特許文献1の技術では、利用者が搭乗予定機内に預ける手荷物の管理手法については考慮されていない。搭乗予定機に利用者の手荷物を積載する作業、搭乗予定機の出発時間までに搭乗ゲートに現れない未搭乗客の手荷物を搭乗予定機から下ろす作業等が適切に行われない場合、搭乗予定機の出発時間の遅延が発生する可能性もある。
技術 The technique of Patent Document 1 does not consider a method of managing baggage that a user leaves in an aircraft to be boarded. If the work of loading the baggage of the user on the aircraft to be boarded or the work of unloading the baggage of the non-passenger who does not appear at the boarding gate by the departure time of the aircraft to be boarded is not properly performed, the aircraft to be boarded The departure time may be delayed.
搭乗予定機に積載される手荷物の管理手法として、手荷物を搭乗予定機に積載するための積載地点において、作業員が、情報コードリーダを用いて、手荷物に取り付けられた荷物タグに表示された情報コードに記録された荷物識別情報(例えば、利用者の管理番号、手荷物識別情報等)を一つずつ読み取り、読み取られた荷物識別情報と、当該手荷物が積載されるべき搭乗予定機内の位置に関係する積載位置関係情報と、を対応付けて管理端末によって管理する手法が考えられる。
As a method of managing baggage to be loaded on the aircraft to be boarded, the information displayed on the baggage tag attached to the baggage using the information code reader at the loading point for loading the baggage on the aircraft to be boarded The luggage identification information (for example, the user's management number, baggage identification information, etc.) recorded in the code is read one by one, and the read luggage identification information is related to the position of the baggage where the baggage is to be loaded in the scheduled boarding aircraft There is a method of associating the information with the loaded positional relationship information and managing the information by the management terminal.
しかしながら、このような手法を採用する場合、作業員は、手荷物の積載の際、情報コードリーダを用いて、各手荷物に取り付けられた荷物タグに表示された情報コードを一つずつ読み取る必要がある。この際、作業員は、情報コードリーダの読取部を情報コードに近づける必要があるが、積載地点に到着する手荷物の向きは不規則であることが多く、情報コードリーダの読取部を情報コードに近づけるための作業員の負担が大きい。また、未搭乗客の手荷物を搭乗予定機から下ろす際も、作業員は、荷物タグに表示された情報コードを読み取って、当該手荷物が下ろす対象の手荷物であることを確認する必要があり、作業員の負担が大きい。
However, when such a method is adopted, the worker must use an information code reader to read the information codes displayed on the baggage tags attached to each baggage one by one when loading the baggage. . At this time, the operator needs to bring the reading part of the information code reader close to the information code, but the orientation of the baggage arriving at the loading point is often irregular, and the reading part of the information code reader is changed to the information code. The burden on workers to get closer is large. Also, when unloading passenger's baggage from the aircraft to be boarded, the worker must read the information code displayed on the baggage tag and confirm that the baggage is the baggage to be unloaded. The burden on members is large.
そのため、手荷物を適切に管理し得る技術の提供が望まれている。
Therefore, it is desired to provide technology that can appropriately manage baggage.
本明細書では、空港等の施設において飛行機等の乗物に登場する乗客の手荷物を適切に管理するとともに、その荷物管理の作業員の負担を軽減し、搭乗予定機等の乗物の出発時間の遅延の発生を抑制し得る技術を提供する。
In this specification, while appropriately managing the baggage of passengers appearing in vehicles such as airplanes at facilities such as airports, reducing the burden on workers of baggage management, delaying the departure time of vehicles such as aircraft to be boarded To provide a technology capable of suppressing the occurrence of the occurrence.

以上の処理に加え、所定の公知の搭乗チェックがすべて行われると、利用者C1は、搭乗予定機PDに搭乗することができる。
{Circle over (5)} In addition to the above-described processing, when all of the predetermined publicly known boarding checks are performed, the user C1 can board the boarding aircraft PD.
また、搭乗チェックの間、端末機器130の制御部140は、表示部132に、搭乗予定機PDに搭乗する予定のすべての利用者に関係する搭乗客データのリストを表示させることができる。搭乗係員ST3は、表示部132に表示されたリストを見ることで、搭乗済みの利用者と未搭乗の利用者とを把握することができる。また、搭乗係員ST3は、表示部132を見ることで、未搭乗の利用者が搭乗ロビーBLのどのエリアに滞在している可能性が高いのかを把握することもできる。
During the boarding check, the control unit 140 of the terminal device 130 can cause the display unit 132 to display a list of passenger data relating to all users who will be boarding the scheduled boarding machine PD. The boarding clerk ST3 can grasp the boarded user and the unboarded user by looking at the list displayed on the display unit 132. The boarding attendant ST3 can also see the display unit 132 to know in which area of the boarding lobby BL that the unboarded user is likely to be staying.
搭乗係員ST3は、出発時刻が近くなっても搭乗ゲート110に到着しない利用者(以下では未搭乗客と呼ぶ場合がある)がいる場合、操作部134を操作して、当該未搭乗客の搭乗客データを指定し、当該未搭乗客を呼び出す(即ち、ロビー係員ST2に未搭乗客を捜索させ、搭乗ゲート110に適切に誘導させる)ための呼出操作を入力することができる。その場合、制御部140は、通信I/F136及びネットワーク4を介して、サーバ300に呼出信号を送信する。呼出信号は、当該未搭乗客の搭乗客データの一部(例えば搭乗券ID)を含む。その場合、後で詳しく説明するように、サーバ300は、ネットワーク4を介して、係員端末150に呼出指示を送信する。そして、係員端末150には呼出画面(図8の符号400参照)が表示される。
When there is a user who may not arrive at the boarding gate 110 even when the departure time approaches (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as an unoccupied passenger), the crew member ST3 operates the operation unit 134 to board the unoccupied passenger. A call operation for designating the customer data and calling the unoccupied passenger (that is, causing the lobby attendant ST2 to search for the unoccupied passenger and appropriately guide the passenger to the boarding gate 110) can be input. In that case, the control unit 140 transmits a call signal to the server 300 via the communication I / F 136 and the network 4. The call signal includes a part of the passenger data (for example, the boarding pass ID) of the unboarded passenger. In that case, as will be described later in detail, the server 300 transmits a call instruction to the attendant terminal 150 via the network 4. Then, a call screen (see reference numeral 400 in FIG. 8) is displayed on the attendant terminal 150.
さらに、搭乗係員ST3は、出発時刻までに搭乗ゲート110に到着する見込みがないと考えられる未搭乗客がいる場合、操作部134を操作して、当該未搭乗客の搭乗客データを指定し、既に搭乗予定機PDに積載されている当該未搭乗客の手荷物を搭乗予定機PDから下ろす(即ち、積載地点の作業員ST4に手荷物を捜索させ、搭乗予定機PDの外に出させる)ための荷下ろし操作を入力することができる。ここで、未搭乗客が出発時刻までに搭乗ゲート110に到着する見込みがない場合とは、例えば、未搭乗客が搭乗ゲート110から極端に離れた位置に滞在しており、仮に未搭乗客が急いで搭乗ゲート110に向かったとしても出発時刻までに搭乗ゲート110に到着する見込みがない場合等である。搭乗係員ST3が荷下ろし操作を入力する場合、制御部140は、通信I/F136及びネットワーク4を介して、サーバ300に荷下ろし信号を送信する。荷下ろし信号は、当該未搭乗客の搭乗客データの一部(例えば手荷物ID)を含む。その場合、後で説明するように、サーバ300は、ネットワーク4を介して、作業員端末190に荷下ろし指示を送信する。その場合、後で詳しく説明するように、サーバ300は、ネットワーク4を介して、作業員端末190に荷下ろし指示を送信する。そして、作業員端末190には荷下ろし画面(図11の符号500参照)が表示される。
Further, when there is an unoccupied passenger who is considered to be unlikely to arrive at the boarding gate 110 by the departure time, the crew member ST3 operates the operation unit 134 to designate the passenger data of the unoccupied passenger, For lowering the baggage of the unboarded passenger already loaded on the planned boarding machine PD from the planned boarding machine PD (that is, causing the worker ST4 at the loading point to search for baggage and take it out of the planned boarding machine PD). An unloading operation can be input. Here, the case where the unboarded passenger is unlikely to arrive at the boarding gate 110 by the departure time means, for example, that the unboarded passenger is staying extremely far away from the boarding gate 110, This is the case where there is no possibility of arriving at the boarding gate 110 by the departure time even if the player has rushed to the boarding gate 110. When crew member ST3 inputs an unloading operation, control unit 140 transmits an unloading signal to server 300 via communication I / F 136 and network 4. The unloading signal includes a part of the passenger data (for example, baggage ID) of the non-passenger. In that case, as described later, the server 300 transmits an unloading instruction to the worker terminal 190 via the network 4. In this case, as will be described later in detail, the server 300 transmits an unloading instruction to the worker terminal 190 via the network 4. Then, an unloading screen (see reference numeral 500 in FIG. 11) is displayed on the worker terminal 190.

In addition, the memory 182 includes a storage area for storing various information obtained and generated when the control unit 180 executes various processes.
積載受付機器170の電源がオンされている間、制御部180は、RFリーダライタ部178に、通信範囲内に向けて電波を継続して出力させる。搬送装置によって搬送されてきた手荷物B1(利用者C1の手荷物)が通信範囲内に入ると、手荷物B1に取り付けられた荷物タグ50のRFタグ52が、RFリーダライタ部178から出力された電波を受信し、RFリーダライタ部178との間でRFID方式に従った無線通信が開始される。制御部180は、RFリーダライタ部178に、RFタグ52に記録されたタグ情報(即ち、手荷物画像と、手荷物IDと、搭乗券IDと、利用者データの少なくとも一部)を読み取らせる。そして、制御部180は、読み取られたタグ情報に対応する積載位置関係情報を生成する。制御部180は、既に搭乗予定機PDに積載済みの手荷物の数に基づいて、積載位置関係情報を生成する。制御部180は、生成された積載位置関係情報と、読み取られたタグ情報と、を対応付けて、通信I/F176を介してサーバ300に送信する。これにより、サーバ300のデータベース314内の利用者C1に関係する搭乗客データ(図13の符号320a参照)に、利用者C1の手荷物B1が搭乗予定機PDのエリアA12(図11参照)に搭載されたことを示す情報が追加される。さらに、制御部180は、RFリーダライタ部178に、生成された積載位置関係情報をRFタグ52に記録させる。
間 While the power of the loading reception device 170 is turned on, the control unit 180 causes the RF reader / writer unit 178 to continuously output a radio wave toward the communication range. When the baggage B1 (baggage of the user C1) carried by the carrier enters the communication range, the RF tag 52 of the baggage tag 50 attached to the baggage B1 transmits the radio wave output from the RF reader / writer 178. The wireless communication with the RF reader / writer unit 178 according to the RFID method is started. The control unit 180 causes the RF reader / writer 178 to read the tag information (that is, at least a part of the baggage image, the baggage ID, the boarding pass ID, and the user data) recorded on the RF tag 52. Then, the control unit 180 generates loading positional relationship information corresponding to the read tag information. The control unit 180 generates loading positional relationship information based on the number of pieces of baggage already loaded on the boarding aircraft PD. The control unit 180 associates the generated loading positional relationship information with the read tag information and transmits the information to the server 300 via the communication I / F 176. As a result, the baggage B1 of the user C1 is loaded on the passenger data (see 320a in FIG. 13) related to the user C1 in the database 314 of the server 300 in the area A12 of the aircraft PD (see FIG. 11). Information indicating that the operation has been performed is added. Further, the control unit 180 causes the RF reader / writer unit 178 to record the generated loading positional relationship information on the RF tag 52.
その後、手荷物B1は、搬送装置によって引き続き搬送され、搭乗予定機PDに積載される。
Thereafter, the baggage B1 is continuously transported by the transport device and loaded on the boarding aircraft PD.

図11は、利用者C1の手荷物B1を下ろすための荷下ろし指示が受信された場合に表示部192に表示される荷下ろし画面500の一例である。図11に示すように、荷下ろし画面500には、荷下ろし指示に含まれる利用者C1の氏名、搭乗便名、行き先、手荷物ID等を示す情報が表示される。さらに、荷下ろし画面500には、手荷物画像324が表示される。さらに、荷下ろし画面500には、積載位置関係情報によって示される手荷物B1の積載位置を示す情報と、当該積載位置を図示したマップ510とが表示される。マップ510は、搭乗予定機PDの荷物室を模式的に表わす地図であり、手荷物B1の積載位置に相当するエリア(図11の例ではエリアA12)が顕著表示されている。作業員ST4は、荷下ろし画面500を見ることで、手荷物B1を捜索して速やかに搭乗予定機PDから下ろすべきであることを把握することができるとともに、手荷物B1の外観、及び、手荷物B1の積載位置を把握することができる。作業員ST4は、荷下ろし画面500に表示された情報を参照しながら、手荷物B1を捜索し、搭乗予定機PDから下ろすことができる。また、作業員ST4は、手荷物B1を搭乗予定機PDから下ろした後、作業員端末190の操作部194を操作して、所定の完了操作を行う。完了操作が行われると、作業員端末190の制御部200は、所定の荷下ろし完了通知をサーバ300に送信する。
FIG. 11 is an example of the unload screen 500 displayed on the display unit 192 when an unload instruction for unloading the baggage B1 of the user C1 is received. As shown in FIG. 11, on the unloading screen 500, information indicating the name of the user C1, the boarding flight name, the destination, the baggage ID, and the like included in the unloading instruction are displayed. Further, a baggage image 324 is displayed on the unloading screen 500. Further, on the unloading screen 500, information indicating the loading position of the baggage B1 indicated by the loading position relationship information and a map 510 illustrating the loading position are displayed. The map 510 is a map schematically showing the luggage room of the boarding aircraft PD, and the area (the area A12 in the example of FIG. 11) corresponding to the loading position of the baggage B1 is prominently displayed. By looking at the unloading screen 500, the worker ST4 can find out that the baggage B1 should be searched and quickly lowered from the scheduled boarding aircraft PD, and also the appearance of the baggage B1 and the appearance of the baggage B1. The loading position can be ascertained. The worker ST4 can search for the baggage B1 while referring to the information displayed on the unloading screen 500, and can unload the baggage B1 from the boarding aircraft PD. Further, the worker ST4 performs a predetermined completion operation by operating the operation unit 194 of the worker terminal 190 after unloading the baggage B1 from the scheduled boarding machine PD. When the completion operation is performed, the control unit 200 of the worker terminal 190 transmits a predetermined unloading completion notification to the server 300.
また、本実施例では、作業員ST4は、手荷物B1を捜索する際に、例えば操作部194を操作して、所望の手荷物ID(例えば手荷物B1の手荷物ID)を指定した上で、所定の捜索操作を入力することもできる。その場合、制御部200は、RFリーダ部198に、電波を出力させ、通信範囲内に向けて、指定された手荷物IDを含む捜索信号を送信する。指定された手荷物IDが記録されているRFタグ52が捜索信号を受信すると、RFタグ52は、記録されているタグ情報(即ち、手荷物ID、搭乗券ID、利用者データの少なくとも一部、及び、積載受付機器170によって記録された積載位置関係情報)を作業員端末190に向けて送信する。即ち、RFリーダ部198とRFタグ52との間で、RFID方式に従った無線通信が実行される。これにより、制御部200は、RFリーダ部198を介して、タグ情報を取得することができる。制御部200は、取得したタグ情報に含まれる積載位置関係情報に基づいて、積載位置関係情報によって示される手荷物B1の積載位置を示す情報と、当該積載位置を図示したマップ510と、を表示することができる。即ち、本実施例では、作業員ST4は、手荷物B1を捜索する際に、RFリーダ部198とRFタグ52との間で無線通信を実行させて、RFタグ52から積載位置関係情報を取得し、取得された積載位置関係情報に基づいて荷下ろし画面500内に手荷物B1の位置を表示させることもできる。これにより、作業員端末190は、サーバ300から荷下ろし指示を受信しない場合であっても、所望の手荷物の位置を示す荷下ろし画面を表示させることができる。
Further, in this embodiment, when searching for baggage B1, the worker ST4 operates, for example, the operation unit 194 to specify a desired baggage ID (eg, baggage ID of the baggage B1) and then performs a predetermined search. You can also enter an operation. In that case, control unit 200 causes RF reader unit 198 to output radio waves and transmits a search signal including the designated baggage ID toward the communication range. When the RF tag 52 in which the designated baggage ID is recorded receives the search signal, the RF tag 52 reads the recorded tag information (ie, baggage ID, boarding pass ID, at least a part of user data, , The loading position relationship information recorded by the loading receiving device 170) is transmitted to the worker terminal 190. That is, wireless communication according to the RFID method is performed between the RF reader unit 198 and the RF tag 52. Thereby, the control unit 200 can acquire the tag information via the RF reader unit 198. The control unit 200 displays, based on the loading positional relationship information included in the acquired tag information, information indicating the loading position of the baggage B1 indicated by the loading positional relationship information, and a map 510 illustrating the loading position. be able to. That is, in the present embodiment, when searching for the baggage B1, the worker ST4 causes the RF reader unit 198 and the RF tag 52 to perform wireless communication to acquire the loading positional relationship information from the RF tag 52. Alternatively, the position of the baggage B1 can be displayed in the unloading screen 500 based on the acquired loading positional relationship information. Thereby, even when the worker terminal 190 does not receive the unloading instruction from the server 300, the worker terminal 190 can display the unloading screen indicating the position of the desired baggage.

続いて、利用者C1が搭乗ロビーBL内を移動し、搭乗ロビーBL内のロビー監視機器100のカメラ102によって撮影される毎に、制御部310は、ロビー監視機器100から、当該ロビー監視機器100の設置エリアを示すエリア情報と、その時点の時刻を表わす時刻情報と、搭乗客データの一部(例えば搭乗券ID)と、を受信する。この場合、制御部310は、データベース314内の搭乗客データ320aに、利用者C1が当該エリア(例えばエリアA2)に滞在したことを示す情報、及び、最新の滞在時刻を示す情報(例えば「9:10」)を追加する。また、制御部310は、最新の滞在時刻に対応するエリアの情報に基づいて、利用者C1の推定滞在エリア(例えば「A4~A5」)を特定する。制御部310は、特定した推定滞在エリア(例えば「A4~A5」)を示す情報を搭乗客データ320aに追加する。
Subsequently, each time the user C1 moves in the boarding lobby BL and is photographed by the camera 102 of the lobby monitoring device 100 in the boarding lobby BL, the control unit 310 sends the lobby monitoring device 100 , Area information indicating the installation area, time information indicating the time at that time, and a part of the passenger data (for example, a boarding pass ID). In this case, the control unit 310 stores, in the passenger data 320a in the database 314, information indicating that the user C1 has stayed in the area (for example, the area A2) and information indicating the latest stay time (for example, “9 : 10 ”). Further, control unit 310 specifies an estimated stay area (for example, “A4 to A5”) of user C1, based on information of an area corresponding to the latest stay time. Control unit 310 adds information indicating the specified estimated stay area (for example, “A4 to A5”) to passenger data 320a.
その後、利用者C1が搭乗予定機PDに搭乗するために搭乗ゲート110に到着すると、制御部310は、端末機器130から、エリアA6を示すエリア情報と、利用者C1が搭乗ゲート110の前に滞在している時点の時刻情報と、搭乗客データの一部(例えば搭乗券ID)と、を受信する。この場合、制御部310は、データベース314内の搭乗客データ320aに、利用者C1がエリアA6に滞在したことを示す情報、及び、最新の滞在時刻を示す情報を追加する。また、制御部310は、搭乗客データ320aに、利用者C1が搭乗済みであることを示す情報をさらに追加する。具体的には、搭乗記録に搭乗済みを示す「済」が追加される。
Thereafter, when the user C1 arrives at the boarding gate 110 to board the boarding aircraft PD, the control unit 310 sends, from the terminal device 130, the area information indicating the area A6 and the user C1 in front of the boarding gate 110. The time information at the time of stay and a part of the passenger data (for example, a boarding pass ID) are received. In this case, the control unit 310 adds information indicating that the user C1 has stayed in the area A6 and information indicating the latest stay time to the passenger data 320a in the database 314. Further, control unit 310 further adds information indicating that user C1 has already boarded, to passenger data 320a. Specifically, “Done” indicating that the boarding has been completed is added to the boarding record.
一方、搭乗受付機器10で預けられた手荷物B1は、積載地点に搬送される。積載地点に到着した手荷物B1は、搬送装置によって、搭乗予定機PDに向けて搬送される。手荷物B1が搬送される間に、手荷物B1に取り付けられた荷物タグ50のRFタグ52と、積載受付機器170のRFリーダライタ部178と、の間で、RFID方式に従った無線通信が実行される。この結果、制御部310は、積載受付機器170から、タグ情報(即ち、手荷物IDと、搭乗券IDと、利用者データの少なくとも一部)と、積載位置関係情報と、を受信する。この場合、制御部310は、データベース314内の搭乗客データ320aに、利用者C1の手荷物B1が搭乗予定機PDのエリアA12(図11参照)に搭載されたことを示す情報を追加する。
On the other hand, the baggage B1 deposited by the boarding reception device 10 is transported to the loading point. The baggage B1 arriving at the loading point is transported by the transport device to the boarding aircraft PD. While the baggage B1 is being conveyed, wireless communication according to the RFID method is executed between the RF tag 52 of the baggage tag 50 attached to the baggage B1 and the RF reader / writer unit 178 of the loading reception device 170. You. As a result, the control unit 310 receives the tag information (that is, the baggage ID, the boarding pass ID, and at least a part of the user data) and the loading positional relationship information from the loading receiving device 170. In this case, the control unit 310 adds, to the passenger data 320a in the database 314, information indicating that the baggage B1 of the user C1 is loaded in the area A12 (see FIG. 11) of the scheduled boarding machine PD.
また、利用者C1が、出発時刻が近くなっても搭乗ゲート110に到着しない場合には、制御部310は、端末機器130から、利用者C1(即ち未搭乗客)を呼び出すための呼出信号を受信することができる。制御部310は、呼出信号を受信すると、データベース314を参照し、呼出信号に含まれる利用者C1の搭乗客データの一部(例えば搭乗券ID)に対応する搭乗客データ230aを特定する。そして、制御部310は、搭乗客データ230aの一部(具体的には、氏名、搭乗便名及び行き先、席種、席番、出発時刻、搭乗ゲート、推定滞在エリア、利用者画像322)を含む呼出指示を生成し、係員端末150に送信する。この際、制御部310は、呼出対象の未搭乗客の推定滞在エリアの近傍に配置されている係員端末150を送信先として指定した上で、呼出指示を送信するようにしてもよい。この結果、呼出指示を受信した係員端末150の表示部152には、利用者C1を呼び出すための呼出画面400(図8参照)が表示される。
When the user C1 does not arrive at the boarding gate 110 even when the departure time is near, the control unit 310 transmits a call signal for calling the user C1 (that is, a non-passenger) from the terminal device 130. Can be received. When receiving the call signal, control unit 310 refers to database 314 and specifies passenger data 230a corresponding to a part of the passenger data (for example, boarding pass ID) of user C1 included in the call signal. The control unit 310 then stores a part of the passenger data 230a (specifically, name, boarding flight name and destination, seat type, seat number, departure time, boarding gate, estimated stay area, user image 322). A call instruction including the call instruction is generated and transmitted to the attendant terminal 150. At this time, the control unit 310 may specify the clerk terminal 150 located near the estimated stay area of the non-passenger to be called as a transmission destination, and then transmit the call instruction. As a result, a call screen 400 (see FIG. 8) for calling the user C1 is displayed on the display unit 152 of the attendant terminal 150 that has received the call instruction.
また、利用者C1が、出発時刻までに搭乗ゲート110に到着する見込みがないと考えられる場合には、制御部310は、端末機器130から、利用者C1の手荷物B1を搭乗予定機PDから下ろすための荷下ろし信号を受信することができる。制御部310は、荷下ろし信号を受信すると、荷下ろし信号に含まれる利用者C1の搭乗客データの一部(例えば手荷物ID)に対応する搭乗客データ230aを特定する。そして、制御部310は、搭乗客データ230aの一部(具体的には、氏名、搭乗便名及び行き先、手荷物ID、手荷物画像324、積載位置関係情報)を含む荷下ろし指示を生成し、係員端末150に送信する。この結果、荷下ろし指示を受信した作業員端末190の表示部192には、手荷物B1を下ろすための荷下ろし画面500(図11参照)が表示される。
When it is considered that the user C1 is unlikely to arrive at the boarding gate 110 by the departure time, the control unit 310 removes the baggage B1 of the user C1 from the terminal PD from the terminal device 130. Can be received. When receiving the unloading signal, the control unit 310 specifies the passenger data 230a corresponding to a part of the passenger data (eg, baggage ID) of the user C1 included in the unloading signal. Then, the control unit 310 generates an unloading instruction including a part of the passenger data 230a (specifically, name, boarding flight name and destination, baggage ID, baggage image 324, and loading positional relationship information). Transmit to terminal 150. As a result, an unloading screen 500 (see FIG. 11) for unloading the baggage B1 is displayed on the display unit 192 of the worker terminal 190 that has received the unloading instruction.

The display unit 222 is a display for displaying various information. The operation unit 224 includes a plurality of keys. A worker (not shown) performing the unloading operation can input various instructions to the unloading management device 220 by operating the operation unit 224. Further, in the present embodiment, the display unit 222 is configured as a touch panel, and also functions as an operation unit. Communication I / F 226 is connected to network 4.
RFリーダ部228は、荷物タグ50のRFタグ52との間でRFID方式に従った無線通信を実行可能な装置である。RFリーダ部228は、通信範囲内に存在するRFタグ52との間で無線通信を実行することにより、RFタグ52に記録されたタグ情報(即ち、手荷物画像、手荷物ID、搭乗券ID、利用者データの少なくとも一部等)を読み取ることができる。本実施例では、RFリーダ部228は、RFタグ52に情報を記録するライタとしての機能を備えないが、変形例では、RFリーダ部228もライタとしての機能を備えていてもよい。
The RF reader unit 228 is a device capable of executing wireless communication with the RF tag 52 of the luggage tag 50 according to the RFID method. The RF reader unit 228 performs wireless communication with the RF tag 52 existing within the communication range to thereby obtain tag information (that is, baggage image, baggage ID, boarding pass ID, usage information) recorded on the RF tag 52. At least a part of the user data). In the present embodiment, the RF reader unit 228 does not have a function as a writer that records information on the RF tag 52, but in a modified example, the RF reader unit 228 may also have a function as a writer.
制御部230は、メモリ232に記憶されているプログラムに従って様々な処理を実行する。メモリ232は、RAM、ROM等によって構成されており、制御部230が様々な処理を実行するためのプログラムを記憶している。また、メモリ232は、制御部230が様々な処理を実行する際に取得及び生成する各種情報を記憶するための記憶領域を備えている。

(第2実施例)
第2実施例の空港管理システム2について、上記の第1実施例と異なる点を中心に説明する。第2実施例の空港管理システム2も、その構成は基本的には第1実施例と共通する。上記の第1実施例では、搭乗受付機器10の第1カメラ20、セキュリティゲート60のカメラ62、搭乗ゲート110のカメラ112等は、利用者C1の顔を含む範囲を撮影して、利用者C1の顔を中心とする画像である利用者画像を取得する。これに対し、本実施例では、搭乗受付機器10の第1カメラ20、セキュリティゲート60のカメラ62、搭乗ゲート110のカメラ112等は、利用者C1の顔に限られず、利用者C1の容姿全体(即ち、体全体)を撮影して、利用者C1の容姿を表す画像である利用者画像を取得する。即ち、本実施例では、利用者画像は、利用者C1の顔のみならず、利用者C1の体型、髪型、服装、体格等を表す画像である。 (Second embodiment)
Theairport management system 2 of the second embodiment will be described focusing on the differences from the first embodiment. The configuration of the airport management system 2 of the second embodiment is basically the same as that of the first embodiment. In the first embodiment described above, the first camera 20 of the boarding reception device 10, the camera 62 of the security gate 60, the camera 112 of the boarding gate 110, and the like photograph an area including the face of the user C1, and A user image which is an image centered on the face of the user is acquired. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the first camera 20 of the boarding reception device 10, the camera 62 of the security gate 60, the camera 112 of the boarding gate 110, and the like are not limited to the face of the user C1, but the entire appearance of the user C1. (Ie, the entire body) is photographed, and a user image which is an image representing the appearance of the user C1 is obtained. That is, in this embodiment, the user image is an image representing not only the face of the user C1 but also the body shape, hairstyle, clothes, physique, and the like of the user C1.
第2実施例の空港管理システム2について、上記の第1実施例と異なる点を中心に説明する。第2実施例の空港管理システム2も、その構成は基本的には第1実施例と共通する。上記の第1実施例では、搭乗受付機器10の第1カメラ20、セキュリティゲート60のカメラ62、搭乗ゲート110のカメラ112等は、利用者C1の顔を含む範囲を撮影して、利用者C1の顔を中心とする画像である利用者画像を取得する。これに対し、本実施例では、搭乗受付機器10の第1カメラ20、セキュリティゲート60のカメラ62、搭乗ゲート110のカメラ112等は、利用者C1の顔に限られず、利用者C1の容姿全体(即ち、体全体)を撮影して、利用者C1の容姿を表す画像である利用者画像を取得する。即ち、本実施例では、利用者画像は、利用者C1の顔のみならず、利用者C1の体型、髪型、服装、体格等を表す画像である。 (Second embodiment)
The
そのため、本実施例では、端末機器80の制御部90は、セキュリティゲート60から取得した利用者画像と、搭乗客データに含まれる利用者画像とを比較する際、両画像の利用者の容姿全体の特徴点同士を比較する。端末機器130の制御部140が、搭乗ゲート110から取得した利用者画像と、搭乗客データに含まれる利用者画像とを比較する際も同様である。
Therefore, in the present embodiment, when comparing the user image acquired from the security gate 60 with the user image included in the passenger data, the control unit 90 of the terminal device 80 determines the overall appearance of the user of both images. Are compared with each other. The same applies when the control unit 140 of the terminal device 130 compares the user image acquired from the boarding gate 110 with the user image included in the passenger data.
また、ロビー監視機器100の制御部106は、カメラ102が撮影する画像内に利用者の画像が含まれる場合に、当該利用者の画像から容姿の特徴点を抽出する。同時に、制御部106は、サーバ300のデータベース314にアクセスし、抽出された特徴点と共通する特徴点を有する利用者画像を含む搭乗客データを特定する。
(4) When the image captured by the camera 102 includes a user image, the control unit 106 of the lobby monitoring device 100 extracts a feature point of the appearance from the image of the user. At the same time, the control unit 106 accesses the database 314 of the server 300 and specifies the passenger data including the user image having the feature points common to the extracted feature points.
以上、本実施例について説明した。上記の通り、本実施例では、利用者画像は利用者C1の容姿(体型、髪型、服装、体格等)を表す画像である。本実施例では、顔のみならず、体型、髪型、服装、体格等の様々な要素に基づいて、利用者C1を特定することができる。
The present embodiment has been described above. As described above, in the present embodiment, the user image is an image representing the appearance (body shape, hairstyle, clothes, physique, etc.) of the user C1. In the present embodiment, the user C1 can be specified based on not only the face but also various factors such as a body shape, a hairstyle, clothes, and a physique.
(第3実施例)
第3実施例の空港管理システム2について、上記の第1実施例と異なる点を中心に説明する。第3実施例の空港管理システム2も、その構成は基本的には第1実施例と共通する。上記の通り、第1実施例では、搭乗受付機器10のスキャン部22は、パスポートをスキャンし、スキャン画像を取得する。そして制御部40は、パスポートのスキャン画像から利用者C1の写真画像を抽出するとともに、氏名やパスポート番号等の文字情報を抽出する。 (Third embodiment)
Theairport management system 2 of the third embodiment will be described focusing on the differences from the first embodiment. The configuration of the airport management system 2 of the third embodiment is basically the same as that of the first embodiment. As described above, in the first embodiment, the scanning unit 22 of the boarding reception device 10 scans the passport and acquires a scanned image. Then, the control unit 40 extracts a photograph image of the user C1 from the scan image of the passport, and also extracts character information such as a name and a passport number.
第3実施例の空港管理システム2について、上記の第1実施例と異なる点を中心に説明する。第3実施例の空港管理システム2も、その構成は基本的には第1実施例と共通する。上記の通り、第1実施例では、搭乗受付機器10のスキャン部22は、パスポートをスキャンし、スキャン画像を取得する。そして制御部40は、パスポートのスキャン画像から利用者C1の写真画像を抽出するとともに、氏名やパスポート番号等の文字情報を抽出する。 (Third embodiment)
The
これに加え、本実施例では、パスポートに、利用者C1の顔の特徴点を表す特徴点データが記録された情報コード(具体的には二次元コード)が表示されている点が第1実施例とは異なる。本実施例でも、搭乗受付機器10のスキャン部22は、パスポートをスキャンし、パスポートのスキャン画像を取得する。そして、制御部40は、パスポートのスキャン画像から利用者C1の写真画像を抽出するとともに、氏名やパスポート番号等の文字情報を抽出する。さらに、制御部40は、パスポートのスキャン画像に含まれる情報コードの画像に基づいて情報コードをデコードし、情報コードに記録された特徴点データを取得する。制御部40がサーバ300に送信する利用者関係情報には、特徴点データも含まれる。サーバ300のデータベース314には、特徴点データを含む利用者関係情報が記憶される。
In addition, in the present embodiment, the first embodiment is characterized in that the passport displays an information code (specifically, a two-dimensional code) in which feature point data representing the feature point of the face of the user C1 is recorded. Different from the example. Also in the present embodiment, the scanning unit 22 of the boarding reception device 10 scans the passport and acquires a scanned image of the passport. Then, the control unit 40 extracts a photograph image of the user C1 from the scan image of the passport, and also extracts character information such as a name and a passport number. Further, the control unit 40 decodes the information code based on the image of the information code included in the scan image of the passport, and acquires feature point data recorded in the information code. The user-related information transmitted by the control unit 40 to the server 300 also includes feature point data. User relation information including feature point data is stored in the database 314 of the server 300.
さらに、本実施例では、ロビー監視機器100の制御部106は、カメラ102が撮影する画像内に利用者の画像が含まれる場合に、当該利用者の画像から容姿の特徴点を抽出する。同時に、制御部106は、サーバ300のデータベース314にアクセスし、抽出された特徴点と共通する特徴点を表す特徴点データを特定することにより、カメラ102が撮影する画像内に存在する利用者と同一の人物の搭乗客データを特定する。この場合、制御部106は、自機の設置エリアを示すエリア情報と、この時点の時刻を表す時刻情報と、特定された搭乗客データの一部と、を対応付けて、通信I/F104及びネットワーク4を介してサーバ300に送信する。これにより、サーバ300のデータベース314内の当該利用者に関係する搭乗客データに、当該利用者が設置エリア内に滞在したことを示す情報、及び、最新の滞在時刻を示す情報が追加される。
Further, in the present embodiment, when an image of the user is included in the image captured by the camera 102, the control unit 106 of the lobby monitoring device 100 extracts a feature point of the appearance from the image of the user. At the same time, the control unit 106 accesses the database 314 of the server 300 and specifies feature point data representing a feature point common to the extracted feature point, thereby identifying the user existing in the image captured by the camera 102. Identify the passenger data of the same person. In this case, the control unit 106 associates the area information indicating the installation area of the own device, the time information indicating the time at this time, and a part of the specified passenger data with the communication I / F 104 and The data is transmitted to the server 300 via the network 4. Thereby, information indicating that the user has stayed in the installation area and information indicating the latest stay time are added to the passenger data related to the user in the database 314 of the server 300.
このように、本実施例では、利用者関係情報は特徴点データを含んでいる。一般的に言って、特徴点データは利用者の顔を撮影した顔画像そのものよりもデータ量が小さい。そのため、利用者関係情報を記憶するサーバ300の処理負荷が小さく済む。また、ロビー監視機器100が、カメラ102が撮影する画像に、特徴点データが表す利用者C1と同一人物の画像である特定画像が含まれるか否かの判定を行う場合にも、利用者の顔に基づいて事前に抽出された特徴点を表す特徴点データを利用して行えば、事前に撮影された利用者C1の顔画像と、カメラ102が撮影した画像と、を比較して行う場合に比べて、ロビー監視機器100の処理負荷も少なく済む。また、カメラ102の撮影画像中に利用者C1が含まれるか否かの判定結果もより早く得ることができる。このように、本実施例では、特徴点データを利用することで、各機器の処理負荷を小さくすることができる。更に、個人情報保護の観点からも、個人情報は本人が所持管理するほうが望ましい。本実施例におけるパスポートが「記録媒体」の一例である。
As described above, in this embodiment, the user relation information includes the feature point data. Generally speaking, the feature point data has a smaller data amount than the face image itself of the face of the user. Therefore, the processing load on the server 300 that stores the user-related information can be reduced. Also, when the lobby monitoring device 100 determines whether or not the image captured by the camera 102 includes a specific image that is the same person image as the user C1 represented by the feature point data, If the feature point data representing feature points extracted in advance based on the face is used, a comparison is made between a face image of the user C1 captured in advance and an image captured by the camera 102. The processing load on the lobby monitoring device 100 can be reduced as compared with the case of the first embodiment. Further, the determination result as to whether or not the user C1 is included in the image captured by the camera 102 can be obtained earlier. As described above, in the present embodiment, the processing load on each device can be reduced by using the feature point data. Further, from the viewpoint of protection of personal information, it is desirable that the personal information be owned and managed by the person. The passport in this embodiment is an example of a “recording medium”.
