[Overview]
In recent years, due to the progress of double-working and nuclear family, under the circumstances where it is not possible or not able to receive the parenting support of grandparents who should have conventionally supported child rearing. For this reason, in recent years, the burden of child-rearing such as mothers on child-raising has increased. Because of this, caregivers have troubles with child care. Among the worries about parenting children, it is said that worries that account for the largest proportion are, for example, in the case of infants, worries about "the discipline of infants". For example, "preschooling of an infant" includes learning of lifestyle behavior of an infant.

Infants learn to take predetermined actions spontaneously, adapting to rewards and punishments, called operant conditioning. For this reason, if the infant is praised not only by the mother but also by the father, the grandparents, etc., the feeling of wanting to learn more about lifestyle behavior becomes easier to work. However, as in recent years, under circumstances where it is difficult for fathers, grandparents, etc. to participate in childcare of infants, it is difficult for children to want to learn lifestyle habits. From this, an information communication apparatus, an action support system, an information communication method, and a program for supporting child care of a carer are required.

An inquiry is made (S12). In addition, the second terminal device 12 transmits support start information to the third terminal device 13.

In addition, the plurality of first terminal devices 11 obtain an admiration inquiry from the second terminal device 12. Each acclaimer 23 inputs the advisability on each first operation input unit 114. Each of the first terminal devices 11 can be praised or not by the praiser 23 inputting the praise or not on the first operation input unit 114 in order to make a response as to whether or not the infant 21 can be praised. (S21). That is, each first operation input unit 114 generates praise information and transmits the praise information to the third terminal device 13 through each first transmission unit 116b.

In addition, the behavior detection unit 141 of the third terminal device 13 that has acquired the support start information starts detection of the lifestyle behavior of the infant 21 (S31). Note that the process of step S31 may be omitted.

Next, the third reception unit 136 a of the third terminal device 13 receives the advisability information from each third terminal device 13 and outputs the information to the selection unit 143. The selection unit 143 selects a first terminal device 11 that can be praised among the praise information received from each of the third terminal devices 13. In the present embodiment, there are the first terminal devices 11 that can be praised (S32).

The selection unit 143 selects the first terminal device 11 with the fastest response from the selected first terminal devices 11 (S33). In other words, the first terminal device 11 corresponding to the acclaim information received earliest is selected.

The selection unit 143 may notify the selected first terminal device 11 that communication has been established, and communication can not be established for the other first terminal devices 11 not selected. You may notify

Next, the selection unit 143 establishes communication between the selected first terminal device 11 and the selected third terminal device 13 (S34). The selection unit 143 causes the third display unit 137 to display an image showing the state of the praiser 23 who praises the infant 21. A video indicating the appearance of the infant 21 is displayed on the first display unit 117 of the first terminal device 11, and the audio of the infant 21 is output from the first audio output unit 113. In addition, a video indicating the state of the acclaimer 23 is displayed on the third display unit 137 of the third terminal device 13, and the voice of the acclaimer 23 is output from the third audio output unit 133. As described above, in the behavior support system 1, it is possible to make a phone call so that the infant 21 and the praiser 23 make a video call.

Next, the operation of the behavior support system 1 will be described on the assumption that there is no applaudable person.

FIG. 4 is a sequence diagram when there is no applaudable person who praises the infant 21 in the action support system 1 according to the first embodiment.

The conditions in FIG. 4 are the same as the conditions in FIG. 3 except that it is assumed that there is a commendable person in FIG. 3. Therefore, the description of the same content is omitted.

First, the caregiver 22 operates the second terminal device 12 to start action support for the infant 21 (S11).

Next, the second terminal device 12 praises the plurality of first terminal devices 11 via the second transmission unit 126b whether the admiration person 23 can praise the infant 21 or not. An inquiry is made (S12).

In addition, the plurality of first terminal devices 11 obtain an admiration inquiry from the second terminal device 12. Each acclaimer 23 inputs the advisability on each first operation input unit 114. Each of the first terminal devices 11 can be praised or not by the praiser 23 inputting the praise or not on the first operation input unit 114 in order to make a response as to whether or not the infant 21 can be praised. (S21).

In addition, the behavior detection unit 141 of the third terminal device 13 that has acquired the support start information starts detection of the lifestyle behavior of the infant 21 (S31).

Next, the third reception unit 136 a of the third terminal device 13 receives the advisability information from each third terminal device 13 and outputs the information to the selection unit 143. The selection unit 143 selects a first terminal device 11 that can be praised among the praise information received from each of the third terminal devices 13. In the present embodiment, there is no applaudable first terminal device 11 (S35).

The selection unit 143 establishes communication between the third terminal device 13 and the second terminal device 12 (S36). That is, since the acclaimer 23 who holds the first terminal device 11 can not praise the infant 21, the communication between the second terminal device 12 held by the caregiver 22 and the third terminal device 13 of the infant 21 is established. . The selection unit 143 causes the third display unit 137 to display an image showing the state of the caregiver 22 who praises the infant 21. A video indicating the appearance of the infant 21 is displayed on the second display unit 127 of the second terminal device 12, and the audio of the infant 21 is output from the second audio output unit 123. In addition, a video indicating the condition of the caregiver 22 is displayed on the third display unit 137 of the third terminal device 13, and the voice of the caregiver 22 is output from the third audio output unit 133. As described above, in the behavior support system 1, it is possible to make a phone call so that the infant 21 and the caregiver 22 can make a video call.

Next, the operation of the third terminal device 13 will be described in detail.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the operation of the third terminal device 13 of the behavior support system 1 according to the first embodiment.

In FIG. 5, the mother is the caregiver 22, and the father and grandparents are the praisers 23. Further, it is assumed that the second terminal device 12, the plurality of first terminal devices 11 and the third terminal device 13 are in the activated state. In this embodiment, three first terminal devices 11 owned by each of a father and a grandparent are assumed.

First, the third terminal device 13 acquires support start information from the second terminal device 12 when the caregiver 22 starts the action support of the second terminal device 12 (S101).

Next, the behavior detection unit 141 detects the lifestyle behavior of the infant 21 at predetermined intervals to generate behavior information (S102). The action detection unit 141 outputs the generated action information to the determination unit 142 at predetermined intervals.

The determination unit 142 determines whether the infant 21 has achieved the lifestyle behavior from the acquired behavior information (S103).

If the judgment unit 142 judges that the infant 21 has achieved the lifestyle behavior based on the behavior information (that is, if the result of the determination in S103 is YES), the judgment unit 142 performs the determination. Information indicating the result is output to the selection unit 143.

On the other hand, when the judgment unit 142 can not judge that the infant 21 has achieved the lifestyle behavior based on the behavior information (in the case of NO at S103), the determination section does not achieve the lifestyle behavior. 142 returns to step S103 and makes the same determination.

If the determination unit 142 can not determine that the infant 21 has achieved the lifestyle behavior based on the behavior information (NO in S103), the determination unit 142 detects the lifestyle behavior of the infant 21 in step S102. It may be determined whether a predetermined period has elapsed since the start. If the predetermined period has not elapsed since the detection of the lifestyle behavior of the infant 21 has started, the determination unit 142 may return to step S103 and make the same determination. On the other hand, when a predetermined period has elapsed since the detection of the lifestyle behavior of the infant 21 has started, the determination unit 142 may end this flow. This is to prevent repeated repetition of the same judgment if lifestyle behavior is not achieved.

Note that steps S102 and S103 may be omitted. That is, if the communication between the third terminal device 13 and the first terminal device 11 or the second terminal device 12 is established, the caregiver 22 or the praiser 23 observes the infant 21 through the first terminal device 11 By doing this, the infant 21 may be praised as appropriate.

The selection unit 143 acquires praise information from the first terminal device 11 via the first reception unit 116a (S104).

When the selecting unit 143 acquires the information indicating the determination result from the determining unit 142, the selecting unit 143 selects whether or not there is a commendable person (S105). That is, the selecting unit 143 selects the third terminal devices 13 that can be praised from the respective praise information received from the plurality of third terminal devices 13.

When there is a person who can be praised from a plurality of praise information (YES in S105), the selection unit 143 determines the first terminal device 11 that corresponds to the praise information received earliest from the praise information that can be praised. It selects (S106).

The selection unit 143 establishes communication between the selected first terminal device 11 and third terminal device 13 (S107). Thus, the third terminal device 13 can communicate with the first terminal device 11, so that the praiser 23 can praise the infant 21.

On the other hand, when there is no approvable person in the plurality of praise information (NO in S105), the selection unit 143 establishes communication between the second terminal device 12 and the third terminal device 13 (S108). Since this means that any one of the plural praisers 23 can not praise any one of the plural praisers 23, in this case, the communication with the second terminal device 12 of the caregiver 22 is established. .

In the present embodiment, the third terminal device 13 starts the detection of the lifestyle behavior of the infant 21 after acquiring the support start information, but before the second terminal device 12 starts the action support, the third terminal device 13 starts the action support. The terminal device 13 may automatically detect the lifestyle behavior of the infant 21. In this case, for example, the detection of the lifestyle behavior of the infant 21 may be started after the power of the third terminal device 13 is turned on.

[Function effect]
Next, the operation and effects of the third terminal device 13, the action support system 1, the information communication method, and the program in the present embodiment will be described.

As described above, the third terminal device 13 according to the present embodiment is the third terminal device 13 that communicates with the first terminal device 11 used by each of the one or more applauses 23 who praise the infant 21. Also, the third terminal device 13 responds to each of the communication unit that receives a response to the inquiry as to whether or not the infant 21 can be praised, and the response of the one or more first terminal devices 11 to the inquiry. The selection unit 143 is configured to select the first terminal device 11 having the highest priority from the priority levels and to establish communication between the selected first terminal device 11 and the third terminal device 13.

Thus, the selection unit 143 selects the first terminal device 11 with the highest priority, and based on the selected result, communicates the first terminal device 11 with the highest priority and the third terminal device 13. Establish. The selection unit 143 establishes communication between the first terminal device 11 and the third terminal device 13 with the highest priority, so that the first terminal device 11 of the applaudable praiser 23 is the third terminal device of the infant 21. It can communicate with 13. For this reason, it becomes difficult to increase the processing burden of, for example, searching for the acclaimed acclaimer 23 and selecting the acclaimed acclaimer 23 as in the prior art.

Therefore, in the third terminal device 13, it is possible to suppress an increase in the processing load of the third terminal device 13.

In particular, in this third terminal device 13, for example, even when the caregiver 22 can not admire the infant 21, the third terminal device 13 praises the infant 21 for praise other than the caregiver 22. By inquiring of each acclaimer 23 via the one terminal device 11 and the third terminal device 13, the acclaimed acclaimer 23 can praise the infant 21. Therefore, for example, a father at work, a grandparent at home, etc. can praise the infant 21. Moreover, it is possible not only to praise the infant 21 but to support the lifestyle behavior of the infant 21. Thereby, even if the praiser 23 is at a distance from the infant 21, the praiser 23 can participate in child care of the infant 21. As a result, the infant 21 can voluntarily work on lifestyle behavior.

In addition, the action support system 1 according to the present embodiment includes a first terminal device 11 used by each of one or more appraisers 23 who praises the infant 21, a third terminal device 13 used by the infant 21, and The third terminal device 13 is communicable, and the second terminal device 12 used by the carer 22 of the infant 21 is provided.

Further, the information communication method according to the present embodiment is an information communication method in which the first terminal device 11 and the third terminal device 13 used by each of the one or more applauds 23 who praise the infant 21 communicate with each other. In the information communication method, an inquiry as to whether or not the infant 21 can be praised is received, and each of the one or more first terminal devices 11 transmits a response to the inquiry received by the receiving unit, and 1 The first terminal device 11 with the highest priority is selected from the priorities according to the responses of the first terminal device 11 described above, and the first terminal device 11 with the highest priority is selected based on the selected result. And establishing communication with the third terminal device 13.

Further, the program according to the present embodiment causes a computer to execute an information communication method.

Also in these information communication methods and programs, the same effects as those of the above-described third terminal device 13 can be obtained.

In addition, in the third terminal device 13 according to the present embodiment, the selection unit 143 is the most responsive to the order in which the third terminal device 13 obtains a response among the one or more first terminal devices 11. A high priority is determined, and based on the determined priority, communication between the first terminal device 11 with the highest priority and the third terminal device 13 is established.

Thus, the selection unit 143 determines the high priority according to the order in which the third terminal device 13 acquires the response, and the first terminal device with the highest priority based on the determined priority. 11 establish communication between the third terminal device 13 and the third terminal device 13. Therefore, by establishing communication between the first terminal device 11 having the highest priority, that is, the first terminal device 11 and the third terminal device 13 that correspond to the admirability information received earliest, an admirable admirable Communication between the first terminal device 11 of the person 23 and the third terminal device 13 of the infant 21 can be established. For this reason, one first terminal device 11 to establish communication with the third terminal device 13 can be easily selected from one or more first terminal devices 11. Therefore, an increase in the processing load of the third terminal device 13 can be suppressed.

In addition, the third terminal device 13 according to the present embodiment further displays a third imaging unit 131 for imaging the behavior of the infant 21, and a video in which at least one of the caregiver 22 and the praiser 23 admires the infant 21. A third display unit 137, an action detection unit 141 that detects the action of the infant 21 captured by the third imaging unit 131, and a determination unit 142 that determines whether the action of the infant 21 satisfies a predetermined condition Equipped with Then, when the behavior of the infant 21 satisfies the predetermined condition, the selection unit 143 causes the third display unit 137 to display a video applauding the infant 21.

As described above, the action detection unit 141 detects the action of the infant 21 captured by the third imaging unit 131, whereby the determination unit 142 determines whether the action of the infant 21 satisfies the predetermined condition. . When the behavior of the infant 21 satisfies the predetermined condition, the selection unit 143 causes the third display unit 137 to display a video applauding the infant 21. Therefore, the infant 21 can be praised at the timing when the behavior of the infant 21 meets the predetermined condition. Thus, the third terminal device of the infant 21 determines whether the behavior of the infant 21 satisfies the predetermined condition via the first terminal device 11 or the second terminal device 12 as the fosterer 22 and the praiser 23. Since it is not necessary to directly confirm in 13, it is possible to reduce unnecessary communication such as communication between the first terminal device 11 or the second terminal device 12 and the third terminal device 13.

Second Embodiment
[Constitution]
The configuration of the third terminal device 13, the action support system 1, the information communication method, and the program according to the present embodiment will be described.

The present embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the priorities of the praisers are set in advance. The third terminal device 13, the action support system 1, the information communication method, and the program of the present embodiment are the same as those of the first embodiment unless otherwise specified, and the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals. Detailed description of the configuration is omitted.

In the action support system 1 of the present embodiment, the priorities of the one or more first terminal devices 11 are determined in advance. In other words, priorities are determined in advance among a plurality of caregivers. For example, the priority of the father may be the highest, the priority of the grandmother may be the second highest, and the priority of the grandfather may be the third highest.

In the action support system 1 of the present embodiment, when there is a response from the first terminal device 11 within a prescribed period from the time of making an inquiry, the selecting unit 143 receives one or more of the first responses that have been received. Communication is established between the first terminal device 11 having the highest priority and the third terminal device 13 among the terminal devices 11 based on a predetermined priority.

In the action support system 1 of the present embodiment, the priority is given including the mother who is a carer. The selection unit 143 determines which priority of one or more first terminal devices 11 is higher than that of the second terminal device 12. That is, in the present embodiment, the mother's priority is set to the lowest fourth. When the caretaker starts the behavior support system 1, it is considered that it is difficult to take care of the infant, so the priority is lower than the praiser.

In addition, in the action support system 1 of the present embodiment, when there is no response from any one or more of the first terminal devices 11 within a prescribed period from the time of making an inquiry, that is, praise information within the prescribed time Is not received, the selection unit 143 establishes communication between the second terminal device 12 and the third terminal device 13. Since this means that no one of the plural praisers can praise the infant, the communication between the second terminal equipment 12 of the caregiver and the third terminal equipment 13 of the infant Establish.

After the selection unit 143 acquires the information indicating the determination result from the determination unit 142, the selection unit 143 acquires support start information from the second terminal device 12, and then, whether or not praise information is acquired within a prescribed time period To judge. Specifically, the determination unit 142 determines, from the information indicating the point of time when the inquiry included in the support start information is made, whether or not the approving information is acquired within a prescribed time. “After obtaining support start information from the second terminal device 12” is synonymous with “from the time when the second terminal device 12 makes an inquiry to the first terminal device 11”.

In addition, even if the selection unit 143 earns praise information within the specified time, it means that any praiser can not praise the infant if there is no praise possible person. Also in this case, communication between the second terminal device 12 of the caregiver and the third terminal device 13 of the infant is established.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the operation of the third terminal device 13 of the action support system 1 according to the second embodiment.

In FIG. 6, the mother is the fosterer and the father and grandparents are the praisers. Further, it is assumed that the second terminal device 12, the plurality of first terminal devices 11 and the third terminal device 13 are in the activated state. In this embodiment, three first terminal devices 11 owned by each of a father and a grandparent are assumed. The description of the same operations as those in FIG. 5 will be omitted.

Next, the behavior detection unit 141 detects the lifestyle behavior of the infant at predetermined intervals and generates behavior information (S102). The action detection unit 141 outputs the generated action information to the determination unit 142 at predetermined intervals.

The determination unit 142 determines, from the acquired behavior information, whether or not the infant has achieved the lifestyle behavior (S103).

When the infant achieves the lifestyle behavior, that is, when the determination unit 142 determines that the infant has achieved the lifestyle behavior based on the behavior information (YES in S103), the determination unit 142 determines the determination result. The information to be displayed is output to the selection unit 143.

On the other hand, if the judgment unit 142 can not judge that the infant has achieved the lifestyle behavior based on the behavior information, that is, if the infant has not achieved the lifestyle behavior (NO in S103), the determination unit 142 determines Returning to step S103, the same determination is made.

After acquiring the support start information from the second terminal device 12, the selection unit 143 determines whether or not praise information has been acquired within a prescribed time (S201).

If praise information is acquired within a prescribed time after acquiring support start information from the second terminal device 12 (YES in S201), the selecting unit 143 acquires information indicating the determination result from the determining unit 142, It is selected whether there is an applaudable person (S105).

When there is a commendable person from a plurality of commendable information (YES in S105), the selection unit 143 selects the first terminal device 11 of the commendable person of highest priority from the commendable approving information. (S106).

The selection unit 143 establishes communication between the selected first terminal device 11 and third terminal device 13 (S107). As a result, the third terminal device 13 can communicate with the first terminal device 11, so that the praiser can praise the infant.

On the other hand, when the support start information is acquired from the second terminal device 12 and praise information is not acquired within a prescribed time (NO in S201), or even if YES in step S201, a plurality of praise is possible When there is no applaudable person in the information (NO in S105), the selection unit 143 establishes communication between the second terminal device 12 and the third terminal device 13 (S108).

As described above, in the third terminal device 13 according to the present embodiment, the priorities of the one or more first terminal devices 11 are determined in advance. In addition, if there is a response from the first terminal device 11 within a prescribed period from the time of making an inquiry, the selecting unit 143 determines in advance among the one or more first terminal devices 11 that have received a response. Based on the priority, communication between the first terminal device 11 with the highest priority and the third terminal device 13 is established.

According to this, based on the priority determined in advance, the selection unit 143 communicates the first terminal device 11 of the highest praiser among the praise possible persons and the third terminal device 13 of the infant. Establish. As a result, since it is not necessary to search for a commendable accomplices and select a commendable accomplices as in the prior art, this third terminal device 13 hardly increases the processing load. Become.

Also, by setting priorities in advance, a praiser suitable for infants can praise infants. As a result, the infant can tackle lifestyle behavior voluntarily.

In addition, in the third terminal device 13 according to the present embodiment, the third terminal device 13 can further communicate with the second terminal device 12 used by an infant caregiver. Also, if there is no response from any one or more of the first terminal devices 11 within a prescribed period from the time of making the inquiry, the selecting unit 143 compares the second terminal device 12 with the third terminal device 13. Establish communication.

According to this, for example, since the caregiver can recognize that the praiser can not praise the infant, it is confirmed that the caregiver has praised the infant for the praiser. Since it is not necessary, unnecessary communication between the first terminal device 11 and the second terminal device 12 can be reduced.

In addition, when the second terminal device 12 makes an inquiry to the first terminal device 11 and there is no response from the first terminal device 11 within a prescribed period, that is, the third terminal device 13 receives from the first terminal device 11 If the response has not been received, the acclaimer can not praise the infant. For this reason, the selection unit 143 establishes communication between the second terminal device 12 of the caregiver and the third terminal device 13 of the infant. In this way, it is possible to surely praise the infant about the lifestyle behavior achieved by the infant.

In addition, the third terminal device 13 according to the present embodiment can further communicate with the second terminal device 12 used by an infant caregiver. In addition, the selection unit 143 further determines which priority of one or more first terminal devices 11 is higher than that of the second terminal device 12, and based on the determined priorities, the selection unit 143 has the highest priority. Communication between the terminal device 11 and the third terminal device 13 is established.

According to this, the priority of the first terminal device 11 of the acclaimer is determined to be higher than that of the second terminal device 12 of the caregiver. Therefore, even in an environment where it is difficult for the caregiver to take care of the infant, the praiser can praise the infant with priority over the caregiver. For this reason, it is possible to create an environment in which it is easier for children to participate in childcare.

In addition, the praisers can praise the infants, thereby reducing the burden on the caregivers.

The same effects as those of the first embodiment can be obtained for the other effects of the present embodiment.

First, when the caregiver starts the action support of the second terminal device 12, the third terminal device 313 acquires support start information from the second terminal device 12 (S101).

The selection unit 143 establishes communication between the selected first terminal device 11 and the third terminal device 313 (S107). As a result, the third terminal device 313 becomes communicable with the first terminal device 11, so that the praiser can praise the infant.

On the other hand, when the support start information is acquired from the second terminal device 12 and no praise information is acquired within the prescribed time (NO in S201), there are no approvable persons in the plurality of praise information. In the case (NO in S105), the selection unit 143 inquires of the second terminal device 12 via the third transmission unit 136b whether or not the caregiver can praise the infant (S302). The caregiver makes a response to the third terminal device 313 via the second terminal device 12 as to whether or not the infant can be praised. That is, the second terminal device 12 transmits the advisability information to the third terminal device 313.

If the admiration information can be praised (YES in S302), the selection unit 143 establishes communication between the second terminal device 12 of the caregiver and the third terminal device 313 of the infant (S108). This allows the caregiver to praise the infant.

On the other hand, if the admiration information is not appreciable (NO in S302), the selection unit 143 selects an image suitable for the infant's lifestyle habit from the plurality of images stored in the storage unit 144 and selects the image Are displayed on the third display unit 137 (S303). In this manner, in the action support system 300, an infant such as a character, a mascot or an avatar or the like of a praiser or a caregiver can praise the infant who has achieved the lifestyle habit.

[Function effect]
Next, the operation and effects of the third terminal device 313, the information communication method, and the program in the present embodiment will be described.

As described above, the third terminal device 313 according to the present embodiment further includes the storage unit 144 that stores a video that praises an infant. In addition, the third terminal device 313 can further communicate with the second terminal device 12 used by the infant caregiver. Then, when there is no response from any one or more of the first terminal device 11 and the second terminal device 12 within a prescribed period from the time of making the inquiry, the selecting unit 143 is stored in the storage unit 144. The video is displayed on the third display unit 137.

According to this, when there is no response from any one or more of the first terminal device 11 and the second terminal device 12 within the specified period from the time of making the inquiry, the selecting unit 143 stores in the storage unit 144 The displayed image is displayed on the third display unit 137. For this reason, even if it becomes a situation where not only the acclaimer but also the caregiver can not admire the infant, the image stored in the storage unit 144 more reliably indicates the infant as to the lifestyle behavior achieved by the infant. It can be praised. As a result, since communication between the first terminal device 11 or the second terminal device 12 and the third terminal device 313 is not performed, the first terminal device 11 or the second terminal device 12 and the third terminal device 313 The amount of communication can be reduced.
