Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an event management system and an event management method. [Background technology]

[0002] When an event such as a live performance is held, images of the event held at the event venue and sounds recorded at the event are distributed via the Internet, making it possible to enjoy the event remotely from the event venue. In such an event distribution system, viewers can pay the performers of the event by performing a charging operation via a terminal device. The performers can receive money according to the amount charged. Viewers may charge in this way as a payment for viewing the performance or to please the performers. The performers can check the status of the charging on a monitor or the like installed near the stage. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Patent Publication No. 2022-066666 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, if such a billing system were to be implemented at an actual event venue, visitors would need to take out their terminal device and input the billing operation during the event. In that case, while looking at the screen of a smartphone or tablet and inputting the billing operation, the visitor would need to shift his or her gaze from the stage where the event is being held to the screen of the terminal device, reducing the time available for viewing the event. Also, in order for performers to look at a monitor or the like at an actual event venue to understand the billing status, they would need to shift their gaze from the visitors to the monitor or the like, reducing the time they can look at the visitors. Therefore, when charging is made at an actual event venue, both visitors and performers are required to shift their gaze, which reduces the sense of unity between the attendees and the performers.

[0005] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above circumstances, and its object is to provide an event management system and an event management method that make it easy to grasp the charging status even when charging is carried out at an actual event venue. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, one aspect of the present invention is an event management system having an event terminal that is used by visitors at an actual event venue and is equipped with a light-emitting unit, a selection unit that accepts an operation to select a charge level input to the event terminal, an illumination control unit that causes the light-emitting unit to emit light in an illumination pattern corresponding to the selected charge level, and a charge content acquisition unit that acquires charge content based on the selected charge level and the operation input to the event terminal.

[0007] Another aspect of the present invention is an event management method in which the above-mentioned selection unit is used by a visitor at an actual event venue and accepts an operation to select a charging level that is input to an event terminal in which a light-emitting unit is provided, a light-emitting control unit causes the light-emitting unit to emit light in a light-emitting pattern that corresponds to the selected charging level, and a charging content acquisition unit acquires charging content based on the selected charging level and the operation input to the event terminal. Effect of the Invention

[0008] As described above, according to the present invention, even when charging is carried out at an actual event venue, it is possible to make it easier to grasp the charging status without compromising the sense of realism and unity. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0010] An event management system S according to an embodiment of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings. Fig. 1 is a schematic block diagram showing the configuration of an event management system S according to an embodiment of the present invention. The event management system S includes an event terminal 10a, an event terminal 10b, a terminal device 20a, a terminal device 20b, an event management server 30, a camera C, a sound collection device M, a tape ejection device T, a performance device E, a visitor identification information acquisition device R, and a network NW. The terminal device 20a, the terminal device 20b, the event management server 30, the camera C, the sound collection device M, the tape ejection device T, the performance device E, and the visitor identification information acquisition device R are communicatively connected via a network NW. The event terminal 10a and the terminal device 20a are connected to each other wirelessly or via a wire so as to be able to communicate with each other, and the event terminal 10b and the terminal device 20b are connected to each other wirelessly or via a wire so as to be able to communicate with each other.

[0011] Event terminal 10a and event terminal 10b are used by visitors who are actually at the event venue. An event is an event held for visitors, and may be, for example, any of a live performance, a concert, a play, a performance, a movie, etc. When the event is a live performance, visitors can watch the performers singing and dancing. The actual event venue is a so-called real space, and may be any of an actually constructed building, a plaza where participants can enter, a commercial facility, and the like.

[0012] The event terminal 10a and the terminal device 20a are used by one attendee, and the event terminal 10b and the terminal device 20b are used by one attendee.

[0013] The event terminal 10 (when the event terminal 10a and the event terminal 10b are not particularly distinguished from each other, they will be simply referred to as "event terminal 10") is carried by attendees. The event terminal 10 is, for example, a penlight. The event terminal 10 can be used to liven up the event by waving it while emitting light, or to allow attendees to make their presence known to the performers. The terminal device 20 (when the terminal device 20a and the terminal device 20b are not particularly distinguished from each other, they will be simply referred to as "terminal device 20") is carried by a visitor. The terminal device 20 may be, for example, any of a smartphone, a tablet, etc.

[0014] Camera C captures the inside of the event venue. The sound collecting device M is disposed in the event venue and collects sounds generated in the event venue. The sound collecting device M may be a microphone. The tape ejection device T ejects tape into the area where the audience is accommodated at the event venue. The tape is called gold or silver tape, and is ejected so that it falls from a stage where performers are present at a live or concert venue onto the area where the audience is present. Such tape is sometimes used as one of the event productions.

[0015] The performance device E is attached to a gate located somewhere in the event venue. The performance device E includes, for example, at least one of a light source and a speaker. The visitor identification information acquisition device R acquires visitor identification information that identifies a visitor from a terminal device 20 carried by a visitor passing through the gate. For example, the visitor identification information acquisition device R is an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) reader, and can acquire, from an IC chip mounted on the terminal device 20, identification information assigned to the IC chip as visitor identification information.

[0016] FIG. 2 is an external view showing the appearance of the event terminal 10. As shown in FIG. The event terminal 10 has a gripping unit 111 and a light-emitting unit 103 connected by a connecting unit 112. The event terminal 10 is rod-shaped. A visitor can hold the gripping unit 111 and swing the event terminal 10 from side to side or up and down. A plurality of operation buttons 115, 116 are provided on the outer circumferential surface of the gripping unit 111 near the connecting unit 112. The operation button 115 is assigned as a selection button for making various selections, and the operation button 116 may be assigned as a decision button. Here, there are two operation buttons, but there may be one, or three or more.

[0017] A circuit board on which electrical components are mounted is housed on the inner periphery of the grip part 111, and a light source is housed on the inner periphery of the light-emitting part 103, and a control part mounted on the circuit board can control the on / off, blinking, brightness, etc. of the light source. Also, a power supply part such as a battery is housed on the inner periphery of the grip part 111, and power is supplied from this power supply part to the control part and the light source. The light-emitting unit 103 has a plurality of light sources arranged between the connecting portion 112 and the tip portion 113, and is capable of emitting light over the entire length of the light-emitting unit 103. It is also possible to light only a portion of the length of the light-emitting unit 103 by turning on only one of the light sources provided in the light-emitting unit 103, or to light (or turn off) only a portion of the length of the light-emitting unit 103 by turning off only one of the plurality of light sources.

[0018] FIG. 3 is a schematic functional block diagram showing the functions of the event terminal 10. As shown in FIG. The event terminal 10 includes a memory unit 101 , a communication unit 102 , a light emission unit 103 , an input unit 104 , a selection unit 105 , a light emission control unit 106 , a motion detection unit 107 , a motion detection permission acquisition unit 108 , and a control unit 109 . The storage unit 101 stores billing registration data. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the billing registration data. The charging registration data is data in which a charging level, a charging unit, a registration action, and a light emission color are associated with each other. The charging level indicates the degree of charging. The charging unit indicates the amount charged per time in response to at least one of a change in the attitude of the event terminal 10 and an operation input such as a button on the event terminal 10. The registration action is an action required to perform charging. Different light emission colors are registered according to the charging level. For example, a charging level of 0 indicates that the light-emitting unit 103 emits white light and is not registered as a registered action, so that no charge will be incurred no matter what action a visitor performs while holding the event terminal 10. In addition, at charging level 1, the light emitting unit 103 emits blue light and the registered action is "shake 10 times," indicating that when it is detected that the event terminal 10 has been shook 10 times by a visitor, a charging process of "10 yen" will be executed. Furthermore, charging level 4 indicates that the light emitting unit 103 emits orange light, and "movement pattern A" is registered as the registered motion, and therefore, when a motion according to motion pattern A is detected while a visitor is holding the event terminal 10, a charging process of "100 yen" will be executed. The motion pattern is a motion (for example, a specific choreography) according to a predetermined dance for the music played during the event while holding the event terminal 10.

[0019] Returning to Fig. 3, the communication unit 102 is connected to and communicates with the terminal device 20 by short-range wireless communication such as Bluetooth (registered trademark). The communication unit 102 communicates with a registered communication partner (terminal device 20) by performing processing such as pairing in advance with the terminal device 20 with which the communication unit 102 is to communicate. For example, the terminal device 20a is registered as a communication partner of the communication unit 102 of the event terminal 10a. Also, the terminal device 20b is registered as a communication partner of the communication unit 102 of the event terminal 10b.

[0020] The light emitting unit 103 has a light source, and emits light by turning on the light source. The light emitting unit 103 can emit any one of a plurality of colors such as red, blue, yellow, and green by switching between the colors.

[0021] The input unit 104 receives operation contents from visitors. The input unit 104 is, for example, an operation button, and may be the operation buttons 115, 116 in FIG. The selection unit 105 accepts an operation to select a charging level, which is input to the event terminal 10, based on the input contents input from the input unit 104. For example, the charging level can be selected according to the number of times an operation button is pressed from the input unit 104. The selection unit 105 accepts an operational input of a charging level during a charging period during which charging can be accepted during the period during which the event is held at the event venue.

[0022] The light emission control unit 106 causes the light emitting unit 103 to emit light in a light emission mode according to the selected charge level. The light emission control unit 106 causes the light emitting unit 103 to emit light in different colors according to the charge level. The light emission control unit 106 emits light in a light emission mode that notifies the execution of charging processing in response to detection of an action to execute charging based on an action input to the event terminal 10. For example, when charging level 2 is selected, the light emission unit 103 may be lit in green, and when it is detected that the event terminal 10 has been shaken 10 times, the light emission unit 103 may flash in green. This allows a visitor holding the event terminal 10, other visitors, and performers to visually confirm that the charging level is 2 by visually confirming that the light is lit in green, and to visually confirm that charging has been executed by visually confirming that the light is flashing in green.

[0023] The motion detection unit 107 detects the motion of the event terminal 10 held by the visitor being shaken by the visitor. For example, the motion detection unit 107 detects the motion of the event terminal 10 being shaken, and detects whether the motion was in motion pattern A or motion pattern B. The motion detection unit 107 includes an acceleration sensor of three axes, x, y, and z, and can detect changes in the posture of the event terminal 10 and detect the motion of the visitor holding the event terminal 10 by measuring the acceleration in three axes (up-down, left-right, and depth directions).

[0024] The motion detection permission acquisition unit 108 receives an instruction as to whether or not motion detection is permitted based on an operation input by a visitor inputted from the input unit 104 . The control unit 109 controls each unit of the event terminal 10 .

[0025] FIG. 5 is a schematic functional block diagram illustrating the functions of the terminal device 20. As shown in FIG. The terminal device 20 includes a storage unit 201 , a communication unit 202 , an input unit 203 , an output unit 204 , and a control unit 205 . The storage unit 201 stores data in which visitor identification information and electronic tickets are associated with each other. An electronic ticket is a ticket for entry into an event venue, and is electronically issued data. The visitor identification information can be identification information stored in an IC chip mounted on the terminal device 20. Furthermore, when the storage unit 201 receives content from the event management server 30, the storage unit 201 stores the received content. The stored content is read out by the control unit 205, the video included in the content is played back, and the image is displayed on the liquid crystal display panel of the output unit 204, and sound is output from the speaker or the like of the output unit 204.

[0026] The communication unit 202 communicates with the event terminal 10. Here, identification information is individually assigned to the event terminal 10. When communicating with the event terminal 10, the communication unit 202 acquires the identification information from the event terminal 10 and communicates with the identification information registered as a communication partner.

[0027] The input unit 203 accepts operational input from visitors. The input unit 203 may be, for example, a touch panel, a numeric keypad, or the like. The output unit 204 is a liquid crystal display panel, a speaker, etc., and outputs various information. The output unit 204 can also output sound to headphones connected to the outside of the terminal device 20 by wire or wirelessly. The control unit 205 controls each unit of the terminal device 20 .

[0028] FIG. 6 is a schematic functional block diagram illustrating the functions of the event management server 30. As shown in FIG. The event management server 30 has a memory unit 301 , a communication unit 302 , a billing content acquisition unit 303 , a recorded data acquisition unit 304 , a content extraction unit 305 , a content transmission unit 306 , a performance control unit 307 , an injection control unit 308 , and a control unit 309 .

[0029] The storage unit 301 stores billing data and contents. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of the billing data stored in storage unit 301. As shown in FIG. The charging data is data in which visitor identification information, charging details, and charging sections are associated with each other. The charging section is data that can identify the time when the charging details were acquired from the event terminal 10. Furthermore, the charging section only needs to be able to identify the timing of the event at which charging occurred, and may be, for example, the name of a song played at the event. Furthermore, the charging section may be information that identifies which charging period it is. Here, the charging period and charging section may be in units of one song. For example, it is shown that a visitor to whom visitor identification information "1001" has been assigned has paid "150" yen for "Song A." It also shows that the visitor assigned visitor identification information "1002" was charged "550" yen for "Song B" and "300" yen for "Song F."

[0030] FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of content data stored in storage unit 301. As shown in FIG. The content data is data in which a song title, a captured image, and collected sound data are associated with each other. The song title is the name of the song performed at the event. The captured image is an image captured by the camera C. The collected sound data is collected sound data obtained by the sound collection device M.

[0031] The communication unit 302 communicates with the terminal device 20a, the terminal device 20b, the camera C, the sound collection device M, the tape ejection device T, the performance device E, and the visitor identification information acquisition device R via the network NW.

[0032] The charge details acquisition unit 303 acquires, via the communication unit 302, charge details based on the selected charge level and the operation input to the event terminal from the event terminal 10 connected to the terminal device 20. The billing content acquisition unit 303 acquires billing content in response to detection of an action for performing billing based on an action input to the event terminal 10. The action for performing billing may be an action for performing billing when the number of times the event terminal 10 is shook reaches a predetermined number of times, or an action in which the pattern of the action of shaking the event terminal 10 corresponds to a predetermined action pattern. For example, when an action of shaking the event terminal 10 is detected, the billing content acquisition unit 303 acquires billing content based on the detection result of the detected shaking action that the number of times the terminal is shook has reached the number for performing billing. The billing content acquisition unit 303 may also acquire billing content when the detected shaking action matches a predetermined action pattern.

[0033] Furthermore, the billing details acquisition unit 303 may be able to acquire billing details at all times during the event period, or may be able to acquire them only during a specific period. That is, the billing details acquisition unit 303 acquires billing details according to the detected shaking motion during a period during which motion detection is permitted. When the event is a live performance, the period during which motion detection is permitted may be a specific section of a predetermined song among multiple songs played at the live performance. The billing details acquisition unit 303 stores the acquired billing details in the storage unit 301 as billing data.

[0034] The recorded data acquisition unit 304 acquires data recorded at the event venue via the communication unit 302. For example, the recorded data acquisition unit 304 acquires captured images of the inside of the event venue captured by the camera C. The recorded data acquisition unit 304 also acquires collected sound data collected by the sound collection device M. The recorded data acquisition unit 304 stores the captured images acquired by the camera C and the collected sound data acquired by the sound collection device M in the storage unit 301 as content.

[0035] The content extraction unit 305 extracts, for each attendee, content according to the accepted billing details from among the contents including at least one of video footage of an event held at an event venue and audio footage of the event. For example, the content extraction unit 305 extracts content including at least one of video footage and audio footage from a period during which the billing details were accepted. The period during which the billing details were accepted may be within a certain period of time (e.g., 3 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, etc.) after the billing details were accepted, or may be songs played at the event that were played at the time the billing details were accepted. The content transmitting unit 306 transmits the extracted content to the terminal device 20 associated with the event terminal 10 that is the transmission source of the billing details.

[0036] The performance control unit 307 determines the performance mode to be performed by the performance device E according to the charge details of the visitor indicated by the visitor identification information, and causes the performance device E to output at least one of sound and light according to the determined performance mode.

[0037] The ejection control unit 308 selects the type of tape to be ejected based on the acquired billing details, and causes the tape ejection device T to eject the selected type of tape.

[0038] The control unit 309 controls each unit of the event management server 30 . This event management server 30 may be a single server device, or the functions of the event management server 30 may be distributed among multiple server devices, and these multiple server devices may communicate with each other to form a cloud server.

[0039] The above-mentioned memory unit 101, memory unit 201, and memory unit 301 are configured by a storage medium, such as a HDD (Hard Disk Drive), a flash memory, an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access read / write Memory), a ROM (Read Only Memory), or any combination of these storage media. The storage unit 101, the storage unit 201, and the storage unit 301 may be implemented using, for example, a non-volatile memory.

[0040] The communication unit 102, selection unit 105, light emission control unit 106, motion detection unit 107, motion detection permission acquisition unit 108, and control unit 109 of the event terminal 10 may be composed of a processing unit such as a CPU (central processing unit) or a dedicated electronic circuit. Furthermore, the communication unit 202 and the control unit 205 of the terminal device 20 may be configured, for example, as a processing device such as a CPU or a dedicated electronic circuit. In addition, the communication unit 302, recorded data acquisition unit 304, content extraction unit 305, content transmission unit 306, performance control unit 307, injection control unit 308, and control unit 309 of the event management server 30 may be composed of a processing device such as a CPU or a dedicated electronic circuit.

[0041] Next, the operation of the above-mentioned event management system S will be described. FIG. 9 is a flowchart illustrating the operation of the event terminal 10. The visitor registers the event terminal 10 and the terminal device 20 as communication partners. In addition, the visitor memorizes the contents of the charge registration data before participating in the event. For example, the visitor memorizes the relationship between the charge unit, the registration operation, and the emitted light color. The visitor then brings the event terminal 10 and the terminal device 20 with him or her to the event venue. When an event starts at the event venue and a performer starts playing a song, attendees turn on the power of event terminal 10, light up light-emitting unit 103, and hold and shake event terminal 10 to enjoy themselves. The control unit 109 of the event terminal 10 determines whether or not a charging period start signal indicating the start of a charging period has been received from the event management server 30 (step S101). The control unit 109 may wirelessly receive the charging period start signal from the event management server 30 via the network NW using the communication unit 102, or may receive the signal from the terminal device 20 in response to the terminal device 20 receiving the signal from the event management server 30 via the network NW.

[0042] When the control unit 109 determines that the charging period start signal has not been received (step S101-NO), the light emission control unit 106 causes the light emitting unit 103 to emit light in the normal color. The normal color is a predetermined color, and may be, for example, white. In this case, the charging period start signal has not been received for any of the event terminals 10 held by visitors to the event venue, so the light emitted by all of the event terminals 10 is white. Then, after a predetermined wait time has elapsed, the control unit 109 transitions to the process of step S101 again.

[0043] On the other hand, when the control unit 109 determines that the charging period start signal has been received (step S101-YES), it accepts a selection input of a charging level (step S102). The performer may explain to the visitors that the charging period has started, or the visitors may be notified by displaying a message on a monitor or the like installed near the stage. In addition, the light emitting unit 103 of the event terminal 10 may be caused to emit light in a light emitting pattern indicating that the charging period has started (for example, lighting up three times in the order of white, green, blue, yellow, and red). Data on such a light emitting pattern may be stored in the storage unit 101 in advance, or may be received from the event management server 30 together with the charging period start signal.

[0044] The selection unit 105 judges whether or not a button operation has been input from the input unit 104 (step S103). If it is judged that a button operation has not been input, the light emission control unit 106 causes the light emitting unit 103 to emit light in a normal color. If the same color is specified as the normal color before and after the charging period start signal is received, the light emitting unit 103 maintains the white light emission since the white light emission was caused in step S101. If a color different from the color before the charging period start signal is specified as the normal color after the charging period start signal is received, the light emitting unit 103 may emit light in the specified color (e.g., purple). In this embodiment, a case where the normal color after the charging period start signal is received is white will be described. Moreover, data specifying the normal color after the charging period start signal is received may be received from the event management server 30 together with the charging period start signal, or may be stored in the storage unit 101 in advance. After a certain wait time has elapsed, the control unit 109 shifts the process to step S107.

[0045] On the other hand, when it is determined that a button operation has been input, the selection unit 105 accepts an input to select a charging level based on the operation input from the visitor (step S104). For example, each time the operation button of the input unit 104 is pressed, the charging level is switched in sequence from 0 to 5, and when the operation button is pressed again with charging level 5 selected, the charging level is returned to 0, and an input to select one of the charging levels is accepted. For example, when the operation button is pressed three times, charging level "3" is selected. When the charge level is selected, the light emission control unit 106 causes the light emitting unit 103 to emit light in a color corresponding to the selected charge level based on the operation content (step S105). A visitor can select a charge level by pressing an operation button on the event terminal 10 that he or she holds, and can confirm which charge level is currently selected by visually checking the color emitted from the light-emitting unit 103. By pressing the operation button until the color corresponding to the charge level for which the visitor is about to be charged is emitted, the visitor can select the charge level while checking whether the selected charge level is the one that the visitor prefers.

[0046] Next, the control unit 109 judges whether or not the decision button of the input unit 104 has been pressed (step S106). If the control unit 109 judges that the decision button has been pressed, the control unit 109 shifts the process to step S109. If the control unit 109 judges that the decision button has not been pressed, the control unit 109 judges whether or not the selection possible time has arrived (step S107). The selection possible time may be, for example, a predetermined period from the acquisition of a charging period start signal to the end of the charging period. Then, if the selection possible time has not arrived (step S107-NO), the control unit 109 shifts the process to step S103, and if the selection possible time has arrived (step S107-NO), the control unit 109 maintains the light emission in a color according to the selected charging level (step S108). For example, when the charging level "3" is selected, the light emission control unit 106 causes the light emitting unit 103 to emit light in yellow. Here, since the event terminal 10 emits yellow light, it is possible for the other visitors and performers to know that the visitor holding the event terminal 10 intends to charge at charging level "3". In addition, each visitor can not only confirm his / her own charging level by the color emitted by his / her own event terminal 10, but also know which charging level other visitors at the event venue have selected based on the color emitted by the event terminals 10 held by the other visitors. Also, it is enjoyable to know where and how many visitors are in the venue who have a higher charging level than the visitor selected. Also, when the visitor knows that his / her own charging level is set higher than the other visitors, he / she can feel a sense of superiority.

[0047] In addition, performers can look out over the visitors from the stage or the like and check the light color of the event terminal 10 held by each visitor, thereby determining where in the venue the visitors who have selected which charging level are located, how many of them there are, etc.

[0048] At this time, the performer can identify the location of the visitor who has selected the selected charging level based on the location where the event terminal 10 is emitting light, and provide fan service or appeal to the visitor at that location, such as turning his / her face or waving. For example, the performer can provide fan service or appeal to the visitor by increasing the time he / she faces the location of the visitor holding the event terminal 10 with the highest luminous color, increasing the number of times he / she waves his / her hand, or calling out to the visitor through a microphone. Visitors can receive fan service or appeal from the performer, and can decide how much they actually want to charge. When the charge level "0" is selected, or when no operational input is made to select a charge level, the light is emitted in white.

[0049] Next, the movement detection unit 107 detects a change in the attitude of the event terminal 10, thereby detecting the movement of the attendee holding the event terminal 10 (step S109). If no motion is detected (step S109-NO), the motion detection unit 107 executes the process of step S109 again after a certain waiting time has elapsed.

[0050] On the other hand, when a motion is detected (step S109-YES), the motion detection unit 107 judges whether or not the detected motion satisfies the condition of the registered motion associated with the currently selected charging level (step S110). For example, when the currently selected charging level is "3", the motion detection unit 107 uses "shake 12 times" as the condition for the registered motion, and judges whether or not the detected motion is a motion of shaking the event terminal 10 and the number of shakes has reached 12, thereby judging whether or not the condition of the registered motion is satisfied.

[0051] Here, when a visitor wishes to make a payment during an event, he or she only needs to perform an action corresponding to the registration action while holding the event terminal 10, and the unit of payment can be selected according to the payment level. As a result, in order to make a payment, it is only necessary to perform an action such as shaking the event terminal 10, and it is not necessary to take out a different device such as a smartphone or tablet during the event and operate it while looking at the screen of the device. Therefore, even when making a payment, it is only necessary to shake the event terminal 10 while watching the music, singing, dancing, performance, etc. performed by the performers, and it is possible to watch the event with your head up without moving your gaze from the object you are watching to the device. Here, if you take out a smartphone or the like and perform an operation to make a payment during a performance at an event, people around you may not be able to concentrate on the event because they may see actions that are different from the excitement of the event or the music. However, in this embodiment, the action to make a payment itself is also an action to liven up the event space, so there is an advantage that the action to make a payment leads to livening up the venue from the perspective of the performers and other spectators. In addition, because billing can be done by shaking the event terminal 10, shaking the event terminal 10 to the rhythm of the music is not only an action to liven up the event, but also an action to make a payment, so that billing can be done while enjoying the performers' performance. This creates a sense of unity between the visitors and the performers even when billing is being done.

[0052] When the control unit 109 determines that the action performed by the attendee while holding the event terminal 10 satisfies the condition of the registered action (step S110-YES), for example when a shaking action 12 times is detected, it transmits an instruction to the terminal device 20 via the communication unit 102 to execute charging according to the selected charging level (step S111). The terminal device 20 transmits an instruction to execute charging of charging level "3" (charging instruction) to the event management server 30 via the network NW together with the attendee identification information. Based on the instruction to execute charging, the event management server 30 executes charging of "50 yen" for charging level "3" in association with the attendee identification information, and stores it in the charging data in the storage unit 301. On the other hand, if the control unit 109 does not detect an action that satisfies the condition for the registered action in step S110, the control unit 109 shifts the process to step S113.

[0053] On the other hand, when an instruction to execute charging is transmitted, the light emission control unit 106 causes the light emission unit 103 to emit light in a light emission pattern (charging light emission pattern) corresponding to the completion of charging (step S112). For example, the light emission control unit 106 emits light in yellow corresponding to the selected charging level "3", and causes the light to flow from the end on the connecting unit 112 side to the tip by turning on the light sources in sequence from the end on the connecting unit 112 side to the tip based on the charging light emission pattern. This allows the person holding the event terminal 10, other visitors, and performers to know that charging at charging level "3" has been executed by visually recognizing the light emission pattern and its color corresponding to the completion of charging. Also, some visitors may be willing to pay a lot. Such visitors can let the surrounding visitors know that they are willing to pay a lot by the illumination status of the event terminal 10, and can let the surrounding visitors know how enthusiastic they are about the performer.

[0054] Then, by checking the position of the event terminal 10 that has illuminated in the charged illumination pattern, the performer can identify the position of the visitor holding that event terminal 10, and can provide fan service or appeal to the visitor at that position by turning his / her face, waving, etc. Also, by finding an event terminal 10 that has illuminated in a color with a higher charge level and in accordance with the charged illumination pattern, the performer can easily find the location of the visitor, and can therefore provide fan service such as calling out to the visitor via a microphone, or throw a prize prepared in advance into the location of the visitor. Visitors can receive the prizes that have been thrown in. There is a possibility that the performer may not be able to throw the prize accurately to the intended visitor, or may fail to catch the prize that was thrown to them, meaning that they will not be able to receive it. However, by letting the performer know that a fee has been paid, there is a possibility that the performer will target them among the many visitors in the venue when throwing the prize, so this can provide a new meaning to paying a fee. In addition, since the charge level can be ascertained from the color emitted by the event terminal 10, visitors and performers can grasp the charge status of visitors at the event venue by visually checking the event terminal 10 which is emitting light in a color indicating a higher charge level and in a charge light pattern. Also, based on the color emitted, visitors with higher charge levels can be found, which provides a fun way to find out which visitor is "paying a lot."

[0055] Next, the control unit 109 of the event terminal 10 determines whether or not the charging period end time indicating the end of the charging period has arrived (step S113). Here, it may be determined that the charging period end time has arrived by receiving a charging period end signal indicating the end of the charging period from the event management server 30, or it may be determined that the charging period end time has arrived by receiving data indicating the charging period end time together with the charging period start signal, and determining the end of the charging period based on this data. If the control unit 109 determines that the charging period end time has arrived (step S113-YES), it ends the process, and if it determines that the charging period end time has not arrived (step S113-NO), it transitions the process to step S109. Here, by transitioning the process to step S109, even a visitor who has been charged once can be charged multiple times by continuously performing actions that satisfy the conditions of the registered actions.

[0056] FIG. 10 is a flowchart illustrating the operation of the event management server 30. When the event starts, camera C captures images of the event venue and transmits the captured images to event management server 30. Sound collection device M collects sounds in the event venue and transmits the collected sound data to event management server 30. Recorded data acquisition unit 304 of event management server 30 stores the captured images obtained from camera C in storage unit 301, and also stores the collected sound data collected by sound collection device M in storage unit 301 (step S200). The control unit 309 of the event management server 30 determines whether or not a charging period has started (step S201). The charging period may be a specific period during an event, and may be, for example, a period from the start to the end of a performance of a predetermined song among a plurality of songs played during the event, a specific part of a predetermined song, or the period during which a specific performance is being performed. The start and end of the charging period may be determined based on, for example, the detection of a specific sound used for synchronizing the synchronous performance of songs played at the event.

[0057] When the control unit 309 determines that the charging period has not started (step S201-NO), it executes step S201 again after a predetermined wait period has elapsed. On the other hand, when the control unit 309 determines that the charging period has started (step S201-YES), it transmits a charging start signal to each terminal device 20 (or the event terminal 10) via the network NW (step S202).

[0058] Next, the billing details acquisition unit 303 determines whether or not a billing instruction has been received from the terminal device 20 (step S203). When the billing instruction is received via the communication unit 302, the billing content acquisition unit 303 executes billing processing based on the billing instruction (step S204). Here, the billing content acquisition unit 303 executes billing of "50 yen" for billing level "3" in association with the visitor identification information based on the visitor identification information and the billing level (e.g., billing level "3") included in the received billing instruction, and stores this in the billing data in the storage unit 301. Here, the billing content acquisition unit 303 also stores the name of the song being played at the time the billing processing was executed, together with the visitor identification information and the billing amount. On the other hand, if the billing instruction has not been received, billing details acquisition section 303 moves the process to step S205.

[0059] The control unit 309 determines whether the charging period has ended (step S205). If the charging period has not ended (step S205-NO), the control unit 309 transitions the process to step S203, and if the charging period has ended, the control unit 309 tallies up the total charging amount. For example, the total charging amount is tallied for each visitor identification information. Here, if one visitor has made multiple charges, the total amount is calculated. Also, even if one visitor has made a charge at charging level "1" in one charging period and a charge at charging level "5" in the next charging period, the total amount can be calculated. Then, when the control unit 309 calculates the total amount for each attendee, it identifies the seat for which the tape is to be ejected by the tape ejection device T based on the total amount (step S207). For example, it may be identified by extracting the attendee identification information of the one attendee who was charged the highest total amount, and extracting the seat number in the event venue that corresponds to that attendee identification information.

[0060] Alternatively, adjacent seats may be treated as a group, and the total charges for the group may be calculated by adding up the total charges for each attendee belonging to that group, and the seat number of the group may be extracted by extracting the group with the highest total charge. Here, an event may be attended by a single person, or may be attended by a group of acquaintances who sit in adjacent seats. Therefore, the total amount for an individual may be used, or the total amount for the group may be used. Also, by extracting an area of ​​seats where visitors who have paid high total charges gather, the seats belonging to that area may be identified.

[0061] The ejection control unit 308 selects the type of tape to be ejected according to the total charge for the extracted seat (step S208). For example, the ejection control unit 308 stores data that associates the charge with the type of tape, and by referring to this data, reads out the type of tape corresponding to the total charge for the extracted seat. The type of tape can be, for example, the color of the tape (gold, silver, red, blue, etc.) or the design printed on the tape (character string, illustration, etc.).

[0062] Next, the ejection control unit 308 changes the ejection direction of the tape ejection device so that the tape falls at the specified seat position (step S209). The ejection direction may be the horizontal angle and the vertical angle of the ejection. Then, when the ejection timing arrives, the ejection control unit 308 ejects the tape of the type to be ejected from the tape ejection device T (step S210). The ejection timing may be a specific timing of the song being played, or may be a timing when an ejection command is input from an input device such as a remote control operated by a performer or event staff.

[0063] This tape ejection may occur once during the event, or may occur multiple times so that different types of tape are ejected for each different seat according to the amount charged. Here, different types of tapes may be used at each event venue. That is, some tapes (including those with the date, the venue name, or a design specific to the event) are only released at events held at specific venues, so visitors can participate in the event, acquire tapes, and enjoy collecting various types of tapes. Also, visitors who acquire tapes may cut up some of the tapes at the event venue and give them to acquaintances who attended the same event. For this reason, many visitors want to collect tapes. Therefore, it is possible to provide another meaning in that it is not just a matter of charging the performers, but also to increase the possibility of acquiring tapes and to enjoy collecting tapes. Also, even visitors who do not pay much can enjoy seeing what type of tape is shot in the event of that day, and when a special type of tape is shot, they can have the experience of participating in the event on the day the special tape is shot.

[0064] When the event ends, when the visitor leaves the event venue, the visitor brings the terminal device 20 close to the visitor identification information acquisition device R installed at the gate to read the visitor identification information. The visitor identification information acquisition device R acquires the visitor identification information by reading it from the terminal device 20 that the visitor brings close to when leaving the event venue (step S211).

[0065] The performance control unit 307 reads out the total charge amount according to the read-out visitor identification information, and drives the performance device E installed at the gate according to the read-out total charge amount (step S212). The performance control unit 307 performs a performance, for example, by emitting light in a color and light pattern according to the total charge amount and emitting a sound from a speaker according to the total charge amount. For example, for a certain visitor, a light source is lit in white and a certain sound effect is emitted from the speaker, but when a visitor who has paid a higher total charge amount leaves the venue, the light source is lit in a number of different colors, and together with the sound effect, a voice message such as "Thank you very much! See you again!" is emitted in the performer's voice. This allows a visitor to receive a special performance according to the total amount charged when leaving the event venue. Therefore, not only can a visitor receive a special performance according to the amount charged when leaving the venue, but the visitor can also let the people around them know that they are a visitor who has charged a higher amount.

[0066] Content extraction unit 305 refers to the billing data stored in storage unit 301, and extracts content from storage unit 301 based on the billing amount and song title (step S212). For example, when the total amount of billing charges during a certain billing period reaches a certain amount, content extraction unit 305 extracts a song corresponding to that billing period from the content stored in storage unit 301.

[0067] The content transmission unit 306 distributes the extracted content to the terminal device 20 corresponding to the visitor identification information (step S212). This allows the visitor to obtain the content containing the song at the time when the visitor paid. The songs played at the event may be recorded on DVDs (Digital Versatile Discs) and sold, but if the event is held multiple times, the recording venue may be determined in advance, and not all events are necessarily distributed as DVDs. Therefore, by being able to obtain content according to a fee, it is possible to receive content according to the charging situation, and therefore it is possible to obtain live sound sources recorded at events that are not distributed on DVDs or the like. This allows the visitor to make the performer happy by paying a fee, but also to find a new meaning in paying a fee.

[0068] FIG. 11 is a diagram for explaining the entire event management system S. According to the embodiment described above, the charging status can be visualized by the light emission status of the event terminal 10, and the performer can understand it without checking it on a display screen such as a monitor that displays the charging status (FIG. 11, reference numeral 500). Therefore, the performer can understand the charging status in real time while directing his / her gaze toward the visitors, without shifting his / her gaze to a special monitor. Therefore, it is easy to understand the charging status. In addition, not only can the charging status be known based on the light emission status of the event terminal 10, but the lighting status and the way the event terminal is moved can also be used to create a performance at the event venue. The charging status may be displayed on a monitor, and the performer may visually check the display screen as necessary. In this case, the past charging history can also be confirmed. Furthermore, the billing status can be checked not only by the performers but by both the performers and attendees.

[0069] In the above embodiment, the content is transmitted to the terminal device 20, but the content may be transmitted to the event terminal 10. In this case, the event terminal 10 may emit light according to the received content. For example, the event terminal 10 may blink in accordance with a specific sound signal (for example, drum rhythm) included in the content. This allows the light-emitting unit 103 to emit light in a blinking pattern according to the content played in the live performance that the visitor actually watched. Therefore, even after watching the live performance, the visitor can enjoy the light-emitting pattern by making the light-emitting unit blink in accordance with the drum rhythm played by the performer. Also, a song played in a live performance may be played only once, and even the same song may be played in a different way depending on the day, so that the visitor can enjoy collecting the light-emitting patterns themselves, which can provide a new reason for paying a fee to the visitor.

[0070] Furthermore, according to the embodiment described above, by paying a fee, the light emitting unit of the event terminal 10 can be made to emit light in a manner different from that when no fee is charged (FIG. 11, reference numerals 510 and 511). This allows a plurality of visitors to individually perform effects at the event venue in response to the fee, thereby enabling the entire event venue to be produced.

[0071] Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, only one charging period may be set for one event, or multiple periods may be set for one event.

[0072] In the above embodiment, the production device E performs the production when the visitor leaves the venue, but it may perform the production when the visitor enters the venue. In this case, the event management server 30 may store the total amount charged for each visitor at past events in which the same performer has appeared, and the production may be performed using light and sound according to the total amount charged. This allows surrounding visitors to know that a visitor who has a high level of spending has arrived. Also, the visitor who has a high level of spending can let others know that they have a high level of spending.

[0073] In the above embodiment, the charging level is selected according to the number of times the operation button of the input unit of the event terminal 10 is pressed. However, the charging level may be selected according to the number of times the operation button of the input unit of the event terminal 10 is pressed by shaking the event terminal 10. In addition, the charging level may be selected according to the number of times the event terminal 10 is shaken in a predetermined period (e.g., 3 seconds) in a state where the operation button of the input unit of the event terminal 10 is pressed, and when the target charging level is reached, the operation button may be released. For example, in order to increase the charging level, it is necessary to shake the event terminal 10 more times in a predetermined period, but by shaking the event terminal 10 more times, it is possible to inform surrounding visitors and performers that the charging level is to be increased, and shaking the event terminal 10 more times can also liven up the event.

[0074] In the above-described embodiment, the action for charging is accepted during the charging period (reference numeral 530 in FIG. 11). As a result, if charging is accepted by simply shaking the event terminal 10, a charge will be incurred when the user shakes the event terminal 10 simply to enjoy the music (event), and the user may become conscious of the charge and thus find it difficult to enjoy the event. Therefore, by providing a charging period, the user can enjoy the event by shaking the event terminal 10 outside the charging period without being conscious of the charge.

[0075] In the above-described embodiment, a charge is made when a registration action is detected (reference number 530 in FIG. 11). This allows the event terminal 10 to be held and moved without being charged if the action is not a registration action, even during the charging period, so that the event terminal 10 can be moved in a manner that is not a registration action to enjoy the event. The performer can grasp the charge level by seeing the light emitted in a color according to the charging level, and even if a movement that is not a registration action is made, it is possible to tell whether or not a charge has actually been made based on whether or not the light is lit in the charging light-emitting pattern.

[0076] Also, according to the above-described embodiment, in the registration operation, in addition to the operation of shaking the event terminal 1, it is possible to register the operation patterns A, B, etc. As a result, for example, the charging period can be set to the chorus part of a specific song, and the operation patterns A, B, etc. can be set for that part. Here, for the operation patterns A, B, etc., an operation pattern corresponding to a specific movement for that song is set. For example, if the performer is an idol, the operation pattern may be a dance performed using the body to support the idol. As a result, when the chorus of a specific song arrives, a visitor who wants to pay can perform a dance to support the performer by performing a specific movement, and the visitor and other visitors can understand that the visitor has also paid. Visitors who do not want to pay can get excited by normal arm shaking, etc.

[0077] Such billing registration data may be registered with different contents for each billing period, so that different operation patterns can be set for the fifth and eighth songs. Furthermore, when a group of attendees seated adjacent to one another perform the same motion pattern required for charging, both the performers and other spectators can see that charging is being done on a group basis and can also tell that the group is enjoying themselves.

[0078] In the above embodiment, the charge registration data is predetermined, but the visitor may set it in advance (see reference numeral 520 in FIG. 11). For example, in the pre-registered charge registration data, the registered action for charge level "3" is registered as "shake 12 times", but the visitor may change the registered action to "shake 5 times", "shake 15 times", etc., by performing a change operation via his / her own terminal device 20. Also, a charge upper limit amount may be set for the charge registration data. This makes it possible to prevent the event management server 30 from charging more than the charge upper limit amount even if the registration action is performed and the charge upper limit amount has been reached.

[0079] In the above-mentioned embodiment, the method of accepting the charge is described by taking as an example the case where the charge is accepted during the charging period or when the chargeable registration action is performed. However, the motion detection permission acquisition unit 108 may accept an instruction as to whether or not to permit motion detection based on an operation input of a visitor input from the input unit 104. In this case, the charging process may be performed when a registration action is performed while an instruction to permit motion detection is input from the operation button of the input unit 104 (for example, while the operation button is pressed). Alternatively, the charging process may not be performed even if a registration action is performed while an instruction to prohibit motion detection is input from the operation button of the input unit 104 (for example, while the operation button indicating prohibition is pressed). In this way, it is possible to decide according to the visitor's will so that unnecessary charges are not incurred. Here, when no charge is incurred, the visitor can liven up the event venue by performing a registration action, and the performer and the surrounding visitors can feel the excitement while also being able to identify that no charge has been incurred by not lighting up with the charging light emission pattern.

[0080] In the above-mentioned embodiment, the event manager may collect the billing information from the event management server 30 and check the billing status using a terminal device or the like (FIG. 11, reference number 540). Then, the event production may be changed by controlling the lighting equipment, audio equipment, and a projection device that projects an image onto a screen on the stage in the event venue in response to an instruction input from the terminal device used by the manager (FIG. 11, reference number 550). Also, various information according to the billing status input from the terminal device used by the manager may be shared with the monitor headphones worn by the performers or the monitor device installed on the stage (FIG. 11, reference number 560). This allows the manager to give advice to the performers on fan service and how to appeal in accordance with the billing status.

[0081] The charging status may also be shared with attendees by transmitting it from the event management server 30 to the terminal device 20. For example, attendees can use the terminal device 20 during waiting times between songs to check the charging status of attendees with the highest charging records at the event venue, or their own charging status. In this case, the terminal device 20 may display a charging ranking based on the charging status, or display the attendee's own charging history, number of charges, total charged amount, etc.

[0082] In the above-mentioned embodiment, the communication unit 102, the selection unit 105, the light emission control unit 106, the motion detection unit 107, the motion detection permission acquisition unit 108, and the control unit 109 of the event terminal 10 may be realized by a computer. Also, the communication unit 202 and the control unit 205 of the terminal device 20 may be realized by a computer. Also, the communication unit 302, the recorded data acquisition unit 304, the content extraction unit 305, the content transmission unit 306, the performance control unit 307, the ejection control unit 308, and the control unit 309 of the event management server 30 may be realized by a computer. When these are realized by a computer, a program for realizing the functions may be recorded in a computer-readable recording medium, and the program recorded in the recording medium may be read into a computer system and executed to realize the functions. Note that the "computer system" here includes hardware such as an OS and peripheral devices. Also, the "computer-readable recording medium" refers to a portable medium such as a flexible disk, a magneto-optical disk, a ROM, a CD-ROM, and a storage device such as a hard disk built into a computer system. Furthermore, the term "computer-readable recording medium" may include a medium that dynamically holds a program for a short period of time, such as a communication line when transmitting a program via a network such as the Internet or a communication line such as a telephone line, and a medium that holds a program for a certain period of time, such as a volatile memory inside a computer system that serves as a server or client in such a case. The above program may be one for implementing part of the above-mentioned functions, or may be one that can realize the above-mentioned functions in combination with a program already recorded in the computer system, or may be one that is realized using a programmable logic device such as an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array).
