Description

The present invention relates to a point award system, a point award method, and a point award program.

Various systems have been developed for awarding points that can be exchanged for prizes or electronic money to target users. Recently, such point awarding systems are also being used in construction-related fields.

For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a point granting system that supports architectural designers' designs. The point granting system consists of a web server, a project database for designers to register their projects, and when a contractor who constructs a registered project places an order for a product supplied by a manufacturer, it receives cash as compensation. and software that gives designers points that can be exchanged for other items.

Specifically, the identification processing unit 102 identifies event participants who are workers belonging to the contractor and who are able to participate in the event based on the event information and the construction system. The identification processing unit 102 stores information on the identified event participants in the storage unit 12 .

As shown in FIG. 7(b), event participant information includes event ID of event information, construction system ID of construction system information, information regarding participants (user IDs), etc., and is managed by participant ID. .

Note that the identification processing unit 102 can also perform identification processing of event participants who can participate in the event among the workers based on the user information and the event information. In this case, in FIG. 7(b), there is no need to link and manage the construction system ID.

For example, event participants may be limited to all workers entering the construction site, workers from a specific job type or company, or one (or two to four) participants. Participants vary depending on the type of event, such as when only 100 workers are allowed to participate. In this embodiment, event participants are identified using event information and construction systems for a plurality of events with different participation conditions.

In addition, the identification processing unit 102 can also perform identification processing on event participants using the subordination relationship of contractors in the construction system. With this configuration, event participants can be easily and accurately identified even when there is a complicated relationship between contractors at a construction site.

As mentioned above, workers from many companies and industries come and go at the construction site, and identifying event participants at the construction site under such circumstances requires extremely complicated processing. Therefore, in the present embodiment, event participants can be identified easily and quickly in an event related to a construction site by using the construction system to identify event participants.

In addition, the organizer can freely register user information and event information via the organizer terminal 3, so even if there is a complicated situation between contractors at a construction site, etc., the organizer can freely identify event participants. can be determined.

<Determination of points>
In S205, the point determining unit 103 of the information processing device 10 determines conditions for granting points to event participants for each event based on the point information. The point determining unit 103 can also determine the number of points to be given to event participants.

As shown in FIG. 7C, grant condition information regarding point grant conditions includes an event ID, point information, grant conditions, points to be awarded to event participants, etc., and is managed by a grant condition ID. Note that the provision condition information does not necessarily need to be managed independently, and can be managed, for example, by being included in the event information.

For example, in FIG. 7(c), the granting condition ID50001 manages the point granting conditions for the cleaning event (event ID40001), and here the condition (granting condition) for granting 100P points to all participants is managed. Therefore, the points awarded to event participants will be "100P".

In addition, in FIG. 7(c), with grant condition ID 50002, it is possible to grant 100P or 200P to event participants for the safety tournament event (event ID 40002), and as a grant condition, it is possible to grant 100P or 200P to event participants who have related qualifications. This is a condition for awarding 200P points. In addition to this, award condition ID50003 is a condition for awarding 100P points to event participants who do not have the relevant qualifications for the safety event.

In other words, according to the granting conditions ID50002 and 50003, 200P points will be given to event participants who have the relevant qualifications in the safety event, and 100P points will be given to event participants who do not have the relevant qualifications. Grant conditions are determined.

As described above, in this embodiment, the overall rules and conditions for awarding points to each event are shown in the event information (point information) in FIG. Conditions for awarding points can be determined. Point determining unit 103 determines conditions regarding points to be awarded to each event participant (referred to as participant granting conditions) based on user information and event information. The organizer can freely determine event information via the organizer terminal 3.

The participant granting conditions in this embodiment include failure conditions in which points are not granted to event participants. This failure condition can be determined by input based on the organizer's judgment (input from the organizer to the point determination section). Although details will be described later, this failure condition makes it possible to not award points to one or more event participants who participated in the same event if the event participant falls under the failure condition.

For example, with award condition ID 50006 in FIG. 7(c), a maximum of 500 points can be given to event participants for the improvement proposal event (event ID 40003), but if there are no points for improvement, no points will be given. It is said that The condition of this granting condition ID50006 is the above-mentioned failure condition.

In this way, in this embodiment, points are determined for each event based on input based on the organizer's judgment, or even for the same event, points are determined for each participant according to the conditions and responses of the event participants. can be freely determined as different.

<Granting points>
Next, the provision of points to event participants will be explained. In S206, the point management unit 104 of the information processing device 10 receives participation information indicating that the event participant actually participated in the event from the event participant (user terminal 2). The point management unit 104 compares this participation information with the authentication information included in the event information stored in the storage unit 12.

For example, authentication information includes characteristic information based on sounds associated with each event (sound information including sounds), location information indicating the location of the event, face images of event participants, conditions for participation in the event, user information, etc. can be used.

Then, in S207, the point management unit 104 awards points to the event participant based on the verification result and the awarding conditions (or point information). The points given to the participants are managed as point management information.

As shown in FIG. 8(a), the point management information includes information such as user ID, participation information, granting condition ID, authentication information, authentication result, provisional points described later, fraud check result information, and granted points. It is managed for each participant ID.

In the present embodiment, the information processing device 10 (point management unit 104) receives participation information using an inaudible sound signal (sound with a wavelength in a range inaudible to humans) transmitted from the organizer terminal 3.

Specifically, the user terminal 2 used by the event participant receives a participation signal output from the organizer terminal 3 used by the event organizer. Then, the point management unit 104 receives participation information (or the number of points to be given) corresponding to the participation signal from the user terminal 2.

Further, the user terminal 2 receives an inaudible sound signal output from the organizer terminal 3 at the event location. Then, the point management unit 104 receives participation information corresponding to the inaudible sound signal from the user terminal 2, collates this participation information with the authentication information included in the event information in the storage unit 12, and uses the verification result as Points can be awarded to event participants based on the point information.

Furthermore, the point management unit 104 receives user identification information for identifying the user terminal 2 along with participation information from the user terminal 2, collates it with the user identification information included in the user information, and compares the verification result with the participation information. Points can also be awarded to event participants based on the verification results with authentication information and point information. Note that the user identification information may be, for example, an ID unique to the user terminal, location information, or other information that can identify the user terminal 2. For example, a user ID or the like may be used as the user identification information.

Further, as the participation information, facial images of event participants captured by an imaging device installed at the venue of the event can also be used as the participation information. In this case, the authentication information includes an identification image that can identify the worker. The point management unit 104 can receive a face image from the user terminal 2 and/or the imaging device, match the face image with an identification image, and award points to event participants based on the result of the match.

As shown in FIG. 8(b), the admission management information includes admission information such as a face image, user ID, authentication information, authentication results, provisional points described later, fraud check results, granted points, etc. can be managed with. Note that it is not necessary to always use the face image included in the admission management information; the point management unit 104 receives a face image from the user terminal 2, matches the face image with the identification image, and assigns an event based on the comparison result. Points can be awarded to participants.

Here, an example of the flow of point allocation using inaudible sounds in this embodiment will be explained. FIG. 9 shows an example of the flow up to point award using the point award system according to this embodiment. In FIG. 9(1), a site manager holds an event such as a cleaning session at a construction site. At this stage, the worker who participated in the event does not know that points will be generated for the event.

Then, in FIG. 9(2), the site manager notifies the workers who participated in the event that points will be earned for participating in the event. Only at this stage does the operator know that a point will be generated for the event.

After the on-site manager makes an announcement, the on-site manager (organizer terminal 3) sends a confirmation link for event participation eligibility to the worker (user terminal 2) using an inaudible signal, as shown in Figure 9 (3). do. Specifically, the host terminal 3 outputs an inaudible sound signal. In FIG. 9 (4), when the user terminal 2 receives an inaudible sound signal from the organizer terminal 3, the event participant (user terminal 2) confirms event participation qualifications and detailed event information (implementation content). You can get a confirmation link (such as a URL) to do so.

In FIG. 9(5), provisional points (and/or participation information) are transmitted from the organizer terminal 3 by an inaudible signal based on the operation of the site manager. In FIG. 9(6), the user terminal 2 receives provisional points (participation information) from the organizer terminal 3 based on the operator's operation.

After that, in FIG. 9 (7), the point management unit 104 performs a fraud check process and a verification process to ensure that there is no fraud on the part of the worker, and if there are no problems, points are automatically awarded to event participants based on the conditions. Grant. For example, points can be awarded through regular badge processing once or multiple times a day.

In this embodiment, an event participant participates in an event without knowing whether or not points will be earned for the event, receives a notification that points will be awarded after the event, and executes the series of processes described above. Points will be awarded to event participants.

In this way, in this embodiment, by using the inaudible sound signal, the organizer can convey various information to a large number of event participants at once. In addition, since event participants do not know which events will give them points, it motivates them to participate in as many events as possible.Furthermore, event participants can easily earn points (and You can receive information such as participation information to prove that you have participated in the event.

<Point conversion process>
Points in this embodiment can be exchanged for prizes or electronic money. For example, the conversion processing unit 105 of the information processing device 10 receives a request to convert points into electronic money from the user terminal 2 used by an event participant.

Based on this conversion request, electronic money is given to the event participant via the user terminal 2. The conversion processing unit 105 calculates the number of points used for converting electronic money, and reduces the number of points held by the event participant according to the calculation result. This number of points can be managed using point management information.

<Display processing>
FIG. 10 shows an example of a display processing result on the organizer terminal 3 of this embodiment. As shown in the figure, a plurality of events are displayed on the administrator screen W10 of the organizer terminal 3, together with the sponsor category such as head office, branch office, and site, the event period, the total number of points, and the like.

As described above, the event information includes the organizer classification indicating the attributes of the event organizer (see FIG. 7(a)). Based on the event information and the construction system (or user information), the display processing unit 106 determines the event name related to the construction site, the total number of points based on the number of people who can participate in the event, and the sponsor classification for each event. Display processing is performed, and the result of the display processing is transmitted to the organizer terminal 3. By performing such display processing by the display processing unit 106, a person in charge belonging to the main contracting company can easily check the sponsor category along with the information of each event on the same screen.

Further, on the administrator screen W10, events can be narrowed down according to the sponsor category. Further, on the administrator screen W10, various types of narrowing down can be performed, such as order of near completion, order of most points, order of number of participants. When the display processing unit 106 performs such display processing, the organizer can easily search or confirm each event according to the conditions.

For example, on the administrator screen W10 in FIG. 10, when the organizer (site manager) at the main contracting company selects (touches) event 3, the display processing unit 106 displays detailed information on event 3 (event details screen W20). Then, the display processing result can be transmitted to the terminal 3 (the organizer can confirm detailed information of the event 3).

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 10, the event details screen W20 for event 3 includes a link transmission button for "sending a link to participants" and a participation approval button for "approving participants". There is.

For example, as shown in FIG. 11, when the organizer selects (touches) the link transmission button displayed on the organizer terminal 3, the screen switches from the event details screen W20 to the link transmission screen W30. On the link transmission screen W30, an inaudible sound signal is output from the organizer terminal 3. By this inaudible sound signal, a confirmation link indicating the details of the event, the number of points to be awarded, etc. is transmitted to the plurality of user terminals 2.

Similarly, as shown in FIG. 12, when the organizer selects (touches) the participation approval button displayed on the organizer terminal 3, the screen switches from the event details screen W20 to the approval screen W40. On the approval screen W40, an inaudible sound signal is output from the organizer terminal 3, and this inaudible sound signal informs the user terminal of the conditions for awarding points, provisional points (or points actually awarded), etc. for the event. 2.

In this manner, in this embodiment, by using the inaudible sound signal, necessary information can be transmitted all at once to a large number of event participants at the construction site based on the organizer's operation. In this embodiment, an inaudible sound signal is used to transmit necessary information from the organizer terminal 3 to the user terminal 2 at the construction site, but the present invention is not limited to this, and an audible sound signal or other signals may be used. You can also use

The technician screen W50 shown in FIG. 9 is an example of a screen on which detailed information of the event is displayed on the user terminal 2 after the worker receives the notification of point allocation in FIG. 9(4).

As shown in FIG. 13, the display processing unit 106 displays the event name such as event 3, the points given to event participants, the date and period of the event, the content of the event, etc. The results are sent to the user terminal 2. The display processing unit 106 uses the user information and event information to display the name of the event in which the event participant participated, the number of points awarded to the event participant for participating in the event, and the content of the event. , the results of the display processing can be transmitted to the user terminal 2.

In FIG. 13, a receive button for "receiving points" is provided on the technician screen W50. For example, as shown in FIG. 13, when an event participant selects (touches) the receive button displayed on the user terminal 2, the screen switches from the technician terminal W50 to the point acquisition screen W60. By displaying this point acquisition screen W60 at the construction site, event participants (user terminals 2) can receive participation information etc. via inaudible sound signals from the organizer terminal 3. When the stop button for "stop reception" is selected on the point acquisition screen W60 based on the user's operation, reception of the inaudible sound signal is stopped.

Further, for example, if the worker knows the event information in advance, that is, if the worker selects an event to participate in, the technician screen W50 will display a plurality of events as well as each event, as shown in FIG. The number of people recruiting for the event, the number of points, the period and date of the event, etc. will be displayed on the same screen. The display processing unit 106 can perform display processing on each piece of information using event information, user information, etc., and can transmit the display processing results to the user terminal 2.

The technician screen W50 in FIG. 14 can be narrowed down in various ways, such as in order of near completion, order of most points, order of number of participants. By the display processing unit 106 performing such display processing, the operator can easily confirm each event according to the conditions.

For example, on the technician screen W50 in FIG. 14, it is also possible to narrow down (select) events to be held today. In this case, information indicating that the event will be held today (for example, the "today" portion in FIG. 14) is displayed together with information about each event. In this way, by displaying the events to be held today according to the narrowing down of events to be held today, the worker can selectively participate in the events to be held on that day while considering his or her own work schedule.

As shown in FIG. 14, when an event participant selects (touches) a receive button for "receiving points" displayed on the user terminal 3, the screen switches from the technician screen W50 to the point acquisition screen W60. By displaying this point acquisition screen W60 at the construction site, event participants (user terminals 2) can receive participation information and the like via inaudible signals from the organizer terminal 3. By selecting a stop button for "stop reception" on the point acquisition screen W60, reception of the inaudible sound signal can be stopped.
