The present invention relates to a technique for recording a user's action.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, many portable information communication devices have been commercialized. In particular, recently, the communication function has been strengthened and the weight and size have been reduced, and the demand (market) of consumers tends to greatly expand. For example, the number of mobile phone and pager subscribers has increased significantly.

[0003] In the portable information communication device, a search for a use other than the use which has been used so far, such as a portable telephone, is being made. Devices (assistants) focused on assisting people (users) as candidates that emerged as a result
There is a use called. As more specific contents of human assistance, humans often forget things, so it is considered to record human actions and assist memory. At present, research is proceeding in that direction, and a method of manufacturing a prototype (portable behavior recorder) and assisting memory through the prototype is being explored.

[0004] As the prototype, for example, as a user's action in a research institute, the person the user met, the room where the user met, the telephone number, the exchange of e-mails and documents were recorded one by one as data, and the recorded data was recorded by the user. Has been produced that can be searched and displayed.

However, the method of recording user's actions one by one has a problem that the amount of information to be recorded is enormous, which leads to an increase in cost, size, and weight of the apparatus.
The problem is serious given that the user always carries it.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a portable action recording device for efficiently assisting a person (user) while suppressing the amount of information to be recorded.

[0007]

The portable behavior recording apparatus according to the first aspect of the present invention is based on the premise that the behavior of a user who carries the portable behavior recording apparatus is recorded. Environmental data detecting means for detecting at least one as environmental data; comparing the environmental data detected by the environmental data detecting means with the environmental data detected in the past by the environmental data detecting means; And control means for recording the environmental data at the present time as the data of the action record when the changed data exists.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in addition to the configuration of the first aspect, the portable action recording device according to the first aspect further includes a device for capturing at least one of an image and a voice as peripheral data representing a situation around the user. And a control unit,
When there is data that has changed by a predetermined value or more in the environmental data, the capturing means captures at least one of an image and a sound, and the surrounding data and the environmental data captured by the capturing means are recorded in the action record. Record as data.

[0009] In the configuration of the first or second aspect, it is desirable that the control means transmits and stores the data of the action record to an external device connected via predetermined communication means.

A portable action recording device according to a third aspect of the present invention has at least one of a playback device for playing back peripheral data and a display device for displaying environmental data, in addition to the configuration of the first or second embodiment. On the other hand, input means for inputting a search condition of the data of the action record, and data of the action record are searched according to the search condition input by the input means, and data corresponding to the search condition is reproduced by the reproduction means. Alternatively, the information processing apparatus further comprises a search means for displaying the information on the display means.

According to the present invention, a decision is made as to whether or not the user's action should be recorded based on the change in each piece of data constituting the environment data. If the change is large, the user's action is recorded.

A large change in data usually means that the environment (situation) in which the user is placed has changed greatly. When the environment is changing significantly, the user receives more information from the environment than when it is not. The more information you have, the more opportunities to remind it. From these facts, the above-mentioned selection selects and records information effective for reminding the user of the memory. In other words, the amount of data to be recorded at least has a large effect, and can greatly contribute to human assistance.

When the recorded data is stored in another device, the memory capacity required for storing the data is reduced, and the cost, the size of the device, and the increase in weight can be suppressed. . It is possible to easily apply a device such as a server or a host to the other devices. When data including data stored in another device can be viewed, the device can be provided to the user as a more convenient device.

The analog audio signal output from the microphone 203 is digitized by the A / D converter 313 and then output to the microphone control unit 314. Microphone control unit 3
14 takes in digital audio data output from the A / D converter 313 at a specific sampling cycle in accordance with an instruction from the CPU 302. The captured audio data is compressed by, for example, the ADPCM method, and
Output to

The speaker control unit 316 connected to the bus 301 receives audio data from, for example, the CPU 302 and outputs the audio data to the D / A converter 315. The D / A converter 315 converts the audio data into an analog audio signal and outputs it to the speaker 207. Speaker 207 outputs the analog audio signal as an audio output.

The IC card interface 317, communication control unit 318, and general-purpose interface 319 connected to the bus 301 are connected. By connecting the IC card 323 to the IC card interface 317, the IC card 323 can be used as an auxiliary storage device.

The communication control unit 318 is a control unit for performing communication, and is connected to the wired transceiver 320 and the wireless transceivers 321 and 322. The wired transceiver 320 is, for example, a MODEM, and transmits and receives data by connecting to the terminal 106 on the network in FIG. 1 or another network (for example, a telephone network) connected to, for example, the line 104. Wireless transceiver 3
Reference numeral 21 optically links the optical link unit 107 to transmit and receive data. The wireless transceiver 322 transmits and receives data via the antenna base station 105. These transceivers 320 to 322 and communication control unit 31
8 allows the mobile terminal 108 to communicate with devices connected to the network.

Communication via each of the transceivers 320 to 322 is performed by composing data to be communicated into frames. FIG. 4 is a configuration diagram of the frame. As shown in FIG. 4, the frame includes a header section and a data section. The data section stores data to be transmitted to the destination (transmission) destination, and the header section stores the address of the transmission destination (transmission destination) and the address of the transmission source (terminal) to which the data stored in the data section is transmitted. , A request content (command) for the destination, and the like are stored.

The general-purpose interface 319 exchanges data with a device mounted on the general-purpose interface connector 204 shown in FIG. When the GPS 209 is connected to the connector 204, data (parameters) indicating the environment such as the temperature, the atmospheric pressure, and the location are transmitted from the GPS 209 to the CPU 302 via the general-purpose interface 319.
For the date and time, for example, the CPU 302 obtains it from a real-time clock provided for itself.

The program executed by the CPU 302 may be obtained from another device via a network, for example, or may be obtained from a storage medium such as an IC card 323 detachably mounted on the terminal 108. good. Alternatively, it may be obtained from a storage medium such as a ROM or a RAM of the memory 303.

The operation of the above configuration will be described. When the power of the terminal 108 is turned on, the CPU 302 reads out a program stored in the ROM of the memory 303 and starts the control by executing the program. After that, in accordance with an operation performed on the touch panel 308 by the user, control for realizing a process desired by the user is performed. Under the control, switching of information to be displayed on the LCD 304, capturing of an image using the camera 202, capturing of sound picked up by the microphone 203, and sound output by the speaker 207 are performed. Further, communication with a device connected to the network is performed.

On the other hand, the CPU 302 records the behavior of the user. The recording of the action is performed, for example, when a change in the environment such as the user moving from place to place is detected.
In the present embodiment, the date and time (month and date and time), location,
The temperature and the atmospheric pressure are adopted as data representing the environment (environmental data), and the behavior of the user is recorded when any one of the environment data greatly changes. As described above, the CPU 302 obtains the date and time from the real-time clock, and obtains environmental data excluding the date and time from the GPS 204 attached to the general-purpose interface connector 204.

When recording an action, images and sounds are captured for a predetermined period of time as peripheral data representing the state of the surroundings of the user so that the user can easily remember the situation at that time, and the peripheral data is stored in the environment. Store as a record along with the data. FIG. 5 is a configuration diagram of the record. It should be noted that, since the data amount of the image and the sound is large, unlike the data of other items, the file name in which the data is stored is stored in the record.
The record (data) is stored in the RAM of the memory 303, the IC card 323, or the like.

When the location, the temperature, and the like change significantly, it can be considered that the environment of the user (the holder of the mobile terminal 108) has changed significantly. When such an environment changes significantly (hereinafter referred to as an action change point), a person is often more nervous than usual. In a nervous state, they take in more information from around than when they are not. For this reason, when the environment at the action change point is displayed, it is possible to efficiently evoke the storage. Furthermore, when the surrounding video and audio are played,
Recall can be made more efficiently. As described above, by selecting and recording an action at a time when there is a high possibility that the memory of the person can be recalled, even a small amount of data can greatly contribute to assisting the person.

Further, in the present embodiment, the recorded data is transferred to and stored in the mobile terminal control PC 101 connected to the network. For this reason, the capacity required for storing the recorded data can be reduced, and the increase in cost, size, and weight can be suppressed. For anyone other than that user,
The location can be grasped without a contact from the user. Of course, it can also be used as basic data for various other data analysis.

The data recorded as described above can be searched by the mobile terminal 108. When the user inputs a search condition on the touch panel 308, the CPU 302
Acquires the record corresponding to the search condition from the RAM, the IC card 323, and the mobile terminal control PC 101, and displays the record on the LCD 304.

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a display example of the action record searched as described above. This display example is a case where the date (1997/10/07) is input as a search condition.

In this embodiment, the user can select whether or not to record an image or a sound at the action change point, that is, whether or not to record the image and the sound as a memo. In the image and audio columns (items), “present” indicates that the data has been recorded, and “absent” indicates that the data has not been recorded. Image and sound are on the touch panel 3
A record can be reproduced by designating a record by 08 and instructing reproduction of the record. Not only one search condition but also a plurality of search conditions can be input.

FIG. 6 shows five records corresponding to the search condition in a table format. The behavior of the user at each time on this day is, for example, as follows.
The user is inside the company at 8:38, then goes out and records the image and sound of the destination at 10:38 with a memo (recording due to temperature change), and returns to the office at about 12:38. (Recorded by changes in temperature). After returning to the company once, go to the customer, record the image and sound as a memo at 13:30 at the customer (recording due to change of location), and return at around 17:30 (recording due to change of location) .

As described above, the data recorded on the mobile terminal 108 can be viewed. Thereby, the user can view the recorded data to recall the memory whenever and where necessary, so that the mobile terminal 108 can be provided to the user as a very convenient device.

Next, the operation of the mobile terminal 108 will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 7 and FIG. FIG. 7 is a flowchart of the entire process of the mobile terminal 108. First, the overall processing will be described in detail with reference to FIG. This overall processing is realized by the CPU 302 reading and executing a program stored in a storage medium, for example, a ROM or a RAM of the memory 303, after the power of the terminal 108 is turned on. Here, in order to facilitate understanding of the present invention, parts particularly related to the present invention are extracted and shown.

First, in step 701, it is determined whether a key input has been performed. When the user touches the touch panel 308
If any operation is performed on, the determination is YES
And the process proceeds to step 702. Otherwise, the determination is no and the process moves to step 706.

In step 702, the contents designated by the key input are analyzed, and it is determined whether or not the contents are for mode designation. If the user has made a key input to specify the mode, the determination is YES and step 70
Move to 3. Otherwise, the determination is no and the process moves to step 704. In step 703, the mode specified by the user, for example, the image / sound capture mode is set, and then the process returns to step 701.

In the other step 704, it is determined whether or not the key input is for reading or retrieving data on which the action is recorded. If the user inputs a search condition or the like on the touch panel 308, the determination is YES and the process moves to step 705. Otherwise, the determination is no and the process returns to step 701. Step 705
Then, a frame in which an action read command for requesting the other party to search for a record corresponding to the search condition is created in the data portion and the header portion is created and transmitted, respectively. In the present embodiment, the mobile terminal control PC 101 stores the data on which the action has been recorded, so that the created frame is transmitted to the mobile terminal control PC 101 as the destination. After that, step 701
Return to

When the action read command and the frame storing the search condition are transmitted to the mobile terminal control PC 101, the mobile terminal control PC 101 extracts a record corresponding to the search condition and sends it to the mobile terminal 108, as described later. Send to As described above, the mobile terminal control PC 101 is used as a storage device, and the mobile terminal control PC
By acquiring the data from No. 1, the memory capacity required for the mobile terminal 108 can be reduced, and the cost, size, and weight can be suppressed.

If the user has not performed a key input, the determination in step 701 is NO, and the flow shifts to step 706. In step 706, the presence or absence of the received data is determined. For example, when the mobile terminal control PC 101 transmits data to the mobile terminal 108, it is determined that there is received data, and the process proceeds to step 707.

In step 707, the received data is
A process of displaying the data on the CD 304 and correcting / editing the data displayed on the LCD 304 in accordance with a user operation on the touch panel 308 is performed. This step 707
Is executed, an action record as shown in FIG. 6 is displayed. In a succeeding step 708, it is determined whether or not the correction / edit has been performed. If the user has not modified or edited the displayed data, the process returns to step 701. Otherwise, step 709
Move to

The display of data on the LCD 304 is as follows.
For example, the CPU 302 may use the transceivers 320 to 322
The data received via the communication control unit 318 is developed into a bitmap pattern and
And the LCD control unit 307 is instructed to display the stored data. Correction of the displayed data (for example, input of a more accurate time) or the like is performed based on the information on the position of the user's finger received from the touch panel control unit 309, and the contents of the user's instruction are analyzed. It is realized by changing the data stored in.

In step 709, an action record command requesting the destination (here, the mobile terminal control PC 101) to store the data reflecting the correction / edit in the data section and storing the data as action record data in the header. Create frames stored in each section. Next step 7
In step 10, the created frame is transmitted to the other party, and the transmitted data is deleted when unnecessary. After that, the process returns to step 701.

On the other hand, since the mobile terminal control PC 101 stores the data, the created frame is transmitted to the mobile terminal control PC 101 as the destination. After that, the process returns to step 701.

The user has not entered any key, and
If data has not been sent from the mobile terminal control PC 101, the determination in step 706 is NO, and the process moves to step 711. In step 711, it is determined whether or not the amount of data (the number of records) stored in the RAM or the like of the memory 303 as the action record is equal to or more than a certain amount. If there is no action record data exceeding the certain amount, step 7
Return to 01. Otherwise, the process proceeds to step 709. In step 709, a frame in which the stored data is stored in the data section is created, and step 7 is executed.
In step 10, the created frame is transmitted. When the action record data stored for a certain amount or more is transmitted, the data is deleted after the transmission is completed. As a result, a reduction in the memory capacity required for the mobile terminal 108 is realized.

The frame is transmitted by the CPU 302.
Sends the frame to the communication control unit 318,
18 outputs the frame to the network via any of the transceivers 320-322.

As described above, in this embodiment, when the amount of data stored as an action record exceeds a certain amount, it is sent to the mobile terminal control PC 101 (host computer). This is to reduce communication costs and reduce the load on data transmission.

FIG. 8 is a flowchart of the timer interrupt process of the mobile terminal 108. This processing is performed by the CPU
A process 302 is performed by reading and executing a corresponding program stored in the ROM of the memory 303 in response to, for example, occurrence of an interrupt due to a timer function provided therein. The interruption by the timer function is set, for example, to occur at intervals of several minutes to several tens minutes. The interruption interval may be arbitrarily set by the user in consideration of his / her own behavior pattern.

First, at step 801, data is fetched. In this step 801, the CPU 30
2 is a GPS 20 via a general-purpose interface 319
From 9, data of location, temperature, and atmospheric pressure, and date and time data from its own real-time clock are taken. Next Step 8
In step 02, the current environment data captured in step 801 is stored. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step 803.

In step 803, the current environmental data is compared with the previously captured environmental data. In the following step 804, it is determined whether or not any of the environmental data has a difference equal to or more than a certain value. If there is a difference between these environmental data, that is, between the data of the place, the temperature, the atmospheric pressure, and the date and time, which is greater than or equal to a predetermined value for each data, the determination is YES and step 805 is performed.
Move to Otherwise, the determination is NO and the series of processing ends.

In steps 805 to 811, it is assumed that a user's action change point has been detected, and recording of environmental data and peripheral data of images and sounds at that time, that is, action recording is performed.

First, in step 805, it is determined whether or not the image / audio capture mode is set. If the user has set the image or audio capture mode, the determination is no and the process moves to step 809. Otherwise, the determination is yes and the process moves to step 806.

In steps 806 to 808, since the capture mode is set and the image and the voice can be captured, the capture of the image and the voice according to the judgment of the user at that time is performed.

First, at step 806, the user is informed that the mode has been shifted to the capture mode for capturing images and sounds in response to the detection of the action change point. This is reported using, for example, the speaker 207 and the LCD 304. After that, the process moves to step 807.

The notification by the LCD 304 is made by the CPU.
302 is realized by storing data indicating this in the memory 306 and instructing the LCD control unit 307 to display the data. The notification by the speaker 207 is C
This is realized by the PU 302 acquiring audio data indicating the fact from, for example, the ROM of the memory 303 and outputting the audio data to the speaker control unit 316.

In step 807, the apparatus waits for a predetermined time for the user to perform an operation for instructing the capture of an image and a sound. The reason that the user performs the operation is that the mobile terminal 108 does not know what state (it may be stored in a bag) when the behavior change point is detected. This is to allow the user to capture surrounding images and sounds as notes. If the operation has not been performed for a certain period of time, it is determined that there is no need for the user to capture images and sounds, and the process proceeds to step 809. If not, step 80
Move to 8. In step 808, a process of capturing images and sounds as peripheral data and storing the peripheral data is performed by an operation performed by the user. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step 809.

In step 809, a record including the data stored in steps 802 and 808 and the change point recording command is created. In the following step 810, the created record is stored in the mobile terminal control PC 101.
And store it as data to be transmitted. Then, in step 811, the previous environmental data is
Replace with environmental data. Next, when this interrupt processing is executed, a behavior change point is detected from the environmental data and the environmental data captured at that time. After the replacement of the environment data ends, a series of processing ends.

[0061] In this manner, the action recording in the mobile terminal 108 is performed. Next, with reference to FIG. 9, the operation of the mobile terminal control PC 101 (host) side to which the data of the action record is transmitted from the mobile terminal 108 will be described in detail.

FIG. 9 shows only parts related to the present invention (mobile terminal 108) in order to facilitate understanding of the present invention. The processing shown in FIG. 9 is executed when the CPU provided in the mobile terminal control PC 101
This processing is performed by reading and executing a program stored in a storage medium connected to or mounted on the C101, for example, a hard disk.

First, in step 901, the mobile terminal 10
Wait for the data from 8 to be received. When the mobile terminal 108 has transmitted data to the mobile terminal control PC 101, the process proceeds to step 902.

In step 902, the command stored in the header of the frame is analyzed. In a succeeding step 903, it is determined whether or not the command is an action recording command. If the mobile terminal 108 has requested storage of the data stored in the data portion of the frame, the determination is YES and the process moves to step 904. Otherwise, the process proceeds to step 905.

In step 904, the mobile terminal 108 that has transmitted the data is specified from the address of the transmission source stored in the header section, and the data is stored in a hard disk or the like for each mobile terminal. If the user has modified the data, the data is replaced with the data before the modification. After that, the process returns to step 901.

In step 905, it is determined whether or not the command stored in the header is an action read command. If the mobile terminal 108 has requested transmission of data (record) corresponding to the search condition stored in the data portion of the frame, the determination is YES and the process moves to step 906. Otherwise, the determination is no and the process moves to step 907.

In step 906, the mobile terminal 108 that has transmitted the data is specified from the source address stored in the header section, and the action record data (record) that satisfies the search condition is transmitted to the mobile terminal 108. . Thereafter, the process returns to step 901. In the other step 907, other requests of the mobile terminal 108, the personal PC 1
Other processing for responding to a request or the like from 02 or the like is performed, and thereafter, the process returns to step 901.

As described above, when the mobile terminal control PC 101 operates, the data recorded by the mobile terminal 108 can be stored in the mobile terminal control PC 101 at any time, and the stored data is searched on the mobile terminal 108. Thus, it can be displayed and reproduced at any time.

In this embodiment, both the image and the sound can be captured. However, only one of them may be selected and captured. In addition, the user may be able to attach a comment of text information to data (record) recorded at the action change point. Regarding the detection of an action change point, the user considers his / her own action pattern and determines a criterion (for example, a criterion for determining whether or not the temperature change is more than how many times the temperature is changed to an action change point), data, etc. It may be settable. As the environmental data for determining the action change point, in addition to the above-described data, or alternatively, brightness, humidity, surrounding volume, and the like may be adopted.

In this embodiment, the action change point is detected by comparing the current and previous environmental data. However, the action change point is referred to by referring to more environmental data detected in the past. May be detected. As a result, a relatively gradual and continuous change can be detected, and a more realistic action record can be recorded.

In transmitting the recorded data,
In the present embodiment, the data is transmitted collectively after being collected to a certain degree or more, but according to the situation where the mobile terminal is placed, for example, when the communication system of the company can be used, the recorded data is transmitted one by one. You may do it.

In the present embodiment, the present invention is applied to a mobile terminal device (portable information communication device).
For example, for a person who always carries a notebook personal computer, it is also possible to install a program for realizing the functions of the present invention and have the computer keep a record of actions. .
