(First embodiment of the present invention)
Hereinafter, a beauty system according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
In each of the drawings, a beauty system 1 according to the present embodiment is held in a user's hand, and a beauty device 10 capable of imparting a predetermined beauty effect to the user's skin from an operating portion, and the beauty device 10 Mobile communication terminal 90 as the display terminal for displaying guidance information related to the handling of the mobile phone.

  The beauty device 10 includes a main body 11 that is held by a user, a head 12 that is disposed near an end of the main body 11 and that is in a predetermined operating state related to beauty on the skin (skin) 70; Auxiliary electrode portion 14 disposed in the grip portion of the main body portion 11 by the user, and adjustment control of the energization state between the head portion 12 and the auxiliary electrode portion 14 disposed in the main body portion 11 via the user. And a communication means 17 for communication with the external mobile communication terminal 90.

  The main body portion 11 is arranged with the head portion 12 protruding toward one end, while the predetermined length range on the other end side is suitable for the user to hold it by hand during use. The grip portion 11a has a thickness, and is formed in a shape in which the longitudinal direction of the grip portion 11a and the front direction of the head portion 12 are inclined by a predetermined angle. A battery (not shown) as an electric circuit or a power source is arranged. A cable for wired connection with the mobile communication terminal 90 may be coupled to the other end of the main body 11 that is the longitudinal end of the grip 11a.

  In addition, on the front side of the main body 11 where the head portion 12 of the grip portion 11a is provided, an operation portion 11b that switches on / off the cosmetic operation, the type of operation, strength, etc. in response to a user's input operation is disposed. The And the auxiliary electrode part 14 which consists of an electroconductive member and was connected to the control part 16 is arrange | positioned in the side surface of the holding part 11a in the main-body part 11, and when a user hold | grips the holding part 11a, the finger | toe and auxiliary electrode part 14 will come into contact. Further, a ring-shaped holding portion (not shown) that holds a porous covering such as a cotton puff with respect to the head portion 12 is detachable around the head portion 12 in the main body portion 11. The main body 11 can also be provided with a built-in vibration source such as a vibrator so as to add vibration to the skin 70 along with the energization of the head 12 so as to enhance the cosmetic effect.

  In addition to the power switch 15a for switching the power ON / OFF in response to a user's input operation, the operation unit 11b has a mode switch 15b for switching the type of operation of the head unit 12, and a strength for switching the strength of the energizing current. A changeover switch 15c and the like are provided.

The head portion 12 is made of a conductive material such as metal and has a convex shape, specifically, a substantially elliptic frustum shape having a gently curved surface that can be brought into surface contact with the skin 70, with the top surface at the tip. As shown in FIG. 1, the main body 11 is arranged so as to protrude from the front side of one end of the main body 11. The main body 11 is in contact with the skin 70 directly or via a porous covering, and the skin 70 is energized including ion introduction. A cosmetic operation is performed.
The head unit 12 is electrically connected to the control unit 16 in the main body unit 11 and can be energized via the user's body with the auxiliary electrode unit 14 in the gripping unit 11a. is there.

  For energization, a voltage is applied between the head unit 12 and the auxiliary electrode unit 14 by the control unit 16 so that energization can occur, and the solution is impregnated directly or with a liquid such as lotion containing an electrolyte component. When the head portion 12 comes into contact with the skin 70 such as the face and the auxiliary electrode portion 14 comes into contact with the palm or the finger of the hand having the grip portion 11a through the porous covering, the head portion 12 and the auxiliary electrode portion 14 are contacted. Is a mechanism that is energized through the user's body. In this case, the human body becomes a conductor. The head portion 12 and the auxiliary electrode portion 14 are sufficiently separated from each other, so that a hand or the like touching the auxiliary electrode portion 14 is not in contact with the head portion 12 and no current is generated.

  With the energization of the skin 70 in contact with the head portion 12, the ionic active ingredient contained in the liquid such as lotion that has been applied to the surface of the skin in advance or has been infused into the porous coating is controlled. This is a mechanism capable of executing ion introduction (iontophoresis) introduced into the skin by ion movement based on current from the unit 16. Since the ion introduction method itself is known, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

  Further, as cleansing of the skin 70, it is possible to obtain a state in which a dirt component such as a charged waste product is transferred from the skin side to the head portion 12 side by energization and is taken into the porous covering held on the head portion surface.

  The head portion 12 is desirably made of a material that is stable with respect to energization, such as titanium, in terms of ion introduction and the like. In addition to using metal such as gold in addition to titanium, it may have a structure formed by attaching a conductor such as metal to the surface of an elastic body such as conductive resin, conductive rubber, or rubber, or arranging a thin film of conductor. it can.

  The control unit 16 is built in the main body unit 11 and controls energization between the head unit 12 and the auxiliary electrode unit 14 in response to a user's input operation to the operation unit 11b. This control unit 16 sets a mode of energization operation for each cosmetic use, for example, an iontophoresis mode in which an active ingredient such as lotion penetrates deep into the skin, and harmful components and waste products accumulated in the skin. There are a cleansing mode for removing, a massage mode for switching the electrode polarity when energized to promote blood circulation of the skin, and the like.

  Switching between these energization modes is performed based on a user input operation to the mode switch 15b of the operation unit 11b. When the user first operates the mode change switch 15b immediately after the beauty apparatus 10 is turned on, the control unit 16 is in a state where one of a plurality of modes can be executed.

  Further, the control unit 16 adjusts the strength of the current flowing through the user's skin by energization when the head unit 12 and the auxiliary electrode unit 14 are energized corresponding to each operation mode. May be. In this case, the adjustment is performed based on a user input operation to the strength changeover switch 15c separately provided in the operation unit 11b.

  The control unit 16 is a computer having a CPU, a memory, an input / output interface, and the like as its hardware configuration, and is a mechanism that causes the computer to operate as a control means by a program stored in the memory or the like. The computer constituting the control unit 16 is usually mounted as a microcomputer integrally formed with a CPU, a memory, a ROM, and the like.

  In addition, the control unit 16 detects the state in which the head unit 12 is in contact with the skin 70 and can be energized between the head unit 12 and the auxiliary electrode unit 14 via a body or the like using a pulse, and the energization related to the beauty It is the structure provided with the function to start or complete | finish. Specifically, when a pulse signal of a predetermined frequency is output from one of the two electrodes of the head unit 12 and the auxiliary electrode unit 14 and the skin 70 and the head unit 12 are in contact with each other, the human body passes through the human body. If the detection signal of the pulse signal at the other electrode satisfies a predetermined condition for eliminating false detections, it is determined that the head portion is in contact with the skin. ing. Thus, in order to determine the energization possible state, it can be determined that each electrode is in contact with the skin because the pulse output from one electrode is detected by the other electrode. In addition, the case where this pulse is no longer detected by the other electrode can be determined as an unenergized state. Then, energization related to beauty is stopped when energization is impossible, and energization is resumed when energization is possible again.

  Whether a detection pulse is output to the head unit 12 or the auxiliary electrode unit 14 depends on each mode, but the pulse output from one electrode passes through the human body to the other. It is necessary to drop the potential of the electrode on which the pulse is not output to the GND level so as to pass through the other electrode. For example, when a pulse is output from the head unit 12, the potential of the auxiliary electrode unit 14 is lowered to the GND level. On the other hand, when a pulse is output from the auxiliary electrode unit 14, the potential of the head unit 12 is lowered to the GND level.

  In addition, when detecting a contact between the head unit 12 and the skin, when the main body unit 11 has a built-in vibrator, the control unit 16 drives the vibrator, specifically, a vibrator driving motor or a piezoelectric element driving voltage, The contact state may be detected by utilizing the fact that the current and the number of rotations of the motor differ depending on whether the head unit 12 and the skin are in contact with each other.

  In addition to the basic operation control corresponding to the operation instruction input by the operation of the operation unit 11b by the user, the control unit 16 performs communication for transmitting predetermined data to the mobile communication terminal 90 by the communication unit 17. Also controls.

  When the head unit 12 is activated based on the operation of the operation unit 11 b in the beauty device 10 while the beauty communication device operation guidance program is being executed on the mobile communication terminal 90, the control unit 16 Data indicating the state is transmitted to the mobile communication terminal 90 by the communication means 17 so that the display device of the mobile communication terminal 90 can perform guidance display according to the state of the beauty apparatus 10.

The communication unit 17 is disposed inside the main body unit 11 and receives data related to treatment content and data related to execution of treatment transmitted from the mobile communication terminal 90 based on control by the control unit 16. Data relating to the state of the device 10 is transmitted to the mobile communication terminal 90. Communication with the portable communication terminal 90 is performed as wireless communication according to IEEE 802.11 series or IEEE 802.15 series standard systems, for example.
Note that communication with the mobile communication terminal 90 may be wired communication by direct connection via a cable.

  The mobile communication terminal 90 includes a display device 91 and an input device 92, and is a known mobile phone, so-called smartphone, PDA (personal digital assistant) or the like having a function of connecting to and communicating with a mobile phone network and / or a data communication network. Among them, the application program can be executed on the terminal, and the communication target (beauty device 10) is different from the wireless communication means 93 for connection to the mobile phone network and / or the data communication network. The communication connection means 94 which communicates by direct wireless communication or wired connection, and the memory | storage part 95 which can hold | maintain the data concerning the operation guidance display content of the beauty apparatus 10 are included. The mobile communication terminal 90 has a touch panel display device 91 and the display device also serves as the input device 92.

  The mobile communication terminal 90 performs guidance display related to how the beauty device 10 is operated by the user in a state where the user can visually recognize the display device 91 by executing the application program for displaying the operation guidance of the beauty device 10. At the same time, it has a function of receiving information from the beauty device as needed and executing a status display of the beauty device. In this regard, in the beauty device 10, the control unit 16 that has received data indicating the state of the head unit 12 or the like transmits the data to the mobile communication terminal 90 via the communication unit 17, and the mobile communication terminal 90 receives the data. By receiving and displaying based on the data. Note that the mobile communication terminal 90 displays an image serving as an operation switch, for example, an image of a push button switch, in a part of the display area of the display device 91 by executing a guide display program. When an operation input from the user for this display is accepted, operations on the mobile communication terminal 90 such as adjustment of the display state can be performed.

  When the guidance display program of the mobile communication terminal 90 is activated, the mobile communication terminal 90 waits for transmission from the beauty device 10 to be communicated. On the other hand, when the beauty apparatus 10 is activated, the beauty apparatus 10 is in a state of performing transmission toward the mobile communication terminal 90 that is a communication target. As a result, when the program of the mobile communication terminal 90 is activated and the beauty apparatus 10 is activated, communication between the two is established regardless of the start of the activation, and guidance display is possible on the display device 91 of the mobile communication terminal 90. Become.

  The guidance display by the mobile communication terminal 90 displays the content corresponding to the display device 91 every time the status of the beauty device 10 changes by the user's switch operation or moving the device. When a plurality of modes are continuously executed as a course in the beauty device 10, in principle, the display corresponds to the basic operation time for each mode, and is sequentially displayed in the order of execution of each mode. In the beauty device 10, the state in which the head unit 12 is in contact with the target skin 70 is detected by the control unit 16 from the change in the detection signal, and the operation state is shifted to. At this time, information related to the state change is transmitted from the control unit 16 to the mobile communication terminal 90 through the communication unit 17, and the mobile communication terminal 90 uses this as a trigger to change the display state on the display device 91 to the state change of the beauty device 10. Change to the guidance display screen.

  Note that the mobile communication terminal 90 achieves guidance display in a manner different from storing and executing the program entity on the terminal side, that is, the mobile communication terminal 90 accesses an external network 100 website. When the execution of the guidance display of the beauty device is selected, the predetermined server 101 is accessed to shift to the guidance display state. When the state change occurs on the beauty device side, the guidance information is temporarily stored from the server 101 each time. The guidance may be displayed while downloading.

  When the beauty device 10 has a plurality of functions (modes) such as cleansing and ion introduction, for example, selection is made when any of the functions is selected by the user's operation on the beauty device 10. The information related to the selected function is sent from the control unit 16 to the mobile communication terminal 90, and the mobile communication terminal 90 relates to the guide display about the selected function from the guide display information recorded in advance based on the information. Information is read out and operation guidance for the selected function is sequentially displayed. In addition, a function selection screen is prepared in the mobile communication terminal 90, and a user input operation on the mobile communication terminal side is performed. Thus, the same function as that selected by the beauty apparatus 10 may be selected and guidance display regarding the function may be performed. In addition, on the function selection screen prepared in the mobile communication terminal 90, the user selects a function by an input operation prior to the operation on the beauty device 10, and the beauty apparatus 10 side according to the selected function. From the stage of the operation in which the user selects the function, guidance display is performed on the mobile communication terminal 90, so that the user can perform a smooth function selection operation on the beauty device 10.

  In the display that guides the operation content of the beauty device 10 on the display device 91 in the mobile communication terminal 90, the input device 92 can select any one of the display designs corresponding to the user's preference. The display design can be selected and execution of the display design can be instructed, and the guidance function of the mobile communication terminal 90 can be made more user-friendly and easy to use.

  The display content on the display device 91 of the mobile communication terminal 90 is text, a still image, a moving image, or the like, which explains the content of the operation according to the situation and guides the user so that it can be appropriately operated. In particular, as the content of the guidance display, the specific position of the skin to be approached or brought into contact with the head unit 12 of the beauty device 10 or the direction in which the head unit 12 is directed, such as the approaching or contacting the head unit 12 The user understands that it is shown schematically using figures such as circles and arrows in an image with a background of a skin area within a predetermined range around the position, preferably an area including characteristic parts such as eyes and nose. It is easy and preferable. It is also possible to show the user how to move the beauty device by animation or the like (see FIG. 6).

  The portable communication terminal 90 may output a guidance voice by a built-in voice output unit, and the operation guidance can be performed more easily and effectively in combination with the guidance display on the display device 91. It becomes.

  The information that triggers the change of the guidance display information so that the mobile communication terminal 90 can perform care according to various situations including the user by the beauty device 10 is based on the information transmitted from the beauty device. Not only the state change but also the skin part (cheek, chin, forehead, temples, nose circumference, etc.) and the user's skin condition (texture / spot distribution, etc.) Skin color, moisture state, etc.), beauty device usage (history of usage, output level, type of care used, etc.), personal data related to user's skin (age, gender, makeup used) Information on the environment in which the beauty device is used (season, weather conditions, current time, location), etc., and operations that enable the beauty device to operate in accordance with these. ,use To be a guide display, such as does. However, the execution content on the beauty device side can be appropriately adjusted by the user through the operation unit 11b of the beauty device 10.

  As a specific example, if the user uses the beauty apparatus 10 to display guidance instead of normal so that care is performed more carefully than usual, if the trigger is based on the skin site, for example, “(Effect "This part is difficult to communicate.) Carefully take care of this part." Further, if it is based on the state of the skin, for example, a guidance display such as “Skin is dry, so care for this part carefully” is displayed. Further, if it is based on personal data, for example, a guidance display such as “Let's care carefully for this part (because the effect is difficult to be transmitted due to aging)” is displayed. Further, if it is based on the use history, for example, a guidance display such as “Since the last time is omitted, let's care for this part carefully” is displayed. Furthermore, if it is based on the environment, for example, a guidance display such as “The air is very dry, so care for this part carefully” is displayed.

  In addition, the control unit 16 of the beauty device 10 can also detect the skin state with the initial output current and transmit information related to the skin state to the mobile communication terminal 90 via the communication unit 17. In the received mobile communication terminal 90, instead of a display that is adjusted according to the skin condition, that is, a display that prompts the user to perform a normal operation of the beauty apparatus 10, the beauty apparatus more suitable for the skin condition is displayed. It is also possible to perform guidance display that allows the user to perform the operation.

Next, the operation guidance display of the beauty device and the operation of the beauty device in the portable communication terminal in the beauty system according to the present embodiment will be described. As a premise, it is assumed that a guide display program is stored in advance in the mobile communication terminal 90 and is ready to be activated and executed on the mobile communication terminal 90 by a user operation. Further, the description will be made on the assumption that the function selected by the user from the plurality of functions when the beauty apparatus 10 has only one function and the plurality of functions when the beauty apparatus 10 has a plurality of functions is all ion introduction. . In addition, information related to various situations including the user is already acquired by the mobile communication terminal 90 except for information generated in the beauty device 10, and is assumed to be in a state reflected in the change of the guidance display content.
In addition, it is assumed that the beauty device 10 is in a state where the user holds the grip portion 11a and directs the head portion 12 toward the target skin site.

  When the user operates the mobile communication terminal 90 to activate and execute the operation guide display program for the beauty apparatus 10, first, the mobile communication terminal 90 waits for communication from the beauty apparatus that is the target of the operation guide display. Become. On the other hand, when the user turns on the beauty apparatus 10, the control unit 16 of the beauty apparatus 10 becomes communicable via the communication means 17. Data identification information related to the function of the beauty apparatus 10 from the communication means 17, etc. A predetermined signal including is transmitted. When the standby mobile communication terminal 90 receives a signal from the communication means 17 of the beauty apparatus 10, the control unit 16 of the beauty apparatus 10 identifies this signal as being communicated with the communication means 17 and Communication with the mobile communication terminal 90 is permitted and a communication connection is established.

  When the mobile communication terminal 90 establishes the connection, the display device 91 of the mobile communication terminal 90 displays that the connection with the beauty apparatus 10 has been established, and the operation guidance display to the user is actually started. Become. When wireless communication between a certain mobile communication terminal 90 and the beauty device 10 is established, the mobile communication terminal 90 accepts transmissions from other beauty devices until the processing related to the operation guidance is completed. Instead, the number of beauty devices that communicate with the mobile communication terminal 90 is limited to one to prevent crosstalk.

  The portable communication terminal 90 is allowed to accept data from the communication means 17 of the beauty apparatus 10 and waits for data transmission related to the state change of the beauty apparatus 10.

  Content that prompts the user to select a function to be used when the beauty apparatus 10 has a plurality of functions from the first received data, as the first guidance display, on the display device 91 as a first guidance display Is displayed (see FIG. 4). When the user according to this selects the function to be used by operating the operation unit 11b of the beauty apparatus, the control unit 16 determines the function as the state change in accordance with the state change of selection and use function determination. Data is sent to the mobile communication terminal 90.

  When this data is received by the mobile communication terminal 90, the mobile communication terminal 90 continues to use the head unit 12 to start the operation of the head unit 12 related to the beauty function selected here (ion introduction). A guidance screen is displayed that prompts the user to perform an operation for contacting a predetermined portion (start position) of the target skin 70 (see FIG. 5).

  When the beauty apparatus 10 has only a single function, the mobile communication terminal 90 displays the beauty function of the apparatus for the user (here, ion introduction) on the display device 91 as the first guidance display. In order to start the operation of the head unit 12 according to the above, a guidance screen is displayed that prompts the user to perform an operation of bringing the head unit 12 into contact with a predetermined portion (start position) of the target skin 70.

  At this point, the control unit 16 outputs a pulse signal for detection. However, in a state in which the head portion 12 is separated from the skin 70, since the circuit between the head portion 12 and the auxiliary electrode portion 14 is not closed via the body, there is no energization.

  The user visually recognizes the guidance screen of the portable communication terminal 90 that prompts the user to perform an operation for starting the operation of the head unit, and in response, moves the beauty device 10 that has been gripped, and moves the head unit 12 When the skin 70 is brought into contact with the skin 70 directly or through the porous covering body, energization through the body and the skin lotion becomes possible. In the beauty apparatus 10, the contact between the head unit 12 and the skin is controlled based on the reception of the pulse signal. 16 is detected. Along with the change in state of contact between the head unit 12 and the skin, data related to the start of skin contact as the state change is sent from the control unit 16 to the portable communication terminal 90. In addition, the control unit 16 shifts to an energized state related to ion introduction between the head unit 12 and the auxiliary electrode unit 14.

  When the mobile communication terminal 90 receives the skin contact start data, the mobile communication terminal 90 slowly moves the head part that is in contact with the skin to a predetermined position while maintaining the contact state. A guidance screen with contents prompting the user to perform an operation to be similarly performed on each face part is displayed (see FIG. 6).

  While the user moves the main body part 11 to bring the head part 12 into close contact with the skin 70, the control part 16 performs energization related to ion introduction between the head part 12 and the auxiliary electrode part 14, An ionic active ingredient (such as provitamin C) is transferred to the skin side, and the active ingredient quickly penetrates into the skin in a state where ions are easily penetrated by an electric current.

  The head unit 12 is moved from the skin 70 halfway by an operation of moving the beauty device 10 unintentionally different from the operation of moving the user's head unit 12 away from the skin 70 or the user's operation for greatly changing the ion introduction position. If it leaves | separates, the control part 16 will discriminate | determine that the head part 12 was released | separated from the skin 70 because the pulse accompanying electricity supply cannot be detected with the other electrode, and will stop the electricity supply concerning ion introduction. This state is also transmitted to the mobile communication terminal 90, and the mobile communication terminal 90 guides the head unit 12 to move while attached to the skin 70.

  When the energization is stopped, the control unit 16 outputs a detection signal again. When the user again brings the head unit 12 into close contact with the skin 70 directly or through the porous covering, it is possible to detect the energized state by receiving a detection signal, and the control unit 16 performs ion introduction. It transfers to the energization state concerned and resumes energization.

  When energization is resumed, the state is transmitted to the mobile communication terminal 90 again, and the mobile communication terminal 90 maintains the contact state of the head unit 12 that is in contact with the skin 70 with respect to the user as before. Slowly move to a predetermined position, and display a guidance screen with a content prompting the user to perform the same operation on each part of the face.

  When the time set as the ion introduction passes, the control unit 16 of the beauty apparatus 10 stops the energization related to the ion introduction. This state is also transmitted to the mobile communication terminal 90. The mobile communication terminal 90 notifies the end of the ion introduction by display, and displays a guidance to execute the next mode or to turn off the power.

  Correspondingly, when the user switches the operation mode to another in the operation unit 11b or when the power is turned off, the beauty device 10 shifts from the operation state related to ion introduction to a new mode or sets the power off state. It will be in the state which waits for the operation which sets a power supply to an ON state newly. In addition, when the beauty apparatus 10 shifts to a new mode, information indicating that is transmitted to the mobile communication terminal 90.

  In the portable communication terminal 90, when an operation for shifting to a new mode is performed in the beauty device 10, the operation guidance related to the new operation mode as the guidance display corresponding to the change is displayed in the same manner as described above. It will be. On the other hand, when the beauty apparatus 10 is turned off and communication with the beauty apparatus 10 is stopped, the portable communication terminal 90 displays an inquiry screen (including a switch image) as to whether or not to end the guidance display program. When the end is selected, the program is ended, and when it is selected not to end, the communication connection with a new beauty device is waited.

  As described above, the beauty system according to the present embodiment uses the mobile communication terminal 90 that is separate from the beauty device 10 to display a guidance for the operation of the beauty device 10, and performs, for example, a switch operation or the like in the beauty device 10. By changing the display content of the mobile communication terminal 90 according to the operation content such as the strength adjustment operation, the user can smoothly perform an appropriate operation according to the use situation according to the guidance display of the mobile communication terminal 90, and Operations that can achieve beauty effects can be easily performed without learning, and the maximum beauty effects can be achieved efficiently. Moreover, since how to handle can be displayed on the portable communication terminal 90, the instruction manual of the beauty apparatus 10 becomes unnecessary, and the introduction cost can be suppressed.

  In the beauty system according to the embodiment, the beauty device 10 has a function of ion introduction that allows a weak direct current to flow through the skin and infiltrate the ionized components deep into the skin, as well as removes dirt on the skin with positive ions. Although the example of the device having a plurality of functions such as ion cleansing to be dropped has been described, in addition to this, as a beauty device, LED light esthetics, germanium, etc. that give skin cell activation and thermal effect by applying LED light A roller esthetic that stimulates the skin with a roller attached with a massage, a cool esthetic that cools the skin and tightens the pores, or an ultrasonic esthetic that gives a massage effect and a thermal effect by ultrasound. It can also be set as the apparatus of a function, or can be set as the apparatus provided with two or more various functions concerning such beauty.

  In the beauty system according to the embodiment, as a display terminal for displaying guidance information related to the handling of the beauty device 10, a mobile phone network and / or a function other than a communication function with the beauty device 10, such as a so-called smartphone.

(Third embodiment of the present invention)
In the beauty system according to the second embodiment, the displacement detection means provided in the beauty device 10 or the portable communication terminal 90 and the movement amount of the head unit 12 caused by the movement of the beauty device 10 due to the handling of the user and The direction of movement is detected, and the current position of the head unit 12 is shown in the guidance display on the display device 91 based on the obtained data. In addition, the mobile communication terminal 90 simply displays the current position of the head unit 12. In addition to displaying the position, as a third embodiment, a new guidance display reflecting information related to the position and orientation of the head unit 12, specifically, a target site and head for operation related to the beauty of the beauty device Based on the current state of the head, as shown in FIG. 8, a new display of the position where the head 12 is directed to the next, the route to the head, the direction to which the head 12 should be directed next, etc. There, the user accordingly by urging to move the cosmetic device may be configured to allow operation of the cosmetic is actually correctly done target site.

  More specifically, in the mobile communication terminal 90, the body part of the user, for example, the face, that is the target of the operation related to the beauty of the beauty device 10 is used as the background (in this case, the actual user image by imaging) In addition to this, an image indicating the current position of the head unit 12, the position to which the head unit 12 is next directed, the route to the head, and the moving direction is displayed. By reflecting the information of the current head part position, if the user has positioned the head part at a location deviated from the skin position where the head part should be originally contacted, for example, the original correct head It is possible to guide the user by sequentially displaying images such as the target point and moving direction to move the head part to the position closest to the current position on the part moving path, and easily put the head part on the original moving path After that, the user can move the head portion along the original movement path as it is.

  In this way, by displaying information that appropriately guides the head part, reflecting the information such as the current head part position, the user can move the head part along the correct movement path to obtain an appropriate cosmetic effect. It is very easy to move the camera, and it is possible to easily and appropriately correct if it is moved by mistake, so that the beauty effect of the beauty apparatus can be exhibited more efficiently.

(Fourth embodiment of the present invention)
In the beauty system according to the third embodiment, information on the position of the head unit 12 of the beauty device 10 that is changed by a moving operation by the user as information related to the state change of the beauty device 10 is acquired, and the state change, That is, according to the position change, the guidance information display content changes, specifically, the target position where the head unit 12 of the beauty apparatus 10 is brought into contact and / or a state where a new display in the direction in which the head unit 12 is directed is sequentially performed. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and as a fourth embodiment, as a change in guidance information display content in accordance with a change in the state of the beauty device 10, a change in the position of the head unit 12 as a change in the state of the beauty device 10. In accordance with the above, among the skin parts in a predetermined range around the target position with which the head unit 12 is brought into contact, the skin region in which the head unit 12 has already been in contact is clearly displayed and sequentially displayed. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 9, the skin region where the skin portion in the predetermined range is initially displayed by replacing it with a display state different from the skin (for example, a single color fill state), and the head region 12 is contacted, Alternatively, the original replacement display may be changed to a display representing the original skin (for example, a captured image of the skin, an image obtained by processing and synthesizing the skin, or a display of a simplified skin color).

  In this case, since the skin portion to which the predetermined beauty effect has been applied by touching the head unit 12 can be seen at a glance from the display, the display is still changing while the user looks at the guidance display of the mobile communication terminal 90. It is very easy to move the beauty device efficiently by bringing the head portion 12 into contact with the non-existing portion.

  In addition, as a display method of clearly displaying the skin area in which the head unit 12 has already been in contact with the skin, the display method is different from the original skin, for example, the display is replaced with the single-color fill state. The display is not limited to skin display, and the initial state is normal skin display, and the skin region with which the head unit 12 is in contact is replaced with a display state different from the skin (for example, a single color fill state) and displayed. You can also

  In addition, a specific example of changing from a predetermined first skin display state to a different second skin display state as well as changing between a display state representing such skin and a display state different from the skin For example, a display method may be employed in which a state of displaying pale skin is changed to a display state of good-skinned skin that embodies a beauty effect.

  Moreover, about the degree of the change which changes the replacement | exchange display of the site | part which contacted the head part 12 into skin display reflecting the information of the head part 12 position, the site | part of the skin which contacts the head part 12 (cheek, jaw, Forehead, temples, nose, etc.) and user's skin condition (texture, stain distribution, skin color, moisture condition, etc.), personal data related to the skin (age, gender, cosmetics used, recent It can be changed depending on the meal content). For example, the degree of change to change the replacement display to the skin display is moderated, that is, the change of the replacement display to the skin display by a single contact of the head unit 12 at the part where the head unit 12 is in contact is one of the whole. As a part, the replacement display is not completely changed to the skin display by only one contact, but the replacement display is changed to the skin display through a plurality of contacts (see FIGS. 10 and 11).

  The beauty effect due to the operation of the beauty device varies depending on the skin part, skin condition, and the skin difference for each user as can be seen from the personal data. The cosmetic effect can be obtained by operating the head unit 12 once. May be insufficient and may need to be contacted multiple times. In such a case, a guidance display that causes the user to make an action of bringing the head portion 12 into contact with the target portion a plurality of times is desirable.

  If it is determined from the above-described skin site, skin condition, and personal data that the head portion needs to be contacted multiple times in order to obtain an appropriate cosmetic effect, the mobile communication terminal 90 makes the head portion 12 contact. By changing the replacement display of the part to the skin display gently, making it difficult to change, and by changing the replacement display to the skin display through multiple touches of the head unit 12, it can be used according to the guidance display. The person naturally repeats the operation of bringing the head unit 12 into contact with the skin until all the replacement displays are changed to the skin display. As a result, the head unit 12 is carefully touched to the necessary portion an appropriate number of times. A state in which the cosmetic effect is surely exhibited can be obtained. In addition, after all the replacement display has changed to skin display, the user naturally recognizes the part that has changed to skin display as the part where the head part is fully in contact with the background of the change of the guidance display until then. Then, the head portion 12 is not brought into contact with the corresponding part any more, and a situation that adversely affects the skin due to excessive contact can be avoided, and time spent on unnecessary operations can be prevented. .

  Other factors that bring about a change in the degree of change of the replacement display of the part in contact with the head unit 12 to the skin display include the use history of the beauty device (the number of use so far, the use output level, the use Type of care), environment (season, weather, current time, location).

  As described above, the guidance display by the mobile communication terminal 90 in the operation state relating to the beauty of the beauty device 10 is mainly the display that clearly indicates the skin region that the head unit 12 has already contacted to other parts, It is necessary and sufficient if there is no display for guiding the user's head operation, such as an image such as an arrow indicating the skin position to which the head unit 12 is directed, the route to it, and the moving direction. It is possible to prompt the user to freely operate the device without being restricted by restrictions such as the order in which the heads are brought into contact with or the direction in which the head is moved, while appropriately performing the operation to obtain the cosmetic effect that will not be lost. Even a user who feels stress in the routine operation according to the above can be operated without stress as he / she desires, the psychological burden related to the use of the beauty apparatus 10 can be reduced, and the usage habits can be made. To become.

  As shown above, the process of changing the replacement display to the skin display after a plurality of touches of the head unit 12 is performed little by little as the number of times of contact is repeated as shown in FIGS. The display is not limited to changing the display, and the display may not be changed even if contact or the like is repeated up to a specified number of times, and the display may be changed when the contact is exceeded after the specified number of times.

  In addition, the replacement display portion that represents a skin portion that has not yet been brought into contact with the head portion of the guidance display, in addition to maintaining a constant display state, is based on the current position of the head portion 12. Thus, an image indicating a target position to which the head unit 12 is directed, a moving direction, and the like are superimposed and displayed, and guidance guidance is performed so that an operation for moving the head unit of the user is appropriate. Also good.
