM pitch: 120 steps: 600 steps speed: 5 km / h” is displayed in the movement state CT. This indicates that the pulse rate is “120 bpm”, the step count (pitch) per unit time is “120 steps”, the total number of steps from the departure point is “600” steps, and the speed is “5 km / h”. ing.

In FIG. 9B, the position information of the point clicked by the user is (139 ° 38′16 ″, 35 ° 28′27 ″), and the CPU 10 records the passing position closest to the position information. A record including (139 ° 38′17 ″, 35 ° 28′27 ″) is read out. The passing position, pulse rate, pitch, number of steps, and speed of this record are displayed as the moving state CT.
Here, in the first embodiment, various measurements are performed while outputting the radio broadcast received by pressing the radio switch 920d. However, only various measurements may be performed without outputting the radio broadcast. Good.

  As described above, according to the first embodiment, in the headphone-type device 1 worn by the user, the current position, speed, pulse rate, step count, and pitch are acquired and calculated every measurement time interval, and the movement history data 202 is accumulated. Is stored and transferred to the personal computer 3. Thus, the user can easily record various data representing the running or walking (moving) state only by wearing the headphone device 1 without being aware of it.

  Further, the personal computer 3 displays a map image, and based on the movement history data 202, displays the travel route that the user has traveled on the map image. When a screen designation operation is detected, the speed, pulse rate, step count, and pitch at a point on the designated movement route are read from the movement history data 314 and displayed. Thereby, the user can confirm not only the route on which the user has moved on the map, but also the contents of various data representing the running or walking (moving) state on the route.

  The screen specifying operation has been described as being performed by clicking the mouse 342. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a touch panel is integrally formed on the display unit 350, and a position is specified with a touch pen. Alternatively, the position may be designated by directly inputting the latitude and the route.

  In addition, the movement state CT including the speed, the pulse rate, the number of steps, and the pitch has been described as being displayed. However, the present invention is not limited to these data, and for example, based on the passing position stored in the movement history data 314. Alternatively, the movement distance may be calculated and displayed in the contents of the movement state CT. Alternatively, the pulse rate at rest may be stored in advance, the pulse rate and the maximum pulse rate during running or walking (movement) may be detected, exercise intensity may be calculated, and included in the content of the moving state CT.

  In addition, although it has been described that the speed is calculated in the headphone device 1, it is needless to say that the same effect can be obtained by calculating the speed in the personal computer 3.

  Also, the speed, pulse rate, number of steps and pitch are read from the movement history data 314 and displayed as the movement state CT. However, based on the movement history data 314, the progress of speed, pulse rate, number of steps and pitch is graphed. It may be displayed.

  Further, although the personal computer 3 has been described as an application example of the movement history display device, the present invention is not limited to this and can be changed as appropriate. For example, the present invention can be applied to electronic devices such as a car navigation device, a personal computer, and a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant).

[Second Embodiment]
Next, a second embodiment in which the ear-worn electronic device of the present invention is applied to the headphone device 1 will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. The headphone-type device 1 in the second embodiment has a configuration in which the flash ROM 20 and the RAM 30 in FIG. 3 are replaced with the flash ROM 22 and the RAM 32 shown in FIG. Note that in the second embodiment, the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted.

  FIG. 10A is a diagram showing the configuration of the flash ROM 22. As shown in the figure, the flash ROM 22 stores a movement position advice program 220, movement position advice data 222, and a movement history 228.

  The movement position advice program 220 is a program for realizing the movement position advice processing according to the second embodiment. Specifically, the CPU 10 starts the movement position advice process by reading the movement position advice program 220 from the flash ROM 22 and developing it in the RAM 32.

  The movement position advice data 222 includes music data 224 and course data 226. The music data 224 is a series of music data. The CPU 10 can control to speed up or slow down the music playback output by controlling the data playback speed of the music data 224. FIG. 11A is a conceptual diagram of the music data 224. The figure shows that the music data 224 is data for outputting 30 minutes of music.

  The course data 226 is a data table that stores a schedule elapsed time and a schedule position in association with each other. The scheduled elapsed time is a scheduled time after leaving the departure point, and is set at every measurement time interval. The scheduled position is position information of a scheduled point that has arrived after the scheduled elapsed time.

  FIG. 11B is a diagram showing an example of the data configuration of the course data 226. According to the figure, the course data 226 stores a record in which a scheduled position is associated with a scheduled elapsed time. For example, the scheduled position (139 ° 38′17 ”, 35 ° 28′27”) is associated with the elapsed time “0:05:00”. This represents that the user has arrived at a point of (139 ° 38'17 ", 35 ° 28'27") after 5 minutes from the departure of the user. If the user runs or walks as scheduled and arrives at a point (139 ° 38′17 ″, 35 ° 28′27 ″) 5 minutes after departure, the data position DP of the music data 224 (FIG. 11 ( The music based on the music data in a) is output.

  Here, the planned position of the top record of the course data 226 is position information of the departure point, and the planned position of the end record is position information of the arrival point. When the arrival point is reached as scheduled, the music reproduction output based on the music data 224 is completed simultaneously with the arrival.

  The moving position advice data 222 may be downloaded from the personal computer 3 via the communication device 60 and stored in the flash ROM 22.

  The movement history 228 is a data table for storing the elapsed time and the passing position in association with each other. The elapsed time is an elapsed time after the user leaves the departure point, and is set in advance at every measurement time interval. The passing position is a current position at the time of elapsed time, and is set by the CPU 10. FIG. 11C is a diagram illustrating an example of the data configuration of the movement history 228. According to the figure, records in which passage time is associated with elapsed time are stored cumulatively. For example, the passage time (139 ° 38′15 ”, 35 ° 28′22”) is associated with the elapsed time “0:05:00”. This indicates that the user has passed a point of latitude (139 ° 38'15 ") and longitude (35 ° 28'22") 5 minutes after the departure.

  FIG. 10B is a diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of the RAM 32. According to the figure, the RAM 32 stores a current position 320, a current elapsed time 322, a scheduled movement distance 324, a total movement distance 326, and a distance difference 328.

  The current position 320 is the current position detected by the position detection unit 110 and is changed as needed. The current elapsed time 322 is the elapsed time from the departure from the departure point to the present, and is timed by the CPU 10 and updated as needed.

  The scheduled movement distance 324 is a distance that the user moves from the departure point to a scheduled position corresponding to the scheduled elapsed time in the scheduled elapsed time, and is calculated based on the course data 226. Specifically, the CPU 10 sequentially reads the planned positions of the records from the first record of the course data 226 to the same scheduled elapsed time as the current elapsed time 322, and calculates the linear distance between the scheduled positions of adjacent records. Then, the total of the calculated linear distances is stored in the RAM 32 as the scheduled movement distance 324.

  The total movement distance 326 is a distance that the user has moved from the departure point to the current position 320 and is calculated based on the movement history 228. Specifically, the CPU 10 reads a passing position from the first record of the movement history 228 to a record including the current position 320, and calculates a linear distance between the passing positions of adjacent records. Then, the total of the calculated linear distances is stored in the RAM 32 as the total movement distance 226.

  The distance difference 328 is a value obtained by subtracting the total movement distance 326 from the planned movement distance 324. The CPU 10 calculates the azimuth of the planned position closest to the current position 320 based on the positional relationship allowance condition whether or not the distance difference 328 is greater than or equal to a predetermined value, and outputs the sound. I do. Specifically, if the absolute value of the distance difference 328 is greater than or equal to a predetermined value and is positive, the CPU 10 determines that the current position 320 is the departure point from the planned position closest to the current position 320 at the current elapsed time 322. It discriminate | determines that it is near, accelerates | stimulates the reproduction speed (tempo) of music, and outputs the direction and distance difference 328 of the said planned position on the basis of the present position 320 as a sound. If the absolute value of the distance difference 328 is greater than or equal to the predetermined value and is negative, the CPU 10 is closer to the arrival point than the planned position closest to the current position 320 at the current elapsed time 322. And the music reproduction speed (tempo) is delayed, and the direction of the current position 320 and the distance difference 328 with reference to the scheduled position are output as audio. By controlling the music playback speed (tempo), the user can know whether the current position 320 is closer to the starting point or the arrival point than the planned position closest to the current position 320. The running pace can be adjusted. Further, the azimuth and distance to the planned position closest to the current position 320 can be determined by the voice output of the azimuth and distance difference 328.

  Next, a specific operation of the movement position advice process of the headphone device 1 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  When the CPU 10 detects that a predetermined operation (for example, an operation of pressing the mode switch 920a) is performed by the user, the CPU 10 reads the movement position advice program 220 from the flash ROM 22 and develops it in the RAM 32 to start the movement position advice processing. To do.

  When the movement position advice process is started, the CPU 10 first determines whether or not a movement history copy operation has been detected (step C1). The movement history copy operation is an operation for storing the movement history 228 as the course data 226, for example, an operation for selecting a copy mode with the mode switch 920a. By this operation, the user can copy the movement history 228 that is a record at the time of the previous movement to the course data 226 and use the movement history 228 for the current running or walking.

  When CPU 10 detects a movement history copy operation (step C1: Yes), CPU 10 updates and stores movement history 228 as course data 226 of movement position advice data 222 (step C3). Specifically, the elapsed time of the movement history 228 is stored in the scheduled elapsed time of the course data 226, and the passage position of the movement history 228 is stored in the scheduled time of the course data 226.

  When the movement history copy operation is not detected in step C1 (step C1: No), or after the process of step C3, the CPU 10 starts playing music at a normal playback speed based on the music data 224 (step S1). C7). Then, the elapsed time is started and the current elapsed time 322 is updated as needed (step C9).

  The CPU 10 waits until the current elapsed time 322 reaches a measurement time interval (for example, an interval of 5 minutes) (step C11), and if it is determined that the measurement time interval has come (step C11: Yes), the current time The elapsed time 322 is read and stored in the movement history 228 (step C13).

  Then, the CPU 10 causes the position detection unit 110 to receive a GPS signal to measure the current position, stores the current position in the RAM 32 as the current position 320, and also passes the current position 320 in accordance with the elapsed time stored in step C13. Is stored in the movement history 228 (step C15).

  Next, it is determined whether or not the current position 320 is an arrival point (step C17). Specifically, the last record of the course data 226 is read, and it is determined whether or not the planned position of the record matches the current position 320 (step C17). When it is determined that the current position 320 is the arrival point (step C17: Yes), the CPU 10 ends the movement position advice process.

  When it is determined that the current position 320 is not the arrival point (step C17: No), the CPU 10 reads the planned position up to the current elapsed time 322 from the course data 226, calculates the planned moving distance 324, and stores it in the RAM 32 ( Step C19). Next, the total movement distance 326 is calculated based on the movement history 228 and stored in the RAM 32 (step C21).

  Then, the distance difference 328 is calculated, and it is determined whether or not the absolute value of the distance difference 328 is a predetermined value (for example, 50 m) or more (step C23). When it is determined that the value is not equal to or greater than the predetermined value (step C23: No), the CPU 10 performs music reproduction output at a normal reproduction speed (equal speed) (step C25), and proceeds to the process of step C11.

  If it is determined that the distance is equal to or greater than the predetermined value (step C23: Yes), it is determined whether the value of the distance difference 328 is a positive value or a negative value (step C27). If it is determined that the value of the distance difference 328 is a positive value (step C27: Yes), the music data 224 is played back at a predetermined speed (for example, a playback speed increased to a normal playback speed). Output is performed (step C29). Then, the azimuth of the planned position corresponding to the planned elapsed time that matches the current elapsed time 322 is calculated using the current position 320 as a reference (step C31).

  If it is determined that the value of the distance difference 328 is not a positive value (step C27: No), the playback speed of playback of the music data 224 is reduced by a predetermined speed (for example, playback with the normal playback speed reduced to 50%). Reproduction output is performed with a slower speed (step C33). Then, the azimuth of the current position 320 is calculated with reference to the scheduled position corresponding to the scheduled elapsed time that coincides with the current elapsed time 322 (step C35).

  After the process of step C31 or C35, the CPU 10 outputs a sound based on the calculated azimuth and the distance difference 328 (step C37), and proceeds to the process of step C11.

  FIG. 13 is a diagram for describing a usage example when the headphone device 1 according to the second embodiment is used.

  As shown in FIG. 13, the user walks on the moving route CS from the departure point ST to the arrival point GL. In the course data 226 of FIG. 11B, a planned elapsed time and a planned position that pass through each point every five minutes as shown in FIG. 13 are stored.

  The user wears the headphone device 1 and starts from the departure point ST and travels or walks to the arrival point GL. Meanwhile, music based on the music data 224 is reproduced and output at a normal reproduction speed from the left and right driver units (corresponding to step C7 in FIG. 12).

  For example, assuming that the user's walking speed is slow and the vehicle passes the passing point PT1 5 minutes after departure, the driver unit outputs a voice saying “the scheduled passing point is 130 meters ahead and north-northwest”. At the same time, the playback speed of the music being played back is increased. At this time, the CPU 10 measures the current position 320 as (139 ° 38′15 ″, 35 ° 28′22 ″), and the elapsed time and the passing position are stored in the movement history 228 as shown in FIG. 11B. . Then, the distance difference 328 is calculated as “−130 m” based on the course data 226 and the movement history 228. Since the calculated distance difference 328 is not positive, the CPU 10 increases the music playback speed. Further, the direction of the passing point PT1 with respect to the planned position PT3 is calculated as “north-northwest”, and a voice “scheduled passing point is 130 m ahead and north-northwest” is output (FIG. 12 steps C23 → C27 → C29 to C37).

    In addition, when the user walks at a high speed and passes through the passing point PT5 five minutes after the departure, the driver unit outputs a voice “going 100 m north-northwest from the planned passing point”. At this time, the distance difference 328 is calculated as “+100 m”. Since the calculated distance difference 328 is positive, the music reproduction speed is delayed by the CPU 10. Also, the direction of the planned position PT3 is calculated as “north-northwest” with reference to the passing point PT5 that is the current position, and a voice “going 100 m north-northwest from the scheduled passing point” is output. (Corresponding to steps C23 → C27 → C33 to C37 in FIG. 12).

  In addition, when the user wants to run or walk with reference to the route of the previous run or walk (movement), the previous move history 228 is made the course data 226 by performing a move history copy operation. Can do. Thereby, the pace at the time of the last driving | running | working or walking (movement) can be made into a reference | standard, and the pace of driving | running | working or walking can be adjusted.

  As described above, according to the second embodiment, the current position is measured at every measurement time interval, and the measured current position is stored in the movement history 228 in association with the elapsed time. Then, the planned movement distance 324 and the total movement distance 326 are calculated, and further, a distance difference 328 is calculated. If the distance difference 328 is greater than or equal to a predetermined value and a positive value, the CPU 10 increases the music playback speed, and outputs the azimuth of the planned position and the distance difference 328 based on the current position 320. If the distance difference 328 is greater than or equal to the predetermined value and is a negative value, the music playback speed is slowed down, and the azimuth of the current position 320 and the distance difference 328 based on the scheduled position are output as audio. Thus, when the music playback speed is increased, the user can know that the current position 320 is closer to the departure point and is behind the schedule, and the pace of walking or running can be adjusted according to the music playback speed. The speed can be adjusted by raising the speed. Also, if the music playback speed is slowed down, it can be known that the current position 320 is closer to the arrival point and is ahead of schedule, and the pace of walking or running is reduced according to the music playback speed. Thus, the speed can be adjusted.

  Further, since the azimuth and distance of the planned position close to the current position with reference to the current position can be confirmed by voice, it is possible to easily know the azimuth and distance to be advanced from the current position.

  In addition, although it demonstrated as controlling the reproduction speed for predetermined speed by the positive / negative of the distance difference 328, it is not restricted to this, A reproduction speed is calculated based on the distance difference 328, and the magnitude | size of the distance difference 328 is shown. Proportional reproduction speed control may be performed. For example, if the current position is significantly behind the schedule and is closer to the departure point, the playback speed is increased by a speed proportional to the distance. Also, if the current position is ahead of schedule and is from the arrival point, the playback speed is delayed by a speed proportional to the distance. Specifically, the playback speed when the distance difference 328 is “+500 m” or more is set as the upper limit, and this upper limit is set as a double speed of the normal playback speed. Then, the high speed ratio of the reproduction speed is determined in proportion to the distance difference 328 up to “+500 m”. Further, the playback speed when the distance difference 328 is “−500 m” or less is set as the lower limit, and this lower limit is set as 50% of the normal playback speed. Then, the deceleration rate of the reproduction speed is determined in proportion to the distance difference 328 up to “−500 m”.

  In addition, although it has been described that the planned travel distance 324 is calculated based on the course data 226 and the total travel distance 326 is calculated based on the travel history 228, the planned travel distance 324 is based on the distance of the route displayed on the map image. The total movement distance 326 may be calculated. For example, in the case of the total movement distance 326, the route from the departure point to the current position 320 is searched from the map image, and the total movement distance 326 is calculated from the searched route.
