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 weekend planning support system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system designed to reduce the burden on working parents when planning how to spend weekends with their children and to pique children's interest. The weekend planning support system allows the user to select their personal preferences, such as their mood or what they want to do at the time, and the generating AI proposes several plan options based on the selected preferences. These include information necessary for going out to play, such as itineraries, reservations, and directions. Furthermore, the system utilizes the generating AI's video generation technology to create a preview video based on the proposed plan. This video is designed to pique children's interest and facilitate preparation. For example, if the user selects the preference to "go to the zoo," the generating AI gathers information on nearby zoos and proposes the optimal visit plan. This plan includes information such as the zoo's opening hours, admission fees, and access methods. Furthermore, the system utilizes the generating AI's video generation technology to create a preview video based on the proposed plan. For example, if a zoo visit plan is proposed, the generating AI generates a video introducing the zoo's highlights and access methods. This video is designed to allow children to visually understand where they are being taken. This system reduces the burden on working parents when planning weekend activities with their children. Users only need to select a plan suggested by the AI ​​generator, without having to gather complex information or create a plan themselves. In addition, the generated preview video can pique children's interest and make preparations go smoothly. For example, if a child watches the video and gets excited and says, "I want to go to the zoo!", preparations will proceed smoothly. This system can automatically generate plans that are tailored to the child's mood and the circumstances of each individual family. This solves the problem of creating similar plans every time and provides fresh plans. Furthermore, a promotional video based on the generated plan is also created, which stimulates children's intellectual curiosity and makes preparing for outings with children more efficient. In this way, the weekend planning support system reduces the burden on working parents when planning weekend activities with their children and can pique children's interest.

[0029] The weekend planning support system according to this embodiment comprises a reception unit, a proposal unit, and a generation unit. The reception unit selects the user's intentions. User intentions include, but are not limited to, the purpose of travel, budget, and preferences. For example, the reception unit can select the user's intention to "go to the zoo." The reception unit can also select the user's intention to "have a picnic in the park." Furthermore, the reception unit can also select the user's intention to "visit a museum." The proposal unit proposes a plan based on the intentions selected by the reception unit. The proposal unit generates a plan that matches the user's intentions, for example, using a generation AI. The generation AI can generate a plan based on various information sources. For example, the proposal unit can collect information from the internet and propose a plan that matches the user's intentions. The proposal unit can also propose a plan based on information from books and guidebooks. Furthermore, the proposal unit can also propose a plan based on the user's past data. The generation unit generates a preview video based on the plan proposed by the proposal unit. The generation unit, for example, uses a generation AI to create a preview video based on the proposed plan. The generation AI can generate a preview video based on the plan using video generation technology. For example, if a zoo visit plan is proposed, the generation unit will generate a video introducing the zoo's highlights and how to get there. The generation unit can also generate a video introducing the park's scenery and the picnic if a park picnic plan is proposed. Furthermore, if a museum visit plan is proposed, the generation unit can generate a video introducing the museum's exhibits and how to get there. As a result, the weekend planning support system according to this embodiment can propose a plan based on the user's intentions and generate a preview video, thereby stimulating children's interest and allowing preparation work to proceed smoothly.

[0030] The reception desk selects the user's preferences. These preferences include, but are not limited to, the purpose of travel, budget, and preferences. For example, the reception desk can select the user's preference to "go to the zoo." It can also select the user's preference to "have a picnic in the park." Furthermore, it can select the user's preference to "visit a museum." The reception desk provides an intuitive interface to allow users to easily input their preferences. For example, users can use a smartphone or tablet to select their preferences using touch or voice input. In addition, the reception desk learns the user's past selection history and preferences and collects data to make personalized suggestions. For example, a user who has visited a zoo in the past can be suggested new zoos or special events. The reception desk can also ask detailed questions when users select their preferences to collect more specific information. For example, a user who selects "go to the zoo" can be asked questions such as "which region's zoo would you like to visit?" or "are there any specific animals you would like to see?" to understand their preferences more specifically. This allows the reception department to accurately understand the user's intentions and provide appropriate information to the proposal and generation departments.

[0031] The proposal department proposes a plan based on the user's preferences selected by the reception department. The proposal department generates a plan that matches the user's preferences, for example, using generative AI. Generative AI can generate plans based on various information sources. For example, the proposal department collects information from the internet and proposes a plan that matches the user's preferences. The proposal department can also propose plans based on information from books and guidebooks. Furthermore, the proposal department can propose plans based on the user's past data. Generative AI uses natural language processing technology to analyze the user's preferences and generate the optimal plan. For example, if the user selects the preference "I want to go to the zoo," the generative AI collects information such as the zoo's opening hours, admission fees, access methods, and highlights, and proposes the optimal visit plan. The generative AI can also suggest information on restaurants and cafes according to the user's budget and preferences. Furthermore, the proposal department can make personalized suggestions based on the user's past behavior history and evaluations. For example, if the user had a high evaluation of a zoo when they visited it in the past, the proposal department can suggest other zoos where a similar experience can be had. This allows the proposal department to suggest the optimal plan based on the user's intentions, thereby improving user satisfaction.

[0032] The generation unit generates a preview video based on the plan proposed by the proposal unit. The generation unit, for example, uses a generation AI to create a preview video based on the proposed plan. The generation AI can generate a preview video based on the plan using video generation technology. For example, if a zoo visit plan is proposed, the generation unit will generate a video introducing the zoo's highlights and how to get there. Also, if a park picnic plan is proposed, the generation unit can generate a video introducing the park scenery and the picnic. Furthermore, if a museum visit plan is proposed, the generation unit can generate a video introducing the museum's exhibits and how to get there. The generation AI uses image recognition technology and speech synthesis technology to generate realistic images and sounds, providing users with an immersive preview video. For example, in a zoo visit plan, it can realistically reproduce images and sounds of animals to convey the appeal of the zoo to the user. Also, in a park picnic plan, it can realistically reproduce the park scenery and the picnic to convey the enjoyment of the picnic to the user. Furthermore, the museum visit plan can realistically recreate videos and explanations of the exhibits, conveying the museum's appeal to the user. This allows the generation unit to provide users with immersive preview videos, increasing their anticipation for the plan.

[0033] The proposal unit can generate plan proposals based on various information sources. For example, the proposal unit can collect information from the internet and propose a plan proposal that suits the user's preferences. For example, the proposal unit can collect information from travel sites and tourism information sites and generate the optimal plan proposal based on the user's preferences. The proposal unit can also propose plan proposals based on information from books and guidebooks. For example, the proposal unit can collect information from travel guidebooks and tourism magazines and generate a plan proposal that suits the user's preferences. Furthermore, the proposal unit can also propose plan proposals based on the user's past data. For example, the proposal unit can analyze the user's past travel history and selected activity data and generate a plan proposal that suits the user's preferences. In this way, by generating plan proposals based on various information sources, a wider variety of options can be provided. Some or all of the above processing in the proposal unit may be performed using, for example, a generation AI, or without a generation AI. For example, the proposal unit can input information from the internet into a generation AI, and the generation AI can generate a plan proposal.

[0034] The generation unit can generate a preview video to pique children's interest based on the proposed plan. The generation unit can, for example, use a generation AI to create a preview video based on the proposed plan. The generation AI can generate a preview video based on the plan using video generation technology. For example, if a zoo visit plan is proposed, the generation unit can generate a video introducing the zoo's highlights and how to get there. The generation unit can also generate a video introducing the park's scenery and the picnic if a park picnic plan is proposed. Furthermore, if a museum visit plan is proposed, the generation unit can generate a video introducing the museum's exhibits and how to get there. By generating a preview video to pique children's interest, the preparation process for the children can proceed smoothly. Some or all of the above processing in the generation unit may be performed using, for example, a generation AI, or without using a generation AI. For example, the generation unit can input the proposed plan into the generation AI, and the generation AI can generate a preview video.

[0035] The proposal unit can propose a plan that includes information such as itinerary, reservations, and directions. For example, the proposal unit uses generative AI to generate a plan that includes information such as itinerary, reservations, and directions based on the user's preferences. Generative AI can generate a plan that matches the user's preferences based on various information sources.

[0055] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 1.

[0056] Step 1: The reception desk selects the user's preferences. These preferences include, for example, the purpose of the trip, budget, and preferences. Specifically, the user can select preferences such as "I want to go to the zoo," "I want to have a picnic in the park," or "I want to visit a museum." Step 2: The proposal department proposes a plan based on the preferences selected by the reception department. The proposal department uses generative AI to generate a plan that matches the user's preferences. For example, it proposes a plan based on information from the internet, information from books and guidebooks, and the user's past data. Step 3: The generation unit generates a preview video based on the plan proposed by the proposal unit. The generation unit uses generation AI to create a preview video based on the plan.

If a park picnic plan is proposed, it will generate a video introducing the park's scenery and the picnic. Furthermore, if a museum visit plan is proposed, it will generate a video introducing the museum's exhibits and how to get there.

[0057] (Example of form 2) The weekend planning support system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system designed to reduce the burden on working parents when planning how to spend weekends with their children and to pique children's interest. The weekend planning support system allows the user to select their personal preferences, such as their mood or what they want to do at the time, and the generating AI proposes several plan options based on the selected preferences. These include information necessary for going out to play, such as itineraries, reservations, and directions. Furthermore, the system utilizes the generating AI's video generation technology to create a preview video based on the proposed plan. This video is designed to pique children's interest and facilitate preparation. For example, if the user selects the preference to "go to the zoo," the generating AI gathers information on nearby zoos and proposes the optimal visit plan. This plan includes information such as the zoo's opening hours, admission fees, and access methods. Furthermore, the system utilizes the generating AI's video generation technology to create a preview video based on the proposed plan. For example, if a zoo visit plan is proposed, the generating AI generates a video introducing the zoo's highlights and access methods. This video is designed to allow children to visually understand where they are being taken. This system reduces the burden on working parents when planning weekend activities with their children. Users only need to select a plan suggested by the AI ​​generator, without having to gather complex information or create a plan themselves. In addition, the generated preview video can pique children's interest and make preparations go smoothly. For example, if a child watches the video and gets excited and says, "I want to go to the zoo!", preparations will proceed smoothly. This system can automatically generate plans that are tailored to the child's mood and the circumstances of each individual family. This solves the problem of creating similar plans every time and provides fresh plans. Furthermore, a promotional video based on the generated plan is also created, which stimulates children's intellectual curiosity and makes preparing for outings with children more efficient. In this way, the weekend planning support system reduces the burden on working parents when planning weekend activities with their children and can pique children's interest.

[0058] The weekend planning support system according to this embodiment comprises a reception unit, a proposal unit, and a generation unit. The reception unit selects the user's intentions. User intentions include, but are not limited to, the purpose of travel, budget, and preferences. For example, the reception unit can select the user's intention to "go to the zoo." The reception unit can also select the user's intention to "have a picnic in the park." Furthermore, the reception unit can also select the user's intention to "visit a museum."

[0132] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the reception unit, proposal unit, and generation unit, is implemented in at least one of the headset terminal 314 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the reception unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314 and selects the user's intentions. The proposal unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and proposes a plan using a generation AI. The generation unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and generates a preview video based on the proposed plan. The generation unit may also be implemented by the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be modified in various ways.

[0133] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.

[0134] 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.

[0135] 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. The processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. The database 24 and the communication interface 26 are also connected to the bus 34. The communication interface 26 is connected to a network 54. An example of the network 54 is a WAN and / or LAN.

[0136] The robot 414 includes a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, a communication interface 44, and a controlled object 443. The computer 36 includes a processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50. The processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The microphone 238, speaker 240, camera 42, and controlled object 443 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0137] The microphone 238 receives voice signals from the user and accepts instructions from the user. The microphone 238 captures the voice signals from the user, converts the captured voice into audio data, and outputs it to the processor 46. The speaker 240 outputs audio according to the instructions from the processor 46.

[0138] Camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system including a lens, aperture, and shutter, and an image sensor such as a CMOS image sensor or CCD image sensor, which captures images of the area around the user (for example, an imaging range defined by a field of view equivalent to the field of vision of a typical healthy person).

[0139] Communication interface 44 is connected to network 54. Communication interfaces 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 via network 54. The exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 using communication interfaces 44 and 26 is performed in a secure manner.

[0140] 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.

[0141] 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.

[0142] 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.

[0143] 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.

[0144] 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.

[0145] 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.).

[0146] 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.

[0147] 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). The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference result in one or more data formats such as audio data, text data, and image data. The data generation model 58 includes, for example, text generation AI, image generation AI, and multimodal generation AI. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization. The specific processing unit 290 performs the specific processing described above using the data generation model 58. The data generation model 58 may be a fine-tuned model that outputs inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions, in which case the data generation model 58 can output inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions. In the data processing device 12, etc., there are multiple types of data generation models 58, and the data generation model 58 includes AI other than generative AI. AI other than generative AI includes, for example, linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines (SVM), k-means clustering, convolutional neural networks (CNN), recurrent neural networks (RNN), generative adversarial networks (GAN), or naive Bayes, and can perform various processes, but is not limited to these examples. Also, the AI ​​may be an AI agent. Furthermore, when the processing of each part described above is performed by the AI, the processing may be performed by the AI ​​in part or in whole, but is not limited to this example. Also, processing performed by an AI including a generative AI may be replaced by rule-based processing, and rule-based processing may be replaced by processing performed by an AI including a generative AI.

[0148] 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.

[0149] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the reception unit, proposal unit, and generation unit, is implemented by, for example, at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the reception unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and selects the user's intentions. The proposal unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and proposes a plan using a generation AI. The generation unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and generates a preview video based on the proposed plan. The generation unit may also be implemented by, for example, the control unit 46A of the robot 414. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be modified in various ways.

[0150] 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.

[0151] 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.

[0152] 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.

[0153] 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.

[0154] 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.

[0155] 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."

[0156] 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.

[0157] 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.

[0158] 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.

[0159] 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.

[0160] 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.

[0161] 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.

[0162] 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.

[0163] 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.

[0164] 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.

[0165] 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.

[0166] 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.
