Can be presented to. The presenting devices that make such presentations are the mirror device 40 and the structural panel 80. Hereinafter, the functional configuration of the water supply unit 10 related to such presentation will be described. FIG. 5 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration of the water supply unit 10.

As shown in FIG. 5, the water supply unit 10 includes a mirror device 40, a structural panel 80, a sensor 90, a control device 100 (not shown in FIGS. 1 to 4), and a motion sensor 110 (FIG. 5). 1 to (not shown in FIG. 4). Further, FIG. 5 also shows the server device 200.

The mirror device 40 is an example of a display device, and is a display device that displays an image based on biological information measured by a sensor 90. The mirror device 40 also functions as a user interface device that accepts user operations. In the water supply unit 10, the mirror device 40 displays an image based on the biological information according to the command of the control device 100, but the biological information may be directly acquired from the sensor 90 and the image may be displayed. The mirror device 40 includes an upper indirect lighting device 41, a lower indirect lighting device 42, a camera 43, a display unit 44, a touch panel 45, a mirror control unit 46, and a storage unit 47.

The camera 43 captures an image in front of the mirror device 40. The captured image is flipped horizontally and displayed on the display unit 44, so that the function of the mirror device 40 as a mirror is realized. As described above, the mirror device 40 is, for example, a digital mirror.

The display unit 44 displays an image. For example, the display unit 44 causes the mirror device 40 to function as a mirror by displaying the image taken by the camera 43 in a left-right inverted manner based on the control of the mirror control unit 46. Further, the display unit 44 displays an image showing information based on biological information in at least a part of the area of the display unit 44 (for example, a part of the area directly above the wash basin 30). The display unit 44 is realized by a liquid crystal panel or a display panel such as an organic EL (Electroluminescence) panel.

The touch panel 45 is an example of an operation receiving unit, and is superimposed on the display unit 44 to receive a user's operation. The touch panel 45 receives, for example, a user's operation for starting the display by the display unit 44. The mirror device 40 accepts a user's voice input by a microphone (not shown) included in the mirror device 40, and the mirror control unit 46 can also identify the user based on the voice input.

The structural panel 80 is a panel-shaped member used for a building, a fitting, or the like. The structural panel 80 is an example of a light emitting device, and the light emitting mode changes based on the biological information measured by the sensor 90. In the water supply unit 10, the light emitting mode of the structural panel 80 is changed according to the command of the control device 100, but it may be changed by the structural panel 80 directly acquiring biometric information from the sensor 90. Specifically, the structural panel 80 includes a light source 81, a panel control unit 82, and a storage unit 83.

The light source 81 is, for example, a light emitting module having a structure in which a plurality of LED elements are mounted on a substrate. Each of the plurality of LED elements includes a red LED chip, a blue LED chip, and a green LED chip, and the brightness of each LED chip can be independently controlled. As a result, the emission color of the light source 81 can be changed. The light source 81 may be realized by a light emitting element other than the LED (for example, an organic EL or the like).

The panel control unit 82 controls the light emission of the light source 81. Specifically, the panel control unit 82 determines that the physical condition of the user has changed based on the biometric information of the user (more specifically, a command transmitted from the control device 100 based on the biometric information of the user). In this case, the light emitting mode of the light source 81 is changed. The panel control unit 82 is realized by, for example, a microcomputer, but may be realized by a processor or a dedicated circuit.

The storage unit 83 is a storage device that stores a program or the like executed by the panel control unit 82 to control light emission. The storage unit 83 is realized by, for example, a semiconductor memory.

The sensor 90 measures the biometric information of the user. As described above, the sensor 90 is specifically a pulse wave sensor 91 that measures a pulse wave (and blood pressure and heart rate calculated based on the pulse wave) as biological information, and a body weight that measures body weight as biological information. A sensor 92, a body weight sensor 93 that measures body weight as biometric information, or the like.

The sensor 90 is not limited to these sensors, for example, a blood pressure sensor, a heart rate sensor, a camera, a body temperature sensor, a brain wave sensor, a saliva sensor, a sweating sensor, a breathing sensor, a body motion sensor, a blood flow sensor, a blood glucose level sensor, and a urine test. It may be a sensor or the like. Each of such sensors 90 may be a contact type sensor that comes into contact with the user, or may be a non-contact type sensor that does not come into contact with the user. Further, the sensor 90 may be installed somewhere in the water supply unit 10, and is installed in, for example, the toilet bowl 20, the wash basin 30, the main space 61, or the shower room 70. Biological information includes, for example, blood pressure, heart rate, blinking / gaze, eye movement, pupil fluctuation, body temperature, brain wave, saliva volume, sweating volume, respiratory volume, body movement volume, blood glucose level, blood glucose level, pH, uric acid level, etc. be. The biometric information may include the number of times the user's toilet bowl 20 (toilet) has been used and the user's physical ability (muscle strength, etc.).

The control device 100 acquires biometric information from the sensor 90 and controls the mirror device 40 and the structural panel 80 based on the acquired biometric information. The control device 100 includes a control unit 101, a storage unit 102, and a communication unit 103.

The control unit 101 acquires biometric information from the sensor 90 and transmits a command based on the acquired biometric information to control the mirror device 40 and the structural panel 80 (that is, control of presenting information). The control unit 101 is realized by, for example, a microcomputer, but may be realized by a processor or a dedicated circuit.

The storage unit 102 is a storage device that stores a program executed by the control unit 101 to perform presentation control, various information for performing presentation control, and the like. The storage unit 102 is realized by, for example, a semiconductor memory.

The communication unit 103 is a communication circuit for the control device 100 to communicate with the server device 200 via a wide area communication network 120 such as the Internet. The communication performed by the communication unit 103 may be wired communication or wireless communication. The communication standard for communication performed by the communication unit 103 is also not particularly limited.

The motion sensor 110 is, for example, a sensor installed near the entrance of the water circulation unit 10 and detecting that the user has entered the water circulation unit 10. The motion sensor 110 is a pyroelectric sensor that detects infrared rays emitted from the user's body, but may be a sensor using ultrasonic waves or visible light. The detection result of the motion sensor 110 is transmitted to the control device 100. The installation position of the motion sensor 110 is not particularly limited. The motion sensor 110 is installed, for example, around the structural panel 80.

[Presentation control using structural panel]
Next, the presentation control using the structural panel 80 will be described. FIG. 6 is a flowchart of presentation control using the structural panel 80.

Each time the sensor 90 measures the user's biometric information, the control unit 101 of the control device 100 acquires the measured biometric information and stores it in the storage unit 102 (S11). As described above, the water supply unit 10 automatically measures biometric information when the user uses the toilet bowl 20 or the wash basin 30 without the user being aware of it. The control unit 101 stores the biological information measured in this way in the storage unit 102.

When the user invades the water supply unit 10, the motion sensor 110 detects this (S12). When the control unit 101 acquires a detection result indicating that the user has been detected from the motion sensor 110, the control unit 101 uses this as a trigger to determine whether or not the user is healthy using the latest measured values of biometric information. Do (S13). The control unit 101 compares, for example, the measured value of the latest biometric information with the measured value of the past biometric information. More specifically, the past biometric information is an average value of biometric information measured in the most recent predetermined period (for example, one week).

When the control unit 101 determines that the difference between the latest measured value and the past average value is less than a predetermined value and the user is healthy (Yes in S13), the light source 81 of the structural panel 80 is changed to the light bulb color (first). (S14) to emit light in an example of the embodiment). FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a light emitting mode of the structural panel 80 when the user is determined to be healthy. Specifically, the control unit 101 transmits a command for causing the light source 81 of the structural panel 80 to emit light in a light bulb color to the panel control unit 82, and the panel control unit 82 causes the light source 81 to emit light according to the received command. ..

On the other hand, when the control unit 101 determines that the difference between the latest measured value and the past average value is equal to or greater than a predetermined value and the user is unhealthy or the vital value is abnormal (No in S13), the structure panel 80 is used. The light source 81 is made to emit light in neutral white color (an example of the second aspect) different from the light bulb color (S15). FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a light emitting mode of the structural panel 80 when the user is determined to be unhealthy. Specifically, the control unit 101 transmits a command for causing the light source 81 of the structural panel 80 to emit light in neutral white to the panel control unit 82, and the panel control unit 82 causes the light source 81 to emit light according to the received command. ..

According to the presentation control using the structural panel 80 as described above, when a user determined to be healthy invades the water supply unit 10, the structural panel 80 starts emitting light in a light bulb color (first aspect). .. When a user determined to be unhealthy invades the water supply unit 10, the structural panel 80 starts emitting light in neutral white (second mode). Therefore, the user can grasp the abnormality of the physical condition by the light emitting mode of the structural panel.

As described above, the measurement of the biological information is performed without receiving the operation or the like intended for the measurement from the user, and the change of the light emitting mode is also performed without receiving the operation or the like from the user. That is, if the user normally lives in the building provided with the water supply unit 10, the user can receive a presentation indicating deterioration of the health condition (physical condition), whereby the user can notice the abnormality in the physical condition.

It should be noted that the change in the light emission mode may be performed by combining at least one or more such as a change in the light emission color, a change in the blinking (blinking) cycle, and a change in the brightness. Further, the change in the light emission mode does not include detailed information such as character information and image information, but may be included. For example, the structural panel 80 can display an image (pattern, etc.) having a coarser resolution than the display unit 44 of the mirror device 40 by selectively causing the LED chip of the light source 81 to emit light. The change may be realized by such a change in the image.

In addition, it is not essential that the determination of whether or not the user is healthy is made by comparison with past biometric information. For example, even if the latest measured value of biological information is within a predetermined range common to all people (for example, a range of generally normal blood pressure values used in health examinations, etc.). good. For biometric information having a large individual difference, past biometric information may be used for comparison, and for biometric information having a small individual difference, a predetermined range common to all may be used for comparison. That is, the control unit 101 may change the determination standard according to the type of biometric information.

Further, since three types of sensors, a pulse wave sensor 91, a body weight sensor 92, and a body fat sensor 93, are installed as the sensor 90, each of a plurality of different types of biometric information is accumulated in the storage unit 102 on a daily basis. NS. In such a case, for example, when at least one of the latest measured values of a plurality of types of biological information is determined to be abnormal, the light emission mode is changed.

The example of presenting based on the light emitting mode using the structural panel 80 has been described above, but such presentation may be performed by a light emitting device other than the structural panel 80. For example, the presentation based on the light emitting mode may be performed by a lighting device such as an indirect lighting device 31, an upper indirect lighting device 41, a lower indirect lighting device 42, a lighting device 60, or an indirect lighting device 73.

[Presentation control using a mirror device]
Next, the presentation control using the mirror device 40 will be described. FIG. 9 is a flowchart of presentation control using the mirror device 40.

Each time the sensor 90 measures the user's biometric information, the control unit 101 of the control device 100 acquires the measured biometric information and stores it in the storage unit 102 (S21). As described above, the water supply unit 10 automatically measures biometric information when the user uses the toilet bowl 20 or the wash basin 30 without the user being aware of it. The control unit 101 stores the biological information measured in this way in the storage unit 102.

When the touch panel 45 of the mirror device 40 receives a predetermined operation (for example, a tap operation) of the user (S22), the mirror control unit 46 notifies the control unit 101 of the control device 100 that the predetermined operation has been performed. ..

Upon receiving the notification from the mirror control unit 46, the control unit 101 determines whether or not the user is healthy using the latest measured values of biometric information (S23). The determination method here is the same as the presentation control using the structural panel.

When the control unit 101 determines that the user is healthy (in other words, the user's physical condition is normal) (Yes in S23), the control unit 101 causes the display unit 44 to display the first display screen (S24). Specifically, the control unit 101 transmits a command for displaying the first display screen to the mirror control unit 46, and the mirror control unit 46 displays the first display screen on the display unit 44 according to the received command. Let me. FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of the first display screen.

As shown in FIG. 10, on the first display screen, for example, an image showing biometric information for the most recent predetermined period is displayed. In the example of FIG. 10, the blood pressure value for the most recent week is displayed as a line graph. In addition, textual information indicating that the user is determined to be healthy is also displayed.

On the other hand, when the control unit 101 determines that the user is not healthy (in other words, the user's physical condition is abnormal) (No in S23), the display unit 44 causes the display unit 44 to display the second display screen (S25). Specifically, the control unit 101 transmits a command for displaying the second display screen to the mirror control unit 46, and the mirror control unit 46 displays the second display screen on the display unit 44 according to the received command. Display. FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example of the second display screen.

As shown in FIG. 11, on the second display screen, for example, an image showing biometric information for the most recent predetermined period is displayed. In the example of FIG. 11, the blood pressure value for the most recent week is displayed as a line graph. In addition, textual information indicating that the user is determined to be unhealthy is also displayed. This textual information includes information to recommend a medical institution. That is, the second display screen of FIG. 11 is an image for proposing to the user to receive the service.

Here, on the second display screen of FIG. 11, the user taps the area described as "displaying a nearby medical institution" to operate the medical institution in the vicinity of the building in which the water supply unit 10 is installed. You can display the list screen of. FIG. 12 is a diagram showing an example of a list screen of a medical institution.

For example, the control unit 101 uses the communication unit 103 to store the installation position information of the water supply unit 10 stored in advance in the storage unit 102 (specifically, the latitude and longitude information of the building in which the water supply unit 10 is installed). , Address information, etc.) is transmitted to the server device 200a that provides the WEB search service. As a result, the control unit 101 can acquire information on the medical institution in the vicinity of the building where the water supply unit 10 is installed from the server device 200a, and display a list screen as shown in FIG. 12 on the display unit 44.

Further, if the "display map" portion is tapped by the user, the map around the target medical institution is displayed on the display unit 44. The map information of such a peripheral map is provided, for example, from the server device 200a that provides the WEB search service.

Further, when the user performs the selection operation and the reservation operation of the medical institution while the list screen of FIG. 12 is displayed, the control unit 101 causes the server device 200b (in the server device) used by the selected medical institution. It may be an information terminal such as a personal computer), and the reservation request information for making a reservation for the medical institution and the biometric information of the user stored in the storage unit 102 are transmitted.

If the user's biometric information is provided in advance in this way, when the user subsequently visits the selected medical institution, the doctor belonging to the medical institution should make a diagnosis in consideration of the measured biometric information. Can be done. That is, the water supply unit 10 can support the diagnosis of the doctor.

It is not essential that the second display screen is an image for proposing to receive the service to the user. The second display screen may be an image for proposing the purchase of the product to the user. FIG. 13 is a diagram showing another example of such a second display screen.

The second display screen of FIG. 13 includes textual information recommending the purchase of a product that is expected to improve the biological information that is the basis for determining that the patient is not healthy. This character information is, for example, advertisement information, and is provided from the server device 200c that provides the advertisement. The server device 200c performs billing processing according to the number of times the advertisement information is displayed. The server device 200c determines, for example, what kind of advertisement information is displayed when what kind of biometric information deteriorates, based on a predetermined algorithm. If the "purchase" part is tapped by the user, the website for purchasing this product is displayed on the display unit 44.

The advertising information is not limited to the product, but may be the service. For example, the advertising information may recommend the use of an exercise facility (training gym) for improving biometric information.

Further, the second display screen may be an image that encourages the user to make improvements for giving advice on lifestyle habits. FIG. 14 is a diagram showing another example of such a second display screen.

The second display screen of FIG. 14 includes advice information (textual information) regarding lifestyle habits for improving biological information that is the basis for determining unhealthy. The lifestyle-related advice information is, specifically, exercise-related advice or dietary-related advice. The control unit 101 determines, for example, what kind of advice information is displayed when the numerical value of what kind of biometric information deteriorates, based on a predetermined algorithm. The advice information that is a candidate for display is stored in advance in, for example, the storage unit 102.

According to the presentation control using the mirror device 40 as described above, the water supply unit 10 can present the measurement result of the biological information to the user. In addition, if it is determined that the user's health condition is not good, the water supply unit 10 may propose to see a medical institution, purchase a product, receive a service, and correct a lifestyle. can.

Further, since three types of sensors, a pulse wave sensor 91, a body weight sensor 92, and a body fat sensor 93, are installed as the sensor 90, each of a plurality of different types of biometric information is accumulated in the storage unit 102 on a daily basis.

As shown in FIG. 15, the structural panel 80 includes a panel body 84 and a symbol layer 85.

The panel main body 84 includes an upper cover 86, a lower cover 87, a light source 81, and a light diffusing plate 88. The upper cover 86 and the lower cover 87 constitute a housing for accommodating the light source 81 and the light diffusing plate 88. Although not shown, the panel control unit 82 and the storage unit 83 described above are also housed in this housing. The upper cover 86 and the lower cover 87 are formed of, for example, a resin material, and at least the upper cover 86 is translucent.

The light source 81 is arranged inside the panel main body 84. The light source 81 is, for example, a light emitting module having a structure in which a plurality of LED elements 81b are mounted on a substrate 81a. Each of the plurality of LED elements 81b includes a red LED chip, a blue LED chip, and a green LED chip, and the brightness of each LED chip can be independently controlled. As a result, the emission color of the light source 81 can be changed. The light source 81 may be realized by a light emitting element other than the LED (for example, an organic EL or the like).

The light diffusing plate 88 is arranged inside the panel main body 84 and is located above the light source 81. The light diffusing plate 88 diffuses the light emitted by the light source 81 to make the light emission intensity uniform. According to the light diffusing plate 88, the structural panel 80 can emit light from the surface. The light diffusing plate 88 has a structure in which, for example, a light diffusing film containing a light diffusing material (fine particles) such as silica or calcium carbonate is formed on the surface of a translucent substrate formed of a glass or resin material. .. The light diffusing plate 88 may be formed by including a light diffusing material in the light-transmitting substrate itself.

Further, the light diffusing plate 88 may be a translucent substrate having a lens structure, a concave portion, or a convex portion formed on the surface thereof. Further, the light diffusing plate 88 may be a translucent substrate having a dot pattern printed on its surface.

The design layer 85 is attached to the surface of the panel body 84. The light emitted by the light source 81 is taken out of the structural panel 80 through the symbol layer 85. The symbol layer 85 is, for example, a sheet on which a wood grain pattern is formed. The symbol layer 85 may form a symbol other than the wood grain.

In the above embodiment, the structural panel 80 is used as the door 51 of the wall storage 50. However, the structural panel 80 may be used as a wall panel (a panel constituting the inner wall) of the water supply unit, and in this case, wallpaper is used for the design layer.

The example of the concrete structure of the structural panel 80 has been described above. The structural panel 80 is not limited to such a structure. For example, the structure of an edge light type light emitting panel using a light guide plate may be applied to the structural panel 80.
