[0124] In today's busy lifestyles, many people find it difficult to perform housework efficiently and enjoyably. Managing household tasks and maintaining motivation are particularly challenging. Furthermore, there is a lack of systems that provide tangible rewards for completing household tasks. To address these issues, a system that efficiently manages household tasks and improves motivation is needed.

[0125] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the first embodiment is realized by the following means.

[0126] In this invention, the server includes means for a user to access the system using authentication information, means for acquiring and displaying a housework task list after authentication, means for receiving reports of housework task completion, adding points and updating accumulated points, means for a user to set a housework schedule and reminders and send reminders based on that information, means for processing questions entered by a user using a generative AI model and providing advice, means for exchanging a user's accumulated points for gift certificates or discount coupons, and means for updating rankings based on accumulated points and sending side job offers. This allows users to efficiently manage housework tasks and stay motivated by receiving rewards.

[0127] "Authentication Information" means information such as ID and password that a user enters to be granted access to a system.

[0128] A "household task list" is a list of household tasks that a user plans to perform.

[0129] "Task completion report" refers to the act of notifying the system when a user has completed a household task.

[0130] "Points" are a numerical value given to users as they complete household tasks, and can be accumulated and exchanged for rewards.

[0131] "Accumulated Points" means the total number of points a User has earned by completing household tasks.

[0132] "Reminders" is a function that notifies users of the due dates for household schedules and tasks they have set.

[0133] A "generative AI model" is a technology that uses artificial intelligence to automatically generate and analyze specific tasks.

[0134] "Advice" means advice or suggestions provided in response to a user's question using a generative AI model.

[0135] "Gift certificates and discount coupons" are rewards that can be obtained by exchanging accumulated points and can be used to make purchases at stores or to use services.

[0136] "Ranking" shows the user's ranking compared to other users based on their accumulated points.

[0137] "Side job offers" are suggestions for additional work or assignments provided to users who rank highly on the rankings.

[0138] A "server" is a computer system that provides services to clients over a network.

[0139] A "terminal" is a device, such as a smartphone or tablet, that a user uses to access the system.

[0140] This invention is a system that utilizes a generative AI model to manage household tasks and improve motivation. This system provides multiple functions that allow users to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably. The specific configuration and operation are described below.

[0141] composition

[0142] This system mainly consists of the following three components:

[0143] 1. Server: Manages data and performs various calculations.

[0144] 2. Device: The smartphone or tablet used by the user.

[0145] 3. Generative AI model: An artificial intelligence model used to provide suggestions and advice to users.

[0146] operation

[0147] 1. Authentication and task list acquisition

[0148] The user starts the application using a device and enters authentication information (ID, password) on the login screen. The device sends the authentication information to the server, which then authenticates the user by referencing the database. If authentication is successful, the server retrieves the user's housework task list from the database and sends it to the device. The device displays the received task list, allowing the user to select which task to perform.

[0149] 2. Complete tasks and earn points

[0150] When the user completes a task, they press the task completion button in the app to report the completion. The device then sends the completion report to the server, which adds points corresponding to the task to the user's account. The server then updates the progress of the household chore, calculates the user's accumulated points, and sends the updated points to the device, which then displays them to the user.

[0151] 3. Providing reminders and advice

[0152] The user inputs their housework schedule and reminder settings into the app. The server generates reminders based on that schedule and sends them to the device at the specified time. The device then notifies the user of the reminder. When the user inputs a housework-related question into the app, the device sends the question to the server, which then uses a generative AI model to generate advice. The generated advice is then sent from the server to the device and displayed to the user.

[0153] 4. Household Reward Program

[0154] The user checks their accumulated points on the app and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they wish to exchange. The device sends the selection to the server, which then checks the accumulated points and deducts them. Once the reward exchange procedure is complete, the device notifies the user. The server also periodically updates the rankings based on the users' accumulated points, and generates side job offers for users who rank highly and notifies the device. The device can then provide the offer information to the user and display detailed information.

[0155] Specific examples

[0156] For example, let's consider the case where "User A" sets cooking, laundry, and cleaning tasks for weekdays. When User A completes the cooking task on a weekday morning, he or she presses the "Cooking Task Completed" button on the app. In response, the device reports task completion to the server, and the server adds the points corresponding to the cooking task to User A's accumulated points. The server then sends the new accumulated points and ranking to the device, and the device displays the results to User A. Additionally, on Saturday morning, the server sends a notification to the device reminding User A that it's "cleaning time," allowing User A to start cleaning. Points are also added when cleaning is completed, and when a certain number of accumulated points are reached, they can be exchanged for gift certificates.

[0157] Prompt Sentence Examples

[0158] "Please tell me the best way to clean it."

[0159] "Please tell me how to cook efficiently."

[0302] 2. Points management and reward system

[0303] server

[0304] The server that receives the task completion information adds points to the user's account. These points can be exchanged for gift certificates or discount coupons once a certain number of points have been accumulated.

[0305] Terminal

[0306] After completing a task, the device will display the points added and accumulated to the user, and also provide the option to redeem rewards when a certain number of points are reached.

[0307] User

[0308] Users can check their accumulated points and select rewards to exchange. Once a reward is exchanged, coupon information will be displayed on their smart device, which users can use in physical stores.

[0309] 3. Providing reminders and advice

[0310] server

[0311] The server generates reminders based on the user's housework schedule and sends notifications to the device at the specified time. It also uses a generative AI model to generate advice in response to the user's housework-related questions.

[0312] Terminal

[0313] The device notifies the user at the specified reminder time, and when the user inputs a question about housework, it displays advice obtained from the server.

[0314] User

[0315] Users can receive reminder notifications about household tasks to ensure they are completed in a timely manner, and can also input household questions into the app and receive advice from a generative AI model.

[0316] Examples of concrete examples and prompts

[0317] Specific examples

[0318] For example, suppose a user selects and completes a room cleaning task using smart glasses. After completing the task, the device displays "Cleaning task completed," and the server adds points to the user's accumulated points. Also, by specifying "Cleaning the living room" as a reminder, the user can be notified at the specified time. Furthermore, by inputting a question such as "Tell me some tips for cleaning windows," specific advice is displayed by the generative AI model.

[0319] Prompt Sentence Examples

[0320] "What's your recommendation for dinner tonight?"

[0321] "Tell me some window cleaning tips"

[0322] "What is an effective way to clean rugs?"

[0323] As a result, the system of the present invention can improve the efficiency of household task management and enrich the user's life.

[0324] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[0325] Step 1:

[0326] A user logs into the app through a device.

[0327] Input: ID and password

[0328] Data processing / calculation: The device sends the user's authentication information to the server, which checks it against its database. If the check is successful, authentication is complete.

[0329] Output: A successful authentication message is sent to the terminal and the user is presented with a login screen.

[0330] Step 2:

[0331] The user's housework task list is obtained from the server and sent to the terminal.

[0332] Input: User information after successful authentication

[0333] Data processing / calculation: The server searches the database for the user's household task list and sends it to the device in JSON format.

[0334] Output: A list of household tasks is displayed on the terminal, from which the user can select a task to perform.

[0335] Step 3:

[0336] The user completes a household task and presses a task completion button on the terminal.

[0337] Input: Task completion report

[0338] Data processing / calculation: The device sends task completion information to the server, which records the information in a database and adds points to the user's account according to the task.

[0339] Output: A message will be displayed on the terminal confirming the completion of the task and the addition of points.

[0340] Step 4:

[0341] The server updates the task completion status and calculates the accumulated points.

[0342] Input: Task completion report and current accumulated points

[0343] Data processing / calculation: The server reflects the task completion status in the database and calculates the latest accumulated points.

[0344] Output: The latest accumulated points are sent to the terminal and displayed to the user.

[0345] Step 5:

[0346] Users set reminders and advice.

[0347] Input: Reminder settings information and chore questions

[0348] Data processing / calculation: The server saves the reminder setting information in a database, generates reminder notifications at the specified time, and passes the question content to a generative AI model to generate advice.

[0349] Output: The reminder will be sent to the device at the specified time, and advice on the user's question will be displayed on the device.

[0350] Step 6:

[0351] Users can check their accumulated points and select rewards to exchange.

[0352] Input: Reward redemption request

[0353] Data processing / calculation: The server checks the accumulated points, subtracts points, and generates rewards (gift certificates or discount coupons) and sends them to the user.

[0354] Output: A message confirming the reward redemption is complete and a coupon will be displayed on your mobile device.

[0355] Step 7:

[0356] Uses generative AI models to provide household advice.

[0357] Input: Housework question (prompt)

[0358] Data processing / calculation: The device sends the question to the server, which then uses a generative AI model to generate advice.

[0359] Output: The generated advice is displayed on the terminal, allowing the user to perform the household chores based on it.

[0360] The above are the specific processing steps for carrying out the present invention.

[0361] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotion may be combined. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may estimate the user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.

[0362] This invention is a system that utilizes a generative AI model and an emotion engine to manage household chores, provide reminders and advice, and increase user motivation through a reward program, in order to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably. The specific operation method is explained below.

[0363] 1. Managing household tasks

[0364] When a user launches the app and displays the login screen, enters their ID and password, and presses the login button, the device sends the authentication information to the server, which then authenticates them. If authentication is successful, the server retrieves the user's housework task list from the database and sends it to the device. The device then displays the received task list, and the user can select the tasks to perform from it.

[0365] When a user completes a selected task, they press the task completion button on the app screen. The device sends task completion information to the server, which confirms task completion and adds points to the user's account. The server then recalculates the user's accumulated points and ranking and sends that information to the device. The device then displays the updated ranking and points to the user. During this process, the emotion engine recognizes the user's emotions and provides appropriate feedback based on those emotions.

[0366] 2. Providing reminders and advice

[0367] The user enters a household chore schedule into the app. For example, they can set it to "do laundry every Saturday." The device sends the user's input data to the server, which then saves the reminder schedule in a database. The server periodically checks the database to see if any reminder items have been set. If so, it generates a reminder and sends it to the device. The device then displays a reminder notification to the user.

[0368] When a user enters a household-related question into the app, the device sends the question to the server, which uses a generative AI model to generate appropriate advice. The server then sends the generated advice to the device, which displays it to the user. This process also uses an emotion engine to provide customized reminders and advice based on the user's emotions.

[0369] 3. Household Reward Program

[0370] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the reward menu, and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they want. The device sends the user's selection to the server, which checks the user's accumulated points and determines whether they have enough points. The server then deducts the points and begins the gift certificate or discount coupon process. The server notifies the device that the reward exchange is complete, and the device displays a notification to the user.

[0371] The server periodically updates the rankings based on the users' accumulated points. The top ranking users are identified, and the server automatically generates a side job offer and notifies the device. The device displays the side job offer notification to the user, and the user can obtain a side job opportunity by checking the details.

[0372] Specific examples

[0373] For example, suppose "User A" sets cooking, laundry, and cleaning tasks on weekdays and earns points each time he or she completes these tasks. When User A completes the cooking task on a weekday morning and presses the "Cooking Task Completed" button, the device reports the task completion to the server, and the server adds the points for the cooking task to User A's accumulated points. Next, the emotion engine recognizes User A's emotions and provides positive feedback, such as a "sense of accomplishment" or "satisfaction." The server sends the new accumulated points and ranking to the device, which then displays them to User A.

[0374] Additionally, on Saturday mornings, the server generates a reminder saying, "It's time to clean today," and the device notifies User A of this. The emotion engine can also provide advice to reduce the stress and fatigue User A feels. Points are also added when cleaning is completed, and when a certain number of accumulated points are reached, they can be exchanged for gift certificates.

[0375] This system allows users to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably, increasing their motivation in the process. It also includes an emotion engine, allowing it to respond flexibly to the user's emotions, improving the user's quality of life.

[0376] The processing flow will be explained below.

[0377] Manage household tasks and increase motivation

[0378] Managing household tasks

[0379] Step 1:

[0380] The user launches the app and the login screen appears. The user enters their ID and password and presses the login button.

[0381] Step 2:

[0382] The device sends the user's authentication information to the server, which verifies the authentication information.

[0383] Step 3:

[0384] If the server succeeds in authentication, it retrieves a housework task list from a database based on the user information and sends it to the terminal.

[0385] Step 4:

[0386] The terminal displays the received task list on the screen, and the user selects which task to execute.

[0387] Step 5:

[0388] When the user completes the selected task, they press the task completion button on the app screen.

[0389] Step 6:

[0390] The device sends task completion information to the server, which then confirms the task completion and adds points to the user's account.

[0391] Step 7:

[0392] The emotion engine recognizes the user's emotions when completing a task and generates feedback that matches those emotions. For example, if it recognizes the user's "motivated" emotion, it sends a positive message encouraging further efforts.

[0393] Step 8:

[0394] The server recalculates the user's accumulated points and ranking and sends the information to the terminal, which displays the updated ranking and points to the user.

[0395] Providing reminders and advice

[0396] Step 1:

[0397] The user inputs a household chore schedule into the app. For example, they might set it to "do laundry every Saturday."

[0398] Step 2:

[0399] The device sends the user's input data to the server, which then saves the reminder schedule in a database.

[0400] Step 3:

[0401] The server periodically checks the database to see if there are any reminders set up, and if so, generates a reminder.

[0402] Step 4:

[0403] The server sends a reminder (e.g., "It's time to do laundry today") to the device.

[0404] Step 5:

[0405] The device displays a reminder notification to the user.

[0406] Step 6:

[0407] A user types a household-related question into the app, for example, "What's the best way to clean?"

[0408] Step 7:

[0409] The device sends the entered question to the server, which uses the generative AI model to generate appropriate advice.

[0410] Step 8:

[0411] The emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions when entering a question, and if it recognizes, for example, "confusion" or "impatience," it generates advice in a gentle tone accordingly.

[0412] Step 9:

[0413] The server sends the generated advice along with the emotion engine's feedback to the terminal, which then displays it to the user.

[0414] Housework Reward Program

[0415] Step 1:

[0416] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the rewards menu, and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they want.

[0417] Step 2:

[0418] The device sends the user's selection to the server, which checks the user's accumulated points and determines whether they are sufficient.

[0419] Step 3:

[0420] The server performs the point deduction process and starts the process of issuing gift certificates and discount coupons.

[0421] Step 4:

[0422] The server notifies the device that the reward exchange is complete, and the device displays a notification to the user.

[0423] Step 5:

[0424] The server periodically updates the rankings based on the accumulated points of users, and identifies the top ranking users.

[0425] Step 6:

[0426] The server generates a side job offer for the top ranked person and sends a notification to the terminal.

[0427] Step 7:

[0428] The emotion engine will then respond to the notifications received by the top ranking users with a message that reflects the user's current emotions. For example, if the user is feeling nervous, it will send an encouraging message to ease that tension.

[0429] Step 8:

[0430] The terminal displays a notification of a side job offer to the user, and the user can obtain a side job opportunity by checking detailed information.

[0431] Example 2

[0432] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0433] In today's busy lifestyles, efficiently managing household tasks and maintaining user motivation are major challenges. Traditional household management systems lacked the sense of accomplishment and rewards users received when completing tasks, making it difficult for them to continue using the system. Furthermore, reminders and advice were standardized, making it difficult to personalize them to reflect individual users' emotions and circumstances. Furthermore, managing reward programs was cumbersome, resulting in low user convenience.

[0434] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.

[0435] In this invention, the server includes a means for allowing users to list household chores, add points when completed, and update rankings based on accumulated points; a means for providing reminders and advice tailored to daily life and generating specific advice using a generative AI model; and a means for adding points to users each time a household chore is completed and using those points to earn rewards. This allows users to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably, increasing their motivation in the process. Furthermore, by using an emotion engine, flexible reminders and advice can be provided based on the user's emotions, improving the user experience. Furthermore, the management of the reward program is automated, increasing user convenience.

[0436] "Housework tasks" refer to work such as cleaning, laundry, and cooking that is done around the home.

[0437] "Listing" means organizing and displaying specific items as a list.

[0438] "Completion" refers to completing a scheduled household task.

[0439] "Score" refers to the evaluation value given to the user when completing a household task.

[0440] "Accumulated points" refers to the total points accumulated each time a user completes a household task.

[0441] "Ranking" refers to a system that determines the ranking of users based on accumulated points.

[0442] "Reminders" are notifications or alerts that remind users to perform specific household tasks.

[0443] "Advice" refers to specific guidance and suggestions that help users perform housework efficiently.

[0444] A "generative AI model" is a computational method or algorithm that uses artificial intelligence to generate specific information or advice.

[0445] An "emotion engine" is a system that analyzes a user's emotions and provides feedback accordingly.

[0446] "Rewards" refer to incentives such as gift certificates or discount coupons given to users who complete household tasks.

[0447] A "reward program" is a system in which points are awarded for completing household tasks and those points can be used to earn rewards.

[0448] "Side Job Offers" are opportunities to earn additional income based on a user's accumulated points and ranking.

[0449] MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[0450] This invention is a system for performing household chores efficiently and enjoyably, aiming to increase user motivation. The system utilizes a generative AI model and an emotion engine to support users' daily lives through task management, reminders and advice, and a reward program.

[0451] Managing household tasks

[0452] The user launches the dedicated app and enters their ID and password on the login screen. The device sends this authentication information to the server, which then authenticates them by comparing it with the user information in the database. If authentication is successful, the server retrieves the user's housework task list from the database and sends it to the device. The user checks the task list on the device and selects the tasks to complete. Once the task is completed, the user presses the "Task Complete" button, and the device sends task completion information to the server. The server adds points based on this information, recalculates the cumulative points and ranking, and sends them to the device. The device displays this to the user, and an emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions to provide appropriate feedback.

[0453] Providing reminders and advice

[0454] The user enters a household chore schedule into the app. For example, they might set it to "do laundry every Saturday." The device sends this data to the server, which saves the reminder schedule in a database. The server periodically checks the database and generates a reminder when the specified time arrives and sends it to the device. The device displays the reminder notification to the user, and an emotion engine provides reminders and advice that take the user's emotions into account. When the user enters a question about household chores into the app, the device sends the question to the server, which uses a generative AI model to generate appropriate advice. The server sends the advice to the device, which displays it to the user.

[0455] Housework Reward Program

[0456] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the reward menu and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they want. The terminal sends the selection information to the server, which checks the user's accumulated points and determines whether they have enough points. The server performs the point deduction process, starts the gift certificate or discount coupon procedure, and notifies the terminal of the results. The terminal displays a notification to the user that the reward exchange has been completed. The server periodically updates the rankings based on the users' accumulated points, and generates and notifies side job offers to those at the top.

[0457] Specific examples

[0458] For example, suppose User A sets cooking, laundry, and cleaning tasks for each weekday, and earns points for completing these tasks. When User A completes the cooking task, he or she presses the "Task Complete" button, and the device sends the completion information to the server, which then adds points. The emotion engine then analyzes User A's emotions and provides positive feedback. On Saturday morning, the server generates a reminder saying, "It's time to clean today," and the device notifies the user. During this process, the emotion engine can also provide advice to reduce User A's stress.

[0459] Prompt Sentence Examples

[0460] "Please provide specific advice to help users perform household chores in an enjoyable and efficient manner."

[0461] The system helps users perform household chores in an enjoyable and efficient manner, motivating them in the process and improving their quality of life by providing appropriate feedback using an emotion engine.

[0564] (Application example 2)

[0565] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0566] Conventional household management systems have problems such as making it difficult for users to perform household tasks efficiently and enjoyably, making it difficult to maintain motivation, and making it difficult to select appropriate products. These issues increase the burden of housework and can reduce users' quality of life. In particular, the lack of emotional feedback and product recommendations based on purchase history has been a factor in reducing user satisfaction.

[0567] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0568] In this invention, the server includes a means for listing housework tasks and increasing experience points and levels with each task, a means for providing reminders and advice tailored to daily life, a means for earning points for completing specific housework tasks and exchanging them for gift certificates or discount coupons, a means for providing feedback based on the user's emotions using an emotion engine, and a means for recommending products based on past purchase history and housework trends using a generative AI model. This allows users to perform housework tasks efficiently and enjoyably, maintaining motivation and easily selecting the most suitable products.

[0569] "Household tasks" are everyday tasks that must be done around the home, such as cleaning, cooking, and laundry.

[0570] "Listing" means organizing multiple items into a list format.

[0571] "Experience points" are points or numbers that users earn by performing household tasks, and represent growth and progress.

[0572] "Leveling up" means that a user's achievements and skills improve gradually as they gain a certain amount of experience.

[0573] "Reminders" is a feature that notifies users of specific tasks or actions to remind them to do them.

[0574] "Advice" is information that provides users with tips and suggestions to help them perform household chores more efficiently.

[0575] "Points" are a numerical value that users receive as a reward for completing household tasks.

[0576] A "gift certificate" is a voucher that can be exchanged for a specific amount of money or service.

[0577] A "discount coupon" is a ticket that can be used to get a discount on the price of a specific product when purchased.

[0578] An "emotion engine" is software that has the ability to analyze a user's emotions and provide appropriate feedback and responses based on those emotions.

[0579] A "generative AI model" is an algorithm that uses artificial intelligence to analyze a user's history and tendencies and generate optimal tasks and products.

[0580] "Product recommendation" refers to the act or function of selecting and suggesting products that users need.

[0581] "Feedback" means providing an individual with evaluations or comments about their behavior or results.

[0582] "Purchase history" refers to a record of products and services a user has purchased in the past.

[0583] This invention is a system that utilizes generative AI models and emotion engines to help users perform household tasks efficiently and enjoyably, and improves user motivation through task management, reminders and advice, and reward programs.

[0584] Managing household tasks

[0585] The user launches the application, enters authentication information on the login screen, and presses the login button. At this time, the device sends the authentication information to the server, which then performs authentication. If authentication is successful, the server retrieves the user's housework task list from the database and sends it to the device. The device displays the received task list, and the user selects the task to perform. After completing a task, the device presses the task completion button, which causes the device to send task completion information to the server, and the server adds points to the user's account. This allows the emotion engine to recognize the user's emotions and provide appropriate feedback.

[0586] Providing reminders and advice

[0587] When a user enters their household chore schedule into the app, the device sends the data to the server, which then saves the reminder schedule in a database. The server periodically checks the database and, if there are any scheduled reminders, generates a reminder and sends it to the device. Additionally, when a user enters a household chore-related question into the app, the server uses a generative AI model to generate appropriate advice and sends it to the device. This process also uses an emotion engine to provide customized reminders and advice based on the user's emotions.

[0588] Rewards Program

[0589] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the reward menu, and selects a gift certificate or discount coupon. The user's selection is sent from the device to the server, which checks their point balance and performs a subtraction process. Once the points have been exchanged for a gift certificate or coupon, the server notifies the user, and the device displays a notification. Furthermore, the server periodically updates the ranking based on accumulated points, and notifies top users of side job offers.

[0590] Hardware and software used

[0591] Core technology: Python

[0592] Emotion engine: emotion_engine function (simulation), analyzes the user's emotional state and generates feedback

[0775] When the user completes a task, they press the task completion button in the app to report the completion. The device then sends the completion report to the server, which adds points corresponding to the task to the user's account. The server then updates the progress of the household chore, calculates the user's accumulated points, and sends the updated points to the device, which then displays them to the user.

[0776] 3. Providing reminders and advice

[0777] The user inputs their housework schedule and reminder settings into the app. The server generates reminders based on that schedule and sends them to the device at the specified time. The device then notifies the user of the reminder. When the user inputs a housework-related question into the app, the device sends the question to the server, which then uses a generative AI model to generate advice. The generated advice is then sent from the server to the device and displayed to the user.

[0778] 4. Household Reward Program

[0779] The user checks their accumulated points on the app and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they wish to exchange. The device sends the selection to the server, which then checks the accumulated points and deducts them. Once the reward exchange procedure is complete, the device notifies the user. The server also periodically updates the rankings based on the users' accumulated points, and generates side job offers for users who rank highly and notifies the device. The device can then provide the offer information to the user and display detailed information.

[0780] Specific examples

[0781] For example, let's consider the case where "User A" sets cooking, laundry, and cleaning tasks for weekdays. When User A completes the cooking task on a weekday morning, he or she presses the "Cooking Task Completed" button on the app. In response, the device reports task completion to the server, and the server adds the points corresponding to the cooking task to User A's accumulated points. The server then sends the new accumulated points and ranking to the device, and the device displays the results to User A. Additionally, on Saturday morning, the server sends a notification to the device reminding User A that it's "cleaning time," allowing User A to start cleaning. Points are also added when cleaning is completed, and when a certain number of accumulated points are reached, they can be exchanged for gift certificates.

[0782] Prompt Sentence Examples

[0936] The server generates reminders based on the user's housework schedule and sends notifications to the device at the specified time. It also uses a generative AI model to generate advice in response to the user's housework-related questions.

[0937] Terminal

[0938] The device notifies the user at the specified reminder time, and when the user inputs a question about housework, it displays advice obtained from the server.

[0939] User

[0940] Users can receive reminder notifications about household tasks to ensure they are completed in a timely manner, and can also input household questions into the app and receive advice from a generative AI model.

[0941] Examples of concrete examples and prompts

[0942] Specific examples

[0943] For example, suppose a user selects and completes a room cleaning task using smart glasses. After completing the task, the device displays "Cleaning task completed," and the server adds points to the user's accumulated points. Also, by specifying "Cleaning the living room" as a reminder, the user can be notified at the specified time. Furthermore, by inputting a question such as "Tell me some tips for cleaning windows," specific advice is displayed by the generative AI model.

[0944] Prompt Sentence Examples

[0945] "What's your recommendation for dinner tonight?"

[0946] "Tell me some window cleaning tips"

[0947] "What is an effective way to clean rugs?"

[0948] As a result, the system of the present invention can improve the efficiency of household task management and enrich the user's life.

[0949] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[0950] Step 1:

[0951] A user logs into the app through a device.

[0952] Input: ID and password

[0953] Data processing / calculation: The device sends the user's authentication information to the server, which checks it against its database. If the check is successful, authentication is complete.

[0954] Output: A successful authentication message is sent to the terminal and the user is presented with a login screen.

[0955] Step 2:

[0956] The user's housework task list is obtained from the server and sent to the terminal.

[0957] Input: User information after successful authentication

[0958] Data processing / calculation: The server searches the database for the user's household task list and sends it to the device in JSON format.

[0959] Output: A list of household tasks is displayed on the terminal, from which the user can select a task to perform.

[0960] Step 3:

[0961] The user completes a household task and presses a task completion button on the terminal.

[0962] Input: Task completion report

[0963] Data processing / calculation: The device sends task completion information to the server, which records the information in a database and adds points to the user's account according to the task.

[0964] Output: A message will be displayed on the terminal confirming the completion of the task and the addition of points.

[0965] Step 4:

[0966] The server updates the task completion status and calculates the accumulated points.

[0967] Input: Task completion report and current accumulated points

[0968] Data processing / calculation: The server reflects the task completion status in the database and calculates the latest accumulated points.

[0969] Output: The latest accumulated points are sent to the terminal and displayed to the user.

[0970] Step 5:

[0971] Users set reminders and advice.

[0972] Input: Reminder settings information and chore questions

[0973] Data processing / calculation: The server saves the reminder setting information in a database, generates reminder notifications at the specified time, and passes the question content to a generative AI model to generate advice.

[0974] Output: The reminder will be sent to the device at the specified time, and advice on the user's question will be displayed on the device.

[0975] Step 6:

[0976] Users can check their accumulated points and select rewards to exchange.

[0977] Input: Reward redemption request

[0978] Data processing / calculation: The server checks the accumulated points, subtracts points, and generates rewards (gift certificates or discount coupons) and sends them to the user.

[0979] Output: A message confirming the reward redemption is complete and a coupon will be displayed on your mobile device.

[0980] Step 7:

[0981] Uses generative AI models to provide household advice.

[0982] Input: Housework question (prompt)

[0983] Data processing / calculation: The device sends the question to the server, which then uses a generative AI model to generate advice.

[0984] Output: The generated advice is displayed on the terminal, allowing the user to perform the household chores based on it.

[0985] The above are the specific processing steps for carrying out the present invention.

[0986] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotion may be further combined. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may estimate the user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59, and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.

[0987] This invention is a system that utilizes a generative AI model and an emotion engine to manage household chores, provide reminders and advice, and increase user motivation through a reward program, in order to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably. The specific operation method is explained below.

[0988] 1. Managing household tasks

[0989] When a user launches the app and displays the login screen, enters their ID and password, and presses the login button, the device sends the authentication information to the server, which then authenticates them. If authentication is successful, the server retrieves the user's housework task list from the database and sends it to the device. The device then displays the received task list, and the user can select the tasks to perform from it.

[0990] When a user completes a selected task, they press the task completion button on the app screen. The device sends task completion information to the server, which confirms task completion and adds points to the user's account. The server then recalculates the user's accumulated points and ranking and sends that information to the device. The device then displays the updated ranking and points to the user. During this process, the emotion engine recognizes the user's emotions and provides appropriate feedback based on those emotions.

[0991] 2. Providing reminders and advice

[0992] The user enters a household chore schedule into the app. For example, they can set it to "do laundry every Saturday." The device sends the user's input data to the server, which then saves the reminder schedule in a database. The server periodically checks the database to see if any reminder items have been set. If so, it generates a reminder and sends it to the device. The device then displays a reminder notification to the user.

[0993] When a user enters a household-related question into the app, the device sends the question to the server, which uses a generative AI model to generate appropriate advice. The server then sends the generated advice to the device, which displays it to the user. This process also uses an emotion engine to provide customized reminders and advice based on the user's emotions.

[0994] 3. Household Reward Program

[0995] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the reward menu, and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they want. The device sends the user's selection to the server, which checks the user's accumulated points and determines whether they have enough points. The server then deducts the points and begins the gift certificate or discount coupon process. The server notifies the device that the reward exchange is complete, and the device displays a notification to the user.

[0996] The server periodically updates the rankings based on the users' accumulated points. The top ranking users are identified, and the server automatically generates a side job offer and notifies the device. The device displays the side job offer notification to the user, and the user can obtain a side job opportunity by checking the details.

[0997] Specific examples

[0998] For example, suppose "User A" sets cooking, laundry, and cleaning tasks on weekdays and earns points each time he or she completes these tasks. When User A completes the cooking task on a weekday morning and presses the "Cooking Task Completed" button, the device reports the task completion to the server, and the server adds the points for the cooking task to User A's accumulated points. Next, the emotion engine recognizes User A's emotions and provides positive feedback, such as a "sense of accomplishment" or "satisfaction." The server sends the new accumulated points and ranking to the device, which then displays them to User A.

[0999] Additionally, on Saturday mornings, the server generates a reminder saying, "It's time to clean today," and the device notifies User A of this. The emotion engine can also provide advice to reduce the stress and fatigue User A feels. Points are also added when cleaning is completed, and when a certain number of accumulated points are reached, they can be exchanged for gift certificates.

[1000] This system allows users to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably, increasing their motivation in the process. It also includes an emotion engine, allowing it to respond flexibly to the user's emotions, improving the user's quality of life.

[1001] The processing flow will be explained below.

[1002] Manage household tasks and increase motivation

[1003] Managing household tasks

[1004] Step 1:

[1005] The user launches the app and the login screen appears. The user enters their ID and password and presses the login button.

[1006] Step 2:

[1007] The device sends the user's authentication information to the server, which verifies the authentication information.

[1008] Step 3:

[1009] If the server succeeds in authentication, it retrieves a housework task list from a database based on the user information and sends it to the terminal.

[1010] Step 4:

[1011] The terminal displays the received task list on the screen, and the user selects which task to execute.

[1012] Step 5:

[1013] When the user completes the selected task, they press the task completion button on the app screen.

[1014] Step 6:

[1015] The device sends task completion information to the server, which then confirms the task completion and adds points to the user's account.

[1016] Step 7:

[1017] The emotion engine recognizes the user's emotions when completing a task and generates feedback that matches those emotions. For example, if it recognizes the user's "motivated" emotion, it sends a positive message encouraging further efforts.

[1018] Step 8:

[1019] The server recalculates the user's accumulated points and ranking and sends the information to the terminal, which displays the updated ranking and points to the user.

[1020] Providing reminders and advice

[1021] Step 1:

[1022] The user inputs a household chore schedule into the app. For example, they might set it to "do laundry every Saturday."

[1023] Step 2:

[1024] The device sends the user's input data to the server, which then saves the reminder schedule in a database.

[1025] Step 3:

[1026] The server periodically checks the database to see if there are any reminders set up, and if so, generates a reminder.

[1027] Step 4:

[1028] The server sends a reminder (e.g., "It's time to do laundry today") to the device.

[1029] Step 5:

[1030] The device displays a reminder notification to the user.

[1031] Step 6:

[1032] A user types a household-related question into the app, for example, "What's the best way to clean?"

[1033] Step 7:

[1034] The device sends the entered question to the server, which uses the generative AI model to generate appropriate advice.

[1035] Step 8:

[1036] The emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions when entering a question, and if it recognizes, for example, "confusion" or "impatience," it generates advice in a gentle tone accordingly.

[1037] Step 9:

[1038] The server sends the generated advice along with the emotion engine's feedback to the terminal, which then displays it to the user.

[1039] Housework Reward Program

[1040] Step 1:

[1041] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the rewards menu, and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they want.

[1042] Step 2:

[1043] The device sends the user's selection to the server, which checks the user's accumulated points and determines whether they are sufficient.

[1044] Step 3:

[1045] The server performs the point deduction process and starts the process of issuing gift certificates and discount coupons.

[1046] Step 4:

[1047] The server notifies the device that the reward exchange is complete, and the device displays a notification to the user.

[1048] Step 5:

[1049] The server periodically updates the rankings based on the accumulated points of users, and identifies the top ranking users.

[1050] Step 6:

[1051] The server generates a side job offer for the top ranked person and sends a notification to the terminal.

[1052] Step 7:

[1053] The emotion engine will then respond to the notifications received by the top ranking users with a message that reflects the user's current emotions. For example, if the user is feeling nervous, it will send an encouraging message to ease that tension.

[1054] Step 8:

[1055] The terminal displays a notification of a side job offer to the user, and the user can obtain a side job opportunity by checking detailed information.

[1056] Example 2

[1057] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[1058] In today's busy lifestyles, efficiently managing household tasks and maintaining user motivation are major challenges. Traditional household management systems lacked the sense of accomplishment and rewards users received when completing tasks, making it difficult for them to continue using the system. Furthermore, reminders and advice were standardized, making it difficult to personalize them to reflect individual users' emotions and circumstances. Furthermore, managing reward programs was cumbersome, resulting in low user convenience.

[1059] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.

[1060] In this invention, the server includes a means for allowing users to list household chores, add points when completed, and update rankings based on accumulated points; a means for providing reminders and advice tailored to daily life and generating specific advice using a generative AI model; and a means for adding points to users each time a household chore is completed and using those points to earn rewards. This allows users to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably, increasing their motivation in the process. Furthermore, by using an emotion engine, flexible reminders and advice can be provided based on the user's emotions, improving the user experience. Furthermore, the management of the reward program is automated, increasing user convenience.

[1074] MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[1075] This invention is a system for performing household chores efficiently and enjoyably, aiming to increase user motivation. The system utilizes a generative AI model and an emotion engine to support users' daily lives through task management, reminders and advice, and a reward program.

[1076] Managing household tasks

[1077] The user launches the dedicated app and enters their ID and password on the login screen. The device sends this authentication information to the server, which then authenticates them by comparing it with the user information in the database. If authentication is successful, the server retrieves the user's housework task list from the database and sends it to the device. The user checks the task list on the device and selects the tasks to complete. Once the task is completed, the user presses the "Task Complete" button, and the device sends task completion information to the server. The server adds points based on this information, recalculates the cumulative points and ranking, and sends them to the device. The device displays this to the user, and an emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions to provide appropriate feedback.

[1078] Providing reminders and advice

[1079] The user enters a household chore schedule into the app. For example, they might set it to "do laundry every Saturday." The device sends this data to the server, which saves the reminder schedule in a database. The server periodically checks the database and generates a reminder when the specified time arrives and sends it to the device. The device displays the reminder notification to the user, and an emotion engine provides reminders and advice that take the user's emotions into account. When the user enters a question about household chores into the app, the device sends the question to the server, which uses a generative AI model to generate appropriate advice. The server sends the advice to the device, which displays it to the user.

[1080] Housework Reward Program

[1081] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the reward menu and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they want. The terminal sends the selection information to the server, which checks the user's accumulated points and determines whether they have enough points. The server performs the point deduction process, starts the gift certificate or discount coupon procedure, and notifies the terminal of the results. The terminal displays a notification to the user that the reward exchange has been completed. The server periodically updates the rankings based on the users' accumulated points, and generates and notifies side job offers to those at the top.

[1082] Specific examples

[1083] For example, suppose User A sets cooking, laundry, and cleaning tasks for each weekday, and earns points for completing these tasks. When User A completes the cooking task, he or she presses the "Task Complete" button, and the device sends the completion information to the server, which then adds points. The emotion engine then analyzes User A's emotions and provides positive feedback. On Saturday morning, the server generates a reminder saying, "It's time to clean today," and the device notifies the user. During this process, the emotion engine can also provide advice to reduce User A's stress.

[1084] Prompt Sentence Examples

[1085] "Please provide specific advice to help users perform household chores in an enjoyable and efficient manner."

[1086] The system helps users perform household chores in an enjoyable and efficient manner, motivating them in the process and improving their quality of life by providing appropriate feedback using an emotion engine.

[1189] (Application example 2)

[1190] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[1191] Conventional household management systems have problems such as making it difficult for users to perform household tasks efficiently and enjoyably, making it difficult to maintain motivation, and making it difficult to select appropriate products. These issues increase the burden of housework and can reduce users' quality of life. In particular, the lack of emotional feedback and product recommendations based on purchase history has been a factor in reducing user satisfaction.

[1192] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.

[1193] In this invention, the server includes a means for listing housework tasks and increasing experience points and levels with each task, a means for providing reminders and advice tailored to daily life, a means for earning points for completing specific housework tasks and exchanging them for gift certificates or discount coupons, a means for providing feedback based on the user's emotions using an emotion engine, and a means for recommending products based on past purchase history and housework trends using a generative AI model. This allows users to perform housework tasks efficiently and enjoyably, maintaining motivation and easily selecting the most suitable products.

[1194] "Household tasks" are everyday tasks that must be done around the home, such as cleaning, cooking, and laundry.

[1195] "Listing" means organizing multiple items into a list format.

[1196] "Experience points" are points or numbers that users earn by performing household tasks, and represent growth and progress.

[1197] "Leveling up" means that a user's achievements and skills improve gradually as they gain a certain amount of experience.

[1198] "Reminders" is a feature that notifies users of specific tasks or actions to remind them to do them.

[1199] "Advice" is information that provides users with tips and suggestions to help them perform household chores more efficiently.

[1200] "Points" are a numerical value that users receive as a reward for completing household tasks.

[1201] A "gift certificate" is a voucher that can be exchanged for a specific amount of money or service.

[1202] A "discount coupon" is a ticket that can be used to get a discount on the price of a specific product when purchased.

[1203] An "emotion engine" is software that has the ability to analyze a user's emotions and provide appropriate feedback and responses based on those emotions.

[1204] A "generative AI model" is an algorithm that uses artificial intelligence to analyze a user's history and tendencies and generate optimal tasks and products.

[1205] "Product recommendation" refers to the act or function of selecting and suggesting products that users need.

[1206] "Feedback" means providing an individual with evaluations or comments about their behavior or results.

[1207] "Purchase history" refers to a record of products and services a user has purchased in the past.

[1208] This invention is a system that utilizes generative AI models and emotion engines to help users perform household tasks efficiently and enjoyably, and improves user motivation through task management, reminders and advice, and reward programs.

[1209] Managing household tasks

[1210] The user launches the application, enters authentication information on the login screen, and presses the login button.

If authentication is successful, the server retrieves the user's housework task list from the database and sends it to the device. The device displays the received task list, and the user selects the task to perform. After completing a task, the device presses the task completion button, which causes the device to send task completion information to the server, and the server adds points to the user's account. This allows the emotion engine to recognize the user's emotions and provide appropriate feedback.

[1211] Providing reminders and advice

[1212] When a user enters their household chore schedule into the app, the device sends the data to the server, which then saves the reminder schedule in a database. The server periodically checks the database and, if there are any scheduled reminders, generates a reminder and sends it to the device. Additionally, when a user enters a household chore-related question into the app, the server uses a generative AI model to generate appropriate advice and sends it to the device. This process also uses an emotion engine to provide customized reminders and advice based on the user's emotions.

[1213] Rewards Program

[1214] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the reward menu, and selects a gift certificate or discount coupon. The user's selection is sent from the device to the server, which checks their point balance and performs a subtraction process. Once the points have been exchanged for a gift certificate or coupon, the server notifies the user, and the device displays a notification. Furthermore, the server periodically updates the ranking based on accumulated points, and notifies top users of side job offers.

Furthermore, on Saturday morning, the server sends a notification to the device reminding User A that it's "time to clean," allowing User A to start cleaning. Points are also added when cleaning is completed, and when a certain number of accumulated points are reached, they can be exchanged for gift certificates.

[1322] In this way, the system helps users to manage household chores effectively and enjoyably by managing household tasks, providing reminders and advice, and offering a reward program.

[1323] The processing flow will be explained below.

[1324] Manage household tasks and increase motivation

[1325] Managing household tasks

[1326] Step 1:

[1327] The user launches the app and the login screen appears. The user enters their ID and password and presses the login button.

[1328] Step 2:

[1329] The device sends the user's authentication information to the server, which verifies the authentication information.

[1330] Step 3:

[1331] If the server is successful in authentication, it retrieves the household task list from the database based on the user information and sends the task list to the device.

[1332] Step 4:

[1333] The terminal displays the received task list on the screen, and the user selects the task to be executed.

[1334] Step 5:

[1335] When the user completes the selected task, they press the task completion button on the app screen.

[1336] Step 6:

[1337] The device sends task completion information to the server, which then confirms the task completion and adds points to the user's account.

[1338] Step 7:

[1339] The server recalculates the user's accumulated points and ranking and sends the information to the device, which then displays the updated ranking and points to the user.

[1340] Providing reminders and advice

[1341] Step 1:

[1342] The user inputs a household chore schedule into the app. For example, they might set it to "do laundry every Saturday."

[1343] Step 2:

[1344] The device sends the user's input data to the server, which then saves the reminder schedule in a database.

[1345] Step 3:

[1346] The server periodically checks the database to see if there are any reminders set up, and if so, generates a reminder.

[1347] Step 4:

[1348] The server sends a reminder (e.g., "It's time to do laundry today") to the device.

[1349] Step 5:

[1350] The device displays a reminder notification to the user.

[1351] Step 6:

[1352] A user types a household-related question into the app, for example, "What's the best way to clean?"

[1353] Step 7:

[1354] The device sends the entered question to the server, which uses the generative AI model to generate appropriate advice.

[1355] Step 8:

[1356] The server transmits the generated advice to the terminal, which displays the advice to the user.

[1357] Housework Reward Program

[1358] Step 1:

[1359] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the rewards menu, and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they want.

[1360] Step 2:

[1361] The device sends the user's selection to the server, which checks the user's accumulated points and determines whether they are sufficient.

[1362] Step 3:

[1363] The server performs the point deduction process and starts the process of issuing gift certificates and discount coupons.

[1364] Step 4:

[1365] The server notifies the device that the reward exchange is complete, and the device displays a notification to the user.

[1366] Step 5:

[1367] The server periodically updates the rankings based on the accumulated points of users, and identifies the top ranking players.

[1368] Step 6:

[1369] The server generates a side job offer for the top ranked person and sends a notification to the terminal.

[1370] Step 7:

[1371] The device displays a notification of the side job offer to the user, who then checks for more information.

[1372] Example 1

[1373] Next, a description will be given of Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the headset type terminal 314 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[1374] In today's busy lifestyles, many people find it difficult to perform housework efficiently and enjoyably. Managing household tasks and maintaining motivation are particularly challenging. Furthermore, there is a lack of systems that provide tangible rewards for completing household tasks. To address these issues, a system that efficiently manages household tasks and improves motivation is needed.

[1375] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the first embodiment is realized by the following means.

[1376] In this invention, the server includes means for a user to access the system using authentication information, means for acquiring and displaying a housework task list after authentication, means for receiving reports of housework task completion, adding points and updating accumulated points, means for a user to set a housework schedule and reminders and send reminders based on that information, means for processing questions entered by a user using a generative AI model and providing advice, means for exchanging a user's accumulated points for gift certificates or discount coupons, and means for updating rankings based on accumulated points and sending side job offers. This allows users to efficiently manage housework tasks and stay motivated by receiving rewards.

[1377] "Authentication Information" means information such as ID and password that a user enters to be granted access to a system.

[1378] A "household task list" is a list of household tasks that a user plans to perform.

[1379] "Task completion report" refers to the act of notifying the system when a user has completed a household task.

[1380] "Points" are a numerical value given to users as they complete household tasks, and can be accumulated and exchanged for rewards.

[1381] "Accumulated Points" means the total number of points a User has earned by completing household tasks.

[1382] "Reminders" is a function that notifies users of the due dates for household schedules and tasks they have set.

[1383] A "generative AI model" is a technology that uses artificial intelligence to automatically generate and analyze specific tasks.

[1384] "Advice" means advice or suggestions provided in response to a user's question using a generative AI model.

[1385] "Gift certificates and discount coupons" are rewards that can be obtained by exchanging accumulated points and can be used to make purchases at stores or to use services.

[1386] "Ranking" shows the user's ranking compared to other users based on their accumulated points.

[1387] "Side job offers" are suggestions for additional work or assignments provided to users who rank highly on the rankings.

[1388] A "server" is a computer system that provides services to clients over a network.

[1389] A "terminal" is a device, such as a smartphone or tablet, that a user uses to access the system.

[1390] This invention is a system that utilizes a generative AI model to manage household tasks and improve motivation. This system provides multiple functions that allow users to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably. The specific configuration and operation are described below.

[1391] composition

[1392] This system mainly consists of the following three components:

[1393] 1. Server: Manages data and performs various calculations.

[1394] 2. Device: The smartphone or tablet used by the user.

[1395] 3. Generative AI model: An artificial intelligence model used to provide suggestions and advice to users.

[1396] operation

[1397] 1. Authentication and task list acquisition

[1398] The user starts the application using a device and enters authentication information (ID, password) on the login screen. The device sends the authentication information to the server, which then authenticates the user by referencing the database. If authentication is successful, the server retrieves the user's housework task list from the database and sends it to the device. The device displays the received task list, allowing the user to select which task to perform.

[1399] 2. Complete tasks and earn points

[1400] When the user completes a task, they press the task completion button in the app to report the completion. The device then sends the completion report to the server, which adds points corresponding to the task to the user's account. The server then updates the progress of the household chore, calculates the user's accumulated points, and sends the updated points to the device, which then displays them to the user.

[1401] 3. Providing reminders and advice

[1402] The user inputs their housework schedule and reminder settings into the app. The server generates reminders based on that schedule and sends them to the device at the specified time. The device then notifies the user of the reminder. When the user inputs a housework-related question into the app, the device sends the question to the server, which then uses a generative AI model to generate advice. The generated advice is then sent from the server to the device and displayed to the user.

[1403] 4. Household Reward Program

[1404] The user checks their accumulated points on the app and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they wish to exchange. The device sends the selection to the server, which then checks the accumulated points and deducts them. Once the reward exchange procedure is complete, the device notifies the user. The server also periodically updates the rankings based on the users' accumulated points, and generates side job offers for users who rank highly and notifies the device. The device can then provide the offer information to the user and display detailed information.

[1405] Specific examples

[1406] For example, let's consider the case where "User A" sets cooking, laundry, and cleaning tasks for weekdays. When User A completes the cooking task on a weekday morning, he or she presses the "Cooking Task Completed" button on the app. In response, the device reports task completion to the server, and the server adds the points corresponding to the cooking task to User A's accumulated points. The server then sends the new accumulated points and ranking to the device, and the device displays the results to User A. Additionally, on Saturday morning, the server sends a notification to the device reminding User A that it's "cleaning time," allowing User A to start cleaning. Points are also added when cleaning is completed, and when a certain number of accumulated points are reached, they can be exchanged for gift certificates.

[1407] Prompt Sentence Examples

[1408] "Please tell me the best way to clean it."

[1409] "Please tell me how to cook efficiently."

[1574] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[1575] Step 1:

[1576] A user logs into the app through a device.

[1577] Input: ID and password

[1578] Data processing / calculation: The device sends the user's authentication information to the server, which checks it against its database. If the check is successful, authentication is complete.

[1579] Output: A successful authentication message is sent to the terminal and the user is presented with a login screen.

[1580] Step 2:

[1581] The user's housework task list is obtained from the server and sent to the terminal.

[1582] Input: User information after successful authentication

[1583] Data processing / calculation: The server searches the database for the user's household task list and sends it to the device in JSON format.

[1584] Output: A list of household tasks is displayed on the terminal, from which the user can select a task to perform.

[1585] Step 3:

[1586] The user completes a household task and presses a task completion button on the terminal.

[1587] Input: Task completion report

[1588] Data processing / calculation: The device sends task completion information to the server, which records the information in a database and adds points to the user's account according to the task.

[1589] Output: A message will be displayed on the terminal confirming the completion of the task and the addition of points.

[1590] Step 4:

[1591] The server updates the task completion status and calculates the accumulated points.

[1592] Input: Task completion report and current accumulated points

[1593] Data processing / calculation: The server reflects the task completion status in the database and calculates the latest accumulated points.

[1594] Output: The latest accumulated points are sent to the terminal and displayed to the user.

[1595] Step 5:

[1596] Users set reminders and advice.

[1597] Input: Reminder settings information and chore questions

[1598] Data processing / calculation: The server saves the reminder setting information in a database, generates reminder notifications at the specified time, and passes the question content to a generative AI model to generate advice.

[1599] Output: The reminder will be sent to the device at the specified time, and advice on the user's question will be displayed on the device.

[1600] Step 6:

[1601] Users can check their accumulated points and select rewards to exchange.

[1602] Input: Reward redemption request

[1603] Data processing / calculation: The server checks the accumulated points, subtracts points, and generates rewards (gift certificates or discount coupons) and sends them to the user.

[1604] Output: A message confirming the reward redemption is complete and a coupon will be displayed on your mobile device.

[1605] Step 7:

[1606] Uses generative AI models to provide household advice.

[1607] Input: Housework question (prompt)

[1608] Data processing / calculation: The device sends the question to the server, which then uses a generative AI model to generate advice.

[1609] Output: The generated advice is displayed on the terminal, allowing the user to perform the household chores based on it.

[1610] The above are the specific processing steps for carrying out the present invention.

[1611] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotion may be further combined. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may estimate the user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59, and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.

[1612] This invention is a system that utilizes a generative AI model and an emotion engine to manage household chores, provide reminders and advice, and increase user motivation through a reward program, in order to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably. The specific operation method is explained below.

[1613] 1. Managing household tasks

[1614] When a user launches the app and displays the login screen, enters their ID and password, and presses the login button, the device sends the authentication information to the server, which then authenticates them. If authentication is successful, the server retrieves the user's housework task list from the database and sends it to the device. The device then displays the received task list, and the user can select the tasks to perform from it.

[1615] When a user completes a selected task, they press the task completion button on the app screen. The device sends task completion information to the server, which confirms task completion and adds points to the user's account. The server then recalculates the user's accumulated points and ranking and sends that information to the device. The device then displays the updated ranking and points to the user. During this process, the emotion engine recognizes the user's emotions and provides appropriate feedback based on those emotions.

[1616] 2. Providing reminders and advice

[1617] The user enters a household chore schedule into the app. For example, they can set it to "do laundry every Saturday." The device sends the user's input data to the server, which then saves the reminder schedule in a database. The server periodically checks the database to see if any reminder items have been set. If so, it generates a reminder and sends it to the device. The device then displays a reminder notification to the user.

[1618] When a user enters a household-related question into the app, the device sends the question to the server, which uses a generative AI model to generate appropriate advice. The server then sends the generated advice to the device, which displays it to the user. This process also uses an emotion engine to provide customized reminders and advice based on the user's emotions.

[1619] 3. Household Reward Program

[1620] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the reward menu, and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they want. The device sends the user's selection to the server, which checks the user's accumulated points and determines whether they have enough points. The server then deducts the points and begins the gift certificate or discount coupon process. The server notifies the device that the reward exchange is complete, and the device displays a notification to the user.

[1621] The server periodically updates the rankings based on the users' accumulated points. The top ranking users are identified, and the server automatically generates a side job offer and notifies the device. The device displays the side job offer notification to the user, and the user can obtain a side job opportunity by checking the details.

[1622] Specific examples

[1623] For example, suppose "User A" sets cooking, laundry, and cleaning tasks on weekdays and earns points each time he or she completes these tasks. When User A completes the cooking task on a weekday morning and presses the "Cooking Task Completed" button, the device reports the task completion to the server, and the server adds the points for the cooking task to User A's accumulated points. Next, the emotion engine recognizes User A's emotions and provides positive feedback, such as a "sense of accomplishment" or "satisfaction." The server sends the new accumulated points and ranking to the device, which then displays them to User A.

[1624] Additionally, on Saturday mornings, the server generates a reminder saying, "It's time to clean today," and the device notifies User A of this. The emotion engine can also provide advice to reduce the stress and fatigue User A feels. Points are also added when cleaning is completed, and when a certain number of accumulated points are reached, they can be exchanged for gift certificates.

[1625] This system allows users to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably, increasing their motivation in the process. It also includes an emotion engine, allowing it to respond flexibly to the user's emotions, improving the user's quality of life.

[1626] The processing flow will be explained below.

[1627] Manage household tasks and increase motivation

[1628] Managing household tasks

[1629] Step 1:

[1630] The user launches the app and the login screen appears. The user enters their ID and password and presses the login button.

[1631] Step 2:

[1632] The device sends the user's authentication information to the server, which verifies the authentication information.

[1633] Step 3:

[1634] If the server succeeds in authentication, it retrieves a housework task list from a database based on the user information and sends it to the terminal.

[1635] Step 4:

[1636] The terminal displays the received task list on the screen, and the user selects which task to execute.

[1637] Step 5:

[1638] When the user completes the selected task, they press the task completion button on the app screen.

[1639] Step 6:

[1640] The device sends task completion information to the server, which then confirms the task completion and adds points to the user's account.

[1641] Step 7:

[1642] The emotion engine recognizes the user's emotions when completing a task and generates feedback that matches those emotions. For example, if it recognizes the user's "motivated" emotion, it sends a positive message encouraging further efforts.

[1643] Step 8:

[1644] The server recalculates the user's accumulated points and ranking and sends the information to the terminal, which displays the updated ranking and points to the user.

[1645] Providing reminders and advice

[1646] Step 1:

[1647] The user inputs a household chore schedule into the app. For example, they might set it to "do laundry every Saturday."

[1648] Step 2:

[1649] The device sends the user's input data to the server, which then saves the reminder schedule in a database.

[1650] Step 3:

[1651] The server periodically checks the database to see if there are any reminders set up, and if so, generates a reminder.

[1652] Step 4:

[1653] The server sends a reminder (e.g., "It's time to do laundry today") to the device.

[1654] Step 5:

[1655] The device displays a reminder notification to the user.

[1656] Step 6:

[1657] A user types a household-related question into the app, for example, "What's the best way to clean?"

[1658] Step 7:

[1659] The device sends the entered question to the server, which uses the generative AI model to generate appropriate advice.

[1660] Step 8:

[1661] The emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions when entering a question, and if it recognizes, for example, "confusion" or "impatience," it generates advice in a gentle tone accordingly.

[1662] Step 9:

[1663] The server sends the generated advice along with the emotion engine's feedback to the terminal, which then displays it to the user.

[1664] Housework Reward Program

[1665] Step 1:

[1666] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the rewards menu, and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they want.

[1667] Step 2:

[1668] The device sends the user's selection to the server, which checks the user's accumulated points and determines whether they are sufficient.

[1669] Step 3:

[1670] The server performs the point deduction process and starts the process of issuing gift certificates and discount coupons.

[1671] Step 4:

[1672] The server notifies the device that the reward exchange is complete, and the device displays a notification to the user.

[1673] Step 5:

[1674] The server periodically updates the rankings based on the accumulated points of users, and identifies the top ranking users.

[1675] Step 6:

[1676] The server generates a side job offer for the top ranked person and sends a notification to the terminal.

[1677] Step 7:

[1678] The emotion engine will then respond to the notifications received by the top ranking users with a message that reflects the user's current emotions. For example, if the user is feeling nervous, it will send an encouraging message to ease that tension.

[1679] Step 8:

[1680] The terminal displays a notification of a side job offer to the user, and the user can obtain a side job opportunity by checking detailed information.

[1681] Example 2

[1682] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the headset type terminal 314 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[1683] In today's busy lifestyles, efficiently managing household tasks and maintaining user motivation are major challenges. Traditional household management systems lacked the sense of accomplishment and rewards users received when completing tasks, making it difficult for them to continue using the system. Furthermore, reminders and advice were standardized, making it difficult to personalize them to reflect individual users' emotions and circumstances. Furthermore, managing reward programs was cumbersome, resulting in low user convenience.

[1684] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.

[1685] In this invention, the server includes a means for allowing users to list household chores, add points when completed, and update rankings based on accumulated points; a means for providing reminders and advice tailored to daily life and generating specific advice using a generative AI model; and a means for adding points to users each time a household chore is completed and using those points to earn rewards. This allows users to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably, increasing their motivation in the process. Furthermore, by using an emotion engine, flexible reminders and advice can be provided based on the user's emotions, improving the user experience. Furthermore, the management of the reward program is automated, increasing user convenience.

[1686] "Housework tasks" refer to work such as cleaning, laundry, and cooking that is done around the home.

[1687] "Listing" means organizing and displaying specific items as a list.

[1688] "Completion" refers to completing a scheduled household task.

[1689] "Score" refers to the evaluation value given to the user when completing a household task.

[1690] "Accumulated points" refers to the total points accumulated each time a user completes a household task.

[1691] "Ranking" refers to a system that determines the ranking of users based on accumulated points.

[1692] "Reminders" are notifications or alerts that remind users to perform specific household tasks.

[1693] "Advice" refers to specific guidance and suggestions that help users perform housework efficiently.

[1694] A "generative AI model" is a computational method or algorithm that uses artificial intelligence to generate specific information or advice.

[1695] An "emotion engine" is a system that analyzes a user's emotions and provides feedback accordingly.

[1696] "Rewards" refer to incentives such as gift certificates or discount coupons given to users who complete household tasks.

[1697] A "reward program" is a system in which points are awarded for completing household tasks and those points can be used to earn rewards.

[1698] "Side Job Offers" are opportunities to earn additional income based on a user's accumulated points and ranking.

[1699] MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[1700] This invention is a system for performing household chores efficiently and enjoyably, aiming to increase user motivation. The system utilizes a generative AI model and an emotion engine to support users' daily lives through task management, reminders and advice, and a reward program.

[1701] Managing household tasks

[1702] The user launches the dedicated app and enters their ID and password on the login screen. The device sends this authentication information to the server, which then authenticates them by comparing it with the user information in the database. If authentication is successful, the server retrieves the user's housework task list from the database and sends it to the device. The user checks the task list on the device and selects the tasks to complete. Once the task is completed, the user presses the "Task Complete" button, and the device sends task completion information to the server. The server adds points based on this information, recalculates the cumulative points and ranking, and sends them to the device. The device displays this to the user, and an emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions to provide appropriate feedback.

[1703] Providing reminders and advice

[1704] The user enters a household chore schedule into the app. For example, they might set it to "do laundry every Saturday." The device sends this data to the server, which saves the reminder schedule in a database. The server periodically checks the database and generates a reminder when the specified time arrives and sends it to the device. The device displays the reminder notification to the user, and an emotion engine provides reminders and advice that take the user's emotions into account. When the user enters a question about household chores into the app, the device sends the question to the server, which uses a generative AI model to generate appropriate advice. The server sends the advice to the device, which displays it to the user.

[1705] Housework Reward Program

[1706] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the reward menu and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they want. The terminal sends the selection information to the server, which checks the user's accumulated points and determines whether they have enough points. The server performs the point deduction process, starts the gift certificate or discount coupon procedure, and notifies the terminal of the results. The terminal displays a notification to the user that the reward exchange has been completed. The server periodically updates the rankings based on the users' accumulated points, and generates and notifies side job offers to those at the top.

[1707] Specific examples

[1708] For example, suppose User A sets cooking, laundry, and cleaning tasks for each weekday, and earns points for completing these tasks. When User A completes the cooking task, he or she presses the "Task Complete" button, and the device sends the completion information to the server, which then adds points. The emotion engine then analyzes User A's emotions and provides positive feedback. On Saturday morning, the server generates a reminder saying, "It's time to clean today," and the device notifies the user. During this process, the emotion engine can also provide advice to reduce User A's stress.

[1709] Prompt Sentence Examples

[1710] "Please provide specific advice to help users perform household chores in an enjoyable and efficient manner."

[1711] The system helps users perform household chores in an enjoyable and efficient manner, motivating them in the process and improving their quality of life by providing appropriate feedback using an emotion engine.

[1814] (Application example 2)

[1815] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the headset type terminal 314 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[1816] Conventional household management systems have problems such as making it difficult for users to perform household tasks efficiently and enjoyably, making it difficult to maintain motivation, and making it difficult to select appropriate products. These issues increase the burden of housework and can reduce users' quality of life. In particular, the lack of emotional feedback and product recommendations based on purchase history has been a factor in reducing user satisfaction.

[1817] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.

[1818] In this invention, the server includes a means for listing housework tasks and increasing experience points and levels with each task, a means for providing reminders and advice tailored to daily life, a means for earning points for completing specific housework tasks and exchanging them for gift certificates or discount coupons, a means for providing feedback based on the user's emotions using an emotion engine, and a means for recommending products based on past purchase history and housework trends using a generative AI model. This allows users to perform housework tasks efficiently and enjoyably, maintaining motivation and easily selecting the most suitable products.

[1819] "Household tasks" are everyday tasks that must be done around the home, such as cleaning, cooking, and laundry.

[1820] "Listing" means organizing multiple items into a list format.

[1821] "Experience points" are points or numbers that users earn by performing household tasks, and represent growth and progress.

[1822] "Leveling up" means that a user's achievements and skills improve gradually as they gain a certain amount of experience.

[1823] "Reminders" is a feature that notifies users of specific tasks or actions to remind them to do them.

[1824] "Advice" is information that provides users with tips and suggestions to help them perform household chores more efficiently.

[1825] "Points" are a numerical value that users receive as a reward for completing household tasks.

[1826] A "gift certificate" is a voucher that can be exchanged for a specific amount of money or service.

[1827] A "discount coupon" is a ticket that can be used to get a discount on the price of a specific product when purchased.

[1828] An "emotion engine" is software that has the ability to analyze a user's emotions and provide appropriate feedback and responses based on those emotions.

[1829] A "generative AI model" is an algorithm that uses artificial intelligence to analyze a user's history and tendencies and generate optimal tasks and products.

[1830] "Product recommendation" refers to the act or function of selecting and suggesting products that users need.

[1831] "Feedback" means providing an individual with evaluations or comments about their behavior or results.

[1832] "Purchase history" refers to a record of products and services a user has purchased in the past.

[1833] This invention is a system that utilizes generative AI models and emotion engines to help users perform household tasks efficiently and enjoyably, and improves user motivation through task management, reminders and advice, and reward programs.

[1834] Managing household tasks

[1835] The user launches the application, enters authentication information on the login screen, and presses the login button. At this time, the device sends the authentication information to the server, which then performs authentication. If authentication is successful, the server retrieves the user's housework task list from the database and sends it to the device. The device displays the received task list, and the user selects the task to perform. After completing a task, the device presses the task completion button, which causes the device to send task completion information to the server, and the server adds points to the user's account. This allows the emotion engine to recognize the user's emotions and provide appropriate feedback.

[1836] Providing reminders and advice

[1837] When a user enters their household chore schedule into the app, the device sends the data to the server, which then saves the reminder schedule in a database. The server periodically checks the database and, if there are any scheduled reminders, generates a reminder and sends it to the device. Additionally, when a user enters a household chore-related question into the app, the server uses a generative AI model to generate appropriate advice and sends it to the device. This process also uses an emotion engine to provide customized reminders and advice based on the user's emotions.

[1838] Rewards Program

[1839] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the reward menu, and selects a gift certificate or discount coupon. The user's selection is sent from the device to the server, which checks their point balance and performs a subtraction process. Once the points have been exchanged for a gift certificate or coupon, the server notifies the user, and the device displays a notification. Furthermore, the server periodically updates the ranking based on accumulated points, and notifies top users of side job offers.

[1840] Hardware and software used

[1841] Core technology: Python

[1842] Emotion engine: emotion_engine function (simulation), analyzes the user's emotional state and generates feedback

[1999] Next, a description will be given of Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the robot 414 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[2000] In today's busy lifestyles, many people find it difficult to perform housework efficiently and enjoyably. Managing household tasks and maintaining motivation are particularly challenging. Furthermore, there is a lack of systems that provide tangible rewards for completing household tasks. To address these issues, a system that efficiently manages household tasks and improves motivation is needed.

[2001] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the first embodiment is realized by the following means.

[2002] In this invention, the server includes means for a user to access the system using authentication information, means for acquiring and displaying a housework task list after authentication, means for receiving reports of housework task completion, adding points and updating accumulated points, means for a user to set a housework schedule and reminders and send reminders based on that information, means for processing questions entered by a user using a generative AI model and providing advice, means for exchanging a user's accumulated points for gift certificates or discount coupons, and means for updating rankings based on accumulated points and sending side job offers. This allows users to efficiently manage housework tasks and stay motivated by receiving rewards.

[2003] "Authentication Information" means information such as ID and password that a user enters to be granted access to a system.

[2004] A "household task list" is a list of household tasks that a user plans to perform.

[2005] "Task completion report" refers to the act of notifying the system when a user has completed a household task.

[2006] "Points" are a numerical value given to users as they complete household tasks, and can be accumulated and exchanged for rewards.

[2007] "Accumulated Points" means the total number of points a User has earned by completing household tasks.

[2008] "Reminders" is a function that notifies users of the due dates for household schedules and tasks they have set.

[2009] A "generative AI model" is a technology that uses artificial intelligence to automatically generate and analyze specific tasks.

[2010] "Advice" means advice or suggestions provided in response to a user's question using a generative AI model.

[2011] "Gift certificates and discount coupons" are rewards that can be obtained by exchanging accumulated points and can be used to make purchases at stores or to use services.

[2013] "Side job offers" are suggestions for additional work or assignments provided to users who rank highly on the rankings.

[2014] A "server" is a computer system that provides services to clients over a network.

[2015] A "terminal" is a device, such as a smartphone or tablet, that a user uses to access the system.

[2016] This invention is a system that utilizes a generative AI model to manage household tasks and improve motivation. This system provides multiple functions that allow users to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably. The specific configuration and operation are described below.

[2017] composition

[2018] This system mainly consists of the following three components:

[2019] 1. Server: Manages data and performs various calculations.

[2020] 2. Device: The smartphone or tablet used by the user.

[2021] 3. Generative AI model: An artificial intelligence model used to provide suggestions and advice to users.

[2022] operation

[2023] 1. Authentication and task list acquisition

[2024] The user starts the application using a device and enters authentication information (ID, password) on the login screen. The device sends the authentication information to the server, which then authenticates the user by referencing the database. If authentication is successful, the server retrieves the user's housework task list from the database and sends it to the device. The device displays the received task list, allowing the user to select which task to perform.

[2025] 2. Complete tasks and earn points

[2026] When the user completes a task, they press the task completion button in the app to report the completion. The device then sends the completion report to the server, which adds points corresponding to the task to the user's account. The server then updates the progress of the household chore, calculates the user's accumulated points, and sends the updated points to the device, which then displays them to the user.

[2027] 3. Providing reminders and advice

[2028] The user inputs their housework schedule and reminder settings into the app. The server generates reminders based on that schedule and sends them to the device at the specified time. The device then notifies the user of the reminder. When the user inputs a housework-related question into the app, the device sends the question to the server, which then uses a generative AI model to generate advice. The generated advice is then sent from the server to the device and displayed to the user.

[2029] 4. Household Reward Program

[2030] The user checks their accumulated points on the app and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they wish to exchange. The device sends the selection to the server, which then checks the accumulated points and deducts them. Once the reward exchange procedure is complete, the device notifies the user. The server also periodically updates the rankings based on the users' accumulated points, and generates side job offers for users who rank highly and notifies the device. The device can then provide the offer information to the user and display detailed information.

[2031] Specific examples

[2032] For example, let's consider the case where "User A" sets cooking, laundry, and cleaning tasks for weekdays. When User A completes the cooking task on a weekday morning, he or she presses the "Cooking Task Completed" button on the app. In response, the device reports task completion to the server, and the server adds the points corresponding to the cooking task to User A's accumulated points. The server then sends the new accumulated points and ranking to the device, and the device displays the results to User A. Additionally, on Saturday morning, the server sends a notification to the device reminding User A that it's "cleaning time," allowing User A to start cleaning. Points are also added when cleaning is completed, and when a certain number of accumulated points are reached, they can be exchanged for gift certificates.

[2033] Prompt Sentence Examples

[2034] "Please tell me the best way to clean it."

[2035] "Please tell me how to cook efficiently."

[2171] 1. List and manage household tasks

[2172] server

[2173] The server creates a list of household chores for the user and stores the list in a database. When the user logs in from a device, the server retrieves the user's task list from the database and sends it to the device.

[2174] Terminal

[2175] The user launches the app through their smart device and enters their authentication information on the login screen. The device communicates with the server and displays a task list after completing the authentication process. The user can then select the task to be executed from this list.

[2176] User

[2177] The user selects a household task to perform and, when it is completed, presses the task completion button on the device, which then sends the task completion information to the server.

[2178] 2. Points management and reward system

[2179] server

[2180] The server that receives the task completion information adds points to the user's account. These points can be exchanged for gift certificates or discount coupons once a certain number of points have been accumulated.

[2181] Terminal

[2182] After completing a task, the device will display the points added and accumulated to the user, and also provide the option to redeem rewards when a certain number of points are reached.

[2183] User

[2184] Users can check their accumulated points and select rewards to exchange. Once a reward is exchanged, coupon information will be displayed on their smart device, which users can use in physical stores.

[2185] 3. Providing reminders and advice

[2186] server

[2187] The server generates reminders based on the user's housework schedule and sends notifications to the device at the specified time. It also uses a generative AI model to generate advice in response to the user's housework-related questions.

[2188] Terminal

[2189] The device notifies the user at the specified reminder time, and when the user inputs a question about housework, it displays advice obtained from the server.

[2190] User

[2191] Users can receive reminder notifications about household tasks to ensure they are completed in a timely manner, and can also input household questions into the app and receive advice from a generative AI model.

[2192] Examples of concrete examples and prompts

[2193] Specific examples

[2194] For example, suppose a user selects and completes a room cleaning task using smart glasses. After completing the task, the device displays "Cleaning task completed," and the server adds points to the user's accumulated points. Also, by specifying "Cleaning the living room" as a reminder, the user can be notified at the specified time. Furthermore, by inputting a question such as "Tell me some tips for cleaning windows," specific advice is displayed by the generative AI model.

[2195] Prompt Sentence Examples

[2196] "What's your recommendation for dinner tonight?"

[2197] "Tell me some window cleaning tips"

[2198] "What is an effective way to clean rugs?"

[2199] As a result, the system of the present invention can improve the efficiency of household task management and enrich the user's life.

[2200] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[2201] Step 1:

[2202] A user logs into the app through a device.

[2203] Input: ID and password

[2204] Data processing / calculation: The device sends the user's authentication information to the server, which checks it against its database. If the check is successful, authentication is complete.

[2205] Output: A successful authentication message is sent to the terminal and the user is presented with a login screen.

[2206] Step 2:

[2207] The user's housework task list is obtained from the server and sent to the terminal.

[2208] Input: User information after successful authentication

[2209] Data processing / calculation: The server searches the database for the user's household task list and sends it to the device in JSON format.

[2210] Output: A list of household tasks is displayed on the terminal, from which the user can select a task to perform.

[2211] Step 3:

[2212] The user completes a household task and presses a task completion button on the terminal.

[2213] Input: Task completion report

[2214] Data processing / calculation: The device sends task completion information to the server, which records the information in a database and adds points to the user's account according to the task.

[2215] Output: A message will be displayed on the terminal confirming the completion of the task and the addition of points.

[2216] Step 4:

[2217] The server updates the task completion status and calculates the accumulated points.

[2218] Input: Task completion report and current accumulated points

[2219] Data processing / calculation: The server reflects the task completion status in the database and calculates the latest accumulated points.

[2220] Output: The latest accumulated points are sent to the terminal and displayed to the user.

[2221] Step 5:

[2222] Users set reminders and advice.

[2223] Input: Reminder settings information and chore questions

[2224] Data processing / calculation: The server saves the reminder setting information in a database, generates reminder notifications at the specified time, and passes the question content to a generative AI model to generate advice.

[2225] Output: The reminder will be sent to the device at the specified time, and advice on the user's question will be displayed on the device.

[2226] Step 6:

[2227] Users can check their accumulated points and select rewards to exchange.

[2228] Input: Reward redemption request

[2229] Data processing / calculation: The server checks the accumulated points, subtracts points, and generates rewards (gift certificates or discount coupons) and sends them to the user.

[2230] Output: A message confirming the reward redemption is complete and a coupon will be displayed on your mobile device.

[2231] Step 7:

[2232] Uses generative AI models to provide household advice.

[2233] Input: Housework question (prompt)

[2234] Data processing / calculation: The device sends the question to the server, which then uses a generative AI model to generate advice.

[2235] Output: The generated advice is displayed on the terminal, allowing the user to perform the household chores based on it.

[2236] The above are the specific processing steps for carrying out the present invention.

[2237] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotion may be further combined. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may estimate the user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59, and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.

[2238] This invention is a system that utilizes a generative AI model and an emotion engine to manage household chores, provide reminders and advice, and increase user motivation through a reward program, in order to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably. The specific operation method is explained below.

[2239] 1. Managing household tasks

[2240] When a user launches the app and displays the login screen, enters their ID and password, and presses the login button, the device sends the authentication information to the server, which then authenticates them. If authentication is successful, the server retrieves the user's housework task list from the database and sends it to the device. The device then displays the received task list, and the user can select the tasks to perform from it.

[2241] When a user completes a selected task, they press the task completion button on the app screen. The device sends task completion information to the server, which confirms task completion and adds points to the user's account. The server then recalculates the user's accumulated points and ranking and sends that information to the device. The device then displays the updated ranking and points to the user. During this process, the emotion engine recognizes the user's emotions and provides appropriate feedback based on those emotions.

[2242] 2. Providing reminders and advice

[2243] The user enters a household chore schedule into the app. For example, they can set it to "do laundry every Saturday." The device sends the user's input data to the server, which then saves the reminder schedule in a database. The server periodically checks the database to see if any reminder items have been set. If so, it generates a reminder and sends it to the device. The device then displays a reminder notification to the user.

[2244] When a user enters a household-related question into the app, the device sends the question to the server, which uses a generative AI model to generate appropriate advice. The server then sends the generated advice to the device, which displays it to the user. This process also uses an emotion engine to provide customized reminders and advice based on the user's emotions.

[2245] 3. Household Reward Program

[2246] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the reward menu, and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they want. The device sends the user's selection to the server, which checks the user's accumulated points and determines whether they have enough points. The server then deducts the points and begins the gift certificate or discount coupon process. The server notifies the device that the reward exchange is complete, and the device displays a notification to the user.

[2247] The server periodically updates the rankings based on the users' accumulated points. The top ranking users are identified, and the server automatically generates a side job offer and notifies the device. The device displays the side job offer notification to the user, and the user can obtain a side job opportunity by checking the details.

[2248] Specific examples

[2249] For example, suppose "User A" sets cooking, laundry, and cleaning tasks on weekdays and earns points each time he or she completes these tasks. When User A completes the cooking task on a weekday morning and presses the "Cooking Task Completed" button, the device reports the task completion to the server, and the server adds the points for the cooking task to User A's accumulated points. Next, the emotion engine recognizes User A's emotions and provides positive feedback, such as a "sense of accomplishment" or "satisfaction." The server sends the new accumulated points and ranking to the device, which then displays them to User A.

[2250] Additionally, on Saturday mornings, the server generates a reminder saying, "It's time to clean today," and the device notifies User A of this. The emotion engine can also provide advice to reduce the stress and fatigue User A feels. Points are also added when cleaning is completed, and when a certain number of accumulated points are reached, they can be exchanged for gift certificates.

[2251] This system allows users to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably, increasing their motivation in the process. It also includes an emotion engine, allowing it to respond flexibly to the user's emotions, improving the user's quality of life.

[2252] The processing flow will be explained below.

[2253] Manage household tasks and increase motivation

[2254] Managing household tasks

[2255] Step 1:

[2256] The user launches the app and the login screen appears. The user enters their ID and password and presses the login button.

[2257] Step 2:

[2258] The device sends the user's authentication information to the server, which verifies the authentication information.

[2259] Step 3:

[2260] If the server succeeds in authentication, it retrieves a housework task list from a database based on the user information and sends it to the terminal.

[2261] Step 4:

[2262] The terminal displays the received task list on the screen, and the user selects which task to execute.

[2263] Step 5:

[2264] When the user completes the selected task, they press the task completion button on the app screen.

[2265] Step 6:

[2266] The device sends task completion information to the server, which then confirms the task completion and adds points to the user's account.

[2267] Step 7:

[2268] The emotion engine recognizes the user's emotions when completing a task and generates feedback that matches those emotions. For example, if it recognizes the user's "motivated" emotion, it sends a positive message encouraging further efforts.

[2269] Step 8:

[2270] The server recalculates the user's accumulated points and ranking and sends the information to the terminal, which displays the updated ranking and points to the user.

[2271] Providing reminders and advice

[2272] Step 1:

[2273] The user inputs a household chore schedule into the app. For example, they might set it to "do laundry every Saturday."

[2274] Step 2:

[2275] The device sends the user's input data to the server, which then saves the reminder schedule in a database.

[2276] Step 3:

[2277] The server periodically checks the database to see if there are any reminders set up, and if so, generates a reminder.

[2278] Step 4:

[2279] The server sends a reminder (e.g., "It's time to do laundry today") to the device.

[2280] Step 5:

[2281] The device displays a reminder notification to the user.

[2282] Step 6:

[2283] A user types a household-related question into the app, for example, "What's the best way to clean?"

[2284] Step 7:

[2285] The device sends the entered question to the server, which uses the generative AI model to generate appropriate advice.

[2286] Step 8:

[2287] The emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions when entering a question, and if it recognizes, for example, "confusion" or "impatience," it generates advice in a gentle tone accordingly.

[2288] Step 9:

[2289] The server sends the generated advice along with the emotion engine's feedback to the terminal, which then displays it to the user.

[2290] Housework Reward Program

[2291] Step 1:

[2292] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the rewards menu, and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they want.

[2293] Step 2:

[2294] The device sends the user's selection to the server, which checks the user's accumulated points and determines whether they are sufficient.

[2295] Step 3:

[2296] The server performs the point deduction process and starts the process of issuing gift certificates and discount coupons.

[2297] Step 4:

[2298] The server notifies the device that the reward exchange is complete, and the device displays a notification to the user.

[2299] Step 5:

[2300] The server periodically updates the rankings based on the accumulated points of users, and identifies the top ranking users.

[2301] Step 6:

[2302] The server generates a side job offer for the top ranked person and sends a notification to the terminal.

[2303] Step 7:

[2304] The emotion engine will then respond to the notifications received by the top ranking users with a message that reflects the user's current emotions. For example, if the user is feeling nervous, it will send an encouraging message to ease that tension.

[2305] Step 8:

[2306] The terminal displays a notification of a side job offer to the user, and the user can obtain a side job opportunity by checking detailed information.

[2307] Example 2

[2308] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the robot 414 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[2309] In today's busy lifestyles, efficiently managing household tasks and maintaining user motivation are major challenges. Traditional household management systems lacked the sense of accomplishment and rewards users received when completing tasks, making it difficult for them to continue using the system. Furthermore, reminders and advice were standardized, making it difficult to personalize them to reflect individual users' emotions and circumstances. Furthermore, managing reward programs was cumbersome, resulting in low user convenience.

[2310] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.

[2311] In this invention, the server includes a means for allowing users to list household chores, add points when completed, and update rankings based on accumulated points; a means for providing reminders and advice tailored to daily life and generating specific advice using a generative AI model; and a means for adding points to users each time a household chore is completed and using those points to earn rewards. This allows users to perform household chores efficiently and enjoyably, increasing their motivation in the process. Furthermore, by using an emotion engine, flexible reminders and advice can be provided based on the user's emotions, improving the user experience. Furthermore, the management of the reward program is automated, increasing user convenience.

[2312] "Housework tasks" refer to work such as cleaning, laundry, and cooking that is done around the home.

[2313] "Listing" means organizing and displaying specific items as a list.

[2314] "Completion" refers to completing a scheduled household task.

[2315] "Score" refers to the evaluation value given to the user when completing a household task.

[2316] "Accumulated points" refers to the total points accumulated each time a user completes a household task.

[2317] "Ranking" refers to a system that determines the ranking of users based on accumulated points.

[2318] "Reminders" are notifications or alerts that remind users to perform specific household tasks.

[2319] "Advice" refers to specific guidance and suggestions that help users perform housework efficiently.

[2320] A "generative AI model" is a computational method or algorithm that uses artificial intelligence to generate specific information or advice.

[2321] An "emotion engine" is a system that analyzes a user's emotions and provides feedback accordingly.

[2322] "Rewards" refer to incentives such as gift certificates or discount coupons given to users who complete household tasks.

[2323] A "reward program" is a system in which points are awarded for completing household tasks and those points can be used to earn rewards.

[2324] "Side Job Offers" are opportunities to earn additional income based on a user's accumulated points and ranking.

[2325] MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[2326] This invention is a system for performing household chores efficiently and enjoyably, aiming to increase user motivation. The system utilizes a generative AI model and an emotion engine to support users' daily lives through task management, reminders and advice, and a reward program.

[2327] Managing household tasks

[2328] The user launches the dedicated app and enters their ID and password on the login screen. The device sends this authentication information to the server, which then authenticates them by comparing it with the user information in the database. If authentication is successful, the server retrieves the user's housework task list from the database and sends it to the device. The user checks the task list on the device and selects the tasks to complete. Once the task is completed, the user presses the "Task Complete" button, and the device sends task completion information to the server. The server adds points based on this information, recalculates the cumulative points and ranking, and sends them to the device. The device displays this to the user, and an emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions to provide appropriate feedback.

[2329] Providing reminders and advice

[2330] The user enters a household chore schedule into the app. For example, they might set it to "do laundry every Saturday." The device sends this data to the server, which saves the reminder schedule in a database. The server periodically checks the database and generates a reminder when the specified time arrives and sends it to the device. The device displays the reminder notification to the user, and an emotion engine provides reminders and advice that take the user's emotions into account. When the user enters a question about household chores into the app, the device sends the question to the server, which uses a generative AI model to generate appropriate advice. The server sends the advice to the device, which displays it to the user.

[2331] Housework Reward Program

[2332] The user checks their accumulated points, opens the reward menu and selects the gift certificate or discount coupon they want. The terminal sends the selection information to the server, which checks the user's accumulated points and determines whether they have enough points. The server performs the point deduction process, starts the gift certificate or discount coupon procedure, and notifies the terminal of the results. The terminal displays a notification to the user that the reward exchange has been completed. The server periodically updates the rankings based on the users' accumulated points, and generates and notifies side job offers to those at the top.

[2333] Specific examples

[2334] For example, suppose User A sets cooking, laundry, and cleaning tasks for each weekday, and earns points for completing these tasks. When User A completes the cooking task, he or she presses the "Task Complete" button, and the device sends the completion information to the server, which then adds points. The emotion engine then analyzes User A's emotions and provides positive feedback. On Saturday morning, the server generates a reminder saying, "It's time to clean today," and the device notifies the user. During this process, the emotion engine can also provide advice to reduce User A's stress.

[2335] Prompt Sentence Examples

[2336] "Please provide specific advice to help users perform household chores in an enjoyable and efficient manner."

[2337] The system helps users perform household chores in an enjoyable and efficient manner, motivating them in the process and improving their quality of life by providing appropriate feedback using an emotion engine.
