The storage device 228 is implemented by, for example, a flash memory, a hard disk or other fixed storage device, or a removable data recording medium.

[Management server 200]
The management server 200 implements various functions by executing programs stored in the memory by the CPU. Functional blocks will be described later.

[Cloud server configuration]
The configuration of the cloud server 150 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing the hardware configuration of computer system 300 that functions as cloud server 150. As shown in FIG.

The computer system 300 has, as main components, a CPU 1 that executes a program, a mouse 2 and a keyboard 3 that receive instructions input by the user of the computer system 300, data generated by the execution of the program by the CPU 1, or the mouse 2 Alternatively, a RAM 4 for volatilely storing data input via the keyboard 3, a hard disk 5 for nonvolatilely storing data, an optical disk drive 6, a communication interface (I/F) 7, and a monitor 8. include. Each component is connected to each other by a data bus. The optical disc drive device 6 is loaded with a CD-ROM 9 or other optical discs.

Processing in the computer system 300 is implemented by each piece of hardware and software executed by the CPU 1 . Such software may be stored in the hard disk 5 in advance. Also, the software may be stored in a CD-ROM 9 or other recording medium and distributed as a computer program. Alternatively, the software may be provided as a downloadable application program by a so-called information provider connected to the Internet. Such software is temporarily stored in the hard disk 5 after being read from the recording medium by the optical disk drive 6 or other reading device, or downloaded via the communication interface 7 . The software is read from the hard disk 5 by the CPU 1 and stored in the RAM 4 in the form of an executable program. CPU1 executes the program.

Each component that makes up the computer system 300 shown in FIG. 3 is conventional. Therefore, it can be said that one of the essential parts of the technical idea according to the present disclosure is software stored in RAM 4, hard disk 5, CD-ROM 9 or other recording media, or software that can be downloaded via a network. Recording media may include non-transitory computer-readable data recording media. Since the operation of each piece of hardware in computer system 300 is well known, detailed description will not be repeated.

The recording medium is not limited to CD-ROM, FD (Flexible Disk), hard disk, magnetic tape, cassette tape, optical disk (MO (Magnetic Optical Disc) / MD (Mini Disc) / DVD (Digital Versatile Disc)). , IC (Integrated Circuit) card (including memory card), optical card, mask ROM, EPROM (Electronically Programmable Read-Only Memory), EEPROM (Electronically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory), flash ROM and other semiconductor memories It may be a medium that literally carries the program.

The program here includes not only a program that can be directly executed by the CPU, but also a program in source program format, a compressed program, an encrypted program, and the like.

[Device configuration of watching system 100]
Watching using the watching system 100 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of a schematic device configuration of the monitoring system 100 using the sensor box 119. As shown in FIG.

The watching system 100 is used to watch over residents 111 and 121 who are watching targets (monitoring targets) and other residents. As shown in FIG. 4, a sensor box 119 is attached to the ceiling of living room 110 . Sensor boxes 119 are similarly installed in other living rooms.

Range 410 represents the detection range by sensor box 119 . If the sensor box 119 has a Doppler sensor as described above, the Doppler sensor detects human behavior occurring within the range 410 . If sensor box 119 has a camera as a sensor, the camera takes an image within range 410 .

Sensor box 119 is installed, for example, in nursing homes, medical facilities, homes, and the like. In the example of FIG. 4, the sensor box 119 is attached to the ceiling and photographs the resident 111 and the bed 113 from the ceiling. The mounting location of the sensor box 119 is not limited to the ceiling, and may be mounted on the side wall of the living room 110 .

The watching system 100 detects a danger to the resident 111 based on a series of images (that is, video) obtained from the camera 105 . By way of example, detectable hazards include resident 111 falling, resident 111 being in a hazardous area (eg, bed rails, etc.), and the like.

When the watching system 100 detects that the resident 111 is in danger, the monitoring system 100 notifies the caregivers 141, 143, etc. of the fact. As an example of the notification method, the watching system 100 notifies the mobile terminals 143 and 144 of the caregivers 141 and 142 of the danger of the resident 111 . Upon receiving the notification, the portable terminals 143 and 144 notify the caregivers 141 and 142 of the danger of the resident 111 by message, voice, vibration, or the like. As a result, the caregivers 141 and 142 can immediately grasp that the resident 111 is in danger, and can quickly rush to the resident 111 .

Note that FIG. 4 shows an example in which the monitoring system 100 includes one sensor box 119 , but the monitoring system 100 may include a plurality of sensor boxes 119 . Moreover, although FIG. 4 shows an example in which the monitoring system 100 includes a plurality of mobile terminals 143 and 144, the monitoring system 100 can also be realized by a single mobile terminal.

The communication interface 104 of the sensor box 119 in this example transmits the sensor data acquired by the Doppler sensor 106 to the cloud server 150 at any time.

The cloud server 150 stores in the hard disk 5 as an example.
The management server 200 reads the sensor data stored in the hard disk 5 of the cloud server 150 and executes predetermined processing. In this example, the subject's condition is determined. For example, it determines whether the subject is in a resting state or an awake state.

The management server 200 notifies the caregiver of the subject's condition as needed.
[Sensor data]
FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating sensor data in a resting state during sleep of the subject acquired by the sensor box 119 according to the embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 5, reflected microwave waves are detected by the Doppler sensor. For example, when the subject is in a resting state while sleeping on the bed, there are few movements other than the breathing motion. Therefore, a signal with a small amplitude is detected with a constant period of the reflected wave in accordance with the movement of the respiratory motion.

FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating sensor data in an awake state during sleep of the subject acquired by the sensor box 119 based on the embodiment.

For example, when the subject is awake while sleeping on the bed, movements other than breathing movements are large. Therefore, the reflected wave corresponding to motion other than breathing motion such as rolling over is large, and the motion of the subject causes a large amplitude in the waveform of the signal.

[Processing of management server 200]
FIG. 7 is a functional block diagram illustrating processing of the management server 200 based on the first embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 7 , management server 200 includes a data acquisition unit 202 , a state determination unit 204 , an update unit 208 , a recording unit 210 and an output unit 212 .

The data acquisition unit 202 acquires sensor data stored in the cloud server 150 .

The state determination unit 204 determines the subject's state based on the sensor data acquired by the cloud server 150 . Specifically, the respiration rate and the body movement rate of the subject are measured based on the acquired sensor data, and the subject's condition is determined based on the respiration rate and the body movement rate. For example, it is determined whether the subject is in a resting state or an awake state.

The updating unit 208 overwrites and updates the information stored in the recording unit 210 based on the data transmitted from the mobile terminals 143 and 144 .

Recording unit 210 stores information determined by state determining unit 204 in memory. For example, the subject's state in terms of resting or wakefulness may be recorded.

The output unit 212 outputs information stored in the memory.
FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating processing of the management server 200 based on the first embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 8, data acquisition unit 202 determines whether or not it is determination timing (step S0). The determination timing can be every lapse of a predetermined period (eg, 10 minutes).

When the data acquisition unit 202 determines that it is the determination timing (YES in step S0), the data acquisition unit 202 acquires sensor data stored in the cloud server 150 (step S2). On the other hand, when it is determined that it is not the determination timing, the state of step S2 is maintained.

Next, the state determination unit 204 calculates the number of breathing and the number of body movements for each predetermined period (10 minutes) based on the sensor data acquired by the data acquisition unit 202 (step S4).

Next, the state determination unit 204 determines the subject's state based on the respiratory rate and the body movement rate (step S6). For example, the state determination unit 204 determines that the person is in a resting state when the combination of the respiratory rate and the number of body movements satisfies a predetermined condition, and otherwise determines that the person is in an alert state.

Next, the recording unit 210 associates the determination result determined by the state determination unit 204 with the date information and stores it in the memory (step S8).

Then, the process returns to step S0.
When the above process is automatically executed every predetermined period (for example, 10 minutes) by the process and the conditions are satisfied, the image data and the date information are associated and stored in the memory as needed.

FIG. 9 is a diagram explaining a data table stored in the memory of the management server 200. As shown in FIG.

Referring to FIG. 9, in this example, a data table of a room is shown as an example.

In this example, the name of Mr. A's room is "Room No. 207" as an example of a certain room.
As an example, a case is shown in which date information and related information are associated and stored in the data table every 10 minutes during the time "00:00 to 00:30". In addition, information related to the condition of the subject is stored as related information. In this example, resting or awake state and respiratory rate/minute information is stored.

For example, a case is shown in which information of a resting state and a respiratory rate of 15 times/minute are associated with time "00:00" and stored. The same applies to other cases.

FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating a status display screen displayed on the display 226 of the mobile terminal 143 according to the first embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 10, when caregiver 141 operates portable terminal 143 to access management server 200 and request information on Mr. A, output unit 212 of management server 200 outputs the information in the data table to the portable terminal. 143.

In this example, as an example, the status display screen of Mr. A in the living room "Room 207" is shown based on the information in the data table.

In this example, Mr. A, the living room "Room 207", the time information 00:00, the state, and the respiratory rate are displayed.

Specifically, the data of the resting state and the respiratory rate of 15 times/minute registered in association with the time information "00:00" are displayed.

This allows the caregiver 141 to easily check Mr. A's condition through the display 226 of the mobile terminal 143 .

[input screen]
In embodiments, for example, caregiver 141 can input the subject's condition using mobile terminal 143 . For example, the caregiver 141 visits the living room (room 207) of the subject (Mr. A) and inputs information while confirming the subject's condition.

The same applies to the mobile terminal 144 as well.
FIG. 11 is a diagram for explaining an input screen of the mobile terminal 143 based on the first embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 11, an input room "Room 207", buttons for selecting sleep and wake states, buttons for free description of sleep states, body temperature and blood pressure, and vital information on percutaneous arterial oxygen saturation (Spo2). It includes an input field, an assistance recording free technique button, and a save button.

By selecting buttons provided on the input screen, it is possible to selectively input the condition of the subject, input vital information, and arbitrarily input the condition information of the subject.

By selecting the save button, the information entered on the input screen is transmitted to the management server 200 .

Management server 200 updates the data table according to the information.
FIG. 12 is a flowchart illustrating processing of the input screen of the mobile terminal 143 based on the first embodiment. Specifically, it is processing in the control device 221 of the portable terminal 143 .

Referring to FIG. 12, control device 221 determines whether or not there is a command input (step S10). Specifically, the caregiver inputs desired room information. As an example, enter "207".

In step S10, the control device 221 maintains the state of step S10 if no command is input.

On the other hand, in step S10, when a command is input (YES in step S10), control device 221 displays an input screen (step S12). Specifically, the input screen of FIG. 11 is displayed on the display 226 . According to the input of room information (room No. 207), an input screen for the room information is displayed.

Next, the control device 221 executes input processing (step S14). The caregiver executes predetermined input processing in accordance with the operation instructions on the input screen of FIG. 11 . Select sleep and awake states, input vital information, and so on.

Next, the control device 221 determines whether or not there is an instruction to save (step S16).
In step S16, if there is no instruction to save (NO in step S16), control device 221 returns to step S14 and repeats the above process.

When control device 221 determines in step S16 that there is an instruction to save (YES in step S16), it transmits the input processed data to management server 200 (step S18).

Then, the processing is terminated (END).
FIG. 13 is a flowchart illustrating update processing in the management server 200 according to the first embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 13, data acquisition unit 202 determines whether or not data has been received from portable terminal 143 (step S20).

In step S20, if data acquisition unit 202 has not received data (NO in step S20), the state of step S20 is maintained.

In step S20, when data is received from mobile terminal 143 (YES in step S20), data acquisition section 202 instructs update section 208, and update section 208 acquires table information (step S22). Based on the room information included in the data from the portable terminal 143, the update unit 208 acquires table information corresponding to the room information.

Next, the update unit 208 updates the table information (step S24). Specifically, update unit 208 updates the content of data corresponding to the time included in the data received from portable terminal 143 . For example, if the data received from the portable terminal 143 is the data of the time "00:00", the table information data corresponding to the time "00:00" is updated. Then, the data received from the portable terminal 143 is prioritized to update the data of the table information.

Then, the processing is terminated (END).
Through this process, the caregiver inputs information to the input screen via the portable terminal, thereby writing the information in the table information and overwriting the table information.

Therefore, with only the automatic determination in the management server 200, there is a possibility that the condition of the subject is erroneously determined because the caregiver has not actually checked the living room. Since the condition of the subject is recorded and updated based on the information confirming the condition of the subject, it is possible to confirm the safety of the subject with high accuracy.

(Embodiment 2)
In the first embodiment described above, the case where the caregiver 141 carries the portable terminal 143 and enters the living room of the subject to record has been described.

In the second embodiment, a method for assisting recording of the portable terminal 143 possessed by the caregiver 141 will be described. In this example, the mobile terminal 143 will be described as an example, but the mobile terminal 144 is not limited to this and the same applies.

FIG. 14 is a flow diagram illustrating processing of the sensor box 119 based on the second embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 14, wireless communication device 107 of sensor box 119 transmits a search signal for searching portable terminal 143 in the living room (step S25). Wireless communication device 107 of sensor box 119 broadcasts a search signal at predetermined intervals. It is assumed that mobile terminal 143 transmits a reply notification to sensor box 119 when the search signal is received.

Next, wireless communication device 107 determines whether or not a reply notification has been received (step S26). The mobile terminal 143 transmits a reply notification to the sensor box 119 in response to the search signal.

In step S26, when the wireless communication device 107 receives the reply notification, the wireless communication device 107 transmits room information to the mobile terminal 143 (step S27). When the wireless communication device 107 receives the reply notification, the wireless communication device 107 detects the entry and exit of the owner of the portable terminal 143 . Then, room information is transmitted to the portable terminal 143 based on the detection result. It is assumed that the living room information is stored in advance in the storage device 108 or the like.

Then, the processing is terminated (END).
FIG. 15 is a flow diagram illustrating display of an input screen of the mobile terminal 143 based on the second embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 15, control device 221 determines whether or not a search signal has been received from wireless communication device 107 (step S30). Specifically, control device 221 determines whether or not a search signal has been received from wireless communication device 107 .

In step S30, the control device 221 maintains the state of step S30 when no search signal is received.

On the other hand, in step S30, when the search signal is received (YES in step S30), control device 221 transmits a reply notification to sensor box 119 (step S32).

Next, the control device 221 determines whether room information has been received from the sensor box 119 (step S34).

In step S34, if control device 221 does not receive room information from sensor box 119 (NO in step S34), the state of step S34 is maintained.

On the other hand, when control device 221 receives room information from sensor box 119 in step S34 (YES in step S34), it displays an input screen (step S36). Specifically, the mobile terminal 143 displays an input screen prompting the input of information regarding the sleep state of the subject shown in FIG.

Then, the processing is terminated (END).
With this processing, the input screen is automatically displayed, which simplifies the caregiver's operation work and is highly convenient.

(Embodiment 3)
A case where the caregiver enters incorrect information about the living room will be described.

FIG. 16 is a flow diagram illustrating display of an input screen of the mobile terminal 143 based on the third embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 16, control device 221 determines whether or not a search signal has been received from wireless communication device 107 (step S40). Specifically, control device 221 determines whether or not a search signal has been received from wireless communication device 107 .

In step S40, the control device 221 maintains the state of step S40 when no search signal is received.

On the other hand, in step S40, when the search signal is received (YES in step S40), control device 221 transmits a reply notification to sensor box 119 (step S42).

Next, the control device 221 determines whether room information has been received from the sensor box 119 (step S44).

In step S44, if control device 221 does not receive room information from sensor box 119 (NO in step S44), the state of step S44 is maintained.

On the other hand, if control device 221 receives room information from sensor box 119 in step S44 (YES in step S44), control device 221 next determines whether there is a command input ( step S46). Specifically, the caregiver inputs desired room information. As an example, enter "207".

In step S46, the control device 221 maintains the state of step S46 if no command is input.

On the other hand, in step S46, if there is a command input (YES in step S46), control device 221 displays an input screen (step S48). Specifically, the input screen of FIG. 11 is displayed on the display 226 . According to the input of room information (room No. 207), an input screen for the room information (room No. 207) is displayed.

Next, the control device 221 executes input processing (step S50). The caregiver executes predetermined input processing in accordance with the operation instructions on the input screen of FIG. 11 . Select sleep and awake states, input vital information, and so on.

Next, the control device 221 confirms the information input with respect to the room information (step S52).

Then, the control device 221 determines whether or not the input information for the living room information is correct (step S54). Specifically, it is determined whether or not the living room information input by the caregiver at the time of inputting the command matches the living room information received by the sensor box 119 . For example, it determines whether or not the room information (“207”) input by the caregiver when entering the command matches the room information (“207”) received by the sensor box 119, and if they match, determines that the input information is correct. On the other hand, for example, if the living room information (“208”) input by the caregiver at the time of inputting the command does not match the living room information (“207”) received by the sensor box 119, the input information is judged to be incorrect. to decide.

If control device 221 determines in step S54 that the input information for the living room information is correct (YES in step S54), then it determines whether or not there is an instruction to save (step S58).

In step S58, if there is no instruction to save (NO in step S58), control device 221 returns to step S50 and repeats the above process.

When control device 221 determines in step S58 that there is an instruction to save (YES in step S16), it transmits the input processed data to management server 200 (step S60).

Then, the processing is terminated (END).
On the other hand, when control device 221 determines in step S54 that the input information for room information is incorrect (NO in step S54), it displays a warning (step S56). Specifically, an error message such as "the input information may differ" may be displayed as a warning. Alternatively, an error sound or the like may be output.

Then, the process proceeds to step S58. Subsequent processing is the same.
With this processing, if there is a possibility that the input information is erroneous, it is possible to re-enter appropriate input information by notifying a warning, thereby preventing an input error in the input information.

It should be considered that the embodiments disclosed this time are illustrative in all respects and not restrictive. The scope of the present invention is indicated by the scope of the claims rather than the above description, and is intended to include all modifications within the meaning and range of equivalents of the scope of the claims.
