[0037] To implement this invention, a system using a user terminal, a server, a generation AI, and the Internet is required. Below, the processing of the programs that make up this system will be explained in detail in natural language.
[0038] Overall system configuration
[0039] 1. User Device
[0040] The device operated by the user (smartphone, tablet, AR glasses, etc.) uses a dedicated application to acquire 2D data and send it to the server. The specific data input by the user includes information such as weather, news, and maps.
[0041] Example: A user opens a smartphone application and taps the "Get Weather Information" button to get weather information.
[0042] 2. Server
[0043] The server receives the 2D data sent from the user's device, analyzes it, and extracts the necessary feature information. It then inputs the extracted feature information into a generation AI, which automatically generates a 3D model. The generated 3D model is then further optimized and converted into a format suitable for the user's device. The generated 3D model is then sent to the user's device.
[0044] Example: A server receives weather information sent from a smartphone app, analyzes and extracts data such as temperature, humidity, and wind speed, and inputs that data into a generative AI to generate a 3D weather forecast model.
[0045] 3. Generation AI
[0046] Generative AI is responsible for generating 3D models based on datasets provided by the server. For example, it generates 3D models that visually represent cloud movement and temperature distribution based on weather data.
[0047] Example: Generative AI takes temperature, humidity, and wind speed data as input and generates a 3D model to visualize real-time weather forecasts.
[0048] 4. Distribution and display on devices
[0049] The server optimizes the generated 3D model, converts it into an appropriate format, and sends it to the user's device, where it displays the received 3D model, allowing the user to view it in real time.
[0050] Example: The optimized 3D weather model is sent to the AR glasses, allowing users to see the real-time weather forecast in 3D through the glasses.
[0051] Specific examples
[0052] 3D model generation for weather forecasts
[0053] 1. The user taps the "Get Weather Information" button on the smartphone app.
[0054] 2. The device sends a request to the weather API, obtains JSON data of current weather information (temperature, humidity, wind speed, etc.), and sends it to the server.
[0055] 3. The server receives the JSON data and analyzes and extracts the necessary weather information (temperature, humidity, wind speed, precipitation probability, etc.).
[0056] 4. Based on the weather information extracted by the server, a dataset is created to be input into the generation AI and sent to the generation AI.
[0057] 5. The generative AI generates a 3D model of the weather forecast based on the input dataset and returns the results to the server.
[0058] 6. The server converts the received 3D model into GLTF format and sends it to the device (such as AR glasses).
[0059] 7. The device renders the received 3D model and visually displays it to the user, allowing the user to see a real-time weather forecast in 3D.
[0060] The system allows users to easily understand information such as weather, news, and maps using intuitive, visual 3D models. By utilizing generative AI, manual model creation is no longer necessary, enabling fast and efficient information visualization.

[0064] Step 2:
[0065] The device accesses the weather information API and sends a request to the server, which includes location information, the current time, and other information.
[0066] Step 3:
[0067] The server receives 2D data from a weather information API, usually in JSON format, including information such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, and chance of precipitation.
[0068] Step 4:
[0069] The server analyzes the received JSON data and extracts the necessary characteristic information (temperature, humidity, wind speed, probability of precipitation, etc.).
[0070] Step 5:
[0071] The server creates a dataset based on the extracted feature information to be input into the generative AI. The dataset contains each element of weather information.
[0072] Step 6:
[0073] The server sends the dataset to the generation AI, which then starts the process of generating a 3D model. The generation AI generates a 3D weather forecast model based on the input weather data.
[0074] Step 7:
[0075] The generation AI returns the generated 3D model to the server, which then optimizes the received 3D model and converts it into a display format (e.g., GLTF format).
[0076] Step 8:
[0077] The server sends the optimized 3D model to the device.
[0078] Step 9:
[0079] The device renders the received 3D model and displays it on the user's display device (e.g., AR glasses). Through the AR glasses, the user can check the real-time weather forecast in 3D.
[0080] Step 10:
[0081] If necessary, the user can interact with the displayed 3D model, for example, by moving the time forward or backward to check future or past weather information.

[0097] MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
[0098] To implement this invention, a system using a user terminal, a server, a generation AI, and the Internet is required. Below, the processing of the programs that make up this system will be explained in detail in natural language.
[0099] Overall system configuration
[0100] User terminal
[0101] A dedicated application is installed on the user's device (smartphone, tablet, AR glasses, etc.). This application acquires 2D data from the user and sends it to the server. Specifically, when the user taps the "Get Weather Information" button, a request is sent to the weather API, current weather information is acquired, and it is sent to the server.
[0102] server
[0103] The server receives and analyzes the 2D data sent from the user's device. During the analysis, feature information such as temperature, humidity, and wind speed is extracted. The analysis is performed using the Python pandas library. A dataset is then created based on the extracted feature information and sent to the generation AI.

The generated 3D model visually represents, for example, cloud movement and temperature distribution.
[0106] Distribution and display on terminals
[0107] The server optimizes the generated 3D model and converts it into a format suitable for the user device (e.g., GLTF format). The server then sends the optimized model to the user device. The user device then renders and displays the received 3D model. This allows the user to intuitively and visually confirm real-time information.
[0108] Specific examples
[0109] 3D model generation for weather forecasts
[0110] When a user taps the "Get Weather Information" button on a smartphone app, the device sends a request to the weather API, obtains JSON data of current weather information (temperature, humidity, wind speed, etc.), and sends it to the server. The server receives the JSON data, analyzes and extracts weather information such as temperature, humidity, and wind speed. The server then creates a dataset based on the extracted weather information and sends it to the generation AI. The generation AI generates a 3D model of the weather forecast based on the dataset and returns the result to the server. The server converts the received 3D model into GLTF format and sends it to the device. The device renders the received 3D model, allowing the user to view the real-time weather forecast in 3D.
[0111] Example prompt:
[0112] By tapping the "Get Weather Information" button, the device sends a request to the weather API to obtain current weather information. The data sent to the server is then analyzed to create a dataset to input into the generation AI. The generation AI generates a 3D model based on the dataset and sends the optimized model to the device. The device then renders the 3D model and displays it to the user.
[0113] This system allows users to intuitively and visually understand information such as weather, news, maps, etc. By utilizing generative AI, manual model creation is no longer necessary, enabling fast and efficient information visualization.
[0114] The flow of the identification process in the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
[0115] Step 1:
[0116] The user initiates an action
[0117] A user opens a smartphone application and taps the "Get Weather Information" button. This initiates an operation. The input is the user's action, and the output is a request to get weather information.
[0118] Step 2:
[0119] The device retrieves weather data
[0120] The device sends a request to the weather API to obtain current weather information. For example, access "https: / / api.weather.com / v3 / wx / conditions / current?apiKey=YOUR_API_KEY&format=json". The input is the API request, and the output is JSON data containing weather data such as temperature, humidity, and wind speed. The device sends this data to the server.
[0121] Step 3:
[0122] The server receives and analyzes the data
[0123] The server receives JSON data sent from the device. It analyzes the received data and extracts feature information such as temperature, humidity, and wind speed. The Python pandas library is used for analysis. The input is JSON data, and the output is the extracted feature information.
[0124] Step 4:
[0125] The server sends the data to the generated AI.
[0126] The server creates a dataset based on the extracted feature information and sends the dataset to the generation AI. The data is then formatted into the format required by the generation AI and sent. The input is the feature information and dataset, and the output is data sent to the generation AI.
[0127] Step 5:
[0128] Generative AI generates 3D models
[0129] The generative AI generates a 3D model based on a dataset provided by the server. The generation process uses deep learning libraries such as TensorFlow and PyTorch. The input is the dataset, and the output is the generated 3D model.
[0130] Step 6:
[0131] The server optimizes the 3D model
[0132] The server optimizes the generated 3D model and converts it into a format suitable for the user's device (e.g., GLTF format) using an appropriate optimization algorithm. The input is the generated 3D model, and the output is the optimized 3D model.
[0133] Step 7:
[0134] Display the optimized model for your device
[0135] The user device receives the optimized 3D model, renders it, and displays it. Rendering is performed in real time using a game engine such as Unity. The input is the optimized 3D model, and the output is a visual display of the rendered 3D model.

[0167] Specific examples
[0168] If the factory temperature exceeds 50 degrees, a red warning area will be displayed in the generated 3D model. Also, if a specific machine is stopped, an icon indicating this will be displayed on the factory map.

[0174] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.
[0175] Step 1:
[0176] Data collection from user devices
[0177] The user terminal collects various sensor data from within the factory (temperature, humidity, machine operation status, etc.) The data obtained from the sensors is collected in real time and handled as a single data set.
[0178] Input: Various sensor data
[0179] Output: Collected dataset
[0180] Step 2:
[0181] Sending data from the user device to the server
[0182] The user device sends the collected data set to the server using an HTTP request, which includes information such as temperature, humidity, and machine operation status.
[0183] Input: Collected dataset

[0185] Step 3:
[0186] Data analysis by server
[0187] The server receives the data set and analyzes it, extracting temperature and humidity data, as well as machine operating status. This analyzed data is then formatted into specific feature information.
[0188] Input: Dataset
[0189] Output: Feature information
[0190] Step 4:
[0191] Input to AI for generating feature information
[0192] The server sends the extracted feature information as a dataset to the generation AI, which then generates prompt sentences in a specific format and inputs them to the AI.

[0195] Step 5:
[0196] Generating 3D models using generative AI

[0200] Step 6:

[0202] The generated 3D model is optimized by the server. The optimized 3D model is then adjusted so that it can be displayed efficiently on the user's device. This optimization process involves converting the file format and reducing the file size.
[0203] Input: 3D model data
[0204] Output: Optimized 3D model data
[0205] Step 7:
[0206] Sending the optimized 3D model to the user device
[0207] The server sends the optimized 3D model to the user's device using an HTTP POST request, which then displays the data appropriately on the user's device.
[0208] Input: Optimized 3D model data
[0209] Output: Request to send data to the user terminal
[0210] Step 8:
[0211] Display of 3D models on user devices
[0212] The user device displays the received 3D model, and the real-time situation inside the factory is visualized in 3D on the display of smart glasses or a smartphone, allowing the user to check it.
[0213] Input: Optimized 3D model data
[0214] Output: A representation of the 3D model as seen by the user
[0215] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotion may be combined. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may estimate the user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.

[0247] Step 2:
[0248] The device accesses the weather information API and requests weather data based on the specified location and time, and obtains two-dimensional data such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, and precipitation probability from the API.

[0270] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[0271] In today's digital information society, users acquire a wide variety of information, and the amount of information is enormous. Weather information, news, and map information, in particular, change daily, and users need to be able to instantly understand that information. However, traditional two-dimensional data displays often make it difficult to intuitively grasp information. Furthermore, information display does not take into account the user's emotional state, resulting in insufficient personalization. The present invention aims to solve these problems and provide efficient and personalized information.
[0272] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.
[0273] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving 2D data from a user terminal, means for analyzing the received 2D data and extracting feature information, means for receiving and analyzing emotion data from the user terminal, means for generating a 3D model using a generation AI based on the extracted feature information and emotion data, means for optimizing the generated 3D model, converting it into a display format, and transmitting it to the user terminal, and means for displaying the received 3D model on the user terminal. This allows users to easily understand information using intuitive and visual 3D models, and further enables personalized information display based on the user's emotions.

[0282] MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
[0283] To implement this invention, a user terminal, a server, a generating AI, an emotion engine, and a system that utilizes the Internet are required.
[0284] Hardware and software used
[0285] User devices: Smartphones, tablets, AR glasses, etc. These devices are equipped with internet connectivity, cameras, and microphones. A dedicated application is installed, and an emotion engine is also installed to acquire 2D data and analyze emotion data.
[0286] Server: A high-performance computer system that receives data, analyzes it, creates generative AI models, optimizes them, and transmits them. It includes a database system, an analysis engine, generative AI (e.g., OpenAI's DALL-E), and optimization tools.
[0287] Internet: A communications network for transmitting data between user terminals and servers.
[0288] System operation procedure
[0289] The user device acquires 2D data (e.g., weather information) through user operation and sends it to the server. The server analyzes the received data and extracts feature information such as weather information. At the same time, the user device uses an emotion engine to analyze the user's emotions and sends the results to the server. The server combines the extracted feature information and emotion data to create a dataset to input into the generative AI. The generative AI generates a 3D model based on the input data and returns it to the server. The server optimizes the generated 3D model, converts it into a display format (e.g., GLTF format), and sends it to the user device. Finally, the user device renders the received 3D model and displays it on the user's display device.
[0290] Detailed processing example
[0291] When a user taps the "Get Weather Information" button on a smartphone app, the device sends a request to a weather information API (e.g., OpenWeatherMap API), obtains JSON data of current weather information (temperature, humidity, wind speed, etc.), and sends it to the server. The server receives the JSON data, analyzes and extracts the necessary weather information (e.g., temperature, humidity, wind speed, probability of precipitation, etc.). At the same time, the device's built-in emotion engine analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice to recognize the user's emotions. The recognition results are then sent to the server.
[0292] The server creates a dataset to be input into the generation AI based on the extracted weather information and emotion recognition results, and sends it to the generation AI. The generation AI generates a 3D model of the weather forecast corresponding to the emotion based on the input dataset and emotion recognition results, and sends it back to the server. The server optimizes the generated 3D model, converts it to GLTF format, and sends it to the device. The device renders the received 3D model and displays it on the user's display device (e.g., AR glasses).
[0293] Prompt Sentence Examples
[0294] Input: Temperature 25°C, humidity 60%, wind speed 5 m / s, user emotion is happiness
[0295] Output: A 3D model of a sunny weather forecast with a rainbow that reflects happiness
[0296] This system allows users to easily understand information such as weather, news, and maps using intuitive, visual 3D models. By utilizing generative AI and an emotion engine, it eliminates the need for manual model creation, enabling fast and efficient visualization and personalization of information. This system is a powerful tool for aiding information understanding.

[0404] Conventional information provision systems have difficulty providing users with personalized real-time information, and are unable to provide information that reflects the user's emotions or current location, particularly in the case of shopping in physical stores. As a result, users are unable to efficiently obtain the information they need, making it difficult to improve their shopping experience.
[0405] The identification process by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes means for receiving 2D data from a user terminal, means for analyzing the received 2D data and extracting feature information, and means for combining the extracted feature information with the emotion recognition result of the emotion engine and generating a 3D model using a generation AI.

[0419] Overall system configuration
[0420] 1. User Device
[0421] A device operated by the user, such as smart glasses, smartphones, or tablets, has a dedicated application installed on the user's device, which recognizes location information and emotions in real time and sends 2D data to a server. It also uses an emotion engine to analyze emotions in real time from the user's facial expressions and voice.
[0422] 2. Server
[0423] The server receives 2D data and emotion recognition results sent from the user device. It analyzes the data and extracts feature information. Based on the extracted feature information and emotion recognition results, it uses generative AI to generate and optimize a 3D model. The optimized 3D model is converted into a display format (e.g., GLTF format) and sent to the user device.
[0424] What the program does
[0425] 1. Enter and submit data
[0426] When a user wears smart glasses with a location sensor and stands in front of a specific location (for example, a sale section in a physical store), the location sensor and camera detect the location. Based on the detected location information, the user's device accesses the API of the inventory management system, obtains real-time data such as sale information, and sends it to the server.
[0427] 2. Data Receipt and Analysis

[0429] 3. Emotion recognition
[0430] The emotion engine installed in the user device analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice to recognize their emotional state, such as interest or surprise, and this recognition result is also sent to the server.
[0431] 4. 3D model generation using generative AI
[0432] The server creates a dataset for the generation AI based on the extracted feature information and emotion recognition results, and inputs this data into the generation AI. The generation AI then generates a 3D model of the sale information, taking into account the emotion recognition results, and returns the result to the server.
[0433] 5. Optimize and submit the model
[0434] The server optimizes the generated 3D model, converts it into a display format such as GLTF format, and then sends it to the user's terminal.
[0435] 6. Displaying the 3D model
[0436] The user device renders the received 3D model and visually displays it to the user through the smart glasses. Based on the user's emotion recognition results, the display content is adjusted, for example, enhancing color when the user is interested, or adding animation when the user is surprised.
[0437] Specific examples
[0438] Displaying special sales information in physical stores
[0439] 1. A user puts on smart glasses and stands in the bargain section of a supermarket.
[0440] 2. The user device uses a sensor to detect its location within the sale section, sends a request to the inventory management system API, and obtains current sale information (price, number of items in stock, sale end time).
[0441] 3. The server analyzes the received inventory information and extracts important information such as price and stock quantity.
[0442] 4. The emotion engine installed on the user device analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice in real time to recognize the user's emotions (e.g., interest or surprise). The recognition results are sent to the server.
[0443] 5. Based on the extracted sale information and emotion recognition results, the server creates a dataset for the generation AI and inputs it. The generation AI generates a 3D model of the sale information according to the emotion and returns the result to the server.
[0444] 6. The server converts the received 3D model into GLTF format and sends it to the user's device.
[0445] 7. The user device renders the received 3D model, and through the smart glasses, the user can check real-time inventory information and sales information corresponding to the sale section in 3D. Furthermore, the display content is adjusted based on the user's emotions.
[0446] Example prompts to input to the generative AI model
[0447] "Generate emotionally relevant 3D models of your sale section's inventory. Use vibrant colors to emphasize interest and add animations for surprise."
[0448] The system allows users to visually view personalized sales information based on their emotions, enhancing the intuitive shopping experience.
[0449] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.
[0450] Step 1:
[0451] A user puts on smart glasses and stands at a specific location in a store. The location sensor and camera on the smart glasses detect this location and capture its location information. The location information becomes input data, which is then sent to a server by an application on the user's device.
[0452] Step 2:
[0453] The server receives location information sent from the user's device. Based on the received location information, the server accesses the inventory management system API and obtains sale information (price, stock quantity, sale end time) related to a specific location in the store. This sale information is analyzed by the server, and characteristic information such as price and stock quantity is extracted.
[0454] Step 3:
[0455] After processing the feature information, the emotion engine installed in the user device analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice in real time. This analysis recognizes the user's emotional state (e.g., interest, surprise). The recognized emotion data is sent from the user device to the server.
[0456] Step 4:

[0671] The server creates a dataset for the generation AI based on the analyzed data and emotion recognition results, and inputs it into the generation AI, which then generates a 3D model that reflects the user's emotions in the weather information data.
[0672] 5. Optimize and submit the model
[0673] The generation AI returns the generated 3D model to the server, which then optimizes the received 3D model and converts it into a display format (e.g., GLTF format), after which it sends the optimized 3D model to the device.
[0674] 6. Displaying the 3D model
[0675] The device renders the received 3D model and displays it on the user's display device (e.g., AR glasses). Through the AR glasses, the user can check the real-time weather forecast in 3D. The display content is also adjusted based on the user's emotion recognition results.

[0687] The processing flow will be explained below.
[0688] Step 1:
[0689] A user opens a smartphone application and selects the type of 2D data they want to obtain. For example, the user selects weather information and taps the "Get Weather Information" button.
[0690] Step 2:
[0691] The device accesses the weather information API and requests weather data based on the specified location and time, and obtains two-dimensional data such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, and precipitation probability from the API.
[0692] Step 3:

[0694] Step 4:
[0695] The server receives the 2D data sent from the device, analyzes the data format (e.g., JSON), and extracts necessary characteristic information (temperature, humidity, wind speed, precipitation probability, etc.) from the analyzed data.
[0696] Step 5:
[0697] The device's emotion engine collects the user's facial and voice data, recognizes the user's emotions in real time, and generates emotion recognition results (e.g., joy, sadness, surprise, etc.) and sends them to the server.
[0698] Step 6:

[0708] Step 11:
[0709] The device renders the received 3D model and displays it on the user's display device (e.g., AR glasses). Users can check the real-time weather forecast in 3D through the AR glasses. Emotion-based customization allows users to receive personalized information.
[0710] Step 12:
[0711] Users can interact with the displayed 3D model, for example, by moving forward or backward in time to see future or past weather information, and can also select different emotions from the interface to change the displayed content.

[0713] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[0714] In today's digital information society, users acquire a wide variety of information, and the amount of information is enormous. Weather information, news, and map information, in particular, change daily, and users need to be able to instantly understand that information. However, traditional two-dimensional data displays often make it difficult to intuitively grasp information. Furthermore, information display does not take into account the user's emotional state, resulting in insufficient personalization. The present invention aims to solve these problems and provide efficient and personalized information.

[0716] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving 2D data from a user terminal, means for analyzing the received 2D data and extracting feature information, means for receiving and analyzing emotion data from the user terminal, means for generating a 3D model using a generation AI based on the extracted feature information and emotion data, means for optimizing the generated 3D model, converting it into a display format, and transmitting it to the user terminal, and means for displaying the received 3D model on the user terminal. This allows users to easily understand information using intuitive and visual 3D models, and further enables personalized information display based on the user's emotions.

[0727] Hardware and software used
[0728] User devices: Smartphones, tablets, AR glasses, etc. These devices are equipped with internet connectivity, cameras, and microphones. A dedicated application is installed, and an emotion engine is also installed to acquire 2D data and analyze emotion data.
[0729] Server: A high-performance computer system that receives data, analyzes it, creates generative AI models, optimizes them, and transmits them. It includes a database system, an analysis engine, generative AI (e.g., OpenAI's DALL-E), and optimization tools.
[0730] Internet: A communications network for transmitting data between user terminals and servers.
[0731] System operation procedure
[0732] The user device acquires 2D data (e.g., weather information) through user operation and sends it to the server. The server analyzes the received data and extracts feature information such as weather information. At the same time, the user device uses an emotion engine to analyze the user's emotions and sends the results to the server. The server combines the extracted feature information and emotion data to create a dataset to input into the generative AI. The generative AI generates a 3D model based on the input data and returns it to the server. The server optimizes the generated 3D model, converts it into a display format (e.g., GLTF format), and sends it to the user device. Finally, the user device renders the received 3D model and displays it on the user's display device.
[0733] Detailed processing example
[0734] When a user taps the "Get Weather Information" button on a smartphone app, the device sends a request to a weather information API (e.g., OpenWeatherMap API), obtains JSON data of current weather information (temperature, humidity, wind speed, etc.), and sends it to the server. The server receives the JSON data, analyzes and extracts the necessary weather information (e.g., temperature, humidity, wind speed, probability of precipitation, etc.). At the same time, the device's built-in emotion engine analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice to recognize the user's emotions. The recognition results are then sent to the server.
[0735] The server creates a dataset to be input into the generation AI based on the extracted weather information and emotion recognition results, and sends it to the generation AI. The generation AI generates a 3D model of the weather forecast corresponding to the emotion based on the input dataset and emotion recognition results, and sends it back to the server. The server optimizes the generated 3D model, converts it to GLTF format, and sends it to the device. The device renders the received 3D model and displays it on the user's display device (e.g., AR glasses).
[0736] Prompt Sentence Examples
[0737] Input: Temperature 25°C, humidity 60%, wind speed 5 m / s, user emotion is happiness
[0738] Output: A 3D model of a sunny weather forecast with a rainbow that reflects happiness
[0739] This system allows users to easily understand information such as weather, news, and maps using intuitive, visual 3D models. By utilizing generative AI and an emotion engine, it eliminates the need for manual model creation, enabling fast and efficient visualization and personalization of information. This system is a powerful tool for aiding information understanding.

[0862] Overall system configuration
[0863] 1. User Device
[0864] A device operated by the user, such as smart glasses, smartphones, or tablets, has a dedicated application installed on the user's device, which recognizes location information and emotions in real time and sends 2D data to a server. It also uses an emotion engine to analyze emotions in real time from the user's facial expressions and voice.
[0865] 2. Server
[0866] The server receives 2D data and emotion recognition results sent from the user device. It analyzes the data and extracts feature information. Based on the extracted feature information and emotion recognition results, it uses generative AI to generate and optimize a 3D model. The optimized 3D model is converted into a display format (e.g., GLTF format) and sent to the user device.
[0867] What the program does
[0868] 1. Enter and submit data
[0869] When a user wears smart glasses with a location sensor and stands in front of a specific location (for example, a sale section in a physical store), the location sensor and camera detect the location. Based on the detected location information, the user's device accesses the API of the inventory management system, obtains real-time data such as sale information, and sends it to the server.
[0870] 2. Data Receipt and Analysis
[0871] The server analyzes the received real-time data and extracts important information such as price, stock quantity, and sale end time.
[0872] 3. Emotion recognition
[0873] The emotion engine installed in the user device analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice to recognize their emotional state, such as interest or surprise, and this recognition result is also sent to the server.
[0874] 4. 3D model generation using generative AI
[0875] The server creates a dataset for the generation AI based on the extracted feature information and emotion recognition results, and inputs this data into the generation AI. The generation AI then generates a 3D model of the sale information, taking into account the emotion recognition results, and returns the result to the server.
[0876] 5. Optimize and submit the model
[0877] The server optimizes the generated 3D model, converts it into a display format such as GLTF format, and then sends it to the user's terminal.
[0878] 6. Displaying the 3D model
[0879] The user device renders the received 3D model and visually displays it to the user through the smart glasses. Based on the user's emotion recognition results, the display content is adjusted, for example, enhancing color when the user is interested, or adding animation when the user is surprised.
[0880] Specific examples
[0881] Displaying special sales information in physical stores
[0882] 1. A user puts on smart glasses and stands in the bargain section of a supermarket.
[0883] 2. The user device uses a sensor to detect its location within the sale section, sends a request to the inventory management system API, and obtains current sale information (price, number of items in stock, sale end time).
[0884] 3. The server analyzes the received inventory information and extracts important information such as price and stock quantity.
[0885] 4. The emotion engine installed on the user device analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice in real time to recognize the user's emotions (e.g., interest or surprise). The recognition results are sent to the server.
[0886] 5. Based on the extracted sale information and emotion recognition results, the server creates a dataset for the generation AI and inputs it. The generation AI generates a 3D model of the sale information according to the emotion and returns the result to the server.
[0887] 6. The server converts the received 3D model into GLTF format and sends it to the user's device.
[0888] 7. The user device renders the received 3D model, and through the smart glasses, the user can check real-time inventory information and sales information corresponding to the sale section in 3D. Furthermore, the display content is adjusted based on the user's emotions.
[0889] Example prompts to input to the generative AI model
[0890] "Generate emotionally relevant 3D models of your sale section's inventory. Use vibrant colors to emphasize interest and add animations for surprise."
[0891] The system allows users to visually view personalized sales information based on their emotions, enhancing the intuitive shopping experience.
[0892] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.
[0893] Step 1:
[0894] A user puts on smart glasses and stands at a specific location in a store. The location sensor and camera on the smart glasses detect this location and capture its location information. The location information becomes input data, which is then sent to a server by an application on the user's device.
[0895] Step 2:
[0896] The server receives location information sent from the user's device. Based on the received location information, the server accesses the inventory management system API and obtains sale information (price, stock quantity, sale end time) related to a specific location in the store. This sale information is analyzed by the server, and characteristic information such as price and stock quantity is extracted.
[0897] Step 3:
[0898] After processing the feature information, the emotion engine installed in the user device analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice in real time. This analysis recognizes the user's emotional state (e.g., interest, surprise). The recognized emotion data is sent from the user device to the server.
[0899] Step 4:
[0900] The server receives the emotion recognition results. The received feature information and the emotion recognition results are combined to create a dataset to be input into the generation AI. This dataset is prompt data that the generation AI uses to generate a 3D model that reflects the user's emotions in the sale information.
[0901] Step 5:
[0902] The generative AI receives the created dataset as input and generates a 3D model based on the sale information. The generated 3D model reflects the user's emotions and visually emphasizes the sale information, and is sent back to the server.
[0903] Step 6:
[0904] The server optimizes the 3D model returned by the AI generator and converts it into an appropriate display format (e.g., GLTF format). The converted 3D model is then sent to the user's device.
[0905] Step 7:
[0906] The user device renders the 3D model received from the server and displays it visually to the user through the smart glasses. Special sale information is displayed in real time as a 3D model, and color enhancement and animation are added based on the user's emotion recognition results. This allows the user to understand the special sale information more intuitively.
[0907] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart glasses 214. In the smart glasses 214, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating a user input regarding the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits audio data indicating the user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.
[0908] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet Search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">) and other generation AIs. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. A prompt including an instruction is input to the data generation model 58, and inference data such as voice data indicating voice, text data indicating text, and image data indicating an image is also input. The data generation model 58 performs inference on the input inference data in accordance with the instruction indicated by the prompt, and outputs the inference result in a data format such as voice data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.

[1156] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the headset type terminal 314 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[1157] In today's digital information society, users acquire a wide variety of information, and the amount of information is enormous. Weather information, news, and map information, in particular, change daily, and users need to be able to instantly understand that information. However, traditional two-dimensional data displays often make it difficult to intuitively grasp information. Furthermore, information display does not take into account the user's emotional state, resulting in insufficient personalization. The present invention aims to solve these problems and provide efficient and personalized information.
[1158] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.
[1159] In this invention, the server includes means for receiving 2D data from a user terminal, means for analyzing the received 2D data and extracting feature information, means for receiving and analyzing emotion data from the user terminal, means for generating a 3D model using a generation AI based on the extracted feature information and emotion data, means for optimizing the generated 3D model, converting it into a display format, and transmitting it to the user terminal, and means for displaying the received 3D model on the user terminal. This allows users to easily understand information using intuitive and visual 3D models, and further enables personalized information display based on the user's emotions.

[1167] "Display format" refers to a data format for properly displaying a 3D model on a user terminal, and examples include the GLTF format.
[1168] MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
[1169] To implement this invention, a user terminal, a server, a generating AI, an emotion engine, and a system that utilizes the Internet are required.
[1170] Hardware and software used
[1171] User devices: Smartphones, tablets, AR glasses, etc. These devices are equipped with internet connectivity, cameras, and microphones. A dedicated application is installed, and an emotion engine is also installed to acquire 2D data and analyze emotion data.
[1172] Server: A high-performance computer system that receives data, analyzes it, creates generative AI models, optimizes them, and transmits them. It includes a database system, an analysis engine, generative AI (e.g., OpenAI's DALL-E), and optimization tools.
[1173] Internet: A communications network for transmitting data between user terminals and servers.
[1174] System operation procedure
[1175] The user device acquires 2D data (e.g., weather information) through user operation and sends it to the server. The server analyzes the received data and extracts feature information such as weather information. At the same time, the user device uses an emotion engine to analyze the user's emotions and sends the results to the server. The server combines the extracted feature information and emotion data to create a dataset to input into the generative AI. The generative AI generates a 3D model based on the input data and returns it to the server. The server optimizes the generated 3D model, converts it into a display format (e.g., GLTF format), and sends it to the user device. Finally, the user device renders the received 3D model and displays it on the user's display device.
[1176] Detailed processing example
[1177] When a user taps the "Get Weather Information" button on a smartphone app, the device sends a request to a weather information API (e.g., OpenWeatherMap API), obtains JSON data of current weather information (temperature, humidity, wind speed, etc.), and sends it to the server. The server receives the JSON data, analyzes and extracts the necessary weather information (e.g., temperature, humidity, wind speed, probability of precipitation, etc.). At the same time, the device's built-in emotion engine analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice to recognize the user's emotions. The recognition results are then sent to the server.
[1178] The server creates a dataset to be input into the generation AI based on the extracted weather information and emotion recognition results, and sends it to the generation AI. The generation AI generates a 3D model of the weather forecast corresponding to the emotion based on the input dataset and emotion recognition results, and sends it back to the server. The server optimizes the generated 3D model, converts it to GLTF format, and sends it to the device. The device renders the received 3D model and displays it on the user's display device (e.g., AR glasses).
[1179] Prompt Sentence Examples
[1180] Input: Temperature 25°C, humidity 60%, wind speed 5 m / s, user emotion is happiness
[1181] Output: A 3D model of a sunny weather forecast with a rainbow that reflects happiness
[1182] This system allows users to easily understand information such as weather, news, and maps using intuitive, visual 3D models. By utilizing generative AI and an emotion engine, it eliminates the need for manual model creation, enabling fast and efficient visualization and personalization of information. This system is a powerful tool for aiding information understanding.

[1305] Overall system configuration
[1306] 1. User Device
[1307] A device operated by the user, such as smart glasses, smartphones, or tablets, has a dedicated application installed on the user's device, which recognizes location information and emotions in real time and sends 2D data to a server. It also uses an emotion engine to analyze emotions in real time from the user's facial expressions and voice.
[1308] 2. Server
[1309] The server receives 2D data and emotion recognition results sent from the user device. It analyzes the data and extracts feature information. Based on the extracted feature information and emotion recognition results, it uses generative AI to generate and optimize a 3D model. The optimized 3D model is converted into a display format (e.g., GLTF format) and sent to the user device.
[1310] What the program does
[1311] 1. Enter and submit data
[1312] When a user wears smart glasses with a location sensor and stands in front of a specific location (for example, a sale section in a physical store), the location sensor and camera detect the location. Based on the detected location information, the user's device accesses the API of the inventory management system, obtains real-time data such as sale information, and sends it to the server.
[1313] 2. Data Receipt and Analysis
[1314] The server analyzes the received real-time data and extracts important information such as price, stock quantity, and sale end time.
[1315] 3. Emotion recognition
[1316] The emotion engine installed in the user device analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice to recognize their emotional state, such as interest or surprise, and this recognition result is also sent to the server.
[1317] 4. 3D model generation using generative AI
[1318] The server creates a dataset for the generation AI based on the extracted feature information and emotion recognition results, and inputs this data into the generation AI. The generation AI then generates a 3D model of the sale information, taking into account the emotion recognition results, and returns the result to the server.
[1319] 5. Optimize and submit the model
[1320] The server optimizes the generated 3D model, converts it into a display format such as GLTF format, and then sends it to the user's terminal.
[1321] 6. Displaying the 3D model
[1322] The user device renders the received 3D model and visually displays it to the user through the smart glasses. Based on the user's emotion recognition results, the display content is adjusted, for example, enhancing color when the user is interested, or adding animation when the user is surprised.
[1323] Specific examples
[1324] Displaying special sales information in physical stores
[1325] 1. A user puts on smart glasses and stands in the bargain section of a supermarket.
[1326] 2. The user device uses a sensor to detect its location within the sale section, sends a request to the inventory management system API, and obtains current sale information (price, number of items in stock, sale end time).
[1327] 3. The server analyzes the received inventory information and extracts important information such as price and stock quantity.
[1328] 4. The emotion engine installed on the user device analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice in real time to recognize the user's emotions (e.g., interest or surprise). The recognition results are sent to the server.
[1329] 5. Based on the extracted sale information and emotion recognition results, the server creates a dataset for the generation AI and inputs it. The generation AI generates a 3D model of the sale information according to the emotion and returns the result to the server.
[1330] 6. The server converts the received 3D model into GLTF format and sends it to the user's device.
[1331] 7. The user device renders the received 3D model, and through the smart glasses, the user can check real-time inventory information and sales information corresponding to the sale section in 3D. Furthermore, the display content is adjusted based on the user's emotions.
[1332] Example prompts to input to the generative AI model
[1333] "Generate emotionally relevant 3D models of your sale section's inventory. Use vibrant colors to emphasize interest and add animations for surprise."
[1334] The system allows users to visually view personalized sales information based on their emotions, enhancing the intuitive shopping experience.
[1335] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.
[1336] Step 1:
[1337] A user puts on smart glasses and stands at a specific location in a store. The location sensor and camera on the smart glasses detect this location and capture its location information. The location information becomes input data, which is then sent to a server by an application on the user's device.
[1338] Step 2:
[1339] The server receives location information sent from the user's device. Based on the received location information, the server accesses the inventory management system API and obtains sale information (price, stock quantity, sale end time) related to a specific location in the store. This sale information is analyzed by the server, and characteristic information such as price and stock quantity is extracted.
[1340] Step 3:
[1341] After processing the feature information, the emotion engine installed in the user device analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice in real time. This analysis recognizes the user's emotional state (e.g., interest, surprise). The recognized emotion data is sent from the user device to the server.
[1342] Step 4:
[1343] The server receives the emotion recognition results. The received feature information and the emotion recognition results are combined to create a dataset to be input into the generation AI. This dataset is prompt data that the generation AI uses to generate a 3D model that reflects the user's emotions in the sale information.
[1344] Step 5:
[1345] The generative AI receives the created dataset as input and generates a 3D model based on the sale information. The generated 3D model reflects the user's emotions and visually emphasizes the sale information, and is sent back to the server.
[1346] Step 6:
[1347] The server optimizes the 3D model returned by the AI generator and converts it into an appropriate display format (e.g., GLTF format). The converted 3D model is then sent to the user's device.
[1348] Step 7:
[1349] The user device renders the 3D model received from the server and displays it visually to the user through the smart glasses. Special sale information is displayed in real time as a 3D model, and color enhancement and animation are added based on the user's emotion recognition results. This allows the user to understand the special sale information more intuitively.

[1621] When a user taps the "Get Weather Information" button on a smartphone app, the device sends a request to a weather information API (e.g., OpenWeatherMap API), obtains JSON data of current weather information (temperature, humidity, wind speed, etc.), and sends it to the server. The server receives the JSON data, analyzes and extracts the necessary weather information (e.g., temperature, humidity, wind speed, probability of precipitation, etc.). At the same time, the device's built-in emotion engine analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice to recognize the user's emotions. The recognition results are then sent to the server.
[1622] The server creates a dataset to be input into the generation AI based on the extracted weather information and emotion recognition results, and sends it to the generation AI. The generation AI generates a 3D model of the weather forecast corresponding to the emotion based on the input dataset and emotion recognition results, and sends it back to the server. The server optimizes the generated 3D model, converts it to GLTF format, and sends it to the device. The device renders the received 3D model and displays it on the user's display device (e.g., AR glasses).
[1623] Prompt Sentence Examples
[1624] Input: Temperature 25°C, humidity 60%, wind speed 5 m / s, user emotion is happiness
[1625] Output: A 3D model of a sunny weather forecast with a rainbow that reflects happiness

[1732] (Application example 2)
[1733] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the robot 414 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[1734] Conventional information provision systems have difficulty providing users with personalized real-time information, and are unable to provide information that reflects the user's emotions or current location, particularly in the case of shopping in physical stores. As a result, users are unable to efficiently obtain the information they need, making it difficult to improve their shopping experience.
[1735] The identification process by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes means for receiving 2D data from a user terminal, means for analyzing the received 2D data and extracting feature information, and means for combining the extracted feature information with the emotion recognition result of the emotion engine and generating a 3D model using a generation AI. This makes it possible to provide personalized real-time information that reflects the user's emotions and current location information.
[1736] A "user terminal" is a device operated by a user and is part of a system that includes smart glasses, smartphones, tablets, etc.
[1737] "Two-dimensional data" refers to information such as weather information, news, and map information expressed in two-dimensional format.
[1738] "Feature information" is important information extracted from two-dimensional data, and refers to specific numerical values and data such as temperature, humidity, price, and inventory quantity.
[1739] The "emotion engine" is a software component that analyzes emotions from the user's facial expressions and voice in real time.
[1740] "Generative AI" is an artificial intelligence system that generates 3D models based on input data, and has the ability to learn features from datasets and generate models.
[1741] A "3D model" is three-dimensional visual information created by the generative AI based on feature information and emotion recognition results, and is visually displayed to the user.
[1742] The "server" is a computer system that receives and analyzes data sent from the user's device, generates a 3D model using generative AI, optimizes it, and sends it to the user's device.
[1743] "Optimization" is a process of converting the generated 3D model into a display format to ensure smooth display on the user's device.
[1744] "Display format" refers to a data format for displaying a 3D model on a user terminal, such as the GLTF format.
[1745] "Emotion recognition result" is data indicating the emotional state analyzed by the emotion engine from the user's facial expressions and voice.

[1747] "Sale information" is data related to discounts and sales on products in stores, and includes information such as price, number of items in stock, and sale end time.
[1748] The system for implementing this invention utilizes a user terminal, a server, a generating AI, an emotion engine, and the Internet. The detailed program processing of the system will be explained below.
[1749] Overall system configuration
[1750] 1. User Device
[1751] A device operated by the user, such as smart glasses, smartphones, or tablets, has a dedicated application installed on the user's device, which recognizes location information and emotions in real time and sends 2D data to a server. It also uses an emotion engine to analyze emotions in real time from the user's facial expressions and voice.
[1752] 2. Server
[1753] The server receives 2D data and emotion recognition results sent from the user device. It analyzes the data and extracts feature information. Based on the extracted feature information and emotion recognition results, it uses generative AI to generate and optimize a 3D model. The optimized 3D model is converted into a display format (e.g., GLTF format) and sent to the user device.
[1754] What the program does
[1755] 1. Enter and submit data
[1756] When a user wears smart glasses with a location sensor and stands in front of a specific location (for example, a sale section in a physical store), the location sensor and camera detect the location. Based on the detected location information, the user's device accesses the API of the inventory management system, obtains real-time data such as sale information, and sends it to the server.
[1757] 2. Data Receipt and Analysis
[1758] The server analyzes the received real-time data and extracts important information such as price, stock quantity, and sale end time.
[1759] 3. Emotion recognition
[1760] The emotion engine installed in the user device analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice to recognize their emotional state, such as interest or surprise, and this recognition result is also sent to the server.
[1761] 4. 3D model generation using generative AI
[1762] The server creates a dataset for the generation AI based on the extracted feature information and emotion recognition results, and inputs this data into the generation AI. The generation AI then generates a 3D model of the sale information, taking into account the emotion recognition results, and returns the result to the server.
[1763] 5. Optimize and submit the model
[1764] The server optimizes the generated 3D model, converts it into a display format such as GLTF format, and then sends it to the user's terminal.
[1765] 6. Displaying the 3D model
[1766] The user device renders the received 3D model and visually displays it to the user through the smart glasses. Based on the user's emotion recognition results, the display content is adjusted, for example, enhancing color when the user is interested, or adding animation when the user is surprised.
[1767] Specific examples
[1768] Displaying special sales information in physical stores
[1769] 1. A user puts on smart glasses and stands in the bargain section of a supermarket.
[1770] 2. The user device uses a sensor to detect its location within the sale section, sends a request to the inventory management system API, and obtains current sale information (price, number of items in stock, sale end time).
[1771] 3. The server analyzes the received inventory information and extracts important information such as price and stock quantity.
[1772] 4. The emotion engine installed on the user device analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice in real time to recognize the user's emotions (e.g., interest or surprise). The recognition results are sent to the server.
[1773] 5. Based on the extracted sale information and emotion recognition results, the server creates a dataset for the generation AI and inputs it. The generation AI generates a 3D model of the sale information according to the emotion and returns the result to the server.
[1774] 6. The server converts the received 3D model into GLTF format and sends it to the user's device.
[1775] 7. The user device renders the received 3D model, and through the smart glasses, the user can check real-time inventory information and sales information corresponding to the sale section in 3D. Furthermore, the display content is adjusted based on the user's emotions.
[1776] Example prompts to input to the generative AI model
[1777] "Generate emotionally relevant 3D models of your sale section's inventory. Use vibrant colors to emphasize interest and add animations for surprise."
[1778] The system allows users to visually view personalized sales information based on their emotions, enhancing the intuitive shopping experience.
[1779] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.
[1780] Step 1:
[1781] A user puts on smart glasses and stands at a specific location in a store. The location sensor and camera on the smart glasses detect this location and capture its location information. The location information becomes input data, which is then sent to a server by an application on the user's device.
[1782] Step 2:
[1783] The server receives location information sent from the user's device. Based on the received location information, the server accesses the inventory management system API and obtains sale information (price, stock quantity, sale end time) related to a specific location in the store. This sale information is analyzed by the server, and characteristic information such as price and stock quantity is extracted.
[1784] Step 3:
[1785] After processing the feature information, the emotion engine installed in the user device analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice in real time. This analysis recognizes the user's emotional state (e.g., interest, surprise). The recognized emotion data is sent from the user device to the server.
[1786] Step 4:
[1787] The server receives the emotion recognition results. The received feature information and the emotion recognition results are combined to create a dataset to be input into the generation AI. This dataset is prompt data that the generation AI uses to generate a 3D model that reflects the user's emotions in the sale information.
[1788] Step 5:
[1789] The generative AI receives the created dataset as input and generates a 3D model based on the sale information. The generated 3D model reflects the user's emotions and visually emphasizes the sale information, and is sent back to the server.
[1790] Step 6:
[1791] The server optimizes the 3D model returned by the AI generator and converts it into an appropriate display format (e.g., GLTF format). The converted 3D model is then sent to the user's device.
[1792] Step 7:
[1793] The user device renders the 3D model received from the server and displays it visually to the user through the smart glasses. Special sale information is displayed in real time as a 3D model, and color enhancement and animation are added based on the user's emotion recognition results. This allows the user to understand the special sale information more intuitively.
[1794] 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 microphone 238 acquires voice indicating a user input regarding the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits voice data indicating the user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the voice data.
[1795] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet Search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">) and other generation AIs. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. A prompt including an instruction is input to the data generation model 58, and inference data such as voice data indicating voice, text data indicating text, and image data indicating an image is also input. The data generation model 58 performs inference on the input inference data in accordance with the instruction indicated by the prompt, and outputs the inference result in a data format such as voice data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.
[1796] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing is performed by the data processing device 12, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this, and the specific processing may be performed by the robot 414.
[1797] 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.
[1798] FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating 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 actions arising from a state of mind are arranged on the outer edges of the concentric circles. The concept of emotion includes both affect 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.
[1799] 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.
[1800] 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).
[1801] 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 indicated, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is indicated. Emotions can also be created for robots, automobiles, 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 indicated, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is indicated. An emotion map can be generated, for example, based on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on Voice Emotion Recognition and Emotional Brain Physiological Signal Analysis Systems, Tokushima University, Doctoral Dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the "reaction" domain, where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the "situation" domain, where situational awareness is dominant.
[1802] 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."
[1803] 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.
[1804] The system according to the present disclosure has been described above mainly with respect to the functions of the data processing device 12, but the system according to the present disclosure is not necessarily implemented on a server. The system according to the present disclosure may be implemented as a general information processing system. The present disclosure may be implemented, for example, as a software program running on a personal computer or an application running on a smartphone, etc. The method according to the present disclosure may be provided to users in the form of SaaS (Software as a Service).
[1805] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing is performed by one computer 22, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this, and the specific processing may be distributed and performed by a plurality of computers including the computer 22. For example, the data generation model 58 may be provided in an external device of the data processing device 12, and data may be generated in the external device in accordance with input data.
[1806] 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.
[1807] 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.
[1808] 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.
[1809] The hardware resource for executing a specific process can be any of the following processors: An example of a processor 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. Another example of a processor is 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.

Also, the hardware resource that executes the specific processing may be a single processor.
[1811] 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.
[1812] 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.
