  In step S15, the position determination unit 261 grasps the room selected by the user based on the input signal related to the contact position received from the display unit 21, and sets the position for causing the user to select one position in the room. A screen 64 (see FIG. 9) is displayed on the display unit 21. Note that a floor plan 641 selected by the user is displayed on the position setting screen 64, and the user touches one position in the floor plan 641 displayed on the position setting screen 64. , One touched position can be selected as its own standing position.

  Next, the position determination unit 261 determines whether or not the user has selected his / her standing position (step S16). Specifically, it is determined whether or not an input signal relating to a position touched by the user on the position setting screen 64 (that is, a contact position) is received from the display unit 21. If the input signal related to the contact position has not been received from the display unit 21, it is determined that the standing position has not yet been selected (that is, NO is determined in step S16), and the input signal related to the contact position is received. Until this is done, the process of step S16 is repeated. On the other hand, when an input signal related to the contact position is received from the display unit 21, it is determined that the standing position has been selected (that is, YES is determined in step S16), and the process proceeds to step S17.

  In step S17, the position determination unit 261 determines the three-dimensional coordinate position in the user's living space based on the input signal regarding the contact position received from the display unit 21, and ends the position determination operation. Here, the position coordinates (X and Y coordinates) of the user in the two-dimensional direction are obtained based on the contact position received from the display unit 21 (the position touched by the user in the two-dimensional floor plan 641), and the height direction The position coordinates (Z-coordinate) are fixed to 1600 mm assuming that the user's height is 1600 mm. The Z coordinate may be the height of the user stored in advance in the terminal device 20.

  When the three-dimensional coordinate position in the user's living space is determined, as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 4, whether or not the photographing unit 23 has photographed after the above-described position determining unit 261 determines the user's three-dimensional coordinate position. Is determined (step S2). Specifically, after the position determination unit 261 determines the user's three-dimensional coordinate position, it is determined whether an electrical signal is received from the imaging unit 23. After the position determination unit 261 determines the three-dimensional coordinate position of the user, if no electrical signal has been received from the imaging unit 23, it is determined that the imaging unit 23 has not yet performed imaging (step S2). The process of step S2 is repeated until an electrical signal is received from the imaging unit 23. On the other hand, when an electrical signal is received from the imaging unit 23 after the position determination unit 261 determines the user's three-dimensional coordinate position, the process proceeds to step S3 (acquisition step).

  In step S <b> 3, the acquisition unit 262 creates an image of the subject photographed by the photographing unit 23 based on the electrical signal transmitted from the photographing unit 23. Furthermore, the input signal transmitted from the detection unit 24 is received, and the direction of the photographing lens 231 (that is, the photographing direction) when the photographing unit 23 photographs the living space is determined. And it transfers to the process of step S4 (member determination step).

  In step S4, as described above, the member determining unit 263 images the living space from the three-dimensional coordinate position of the user determined in step S1 with the shooting lens 231 facing the shooting direction acquired in step S3. The three-dimensional coordinates of each member stored in the position information storage unit 251 are the members present within the living space that can be photographed by the photographing unit 23 and the display position of the member on the display unit 21. Determine based on position. Then, the process proceeds to step S5 (first display control step).

  In step S5, the first display control unit 264 displays the video acquired in step S3 on the display unit 21 (LCD module 213) as shown in the video display screens 65 and 66 in FIG. 10 and FIG. About each member determined by S4, the icon (icon which added the name of the said member) I1, I2, I3, I4 showing the said member is superimposed on an image | video, and is displayed on the display position of the said member. At this time, if the member determined in step 4 is a member that consumes energy, for example, lighting or an air conditioner, the current energy consumption of the member is acquired from the energy management device 40, and the acquired energy consumption As shown in the video display screen 65 of FIG. 10, the amount is added and displayed on icons I1 and I2 representing the members. Then, the process proceeds to step S6.

  In step S6, it is determined whether or not to end the operation of the present housing information providing method. Specifically, it is determined whether or not an input signal relating to a location touched by the user (that is, a contact position) is received from the display unit 21 on the video display screens 65 and 66 or a maintenance information screen 67 shown in FIG. If the received input signal indicates that the user has touched the end button E on the video display screens 65 and 66 or the maintenance information display screen 67, it is determined that the operation of the housing information providing method is to be ended. Then (that is, it is determined as YES in step S6), and the operation of the housing information providing method is finished. On the other hand, when the input signal related to the portion touched by the user on the video display screens 65 and 66 or the maintenance information display screen 67 (that is, the contact position) is not received from the display unit 21, or the received input signal is displayed as a video. If it does not indicate that the user has touched the end button E on the screens 65 and 66 or the maintenance information display screen 67, it is determined that the operation of the housing information providing method is to be continued (that is, NO in step S6). The process proceeds to step S7 (second display control step).

  In step S7, it is determined whether or not one icon I1, I2, I3, I4 displayed on the video display screens 65, 66 has been selected. Specifically, it is determined whether or not an input signal related to a location touched by the user on the video display screens 65 and 66 (that is, a contact position) is received from the display unit 21, and the received input signal is the video display screen. If it indicates that the user has touched the icons I1, I2, I3, I4 on 65, 66, it is determined that the user has selected one icon (ie, YES is determined in step S7). And the process proceeds to step S8. On the other hand, when an input signal related to a location touched by the user on the video display screens 65 and 66 (that is, a contact position) is not received from the display unit 21, or the received input signal is displayed on the video display screens 65 and 66. If it does not indicate that the user has touched the icons I1, I2, I3, I4, it is determined that the user has not selected one icon (ie, NO is determined in step S7), and the step The process proceeds to S9.

  In step S8, the second display control unit 265 recognizes and recognizes the icons I1, I2, I3, and I4 selected by the user on the video display screens 65 and 66 based on the input signal received from the display unit 21. The member information providing server 10 (web page storage unit 11) indicated by the URL (see reference numeral 57 in FIG. 2) stored in the position information storage unit 251 in association with the members represented by the icons I1, I2, I3, and I4. Connect to the web page W via the communication unit 22. Then, the maintenance information display screen 67 including the web page W of the connection destination is displayed on the display unit 21 (LCD module 213) (see FIG. 12). Then, the process proceeds to step S9.

  As described above, the web page W displayed on the maintenance information display screen 67 shows the name of the manufacturer (manufacturer) of the member and the model number. For example, the member inquiry button L1, the maintenance method button L2, and the like. A consumable arrangement button L3 is provided.
