[0027] Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 The configuration of an information processing system 1 to which an information processing device 10 according to the present invention is applied will be described. Figure 11 is a diagram showing a schematic configuration of an information processing system 1 . The information processing system 1 includes an information processing device 10 and a tactile sensor 80 .

[0028] The touch sensor 80 is an example of a sensor device that outputs an electrical signal according to applied pressure. Figure 2 : is a diagram showing a schematic structure of a touch sensor 80. The touch sensor 80 includes a plurality of first electrodes 82 extending in a first direction, a plurality of second electrodes 84 extending in a second direction intersecting the first direction, and a connector 86. The plurality of first electrodes 82 and the plurality of second electrodes 84 are arranged on a sheet-like substrate (not shown). In addition, a pressure-sensitive component (not shown) is stacked on the plurality of first electrodes 82 and the plurality of second electrodes 84 so as to cover the plurality of electrodes.

[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, a plurality of first electrodes 82 and a plurality of second electrodes 84 are arranged in a grid shape when viewed from above, and overlap at the intersections of the grid. The first electrodes 82 and the second electrodes 84 that overlap at each intersection constitute a sensor element that detects the pressure applied to the position of the intersection. Specifically, if pressure is applied to the tactile sensor 80, the contact state between the first electrode 82 and the second electrode 84 at the position where the pressure is applied changes, and the resistance value changes. Therefore, by measuring the resistance value of each sensor element, the pressure applied to each sensor element can be detected. That is, the tactile sensor 80 includes a plurality of sensor elements that respectively detect the applied pressure, and the pressure distribution is detected by the plurality of sensor elements.

[0030] The plurality of first electrodes 82 and the plurality of second electrodes 84 are respectively connected to a connector 86. The connector 86 and the information processing device 10 are connected to each other by wired or wireless communication. The connector 86 applies voltage to the first electrode 82 and the second electrode 84 in sequence, thereby measuring the resistance value of each sensor element, and transmits an electrical signal corresponding to the resistance value to the information processing device 10.

[0031] Furthermore, the information processing system 1 measures the amount of energy using the coloring component 90, which generates color with a concentration distribution corresponding to the amount of energy applied when energy (such as pressure and heat) is applied. Specifically, the information processing device 10 uses the camera 40 (see Figure 3 ) photographs the color-generating component 90 in a color-generating state with energy applied thereto, and derives the amount of energy applied to the color-generating component 90 from the photographed image.

[0032] As the coloring component 90, for example, Prescale (registered trademark) (manufactured by FUJIFILM Corporation) can be used, which can obtain a coloring concentration corresponding to the applied pressure. Prescale is formed by applying a coloring agent and a developer containing microcapsules containing a colorless dye on a sheet-like support. When pressure is applied to Prescale, the microcapsules are destroyed and the colorless dye is adsorbed on the developer and develops color. In addition, the coloring agent contains a variety of microcapsules of different sizes and strengths, so the coloring concentration varies depending on the amount of microcapsules destroyed by the applied pressure. Therefore, by observing the coloring concentration, the size of the pressure applied to Prescale and the pressure distribution can be measured.

[0033] However, in the tactile sensor 80, it is sometimes impossible to obtain a correct pressure distribution due to the deviation of the sensitivity of each sensor element, hysteresis characteristics, etc. Therefore, in the information processing device 10 according to the present exemplary embodiment, a common pressure is applied to the color component 90 and the tactile sensor 80, and the pressure distribution measured by the tactile sensor 80 is corrected based on the pressure distribution derived from the image obtained by photographing the color component 90. The information processing device 10 will be described in detail below.

[0034] First, refer to Figure 3 , an example of the hardware structure of the information processing device 10 is described. Figure 3 As shown, the information processing device 10 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 21, a non-volatile storage unit 22, and a memory 23 as a temporary storage area. In addition, the information processing device 10 includes a display 24 such as a liquid crystal display, an input unit 25, a network I / F (Interface) 26, and a camera 40. The CPU 21, the storage unit 22, the memory 23, the display 24, the input unit 25, the network I / F 26, and the camera 40 are connected via a bus 28 such as a system bus and a control bus so that various information can be transmitted and received to each other.

[0035] The storage unit 22 is implemented by a storage medium such as a HDD (Hard Disk Drive), an SSD (Solid State Drive), or a flash memory. The storage unit 22 stores an information processing program 27 and characteristic data 18 in the information processing device 10. The CPU 21 reads the information processing program 27 from the storage unit 22, expands it to the memory 23, and executes the expanded information processing program 27. The CPU 21 is an example of a processor of the present invention.

[0036] Figure 4An example of the characteristic data 18 is shown in FIG. The characteristic data 18 is data in which the relationship between the amount of energy (pressure value) applied to the coloring member 90 and the density of the coloring member 90 contained in the image obtained by photographing the coloring member 90 is preset. As the amount of energy, for example, a physical quantity corresponding to the energy that can be measured using the coloring member 90, such as a pressure value, can be appropriately used. Figure 4 In the embodiment, the pressure value is proportional to the concentration value, but the relationship between the pressure value and the concentration value is not necessarily limited to a proportional relationship.

[0037] The input unit 25 is used to receive user operations, such as a touch panel, a button, a keyboard, and a mouse. The network I / F 26 performs wired or wireless communication with the connector 86 of the tactile sensor 80 and other external devices (not shown). The camera 40 has a plurality of sensors with different spectral sensitivities. Under the control of the CPU 21, the sensor captures the subject (coloring component 90) and outputs an image signal of the captured image. As the information processing device 10, for example, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a wearable terminal, a personal computer, etc. having a camera function can be appropriately applied.

[0038] Next, refer to Figure 5 , an example of the functional structure of the information processing device 10 is described. Figure 5 As shown, the information processing device 10 includes an acquisition unit 30, a derivation unit 32, a correction unit 34, and a control unit 36. When the CPU 21 executes the information processing program 27, the CPU 21 functions as each functional unit of the acquisition unit 30, the derivation unit 32, the correction unit 34, and the control unit 36.

[0039] In the following, it is assumed that by applying pressure in a state where the coloring member 90 and the touch sensor 80 overlap, a common pressure is applied to the coloring member 90 and the touch sensor 80. Here, "common" means substantially the same, and for example, a difference in pressure that may be generated due to the overlapping of the coloring member 90 and the touch sensor 80 is allowed.

[0040] The acquisition unit 30 acquires an image (hereinafter referred to as a “coloring member image”) obtained by photographing the coloring member 90 by the camera 40. In addition, when the coloring member image includes an area other than the coloring member 90 (for example, a background area, etc.), the acquisition unit 30 may extract the area of ​​the coloring member 90.

[0041] The deriving unit 32 derives the first pressure distribution 50A applied to the chromatic member 90 from the chromatic member image acquired by the acquiring unit 30 using the feature data 18. Specifically, the deriving unit 32 converts the density value into a pressure value (amount of energy) for each pixel of the chromatic member image using the feature data 18, thereby deriving the pressure distribution (energy distribution).

[0042] Then, the acquisition unit 30 acquires the second pressure distribution 50B obtained from the electrical signal output from the tactile sensor 80 via the network I / F 26. Here, as described above, the pressure (energy) common to the pressure (energy) applied to the color member 90 is applied to the tactile sensor 80. That is, assuming that the tactile sensor 80 is correct, the first pressure distribution 50A derived from the color member image and the second pressure distribution 50B as the output of the tactile sensor 80 should be consistent.

[0043] However, in the touch sensor 80 , accurate pressure distribution may not be obtained due to variations in sensitivity of each sensor element, hysteresis characteristics, and the like. Figure 6 An example of a first pressure distribution 50A derived from the color component image and a second pressure distribution 50B as an output of the touch sensor 80 is shown in FIG. Figure 6 The second pressure distribution 50B shows that the peripheral portion cannot be appropriately measured compared to the first pressure distribution 50A.

[0044] Therefore, the correction unit 34 corrects the second pressure distribution 50B as the output of the touch sensor 80 based on the first pressure distribution 50A derived from the color member image. Specifically, the correction unit 34 corrects the second pressure distribution 50B by making the second pressure distribution 50B at least partially consistent with the first pressure distribution 50A.

[0045] refer to Figure 7 , an example of a correction method for the second pressure distribution 50B is described. The correction unit 34 can derive a correction coefficient for each coordinate (more specifically, each sensor element) in such a way that the pressure values ​​in the same coordinates are substantially consistent, based on the positional alignment of the first pressure distribution 50A and the second pressure distribution 50B. Figure 7 An example of each pressure value and correction coefficient in the same coordinate when the first pressure distribution 50A and the second pressure distribution 50B are expressed by xy coordinates is shown. Figure 7 As shown, the pressure value of the first pressure distribution 50A (the column of "coloring component") in the coordinates (p, q) is Apq, and the pressure value of the second pressure distribution 50B (the column of "tactile sensor") in the same coordinates (p, q) is Bpq. In this case, the correction coefficient kpq in the coordinates (p, q) is expressed by the following formula.

[0046] kpq=Apq / Bpq

[0047] The correction unit 34 derives a correction coefficient for each coordinate and stores the correction coefficient for each coordinate in the storage unit 22. The correction unit 34 corrects the second pressure distribution 50B using the derived correction coefficient. Specifically, the correction unit 34 derives the pressure value Cpq of the corrected second pressure distribution 50C in the coordinates (p, q) by the following equation.

[0048] Cpq=kpq×Bpq

[0049] Furthermore, when another third pressure distribution is acquired from the tactile sensor 80 after deriving the correction coefficient, the correction unit 34 may correct the third pressure distribution using the correction coefficient derived from the first pressure distribution 50A and the second pressure distribution 50B. The third pressure distribution may not be common to the pressure applied to the color generating member 90. Specifically, if the pressure value of the third pressure distribution in the coordinate (p, q) is Dpq, the correction unit 34 derives the pressure value Epq of the corrected third pressure distribution in the coordinate (p, q) by the following formula.

[0050] Epq=kpq×Dpq

[0051] Furthermore, the deriving unit 32 can derive various indices related to energy distribution. Various indices can be representative values ​​such as the maximum value, minimum value, average value, and intermediate value of the amount of energy. Furthermore, for example, it can be the area of ​​the region where energy is applied (hereinafter referred to as the "application region"), the proportion of the area within the range of the energy amount pre-set in the application region, the uniformity of the amount of energy applied, and the load of the application region (the product of the area of ​​the application region and the average value of the energy amount). Furthermore, for example, it can be the degree of consistency or deviation from the benchmark when a benchmark is pre-set for the energy amount and energy distribution.

[0052] The control unit 36 ​​can control the display 24 to display the corrected second pressure distribution 50C and at least one of various indices related to the corrected second pressure distribution 50C. In addition, the control unit 36 ​​can notify that the second pressure distribution 50B has been corrected based on the first pressure distribution 50A. As a method of notification, for example, a known method such as a display on the display 24, a sound from a speaker (not shown), and a flashing lamp (not shown) can be appropriately applied.

[0053] Figure 8 FIG. 2 shows an example of a screen D displayed on the display 24 by the control unit 36. The screen D includes the corrected second pressure distribution 50C and various indices related to the pressure distribution derived from the corrected second pressure distribution 50C. Figure 6 Compared with the second pressure distribution 50B before correction shown in FIG. Figure 8The corrected second pressure distribution 50C shown can be appropriately corrected for the peripheral portion and roughly consistent with the first pressure distribution 50A. The "pressure area" in the screen D refers to the area of ​​the application area. The "average pressure" refers to the average value of the pressure value in the application area. The "load" refers to the product of the application area and the average pressure. The "uniformity of pressure value" refers to the uniformity of the pressure value in the application area.

[0054] Next, refer to Fig. 9 The function of the information processing device 10 according to the present exemplary embodiment will be described. In the information processing device 10, the CPU 21 executes the information processing program 27 to execute Fig. 9 The information processing is performed when the user issues an instruction to start the information processing via the input unit 25. The following assumes that a common pressure is applied to the coloring member 90 and the touch sensor 80 by applying pressure in a state where the coloring member 90 and the touch sensor 80 overlap.

[0055] In step S10, the acquisition unit 30 acquires a color member image obtained by photographing the color member 90 with the camera 40. In step S12, the derivation unit 32 derives the first pressure distribution 50A applied to the color member 90 based on the color member image acquired in step S10 and using the feature data 18. In step S14, the acquisition unit 30 acquires the second pressure distribution 50B obtained from the electrical signal output from the touch sensor 80.

[0056] In step S16, the correction unit 34 corrects the second pressure distribution 50B acquired in step S14 based on the first pressure distribution 50A derived in step S12. In step S18, the control unit 36 ​​controls the display 24 to display the corrected second pressure distribution 50C corrected in step S16, and ends the information processing.

[0057] As described above, the information processing device 10 involved in one embodiment of the present invention includes at least one processor, and the processor performs the following processing: obtaining a color component image obtained by photographing a color component 90 that is colored with a concentration distribution corresponding to the amount of energy applied; using feature data 18 that pre-sets the relationship between the amount of energy applied to the color component 90 and the concentration of the color component 90 contained in the color component image, and deriving a first energy distribution applied to the color component 90 based on the color component image; obtaining a second energy distribution obtained from an electrical signal output from a sensor device when energy common to the energy applied to the color component 90 is applied to a sensor device that outputs an electrical signal based on the amount of energy applied; and correcting the second energy distribution based on the first energy distribution.

[0058] That is, according to the information processing device 10, even if the second pressure distribution 50B acquired from the tactile sensor 80 is inaccurate, the second pressure distribution 50B can be corrected based on the first pressure distribution 50A derived from the color component image. Therefore, appropriate measurement using a sensor device such as the tactile sensor 80 can be supported.

[0059] In addition, in the above exemplary embodiment, as an example of a sensor device, a method of using a tactile sensor 80 that outputs an electrical signal according to the applied pressure is described, but it is not limited to this. As a sensor device, for example, a temperature sensor that outputs an electrical signal according to the temperature (for example, refer to Japanese Patent Publication No. 2016-118552) can be used. That is, as a sensor device, a sensor device that includes a plurality of sensor elements that respectively detect the amount of various energies applied and outputs an electrical signal according to the amount of various energies applied can be appropriately used. And, in the case of using a temperature sensor as a sensor device, as a coloring component 90, a Thermoscale (product name) (manufactured by FUJIFILM Corporation) that produces color according to heat can be used.

[0060] Furthermore, as described above, the tactile sensor 80 may have a hysteresis characteristic. That is, the accuracy of the output pressure distribution may change each time the tactile sensor 80 is used. Therefore, for example, the information processing device 10 may re-perform the acquisition of the color component image by the acquisition unit 30, the derivation of the first energy distribution (first pressure distribution 50A) by the derivation unit 32, the acquisition of the second energy distribution (second pressure distribution 50B) by the acquisition unit 30, and the correction of the second energy distribution by the correction unit 34 every predetermined period (for example, every day). Furthermore, for example, the information processing device 10 may re-perform the above-mentioned processing every predetermined number of times the tactile sensor 80 is used (for example, every 10 times).

[0061] Furthermore, in the above exemplary embodiment, the information processing device 10 is described as having the camera 40, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, a method may be adopted in which the color developing member 90 is photographed using an external photographing device such as a digital camera or a scanner, and the information processing device 10 acquires the photographed image. In this case, the information processing device 10 may not have the camera 40.

[0062] Furthermore, in the exemplary embodiment described above, various processors as shown below can be used as the hardware configuration of the processing unit (processing unit) that performs various processes, such as the acquisition unit 30, the derivation unit 32, the correction unit 34, and the control unit 36. The various processors described above include, in addition to the CPU, which is a general-purpose processor that executes software (programs) and functions as various processing units as described above, processors that can change the circuit structure after manufacturing, such as FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array), programmable logic devices (PLD), and ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), which are processors that have a circuit structure specially designed to perform specific processing, i.e., dedicated circuits.

[0063] One processing unit may be composed of one of these various processors, or a combination of two or more processors of the same or different types (for example, a combination of multiple FPGAs or a combination of a CPU and an FPGA). Furthermore, multiple processing units may be composed of one processor.

[0064] As an example of a plurality of processing units being constituted by one processor, first, there is a method in which one processor is constituted by a combination of one or more CPUs and software, as represented by computers such as client terminals and servers, and the processor functions as a plurality of processing units. Second, there is a method in which a processor is used that implements the functions of the entire system including a plurality of processing units by one IC (Integrated Circuit) chip, as represented by a system on chip (SoC). In this way, various processing units are constituted by one or more of the above-mentioned various processors as a hardware structure.

[0065] Furthermore, as the hardware configuration of these various processors, more specifically, a circuit (circuitry) formed by combining circuit elements such as semiconductor elements can be used.

[0066] Furthermore, in the above exemplary embodiment, the information processing program 27 is described as being pre-stored (installed) in the storage unit 22, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The information processing program 27 may also be provided in a manner recorded on a recording medium such as a CD-ROM (Compact Disc Read Only Memory), a DVD-ROM (Digital Versatile Disc Read Only Memory), and a USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory. Furthermore, the information processing program 27 may also be provided in a manner of being downloaded from an external device via a network. In addition, the technology of the present invention relates to a storage medium that non-temporarily stores the information processing program in addition to the information processing program.
