Furthermore, in this specification, the same concept as "A and / or B" applies when expressing three or more things linked by "and / or."

[0021] [First Embodiment]

[0022] Figure 1 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment.

[0023] As shown in Figure 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.

[0024] The data processing device 12 comprises a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication interface 26. The computer 22 is an example of a "computer" related to the technology of this disclosure. 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 (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).

[0025] The smart device 14 comprises a computer 36, a reception device 38, an output device 40, a camera 42, and a communication interface 44. The computer 36 comprises a processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50. The processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The reception device 38, output device 40, and camera 42 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0026] The reception device 38 is equipped with a touch panel 38A and a microphone 38B, etc., and receives user input. The touch panel 38A receives user input by detecting contact with an object (e.g., a pen or finger). The microphone 38B receives user input by detecting the user's voice. The control unit 46A transmits data indicating the user input received by the touch panel 38A and microphone 38B to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the data indicating the user input.

[0027] The output device 40 includes a display 40A and a speaker 40B, and presents data to the user 20 by outputting the data in a form perceptible to the user 20 (e.g., audio and / or text). The display 40A displays visible information such as text and images according to instructions from the processor 46. The speaker 40B outputs audio according to instructions from the processor 46. The camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system such as a lens, aperture, and shutter, and an image sensor such as a CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) image sensor or a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image sensor.

[0028] 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.

[0029] Figure 2 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart device 14.

[0030] 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.

[0031] The 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.

[0032] In the smart device 14, the processor 46 performs the reception output processing. The storage 50 stores the reception output program 60. The reception output program 60 is used in conjunction with a specific processing program 56 by the data processing system 10. The processor 46 reads the reception output program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read reception output program 60 on the RAM 48. The reception output processing is realized by the processor 46 operating as a control unit 46A according to the reception output program 60 executed on the RAM 48.

[0033] Next, the specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 will be described. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the smart device 14 as the "terminal".

[0034] This invention provides a system for centrally managing accounts required by a user for multiple information processing devices or services. This system has the function of integrating multiple accounts created for different information processing devices and generating a common account.

[0035] The user first downloads the application using their device and then enters the account information they want to integrate through the interface. For example, the user provides the application with account information (username and password) for service A and account information for service B.

[0036] The terminal securely stores user input and transfers it to the server. Security is ensured by using encrypted communication protocols during the transfer. Upon receiving this information, the server authenticates the account information used for each service.

[0037] If authentication is successful, the server merges these accounts and creates a single common account. This common account consolidates information and access permissions for each corresponding service. After this, the server sends the details of the generated common account back to the terminal and notifies the user. As a result, the user can easily log in to services A and B in the future by using the common account information.

[0038] Furthermore, if a user creates an account for a new service C, they can also register additional information. In this case, the device sends the new account information to the server again. The server performs new account authentication and integrates it into the common account, thereby improving the user experience.

[0039] Thus, the invention improves convenience by providing an environment in which users can easily access multiple information processing devices and services using a single common account. Specifically, by managing SNS accounts and email accounts with a single common account, users can eliminate the need to log in individually.

[0040] The following describes the processing flow.

[0041] Step 1:

[0042] The user launches the account integration application on their device and enters the account information (username and password) for service A and service B to be integrated.

[0043] Step 2:

[0044] The terminal encrypts the account information entered by the user and sends it to the server using a secure communication protocol.

[0045] Step 3:

[0046] The server decrypts the received account information and sends authentication requests to the systems of Service A and Service B, respectively.

[0047] Step 4:

[0048] Each service's system returns the authentication result to the server. The server confirms that the authentication was successful.

[0049] Step 5:

[0050] If authentication is successful, the server will merge account A and account B and create a new common account. This involves combining the information from both accounts and assigning a unique identifier to the common account.

[0051] Step 6:

[0052] The server sends the generated common account information back to the terminal, notifying it of the common account's ID and access permissions.

[0053] Step 7:

[0054] From now on, users will be able to seamlessly log in to services A and B using their shared account information. The terminal will automatically use the shared account information and perform the login process as needed.

[0055] Step 8:

[0056] When a user attempts to add account information for a new service C, the user enters the new account information into the terminal. The terminal sends this information to the server and begins the process of integrating it into the existing common account.

[0057] Step 9:

[0058] The server authenticates the account information for service C and integrates it into the common account. Once the integration process is complete, it sends the updated information to the terminal. Users can then manage the new service C using the common account.

[0059] (Example 1)

[0060] Next, we will describe Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the smart device 14 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0061] Managing separate identification information for each different information processing device and service is cumbersome for users, making it difficult to balance enhanced security with convenience. There is a need to solve this problem and provide an environment that centrally manages identification information, allowing for easy and secure access to multiple services.

[0062] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0063] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating multiple pieces of identification information, means for generating the integrated common identification information, means for performing authentication using the common identification information, means for transferring information using an encrypted communication method to ensure secure communication, and means for transmitting the common identification information to an information terminal to notify the user. This simplifies access to different information processing devices and services, and enables users to access multiple services securely and efficiently with a single common identification information.

[0064] An "information processing device" is a system that includes hardware and software for inputting, processing, storing, and outputting data.

[0065] "Identification information" refers to information such as usernames and passwords used when accessing information processing devices or services.

[0066] "Integrating" refers to the process of combining multiple pieces of identification information into a single, common format or structure.

[0067] A "common identification" is a single set of access credentials that are integrated across different information processing devices and services.

[0068] "Authentication" is the process of verifying whether the identification information provided by the user is legitimate.

[0069] An "encrypted communication method" is a communication technique that uses encryption technology to securely send and receive data.

[0070] An "information terminal" is a device, such as a computer, smartphone, or tablet, that a user operates to send and receive information.

[0071] This invention provides a system for providing an environment in which a user can centrally manage and easily and securely access identification information across multiple information processing devices or services. This system includes a dedicated application for terminals and multiple authentication and integration functions on the server side.

[0072] The user downloads and installs the application on their device. This application has the functionality to securely input, store, and transfer identification information from various information processing devices. The device encrypts the identification information entered by the user and sends it to the server using a secure communication protocol (e.g., HTTPS).

[0073] The server decrypts the encrypted identification information received from the terminal and performs authentication for each service and information processing device. After successful authentication, the server integrates this identification information to generate a common identification information. This common identification information is re-encrypted and sent to the terminal. The terminal notifies the user of this information, and the user can use this information to easily access each service and information processing device.

[0074] As a concrete example, users can input their identification information from different social networking services and email services into an application and integrate it. This allows users to access all services using a common identification information only once, improving efficiency.

[0075] An example of a prompt message would be: "We are considering a system where a user enters account information for services A and B that they want to integrate on their own device, and then sends this information to the server to generate a common account. Please list the features of this system and explain how it improves usability."

[0076] The flow of the specific processing in Example 1 will be explained using Figure 11.

[0077] Step 1:

[0078] The user downloads and installs a dedicated application on their device. After installation, they launch the application and perform the initial setup. This step requires the user's basic settings information (e.g., language settings) as input and provides a usable application environment as output.

[0079] Step 2:

[0080] The user uses the application to enter identification information (such as username and password) for multiple information processing services they wish to integrate. This identification information is required as input, and the terminal securely stores it. Specifically, the entered information is encrypted and temporarily stored in a local database.

[0081] Step 3:

[0082] The terminal sends the stored identification information to the server using an encrypted communication protocol. This step requires encrypted identification information as input and achieves secure data transmission to the server as output. Specifically, HTTPS communication is performed, and the data is sent over the network as data packets.

[0083] Step 4:

[0084] The server decrypts the received encrypted data and authenticates the user's identity for each service. The decrypted identity information is required as input, and the authentication result is obtained as output. Specifically, login attempts are made using the API of each service.

[0085] Step 5:

[0086] If authentication is successful, the server integrates the identification information and generates a common identification. This step requires authenticated identification as input and outputs the integrated common identification. In terms of specific data processing, each piece of information is combined and saved as a new record in the database.

[0087] Step 6:

[0088] The server re-encrypts the generated common identification information and sends it to the terminal. This step requires the integrated common identification information as input, and the terminal receives encrypted data as output. Specifically, the data is sent again using HTTPS.

[0089] Step 7:

[0090] The terminal decrypts encrypted data received from the server and notifies the user of a common identification information. Encrypted information is required as input, and the output is human-readable information displayed to the user. Specifically, after the decryption process, the result is displayed on the application's UI.

[0091] Step 8:

[0092] Users access information processing services using a common identification information. This common identification information is used as input, enabling authentication within the service. The output is an environment where users can log in to the service. For example, a user can access multiple services with a single entry.

[0093] (Application Example 1)

[0094] Next, we will explain Application Example 1. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the smart device 14 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0095] The challenge is to eliminate the hassle of users having to individually manage multiple accounts across different information processing systems and electronic trading platforms, and to provide an environment where they can be managed centrally and more easily.

[0096] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0097] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating a first user account and a second user account configured for different information processing systems, means for generating an integrated common user account, means for granting authorization to connect to the information processing system using the common user account, and means for integrating account information from different electronic transaction platforms and generating a centrally managed payment account. This allows users to access different services from a single common account and to easily make payments on multiple electronic transaction platforms.

[0098] An "information processing system" is a combination of hardware and software for collecting, processing, storing, and sharing data.

[0099] A "user account" is a profile that contains authentication information necessary to access information processing systems and services and to identify the user.

[0100] An "electronic trading platform" refers to a digital marketplace or payment system that enables online commercial transactions.

[0101] "Integrating" means combining multiple different elements or pieces of information and bringing them together into a single system or structure.

[0102] A "common user account" is an account that provides a unified authentication profile across multiple information processing systems and electronic trading platforms.

[0103] A "payment account" is an account that contains authentication information and settings for sending and receiving money on an electronic transaction platform.

[0104] "Approving" refers to the process of verifying the user's permissions and access based on the entered authentication information and granting access permission.

[0105] To implement this invention, the user must first download the application on their terminal and enter the user account information for each information processing system they wish to integrate. The terminal securely stores the data entered by the user and transmits it to the server using an encrypted communication protocol.

[0106] The server authenticates the received user account information against each information processing system and electronic trading platform, and integrates these accounts based on the successful authentication. This integration generates a common user account. This common user account is generated by the server and securely encrypted before being sent to the terminal. Users can then use this common user account to access different information processing systems and electronic trading platforms from a single, unified perspective.

[0107] As a concrete example, by having users enter their account information for social networking services, email services, and online marketplace payment systems into the application, these can be integrated into a single common user account, simplifying access and payment procedures.

[0108] By utilizing generative AI models, it is possible to analyze which services users use shared user accounts for and how they use them, and then make suggestions for optimizing those services.

[0109] An example of a specific prompt for a generative AI model is: "Please explain the convenience of this integrated payment account system. Please give an example of how it would be used in online shopping."

[0110] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 1 will be explained using Figure 12.

[0111] Step 1:

[0112] The user downloads an application to the device and enters account information for different information processing systems and electronic trading platforms. The device collects and securely stores the input data from the user. This input includes the username and password, which the device stores in its internal database.

[0113] Step 2:

[0114] The terminal encrypts the stored account information and sends it to the server. The terminal uses an encryption algorithm to transform the data and transfers it to the server over the network using a communication protocol (e.g., TLS / SSL). The output is the encrypted account information.

[0115] Step 3:

[0116] The server decrypts the received encrypted account information and authenticates it to each information processing system and electronic trading platform. The server obtains access rights to each platform API and verifies the legitimacy of the account information entered by the user. The input is encrypted information, and the output is the authentication status.

[0117] Step 4:

[0118] If authentication is successful, the server merges these accounts and creates a common user account. The server generates a new merged database entry based on the information of the different accounts. The input is the information of each account, and the output is the merged common account data.

[0119] Step 5:

[0120] The server encrypts the generated common user account and sends it to the terminal. The server uses the same encryption protocol to protect the data and returns it to the terminal over the network. The output is encrypted common account information.

[0121] Step 6:

[0122] The user's device receives shared user account information and notifies the user. The device decrypts the data and displays it through the user interface. The input is encrypted data, and the output is account information accessible to the user.

[0123] Step 7:

[0124] By using a common user account, users can access and operate different information processing systems and electronic transaction platforms from a single central location. This allows users to easily access multiple services with a single click and streamline payment processes.

[0125] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotions may be incorporated. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may use the emotion identification model 59 to estimate the user's emotions and perform identification processing using the user's emotions.

[0126] This invention provides a system that integrates an emotion engine to centrally manage accounts required by a user for different information processing devices or services. In addition to the function of integrating accounts created for different information processing devices and generating a common account, this system includes an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions and optimizes the system's operation based on that information.

[0127] The user operates the account integration application via their device and enters account information for multiple services they wish to integrate. For example, if the user provides account information for service X and service Y, the application receives and processes this information.

[0128] The terminal encrypts the user's input and sends it to the server using a secure protocol. After decrypting the account information, the server authenticates each service. Once authentication is complete, the accounts for service X and service Y are merged, and a new common account is created.

[0129] Meanwhile, the device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice, and an emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions. The emotion engine identifies the user's stress levels, joy, difficulty, etc., and adjusts the user interface based on this information. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the system can provide simpler operating procedures or guidance.

[0130] Based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, the server recommends the most appropriate account actions for the user's emotions. Furthermore, by referring to the user's action history in response to changes in emotions, it can prioritize suggesting actions that were preferred in similar emotional states in the past.

[0131] For example, if a user spends more time than necessary entering account information, the system will determine that the user is confused and, through its emotion engine, will highlight error messages and provide tutorials for similar cases. In this way, the system responds flexibly to the user's emotions, making the account management experience more comfortable.

[0132] This invention allows users to efficiently access multiple information processing devices and services using a unified, common account, and to receive emotionally sensitive support.

[0133] The following describes the processing flow.

[0134] Step 1:

[0135] The user launches the account integration application on their device and enters the account information for the services they want to integrate (for example, the usernames and passwords for service X and service Y).

[0136] Step 2:

[0137] The device encrypts the entered account information and sends it to the server via a secure communication channel.

[0138] Step 3:

[0139] The server decrypts the received encrypted data and performs authentication for each account for service X and service Y.

[0140] Step 4:

[0141] If authentication is successful, the server merges the accounts for service X and service Y into a common account and generates new identification information.

[0142] Step 5:

[0143] At the same time, the device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice, and sends them to the emotion engine.

[0144] Step 6:

[0145] The emotion engine analyzes the captured data to determine the user's emotional state (e.g., stress, joy, confusion).

[0146] Step 7:

[0147] Based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, the server returns a guide and support for common account operations that takes into account the user's state, providing the most appropriate feedback and interface adjustments.

[0148] Step 8:

[0149] Based on the analysis results, the device displays simple guides and support messages on the screen if the user is experiencing stress. It also provides a user interface that simplifies operation.

[0150] Step 9:

[0151] With this optimized support, users can continue their operations and access services X and Y smoothly.

[0152] Step 10:

[0153] If a user wishes to integrate a new service Z, they can do so by re-entering their account information and going through a similar process to add it to their shared account.

[0154] This process allows users to access multiple services in a single step while receiving personalized support that takes their emotions into consideration.

[0155] (Example 2)

[0156] Next, we will describe Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the smart device 14 as the "terminal".

[0157] The existence of multiple accounts for different information processing devices and services presents a problem of cumbersome management for users. Furthermore, few systems consider users' emotional states, resulting in a lack of systems that can effectively support users when they experience stress or confusion.

[0158] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0159] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating a first account and a second account configured for different information processing devices, means for generating a combined common account, and a device for acquiring and analyzing the user's emotional state. This enables efficient management of multiple accounts and allows for the suggestion of optimal operations based on the user's emotional state.

[0160] An "information processing device" is a device used for inputting, processing, and outputting data, and includes devices such as computers and servers.

[0161] An "account" is a set of user identification information necessary to access a specific information processing device or service, and includes things like usernames and passwords.

[0162] A "common account" is a single access identifier created by integrating multiple accounts across different information processing devices and services.

[0163] "Emotional state" refers to the mental state determined through the analysis of the user's facial expressions and voice, and includes stress, joy, confusion, and other emotions.

[0164] An "emotion engine" is a software or hardware component used to analyze a user's emotional state.

[0165] "Operation history" refers to a record of operations performed by the user in the past, and this record is used to suggest future operations.

[0166] "Recommended actions" are suggestions for the next action that are considered optimal, based on the user's emotional state and operation history.

[0167] Based on this invention, users can centrally manage accounts they individually hold for different information processing devices and services via a terminal. First, the user uses an account integration application to enter account information for each service they wish to integrate into the terminal. This includes authentication information such as username and password.

[0168] The terminal securely encrypts the entered account information using the SSL / TLS protocol and sends it to the server. The server receives this information and decrypts the data using a specific encryption key. The server then authenticates the user with each service provider and integrates the successful account information to generate a common account. This common account allows the user to access each service uniformly.

[0169] In addition, the device has a built-in camera and microphone, which are used to capture the user's facial expressions and voice. This data is immediately analyzed by an emotion engine to determine the user's emotional state. For example, if the device determines that the user is stressed, it adjusts the user interface to display more intuitive and easier operating procedures. This reduces stress for the user and allows them to manage their account efficiently.

[0170] Furthermore, the server suggests the most suitable actions based on the user's emotional state and operation history. For example, based on the actions chosen in the past when the user was stressed, it can display recommended actions to users currently in a similar emotional state.

[0171] As a concrete example, the prompt message using a generative AI model is as follows:

[0172] Prompt example: "Please provide an example of an operation guide that the system will provide to the user based on the sentiment data entered by the user."

[0173] In this way, this invention not only provides integrated account management for multiple different information processing devices, but also realizes a flexible user interface and operation suggestions that take into account the emotional state of the user.

[0174] The flow of the specific processing in Example 2 will be explained using Figure 13.

[0175] Step 1:

[0176] The user launches the account integration application on their device and enters account information for multiple information processing devices or services they wish to integrate. This input includes authentication information such as username and password. The device validates the input and prepares the data in the appropriate format.

[0177] Step 2:

[0178] The terminal encrypts the account information entered by the user using the SSL / TLS protocol. The encrypted data is processed using an encryption algorithm to ensure its security and then sent to the server via a secure communication channel. In this step, the input is the user's raw data, and the output is encrypted data.

[0179] Step 3:

[0180] The server decrypts the encrypted data received from the terminal using a specific decryption key. It obtains authentication information for each service from the decrypted data and performs user authentication procedures for each information processing device or service. Once authentication is complete, the server is ready to begin integrating each account. In this step, the input is encrypted data, and the output is the decrypted user account information.

[0181] Step 4:

[0182] The server executes an algorithm that integrates the authentication information of multiple successful accounts and generates a common account. It associates existing account data in the database and centralizes duplicate entries. This integrated data is output as a new common account with shared access information.

[0183] Step 5:

[0184] The device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice. The acquired data is sent to an emotion engine in real time for analysis. This analysis identifies the user's emotional state, determining conditions such as stress and joy. The input is the captured sensor data, and the output is the analyzed emotional state.

[0185] Step 6:

[0186] The device dynamically adjusts the user interface based on the emotional state obtained from the emotion engine. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, it suggests simplifying menus and guides in the interface. The input is emotion analysis information, and the output is the adjusted interface display.

[0187] Step 7:

[0188] The server combines sentiment analysis results with the user's past operation history to generate recommendations for optimal actions. Using a generative AI model, it prioritizes and presents actions that were previously recommended in similar situations, supporting efficient user operation. The input is sentiment data and operation history, and the output is suggested actions.

[0189] (Application Example 2)

[0190] Next, we will explain application example 2. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the smart device 14 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0191] Modern users must manage accounts for multiple services and devices individually, which creates a sense of cumbersomeness. Furthermore, users often experience stress navigating digital environments, resulting in a less-than-ideal user experience. Interface adjustments that appropriately consider emotions are needed.

[0192] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0193] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating accounts configured for different data processing devices, means for generating a unified common account, and means for analyzing the user's emotions and adjusting the user interface based on those emotions. This allows the user to centrally manage multiple accounts while enjoying a comfortable user environment adapted to their emotions.

[0194] A "data processing device" is an electronic device, including computers and servers, that can input, process, store, and output data.

[0195] An "account" is a collection of information used to manage permissions and settings for using digital services and devices.

[0196] "Integration" is the process of bringing together multiple individual accounts and pieces of information into a single, common system.

[0197] A "common account" is a unified user identification system that enables consistent access and management across multiple services.

[0198] "Authentication" is a procedure that verifies whether the information provided is correct and confirms that the user is legitimate.

[0199] An "emotional engine" is a technological device that analyzes and understands the emotional state of the user and optimizes system operation based on that information.

[0200] A "user interface" refers to the means, such as screens and input devices, that allow users to directly interact with a digital system.

[0201] This invention provides a system for a user to centrally manage multiple accounts for different data processing devices. This system consists of a user's smartphone or tablet and a server in the cloud.

[0202] The server first receives user account information associated with multiple different services. This information is encrypted by the terminal and sent to the server using a secure protocol. The server decrypts the retrieved account information, authenticates each service, and then integrates those accounts to create a common account. As a result, users can easily access each service using this common account.

[0203] The device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice. This data is input into an emotion engine to analyze the user's emotional state in real time. Specifically, it utilizes OpenCV facial recognition technology and Google® Cloud Speech-to-Text API to collect data for analyzing the user's emotions, and employs TENSORFLOW® and PyTorch-based emotion analysis models for the analysis. The analyzed emotion data is used to dynamically adjust the user interface.

[0204] For example, if a user experiences stress while using an online shopping site, the system analyzes this information using an emotion engine and improves usability by simplifying navigation or prioritizing the display of previously purchased items. An example of a prompt using a generative AI model would be: "Detect from the user's facial image and voice that they are feeling happy, and recommend special sale information for related products."

[0205] Thus, the present invention enables users to efficiently utilize services using an integrated account while enjoying an optimal user experience that takes their emotions into consideration.

[0206] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 2 will be explained using Figure 14.

[0207] Step 1:

[0208] The user enters account information for multiple services using a device such as a smartphone. The device encrypts the entered information and sends it to the server via a secure protocol. In this step, the user's input data is output as encrypted data.

[0209] Step 2:

[0210] The server decrypts the received encrypted data and performs individual account authentication for each service. If authentication is successful, it integrates the account information for each service and processes it to generate a common account. The output of this step is the newly generated common account information.

[0211] Step 3:

[0212] The device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice in real time. Based on this data, an emotion engine analyzes the user's emotional state. Specifically, it uses OpenCV to analyze facial expressions and the Google Cloud Speech-to-Text API to analyze voice tone. In this step, the user's emotional data is output as the analysis result.

[0213] Step 4:

[0214] The server dynamically adjusts the user interface based on the emotional data it receives. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, it may provide simplified navigation or recommend products based on past purchase history. The output of this step is the adjusted user interface.

[0215] Step 5:

[0216] Depending on the user's next action, prompt messages are sent to the generating AI model, which continuously provides appropriate recommendations and interface improvements. In this step, the recommendation results generated by the AI ​​model are obtained as output.

[0217] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart device 14. In the smart device 14, the control unit 46A causes the output device 40 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 38B 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 38B to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[0218] Data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (registered trademark) (Internet search).<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (registered trademark) (Internet search) <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">Examples of generative AI include the following. 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 with inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images. The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference results in data formats such as audio data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.

[0219] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which specific processing is performed by the data processing device 12, but the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and the specific processing may also be performed by the smart device 14.

[0220] [Second Embodiment]

[0221] Figure 3 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 210 according to the second embodiment.

[0222] As shown in Figure 3, the data processing system 210 includes a data processing device 12 and smart glasses 214. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0223] The data processing device 12 comprises a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication interface 26. The computer 22 is an example of a "computer" related to the technology of this disclosure. 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 (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).

[0224] The smart glasses 214 include a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, and a communication interface 44. 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, and camera 42 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0225] The microphone 238 receives voice signals from the user 20 and receives instructions from the user 20. The microphone 238 captures the voice signals from the user 20, 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.

[0226] 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 (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) image sensor or a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image sensor, and captures images of the area around the user 20 (for example, an imaging range defined by a field of view equivalent to the width of a typical healthy person's field of vision).

[0227] 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.

[0228] Figure 4 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart glasses 214. As shown in Figure 4, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing using the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.

[0229] The specific processing program 56 is an example of a "program" relating 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 in accordance with the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0230] The 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.

[0231] In the smart glasses 214, the processor 46 performs the reception output processing. The storage 50 stores the reception output program 60. The processor 46 reads the reception output program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read reception output program 60 on the RAM 48. The reception output processing is realized by the processor 46 operating as a control unit 46A according to the reception output program 60 executed on the RAM 48.

[0232] Next, the identification processing performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 will be described. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as the "terminal".

[0233] This invention provides a system for centrally managing accounts required by a user for multiple information processing devices or services. This system has the function of integrating multiple accounts created for different information processing devices and generating a common account.

[0234] The user first downloads the application using their device and then enters the account information they want to integrate through the interface. For example, the user provides the application with account information (username and password) for service A and account information for service B.

[0235] The terminal securely stores user input and transfers it to the server. Security is ensured by using encrypted communication protocols during the transfer. Upon receiving this information, the server authenticates the account information used for each service.

[0236] If authentication is successful, the server merges these accounts and creates a single common account. This common account consolidates information and access permissions for each corresponding service. After this, the server sends the details of the generated common account back to the terminal and notifies the user. As a result, the user can easily log in to services A and B in the future by using the common account information.

[0237] Furthermore, if a user creates an account for a new service C, they can also register additional information. In this case, the device sends the new account information to the server again. The server performs new account authentication and integrates it into the common account, thereby improving the user experience.

[0238] Thus, the invention improves convenience by providing an environment in which users can easily access multiple information processing devices and services using a single common account. Specifically, by managing SNS accounts and email accounts with a single common account, users can eliminate the need to log in individually.

[0239] The following describes the processing flow.

[0240] Step 1:

[0241] The user launches the account integration application on their device and enters the account information (username and password) for service A and service B to be integrated.

[0242] Step 2:

[0243] The terminal encrypts the account information entered by the user and sends it to the server using a secure communication protocol.

[0244] Step 3:

[0245] The server decrypts the received account information and sends authentication requests to the systems of Service A and Service B, respectively.

[0246] Step 4:

[0247] Each service's system returns the authentication result to the server. The server confirms that the authentication was successful.

[0248] Step 5:

[0249] If authentication is successful, the server will merge account A and account B and create a new common account. This involves combining the information from both accounts and assigning a unique identifier to the common account.

[0250] Step 6:

[0251] The server sends the generated common account information back to the terminal, notifying it of the common account's ID and access permissions.

[0252] Step 7:

[0253] From now on, users will be able to seamlessly log in to services A and B using their shared account information. The terminal will automatically use the shared account information and perform the login process as needed.

[0254] Step 8:

[0255] When a user attempts to add account information for a new service C, the user enters the new account information into the terminal. The terminal sends this information to the server and begins the process of integrating it into the existing common account.

[0256] Step 9:

[0257] The server authenticates the account information for service C and integrates it into the common account. Once the integration process is complete, it sends the updated information to the terminal. Users can then manage the new service C using the common account.

[0258] (Example 1)

[0259] Next, we will describe Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0260] Managing separate identification information for each different information processing device and service is cumbersome for users, making it difficult to balance enhanced security with convenience. There is a need to solve this problem and provide an environment that centrally manages identification information, allowing for easy and secure access to multiple services.

[0261] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0262] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating multiple pieces of identification information, means for generating the integrated common identification information, means for performing authentication using the common identification information, means for transferring information using an encrypted communication method to ensure secure communication, and means for transmitting the common identification information to an information terminal to notify the user. This simplifies access to different information processing devices and services, and enables users to access multiple services securely and efficiently with a single common identification information.

[0263] An "information processing device" is a system that includes hardware and software for inputting, processing, storing, and outputting data.

[0264] "Identification information" refers to information such as usernames and passwords used when accessing information processing devices or services.

[0265] "Integrating" refers to the process of combining multiple pieces of identification information into a single, common format or structure.

[0266] A "common identification" is a single set of access credentials that are integrated across different information processing devices and services.

[0267] "Authentication" is the process of verifying whether the identification information provided by the user is legitimate.

[0268] An "encrypted communication method" is a communication technique that uses encryption technology to securely send and receive data.

[0269] An "information terminal" is a device, such as a computer, smartphone, or tablet, that a user operates to send and receive information.

[0270] This invention provides a system for providing an environment in which a user can centrally manage and easily and securely access identification information across multiple information processing devices or services. This system includes a dedicated application for terminals and multiple authentication and integration functions on the server side.

[0271] The user downloads and installs the application on their device. This application has the functionality to securely input, store, and transfer identification information from various information processing devices. The device encrypts the identification information entered by the user and sends it to the server using a secure communication protocol (e.g., HTTPS).

[0272] The server decrypts the encrypted identification information received from the terminal and performs authentication for each service and information processing device. After successful authentication, the server integrates this identification information to generate a common identification information. This common identification information is re-encrypted and sent to the terminal. The terminal notifies the user of this information, and the user can use this information to easily access each service and information processing device.

[0273] As a concrete example, users can input their identification information from different social networking services and email services into an application and integrate it. This allows users to access all services using a common identification information only once, improving efficiency.

[0274] An example of a prompt message would be: "We are considering a system where a user enters account information for services A and B that they want to integrate on their own device, and then sends this information to the server to generate a common account. Please list the features of this system and explain how it improves usability."

[0275] The flow of the specific processing in Example 1 will be explained using Figure 11.

[0276] Step 1:

[0277] The user downloads and installs a dedicated application on their device. After installation, they launch the application and perform the initial setup. This step requires the user's basic settings information (e.g., language settings) as input and provides a usable application environment as output.

[0278] Step 2:

[0279] The user uses the application to enter identification information (such as username and password) for multiple information processing services they wish to integrate. This identification information is required as input, and the terminal securely stores it. Specifically, the entered information is encrypted and temporarily stored in a local database.

[0280] Step 3:

[0281] The terminal sends the saved identification information to the server using an encrypted communication protocol. In this step, encrypted identification information is required as input, and secure data transmission to the server is achieved as output. Specifically, HTTPS communication is performed and sent via the network as data packets.

[0282] Step 4:

[0283] The server decrypts the received encrypted data and authenticates the identification information for each service. Decrypted identification information is required as input, and an authentication result is obtained as output. Specifically, a login attempt is made using the API of each service.

[0284] Step 5:

[0285] If the authentication is successful, the server integrates the identification information and generates common identification information. In this step, authenticated identification information is required as input, and integrated common identification information is obtained as output. As specific data processing, each piece of information is summarized and saved as a new record in the database.

[0286] Step 6:

[0287] The server re-encrypts the generated common identification information and sends it to the terminal. In this step, integrated common identification information is required as input, and encrypted data reaches the terminal as output. Specifically, HTTPS is used again to send the data.

[0288] Step 7:

[0289] The terminal decrypts encrypted data received from the server and notifies the user of a common identification information. Encrypted information is required as input, and the output is human-readable information displayed to the user. Specifically, after the decryption process, the result is displayed on the application's UI.

[0290] Step 8:

[0291] Users access information processing services using a common identification information. This common identification information is used as input, enabling authentication within the service. The output is an environment where users can log in to the service. For example, a user can access multiple services with a single entry.

[0292] (Application Example 1)

[0293] Next, we will explain Application Example 1. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0294] The challenge is to eliminate the hassle of users having to individually manage multiple accounts across different information processing systems and electronic trading platforms, and to provide an environment where they can be managed centrally and more easily.

[0295] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0296] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating a first user account and a second user account configured for different information processing systems, means for generating an integrated common user account, means for granting authorization to connect to the information processing system using the common user account, and means for integrating account information from different electronic transaction platforms and generating a centrally managed payment account. This allows users to access different services from a single common account and to easily make payments on multiple electronic transaction platforms.

[0297] An "information processing system" is a combination of hardware and software for collecting, processing, storing, and sharing data.

[0298] A "user account" is a profile that contains authentication information necessary to access information processing systems and services and to identify the user.

[0299] An "electronic trading platform" refers to a digital marketplace or payment system that enables online commercial transactions.

[0300] "Integrating" means combining multiple different elements or pieces of information and bringing them together into a single system or structure.

[0301] A "common user account" is an account that provides a unified authentication profile across multiple information processing systems and electronic trading platforms.

[0302] A "payment account" is an account that contains authentication information and settings for sending and receiving money on an electronic transaction platform.

[0303] "Approving" refers to the process of verifying the user's permissions and access based on the entered authentication information and granting access permission.

[0304] To implement this invention, first, the user needs to download an application on the terminal they use and enter the user account information of each information processing system to be integrated. The terminal securely stores the data entered by the user and transmits it to the server using an encrypted communication protocol.

[0305] The server authenticates the received different user account information for each information processing system and electronic trading platform, and integrates these accounts based on the successful information. Through integration, a common user account is generated. This common user account is generated by the server and transmitted to the terminal in a securely encrypted form. The user can use this common user account to access different information processing systems and electronic trading platforms uniformly.

[0306] As a specific example, by the user entering the account information of the SNS service, email service, and the payment system of the online marketplace into the application, these can be integrated into a single common user account, simplifying the procedures for access and payment.

[0307] By utilizing the generated AI model, it is possible to analyze how the user uses the common user account in which service and how they are using it, and make proposals for optimizing the service.

[0308] As an example of a prompt sentence for a specific generated AI model, there is "Please explain the convenience of this integrated payment account system. Please give an example of the scenario used in online shopping."

[0309] The flow of the specific process in Application Example 1 will be described using FIG. 12.

[0310] Step 1:

[0311] The user downloads an application to the device and enters account information for different information processing systems and electronic trading platforms. The device collects and securely stores the input data from the user. This input includes the username and password, which the device stores in its internal database.

[0312] Step 2:

[0313] The terminal encrypts the stored account information and sends it to the server. The terminal uses an encryption algorithm to transform the data and transfers it to the server over the network using a communication protocol (e.g., TLS / SSL). The output is the encrypted account information.

[0314] Step 3:

[0315] The server decrypts the received encrypted account information and authenticates it to each information processing system and electronic trading platform. The server obtains access rights to each platform API and verifies the legitimacy of the account information entered by the user. The input is encrypted information, and the output is the authentication status.

[0316] Step 4:

[0317] If authentication is successful, the server merges these accounts and creates a common user account. The server generates a new merged database entry based on the information of the different accounts. The input is the information of each account, and the output is the merged common account data.

[0318] Step 5:

[0319] The server encrypts the generated common user account and sends it to the terminal. The server uses the same encryption protocol to protect the data and returns it to the terminal over the network. The output is encrypted common account information.

[0320] Step 6:

[0321] The user's device receives shared user account information and notifies the user. The device decrypts the data and displays it through the user interface. The input is encrypted data, and the output is account information accessible to the user.

[0322] Step 7:

[0323] By using a common user account, users can access and operate different information processing systems and electronic transaction platforms from a single central location. This allows users to easily access multiple services with a single click and streamline payment processes.

[0324] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotions may be incorporated. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may use the emotion identification model 59 to estimate the user's emotions and perform identification processing using the user's emotions.

[0325] This invention provides a system that integrates an emotion engine to centrally manage accounts required by a user for different information processing devices or services. In addition to the function of integrating accounts created for different information processing devices and generating a common account, this system includes an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions and optimizes the system's operation based on that information.

[0326] The user operates the account integration application via their device and enters account information for multiple services they wish to integrate. For example, if the user provides account information for service X and service Y, the application receives and processes this information.

[0327] The terminal encrypts the user's input and sends it to the server using a secure protocol. After decrypting the account information, the server authenticates each service. Once authentication is complete, the accounts for service X and service Y are merged, and a new common account is created.

[0328] Meanwhile, the device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice, and an emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions. The emotion engine identifies the user's stress levels, joy, difficulty, etc., and adjusts the user interface based on this information. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the system can provide simpler operating procedures or guidance.

[0329] Based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, the server recommends the most appropriate account actions for the user's emotions. Furthermore, by referring to the user's action history in response to changes in emotions, it can prioritize suggesting actions that were preferred in similar emotional states in the past.

[0330] For example, if a user spends more time than necessary entering account information, the system will determine that the user is confused and, through its emotion engine, will highlight error messages and provide tutorials for similar cases. In this way, the system responds flexibly to the user's emotions, making the account management experience more comfortable.

[0331] This invention allows users to efficiently access multiple information processing devices and services using a unified, common account, and to receive emotionally sensitive support.

[0332] The following describes the processing flow.

[0333] Step 1:

[0334] The user launches the account integration application on their device and enters the account information for the services they want to integrate (for example, the usernames and passwords for service X and service Y).

[0335] Step 2:

[0336] The device encrypts the entered account information and sends it to the server via a secure communication channel.

[0337] Step 3:

[0338] The server decrypts the received encrypted data and performs authentication for each account for service X and service Y.

[0339] Step 4:

[0340] If authentication is successful, the server merges the accounts for service X and service Y into a common account and generates new identification information.

[0341] Step 5:

[0342] At the same time, the device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice, and sends them to the emotion engine.

[0343] Step 6:

[0344] The emotion engine analyzes the captured data to determine the user's emotional state (e.g., stress, joy, confusion).

[0345] Step 7:

[0346] Based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, the server returns a guide and support for common account operations that takes into account the user's state, providing the most appropriate feedback and interface adjustments.

[0347] Step 8:

[0348] Based on the analysis results, the device displays simple guides and support messages on the screen if the user is experiencing stress. It also provides a user interface that simplifies operation.

[0349] Step 9:

[0350] With this optimized support, users can continue their operations and access services X and Y smoothly.

[0351] Step 10:

[0352] If a user wishes to integrate a new service Z, they can do so by re-entering their account information and going through a similar process to add it to their shared account.

[0353] This process allows users to access multiple services in a single step while receiving personalized support that takes their emotions into consideration.

[0354] (Example 2)

[0355] Next, we will describe Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as the "terminal".

[0356] The existence of multiple accounts for different information processing devices and services presents a problem of cumbersome management for users. Furthermore, few systems consider users' emotional states, resulting in a lack of systems that can effectively support users when they experience stress or confusion.

[0357] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0358] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating a first account and a second account configured for different information processing devices, means for generating a combined common account, and a device for acquiring and analyzing the user's emotional state. This enables efficient management of multiple accounts and allows for the suggestion of optimal operations based on the user's emotional state.

[0359] An "information processing device" is a device used for inputting, processing, and outputting data, and includes devices such as computers and servers.

[0360] An "account" is a set of user identification information necessary to access a specific information processing device or service, and includes things like usernames and passwords.

[0361] A "common account" is a single access identifier created by integrating multiple accounts across different information processing devices and services.

[0362] "Emotional state" refers to the mental state determined through the analysis of the user's facial expressions and voice, and includes stress, joy, confusion, and other emotions.

[0363] An "emotion engine" is a software or hardware component used to analyze a user's emotional state.

[0364] "Operation history" refers to a record of operations performed by the user in the past, and this record is used to suggest future operations.

[0365] "Recommended actions" are suggestions for the next action that are considered optimal, based on the user's emotional state and operation history.

[0366] Based on this invention, users can centrally manage accounts they individually hold for different information processing devices and services via a terminal. First, the user uses an account integration application to enter account information for each service they wish to integrate into the terminal. This includes authentication information such as username and password.

[0367] The terminal securely encrypts the entered account information using the SSL / TLS protocol and sends it to the server. The server receives this information and decrypts the data using a specific encryption key. The server then authenticates the user with each service provider and integrates the successful account information to generate a common account. This common account allows the user to access each service uniformly.

[0368] In addition, the device has a built-in camera and microphone, which are used to capture the user's facial expressions and voice. This data is immediately analyzed by an emotion engine to determine the user's emotional state. For example, if the device determines that the user is stressed, it adjusts the user interface to display more intuitive and easier operating procedures. This reduces stress for the user and allows them to manage their account efficiently.

[0369] Furthermore, the server suggests the most suitable actions based on the user's emotional state and operation history. For example, based on the actions chosen in the past when the user was stressed, it can display recommended actions to users currently in a similar emotional state.

[0370] As a concrete example, the prompt message using a generative AI model is as follows:

[0371] Prompt example: "Please provide an example of an operation guide that the system will provide to the user based on the sentiment data entered by the user."

[0372] In this way, this invention not only provides integrated account management for multiple different information processing devices, but also realizes a flexible user interface and operation suggestions that take into account the emotional state of the user.

[0373] The flow of the specific processing in Example 2 will be explained using Figure 13.

[0374] Step 1:

[0375] The user launches the account integration application on their device and enters account information for multiple information processing devices or services they wish to integrate. This input includes authentication information such as username and password. The device validates the input and prepares the data in the appropriate format.

[0376] Step 2:

[0377] The terminal encrypts the account information entered by the user using the SSL / TLS protocol. The encrypted data is processed using an encryption algorithm to ensure its security and then sent to the server via a secure communication channel. In this step, the input is the user's raw data, and the output is encrypted data.

[0378] Step 3:

[0379] The server decrypts the encrypted data received from the terminal using a specific decryption key. It obtains authentication information for each service from the decrypted data and performs user authentication procedures for each information processing device or service. Once authentication is complete, the server is ready to begin integrating each account. In this step, the input is encrypted data, and the output is the decrypted user account information.

[0380] Step 4:

[0381] The server executes an algorithm that integrates the authentication information of multiple successful accounts and generates a common account. It associates existing account data in the database and centralizes duplicate entries. This integrated data is output as a new common account with shared access information.

[0382] Step 5:

[0383] The device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice. The acquired data is sent to an emotion engine in real time for analysis. This analysis identifies the user's emotional state, determining conditions such as stress and joy. The input is the captured sensor data, and the output is the analyzed emotional state.

[0384] Step 6:

[0385] The device dynamically adjusts the user interface based on the emotional state obtained from the emotion engine. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, it suggests simplifying menus and guides in the interface. The input is emotion analysis information, and the output is the adjusted interface display.

[0386] Step 7:

[0387] The server combines sentiment analysis results with the user's past operation history to generate recommendations for optimal actions. Using a generative AI model, it prioritizes and presents actions that were previously recommended in similar situations, supporting efficient user operation. The input is sentiment data and operation history, and the output is suggested actions.

[0388] (Application Example 2)

[0389] Next, we will explain application example 2. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0390] Modern users must manage accounts for multiple services and devices individually, which creates a sense of cumbersomeness. Furthermore, users often experience stress navigating digital environments, resulting in a less-than-ideal user experience. Interface adjustments that appropriately consider emotions are needed.

[0391] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0392] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating accounts configured for different data processing devices, means for generating a unified common account, and means for analyzing the user's emotions and adjusting the user interface based on those emotions. This allows the user to centrally manage multiple accounts while enjoying a comfortable user environment adapted to their emotions.

[0393] A "data processing device" is an electronic device, including computers and servers, that can input, process, store, and output data.

[0394] An "account" is a collection of information used to manage permissions and settings for using digital services and devices.

[0395] "Integration" is the process of bringing together multiple individual accounts and pieces of information into a single, common system.

[0396] A "common account" is a unified user identification system that enables consistent access and management across multiple services.

[0397] "Authentication" is a procedure that verifies whether the information provided is correct and confirms that the user is legitimate.

[0398] An "emotional engine" is a technological device that analyzes and understands the emotional state of the user and optimizes system operation based on that information.

[0399] A "user interface" refers to the means, such as screens and input devices, that allow users to directly interact with a digital system.

[0400] This invention provides a system for a user to centrally manage multiple accounts for different data processing devices. This system consists of a user's smartphone or tablet and a server in the cloud.

[0401] The server first receives user account information associated with multiple different services. This information is encrypted by the terminal and sent to the server using a secure protocol. The server decrypts the retrieved account information, authenticates each service, and then integrates those accounts to create a common account. As a result, users can easily access each service using this common account.

[0402] The device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice. This data is input into an emotion engine, which analyzes the user's emotional state in real time. Specifically, it utilizes OpenCV facial recognition technology and the Google Cloud Speech-to-Text API to collect data for analyzing the user's emotions, and uses TensorFlow and PyTorch-based emotion analysis models for the analysis. The analyzed emotion data is used to dynamically adjust the user interface.

[0403] For example, if a user experiences stress while using an online shopping site, the system analyzes this information using an emotion engine and improves usability by simplifying navigation or prioritizing the display of previously purchased items. An example of a prompt using a generative AI model would be: "Detect from the user's facial image and voice that they are feeling happy, and recommend special sale information for related products."

[0404] Thus, the present invention enables users to efficiently utilize services using an integrated account while enjoying an optimal user experience that takes their emotions into consideration.

[0405] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 2 will be explained using Figure 14.

[0406] Step 1:

[0407] The user enters account information for multiple services using a device such as a smartphone. The device encrypts the entered information and sends it to the server via a secure protocol. In this step, the user's input data is output as encrypted data.

[0408] Step 2:

[0409] The server decrypts the received encrypted data and performs individual account authentication for each service. If authentication is successful, it integrates the account information for each service and processes it to generate a common account. The output of this step is the newly generated common account information.

[0410] Step 3:

[0411] The device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice in real time. Based on this data, an emotion engine analyzes the user's emotional state. Specifically, it uses OpenCV to analyze facial expressions and the Google Cloud Speech-to-Text API to analyze voice tone. In this step, the user's emotional data is output as the analysis result.

[0412] Step 4:

[0413] The server dynamically adjusts the user interface based on the emotional data it receives. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, it may provide simplified navigation or recommend products based on past purchase history. The output of this step is the adjusted user interface.

[0414] Step 5:

[0415] Depending on the user's next action, prompt messages are sent to the generating AI model, which continuously provides appropriate recommendations and interface improvements. In this step, the recommendation results generated by the AI ​​model are obtained as output.

[0416] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart glasses 214. In the smart glasses 214, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating 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.

[0417] Data generation model 58 is a type of so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). One example of data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search) <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">Examples of generative AI include the following. 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 with inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images. The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference results in data formats such as audio data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.

[0418] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which specific processing is performed by the data processing device 12, but the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and the specific processing may also be performed by the smart glasses 214.

[0419] [Third Embodiment]

[0420] Figure 5 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 310 according to the third embodiment.

[0421] As shown in Figure 5, the data processing system 310 includes a data processing device 12 and a headset terminal 314. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0422] The data processing device 12 comprises a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication interface 26. The computer 22 is an example of a "computer" related to the technology of this disclosure. 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 (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).

[0423] The headset terminal 314 includes a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, a communication interface 44, and a display 343. 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 display 343 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0424] The microphone 238 receives voice signals from the user 20 and receives instructions from the user 20. The microphone 238 captures the voice signals from the user 20, 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.

[0425] 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 (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) image sensor or a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image sensor, and captures images of the area around the user 20 (for example, an imaging range defined by a field of view equivalent to the width of a typical healthy person's field of vision).

[0426] 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.

[0427] Figure 6 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the headset terminal 314. As shown in Figure 6, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing using the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.

[0428] The specific processing program 56 is an example of a "program" relating 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 in accordance with the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0429] The 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.

[0430] In the headset terminal 314, the processor 46 performs the reception output processing. The storage 50 stores the reception output program 60. The processor 46 reads the reception output program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read reception output program 60 on the RAM 48. The reception output processing is realized by the processor 46 operating as a control unit 46A according to the reception output program 60 executed on the RAM 48.

[0431] Next, the specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 will be described. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the headset terminal 314 will be referred to as the "terminal".

[0432] This invention provides a system for centrally managing accounts required by a user for multiple information processing devices or services. This system has the function of integrating multiple accounts created for different information processing devices and generating a common account.

[0433] The user first downloads the application using their device and then enters the account information they want to integrate through the interface. For example, the user provides the application with account information (username and password) for service A and account information for service B.

[0434] The terminal securely stores user input and transfers it to the server. Security is ensured by using encrypted communication protocols during the transfer. Upon receiving this information, the server authenticates the account information used for each service.

[0435] If authentication is successful, the server merges these accounts and creates a single common account. This common account consolidates information and access permissions for each corresponding service. After this, the server sends the details of the generated common account back to the terminal and notifies the user. As a result, the user can easily log in to services A and B in the future by using the common account information.

[0436] Furthermore, if a user creates an account for a new service C, they can also register additional information. In this case, the device sends the new account information to the server again. The server performs new account authentication and integrates it into the common account, thereby improving the user experience.

[0437] Thus, the invention improves convenience by providing an environment in which users can easily access multiple information processing devices and services using a single common account. Specifically, by managing SNS accounts and email accounts with a single common account, users can eliminate the need to log in individually.

[0438] The following describes the processing flow.

[0439] Step 1:

[0440] The user launches the account integration application on their device and enters the account information (username and password) for service A and service B to be integrated.

[0441] Step 2:

[0442] The terminal encrypts the account information entered by the user and sends it to the server using a secure communication protocol.

[0443] Step 3:

[0444] The server decrypts the received account information and sends authentication requests to the systems of Service A and Service B, respectively.

[0445] Step 4:

[0446] Each service's system returns the authentication result to the server. The server confirms that the authentication was successful.

[0447] Step 5:

[0448] If authentication is successful, the server will merge account A and account B and create a new common account. This involves combining the information from both accounts and assigning a unique identifier to the common account.

[0449] Step 6:

[0450] The server sends the generated common account information back to the terminal, notifying it of the common account's ID and access permissions.

[0451] Step 7:

[0452] From now on, users will be able to seamlessly log in to services A and B using their shared account information. The terminal will automatically use the shared account information and perform the login process as needed.

[0453] Step 8:

[0454] When a user attempts to add account information for a new service C, the user enters the new account information into the terminal. The terminal sends this information to the server and begins the process of integrating it into the existing common account.

[0455] Step 9:

[0456] The server authenticates the account information for service C and integrates it into the common account. Once the integration process is complete, it sends the updated information to the terminal. Users can then manage the new service C using the common account.

[0457] (Example 1)

[0458] Next, we will describe Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the headset-type terminal 314 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0459] Managing separate identification information for each different information processing device and service is cumbersome for users, making it difficult to balance enhanced security with convenience. There is a need to solve this problem and provide an environment that centrally manages identification information, allowing for easy and secure access to multiple services.

[0460] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0461] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating multiple pieces of identification information, means for generating the integrated common identification information, means for performing authentication using the common identification information, means for transferring information using an encrypted communication method to ensure secure communication, and means for transmitting the common identification information to an information terminal to notify the user. This simplifies access to different information processing devices and services, and enables users to access multiple services securely and efficiently with a single common identification information.

[0462] An "information processing device" is a system that includes hardware and software for inputting, processing, storing, and outputting data.

[0463] "Identification information" refers to information such as usernames and passwords used when accessing information processing devices or services.

[0464] "Integrating" refers to the process of combining multiple pieces of identification information into a single, common format or structure.

[0465] A "common identification" is a single set of access credentials that are integrated across different information processing devices and services.

[0466] "Authentication" is the process of verifying whether the identification information provided by the user is legitimate.

[0467] An "encrypted communication method" is a communication technique that uses encryption technology to securely send and receive data.

[0468] An "information terminal" is a device, such as a computer, smartphone, or tablet, that a user operates to send and receive information.

[0469] This invention provides a system for providing an environment in which a user can centrally manage and easily and securely access identification information across multiple information processing devices or services. This system includes a dedicated application for terminals and multiple authentication and integration functions on the server side.

[0470] The user downloads and installs the application on their device. This application has the functionality to securely input, store, and transfer identification information from various information processing devices. The device encrypts the identification information entered by the user and sends it to the server using a secure communication protocol (e.g., HTTPS).

[0471] The server decrypts the encrypted identification information received from the terminal and performs authentication for each service and information processing device. After successful authentication, the server integrates this identification information to generate a common identification information. This common identification information is re-encrypted and sent to the terminal. The terminal notifies the user of this information, and the user can use this information to easily access each service and information processing device.

[0472] As a concrete example, users can input their identification information from different social networking services and email services into an application and integrate it. This allows users to access all services using a common identification information only once, improving efficiency.

[0473] An example of a prompt message would be: "We are considering a system where a user enters account information for services A and B that they want to integrate on their own device, and then sends this information to the server to generate a common account. Please list the features of this system and explain how it improves usability."

[0474] The flow of the specific processing in Example 1 will be explained using Figure 11.

[0475] Step 1:

[0476] The user downloads and installs a dedicated application on their device. After installation, they launch the application and perform the initial setup. This step requires the user's basic settings information (e.g., language settings) as input and provides a usable application environment as output.

[0477] Step 2:

[0478] The user uses the application to enter identification information (such as username and password) for multiple information processing services they wish to integrate. This identification information is required as input, and the terminal securely stores it. Specifically, the entered information is encrypted and temporarily stored in a local database.

[0479] Step 3:

[0480] The terminal sends the stored identification information to the server using an encrypted communication protocol. This step requires encrypted identification information as input and achieves secure data transmission to the server as output. Specifically, HTTPS communication is performed, and the data is sent over the network as data packets.

[0481] Step 4:

[0482] The server decrypts the received encrypted data and authenticates the user's identity for each service. The decrypted identity information is required as input, and the authentication result is obtained as output. Specifically, login attempts are made using the API of each service.

[0483] Step 5:

[0484] If authentication is successful, the server integrates the identification information and generates a common identification. This step requires authenticated identification as input and outputs the integrated common identification. In terms of specific data processing, each piece of information is combined and saved as a new record in the database.

[0485] Step 6:

[0486] The server re-encrypts the generated common identification information and sends it to the terminal. This step requires the integrated common identification information as input, and the terminal receives encrypted data as output. Specifically, the data is sent again using HTTPS.

[0487] Step 7:

[0488] The terminal decrypts encrypted data received from the server and notifies the user of a common identification information. Encrypted information is required as input, and the output is human-readable information displayed to the user. Specifically, after the decryption process, the result is displayed on the application's UI.

[0489] Step 8:

[0490] Users access information processing services using a common identification information. This common identification information is used as input, enabling authentication within the service. The output is an environment where users can log in to the service. For example, a user can access multiple services with a single entry.

[0491] (Application Example 1)

[0492] Next, we will explain Application Example 1. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the headset-type terminal 314 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0493] The challenge is to eliminate the hassle of users having to individually manage multiple accounts across different information processing systems and electronic trading platforms, and to provide an environment where they can be managed centrally and more easily.

[0494] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0495] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating a first user account and a second user account configured for different information processing systems, means for generating an integrated common user account, means for granting authorization to connect to the information processing system using the common user account, and means for integrating account information from different electronic transaction platforms and generating a centrally managed payment account. This allows users to access different services from a single common account and to easily make payments on multiple electronic transaction platforms.

[0496] An "information processing system" is a combination of hardware and software for collecting, processing, storing, and sharing data.

[0497] A "user account" is a profile that contains authentication information necessary to access information processing systems and services and to identify the user.

[0498] An "electronic trading platform" refers to a digital marketplace or payment system that enables online commercial transactions.

[0499] "Integrating" means combining multiple different elements or pieces of information and bringing them together into a single system or structure.

[0500] A "common user account" is an account that provides a unified authentication profile across multiple information processing systems and electronic trading platforms.

[0501] A "payment account" is an account that contains authentication information and settings for sending and receiving money on an electronic transaction platform.

[0502] "Approving" refers to the process of verifying the user's permissions and access based on the entered authentication information and granting access permission.

[0503] To implement this invention, the user must first download the application on their terminal and enter the user account information for each information processing system they wish to integrate. The terminal securely stores the data entered by the user and transmits it to the server using an encrypted communication protocol.

[0504] The server authenticates the received user account information against each information processing system and electronic trading platform, and integrates these accounts based on the successful authentication. This integration generates a common user account. This common user account is generated by the server and securely encrypted before being sent to the terminal. Users can then use this common user account to access different information processing systems and electronic trading platforms from a single, unified perspective.

[0505] As a concrete example, by having users enter their account information for social networking services, email services, and online marketplace payment systems into the application, these can be integrated into a single common user account, simplifying access and payment procedures.

[0506] By utilizing generative AI models, it is possible to analyze which services users use shared user accounts for and how they use them, and then make suggestions for optimizing those services.

[0507] An example of a specific prompt for a generative AI model is: "Please explain the convenience of this integrated payment account system. Please give an example of how it would be used in online shopping."

[0508] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 1 will be explained using Figure 12.

[0509] Step 1:

[0510] The user downloads an application to the device and enters account information for different information processing systems and electronic trading platforms. The device collects and securely stores the input data from the user. This input includes the username and password, which the device stores in its internal database.

[0511] Step 2:

[0512] The terminal encrypts the stored account information and sends it to the server. The terminal uses an encryption algorithm to transform the data and transfers it to the server over the network using a communication protocol (e.g., TLS / SSL). The output is the encrypted account information.

[0513] Step 3:

[0514] The server decrypts the received encrypted account information and authenticates it to each information processing system and electronic trading platform. The server obtains access rights to each platform API and verifies the legitimacy of the account information entered by the user. The input is encrypted information, and the output is the authentication status.

[0515] Step 4:

[0516] If authentication is successful, the server merges these accounts and creates a common user account. The server generates a new merged database entry based on the information of the different accounts. The input is the information of each account, and the output is the merged common account data.

[0517] Step 5:

[0518] The server encrypts the generated common user account and sends it to the terminal. The server uses the same encryption protocol to protect the data and returns it to the terminal over the network. The output is encrypted common account information.

[0519] Step 6:

[0520] The user's device receives shared user account information and notifies the user. The device decrypts the data and displays it through the user interface. The input is encrypted data, and the output is account information accessible to the user.

[0521] Step 7:

[0522] By using a common user account, users can access and operate different information processing systems and electronic transaction platforms from a single central location. This allows users to easily access multiple services with a single click and streamline payment processes.

[0523] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotions may be incorporated. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may use the emotion identification model 59 to estimate the user's emotions and perform identification processing using the user's emotions.

[0524] This invention provides a system that integrates an emotion engine to centrally manage accounts required by a user for different information processing devices or services. In addition to the function of integrating accounts created for different information processing devices and generating a common account, this system includes an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions and optimizes the system's operation based on that information.

[0525] The user operates the account integration application via their device and enters account information for multiple services they wish to integrate. For example, if the user provides account information for service X and service Y, the application receives and processes this information.

[0526] The terminal encrypts the user's input and sends it to the server using a secure protocol. After decrypting the account information, the server authenticates each service. Once authentication is complete, the accounts for service X and service Y are merged, and a new common account is created.

[0527] Meanwhile, the device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice, and an emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions. The emotion engine identifies the user's stress levels, joy, difficulty, etc., and adjusts the user interface based on this information. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the system can provide simpler operating procedures or guidance.

[0528] Based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, the server recommends the most appropriate account actions for the user's emotions. Furthermore, by referring to the user's action history in response to changes in emotions, it can prioritize suggesting actions that were preferred in similar emotional states in the past.

[0529] For example, if a user spends more time than necessary entering account information, the system will determine that the user is confused and, through its emotion engine, will highlight error messages and provide tutorials for similar cases. In this way, the system responds flexibly to the user's emotions, making the account management experience more comfortable.

[0530] This invention allows users to efficiently access multiple information processing devices and services using a unified, common account, and to receive emotionally sensitive support.

[0531] The following describes the processing flow.

[0532] Step 1:

[0533] The user launches the account integration application on their device and enters the account information for the services they want to integrate (for example, the usernames and passwords for service X and service Y).

[0534] Step 2:

[0535] The device encrypts the entered account information and sends it to the server via a secure communication channel.

[0536] Step 3:

[0537] The server decrypts the received encrypted data and performs authentication for each account for service X and service Y.

[0538] Step 4:

[0539] If authentication is successful, the server merges the accounts for service X and service Y into a common account and generates new identification information.

[0540] Step 5:

[0541] At the same time, the device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice, and sends them to the emotion engine.

[0542] Step 6:

[0543] The emotion engine analyzes the captured data to determine the user's emotional state (e.g., stress, joy, confusion).

[0544] Step 7:

[0545] Based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, the server returns a guide and support for common account operations that takes into account the user's state, providing the most appropriate feedback and interface adjustments.

[0546] Step 8:

[0547] Based on the analysis results, the device displays simple guides and support messages on the screen if the user is experiencing stress. It also provides a user interface that simplifies operation.

[0548] Step 9:

[0549] With this optimized support, users can continue their operations and access services X and Y smoothly.

[0550] Step 10:

[0551] If a user wishes to integrate a new service Z, they can do so by re-entering their account information and going through a similar process to add it to their shared account.

[0552] This process allows users to access multiple services in a single step while receiving personalized support that takes their emotions into consideration.

[0553] (Example 2)

[0554] Next, we will describe Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the headset-type terminal 314 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0555] The existence of multiple accounts for different information processing devices and services presents a problem of cumbersome management for users. Furthermore, few systems consider users' emotional states, resulting in a lack of systems that can effectively support users when they experience stress or confusion.

[0556] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0557] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating a first account and a second account configured for different information processing devices, means for generating a combined common account, and a device for acquiring and analyzing the user's emotional state. This enables efficient management of multiple accounts and allows for the suggestion of optimal operations based on the user's emotional state.

[0558] An "information processing device" is a device used for inputting, processing, and outputting data, and includes devices such as computers and servers.

[0559] An "account" is a set of user identification information necessary to access a specific information processing device or service, and includes things like usernames and passwords.

[0560] A "common account" is a single access identifier created by integrating multiple accounts across different information processing devices and services.

[0561] "Emotional state" refers to the mental state determined through the analysis of the user's facial expressions and voice, and includes stress, joy, confusion, and other emotions.

[0562] An "emotion engine" is a software or hardware component used to analyze a user's emotional state.

[0563] "Operation history" refers to a record of operations performed by the user in the past, and this record is used to suggest future operations.

[0564] "Recommended actions" are suggestions for the next action that are considered optimal, based on the user's emotional state and operation history.

[0565] Based on this invention, users can centrally manage accounts they individually hold for different information processing devices and services via a terminal. First, the user uses an account integration application to enter account information for each service they wish to integrate into the terminal. This includes authentication information such as username and password.

[0566] The terminal securely encrypts the entered account information using the SSL / TLS protocol and sends it to the server. The server receives this information and decrypts the data using a specific encryption key. The server then authenticates the user with each service provider and integrates the successful account information to generate a common account. This common account allows the user to access each service uniformly.

[0567] In addition, the device has a built-in camera and microphone, which are used to capture the user's facial expressions and voice. This data is immediately analyzed by an emotion engine to determine the user's emotional state. For example, if the device determines that the user is stressed, it adjusts the user interface to display more intuitive and easier operating procedures. This reduces stress for the user and allows them to manage their account efficiently.

[0568] Furthermore, the server suggests the most suitable actions based on the user's emotional state and operation history. For example, based on the actions chosen in the past when the user was stressed, it can display recommended actions to users currently in a similar emotional state.

[0569] As a concrete example, the prompt message using a generative AI model is as follows:

[0570] Prompt example: "Please provide an example of an operation guide that the system will provide to the user based on the sentiment data entered by the user."

[0571] In this way, this invention not only provides integrated account management for multiple different information processing devices, but also realizes a flexible user interface and operation suggestions that take into account the emotional state of the user.

[0572] The flow of the specific processing in Example 2 will be explained using Figure 13.

[0573] Step 1:

[0574] The user launches the account integration application on their device and enters account information for multiple information processing devices or services they wish to integrate. This input includes authentication information such as username and password. The device validates the input and prepares the data in the appropriate format.

[0575] Step 2:

[0576] The terminal encrypts the account information entered by the user using the SSL / TLS protocol. The encrypted data is processed using an encryption algorithm to ensure its security and then sent to the server via a secure communication channel. In this step, the input is the user's raw data, and the output is encrypted data.

[0577] Step 3:

[0578] The server decrypts the encrypted data received from the terminal using a specific decryption key. It obtains authentication information for each service from the decrypted data and performs user authentication procedures for each information processing device or service. Once authentication is complete, the server is ready to begin integrating each account. In this step, the input is encrypted data, and the output is the decrypted user account information.

[0579] Step 4:

[0580] The server executes an algorithm that integrates the authentication information of multiple successful accounts and generates a common account. It associates existing account data in the database and centralizes duplicate entries. This integrated data is output as a new common account with shared access information.

[0581] Step 5:

[0582] The device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice. The acquired data is sent to an emotion engine in real time for analysis. This analysis identifies the user's emotional state, determining conditions such as stress and joy. The input is the captured sensor data, and the output is the analyzed emotional state.

[0583] Step 6:

[0584] The device dynamically adjusts the user interface based on the emotional state obtained from the emotion engine. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, it suggests simplifying menus and guides in the interface. The input is emotion analysis information, and the output is the adjusted interface display.

[0585] Step 7:

[0586] The server combines sentiment analysis results with the user's past operation history to generate recommendations for optimal actions. Using a generative AI model, it prioritizes and presents actions that were previously recommended in similar situations, supporting efficient user operation. The input is sentiment data and operation history, and the output is suggested actions.

[0587] (Application Example 2)

[0588] Next, we will explain application example 2. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server," and the headset-type terminal 314 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0589] Modern users must manage accounts for multiple services and devices individually, which creates a sense of cumbersomeness. Furthermore, users often experience stress navigating digital environments, resulting in a less-than-ideal user experience. Interface adjustments that appropriately consider emotions are needed.

[0590] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0591] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating accounts configured for different data processing devices, means for generating a unified common account, and means for analyzing the user's emotions and adjusting the user interface based on those emotions. This allows the user to centrally manage multiple accounts while enjoying a comfortable user environment adapted to their emotions.

[0592] A "data processing device" is an electronic device, including computers and servers, that can input, process, store, and output data.

[0593] An "account" is a collection of information used to manage permissions and settings for using digital services and devices.

[0594] "Integration" is the process of bringing together multiple individual accounts and pieces of information into a single, common system.

[0595] A "common account" is a unified user identification system that enables consistent access and management across multiple services.

[0596] "Authentication" is a procedure that verifies whether the information provided is correct and confirms that the user is legitimate.

[0597] An "emotional engine" is a technological device that analyzes and understands the emotional state of the user and optimizes system operation based on that information.

[0598] A "user interface" refers to the means, such as screens and input devices, that allow users to directly interact with a digital system.

[0599] This invention provides a system for a user to centrally manage multiple accounts for different data processing devices. This system consists of a user's smartphone or tablet and a server in the cloud.

[0600] The server first receives user account information associated with multiple different services. This information is encrypted by the terminal and sent to the server using a secure protocol. The server decrypts the retrieved account information, authenticates each service, and then integrates those accounts to create a common account. As a result, users can easily access each service using this common account.

[0601] The device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice. This data is input into an emotion engine, which analyzes the user's emotional state in real time. Specifically, it utilizes OpenCV facial recognition technology and the Google Cloud Speech-to-Text API to collect data for analyzing the user's emotions, and uses TensorFlow and PyTorch-based emotion analysis models for the analysis. The analyzed emotion data is used to dynamically adjust the user interface.

[0602] For example, if a user experiences stress while using an online shopping site, the system analyzes this information using an emotion engine and improves usability by simplifying navigation or prioritizing the display of previously purchased items. An example of a prompt using a generative AI model would be: "Detect from the user's facial image and voice that they are feeling happy, and recommend special sale information for related products."

[0603] Thus, the present invention enables users to efficiently utilize services using an integrated account while enjoying an optimal user experience that takes their emotions into consideration.

[0604] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 2 will be explained using Figure 14.

[0605] Step 1:

[0606] The user enters account information for multiple services using a device such as a smartphone. The device encrypts the entered information and sends it to the server via a secure protocol. In this step, the user's input data is output as encrypted data.

[0607] Step 2:

[0608] The server decrypts the received encrypted data and performs individual account authentication for each service. If authentication is successful, it integrates the account information for each service and processes it to generate a common account. The output of this step is the newly generated common account information.

[0609] Step 3:

[0610] The device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice in real time. Based on this data, an emotion engine analyzes the user's emotional state. Specifically, it uses OpenCV to analyze facial expressions and the Google Cloud Speech-to-Text API to analyze voice tone. In this step, the user's emotional data is output as the analysis result.

[0611] Step 4:

[0612] The server dynamically adjusts the user interface based on the emotional data it receives. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, it may provide simplified navigation or recommend products based on past purchase history. The output of this step is the adjusted user interface.

[0613] Step 5:

[0614] Depending on the user's next action, prompt messages are sent to the generating AI model, which continuously provides appropriate recommendations and interface improvements. In this step, the recommendation results generated by the AI ​​model are obtained as output.

[0615] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the headset terminal 314. In the headset terminal 314, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and display 343 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.

[0616] Data generation model 58 is a type of so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). One example of data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search) <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">Examples of generative AI include the following. 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 with inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images. The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference results in data formats such as audio data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.

[0617] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which specific processing is performed by the data processing device 12, but the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and specific processing may also be performed by the headset terminal 314.

[0618] [Fourth Embodiment]

[0619] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.

[0620] 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.

[0621] The data processing device 12 comprises a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication interface 26. The computer 22 is an example of a "computer" related to the technology of this disclosure. 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 (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).

[0622] 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.

[0623] The microphone 238 receives voice signals from the user 20 and receives instructions from the user 20. The microphone 238 captures the voice signals from the user 20, 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.

[0624] 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 (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) image sensor or a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image sensor, and captures images of the area around the user 20 (for example, an imaging range defined by a field of view equivalent to the width of a typical healthy person's field of vision).

[0625] 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.

[0626] 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. Furthermore, the robot 414's facial expressions can also be expressed by controlling the illumination state of the LEDs in its eyes.

[0627] 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.

[0628] The specific processing program 56 is an example of a "program" relating 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 in accordance with the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0629] The 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.

[0630] In robot 414, the processor 46 performs the reception output processing. The storage 50 stores the reception output program 60. The processor 46 reads the reception output program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read reception output program 60 on the RAM 48. The reception output processing is realized by the processor 46 operating as a control unit 46A according to the reception output program 60 executed on the RAM 48.

[0631] Next, the specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 will be described. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the robot 414 as the "terminal".

[0632] This invention provides a system for centrally managing accounts required by a user for multiple information processing devices or services. This system has the function of integrating multiple accounts created for different information processing devices and generating a common account.

[0633] The user first downloads the application using their device and then enters the account information they want to integrate through the interface. For example, the user provides the application with account information (username and password) for service A and account information for service B.

[0634] The terminal securely stores user input and transfers it to the server. Security is ensured by using encrypted communication protocols during the transfer. Upon receiving this information, the server authenticates the account information used for each service.

[0635] If authentication is successful, the server merges these accounts and creates a single common account. This common account consolidates information and access permissions for each corresponding service. After this, the server sends the details of the generated common account back to the terminal and notifies the user. As a result, the user can easily log in to services A and B in the future by using the common account information.

[0636] Furthermore, if a user creates an account for a new service C, they can also register additional information. In this case, the device sends the new account information to the server again. The server performs new account authentication and integrates it into the common account, thereby improving the user experience.

[0637] Thus, the invention improves convenience by providing an environment in which users can easily access multiple information processing devices and services using a single common account. Specifically, by managing SNS accounts and email accounts with a single common account, users can eliminate the need to log in individually.

[0638] The following describes the processing flow.

[0639] Step 1:

[0640] The user launches the account integration application on their device and enters the account information (username and password) for service A and service B to be integrated.

[0641] Step 2:

[0642] The terminal encrypts the account information entered by the user and sends it to the server using a secure communication protocol.

[0643] Step 3:

[0644] The server decrypts the received account information and sends authentication requests to the systems of Service A and Service B, respectively.

[0645] Step 4:

[0646] Each service's system returns the authentication result to the server. The server confirms that the authentication was successful.

[0647] Step 5:

[0648] If authentication is successful, the server will merge account A and account B and create a new common account. This involves combining the information from both accounts and assigning a unique identifier to the common account.

[0649] Step 6:

[0650] The server sends the generated common account information back to the terminal, notifying it of the common account's ID and access permissions.

[0651] Step 7:

[0652] From now on, users will be able to seamlessly log in to services A and B using their shared account information. The terminal will automatically use the shared account information and perform the login process as needed.

[0653] Step 8:

[0654] When a user attempts to add account information for a new service C, the user enters the new account information into the terminal. The terminal sends this information to the server and begins the process of integrating it into the existing common account.

[0655] Step 9:

[0656] The server authenticates the account information for service C and integrates it into the common account. Once the integration process is complete, it sends the updated information to the terminal. Users can then manage the new service C using the common account.

[0657] (Example 1)

[0658] Next, we will describe Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the robot 414 as the "terminal".

[0659] Managing separate identification information for each different information processing device and service is cumbersome for users, making it difficult to balance enhanced security with convenience. There is a need to solve this problem and provide an environment that centrally manages identification information, allowing for easy and secure access to multiple services.

[0660] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0661] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating multiple pieces of identification information, means for generating the integrated common identification information, means for performing authentication using the common identification information, means for transferring information using an encrypted communication method to ensure secure communication, and means for transmitting the common identification information to an information terminal to notify the user. This simplifies access to different information processing devices and services, and enables users to access multiple services securely and efficiently with a single common identification information.

[0662] An "information processing device" is a system that includes hardware and software for inputting, processing, storing, and outputting data.

[0663] "Identification information" refers to information such as usernames and passwords used when accessing information processing devices or services.

[0664] "Integrating" refers to the process of combining multiple pieces of identification information into a single, common format or structure.

[0665] A "common identification" is a single set of access credentials that are integrated across different information processing devices and services.

[0666] "Authentication" is the process of verifying whether the identification information provided by the user is legitimate.

[0667] An "encrypted communication method" is a communication technique that uses encryption technology to securely send and receive data.

[0668] An "information terminal" is a device, such as a computer, smartphone, or tablet, that a user operates to send and receive information.

[0669] This invention provides a system for providing an environment in which a user can centrally manage and easily and securely access identification information across multiple information processing devices or services. This system includes a dedicated application for terminals and multiple authentication and integration functions on the server side.

[0670] The user downloads and installs the application on their device. This application has the functionality to securely input, store, and transfer identification information from various information processing devices. The device encrypts the identification information entered by the user and sends it to the server using a secure communication protocol (e.g., HTTPS).

[0671] The server decrypts the encrypted identification information received from the terminal and performs authentication for each service and information processing device. After successful authentication, the server integrates this identification information to generate a common identification information. This common identification information is re-encrypted and sent to the terminal. The terminal notifies the user of this information, and the user can use this information to easily access each service and information processing device.

[0672] As a concrete example, users can input their identification information from different social networking services and email services into an application and integrate it. This allows users to access all services using a common identification information only once, improving efficiency.

[0673] An example of a prompt message would be: "We are considering a system where a user enters account information for services A and B that they want to integrate on their own device, and then sends this information to the server to generate a common account. Please list the features of this system and explain how it improves usability."

[0674] The flow of the specific processing in Example 1 will be explained using Figure 11.

[0675] Step 1:

[0676] The user downloads and installs a dedicated application on their device. After installation, they launch the application and perform the initial setup. This step requires the user's basic settings information (e.g., language settings) as input and provides a usable application environment as output.

[0677] Step 2:

[0678] The user uses the application to enter identification information (such as username and password) for multiple information processing services they wish to integrate. This identification information is required as input, and the terminal securely stores it. Specifically, the entered information is encrypted and temporarily stored in a local database.

[0679] Step 3:

[0680] The terminal sends the stored identification information to the server using an encrypted communication protocol. This step requires encrypted identification information as input and achieves secure data transmission to the server as output. Specifically, HTTPS communication is performed, and the data is sent over the network as data packets.

[0681] Step 4:

[0682] The server decrypts the received encrypted data and authenticates the user's identity for each service. The decrypted identity information is required as input, and the authentication result is obtained as output. Specifically, login attempts are made using the API of each service.

[0683] Step 5:

[0684] If authentication is successful, the server integrates the identification information and generates a common identification. This step requires authenticated identification as input and outputs the integrated common identification. In terms of specific data processing, each piece of information is combined and saved as a new record in the database.

[0685] Step 6:

[0686] The server re-encrypts the generated common identification information and sends it to the terminal. This step requires the integrated common identification information as input, and the terminal receives encrypted data as output. Specifically, the data is sent again using HTTPS.

[0687] Step 7:

[0688] The terminal decrypts encrypted data received from the server and notifies the user of a common identification information. Encrypted information is required as input, and the output is human-readable information displayed to the user. Specifically, after the decryption process, the result is displayed on the application's UI.

[0689] Step 8:

[0690] Users access information processing services using a common identification information. This common identification information is used as input, enabling authentication within the service. The output is an environment where users can log in to the service. For example, a user can access multiple services with a single entry.

[0691] (Application Example 1)

[0692] Next, we will explain Application Example 1. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the robot 414 as the "terminal".

[0693] The challenge is to eliminate the hassle of users having to individually manage multiple accounts across different information processing systems and electronic trading platforms, and to provide an environment where they can be managed centrally and more easily.

[0694] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 1 is realized by the following means.

[0695] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating a first user account and a second user account configured for different information processing systems, means for generating an integrated common user account, means for granting authorization to connect to the information processing system using the common user account, and means for integrating account information from different electronic transaction platforms and generating a centrally managed payment account. This allows users to access different services from a single common account and to easily make payments on multiple electronic transaction platforms.

[0696] An "information processing system" is a combination of hardware and software for collecting, processing, storing, and sharing data.

[0697] A "user account" is a profile that contains authentication information necessary to access information processing systems and services and to identify the user.

[0698] An "electronic trading platform" refers to a digital marketplace or payment system that enables online commercial transactions.

[0699] "Integrating" means combining multiple different elements or pieces of information and bringing them together into a single system or structure.

[0700] A "common user account" is an account that provides a unified authentication profile across multiple information processing systems and electronic trading platforms.

[0701] A "payment account" is an account that contains authentication information and settings for sending and receiving money on an electronic transaction platform.

[0702] "Approving" refers to the process of verifying the user's permissions and access based on the entered authentication information and granting access permission.

[0703] To implement this invention, the user must first download the application on their terminal and enter the user account information for each information processing system they wish to integrate. The terminal securely stores the data entered by the user and transmits it to the server using an encrypted communication protocol.

[0704] The server authenticates the received user account information against each information processing system and electronic trading platform, and integrates these accounts based on the successful authentication. This integration generates a common user account. This common user account is generated by the server and securely encrypted before being sent to the terminal. Users can then use this common user account to access different information processing systems and electronic trading platforms from a single, unified perspective.

[0705] As a concrete example, by having users enter their account information for social networking services, email services, and online marketplace payment systems into the application, these can be integrated into a single common user account, simplifying access and payment procedures.

[0706] By utilizing generative AI models, it is possible to analyze which services users use shared user accounts for and how they use them, and then make suggestions for optimizing those services.

[0707] An example of a specific prompt for a generative AI model is: "Please explain the convenience of this integrated payment account system. Please give an example of how it would be used in online shopping."

[0708] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 1 will be explained using Figure 12.

[0709] Step 1:

[0710] The user downloads an application to the device and enters account information for different information processing systems and electronic trading platforms. The device collects and securely stores the input data from the user. This input includes the username and password, which the device stores in its internal database.

[0711] Step 2:

[0712] The terminal encrypts the stored account information and sends it to the server. The terminal uses an encryption algorithm to transform the data and transfers it to the server over the network using a communication protocol (e.g., TLS / SSL). The output is the encrypted account information.

[0713] Step 3:

[0714] The server decrypts the received encrypted account information and authenticates it to each information processing system and electronic trading platform. The server obtains access rights to each platform API and verifies the legitimacy of the account information entered by the user. The input is encrypted information, and the output is the authentication status.

[0715] Step 4:

[0716] If authentication is successful, the server merges these accounts and creates a common user account. The server generates a new merged database entry based on the information of the different accounts. The input is the information of each account, and the output is the merged common account data.

[0717] Step 5:

[0718] The server encrypts the generated common user account and sends it to the terminal. The server uses the same encryption protocol to protect the data and returns it to the terminal over the network. The output is encrypted common account information.

[0719] Step 6:

[0720] The user's device receives shared user account information and notifies the user. The device decrypts the data and displays it through the user interface. The input is encrypted data, and the output is account information accessible to the user.

[0721] Step 7:

[0722] By using a common user account, users can access and operate different information processing systems and electronic transaction platforms from a single central location. This allows users to easily access multiple services with a single click and streamline payment processes.

[0723] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotions may be incorporated. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may use the emotion identification model 59 to estimate the user's emotions and perform identification processing using the user's emotions.

[0724] This invention provides a system that integrates an emotion engine to centrally manage accounts required by a user for different information processing devices or services. In addition to the function of integrating accounts created for different information processing devices and generating a common account, this system includes an emotion engine that recognizes the user's emotions and optimizes the system's operation based on that information.

[0725] The user operates the account integration application via their device and enters account information for multiple services they wish to integrate. For example, if the user provides account information for service X and service Y, the application receives and processes this information.

[0726] The terminal encrypts the user's input and sends it to the server using a secure protocol. After decrypting the account information, the server authenticates each service. Once authentication is complete, the accounts for service X and service Y are merged, and a new common account is created.

[0727] Meanwhile, the device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice, and an emotion engine analyzes the user's emotions. The emotion engine identifies the user's stress levels, joy, difficulty, etc., and adjusts the user interface based on this information. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the system can provide simpler operating procedures or guidance.

[0728] Based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, the server recommends the most appropriate account actions for the user's emotions. Furthermore, by referring to the user's action history in response to changes in emotions, it can prioritize suggesting actions that were preferred in similar emotional states in the past.

[0729] For example, if a user spends more time than necessary entering account information, the system will determine that the user is confused and, through its emotion engine, will highlight error messages and provide tutorials for similar cases. In this way, the system responds flexibly to the user's emotions, making the account management experience more comfortable.

[0730] This invention allows users to efficiently access multiple information processing devices and services using a unified, common account, and to receive emotionally sensitive support.

[0731] The following describes the processing flow.

[0732] Step 1:

[0733] The user launches the account integration application on their device and enters the account information for the services they want to integrate (for example, the usernames and passwords for service X and service Y).

[0734] Step 2:

[0735] The device encrypts the entered account information and sends it to the server via a secure communication channel.

[0736] Step 3:

[0737] The server decrypts the received encrypted data and performs authentication for each account for service X and service Y.

[0738] Step 4:

[0739] If authentication is successful, the server merges the accounts for service X and service Y into a common account and generates new identification information.

[0740] Step 5:

[0741] At the same time, the device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice, and sends them to the emotion engine.

[0742] Step 6:

[0743] The emotion engine analyzes the captured data to determine the user's emotional state (e.g., stress, joy, confusion).

[0744] Step 7:

[0745] Based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, the server returns a guide and support for common account operations that takes into account the user's state, providing the most appropriate feedback and interface adjustments.

[0746] Step 8:

[0747] Based on the analysis results, the device displays simple guides and support messages on the screen if the user is experiencing stress. It also provides a user interface that simplifies operation.

[0748] Step 9:

[0749] With this optimized support, users can continue their operations and access services X and Y smoothly.

[0750] Step 10:

[0751] If a user wishes to integrate a new service Z, they can do so by re-entering their account information and going through a similar process to add it to their shared account.

[0752] This process allows users to access multiple services in a single step while receiving personalized support that takes their emotions into consideration.

[0753] (Example 2)

[0754] Next, we will describe Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the robot 414 as the "terminal".

[0755] The existence of multiple accounts for different information processing devices and services presents a problem of cumbersome management for users. Furthermore, few systems consider users' emotional states, resulting in a lack of systems that can effectively support users when they experience stress or confusion.

[0756] The identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0757] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating a first account and a second account configured for different information processing devices, means for generating a combined common account, and a device for acquiring and analyzing the user's emotional state. This enables efficient management of multiple accounts and allows for the suggestion of optimal operations based on the user's emotional state.

[0758] An "information processing device" is a device used for inputting, processing, and outputting data, and includes devices such as computers and servers.

[0759] An "account" is a set of user identification information necessary to access a specific information processing device or service, and includes things like usernames and passwords.

[0760] A "common account" is a single access identifier created by integrating multiple accounts across different information processing devices and services.

[0761] "Emotional state" refers to the mental state determined through the analysis of the user's facial expressions and voice, and includes stress, joy, confusion, and other emotions.

[0762] An "emotion engine" is a software or hardware component used to analyze a user's emotional state.

[0763] "Operation history" refers to a record of operations performed by the user in the past, and this record is used to suggest future operations.

[0764] "Recommended actions" are suggestions for the next action that are considered optimal, based on the user's emotional state and operation history.

[0765] Based on this invention, users can centrally manage accounts they individually hold for different information processing devices and services via a terminal. First, the user uses an account integration application to enter account information for each service they wish to integrate into the terminal. This includes authentication information such as username and password.

[0766] The terminal securely encrypts the entered account information using the SSL / TLS protocol and sends it to the server. The server receives this information and decrypts the data using a specific encryption key. The server then authenticates the user with each service provider and integrates the successful account information to generate a common account. This common account allows the user to access each service uniformly.

[0767] In addition, the device has a built-in camera and microphone, which are used to capture the user's facial expressions and voice. This data is immediately analyzed by an emotion engine to determine the user's emotional state. For example, if the device determines that the user is stressed, it adjusts the user interface to display more intuitive and easier operating procedures. This reduces stress for the user and allows them to manage their account efficiently.

[0768] Furthermore, the server suggests the most suitable actions based on the user's emotional state and operation history. For example, based on the actions chosen in the past when the user was stressed, it can display recommended actions to users currently in a similar emotional state.

[0769] As a concrete example, the prompt message using a generative AI model is as follows:

[0770] Prompt example: "Please provide an example of an operation guide that the system will provide to the user based on the sentiment data entered by the user."

[0771] In this way, this invention not only provides integrated account management for multiple different information processing devices, but also realizes a flexible user interface and operation suggestions that take into account the emotional state of the user.

[0772] The flow of the specific processing in Example 2 will be explained using Figure 13.

[0773] Step 1:

[0774] The user launches the account integration application on their device and enters account information for multiple information processing devices or services they wish to integrate. This input includes authentication information such as username and password. The device validates the input and prepares the data in the appropriate format.

[0775] Step 2:

[0776] The terminal encrypts the account information entered by the user using the SSL / TLS protocol. The encrypted data is processed using an encryption algorithm to ensure its security and then sent to the server via a secure communication channel. In this step, the input is the user's raw data, and the output is encrypted data.

[0777] Step 3:

[0778] The server decrypts the encrypted data received from the terminal using a specific decryption key. It obtains authentication information for each service from the decrypted data and performs user authentication procedures for each information processing device or service. Once authentication is complete, the server is ready to begin integrating each account. In this step, the input is encrypted data, and the output is the decrypted user account information.

[0779] Step 4:

[0780] The server executes an algorithm that integrates the authentication information of multiple successful accounts and generates a common account. It associates existing account data in the database and centralizes duplicate entries. This integrated data is output as a new common account with shared access information.

[0781] Step 5:

[0782] The device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice. The acquired data is sent to an emotion engine in real time for analysis. This analysis identifies the user's emotional state, determining conditions such as stress and joy. The input is the captured sensor data, and the output is the analyzed emotional state.

[0783] Step 6:

[0784] The device dynamically adjusts the user interface based on the emotional state obtained from the emotion engine. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, it suggests simplifying menus and guides in the interface. The input is emotion analysis information, and the output is the adjusted interface display.

[0785] Step 7:

[0786] The server combines sentiment analysis results with the user's past operation history to generate recommendations for optimal actions. Using a generative AI model, it prioritizes and presents actions that were previously recommended in similar situations, supporting efficient user operation. The input is sentiment data and operation history, and the output is suggested actions.

[0787] (Application Example 2)

[0788] Next, we will explain application example 2. In the following explanation, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the robot 414 as the "terminal".

[0789] Modern users must manage accounts for multiple services and devices individually, which creates a sense of cumbersomeness. Furthermore, users often experience stress navigating digital environments, resulting in a less-than-ideal user experience. Interface adjustments that appropriately consider emotions are needed.

[0790] The specific processing performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0791] In this invention, the server includes means for integrating accounts configured for different data processing devices, means for generating a unified common account, and means for analyzing the user's emotions and adjusting the user interface based on those emotions. This allows the user to centrally manage multiple accounts while enjoying a comfortable user environment adapted to their emotions.

[0792] A "data processing device" is an electronic device, including computers and servers, that can input, process, store, and output data.

[0793] An "account" is a collection of information used to manage permissions and settings for using digital services and devices.

[0794] "Integration" is the process of bringing together multiple individual accounts and pieces of information into a single, common system.

[0795] A "common account" is a unified user identification system that enables consistent access and management across multiple services.

[0796] "Authentication" is a procedure that verifies whether the information provided is correct and confirms that the user is legitimate.

[0797] An "emotional engine" is a technological device that analyzes and understands the emotional state of the user and optimizes system operation based on that information.

[0798] A "user interface" refers to the means, such as screens and input devices, that allow users to directly interact with a digital system.

[0799] This invention provides a system for a user to centrally manage multiple accounts for different data processing devices. This system consists of a user's smartphone or tablet and a server in the cloud.

[0800] The server first receives user account information associated with multiple different services. This information is encrypted by the terminal and sent to the server using a secure protocol. The server decrypts the retrieved account information, authenticates each service, and then integrates those accounts to create a common account. As a result, users can easily access each service using this common account.

[0801] The device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice. This data is input into an emotion engine, which analyzes the user's emotional state in real time. Specifically, it utilizes OpenCV facial recognition technology and the Google Cloud Speech-to-Text API to collect data for analyzing the user's emotions, and uses TensorFlow and PyTorch-based emotion analysis models for the analysis. The analyzed emotion data is used to dynamically adjust the user interface.

[0802] For example, if a user experiences stress while using an online shopping site, the system analyzes this information using an emotion engine and improves usability by simplifying navigation or prioritizing the display of previously purchased items. An example of a prompt using a generative AI model would be: "Detect from the user's facial image and voice that they are feeling happy, and recommend special sale information for related products."

[0803] Thus, the present invention enables users to efficiently utilize services using an integrated account while enjoying an optimal user experience that takes their emotions into consideration.

[0804] The flow of a specific process in Application Example 2 will be explained using Figure 14.

[0805] Step 1:

[0806] The user enters account information for multiple services using a device such as a smartphone. The device encrypts the entered information and sends it to the server via a secure protocol. In this step, the user's input data is output as encrypted data.

[0807] Step 2:

[0808] The server decrypts the received encrypted data and performs individual account authentication for each service. If authentication is successful, it integrates the account information for each service and processes it to generate a common account. The output of this step is the newly generated common account information.

[0809] Step 3:

[0810] The device uses its built-in camera and microphone to capture the user's facial expressions and voice in real time. Based on this data, an emotion engine analyzes the user's emotional state. Specifically, it uses OpenCV to analyze facial expressions and the Google Cloud Speech-to-Text API to analyze voice tone. In this step, the user's emotional data is output as the analysis result.

[0811] Step 4:

[0812] The server dynamically adjusts the user interface based on the emotional data it receives. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, it may provide simplified navigation or recommend products based on past purchase history. The output of this step is the adjusted user interface.

[0813] Step 5:

[0814] Depending on the user's next action, prompt messages are sent to the generating AI model, which continuously provides appropriate recommendations and interface improvements. In this step, the recommendation results generated by the AI ​​model are obtained as output.

[0815] 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.

[0816] Data generation model 58 is a type of so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). One example of data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search) <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">Examples of generative AI include the following. 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 with inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images. The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference results in data formats such as audio data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.

[0817] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which specific processing is performed by the data processing device 12, but the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and the specific processing may also be performed by the robot 414.

[0818] 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.

[0819] Figure 9 shows an 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.

[0820] 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.

[0821] 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.

[0822] 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, motorcycles, etc., 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, for example, based 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.

[0823] 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."

[0824] 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.

[0825] The above description primarily focuses on the functions of the data processing device 12 in relation to this disclosure. However, the system related to this disclosure is not necessarily implemented on a server. The system related to this disclosure may be implemented as a general information processing system. This disclosure may be implemented, for example, as a software program that runs on a personal computer or as an application that runs on a smartphone. The method related to this disclosure may be provided to users in SaaS (Software as a Service) format.

[0826] 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 of the specific process may be performed by multiple computers, including computer 22. For example, a data generation model 58 may be provided in an external device of the data processing device 12, and the external device may generate data according to the input data.

[0827] 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.

[0828] 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.

[0829] 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.

[0830] 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.

[0831] 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.

[0832] 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.

[0833] 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.

[0834] 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 the like 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.
