<Configuration of data management device 1>
An embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail below using FIGS. 1 to 3. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a data management device 1 according to Embodiment 1 of the present disclosure. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of a display on the display unit 52 when the image of the subject's face is not stored in the storage unit 4. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of a display on the display unit 52 when confirming with the user using the data management device 1 whether or not to send related information to the target person.

The data management device 1 according to the first embodiment is a device that acquires related information, such as measurement information and analysis information, from a subject from whom the related information is to be acquired, and provides the acquired related information to the subject or a related person. Hereinafter, in this specification, the term "subject" refers to a person from whom the related information is acquired. The related information is information about the subject, such as the subject's biological information or information input by the subject to a specific device. The details of the related information will be described later. The data management device 1 constitutes a data management system together with an information processing terminal owned by the subject or a related person to which the related information is to be provided. As an example, the data management device 1 is a smartphone (mobile information terminal). As shown in FIG. 1, the data management device 1 includes an imaging unit 2, a control unit 3, a storage unit 4, and a providing unit 5. Hereinafter, in the first embodiment, a configuration in which the data management device 1 measures the blood pressure value (biological information) of the subject based on an image of the subject's face will be described as an example.

The imaging unit 2 captures an image of the subject through the operation of a user using the data management device 1, and acquires image data of the subject's face. The acquired image data of the subject's face is preferably a video. For example, the imaging unit 2 is a camera including an image sensor (e.g., a CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) or a CCD (Charge-Coupled Device)) and a lens. The imaging unit 2 further includes a commonly used RGB Bayer array color filter, preferably a color filter suitable for observing increases and decreases in blood volume, such as RGBCy or RGBIR.

The control unit 3 includes a subject information acquisition unit 31 , a related information acquisition unit 32 , a specification unit 33 , a specification result acquisition unit 34 , a linking unit 35 , and an information provision unit 36 . The target person information acquisition unit 31 acquires target person information, which is information used to identify the target person. Specifically, the subject information acquisition unit 31 acquires image data of the subject's face imaged by the imaging unit 2 as subject information. Further, the subject information acquisition unit 31 analyzes the acquired image data and detects the image of the subject included in the image indicated by the image data.

The target person information acquisition unit 31 sets identification information for identifying the target person in the detected image of the target person, and combines the image data with the identification information of the target person's image included in the image indicated by the image data. are associated and output to the related information acquisition unit 32 and identification unit 33. The identification information is, for example, a serial number of the image of the target person detected by the target person information acquisition unit 31. The identification information is information used by the linking unit 35 (described later) to link related information (described later) and personal information (described later) of the candidate to whom the target person corresponds.

The related information acquisition unit 32 acquires target person information and identification information set in the target person information from the target person information acquisition unit 31. The related information acquisition unit 32 calculates related information that is information related to the target person based on the acquired target person information (the image of the target person's face captured by the imaging unit 2).

As an example, the related information acquisition unit 32 calculates biological information of the target person as related information by analyzing the acquired facial image of the target person. Specifically, the related information acquisition unit 32 calculates the subject's pulse wave (pulse wave signal) based on the acquired image, and calculates the subject's blood pressure value from the pulse wave. A known method is used to calculate the pulse wave and blood pressure value from the image of the subject's face. Further, the related information acquisition unit 32 outputs the calculated related information and identification information of the target person to the linking unit 35.

Note that the biological information as the related information calculated or acquired by the related information acquisition unit 32 is not limited to the blood pressure value of the subject. For example, the related information acquisition unit 32 may acquire the subject's breathing rate, heart rate, pulse wave, or SpO ₂ as the related information.

The identification unit 33 acquires target person information and identification information set on the image of the target person from the target person information acquisition unit 31 . The identifying unit 33 compares the image of the candidate's face included in the plurality of candidate information (described later) stored in the storage unit 4 with the acquired target person information, and identifies whether the target person information is a plurality of candidates. Identify which candidate information corresponds to the information. For this identification, for example, the method described in Patent Document 1 can be used.

Specifically, the identifying unit 33 selects one of the features extracted from the subject's face, chest, etc. from the acquired image, biometric features, gate patterns related to personal recognition based on gate analysis, and texture features related to texture recognition. Extract the above features. The identification unit 33 determines which candidate the target person corresponds to, or which candidate the target person corresponds to, by using the best matching method that searches for the best match between the extracted characteristics and the characteristics included in the candidate information. Specify whether or not. Further, the identification unit 33 outputs the identification result to the identification result acquisition unit 34 together with the identification information of the image of the candidate.

As a result of the identification, if the target person information does not correspond to any candidate information, the identifying unit 33 controls the display unit 52 to newly display an image of the target person's face as candidate information as shown in FIG. A screen may be displayed that prompts the user of the data management device 1 to store the information in the storage unit 4. When the user images a new subject using the imaging unit 2 or selects an image already stored in the storage unit 4, the identifying unit 33 selects the newly captured image or the selected image. The image thus obtained is stored in the storage unit 4 as new candidate information. Also, at this time, the specifying unit 33 prompts the user to input personal information corresponding to the new candidate information or to select personal information stored in the storage unit 4. When the user inputs or selects personal information, the specifying unit 33 associates the personal information with new candidate information and stores it in the storage unit 4.

The identification result acquisition unit 34 acquires the identification result and identification information from the identification unit 33. The specific result acquisition unit 34 outputs the acquired specific result and identification information to the linking unit 35. In addition, in the example mentioned above, the identification part 33 demonstrated the structure which exists inside the data management apparatus 1. However, the identification unit 33 may exist outside the data management device 1, such as an external server that can communicate with the data management device 1, for example. In this case, the target person information acquisition unit 31 transmits the image of the target person's face and identification information to the identification unit 33 via the communication unit 51, and the identification result acquisition unit 34 sends the identification information to the identification unit 33 via the communication unit 51. Obtain identification results and identification information from.

The linking unit 35 acquires the relevant information and identification information of the target person from the relevant information acquiring unit 32. Further, the linking unit 35 acquires the specific result and identification information from the specific result obtaining unit 34 . Furthermore, the linking unit 35 refers to the personal information of a plurality of people stored in the storage unit 4 and acquires the personal information corresponding to the candidate information indicated by the acquired identification result. Here, the personal information acquired by the linking unit 35 is, for example, the email address of the candidate to whom the target person corresponds. The linking unit 35 links related information with personal information corresponding to an image of a candidate whose identification information matches the identification information of the related information. The linking unit 35 outputs the linked relevant information and personal information of the target person to the information providing unit 36. Further, the linking unit 35 records related information and personal information linked to each other in the storage unit 4. In this way, by adding identification information to the image of the target person included in the image, even if there are multiple targets, it is possible to appropriately link the relevant information and personal information of the target person.

The information providing unit 36 acquires related information and personal information that are linked together from the linking unit 35. The information providing unit 36 provides the acquired related information to the subject based on the personal information. Here, "provide based on personal information" means, for example, when the personal information is the name of the candidate who is the target person, the information providing unit 36 controls the display unit 52 as the providing unit 5, which will be described later. , to display relevant information along with the candidate's name. Alternatively, in the case where the personal information is the email address of the target candidate, "providing based on the personal information" means, for example, that the information providing unit 36 sends an email via the communication unit 51 as the providing unit 5. The method is to send related information in the form of a mobile information terminal to a mobile information terminal owned by the target person.

When transmitting the related information in email format to a mobile information terminal owned by the target person, the information providing unit 36 controls the display unit 52 and confirms whether or not to transmit the related information, as shown in FIG. You may also display the following. The user can use an input unit (not shown) to input to the information providing unit 36 that he or she wishes to receive related information or does not wish to receive the related information.

Candidate information and personal information corresponding to the candidate information are recorded in the storage unit 4. As an example, the storage unit 4 is a telephone directory, and candidate information and personal information are stored in association with each other for each individual registered in the telephone directory. However, the data management device 1 does not necessarily need to include the storage unit 4, and may send and receive necessary information to and from an external storage device that stores candidate information and personal information.

Candidate information is information indicating a plurality of candidates set in advance as candidates for the target person. When the identifying unit 33 identifies the target person using an image of the target person's face, the candidate information includes an image of the face of the candidate who is a candidate for the target person. Further, when the identifying unit 33 identifies the target person using the target person's fingerprint, the candidate information is the candidate's fingerprint.

Personal information is information corresponding to candidate information, and is information for the information providing unit 36 to provide related information to the corresponding candidate using the personal information. For example, the personal information is information regarding the candidate's contact information, and specifically may be the candidate's email address, phone number, or SNS (Social Networking Service) account. Furthermore, the storage unit 4 may store the candidate's name as the candidate's personal information.

The providing unit 5 provides the relevant information to the subject under the control of the information providing unit 36. Specifically, the providing unit 5 includes a communication unit 51 that transmits related information by, for example, wireless communication, and/or a display unit 52 that displays related information. In addition, the provision part 5 is not limited to what was mentioned above, It just needs to be able to provide relevant information to a target person.

<Example of processing flow of data management device 1>
FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing an example of the flow of processing performed by the data management device 1 according to the first embodiment. An example of the flow of processing (data management method) of the data management device 1 according to the first embodiment will be described below with reference to FIG. 4. In the example shown in FIG. 4, the data management device 1 calculates the blood pressure value of the subject as related information from the image of the subject's face, and provides the blood pressure value to the subject by sending an email.

First, the subject information acquisition unit 31 acquires an image of the subject's face via the imaging unit 2 (S1) (target person information acquisition step). The target person information acquisition unit 31 sets identification information in the acquired face image of the target person, and outputs the target person face image and the set identification information to the related information acquisition unit 32 and the identification unit 33.

The identifying unit 33 determines whether the acquired facial image of the target person corresponds to any candidate information (S2). If the image of the target person's face corresponds to any candidate information (YES in S2), the identification unit 33 identifies the identified candidate information and the identification information set in the image used for identification. The result is output to the result acquisition unit 34. The specific result acquisition unit 34 acquires candidate information and identification information (specific result acquisition step), and outputs the candidate information and identification information to the linking unit 35.

On the other hand, if the target person's face image does not correspond to any candidate information (NO in S2), the identification unit 33 acquires new candidate information based on the user's operation, and and the personal information input or selected by the user are linked and registered in the storage unit 4 (S3). After that, the process returns to S1. Note that after the process in S3, the process may return to the process in S2. Further, after the process in S3, the process may proceed to the process in S4. When proceeding to the process of S4 after the process of S3, the process proceeds on the assumption that the subject whose face image was acquired in S1 corresponds to a candidate newly registered in the storage unit 4.

Upon acquiring the image of the subject's face, the related information acquisition unit 32 calculates the blood pressure value of the subject based on the image (S4) (related information acquisition step). The related information acquisition unit 32 outputs the calculated blood pressure value and the identification information set in the image used for the calculation to the linking unit 35. Note that S4 may be executed before S2 and S3, or may be executed in parallel.

When the linking unit 35 acquires the identified candidate information and identification information from the identification result acquisition unit 34, it acquires the email address of the candidate as personal information stored in association with the candidate information (S5). Next, when the linking unit 35 acquires the blood pressure value and identification information from the related information acquisition unit 32, it links the personal information and the blood pressure value based on the identification information acquired from the identification result acquisition unit 34 and the identification information acquired from the related information acquisition unit 32 (S6) (linking step). The linking unit 35 outputs the mutually linked personal information and blood pressure value to the information provision unit 36.

When the information providing unit 36 acquires the personal information and the blood pressure value that are linked to each other, the information providing unit 36 controls the display unit 52 to display a screen that allows the user to select whether or not he or she wishes to transmit the blood pressure value. Further, the information providing unit 36 determines whether or not there is an input indicating that the subject wishes to transmit the blood pressure value of the subject (S7). When the user inputs that he/she wishes to send the blood pressure value of the target person (YES in S7), the information providing unit 36 sends the blood pressure value of the target person to the target person based on the email address of the target person. (S8) (information provision step). On the other hand, if the user inputs that he does not wish to transmit the subject's blood pressure value (NO in S7), the information providing unit 36 does not transmit the subject's blood pressure value and ends the process. Alternatively, the information providing unit 36 controls the display unit 52 to display the subject's blood pressure value.

<Effects of data management device 1>
The data management device 1 according to the first embodiment includes a related information acquisition section 32, a specifying section 33, a linking section 35, and an information providing section 36. With this configuration, at the stage when the data management device 1 acquires the relevant information that is information related to the target person, even if it is unknown who the target person corresponds to the relevant information, the data management device 1 can identify the identified target person. It is possible to link information with the relevant information and provide (feedback) the relevant information to the target person or his/her related parties based on the personal information.

Further, the storage unit 4 of the data management device 1 stores contact information as personal information of the candidate. Thereby, the data management device 1 can provide related information based on the contact information of the candidate to whom the target person corresponds.

The related information acquisition unit 32 also acquires related information about the subject based on an image of the subject. Therefore, the data management device 1 does not require the use of an external device, such as a blood pressure monitor, and can acquire related information simply by capturing an image of the subject, thereby reducing the possibility that the subject will feel bothered when acquiring related information. The related information acquisition unit 32 can also acquire biometric information as related information by analyzing an image of the subject's face.

In addition, the candidate information includes an image of the candidate's face, and the candidate information is identified by comparing the target person's face image with the candidate's face image included in the candidate information. be exposed. Thereby, the data management device 1 can identify the target person based on the captured image of the target person's face and the image of the candidate's face.

In addition, if the personal information is an email address and the information providing unit 36 uses the email address to send related information in email format, the target person can receive the relevant information from all terminals that can access the email. can be confirmed.

Furthermore, recently, in many cases, the storage unit 4 is pre-stored with information such as a photograph of an individual's face and contact information related to the individual, for example as a telephone directory. In such a case, the data management device 1 can identify the target person by referring to the telephone directory. Therefore, since there is no need to register candidate information and personal information corresponding to the candidate information again, usability of the data management device 1 can be improved.

<Modified example>
When providing newly acquired relevant information to a target person, the information providing unit 36 refers to the storage unit 4 based on the personal information linked to the relevant information and acquires the recorded relevant information. Good too. Further, the information providing unit 36 may provide the acquired related information in the storage unit 4 and the newly acquired related information to the subject. Thereby, the target person can confirm the related information for multiple times at once. Further, the information providing unit 36 may provide multiple times of related information as data indicating changes over time.

The information providing unit 36 may store the related information and the linked personal information in a cloud or an external server. In this case, the information providing unit 36 provides the subject with a URL or the like for accessing the related information stored in the cloud or external server.

When multiple subjects appear in the image captured by the imaging unit 2, the subject information acquisition unit 31 may set individual identification information for the image of each subject. In this case, the related information acquisition unit 32 acquires related information for each subject's image, and the identification unit 33 identifies each subject's image. This allows the linking unit 35 to link the related information of each subject with the personal information of the candidate to which each subject corresponds based on the individual identification information. Therefore, even when there are multiple subjects, the data management device 1 can acquire the related information of each subject and provide the related information to each corresponding subject.

In the above-described first embodiment, the identification unit 33 identifies the subject based on an image of the subject's face. However, the identification unit 33 may identify the subject based on the subject's fingerprint, vein, or voiceprint. In this case, the data management device 1 includes not only the imaging unit 2 but also an acquisition unit that can acquire the subject's fingerprint, vein, or voiceprint, and the subject information acquisition unit 31 acquires subject information from the acquisition unit. In addition, the memory unit 4 stores the candidate's fingerprint, vein, or voiceprint as candidate information.

Further, the data management device 1 may include a contact type sensor for detecting the subject's pulse wave. In this case, the subject information acquisition unit 31 acquires the subject's pulse wave via the sensor.

Furthermore, in the first embodiment described above, the related information acquisition unit 32 acquired the image of the target person's face from the target person information acquisition unit 31 as information for acquiring related information. However, the related information acquisition unit 32 does not necessarily need to acquire the image of the target person's face from the target person information acquisition unit 31. For example, if the data management device 1 includes a contact sensor for detecting a pulse wave in addition to the imaging unit 2, the subject information acquisition unit 31 acquires an image of the subject's face and provides related information. The acquisition unit 32 may acquire a pulse wave from a contact sensor as the related information.

In this case, the data management device 1 identifies the subject based on the image of the subject's face captured by the imaging unit 2, and acquires the pulse wave obtained from the contact sensor as related information. In this case, the subject information acquisition section 31 outputs only the identification information set in the image of the subject's face to the related information acquisition section 32, and the related information acquisition section 32 outputs the identification information set to the subject's pulse wave. Link information. Thereby, the linking unit 35 can link the related information and the subject's personal information based on the identification information.

<Effects of data management device 1A>
Generally, when acquiring biological information of a subject based on images, specifically when calculating blood pressure values based on images, since the absolute value of pressure cannot be obtained, the detected pulse wave signal An estimation model is required to convert this into blood pressure values. The relationship between the pulse wave propagation velocity calculated from the pulse wave signal and the blood pressure value changes depending on gender and age. Therefore, the appropriate estimation model differs depending on the gender and age of the subject.

Here, the data management device 1A according to Embodiment 2 of the present disclosure includes a biological information measuring section 37. Further, the biometric information measuring unit 37 uses the attribute information of the candidate to whom the subject corresponds, which is stored in the storage unit 4, to generate biometric information as related information of the subject. Specifically, an estimated model is selected based on the age and gender of the subject, and the blood pressure value of the subject is calculated based on the estimated model. This makes it possible to improve the accuracy of the calculated biological information (blood pressure value).

<Modified example>
The storage unit 4 of the data management device 1A stores information other than the age and gender of the candidate as attribute information of the candidate (e.g., whether the candidate is the owner of the data management device 1A, information related to the candidate, etc.). (contact information, etc.) may be stored in association with the candidate information. For example, if the target person identified by the identifying unit 33 is stored as the owner of the data management device 1A, related information is displayed on the display unit 52, and if not, related information is transmitted based on personal information. The method of providing related information may be changed depending on the attributes of the target person. Furthermore, if the target person is a minor, an elderly person, or another person who is assumed to be inexperienced in handling the data management device 1A and related information, the information providing unit 36 will The related information may be sent to the contact information of the person concerned (an information terminal owned by the person concerned).
