In this case, the data processing device 12 obtains a processing result (prediction result, etc.) using the data generation model 58 by communicating with the server device having the data generation model 58. Furthermore, the data processing device 12 may be a server device, or may be a terminal device owned by a user (e.g., a mobile phone, a robot, a home appliance, etc.). Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.
[0028] (Example 1) The drug recommendation system according to an embodiment of the present invention uses generative AI to analyze a user's symptoms and centrally manages simple diagnosis, symptom analysis, and the recommendation and purchase of optimal drugs. As a result, the drug recommendation system can efficiently and safely recommend and purchase drugs for people who want to receive medical care but cannot, or who are too busy to go to the hospital.
[0029] The drug suggestion system according to the embodiment includes a simple diagnosis unit, a symptom analysis unit, a drug suggestion unit, a purchasing support unit, and a drug combination advice unit. The simple diagnosis unit uses a generation AI to analyze a user's symptoms and perform a simple diagnosis. For example, when a user inputs symptoms such as "I have a headache" or "I have a sore throat," the generation AI analyzes the information and identifies possible illnesses or conditions. The symptom analysis unit performs a detailed analysis of the symptoms diagnosed by the simple diagnosis unit. For example, based on information such as "My headache is continuing" or "My sore throat is getting worse," the generation AI determines the severity and urgency of the symptoms. The drug suggestion unit suggests the most appropriate over-the-counter drug based on the symptoms analyzed by the symptom analysis unit. For example, it suggests specific drug names and usage instructions, such as "This drug is effective for headaches" or "This drug is suitable for sore throats." The purchasing support unit provides links and information for purchasing over-the-counter drugs suggested by the drug suggestion unit online. For example, users can easily purchase drugs by clicking on a link provided by the generation AI. The drug combination advice unit provides advice on interactions between the user's current medications and the over-the-counter drugs suggested by the drug suggestion unit. For example, it can provide specific advice such as, "There is no problem if you take this medicine with this medicine" or "Taking this medicine with this medicine may cause side effects." This allows the drug recommendation system to efficiently and safely recommend and purchase medicines for people who want to receive medical care but cannot, or who are too busy to go to the hospital.
[0030] The simple diagnosis unit analyzes the user's past health data and lifestyle information to perform a more accurate simple diagnosis. For example, the generation AI analyzes the health data and lifestyle information previously entered by the user and compares it with current symptoms to perform a diagnosis. For example, it identifies the cause of specific symptoms by taking into account past dietary habits and exercise habits. The simple diagnosis unit also analyzes the user's past health checkup results and medical history to identify diseases or conditions that may be related to the current symptoms. For example, if a user who has previously been diagnosed with high blood pressure complains of a headache, the generation AI suggests that high blood pressure may be the cause. The simple diagnosis unit also analyzes the user's lifestyle information (e.g., smoking habits and alcohol intake) to evaluate how these factors affect the current symptoms. For example, it suggests that a sore throat in a user who smokes may be caused by smoking. This enables more accurate diagnoses by taking into account the user's past health data and lifestyle information.
[0031] The simple diagnosis unit analyzes the user's voice input and can estimate their health condition from their tone of voice and speaking style. For example, when a user describes their symptoms verbally, the generation AI analyzes their tone of voice and speaking style to estimate their level of stress and fatigue. For example, a hoarse voice may suggest a possible sore throat or cold. The simple diagnosis unit also analyzes the voice input, allowing the generation AI to detect the user's breathing and coughing sounds and identify respiratory problems. For example, coughing sounds may suggest the possibility of bronchitis or pneumonia. The simple diagnosis unit also analyzes the user's voice input and estimates their state of mental stress or anxiety from the trembling or instability of their voice. For example, a trembling voice may suggest the possibility of severe stress or anxiety. This allows for more detailed health condition estimation by analyzing the user's voice input.
[0032] The simple diagnosis unit can work in conjunction with the user's smartwatch or fitness tracker to monitor their health status in real time. For example, the generation AI analyzes data acquired from the user's smartwatch or fitness tracker to monitor their health status in real time. For example, it evaluates stress levels and fatigue levels based on heart rate and sleep data. The simple diagnosis unit also works in conjunction with the smartwatch or fitness tracker to analyze the user's exercise and activity levels to assess their health status. For example, it may suggest that a lack of exercise is the cause. The generation AI also notifies the user of changes in their health status in real time based on data acquired from the user's smartwatch or fitness tracker. For example, if it detects a sudden change in heart rate, it will alert the user. This allows for real-time health monitoring by working in conjunction with a smartwatch or fitness tracker.
[0033] The simple diagnostic unit can analyze the user's diet and exercise habits and assess the risk of lifestyle-related diseases. For example, the generation AI analyzes the diet and exercise habits entered by the user to assess the risk of lifestyle-related diseases. For example, a persistent high-fat diet and lack of exercise may suggest a risk of obesity or diabetes. The generation AI also analyzes the user's diet and exercise habits and provides advice on maintaining a healthy lifestyle. For example, it may recommend a balanced diet and regular exercise. The simple diagnostic unit also analyzes the user's diet and exercise habits and calculates a score to assess the risk of lifestyle-related diseases. For example, it provides a health risk score based on the nutritional balance of the diet and the amount of exercise. This allows the risk of lifestyle-related diseases to be assessed by analyzing the user's diet and exercise habits.
[0034] The symptom analysis unit can analyze the user's symptoms over time and identify the symptom progression pattern. For example, the symptom analysis unit analyzes the symptom data entered by the user over time, and the generation AI identifies the symptom progression pattern. For example, it analyzes changes in the frequency and intensity of headaches and evaluates the progression. The symptom analysis unit also analyzes the user's symptom data over time and identifies patterns of symptom worsening or improvement. For example, if a sore throat is gradually getting worse, this indicates the progression pattern. The symptom analysis unit also analyzes the user's symptom data over time, and the generation AI identifies the symptom progression pattern and suggests an appropriate treatment. For example, if symptoms have continued for a certain period of time, it recommends consulting a specialist. In this way, the symptom progression pattern can be identified and an appropriate treatment can be suggested.
[0035] The symptom analysis unit can analyze the user's genetic information and evaluate the impact of genetic factors on symptoms. For example, the symptom analysis unit uses the generation AI to analyze the genetic information provided by the user and evaluate how genetic factors affect current symptoms. For example, it can suggest the risk of a specific disease based on family history. The symptom analysis unit also uses the generation AI to analyze the user's genetic information and evaluate how genetic factors affect the severity and progression of symptoms. For example, if there is a genetically high risk of high blood pressure, it can suggest high blood pressure as a cause of headaches. The symptom analysis unit also analyzes the user's genetic information and uses the generation AI to evaluate the impact of genetic factors on symptoms and propose personalized treatments. For example, if the effectiveness of a drug varies genetically, the generation AI can propose the most appropriate drug based on that information. This makes it possible to propose personalized treatments by analyzing genetic information.
[0036] The symptom analysis unit can compare the symptom analysis results with the user's family history and environmental factors to identify risk factors. For example, the symptom analysis unit uses the generation AI to analyze the user's family history and environmental factors and compare them with the symptom analysis results to identify risk factors. For example, if there are many family members with diabetes, the system may suggest a risk of diabetes. The symptom analysis unit also analyzes the user's family history and environmental factors, and the generation AI identifies the causes of symptoms and risk factors. For example, if the user grew up in a family environment with a smoking habit, the system may suggest a risk of respiratory problems. The symptom analysis unit also uses the generation AI to analyze the user's family history and environmental factors and compare them with the symptom analysis results to identify risk factors, thereby providing personalized advice. For example, the system may evaluate the impact of specific environmental factors on symptoms. This allows risk factors to be identified by taking family history and environmental factors into account.
[0037] The symptom analysis unit can analyze the user's sleep data and evaluate the impact of lack of sleep on symptoms. For example, the symptom analysis unit uses a generation AI to analyze the user's sleep data and evaluate how lack of sleep is affecting current symptoms. For example, it may suggest that lack of sleep is the cause of a headache. The symptom analysis unit also uses a generation AI to analyze the user's sleep data and evaluate how the quality and quantity of sleep affect the severity of symptoms. For example, if the quality of sleep is poor, it may suggest that a sore throat is getting worse. The symptom analysis unit also analyzes the user's sleep data and uses a generation AI to evaluate the impact of lack of sleep on symptoms and provide appropriate advice. For example, it may suggest ways to get good quality sleep. In this way, the impact of lack of sleep on symptoms can be evaluated by analyzing sleep data.
[0038] The drug suggestion unit can analyze the user's allergy information and suggest drugs to avoid allergic reactions. For example, the drug suggestion unit uses a generation AI to analyze allergy information provided by the user and suggest drugs to avoid allergic reactions. For example, if a user is allergic to a specific ingredient, the unit will suggest drugs that do not contain that ingredient. The drug suggestion unit also analyzes the user's allergy information and suggests alternative drugs to avoid allergic reactions. For example, instead of a drug that may cause an allergy, the unit will suggest a different drug with the same effect. The drug suggestion unit also analyzes the user's allergy information and the generation AI suggests drugs to avoid allergic reactions, allowing the user to use drugs safely. For example, the unit will list drugs that do not contain ingredients that cause allergies. This allows the unit to suggest drugs to avoid allergic reactions by analyzing allergy information.
[0039] The drug suggestion unit can suggest the optimal dosage by taking into account individual information such as the user's weight and age. For example, the generation AI analyzes individual information such as the user's weight and age to suggest the optimal dosage. For example, it suggests a smaller dose of medicine for a light-weight user. The drug suggestion unit also considers the user's age and weight to suggest the appropriate dosage. For example, it suggests a smaller dosage than usual for elderly people. The drug suggestion unit also analyzes individual information about the user and the generation AI suggests the optimal dosage, ensuring safe use of medicine. For example, it suggests a dosage according to the user's age for children. This makes it possible to suggest the optimal dosage by taking into account individual information such as weight and age.
[0040] The drug suggestion unit can analyze the user's diet and supplement intake status and suggest drugs that take drug interactions into consideration. For example, the drug suggestion unit uses a generation AI to analyze the diet and supplement intake status entered by the user and suggest drugs that take drug interactions into consideration. For example, it makes a suggestion to avoid drugs that interact with specific supplements. In addition, the drug suggestion unit uses a generation AI to analyze the user's diet and supplement intake status and suggest drugs that take drug interactions into consideration. For example, it makes a suggestion to avoid drugs that interact with specific foods. In addition, the drug suggestion unit analyzes the user's diet and supplement intake status and suggests drugs that take drug interactions into consideration, allowing for safe drug use. For example, it suggests drugs that do not interact with specific supplements. This makes it possible to suggest drugs that avoid interactions by taking into consideration the diet and supplement intake status.
[0041] The drug suggestion unit can analyze the user's exercise habits and suggest drugs that aid in post-exercise recovery. For example, the drug suggestion unit uses a generation AI to analyze the user's exercise habits and suggest drugs that aid in post-exercise recovery. For example, it suggests drugs and supplements that relieve muscle pain. The drug suggestion unit also uses a generation AI to analyze the user's exercise habits and suggest drugs that aid in post-exercise recovery. For example, it suggests drugs and supplements that promote fatigue recovery. The drug suggestion unit also supports effective recovery by analyzing the user's exercise habits and suggesting drugs that aid in post-exercise recovery. For example, it suggests drugs that suppress post-exercise inflammation. In this way, it is possible to suggest drugs to aid in post-exercise recovery by taking exercise habits into consideration.
[0042] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the above-described example, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.
[0043] The drug recommendation system can also include an environmental analysis unit that collects data on the user's living environment and evaluates the impact of environmental factors on health. For example, it can analyze air quality data in the user's living environment to evaluate the risk of allergies and respiratory problems. The environmental analysis unit can also analyze data such as the user's work environment and commute time to identify causes of stress and fatigue. Furthermore, the environmental analysis unit can provide advice to reduce health risks based on the user's living environment data. For example, it can suggest using an air purifier or taking appropriate rest. This enables health management that takes the user's living environment into consideration.
[0044] The drug recommendation system may further include a genetic analysis unit that analyzes the user's genetic information and evaluates the impact of genetic factors on health. For example, the genetic information of the user may be analyzed to evaluate the risk of a particular disease. The genetic analysis unit may also propose an individualized health management plan based on the user's genetic information. For example, it may provide appropriate dietary and exercise advice to a user who is genetically at high risk of high blood pressure. Furthermore, the genetic analysis unit may also suggest the most appropriate drug based on the user's genetic information. For example, if a specific drug is genetically effective, it may suggest that drug. This enables individualized health management that takes genetic information into account.
[0045] The drug recommendation system may further include a nutritional analysis unit that analyzes the user's dietary data and evaluates nutritional balance. For example, it may analyze the dietary details entered by the user and evaluate the nutritional balance. The nutritional analysis unit may also propose a healthy meal plan based on the user's nutritional balance. For example, if there is a vitamin or mineral deficiency, it may suggest a method for supplementing. Furthermore, the nutritional analysis unit may evaluate the risk of certain diseases based on the user's dietary data. For example, if a high-fat diet is continued, it may suggest a risk of heart disease. This makes it possible to manage health taking the user's dietary data into consideration.
[0046] The drug recommendation system can also include an exercise analysis unit that analyzes the user's exercise data and evaluates their exercise habits. For example, it analyzes the exercise details entered by the user and evaluates their exercise habits. The exercise analysis unit can also propose a healthy exercise plan based on the user's exercise habits. For example, if a lack of exercise continues, it can suggest an appropriate exercise method. Furthermore, the exercise analysis unit can evaluate the risk of certain diseases based on the user's exercise data. For example, if a lack of exercise increases the risk of obesity or diabetes, it can suggest that risk. This makes it possible to manage health taking the user's exercise data into consideration.
[0047] The drug recommendation system may further include a sleep analysis unit that analyzes the user's sleep data and evaluates the quality of their sleep. For example, it may analyze the sleep data entered by the user and evaluate the quality of their sleep. The sleep analysis unit may also propose a healthy sleep plan based on the user's sleep data. For example, if the user has been experiencing sleep deprivation, it may suggest an appropriate sleeping method. Furthermore, the sleep analysis unit may evaluate the risk of certain diseases based on the user's sleep data. For example, if stress or fatigue has accumulated due to lack of sleep, it may suggest the risk. This enables health management that takes the user's sleep data into consideration.
[0048] The processing flow of the first embodiment will be briefly explained below.
[0049] Step 1: The simple diagnosis unit uses the generation AI to analyze the user's symptoms and perform a simple diagnosis. For example, if the user inputs symptoms such as "I have a headache" or "I have a sore throat," the generation AI analyzes that information and identifies possible illnesses and conditions. Step 2: The symptom analysis unit performs a detailed analysis of the symptoms diagnosed by the simple diagnosis unit. For example, based on information such as "the headache continues" or "the sore throat is getting worse," the generation AI determines the severity and urgency of the symptoms. Step 3: The drug suggestion unit suggests the most suitable over-the-counter drug based on the symptoms analyzed by the symptom analysis unit.

[0050] (Example 2) The drug recommendation system according to an embodiment of the present invention uses generative AI to analyze a user's symptoms and centrally manages simple diagnosis, symptom analysis, and the recommendation and purchase of optimal drugs. As a result, the drug recommendation system can efficiently and safely recommend and purchase drugs for people who want to receive medical care but cannot, or who are too busy to go to the hospital.
[0051] The drug suggestion system according to the embodiment includes a simple diagnosis unit, a symptom analysis unit, a drug suggestion unit, a purchasing support unit, and a drug combination advice unit. The simple diagnosis unit uses a generation AI to analyze a user's symptoms and perform a simple diagnosis. For example, when a user inputs symptoms such as "I have a headache" or "I have a sore throat," the generation AI analyzes the information and identifies possible illnesses or conditions.

This allows the drug recommendation system to efficiently and safely recommend and purchase medicines for people who want to receive medical care but cannot, or who are too busy to go to the hospital.
[0052] The simple diagnosis unit analyzes the user's past health data and lifestyle information to perform a more accurate simple diagnosis. For example, the generation AI analyzes the health data and lifestyle information previously entered by the user and compares it with current symptoms to perform a diagnosis. For example, it identifies the cause of specific symptoms by taking into account past dietary habits and exercise habits. The simple diagnosis unit also analyzes the user's past health checkup results and medical history to identify diseases or conditions that may be related to the current symptoms.

[0114] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI. An example of the data generation model 58 is a generative AI such as ChatGPT. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 receives a prompt containing an instruction, as well as inference data such as voice data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing an image. 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. The identification processing unit 290 performs the above-mentioned identification processing using the data generation model 58. The data generation model 58 may be a fine-tuned model so as to output an inference result from a prompt that does not include an instruction. In this case, the data generation model 58 can output an inference result from a prompt that does not include an instruction. The data processing device 12 and the like include multiple types of data generation models 58, and the data generation model 58 includes AIs other than the generative AI.

The AI may also be an AI agent. When the processes of each of the above-mentioned parts are performed by AI, the processes may be performed in part or entirely by AI, but are not limited to these examples. The processes performed by AI, including the generative AI, may be replaced with rule-based processes.

[0128] Note that a device other than the data processing device 12 may have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 communicates with the server device having the data generation model 58 to obtain a processing result (such as a prediction result) using the data generation model 58. Furthermore, the data processing device 12 may be a server device, or may be a terminal device (for example, a mobile phone, a robot, a home appliance, etc.) owned by a user.
[0129] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the robot 414. In the robot 414, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and the control target 443 to output the result of the specific processing.

The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 receives a prompt containing an instruction, as well as inference data such as voice data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing an image.

When the processes of each of the above-mentioned parts are performed by AI, the processes may be performed in part or entirely by AI, but are not limited to these examples. The processes performed by AI, including the generative AI, may be replaced with rule-based processes.
[0131] 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. Furthermore, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information required for processing from the robot 414 or an external device, etc., and the robot 414 acquires or collects information required for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device, etc.
[0132] 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.
[0133] 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.
[0134] 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.
[0135] 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).
[0136] 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.
[0137] 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."
[0138] 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.
[0139] 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.
[0140] 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. The processor 28 executes the specific processing in accordance with the specific processing program 56.
[0141] Alternatively, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, and the specific processing program 56 may be downloaded and installed on the computer 22 in response to a request from the data processing device 12.
[0142] 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.
[0143] 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.
[0144] 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.
[0145] 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. Second, there is a system that uses a processor that realizes the functions of an entire system including multiple hardware resources that execute a specific process on a single IC chip, as typified by SoC (System-on-a-chip). In this way, a specific process is realized using one or more of the above-mentioned various processors as hardware resources.
[0146] Furthermore, the hardware structure of these various processors can be, more specifically, an electric circuit that combines circuit elements such as semiconductor devices. The specific processing described above is merely an example. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary steps may be deleted, new steps may be added, or the processing order may be rearranged, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
[0147] In the above example, the first to fourth embodiments have been described separately, but some or all of these embodiments may be combined. The smart device 14, smart glasses 214, headset terminal 314, and robot 414 are merely examples, and they may be combined, or other devices may be used. In the above example, the first and second embodiments have been described separately, but they may be combined.

For example, the above description of the configuration, functions, actions, and effects is an explanation of an example of the configuration, functions, actions, and effects of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary parts may be deleted, new elements may be added, or replacements may be made to the above-described description and illustrations within the scope of the gist of the technology of the present disclosure. Furthermore, to avoid confusion and facilitate understanding of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure, the above-described description and illustrations omit explanations of common technical knowledge that do not require particular explanation to enable the implementation of the technology of the present disclosure.
