[0376] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 1. 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."

[0377] Conventional sales systems for products made from marine biological materials are useful in that a portion of the profits are used to restore the natural environment. However, they lack a means to visualize the specific environmental conservation activities that users are contributing to through their purchases. As a result, they often do not sufficiently raise users' awareness of environmental conservation activities or motivate them to participate. They also lack an effective system for tracking the health of the natural environment in real time. Therefore, a more comprehensive, user-participatory system for restoring the natural environment is needed.

[0378] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0379] In this invention, the server includes a means for providing a smartphone application that integrates and manages product information purchased at stores and displays the progress of environmental conservation activities, a means for providing a smartphone application including an incentive system based on ecotourism experience reservations and point awards, a sensor for collecting environmental data, and a means for managing points using the incentive system. This allows users to not only check in real time how the products they purchased are contributing to environmental conservation, but also to actually participate in restoration activities through ecotourism experiences. In addition, displaying the collected environmental data allows for efficient tracking and analysis of the health of the natural environment.

[0395] The following describes an embodiment of the present invention: The present invention is realized by a system consisting of a user, a terminal, and a server, and various applications associated therewith.

[0396] System Configuration

[0397] The present invention comprises the following main elements:

[0398] 1. Sales system for products made from marine biological materials

[0399] 2. Integrated management of product information

[0400] 3. Environmental data collection and analysis

[0401] 4. Ecotourism Experience Reservation and Points System

[0402] 5. Natural Environment Education Programs

[0403] 6. Tracking and visualizing the health of natural environments

[0404] 1. Sales system for products made from marine biological materials

[0405] The server provides a website for selling products made from marine biological materials (such as accessories and chopstick rests). Users access the website through their devices, select products, and purchase them. The server stores purchase data and processes product shipping.

[0406] 2. Integrated management of product information

[0407] The server manages all product information purchased at physical stores and websites. It saves a purchase history for each user based on the purchase information obtained from the device. Through a smartphone application, users can check their own purchase history and the progress of related environmental conservation activities.

[0408] 3. Environmental data collection and analysis

[0409] The sensors collect real-time data on the marine life's habitat (such as temperature, salinity, and light intensity). The terminal transmits the data provided by the sensors to a server, which analyzes the data and determines whether the conditions are suitable for the growth of marine life.

[0410] 4. Ecotourism Experience Reservation and Points System

[0411] Users can book ecotourism experiences using a smartphone application. The server manages the reservation information and awards points to users when the tour is completed. The points can be used for future purchases or ecotourism experiences.

[0412] 5. Natural Environment Education Programs

[0413] The server provides educational programs to raise awareness of the importance of the natural environment. Users select and study educational content via a smartphone application. The device sends the user's learning progress to the server, which then recommends the next learning content to the user.

[0414] 6. Tracking and visualizing the health of natural environments

[0415] The server analyzes environmental data collected from the sensors in real time to assess the health of the natural environment, which users can view on a dashboard via a smartphone application.

[0416] Specific examples

[0417] For example, if User A purchases accessories made from marine biological materials at a physical store, the server consolidates the purchase information and displays the progress of the environmental conservation project to User A through a smartphone application. User A then books an ecotourism experience and earns points after participating in the tour. The knowledge gained through the educational program and the tour experience will help User A to gain a deeper understanding of the importance of the natural environment and to participate in ongoing environmental conservation activities.

[0418] Example prompt for a generative AI model:

[0419] Generative AI: I'm designing a smartphone app to manage information about marine biological products I purchase in a physical store. Please generate a flowchart for the application that meets the following requirements:

[0420] Product information management

[0421] Providing environmental education programs

[0422] Reservation for Ecotourism Experience

[0423] Displaying environmental data on the dashboard

[0424] Bonus Points System

[0425] Such prompts enable generative AI models to achieve effective application design and provide users with a better user experience.

[0426] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[0427] Step 1:

[0428] A user purchases a marine biological product from a physical store or website. The user uses a device to select the product and complete the purchase. The device sends the purchase information (product name, quantity, price, purchase date and time, etc.) to a server, which stores this information in a database.

[0429] Step 2:

[0430] The server processes product shipping based on the saved purchase information. Specifically, the server connects to an inventory management system to check the stock of the purchased product. It then sends shipping instructions to the logistics center. The logistics center ships the product and returns a shipping completion notice to the server. The server records this in a database and sends a shipping completion notice to the user.

[0431] Step 3:

[0432] The server manages the progress of environmental conservation projects related to product purchases. Environmental data (temperature, salinity, light intensity, etc.) obtained from sensors is sent to the server. The server stores this data in a database and analyzes it. The analysis results are provided to the user's smartphone application, allowing the user to check the progress of the environmental conservation project in real time.

[0433] Step 4:

[0434] Users use a smartphone application to book an ecotourism experience. They select the tour they want and complete the booking process. The device sends the booking information (tour name, date and time, number of participants, etc.) to the server, which then stores it in a database.

[0435] Step 5:

[0436] After completing the ecotourism experience, the server will give the user points. When the tour guide reports the completion of the tour to the server, the server will update the user's points. These points can be used for the next purchase or ecotourism experience.

[0437] Step 6:

[0438] Users access the natural environment educational program through a smartphone application. The user selects the content they want to learn, and the device sends the selection information to the server. The server then provides the selected educational content to the device. As the user progresses with their learning, the device sends their progress to the server, which then recommends the next content.

[0439] Step 7:

[0440] The server evaluates the health of the natural environment based on the collected environmental data. It analyzes the data provided by the sensors in real time and displays the results on a dashboard. Users can check the environmental data on the dashboard via a smartphone application and take necessary measures.

[0441] As described above, the system of the present invention allows users, terminals, and servers to cooperate with each other, thereby realizing conservation of the natural environment and an improved user experience.

[0442] 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.

[0443] This paper describes an embodiment of the present invention. The present invention combines a series of systems that sell products made from marine biological materials and use the profits to restore the natural environment with an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions. The system is realized through the interaction between the user, terminals, and a server.

[0444] Sales of marine biological products

[0445] First, products made from marine biological materials (such as chopstick rests, accessories, building materials, etc.) will be sold on the website.

[0446] A user accesses a website and views a product listing page.

[0447] The terminal transmits the user's request to the server and obtains product information.

[0448] The server retrieves product information from the database and sends it to the terminal.

[0449] The terminal displays a list of products to the user.

[0450] The user selects a product, adds it to their cart, and proceeds with the purchase.

[0451] The terminal transmits the selection and payment information to the server.

[0452] The server verifies the payment and processes the order to ship the item.

[0453] Marine organisms growing in specific environments

[0454] A portion of the profits will be used to promote and grow marine life, particularly coral, in specific environments.

[0455] The sensors monitor the habitat conditions of marine organisms (e.g., temperature, salinity, light intensity, etc.) in real time.

[0456] The terminal transmits the data provided by the sensor to the server.

[0457] The server analyzes the data and assesses whether conditions are favorable for growth.

[0458] Users (local staff and volunteers) carry out the propagation work according to instructions from the server.

[0459] Educational programs on the importance of the natural environment

[0460] Provide programs to educate users about the importance of the natural environment.

[0461] The user accesses the educational program page and selects the content they wish to study.

[0462] The terminal transmits content selection information to the server.

[0463] The server provides the selected educational content to the terminal.

[0464] Users browse the content and progress through their studies.

[0465] The terminal transmits the user's learning progress to the server.

[0466] The server determines the next content based on the learning data and sends it to the terminal.

[0467] Ecological Experience

[0468] Through ecotourism, users can participate in coral restoration activities.

[0469] Users access the Ecotour booking page and select the tour they wish to participate in.

[0470] The terminal transmits the reservation information to the server.

[0471] The server will confirm the reservation details and send a reservation confirmation email to the user.

[0472] On the day of the tour, users will use the app to follow guides and instructions to experience coral restoration activities.

[0473] Tracking the health of natural environments

[0474] Use the collected data to track and assess the health of the natural environment.

[0475] Sensors collect environmental data in real time.

[0476] The terminal transmits the sensor data to the server.

[0477] The server analyzes the data and assesses the health of the natural environment.

[0478] The server provides the evaluation results to the user on a dashboard.

[0479] Users can check the health of the natural environment through the dashboard.

[0480] Incorporating an emotion engine

[0481] The system of the present invention incorporates an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions and optimizes the experience accordingly.

[0482] Emotion recognition and optimization of educational programs

[0483] The user accesses the educational program page and begins learning.

[0484] The device transmits changes in the user's facial expressions and voice to the emotion engine via a camera and microphone.

[0485] The emotion engine (server) analyzes the data and assesses the user's emotional state (e.g., happy, anxious, excited, etc.).

[0486] The server uses the emotional data to optimize the next educational content to be displayed and the activities to be offered.

[0487] The terminal provides the optimized content to the user.

[0488] Emotional data and the effectiveness of environmental restoration activities

[0489] Users (ecotourism participants) participate in restoration activities through their ecotourism experiences.

[0490] The terminal collects the user's emotion data during the playback activity and transmits it to the emotion engine.

[0491] The emotion engine (server) analyzes the emotion data and evaluates the effectiveness of activities and user satisfaction.

[0492] The server will reflect the evaluation results in improving the activities and in designing future programs.

[0493] Tailoring Emotionally Based Ecotourism Experiences

[0494] Users' emotions are recognized in real time during the ecotourism experience.

[0495] The device transmits the user's facial expressions and voice to the emotion engine.

[0496] The emotion engine (server) analyzes the data and evaluates the user's excitement and satisfaction.

[0497] Based on the evaluation results, the server issues instructions to the tour guide and adjusts the experience content in real time.

[0498] Users can enjoy ecotourism more fully through an optimized experience.

[0499] Specific examples

[0500] For example, let us explain the case where Mr. Tanaka purchases chopstick rests made from marine biological materials and participates in ecotourism.

[0501] Mr. Tanaka (user) accesses the website, selects a chopstick rest, and completes the purchase process.

[0502] Tanaka's device sends the selection information to the server, and once payment is confirmed, the product is shipped.

[0503] A portion of the proceeds will be used for coral propagation projects.

[0504] When booking Ecotourism,

[0505] Tanaka accesses the Eco Tour reservation page and completes the reservation process.

[0506] The server will send you a booking confirmation email and provide instructions on the day of the tour.

[0507] On the day of the EcoSea experience,

[0508] Tanaka launches the app and follows the guide's instructions to participate in the coral restoration activities.

[0509] The device sends Tanaka's emotional data to the emotion engine.

[0510] The emotion engine (server) evaluates Tanaka's satisfaction level and optimizes his activities in real time.

[0511] This will enable Tanaka to find his ecotourism experience more enjoyable and fulfilling.

[0512] The above is a specific implementation of the "Coral Reef Restoration Platform" incorporating an emotion engine. This system not only balances environmental conservation with revenue generation, but also optimizes the user experience based on emotions, thereby realizing sustainable restoration of the natural environment.

[0816] 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."

[0817] In modern society, it is important to balance environmental conservation with profits. However, revenue from product sales alone may not be enough to fund sufficient environmental restoration activities. In addition, methods for individually optimizing user experiences are underdeveloped. In particular, there is no technology that can optimize experiences and product recommendations in real time based on the user's emotional state.

[0818] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes: means for selling products made from marine biological materials and securing profits; means for using a portion of the profits to promote the proliferation of marine organisms in a specific environment and transplant them to damaged natural environments; means for providing educational programs and experiential activities regarding the importance of the natural environment; means for tracking and analyzing the health of the natural environment based on collected data; means incorporating an emotion engine that recognizes user emotions and optimizes experiences based on the emotions; and means for analyzing the user's emotions at the time of ordering and providing optimal product suggestions and experiences. This makes it possible to provide individually optimized product suggestions and experiences based on the user's emotional state.

[0819] "Marine biological materials" are organic materials obtained from marine organisms living in nature, including, for example, seashells, corals, and marine plants.

[0820] "Revenue" is the economic benefit obtained from the sale of a product or the provision of a service.

[0821] The "emotion engine" is a system that recognizes a user's emotional state from their facial expressions, voice, behavior, etc., and optimizes services and experiences based on that information.

[0822] A "specific environment" is a place where conditions are optimal for marine life to thrive, such as an area of ​​ocean with a particular temperature, salinity, or light level.

[0823] The "natural environment" refers to the Earth's land, oceans, ecosystems, and other areas that have not been damaged by human activities or that are partially preserved.

[0824] "Proliferation" is the phenomenon in which an organism grows and its population increases. Specifically, this includes the reproduction and regeneration of coral.

[0825] "Educational Programs" provide learning content and activities to help people learn about and deepen their understanding of the importance of the natural environment.

[0826] "Experiential activities" refer to activities that involve direct user involvement, such as on-site, hands-on activities or remote, virtual tours.

[0827] "Emotion recognition" is a technology that analyzes data such as a user's facial expressions, voice, and behavior to determine their emotional state.

[0828] "Optimization" means adjusting conditions or content to achieve maximum effect for a specific purpose or goal.

[0829] A "suggestion" is the act of recommending a product, service, activity, etc. to a user.

[0830] The present invention aims to optimize the user experience by combining a system that sells products made from marine biological materials and uses the profits from those products for environmental conservation activities with an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions.

[0831] 1. System Configuration

[0832] The system consists of users, devices (smartphones, tablets, etc.), servers, and sensors.

[0833] 2. Program Generation and Processing

[0834] The server uses the following hardware and software:

[0835] Hardware: Server equipment with high-performance processors, memory, and storage

[0836] Software: Generative AI models such as TensorFlow and Keras, web application frameworks such as Flask

[0837] Data processing and calculation

[0838] The server receives facial expression and voice data sent from the user's device and analyzes it using the emotion engine. The specific data processing and calculation are as follows:

[0839] Facial expression data processing: Preprocessing image data captured from the user's camera and recognizing emotions using a generative AI model.

[0840] Audio data processing: Analyzes audio data captured from a microphone and evaluates the voice tone and pitch to infer emotional state.

[0841] Optimization based on the analysis of emotional data: Based on the results of the generative AI model, optimal product suggestions and experiential activities are provided to users in real time.

[0842] 3. Specific Examples

[0843] For example, let's say a user wants to use the Eco Delivery app to purchase accessories made from marine materials. The steps are as follows:

[0844] 1. The user launches the app, selects an accessory, and begins the ordering process.

[0845] 2. The device captures the user's facial expressions and voice data and sends it to the server.

[0846] 3. The server analyzes the received data using an emotion engine powered by TensorFlow and evaluates the user's emotional state.

[0847] 4. Based on the evaluation results, the server presents product suggestions and ecotourism experience reservations that will give the user a high level of satisfaction.

[0848] 5. The device displays the suggestions from the server to the user.

[0849] 4. Examples of prompts

[0850] When using a generative AI model, use the following prompt:

[0851] "If a user is trying to order accessories and his facial expression is neutral and his tone of voice is steady, suggest a relaxing activity or product."

[0852] In this way, it is possible to recognize the user's emotional state in real time and provide optimized services and experiences.

[0853] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.

[0854] Step 1:

[0855] The user launches the Eco Delivery app and selects a product (e.g., an accessory) made from marine biological materials.

[0856] Input: Product information selected by the user.

[0857] Output: The selection information is sent to the database.

[0858] Step 2:

[0859] The device captures the user's facial expressions and voice data.

[0860] Input: Real-time video and audio data from cameras and microphones.

[0861] Output: The captured facial and voice data is sent to the generative AI model.

[0862] Step 3:

[0863] The server analyzes the facial expression data and voice data using an emotion engine to evaluate the user's emotional state.

[0864] Input: facial expression data and speech data.

[0865] Data processing: Using TensorFlow, we analyze facial expression data to recognize emotions, and analyze audio data to estimate emotional states.

[0866] Output: The user's emotional state (e.g., "neutral" or "steady") is obtained as the evaluation result.

[0867] Step 4:

[0868] Based on the evaluation results, the server generates optimal product suggestions and experience activities for the user.

[0869] Input: Evaluation results of the emotion engine.

[0870] Data processing: Based on the evaluation results, prompts are input into the generative AI model to generate optimal product suggestions and experiential activities.

[0871] Output: Optimized product recommendations and experiential activity content.

[0872] Step 5:

[0873] The terminal displays the suggestions from the server to the user.

[0874] Input: Optimized proposal data sent from the server.

[0875] Output: The suggestion is displayed on the user's screen.

[0876] Step 6:

[0877] The user reviews the suggestions provided and, if necessary, books an ecotourism experience or purchases additional products.

[0878] Input: Information selected by the user.

[0879] Output: The selection information is sent to the server, and the next action is to confirm the reservation or start the process of purchasing additional products.

[0880] Through the above steps, the system can provide optimized product suggestions and experiential activities based on the user's emotional state, improving the user experience.

[0881] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart device 14. In the smart device 14, the control unit 46A causes the output device 40 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 38B acquires audio indicating a user input regarding the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits audio data indicating the user input acquired by the microphone 38B to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[0882] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet Search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">) and other generation AIs. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. A prompt including an instruction is input to the data generation model 58, and inference data such as voice data indicating voice, text data indicating text, and image data indicating an image is also input. The data generation model 58 performs inference on the input inference data in accordance with the instruction indicated by the prompt, and outputs the inference result in a data format such as voice data and text data.

[1276] Example prompt for a generative AI model:

[1277] Generative AI: I'm designing a smartphone app to manage information about marine biological products I purchase in a physical store. Please generate a flowchart for the application that meets the following requirements:

[1278] Product information management

[1279] Providing environmental education programs

[1280] Reservation for Ecotourism Experience

[1281] Displaying environmental data on the dashboard

[1282] Bonus Points System

[1283] Such prompts enable generative AI models to achieve effective application design and provide users with a better user experience.

[1284] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[1285] Step 1:

[1286] A user purchases a marine biological product from a physical store or website. The user uses a device to select the product and complete the purchase. The device sends the purchase information (product name, quantity, price, purchase date and time, etc.) to a server, which stores this information in a database.

[1287] Step 2:

[1288] The server processes product shipping based on the saved purchase information. Specifically, the server connects to an inventory management system to check the stock of the purchased product. It then sends shipping instructions to the logistics center. The logistics center ships the product and returns a shipping completion notice to the server. The server records this in a database and sends a shipping completion notice to the user.

[1289] Step 3:

[1290] The server manages the progress of environmental conservation projects related to product purchases. Environmental data (temperature, salinity, light intensity, etc.) obtained from sensors is sent to the server. The server stores this data in a database and analyzes it. The analysis results are provided to the user's smartphone application, allowing the user to check the progress of the environmental conservation project in real time.

[1291] Step 4:

[1292] Users use a smartphone application to book an ecotourism experience. They select the tour they want and complete the booking process. The device sends the booking information (tour name, date and time, number of participants, etc.) to the server, which then stores it in a database.

[1293] Step 5:

[1294] After completing the ecotourism experience, the server will give the user points. When the tour guide reports the completion of the tour to the server, the server will update the user's points. These points can be used for the next purchase or ecotourism experience.

[1295] Step 6:

[1296] Users access the natural environment educational program through a smartphone application. The user selects the content they want to learn, and the device sends the selection information to the server. The server then provides the selected educational content to the device. As the user progresses with their learning, the device sends their progress to the server, which then recommends the next content.

[1297] Step 7:

[1298] The server evaluates the health of the natural environment based on the collected environmental data. It analyzes the data provided by the sensors in real time and displays the results on a dashboard. Users can check the environmental data on the dashboard via a smartphone application and take necessary measures.

[1299] As described above, the system of the present invention allows users, terminals, and servers to cooperate with each other, thereby realizing conservation of the natural environment and an improved user experience.

[1300] 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.

[1301] This paper describes an embodiment of the present invention. The present invention combines a series of systems that sell products made from marine biological materials and use the profits to restore the natural environment with an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions. The system is realized through the interaction between the user, terminals, and a server.

[1302] Sales of marine biological products

[1303] First, products made from marine biological materials (such as chopstick rests, accessories, building materials, etc.) will be sold on the website.

[1304] A user accesses a website and views a product listing page.

[1305] The terminal transmits the user's request to the server and obtains product information.

[1306] The server retrieves product information from the database and sends it to the terminal.

[1307] The terminal displays a list of products to the user.

[1308] The user selects a product, adds it to their cart, and proceeds with the purchase.

[1309] The terminal transmits the selection and payment information to the server.

[1310] The server verifies the payment and processes the order to ship the item.

[1311] Marine organisms growing in specific environments

[1312] A portion of the profits will be used to promote and grow marine life, particularly coral, in specific environments.

[1313] The sensors monitor the habitat conditions of marine organisms (e.g., temperature, salinity, light intensity, etc.) in real time.

[1314] The terminal transmits the data provided by the sensor to the server.

[1315] The server analyzes the data and assesses whether conditions are favorable for growth.

[1316] Users (local staff and volunteers) carry out the propagation work according to instructions from the server.

[1317] Educational programs on the importance of the natural environment

[1318] Provide programs to educate users about the importance of the natural environment.

[1319] The user accesses the educational program page and selects the content they wish to study.

[1320] The terminal transmits content selection information to the server.

[1321] The server provides the selected educational content to the terminal.

[1322] Users browse the content and progress through their studies.

[1323] The terminal transmits the user's learning progress to the server.

[1324] The server determines the next content based on the learning data and sends it to the terminal.

[1325] Ecological Experience

[1326] Through ecotourism, users can participate in coral restoration activities.

[1327] Users access the Ecotour booking page and select the tour they wish to participate in.

[1328] The terminal transmits the reservation information to the server.

[1329] The server will confirm the reservation details and send a reservation confirmation email to the user.

[1330] On the day of the tour, users will use the app to follow guides and instructions to experience coral restoration activities.

[1331] Tracking the health of natural environments

[1332] Use the collected data to track and assess the health of the natural environment.

[1333] Sensors collect environmental data in real time.

[1334] The terminal transmits the sensor data to the server.

[1335] The server analyzes the data and assesses the health of the natural environment.

[1336] The server provides the evaluation results to the user on a dashboard.

[1337] Users can check the health of the natural environment through the dashboard.

[1338] Incorporating an emotion engine

[1339] The system of the present invention incorporates an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions and optimizes the experience accordingly.

[1340] Emotion recognition and optimization of educational programs

[1341] The user accesses the educational program page and begins learning.

[1342] The device transmits changes in the user's facial expressions and voice to the emotion engine via a camera and microphone.

[1343] The emotion engine (server) analyzes the data and assesses the user's emotional state (e.g., happy, anxious, excited, etc.).

[1344] The server uses the emotional data to optimize the next educational content to be displayed and the activities to be offered.

[1345] The terminal provides the optimized content to the user.

[1346] Emotional data and the effectiveness of environmental restoration activities

[1347] Users (ecotourism participants) participate in restoration activities through their ecotourism experiences.

[1348] The terminal collects the user's emotion data during the playback activity and transmits it to the emotion engine.

[1349] The emotion engine (server) analyzes the emotion data and evaluates the effectiveness of activities and user satisfaction.

[1350] The server will reflect the evaluation results in improving the activities and in designing future programs.

[1351] Tailoring Emotionally Based Ecotourism Experiences

[1352] Users' emotions are recognized in real time during the ecotourism experience.

[1353] The device transmits the user's facial expressions and voice to the emotion engine.

[1354] The emotion engine (server) analyzes the data and evaluates the user's excitement and satisfaction.

[1355] Based on the evaluation results, the server issues instructions to the tour guide and adjusts the experience content in real time.

[1356] Users can enjoy ecotourism more fully through an optimized experience.

[1357] Specific examples

[1358] For example, let us explain the case where Mr. Tanaka purchases chopstick rests made from marine biological materials and participates in ecotourism.

[1359] Mr. Tanaka (user) accesses the website, selects a chopstick rest, and completes the purchase process.

[1360] Tanaka's device sends the selection information to the server, and once payment is confirmed, the product is shipped.

[1361] A portion of the proceeds will be used for coral propagation projects.

[1362] When booking Ecotourism,

[1363] Tanaka accesses the Eco Tour reservation page and completes the reservation process.

[1364] The server will send you a booking confirmation email and provide instructions on the day of the tour.

[1365] On the day of the EcoSea experience,

[1366] Tanaka launches the app and follows the guide's instructions to participate in the coral restoration activities.

[1367] The device sends Tanaka's emotional data to the emotion engine.

[1368] The emotion engine (server) evaluates Tanaka's satisfaction level and optimizes his activities in real time.

[1369] This will enable Tanaka to find his ecotourism experience more enjoyable and fulfilling.

[1370] The above is a specific implementation of the "Coral Reef Restoration Platform" incorporating an emotion engine. This system not only balances environmental conservation with revenue generation, but also optimizes the user experience based on emotions, thereby realizing sustainable restoration of the natural environment.

[1673] (Application example 2)

[1674] 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."

[1675] In modern society, it is important to balance environmental conservation with profits. However, revenue from product sales alone may not be enough to fund sufficient environmental restoration activities. In addition, methods for individually optimizing user experiences are underdeveloped. In particular, there is no technology that can optimize experiences and product recommendations in real time based on the user's emotional state.

[1676] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes: means for selling products made from marine biological materials and securing profits; means for using a portion of the profits to promote the proliferation of marine organisms in a specific environment and transplant them to damaged natural environments; means for providing educational programs and experiential activities regarding the importance of the natural environment; means for tracking and analyzing the health of the natural environment based on collected data; means incorporating an emotion engine that recognizes user emotions and optimizes experiences based on the emotions; and means for analyzing the user's emotions at the time of ordering and providing optimal product suggestions and experiences. This makes it possible to provide individually optimized product suggestions and experiences based on the user's emotional state.

[1677] "Marine biological materials" are organic materials obtained from marine organisms living in nature, including, for example, seashells, corals, and marine plants.

[1678] "Revenue" is the economic benefit obtained from the sale of a product or the provision of a service.

[1679] The "emotion engine" is a system that recognizes a user's emotional state from their facial expressions, voice, behavior, etc., and optimizes services and experiences based on that information.

[1680] A "specific environment" is a place where conditions are optimal for marine life to thrive, such as an area of ​​ocean with a particular temperature, salinity, or light level.

[1681] The "natural environment" refers to the Earth's land, oceans, ecosystems, and other areas that have not been damaged by human activities or that are partially preserved.

[1682] "Proliferation" is the phenomenon in which an organism grows and its population increases. Specifically, this includes the reproduction and regeneration of coral.

[1683] "Educational Programs" provide learning content and activities to help people learn about and deepen their understanding of the importance of the natural environment.

[1684] "Experiential activities" refer to activities that involve direct user involvement, such as on-site, hands-on activities or remote, virtual tours.

[1685] "Emotion recognition" is a technology that analyzes data such as a user's facial expressions, voice, and behavior to determine their emotional state.

[1686] "Optimization" means adjusting conditions or content to achieve maximum effect for a specific purpose or goal.

[1687] A "suggestion" is the act of recommending a product, service, activity, etc. to a user.

[1688] The present invention aims to optimize the user experience by combining a system that sells products made from marine biological materials and uses the profits from those products for environmental conservation activities with an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions.

[1689] 1. System Configuration

[1690] The system consists of users, devices (smartphones, tablets, etc.), servers, and sensors.

[1691] 2. Program Generation and Processing

[1692] The server uses the following hardware and software:

[1693] Hardware: Server equipment with high-performance processors, memory, and storage

[1694] Software: Generative AI models such as TensorFlow and Keras, web application frameworks such as Flask

[1695] Data processing and calculation

[1696] The server receives facial expression and voice data sent from the user's device and analyzes it using the emotion engine. The specific data processing and calculation are as follows:

[1697] Facial expression data processing: Preprocessing image data captured from the user's camera and recognizing emotions using a generative AI model.

[1698] Audio data processing: Analyzes audio data captured from a microphone and evaluates the voice tone and pitch to infer emotional state.

[1699] Optimization based on the analysis of emotional data: Based on the results of the generative AI model, optimal product suggestions and experiential activities are provided to users in real time.

[1700] 3. Specific Examples

[1701] For example, let's say a user wants to use the Eco Delivery app to purchase accessories made from marine materials. The steps are as follows:

[1702] 1. The user launches the app, selects an accessory, and begins the ordering process.

[1703] 2. The device captures the user's facial expressions and voice data and sends it to the server.

[1704] 3. The server analyzes the received data using an emotion engine powered by TensorFlow and evaluates the user's emotional state.

[1705] 4. Based on the evaluation results, the server presents product suggestions and ecotourism experience reservations that will give the user a high level of satisfaction.

[1706] 5. The device displays the suggestions from the server to the user.

[1707] 4. Examples of prompts

[1708] When using a generative AI model, use the following prompt:

[1709] "If a user is trying to order accessories and his facial expression is neutral and his tone of voice is steady, suggest a relaxing activity or product."

[1710] In this way, it is possible to recognize the user's emotional state in real time and provide optimized services and experiences.

[1711] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.

[1712] Step 1:

[1713] The user launches the Eco Delivery app and selects a product (e.g., an accessory) made from marine biological materials.

[1714] Input: Product information selected by the user.

[1715] Output: The selection information is sent to the database.

[1716] Step 2:

[1717] The device captures the user's facial expressions and voice data.

[1718] Input: Real-time video and audio data from cameras and microphones.

[1719] Output: The captured facial and voice data is sent to the generative AI model.

[1720] Step 3:

[1721] The server analyzes the facial expression data and voice data using an emotion engine to evaluate the user's emotional state.

[1722] Input: facial expression data and speech data.

[1723] Data processing: Using TensorFlow, we analyze facial expression data to recognize emotions, and analyze audio data to estimate emotional states.

[1724] Output: The user's emotional state (e.g., "neutral" or "steady") is obtained as the evaluation result.

[1725] Step 4:

[1726] Based on the evaluation results, the server generates optimal product suggestions and experience activities for the user.

[1727] Input: Evaluation results of the emotion engine.

[1728] Data processing: Based on the evaluation results, prompts are input into the generative AI model to generate optimal product suggestions and experiential activities.

[1729] Output: Optimized product recommendations and experiential activity content.

[1730] Step 5:

[1731] The terminal displays the suggestions from the server to the user.

[1732] Input: Optimized proposal data sent from the server.

[1733] Output: The suggestion is displayed on the user's screen.

[1734] Step 6:

[1735] The user reviews the suggestions provided and, if necessary, books an ecotourism experience or purchases additional products.

[1736] Input: Information selected by the user.

[1737] Output: The selection information is sent to the server, and the next action is to confirm the reservation or start the process of purchasing additional products.

[1738] Through the above steps, the system can provide optimized product suggestions and experiential activities based on the user's emotional state, improving the user experience.

[1739] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart glasses 214. In the smart glasses 214, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating a user input regarding the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits audio data indicating the user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[1740] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet Search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">) and other generation AIs. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. A prompt including an instruction is input to the data generation model 58, and inference data such as voice data indicating voice, text data indicating text, and image data indicating an image is also input. The data generation model 58 performs inference on the input inference data in accordance with the instruction indicated by the prompt, and outputs the inference result in a data format such as voice data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.

[2093] Conventional sales systems for products made from marine biological materials are useful in that a portion of the profits are used to restore the natural environment. However, they lack a means to visualize the specific environmental conservation activities that users are contributing to through their purchases. As a result, they often do not sufficiently raise users' awareness of environmental conservation activities or motivate them to participate. They also lack an effective system for tracking the health of the natural environment in real time. Therefore, a more comprehensive, user-participatory system for restoring the natural environment is needed.

[2094] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 1 is realized by the following means.

[2095] In this invention, the server includes a means for providing a smartphone application that integrates and manages product information purchased at stores and displays the progress of environmental conservation activities, a means for providing a smartphone application including an incentive system based on ecotourism experience reservations and point awards, a sensor for collecting environmental data, and a means for managing points using the incentive system. This allows users to not only check in real time how the products they purchased are contributing to environmental conservation, but also to actually participate in restoration activities through ecotourism experiences. In addition, displaying the collected environmental data allows for efficient tracking and analysis of the health of the natural environment.

[2110] A "dashboard" refers to an interface that visually displays collected data so that users can understand it at a glance.

[2111] The following describes an embodiment of the present invention: The present invention is realized by a system consisting of a user, a terminal, and a server, and various applications associated therewith.

[2112] System Configuration

[2113] The present invention comprises the following main elements:

[2114] 1. Sales system for products made from marine biological materials

[2115] 2. Integrated management of product information

[2116] 3. Environmental data collection and analysis

[2117] 4. Ecotourism Experience Reservation and Points System

[2118] 5. Natural Environment Education Programs

[2119] 6. Tracking and visualizing the health of natural environments

[2120] 1. Sales system for products made from marine biological materials

[2121] The server provides a website for selling products made from marine biological materials (such as accessories and chopstick rests). Users access the website through their devices, select products, and purchase them. The server stores purchase data and processes product shipping.

[2122] 2. Integrated management of product information

[2123] The server manages all product information purchased at physical stores and websites. It saves a purchase history for each user based on the purchase information obtained from the device. Through a smartphone application, users can check their own purchase history and the progress of related environmental conservation activities.

[2124] 3. Environmental data collection and analysis

[2125] The sensors collect real-time data on the marine life's habitat (such as temperature, salinity, and light intensity). The terminal transmits the data provided by the sensors to a server, which analyzes the data and determines whether the conditions are suitable for the growth of marine life.

[2126] 4. Ecotourism Experience Reservation and Points System

[2127] Users can book ecotourism experiences using a smartphone application. The server manages the reservation information and awards points to users when the tour is completed. The points can be used for future purchases or ecotourism experiences.

[2128] 5. Natural Environment Education Programs

[2129] The server provides educational programs to raise awareness of the importance of the natural environment. Users select and study educational content via a smartphone application. The device sends the user's learning progress to the server, which then recommends the next learning content to the user.

[2130] 6. Tracking and visualizing the health of natural environments

[2131] The server analyzes environmental data collected from the sensors in real time to assess the health of the natural environment, which users can view on a dashboard via a smartphone application.

[2132] Specific examples

[2133] For example, if User A purchases accessories made from marine biological materials at a physical store, the server consolidates the purchase information and displays the progress of the environmental conservation project to User A through a smartphone application. User A then books an ecotourism experience and earns points after participating in the tour. The knowledge gained through the educational program and the tour experience will help User A to gain a deeper understanding of the importance of the natural environment and to participate in ongoing environmental conservation activities.

[2134] Example prompt for a generative AI model:

[2135] Generative AI: I'm designing a smartphone app to manage information about marine biological products I purchase in a physical store. Please generate a flowchart for the application that meets the following requirements:

[2136] Product information management

[2137] Providing environmental education programs

[2138] Reservation for Ecotourism Experience

[2139] Displaying environmental data on the dashboard

[2140] Bonus Points System

[2141] Such prompts enable generative AI models to achieve effective application design and provide users with a better user experience.

[2142] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[2143] Step 1:

[2144] A user purchases a marine biological product from a physical store or website. The user uses a device to select the product and complete the purchase. The device sends the purchase information (product name, quantity, price, purchase date and time, etc.) to a server, which stores this information in a database.

[2145] Step 2:

[2146] The server processes product shipping based on the saved purchase information. Specifically, the server connects to an inventory management system to check the stock of the purchased product. It then sends shipping instructions to the logistics center. The logistics center ships the product and returns a shipping completion notice to the server. The server records this in a database and sends a shipping completion notice to the user.

[2147] Step 3:

[2148] The server manages the progress of environmental conservation projects related to product purchases. Environmental data (temperature, salinity, light intensity, etc.) obtained from sensors is sent to the server. The server stores this data in a database and analyzes it. The analysis results are provided to the user's smartphone application, allowing the user to check the progress of the environmental conservation project in real time.

[2149] Step 4:

[2150] Users use a smartphone application to book an ecotourism experience. They select the tour they want and complete the booking process. The device sends the booking information (tour name, date and time, number of participants, etc.) to the server, which then stores it in a database.

[2151] Step 5:

[2152] After completing the ecotourism experience, the server will give the user points. When the tour guide reports the completion of the tour to the server, the server will update the user's points. These points can be used for the next purchase or ecotourism experience.

[2153] Step 6:

[2154] Users access the natural environment educational program through a smartphone application. The user selects the content they want to learn, and the device sends the selection information to the server. The server then provides the selected educational content to the device. As the user progresses with their learning, the device sends their progress to the server, which then recommends the next content.

[2155] Step 7:

[2156] The server evaluates the health of the natural environment based on the collected environmental data. It analyzes the data provided by the sensors in real time and displays the results on a dashboard. Users can check the environmental data on the dashboard via a smartphone application and take necessary measures.

[2157] As described above, the system of the present invention allows users, terminals, and servers to cooperate with each other, thereby realizing conservation of the natural environment and an improved user experience.

[2158] 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.

[2159] This paper describes an embodiment of the present invention. The present invention combines a series of systems that sell products made from marine biological materials and use the profits to restore the natural environment with an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions. The system is realized through the interaction between the user, terminals, and a server.

[2160] Sales of marine biological products

[2161] First, products made from marine biological materials (such as chopstick rests, accessories, building materials, etc.) will be sold on the website.

[2162] A user accesses a website and views a product listing page.

[2163] The terminal transmits the user's request to the server and obtains product information.

[2164] The server retrieves product information from the database and sends it to the terminal.

[2165] The terminal displays a list of products to the user.

[2166] The user selects a product, adds it to their cart, and proceeds with the purchase.

[2167] The terminal transmits the selection and payment information to the server.

[2168] The server verifies the payment and processes the order to ship the item.

[2169] Marine organisms growing in specific environments

[2170] A portion of the profits will be used to promote and grow marine life, particularly coral, in specific environments.

[2171] The sensors monitor the habitat conditions of marine organisms (e.g., temperature, salinity, light intensity, etc.) in real time.

[2172] The terminal transmits the data provided by the sensor to the server.

[2173] The server analyzes the data and assesses whether conditions are favorable for growth.

[2174] Users (local staff and volunteers) carry out the propagation work according to instructions from the server.

[2175] Educational programs on the importance of the natural environment

[2176] Provide programs to educate users about the importance of the natural environment.

[2177] The user accesses the educational program page and selects the content they wish to study.

[2178] The terminal transmits content selection information to the server.

[2179] The server provides the selected educational content to the terminal.

[2180] Users browse the content and progress through their studies.

[2181] The terminal transmits the user's learning progress to the server.

[2182] The server determines the next content based on the learning data and sends it to the terminal.

[2183] Ecological Experience

[2184] Through ecotourism, users can participate in coral restoration activities.

[2185] Users access the Ecotour booking page and select the tour they wish to participate in.

[2186] The terminal transmits the reservation information to the server.

[2187] The server will confirm the reservation details and send a reservation confirmation email to the user.

[2188] On the day of the tour, users will use the app to follow guides and instructions to experience coral restoration activities.

[2189] Tracking the health of natural environments

[2190] Use the collected data to track and assess the health of the natural environment.

[2191] Sensors collect environmental data in real time.

[2192] The terminal transmits the sensor data to the server.

[2193] The server analyzes the data and assesses the health of the natural environment.

[2194] The server provides the evaluation results to the user on a dashboard.

[2195] Users can check the health of the natural environment through the dashboard.

[2196] Incorporating an emotion engine

[2197] The system of the present invention incorporates an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions and optimizes the experience accordingly.

[2198] Emotion recognition and optimization of educational programs

[2199] The user accesses the educational program page and begins learning.

[2200] The device transmits changes in the user's facial expressions and voice to the emotion engine via a camera and microphone.

[2201] The emotion engine (server) analyzes the data and assesses the user's emotional state (e.g., happy, anxious, excited, etc.).

[2202] The server uses the emotional data to optimize the next educational content to be displayed and the activities to be offered.

[2203] The terminal provides the optimized content to the user.

[2204] Emotional data and the effectiveness of environmental restoration activities

[2205] Users (ecotourism participants) participate in restoration activities through their ecotourism experiences.

[2206] The terminal collects the user's emotion data during the playback activity and transmits it to the emotion engine.

[2207] The emotion engine (server) analyzes the emotion data and evaluates the effectiveness of activities and user satisfaction.

[2208] The server will reflect the evaluation results in improving the activities and in designing future programs.

[2209] Tailoring Emotionally Based Ecotourism Experiences

[2210] Users' emotions are recognized in real time during the ecotourism experience.

[2211] The device transmits the user's facial expressions and voice to the emotion engine.

[2212] The emotion engine (server) analyzes the data and evaluates the user's excitement and satisfaction.

[2213] Based on the evaluation results, the server issues instructions to the tour guide and adjusts the experience content in real time.

[2214] Users can enjoy ecotourism more fully through an optimized experience.

[2215] Specific examples

[2216] For example, let us explain the case where Mr. Tanaka purchases chopstick rests made from marine biological materials and participates in ecotourism.

[2217] Mr. Tanaka (user) accesses the website, selects a chopstick rest, and completes the purchase process.

[2218] Tanaka's device sends the selection information to the server, and once payment is confirmed, the product is shipped.

[2219] A portion of the proceeds will be used for coral propagation projects.

[2220] When booking Ecotourism,

[2221] Tanaka accesses the Eco Tour reservation page and completes the reservation process.

[2222] The server will send you a booking confirmation email and provide instructions on the day of the tour.

[2223] On the day of the EcoSea experience,

[2224] Tanaka launches the app and follows the guide's instructions to participate in the coral restoration activities.

[2225] The device sends Tanaka's emotional data to the emotion engine.

[2226] The emotion engine (server) evaluates Tanaka's satisfaction level and optimizes his activities in real time.

[2227] This will enable Tanaka to find his ecotourism experience more enjoyable and fulfilling.

[2228] The above is a specific implementation of the "Coral Reef Restoration Platform" incorporating an emotion engine. This system not only balances environmental conservation with revenue generation, but also optimizes the user experience based on emotions, thereby realizing sustainable restoration of the natural environment.

[2229] The processing flow will be explained below.

[2532] 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."

[2533] In modern society, it is important to balance environmental conservation with profits. However, revenue from product sales alone may not be enough to fund sufficient environmental restoration activities. In addition, methods for individually optimizing user experiences are underdeveloped. In particular, there is no technology that can optimize experiences and product recommendations in real time based on the user's emotional state.

[2534] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes: means for selling products made from marine biological materials and securing profits; means for using a portion of the profits to promote the proliferation of marine organisms in a specific environment and transplant them to damaged natural environments; means for providing educational programs and experiential activities regarding the importance of the natural environment; means for tracking and analyzing the health of the natural environment based on collected data; means incorporating an emotion engine that recognizes user emotions and optimizes experiences based on the emotions; and means for analyzing the user's emotions at the time of ordering and providing optimal product suggestions and experiences. This makes it possible to provide individually optimized product suggestions and experiences based on the user's emotional state.

[2535] "Marine biological materials" are organic materials obtained from marine organisms living in nature, including, for example, seashells, corals, and marine plants.

[2536] "Revenue" is the economic benefit obtained from the sale of a product or the provision of a service.

[2537] The "emotion engine" is a system that recognizes a user's emotional state from their facial expressions, voice, behavior, etc., and optimizes services and experiences based on that information.

[2538] A "specific environment" is a place where conditions are optimal for marine life to thrive, such as an area of ​​ocean with a particular temperature, salinity, or light level.

[2539] The "natural environment" refers to the Earth's land, oceans, ecosystems, and other areas that have not been damaged by human activities or that are partially preserved.

[2540] "Proliferation" is the phenomenon in which an organism grows and its population increases. Specifically, this includes the reproduction and regeneration of coral.

[2541] "Educational Programs" provide learning content and activities to help people learn about and deepen their understanding of the importance of the natural environment.

[2542] "Experiential activities" refer to activities that involve direct user involvement, such as on-site, hands-on activities or remote, virtual tours.

[2543] "Emotion recognition" is a technology that analyzes data such as a user's facial expressions, voice, and behavior to determine their emotional state.

[2544] "Optimization" means adjusting conditions or content to achieve maximum effect for a specific purpose or goal.

[2545] A "suggestion" is the act of recommending a product, service, activity, etc. to a user.

[2546] The present invention aims to optimize the user experience by combining a system that sells products made from marine biological materials and uses the profits from those products for environmental conservation activities with an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions.

[2547] 1. System Configuration

[2555] Facial expression data processing: Preprocessing image data captured from the user's camera and recognizing emotions using a generative AI model.

[2556] Audio data processing: Analyzes audio data captured from a microphone and evaluates the voice tone and pitch to infer emotional state.

[2557] Optimization based on the analysis of emotional data: Based on the results of the generative AI model, optimal product suggestions and experiential activities are provided to users in real time.

[2558] 3. Specific Examples

[2559] For example, let's say a user wants to use the Eco Delivery app to purchase accessories made from marine materials. The steps are as follows:

[2560] 1. The user launches the app, selects an accessory, and begins the ordering process.

[2561] 2. The device captures the user's facial expressions and voice data and sends it to the server.
