Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.
[0028] (Example 1) The appointment thank-you email automatic generation system according to the embodiment of the present invention is a system that automatically creates an appointment thank-you email for a customer after a customer appointment. This system is a mechanism that automatically generates the schedule and text of the next meeting from the minutes and calendar information. First, the minutes and calendar information are collected after the appointment is completed, and AI analyzes this information. Next, the schedule of the next meeting is adjusted based on the analysis results, and an appropriate text is generated. This eliminates the trouble of adjusting the schedule, and allows business negotiations to proceed smoothly. For example, the minutes and calendar information are collected after the appointment is completed. The minutes often contain the contents of the appointment and the desired date and time of the next meeting. In addition, the calendar information contains the schedule of the customer and the person in charge. These pieces of information are collected and analyzed by AI. Next, the information collected by AI is analyzed. For example, the desired date and time of the next meeting is extracted from the minutes, and the free time of the customer and the person in charge is identified from the calendar information. This automatically adjusts the schedule of the next meeting. Furthermore, the AI generates the text of the appointment thank-you email based on the analysis results. For example, the system automatically creates a message such as, "Thank you for taking the time to meet with us today despite your busy schedule. How about scheduling our next meeting on XX / XX / XX?" This allows the person in charge to send a thank-you email to the customer quickly and without any trouble. This system eliminates the need for schedule adjustments and allows business negotiations to proceed smoothly. For example, when a person in charge manually adjusts a schedule, it often takes a long time to communicate with the customer, but by using the present invention, schedule adjustments can be made quickly and efficiently. In addition, the message for the appointment thank-you email is automatically generated, reducing the burden on the person in charge. This allows the appointment thank-you email automatic generation system to quickly and efficiently create an appointment thank-you email for the customer after the appointment is completed.
[0029] The appointment thank-you email automatic generation system according to the embodiment includes a collection unit, an analysis unit, an adjustment unit, and a generation unit. The collection unit collects minutes and calendar information. The minutes often contain, for example, the contents of the appointment and the desired date and time of the next meeting. The calendar information also contains the schedules of the client and the person in charge. The collection unit collects these pieces of information and provides them to the analysis unit. The analysis unit analyzes the information collected by the collection unit. The analysis unit extracts the desired date and time of the next meeting from the minutes using, for example, natural language processing technology, and identifies the free time of the client and the person in charge from the calendar information. The adjustment unit adjusts the schedule of the next meeting based on the analysis result obtained by the analysis unit. The adjustment unit adjusts the schedule while taking into account the free time of the client and the person in charge, for example, using an algorithm that selects the optimal date and time. The generation unit generates the text of the appointment thank-you email based on the schedule adjusted by the adjustment unit. The generation unit can generate the text using, for example, a template. The generation unit can also ensure the quality of the text using a feedback loop. This enables the appointment thank-you email automatic generation system to automatically collect, analyze, adjust schedules, and generate text for minutes and calendar information. For example, the collection unit can specifically describe the format of the minutes and the method for obtaining calendar information. The analysis unit can use natural language processing to extract information from the minutes. The adjustment unit can use an algorithm to select the optimal date and time. The generation unit can include a method for using and customizing templates. The generation unit can ensure the quality of the text using a feedback loop. This enables the appointment thank-you email automatic generation system to quickly and efficiently create appointment thank-you emails for customers after the customer appointments are completed.
[0030] The collection unit collects minutes and calendar information. For example, the minutes often contain the contents of the appointment and the desired date and time of the next meeting. In addition, the calendar information contains the schedules of the client and the person in charge. The collection unit collects these pieces of information and provides them to the analysis unit. Specifically, the collection unit extracts text data according to the format of the minutes, and the calendar information can be acquired through an API. Since the formats of minutes are diverse, such as handwritten notes, voice recordings, and digital documents, the collection unit is equipped with various data collection means to handle these formats. For example, handwritten notes are converted into digital text using OCR technology, and voice recordings are converted into text using voice recognition technology. For digital documents, text data is extracted using an appropriate parser depending on the file format. Calendar information is acquired through an API from general calendar services such as Google (registered trademark) Calendar and Outlook (registered trademark) Calendar, and schedules of clients and the person in charge are collected. This allows the collection unit to efficiently collect minutes and calendar information in various formats and provide it to the analysis unit. Furthermore, the collection unit is equipped with a database for centrally managing the collected data and maintaining the consistency of the data. This database organizes the collected data in chronological order and allows past data to be referenced as necessary, allowing the data collection unit to collect data efficiently and accurately, improving the performance of the entire system.
[0031] The analysis unit analyzes the information collected by the collection unit. For example, the analysis unit uses natural language processing technology to extract the desired date and time of the next meeting from the minutes, and identifies the free time of the customer or person in charge from the calendar information. Specifically, the analysis unit uses natural language processing technology to analyze the text data of the minutes and extract information about the next meeting. For example, a date and time recognition algorithm can be used to extract date and time expressions in the text. In addition, a schedule analysis algorithm can be used from the calendar information to analyze the schedule of the customer or person in charge and identify the free time. This allows the analysis unit to quickly and accurately analyze the collected data and identify the desired date and time of the next meeting and the free time. Furthermore, the analysis unit can also analyze long-term schedule trends by utilizing past data and statistical information. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the schedule pattern of a specific customer or person in charge based on past meeting data, and predicts the optimal meeting date and time. In addition, the analysis unit can use an anomaly detection algorithm to detect schedule patterns that are different from normal or abnormal data, and issue an early warning. This enables the analysis unit to not only grasp the situation in real time, but also handle long-term schedule management and anomaly detection, improving the reliability and efficiency of the entire system.
[0032] The adjustment unit adjusts the date of the next meeting based on the analysis result obtained by the analysis unit. The adjustment unit adjusts the schedule while considering the free time of the customer and the person in charge, for example, using an algorithm for selecting the optimal date and time. Specifically, the adjustment unit executes an algorithm for selecting the optimal meeting date and time based on the schedules of the customer and the person in charge. This algorithm has evaluation criteria for comparing the free time of each schedule and selecting the most suitable date and time. For example, it can preferentially select a time period when both the customer and the person in charge are free, and further consider past meeting trends and preferences for specific days of the week and time periods. This allows the adjustment unit to efficiently adjust the schedules of the customer and the person in charge and select the optimal meeting date and time. Furthermore, the adjustment unit also has a function for sending a meeting reminder to the customer and the person in charge based on the selected date and time. For example, it can send a reminder the day before the meeting to have the customer and the person in charge reconfirm the date and time of the meeting. In addition, the adjustment unit can quickly respond to schedule changes or cancellations and reschedule a new meeting date and time. This enables the coordination department to adjust schedules efficiently and flexibly, improving convenience for customers and staff.
[0033] The generation unit generates the text of the appointment thank-you email based on the schedule adjusted by the adjustment unit. The generation unit can generate the text using, for example, a template. The generation unit can also ensure the quality of the text using a feedback loop. Specifically, the generation unit can select and customize the optimal text according to the customer and the contents of the meeting based on multiple templates prepared in advance. For example, the template includes general thank-you text and a confirmation text for the next meeting date and time, and generates the text by combining these. The generation unit can also use natural language generation technology to automatically customize the text of the template and generate more natural and individualized text. Furthermore, the generation unit uses a feedback loop to ensure the quality of the generated text. Specifically, the generated text is sent to the customer or the person in charge, and the reaction and feedback are collected. Based on this feedback, the template and the generation algorithm can be improved, and the quality of the text can be continuously improved. For example, the response rate and satisfaction level from the customer can be evaluated, and the wording and structure of the template can be reviewed based on this. This enables the generation unit to consistently generate high-quality appointment thank-you emails and facilitate smooth communication with customers.
[0034] The collection unit can specifically describe the format of the minutes or the method of acquiring the calendar information. The collection unit can, for example, specifically describe the format of the minutes.

The collection unit can also specifically describe the method of acquiring the calendar information. The method of acquiring the calendar information includes, for example, acquisition using an API, manual input, and the like, but is not limited to such examples. By specifically describing the format of the minutes and the method of acquiring the calendar information, the accuracy of information collection is improved. A part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the collection unit may be performed, for example, using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the collection unit can input the format of the minutes and the method of acquiring the calendar information to AI, and have AI select the optimal format and acquisition method.
[0035] The analysis unit can extract information from the minutes using natural language processing. The analysis unit extracts information from the minutes using, for example, natural language processing technology. Natural language processing technology includes, for example, morphological analysis, grammatical analysis, semantic analysis, etc., but is not limited to such examples. For example, the analysis unit divides the text of the minutes into words using morphological analysis, analyzes the structure of the sentence using grammatical analysis, and understands the meaning of the sentence using semantic analysis. As a result, the accuracy of information extraction from the minutes is improved by using natural language processing. Part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the analysis unit is performed using a generation AI. For example, the analysis unit inputs the text data of the minutes to a generation AI, which performs morphological analysis, grammatical analysis, and semantic analysis to extract information.
[0036] The adjustment unit can use an algorithm for selecting an appropriate date and time. The adjustment unit uses, for example, an algorithm for selecting an appropriate date and time. The algorithm for selecting an appropriate date and time includes, for example, an optimization algorithm, a heuristic algorithm, and the like, but is not limited to such examples. For example, the adjustment unit uses an optimization algorithm to select an optimal date and time while considering the free time of the customer and the person in charge. The adjustment unit can also use a heuristic algorithm to select an optimal date and time based on past data. As a result, by using an algorithm for selecting an optimal date and time, the accuracy of schedule adjustment is improved. A part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the adjustment unit may be performed, for example, using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the adjustment unit can input schedule data of the customer and the person in charge into AI and cause AI to execute an algorithm for selecting an optimal date and time.
[0037] The generation unit may include a method for using or customizing a template. The generation unit may include, for example, a method for using a template. The method for using a template may include, for example, a fixed template, a dynamic template, and the like, but is not limited to such examples. For example, the generation unit may generate a text using a fixed template. The generation unit may also customize a text based on a user's input using a dynamic template. Furthermore, the generation unit may include a method for customization. The method for customization may include, for example, customization based on a user's input, customization based on past data, and the like, but is not limited to such examples. For example, the generation unit may customize a text based on a user's input. The generation unit may also customize a text based on past data. As a result, the inclusion of a method for using or customizing a template improves the flexibility of text generation. A part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI. For example, the generation unit inputs template data to the generation AI, and the generation AI generates a text based on the template.
[0038] The generation unit can ensure the quality of the text by using a feedback loop. The generation unit, for example, ensures the quality of the text by using a feedback loop. The feedback loop includes, for example, a method of collecting user feedback, a method of reflecting the feedback, and the like, but is not limited to such examples. For example, the generation unit collects user feedback and improves the text based on the feedback.

For example, the collection unit can cause AI to perform data encryption and access control.
[0040] The collection unit can optimize the format of the minutes or the method of acquiring calendar information based on the user's past behavior history. For example, the collection unit automatically selects and collects a format of minutes used by the user in the past. The collection unit can also preferentially acquire information from a calendar app used by the user in the past. Furthermore, the collection unit can also suggest the most efficient information acquisition method from the user's past behavior history.

[0044] When extracting information from the minutes using natural language processing, the analysis unit can adjust the level of detail of the analysis based on the importance of the contents of the minutes. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the minutes of important meetings in detail. The analysis unit can also analyze the minutes of less important meetings simply. Furthermore, the analysis unit can dynamically adjust the level of detail of the analysis according to the importance. As a result, important information can be analyzed in detail by adjusting the level of detail of the analysis based on the importance of the contents of the minutes. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the analysis unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the analysis unit can input importance data of the contents of the minutes to the generation AI and cause the generation AI to adjust the level of detail of the analysis.
[0045] The analysis unit can apply different analysis algorithms depending on the category of the minutes during analysis. For example, the analysis unit applies an analysis algorithm specialized for technical terms to minutes of a technical meeting. The analysis unit can also apply an analysis algorithm specialized for sales terms to minutes of a sales meeting. Furthermore, the analysis unit can dynamically select an optimal analysis algorithm depending on the category. This improves the accuracy of the analysis by applying different analysis algorithms depending on the category of the minutes.

First, the minutes and calendar information are collected after the appointment is completed, and AI analyzes this information. Next, the schedule of the next meeting is adjusted based on the analysis results, and an appropriate text is generated. This eliminates the trouble of adjusting the schedule, and allows business negotiations to proceed smoothly. For example, the minutes and calendar information are collected after the appointment is completed. The minutes often contain the contents of the appointment and the desired date and time of the next meeting. In addition, the calendar information contains the schedule of the customer and the person in charge. These pieces of information are collected and analyzed by AI. Next, the information collected by AI is analyzed.

This automatically adjusts the schedule of the next meeting. Furthermore, the AI generates the text of the appointment thank-you email based on the analysis results. For example, the system automatically creates a message such as, "Thank you for taking the time to meet with us today despite your busy schedule. How about scheduling our next meeting on XX / XX / XX?" This allows the person in charge to send a thank-you email to the customer quickly and without any trouble. This system eliminates the need for schedule adjustments and allows business negotiations to proceed smoothly. For example, when a person in charge manually adjusts a schedule, it often takes a long time to communicate with the customer, but by using the present invention, schedule adjustments can be made quickly and efficiently. In addition, the message for the appointment thank-you email is automatically generated, reducing the burden on the person in charge. This allows the appointment thank-you email automatic generation system to quickly and efficiently create an appointment thank-you email for the customer after the appointment is completed.
[0065] The appointment thank-you email automatic generation system according to the embodiment includes a collection unit, an analysis unit, an adjustment unit, and a generation unit. The collection unit collects minutes and calendar information. The minutes often contain, for example, the contents of the appointment and the desired date and time of the next meeting.

[0066] The collection department collects minutes and calendar information. For example, the minutes often contain the contents of the appointment and the desired date and time of the next meeting. In addition, the calendar information contains the schedules of the client and the person in charge. The collection department collects this information and provides it to the analysis department. Specifically, the collection department extracts text data according to the format of the minutes, and the calendar information can be obtained through an API. Since the formats of minutes are diverse, such as handwritten notes, voice recordings, and digital documents, the collection department has various data collection means to handle these formats. For example, handwritten notes are converted into digital text using OCR technology, and voice recordings are converted into text using voice recognition technology. For digital documents, text data is extracted using an appropriate parser depending on the file format. Calendar information is obtained through APIs from common calendar services such as Google Calendar and Outlook Calendar, and schedules of clients and people in charge are collected. This allows the collection department to efficiently collect minutes and calendar information in various formats and provide it to the analysis department. In addition, the collection department has a database for centrally managing the collected data and maintaining the consistency of the data. This database organizes the collected data in chronological order and allows past data to be referenced as necessary, allowing the data collection unit to collect data efficiently and accurately, improving the performance of the entire system.
[0067] The analysis unit analyzes the information collected by the collection unit. For example, the analysis unit uses natural language processing technology to extract the desired date and time of the next meeting from the minutes, and identifies the free time of the customer or person in charge from the calendar information. Specifically, the analysis unit uses natural language processing technology to analyze the text data of the minutes and extract information about the next meeting. For example, a date and time recognition algorithm can be used to extract date and time expressions in the text. In addition, a schedule analysis algorithm can be used from the calendar information to analyze the schedule of the customer or person in charge and identify the free time. This allows the analysis unit to quickly and accurately analyze the collected data and identify the desired date and time of the next meeting and the free time. Furthermore, the analysis unit can also analyze long-term schedule trends by utilizing past data and statistical information. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the schedule pattern of a specific customer or person in charge based on past meeting data, and predicts the optimal meeting date and time. In addition, the analysis unit can use an anomaly detection algorithm to detect schedule patterns that are different from normal or abnormal data, and issue an early warning. This enables the analysis unit to not only grasp the situation in real time, but also handle long-term schedule management and anomaly detection, improving the reliability and efficiency of the entire system.
[0068] The adjustment unit adjusts the date of the next meeting based on the analysis result obtained by the analysis unit. The adjustment unit adjusts the schedule while considering the free time of the customer and the person in charge, for example, using an algorithm for selecting the optimal date and time. Specifically, the adjustment unit executes an algorithm for selecting the optimal meeting date and time based on the schedules of the customer and the person in charge. This algorithm has evaluation criteria for comparing the free time of each schedule and selecting the most suitable date and time. For example, it can preferentially select a time period when both the customer and the person in charge are free, and further consider past meeting trends and preferences for specific days of the week and time periods. This allows the adjustment unit to efficiently adjust the schedules of the customer and the person in charge and select the optimal meeting date and time. Furthermore, the adjustment unit also has a function for sending a meeting reminder to the customer and the person in charge based on the selected date and time. For example, it can send a reminder the day before the meeting to have the customer and the person in charge reconfirm the date and time of the meeting. In addition, the adjustment unit can quickly respond to schedule changes or cancellations and reschedule a new meeting date and time. This enables the coordination department to adjust schedules efficiently and flexibly, improving convenience for customers and staff.
[0069] The generation unit generates the text of the appointment thank-you email based on the schedule adjusted by the adjustment unit. The generation unit can generate the text using, for example, a template. The generation unit can also ensure the quality of the text using a feedback loop. Specifically, the generation unit can select and customize the optimal text according to the customer and the contents of the meeting based on multiple templates prepared in advance. For example, the template includes general thank-you text and a confirmation text for the next meeting date and time, and generates the text by combining these. The generation unit can also use natural language generation technology to automatically customize the text of the template and generate more natural and individualized text. Furthermore, the generation unit uses a feedback loop to ensure the quality of the generated text. Specifically, the generated text is sent to the customer or the person in charge, and the reaction and feedback are collected. Based on this feedback, the template and the generation algorithm can be improved, and the quality of the text can be continuously improved. For example, the response rate and satisfaction level from the customer can be evaluated, and the wording and structure of the template can be reviewed based on this. This enables the generation unit to consistently generate high-quality appointment thank-you emails and facilitate smooth communication with customers.

[0088] The adjustment unit can estimate the user's emotion and adjust the schedule adjustment criteria based on the estimated user's emotion. For example, when the user is stressed, the adjustment unit performs flexible schedule adjustment. In addition, when the user is relaxed, the adjustment unit can also perform strict schedule adjustment. Furthermore, when the user is in a hurry, the adjustment unit can quickly adjust the schedule. This allows the schedule adjustment to be appropriate for the user by adjusting the schedule adjustment criteria based on the user's emotion. The emotion estimation is realized using an emotion estimation function using, for example, an emotion engine or a generation AI. The generation AI is a text generation AI (for example, LLM) or a multimodal generation AI, but is not limited to such examples.

In addition, when the user is relaxed, the adjustment unit can also perform all schedule adjustments equally. Furthermore, when the user is in a hurry, the adjustment unit can also prioritize schedule adjustments with high importance. In this way, the priority of schedule adjustments is determined based on the user's emotions, thereby reducing the burden on the user.

[0164] The data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. The processing by the data processing system 410 is executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the robot 414, but may be executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the robot 414.

[0165] Each of the multiple elements including the above-mentioned collection unit, analysis unit, adjustment unit, and generation unit is realized, for example, by at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing device 12. For example, the collection unit is realized by the control unit 46A of the robot 414, and collects minutes and calendar information. The analysis unit is realized, for example, by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12, and analyzes the collected information.

The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the above-mentioned example, and various changes are possible.
[0166] The emotion identification model 59 as an emotion engine may determine the emotion of the user according to a specific mapping. Specifically, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the emotion of the user according to an emotion map (see FIG. 9), which is a specific mapping. Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the emotion of the robot, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the emotion of the robot.
[0167] FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an emotion map 400 on which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. The closer to the center of the concentric circles, the more primitive emotions are arranged. The more outside the concentric circles, the more emotions that represent states and actions that arise from a state of mind are arranged. Emotions are a concept that includes emotions and mental states. On the left side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions that occur in the brain are arranged. On the right side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally induced by situational judgment are arranged. On the upper and lower sides of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions that occur in the brain and are induced by situational judgment are arranged. In addition, on the upper side of the concentric circles, emotions of "pleasure" are arranged, and on the lower side, emotions of "discomfort" are arranged. In this way, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure in which emotions are generated, and emotions that tend to occur simultaneously are mapped close to each other.
[0168] These emotions are distributed in the three o'clock direction of emotion map 400 and usually fluctuate between relief and anxiety. In the right half of emotion map 400, situational awareness dominates over internal sensations, resulting in a sense of calm.
[0169] The inside of emotion map 400 represents what is going on inside one's mind, and the outside of emotion map 400 represents behavior, so the further out you go on emotion map 400, the more visible the emotions become (the more they are expressed in behavior).
[0170] Here, human emotions are based on various balances such as posture and blood sugar level, and when these balances are far from the ideal, it indicates an unpleasant state, and when they are close to the ideal, it indicates a pleasant state. Emotions can also be created for robots, cars, motorcycles, etc., based on various balances such as posture and battery level, so that when these balances are far from the ideal, it indicates an unpleasant state, and when they are close to the ideal, it indicates a pleasant state. The emotion map may be generated, for example, based on the emotion map of Dr. Mitsuyoshi (Research on speech emotion recognition and emotion brain physiological signal analysis system, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). On the left half of the emotion map, emotions belonging to an area called "reaction" where sensation is dominant are lined up. On the right half of the emotion map, emotions belonging to an area called "situation" where situation recognition is dominant are lined up.
[0171] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. The first is the negative emotion around the middle of "repentance" or "remorse" on the situation side. In other words, this is when the robot experiences negative emotions such as "I never want to feel this way again" or "I don't want to be scolded again." The other is the positive emotion around "desire" on the response side. In other words, this is when the robot has positive feelings such as "I want more" or "I want to know more."
[0172] The emotion identification model 59 inputs the user input to a pre-trained neural network, obtains emotion values indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the emotion of the user. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple learning data that are combinations of the user input and emotion values indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400. Furthermore, this neural network is trained so that emotions that are located close to each other have similar values, as in the emotion map 900 shown in Fig. 10. Fig. 10 shows an example in which multiple emotions, "relief," "calm," and "encouraging," have similar emotion values.
[0173] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which a specific process is performed by one computer 22, but the technology disclosed herein is not limited to this, and distributed processing of the specific process may be performed by multiple computers, including computer 22.
[0174] In the above embodiment, an example in which the specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32 has been described, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this. For example, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a portable computer-readable non-transitory storage medium such as a Universal Serial Bus (USB) memory. The specific processing program 56 stored in the non-transitory storage medium is installed in the computer 22 of the data processing device 12. The processor 28 executes the specific processing in accordance with the specific processing program 56.
[0175] In addition, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, and the specific processing program 56 may be downloaded and installed on the computer 22 upon request from the data processing device 12.
[0176] It is not necessary to store all of the specific processing program 56 in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, or to store all of the specific processing program 56 in the storage 32; only a portion of the specific processing program 56 may be stored.
[0177] As the hardware resource for executing the specific process, various processors as shown below can be used. An example of the processor is a CPU, which is a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource for executing the specific process by executing software, i.e., a program. Another example of the processor is a dedicated electric circuit, which is a processor having a circuit configuration designed exclusively for executing a specific process, such as a Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), a Programmable Logic Device (PLD), or an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC). Each processor has a built-in or connected memory, and each processor executes the specific process by using the memory.
[0178] The hardware resource that executes the specific process may be one of these various processors, or may be 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). Also, the hardware resource that executes the specific process may be a single processor.
[0179] As an example of a configuration using one processor, first, one processor is configured by combining one or more CPUs and software, and this processor functions as a hardware resource that executes a specific process. Second, there is a configuration using a processor that realizes the functions of the entire system including multiple hardware resources that execute a specific process on a single IC chip, as typified by SoC (System-on-a-chip). In this way, a specific process is realized using one or more of the above-mentioned various processors as hardware resources.
[0180] Furthermore, more specifically, the hardware structure of these various processors can be an electric circuit that combines circuit elements such as semiconductor elements. The specific processes described above are merely examples. It goes without saying that unnecessary steps may be deleted, new steps may be added, or the order of processes may be changed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
[0181] In the above example, the first to fourth embodiments are described separately, but some or all of these embodiments may be combined. The smart device 14, the smart glasses 214, the headset terminal 314, and the robot 414 are only examples, and they may be combined with each other, or may be other devices. In the above example, the first and second embodiments are described separately, but they may be combined.
