[0015] [Vehicle 12 Configuration] The vehicle 12 is equipped with an acceleration sensor 18, a sound collection device 20, a sound output device 22, an operation device 24, a communication device 26, and a control device 28.

[0016] The acceleration sensor 18 measures the acceleration of the vehicle 12. The acceleration sensor 18 outputs acceleration information indicating the measured acceleration to the control device .

[0017] The sound collector 20 includes a microphone. The sound collector 20 collects sound within the cabin of the vehicle 12, converts the sound into digital data, and outputs the digital data to the control device 28.

[0018] The audio output device 22 includes a speaker. The audio output device 22 receives audio data from the control device 28 and outputs audio into the cabin based on the audio data.

[0019] The operation device 24 is a human-machine interface operated by a person (occupant). The operation device 24 is, for example, a touch panel. The touch panel outputs information (operation information) corresponding to an operation performed by the person (occupant) to the control device 28. The touch panel is also provided with a display element (not shown). For example, a liquid crystal display element, an organic electroluminescence display element, or the like can be used as the display element. The touch panel acquires image data supplied from the control device 28 and displays an image corresponding to the image data on a display screen. The operation device 24 may be a physical switch. As will be described later, the occupant or a third party other than the occupant can stop the confirmation control described later by speaking, but can also stop the confirmation control by an operation input via the operation device 24.

[0020] The communication device 26 is configured by, for example, a TCU (Telematics Control Unit). The communication device 26 can realize two-way communication between the control device 28 and a device (such as the information processing device 14) outside the vehicle 12.

At least a portion of the calculation unit 30 may be realized by an electronic circuit including discrete devices.

[0022] The speech information acquisition unit 34 acquires voice data supplied from the sound collection device 20. The collision information acquisition unit 36 ​​acquires acceleration information output by the acceleration sensor 18 and determines whether or not a collision has occurred on the vehicle 12. For example, the collision information acquisition unit 36 ​​determines that a collision has occurred on the vehicle 12 when a predetermined deceleration (or a predetermined acceleration) has occurred, and generates collision information indicating that a collision has occurred. The predetermined deceleration (or the predetermined acceleration) corresponds to, for example, a threshold value for whether or not to deploy an airbag. The reception unit 38 acquires operation information supplied from the operation device 24. The audio output control unit 40 outputs audio data to the audio output device 22. The display control unit 42 outputs image data to the operation device 24 (touch panel). The communication control unit 44 controls communication with the communication device 26.

[0023] The storage unit 32 is configured with a volatile memory (not shown) and a non-volatile memory (not shown) which are computer-readable storage media. The volatile memory is, for example, a random access memory (RAM). The non-volatile memory is, for example, a read only memory (ROM) or a flash memory. Data and the like are stored, for example, in the volatile memory. Programs, tables, maps, and the like are stored, for example, in the non-volatile memory. At least a part of the storage unit 32 may be provided in the above-mentioned processor, integrated circuit, and the like.

[0024] [Configuration of information processing device 14] The information processing device 14 is configured by, for example, a server device. The server device can be provided by a physical server or a cloud server. The information processing device 14 can perform two-way communication with other server devices via a communication line 16.

[0025] The information processing device 14 includes a calculation unit 48 and a storage unit 50. The calculation unit 48 may be configured by a processor such as a CPU or a GPU. That is, the calculation unit 48 may be configured by a processing circuit. The calculation unit 48 includes an utterance information acquisition unit 52, a collision information acquisition unit 54, a reception unit 56, a voice assist unit 58, an analysis unit 60, a control unit 62, and a clock unit 64. The utterance information acquisition unit 52, the collision information acquisition unit 54, the reception unit 56, the voice assist unit 58, the analysis unit 60, the control unit 62, and the clock unit 64 may be realized by the calculation unit 48 executing a program stored in the storage unit 50. At least a part of the calculation unit 48 may be realized by an integrated circuit such as an ASIC or an FPGA. At least a part of the calculation unit 48 may be realized by an electronic circuit including a discrete device.

[0026] The speech information acquisition unit 52 acquires voice data supplied from the vehicle 12 via the communication line 16. The collision information acquisition unit 54 acquires collision information supplied from the vehicle 12 via the communication line 16. The reception unit 56 acquires operation information supplied from the vehicle 12 via the communication line 16. The voice assist unit 58 generates response data (assist data). The response data is voice data obtained by converting text data indicating the content of a response to the occupant's speech into data in a predetermined voice data format, but is not limited to this. The voice assist unit 58 has, for example, a voice recognition function and a natural language processing function. The analysis unit 60 analyzes the content of the occupant's speech based on the voice data acquired by the speech information acquisition unit 52 after the vehicle 12 has been hit. The analysis unit 60 has, for example, a voice recognition function. The control unit 62 executes confirmation control, which is control for confirming the state of the occupant by voice after the vehicle 12 has been hit. The control unit 62 may have, for example, a natural language processing function. The timing unit 64 measures the execution time of the verification control by the control unit 62 using a timer.

[0027] The storage unit 50 is configured with a volatile memory (not shown) and a non-volatile memory (not shown) which are computer-readable storage media. The volatile memory is, for example, a RAM. The non-volatile memory is, for example, a ROM, a flash memory. Data and the like are stored, for example, in the volatile memory. Programs, tables, maps, and the like are stored, for example, in the non-volatile memory. At least a part of the storage unit 50 may be provided in the above-mentioned processor, integrated circuit, and the like.

[0028] [1-2 Interactive processing] When the vehicle 12 is not in a collision state, the information processing system 10 executes a dialogue process. For example, the voice assist unit 58 of the information processing device 14 can respond to inquiries from the occupant. The dialogue process is performed, for example, in the following procedure.

[0029] The speech information acquisition unit 34 of the vehicle 12 acquires the speech data output by the sound collection device 20. The speech data is voice data obtained by digitizing the speech of the occupant. The communication control unit 44 of the vehicle 12 transmits the speech data to the information processing device 14 via the communication device 26. The voice assist unit 58 executes voice recognition and natural language processing based on the speech data to generate response data to the occupant's speech. The voice assist unit 58 transmits the response data to the vehicle 12 via the communication line 16. The communication control unit 44 of the vehicle 12 acquires the response data via the communication device 26. The voice output control unit 40 of the vehicle 12 outputs the response data to the voice output device 22. The voice output device 22 of the vehicle 12 outputs a response to the occupant's inquiry by voice.

[0030] [1-3 Crew safety confirmation process] After a collision of the vehicle 12, the information processing system 10 executes an occupant safety confirmation process. Fig. 2 is a flowchart of the occupant safety confirmation process performed in the vehicle 12. Fig. 3 is a flowchart of the occupant safety confirmation process performed in the information processing device 14.

[0031] 2, the collision information acquisition unit 36 ​​of the vehicle 12 acquires acceleration information supplied from the acceleration sensor 18, and determines whether or not a collision has occurred on the vehicle 12. If a collision has occurred on the vehicle 12 (step S1: YES), the process proceeds to step S2. On the other hand, if a collision has not occurred on the vehicle 12 (step S1: NO), the process of step S1 continues to be executed.

[0032] When the process proceeds from step S1 to step S2, the communication control unit 44 of the vehicle 12 controls the transmission of collision information to the information processing device 14. As a result, the collision information is transmitted to the information processing device 14 via the communication device 26 and the communication line 16. When step S2 ends, the process proceeds to step S3 shown in FIG.

[0033] 3, the collision information acquisition unit 54 of the information processing device 14 acquires collision information via the communication line 16. As a result, the information processing device 14 detects that a collision has occurred in the vehicle 12, and starts executing confirmation control from step S4 onwards. When step S3 ends, the process proceeds to step S4.

[0034] In step S4, the timer 64 of the information processing device 14 starts timing the execution time of the verification control. After that, the process proceeds to step S5.

[0035] In step S5, the control unit 62 of the information processing device 14 generates safety confirmation data. The safety confirmation data is voice data for confirming the safety of occupants. For example, the control unit 62 generates the safety confirmation data by converting text data for safety confirmation into data in a predetermined voice data format. The text data for safety confirmation may be determined in advance, such as "Are you OK?", "Are you hurt?", etc. The text data for safety confirmation may be stored in the storage unit 50 in advance.

[0036] In step S6, the control unit 62 controls the transmission of the safety confirmation data and image data to the vehicle 12. As a result, the safety confirmation data and image data are transmitted to the vehicle 12 via the communication line 16. The image data is data for displaying a stop switch for stopping the safety confirmation process on the touch panel (operation device 24) of the vehicle 12. When step S6 ends, the process proceeds to step S7 shown in FIG. 2.

[0037] 2, the communication control unit 44 of the vehicle 12 acquires the safety confirmation data and the image data via the communication line 16 and the communication device 26. When step S7 ends, the process proceeds to step S8.

[0038] In step S8, the audio output control unit 40 of the vehicle 12 outputs safety confirmation data to the audio output device 22. As a result, the audio output device 22 outputs audio (audio for safety confirmation) to confirm the safety of occupants to the cabin of the vehicle 12. In addition, the display control unit 42 outputs image data to the touch panel (operation device 24). As a result, the touch panel displays a stop switch. When step S8 ends, the process proceeds to step S9 and step S10.

[0039] In step S9, the speech information acquisition unit 34 of the vehicle 12 acquires speech data collected by the sound collection device 20 for a predetermined time. In step S10, which is performed in parallel with step S9, the reception unit 38 receives an operation input for instructing the suspension of safety confirmation for a predetermined time. When a stop button displayed on the touch panel is pressed, the reception unit 38 generates suspension instruction data. When steps S9 and S10 are completed, the process proceeds to step S11.

[0040] In step S11, the communication control unit 44 of the vehicle 12 controls the transmission of speech data to the information processing device 14. As a result, the speech data is transmitted to the information processing device 14 via the communication device 26 and the communication line 16. When stop instruction data is generated in step S10, the communication control unit 44 controls the transmission of the stop instruction data to the information processing device 14. When step S11 ends, the process proceeds to step S12 shown in FIG. 3.

[0041] 3, the speech information acquisition unit 52 of the information processing device 14 acquires speech data via the communication line 16. When the stop instruction data is transmitted, the reception unit 56 acquires the stop instruction data. As a result, the reception unit 56 accepts an operation input for instructing the stop of the confirmation control. When step S12 ends, the process proceeds to step S13.

[0042] In step S13, the analysis unit 60 of the information processing device 14 analyzes the speech data. For example, the analysis unit 60 performs voice recognition based on the speech data and generates text data of the voice. When step S13 ends, the process proceeds to step S14.

[0043] In step S14, the control unit 62 of the information processing device 14 performs natural language processing based on the text data generated by the analysis unit 60, and determines whether or not the occupant has responded to the voice for safety confirmation. For example, if the speech content includes an expression describing the current situation, the control unit 62 determines that the occupant has responded to the voice for safety confirmation. If the occupant has responded to the voice for safety confirmation (step S14: YES), the process proceeds to step S17. On the other hand, if the speech content does not include an expression describing the current situation, the control unit 62 determines that the occupant has not responded to the voice for safety confirmation. If the occupant has not responded to the voice for safety confirmation (step S14: NO), the process proceeds to step S15.

[0044] When the process proceeds from step S14 to step S15, the control unit 62 determines whether or not a stop instruction has been issued. If the reception unit 56 has received stop instruction data in step S12, the control unit 62 determines that a stop instruction has been issued. If the control unit 62 determines that a stop instruction has been issued (step S15: YES), the process proceeds to step S17. On the other hand, if the control unit 62 determines that a stop instruction has not been issued (step S15: NO), the process proceeds to step S16.

[0045] When the process proceeds from step S15 to step S16, the timer unit 64 determines whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed since the start of the verification control. If the predetermined time has elapsed (step S16: YES), the process proceeds to step S17. On the other hand, if the predetermined time has not elapsed (step S16: NO), the process returns to step S6.

[0046] When the process proceeds from any one of step S14, step S15, and step S16 to step S17, the control unit 62 stops the confirmation control. Specifically, the control unit 62 stops the transmission of safety confirmation data and image data to the vehicle 12. This ends the occupant safety confirmation process shown in Figs. 2 and 3.

[0047] The information processing device 14 may acquire acceleration information from the vehicle 12. In this case, information including the deceleration at the time of the collision among the acceleration information transmitted from the vehicle 12 corresponds to the collision information. The collision information acquisition unit 54 of the information processing device 14 determines whether or not a collision has occurred in the vehicle 12 by determining whether or not the acceleration information includes collision information.

[0048] The safety confirmation data generated by the control unit 62 in step S5 may be generated by the audio output control unit 40 of the vehicle 12. In this case, the control unit 62 may generate instruction information for instructing the generation of the safety confirmation data, instead of generating the safety confirmation data.

[0049] According to the first embodiment, when a collision occurs in the vehicle 12, it is possible to better respond. That is, according to the first embodiment, it is possible to judge the state (safety) of the occupant based on the speech of the occupant after a collision of the vehicle 12, and it is possible to respond appropriately based on the judgment result. For example, if there is no response from the occupant or if the occupant requests a report, the control unit 62 can report to an appropriate contact. For example, if the occupant is injured, the control unit 62 can continue to have a dialogue with the occupant. In this case, the control unit 62 may continue to output voice data encouraging the occupant.
