[Security mode type]
Here, the types of security modes that the security device 100 has will be described. In this embodiment, the security device 100 has an outing alert mode, a stay-at-home alert mode, a partial set mode, and an alert release (at-home) mode as security modes.

Monitoring and emergency reporting by the fire sensor 12 are performed regardless of the security mode. Occurrence of abnormality due to these is reported by another alarm sound. On the other hand, the monitoring by the intrusion monitoring sensor 10 differs depending on the security mode.

The outing alert mode is a mode that is set when all the users of the building to be guarded leave (go out) from the building to be guarded. In this mode, the monitoring by the intrusion monitoring sensors 10 is performed by all the intrusion monitoring sensors 10 installed in the security object.

The at-home alert mode is a mode that is used when the user is inside the guarded area and wants to monitor an intrusion from the outside, and is particularly used at bedtime. In this mode, monitoring by the intrusion monitoring sensor 10 is performed only by the intrusion monitoring sensor 10 installed in the outer peripheral area of the building such as the window, the entrance door, and the garden among all the intrusion monitoring sensors 10 .

The partial set mode is a mode used when the security target is partially guarded, for example, when the user is only on the first floor of the security target building and wants to monitor the second floor. In this mode, the monitoring by the intrusion monitoring sensor 10 is performed only by the intrusion monitoring sensor 10 existing in the part to be guarded.

The alert release mode is a mode used when the user spends time at home with the windows open. In this mode, monitoring by the intrusion monitoring sensor 10 is not performed.

[Configuration of mobile terminal]
FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the configuration of the user terminal 200. As shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, the user terminal 200 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 21, a ROM (Read Only Memory) 22, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 23, an input/output interface 25, and a bus 24 connecting these to each other. Prepare.

The CPU 21 appropriately accesses the RAM 23 and the like as necessary, and performs overall control of each block of the user terminal 200 while performing various arithmetic processing. The ROM 22 is a non-volatile memory that permanently stores firmware such as an OS, programs, and various parameters to be executed by the CPU 21 . The RAM 23 is used as a work area for the CPU 21 and temporarily holds the OS, various applications being executed, and various data being processed.

The input/output interface 25 is connected with a display unit 26, an operation reception unit 27, a storage unit 28, a communication unit 29, and the like.

The display unit 26 is a display device using, for example, an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), an OELD (Organic ElectroLuminescence Display), a CRT (Cathode Ray Tube), or the like.

The operation reception unit 27 is, for example, a touch panel, buttons, keys, or other input devices. If the operation reception unit 27 is a touch panel, the touch panel can be integrated with the display unit 26 .

[Message information]
Next, message information stored in the user terminal 200 will be described.

In this embodiment, the user terminal 200 displays a message indicating the mode switching operation by the user and a message indicating the mode switching result of the security device 100 in response to the mode switching operation on the chat screen displayed by the security application. Displayable. Hereinafter, the message indicating the mode switching operation by the user is referred to as "mode operation message", and the message indicating the mode switching result by the security device 100 is referred to as "mode switching message".

The user terminal 200 can display different messages according to the operator of the mode switching operation and the security mode after switching. .

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a table related to the mode operation message information stored in the user terminal 200. As shown in FIG.

As shown in the figure, the table stores message contents in association with operators (user identification information) and post-switch security modes (mode identification information). However, since the mode operation message is a message displayed on the user terminal 200 of the user when the operator of the mode switching operation is the user, only the user name of the operator is stored.

As security mode information after switching, an outing alert mode, an alert release (at home) mode, an at home alert mode, and a partial set mode are stored. "Warning release mode operation", "home warning mode operation" and "partial set operation" are stored. Information indicating the set warning block (block number or block name) is also added to the mode operation message corresponding to the partial set mode.

As described above, the user can input a remote operation by the user terminal 200 and an operation on the main body operation unit 160 of the security device 100 as a security mode switching operation. The mode operation message is displayed on the user terminal 200 of the user as operation information by the user even when the user himself/herself performs a mode switching operation on the main body operation unit 160 using the authentication card.

However, in the case of operation by the main body operation unit 160, the user can recognize that the user's own operation has been input by the output of the notification sound from the notification unit 140, so the mode operation message is not displayed on the chat screen. good too.

FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a table related to the mode switching message information stored in the user terminal 200. As shown in FIG.

As shown in the figure, this table also stores message contents in association with operators (user identification information) and security modes after switching (mode identification information).

As the operator information, the user names (may be plural) of family members (or cohabitants) grouped with the user and the user name of the user are stored. The operator information is associated with each security mode information of the outing guard mode, the guard release (at home) mode, the home guard mode, and the partial set mode. Mode switching message information with different content is associated with the case of the person himself/herself.

That is, when the operator is a family member, the mode switching messages corresponding to the above-mentioned going-out warning mode, warning release (at home) mode, staying-at-home warning mode, and partial set mode are respectively "changed to going out warning mode". , ``changed to alarm release mode'', ``changed to home alarm mode'', ``changed to partial set (+alert block information)''. This is a message to inform

On the other hand, when the operator is the user himself/herself, the mode switching messages corresponding to the outing alert mode, the alert release (at home) mode, the home alert mode, and the partial set mode are, respectively, "Leave it to me" and " "Welcome back", "Please be safe", and "Please be safe (+alert block information)", and the security device 100 (security system) performs each mode switching operation by the user (or when the user goes out, goes home, etc.). The message is a message that tells the user that he/she has recognized the behavior).

Further, even if the operator is the same, the operator information is set so that it can be distinguished between when the main body operation unit 160 is used and when the operation screen of the user terminal 200 is used. For example, when user A operates the main body operation unit 160, the operator information is "A", and when user A operates his own user terminal 200, the operator information is "A (smartphone)". good too.

Regarding the security mode switching operation input on the main body operation unit 160 without using the authentication card, it is not possible to determine whether the operator is the person himself/herself or a family member. is the same as the message when the operator is a family member, and the operator is set as "system".

As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the table stored in the user terminal 200 indicates whether the operator is the person himself or his family member, which security mode is to be used after switching, and furthermore, the mode switching operation. A different message is associated with a combination of whether it is a mode switching result or not.

[Operation screen and chat screen]
As described above, in the present embodiment, the security application of the user terminal 200 includes an operation screen for accepting the security mode switching operation from the user, and a message (the mode operation message and mode switching message) in chronological order in an interactive manner.

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of the operation screen. As shown in the figure, the operation screen 30 is configured as a user interface using, for example, a touch panel. It has a home guard mode setting button 35 and a partial set mode setting button 36 .

The setting menu button 32 is a button used when changing various settings related to user information and the like.

The outing alert mode setting button 33, the alert release mode setting button 34, the home alert mode setting button 35, and the partial set mode setting button 36 change the security mode from the current security mode to the outing alert mode, the alert release mode, and the home mode, respectively. This is a button that accepts an operation for switching to the alert mode and partial set mode. As will be described later, when these buttons are operated by the user, the user terminal 200 transmits a switching request signal to the corresponding security mode to the security device 100 .

The operation screen 30 also has a plurality of partial set block selection buttons 37 . The partial set block selection buttons 37 are buttons for selecting caution blocks to be partially set by the partial set mode setting button 36 . In the example shown in the figure, five caution blocks are listed: "entrance back door", "dining kitchen", "Japanese-style room", "2nd floor children's room", and "2nd floor master bedroom". By operating the setting menu button 32, the user can change the warning blocks to be partially set or the number thereof. When one of these partial set block selection buttons 37 is selected by the user and the partial set mode setting button 36 is operated, the partial set mode with the selected caution block as the caution target is entered. A switch request signal is transmitted.

In the upper part of the operation screen 30, a security mode display icon 38 is provided as an icon common to the operation screen 30 and the chat screen. The security mode display icon 38 indicates the current security mode, and when the security mode is switched by the mode setting buttons, the display of the security mode display icon 38 is switched accordingly. In the example of FIG. 1, the current security mode is the release (at home) mode.

The operation screen 30 is switched to a chat screen by operating the operation menu button 31, and is also switched to a chat screen by operating a close button provided in the upper right portion, for example.

When starting the security application or switching to the operation screen 30, a pop-up prompting the user to enter a passcode for user authentication is displayed. operation is valid. A user authentication method can use biometric authentication such as a fingerprint instead of a passcode. User authentication may also be performed when each mode setting button is pressed on the operation screen 30 .

FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of the chat screen. As shown in the figure, the chat screen 40 includes an operation menu button 31, a setting menu button 32, a security mode display icon 38, and a mode operation message 41 and a mode switching message 42, which are provided in common with the operation screen 30. are distinguished in different areas and interactively displayed in chronological order.

In the message display area, for example, a mode operation message 41 is displayed in the right area, and a mode switching message 42 is displayed in the left area. The message display area has a time axis extending from top to bottom, with older messages (received earlier) being displayed at the top and newer messages (received later) at the bottom. In addition, the latest message is always added to the bottom of the display, and the messages that are older than that and do not fit in the display range of the message display area can be displayed by the user flicking or swiping the message display area in the vertical direction, for example. It can be displayed by scrolling to the bottom.

Each mode operation message 41 and each mode switching message 42 has an operator information, an operation tool, and a reception time (operation time) at an adjacent position (for example, above) in addition to the message body surrounded by a rectangular frame. Contains information. As described above, the person who is displayed as the operator information in the mode operation message 41 is always the user himself/herself. On the other hand, what is displayed as the operator in the mode switching message 42 is the system (security device 100) in the mode switching message 42 indicating the operation result of the user himself/herself, and the operator in the mode switching message 42 indicating the operation result of the family member. It is the user name of the family. The operation tool information is information for displaying information (“smartphone”) indicating that the user has performed a switching operation on the user terminal 200 . Information to that effect (for example, "main body") may be displayed when a switching operation is performed on the security device 100. Also, the display of the operation tool may be omitted.

In the example shown in the figure, mode operation messages 41a and 41b and mode switching messages 42a and 42c are displayed in an interactive manner in response to the user (mother) of the user terminal 200 operating the outing alert mode on the user terminal 200. In addition, a mode switching message 42b is displayed in response to the user's own family member (Taro-kun) operating the main body operation unit 160 to cancel the alert mode.

In addition, in the security application, normal messages can be exchanged between the user himself and his family set as a group. 43b interactively. Although not shown in the figure, when the message display area is double-tapped, a character selection area such as a character input frame and a keyboard for the user to compose a message is displayed, for example, at the bottom.

Notification information other than switching of the security mode by the security device 100 can also be displayed in the same area as the mode switching message 42 .

[Security system operation]
Next, the operation of the security system configured as above will be described. The operation is executed by cooperation between hardware such as the CPU and communication unit of the security device 100 and the user terminal 200 and software stored in the storage unit. In the following description, for the sake of convenience, the control unit 110 of the security device 100 and the security application or CPU 21 of the user terminal 200 are assumed to be main entities. Also, hereinafter, the description of normal message exchanges between the user of user terminal 200 and family members will be omitted.

FIG. 8 is a sequence diagram showing the flow of security mode switching processing in the security system.

As shown in the figure, first, the CPU 21 of the user terminal 200A activates the security application based on the user's (person's) operation (step 81). When the security application is started, the chat screen 40 is displayed as the main screen (step 82). At this time, the CPU 21 inquires of the center server 300 to acquire the unacquired message. Further, if there is a message notified by push notification while the security application is not operating, the CPU 21 updates and displays the chat screen 40 to the latest state including those messages.

Subsequently, the security application determines whether or not the operation menu button 31 has been operated on the chat screen 40 (step 83).

If it is determined that the operation menu button 31 has been pressed (Yes), the security application switches the chat screen 40 to the operation screen 30 and displays it (step 84).

Subsequently, the security application determines whether or not a mode switching operation has been input using each of the mode setting buttons on the operation screen 30 (step 85).

If it is determined that a mode switching operation has been input (Yes), the security application transmits a security mode switching request signal corresponding to the mode switching operation to the security device 100 (step 86). The switching request signal includes the user identification information of the user (the principal) who is the operator of the user terminal 200 to be operated, and the mode identification information representing the security mode to be switched to.

In addition, the security application switches the operation screen to the chat screen according to the mode switching operation, and responds to the switching destination security mode based on this mode switching operation information and the mode identification information of the switching destination security mode. A mode operation message is specified from the table and additionally displayed on the chat screen 40 as the latest message (step 87).

Control unit 110 of security device 100 that has received the switching request signal switches the current security mode to the security mode corresponding to the mode identification information included in the switching request signal (step 88).

Subsequently, the control unit 110 generates a mode switching signal including mode identification information for identifying the security mode after switching and user identification information for identifying the operator included in the switching request signal (step 89). , the signal is simultaneously transmitted to the user terminal 200A that transmitted the switching request signal and to the user terminals 200B of all family users grouped with the user who is the operator (step 90).

The security application of the user terminal 200A of the user who received the mode switching signal specifies the security mode after switching and the operator from the mode identification information and the user identification information included in the mode switching signal (step 91). A mode switching message corresponding to the specified security mode is specified from the table (step 93), and additionally displayed as the latest message on the chat screen 40 (step 95).

Similarly, the security application of the user terminal 200B of the family that received the mode switching signal identifies the security mode after switching and the operator from the mode switching signal (step 92), and selects the mode corresponding to the identified security mode. A switching message is identified from the table (step 94) and additionally displayed as the latest message on the chat screen 40 (step 96).

Although not shown, even when a mode switching operation is performed on the main body operation unit 160 of the security device 100, the security device 100 transmits user identification information indicating the operator and mode identification information indicating the security mode after switching. A mode switching signal including the mode switching signal is transmitted to all the user terminals 200 set in the group. However, depending on the security mode before and after switching, it is possible to switch the security mode without requiring authentication using the authentication card. In that case, the user identification information indicating the operator is set to "system". be.

Also, although not shown, when the operation menu button 31 is operated again without performing the mode switching operation while the operation screen 30 is being displayed, the security application switches from the operation screen 30 to the chat screen 40 . Further, when a mode switching signal is received by the family's mode switching operation while the chat screen 40 is being displayed, the latest message is additionally displayed on the chat screen, and mode switching is performed by the family's mode switching operation while the operation screen 30 is being displayed. When the signal is received, the latest message is additionally displayed after switching from the operation screen 30 to the chat screen 40 .

[Modification]
The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and can be modified in various ways without departing from the gist of the present invention.

The configuration of the operation screen 30 shown in the above embodiment can be changed as appropriate. For example, in the above-described embodiment, the operation screen 30 was displayed over substantially the entire display area of the user terminal 200, but it may be displayed in reduced size. In that case, for example, as shown in FIG. 12, the operation screen 40 may be displayed so as to overlap the chat screen 40 displayed with low brightness. In the example shown in the figure, the layout of the various mode setting buttons 33 to 35 has been changed as the area of the operation screen 40 has been reduced, and the partial set block selection button 37 is a button with only a number indicating a warning block. In addition, the mode also has a decision function by the partial set setting button 36 .

In the above-described embodiment, the mode operation message 41 and the mode switching message 42 are associated with the user (operator) identification information and the mode identification information as shown in the tables of FIGS. , and the user terminal 200 identifies (generates) and displays the message based on the mode switching signal received from the security device 100 . However, among the above, the process of specifying (generating) the mode switching message may be performed by the center server 300 instead of the user terminal 200 .

In this case, the center server functions as a web server, stores a plurality of mode switching messages 42 different according to the user identification information and the mode identification information, A mode switching message 42 corresponding to the mode identification information is identified, generated, and transmitted to the user terminal 200 . The user terminal 200 can display the mode switching message 42 as it is on the chat screen 40 .

In the above-described embodiment, in the mode operation message 41 and the mode switching message 42, the operator information and the reception time information are displayed separately from the message body. It may be integrated and displayed integrally. That is, the security application of the user terminal 200 may generate and display one message based on the identified mode switching message 42 and the operator information corresponding to the user identification information. This allows the user to more intuitively recognize the security mode after switching and the operator. In the above one message, for example, the content of the mode switching message is "Changed to outing alert mode." generated.

In the above-described embodiment, regardless of whether the tool to be operated for mode switching operation is the main body operation unit 160 or the operation screen 30 of the user terminal 200, the same message is displayed except for operator (operation tool) information. . However, if the operation tools are different, different mode switching messages 41 may be associated with them and displayed. For example, when the user operates on the operation screen 30 of the user terminal 200, the message content ( "Welcome back", etc.) may be changed to other messages.

Also, when the user switches to the alert release mode using the user terminal 200, the security application adds a caution message to the mode switching message 42 to confirm whether the user has actually returned home. (or alternatively) may be displayed. At that time, if the security device 100 determines that the location information of the user terminal 200 can be acquired and the user is not at home, a warning such as "Security has been lifted. Please be careful." A mode switching signal corresponding to the awakening message may be transmitted to the user terminal 200 .

In the above-described embodiment, the content of the mode switching message is set based on the security mode after switching. A mode switch message may be stored and displayed. That is, even if the security mode after switching is the same, if the security mode before switching is different, a different mode switching message may be displayed.

In the above-described embodiment, the mode switching operation can be performed from both the operation screen 30 of the user terminal 200 and the main body operation unit 160. Therefore, the operation of the user existing remotely from the building to be guarded and the operation of the user existing inside the building It is conceivable that the user's operations may overlap in a short period of time, which may cause unintended anomalies. Therefore, the security device 100 may give priority to the operation of the main body operation unit 160, which is the operation by the user inside the building, when such a duplicate event occurs. That is, for example, the operation from the user terminal 200 may be disabled within a predetermined time (for example, within 10 seconds, within 30 seconds, etc.) after the mode switching operation is input through the main body operation unit 160 . In this case, an alert message may be displayed on the chat screen 40 of the user terminal 200 to indicate that the operation of the main body operation unit 160 is prioritized.

Further, when the security device 100 can acquire the position information of each user terminal 200, and when a plurality of switching request signals based on the mode switching operation are received from the plurality of user terminals 200 within the predetermined time, , priority may be given to the operation by the user terminal 200 existing in the building to be guarded, and the mode switching process may be executed.

Among the inventions described in the scope of claims of the present application, the invention described as a "security method" automatically performs each step by at least one device such as a computer through information processing by software. , It is not performed by a human using a device such as a computer. In other words, the "security method" is an information processing method using computer software, and is not a method of manipulating a computing tool called a computer.
