FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of the cause candidate table data. As shown in FIG. 3, the cause candidate table data referred to by the cause estimating unit 13 includes information indicating the psychosomatic state, cause candidates that can be the cause of the psychosomatic state, and a specific vehicle that defines the cause candidate. And information indicating a running state, an in-vehicle state, and a situation around the vehicle.
For example, when the state of mind and body is “tension”, the inter-vehicle distance (inter-vehicle time) indicating the running state of the vehicle, the overspeed, and the acceleration are set as possible causes, and the in-vehicle sound indicating the in-vehicle state is set. The presence or absence of is set. The inter-vehicle distance is expressed as an inter-vehicle time that is easily handled when the driver performs a driving operation. The inter-vehicle time can be calculated as inter-vehicle time = inter-vehicle distance / vehicle speed.

  Further, the “inter-vehicle distance” that is a cause candidate that can cause the psychosomatic state “tension” is specifically the case where the inter-vehicle time is less than 3.0 seconds. Similarly, the “excess speed” as a cause candidate is a case where the excess vehicle speed is 15.0 km / h or more. The cause candidate “acceleration” indicates that the number of sudden brakes derived from the acceleration of the vehicle is 1 / min or more. Furthermore, the cause candidate “presence / absence of in-vehicle sound” is a case in which there is no in-vehicle sound. In this way, by defining the cause candidates with specific numerical magnitude relationships, it is possible to prevent the cause candidates from being erroneously estimated.

  The cause candidates include information indicating the situation around the vehicle in addition to the running state and the in-vehicle state of the vehicle shown in FIG. For example, when the road width is less than a predetermined value as the situation around the vehicle, it is defined as a cause candidate that can cause the psychosomatic state “tension”. In this case, the width of the road on which the vehicle is traveling or the road (road on the guide route) from which the vehicle is traveling can be determined from the map data (road data) and the vehicle position in the map database.

Next, the operation will be described.
FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the operation of the mobile information device according to the first embodiment. The cause candidate that may cause the passenger's mind-body state is presented along this FIG. This section describes the analysis of the effects of various actions and the presentation of the results.
First, the biological information detecting unit 3 sequentially detects the passenger's biological information (step ST1).
However, if biometric information can be detected at a plurality of seats, the user is allowed to select which seat the measurement is to be performed at before the step ST1.

When the biometric information of the passengers detected by the biometric information detection unit 3 is input, the biometric information analysis unit 11 collects information indicating the change tendency of the biometric information read from the storage unit 7 and the corresponding psychosomatic state. With reference to the table data, the psychosomatic state of the passenger is estimated from the passenger's biological information detected by the biological information detecting unit 3 (step ST2).
For example, in the psychosomatic state table data, the psychosomatic state corresponding to the case where the increase in the heart rate per unit time is a predetermined value or more, or when the increase in the heart rate by a predetermined number or more than the normal heart rate (passenger is uncomfortable) “Tension” is set as the state of mind and body).
In addition, as a normal heart rate, the average value of the heart rate when the own vehicle is stopped, the heart rate measured before the start of running, or the average value of the heart rate when running for a certain period of time. Can be mentioned.

The biological information analysis unit 11 determines whether the change tendency of the passenger's biological information sequentially detected by the biological information detection unit 3 corresponds to the mind-body state set in the mind-body state table data, that is, the passenger's mind-body state. Then, it is determined whether or not the state has changed to the “mental state indicating uncomfortable” set in the physical state table data (step ST3).
Here, if it does not change to the mind-body state which shows that it is unpleasant (step ST3; NO), it will return to step ST1 and will repeat the above-mentioned process.

When the state changes to a state of mind and body indicating unpleasantness (step ST3; YES), the biological information analysis unit 11 notifies the cause estimation unit 13 of information indicating the state of mind and body.
When the cause estimation unit 13 receives notification from the biological information analysis unit 11 that the passenger has changed to a psychosomatic state indicating that the passenger is uncomfortable, the current state (or immediately preceding) of the vehicle's running state, in-vehicle state, and The situation around the host vehicle is input from the situation information analysis unit 12.
Next, the cause estimating unit 13 refers to the cause candidate table data read from the storage unit 7, the current state of mind and body of the fellow passenger, the current (or immediately preceding) traveling state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state or A cause candidate matching the situation around the host vehicle is searched (step ST4).

Here, when there is no cause candidate in the cause candidate data table that matches the current state of mind and body of the passenger, the current (or immediately preceding) traveling state of the own vehicle, the in-vehicle state, or the situation around the own vehicle (step ST5). NO), returning to step ST1, and repeating the above-described processing.
When a cause candidate matching the current state of mind and body of the passenger, the current (or immediately preceding) traveling state of the vehicle, the in-vehicle state or the situation around the own vehicle is in the cause candidate data table (step ST5; YES) The cause estimator 13 outputs to the information presenter 9 a cause candidate that is estimated to have caused the current state of mind and body of the fellow passenger. The information presentation unit 9 notifies the driver of the cause candidate estimated by the cause estimation unit 13 by at least one of the visual and auditory presentation methods (step ST6).

  When the cause candidate is presented by the information presentation unit 9 (notification to the driver), the situation information analysis unit 12 starts the traveling state of the own vehicle acquired by the traveling information acquisition unit 4 and the in-vehicle information acquisition unit 5 from this time point. From the in-vehicle state of the host vehicle acquired by the vehicle, the map data in the map database stored in the storage unit 7 and the vehicle position acquired by the current location information acquisition unit 6 or the information around the vehicle position received by the communication unit 8 The running state of the own vehicle after being presented, the in-vehicle state and the situation around the own vehicle are continuously estimated. That is, the driving state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the host vehicle as a result of the driver performing the improvement action on the cause candidate are estimated.

Next, the effect analysis unit 14 determines which one of the cause candidates presented by the information presentation unit 9 according to the traveling state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the host vehicle estimated by the situation information analysis unit 12. It is determined whether or not the improvement behavior is implemented, and it is analyzed from the passenger's biological information detected by the biological information detection unit 3 whether or not the passenger's psychosomatic state has been improved by the improvement behavior (step ST7).
For example, biometric information indicating a comfortable psychosomatic state in which the current tendency of the passenger's biometric information changes according to the running state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the surrounding conditions of the host vehicle indicating improvement actions for the cause candidate When it comes to match the change tendency, it is determined that this improvement action is “effective”. In addition, when the change tendency is the same as before the cause candidate is presented, or when the change is further caused by the change tendency of the biological information indicating the unpleasant psychosomatic state set in the psychosomatic state table data, the improvement action is “effect “None” or “Deteriorated”.
The information presentation unit 9 sends the analysis result of the effect analysis unit 14 and the analysis result of the change tendency of the passenger's biological information at the present time to the driver by at least one of the visual and auditory presentation methods. Notification is made (step ST8).

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the analysis result of the change in the improvement action and the psychosomatic state with respect to the cause candidate. In the example shown in FIG. 5, the information presenting unit 9 inputs the analysis result of the change tendency of the passenger's biological information before inputting the cause candidate estimated by the cause estimating unit 13 or from the biological information analyzing unit 11. In the previous stage, an icon describing all the cause candidates registered in the cause candidate table data and an icon describing the analysis result of the change tendency of the predetermined biological information are displayed on the screen 9a of the display device. The display mode of the icon at this time is, for example, a character string indicating a cause candidate or biological information in a rectangular frame as shown in (1) of FIG.

After that, when the information presenting unit 9 inputs the cause candidate from the cause estimating unit 13 and the analysis result of the change tendency of the passenger's biometric information from the biometric information analyzing unit 11 through step ST6, the input cause candidate is input. For example, as shown in (2) of FIG. 5, the display mode of the icon corresponding to the biological information is changed to a thick frame and a warning color for alerting. Thus, by displaying the cause candidates that may cause the passenger's unpleasant mental and physical state in distinction from other candidates, the driver can easily take improvement actions.
Moreover, although the case where the cause candidate icon estimated by the cause estimating unit 13 is changed to a thick frame and a warning color to call attention has been shown, it is only necessary to distinguish the icon from other cause candidate icons. A display mode such as (enlarging) or blinking an icon may be adopted.

In the example of FIG. 5, “speed”, “distance between vehicles”, “brake” (number of sudden braking / min), and “accelerator” (acceleration number / min) are described as possible causes relating to the running state of the vehicle. The icons are displayed as a list of “travel situation improvement points” icons.
In addition, icons that indicate “cold” or “hot” indicating the in-vehicle temperature, “music presence / absence” in the vehicle, and “volume” indicating the playback volume are the “cause points for improving the interior space”. Listed as icons.
Furthermore, the analysis result of the change tendency of the passenger's biometric information of the preset items is displayed as an icon as information to be presented to the driver regardless of changes in the traveling state or the in-vehicle state of the host vehicle.
Here, “heart rate” indicating the heart rate per unit time of the passenger, “abnormal blood pressure value” determined from the blood pressure value of the passenger, and “fever” indicating the body temperature of the passenger measured by the body temperature sensor. The information is selected as information to be presented to the driver regardless of the traveling state and the in-vehicle state of the own vehicle, and these are listed as icons relating to the passenger's “notice of physical condition”.
In this way, information relating to the passenger's physical condition is set in advance as information to be presented regardless of the traveling state and in-vehicle state of the host vehicle, so that the driver can be accurately informed of sudden deterioration of the passenger's physical condition. Can be notified.

In step ST <b> 8, when the information presentation unit 9 inputs the analysis result by the effect analysis unit 14 and the analysis result of the change tendency of the biological information of the passenger at the present time, the icon describing the cause candidate according to the analysis result. And the display mode of the icon which described the analysis result of the change tendency of biometric information is changed as shown to (3)-(5) of FIG.
Here, the information presentation unit 9 changes the display mode of the “inter-vehicle distance” icon as shown in FIG. 5 (2) to notify the driver in step ST6, and the driver makes the “inter-vehicle distance” in step ST8. The case where the analysis result by the effect analysis part 14 when the improvement action regarding "is implemented" is input is mentioned as an example.

  First, when the effect analysis unit 14 recognizes from the traveling state of the host vehicle estimated by the situation information analysis unit 12 that the driver is performing an improvement action related to the “inter-vehicle distance”, an analysis of the effect of the improvement action is performed. Until the result is obtained, the information presenting unit 9 is notified that the improvement action regarding the “distance between vehicles” is being implemented. Upon receiving this notification, the information presentation unit 9 changes the display mode of the “vehicle distance” icon and presents that an improvement action regarding “vehicle distance” is being implemented. For example, as shown in (3) of FIG. 5, the color is the same as (1) and the icon is changed to a thick frame.

  After that, the information presentation unit 9 sequentially receives the analysis result of the effect of the improvement action from the effect analysis unit 14, and the change tendency of the passenger's biometric information changes to the change tendency of the biometric information indicating a comfortable psychosomatic state. When matching occurs, for example, as shown in FIG. 5 (4), the color within the thick frame (color different from (2)) in the display mode of (3) is changed, and the driver To inform that the current improvement action is effective.

On the other hand, when the change tendency of the passenger's biometric information is the same as before the cause candidate is presented, or when the biometric information showing the unpleasant psychosomatic state set in the psychosomatic state table data further changes For example, as shown in FIG. 5 (5), the information presentation unit 9 superimposes a dark color image in a thick frame in the display mode of (3) to make the improvement action “no effect” or “deteriorate”. Inform the driver that there is.
As described above, the information presenting unit 9 displays the cause candidate that may be a cause of the passenger's mind and body state as an icon image, and the passenger's mind and body state is improved based on the analysis result by the effect analysis unit 14. The display form of the icon image is changed depending on whether the image is improved or not improved.

  In addition, the information presentation part 9 will change the display mode shown in (4), and when the fixed time has elapsed, the improvement action for “vehicle distance” has been completed, and the “vehicle distance” icon is used as the original (1). The display mode shown in FIG. In addition, when the display mode shown in (5) is changed and a certain period of time has elapsed, the passenger's unpleasant mental and physical state is not caused by the “inter-vehicle distance”. The icon is returned to the original display mode shown in (1).

As described above, according to the first embodiment, the correspondence between the information presentation unit 9 that presents information to the driver of the own vehicle, and the cause / body state of the occupant and the cause candidates that can be the cause of the state of mind / body is shown. A storage unit 7 in which the cause candidate table data is stored, a biometric information analysis unit 11 that estimates the occupant's state of mind from the change tendency of the biometric information of the occupant detected by the biometric information detection unit 3, and a travel information acquisition unit 4 using the information indicating the traveling state of the host vehicle acquired by 4, the information indicating the in-vehicle state acquired by the in-vehicle information acquiring unit 5, the current position acquired by the current location information acquiring unit 6 and the map data of the map database, The situation information analysis unit 12 that estimates the running state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the host vehicle, and the cause candidate table data read from the storage unit 7, the situation information analysis unit 12 estimates Based on the traveling state of the vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the host vehicle, the cause estimating unit 13 that estimates the cause candidate that can be the cause of the mind and body state of the occupant estimated by the biological information analysis unit 11 and the cause estimating unit 13 The information presenting unit 9 presents the cause candidate to the driver, and then presents it to the driver based on the traveling state of the own vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the own vehicle estimated by the situation information analyzing unit 12. It is determined which of the cause candidates that has been improved and the improvement behavior is being implemented. From the change tendency of the occupant's biometric information detected by the biometric information detection unit 3, the occupant's psychosomatic state is determined by the improvement behavior. And an effect analysis unit 14 for analyzing whether or not the improvement is made.
By configuring in this way, it is possible to notify a cause candidate that may cause an uncomfortable mind and body state for the occupant of the moving body, and to recognize whether or not the occupant's mind and body state has been improved by the improvement action for the cause candidate.

  Further, according to the first embodiment, the information presenting unit 9 determines in advance the biometric information detected by the biometric information detection unit 3 in addition to the cause candidates that may be the cause of the mind and body state of the occupant of the own vehicle. The change tendency of the biometric information is presented to the driver. By doing so, it is possible to notify the driver of the deterioration of the physical condition of the occupant that does not depend on the traveling state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the host vehicle.

  Furthermore, according to the first embodiment, the information presentation unit 9 displays the cause candidate that may be the cause of the occupant's mind-body state as an icon image, and based on the analysis result by the effect analysis unit 14, the occupant's mind-body The display form of the icon image is changed depending on whether the state is improved or not. In this way, the driver can easily visually recognize the result of the improvement action.

For example, when the passenger's face and the direction of the line of sight are fixed toward a place (facility) around the vehicle for a predetermined time or more from the passenger's image captured by the in-vehicle camera constituting the biological information detection unit 3, Guess that the person was interested in the area around the car.

In addition, the cause estimation unit 13 according to the second embodiment detects the passenger detected by the biological information detection unit 3 when the biological information analysis unit 11 estimates that the passenger is interested in a place around the vehicle. From the map data of the map database stored in the storage unit 7 and the vehicle position acquired by the current location information acquisition unit 6 or the information about the vehicle position received by the communication unit 8 as a cause candidate Estimate surrounding locations (eg, facilities) that the passenger may be interested in.
For example, the location where the passenger's face or line of sight taken by the in-vehicle camera is estimated is estimated from the vehicle position and map data. Moreover, you may guess by image-recognizing the image of the place where the passenger's face and line of sight imaged with the camera outside the vehicle are facing.

  The facility information acquisition unit 16 acquires information on the surrounding location estimated by the cause estimation unit 13 from the map data of the map database stored in the storage unit 7 or from the outside via the communication unit 8. For example, using the facility name or place name indicating the surrounding place estimated by the cause estimating unit 13 as a search key, information related to the surrounding place is searched and received from the network via the communication unit 8.

In the second embodiment, the change tendency of the biometric information when the passenger, such as the face and the direction of the line of sight, is interested in a place around the own vehicle is shown to be interested in the surrounding place. It is registered in the mind and body state data table as information. The biometric information analysis unit 11 refers to the psychosomatic state data table, and when the change tendency of the biometric information of the fellow passenger detected by the biometric information detection unit 3 matches information indicating that the surrounding place is interested, Guess that the passenger was interested in the surrounding area.
In the cause candidate data table, information indicating that the user is interested in the surrounding place is registered, and if the corresponding surrounding place is specified, the place is registered in association with the information. .

Next, the operation will be described.

When the cause candidate matching the passenger's mind and body state, the traveling state of the own vehicle, the in-vehicle state, or the situation around the own vehicle is in the cause candidate data table (step ST5; YES), the cause estimating unit 13 is the biological information analyzing unit. 11 determines whether it is estimated that the passenger is interested in the surrounding place (step ST5-1).

If it is not estimated that the passenger is interested in the surrounding area (step ST5-1; NO), the process proceeds to step ST6, and the processes from step ST6 to step ST8 are executed.
On the other hand, when it is presumed that he / she is interested in the surrounding place (step ST5-1; YES), the cause estimating unit 13 registers the corresponding place around the vehicle position in the cause candidate data table. Check whether there is any.

When the location around the vehicle position is registered in the cause candidate data table, the facility information acquisition unit 16 acquires information about the location around the vehicle position read from the cause candidate data table and outputs the information to the information presentation unit 9 To do.
In addition, when the location around the vehicle position is not registered in the cause candidate data table, the cause estimation unit 13 receives the change tendency of the biological information of the passenger and the map data and the vehicle position or communication unit 8. Based on the information around the vehicle position, the surrounding location where the passenger is considered interested is estimated. The facility information acquisition unit 16 acquires information related to the surrounding location estimated by the cause estimation unit 13 and outputs the information to the information presentation unit 9.

  The information presenting unit 9 presents information related to the location input from the cause estimating unit 13 as information related to the surrounding location that the fellow passenger is interested in (step ST5-2). For example, in the case where map information related to a surrounding place is included in the map data, the facility information can be acquired by superimposing a facility icon on the map display and selecting the icon using the input unit 2. Like that.

  As described above, according to the second embodiment, since the facility information acquisition unit 16 that acquires the facility information around the current position of the host vehicle is further provided, the same effect as the first embodiment can be obtained. Information about the surrounding places that passengers are interested in can be presented.

Embodiment 3 FIG.
In the third embodiment, the psychosomatic state, the candidate for the cause, and the estimated result of the surrounding location where the person is interested are stored for each passenger, and the rider can ride with the driver without detecting the biological information of the passenger each time. The driver is encouraged to perform a driving operation that does not correspond to a cause that can cause an unpleasant mental and physical condition, and information about a surrounding location that the passenger is interested in is presented.
FIG. 8 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the mobile information device according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. The mobile information device 1B shown in FIG. 8 includes a personal data analysis unit 17 as a functional block of the control unit 10B in addition to the configuration shown in FIG.
The personal data analysis unit 17 stores, in the storage unit 7, personal data for each occupant, such as the state of mind and body of each occupant and the vehicle running state, in-vehicle state, and the situation around the vehicle that may cause the state of mind and body. When the use of the data is instructed, the information presenting unit 9 is specified by identifying the vehicle running state, the vehicle interior state, and the vehicle surrounding situation that may cause the occupant's mental and physical state from the personal data read from the storage unit 7. . In FIG. 8, the same components as those in FIG.

Next, the operation will be described.
(1) At the time of data collection FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing an operation (at the time of data collection) by the mobile information device according to the third embodiment.
First, the passenger uses the input unit 2 to select a registration data mode (step ST1a). As a result, the personal data analysis unit 17 shifts to an input waiting state for the identification value.
Next, the passenger inputs his / her identification value using the input unit 2 (step ST2a). As a result, the personal data analysis unit 17 performs personal authentication using the identification value of the fellow passenger, and when authenticated, notifies the information presenting unit 9 to that effect.
When the information presentation unit 9 receives the notification that the passenger is authenticated, the information presentation unit 9 displays a data collection button, a data use button, and a registration location button as a user interface that can be operated using the input unit 2.

  The fellow passenger uses the input unit 2 to select (instruct) the data collection button (step ST3a). Thereby, the personal data analysis unit 17 operates the biometric information analysis unit 11, the situation information analysis unit 12, and the facility information acquisition unit 16 with respect to the authenticated passenger, and responds to the change tendency of the authenticated passenger's biometric information. The state of mind and body and the traveling state or in-vehicle state (quantitative data) of the own vehicle at this time, or facility information in which the passenger is interested are acquired (step ST4a).

For example, when the authenticated passenger is the occupant A, the personal data analysis unit 17 estimates that the state of mind and body of the occupant A is “tension” from the analysis of the change tendency of the biometric information by the biometric information analysis unit 11. When the situation information analysis unit 12 obtains the inter-vehicle distance (inter-vehicle time) of the subject vehicle when the change in the biological information corresponding to “tension” is obtained, these are stored in the storage unit 7 as personal data of the occupant A. Save it.
Further, when the authenticated passenger is the occupant B, the personal data analysis unit 17 analyzes the change tendency of the biometric information by the biometric information analysis unit 11 in the mind and body state in which the occupant B is interested in the surrounding place. If it is presumed that there is a facility that the passenger is supposed to be interested in by the cause estimating unit 13, these are stored in the storage unit 7 as personal data of the passenger B.

Next, if the data stored in the storage unit 7 is facility information (step ST5a; YES), the personal data analysis unit 17 ends the data collection process.
If the data stored in the storage unit 7 is not facility information (step ST5a; NO), the personal data analysis unit 17 selects the center of the data indicating the traveling state or in-vehicle state of the host vehicle stored in the storage unit 7. A value, an average value, a maximum value, etc. are calculated, and representative values indicating the running state and in-vehicle state of the vehicle that can be the mind and body state of the passenger are determined and registered in the storage unit 7 (step ST6a). For example, in the case of the above-mentioned occupant A, the personal data analysis unit 17 calculates a median value, an average value, a maximum value, and the like of data indicating an inter-vehicle distance (inter-vehicle time) that is sequentially detected and stored in the traveling of the host vehicle. A representative value of the inter-vehicle distance (inter-vehicle time) that can be a “tension” state of the occupant A is determined.

(2) When Data is Used FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing an operation (when data is used) by the mobile information device according to Embodiment 3.
First, as in the case of data collection, the passenger selects the registered data mode using the input unit 2 (step ST1b). As a result, the personal data analysis unit 17 shifts to a state waiting for input of an identification value.
Next, the passenger inputs his / her identification value using the input unit 2 (step ST2b). As a result, the personal data analysis unit 17 performs personal authentication using the identification value of the fellow passenger, and when authenticated, notifies the information presenting unit 9 to that effect.
When the information presentation unit 9 receives the notification that the passenger is authenticated, the information presentation unit 9 displays a data collection button, a data use button, and a registration location button as a user interface that can be operated using the input unit 2.

  When the fellow passenger selects (instructs) the data use button using the input unit 2 (step ST3b; data use), the personal data analysis unit 17 registers the personal data of the authenticated fellow passenger registered in the storage unit 7. (Representative values indicating the running state and in-vehicle state of the vehicle that can be an unpleasant mind-body state) are read (step ST4b).

  Next, the personal data analysis unit 17 compares the personal data read from the storage unit 7 with the representative value corresponding to the personal data obtained at the present time by the situation information analysis unit 12 (step ST5b). For example, in the case of the above-mentioned occupant A, the representative value of the inter-vehicle distance (inter-vehicle time) at which the occupant A read from the storage unit 7 can be in a “tension” mind and body state, and the own vehicle obtained at the present time by the situation information analysis unit 12 Is compared with the representative value of the inter-vehicle distance (inter-vehicle time).

When the representative value of the personal data read from the storage unit 7 is the same as the representative value obtained at the present time, or the representative value obtained at the present time has changed in a direction that deteriorates the physical and mental state of the passenger That is, when notification is necessary (step ST6b; YES), the personal data analysis unit 17 notifies the information presenting unit 9 of the traveling state and the in-vehicle state of the vehicle indicated by the representative value.
The information presentation unit 9 notifies the driver of the running state and the in-vehicle state of the vehicle notified from the personal data analysis unit 17 (step ST7b).
For example, in the case of the occupant A described above, the inter-vehicle time obtained by the situation information analysis unit 12 at the present time and the inter-vehicle time when the occupant A read from the storage unit 7 can be in a “tension” mind-body state. If the distance between the two vehicles is the same or the current inter-vehicle time obtained is shorter than the inter-vehicle time during which the occupant A can be in a “tensioned” state of mind, the occupant A may be in an uncomfortable state of mind. The time is reported to the driver.

On the other hand, when the authenticated passenger selects (instructs) the registration location button using the input unit 2 (step ST3b; registration location), the personal data analysis unit 17 from the storage unit 7 is interested in the passenger. The read facility information is output to the information presentation unit 9. The information presentation unit 9 displays the facility information input from the personal data analysis unit 17 on the display device (step ST8b).
For example, in the case of the occupant B described above, the facility information that the occupant B is interested in is read from the storage unit 7, and an icon indicating the facility is superimposed on the map.

As in the first embodiment, the effect analysis unit 14 detects the passenger detected by the biological information detection unit 3 after the driver is informed of the driving state and the in-vehicle state of the vehicle that may be uncomfortable. From the biometric information, it is analyzed whether the passenger's mental and physical condition has improved.
In addition, the information presentation unit 9 drives the analysis result of the effect analysis unit 14 and the analysis result of the change tendency of the passenger's biological information at the present time by at least one presentation method of visual and auditory presentation methods. Inform the person.

  As described above, according to the third embodiment, the state of mind and body of each vehicle occupant and the state of travel of the vehicle, the state in the vehicle, and the situation around the vehicle can be determined for each occupant. When stored in the storage unit 7 as personal data and the use of data from the occupant is instructed, from the personal data read from the storage unit 7, the running state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state that may cause the occupant's mind-body state And the personal data analysis part which specifies the condition around the own vehicle and makes the information presentation part 9 present is provided. By configuring in this way, the state of mind and body and the vehicle running state and in-vehicle state that may be caused by the state are saved for each passenger, so that the passenger can feel uncomfortable mind and body without detecting biometric information each time. The driver can be informed of the vehicle situation that is not in a state.

  In the above description, the case where the personal data analysis unit 17 according to the third embodiment is added to the configuration of FIG. 6 shown in the second embodiment has been described. You may apply to the structure of FIG.

For example, the information presentation unit 9 displays information on a screen such as a liquid crystal monitor or a screen, or an audio output device such as a speaker. Information is notified by voice.

  Based on the information acquired by the information acquisition units 3 to 6, the control unit 10 determines the cause candidate of the state in which the passenger of the host vehicle feels uncomfortable, and the action performed on the cause candidate The control unit analyzes whether or not the passenger's condition has improved, and includes a biological information analysis unit 11, a situation information analysis unit 12, a cause estimation unit 13, and an effect analysis unit.

The biometric information analysis unit 11 refers to the psychosomatic state table data that is stored in the storage unit 7 and summarizes the change tendency of biometric information and the corresponding psychosomatic state (the psychosomatic state that passengers feel uncomfortable). Then, the state of mind and body of the passenger is estimated from the biological information of the passenger detected by the biological information detection unit 3.
The situation information analysis unit 12 includes information indicating the traveling state of the own vehicle acquired by the traveling information acquisition unit 4, information indicating the in-vehicle state of the own vehicle acquired by the in-vehicle information acquisition unit 5, and a map database stored in the storage unit 7. From the map data and the vehicle position acquired by the current location information acquisition unit 6 or the information around the vehicle position received by the communication unit 8, the running state of the vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the vehicle are estimated.

The cause estimation unit 13 stores the mind-body state (a mind-body state indicating that the passenger is uncomfortable), the running state of the vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the vehicle, which can be caused by this state, stored in the storage unit 7. The passengers estimated by the biological information analysis unit 11 from the traveling state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the surroundings of the host vehicle estimated by the situation information analysis unit 12 with reference to the cause candidate table data indicating the correspondence relationship Inferring cause candidates that may be the cause of the mental and physical state of
After the cause candidate is presented using the information presenting unit 9, the effect analyzing unit 14 determines the information presenting unit 9 from the traveling state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the own vehicle estimated by the situation information analyzing unit 12. It is determined which of the cause candidates presented by the person has been improved, and from the change tendency of the passenger's biometric information detected by the biometric information detection unit 3, the passenger's mind and body are improved by the improvement action. Analyze whether the condition is improving.

  FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a configuration of the navigation device according to Embodiment 1, and shows a configuration in which the present invention is applied to a navigation device mounted on a moving body (for example, a vehicle). The navigation apparatus 1a shown in FIG. 2 includes a navigation processing unit 15 as a functional block of the control unit 10a in addition to the configuration shown in FIG. In FIG. 2, the same reference numerals are given to the same or corresponding components as those in FIG.

The navigation processing unit 15 executes navigation processing such as route search, route guidance, and map display based on the vehicle position acquired by the current location information acquisition unit 6 and the map data of the map database stored in the storage unit 7. .
The map database is a database in which map data used by the navigation processing unit 15 is registered. Map data includes topographic map data, residential map data, road networks, and the like. Image information in navigation processing such as route guidance and map display is sent from the navigation processing unit 15 to the information presenting unit 9 and displayed on the screen of the display device.

FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of the cause candidate table data. As shown in FIG. 3, the cause candidate table data referred to by the cause estimating unit 13 includes information indicating the psychosomatic state, cause candidates that can be the cause of the psychosomatic state, and a specific vehicle that defines the cause candidate. And information indicating a running state, an in-vehicle state, and a situation around the vehicle.
For example, when the state of mind and body is “tension”, the inter-vehicle distance (inter-vehicle time) indicating the running state of the vehicle, the overspeed, and the acceleration are set as possible causes, and the in-vehicle sound indicating the in-vehicle state is set. The presence or absence of is set. The inter-vehicle distance is expressed as an inter-vehicle time that is easily handled when the driver performs a driving operation. The inter-vehicle time can be calculated as inter-vehicle time = inter-vehicle distance / vehicle speed.

  Further, the “inter-vehicle distance” that is a cause candidate that can cause the psychosomatic state “tension” is specifically the case where the inter-vehicle time is less than 3.0 seconds. Similarly, the “excess speed” as a cause candidate is a case where the excess vehicle speed is 15.0 km / h or more. The cause candidate “acceleration” indicates that the number of sudden brakes derived from the acceleration of the vehicle is 1 / min or more. Furthermore, the cause candidate “presence / absence of in-vehicle sound” is a case in which there is no in-vehicle sound. In this way, by defining the cause candidates with specific numerical magnitude relationships, it is possible to prevent the cause candidates from being erroneously estimated.

  The cause candidates include information indicating the situation around the vehicle in addition to the running state and the in-vehicle state of the vehicle shown in FIG. For example, when the road width is less than a predetermined value as the situation around the vehicle, it is defined as a cause candidate that can cause the psychosomatic state “tension”. In this case, the width of the road on which the vehicle is traveling or the road (road on the guide route) from which the vehicle is traveling can be determined from the map data (road data) and the vehicle position in the map database.

Next, the operation will be described.
FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the operation of the mobile information device according to the first embodiment. The cause candidate that may cause the passenger's mind-body state is presented along this FIG. This section describes the analysis of the effects of various actions and the presentation of the results.
First, the biological information detecting unit 3 sequentially detects the passenger's biological information (step ST1).
However, if biometric information can be detected at a plurality of seats, the user is allowed to select which seat the measurement is to be performed at before the step ST1.

When the biometric information of the passengers detected by the biometric information detection unit 3 is input, the biometric information analysis unit 11 collects information indicating the change tendency of the biometric information read from the storage unit 7 and the corresponding psychosomatic state. With reference to the table data, the psychosomatic state of the passenger is estimated from the passenger's biological information detected by the biological information detecting unit 3 (step ST2).
For example, in the psychosomatic state table data, the psychosomatic state corresponding to the case where the increase in the heart rate per unit time is a predetermined value or more, or when the increase in the heart rate by a predetermined number or more than the normal heart rate (passenger is uncomfortable) “Tension” is set as the state of mind and body).
In addition, as a normal heart rate, the average value of the heart rate when the own vehicle is stopped, the heart rate measured before the start of running, or the average value of the heart rate when running for a certain period of time. Can be mentioned.

The biological information analysis unit 11 determines whether the change tendency of the passenger's biological information sequentially detected by the biological information detection unit 3 corresponds to the mind-body state set in the mind-body state table data, that is, the passenger's mind-body state. Then, it is determined whether or not the state has changed to the “mental state indicating uncomfortable” set in the physical state table data (step ST3).
Here, if it does not change to the mind-body state which shows that it is unpleasant (step ST3; NO), it will return to step ST1 and will repeat the above-mentioned process.

When the state changes to a state of mind and body indicating unpleasantness (step ST3; YES), the biological information analysis unit 11 notifies the cause estimation unit 13 of information indicating the state of mind and body.
When the cause estimation unit 13 receives notification from the biological information analysis unit 11 that the passenger has changed to a psychosomatic state indicating that the passenger is uncomfortable, the current state (or immediately preceding) of the vehicle's running state, in-vehicle state, and The situation around the host vehicle is input from the situation information analysis unit 12.
Next, the cause estimating unit 13 refers to the cause candidate table data read from the storage unit 7, the current state of mind and body of the fellow passenger, the current (or immediately preceding) traveling state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state or A cause candidate matching the situation around the host vehicle is searched (step ST4).

Here, when there is no cause candidate in the cause candidate data table that matches the current state of mind and body of the passenger, the current (or immediately preceding) traveling state of the own vehicle, the in-vehicle state, or the situation around the own vehicle (step ST5). NO), returning to step ST1, and repeating the above-described processing.
When a cause candidate matching the current state of mind and body of the passenger, the current (or immediately preceding) traveling state of the vehicle, the in-vehicle state or the situation around the own vehicle is in the cause candidate data table (step ST5; YES) The cause estimator 13 outputs to the information presenter 9 a cause candidate that is estimated to have caused the current state of mind and body of the fellow passenger. The information presentation unit 9 notifies the driver of the cause candidate estimated by the cause estimation unit 13 by at least one of the visual and auditory presentation methods (step ST6).

  When the cause candidate is presented by the information presentation unit 9 (notification to the driver), the situation information analysis unit 12 starts the traveling state of the own vehicle acquired by the traveling information acquisition unit 4 and the in-vehicle information acquisition unit 5 from this time point. From the in-vehicle state of the host vehicle acquired by the vehicle, the map data in the map database stored in the storage unit 7 and the vehicle position acquired by the current location information acquisition unit 6 or the information around the vehicle position received by the communication unit 8 The running state of the own vehicle after being presented, the in-vehicle state and the situation around the own vehicle are continuously estimated. That is, the driving state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the host vehicle as a result of the driver performing the improvement action on the cause candidate are estimated.

Next, the effect analysis unit 14 determines which one of the cause candidates presented by the information presentation unit 9 according to the traveling state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the host vehicle estimated by the situation information analysis unit 12. It is determined whether or not the improvement behavior is implemented, and it is analyzed from the passenger's biological information detected by the biological information detection unit 3 whether or not the passenger's psychosomatic state has been improved by the improvement behavior (step ST7).
For example, biometric information indicating a comfortable psychosomatic state in which the current tendency of the passenger's biometric information changes according to the running state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the surrounding conditions of the host vehicle indicating improvement actions for the cause candidate When it comes to match the change tendency, it is determined that this improvement action is “effective”. In addition, when the change tendency is the same as before the cause candidate is presented, or when the change is further caused by the change tendency of the biological information indicating the unpleasant psychosomatic state set in the psychosomatic state table data, the improvement action is “effect “None” or “Deteriorated”.
The information presentation unit 9 sends the analysis result of the effect analysis unit 14 and the analysis result of the change tendency of the passenger's biological information at the present time to the driver by at least one of the visual and auditory presentation methods. Notification is made (step ST8).

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the analysis result of the change in the improvement action and the psychosomatic state with respect to the cause candidate. In the example shown in FIG. 5, the information presenting unit 9 inputs the analysis result of the change tendency of the passenger's biological information before inputting the cause candidate estimated by the cause estimating unit 13 or from the biological information analyzing unit 11. In the previous stage, an icon describing all the cause candidates registered in the cause candidate table data and an icon describing the analysis result of the change tendency of the predetermined biological information are displayed on the screen 9a of the display device. The display mode of the icon at this time is, for example, a character string indicating a cause candidate or biological information in a rectangular frame as shown in (1) of FIG.

After that, when the information presenting unit 9 inputs the cause candidate from the cause estimating unit 13 and the analysis result of the change tendency of the passenger's biometric information from the biometric information analyzing unit 11 through step ST6, the input cause candidate is input. For example, as shown in (2) of FIG. 5, the display mode of the icon corresponding to the biological information is changed to a thick frame and a warning color for alerting. Thus, by displaying the cause candidates that may cause the passenger's unpleasant mental and physical state in distinction from other candidates, the driver can easily take improvement actions.
Moreover, although the case where the cause candidate icon estimated by the cause estimating unit 13 is changed to a thick frame and a warning color to call attention has been shown, it is only necessary to distinguish the icon from other cause candidate icons. A display mode such as (enlarging) or blinking an icon may be adopted.

In the example of FIG. 5, “speed”, “distance between vehicles”, “brake” (number of sudden braking / min), and “accelerator” (acceleration number / min) are described as possible causes relating to the running state of the vehicle. The icons are displayed as a list of “travel situation improvement points” icons.
In addition, icons that indicate “cold” or “hot” indicating the in-vehicle temperature, “music presence / absence” in the vehicle, and “volume” indicating the playback volume are the “cause points for improving the interior space”. Listed as icons.
Furthermore, the analysis result of the change tendency of the passenger's biometric information of the preset items is displayed as an icon as information to be presented to the driver regardless of changes in the traveling state or the in-vehicle state of the host vehicle.
Here, “heart rate” indicating the heart rate per unit time of the passenger, “abnormal blood pressure value” determined from the blood pressure value of the passenger, and “fever” indicating the body temperature of the passenger measured by the body temperature sensor. The information is selected as information to be presented to the driver regardless of the traveling state and the in-vehicle state of the own vehicle, and these are listed as icons relating to the passenger's “notice of physical condition”.
In this way, information relating to the passenger's physical condition is set in advance as information to be presented regardless of the traveling state and in-vehicle state of the host vehicle, so that the driver can be accurately informed of sudden deterioration of the passenger's physical condition. Can be notified.

In step ST <b> 8, when the information presentation unit 9 inputs the analysis result by the effect analysis unit 14 and the analysis result of the change tendency of the biological information of the passenger at the present time, the icon describing the cause candidate according to the analysis result. And the display mode of the icon which described the analysis result of the change tendency of biometric information is changed as shown to (3)-(5) of FIG.
Here, the information presentation unit 9 changes the display mode of the “inter-vehicle distance” icon as shown in FIG. 5 (2) to notify the driver in step ST6, and the driver makes the “inter-vehicle distance” in step ST8. The case where the analysis result by the effect analysis part 14 when the improvement action regarding "is implemented" is input is mentioned as an example.

  First, when the effect analysis unit 14 recognizes from the traveling state of the host vehicle estimated by the situation information analysis unit 12 that the driver is performing an improvement action related to the “inter-vehicle distance”, an analysis of the effect of the improvement action is performed. Until the result is obtained, the information presenting unit 9 is notified that the improvement action regarding the “distance between vehicles” is being implemented. Upon receiving this notification, the information presentation unit 9 changes the display mode of the “vehicle distance” icon and presents that an improvement action regarding “vehicle distance” is being implemented. For example, as shown in (3) of FIG. 5, the color is the same as (1) and the icon is changed to a thick frame.

  After that, the information presentation unit 9 sequentially receives the analysis result of the effect of the improvement action from the effect analysis unit 14, and the change tendency of the passenger's biometric information changes to the change tendency of the biometric information indicating a comfortable psychosomatic state. When matching occurs, for example, as shown in FIG. 5 (4), the color within the thick frame (color different from (2)) in the display mode of (3) is changed, and the driver To inform that the current improvement action is effective.

On the other hand, when the change tendency of the passenger's biometric information is the same as before the cause candidate is presented, or when the biometric information showing the unpleasant psychosomatic state set in the psychosomatic state table data further changes For example, as shown in FIG. 5 (5), the information presentation unit 9 superimposes a dark color image in a thick frame in the display mode of (3) to make the improvement action “no effect” or “deteriorate”. Inform the driver that there is.
As described above, the information presenting unit 9 displays the cause candidate that may be a cause of the passenger's mind and body state as an icon image, and the passenger's mind and body state is improved based on the analysis result by the effect analysis unit 14. The display form of the icon image is changed depending on whether the image is improved or not improved.

  In addition, the information presentation part 9 will change the display mode shown in (4), and when the fixed time has elapsed, the improvement action for “vehicle distance” has been completed, and the “vehicle distance” icon is used as the original (1). The display mode shown in FIG. In addition, when the display mode shown in (5) is changed and a certain period of time has elapsed, the passenger's unpleasant mental and physical state is not caused by the “inter-vehicle distance”. The icon is returned to the original display mode shown in (1).

As described above, according to the first embodiment, the correspondence between the information presentation unit 9 that presents information to the driver of the own vehicle, and the cause / body state of the occupant and the cause candidates that can be the cause of the state of mind / body is shown. A storage unit 7 in which the cause candidate table data is stored, a biometric information analysis unit 11 that estimates the occupant's state of mind from the change tendency of the biometric information of the occupant detected by the biometric information detection unit 3, and a travel information acquisition unit 4 using the information indicating the traveling state of the host vehicle acquired by 4, the information indicating the in-vehicle state acquired by the in-vehicle information acquiring unit 5, the current position acquired by the current location information acquiring unit 6 and the map data of the map database, The situation information analysis unit 12 that estimates the running state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the host vehicle, and the cause candidate table data read from the storage unit 7, the situation information analysis unit 12 estimates Based on the traveling state of the vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the host vehicle, the cause estimating unit 13 that estimates the cause candidate that can be the cause of the mind and body state of the occupant estimated by the biological information analysis unit 11 and the cause estimating unit 13 The information presenting unit 9 presents the cause candidate to the driver, and then presents it to the driver based on the traveling state of the own vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the own vehicle estimated by the situation information analyzing unit 12. It is determined which of the cause candidates that has been improved and the improvement behavior is being implemented. From the change tendency of the occupant's biometric information detected by the biometric information detection unit 3, the occupant's psychosomatic state is determined by the improvement behavior. And an effect analysis unit 14 for analyzing whether or not the improvement is made.
By configuring in this way, it is possible to notify a cause candidate that may cause an uncomfortable mind and body state for the occupant of the moving body, and to recognize whether or not the occupant's mind and body state has been improved by the improvement action for the cause candidate.

  Further, according to the first embodiment, the information presenting unit 9 determines in advance the biometric information detected by the biometric information detection unit 3 in addition to the cause candidates that may be the cause of the mind and body state of the occupant of the own vehicle. The change tendency of the biometric information is presented to the driver. By doing so, it is possible to notify the driver of the deterioration of the physical condition of the occupant that does not depend on the traveling state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state, and the situation around the host vehicle.

  Furthermore, according to the first embodiment, the information presentation unit 9 displays the cause candidate that may be the cause of the occupant's mind-body state as an icon image, and based on the analysis result by the effect analysis unit 14, the occupant's mind-body The display form of the icon image is changed depending on whether the state is improved or not. In this way, the driver can easily visually recognize the result of the improvement action.

Embodiment 2. FIG.
FIG. 6 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a mobile information device according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention, and the information device for mounting the mobile information device according to the present invention on a mobile (for example, a vehicle). The case where it applies to is shown. A mobile information device 1A shown in FIG. 6 includes a facility information acquisition unit 16 as a functional block of the control unit 10A in addition to the configuration shown in FIG.

The biological information analysis unit 11 according to the second embodiment performs the same processing as that of the first embodiment, and from the change tendency of the passenger's biological information detected by the biological information detection unit 3, Guess that you are interested in the place.
For example, when the passenger's face and the direction of the line of sight are fixed toward a place (facility) around the vehicle for a predetermined time or more from the passenger's image captured by the in-vehicle camera constituting the biological information detection unit 3, Guess that the person was interested in the area around the car.

In addition, the cause estimation unit 13 according to the second embodiment detects the passenger detected by the biological information detection unit 3 when the biological information analysis unit 11 estimates that the passenger is interested in a place around the vehicle. From the map data of the map database stored in the storage unit 7 and the vehicle position acquired by the current location information acquisition unit 6 or the information about the vehicle position received by the communication unit 8 as a cause candidate Estimate surrounding locations (eg, facilities) that the passenger may be interested in.
For example, the location where the passenger's face or line of sight taken by the in-vehicle camera is estimated is estimated from the vehicle position and map data. Moreover, you may guess by image-recognizing the image of the place where the passenger's face and line of sight imaged with the camera outside the vehicle are facing.

  The facility information acquisition unit 16 acquires information on the surrounding location estimated by the cause estimation unit 13 from the map data of the map database stored in the storage unit 7 or from the outside via the communication unit 8. For example, using the facility name or place name indicating the surrounding place estimated by the cause estimating unit 13 as a search key, information related to the surrounding place is searched and received from the network via the communication unit 8.

In the second embodiment, the change tendency of the biometric information when the passenger, such as the face and the direction of the line of sight, is interested in a place around the own vehicle is shown to be interested in the surrounding place. It is registered in the mind and body state data table as information. The biometric information analysis unit 11 refers to the psychosomatic state data table, and when the change tendency of the biometric information of the fellow passenger detected by the biometric information detection unit 3 matches information indicating that the surrounding place is interested, Guess that the passenger was interested in the surrounding area.
In the cause candidate data table, information indicating that the user is interested in the surrounding place is registered, and if the corresponding surrounding place is specified, the place is registered in association with the information. .

Next, the operation will be described.
FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing an operation by the mobile information device according to the second embodiment. In FIG. 7, the process from step ST1 to step ST5 and the process from step ST6 to step ST8 are the same as those in FIG.
When the cause candidate matching the passenger's mind and body state, the traveling state of the own vehicle, the in-vehicle state, or the situation around the own vehicle is in the cause candidate data table (step ST5; YES), the cause estimating unit 13 is the biological information analyzing unit. 11 determines whether it is estimated that the passenger is interested in the surrounding place (step ST5-1).

If it is not estimated that the passenger is interested in the surrounding area (step ST5-1; NO), the process proceeds to step ST6, and the processes from step ST6 to step ST8 are executed.
On the other hand, when it is presumed that he / she is interested in the surrounding place (step ST5-1; YES), the cause estimating unit 13 registers the corresponding place around the vehicle position in the cause candidate data table. Check whether there is any.

When the location around the vehicle position is registered in the cause candidate data table, the facility information acquisition unit 16 acquires information about the location around the vehicle position read from the cause candidate data table and outputs the information to the information presentation unit 9 To do.
In addition, when the location around the vehicle position is not registered in the cause candidate data table, the cause estimation unit 13 receives the change tendency of the biological information of the passenger and the map data and the vehicle position or communication unit 8. Based on the information around the vehicle position, the surrounding location where the passenger is considered interested is estimated. The facility information acquisition unit 16 acquires information related to the surrounding location estimated by the cause estimation unit 13 and outputs the information to the information presentation unit 9.

  The information presenting unit 9 presents information related to the location input from the cause estimating unit 13 as information related to the surrounding location that the fellow passenger is interested in (step ST5-2). For example, in the case where map information related to a surrounding place is included in the map data, the facility information can be acquired by superimposing a facility icon on the map display and selecting the icon using the input unit 2. Like that.

  As described above, according to the second embodiment, since the facility information acquisition unit 16 that acquires the facility information around the current position of the host vehicle is further provided, the same effect as the first embodiment can be obtained. Information about the surrounding places that passengers are interested in can be presented.

Embodiment 3 FIG.
In the third embodiment, the psychosomatic state, the candidate for the cause, and the estimated result of the surrounding location where the person is interested are stored for each passenger, and the rider can ride with the driver without detecting the biological information of the passenger each time. The driver is encouraged to perform a driving operation that does not correspond to a cause that can cause an unpleasant mental and physical condition, and information about a surrounding location that the passenger is interested in is presented.
FIG. 8 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the mobile information device according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. The mobile information device 1B shown in FIG. 8 includes a personal data analysis unit 17 as a functional block of the control unit 10B in addition to the configuration shown in FIG.
The personal data analysis unit 17 stores, in the storage unit 7, personal data for each occupant, such as the state of mind and body of each occupant and the vehicle running state, in-vehicle state, and the situation around the vehicle that may cause the state of mind and body. When the use of the data is instructed, the information presenting unit 9 is specified by identifying the vehicle running state, the vehicle interior state, and the vehicle surrounding situation that may cause the occupant's mental and physical state from the personal data read from the storage unit 7. . In FIG. 8, the same components as those in FIG.

Next, the operation will be described.
(1) At the time of data collection FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing an operation (at the time of data collection) by the mobile information device according to the third embodiment.
First, the passenger uses the input unit 2 to select a registration data mode (step ST1a). As a result, the personal data analysis unit 17 shifts to an input waiting state for the identification value.
Next, the passenger inputs his / her identification value using the input unit 2 (step ST2a). As a result, the personal data analysis unit 17 performs personal authentication using the identification value of the fellow passenger, and when authenticated, notifies the information presenting unit 9 to that effect.
When the information presentation unit 9 receives the notification that the passenger is authenticated, the information presentation unit 9 displays a data collection button, a data use button, and a registration location button as a user interface that can be operated using the input unit 2.

  The fellow passenger uses the input unit 2 to select (instruct) the data collection button (step ST3a). Thereby, the personal data analysis unit 17 operates the biometric information analysis unit 11, the situation information analysis unit 12, and the facility information acquisition unit 16 with respect to the authenticated passenger, and responds to the change tendency of the authenticated passenger's biometric information. The state of mind and body and the traveling state or in-vehicle state (quantitative data) of the own vehicle at this time, or facility information in which the passenger is interested are acquired (step ST4a).

For example, when the authenticated passenger is the occupant A, the personal data analysis unit 17 estimates that the state of mind and body of the occupant A is “tension” from the analysis of the change tendency of the biometric information by the biometric information analysis unit 11. When the situation information analysis unit 12 obtains the inter-vehicle distance (inter-vehicle time) of the subject vehicle when the change in the biological information corresponding to “tension” is obtained, these are stored in the storage unit 7 as personal data of the occupant A. Save it.
Further, when the authenticated passenger is the occupant B, the personal data analysis unit 17 analyzes the change tendency of the biometric information by the biometric information analysis unit 11 in the mind and body state in which the occupant B is interested in the surrounding place. If it is presumed that there is a facility that the passenger is supposed to be interested in by the cause estimating unit 13, these are stored in the storage unit 7 as personal data of the passenger B.

Next, if the data stored in the storage unit 7 is facility information (step ST5a; YES), the personal data analysis unit 17 ends the data collection process.
If the data stored in the storage unit 7 is not facility information (step ST5a; NO), the personal data analysis unit 17 selects the center of the data indicating the traveling state or in-vehicle state of the host vehicle stored in the storage unit 7. A value, an average value, a maximum value, etc. are calculated, and representative values indicating the running state and in-vehicle state of the vehicle that can be the mind and body state of the passenger are determined and registered in the storage unit 7 (step ST6a). For example, in the case of the above-mentioned occupant A, the personal data analysis unit 17 calculates a median value, an average value, a maximum value, and the like of data indicating an inter-vehicle distance (inter-vehicle time) that is sequentially detected and stored in the traveling of the host vehicle. A representative value of the inter-vehicle distance (inter-vehicle time) that can be a “tension” state of the occupant A is determined.

(2) When Data is Used FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing an operation (when data is used) by the mobile information device according to Embodiment 3.
First, as in the case of data collection, the passenger selects the registered data mode using the input unit 2 (step ST1b). As a result, the personal data analysis unit 17 shifts to a state waiting for input of an identification value.
Next, the passenger inputs his / her identification value using the input unit 2 (step ST2b). As a result, the personal data analysis unit 17 performs personal authentication using the identification value of the fellow passenger, and when authenticated, notifies the information presenting unit 9 to that effect.
When the information presentation unit 9 receives the notification that the passenger is authenticated, the information presentation unit 9 displays a data collection button, a data use button, and a registration location button as a user interface that can be operated using the input unit 2.

  When the fellow passenger selects (instructs) the data use button using the input unit 2 (step ST3b; data use), the personal data analysis unit 17 registers the personal data of the authenticated fellow passenger registered in the storage unit 7. (Representative values indicating the running state and in-vehicle state of the vehicle that can be an unpleasant mind-body state) are read (step ST4b).

  Next, the personal data analysis unit 17 compares the personal data read from the storage unit 7 with the representative value corresponding to the personal data obtained at the present time by the situation information analysis unit 12 (step ST5b). For example, in the case of the above-mentioned occupant A, the representative value of the inter-vehicle distance (inter-vehicle time) at which the occupant A read from the storage unit 7 can be in a “tension” mind and body state, and the own vehicle obtained at the present time by the situation information analysis unit 12 Is compared with the representative value of the inter-vehicle distance (inter-vehicle time).

When the representative value of the personal data read from the storage unit 7 is the same as the representative value obtained at the present time, or the representative value obtained at the present time has changed in a direction that deteriorates the physical and mental state of the passenger That is, when notification is necessary (step ST6b; YES), the personal data analysis unit 17 notifies the information presenting unit 9 of the traveling state and the in-vehicle state of the vehicle indicated by the representative value.
The information presentation unit 9 notifies the driver of the running state and the in-vehicle state of the vehicle notified from the personal data analysis unit 17 (step ST7b).
For example, in the case of the occupant A described above, the inter-vehicle time obtained by the situation information analysis unit 12 at the present time and the inter-vehicle time when the occupant A read from the storage unit 7 can be in a “tension” mind-body state. If the distance between the two vehicles is the same or the current inter-vehicle time obtained is shorter than the inter-vehicle time during which the occupant A can be in a “tensioned” state of mind, the occupant A may be in an uncomfortable state of mind. The time is reported to the driver.

On the other hand, when the authenticated passenger selects (instructs) the registration location button using the input unit 2 (step ST3b; registration location), the personal data analysis unit 17 from the storage unit 7 is interested in the passenger. The read facility information is output to the information presentation unit 9. The information presentation unit 9 displays the facility information input from the personal data analysis unit 17 on the display device (step ST8b).
For example, in the case of the occupant B described above, the facility information that the occupant B is interested in is read from the storage unit 7, and an icon indicating the facility is superimposed on the map.

As in the first embodiment, the effect analysis unit 14 detects the passenger detected by the biological information detection unit 3 after the driver is informed of the driving state and the in-vehicle state of the vehicle that may be uncomfortable. From the biometric information, it is analyzed whether the passenger's mental and physical condition has improved.
In addition, the information presentation unit 9 drives the analysis result of the effect analysis unit 14 and the analysis result of the change tendency of the passenger's biological information at the present time by at least one presentation method of visual and auditory presentation methods. Inform the person.

  As described above, according to the third embodiment, the state of mind and body of each vehicle occupant and the state of travel of the vehicle, the state in the vehicle, and the situation around the vehicle can be determined for each occupant. When stored in the storage unit 7 as personal data and the use of data from the occupant is instructed, from the personal data read from the storage unit 7, the running state of the host vehicle, the in-vehicle state that may cause the occupant's mind-body state And the personal data analysis part which specifies the condition around the own vehicle and makes the information presentation part 9 present is provided. By configuring in this way, the state of mind and body and the vehicle running state and in-vehicle state that may be caused by the state are saved for each passenger, so that the passenger can feel uncomfortable mind and body without detecting biometric information each time. The driver can be informed of the vehicle situation that is not in a state.
