[0023] FIG. 2 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart device 14.
[0024] 2, in the data processing device 12, a specific process is performed by the processor 28. A specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32. The specific processing program 56 is an example of a "program" according to the technology of the present disclosure. The processor 28 reads the specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific process is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 in accordance with the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.
[0025] The storage 32 stores a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate a user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotion. The emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59 performs various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotion, including estimation and prediction of the user's emotion, but is not limited to these examples. Furthermore, the estimation and prediction of emotion also includes, for example, emotion analysis.
[0026] In the smart device 14, the specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific processing program 60.

The specific processing is realized by the processor 46 operating as the control unit 46A in accordance with the specific processing program 60 executed on the RAM 48. Note that the smart device 14 has a data generation model and an emotion identification model similar to the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59, and can also perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.
[0027] Note that a device other than the data processing device 12 may have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device (e.g., a generation server) may have the data generation model 58. 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) A matching system according to an embodiment of the present invention efficiently analyzes a user's profile information, proposes optimal match candidates, and provides message templates. In the matching system, a user inputs profile information, and a generation AI analyzes the information to propose optimal match candidates. Furthermore, message templates are provided to the user based on the match candidates proposed by the generation AI. For example, in the matching system, a user inputs detailed information such as their name, age, hobbies, and interests. This information is input to the generation AI. The generation AI then analyzes the input information and proposes optimal match candidates. For example, for a user whose hobby is watching movies, other users with the same hobby can be proposed. Furthermore, message templates are provided to the user based on the match candidates proposed by the generation AI. For example, a template such as "Hello, I love movies too. What movies have you seen recently?" can be provided as a first message. This allows users to efficiently match. This allows the matching system to analyze a user's profile information, propose optimal match candidates, and provide message templates. For example, users with common hobbies can be matched and smoothly start communicating, making it easier for romantic relationships to develop.
[0029] A matching system according to an embodiment includes a reception unit, an analysis unit, and a provision unit. The reception unit receives profile information from a user. The user's profile information may include, but is not limited to, information such as a name, age, hobbies, and interests. The reception unit stores the information entered by the user in a database. The reception unit may also transmit the information entered by the user to a generation AI. The analysis unit uses the generation AI to analyze the information received by the reception unit and propose optimal match candidates. The analysis unit may propose other users with common hobbies based on the user's hobbies and interests. The analysis unit may also perform analysis using past match data. For example, the analysis unit may extract successful match patterns based on the past match data and propose optimal match candidates based on the extracted patterns. The provision unit provides a message template to the user based on the match candidates proposed by the generation AI. For example, the provision unit may provide a template such as "Hello, I love movies too. What movies have you seen recently?" as a first message. The provision unit may also generate message templates based on the user's profile information. For example, the providing unit generates an appropriate message template based on the user's hobbies and interests, thereby enabling the matching system according to the embodiment to efficiently analyze the user's profile information, propose optimal match candidates, and provide message templates.
[0030] The reception unit can receive detailed information such as the user's name, age, hobbies, and interests. The detailed information includes, but is not limited to, the name, age, hobbies, and interests. For example, the reception unit stores the name entered by the user in a database. The reception unit can also store the age entered by the user in a database. The reception unit can also store the hobbies and interests entered by the user in a database. For example, if the user enters watching movies as a hobby, the reception unit stores that information in the database. This makes it possible to receive detailed profile information of the user.
[0031] The analysis unit can suggest matching candidates based on the user's profile information. For example, the analysis unit suggests other users who share the same hobbies based on the user's hobbies and interests. For example, the analysis unit suggests other users who share the same hobbies to a user whose hobby is watching movies. The analysis unit can also suggest appropriate matching candidates based on the user's age and gender. For example, the analysis unit suggests users who are similar in age. Furthermore, the analysis unit can perform analysis by referring to past matching data. For example, the analysis unit extracts successful matching patterns based on past matching data and suggests optimal matching candidates based on those patterns. This makes it possible to suggest optimal matching candidates based on the user's profile information.
[0032] The providing unit can provide a message template based on the proposed matching candidates. For example, the providing unit can provide a template such as "Hello, I love movies too. What movies have you seen recently?" as a first message. The providing unit can also generate a message template based on the user's profile information. For example, the providing unit generates an appropriate message template based on the user's hobbies and interests. Furthermore, the providing unit can provide a message template to the user based on the matching candidates proposed by the generation AI. For example, the providing unit provides an appropriate message template for the matching candidates proposed by the generation AI. This makes it possible to provide a message template based on the matching candidates proposed by the generation AI.
[0033] The analysis unit can perform analysis based on past matching data. For example, the analysis unit extracts successful matching patterns based on the past matching data and proposes optimal matching candidates based on the extracted patterns. The analysis unit can also eliminate unsuccessful matching patterns based on the past matching data, thereby improving the accuracy of the proposals. Furthermore, the analysis unit can analyze user profile information by referring to the past matching data. For example, the analysis unit proposes optimal matching candidates based on the user's hobbies and interests based on the past matching data. In this way, the accuracy of the proposals is improved by performing analysis by referring to the past matching data.
[0034] The providing unit can generate a message template based on the user's profile information. The providing unit generates an appropriate message template based on, for example, the user's hobbies and interests. For example, the providing unit provides a movie-related message template to a user whose hobby is watching movies. The providing unit can also generate an appropriate message template based on the user's age and gender. For example, the providing unit provides an appropriate message template to users who are similar in age. Furthermore, the providing unit can also provide a message template to a user based on matching candidates proposed by the generation AI. For example, the providing unit provides an appropriate message template for a matching candidate proposed by the generation AI. In this way, by generating a message template based on the user's profile information, more appropriate messages can be provided.
[0035] The reception unit can analyze the user's past profile information and suggest an input format. For example, the reception unit automatically suggests the optimal input format based on the profile information the user has input in the past. The reception unit can also preferentially suggest input methods (voice, text, etc.) that the user has used in the past. Furthermore, the reception unit can predict and suggest an input format to be used in a specific time period based on the user's past input history. For example, the reception unit automatically suggests the optimal input format based on the profile information the user has input in the past. In this way, the optimal input format can be suggested by analyzing the user's past profile information.
[0036] The reception unit can customize input items based on the user's current living situation and areas of interest when entering profile information. For example, the reception unit automatically displays related input items when the user enters their current living situation. The reception unit can also customize input items based on the user's areas of interest and prioritize the input of related information. Furthermore, the reception unit can analyze the user's current living situation and areas of interest and suggest optimal input items. For example, the reception unit automatically displays related input items when the user enters their current living situation. This allows the user to enter more appropriate information by customizing input items based on the user's current living situation and areas of interest.
[0037] When inputting profile information, the reception unit can select an input means according to the user's input method. For example, if the user selects voice input, the reception unit inputs the profile information using voice recognition technology. Furthermore, if the user selects text input, the reception unit can also provide an interface optimized for text input. Furthermore, if the user selects image input, the reception unit can also input the profile information using image recognition technology. For example, if the user selects voice input, the reception unit inputs the profile information using voice recognition technology. This allows for more efficient input by selecting the optimal input means according to the user's input method.
[0038] When entering profile information, the reception unit can prioritize input of highly relevant information based on the user's geographical location information. For example, if the user lives in a specific area, the reception unit can prioritize input of information related to that area. Furthermore, if the user is traveling, the reception unit can also prioritize input of related information based on the user's current location. Furthermore, the reception unit can analyze the user's geographical location information and suggest optimal input items. For example, if the user lives in a specific area, the reception unit can prioritize input of information related to that area. In this way, highly relevant information can be prioritized by taking the user's geographical location information into consideration.
[0039] When entering profile information, the reception unit can analyze the user's social media activity and input related information. For example, the reception unit automatically inputs profile information based on information that the user has made public on social media. The reception unit can also analyze the user's social media activity and input related information. Furthermore, the reception unit can also input related information by taking into account the user's friendships on social media. For example, the reception unit automatically inputs profile information based on information that the user has made public on social media. In this way, related information can be input by analyzing the user's social media activity.
[0040] The reception unit can adjust the input method by reflecting the user's past feedback when entering profile information. For example, the reception unit can suggest an optimal input method based on feedback provided by the user in the past. The reception unit can also customize the input interface based on the user's past feedback. Furthermore, the reception unit can analyze the user's past feedback and optimize the input procedure. For example, the reception unit can suggest an optimal input method based on feedback provided by the user in the past. In this way, the optimal input method can be provided by reflecting the user's past feedback.
[0041] When proposing matching candidates, the analysis unit can adjust the level of detail of the proposal based on the user's profile information. For example, if the user's hobbies and interests are important, the analysis unit can propose detailed matching candidates based on that. In addition, if the user's age and gender are important, the analysis unit can also propose detailed matching candidates based on that. Furthermore, the analysis unit can propose matching candidates with an optimal level of detail based on the user's past matching history. For example, if the user's hobbies and interests are important, the analysis unit can propose detailed matching candidates based on that. This allows for more appropriate proposals by adjusting the level of detail of the proposal based on the importance of the user's profile information.
[0042] When proposing matching candidates, the analysis unit can apply a proposal algorithm according to the user's hobbies and interests. For example, if the user's hobby is watching movies, the analysis unit can apply an algorithm that preferentially proposes other users who have the same hobby. Also, if the user's interest is sports, the analysis unit can apply an algorithm that preferentially proposes other users who have the same interest. Furthermore, the analysis unit can analyze the user's hobbies and interests and apply an optimal proposal algorithm. For example, if the user's hobby is watching movies, the analysis unit can apply an algorithm that preferentially proposes other users who have the same hobby. In this way, by applying different proposal algorithms according to the user's hobbies and interests, more appropriate matching candidates can be proposed.
[0043] When proposing matching candidates, the analysis unit can improve the accuracy of the suggestions based on the user's past matching results. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the user's past matching results and improves the accuracy of the suggestions based on successful matching patterns. The analysis unit can also eliminate unsuccessful matching patterns from the user's past matching results and improve the accuracy of the suggestions. Furthermore, the analysis unit can also suggest optimal matching candidates by referring to the user's past matching results. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the user's past matching results and improves the accuracy of the suggestions based on successful matching patterns. In this way, the accuracy of the suggestions is improved by referring to the user's past matching results.
[0044] When proposing match candidates, the analysis unit can prioritize proposing highly relevant candidates based on the user's geographical location information. For example, if the user lives in a specific area, the analysis unit can prioritize proposing match candidates related to that area. Also, if the user is traveling, the analysis unit can prioritize proposing related match candidates based on the user's current location. Furthermore, the analysis unit can analyze the user's geographical location information and propose optimal match candidates. For example, if the user lives in a specific area, the analysis unit can prioritize proposing match candidates related to that area. In this way, by taking the user's geographical location information into consideration, highly relevant match candidates can be prioritized.
[0045] When proposing match candidates, the analysis unit can analyze the user's social media activity and suggest related candidates. The analysis unit can, for example, suggest related match candidates based on information that the user has made public on social media. The analysis unit can also analyze the user's social media activity and suggest related match candidates. Furthermore, the analysis unit can also suggest related match candidates based on the user's friendships on social media. For example, the analysis unit can suggest related match candidates based on information that the user has made public on social media. In this way, related match candidates can be suggested by analyzing the user's social media activity.
[0046] When proposing matching candidates, the analysis unit can adjust the proposal method by reflecting the user's past feedback. The analysis unit can propose an optimal proposal method based on, for example, feedback provided by the user in the past. The analysis unit can also customize the proposal algorithm based on the user's past feedback. Furthermore, the analysis unit can analyze the user's past feedback and optimize the proposal procedure. For example, the analysis unit can propose an optimal proposal method based on feedback provided by the user in the past. In this way, the proposal method can be optimized by reflecting the user's past feedback.
[0047] When providing a message template, the providing unit can adjust the content of the template based on the profile information of the matching candidate. The providing unit provides a detailed message template based on, for example, the hobbies and interests of the matching candidate. The providing unit can also provide a detailed message template based on the age and gender of the matching candidate. Furthermore, the providing unit can provide a message template with an optimal level of detail based on the profile information of the matching candidate. For example, the providing unit provides a detailed message template based on the hobbies and interests of the matching candidate. This makes it possible to provide a more appropriate message by adjusting the level of detail of the template based on the profile information of the matching candidate.
[0048] When providing message templates, the providing unit can provide multiple templates according to the user's hobbies and interests. For example, if the user's hobby is watching movies, the providing unit can provide a message template related to movies. Also, if the user's interest is sports, the providing unit can provide a message template related to sports. Furthermore, the providing unit can analyze the user's hobbies and interests and provide an optimal message template. For example, if the user's hobby is watching movies, the providing unit can provide a message template related to movies. In this way, by providing different templates according to the user's hobbies and interests, more appropriate messages can be provided.
[0049] When providing a message template, the providing unit can improve the accuracy of the template based on the user's past message history. For example, the providing unit analyzes the user's past message history and improves the accuracy of the template based on patterns of successful messages. The providing unit can also improve the accuracy of the template by eliminating unsuccessful message patterns from the user's past message history. Furthermore, the providing unit can provide an optimal message template by referring to the user's past message history. For example, the providing unit analyzes the user's past message history and improves the accuracy of the template based on patterns of successful messages. In this way, the accuracy of the template is improved by referring to the user's past message history.
[0050] When providing message templates, the providing unit can determine the order of templates based on the submission date of matching candidates. For example, if a matching candidate has been submitted recently, the providing unit can provide a message template related to that candidate with priority. Also, if a matching candidate has been submitted in the past, the providing unit can provide a message template related to that candidate. Furthermore, the providing unit can analyze the submission date of the matching candidate and provide an optimal message template. For example, if a matching candidate has been submitted recently, the providing unit can provide a message template related to that candidate with priority. In this way, by determining the priority of templates based on the submission date of the matching candidate, a more appropriate message can be provided.
[0051] When providing message templates, the providing unit can determine the order of the templates based on the relevance of the matching candidates. For example, if the relevance of a matching candidate is high, the providing unit can preferentially provide a message template related to that candidate. Also, if the relevance of a matching candidate is low, the providing unit can postpone the message template related to that candidate. Furthermore, the providing unit can analyze the relevance of the matching candidates and provide the message templates in an optimal order. For example, if the relevance of a matching candidate is high, the providing unit preferentially provides a message template related to that candidate. In this way, by adjusting the order of templates based on the relevance of the matching candidates, a more appropriate message can be provided.
[0052] When providing a message template, the providing unit can determine the use of technical terms in the template depending on the user's level of expertise. For example, if the user's level of expertise is high, the providing unit can provide a message template that uses a lot of technical terms. In addition, if the user's level of expertise is low, the providing unit can provide a simple message template that avoids technical terms. Furthermore, the providing unit can analyze the user's level of expertise and provide a message template in which the use of technical terms is adjusted to be optimal. For example, if the user's level of expertise is high, the providing unit can provide a message template that uses a lot of technical terms. In this way, by adjusting the use of technical terms in the template depending on the user's level of expertise, a more appropriate message can be provided.
[0053] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the above-described example, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.
[0054] The reception unit can also provide real-time feedback based on the user's input. For example, if the user inputs "watching movies" as a hobby, the reception unit can present an additional question such as "What movie have you seen recently?". The reception unit can also suggest related topics and questions based on the information entered by the user. Furthermore, the reception unit can provide appropriate advice and suggestions in real time for the information entered by the user. This allows the user to enter more detailed and comprehensive profile information.
[0055] The analysis unit can also estimate the user's lifestyle and values based on the user's profile information and suggest matching candidates based on that. For example, if the user likes outdoor activities, other users who also enjoy outdoor activities can be suggested. Also, if the user is interested in environmental protection, users who share the same values can be suggested. Furthermore, the analysis unit can prioritize suggesting users who share common hobbies and interests based on the user's lifestyle and values. This makes it possible to suggest more appropriate matching candidates based on the user's lifestyle and values.
[0056] The providing unit can also analyze the user's past message history and improve the accuracy of the template based on patterns of successful messages. For example, it analyzes messages that the user has sent in the past that received a good response from the recipient and provides a template that incorporates that pattern. It can also improve the accuracy of the template by eliminating messages that the user has sent in the past that received a poor response from the recipient. Furthermore, it can also provide an optimal message template by referring to the user's past message history. In this way, the accuracy of the template can be improved by referring to the user's past message history.
[0057] The analysis unit can also predict the user's future behavior and interests based on the user's profile information and suggest matching candidates based on that. For example, if the user recently started a new hobby, other users related to that hobby can be suggested. Also, if the user is planning a trip in the future, users related to that travel destination can be suggested. Furthermore, the analysis unit can predict the user's future behavior and interests and suggest optimal matching candidates based on that. This makes it possible to suggest more appropriate matching candidates based on the user's future behavior and interests.
[0058] The analysis unit can also estimate the user's health condition and fitness level based on the user's profile information and suggest matching candidates based on that. For example, if the user has an active lifestyle, other users with a similar active lifestyle can be suggested. Also, if the user is interested in health, users who are also interested in health can be suggested. Furthermore, based on the user's health condition and fitness level, users who share common health goals can be preferentially suggested. This allows more appropriate matching candidates to be suggested based on the user's health condition and fitness level.
[0059] The processing flow of the first embodiment will be briefly explained below.
[0060] Step 1: The reception unit receives the user's profile information. The user's profile information may include, but is not limited to, for example, name, age, hobbies, and interests. The reception unit, for example, stores the information entered by the user in a database. The reception unit may also send the information entered by the user to the generation AI. Step 2: The analysis unit uses the generation AI to analyze the information received by the reception unit and propose optimal match candidates.

[0061] (Example 2) A matching system according to an embodiment of the present invention efficiently analyzes a user's profile information, proposes optimal match candidates, and provides message templates. In the matching system, a user inputs profile information, and a generation AI analyzes the information to propose optimal match candidates. Furthermore, message templates are provided to the user based on the match candidates proposed by the generation AI. For example, in the matching system, a user inputs detailed information such as their name, age, hobbies, and interests. This information is input to the generation AI. The generation AI then analyzes the input information and proposes optimal match candidates. For example, for a user whose hobby is watching movies, other users with the same hobby can be proposed. Furthermore, message templates are provided to the user based on the match candidates proposed by the generation AI. For example, a template such as "Hello, I love movies too. What movies have you seen recently?" can be provided as a first message. This allows users to efficiently match. This allows the matching system to analyze a user's profile information, propose optimal match candidates, and provide message templates. For example, users with common hobbies can be matched and smoothly start communicating, making it easier for romantic relationships to develop.
[0062] A matching system according to an embodiment includes a reception unit, an analysis unit, and a provision unit. The reception unit receives profile information from a user.

Furthermore, if the user selects text input, the reception unit can also provide an interface optimized for text input. Furthermore, if the user selects image input, the reception unit can also input the profile information using image recognition technology. For example, if the user selects voice input, the reception unit inputs the profile information using voice recognition technology. This allows for more efficient input by selecting the optimal input means according to the user's input method.
[0072] The reception unit can analyze the user's emotions and determine the priority of the profile information to be input based on the analyzed user's emotions. For example, if the user is nervous, the reception unit can prioritize input of basic information (such as name and age). Furthermore, if the user is relaxed, the reception unit can prioritize input of detailed information (such as hobbies and interests). Furthermore, if the user is in a hurry, the reception unit can prioritize input of the most important information. For example, if the user is nervous, the reception unit can prioritize input of basic information. Thus, by determining the priority of the profile information according to the user's emotions, more appropriate information can be prioritized and input. Emotion estimation is realized using an emotion estimation function, such as an emotion engine or a generation AI. The generation AI can be, but is not limited to, a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) or a multimodal generation AI.

[0158] 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.
[0159] 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.
[0160] 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.
[0161] 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).
[0162] 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.
[0163] 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."
[0164] 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.
[0165] 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.
[0166] 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.
[0167] 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.
[0168] 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.
[0169] 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.
[0170] 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.
[0171] 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.
[0172] 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.
[0173] 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.
[0174] The above-described description and illustrations are a detailed explanation of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure and are merely an example of the technology of the present disclosure. 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.
