[0010] Hereinafter, a facility information viewing system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0011] FIG. 1 shows the configuration of a facility information viewing system according to this embodiment.

[0012] The facility information viewing system 1 allows users to view information such as facility instruction manuals on an information device such as a tablet or a mobile terminal such as a smartphone. The facility information viewing system 1 includes an input unit 2, an output unit 3, a document data storage unit 4, a facility image data storage unit 5, and a control unit 6.

[0013] The input unit 2 is a section where the user inputs the document or facility to be viewed from the document data stored in the document data storage unit 4 or the facility image data stored in the facility image data storage unit 5. The input unit 2 may be a touch panel or a touch pen for touching the document or facility to be viewed, or a pointing device or keyboard for selecting or inputting the name of the document or facility to be viewed. The input unit 2 may also be a button or the like attached to a mouse or a stick for moving and clicking the cursor to the name of the document or facility to be viewed from the document data stored in the document data storage unit 4 or the image of the facility to be viewed from the facility image data stored in the facility image data storage unit 5.

[0014] The output unit 3 may be a display or the like that displays to the user the document data stored in the document data storage unit 4 or the image data stored in the facility image data storage unit 5. In addition, if the information device is a tablet terminal, the input unit 2 and the output unit 3 may be configured as a touch panel.

[0015] The document data storage unit 4 stores document data including the model number, serial number, and specifications / optional functions of the facility used by the user. The document data may be electronic data such as PDF or HTML, such as a completion drawing 41, a maintenance manual 42, a construction finishing schedule 43, and an instruction manual 44. The document data may be created by the manufacturer of each facility, the facility manager of all facilities, or a document manager entrusted with document management.

[0016] It is preferable that document data be linked to each other or to facility image data. For example, it is preferable that the completion drawings 41, maintenance manual 42, architectural finish schedule 43, and instruction manual 44 for the same facility are linked and immediately displayed. Furthermore, it is preferable that the document data be stored by dividing the contents of each document into multiple electronic files for each of the multiple items of each document, rather than storing each document in a single electronic file.

[0017] In this way, by converting the documents that were previously prepared separately on paper for each facility into electronic data, there is no longer a need to prepare paper documents for delivery, which reduces the labor required. Also, there is no longer a need to store heavy paper documents for each facility, which allows for more efficient use of storage space. Furthermore, information on the target facility can be viewed quickly and easily.

[0018] The facility image data storage unit 5 stores facility image data. It is preferable that the facility image data be 360° and 3D image data of the facility to be viewed, as this gives the user the feeling that they are actually present at the location on the screen and allows for easy and understandable operation. It is preferable to store not only the overall data of the facility to be viewed, but also images of individual architectural facilities, air conditioning facilities, or electrical facilities separately. The facility image data includes document icons that allow the selection of document data related to the facility. Furthermore, by storing images of a facility under construction, it is possible to view information on parts that will be hidden upon completion.

[0019] The document data storage unit 4 and the facility image data storage unit 5 may be storage media such as a hard disk or SSD. The storage media may be optical or magnetic. The data may be stored in part of the control unit 6. The document data storage unit 4 and the facility image data storage unit 5 may also be a cloud connected via the Internet.

[0020] The control unit 6 has a CPU that executes programs and internal memory such as a ROM or RAM that stores the programs. Based on information input from the input unit 2, the control unit 6 acquires document data or facility image data stored in the document data storage unit 4 and the facility image data storage unit 5, and displays the data on the output unit 3. It is also preferable that the control unit 6 acquires document data related to the facility from the document data storage unit 4 and links the document data so that it can be displayed on the output unit 3 when a document icon for facility image data is selected from the input unit 2.

[0021] FIG. 2 shows an example of how to use the facility information viewing system of this embodiment.

[0022] First, in step 1, the input unit 2 inputs or selects a document or facility to be viewed from document data, which is a digitalized version of documents related to multiple facilities, or facility image data, which is a digitalized version of images of multiple facilities (ST1). The document data is stored in the document data storage unit 4, and the facility image data is stored in the facility image data storage unit 5.

[0023] FIG. 3 shows an example of the input unit 2 of the facility information viewing system of this embodiment.

[0024] The input unit 2 of this embodiment is made up of a touch panel, and allows the user to select either facility image data or document data.

[0025] Next, in step 2, the control unit 6 determines whether or not facility image data has been selected from the input unit 2 (ST2). Whether or not the facility image data has been selected can be determined by whether or not the facility image data has been touched on the input unit 2 shown in FIG.

[0026] If it is determined in step 2 that facility image data has been selected from the input unit 2, then in step 3 the control unit 6 acquires and outputs facility image data of the facility to be viewed from the facility image data based on the facility to be viewed that has been input or selected (ST3). If no facility image data has been selected from the input unit 2 in step 2, the process proceeds to step 6.

[0027] FIG. 4 shows an example of facility image data of the facility information viewing system of this embodiment.

[0028] The output unit 3 of this embodiment comprises a display such as a touch panel, and displays facility image data as shown in FIG. 4. The facility image data in the example shown in FIG. 4 is for one floor, and displays a 3D image of the facility, including the ceiling, corridors, walls, and pillars. Since the facility image data is 360° and 3D data, when a user traces the image shown in FIG. 4 with a finger, the image rotates in the direction of tracing, with the user at the center. Furthermore, when the user double-clicks on a corridor, the user moves as if they had proceeded to that position. In other words, it is preferable that the facility image appear as if the user is actually present at that location.

[0029] Next, in step 4, the control unit 6 determines whether or not a document icon indicating document data has been selected from the facility image (ST4). As shown in Fig. 4, document icons such as "construction," "equipment," and "electricity" are displayed for each facility on the facility image. It is sufficient to determine whether or not these document icons have been touched.

[0030] In step 4, if the input unit 2 does not select a document icon from the facility image, the process returns to step 3. In step 4, if the input unit 2 selects a document icon from the facility image, in step 5 the control unit 6 acquires document data related to the facility from the document data storage unit 4 and outputs it to the output unit 3 (ST5).

[0031] FIG. 5 shows an example of a document data selection screen of the facility information viewing system of this embodiment.

[0032] When document data is selected, the document data selection screen shown in Fig. 5 is displayed so that the user can select which document data to display from among the multiple document data. When the user selects a document to view from the document data selection screen displayed on input unit 2, the selected document is displayed on output unit 3.

[0033] The selection of document data in step 5 involves selecting one of the document data for the facility previously selected in step 4. For example, if the electrical icon shown in Fig. 4 is selected in step 4 and the instruction manual shown in Fig. 5 is selected, the output unit 3 displays the instruction manual for the electrical facility on the ceiling.

[0034] If facility image data is not selected from the input unit 2 in step 2, it is determined in step 6 whether or not a document has been selected (ST6).

[0035] If a document is selected in step 6, the control unit 6 acquires and outputs document data of the document to be viewed based on the input or selected document to be viewed in step 7 (ST7). If a document is not selected in step 6, the process returns to step 1.

[0036] When document data is selected, the document data selection screen shown in Figure 5 is displayed so that the user can select which document data to display. The document data selection in step 7 involves selecting one of the document data. However, at this stage, the document data of which facility has not been selected, so when the user selects the document to view from the document data selection screen, a list of facilities is displayed.

[0037] Fig. 6 shows an example of a list of instruction manuals for the facility information viewing system of this embodiment. Fig. 7 shows an example of an instruction manual for the facility information viewing system of this embodiment.

[0038] For example, if the user selects the instruction manual icon shown in FIG. 5 in step 7 and then selects the mini kitchen shown in FIG. 6, the control unit 6 will display the instruction manual for the mini kitchen shown in FIG. 7 on the output unit 3.

[0039] FIG. 8 shows another example of facility image data of the facility information viewing system of this embodiment.

[0040] The facility image data in the example shown in Fig. 8 is for one floor, and facility images such as the ceiling, walls, floor, and windows are displayed in 3D. Icons such as "documents," "links," or "emails" are displayed for each facility in the facility image. When the document icon is selected, the same process as in step 5 is performed.

[0041] When a link icon is selected from the input unit 2, the control unit 6 displays, on the output unit 3, a link destination that displays, for example, a video file of inspection, maintenance, or repair work for the selected facility, or information on purchasing parts related to the selected facility or renovations. When an email icon is selected from the input unit 2, the control unit 6 displays, on the output unit 3, a contact screen for sending an email to a management company regarding the selected facility or a repair request to a repair company.

[0042] Alternatively, it may be possible to connect directly to an operator and have a conversation with them about inquiries, etc. It is preferable to automatically include the model number, serial number, etc. of the facility in the link or email information, so that related information can be displayed immediately.

[0043] In this way, users can quickly move to links related to the facility and obtain various information about the facility. Users can also quickly send inquiries about the facility by email.

[0044] As described above, the facility information viewing system 1 of this embodiment comprises a document data storage unit 4 that stores document data obtained by digitizing documents related to multiple facilities; a facility image data storage unit 5 that stores facility image data obtained by digitizing images of multiple facilities; an input unit 2 through which a user inputs or selects the document or facility to be viewed from the document data stored in the document data storage unit 4 or the facility image data stored in the facility image data storage unit 5; a control unit 6 that acquires the document or facility to be viewed from the document data stored in the document data storage unit 4 or the facility image data stored in the facility image data storage unit 5 based on the document or facility to be viewed input or selected from the input unit 2; and an output unit 3 that displays the document or facility to be viewed acquired by the control unit 6.

[0045] Therefore, there is no longer a need to create paper handover documents, reducing labor. Also, there is no need to store heavy paper documents for each facility, allowing for more efficient use of storage space. Furthermore, information on the target facility can be viewed quickly and easily. Furthermore, if the system is configured to allow viewing of images of the facility under construction, information on hidden areas can also be viewed.

[0046] In addition, in the facility information viewing system 1 of this embodiment, the facility image data is 360° and 3D image data of the facility, so the user can get the feeling that they are actually present at the location on the screen, and can operate it in an easy and understandable way.

[0047] Furthermore, in the facility information viewing system 1 of this embodiment, the facility image data includes a document icon that allows document data related to the facility to be selected, and when a document icon is selected from the input unit 2, the control unit 6 acquires the document data related to the facility from the document data storage unit 4 and outputs it to the output unit 3. Therefore, the user can select the document of the target facility from the image of the facility, allowing for easy and straightforward operation.

[0048] Furthermore, in the facility information viewing system 1 of this embodiment, the document data storage unit 4 stores multiple types of document data for a facility, and the control unit 6 can input and output multiple types of document data to and from the facility. Therefore, the user can select a document for the target facility from an image of the facility, and can also select a document for the target facility from other documents for the facility, allowing for easy and straightforward operation.

[0049] In addition, in the facility information viewing system 1 of this embodiment, the facility image data includes at least one of a link icon that allows selection of a link destination corresponding to the facility, or an email icon that allows selection of a contact point for inquiries regarding the facility, and when a link icon is selected from the input unit 2, the control unit 6 outputs the link destination corresponding to the facility to the output unit 3, and when a email icon is selected from the input unit 2, the control unit 6 outputs the contact point for inquiries regarding the facility to the output unit 3.

[0050] Therefore, users can quickly move to links related to the facility and obtain various information about the facility. Users can also quickly send inquiries about the facility by email.

[0051] It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and although the description of the embodiments includes many specific details for illustrative purposes, those skilled in the art may make various variations and modifications to these details.
