[0028] (Example 1) The safety confirmation system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that ensures the safety and health of children by installing an AI camera, GPS, a non-contact thermometer, and boarding and alighting sensors inside a school bus. As a result, the safety confirmation system can prevent children from being left behind on the school bus, from suffering from heatstroke, or from not wearing seatbelts in the event of an accident, and can check the health status of children and respond quickly if any abnormalities are detected.
[0029] A safety confirmation system according to an embodiment includes a boarding / alighting sensor, a non-contact thermometer, an AI camera, a GPS, and a notification unit. The boarding / alighting sensor checks the number of passengers. For example, the boarding / alighting sensor is installed at the entrance of a bus and automatically counts the number of children boarding. The non-contact thermometer checks body temperature. For example, the non-contact thermometer is installed at the entrance of the bus and measures the temperature of a child by pointing it at their forehead. If an abnormality is detected, an alert is issued. The AI camera and GPS identify the kindergartener / student who boarded the bus. For example, the AI camera recognizes the child's face, and the GPS records their location. The AI camera checks the child's condition and whether or not they are wearing a seat belt. For example, the AI camera monitors the child's movements and checks whether the seat belt is properly fastened. If an abnormality is detected, the notification unit notifies a designated person via SMS. For example, if a child has a high body temperature or a seat belt is not fastened, the notification unit issues an alert and notifies the person via SMS. As a result, the safety confirmation system of the embodiment can prevent children from being left behind on school buses, heatstroke, and not wearing seat belts in the event of an accident, check the health of children, and respond quickly if any abnormalities are found.
[0030] The boarding / alighting sensor can analyze the fluctuation pattern of the number of passengers and detect abnormal patterns. For example, the boarding / alighting sensor collects data from the boarding / alighting sensor and analyzes the past fluctuation pattern of the number of passengers. For example, it analyzes the fluctuation of the number of passengers during a specific time period or day of the week and detects abnormal patterns. This allows abnormal fluctuations in the number of passengers to be detected and responded to quickly.
[0031] The boarding and alighting sensor can transmit data on the number of passengers to the cloud in real time, enabling remote monitoring. For example, the boarding and alighting sensor can transmit data to the cloud, building a system that can monitor the number of passengers in real time from a remote location. For example, the data can be transmitted via the Internet, allowing an administrator to access it from a remote location. This allows the number of passengers to be monitored from a remote location.
[0032] A non-contact thermometer can analyze patterns of body temperature fluctuations and detect abnormal body temperature fluctuations. For example, a non-contact thermometer collects data from the non-contact thermometer and analyzes past patterns of body temperature fluctuations. For example, it analyzes body temperature fluctuations during specific times of the day or seasons to detect abnormal patterns. This allows abnormal body temperature fluctuations to be detected and addressed promptly.
[0033] Non-contact thermometers can transmit body temperature data to the cloud, making it possible to monitor body temperature from remote locations. For example, non-contact thermometers can transmit data from the non-contact thermometer to the cloud, creating a system that can monitor body temperature in real time from remote locations. For example, data can be transmitted via the Internet, allowing administrators to access the data from remote locations. This makes it possible to monitor body temperature from remote locations.
[0034] AI cameras can analyze children's movements and postures and detect abnormal movements. For example, AI cameras can be used to capture images of children's movements and postures while in the car, and algorithms can be developed to detect abnormal movements. For example, an alert can be issued if a child unbuckles their seat belt or makes an abnormal movement. This allows for the detection of abnormal movements and a quick response.
[0035] When a warning occurs and a notification unit notifies the user by SMS, the notification unit can analyze the cause of the warning and automatically propose measures to prevent recurrence. The notification unit, for example, builds a system that analyzes the cause of the warning and automatically proposes measures to prevent recurrence. For example, it identifies the cause based on past data and proposes measures. This makes it possible to analyze the cause of the warning and propose measures to prevent recurrence.
[0036] The notification unit can send warning data to the cloud, enabling monitoring from a remote location. The notification unit, for example, sends warning data to the cloud, building a system that allows real-time monitoring from a remote location. For example, the data can be sent via the Internet, allowing an administrator to access it from a remote location. This allows warnings to be monitored from a remote location.
[0037] The system can be applied to other public transportation systems to ensure passenger safety. For example, the system can be installed in train cars as a warning system to monitor passenger safety. For example, if an abnormal condition is detected, the system notifies the driver or manager. This can ensure passenger safety in other public transportation systems as well.
[0038] The notification unit can use the warning data to automatically notify a medical institution when an abnormality is detected. The notification unit, for example, analyzes the warning data and builds a system that automatically notifies a medical institution when an abnormality is detected. For example, an alert is sent to a medical institution when an abnormal state is detected. This allows automatic notification to a medical institution when an abnormality is detected.
[0039] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the above-described example, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.
[0040] The safety confirmation system can further include a voice recognition unit. The voice recognition unit can analyze the child's voice and detect abnormal vocalizations or cries for help. For example, if a child utters words such as "help me" or "it hurts," the voice recognition unit will detect this and immediately issue an alert. This allows for the rapid detection and response of abnormalities expressed by children.
[0041] The safety confirmation system can also be equipped with a vibration sensor. The vibration sensor detects abnormal shaking or impact of the bus and can detect signs of an accident early. For example, it detects abnormal vibrations during sudden braking or sharp turns and issues a warning to the driver. This reduces the risk of accidents and ensures the safety of children.
[0042] The safety confirmation system can also be equipped with an air quality sensor. The air quality sensor monitors the carbon dioxide concentration and levels of harmful substances inside the bus and issues an alert if an abnormality is detected. For example, if the carbon dioxide concentration becomes high, an alert is issued to prompt ventilation. This helps maintain the air quality inside the bus and protect the health of children.
[0043] The safety confirmation system can also be equipped with an ultraviolet sensor. The ultraviolet sensor monitors the level of ultraviolet light entering the bus and issues an alert if excessive ultraviolet light is detected. For example, if strong ultraviolet light is entering through the windows, an alert will be issued to prompt the driver to close the curtains. This will help protect children's skin from ultraviolet light.
[0044] The safety confirmation system can also include a humidity sensor. The humidity sensor monitors the humidity level inside the bus and issues an alert if an abnormality is detected. For example, if the humidity is too high, an alert is issued to prompt dehumidification. This helps maintain a comfortable environment inside the bus and protects the health of children.
[0045] The processing flow of the first embodiment will be briefly explained below.
[0046] Step 1: The boarding and alighting sensor checks the number of passengers. For example, the boarding and alighting sensor is installed at the entrance of the bus and automatically counts the number of children boarding. Step 2: A non-contact thermometer checks the body temperature. For example, a non-contact thermometer could be installed at the entrance of the bus, point it at the child's forehead to measure their temperature, and issue an alert if there is an abnormality. Step 3: The AI camera and GPS identify the children / students who boarded the bus. For example, the AI camera recognizes the children's faces, and the GPS records their location. Step 4: The AI camera checks the child's condition and whether they are wearing a seat belt. For example, the AI camera can monitor the child's movements and check whether the seat belt is properly fastened. Step 5: If the notification unit detects an abnormality, it will contact a designated person in charge via SMS. For example, if the person has a high body temperature or the seat belt is not fastened, the notification unit will issue an alert and notify the person in charge via SMS.

For example, an alert can be issued if a child unbuckles their seat belt or makes an abnormal movement. This allows for the detection of abnormal movements and a quick response.
[0054] AI cameras can estimate a child's emotions and identify children who are experiencing stress or anxiety. For example, AI cameras can analyze a child's facial expressions while riding using emotion estimation algorithms linked to the AI camera. For example, facial recognition technology can be used to analyze a child's facial expressions and detect signs of stress or anxiety. This allows for the identification of children who are experiencing stress or anxiety and for quick response.
[0055] When a warning occurs and a notification unit notifies the user by SMS, the notification unit can analyze the cause of the warning and automatically propose measures to prevent recurrence.

[0122] The data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. The processing by the data processing system 410 is executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the robot 414, but may also be executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the robot 414.

[0123] The emotion identification model 59 as an emotion engine may determine the user's emotion according to a specific mapping. Specifically, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the user's emotion according to an emotion map (see FIG. 9), which is a specific mapping. Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the robot's emotion, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the robot's emotion.
[0124] FIG. 9 illustrates an emotion map 400 on which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. Emotions closer to the center of the concentric circles are more primitive. Emotions representing states and behaviors arising from a state of mind are arranged on the outer edges of the concentric circles. The concept of emotion encompasses both emotions and mental states. Emotions generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are arranged on the left side of the concentric circles. Emotions generally induced by situational judgment are arranged on the right side of the concentric circles. Emotions generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the concentric circles. Furthermore, the emotion of "pleasure" is arranged on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "discomfort" is arranged on the lower side. In this way, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure by which emotions are generated, and emotions that tend to occur simultaneously are mapped close to each other.
[0125] These emotions are distributed in the 3 o'clock direction on emotion map 400, and typically fluctuate between relief and anxiety. In the right half of emotion map 400, situational awareness dominates over internal sensations, resulting in a sense of calm.
[0126] The inside of emotion map 400 represents what is going on in the mind, and the outside of emotion map 400 represents behavior, so the further you go outside emotion map 400, the more visible the emotions become (the more they are expressed in behavior).
[0127] Human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, a state of discomfort is expressed, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is expressed. Emotions can also be created for robots, cars, and motorcycles, based on various balances, such as posture and remaining battery life. When these balances deviate from the ideal, a state of discomfort is expressed, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is expressed. An emotion map can be generated, for example, based on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on speech emotion recognition and brain physiological signal analysis systems for emotions, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the area called "reaction," where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the area called "situation," where situational awareness is dominant.
[0128] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. One is a negative emotion on the situation side, around the middle of "repentance" or "reflection." In other words, this occurs when the robot experiences negative emotions such as "I never want to feel this way again" or "I don't want to be scolded again." The other is a positive emotion on the response side, around "desire." In other words, this occurs when the robot experiences positive feelings such as "I want more" or "I want to know more."
[0129] The emotion identification model 59 inputs user input into a pre-trained neural network, obtains emotion values indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the user's emotion. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple pieces of training data that are combinations of user input and emotion values indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400. Furthermore, this neural network is trained so that emotions that are located close to each other have similar values, as in the emotion map 900 shown in FIG. 10. FIG. 10 shows an example in which multiple emotions, "relieved," "calm," and "reassuring," have similar emotion values.
[0130] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which a specific process is performed by one computer 22, but the technology disclosed herein is not limited to this, and distributed processing of the specific process may be performed by multiple computers including computer 22.
[0131] In the above embodiment, an example in which the specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32 has been described, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this. For example, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a portable, computer-readable, non-transitory storage medium such as a USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory. The specific processing program 56 stored in the non-transitory storage medium is installed in the computer 22 of the data processing device 12.

[0133] It is not necessary to store all of the specific processing program 56 in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, or to store all of the specific processing program 56 in the storage 32; only a portion of the specific processing program 56 may be stored.
[0134] The hardware resource for executing a specific process can be any of the following types of processors: A processor, for example, is a CPU, which is a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource for executing a specific process by executing software, i.e., a program. A processor also includes a dedicated electrical circuit, such as an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), a PLD (Programmable Logic Device), or an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), which is a processor with a circuit configuration designed specifically for executing a specific process. Each processor has built-in or connected memory, and each processor uses the memory to execute the specific process.
[0135] The hardware resource that executes the specific process may be configured with one of these various processors, or may be configured with a combination of two or more processors of the same or different types (for example, a combination of multiple FPGAs, or a combination of a CPU and an FPGA). Also, the hardware resource that executes the specific process may be a single processor.
[0136] As an example of a system configured with a single processor, first, one processor is configured by combining one or more CPUs and software, and this processor functions as a hardware resource that executes a specific process.
