The analysis unit can also evaluate the risk of AGE accumulation based on cooking methods. For example, the analysis unit evaluates that there is a high risk of AGE accumulation if high-temperature cooking methods such as frying and grilling are frequent. Specifically, the AI ​​model extracts major nutrients such as protein, lipids, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals from meal data and calculates their respective contents. Furthermore, it analyzes data on cooking methods and evaluates the risk of AGE generation due to high-temperature cooking. For example, it indicates that the risk of AGE generation increases if fried or grilled foods are cooked frequently. The analysis unit can also analyze long-term nutritional balance and dietary trends based on the user's past meal data. This generates basic data to identify areas for improvement and risk factors in the user's diet and provide more effective advice. Furthermore, the analysis unit can improve the accuracy of its analysis results by utilizing external nutrition databases and expert knowledge. This allows the analysis unit to analyze users' dietary data in detail and accurately, providing information that forms the basis of health assessments.

[0032] The evaluation unit assesses the risk of AGE accumulation based on the results obtained by the analysis unit. For example, the evaluation unit quantifies the risk of AGE accumulation and provides it to the user. The evaluation unit can use AI to assess the risk of AGE accumulation. For example, the evaluation unit receives data on nutrients and cooking methods obtained by the analysis unit as input and calculates the risk of AGE accumulation. Specifically, the evaluation unit uses an AI model to quantify the risk of AGE formation based on the nutrient balance and cooking method of each meal. For example, if fried or grilled foods are consumed frequently, the risk of AGE formation is assessed as high. In addition, the evaluation unit can perform a more personalized risk assessment by considering individual factors such as the user's age, gender, and health status. This allows users to receive a specific risk assessment tailored to their own health status. Furthermore, the evaluation unit can analyze long-term risk fluctuations based on past data and evaluate the effectiveness of improvements to the user's diet. For example, it can analyze dietary data from the past few months and evaluate how the risk of AGE formation has changed. This allows users to confirm the effectiveness of improvements to their diet and motivate them to make further improvements. The evaluation unit displays these evaluation results in a visually easy-to-understand format, allowing users to intuitively understand their own health status. For example, risk assessments can be displayed using graphs and charts, enabling users to grasp the level and fluctuations of risk at a glance. This allows the evaluation unit to provide users with concrete and easy-to-understand risk assessments, supporting their health management.

[0033] The service provider provides optimal nutritional balance and dietary advice based on the results evaluated by the evaluation department.

[0098] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.

[0099] The reception desk can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the timing of meal data entry based on those emotions. For example, if a user is feeling stressed, it can send a notification prompting them to enter meal data during a time when they can relax. If a user is busy, it can also provide a simple input form that can be completed quickly. This allows for more appropriate data entry by adjusting the timing of meal data entry according to the user's emotions.

[0100] The analysis unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the presentation of the analysis based on those emotions. For example, if the user is stressed, it can provide simple and visually easy-to-understand analysis results. Conversely, if the user is relaxed, it can provide detailed analysis results. By adjusting the presentation of the analysis according to the user's emotions, it is possible to provide analysis results that are easier to understand.

[0101] The evaluation unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the evaluation criteria based on those emotions. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, strict evaluation criteria can be relaxed. Conversely, if the user is relaxed, detailed evaluation criteria can be applied. This allows for more accurate evaluations by adjusting the evaluation criteria according to the user's emotions.

[0102] The service provider can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the way advice is presented based on those emotions. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, it will provide advice in gentle language. Conversely, if the user is relaxed, it can provide more detailed advice. By adjusting the way advice is presented according to the user's emotions, it can provide more appropriate advice.

[0103] The service provider can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the length of the advice based on those emotions. For example, if the user is in a hurry, it can provide short, concise advice. Conversely, if the user is relaxed, it can provide more detailed advice. By adjusting the length of the advice according to the user's emotions, it can provide more appropriate advice.

[0104] The reception desk can analyze a user's past meal data entry history and select the optimal input method. For example, it can prioritize suggesting input methods that the user has frequently used in the past (such as voice input or text input). It can also send reminders for times when the user tends to forget to enter data in the past. In this way, by analyzing the user's past input history, the system can select the optimal input method and improve input efficiency.

[0105] The reception desk can filter meal data input based on the user's current health status and lifestyle. For example, if a user has a specific health condition (e.g., diabetes), it can prompt them to input meal data appropriate for that condition. It can also prompt users to input appropriate meal data based on their lifestyle (e.g., vegetarian). By filtering data based on the user's health status and lifestyle, more appropriate meal data can be entered.

[0106] The analysis unit can adjust the level of detail of the analysis based on the importance of each meal. For example, a detailed analysis is performed for important meals (e.g., breakfast, dinner). A simpler analysis can be performed for snacks or light meals. This allows for more efficient analysis by adjusting the level of detail based on the importance of each meal.

[0107] The evaluation unit can improve the accuracy of its evaluations by considering the interrelationships between meals. For example, it can evaluate meals that use the same ingredients, or meals that use the same cooking method. By considering the interrelationships between meals, the accuracy of the evaluation is improved.

[0108] The service provider can prioritize advice based on when meals are submitted. For example, they can provide advice based on the most recent meal data. They can also provide advice based on meal data for specific time periods (e.g., breakfast, dinner). This allows for more efficient advice by prioritizing it based on when meals are submitted.

[0109] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 2.

[0110] Step 1: The reception desk allows users to input their daily meal data. Users can manually input meal data such as the contents and cooking methods of breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They can also input meal data using a smartphone or personal computer. Furthermore, it is possible to input meal data using voice input or image recognition technology. For example, a user can input the details of their meal by voice, and this will be converted into text data using voice recognition technology. Alternatively, a user can take a picture of their meal, and the contents will be analyzed using image recognition technology. Step 2: The analysis unit analyzes the data received by the reception unit. The analysis unit evaluates the nutrients and cooking methods of each meal. It can use AI to analyze meal data and calculate the nutrient content. It also evaluates the risk of AGE accumulation based on the cooking method. For example, if there is a lot of high-temperature cooking such as frying or grilling, it is evaluated as having a high risk of AGE accumulation. Step 3: The evaluation unit assesses the risk of AGE accumulation based on the results obtained by the analysis unit. The evaluation unit quantifies the risk of AGE accumulation and provides it to the user. Using AI, it receives data on nutrients and cooking methods obtained by the analysis unit as input and calculates the risk of AGE accumulation. Step 4: The supply department provides advice on optimal nutritional balance and dietary habits based on the results evaluated by the evaluation department. For example, if there is a high risk of AGE accumulation, they will advise increasing low-temperature cooking and raw food consumption. If there is a deficiency in a specific nutrient, they will suggest consuming foods rich in that nutrient.

[0136] 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, which captures images of the area around the user (for example, an imaging range defined by a field of view equivalent to the field of vision of a typical healthy person).

[0137] 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.

[0138] 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.

[0139] The processor 28 reads a specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 acting as a specific processing unit 290 according to the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0140] Storage 32 stores the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate the user's emotions using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotions. The emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59 performs various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotions, including but not limited to these examples. Furthermore, emotion estimation and prediction also include, for example, emotion analysis.

[0141] In the headset terminal 314, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific program 60. The processor 46 reads the specific program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read specific program 60 on the RAM 48. The specific processing is realized by the processor 46 acting as a control unit 46A according to the specific program 60 executed on the RAM 48. The headset terminal 314 also has a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59, similar to the data generation model and emotion identification model 59, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.

[0142] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 obtains processing results (such as prediction results) using the data generation model 58 by communicating with the server device that has the data generation model 58. Also, the data processing device 12 may be a server device or a terminal device owned by the user (for example, a mobile phone, robot, home appliance, etc.).

[0143] 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.

[0144] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI. An example of a data generation model 58 is a generative AI such as ChatGPT. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 is input with prompts containing instructions, and inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images (e.g., still image data or video data). The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference result in one or more data formats such as audio data, text data, and image data. The data generation model 58 includes, for example, text generation AI, image generation AI, and multimodal generation AI. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization. The specific processing unit 290 performs the specific processing described above using the data generation model 58. The data generation model 58 may be a fine-tuned model that outputs inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions, in which case the data generation model 58 can output inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions. In the data processing device 12, etc., there are multiple types of data generation models 58, and the data generation model 58 includes AI other than generative AI. AI other than generative AI includes, for example, linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines (SVM), k-means clustering, convolutional neural networks (CNN), recurrent neural networks (RNN), generative adversarial networks (GAN), or naive Bayes, and can perform various processes, but is not limited to these examples. Also, the AI ​​may be an AI agent. Furthermore, when the processing of each part described above is performed by the AI, the processing may be performed by the AI ​​in part or in whole, but is not limited to this example. Also, processing performed by an AI including a generative AI may be replaced by rule-based processing, and rule-based processing may be replaced by processing performed by an AI including a generative AI.

The processing by the data processing system 310 is performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314, but may also be performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314. In addition, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the headset terminal 314 or an external device, and the headset terminal 314 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device.

[0146] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the reception unit, analysis unit, evaluation unit, and provision unit, is implemented by, for example, at least one of the headset terminal 314 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the reception unit is implemented by the microphone 238 of the headset terminal 314, where the user inputs daily meal data by voice. The analysis unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12, which analyzes the meal data and evaluates the nutrients and cooking methods of each meal. The evaluation unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12, which evaluates the risk of AGE accumulation. The provision unit is implemented by, for example, the speaker 240 of the headset terminal 314, which provides advice on optimal nutritional balance and dietary habits. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above, and various changes are possible.

[0147] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.

[0148] 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.

[0149] The data processing device 12 comprises a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication interface 26. The computer 22 comprises a processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32. The processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. The database 24 and the communication interface 26 are also connected to the bus 34. The communication interface 26 is connected to a network 54. An example of the network 54 is a WAN and / or LAN.

[0150] 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.

[0151] The microphone 238 receives voice signals from the user and accepts instructions from the user. The microphone 238 captures the voice signals from the user, converts the captured voice into audio data, and outputs it to the processor 46. The speaker 240 outputs audio according to the instructions from the processor 46.

[0152] Camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system including a lens, aperture, and shutter, and an image sensor such as a CMOS image sensor or CCD image sensor, which captures images of the area around the user (for example, an imaging range defined by a field of view equivalent to the field of vision of a typical healthy person).

[0153] 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.

[0154] The controlled object 443 includes a display device, LEDs in the eyes, and motors that drive the arms, hands, and feet. The posture and gestures of the robot 414 are controlled by controlling the motors of the arms, hands, and feet. Some of the robot 414's emotions can be expressed by controlling these motors. The robot 414's facial expressions can also be expressed by controlling the illumination state of the LEDs in its eyes.

[0155] 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.

[0156] The processor 28 reads a specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 acting as a specific processing unit 290 according to the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0157] Storage 32 stores the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate the user's emotions using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotions. The emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59 performs various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotions, including but not limited to these examples. Furthermore, emotion estimation and prediction also include, for example, emotion analysis.

[0158] In robot 414, specific processing is performed by processor 46. A specific program 60 is stored in storage 50. Processor 46 reads the specific program 60 from storage 50 and executes it on RAM 48. The specific processing is achieved by processor 46 acting as a control unit 46A according to the specific program 60 executed on RAM 48. Robot 414 also has data generation model 58 and emotion identification model 59, similar to those of the robot, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.

[0159] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 obtains processing results (such as prediction results) using the data generation model 58 by communicating with the server device that has the data generation model 58. Also, the data processing device 12 may be a server device or a terminal device owned by the user (for example, a mobile phone, robot, home appliance, etc.).

[0160] 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.

[0161] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI. An example of a data generation model 58 is a generative AI such as ChatGPT. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 is input with prompts containing instructions, and inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images (e.g., still image data or video data). The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference result in one or more data formats such as audio data, text data, and image data. The data generation model 58 includes, for example, text generation AI, image generation AI, and multimodal generation AI. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization. The specific processing unit 290 performs the specific processing described above using the data generation model 58. The data generation model 58 may be a fine-tuned model that outputs inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions, in which case the data generation model 58 can output inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions. In the data processing device 12, etc., there are multiple types of data generation models 58, and the data generation model 58 includes AI other than generative AI. AI other than generative AI includes, for example, linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines (SVM), k-means clustering, convolutional neural networks (CNN), recurrent neural networks (RNN), generative adversarial networks (GAN), or naive Bayes, and can perform various processes, but is not limited to these examples. Also, the AI ​​may be an AI agent. Furthermore, when the processing of each part described above is performed by the AI, the processing may be performed by the AI ​​in part or in whole, but is not limited to this example. Also, processing performed by an AI including a generative AI may be replaced by rule-based processing, and rule-based processing may be replaced by processing performed by an AI including a generative AI.

[0162] The data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. The processing by the data processing system 410 is performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the robot 414, but it may also be performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the robot 414. In addition, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the robot 414 or an external device, and the robot 414 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device.

[0163] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the reception unit, analysis unit, evaluation unit, and provision unit, is implemented by, for example, at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the reception unit is implemented by the microphone 238 of the robot 414, where the user inputs daily meal data by voice. The analysis unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12, which analyzes the meal data and evaluates the nutrients and cooking methods of each meal. The evaluation unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12, which evaluates the risk of AGE accumulation. The provision unit is implemented by, for example, the speaker 240 of the robot 414, which provides advice on optimal nutritional balance and dietary habits. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible.

[0164] 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.

[0165] Figure 9 shows the emotion map 400, in which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. The closer to the center of the concentric circles, the more primitive the emotions are located. Further out of the concentric circles, emotions representing states and actions arising from mental states are located. Emotion is a concept that includes feelings and mental states. On the left side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are located. On the right side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally induced by situational judgment are located. Above and below the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are located. In addition, the emotion of "pleasure" is located on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "displeasure" is located on the lower side. Thus, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure in which emotions arise, and emotions that are likely to occur simultaneously are mapped close together.

[0166] 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.

[0167] 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.

[0168] Here, human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. Similarly, in robots, cars, and motorcycles, emotions can be created based on various balances, such as posture and battery level. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. The emotion map can be generated based, for example, on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on a system for analyzing brain physiological signals of speech emotion recognition and emotion, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "response," where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "situation," where situational awareness is dominant.

[0169] 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."

[0170] 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.

[0171] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which a specific process is performed by a single computer 22. However, the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and a distributed processing method for the specific process may be used, which includes computer 22 and multiple other computers.

[0172] 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.

[0173] 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.

[0174] 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.

[0175] 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.

[0176] 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.

[0177] 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.

[0178] 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.

[0179] Furthermore, although the above-described examples were divided into four embodiments, some or all of these embodiments may be combined. Also, the smart device 14, smart glasses 214, headset terminal 314, and robot 414 are just examples, and they may be combined, or other devices may be used. Also, although the above-described examples were divided into two embodiments, Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, these may be combined.

[0180] The descriptions and illustrations presented above are detailed explanations of the technical aspects of this disclosure and are merely examples of the technical aspects. For example, the above descriptions of the structure, function, operation, and effect are examples of the structure, function, operation, and effect of the technical aspects of this disclosure. Therefore, it goes without saying that you may delete unnecessary parts, add new elements, or replace elements in the descriptions and illustrations presented above, as long as you do not deviate from the essence of the technical aspects of this disclosure. Furthermore, in order to avoid confusion and facilitate understanding of the technical aspects of this disclosure, explanations of common technical knowledge and other things that do not require special explanation to enable the implementation of the technical aspects of this disclosure have been omitted from the descriptions and illustrations presented above.
