no. 1 Embodiment approach
[0096] figure 1 The configuration of the system 5 according to the first embodiment of the present invention is shown. This system 5 is configured such that a network 2 such as a LAN (Local Area Network) installed in the office Ra connects a plurality of user terminals 10, image forming apparatuses 20, and information collection terminals 50 as layout supporting apparatuses, and functions as access to the office Ra. A plurality of safety gates 40 of a room management function are connected to an information collection terminal 50 .
[0097] In the present embodiment, the image forming apparatus 20 is a multifunction peripheral (MFP) having a copy function, a scan function, a printer function, a facsimile function, a post-processing function, and the like.
[0098] figure 2 A schematic configuration of the user terminal 10 is shown. The user terminal 10 has a function of sending a scan job, a print job, or the like to the image forming apparatus 20 and requesting execution ...
no. 2 Embodiment approach
[0225] In the second embodiment, a case will be described in which, for a user having a plurality of travel routes, an image forming apparatus 20 recommending an arrangement in consideration of the frequency of use of each travel route is proposed.
[0226] Figure 20 An example of a layout diagram showing recommended installation locations obtained in consideration of the frequency of use of each travel route is shown. For example, assuming that among user A and user B belonging to office Ra described in the first embodiment, for user A, the frequency of passing through the security gate 40a is higher than that of the security gate 40b, so that the frequency of use of the movement route P1 is higher than that of the movement route P2 , for the user B, the frequency of passing through the security gate 40c is higher than that of the security gate 40d, so the use frequency of the movement path P3 is higher than that of the movement path P4.
[0227] The information collection ...
no. 3 Embodiment approach
[0242] In the third embodiment, a modified example of the configuration for estimating the movement route for each user will be described. Here, a configuration using a wireless position detection technology will be described as an example.
[0243] Figure 21 An example of a configuration for estimating a moving route for each user using a conventional position detection technology based on a PHS (Personal Handyphone System) is shown. In the office Ra, three PHS receivers 90a, 90b, 90c having a PHS positional information communication function are installed. These are connected to the information collection terminal 50, and are separately arranged at three points, such as a corner in the office Ra, an edge position near a wall, or the like.
[0244] Each user belonging to the office Ra carries a PHS terminal 91 . The PHS receivers 90 a , 90 b , and 90 c regularly communicate with each PHS terminal 91 to measure a position, and input the position information of each PHS ter...
