[0022] Communication interface 44 is connected to network 54. Communication interfaces 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various types of information between processor 46 and processor 28 via network 54.

[0023] Figure 2 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart device 14.

[0024] As shown in Figure 2, in the data processing device 12, a specific processing 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" related to the technology of this 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 processing is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 according to the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0025] Storage 32 stores the data generation model 58 and the 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 the user's emotions using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotions. The emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59 performs various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotions, including but not limited to these examples. Furthermore, emotion estimation and prediction also include, for example, emotion analysis.

[0026] In the smart device 14, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific processing program 60. The specific processing program 60 is used in conjunction with the specific processing program 56 by the data processing system 10.

The smart device 14 also has a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59, similar to the data generation model and emotion identification model 59, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.

[0027] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also 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 processing results (such as prediction results) using the data generation model 58 by communicating with the server device having the data generation model 58. The data processing device 12 may also be a server device or a terminal device owned by a user (e.g., a mobile phone, robot, home appliance, etc.). Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.

[0028] (Example of form 1) The goal achievement support system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system centered on an application that utilizes a generating AI to support users in achieving goals they have set. In this goal achievement support system, the user decides on the content of their goals in consultation with the AI, and the application presents methods for achieving those goals. The user reports their progress on the application, and based on the report, the application provides encouragement, advice, and adjustments to the timeframe to help them achieve their goals. Upon achieving a goal, the application analyzes what went well and what went wrong, and provides feedback. In addition, achievement points are awarded, which can be exchanged for electronic payment points. By using this service, more people will be able to achieve their goals, and this will become a successful experience, allowing them to live more fulfilling lives. For example, the user decides on the content of their goals in consultation with the AI. For example, when setting goals such as dieting or obtaining a qualification, the AI ​​provides appropriate advice. Next, the application presents methods for achieving the set goals. For example, in the case of dieting, it presents meal management and exercise plans. In the case of obtaining a qualification, it presents study schedules and selection of reference books. The user reports their progress on the application. For example, they report their daily meals, exercise records, and study progress. Based on the report, the system provides encouragement, advice, and adjustments to the timeframe to help users achieve their goals. For example, if progress is behind schedule, the AI ​​will send encouraging messages and provide advice to help users achieve their goals. It can also adjust the timeframe for achieving the goals as needed. Once a goal is achieved, the system analyzes what went well and what didn't, and provides feedback. For example, in the case of weight loss, it provides feedback on successful meal management methods and exercise plans. In the case of obtaining a qualification, it provides feedback on effective learning methods and reference books. Users are also awarded achievement points, which can be exchanged for electronic payment points. This provides users with an incentive to achieve their goals. By using this service, more people can achieve their goals, and this will become a positive experience, leading to more fulfilling lives. In this way, the goal achievement support system can consistently provide support to help users achieve the goals they set.

[0029] The goal achievement support system according to this embodiment comprises a goal setting unit, a progress reporting unit, an encouragement unit, and a feedback unit. The goal setting unit provides AI advice when the user sets a goal. For example, when the user sets a goal such as dieting or obtaining a qualification, the AI ​​can provide appropriate advice. The progress reporting unit allows the user to report their progress. For example, the user can report their daily meals, exercise records, and learning progress. The encouragement unit provides encouragement and advice based on the reported content. For example, if progress is behind schedule, the AI ​​can send an encouraging message or provide advice for achieving the goal. It can also change the goal achievement period as needed. The feedback unit analyzes the good and bad points after the goal has been achieved and provides feedback. For example, in the case of dieting, it can provide feedback on successful meal management methods and exercise plans. In the case of obtaining a qualification, it can provide feedback on effective learning methods and reference books. The feedback unit can also award achievement points, which can be exchanged for electronic payment points. This allows the user to obtain an incentive for achieving their goal. Thus, the goal achievement support system according to this embodiment can consistently provide support for the user to achieve the goals they have set.

[0030] The goal-setting unit allows AI to provide advice when users set goals. For example, when a user sets goals such as dieting or obtaining a qualification, the AI ​​can provide appropriate advice. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's past data and current situation to suggest the optimal goal setting. The AI ​​can also provide specific steps and plans for the user to achieve their goals. For example, in the case of dieting, the AI ​​can suggest meal management and exercise plans. In the case of obtaining a qualification, the AI ​​can suggest study schedules and selection of reference books. This makes goal setting easier by providing the user with appropriate advice. Some or all of the above processing in the goal-setting unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or without a generative AI. For example, the goal-setting unit can input user input data into a generative AI, which can then suggest the optimal goal setting.

[0031] The progress reporting unit allows users to report their progress. For example, users can report their daily meals, exercise records, and learning progress. For example, users can report their progress on the app. The progress reporting unit can automatically analyze the user's reports and understand their progress. For example, the progress reporting unit can analyze the user's reports using text analysis technology to understand their progress. The progress reporting unit can also visually display the user's reports as graphs and charts. For example, the progress reporting unit can display the user's progress as graphs and charts, providing it in a visually easy-to-understand format. This allows users to understand their progress toward achieving their goals by reporting their progress. Some or all of the above processing in the progress reporting unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or without a generative AI. For example, the progress reporting unit can input the user's reports into a generative AI, which can then analyze the progress.

[0032] The encouragement unit can provide encouragement or advice based on the report. For example, if progress is behind schedule, the encouragement unit can use AI to send encouraging messages or provide advice for achieving goals. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's progress and provide appropriate encouragement or advice. The encouragement unit can also change the goal achievement period as needed. For example, if progress is behind schedule, the AI ​​can suggest extending the goal achievement period. This helps maintain user motivation by providing encouragement and advice tailored to the report. Some or all of the above processing in the encouragement unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or without a generative AI. For example, the encouragement unit can input the user's progress into a generative AI, which can then provide appropriate encouragement or advice.

[0033] The encouragement unit can change the timeframe for achieving the goal. For example, if progress is behind schedule, the encouragement unit can suggest that the AI ​​extend the timeframe for achieving the goal. For instance, the AI ​​can analyze the user's progress and, if it determines that extending the timeframe is appropriate, suggest an extension to the user. The encouragement unit can also shorten the timeframe for achieving the goal if progress is on track. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's progress and, if it determines that shortening the timeframe is appropriate, suggest a shortening to the user. This allows for flexible adjustment of the timeframe for achieving the goal, enabling support tailored to the user's situation. Some or all of the above-described processes in the encouragement unit may be performed using, for example, a generating AI, or without using a generating AI. For example, the encouragement unit can input the user's progress into a generating AI, which can then suggest an appropriate change to the timeframe.

[0034] The feedback unit can analyze the good and bad points after the goal has been achieved and provide feedback. For example, in the case of dieting, the feedback unit can provide feedback on successful meal management methods and exercise plans. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's meal management methods and exercise plans and provide feedback on what was successful and what needs improvement. In the case of obtaining a qualification, the feedback unit can provide feedback on effective learning methods and reference books. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's learning methods and reference books and provide feedback on what was effective and what needs improvement. By providing feedback after the goal has been achieved, information that will be useful for setting and achieving the next goal can be provided. Some or all of the above processing in the feedback unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or not using a generative AI. For example, the feedback unit can input the user's goal achievement data into a generative AI, and the generative AI can provide appropriate feedback.

[0035] The feedback unit can award achievement points and exchange them for electronic payment points. For example, the feedback unit can award achievement points when a user achieves a goal. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's goal achievement status and calculate the achievement points. The feedback unit can also exchange achievement points for electronic payment points. For example, the AI ​​can automatically perform the procedure of exchanging the user's achievement points for electronic payment points. This increases the user's incentive by awarding achievement points and exchanging them for electronic payment points. Some or all of the above processing in the feedback unit may be performed using, for example, a generating AI, or without using a generating AI. For example, the feedback unit can input the user's achievement point data into a generating AI, which can then perform the appropriate point exchange procedure.

[0036] The goal-setting unit can analyze the user's past goal-setting history and propose the optimal goal-setting method. For example, the goal-setting unit can propose new goals based on the user's past successful goal-setting methods. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's past goal-setting history, extract successful goal-setting methods, and propose new goals based on them. It can also advise the user to avoid goal-setting methods that have failed in the past. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's past goal-setting history, identify failed goal-setting methods, and advise against them. Furthermore, it can analyze the user's past goal achievement rate and propose realistic goals. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's past goal achievement rate and propose realistic goals. In this way, by analyzing the past goal-setting history, the optimal goal-setting method can be proposed to the user. Some or all of the above processing in the goal-setting unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or without a generative AI. For example, the goal-setting unit can input the user's past goal-setting history data into a generative AI, which can then propose the optimal goal-setting method.

[0037] The goal-setting unit can customize goals based on the user's current lifestyle and areas of interest when setting goals. For example, if the user is busy, the goal-setting unit can suggest goals that can be achieved in a short period of time. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's lifestyle and suggest goals that can be achieved in a short period of time for a busy user. Also, if the user is interested in health, the goal-setting unit can suggest health-related goals. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's areas of interest and suggest health-related goals for a user who is interested in health. Furthermore, if the user wants to learn a new skill, the goal-setting unit can suggest goals related to that skill. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's areas of interest and suggest goals related to a new skill for a user who is interested in that skill. This increases the likelihood of achieving goals by setting goals that are tailored to the user's lifestyle and areas of interest. Some or all of the above-described processes in the goal-setting unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or not using a generative AI. For example, the goal-setting unit can input data on the user's lifestyle and areas of interest into a generative AI, which can then suggest appropriate goals.

[0038] The goal-setting unit can suggest highly relevant goals when setting goals, taking into account the user's geographical location information. For example, if the user lives in an urban area, the goal-setting unit can suggest goals that are easily achievable in an urban area. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's geographical location information and suggest goals that are easily achievable in an urban area for a user living in an urban area. Also, if the user lives in a natural environment, the goal-setting unit can suggest goals related to outdoor activities. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's geographical location information and suggest goals related to outdoor activities for a user living in a natural environment. Furthermore, if the user frequently visits a particular region, the goal-setting unit can suggest goals that can be achieved in that region. For example, the AI ​​can analyze the user's geographical location information and suggest goals that can be achieved in a particular region for a user who frequently visits that region. In this way, by considering geographical location information, goals that are easily achievable for the user can be suggested. Some or all of the above processing in the goal-setting unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or without using a generative AI. For example, the goal-setting unit can input the user's geographical location information data into a generative AI, and the generative AI can suggest appropriate goals.

[0039] The goal-setting unit can analyze a user's social media activity and suggest relevant goals when setting goals. For example, if a user makes many posts about fitness, the goal-setting unit can suggest fitness-related goals.

[0092] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.

[0093] The goal achievement support system can also include a reward management unit. This unit manages rewards for users upon achieving their goals and provides them at the appropriate time. For example, if a user achieves a weight loss goal, the reward management unit can offer coupons for health-related products or services. Similarly, if a user achieves a certification goal, the unit can offer discounts on learning-related books or online courses. Furthermore, the reward management unit can provide customized rewards tailored to the user's preferences. For instance, if a user is interested in travel, travel-related perks can be offered. This provides users with an incentive to achieve their goals and makes it easier for them to maintain motivation.

[0094] The goal achievement support system can also include a community collaboration section. This section provides features that allow users to share information and encourage each other in order to achieve their goals. For example, a user with a weight loss goal can share information about diet and exercise with other users who also have weight loss goals, and encourage each other. Similarly, a user with a qualification acquisition goal can share their learning progress and information about study materials, and offer each other advice. Furthermore, the community collaboration section allows users to create groups focused on achieving their goals and engage in collaborative activities. This helps users maintain motivation towards achieving their goals without feeling isolated.

[0095] The goal achievement support system can also include a health management section. This section monitors the user's health status and provides health management advice to help them achieve their goals. For example, for a user with a weight loss goal, it can record daily meals and exercise levels to monitor their health. It can also provide advice to users with qualification acquisition goals on stress management and improving sleep quality. Furthermore, the health management section can analyze the user's health data and provide individually customized health management plans. This allows users to achieve their goals while maintaining their health.

[0096] The goal achievement support system can also include a reminder function. This function provides reminders to help users avoid forgetting important tasks and events related to achieving their goals. For example, it can remind users with weight loss goals about meal times and exercise times. It can also remind users with certification goals about study schedules and exam dates. Furthermore, the reminder function can adjust the timing of reminders to match the user's schedule. This allows users to efficiently manage tasks related to achieving their goals.

[0097] The goal achievement support system can also include a data visualization unit. This unit provides a function to visually display the user's progress toward achieving their goals.

The emotion sharing section also provides a function that allows users to record their emotions and review them later. This allows users to share their emotions with others and maintain their motivation towards achieving their goals.

[0101] The goal achievement support system can also be equipped with an emotion tracking unit. This unit can continuously track the user's emotions and provide support tailored to changes in those emotions. For example, while a user is working towards achieving a goal, the emotion tracking unit can periodically record the user's emotions and analyze changes in those emotions. Furthermore, based on the user's emotional data, the emotion tracking unit can provide advice and encouraging messages tailored to those emotional changes. This allows the user to understand their own emotional changes and receive appropriate support towards achieving their goals.

[0102] The goal achievement support system can also be equipped with an emotion prediction unit. This unit can predict future emotions based on the user's past emotional data and provide support tailored to those predicted emotions. For example, if the user has experienced periods of high stress in the past, the emotion prediction unit can provide stress reduction advice appropriate to those periods. Similarly, if the user has experienced periods of low motivation in the past, the emotion prediction unit can provide support to improve motivation appropriate to those periods. This allows the user to receive appropriate support in preparation for future emotional changes, enabling them to maintain motivation toward achieving their goals.

[0103] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 2.

[0104] Step 1: The goal-setting section provides AI-powered advice to users as they set their goals. For example, when a user sets goals such as dieting or obtaining a qualification, the AI ​​provides appropriate advice. Step 2: The progress reporting section allows users to report their progress. For example, users can report their daily meals, exercise records, and learning progress. Step 3: The encouragement team provides encouragement and advice based on the report. For example, if progress is behind schedule, the AI ​​will send an encouraging message or provide advice to help achieve the goal. It can also change the timeframe for achieving the goal as needed. Step 4: The feedback department analyzes what went well and what didn't after the goal was achieved and provides feedback. For example, in the case of dieting, they can provide feedback on successful meal management methods and exercise plans. In the case of obtaining a qualification, they can provide feedback on effective study methods and reference books. The feedback department also awards achievement points, which can be exchanged for electronic payment points.

[0141] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.

[0142] As shown in Figure 7, the data processing system 410 includes a data processing device 12 and a robot 414. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0143] The data processing device 12 comprises a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication interface 26. The computer 22 comprises a processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32.

[0148] The controlled object 443 includes a display device, LEDs in the eyes, and motors that drive the arms, hands, and feet. The posture and gestures of the robot 414 are controlled by controlling the motors of the arms, hands, and feet. Some of the robot 414's emotions can be expressed by controlling these motors. The robot 414's facial expressions can also be expressed by controlling the illumination state of the LEDs in its eyes.

[0149] Figure 8 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the robot 414. As shown in Figure 8, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing using the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.

[0150] The processor 28 reads a specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 acting as a specific processing unit 290 according to the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

The emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59 performs various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotions, including but not limited to these examples. Furthermore, emotion estimation and prediction also include, for example, emotion analysis.

[0152] In robot 414, specific processing is performed by processor 46. A specific program 60 is stored in storage 50. Processor 46 reads the specific program 60 from storage 50 and executes it on RAM 48. The specific processing is achieved by processor 46 acting as a control unit 46A according to the specific program 60 executed on RAM 48. Robot 414 also has data generation model 58 and emotion identification model 59, similar to those of the robot, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.

[0153] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 obtains processing results (such as prediction results) using the data generation model 58 by communicating with the server device that has the data generation model 58. Also, the data processing device 12 may be a server device or a terminal device owned by the user (for example, a mobile phone, robot, home appliance, etc.).

[0154] 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 controlled object 443 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating user input for the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits the audio data indicating user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[0155] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI. An example of a data generation model 58 is a generative AI such as ChatGPT. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 is input with prompts containing instructions, and inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images (e.g., still image data or video data).

[0156] The data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. The processing by the data processing system 410 is performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the robot 414, but it may also be performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the robot 414. In addition, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the robot 414 or an external device, and the robot 414 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device.

[0157] The correspondence between each part and the device or control unit is not limited to the examples described above, and various modifications are possible.

[0158] Furthermore, the emotion identification model 59, acting 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 a specific mapping, which is an emotion map (see Figure 9). Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may also determine the robot's emotion, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the robot's emotion.

[0159] Figure 9 shows the emotion map 400, in which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. The closer to the center of the concentric circles, the more primitive the emotions are located. Further out of the concentric circles, emotions representing states and actions arising from mental states are located. Emotion is a concept that includes feelings and mental states. On the left side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are located. On the right side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally induced by situational judgment are located. Above and below the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are located. In addition, the emotion of "pleasure" is located on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "displeasure" is located on the lower side. Thus, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure in which emotions arise, and emotions that are likely to occur simultaneously are mapped close together.

[0160] These emotions are distributed at the 3 o'clock position on the Emotion Map 400, and usually fluctuate between feelings of security and anxiety. In the right half of the Emotion Map 400, situational awareness takes precedence over internal feelings, resulting in a calm impression.

[0161] The inside of the Emotion Map 400 represents inner thoughts, while the outside represents actions. Therefore, the further you go from the outside of the Emotion Map 400, the more visible (expressed in actions) your emotions become.

[0162] Here, human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. Similarly, in robots, cars, and motorcycles, emotions can be created based on various balances, such as posture and battery level. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. The emotion map can be generated based, for example, on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on a system for analyzing brain physiological signals of speech emotion recognition and emotion, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "response," where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "situation," where situational awareness is dominant.

[0163] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. One is the emotion around the middle of the negative "repentance" and "reflection" on the situation side. In other words, it is 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 the emotion around the positive "desire" on the reaction side. In other words, it is when the robot has 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 ​​representing each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the user's emotion. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple training data sets, which are combinations of user input and emotion values ​​representing each emotion shown in the emotion map 400. Furthermore, this neural network is trained so that emotions located close together have similar values, as shown in the emotion map 900 in Figure 10. Figure 10 shows an example where multiple emotions such as "reassured," "calm," and "confident" have similar emotion values.

[0165] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which a specific process is performed by a single computer 22. However, the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and a distributed processing method for the specific process may be used, which includes computer 22 and multiple other computers.

[0166] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32, but the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a portable, computer-readable, non-temporary storage medium such as a USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory. The specific processing program 56 stored in the non-temporary storage medium is installed in the computer 22 of the data processing device 12. The processor 28 executes specific processing according to 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] Furthermore, it is not necessary to store the entirety 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 the entirety of the specific processing program 56 in the storage 32; it is acceptable to store only a portion of the specific processing program 56.

[0169] The following types of processors can be used as hardware resources to perform specific processing. Examples of processors include a CPU, a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource to perform specific processing by executing software, i.e., a program. Other examples of processors include dedicated electrical circuits, such as FPGAs (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays), PLDs (Programmable Logic Devices), or ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits), which have circuit configurations specifically designed to perform specific processing. All of these processors have built-in or connected memory, and all of them perform specific processing by using memory.

[0170] The hardware resource that performs a specific process may consist of one of these various processors, or it may consist of 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). Alternatively, the hardware resource that performs a specific process may consist of a single processor.

[0171] Examples of configurations using a single processor include, firstly, a configuration in which one or more CPUs and software are combined to form a single processor, and this processor functions as a hardware resource that performs a specific process. Secondly, there is a configuration using a processor that realizes the functions of the entire system, including multiple hardware resources that perform a specific process, on a single IC chip, as exemplified by SoCs (System-on-a-chip). In this way, a specific process is realized using one or more of the above types of processors as hardware resources.

[0172] Furthermore, the hardware structure of these various processors can more specifically utilize electrical circuits that combine circuit elements such as semiconductor devices. Also, the specific processing described above is merely an example. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary steps can be deleted, new steps added, or the processing order rearranged, as long as it does not deviate from the main purpose.

[0173] Furthermore, although the above-described examples were divided into four embodiments, some or all of these embodiments may be combined. Also, the smart device 14, smart glasses 214, headset terminal 314, and robot 414 are just examples, and they may be combined, or other devices may be used. Also, although the above-described examples were divided into two embodiments, Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, these may be combined.

[0174] The descriptions and illustrations presented above are detailed explanations of the technical aspects of this disclosure and are merely examples of the technical aspects. For example, the above descriptions of the structure, function, operation, and effect are examples of the structure, function, operation, and effect of the technical aspects of this disclosure. Therefore, it goes without saying that you may delete unnecessary parts, add new elements, or replace elements in the descriptions and illustrations presented above, as long as you do not deviate from the essence of the technical aspects of this disclosure. Furthermore, in order to avoid confusion and facilitate understanding of the technical aspects of this disclosure, explanations of common technical knowledge and other things that do not require special explanation to enable the implementation of the technical aspects of this disclosure have been omitted from the descriptions and illustrations presented above.
