[0028] (Example of form 1) The recruitment support system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that provides a bias-free recruitment process using generative AI. This recruitment support system provides comprehensive support from document screening to interviews and job offers, and realizes objective and fair recruitment based on the skills and aptitudes of candidates. This mechanism allows companies to build a more innovative and sustainable business environment by emphasizing diversity and recruiting excellent talent. First, conventional interviews and document screenings lack objectivity, making fair recruitment difficult. For example, the subjectivity and preconceptions of interviewers can influence the process, causing excellent talent to be overlooked. In contrast, the present invention uses generative AI to eliminate bias and perform objective evaluations based on the skills and aptitudes of candidates. Specifically, the generative AI first analyzes the candidate's documents and evaluates their skills and experience. For example, it analyzes the contents of resumes and work histories to evaluate the candidate's skill set and past performance. At this time, the generative AI objectively evaluates the candidate's skills and aptitudes based on data it has learned in advance. Next, the generative AI supports the interview process. For example, the generative AI generates interview questions and analyzes the candidate's answers to evaluate their skills and aptitudes. Furthermore, the generative AI can analyze recordings and videos of interviews, evaluating candidates' facial expressions and tone of voice to provide a more detailed assessment. It can also support the hiring process. For example, the generative AI can make hiring decisions based on the candidate's evaluation. In this process, the AI evaluates not only the candidate's skills and aptitude, but also whether they fit the company's needs and culture. By using this generative AI, bias can be eliminated, enabling objective and fair hiring based on candidates' skills and aptitude. This allows companies to build a more innovative and sustainable business environment by emphasizing diversity and hiring top talent. For example, when a company hires engineers for a new project, the generative AI analyzes the candidate's application materials to evaluate their skills and experience. Next, the generative AI generates interview questions and analyzes the candidate's answers to assess their skills and aptitude. Finally, the generative AI makes hiring decisions based on the candidate's evaluation. In this way, bias can be eliminated, enabling objective and fair hiring.This allows the recruitment support system to eliminate bias and achieve objective and fair recruitment based on candidates' skills and aptitudes.
[0029] The recruitment support system according to this embodiment comprises a document analysis unit, an interview support unit, an answer analysis unit, and a job offer decision unit. The document analysis unit analyzes the candidate's documents.

It can also use video analysis technology to evaluate the candidate's facial expressions. In addition, the interview support unit can use emotion analysis technology to evaluate the candidate's emotions. For example, the interview support unit can analyze the candidate's tone of voice and evaluate their emotions. Next, the response analysis unit analyzes the candidate's answers based on the questions generated by the interview support unit. The response analysis unit analyzes the candidate's answers using generation AI. For example, the response analysis unit analyzes the candidate's answers using text analysis technology. It can also use emotion analysis technology to evaluate the candidate's emotions. Furthermore, the response analysis unit can use content consistency evaluation technology to evaluate the consistency of the candidate's answers. For example, the response analysis unit analyzes the candidate's answers and evaluates their skills and aptitude. Finally, the job offer decision unit makes a job offer decision based on the results analyzed by the response analysis unit. The hiring decision department uses a generation AI to make hiring decisions. For example, the hiring decision department evaluates not only the candidate's skills and aptitude, but also whether they are a good fit for the company's needs and culture.The hiring decision unit can also evaluate candidates using a scoring system. For example, the hiring decision unit makes hiring decisions based on the candidate's skills and aptitudes. As a result, the hiring support system according to this embodiment can eliminate bias and achieve objective and fair hiring based on the candidate's skills and aptitudes.
[0030] The Document Analysis Department analyzes candidates' documents. For example, it analyzes the contents of resumes and work histories to evaluate candidates' skill sets and past achievements. Specifically, the Document Analysis Department uses generative AI to objectively evaluate candidates' skills and aptitudes. The generative AI utilizes natural language processing technology to extract text data from candidates' documents and uses text mining technology to analyze candidates' skills and experience in detail. For example, it analyzes the job descriptions and project details listed in resumes to evaluate what skills candidates possess and what results they have achieved. It can also use keyword extraction technology to identify key skills and achievements of candidates. This allows the Document Analysis Department to accurately grasp candidates' skill sets and evaluate them in comparison to the skills required by the company. Furthermore, it can also use document classification technology to categorize and evaluate candidates' documents.

Using voice analysis technology, it evaluates the candidate's tone of voice and determines their level of nervousness and confidence. Furthermore, using video analysis technology, it can evaluate the candidate's facial expressions and determine emotional changes and sincerity. It can also evaluate the candidate's emotions using emotion analysis technology. For example, by analyzing the candidate's tone of voice and evaluating their emotions, it can understand what emotions the candidate is experiencing. This allows the Interview Support Department to evaluate not only the candidate's skills and aptitudes, but also their emotions and attitudes, enabling a more comprehensive judgment.
[0032] The Response Analysis Unit analyzes candidates' responses based on questions generated by the Interview Support Unit. The Response Analysis Unit uses a generative AI to analyze candidates' responses. Specifically, the generative AI uses text analysis technology to analyze candidates' responses in detail. For example, it extracts keywords and phrases from candidates' responses and evaluates how well they match the skills and aptitudes sought by the company. It can also evaluate candidates' emotions using sentiment analysis technology. For example, it judges candidates' emotions and attitudes from the choice of words and expressions used in their responses. Furthermore, it can evaluate the consistency of candidates' responses using content consistency evaluation technology. For example, it checks whether candidates provide consistent answers to different questions and whether there are any contradictions. This allows the Response Analysis Unit to evaluate not only candidates' skills and aptitudes, but also the consistency and reliability of their responses, enabling more accurate judgments.
[0033] The hiring decision unit makes hiring decisions based on the results analyzed by the response analysis unit. The hiring decision unit uses generative AI to make hiring decisions. Specifically, the generative AI evaluates not only the candidate's skills and aptitude, but also whether they are a good fit for the company's needs and culture. For example, it evaluates whether the candidate's skill set matches the skills the company is looking for, and whether the candidate's values and behaviors are compatible with the company's culture. The hiring decision unit can also evaluate candidates using a scoring system. For example, it assigns scores to each item based on the candidate's skills and aptitude and makes an overall evaluation. This allows the hiring decision unit to objectively evaluate the candidate's skills and aptitude and select the candidate who is best suited to the company's needs. Furthermore, the hiring decision unit can also make hiring decisions based on past hiring data and the company's success stories. For example, it can analyze data on candidates who have been hired in the past, identify common characteristics of successful candidates, and make hiring decisions based on those. This allows the hiring decision unit to make more accurate hiring decisions and contribute to the company's success.

[0094] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.
[0095] The recruitment support system can not only evaluate candidates' skills and aptitudes, but also assess their learning ability. For example, the document analysis unit can analyze a candidate's past learning history and self-study efforts to evaluate their learning ability. The interview support unit can generate questions that assess how candidates understand and apply new information. Furthermore, the response analysis unit can evaluate the candidate's learning ability from their answers, and the offer decision unit can make a decision on whether to offer a position considering this learning ability. In this way, the recruitment support system can assess a candidate's learning ability and determine their future growth potential.

In this way, the recruitment support system can identify individuals with innovative ideas by evaluating candidates' creativity.
[0100] The recruitment support system can estimate a candidate's emotions and provide interview feedback based on those emotions. For example, if a candidate is nervous, the interview support system can provide feedback to help them relax. It can also provide feedback to reinforce a candidate's confidence if they are confident. Furthermore, if a candidate is stressed, the interview support system can provide feedback to reduce that stress. This allows the interview support system to improve the quality of interviews by providing appropriate feedback based on the candidate's emotions.
[0101] The recruitment support system can estimate a candidate's emotions and adjust the interview process based on those estimates. For example, if the interview support system perceives a candidate as nervous, it will slow down the interview to help them relax. Conversely, if the candidate is confident, it can proceed more smoothly. Furthermore, if the interview support system perceives a candidate as stressed, it can adjust the interview process to alleviate that stress. This allows the interview support system to conduct more effective interviews by adjusting the process based on the candidate's emotions.

For example, if a candidate is nervous, the interview support system can adjust the evaluation criteria to account for their performance in a relaxed state. It can also adjust the criteria based on a candidate's confidence if they are confident. Furthermore, if a candidate is stressed, the system can adjust the criteria to mitigate the effects of that stress. This allows the interview support system to provide more accurate evaluations by adjusting criteria based on the candidate's emotions.
[0103] The recruitment support system can estimate a candidate's emotions and adjust the way they notify the candidate of their job offer based on those emotions. For example, if a candidate is feeling nervous, the system will carefully notify them of the offer to help them relax. It can also respect a candidate's confidence when notifying them of their job offer. Furthermore, if a candidate is feeling stressed, the system can adjust the notification method to alleviate that stress. This allows the system to provide more appropriate job offers by adjusting the notification method based on the candidate's emotions.
[0104] The recruitment support system can estimate a candidate's emotions and provide follow-up support after an offer is made based on those estimated emotions. For example, if a candidate is nervous, the system can provide follow-up support to help them relax. If a candidate is confident, the system can also provide follow-up support to reinforce that confidence. Furthermore, if a candidate is stressed, the system can provide follow-up support to help reduce that stress. This allows the system to provide more appropriate support by tailoring post-offer follow-up to the candidate's emotions.

[0133] 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.

[0134] 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.
[0135] 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.
[0136] 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.
[0137] 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.
[0138] 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.).
[0139] 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.
[0140] 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.

[0143] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.
[0144] 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.

The microphone 238, speaker 240, camera 42, and controlled object 443 are also connected to the bus 52.
[0147] 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.
[0148] 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).
[0149] 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.
[0150] 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.
[0151] 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.
[0152] 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.
[0153] 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.
[0154] 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.
[0155] 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.).
[0156] 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.
[0157] 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.
[0158] 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.
[0159] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the document analysis unit, interview support unit, answer analysis unit, and job offer decision unit, is implemented by, for example, at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the document analysis unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and analyzes the candidate's documents. The interview support unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and generates interview questions. The answer analysis unit is implemented by, for example, the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and analyzes the candidate's answers. The job offer decision unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and makes a decision on whether to offer a job. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be changed in various ways.
[0160] 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.
[0161] 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.
[0162] 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.
[0163] 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.
[0164] 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.
[0165] 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."
[0166] 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.
[0167] 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.
[0168] 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.
[0169] 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.
[0170] 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.
[0171] 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.
[0172] 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.
[0173] 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.
[0174] 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.
[0175] 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.
[0176] 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.
