 これに対して、制御部35は、遺失物の候補を検出できなかった場合、その旨を示す検出不能通知を通信部33からネットワークNを介して、遺失物検索依頼を送信したユーザ端末10に送信する。その後、制御部35は、保管者端末20からネットワークNを介して送信される拾得物登録要求を通信部33で受信したことに応答して、拾得物登録要求から特定される保管者ID、拾得物の撮影画像及び特徴、並びに拾得場所と、その登録日時と、を対応付けて拾得物DB342に登録するとともに、拾得物DB342に新たに登録した拾得物が、遺失物検索依頼から特定される遺失物の候補であるか否かを判別する。そして、制御部35は、新たに登録した拾得物が遺失物の候補であると判別した場合、その遺失物の候補と、その候補と遺失物とのマッチング率と、を含む検索結果通知を通信部33からネットワークNを介して、遺失物検索依頼を送信したユーザ端末10に送信する。また、制御部35は、新たに登録した拾得物が遺失物の候補であると判別した場合、その遺失物の候補と、その候補と遺失物とのマッチング率と、を通信部33からネットワークNを介して、遺失物検索依頼を送信したユーザ端末10にプッシュ通知してもよい。 On the other hand, if the candidate for the lost item cannot be detected, the control unit 35 sends a detection impossible notification indicating that to the user terminal 10 that has transmitted the lost item search request from the communication unit 33 via the network N. Send. Thereafter, in response to receiving the found-item registration request transmitted from the custodian terminal 20 via the network N by the communication unit 33, the control unit 35 obtains the custodian ID, which is identified from the found-item registration request. The captured image and characteristics of the object, the location of the pickup, and the registration date and time thereof are registered in association with the found-item DB 342, and the found item newly registered in the found-item DB 342 is identified from the lost item search request. It is determined whether or not it is a candidate for an object. When the control unit 35 determines that the newly registered found item is a lost item candidate, the control unit 35 communicates a search result notification including the lost item candidate and a matching rate between the candidate and the lost item. The information is transmitted from the unit 33 to the user terminal 10 that has transmitted the lost item search request via the network N. In addition, when the control unit 35 determines that the newly found found item is a lost item candidate, the control unit 35 sends the lost item candidate and the matching rate between the candidate and the lost item from the communication unit 33 to the network N. The user terminal 10 that has transmitted the lost item search request may be notified by push.
 さらに、制御部35は、ユーザ端末10からネットワークNを介して送信される遺失物指定を通信部33で受信したことに応答して、遺失物指定から特定される遺失物の候補である拾得物に対応する保管者IDを拾得物DB342から特定する。続いて、制御部35は、拾得物DB342から特定した保管者IDに対応する保管所の連絡先(例えば電話番号やメールアドレス等)を保管者DB340から特定する。そして、制御部35は、保管者DB340から特定した保管所の連絡先を通知する保管所通知を通信部33からネットワークNを介して、遺失物指定を送信したユーザ端末10に送信する。また、制御部35は、保管所通知に加えて、或いはこれに代えて、ユーザの遺失物を拾得物として保管する保管所の連絡先を通知する電子メールを通信部33からネットワークNを介して、遺失物指定から特定されるユーザのメールアドレスに宛てて送信してもよい。 Further, in response to receiving the lost item designation transmitted from the user terminal 10 via the network N by the communication unit 33, the control unit 35 finds a found item that is a candidate for the lost item identified from the lost item designation. The custodian ID corresponding to is identified from the found item DB 342. Subsequently, the control unit 35 specifies, from the custodian DB 340, a contact information (for example, a telephone number or an e-mail address) of the custodian corresponding to the custodian ID identified from the found item DB 342. Then, the control unit 35 transmits a storage location notification for notifying the contact information of the storage location specified from the custodian DB 340 from the communication unit 33 to the user terminal 10 that has transmitted the lost item designation via the network N. Further, in addition to or instead of the storage location notification, the control unit 35 sends an e-mail notifying the contact information of the storage location that stores the user's lost items as found items from the communication unit 33 via the network N. , It may be sent to the user's e-mail address specified from the lost article designation.
 また、制御部35は、保管者端末20からネットワークNを介して送信される拾得物返却通知を通信部33で受信したことに応答して、拾得物返却通知から特定される保管者ID及び拾得物に関する情報に対応付けて拾得物DB342に登録されている返却済みフラグをオンする。 Further, the control unit 35 responds to the reception of the found item return notification transmitted from the custodian terminal 20 via the network N by the communication unit 33, and the custodian ID and the found item specified from the found item return notification. The returned flag registered in the found item DB 342 in association with the information about the item is turned on.
 次に、上記構成を備える遺失物検索システムの動作について、図面を参照して説明する。 Next, the operation of the lost article search system having the above configuration will be described with reference to the drawings.
 ユーザが検索アプリを管理サーバ30からネットワークNを介してダウンロードしてユーザ端末10にインストールした後、ユーザ端末10のタッチパネル11には、まず、図示せぬメールアドレス登録画面が表示される。ユーザは、メールアドレス登録画面で自己のメールアドレスを入力する。制御部15は、ユーザがメールアドレス登録画面で入力したメールアドレスを通信部13からネットワークNを介して管理サーバ30に送信する。そして、管理サーバ30の制御部35は、ユーザ端末10からネットワークNを介して送信されるユーザのメールアドレスを通信部33で受信してユーザDB341に登録する。 After the user downloads the search application from the management server 30 via the network N and installs it on the user terminal 10, a mail address registration screen (not shown) is first displayed on the touch panel 11 of the user terminal 10. The user inputs his / her mail address on the mail address registration screen. The control unit 15 transmits the mail address input by the user on the mail address registration screen from the communication unit 13 to the management server 30 via the network N. Then, the control unit 35 of the management server 30 receives the user's mail address transmitted from the user terminal 10 via the network N by the communication unit 33 and registers it in the user DB 341.
 その後、ユーザ端末10のタッチパネル11には、図3(a)に示すトップ画面100が表示される。ユーザは、トップ画面100に表示される「持ち物登録」のアイコン、又は画面下側に常時表示される「持ち物登録」のアイコンをタップして、図示せぬ所有物登録画面をタッチパネル11に表示させる。ユーザは、撮影部12で所有物を撮影して撮影画像を生成するとともに、その所有物の特徴(例えば水色の小さなバッグ等)を所有物登録画面で入力する。そして、制御部15は、ユーザのメールアドレス、並びにそのユーザの所有物の撮影画像及び特徴等の所有物に関する情報を含む所有物登録要求を通信部13からネットワークNを介して管理サーバ30に送信することにより、ユーザの所有物の登録を管理サーバ30に要求する。管理サーバ30の制御部35は、ユーザ端末10からネットワークNを介して送信される所有物登録要求を通信部33で受信したことに応答して、所有物登録要求から特定されるユーザのメールアドレスと、そのユーザの所有物の撮影画像及び特徴と、を対応付けてユーザDB341に登録する。 Thereafter, the top screen 100 shown in FIG. 3A is displayed on the touch panel 11 of the user terminal 10. The user taps the “register property” icon displayed on the top screen 100 or the “register property” icon always displayed on the lower side of the screen to display an unregistered property registration screen on the touch panel 11. . The user shoots the property with the photographing unit 12 to generate a photographed image, and inputs the characteristics of the property (for example, a light blue small bag) on the property registration screen. Then, the control unit 15 transmits the property registration request including the user's e-mail address and information about the property, such as a photographed image and features of the user's property, from the communication unit 13 to the management server 30 via the network N. By doing so, the management server 30 is requested to register the user's property. The control unit 35 of the management server 30 responds to the reception of the property registration request transmitted from the user terminal 10 via the network N by the communication unit 33, and the mail address of the user specified from the property registration request And the captured image and feature of the user's property are registered in the user DB 341 in association with each other.
 ここで、ユーザが通勤途中(例えば小田急線~JR山手線~東京メトロ日比谷線での通勤途中等)に自己の所有物(例えば水色の小さなバッグ等)を遺失し、その遺失物を何人かが駅(例えば新宿駅等)で拾得して駅員に届けた場合、その拾得物は、駅(例えば新宿駅等)の保管所で保管される。保管所の従業員(保管者)は、保管者端末20の撮影部22で拾得物を撮影して撮影画像を生成するとともに、その拾得物の特徴をタッチパネル21で入力する。そして、制御部25は、保管者ID、拾得物の撮影画像及び特徴、並びにその拾得場所(例えば新宿駅等の駅名等)等の拾得物に関する情報を含む拾得物登録要求を通信部23からネットワークNを介して管理サーバ30に送信する。管理サーバ30の制御部35は、保管者端末20からネットワークNを介して送信される拾得物登録要求を通信部33で受信したことに応答して、拾得物登録要求から特定される保管者ID、拾得物の撮影画像及び特徴、並びに拾得場所と、その登録日時と、を対応付けて拾得物DB342に登録する。 Here, the user loses his / her property (for example, a light blue small bag) during commuting (for example, commuting on the Odakyu Line-JR Yamanote Line-Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line), and some of the lost items When picked up at a station (for example, Shinjuku Station) and delivered to the station staff, the found items are stored at a storage in the station (for example, Shinjuku Station). An employee (custodian) at the storage room photographs the found object with the photographing unit 22 of the retainer terminal 20 to generate a photographed image, and inputs the feature of the found object on the touch panel 21. Then, the control unit 25 sends a found item registration request including information on the found item such as the custodian ID, the photographed image and characteristics of the found item, and the found location (for example, a station name such as Shinjuku Station) from the communication unit 23 to the network. To the management server 30 via N. The control unit 35 of the management server 30 responds to the reception of the found-item registration request transmitted from the custodian terminal 20 via the network N by the communication unit 33, and the custodian ID specified from the found-item registration request Then, the captured image and characteristics of the found item, the found location, and the registration date and time thereof are associated with each other and registered in the found item DB 342.
 その後、ユーザが自己の所有物を遺失したことに気付いた場合において、その遺失物が未登録であるときには、その遺失物の特徴を所有物登録画面で入力して管理サーバ30のユーザDB341に登録してから、その遺失物が登録済みであるときには、そのまま「持ち物リスト」のアイコンをタップして、図3(b)に示す所有物一覧画面110をタッチパネル21に表示させる。なお、遺失物が未登録である場合において、その遺失物の撮影画像がないときには、撮影画像を管理サーバ30のユーザDB341に登録しなければよい。次に、ユーザは、所有物一覧画面110で遺失物を選択して、図3(c)に示す所有物詳細画面120をユーザ端末10のタッチパネル11に表示させる。なお、ユーザは、所有物詳細画面120で遺失物の特徴や遺失範囲を伝えるメッセージを入力することができる。続いて、ユーザは、所有物詳細画面120で「落とし物に登録する」のアイコンをタップして、図4に示す遺失物登録画面130をタッチパネル11に表示させる。そして、ユーザが遺失物登録画面130で遺失範囲(例えば小田急線~JR山手線~東京メトロ日比谷線での通勤途中等)及び遺失期間(例えば午前11時頃等)等を入力した後、「登録する」のアイコンをタップしたことに応答して、遺失物検索システム1は、遺失物検索処理を開始する。 Thereafter, when the user notices that his / her property has been lost, if the property has not been registered, the characteristics of the property are entered on the property registration screen and registered in the user DB 341 of the management server 30. Then, when the lost item has been registered, the “item list” icon is tapped as it is, and the property list screen 110 shown in FIG. If the lost item is not registered and there is no captured image of the lost item, the captured image may not be registered in the user DB 341 of the management server 30. Next, the user selects a lost item on the property list screen 110 and causes the touch panel 11 of the user terminal 10 to display the property detail screen 120 illustrated in FIG. The user can input a message that conveys the characteristics of the lost item and the range of the lost item on the property details screen 120. Subsequently, the user taps the “Register for Lost” icon on the property detail screen 120 to display the lost article registration screen 130 shown in FIG. 4 on the touch panel 11. Then, after the user inputs the lost range (for example, commuting on the Odakyu Line-JR Yamanote Line-Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line) and the lost period (for example, around 11:00 am) on the lost item registration screen 130, In response to tapping the “Yes” icon, the lost item search system 1 starts the lost item search process.
 図8及び図9は、遺失物検索処理の一例を示すフローチャートである。 8 and 9 are flowcharts showing an example of lost article search processing.
 遺失物検索処理において、まず、ユーザ端末10の制御部15は、ユーザのメールアドレス、遺失物の撮影画像及び特徴、並びに遺失物登録画面130で入力した遺失範囲及び遺失期間等の遺失物に関する情報を含む遺失物検索依頼を通信部13からネットワークNを介して管理サーバ30に送信する(図8のステップS1)。 In the lost item search process, first, the control unit 15 of the user terminal 10 provides information on lost items such as the user's email address, the photographed image and characteristics of the lost item, and the lost range and lost period entered on the lost item registration screen 130. Is sent from the communication unit 13 to the management server 30 via the network N (step S1 in FIG. 8).
 管理サーバ30の制御部35は、ユーザ端末10からネットワークNを介して送信される遺失物検索依頼を通信部33で受信したことに応答して(ステップS1)、拾得物DB342に登録されている拾得物のうちから、遺失物検索依頼から特定される遺失物の候補を検出する(ステップS2)。 The control unit 35 of the management server 30 is registered in the found item DB 342 in response to receiving the lost item search request transmitted from the user terminal 10 via the network N by the communication unit 33 (step S1). From the found items, lost item candidates specified from the lost item search request are detected (step S2).
 具体的に、制御部35は、拾得物DB342に登録されている返却済みフラグがオフの拾得物のうちから、遺失物検索依頼から特定される遺失物と特徴(例えば水色の小さなバッグ等)が合致し、拾得場所(例えば新宿駅等の駅名等)が遺失範囲(例えば小田急線~JR山手線~東京メトロ日比谷線での通勤途中等)に含まれ、登録日時が遺失期間に含まれる拾得物を検出する。続いて、制御部35は、既存の画像照合システムを用いて、拾得物DB342から検出した拾得物それぞれの撮影画像と、遺失物検索依頼から特定される遺失物の撮影画像と、の照合(画像照合)を行い、拾得物DB342から検出した拾得物それぞれと遺失物とのマッチング率を求める。そして、制御部35は、遺失物とのマッチング率が所定の閾値(例えば50%)以上の拾得物を遺失物の候補として検出する。 Specifically, the control unit 35 has a lost item and a feature (for example, a light blue small bag) identified from a lost item search request among found items whose return flag is registered in the found item DB 342 is off. Matching and finding location (for example, station name such as Shinjuku Station) is included in the lost range (for example, commuting on the Odakyu Line-JR Yamanote Line-Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line), and the registration date is included in the lost period Is detected. Subsequently, the control unit 35 uses an existing image collation system to collate the photographed images of the found items detected from the found item DB 342 and the photographed images of the lost items identified from the lost item search request (images). The matching rate between each found item detected from the found item DB 342 and the lost item is obtained. Then, the control unit 35 detects a found item having a matching rate with the lost item of a predetermined threshold (for example, 50%) or more as a lost item candidate.
 制御部35は、遺失物の候補を検出できなかった場合(ステップS1;No)、その旨を示す検出不能通知を通信部33からネットワークNを介して、遺失物検索依頼を送信したユーザ端末10に送信する(ステップS2)。 When the control unit 35 cannot detect the lost item candidate (step S1; No), the user terminal 10 that has transmitted the lost item search request from the communication unit 33 via the network N to that effect is detected. (Step S2).
 そして、ユーザ端末10の制御部15は、管理サーバ30からネットワークNを介して送信される検出不能通知を通信部13で受信したことに応答して(ステップS1)、遺失物の候補を検出できなかった旨をタッチパネル11に表示する(ステップS2)。 And the control part 15 of the user terminal 10 can detect the candidate of a lost article in response to having received the undetectable notification transmitted from the management server 30 via the network N by the communication part 13 (step S1). A message to the effect that there has not been is displayed on the touch panel 11 (step S2).
 その後、管理サーバ30の制御部35は、保管者端末20からネットワークNを介して送信される拾得物登録要求を通信部33で受信したことに応答して(ステップS1;Yes)、拾得物登録要求から特定される保管者ID、拾得物の撮影画像及び特徴、並びに拾得場所と、その登録日時と、を対応付けて拾得物DB342に登録するとともに(ステップS2)、ステップS2と同様の処理を行って、拾得物DB342に新たに登録した拾得物が、遺失物検索依頼から特定される遺失物の候補であるか否かを判別する(ステップS3)。 Thereafter, the control unit 35 of the management server 30 responds to the reception of the found-item registration request transmitted from the custodian terminal 20 via the network N by the communication unit 33 (step S1; Yes), and the found-item registration. The custodian ID specified from the request, the photographed image and characteristics of the found item, the found location, and the registration date and time are registered in association with the found item DB 342 (step S2), and the same processing as step S2 is performed. Then, it is determined whether the found item newly registered in the found item DB 342 is a candidate for the lost item specified from the lost item search request (step S3).
 そして、制御部35は、遺失物の候補を検出できた場合(ステップS1;Yes)、及び新たに登録した拾得物が遺失物の候補であると判別した場合(ステップS3;Yes)、その遺失物の候補と、その候補と遺失物とのマッチング率と、を含む検索結果通知を通信部33からネットワークNを介して、遺失物検索依頼を送信したユーザ端末10に送信する(ステップS1)。なお、制御部35は、新たに登録した拾得物が遺失物の候補であると判別した場合、その遺失物の候補と、その候補と遺失物とのマッチング率と、を通信部33からネットワークNを介して、遺失物検索依頼を送信したユーザ端末10にプッシュ通知してもよい。 When the control unit 35 can detect the lost article candidate (step S1; Yes) and determines that the newly registered found is a candidate for the lost article (step S3; Yes), the lost item is detected. A search result notification including an object candidate and a matching rate between the candidate and the lost item is transmitted from the communication unit 33 to the user terminal 10 that has transmitted the lost item search request via the network N (step S1). In addition, when the control unit 35 determines that the newly registered found item is a lost item candidate, the control unit 35 sends the lost item candidate and the matching rate between the candidate and the lost item from the communication unit 33 to the network N. The user terminal 10 that has transmitted the lost item search request may be notified by push.
 ユーザ端末10の制御部15は、管理サーバ30からネットワークNを介して送信される検索結果通知を通信部13で受信したことに応答して(ステップS1)、検索結果通知から特定される遺失物の候補と、その候補と遺失物とのマッチング率と、を一覧にして示す図5(a)の検索結果画面140をタッチパネル11に表示する(図9のステップS2)。 The control unit 15 of the user terminal 10 responds to the reception of the search result notification transmitted from the management server 30 via the network N by the communication unit 13 (step S1), and the lost item identified from the search result notification A search result screen 140 shown in FIG. 5A is displayed on the touch panel 11 as a list of the candidates and matching rates between the candidates and the lost items (step S2 in FIG. 9).
 その後、制御部15は、ユーザが検索結果画面140に一覧表示される遺失物の候補のうちから、自己の遺失物を選択したことに応答して(ステップS1;Yes)、その詳細を示す図5(b)の遺失物候補詳細画面150をタッチパネル11に表示する(ステップS2)。 Thereafter, the control unit 15 responds to the user selecting his / her lost item from among the lost item candidates listed on the search result screen 140 (step S1; Yes), and shows the details thereof. The lost / candidate candidate detail screen 150 of 5 (b) is displayed on the touch panel 11 (step S2).
 そして、制御部15は、ユーザが遺失物候補詳細画面150をタップしたことに応答して(ステップS1;Yes)、遺失物候補詳細画面150に表示される遺失物の候補を、自己の遺失物として指定する遺失物指定を通信部13からネットワークNを介して管理サーバ30に送信する(ステップS2)。 Then, in response to the user tapping the lost item candidate detail screen 150 (step S1; Yes), the control unit 15 selects the lost item candidate displayed on the lost item candidate detail screen 150 as its own lost item. The lost item designation designated as is transmitted from the communication unit 13 to the management server 30 via the network N (step S2).
 なお、遺失物がクレジットカードやキャッシュカード等である場合、ユーザが遺失物候補詳細画面150をタップしたことに応答して、制御部15は、遺失物指定を管理サーバ30に送信するとともに、遺失物であるクレジットカードやキャッシュカード等をストップリストに入れて、そのカード発行事業者の紛失・盗難受付デスクの電話番号をタッチパネル11に表示してもよい。さらに、遺失物候補詳細画面150には、SNS(Social Networking Service)のシェアボタンが設けられていてもよく、ユーザは、遺失物候補詳細画面150でSNSのシェアボタンをタップして、遺失物の詳細をSNS上の友人に拡散することができるようにしてもよい。 When the lost item is a credit card, a cash card, or the like, in response to the user tapping the lost item candidate details screen 150, the control unit 15 transmits the lost item designation to the management server 30, and also the lost item. A credit card, a cash card, or the like, which is a thing, may be put in the stop list, and the telephone number of the lost / stolen reception desk of the card issuer may be displayed on the touch panel 11. Furthermore, the lost item candidate detail screen 150 may be provided with an SNS (Social Networking Service) share button, and the user taps the SNS share button on the lost item candidate detail screen 150 to display the lost item. Details may be disseminated to friends on the SNS.
 管理サーバ30の制御部35は、ユーザ端末10からネットワークNを介して送信される遺失物指定を通信部33で受信したことに応答して(ステップS1)、遺失物指定から特定される遺失物の候補である拾得物に対応する保管者IDを拾得物DB342から特定する(ステップS2)。 The control unit 35 of the management server 30 responds to the reception of the lost item designation transmitted from the user terminal 10 via the network N by the communication unit 33 (step S1), and the lost item specified from the lost item designation. The custodian ID corresponding to the found item that is a candidate is identified from the found item DB 342 (step S2).
 続いて、制御部35は、拾得物DB342から特定した保管者IDに対応する保管所の連絡先(例えば電話番号やメールアドレス等)を保管者DB340から特定する(ステップS1)。 Subsequently, the control unit 35 specifies from the custodian DB 340 the contact information (for example, a telephone number or an e-mail address) of the custodian corresponding to the custodian ID specified from the found item DB 342 (step S1).
 そして、制御部35は、保管者DB340から特定した保管所の連絡先を通知する保管所通知を通信部33からネットワークNを介して、遺失物指定を送信したユーザ端末10に送信する(ステップS1)。また、制御部35は、保管所通知に加えて、或いはこれに代えて、ユーザの遺失物を拾得物として保管する保管所の連絡先を通知する電子メールを通信部33からネットワークNを介して、遺失物指定から特定されるユーザのメールアドレスに宛てて送信してもよい。 Then, the control unit 35 transmits a storage location notification for notifying the contact information of the storage location identified from the custodian DB 340 from the communication unit 33 to the user terminal 10 that has transmitted the lost item designation via the network N (step S1) ). Further, in addition to or instead of the storage location notification, the control unit 35 sends an e-mail notifying the contact information of the storage location that stores the user's lost items as found items from the communication unit 33 via the network N. , It may be sent to the user's e-mail address specified from the lost article designation.
 ユーザ端末10の制御部15は、管理サーバ30からネットワークNを介して送信される保管所通知を通信部13で受信したことに応答して(ステップS1)、保管所通知から特定されるユーザの遺失物を拾得物として保管する保管所の連絡先(例えば電話番号やメールアドレス等)をタッチパネル11に表示して(ステップS2)、遺失物検索処理を終了する。 The control unit 15 of the user terminal 10 responds to the reception of the storage location notification transmitted from the management server 30 via the network N by the communication unit 13 (step S1), and the user specified by the storage location notification The contact information (for example, telephone number or e-mail address) of the storage where the lost item is stored as a found item is displayed on the touch panel 11 (step S2), and the lost item search process is terminated.
 その後、ユーザは、タッチパネル11に表示される連絡先(例えば電話番号やメールアドレス等)の保管所に連絡して自己の遺失物の特徴を保管者に伝える。保管者は、ユーザの言う遺失物の特徴と、保管所に保管している拾得物の特徴と、を照合する。そして、保管者は、保管所に保管している拾得物が、そのユーザの遺失物であると判断した場合、ユーザに直接手渡した方がよいものであれば、ユーザに拾得物を取りに来てもらい、郵送してもよいものであれば、ユーザから郵送先を聞いて、その郵送先に拾得物を郵送すればよい。 After that, the user informs the custodian of the characteristics of his / her lost property by contacting the storage of the contact information (for example, telephone number or e-mail address) displayed on the touch panel 11. The custodian collates the characteristics of the lost article that the user says with the characteristics of the found items stored in the storage. When the founder determines that the found item stored in the depository is the lost item of the user, he / she can come to the user to collect the found item if it is better to hand it directly to the user. If it is acceptable to send it by mail, ask the user for the mailing address and mail the found item to the mailing address.
 そして、保管者は、ユーザに拾得物を返却した後、保管者端末20のタッチパネル21を操作して、保管者IDと、ユーザに返却した拾得物に関する情報と、を含む拾得物返却通知を通信部23からネットワークNを介して管理サーバ30に送信する。 Then, after returning the found item to the user, the custodian operates the touch panel 21 of the custodian terminal 20 to communicate a found item return notification including the custodian ID and information about the found item returned to the user. The data is transmitted from the unit 23 to the management server 30 via the network N.
 管理サーバ30の制御部35は、保管者端末20からネットワークNを介して送信される拾得物返却通知を通信部33で受信したことに応答して、拾得物返却通知から特定される保管者ID及び拾得物に関する情報に対応付けて拾得物DB342に登録されている返却済みフラグをオンする。 The control unit 35 of the management server 30 responds to the reception of the found item return notification transmitted from the custodian terminal 20 via the network N by the communication unit 33, and the custodian ID specified from the found item return notification. The returned flag registered in the found-item DB 342 is turned on in association with the found-item information.
 以上説明したように、本実施形態に係る遺失物検索システム1において、管理サーバ30は、各所で保管される拾得物に関する情報を登録する拾得物DB342を備えている。そして、管理サーバ30の制御部35は、ユーザ端末10からネットワークNを介して送信される遺失物の検索依頼を受信したことに応答して(ステップS1)、検索依頼された遺失物に関する情報と、拾得物DB342に登録されている拾得物に関する情報と、に基づいて、検索依頼された遺失物の候補を、拾得物DB342に登録されている拾得物のうちから検出する(ステップS2)。 As described above, in the lost item search system 1 according to the present embodiment, the management server 30 includes the found item DB 342 for registering information about found items stored in various places. Then, the control unit 35 of the management server 30 responds to the reception of the lost item search request transmitted from the user terminal 10 via the network N (step S1), and information on the lost item requested to be searched. Based on the information related to the found item registered in the found item DB 342, the candidate for the lost item requested to be searched is detected from the found items registered in the found item DB 342 (step S2).
 具体的に、拾得物に関する情報には、拾得物の撮影画像及び特徴と、拾得物の拾得場所(例えば新宿駅等の駅名等)と、拾得物DB342への登録日時と、が含まれている。また、遺失物に関する情報には、遺失物の撮影画像及び特徴と、遺失物の遺失範囲(例えば小田急線~JR山手線~東京メトロ日比谷線での通勤途中等)と、遺失物の遺失期間と、が含まれている。そして、制御部35は、ステップS2において、拾得物DB342に登録されている返却済みフラグがオフの拾得物のうちから、遺失物検索依頼から特定される遺失物と特徴(例えば水色の小さなバッグ等)が合致し、拾得場所(例えば新宿駅等の駅名等)が遺失範囲(例えば小田急線~JR山手線~東京メトロ日比谷線での通勤途中等)に含まれ、登録日時が遺失期間に含まれる拾得物を検出する。続いて、制御部35は、拾得物DB342から検出した拾得物それぞれの撮影画像と、遺失物検索依頼から特定される遺失物の撮影画像と、で画像照合を行って、拾得物DB342から検出した拾得物それぞれと遺失物とのマッチング率を求め、遺失物とのマッチング率が所定の閾値(例えば50%)以上の拾得物を遺失物の候補として検出する。 Specifically, the information about the found item includes a photographed image and characteristics of the found item, a found place of the found item (for example, a station name such as Shinjuku Station), and a registration date and time in the found item DB 342. . In addition, information on lost items includes the images and characteristics of the lost items, the range of lost items (for example, commuting on the Odakyu Line-JR Yamanote Line-Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line), and the lost period of lost items. ,It is included. Then, in step S2, the control unit 35 determines the lost item and characteristics (for example, a light blue small bag etc.) identified from the lost item search request from the found items whose return flag registered in the found item DB 342 is off. ) Match, and the location where it was picked up (for example, the station name such as Shinjuku Station) is included in the lost range (for example, commuting on the Odakyu Line-JR Yamanote Line-Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line), and the registration date is included in the lost period Detect found items. Subsequently, the control unit 35 collates the images of the found items detected from the found item DB 342 and the shot images of the lost items specified from the lost item search request, and detects them from the found item DB 342. A matching rate between each found item and the lost item is obtained, and a found item having a matching rate with the lost item equal to or higher than a predetermined threshold (for example, 50%) is detected as a lost item candidate.
 そして、制御部35は、ステップS2で検出した遺失物の候補をネットワークNを介してユーザ端末10に通知する(ステップS1)。その後、制御部35は、ステップS1で通知した遺失物の候補のうちのいずれかが、ユーザ端末10で選択されたことに応答して、選択された遺失物の候補である拾得物の保管所の連絡先を、ネットワークNを介してユーザ端末10に通知する(ステップS1)。 Then, the control unit 35 notifies the user terminal 10 of the lost item candidate detected in step S2 via the network N (step S1). Thereafter, the control unit 35 responds to selection of any of the lost item candidates notified in step S1 on the user terminal 10, and stores the found item that is the selected lost item candidate. Is notified to the user terminal 10 via the network N (step S1).
 また、制御部35は、遺失物の検索依頼を受信した後、新たに拾得物に関する情報を拾得物DB341に登録した場合(ステップS1;Yes)、検索依頼された遺失物に関する情報と、新たに登録した拾得物に関する情報と、に基づいて、ステップS2と同様の処理を行って、新たに登録した拾得物が遺失物の候補である否かを判別する(ステップS3)。そして、制御部35は、ステップS3で新たに登録した拾得物が遺失物の候補であると判別した場合、新たに登録した拾得物を遺失物の候補としてネットワークNを介してユーザ端末10に通知する(ステップS1)。 In addition, after receiving the lost item search request, the control unit 35 newly registers information related to the found item in the found item DB 341 (step S1; Yes), and newly finds information related to the lost item requested to be searched. Based on the information on the found found item, the same processing as in step S2 is performed to determine whether the newly registered found item is a candidate for a lost item (step S3). If the newly found found item is determined as a lost item candidate in step S3, the control unit 35 notifies the user terminal 10 of the newly registered found item as a lost item candidate via the network N. (Step S1).
 このように、本実施形態に係る遺失物検索システム1によれば、駅やホテル等の従業員(保管者)は、拾得物に関する情報を予め拾得物DB342に登録しておきさえすれば、また、ユーザは、遺失物の検索依頼をしておきさえすれば、後は管理サーバ30が自動で、各所で保管される拾得物のうちから、検索依頼された遺失物の候補を検索し、その検索結果をユーザに通知してくれるため、ユーザ及び保管者の手間を大幅に低減させることができる。 As described above, according to the lost article search system 1 according to the present embodiment, an employee (custody) such as a station or a hotel registers information about found items in the found item DB 342 in advance. As long as the user makes a search for lost items, the management server 30 automatically searches for found lost items that have been requested from the found items stored at various locations. Since the search result is notified to the user, the trouble of the user and the custodian can be greatly reduced.
 また、管理サーバ30は、遺失物の候補それぞれの撮影画像と遺失物の撮影画像との画像照合を行う機能を有しているため、駅やホテル等の従業員(保管者)は、拾得物と遺失物との照合を行う手間を省くことができる。さらに、ユーザは、検索アプリに所有物を予め登録しておけば、遺失したときに迅速に検索することができる。 Further, since the management server 30 has a function of performing image collation between each captured image of the lost property candidate and the captured image of the lost property, employees (custodians) of stations, hotels, etc. It is possible to save the trouble of collating with lost items. Furthermore, if the user registers the property in the search application in advance, the user can quickly search for lost items.
 加えて、画像照合の結果をデータベース化してビッグデータを構築することで、幅広い業界に活用することができる。また、2020年の東京オリンピックに向けて外国人観光客の遺失物にも対応することができる。 In addition, it can be used in a wide range of industries by building the big data by creating a database of image matching results. In addition, we can deal with the loss of foreign tourists for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
 さらに、管理サーバ30では、ユーザが指定した遺失物の候補である拾得物と、ユーザの個人情報(例えばメールアドレス等)と、が結び付くため、拾得物の所有者以外の者が保管所で遺失物を詐取することを可及的に防止することができる。 Furthermore, the management server 30 associates the found item, which is a candidate for the lost item designated by the user, with the user's personal information (for example, an e-mail address). It is possible to prevent as much as possible from stealing things.
 この結果、ユーザとしては、遺失物を簡易かつ迅速に検索することができ、また、拾得物を保管する会社としても、拾得物に関して多大な人員、費用、及び時間を割く必要をなくすことができる。 As a result, the user can easily and quickly search for the lost item, and the company that stores the found item can eliminate the need for a large amount of personnel, cost, and time for the found item. .
