Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a health improvement support device, a health improvement support method, and a program. [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, an increasing number of people are wearing wearable devices that can collect vital signs. Furthermore, various services (e.g., relaxation) aimed at improving health are being offered by various businesses. However, in many cases, the information collected by wearable devices in daily life that indicates a user's health status is not directly linked to actions to improve the user's health, and is merely used to help users recognize their own health status.

[0003] Patent document 1 describes a service providing device that acquires health data indicating a user's health condition and, if the health data judgment criteria are met, determines whether to provide a service to the user based on the user's personality. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 7286036 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] In the technology of Patent Document 1, it is easier to determine that a service will be provided if the user's personality is such that the user feels comfortable receiving the service. However, in the technology of Patent Document 1, it cannot be said that information representing the user's health condition necessarily leads to actions to improve the user's condition.

[0006] One of the purposes of the present disclosure is to provide a health improvement support device, a health improvement support method, a program, etc. that can support a user in taking actions to improve their condition, which are estimated from data obtained from the user.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0013] First Embodiment A first embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0014] <Configuration> The configuration of the first embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0015] FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of a health improvement support device according to the present disclosure.

[0016] Hereinafter, the configuration of the health improvement support device according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

[0017] In the example shown in FIG. 1, the health improvement support device 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure includes a measurement result acquisition unit 110, a psychological test unit 120, a service determination unit 150, and a provision unit 170.

[0018] <Measurement result acquisition unit 110> The measurement result acquisition unit 110 acquires the results of the measurement of the subject by the sensor.

[0019] <Psychological Test Section 120> The psychological test unit 120 acquires the subject's answers to questions in the psychological test.

[0020] <Service Determination Unit 150> The service determination unit 150 determines a service from a target health state, which is the health state of the subject determined from the measurement results, and a target psychological state, which is the psychological state of the subject determined from the answers, using the mental and physical condition service relationship. The mental and physical condition service relationship is a relationship between a health state and a psychological state and a service that improves the health state and the psychological state.

[0021] <Provider section 170> The providing unit 170 provides information on incentives related to the recommended service, which is the determined service.

[0022] <Details> The sensor is one or more sensors mounted on a wearable terminal (in other words, a wearable device) worn by the subject. The result of the measurement is, for example, vital data of the subject. The vital data is, for example, at least a part of the heart rate, sweating state, sleep state, etc. In this case, the sensor includes a sensor that performs measurements to obtain the vital data to be used, from vital data such as the heart rate, sweating state, sleep state, etc. The vital data is not limited to these examples. The vital data may include blood pressure data, etc. The vital data may not include these data. The result of the measurement is, for example, vital data measured of the subject periodically at predetermined time intervals while the subject is wearing the wearable terminal. The subject may always wear the wearable terminal.

[0023] The psychological test is a psychological test that is appropriately determined and used to estimate a psychological state. The psychological test is a test that includes one or more questions that are appropriately determined so that a psychological state can be estimated from the answers. The psychological test may be a test that asks for answers to multiple questions (for example, one answer selected from multiple options for each of multiple questions). The psychological test may be a test used for a general stress check.

[0024] The health condition is, for example, information representing stress. The information representing stress is information representing the intensity of stress. The information representing stress may include information representing the length of time exposed to stress. The health condition may also include other health-related information.

[0025] The psychological state may be, for example, information indicating whether the subject's stress is good stress or bad stress. The psychological state may be information indicating whether the subject perceives the stress they are experiencing as good stress or bad stress. Good stress, for example, is stress that leads to improvements in motivation, mood, actual performance, etc. Bad stress, for example, is stress that leads to mental and physical discomfort or a decline in performance, rather than improvements in motivation, mood, actual performance, etc. The psychological state may be expressed by whether the stressed subject is in a state in which motivation, mood, actual performance, etc. improves (a state of good stress), or in a state in which mental and physical discomfort occurs or performance declines (a state of bad stress). Good stress and bad stress may be defined as appropriate. The psychological state is not limited to this example. The psychological state may include, for example, information indicating whether the subject is motivated or unmotivated.

[0026] In this embodiment, the combination of health state and psychological state is also referred to as mental and physical state. A good mental and physical state is a state in which a person is under moderately strong good stress. Moderate stress, for example, is a state in which the stress intensity is equal to or less than a first standard and equal to or greater than a second standard that represents a weaker strength than the first standard. A bad mental and physical state is a state in which a person is under bad stress, a state in which a person is under good stress but the stress intensity is stronger than a predetermined first standard, or a state in which a person is under good stress but the stress intensity is weaker than a predetermined second standard.

[0027] The mental and physical condition service relationship is information that includes, for various mental and physical conditions, combinations of mental and physical conditions, which are combinations of health and psychological states, with services that can bring that mental and physical state closer to a state of moderately strong, good stress (hereinafter referred to as an appropriate mental and physical state). A service that can bring a mental and physical state closer to a state of moderately strong, good stress is a service that has been experimentally proven in advance to tend to bring a person's mental and physical state closer to an appropriate mental and physical state when the person receives the service when they are in that mental and physical state.

[0028] Examples of services include massage, spa, gym, yoga class, Pilates class, dance class, travel, rehabilitation services, healthy meal delivery, sleep aids, and free samples of products offered by the service. Services are not limited to these examples. Services do not necessarily have to include these examples.

[0029] In this embodiment, incentives may be predetermined for each service. Incentive information is data that can be used to reduce the fee for using the service. Incentive information is data that can be used to cover at least a portion of the fee for using the service or to provide a discount on the fee for using the service. Incentive information is, for example, data on discount vouchers for the service, data on coupons for the service, data on points that can be used for the service, etc. If the service is provided by subscription, the incentive may be that the first service is provided free of charge. If the service is provided by subscription, the incentive information may be data on the right to receive the first service free of charge.

[0030] The providing unit 170 provides the incentive information to an information processing device that is predetermined as a device used by the subject. The providing unit 170 may also provide the incentive information to a wearable device worn by the subject.

[0031] <Operation> Next, the operation of the health improvement support device 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0032] FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing the operation of the health improvement support device according to the present disclosure.

[0033] Hereinafter, the operation of the health improvement support device 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

[0034] In the example shown in Fig. 2, first, the measurement result acquisition unit 110 acquires the results of the measurement of the subject by the sensor (step S11). The psychological test unit 120 acquires the subject's answers to the psychological test questions (step S12). The service determination unit 150 determines a recommended service based on the target health state, which is the subject's health state determined from the measurement results, and the target psychological state, which is the subject's psychological state determined from the answers, using the relationship between the health state and the psychological state and the service (step S13). The provision unit 170 provides incentive information related to the recommended service (step S14).

[0035] <Effects> The present embodiment has an effect of being able to support the user in taking actions to improve the user's condition, which are estimated from data acquired from the user.

[0036] This is because the service determination unit 150 determines the recommended service based on the target health state, which is the subject's health state determined from the measurement results, and the target psychological state, which is the subject's psychological state determined from the responses, using the relationship between the health state and psychological state and the service, and the provision unit 170 provides incentive information related to the recommended service.

[0037] <Second embodiment> Next, a second embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0038] <Configuration> First, the configuration of the second embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0039] FIG. 3 is a block diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of a health improvement support system according to the present disclosure.

[0040] Hereinafter, the configuration of the health improvement support system according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

[0041] In the example shown in FIG. 3, the health improvement support system 1 includes a health improvement support apparatus 100 and a wearable device 200, which are communicably connected to each other via a communication network 300.

[0042] <Wearable device 200> The wearable terminal 200 includes a sensor 210 and a communication unit 220. The wearable terminal is, for example, a wearable terminal that can be worn by a subject person during daily life.

[0043] <Sensor 210> The sensor 210 is a sensor that measures the subject (i.e., a sensor that obtains vital data of the subject by measurement). The sensor 210 corresponds to the sensor in the first embodiment. The vital data is the same as the vital data of the first embodiment value.

[0044] <Communication Unit 220> The communication unit 220 transmits the measurement results (i.e., vital data) obtained by the measurement by the sensor 210 to the health improvement support apparatus 100 via the communication network 300. The wearable terminal 200 is any of various types of wearable devices that can be worn by the subject.

[0045] 3, the health improvement support system 1 includes a health improvement support device 100. The health improvement support system 1 may include a health improvement support device according to another embodiment or modification of the present disclosure, instead of the health improvement support device 100.

[0046] <Communication Network 300> The communication network 300 is a communication network realized by at least one of wired communication and wireless communication.

[0047] <100 health improvement support devices> FIG. 4 is a block diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of a health improvement support device according to the present disclosure.

[0048] Hereinafter, the configuration of the health improvement support device according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

[0049] In the example shown in Figure 4, the health improvement support device 100 includes a measurement result acquisition unit 110, a psychological test unit 120, a health state determination unit 130, a psychological state determination unit 140, a service determination unit 150, an incentive determination unit 160, and a provision unit 170.

[0050] <Measurement result acquisition unit 110> The measurement result acquisition unit 110 acquires the results of measurement of the subject by the sensor 210 of the wearable device 200. As described above, the sensor 210 measures the subject multiple times, for example, periodically. This allows the transition of the measurement results (in other words, the transition of the vital data) to be obtained. The measurement result acquisition unit 110 may acquire the transition of the measurement results.

[0051] The measurement result acquisition section 110 of this embodiment is the same as the measurement result acquisition section 110 of the first embodiment.

[0052] <Psychological Test Section 120> The psychological test section 120 acquires the subject's answers to questions in the psychological test.

[0053] The psychological test section 120 of this embodiment is the same as the psychological test section 120 of the first embodiment.

[0054] <Health condition determination unit 130> The health condition determination unit 130 determines the health condition of the subject from the measurement results (i.e., vital data) of the subject measured by the sensor, using the relationship between the measurement results and the health condition (hereinafter referred to as the measurement result-health condition relationship).

[0055] The measurement result-health condition relationship is information that represents the relationship between vital data values ​​such as heart rate, amount of sweating, and sleep state, and a value indicating the health condition (for example, a value indicating the level of stress). The measurement result-health condition relationship may be represented, for example, by a function that takes vital data as an argument and returns the health condition. The measurement result-health condition relationship may be represented by a lookup table. The value indicating the health condition may be determined as appropriate.

[0056] In the measurement result-health condition relationship, the health condition determination unit 130 may determine a value indicating the health condition of the subject when the value of the vital data (for example, when the vital data includes multiple types of data, a combination of multiple values) is a measured value. The health condition determination unit 130 may determine the determined value indicating the subject's health condition as information representing the health condition.

[0057] As described above, vital data is measured periodically, for example, at predetermined intervals. The health condition determination unit 130 may determine the subject's health condition for each of the values ​​of vital data measured multiple times. In other words, the health condition determination unit 130 may determine a transition in the health condition (in other words, a value indicating the health condition) from a transition in the vital data (specifically, the value of the vital data). The health condition determination unit 130 may determine the transition in the determined value of the health condition as the health condition (in other words, health condition information).

[0058] The health condition determining unit 130 may calculate an integrated value indicating the subject's health condition (e.g., an integrated value indicating the intensity of stress) as information representing the subject's health condition from the transition of the health condition value according to a predetermined method. In this case, the health condition determining unit 130 may, for example, obtain the integrated value indicating the subject's health condition (e.g., an integrated value indicating the intensity of stress) by dividing the product of the intensity of stress and the length of time the stress of that intensity is applied by the length of time the vital data is acquired. The health condition determining unit 130 uses such an integrated value as information representing the subject's health condition.

[0059] The method for determining the value representing the health condition is not limited to the above example. For example, the length of time during which stress of a predetermined intensity or greater is applied (or a value calculated from such length of time using a predetermined formula) may be used as the value representing the health condition of the subject.

[0060] <Mental State Determining Unit 140> The psychological state determination unit 140 determines the psychological state of the subject from the subject's answers to the psychological test using a psychological state determination method for determining the psychological state from the answers to the psychological test. As described above, the psychological state indicates whether the stress the subject is experiencing is judged to be bad stress or perceived as good stress.

[0061] The method for determining the psychological state may be any of a variety of existing methods for determining the level of stress that use responses to psychological tests to determine the level of stress.

[0062] <Service Determination Unit 150> The service determination unit 150 determines a service based on the target health state, which is the health state of the subject determined from the measurement results, and the target psychological state, which is the psychological state of the subject determined from the answers, using the mental and physical condition service relationship. The mental and physical condition service relationship is the relationship between the health state and the psychological state and the service that improves the health state and the psychological state.

[0063] The service determining unit 150 of this embodiment is the same as the service determining unit 150 of the first embodiment.

[0064] <Incentive Determination Unit 160> The incentive determination unit 160 determines the incentive so that the worse the physical and mental state determined from the health state and psychological state, the larger the amount of the incentive.

[0065] If the psychological state indicates that the subject is experiencing good stress, and the stress intensity indicated by the health state is within a predetermined range, the incentive determination unit 160 may determine that the subject's mental and physical state is good. In this case, the incentive determination unit 160 may set the amount of the incentive to a predetermined minimum amount.

[0066] When the psychological state indicates that the subject is under good stress and the strength of the stress indicated by the health state is greater than the upper limit of the appropriate range, the incentive determination unit 160 may determine that the greater the strength of the stress indicated by the health state is above the upper limit of the appropriate range, the worse the mental and physical state is. In this case, the incentive determination unit 160 may determine the amount of the incentive so that the greater the strength of the stress indicated by the health state is above the upper limit of the appropriate range, the greater the amount of the incentive is.

[0067] If the psychological state indicates that the subject is experiencing good stress and the intensity of stress indicated by the health state is lower than the lower limit of the appropriate range, the incentive determination unit 160 may determine that the subject's physical and mental state is normal. In this case, the incentive determination unit 160 may determine the amount of incentive to be a predetermined amount of incentive for a normal physical and mental state. The incentive determination unit 160 may treat a normal physical and mental state and a good physical and mental state in the same way. That is, the incentive determination unit 160 may determine the amount of incentive so that the amount of incentive for a normal physical and mental state is the same as the amount of incentive for a good physical and mental state. In other words, the amount of incentive for a normal physical and mental state may be predetermined to be the same as the amount of incentive for a good physical and mental state. The incentive determination unit 160 may treat a normal physical and mental state as a state lacking good stress compared to a good physical and mental state. That is, the incentive determination unit 160 may determine the amount of incentive so that the amount of incentive when the physical and mental state is normal is greater than the amount of incentive when the physical and mental state is good. In other words, the amount of incentive when the physical and mental state is normal may be predetermined to be greater than the amount of incentive when the physical and mental state is good.

[0068] If the psychological state indicates that the subject is under severe stress, the incentive determination unit 160 may determine that the worse the mental and physical state is, the stronger the stress indicated by the health state. In this case, the incentive determination unit 160 may determine the amount of incentive so that the greater the stress indicated by the health state, the greater the amount of incentive.

[0069] In these cases, for example, when the psychological state indicates that the subject is under negative stress, the mental and physical state may be represented by a value with a negative sign and a magnitude that represents the intensity of stress indicated by the health state. When the psychological state indicates that the subject is under positive stress, the mental and physical state may be represented by a value with a positive sign and a magnitude that represents the intensity of stress indicated by the health state. When the value of the mental and physical state is greater than the upper limit of the appropriate range, the incentive determination unit 160 may determine the amount of incentive so that the greater the difference between the value of the mental and physical state and the upper limit of the appropriate range, the greater the amount of incentive. When the value of the mental and physical state is smaller than the lower limit of the appropriate range, the incentive determination unit 160 may determine that the mental and physical state is normal. In this case, the incentive determination unit 160 may determine the amount of incentive to be a predetermined amount that is appropriate for a normal mental and physical state.

[0070] The incentive determination unit 160 may determine the amount of incentive so that the greater the rate of deterioration of the health condition (e.g., the magnitude of deterioration from the health condition determined from the measurement value at the immediately preceding timing) in the progression of the health condition, the greater the amount of incentive.

[0071] <Provider section 170> The providing unit 170 provides information on incentives related to the recommended service, which is the determined service.

[0072] The providing unit 170 of this embodiment is the same as the providing unit 170 of the first embodiment.

[0073] <Operation> Next, the operation of the second embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0074] FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the operation of the health improvement support device according to the present disclosure.

[0075] Hereinafter, the operation of the health improvement support apparatus 100 according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

[0076] In the example shown in FIG. 5, the measurement result acquisition unit 110 acquires the measurement results (step S101). The psychological test unit 120 conducts a psychological test (step S102). As a result, the psychological test unit 120 acquires the answers to the psychological test. The health state determination unit 130 determines the health state from the measurement results (step S103). The psychological state determination unit 140 determines the psychological state from the psychological test results (step S104). The service determination unit 150 determines a recommended service from the health state and psychological state (step S105). The incentive determination unit 160 determines an incentive from the health state and psychological state (step S106). Specifically, the incentive determination unit 160 determines the incentive so that the amount of incentive increases as the physical and mental state determined from the health state and psychological state becomes worse. The provision unit 170 provides information on the incentive for the recommended service (step S107).

[0077] <Effects> The present embodiment described above has the same effects as the first embodiment, for the same reasons as those for the effects of the first embodiment.

[0078] <First Modification of the Second Embodiment> In the above embodiment, the health state represents the intensity of stress, and the psychological state represents whether the stress is good stress or bad stress. However, the health state and the psychological state are not limited to these examples.

[0079] For example, the health condition may represent various conditions estimated using the results measured by the sensor 210 mounted on the wearable terminal 200.

[0080] The sensor 210 may include, for example, a radio wave sensor or an acceleration sensor that measures body movements. In this case, the vital data includes information on body movements. The health condition determination unit 130 may further determine whether the subject has insomnia based on the body movements measured by the sensor. In this case, the health condition includes information indicating whether the subject has insomnia. If it is determined that the subject has insomnia, the service determination unit 150 determines a service that can alleviate insomnia as a recommended service.

[0081] The sensor 210 may include a blood pressure sensor that measures blood pressure. In this case, the vital data includes, for example, information on the subject's blood pressure (e.g., information on changes in blood pressure). The health condition determination unit 130 may further determine whether the subject has high blood pressure from the blood pressure information. In this case, the health condition includes information indicating whether the subject has high blood pressure. If the subject is determined to have high blood pressure, the service determination unit 150 may determine, as a recommended service, a service for reducing obesity, which may cause high blood pressure. Note that the health condition determination unit 130 may further use the blood pressure information to determine the intensity of stress.

[0082] The sensor 210 may include an acceleration sensor. In this case, the vital data includes information on the acceleration of the subject's movements. The health condition determination unit 130 may further determine whether the subject is lacking in exercise from the acceleration information. In this case, the health condition includes information indicating whether the subject is lacking in exercise. If it is determined that the subject is lacking in exercise, the service determination unit 150 may determine a service for alleviating the lack of exercise (for example, a service involving exercise) as a recommended service.

[0083] The health condition determining section 130 may further determine whether the subject is lacking in exercise based on the information on blood pressure, heart rate, and acceleration. For example, if the measured blood pressure and heart rate satisfy the criterion for insufficient exercise for the exercise intensity estimated from the measured acceleration, the health condition determination unit 130 determines that the subject is insufficient. For example, if the measured blood pressure and heart rate do not satisfy the criterion for insufficient exercise for the exercise intensity estimated from the measured acceleration, the health condition determination unit 130 determines that the subject is not insufficient. The criterion for insufficient exercise may be, for example, that both the measured blood pressure and heart rate are higher than the respective standard values ​​for the subject's age at the exercise intensity estimated from the measured acceleration. The criterion for insufficient exercise may be, for example, that at least one of the measured blood pressure and heart rate is higher than the respective standard values ​​for the subject's age at the exercise intensity estimated from the measured acceleration.

[0084] Furthermore, the psychological state determination unit 140 may determine a psychological state that indicates another type of state that can be inferred from the answer to the psychological test in addition to the state of stress (i.e., whether the stress is bad stress or good stress). The psychological state determination unit 140 may determine a psychological state that indicates another type of state that can be inferred from the answer to the psychological test. The psychological test is designed so that the psychological state determination unit 140 can determine the psychological state.

[0085] Other types of psychological states (i.e., the above-mentioned other types of states) include, for example, whether or not one feels depressed, whether or not one feels irritated, whether or not one feels tired, whether or not one feels energized, whether or not one feels motivated, whether or not one feels physically unwell, etc. Psychological states are not limited to these examples.

[0086] <Second Modification of the Second Embodiment> In the above example, the psychological test includes a plurality of questions and a plurality of options for each of the plurality of questions, and the answer is one option (answer) selected from the plurality of options for each of the plurality of questions. The questions in the psychological test do not have to be simple questions.

[0087] The psychological test may be realized, for example, as a game in which a story progresses by selecting one option from multiple options at various scenes in the story. Such a game is designed to enable an estimation of a psychological state based on the selected option. Multiple options presented in each scene correspond to questions and options. The selected option corresponds to the answer.

[0088] The psychological test unit 120 conducts the psychological test by presenting multiple options as questions in a game scene and having the subject select one option. The psychological test unit 120 receives the selected option as the answer to the psychological test.

[0089] <Third Modification of Second Embodiment> The health condition determination unit 130 may be included in the wearable terminal 200. In this case, the measurement result acquisition unit 110 acquires the health condition (specifically, health condition information) determined by the health condition determination unit 130 included in the wearable terminal 200. The service determination unit 150 uses the acquired health condition and psychological state to determine a service.

[0090] <Fourth Modification of the Second Embodiment> The service determining unit 150 may further use the physical strength of the subject (specifically, information on the physical strength of the subject) to determine the recommended service.

[0091] Hereinafter, as a fourth modification of the second embodiment, an example in which recommended services are determined by further using physical strength will be described.

[0092] <Configuration> FIG. 6 is a block diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of a health improvement support device 101 according to the present disclosure.

[0093] In the example shown in Figure 6, the health improvement support device 101 includes a measurement result acquisition unit 110, a psychological test unit 120, a health state determination unit 130, a psychological state determination unit 140, a service determination unit 150, an incentive determination unit 160, a provision unit 170, and a physical fitness estimation unit 181.

[0094] The measurement result acquisition unit 110, psychological test unit 120, health state determination unit 130, psychological state determination unit 140, incentive determination unit 160, and provision unit 170 of this modified example are the same as the components with the same names and the same reference numerals in the second embodiment. The health improvement support device 101 of this modified example is the same as the health improvement support device 100 of the second embodiment, except for the differences described below.

[0095] <Physical strength estimation section 181> The physical strength estimation unit 181 estimates the physical strength of the subject from the results of measurement by the sensor 210.

[0096] For example, the physical fitness estimation unit 181 may estimate the intensity of the subject's exercise during which the acceleration information was obtained from acceleration information measured at predetermined time intervals. Then, for example, the physical fitness estimation unit 181 may estimate the duration (hereinafter also referred to as duration) of the subject's exercise when the acceleration information was measured from the measured acceleration information. The physical fitness estimation unit 181 may estimate the subject's physical fitness (e.g., the subject's level of physical fitness) from the estimated exercise intensity and duration. Note that the estimated physical fitness is not estimated from the results of measurements taken under specified exercise conditions. Furthermore, the measurement results are not necessarily obtained by measuring a subject exercising at full strength. However, the physical fitness of a subject who exercises less daily tends to decline. Furthermore, the physical fitness of a subject who exercises more daily tends to be maintained or improved. In this modification, the physical fitness estimation unit 181 estimates the subject's physical fitness such that the greater the amount of exercise determined by the intensity and duration of the exercise, the higher the subject's physical fitness.

[0097] <Service Determination Unit 150> The service determination unit 150 determines recommended services based on the health state, mental state, and physical strength of the subject, using the relationship between the health state, mental state, and physical strength and the services that can improve the health state and mental state.

[0098] The relationship between the health state, mental state, and physical strength and the service that can improve the health state and mental state is information that associates a combination of the values ​​of the health state, mental state, and physical strength with a service that can improve the health state and mental state of a subject whose state is represented by that combination. The service that can improve the health state and mental state of a subject is a service that has been experimentally determined in advance as a service that tends to improve the health state and mental state of the subject.

Health improvement support device 101 of this modification is the same as health improvement support device 101 of the fourth modification of the second embodiment, except for the differences described below.

[0109] <Physical fitness measurement section 180> The physical fitness measurement unit 180 measures the physical fitness of the subject by, for example, conducting a physical fitness measurement (in other words, a physical fitness test). The physical fitness measurement is a process of presenting instructions for an action to be taken by the subject and obtaining the results of the measurement of the subject measured in response to the presented instructions. In the physical fitness measurement, one or more actions may be defined as actions to be taken by the subject. The actions to be taken by the subject defined in the physical fitness test are actions in which the results of measurements of the subject during the action are used to estimate the subject's physical fitness. The actions defined in the physical fitness test may be actions for measuring physical ability in one or more categories, such as explosive power, endurance, cardiopulmonary function, and muscle strength.

[0110] <Physical strength estimation section 181> The physical strength estimation unit 181 estimates physical strength from the results of the physical strength measurement.

[0111] The physical strength estimation unit 181 estimates the level of physical ability in one or more items such as explosive power, endurance, cardiopulmonary function, and muscle strength from the results of the physical strength measurement.

[0112] <Service Determination Unit 150> The service determination unit 150 determines recommended services based on the health state, mental state, and physical strength of the subject, using the relationship between the health state, mental state, and physical strength and the services that can improve the health state and mental state.

[0113] The service determining unit 150 of this modification has the same functions as the service determining unit 150 of the fourth modification of the second embodiment.

[0114] <Service Determination Unit 150 and Incentive Determination Unit 160> When a physical fitness test is performed, the incentive determination unit 160 may increase, by a predetermined amount, the amount of incentive to be provided next after the physical fitness test.

[0115] When a physical fitness test is performed, the service determination unit 150 may determine a predetermined service as a service for which an incentive is to be provided to the subject.When a physical fitness test is performed, the incentive determination unit 160 may determine a predetermined amount of a predetermined incentive for a predetermined service as an incentive to be provided to the subject.

[0116] <Operation> 10 and 11 are flowcharts illustrating an example of the operation of the health improvement support device according to the present disclosure.

[0117] Hereinafter, the operation of the health improvement support device 102 according to the fifth modified example of the second embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to FIGS.

[0118] In the example shown in Fig. 10, the operations from step S101 to step S104 are the same as the operations from step S101 to step S104 of health improvement support device 100 according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure shown in Fig. 5. Health improvement support device 102 of this modified example performs the operation of step S301 after the operation of step S102. Furthermore, health improvement support device 102 of this modified example performs the operation of step S302 after the operation of step S104.

[0119] In step S301, the physical fitness measurement unit 180 carries out a physical fitness measurement (step S301).

[0120] In step S302, the physical strength estimation unit 181 estimates physical strength from the results of the physical strength measurement (step S302). Next, the health improvement supporting apparatus 102 performs the operation shown in FIG.

[0121] In step S205 of FIG. 11, the service determining unit 150 determines a recommended service based on the health state, mental state, and physical strength (step S305).

[0122] The operations in steps S106 and S107 shown in FIG. 11 are the same as the operations in steps S106 and S107 of health improvement support apparatus 100 according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure shown in FIG.

[0123] This modification can be applied to each embodiment of the present disclosure, and can be applied to the other modifications except for the fourth modification of the second embodiment.

[0124] <Sixth Modification of the Second Embodiment> This modification is an example in which a service is determined based on the behavioral tendencies of a target person.

[0125] FIG. 12 is a block diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of a health improvement support device according to the present disclosure.

[0126] Hereinafter, a health improvement support device 103 according to a sixth modified example of the second embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

[0127] 12, health improvement support device 103 includes a measurement result acquisition unit 110, a psychological test unit 120, a health state determination unit 130, a psychological state determination unit 140, a service determination unit 150, an incentive determination unit 160, a provision unit 170, and a behavioral tendency estimation unit 191. Health improvement support device 103 of this modification is the same as that of the second embodiment except for the differences described below.

[0128] <Behavioral tendency estimation section 191> The behavioral tendency estimation unit 191 estimates the behavioral tendency of the subject from the measurement results of the subject measured by the sensor 210. The behavioral tendency is information indicating, for example, whether the subject exercises a lot (i.e., the subject exercises a lot) or does not exercise much (i.e., the subject exercises a little). The behavioral tendency estimation unit 191 may estimate the intensity and duration of exercise from acceleration information in the live data, for example. Then, the behavioral tendency estimation unit 191 may estimate the amount of exercise from the estimated intensity and duration of exercise. The method for estimating the amount of exercise from the intensity and duration of exercise may be one of various existing methods. If the estimated amount of exercise is equal to or greater than a predetermined standard, the behavioral tendency estimation unit 191 may estimate that the subject exercises a lot (i.e., the subject exercises a lot). If the estimated amount of exercise is less than a predetermined standard, the behavioral tendency estimation unit 191 may estimate that the subject does not exercise much (i.e., the subject exercises a little). The method of estimating the behavioral tendency is not limited to this example, and the behavioral tendency is not limited to this example.

[0129] <Service Determination Unit 150> The service determination unit 150 determines, as the recommended service, a service that causes the subject to take a behavior that is different from the subject's behavioral tendency. For example, if the subject's behavioral tendency indicates that the subject does not exercise much (i.e., the subject exercises a small amount), the service determination unit 150 may determine, as the recommended service, a service that involves exercise. For example, if the subject's behavioral tendency indicates that the subject exercises a lot (i.e., the subject exercises a large amount), the service determination unit 150 may determine, as the recommended service, a service that does not involve exercise.

[0130] In the relationship between the health state and the mental state and the services for improving the health state and the mental state, a plurality of ranked services with different behavioral tendencies may be associated with a combination of the health state value and the mental state value. The plurality of services with different behavioral tendencies may include, for example, a service that involves exercise and a service that does not involve exercise.

[0131] This modification can also be applied to the fourth modification of the second embodiment of the present disclosure and the fifth modification of the second embodiment of the present disclosure. In this case, in the relationship between the health state, mental state, and physical strength and the services that can improve the health state and the mental state, a plurality of ranked services with different behavioral tendencies may be associated with the combination of the health state value and the mental state value.

[0132] The service determination unit 150 determines the service with the highest ranking among services that can improve the health and psychological state of the subject and cause the subject to take a behavior different from his / her own behavioral tendency as the recommended service.

[0133] If there is no service that can improve the health and psychological state of the subject and that causes the subject to behave in a manner different from their behavioral tendencies, the service determination unit 150 may determine the service with the highest ranking as the recommended service.

[0134] <Seventh Modification of the Second Embodiment> This modification is an example in which, when an abnormality is detected in the measurement results of the subject, a service for executing a psychological test is determined.

[0135] FIG. 13 is a block diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of a health improvement support device according to the present disclosure.

[0137] 13, the health improvement support device 103 includes a measurement result acquisition unit 110, a psychological test unit 120, a health state determination unit 130, a psychological state determination unit 140, a service determination unit 150, an incentive determination unit 160, a provision unit 170, and an abnormality detection unit 192. The health improvement support device 103 of this modification is the same as that of the second embodiment, except for the differences described below.

[0138] <Measurement result acquisition unit 110> The measurement result acquisition unit 110 acquires the transition of the measurement results.

[0139] <Abnormality detection unit 192> The abnormality detection unit 192 detects abnormalities in the transition of the measurement results. An abnormality in the transition of the measurement results is, for example, a change in the measurement value that is more abrupt than a predetermined standard in the transition of at least one of the multiple measurement values ​​included in the measurement results. An abnormality in the transition of the measurement results may be, for example, a measurement value that satisfies an abnormality standard in the transition of at least one of the multiple measurement values ​​included in the measurement results. The abnormality standard is, for example, a condition that a measurement value satisfies when excessive stress is applied.

[0140] <Psychological Test Section 120> If the above-mentioned abnormality is detected, the psychological test section 120 conducts a psychological test.

[0141] <Eighth Modification of the Second Embodiment> In this modification, the measurement result acquisition unit 110 acquires a face image, which is a measurement result of the subject, captured by a camera, which is a sensor.

[0142] The health condition determination unit 130 determines the health condition of the subject from the face image. The method for determining the health condition from the face image may be any of various existing methods for determining the health condition from the face image.

[0143] The psychological state determination unit 140 determines the psychological state of the subject from the facial image. The method for determining the psychological state from the facial image may be any of various existing methods for determining the psychological state from the facial image.
