  Therefore, the CPU 203 can not only obtain whether the user who wears the wrist terminal 2 is moving by moving from the speed sensor 211 or not, and the moving speed in the case of moving by the input from the speed sensor 211, It is also possible to acquire whether or not the user is moving and the moving speed when moving from the relationship between the distance and time corresponding to the change in position. Therefore, it is possible to reliably detect the presence or absence of movement of the user and the movement speed. Further, as described above, since the smartphone 1 is also provided with the GPS 110 and the speed sensor 111, it has the same function, and therefore, it is possible to more reliably detect the presence or absence of the user movement and the movement speed.

For example, a Tokyo marathon course, a Honolulu marathon course, an imperial palace jogging course, etc., which are 130A, 130B, 130C,... Of setting courses A, B, C,. Also, the courses that the user has set and registered by himself are 1301, 1302, 1303,. Various data collected by the wrist terminal 2 are sent to the server 11 and processed.

  FIG. 6 is a conceptual diagram showing the configuration of the priority table 213 provided in the wrist terminal 2 as described above. The priority table 213 includes an application area 2131, a first predetermined speed less than speed area 2132, a first predetermined speed or higher speed area 2133, a second constant speed less than speed area (not shown), and a second predetermined speed. A speed or more area, a third constant speed or less area, and a third predetermined speed or more area are provided correspondingly. The type (name) of the application executed by the smartphone 1 is written in the application area 2131 in advance. If the user's moving speed is less than a predetermined speed (for example, 10 km / h) when the application application is instructed by touching the icon of the corresponding application in the less-count area 2132, the count is incremented by one. The stored values are stored while being updated. In the full count area 2133, when the user's moving speed when touching the corresponding application icon is instructed to start the application is equal to or higher than the predetermined speed, the numerical value incremented by one is updated. While being stored.

  That is, although the icons are narrowed as the moving speed increases, this is for setting the priority of the icons to be left at that time. The priority table 213 can be installed in the wrist terminal 2, in the server 11, or in the smartphone 1.

  When installed on the server 11, information on which icon is used frequently when moving at which speed is statistically checked to write in the priority table 213 of the server 11 in advance. In that case, the number of icons is narrowed with the same priority at the time of movement in all the list terminals 2 linked to the SNS site 10 configured by the server 11.

  When installed on the smartphone terminal 2, for each user's list terminal 2, collect information on which icon is used frequently when moving at which speed, and narrow the icon by the learning function I will decide the order. This narrows down to icons that are frequently used for each user.

  Furthermore, from the design design point of view, select an icon that is likely to be used when running at high speed or an icon that is likely to be used when walking slowly while moving to server 11. It may be written in advance in the installed priority table 213.

  Further, as described above, the server 11 is provided with a course memory 130 in which various courses are set. These courses may change the frequency of icons used by the user. For example, there are courses that emphasize recording, extremely hard courses, and courses that enjoy leisurely walks, and depending on the nature of the course, a course that emphasizes recording does not use a camera icon even at low speeds, but a course that enjoys strolling The camera icon may be used frequently. Therefore, a priority table 213 described later may be provided for each course. Then, when the same user wears the same wrist terminal 2 and is trained, there is an effect that the icon displayed according to the increase or decrease of the moving speed becomes suitable for the selected course.

  FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the operation of the smartphone 1 and the wrist terminal 2 when the above-mentioned quick launch application is launched by the user in the smartphone 1.

  As shown in FIG. 7A, the smartphone 1 starts its operation with the activation of the quick activation application, and if it is not the first activation time (step SA1: NO), the display unit 102 immediately displays the home screen. Is displayed (step SA4). The home screen is a screen on which a plurality of icons and the like corresponding to a plurality of application programs 1073 stored in the program memory 107 are arranged.

  If it is the first activation time (step SA1: YES), pairing processing is performed with the wrist terminal 2 (step SA2). Here, the first activation time is the activation time of the quick activation application in the state where the wrist terminal 2 is not registered in the smartphone 1 as an authentication terminal. Corresponding to this, as shown in FIG. 7 (b), the power is on also in the wrist terminal 2, and at the first activation of the quick activation application in the smartphone 1 (step SB 1: YES), The pairing process is performed between (step SB2).

  That is, in the present embodiment, the smartphone 1 operates as a master and the wrist terminal 2 operates as a slave, whereby pairing is performed between the two.

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing pairing processing between the smartphone 1 and the wrist terminal 2 in the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 6A, the smartphone 1 searches for the nearest list terminal 2 in a state in which Bluetooth (registered trademark) (or Wi-Fi) is set and proximity wireless communication is possible (step SA101). ).

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 8 (b), the wrist terminal 2 is also set with Bluetooth (registered trademark) (or Wi-Fi), and searches for nearby smartphones in a state where proximity wireless communication is possible (step SB 101). At this time, if the smartphone 1 and the list terminal 2 of the user who is not paired are in proximity to each other, the smartphone 1 and the list terminal 2 repeat transmission and reception on the close proximity radio, respectively, Search for

  When the search for the nearby device is completed, the smartphone 1 transmits a connection request to the wrist terminal 2 (step SA102, FIG. 2 (1)), and the wrist terminal 2 transmits a connection request to the smartphone 1 (step SB102). , FIG. 2 (2). Then, it is judged whether or not the mutual communication by the connection request has been established from each of these devices (steps SA103 and SB103). If the intercommunication by the connection request is established (step SA103: YES), the smartphone 1 issues a pairing completion notification to the wrist terminal 2 (step SA104, FIG. 2 (3)). The wrist terminal 2 determines whether or not the pairing completion notification has been received from the smartphone 1 (step SB104).

  When the wrist terminal 2 receives the pairing completion notification (step SB104: YES) after the mutual communication with the smartphone 1 is established (step SB103: YES), the list terminal 2 generates a passkey, and displays 30 in the display unit 202, for example. The display is performed for a second (step SB105, FIG. 2 (4)). The user of the smartphone 1 and the wrist terminal 2 visually recognizes the passkey displayed on the display unit 202 of the wrist terminal 2, operates the key of the input unit 105 of the smartphone 1, and inputs the passkey. Thereby, the input unit 105 of the smartphone 1 inputs a pass key corresponding to the operated key to the CPU 106 (step SA105).

  Subsequently, the smartphone 1 determines whether the input passkey satisfies the input condition. Here, the input condition is, for example, whether or not the issued passkey is input within 30 seconds, as described in FIG. 2 (5). The number of input restrictions is up to three. When these input conditions are not satisfied (step SA106: NO), the process returns to step SA101.

  On the other hand, when the input condition is satisfied (step SA106: YES), the connection is completed (step SA107), and the smartphone 1 and the list terminal 2 that are paired (mutual authentication) are identified using the passkey as identification information. Communication settings are automatically performed to enable communication connection with each other.

  Subsequently, when the above-described pairing is completed, the smartphone 1 transmits the application information to the wrist terminal 2 (step SA3). The application information transmitted to the wrist terminal 2 is information on a plurality of application programs 1073 stored in the program memory 107 of the smartphone 1 and is identification information of each application and icon data (image data).

  After that, the smartphone 1 displays the home screen on the display unit 102 (step SA4). Thereafter, in the smartphone 1, the quick start application is operating in the background, and in parallel with the other operations, the operations after step SA 5 described later are performed.

  On the other hand, when the above-described application information is transmitted from the smartphone 1 while in the standby state, the wrist terminal 2 stores it in the pairing destination information memory 209 (step SB3). After that, the wrist terminal 2 displays the home screen 2021 shown in FIG. 9A on the display unit 202 (step SB4).

  FIG. 9 shows an example of the display screen of the display unit 202 of the wrist terminal 2. The figure (a) is a state of a home screen. As described below with reference to the flowchart, the number of displayed icons is reduced and the display size is increased as the moving speed increases as shown in (a) (b) (c) (d). ing.

  The home screen 2021 of the wrist terminal 2 is the same as the home screen (not shown) of the smartphone 1 and is a screen on which nine icons A to I indicating nine applications are arranged. Each of the icons A to I is based on icon data included in the application information stored in the pairing destination information memory 209.

  The plurality of icons A to I displayed on the wrist terminal 2 are selectively displayed from among the icons displayed on the home screen of the smartphone 1. At that time, in a state where there is an icon that can not be arranged on the home screen 2021 due to the display space, the group of icons arranged on the home screen of the smartphone 1 is displayed on the home screen 2021 For example, the display is switched in order. The plurality of icons on the display screen of the wrist terminal 2 may be scrollable. That is, the display may be switched and displayed one by one in accordance with a predetermined operation by the user.

  Further, when the start of the quick start application on the smartphone 1 is not the first time (step SB1: NO), the wrist terminal 2 has already stored the application information in the pairing destination information memory 209 and has paired with the smartphone 1 In this case, the home screen 2021 is displayed on the display unit 202 immediately after the power is turned on.

  After that, the wrist terminal 2 checks at any time whether or not an arbitrary icon arranged on the home screen 2021 is selected by the user (step SB5). Here, the selection of the icon by the user is performed by one-touching the home screen 2021 (touch panel 203) as shown in FIG. 9A.

  Then, when an arbitrary icon is selected (step SB5: YES), the wrist terminal 2 acquires the moving velocity at that time detected by the velocity sensor 211 (step SB6). Subsequently, an activation command of the application corresponding to the icon is transmitted to the smartphone 1 together with the identification information of the application (step SB7). That is, the activation instruction signal for instructing the activation of the application corresponding to the icon is transmitted to the smartphone 1.

  On the other hand, after displaying the home screen in step SA4, for example, the smartphone 1 is in a standby state without performing any operation by the quick start application while it is not transitioning to the sleep mode (step SA5: NO).

  In addition, for example, while the smartphone 1 is transitioning to the sleep mode with the operation by the user or with no operation for a predetermined time, that is, while the display of the home screen is stopped (step SA5: YES) Then, the presence or absence of the reception of the start command from the wrist terminal 2 is sequentially checked (step SA6).

  When the smartphone 1 receives the activation command from the wrist terminal 2 (step SA6: YES), the smartphone 1 transmits a startup report to the list terminal 2 (step SA7), and immediately terminates the sleep mode (cancels). Then, the display of the home screen is resumed (step SA8). After that, the smartphone 1 activates the application indicated by the identification information sent together with the activation instruction (step SA9).

  That is, when the smartphone 1 receives the above-described activation command from the wrist terminal 2, when the security lock function is enabled at that time, the smartphone 1 cancels it and ends the sleep mode. Start an action by the specified application. Thereafter, the smartphone 1 returns to the operation of step SA5. Thereafter, after shifting to the sleep mode at an arbitrary time, the smartphone 1 repeats the operation in steps SA7 to SA9.

  On the other hand, when the wrist terminal 2 receives the aforementioned activation report from the smartphone 1 (step SB8: YES), the display unit 102 displays a confirmation message notifying the user that the application selected by the user has been activated in the smartphone 1 (Step SB9). Thereafter, the wrist terminal 2 returns to step SB5 and repeats the above-described operation.

  Here, for convenience, it is assumed that the activation report can always be received from the smartphone 1, but for example, when the activation report can not be received as in the case where communication with the smartphone 1 is impossible, the list terminal 2 is an application Repeatedly send start command. Then, when the activation report can not be received from the smartphone 1 even if the number of transmissions reaches the predetermined number, the wrist terminal 2 displays an error message notifying the user of the fact on the display unit 102.

  After that, the wrist terminal 2 updates the priority table 213 (step SB10). That is, from the priority table 213, the application whose selection is confirmed in step SB5 is searched, and if the speed acquired in step SB6 is less than the predetermined speed, the value of the corresponding less frequent area 2132 is counted up. If the speed is equal to or higher than the predetermined speed, the value of the corresponding number of times area 2133 is counted up. Therefore, the larger the numerical value of the number area 2133, the higher the probability of being used at a predetermined speed or higher, and the higher the priority to be used at a predetermined speed or higher.

  As described above, in the system according to the present embodiment, when the smartphone 1 and the wrist terminal 2 are paired, information on an application of the smartphone 1 is acquired by the wrist terminal 2. Thereby, the user can select an arbitrary application included in the smartphone 1 in the wrist terminal 2 as an activation target.

  Then, while the smartphone 1 is in the sleep state, the user can instruct the smartphone 1 to end the sleep mode and activate the specified application by instructing the wrist terminal 2 to activate the desired application.

  Furthermore, when the security lock function is enabled, after releasing it, it is possible to cause the smartphone 1 to end the sleep mode and to start the specified application.

  Therefore, when the user takes out the smartphone 1 from the bag or pocket and uses it, that is, uses the desired application, the user performs an operation to cancel the sleep state and display the home screen, and in some cases, the password. A desired application can be instantaneously activated from the wrist terminal 2 without performing a complicated work such as inputting of the character. Therefore, according to the system of this embodiment, the starting performance at the time of use of the smart phone 1 can be improved.

  FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing a timer interrupt routine executed by the CPU 206 of the wrist terminal 2 at predetermined time intervals in the present embodiment. Based on the signal from the speed sensor 211, the CPU 206 determines whether the moving speed has been detected (step SB201). If the moving speed is not detected, that is, if the user wearing the wrist terminal 2 is stationary, the home screen 2021 is displayed (step SB202). As described above with reference to FIG. 9A, the home screen 2021 is a screen on which nine icons A to I indicating nine applications are arranged.

  However, as a result of the determination in step SB201, when the user is moving, it is determined whether the velocity of the user detected by the velocity sensor 211 is less than the first predetermined velocity (step SB203). Even when the user's speed is lower than the first predetermined speed, the home screen 2021 is displayed (step SB204).

  On the other hand, if the speed of the detected user is equal to or higher than the first predetermined speed, and the user is moving at a relatively high speed due to running or the like, the speed is lower than the second predetermined speed (first predetermined speed It is determined whether the speed is less than the second predetermined speed (step SB205). If the determination in step SB205 is YES and the speed of the user is equal to or higher than the first predetermined speed and lower than the second predetermined speed, icons of priorities 1 to 4 are displayed (step SB206). That is, as described above, the larger the numerical value of the number area 2133, the higher the probability that the application is used at a predetermined speed or higher, and the higher the priority to use at a predetermined speed or higher. Therefore, the icons of priorities 1 to 4 are the icon corresponding to the first application with the largest number in the number area 2133, and the icons corresponding to the second, third, and fourth applications following this.

  Therefore, four icons A, B, D, and H are displayed by the process at step SB205 as illustrated in FIG. 9B. In the display processing in step SB205, as shown in the figure, the icons A, B, D, and H do not overlap, and a part of them is enlarged and displayed in a range in which the icons do not protrude outside the display unit 202. . Therefore, it becomes possible to improve the operability during movement of the user with respect to the icon displayed on the display unit 202 of the wrist terminal 2 smaller than the smartphone 1. Therefore, even with the display unit 202 with a small display area, the user can easily and reliably touch a desired icon to instruct the smartphone 1 to start the corresponding application.

  Moreover, since the four icons A, B, D, H correspond to applications that are frequently used while the user is moving at a predetermined speed, applications related to this when walking or running are required by the user It is possible to start up quickly and reliably.

  If the determination in step SB205 is NO, the detected user's speed is equal to or higher than the second predetermined speed, and the user is moving at a higher speed due to running or the like, the speed is the third predetermined speed. It is determined whether the speed is less than the speed (second predetermined speed <third predetermined speed) (step SB207). If the determination in step SB207 is YES and the speed of the user is equal to or higher than the second predetermined speed and lower than the third predetermined speed, icons of priorities 1 and 2 are displayed (step SB208). That is, as described above, the priority 1 and 2 icons are the icon corresponding to the 1st application with the largest number in the number-of-times area 2133 and the icon corresponding to the 2nd application following this.

  Therefore, as illustrated in FIG. 9C, two icons A and B are displayed by the process in step SB208. Also in the display processing in step SB208, as shown in the figure, the icons A and B are enlarged and displayed in a range in which some of the icons do not overlap and some of them do not protrude outside the display unit 202. Therefore, it becomes possible to improve the operability during movement of the user with respect to the icon displayed on the display unit 202 of the wrist terminal 2 smaller than the smartphone 1. Therefore, even with the display unit 202 with a small display area, the user can easily and reliably touch a desired icon to instruct the smartphone 1 to start the corresponding application.

  Moreover, since the two icons A and B correspond to applications that are frequently used while the user is moving at a predetermined speed, it is possible to quickly and reliably provide the application that the user needs in connection with walking or running. It becomes possible to start.

  If the determination in step SB207 is NO, the detected user's speed is equal to or higher than the third predetermined speed, and the user is moving at a higher speed due to running or the like, the priority 1 icon is displayed. (Step SB209). That is, as described above, the priority 1 icon is the icon corresponding to the first application having the largest number in the number-of-times area 2133.

  Therefore, two icons A and B are displayed as illustrated in FIG. 9D by the processing in step SB208. In addition, also in the display processing in step SB208, as shown in the figure, in a range in which a part of each icon A does not protrude out of the display unit 202, it is enlarged and displayed. Therefore, it becomes possible to improve the operability during movement of the user with respect to the icon displayed on the display unit 202 of the wrist terminal 2 smaller than the smartphone 1. Therefore, even with the display unit 202 with a small display area, the user can easily and reliably touch a desired icon to instruct the smartphone 1 to start the corresponding application.

  Moreover, since one icon A corresponds to the most frequently used application while the user is moving at a predetermined speed, the application required by the user can be started quickly and reliably when walking or running. It is possible to

FIG. 11 is a display transition diagram showing another display form of the wrist terminal 2 displayed by execution of the timer interrupt routine according to the present embodiment shown in FIG. That is, as in the case of executing the timer interrupt of FIG. 10, the icon is displayed as follows in relation to the speed of the user.
(1) If less than the first predetermined speed, the home screen (FIG. 11 (a))
(2) In the case where the speed is equal to or higher than the first predetermined speed and lower than the second predetermined speed, icons with priorities 1 to 4 (FIG. 6B)
(3) In the case where the speed is higher than the second predetermined speed and lower than the third predetermined speed, the icons with the priorities 1 and 2 ((c) in the figure).
(4) An icon of priority 1 when the speed is higher than the third predetermined speed ((d) in the figure)

  However, in this display mode, the number of displays is reduced according to the moving speed without changing the size (area) of the icons. Therefore, even if the size of the icon is small, if the number of displays on the screen is small, the space can be spared, and the touch operation becomes easy.

  In addition, since the display of the icon does not change within each of the first, second, second, third, and third predetermined speed conditions, the display mode of the icon does not change frequently. Some hysteresis can be provided. Therefore, it is possible to prevent in advance the deterioration of visibility due to the frequent change of the display mode of the icon.

  FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing a timer interrupt routine executed by the CPU 206 of the wrist terminal 2 at a predetermined time interval in the second embodiment of the present invention. Based on the signal from the speed sensor 211, the CPU 206 determines whether the moving speed is detected (step SB301). If the moving speed is not detected, that is, if the user wearing the wrist terminal 2 is stationary, the home screen 2021 is displayed (step SB302).

  However, as a result of the determination in step SB301, when the user is moving, the icon is enlarged and displayed in a size according to the speed detected by the speed sensor 211 (step SB303). This enlarged icon is a high priority icon, as in the above embodiment. Next, as a result of the enlarged display in step SB303, the icon which is not fit entirely in the display unit 202 is erased (step SB304). Therefore, also in this embodiment, as illustrated in FIG. 9B, four icons A, B, D, and H which are entirely contained and enlarged in the display unit 202 are displayed.

  Moreover, since the icons A, B, D, and H are displayed in sizes according to the moving speed of the user in the present embodiment, icons of an appropriate size regardless of the speed at which the user is moving Can be displayed on the entire screen.

  When traveling by train or traveling by car, the traveling speed may be detected quite fast. Therefore, when a predetermined speed or more is detected, it is determined that the vehicle is not traveling by itself and the same icon as at the time of stationary is displayed.

  In addition, if the change in position is not detected by the GPS 110 or 211 so that the swing of the arm is not detected erroneously as the velocity sensor 111 or 211 detects movement, it is considered as not moving. That is, in the present embodiment, the moving speed detecting means simultaneously detects a change in position.

  FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing a timer interrupt routine executed by the CPU 206 of the wrist terminal 2 at a predetermined time interval in the third embodiment of the present invention. Based on the signal from the speed sensor 211, the CPU 206 determines whether the moving speed has been detected (step SB401). If the moving speed is not detected, that is, if the user wearing the wrist terminal 2 is stationary, the home screen 2021 is displayed (step SB402). On this home screen 2021, as shown in FIG. 14A, two icons A and B indicating two types of applications are arranged, and the corresponding title (training start button) 2022 and description of functions (time along the way And the course can be displayed).

  However, as a result of the determination in step SB401, when the user is moving, it is determined whether the velocity of the user detected by the velocity sensor 211 is less than the first predetermined velocity (step SB403). Even when the user's speed is lower than the first predetermined speed, the home screen 2021 is displayed (step SB404).

  On the other hand, if the speed of the detected user is equal to or higher than the first predetermined speed (first threshold) and the user is moving at a relatively high speed due to running or the like, the speed is the second predetermined speed. It is determined whether it is less than (second threshold) (first predetermined speed <second predetermined speed) (step SB405). If the determination in step SB405 is YES and the speed of the user is equal to or higher than the first predetermined speed and lower than the second predetermined speed, the icons A and B are displayed as shown in FIG. While enlarging it than the case of (a), only the title is written together (step SB406).

  If the determination in step SB405 is NO, the detected user's speed is equal to or higher than the second predetermined speed, and the user is moving at a higher speed due to running or the like, the speed is the third predetermined speed. It is determined whether it is less than the speed (third threshold) (second predetermined speed <third predetermined speed) (step SB407). If the determination in step SB407 is YES and the speed of the user is equal to or higher than the second predetermined speed and lower than the third predetermined speed, as shown in FIG. 14C, icons A and B are displayed. While enlarging it than the case of (b), a simplified title 2024 in which the icon title is simplified is written together (step SB408).

  Also, if the determination in step SB407 is NO, the detected user's speed is equal to or higher than the second predetermined speed, and the user is moving at a higher speed due to running or the like, as shown in FIG. As described above, the icons A and B are enlarged as compared with the case of FIG.

  Therefore, according to the present embodiment, by the description of the title and the function, it is possible to perform an appropriate operation while recognizing the icon and the contents of the application corresponding thereto. In the case of the display form of FIG. 14D, the description of the icon is omitted, but if a picture suggesting a function is drawn on the icon itself, it is considered that there is no particular confusion.

  In addition, even if the moving speed is not detected, a technology is known that determines whether the user is at rest, walking, or running according to the pattern of the detection result of the acceleration of the acceleration sensor. .

  Therefore, even if the actual moving speed is not detected, when it is determined that the user is walking, the same icon as the moving speed equivalent to 4 km / h is selected and displayed, and when it is determined that it is running, 8 h / hour. The same icon can be selected and displayed at a moving speed equivalent to 10 km.

  Furthermore, as described above, if a course setting such as a walking course or a running course can be registered in the server 11 as a course data 130, a plurality of set courses or my courses can be registered, for example, my course 1 (1301) If My Course 2 (1302) is set to run at 12 kilometers per hour, if My Course 1 is selected, even if the actual travel speed is not detected, When the same icon as the movement speed corresponding to 5 kilometers per hour is selected and displayed, and when My Course 2 is selected, the same icon as the movement speed corresponding to 12 kilometers per hour can be selected and displayed.

  In the embodiment, the wrist terminal 2 which can be worn on the arm is shown as the information terminal, but the information terminal is not limited to the one worn on the arm, and may be a necklace type or the like.

As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, as long as it is in the range from which the effect of this invention is acquired, these can be changed suitably, and the embodiment after a change is also described in the claim, And within the scope of the invention equivalent to the invention.
