Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, and a computer program for managing activity information related to sustainability activities. [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, discussions toward a sustainable society have been taking place at a global level. For example, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were adopted as international goals aiming for a sustainable and better world by 2030, setting 17 goals and 169 targets. Goals such as carbon neutrality and clean energy are also being discussed. Countries, local governments, companies, individuals, and others are engaged in a variety of activities toward these goals, and technologies to support these activities are also being developed.

[0003] Companies that are working on sustainability activities are also using computer systems to support their sustainability activities and promote them. For example, by using computer systems to manage the implementation status of sustainability activities by companies and users, sustainability activities are promoted toward the achievement of goals.

[0004] Patent Document 1 describes that when an employee participates in an outside activity, such as a social contribution activity, a hobby activity, a health promotion activity, a volunteer activity, or a skill-up activity, token information assigned in a token economy corresponding to the activity is acquired, and visualization information for visualizing the outside activity is output using the acquired token information. Patent Document 1 also describes that a certificate of social contribution to the target company is output as a non-fungible token to multiple employees belonging to the target company using token information assigned when the employee participates in a social contribution activity.

[0005] Patent Document 2 describes that in order to reduce both organic waste and non-burnable waste through the management of information on waste-related activities, activity information on waste-related activities such as waste collection activities and collection of food items scheduled for disposal is managed, and proof of participation in waste collection activities and information on collection activities for waste-related items is distributed. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0006] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 7178751 [Patent Document 2] Patent No. 7320319 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0007] Conventional technology acquires token information from the token economy and uses this token information to visualize external activities. However, this token information is limited to information acquired through sustainability activities belonging to the token economy and is specific to a specific token economy. Therefore, even if a user contributes to various sustainability activities, it is difficult for the user to grasp the overall nature of the sustainability activities they have contributed to or to communicate all of the activities they have carried out to others. Therefore, it has not been possible to increase incentives for sustainability activities. Furthermore, while companies have a responsibility to promote sustainability activities due to social conditions, the scope of sustainability activities that each company can carry out individually is limited, which is a factor that prevents sustainability activities from spreading.

[0008] The present invention has been made in light of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to provide an information processing device, an information processing method, and a computer program that will raise users' awareness of sustainability activities and help companies efficiently play a leading role in promoting sustainability activities. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] In order to solve the above problem, a first aspect of an information processing device, information processing method, or computer program according to the present disclosure is characterized by comprising an activity information acquisition unit that acquires activity information related to sustainability activities from one or more partners, an activity information centralized recording unit that centrally records the acquired activity information, and an activity information provision unit that provides the centrally recorded activity information.

[0010] A second aspect of the information processing device according to the present disclosure is characterized in that the one or more cooperation destinations are at least one of a user terminal, a store terminal, or an activity support server.

[0011] A third aspect of the information processing device according to the present disclosure is characterized in that the activity information acquisition unit acquires information on whether or not each piece of activity information is publicly available, and the activity information provision unit provides the centrally recorded activity information based on the information on whether or not the activity information is publicly available.

[0012] A fourth aspect of the information processing device according to the present disclosure is characterized in that it further comprises an activity certificate issuing unit that issues an activity certificate including an owner of the activity information and activity details for the acquired activity information.

[0013] A fifth aspect of the information processing device according to the present disclosure is characterized in that the activity information acquisition unit includes an interface for acquiring activity information recorded in an external device.

[0014] A sixth aspect of the information processing device according to the present disclosure is characterized in that the activity information acquisition unit acquires activity information issued under another service program.

[0015] A seventh aspect of the information processing device according to the present disclosure is characterized in that the activity information acquisition unit acquires activity information managed as a token on the blockchain. [Effects of the Invention]

[0016] According to the first aspect of the present disclosure, a user can centrally record activity information for sustainability activities, thereby easily managing the overall picture of the sustainability activities in which the user has participated. Furthermore, by being able to present activity information to third parties, users can highlight their achievements to others and increase their incentive to implement sustainability activities. Furthermore, for companies promoting sustainability activities, by linking activity information from multiple partners, companies can play a more efficient role in promoting sustainability activities than if each company handled them individually. Furthermore, for companies, being able to share activity information with partners such as other companies reduces the burden of managing activity information on each company.

[0017] According to the second aspect of the present disclosure, activity information distributed among user terminals, store terminals, or activity support servers is efficiently aggregated, thereby facilitating management of activity information carried out by the user himself / herself.

[0018] According to the third aspect of the present disclosure, when a record of activity information is presented to a third party, only information that the user has given permission to access can be made public, allowing the user to provide their own activity information with peace of mind.

[0019] According to the fourth aspect of the present disclosure, users can obtain proof of their sustainability activities, thereby clarifying the authenticity of activity information and increasing incentives to obtain activity information.

[0020] According to the fifth to seventh aspects of the present disclosure, even if a user subscribes to multiple service programs, by consolidating the activity information carried out by the user across the boundaries of the service programs, it is possible to grasp the full picture of the activity information carried out by the user, thereby making it easier to manage the activity information.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0022] First Embodiment An information processing device, an information processing method, and a computer program according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure will be described below with reference to the drawings. In the following description, configurations and elements that are the same as or similar to configurations that have already been described will be assigned the same reference numerals and descriptions thereof will be omitted.

[0023] (1) Overall structure of the Sustainability Activity Unified Recording System 1 FIG. 1 is a bird's-eye view illustrating an example of the overall configuration of a sustainability activity unified recording system 1 to which an information processing device, an information processing method, and a computer program according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure are applied. The sustainability activity unified recording system 1 illustrated in FIG. 1 is an information processing system for supporting sustainability activities, and includes a sustainability activity unified recording device 2, activity support servers A to D 30 to 33 (hereinafter, the activity support servers A to D 30 to 33 are collectively referred to as the "activity support server 3"), a store terminal 4, and a user terminal 5, all of which are connected via a network 6 such as the Internet. The sustainability activity unified recording device 2 may be an independent information processing device or may be configured with multiple information processing devices. In addition to the activity support servers A to D, the activity support server 3 may also include any server that provides a scheme for supporting sustainability activities.

[0024] Sustainability activities in this disclosure include all activities aimed at the long-term sustainability of the environment, society, and economy, and are treated as comprehensively including activities that contribute in some way to society in terms of the environment, society, and economy, such as activities aimed at the goals set out in the SDGs, as well as carbon neutrality, clean energy, etc. Furthermore, sustainability activities may be activities promoted at the global or national level, as well as those carried out at the private or individual level.

[0025] The sustainability activity unified recording device 2 will be described as being managed by a country, local government, company, individual, etc. (hereinafter, these will be collectively referred to as "entity") that provides a specific service program. The specific service program may be a loyalty program, etc. In the first embodiment, the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 is managed by an entity that provides a P service program that operates P points, and the entities that manage the activity support server 3 and the store terminal 4 are assumed to be participants in the P service program. Furthermore, users are individuals or corporations that wish to contribute to sustainability activities, and can participate in any sustainability activity. Furthermore, users are assumed to be participants in the P service program.

[0026] The sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 acquires activity information related to sustainability activities from one or more partners, centrally records the acquired activity information, and provides the centrally recorded activity information. Partners for acquiring activity information related to sustainability activities may be information processing devices such as the activity support server 3, store terminal 4, or user terminal 5, or may be activity support applications (hereinafter also referred to as "apps") installed on the user terminal 5, or programs recorded on the store terminal 4 or activity support server 3. In this way, partners include information processing devices and computer programs that can record and transmit activity information related to sustainability activities.

[0027] The activity information related to sustainability activities includes at least the activity content of the sustainability activity information. The activity content may include, for example, SDG-related activity content such as donation amount, volunteer participation time, and CO2 reduction amount, as well as education-related activity content such as qualifications, study time, and academic background. While it is desirable for the activity information to have a unified data format, since various entities manage activity information using their own computer systems, the activity information may be in any data format.

[0028] The centralized recording of activity information by the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 includes recording activity information obtained from one or more partners in one place so that it can be aggregated, recorded, and utilized. As a form of centralized recording, the activity information may be aggregated and recorded in one place in a physical sense, or the activity information may be aggregated in a logical sense and recorded, for example, as a single database.

[0029] The sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 issues an activity certificate for the acquired activity information, including the owner of the activity information and the activity details. The sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 electronically certifies the activity information acquired from the activity support server 3, store terminal 4, or user terminal 5, and issues an activity certificate certifying that the activity information is authentic. Note that the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 may also issue an activity certificate for activity information of sustainability activities that have already been centrally recorded.

[0030] The sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 acquires disclosure information for each piece of activity information. The disclosure information indicates whether the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 may disclose the activity information to third parties for each piece of activity information, and can be set by the user when recording the activity information on the user terminal 5 or when centrally recording the activity information. The user may be able to set disclosure information for all activity information related to a specific activity type, rather than for each piece of activity information. For example, donation activities may be set to not be publicly available.

[0031] The sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 provides relevant activity information in response to an external inquiry about activity information. For example, when an inquiry request for activity information is made from the activity support server 3, the store terminal 4, or the user terminal 5, the device extracts activity information corresponding to the inquiry request from the centrally recorded activity information, and provides the activity information determined to be public to the requester.

[0032] If the activity information of a specific user among the centrally recorded activity information satisfies a predetermined condition, the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 may determine service information for the specific user. For example, the service information may determine that a special benefit such as points is to be provided. The special benefit is not limited to points, but may also be a coupon or the right to enter a specific facility (e.g., an airport lounge).

[0033] The user terminal 5 is communicatively connected to the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 via a network 6, and has installed thereon an A / B activity support application (hereinafter also referred to as "A app" and "B app") for linking with the A / B activity support servers 30 and 31. The A app and the B app each provide the user with an activity support scheme that supports sustainability activities. The user can carry out sustainability activities by participating in the activity support scheme provided by the A app or the B app. Here, the activity support scheme is a mechanism or framework based on a specific plan or concept for carrying out the targeted sustainability activities. The user terminal 5 can record the activity results of the user's participation in sustainability activities on the user terminal 5 or the activity support server 3.

[0034] The user terminal 5 is also equipped with a browser for accessing the activity support server 3 on the network 6, and can access the C and D activity support servers 32 and 33. Through the browser, users can carry out sustainability activities by participating in the activity support scheme provided by the C and D activity support servers 32 and 33. The activity support server 3 can record the activity results of the user's participation in sustainability activities on the activity support server 3 or the user terminal 5.

[0035] The store terminal 4 is an information processing device that is installed in a store or the like and has the function of providing a scheme to support sustainability activities. Here, the store participates in the P service program. In this embodiment, a user can participate in the same activity support scheme as the user terminal 5 by using the store terminal 4. The store terminal 4 accepts input of the results of the user's sustainability activities and records them in the store terminal 4. The store terminal 4 can report the results of the user's participation in sustainability activities to the activity support server 3 that is linked to the store terminal 4.

[0036] The activity support server 3 provides users with an activity support scheme for contributing to sustainability activities, and supports sustainability activities by allowing users to participate in the activity support scheme. The activity support server 3 may provide the activity support scheme in cooperation with an app installed on the user terminal 5 or store terminal 4, or may provide the activity support scheme via a browser on the user terminal 5 or store terminal.

[0037] In the first embodiment, as an example, the A activity support server 30 is an information processing device that implements sustainability activities with recycling as the goal, and provides a recycling activity support scheme in cooperation with an A activity support application (A app) installed on the user terminal 5. The B activity support server 31 is an information processing device that implements sustainability activities with volunteering as the goal, and provides a volunteer activity support scheme in cooperation with a B activity support application (B app) installed on the user terminal 5. The C activity support server 32 is an information processing device that implements sustainability activities with donations as the goal, and provides a donation activity support scheme via the browser of the user terminal 5 or the B app. The D activity support server 33 is an information processing device that implements sustainability activities with carbon offsets as the goal, and provides a CO2 reduction activity support scheme via the browser of the user terminal 5.

[0038] When a user wishes to participate in a sustainability activity, the user launches an app installed on the user terminal 5 that is related to the sustainability activity in which the user wishes to participate, and performs a predetermined action in accordance with the activity support scheme provided by the app. Alternatively, the user launches a browser on the user terminal 5, logs in to the activity support server 3 that is related to the sustainability activity in which the user wishes to participate, and performs a predetermined action in accordance with the activity support scheme provided by the activity support server 3. When the user performs a predetermined action in accordance with the app on the user terminal 5 or the activity support scheme provided by the activity support server 3, the results of the action are recorded as activity information within the app or the activity support server 3. The activity information is information that numerically expresses the results of the sustainability activity, and for example, donation amounts, volunteer participation hours, CO2 reduction amounts, etc. are recorded depending on the content of the sustainability activity.

[0039] For example, when a user launches and logs into app A, which implements a recycling activity support scheme, app A displays multiple sustainability action plans, such as "recycle activities," "reuse activities," "my bottle activities," and "my bag activities," along with instructions for implementing each action, on the display unit 59 of the user terminal 5. When a user performs these actions in their daily lives, they record the details of the action in app A. For example, when a user performs a "recycle activity" action, they register the details of the action, such as the activity type (e.g., used clothing recycling), the amount of activity (e.g., 5 kg of used clothing), the organizer (e.g., Company P), and the location of the activity (e.g., Tokyo), in app A. app A records the registered activity information within the app and reports it to activity support server A 30. In this way, by accumulating the results of actions such as "recycle activities," "reuse activities," "my bottle activities," and "my bag activities" performed in their daily lives, users can contribute to sustainability activities and accumulate activity information.

[0040] When a user launches and logs in to application B, which implements a volunteer activity support scheme, application B displays various volunteer activities and how to carry them out on the display unit 59 of the user terminal 5. When the user participates in any volunteer activity, the user records the activity results, such as the volunteer name and activity time, as activity information in application B. Application B reports the recorded activity information to activity support server B 31.

[0041] A user can log in to the C activity support server 32 that implements a donation activity support scheme or the D activity support server 33 that implements a CO2 reduction activity support scheme from the browser of the user terminal 5, and participate in actions provided by these activity support schemes. The user records the activity results of their participation in this action as activity information in the C activity support server 32 or the D activity support server 33. The activity information recorded in the C activity support server 32 or the D activity support server 33 may be transmitted to the user terminal 5 and recorded in the user terminal 5.

[0042] (2) Hardware configuration (2-1) Sustainability Activity Centralized Recording Device 2 The sustainability activity unified recording device 2 includes a processor 21, a memory 22, a storage 23, a communication interface (communication I / F) 24, an input / output interface (input / output I / F) 25, and a bus 26 connecting these components. The processor 21 controls the overall operation of the sustainability activity unified recording device 2. The processor 21 may be a general-purpose processor such as a CPU, MPU, or GPU, but may also be a dedicated processor such as an ASIC or FPGA. The memory 22 is a main storage device and includes RAM. The storage 23 is an auxiliary storage device and includes a non-volatile storage device such as a hard disk drive (HDD) or a solid-state drive (SSD). The communication interface (communication I / F) 24 is a wired or wireless communication interface and is a module for communicating with devices such as the activity support server, store terminals, and user terminals 5 via a network 6. The network 6 is, for example, the Internet and may include access networks such as a LAN, WAN, mobile communication network, wired telephone network, FTTH, and CATV network. An input / output interface (input / output I / F) 25 receives input data from the outside and outputs output data to the outside.

[0043] (2-2) Activity Support Server 3 The activity support server 3 includes at least a processor, a memory, a storage, a communication interface (communication I / F), an input / output interface (input / output I / F), and a bus connecting these.

[0044] (2-3) Store terminal 4 The store terminal includes at least a processor, a memory, a storage, a communication interface (communication I / F), an input / output interface (input / output I / F), and a bus connecting these components.

[0045] (2-4) User terminal 5 The user terminal 5 includes a processor 51, a memory 52, a storage 53, a camera 54, a communication interface (communication I / F) 55, an input / output interface (input / output I / F) 56, a touch screen 57, and a bus 50 connecting these. The storage 53 stores an operating system (OS), a web browser, various applications, and various data. The touch screen 57 includes an input unit 58 and a display unit 59. The user terminal 5 is, for example, a mobile terminal such as a smartphone, a tablet terminal, or a notebook personal computer. The user terminal 5 may also be a stationary computer such as a desktop personal computer.

[0046] (3) Activity information flow FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of the flow of activity information between the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2, the A to D activity support servers 30 to 33, and the user terminal 5 (or the store terminal 4). The sustainability activity unified recording device 2 can cooperate with the A and B apps of the user terminal 5 (or the store terminal 4) to acquire the A and B activity information recorded in these apps. Furthermore, when the user terminal 5 (or the store terminal 4) receives C and D activity information from the C and D activity support servers 32 and 33 via a browser, the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 can acquire the C and D activity information from the user terminal 5. The sustainability activity unified recording device 2 can cooperate with the A to D activity support servers 30 to 33 to acquire activity information from the A to D activity support servers 30 to 33. The sustainability activity unified recording device 2 may cooperate with an external device 34 to acquire activity information under other service programs recorded in the external device 34. This cooperation may be activity information cooperation through normal data transmission and reception via a communication control unit, or API cooperation through an API (Application Programming Interface).

[0047] The activity information acquired by the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 in cooperation with the user terminal 5 (or store terminal 4), the activity support server 3, and the external device 34 is centrally recorded in the activity information storage unit 212. Furthermore, the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 can provide to the outside as public activity information, information that the user has given permission to be made public out of the centrally recorded activity information.

[0048] (4) Functional configuration (4-1) Sustainability Activity Centralized Recording Device 2 3 is a block diagram showing an example of the functional configuration of a sustainability activity unified recording device 2, which is an information processing device according to this embodiment. The functional configuration of the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 of this embodiment includes a collaboration management unit 200, a storage unit 210, and a communication control unit 220. The communication control unit 220 controls communication with the A to D activity support servers 30 to 33, the store terminal 4, and the user terminal 5 via the network 6 in accordance with instructions from the collaboration management unit 200.

[0049] (4-1-1) Storage section 210 The storage unit 210 includes a collaboration information storage unit 211 and an activity information storage unit 212. The collaboration information storage unit 211 records collaboration information that the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 uses to access collaboration destinations to acquire activity information. The activity information storage unit 212 centrally records activity information that the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 acquires from the activity support server 3, store terminal 4, and user terminal 5.

[0050] (4-1-2) Collaboration Management Department 200 The collaboration management unit 200 functions as a collaboration destination setting unit 201, a certification service authentication unit 202, an activity information acquisition unit 203, an activity information unified recording unit 204, an activity certification issuing unit 205, an activity information providing unit 206, and a service information determination unit 207 by the processor 21 executing a program stored in the memory 22.

[0051] The link setting unit 201 sets information about link destinations that will provide activity information to the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2. The link destination is, for example, at least one of the activity support server 3, the store terminal 4, or the user terminal 5, and the link destination information includes identification information for these devices or apps or programs recorded in these devices, as well as address information on the network 6 for the activity support server 3, the store terminal 4, or the user terminal 5. When a new device or app / program is added as a link destination, the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 obtains link destination information for the device or app / program and records it in the link destination information storage unit 211.

[0052] The certification service authentication unit 202 authenticates the partner and the user when there is a login request from the user terminal 5 (or the store terminal 4) to the certification service provided by the sustainability activity unified recording device 2. The certification service is a service that certifies that activity information of the sustainability activities carried out by the user is centrally recorded in the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 and issues an activity certificate. User authentication can be performed using account information and a password entered by the user. If user authentication has already been performed in the login process to the app, the user authentication result may be used. Note that in the case of a new login request, a login registration process and a collaboration information setting process may be performed. Furthermore, collaboration authentication verifies that the device or app that requested login is a collaboration destination recorded in the collaboration information storage unit 211.

[0053] The activity information acquisition unit 203 acquires information for activity information linkage from the user terminal 5 (or the store terminal 4). The information for activity information linkage includes an activity certificate issuance request and activity information to be centrally recorded in the activity information storage unit 212.

[0054] The information for activity information linking may not include the activity information itself to be centrally recorded, but may include information about the linking destination that records the activity information. The linking destination may be at least one of the activity support server 3, the store terminal 4, the user terminal 5, or an app or program installed on these devices. The activity information acquisition unit 203 may acquire linking destination information for accessing the linking destination from the linking destination information storage unit 211, send an activity information request to the linking destination, and acquire the activity information to be centrally recorded for the user. In this case, it is assumed that the activity information is not recorded on the user terminal 5, and that the activity information is recorded only on the activity support server 3 side. Therefore, if a response is received from the user terminal 5 that sent the activity information request indicating that the corresponding activity information is not recorded, the activity information may be requested from the corresponding activity support server 3.

[0055] The activity information unified recording unit 204 updates the activity information management table recorded in the activity information storage unit 212 with the activity information acquired by the activity information acquisition unit 203 . FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the contents of the activity information management table. The sustainability activity unified recording device 2 generates an activity information record including the activity information acquisition source and activity content for each piece of acquired activity information, and records it in the activity information management table. The activity information acquisition source records the date the activity information was acquired, the acquisition source, and the activity support scheme. The activity content records the activity information owner ID (such as a member ID), the type of activity the owner was involved in, the amount of activity, the organizer, the activity location, tag information, and a flag indicating whether the activity information is public. The owner ID can be the user ID used when logging in to the app or the member ID of the P Point service.

[0056] The first record in the activity information management table in Figure 4 records, as activity information source information, that activity information related to a recycling activity scheme implemented by app A was obtained from app A installed on user device 5 on November 30th of year X. The activity details also include P123 as the owner ID of the activity information, used clothing recycling as the activity type, 5 kg of used clothing as the activity amount, P Company as the organizer of the recycling activity, Tokyo as the activity location, and a flag indicating disclosure (Y). Tag information is used to identify a specific activity, and if applicable, information such as △ support activities for child poverty or □ support fund is recorded.

[0057] The activity certificate issuing unit 205 issues an activity certificate indicating that the user's activity information has been registered in the activity information management table. The activity certificate includes document data describing the destination of the activity information in the activity information management table and the activity details, and an electronic certificate indicating the authenticity of the user's possession of the activity information described in the document data. An electronic signature or timestamp may be applied to the electronic certificate. By presenting the activity certificate to a third party, the user can prove the details of their sustainability activities.

[0058] When the activity information providing unit 206 receives an information inquiry request for specific activity information from the activity support server 3, the store terminal 4, or the user terminal 5, it acquires the specific activity information and provides the activity information to the information request destination. At this time, if the disclosure flag of the activity information that is the subject of the information request is set to "No," the activity information is not provided. Because the activity information provided by the activity information providing unit 206 is information that can be made public, the information request destination can use the provided activity information to tally up users who are contributing to sustainability activities and understand the activity information of specific users.

[0059] The service information determination unit 207 can acquire activity information associated with a specific user from the activity information recorded in the activity information management table that satisfies predetermined conditions, and determine service information to be granted to the specific user based on the acquired activity information. For example, when a specific user performs a sustainability activity that satisfies predetermined conditions, the service information can determine that points corresponding to the sustainability activity are to be granted as a benefit.

[0060] The service information determination unit 207 of the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 determines service information that serves as a cross-sectional and common measure for the activity information provided by application A, application B, activity support server 3, etc. The service information determination unit 207 can determine the service information to be granted to a user based on the conditions specified by the cross-sectional and common measure. For example, when awarding rewards such as points for centrally recorded sustainability activities, different weights may be assigned to each sustainability activity depending on the social contribution of each sustainability activity.

[0061] The activity support server 3, store terminal 4, or user terminal 5 can also determine service information based on the conditions specified by each, and the service information determined in this manner can be aggregated in the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2. In this case, the activity support server 3, store terminal 4, or user terminal 5 can register service information in advance in the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2, and the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 can control the distribution of the service information using a smart contract based on the registered activity information.

[0062] (4-2) User terminal 5 5 is a block diagram showing an example of the functional configuration of a user terminal 5 according to this embodiment. The user terminal 5 according to this embodiment includes, as its functional configuration, an activity management unit 500 and a communication control unit 520. Furthermore, as storage units, it includes an in-app activity information storage unit 510 and an in-app activity proof storage unit 511. In this embodiment, the activity management unit 500 will be described as a function realized by an application installed on the user terminal 5. Note that, when the activity support scheme is implemented on the activity support server 3 by the web browser of the user terminal 5 accessing the activity support server 3, the activity support server 3 has a function of implementing the activity support scheme instead of the user terminal 5.

[0063] When a user performs a sustainability activity using the app's activity support scheme, the in-app activity information storage unit 510 records the activity results in association with the user and the app. For example, when a user performs actions such as "recycle activity," "reuse activity," "my bottle activity," and "my bag activity" using app A on the user terminal 5, the in-app activity information storage unit 510 records the user's activity results for each action in association with the user ID and identification information of app A. The activity results may be recorded in the in-app activity information storage unit 510 and may also be transmitted to activity support server A 30 linked with app A and stored within activity support server A 30. The in-app activity certificate storage unit 511 records the activity certificate transmitted from the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 in response to an activity certificate issuance request transmitted by the app on the user terminal 5.

[0064] When the processor 51 executes an app stored in the memory 52, the activity management unit 500 functions as an app login processing unit 501, an app service providing unit 502, an activity implementation unit 503, a certification service login processing unit 504, an activity information linking unit 505, an activity certification acquisition unit 506, an activity information inquiry unit 507, and a service information determination unit 508.

[0065] The application login processing unit 501 is executed when the user launches an application, and requests login information from the user to log in to the application. The login information may include a user ID and password. The user ID may be a member ID of a P point service. By using the member ID of the P point service, a system can be established in which P points are awarded as a reward for activities performed in application A.

[0066] The application service providing unit 502 provides the user with an activity support scheme provided by the application. For example, if the application employs a recycling activity support scheme as a sustainability activity, the application service providing unit 502 displays on the display unit 59 the content of the action, how to implement it, how to register the implementation results, and the like, for actions aimed at recycling activities such as "recycling activity," "reuse activity," "my bottle activity," and "my bag activity," and encourages the user to participate in the action.

[0067] The activity implementation unit 503 acquires the user's activity information for the action selected by the user and records it in the in-app activity information storage unit 510. For example, for the action of "recycling activity," the date and time of recycling, the activity type, the amount of activity, the organizer, the activity location, etc. are recorded. The user can also record permission information regarding whether or not the recorded activity information can be made public. The activity implementation unit 503 may visualize and display the implementation status of ongoing sustainability activities. For example, the results of recycling activities carried out by the user using app A can be displayed in the form of a graph or the like.

[0068] In response to an instruction from the user, the certification service login processing unit 504 sends a login request to the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 to request a certification service. The certification service login processing unit 504 sends a user ID and password to the sustainability activity unified recording device 2. At this time, the certification service login processing may be performed using the user ID and password used in the login processing to the app. When the certification service login processing unit 504 receives a response of login permission from the sustainability activity unified recording device 2, it activates the activity information linking unit 505.

[0069] The activity information linking unit 505 sends the activity information that is the subject of the certification service together with an activity certification request to the sustainability activity unified recording device 2. The activity information that is the subject of the certification service may be activity information specified by the user, or activity information that has not received the certification service. The activity information linking unit 505 asks the user to input disclosure information for the activity information specified as the subject of the certification service. The disclosure information may be set for each individual piece of activity information, or may be set for each activity type, such as "donation." The user terminal 5 sends the activity information that includes the non-disclosure information to the sustainability activity unified recording device 2. Note that the user terminal 5 may also send activity information other than the activity information that is not disclosed to the sustainability activity unified recording device 2.

[0070] The activity certificate acquisition unit 506 acquires from the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 an activity certificate that the activity information specified by the user has been recorded in the sustainability activity unified recording device 2. The activity certificate is configured to be displayable on the display unit 59 of the user terminal 5, and by acquiring the activity certificate, the user can present their activity information to third parties and highlight their contribution to sustainability activities.

[0071] The activity information inquiry unit 507 is activated by a user of the app and transmits to the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 an inquiry request for activity information associated with the user from among the unifiedly recorded activity information. At this time, the inquiry request may be transmitted by specifying the range of activity information to be queried. For example, the range of activity information can be specified by specifying the activity information acquisition source or items included in the activity content (e.g., date, acquisition source, activity support scheme, owner, activity type, activity amount, organizer, activity location, tag information) recorded in the activity information management table. Alternatively, activity information that has not been queried before may be targeted. The activity information inquiry unit 507 acquires public activity information that is set to be public from the activity information corresponding to the inquiry request from the sustainability activity unified recording device 2. The acquired public activity information may be displayed on the display unit 59 of the user terminal 5 or may be transmitted to the service information determination unit 207 and used to determine service information.

[0072] The service information determination unit 508 determines service information, such as a benefit to be granted based on the app's specifications, for activity information that satisfies a predetermined condition among the activity information associated with the user acquired by the activity information inquiry unit 507. The predetermined condition can be set to be whether the activity amount of a predetermined action reaches a predetermined threshold. For example, the predetermined condition can be set to be whether the donation amount for a donation activity performed using the app reaches a predetermined amount, or whether the number of volunteer activities reaches a predetermined number. If it is determined that the activity information satisfies the predetermined condition, service information, such as a benefit specified by the app, is determined for the user. The benefit can be points, coupons, products, or the like.

[0073] Here, the service information is determined based on the public activity information performed within the app to which the user is logged in. However, the service information may be determined based on the public activity information obtained from another app or the activity support server. In this case, the service information may be determined in a manner that presents a special gift for the public activity information performed by other users.

[0074] (4-3) Store terminal 4 The store terminal 4 is an information processing device installed in a store and used by users who visit the store. The store terminal 4 is connected to the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 and the activity support server 3. Like the user terminal 5, the store terminal 4 cooperates with the activity support server 3 to provide a sustainability activity support scheme. Users can participate in the activity support scheme provided by the store terminal 4. The store terminal 4 also has the same functions as the user terminal 5, providing the activity support scheme to users and recording their activity information. The store terminal 4 can also log in to the sustainability activity unified recording device 2, send the activity information to be certified along with an activity certificate issuance request, and obtain an activity certificate certifying that the activity information has been centrally recorded. Furthermore, the store terminal 4 can send an activity information inquiry request to the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 and obtain public activity information. The store terminal 4 can also determine the service information to be granted to users based on the store terminal 4's specifications.

[0075] (4-4) Activity Support Server 3 6 is a block diagram showing an example of the functional configuration of the app-linked activity support server 3 according to this embodiment. The activity support server 3 of this embodiment has, as its functional configuration, an activity support management unit 300, an intra-server activity information storage unit 310, and a communication control unit 320. The intra-server activity information storage unit 310 records activity information of users who have participated in the activity support scheme provided by the activity support server 3. The communication control unit 320 controls communication between the activity support server 3 and the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2, the store terminal 4, and the user terminal 5.

[0076] The activity support management unit 300 functions as a login processing unit 301, an activity information recording unit 302, an activity information inquiry unit 303, and a service information determination unit 304 by the processor executing a program stored in the memory.

[0077] The login processing unit 301 executes user authentication processing in response to a login request from the store terminal 4 or the user terminal 5. The activity support server 3 can be accessed from an app or a browser installed on the user terminal 5. Similarly, the activity support server 3 can also be accessed from the store terminal 4. If the user's login information is input when the app on the user terminal 5 is started, a login request to the activity support server 3 may be made using the input login information.

[0078] The activity information recording unit 302 records the user's activity information related to the activity support scheme provided by the activity support server 3 in cooperation with the app of the user terminal 5. The activity information recording unit 302 can record the same content as the activity information recorded in the app of the user terminal 5 that is linked with the activity support server 3 in the intra-server activity information storage unit 310.

[0079] The activity information inquiry unit 303 sends a request to inquire about centrally recorded activity information to the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2. The activity information inquiry unit 303 can specify the range of activity information to be inquired, from items in the activity information management table managed by the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2. The activity information inquiry unit 303 obtains public activity information that falls within the requested range from the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2.

[0080] The service information determination unit 304 extracts activity information that satisfies predetermined conditions from the public activity information acquired by the activity information inquiry unit 303. The service information determination unit 304 determines service information for the public activity information based on the specifications of the activity support server 3, and provides the service to the user. The service information may be any information, such as points or coupons.

[0081] (5) Operation of the Sustainability Activity Centralized Recording System 1 7 is a flowchart for explaining an example of the overall operation of the sustainability activity centralized recording system 1 of this embodiment, and shows an example of the operation flow of each of the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2, user terminal 5 / store terminal 4, and activity support server 3 that make up the sustainability activity centralized recording system 1. Note that the operation flow of the store terminal 4 is similar to that of the user terminal 5, so the operation flow of the user terminal 5 will be described below.

[0082] (5-1) Sustainability Activity Centralized Recording Device 2 The sustainability activity unified recording device 2 sets link destination information for the device or app / program that will be newly linked to the sustainability activity information (step S20). The sustainability activity unified recording device 2 acquires identification information that identifies the device and address information on the network 6 for the activity support server 3, store terminal 4, user terminal 5, or app installed on the user terminal 5 that will be newly linked, and sets this as link destination information.

[0083] In response to a certification service login request from the user terminal 5, the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 acquires the user ID and password sent from the user terminal 5 and performs user authentication (step S21). At this time, it may verify that the certification service login request destination is a partner recorded in the partner information storage unit 211. If the user is authenticated as legitimate, it acquires the activity information to be certified along with an activity certification issuance request from the user terminal 5 (step S22). The sustainability activity unified recording device 2 records the acquired activity information in the activity information management table (step S23) and issues an activity certification including the owner of the activity information and the activity content (step S24).

[0084] When the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 receives an activity information inquiry request from the activity support server 3, the store terminal 4, or the user terminal 5, it extracts the activity information corresponding to the request from the activity information management table and provides it to the inquiry destination as public activity information. At this time, if the activity information recorded in the activity information management table is set to not be public, it is not provided to the inquiry destination.

[0085] The sustainability activity unified recording device 2 extracts activity information that satisfies predetermined service provision conditions from the activity information unifiedly recorded in the activity information management table, and determines service information (step S26). The content of the service information determined by the sustainability activity unified recording device may be notified to the user terminal 5 or the activity support server 3.

[0086] (5-2) User terminal 5 / Store terminal 4 When an application login request is input from the user, the user terminal 5 executes login processing for the user (step S50). When the user terminal 5 accepts the user's login request, it provides an application service (step S51). The application service is a service for realizing an activity support scheme, and for example, the application provides actions such as "recycle activity," "reuse activity," "my bottle activity," and "my bag activity." The user performs one of the action items (step S52). For example, if the user performs used clothing recycling as "recycle" and the recycled amount is 5 kg, the user inputs these activity results into the application. The application updates the activity information management table with the input activity information and records it in the in-application activity information storage unit 510. The application also reports the activity information to the activity support server 3 with which it is linked.

[0087] When a user requests certification of specific activity information, the user terminal 5 sends a certification service login request to the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 (step S53). When the login request is accepted by the sustainability activity unified recording device 2, the user terminal 5 executes activity information linking processing (step S54). In the activity information linking processing, the user terminal 5 sends an activity certification issuance request to the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 along with the activity information that is the subject of the activity certification. The activity certification, which includes the centrally recorded owner and activity details, is acquired from the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 (step S55). The user terminal 5 can display the acquired activity certification on the display unit 59 according to the user's input operation, or provide it to a third party that requests the activity certification.

[0088] In step S54, the activity information to be certified as the activity subject to activity certification is transmitted to the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2. However, instead of the activity information to be certified as the activity subject to activity certification, information for identifying the activity information to be certified as the activity subject may be transmitted. Also, a request for certification of activity may be transmitted again for activity information that has already been centrally recorded in the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2.

[0089] The user terminal 5 sends an activity information inquiry request to the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 in accordance with the user's input operation (step S56). The user terminal 5 may be able to specify the range of activity information to be queried by identifying the source of activity information or the activity content that is centrally recorded in the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2. For example, conditions may be set regarding the source of activity information recorded in the activity information management table or conditions regarding the activity content, and an inquiry may be made for activity information that satisfies these conditions.

[0090] When the user terminal 5 acquires the public activity information from the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2, it can determine service information, such as benefits to be granted to the user, based on the public activity information (step S57). Note that, since the user terminal 5 also records non-public activity information, it may determine service information using both public activity information and private activity information. Furthermore, the user terminal 5 can disclose the public activity information to third parties to show that the user is contributing to sustainability activities.

[0091] (5-3) Activity Support Server 3 The app-linked activity support server 3 receives activity information from the user terminal 5 and records the activity information in the server activity information storage unit 310 (step S30). The activity support server 3 sends an activity information inquiry to the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 in response to a user instruction or at a predetermined timing, and receives public activity information (step S31). The received public activity information may be provided to a third party or used in determining service information (step S32).

[0092] Figure 7 shows the processing by the activity support server 3 for app integration, but in the case of an activity support server 3 accessed by a web browser, upon receiving a login request from a user, it can execute an activity implementation process (steps S51 to S52) and an activity information integration and certification process (steps S53 to S55) carried out on the user terminal 5.

[0093] Second Embodiment In the first embodiment, the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 collects and centrally records activity information from individuals, companies, local governments, etc. participating in a predetermined service program. For example, if the predetermined service program is a P service program, the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 centrally manages the activity information by linking with an activity support app related to the P service program, and an activity support server 3 and store terminal 4 participating in the P service program.

[0094] In the second embodiment, the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 also acquires activity information of individuals, companies, local governments, etc. participating in service programs other than the P service program, for example, the Q service program, and centrally records this information within the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2.

[0095] Figure 8 is a diagram showing an example of the flow of activity information in the sustainability activity centralized recording system 1 according to the second embodiment. In Figure 8, the sustainability activity centralized recording system 1 on the P service program side, like the first embodiment, comprises a sustainability activity centralized recording device 2, A to D activity support servers 30 to 33, a store terminal 4, and a user terminal 5. On the other hand, the system on the Q service program side comprises W to Z activity support servers 80 to 83, a user terminal / store terminal 84, and a recording device 85 that records activity information in cooperation with these devices and terminals.

[0096] As shown in FIG. 8 , when two service programs exist, a user, company, local government, etc. may participate in both service programs. For example, a user may install an A activity support app for participating in the P service program on user terminal 5 and a W activity support app for participating in the Q service program on user terminal 84, and use both apps to carry out sustainability activities. In such a case, the user records information about activities carried out under the P service program in the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 and records information about activities carried out under the Q service program in recording device 85. As such, users need to separately manage information about activities carried out under different service programs, and there has been a need for users to centralize the activity information.

[0097] The sustainability activity unified recording device 2 in the second embodiment acquires and centrally records activity information recorded in each of the P service program and the Q service program. To this end, the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 cooperates with the recording device 85 under the Q service program, and sets the W to Z activity support servers 80 to 83, user terminal / store terminal 84, or recording device 85 on the Q service program side as cooperation destinations in the cooperation destination information storage unit 211, and can acquire and centrally record activity information via the recording device 85 on the Q service program side.

[0098] The activity information acquisition unit of the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 has an interface for acquiring activity information recorded in the external device 34, and can acquire activity information issued under other service programs via this interface. A similar interface is also provided in the recording device 85, and the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 executes activity information linkage / API linkage with the recording device 85 via both interfaces.

[0099] In response to an activity information linking request from the recording device 85, the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 acquires the activity information to be centrally recorded from the recording device 85. After identifying that the activity information is carried out under the Q service program, the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 records the activity information in the activity information storage unit 212, just like activity information carried out under the P service program. For example, when activity information is acquired from the W activity support app installed on the user terminal 84 and centrally recorded, as shown in FIG. 4, "W app" is entered as the source of the activity information.

[0100] In this way, even if a user participates in multiple service programs, activity information from other service programs can be transferred and centrally recorded to the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2, allowing the user to grasp the entirety of their sustainability activities in one place and increasing their incentive to engage in sustainability activities. Also, for companies, sharing activity information with others reduces the burden of managing their own activity information.

[0101] <Third embodiment> Depending on the program supporting sustainability activities, blockchain technology may be used to manage activity information for sustainability activities and their owners as tokens. Therefore, in the third embodiment, the sustainability activity unified recording device 2 acquires and centrally records activity information managed as tokens on a blockchain. The token includes user activity information and owner information, and includes, for example, tokens such as NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) or SBTs (Soul Bound Tokens). NFTs are data that record the owner and transaction history of digital assets, circulate on a blockchain, and function as proof of ownership. SBTs are non-transferable tokens that can function as certificates. In the third embodiment, activity information for sustainability activities is associated with digital assets managed by NFTs, and the owners of the activity information correspond to users, companies, local governments, and the like who are the subjects of the activity information. Furthermore, the transfer history of the activity information is recorded as a transaction record for the NFT. While the third embodiment uses NFTs as an example, tokens other than NFTs that can identify activity information and owners, such as SBTs, may also be used.

[0102] FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of the flow of activity information in the sustainability activity centralized recording system 1 according to the third embodiment. In FIG. 9, the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2, user terminal 5, and A-D activity support server 33 have the same configuration as in the first embodiment, but the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 is connected to an NFT management device 7 that handles NFT transactions via an interface for acquiring activity information recorded in an external device 34. The interface can execute API linkages. The NFT management device 7 is an information processing device for generating NFTs based on activity information of users participating in sustainability activities and providing NFT information.

[0103] An NFT includes, for example, metadata, attribute data, and image data. The metadata includes an NFT-ID for identifying the NFT, the storage location of the attribute data, the ID of the entity that issued the NFT, and the ID (user ID) of the owner of the activity information. The attribute data includes the ID of the attribute data, activity details (activity type, activity amount, organizer, activity location, etc.), and a link to a certificate (image data) certifying activity support. The NFT management device 7 acquires activity information from users participating in the activity support scheme, creates certificate data (image data), and generates an NFT. Note that because the image data needs to be recorded outside the blockchain, the image data may be omitted and the metadata and attribute data may be written to the blockchain.

[0104] Upon request from a user participating in the N activity support scheme, the NFT management device 7 can provide the activity information recorded in the user's NFT to the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2. The NFT management device 7 accesses the NFT requested by the user and acquires metadata and attribute data to obtain activity information including the user ID, activity details, etc. Note that the activity details of the user are publicly available on the blockchain, and can therefore be treated as publicly accessible.

[0105] When the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 receives a centralized recording request for a specified NFT from the NFT management device 7, it acquires the activity information to be centrally recorded from the NFT management device 7 and centrally records the activity information in the activity information management table. In the activity information management table, the NFT is recorded as the acquisition source to indicate that the activity information was acquired from the NFT management device 7. Note that here, the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 acquires the activity information from the NFT and centrally records it, but the NFT may also be transferred to the sustainability activity centralized recording device 2 and then centrally record the activity information.

[0106] On the blockchain, NFTs record the owner and the details of the activity, and the history of activity information transfer is recorded through transaction records, making it possible to guarantee who performed what sustainability activities. As a result, users can record NFT-ized activity information in a unified manner, just like other activity records, thereby increasing incentives for sustainability activities.

[0107] The present disclosure is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and the components can be modified and embodied in practice without departing from the spirit of the present disclosure. Furthermore, various inventions can be formed by appropriately combining multiple components disclosed in the above-described embodiments. For example, some components may be omitted from all the components shown in the embodiments. Furthermore, components from different embodiments may be appropriately combined.
