[0016] [First Embodiment] FIG. 1 shows an example of the configuration of a data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment.
[0017] As shown in FIG. 1, the data processing system 10 includes a data processing device 12 and a smart device 14. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.
[0018] The data processing device 12 includes a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication I / F 26. The computer 22 includes a processor 28, a RAM 30, and a storage 32. The processor 28, the RAM 30, and the storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. Also, the database 24 and the communication I / F 26 are connected to the bus 34. The communication I / F 26 is connected to a network 54. Examples of the network 54 include a WAN (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).
[0019] The smart device 14 comprises a computer 36, a receiving 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 receiving device 38, output device 40, and camera 42 are also connected to the bus 52.
[0020] The reception device 38 is equipped with a touch panel 38A and a microphone 38B, and accepts user input. The touch panel 38A accepts user input via touch by detecting contact with an object (e.g., a pen or finger). The microphone 38B accepts user input via voice 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 unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 (see Figure 2) acquires the data indicating the user input.
[0021] The output device 40 includes a display 40A and a speaker 40B, and presents data to the user by outputting the data in a form perceptible to the user (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.
[0022] 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.
[0023] Figure 2 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart device 14.
[0024] As shown in Figure 2, in the data processing device 12, a specific processing is performed by the processor 28. A specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32. The specific processing program 56 is an example of a "program" related to the technology of this disclosure. The processor 28 reads the specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 according to the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.
[0025] Storage 32 stores the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate the user's emotions using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotions. The emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59 performs various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotions, including but not limited to these examples. Furthermore, emotion estimation and prediction also include, for example, emotion analysis.
[0026] In the smart device 14, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific processing program 60. The specific processing program 60 is used in conjunction with the specific processing program 56 by the data processing system 10. The processor 46 reads the specific processing program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read specific processing program 60 on the RAM 48.

[0027] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device (e.g., a generation server) 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 having the data generation model 58. The data processing device 12 may also be a server device or a terminal device owned by a user (e.g., a mobile phone, robot, home appliance, etc.). Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.
[0028] (Example of form 1) The hobby-focused AI agent system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system designed to enrich users' leisure time. This system provides an AI agent that supports DIY furniture projects and creative activities using 3D printers. For example, when a user undertakes a DIY furniture project, they instruct the AI agent to "make a bookshelf." The AI agent creates a design drawing based on the size of the lumber the user purchases and provides a list of necessary screws and tools. This allows the user to easily assemble the furniture according to the design drawing. It is similar to the instruction manual for IKEA's assembly furniture. Next, when a user engages in creative activities using a 3D printer, they instruct the AI agent to "want a fighter jet object." The AI agent performs 3D modeling based on the user's image and outputs the object in cooperation with the 3D printer. This allows the user to easily output what they want with a 3D printer without needing to master modeling software. Through this mechanism, a hobby-focused AI agent can support users' DIY furniture projects and creative activities using 3D printers, enriching their leisure time. Users can achieve professional-level results simply by consulting with the AI agent. This allows hobby-focused AI agent systems to enrich users' leisure time and support their creative activities.
[0029] The hobby-specific AI agent system according to this embodiment comprises a reception unit, a generation unit, a provision unit, and a cooperation unit. The reception unit receives user instructions. User instructions include, but are not limited to, voice instructions, text instructions, and gesture instructions. The reception unit can receive voice instructions from the user using, for example, voice recognition technology. The reception unit can also receive text instructions from the user using a text input interface. Furthermore, the reception unit can also receive gesture instructions from the user using gesture recognition technology. The generation unit performs design drawings and 3D models based on the instructions received by the reception unit. The generation unit generates design drawings and 3D models in, for example, CAD data or STL files. For example, if the user instructs "I want to build a bookshelf," the generation unit creates a design drawing based on the size of the lumber the user will purchase. For example, if the user instructs "I want a fighter jet object," the generation unit performs 3D modeling based on the user's image. Some or all of the above-described processes in the generation unit may be performed using, for example, a generation AI, or without using a generation AI. For example, the generation unit inputs user instructions as prompts to the generation AI, which then generates blueprints and 3D models. The supply unit provides the information generated by the generation unit. The supply unit provides information in the form of, for example, a preview of the blueprint or a display of the 3D model. The supply unit provides the user with a list of necessary screws and tools. The supply unit displays a preview of the blueprint so that the user can review it. The supply unit also displays the 3D model so that the user can review it. Some or all of the above processing in the supply unit may be performed using the generation AI, or without using the generation AI. For example, the supply unit inputs the generated blueprints and 3D models as prompts to the generation AI, which then provides the information. The collaboration unit collaborates with the 3D printer based on the information provided by the supply unit. The collaboration unit collaborates with the 3D printer in the form of, for example, a method for sending data or a method for managing print jobs.The collaboration unit, for example, sends the generated 3D model to the 3D printer and instructs the 3D printer to output the object. The collaboration unit also manages print jobs and monitors the operating status of the 3D printer. Some or all of the above processes in the collaboration unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or not using a generative AI. For example, the collaboration unit prompts the generative AI for a method of collaboration with the 3D printer, and the generative AI adjusts the collaboration method. In this way, the hobby-specific AI agent system according to the embodiment can support the user's creative activities by creating design drawings and 3D models based on user instructions, providing information, and collaborating with the 3D printer.
[0030] The reception unit receives user instructions. User instructions include, but are not limited to, voice instructions, text instructions, and gesture instructions. The reception unit can receive voice instructions from the user using, for example, speech recognition technology. Specifically, a deep learning-based speech recognition model is used as the speech recognition technology. This model converts the user's voice into text in a format that the system can understand. The reception unit can also receive text instructions from the user using a text input interface. The text input interface allows the user to input instructions using a keyboard or touchscreen, and the entered text is immediately sent to the system. Furthermore, the reception unit can also receive gesture instructions from the user using gesture recognition technology. Gesture recognition technology uses cameras and sensors to detect the user's hand and body movements and interprets them as instructions. For example, a user can send a specific command to the system by waving their hand. This allows the reception unit to support a variety of input methods, enabling users to give instructions in the way that is most comfortable for them. Furthermore, the reception unit can use these input methods in combination; for example, voice instructions and gesture instructions can be combined to give more complex instructions. This allows the reception desk to respond to diverse user needs and provide flexible and intuitive operation.
[0031] The generation unit creates design drawings and 3D models based on instructions received by the reception unit. The generation unit generates design drawings and 3D models in formats such as CAD data and STL files. Specifically, the generation unit analyzes the user's instructions and identifies the necessary design elements. For example, if the user instructs "I want to make a bookshelf," the generation unit creates an appropriate design drawing based on the size and shape of the lumber specified by the user. When creating the design drawing, the generation unit considers strength and stability and designs the optimal structure. Also, if the user instructs "I want a fighter jet object," the generation unit creates a 3D model based on the user's image. To materialize the user's image, the generation unit adds detailed design elements and creates a realistic 3D model. Some or all of the above processes in the generation unit may be performed using, for example, a generation AI, or not. For example, the generation unit inputs the user's instructions as prompts to the generation AI, and the generation AI generates design drawings and 3D models. The generation AI understands the user's instructions using natural language processing technology and generates an appropriate design. The generation AI can learn from past design data and patterns, and propose the optimal design for the user's requirements. This allows the generation unit to quickly and accurately generate blueprints and 3D models based on user instructions, supporting the user's creative activities.
[0032] The providing unit provides information generated by the generating unit. The providing unit provides information in the form of, for example, a preview of a design drawing or a display of a 3D model. Specifically, the providing unit has a preview function that allows the user to visually confirm the generated design drawing. The user can check the details of the design drawing and request corrections as needed. The providing unit also has a 3D model display function, allowing the user to check the generated 3D model from various angles. The providing unit provides, for example, a list of screws and tools that the user needs. This allows the user to prepare the materials and tools necessary for the project in advance. Some or all of the above processing in the providing unit may be performed using, for example, a generating AI, or not using a generating AI. For example, the providing unit inputs the generated design drawing or 3D model as a prompt to the generating AI, and the generating AI provides the information. The generating AI can refer to past data and patterns in order to provide the optimal information according to the user's request. This allows the providing unit to provide the user with quick and accurate information and support the progress of the project. Furthermore, the providing unit can collect user feedback and continuously improve the accuracy and usefulness of the information it provides. This allows the service provider to deliver high-quality information that meets user needs and improve user satisfaction.
[0033] The integration unit interacts with the 3D printer based on information provided by the supply unit. The integration unit interacts with the 3D printer in various ways, such as determining how to send data and how to manage print jobs. Specifically, the integration unit sends the generated 3D model to the 3D printer and instructs the 3D printer to output the object. The integration unit manages print jobs and monitors the 3D printer's operating status. This allows the integration unit to support the efficient operation of the 3D printer and enable users to create objects smoothly. Some or all of the above-described processes in the integration unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or without one. For example, the integration unit prompts the generative AI for the method of interacting with the 3D printer, and the generative AI adjusts the method. The generative AI can propose the optimal method of interaction according to the characteristics of the 3D printer and the user's requirements. This allows the integration unit to optimize interaction with the 3D printer and efficiently support the user's creative activities. Furthermore, the integration unit can collect 3D printer maintenance information and error logs and perform necessary maintenance and troubleshooting. This allows the integrated unit to improve the reliability and uptime of 3D printers, supporting the success of users' projects.
[0034] The generation unit can create a design drawing based on the size of the lumber purchased by the user. For example, the generation unit receives dimensions such as length, width, and height of the lumber purchased by the user as input and creates a design drawing based on that. For example, the generation unit can apply an algorithm to generate an optimal design drawing considering the size of the lumber. For example, the generation unit can also simultaneously generate a list of necessary screws and tools based on the size of the lumber. This allows the generation unit to provide an appropriate design drawing based on the size of the lumber purchased by the user. Some or all of the above processing in the generation unit may be performed using a generation AI, or not. For example, the generation unit inputs the size of the lumber as a prompt to the generation AI, and the generation AI generates a design drawing. The size of the lumber includes, but is not limited to, dimensions such as length, width, and height.
[0035] The generation unit can perform 3D modeling based on the user's image. For example, the generation unit can receive user-provided sketches, reference images, or verbal descriptions as input and perform 3D modeling based on them. The generation unit can apply algorithms to generate the optimal 3D model, taking the user's image into consideration. The generation unit can also simultaneously generate the necessary materials and print settings based on the user's image. This allows for the generation of objects that meet the user's expectations based on their image. Some or all of the above-described processes in the generation unit may be performed using, for example, a generation AI, or without a generation AI. For example, the generation unit inputs the user's image as a prompt to the generation AI, which then generates the 3D model. The user's image includes, but is not limited to, sketches, reference images, or verbal descriptions.
[0036] The providing unit can provide a list of necessary screws and tools. The providing unit generates a list of necessary screws and tools based, for example, on blueprints or 3D models generated by the generating unit. The providing unit can provide a list that includes information such as screw size and type, and tool type and application. The providing unit can also display a list of necessary screws and tools simultaneously when a user is viewing blueprints or 3D models. This makes it easy for the user to gather the necessary materials. Some or all of the above processing in the providing unit may be performed using, for example, a generating AI, or not using a generating AI. For example, the providing unit inputs blueprints or 3D models as prompts to the generating AI, and the generating AI generates a list of necessary screws and tools. The list of necessary screws and tools may include, for example, screw size and tool type, but is not limited to such examples.
[0037] The integration unit can work with a 3D printer to output objects. For example, the integration unit can send a 3D model generated by the generation unit to the 3D printer and instruct the 3D printer to output the object. The integration unit can manage print jobs and monitor the operating status of the 3D printer. The integration unit can set settings such as print accuracy and material type and make adjustments to obtain optimal print results. This allows users to easily use the 3D printer. Some or all of the above processes in the integration unit may be performed using, for example, a generation AI, or not using a generation AI. For example, the integration unit inputs a 3D model as a prompt to the generation AI, and the generation AI adjusts how to interact with the 3D printer. The output of an object includes, but is not limited to, print accuracy and material type.
[0038] The hobby-specific AI agent system according to the embodiment further comprises an update unit. The update unit can update and maintain the database. For example, the update unit can periodically update the system information to keep it up-to-date. For example, the update unit can manage the database update frequency and maintenance procedures. For example, the update unit can rebuild the database index to optimize the system performance. This ensures that the system information is always up-to-date. Some or all of the above-described processes in the update unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or without a generative AI. For example, the update unit inputs the database update procedure as a prompt to the generative AI, and the generative AI optimizes the update procedure. Database updates and maintenance include, but are not limited to, the update frequency and maintenance procedures.
[0039] The hobby-specific AI agent system according to this embodiment further comprises an interface unit. The interface unit can provide an interface that is easy for the user to operate. The interface unit, for example, conducts usability tests and designs intuitive operating methods. The interface unit, for example, provides button layouts and menu configurations that are easy for the user to operate. The interface unit, for example, provides visually easy-to-understand icons and graphical user interfaces (GUIs). This makes the system easy to use. Some or all of the above-described processes in the interface unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or without using a generative AI. For example, the interface unit inputs the results of a usability test as a prompt to the generative AI, and the generative AI designs the optimal interface. An easy-to-operate interface includes, but is not limited to, examples such as usability tests and intuitive operating methods.
[0040] The reception unit can analyze the user's past instruction history and select the optimal reception method. For example, the reception unit may prioritize suggesting instruction methods (voice, text, etc.) that the user has frequently used in the past. For example, the reception unit may automatically suggest relevant instructions based on the user's past project history. For example, the reception unit may suggest the optimal reception method for a specific time period based on the user's past instruction history. This allows the reception unit to provide the optimal reception method. Some or all of the above processing in the reception unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or not using a generative AI. For example, the reception unit may input the user's past instruction history as a prompt to the generative AI, and the generative AI may select the optimal reception method. The optimal reception method may include, but is not limited to, methods for analyzing past instruction history and optimization algorithms.
[0041] The reception unit can filter instructions based on the user's current projects and areas of interest when receiving them. For example, the reception unit may prioritize receiving instructions related to the user's current projects. For example, the reception unit may filter and suggest relevant instructions based on the user's areas of interest. For example, the reception unit may prioritize receiving relevant instructions based on projects the user has shown interest in in the past. This ensures that highly relevant instructions are prioritized. Some or all of the above processing in the reception unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or not using a generative AI. For example, the reception unit may input the user's current projects and areas of interest as prompts to the generative AI, which then performs the filtering. Filtering may include, but is not limited to, the type of project or how to identify areas of interest.
[0042] The reception unit can prioritize receiving instructions based on the user's geographical location information. For example, if the user is at home, the reception unit will prioritize instructions related to projects that can be done at home. If the user is out, the reception unit will prioritize instructions related to projects that can be done while out. If the user is in a specific location, the reception unit will prioritize instructions related to that location. This enables responses tailored to the user's situation. Some or all of the above processing in the reception unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or without a generative AI. For example, the reception unit inputs the user's geographical location information as a prompt to the generative AI, which then filters out the most relevant instructions. Geographical location information includes, but is not limited to, GPS data and location services.
[0043] The reception unit can analyze the user's social media activity when receiving instructions and receive relevant instructions. For example, the reception unit can prioritize instructions related to projects the user has shared on social media. For example, the reception unit can prioritize instructions based on topics the user has shown interest in on social media. For example, the reception unit can prioritize instructions related to projects that the user's social media followers are interested in. This allows for the priority of receiving relevant instructions. Some or all of the above processing in the reception unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or not using a generative AI. For example, the reception unit inputs the user's social media activity as a prompt to the generative AI, and the generative AI filters out relevant instructions. Social media activity includes, but is not limited to, analyzing post content and evaluating activity frequency.
[0044] The generation unit can adjust the level of detail in the design based on the quality and characteristics of the timber when creating the design drawing. For example, when using high-quality timber, the generation unit provides a detailed design drawing. For example, when using low-quality timber, the generation unit provides a simplified design drawing. For example, when using timber with specific characteristics, the generation unit provides a design drawing that corresponds to those characteristics. This allows for the provision of an appropriate design drawing. Some or all of the above-described processes in the generation unit may be performed using, for example, a generation AI, or without a generation AI. For example, the generation unit inputs the quality and characteristics of the timber as prompts to the generation AI, and the generation AI adjusts the level of detail in the design. The quality and characteristics of the timber include, but are not limited to, strength, durability, and grain pattern.
[0045] The generation unit can apply different modeling algorithms during 3D modeling depending on the user's image. For example, if the user has a specific image, the generation unit applies a modeling algorithm based on that image. For example, if the user has an abstract image, the generation unit applies an abstract modeling algorithm. For example, if the user has multiple images, the generation unit applies a modeling algorithm that combines them. This makes it possible to create 3D models that meet the user's wishes. Some or all of the above-described processes in the generation unit may be performed using a generation AI, for example, or without a generation AI. For example, the generation unit inputs the user's image as a prompt to the generation AI, and the generation AI applies the optimal modeling algorithm. Different modeling algorithms include, but are not limited to, polygon modeling and sculpting.
[0046] The information provider can adjust the level of detail provided based on the importance of the information at the time of provision. For example, when providing highly important information, the provider will provide information that includes detailed explanations. For example, when providing less important information, the provider will provide concise information. The provider may adjust the level of detail of the information in stages according to its importance. This enables the provision of appropriate information. Some or all of the above processing in the information provider may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or without a generative AI. For example, the provider may input the importance of the information as a prompt to the generative AI, and the generative AI will adjust the level of detail of the information. The importance of the information includes, but is not limited to, the user's level of interest or the urgency of the information.
[0047] The information provider can apply different information provision algorithms depending on the category of information at the time of provision. For example, when providing technical information, the provider may apply a specialized algorithm. For example, when providing general information, the provider may apply a concise algorithm. For example, the provider may select the optimal information provision algorithm depending on a specific category. This enables the provision of appropriate information. Some or all of the above processing in the information provider may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or without a generative AI. For example, the information provider may input the category of information as a prompt to the generative AI, and the generative AI may apply the optimal information provision algorithm. Categories of information include, but are not limited to, technical information and business information.
[0048] The integration unit can adjust the level of detail of the integration based on the performance and characteristics of the 3D printer during integration. For example, when using a high-performance 3D printer, the integration unit provides a detailed integration method. For example, when using a low-performance 3D printer, the integration unit provides a simplified integration method. For example, when using a 3D printer with specific characteristics, the integration unit provides an integration method tailored to those characteristics. This enables appropriate integration. Some or all of the above processing in the integration unit may be performed using, for example, a generating AI, or without a generating AI. For example, the integration unit inputs the performance and characteristics of the 3D printer as prompts to the generating AI, and the generating AI adjusts the level of detail of the integration. The performance and characteristics of the 3D printer include, but are not limited to, print resolution and material type.
[0049] The integration unit can apply different integration algorithms depending on the progress of the user's project during integration.

[0064] (Example of form 2) The hobby-focused AI agent system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system designed to enrich users' leisure time. This system provides an AI agent that supports DIY furniture projects and creative activities using 3D printers. For example, when a user undertakes a DIY furniture project, they instruct the AI agent to "make a bookshelf." The AI agent creates a design drawing based on the size of the lumber the user purchases and provides a list of necessary screws and tools. This allows the user to easily assemble the furniture according to the design drawing. It is similar to the instruction manual for IKEA's assembly furniture. Next, when a user engages in creative activities using a 3D printer, they instruct the AI agent to "want a fighter jet object." The AI agent performs 3D modeling based on the user's image and outputs the object in cooperation with the 3D printer. This allows the user to easily output what they want with a 3D printer without needing to master modeling software. Through this mechanism, a hobby-focused AI agent can support users' DIY furniture projects and creative activities using 3D printers, enriching their leisure time. Users can achieve professional-level results simply by consulting with the AI agent. This allows hobby-focused AI agent systems to enrich users' leisure time and support their creative activities.

For example, if the user instructs "I want a fighter jet object," the generation unit performs 3D modeling based on the user's image. Some or all of the above-described processes in the generation unit may be performed using, for example, a generation AI, or without using a generation AI. For example, the generation unit inputs user instructions as prompts to the generation AI, which then generates blueprints and 3D models.

Specifically, a deep learning-based speech recognition model is used as the speech recognition technology. This model converts the user's voice into text in a format that the system can understand. The reception unit can also receive text instructions from the user using a text input interface. The text input interface allows the user to input instructions using a keyboard or touchscreen, and the entered text is immediately sent to the system. Furthermore, the reception unit can also receive gesture instructions from the user using gesture recognition technology. Gesture recognition technology uses cameras and sensors to detect the user's hand and body movements and interprets them as instructions. For example, a user can send a specific command to the system by waving their hand. This allows the reception unit to support a variety of input methods, enabling users to give instructions in the way that is most comfortable for them.

[0135] [Third Embodiment] Figure 5 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 310 according to the third embodiment.
[0136] 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.
[0137] 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 communication interface 26 is connected to a network 54. An example of the network 54 is a WAN and / or LAN.
[0138] 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 microphone 238, speaker 240, camera 42, and display 343 are also connected to the bus 52.
[0139] 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.
[0140] 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).
[0141] 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.
[0142] 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.
[0143] 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.
[0144] 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.
[0145] 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.
[0146] 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.

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.).
[0147] 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.
[0148] 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.
[0149] The data processing system 310 according to the third embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. 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.

The correspondence between each part and the device or control unit is not limited to the examples described above, and various modifications are possible.
[0151] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.
[0152] 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 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.
[0156] 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).
[0157] 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.

[0158] 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.
[0159] 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.
[0160] 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.

Furthermore, emotion estimation and prediction also include, for example, emotion analysis.
[0162] 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.
[0163] 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.).
[0164] 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.
[0165] 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).

[0166] 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.
[0167] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the reception unit, generation unit, provision unit, cooperation unit, update unit, and interface unit, is implemented in at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the reception unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and receives user instructions using voice recognition technology or a text input interface. The generation unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and generates design drawings or 3D models based on user instructions. The provision unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and provides the generated information to the user. The cooperation unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and outputs objects in cooperation with a 3D printer. The update unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and performs database updates and maintenance. The interface unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and provides an interface that the user can easily operate. 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.
[0168] 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.
[0169] 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.
[0170] 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.
[0171] 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.
[0172] 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.
[0173] 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."
[0174] 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.
[0175] 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.
[0176] 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.
[0177] 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.
[0178] 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.
[0179] 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.
[0180] 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.
[0181] 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.
[0182] 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.
[0183] 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.
[0184] 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.
