Guiding device and guiding method

Abstract

A guiding device capable of inclining a user to move along a guiding route. The guiding device is a device for guiding a user and has an acquisition section (101) for acquiring a guiding route for theuser, a recognition section (102) for recognizing an object present in the periphery of the user, a management section (104) for managing, in an associated manner, the object and a method for adjusting an influence that the object affects the behavior of the user, a determination section (103) for determining whether the object recognized by the recognition section (102) is present in the guidingroute acquired by the acquisition section (101), and an adjustment section (110) for executing a predetermined adjustment processing based on the result determined by the determination section (103)and on the adjustment method managed in association with the object recognized by the recognition section (102).

Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to a guiding device and a guiding method for guiding a user. Background technique

[0002] Conventionally, there are devices that guide users to their destinations.

[0003] For example, there is a device that guides the guiding direction by voice according to the orientation of the pedestrian's body (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). According to this device, the problem of mistaking the moving direction can be alleviated by providing walking guidance following the voice guidance.

[0004] In addition, there is a device that blinks an evacuation guidance lamp based on a fire signal for evacuation guidance (for example, refer to Patent Document 2). According to this device, evacuation is carried out according to the blinking state of the evacuation guidance lamp, and the problem of making the moving direction mistaken can be alleviated.

Embodiment approach 1

[0074] figure 1 It is a schematic external view of the guidance device in Embodiment 1 of this invention. Specifically, the guidance device 401 is a lighting fixture equipped with a projector 401a for projecting an image 300, and includes a communication unit 401b for communicating with a mobile phone (not shown) or the like.

[0075] figure 2 It is a schematic functional block diagram of the guidance device according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. The guidance device functionally includes an acquisition unit 101 , an identification unit 102 , a determination unit 103 , a management unit 104 , and an adjustment unit 110 .

[0076] The acquisition unit 110 acquires guidance route information of the user. The user is an object whose actions are guided by the guidance device, and may be an infant or a pet such as a dog or a cat. Users can be single or multiple. In addition, the person who sets the guidance purpose such as the destination may be the user, or may b...

Embodiment approach 2

[0137] In the above-mentioned first embodiment, a lighting fixture equipped with a projector was exemplified as a guiding device, and a case where the lighting fixture guided a baby in a room was described. In Embodiment 2, a transmissive HMD (Head Mounted Display) is exemplified as a guidance device, and a case where the transmissive HMD guides a user moving in a station will be described. Here, a transmissive HMD is exemplified and described, but other types of HMDs such as a face mount display, a glasses display, a transmissive display, and a retinal scanning display may also be used.

[0138] Figure 15 It is a schematic external view of the guidance device in Embodiment 2 of this invention. The transmissive HDM is an information presentation device in the shape of goggles or a helmet, and includes: a computer 11 for performing various controls for presenting information to the user; a display device 12 such as an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display: liquid crystal display); An ...
