Also, in this specification, when expressing three or more matters connected by "and / or", the same concept as "A and / or B" is applied.

[0016] [First Embodiment] FIG. 1 shows an example of the configuration of a data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment.

[0017] As shown in FIG. 1, the data processing system 10 includes a data processing device 12 and a smart device 14. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0018] The data processing device 12 includes a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication I / F 26. The computer 22 includes a processor 28, a RAM 30, and a storage 32. The processor 28, the RAM 30, and the storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. Also, the database 24 and the communication I / F 26 are connected to the bus 34.

[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.

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 network configuration diagram creation system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that automatically creates the latest network configuration diagrams for existing customers using a generation AI. This system can create a network configuration diagram by loading a list of existing lines into the generation AI. Specifically, first, the list of existing lines is loaded into the generation AI. The generation AI analyzes the input list of lines and understands the connection status and usage status of each line. Next, the generation AI automatically creates a network configuration diagram based on the analysis results. The generated configuration diagram visually shows the connection status and usage status of each line and is provided in a format that can be easily understood by SEs and sales personnel. Furthermore, the generated configuration diagram can be used as a document to be shared during handover. This allows SEs and sales personnel receiving the handover to quickly understand the customer's usage status. This tool reduces the workload for SEs and sales personnel. Since the creation of network configuration diagrams, which was previously done manually, is automated, the work time is significantly reduced. In addition, the generated configuration diagram can always reflect the latest network configuration. For example, even if a new line is added or an existing line is changed, the generation AI automatically updates the configuration diagram, so the latest information can always be provided. Thus, a network diagram creation system utilizing generation AI is an effective means of reducing the workload of SEs and sales staff and quickly understanding customer usage patterns. As a result, the network diagram creation system significantly reduces the workload of SEs and sales staff and allows for rapid understanding of customer usage patterns.

[0029] The network configuration diagram creation system according to this embodiment comprises a reception unit, an analysis unit, a generation unit, and a provision unit. The reception unit receives a list of existing lines. The reception unit can receive data in formats such as CSV or JSON as input. The analysis unit analyzes the list of lines received by the reception unit and understands the connection status and usage status of each line. The analysis unit performs the analysis based on, for example, methods for checking connection status and evaluation criteria for usage status. The generation unit automatically creates a network configuration diagram based on the results analyzed by the analysis unit. The generation unit creates the network configuration diagram using, for example, a generation AI. The generation AI can use technologies such as deep learning or rule-based generation. The provision unit provides the network configuration diagram generated by the generation unit. The provision unit can output the generated network configuration diagram in PDF format, for example. The provision unit can also share the generated network configuration diagram on the cloud. As a result, the network configuration diagram creation system can reduce the workload of SEs and sales personnel by automatically creating and providing network configuration diagrams based on a list of existing lines.

[0030] The reception unit accepts a list of existing lines. The reception unit can accept data in formats such as CSV or JSON as input. Specifically, users log into the system and upload a file containing the list of existing lines through a dedicated interface. The reception unit automatically recognizes the format of the uploaded file and checks the data's integrity. For example, in the case of a CSV file, it checks the header information of each column and verifies that all necessary fields are present. In the case of a JSON file, it validates whether the data structure is correct. This allows the reception unit to handle everything from data reception to initial verification, enabling the subsequent analysis unit to begin processing smoothly. The reception unit can also assign a timestamp upon data reception, enabling version control of the data. This makes it easy to identify changes by comparing with past data. Furthermore, the reception unit displays a confirmation message to the user, notifying them that the data has been successfully received. This allows users to provide data with confidence.

[0031] The analysis unit analyzes the list of lines received by the reception unit to understand the connection status and usage status of each line. The analysis unit performs analysis based on, for example, methods for checking connection status and evaluation criteria for usage status. Specifically, it analyzes technical parameters such as the destination IP address, port number, bandwidth, and latency of each line to evaluate the performance and stability of each line. The analysis unit uses AI to quickly analyze large amounts of data and detect abnormal patterns and trends. For example, it applies anomaly detection algorithms using deep learning to detect unusual connection and usage statuses at an early stage. In addition, the analysis unit can evaluate the current situation by comparing it with past data and understand trends in line deterioration and improvement. This allows the analysis unit to not only understand the situation in real time but also perform long-term trend analysis and predictions. Furthermore, the analysis unit provides a dashboard to visually display the analysis results, allowing users to intuitively understand the situation. In this way, the analysis unit consistently handles everything from data analysis to result provision, supporting user decision-making.

[0032] The generation unit automatically creates a network diagram based on the results analyzed by the analysis unit. The generation unit creates the network diagram using, for example, a generation AI. The generation AI can utilize technologies such as deep learning and rule-based generation. Specifically, the generation AI receives connection and usage data provided by the analysis unit as input and generates a network diagram. When using deep learning, it learns from past network diagram datasets and has the ability to generate new diagrams. In the case of rule-based generation, it creates diagrams based on predefined rules or templates. The generation unit appropriately arranges shapes, colors, labels, etc., to provide the generated network diagram in a format that is easy for the user to understand. For example, important connection points and lines can be highlighted with thick lines or different colors, and detailed information for each line can be displayed in a pop-up window. This allows the generation unit to automatically create accurate and visually easy-to-understand network diagrams based on the analysis results, aiding user comprehension. Furthermore, the generation unit has the ability to update the generated diagram in real time, allowing it to respond to network changes and the addition of new data. This allows the generation unit to always provide a configuration diagram that reflects the latest network conditions, improving the user's work efficiency.

[0033] The service provider provides the network configuration diagrams generated by the generation service provider. For example, the service provider can output the generated network configuration diagrams in PDF format. The service provider can also share the generated network configuration diagrams on the cloud. Specifically, the service provider exports the generated configuration diagrams in PDF format, making them available for users to download. Furthermore, by integrating with cloud storage services, the generated configuration diagrams can be saved on the cloud and shared with stakeholders. This allows users to access the latest network configuration diagrams anytime, anywhere. The service provider also has the function to send the generated configuration diagrams to stakeholders via email or messaging apps. This enables the rapid sharing of important information and facilitates smooth communication among stakeholders. In addition, the service provider has the function to collect feedback on the generated configuration diagrams and incorporate it into future generation. For example, it provides an interface that allows users to add comments to the configuration diagrams or request revisions. This enables the service provider to respond flexibly to user needs and improve the overall quality of the system.

[0054] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.

[0055] The reception desk can analyze a user's past network diagram usage history and suggest the most suitable diagram format. For example, if a user frequently used PDF diagrams in the past, the reception desk will prioritize suggesting PDF. If a user previously preferred cloud-based sharing, the reception desk can also suggest cloud sharing. Furthermore, if a user used diagrams during specific time periods, the reception desk can provide suggestions tailored to those times. This improves user convenience by providing optimal suggestions based on the user's past usage history.

[0056] The analysis unit can adjust the level of detail in the network configuration diagram based on the user's job responsibilities. For example, if the user belongs to the IT department, the analysis will include detailed technical information. If the user belongs to the sales department, a simplified analysis can be performed. Furthermore, if the user is in a management position, a more concise analysis can be performed. By adjusting the level of detail in the analysis according to the user's job responsibilities, the analysis results can be provided in a way that is easy for the user to understand.

[0057] The service provider can integrate the generated network diagrams with the user's calendar app. For example, the generated diagrams can be automatically added to a specific date in the calendar. Furthermore, notifications can be sent to the calendar when the diagrams are updated. Additionally, detailed information can be displayed when the user clicks on a diagram in the calendar. This simplifies the management of network diagrams and improves user convenience.

[0058] The service provider can customize the generated network configuration diagram according to the user's preferences.

Furthermore, if a user says, "Save the configuration diagram," the diagram will be saved. This enables operation via voice commands, improving user convenience.

[0060] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 1.

[0061] Step 1: The reception desk receives a list of existing lines. The reception desk can accept data in formats such as CSV or JSON as input. Step 2: The analysis unit analyzes the list of lines received by the reception unit to understand the connection status and usage status of each line. The analysis unit performs the analysis based, for example, on methods for checking connection status and evaluation criteria for usage status. Step 3: The generation unit automatically creates a network diagram based on the results analyzed by the analysis unit. The generation unit creates the network diagram using, for example, a generation AI. The generation AI can use technologies such as deep learning or rule-based generation. Step 4: The provider unit provides the network configuration diagram generated by the generator unit. The provider unit can, for example, output the generated network configuration diagram in PDF format. The provider unit can also share the generated network configuration diagram on the cloud.

[0062] (Example of form 2) The network configuration diagram creation system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that automatically creates the latest network configuration diagrams for existing customers using a generation AI. This system can create a network configuration diagram by loading a list of existing lines into the generation AI. Specifically, first, the list of existing lines is loaded into the generation AI. The generation AI analyzes the input list of lines and understands the connection status and usage status of each line. Next, the generation AI automatically creates a network configuration diagram based on the analysis results. The generated configuration diagram visually shows the connection status and usage status of each line and is provided in a format that can be easily understood by SEs and sales personnel. Furthermore, the generated configuration diagram can be used as a document to be shared during handover. This allows SEs and sales personnel receiving the handover to quickly understand the customer's usage status. This tool reduces the workload for SEs and sales personnel. Since the creation of network configuration diagrams, which was previously done manually, is automated, the work time is significantly reduced. In addition, the generated configuration diagram can always reflect the latest network configuration. For example, even if a new line is added or an existing line is changed, the generation AI automatically updates the configuration diagram, so the latest information can always be provided. Thus, a network diagram creation system utilizing generation AI is an effective means of reducing the workload of SEs and sales staff and quickly understanding customer usage patterns. As a result, the network diagram creation system significantly reduces the workload of SEs and sales staff and allows for rapid understanding of customer usage patterns.

[0063] The network configuration diagram creation system according to this embodiment comprises a reception unit, an analysis unit, a generation unit, and a provision unit. The reception unit receives a list of existing lines. The reception unit can receive data in formats such as CSV or JSON as input. The analysis unit analyzes the list of lines received by the reception unit and understands the connection status and usage status of each line.

For example, in the case of a CSV file, it checks the header information of each column and verifies that all necessary fields are present. In the case of a JSON file, it validates whether the data structure is correct. This allows the reception unit to handle everything from data reception to initial verification, enabling the subsequent analysis unit to begin processing smoothly. The reception unit can also assign a timestamp upon data reception, enabling version control of the data. This makes it easy to identify changes by comparing with past data. Furthermore, the reception unit displays a confirmation message to the user, notifying them that the data has been successfully received. This allows users to provide data with confidence.

When using deep learning, it learns from past network diagram datasets and has the ability to generate new diagrams. In the case of rule-based generation, it creates diagrams based on predefined rules or templates. The generation unit appropriately arranges shapes, colors, and labels to provide the generated network diagram in a user-friendly format. For example, important connection points and lines can be highlighted with thick lines or different colors, and detailed information for each line can be displayed in a pop-up window. This allows the generation unit to automatically create accurate and visually easy-to-understand network diagrams based on the analysis results, aiding user comprehension. Furthermore, the generation unit has the ability to update the generated diagram in real time, responding to network changes and the addition of new data. This allows the generation unit to always provide a configuration diagram that reflects the latest network conditions, improving the user's work efficiency.

[0099] The service provider can integrate the generated network diagrams with the user's calendar app. For example, the generated diagrams can be automatically added to a specific date in the calendar. Furthermore, notifications can be sent to the calendar when the diagrams are updated. Additionally, detailed information can be displayed when the user clicks on a diagram in the calendar. This simplifies the management of network diagrams and improves user convenience.

[0100] The service provider can customize the generated network configuration diagram according to the user's preferences. For example, if a user prefers a specific color or font, the service provider can provide a configuration diagram that reflects those settings. Similarly, if a user prefers a specific layout, the service provider can provide a configuration diagram that reflects that layout. Furthermore, if a user wishes to highlight specific information, the service provider can highlight that information. This allows for customization according to the user's preferences, thereby improving user satisfaction.

[0101] The service provider can enable users to operate the generated network configuration diagram using voice commands. For example, if a user says, "Show the next page," the next page will be displayed. Also, if a user says, "Highlight a specific line," that line will be highlighted. Furthermore, if a user says, "Save the configuration diagram," the diagram will be saved. This enables operation via voice commands, improving user convenience.

[0102] The reception desk can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the line list reception method based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is stressed, the line list reception can be done with simple operations. If the user is relaxed, it can request more detailed input. Furthermore, if the user is in a hurry, the reception can be completed quickly. In this way, by adjusting the reception method according to the user's emotions, user stress can be reduced.

[0103] The analysis unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the display method of the analysis results based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is stressed, it can provide a simple and highly visible display method. If the user is relaxed, it can provide a display method that includes detailed information. Furthermore, if the user is in a hurry, it can provide a display method that gets straight to the point. In this way, by adjusting the display method according to the user's emotions, it is possible to provide analysis results that are easy for the user to understand.

[0104] The generation unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the layout of the generated network diagram based on those emotions. For example, if the user is stressed, it can provide a simple and highly visible layout. If the user is relaxed, it can provide a layout with more detailed information. Furthermore, if the user is in a hurry, it can provide a layout that gets straight to the point. By adjusting the layout according to the user's emotions, it is possible to provide a network diagram that is easy for the user to understand.

[0105] The service provider can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the update frequency of the diagrams provided based on those emotions. For example, if the user is stressed, the update frequency can be reduced and the system can wait until the user is relaxed. If the user is relaxed, the diagrams can be provided at the normal update frequency. Furthermore, if the user is in a hurry, the update frequency can be increased to provide the latest information quickly. In this way, by adjusting the update frequency according to the user's emotions, user stress can be reduced.

[0106] The system can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the display method of the provided diagram based on those emotions. For example, if the user is stressed, it can provide a simple and highly visible display method. If the user is relaxed, it can provide a display method that includes detailed information. Furthermore, if the user is in a hurry, it can provide a display method that focuses on the essentials. By adjusting the display method according to the user's emotions, the system can provide a highly visible display method for the user.

[0107] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 2.

[0108] Step 1: The reception desk receives a list of existing lines. The reception desk can accept data in formats such as CSV or JSON as input. Step 2: The analysis unit analyzes the list of lines received by the reception unit to understand the connection status and usage status of each line. The analysis unit performs the analysis based, for example, on methods for checking connection status and evaluation criteria for usage status. Step 3: The generation unit automatically creates a network diagram based on the results analyzed by the analysis unit. The generation unit creates the network diagram using, for example, a generation AI. The generation AI can use technologies such as deep learning or rule-based generation. Step 4: The provider unit provides the network configuration diagram generated by the generator unit. The provider unit can, for example, output the generated network configuration diagram in PDF format. The provider unit can also share the generated network configuration diagram on the cloud.

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.).

[0158] 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.

[0159] 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.

[0160] 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.

[0161] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the reception unit, analysis unit, generation unit, and provision unit, is implemented in, 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 receives a list of existing lines. The analysis unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and analyzes the list of lines received by the reception unit. The generation unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and automatically creates a network configuration diagram based on the analysis results. The provision unit is implemented by, for example, the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and provides the generated network configuration diagram. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be changed in various ways.

[0162] 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.

[0163] 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.

[0164] 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.

[0165] 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.

[0166] 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.

[0167] 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."

[0168] 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.

[0169] 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.

[0170] 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.

[0171] 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.

[0172] 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.

[0173] 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.

[0174] 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.

[0175] 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.

[0176] 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.

[0177] 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.

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.
