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 care support system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system for advancing the use of AI in care support. While AI has already been introduced into some areas of care support systems, such as the creation of care plans, human intervention is still required for tasks that connect these processes. By integrating these processes and building a system in which AI automatically makes decisions and repeatedly learns while considering the overall workflow, the aim is to contribute to solving Japan's increasingly serious aging problem. For example, in the care support system, the AI formulates a care plan. Next, the AI monitors the user's health condition and instructs medical measures as needed. Furthermore, the care support system monitors the implementation status of the care plan and issues warnings or notifies external parties in case of emergencies. In addition, the care support system grasps all information related to care and takes the following actions. This includes managing finances, coordinating with designated driver services, managing hygiene in the living space, providing entertainment, reporting to family members about the care situation, and acting as a question answerer or conversational partner. For example, in the care support system, the AI formulates a care plan. In this process, the AI creates an optimal care plan based on information such as the user's health condition, living environment, and past care plans. For example, if a user's health deteriorates, the AI will create a corresponding care plan and instruct necessary medical actions. Next, the care support system uses AI to monitor the user's health. The AI monitors the user's health data, such as body temperature, blood pressure, and heart rate, in real time, and instructs medical actions if an abnormality is detected. For example, if a user's body temperature rises rapidly, the AI will contact a medical institution and instruct appropriate action. Furthermore, the care support system uses AI to monitor the implementation of the care plan. The AI monitors whether the care plan is being properly implemented and issues warnings or reports to external parties if problems occur. For example, if a user is not following the care plan, the AI will alert the caregiver and contact family or medical institutions as needed. The care support system also grasps all information related to care and takes the following actions. This includes managing finances, coordinating with designated driver services, managing the hygiene of the living space, providing entertainment, reporting to family members about the care situation, and acting as a question answerer or conversational partner. For example, the care support system manages the user's finances and automatically makes necessary payments.Furthermore, the care support system will integrate with a designated driver service to assist users with their transportation. In addition, the care support system will manage the hygiene of the living space, providing a comfortable environment for users. In this way, the care support system will improve the efficiency and quality of caregiving operations, contributing to the resolution of Japan's increasingly serious aging population problem. Thus, the care support system will improve the efficiency and quality of caregiving operations.
[0029] The care support system according to this embodiment comprises a planning unit, a monitoring unit, an instruction unit, an execution monitoring unit, and a notification unit. The planning unit plans a care plan. The planning unit creates an optimal care plan based on information such as the user's health condition, living environment, and past care plans. For example, if the user's health condition deteriorates, the planning unit can plan a corresponding care plan and instruct necessary medical measures. The planning unit can also use AI to analyze the user's health condition and living environment and plan an optimal care plan. The monitoring unit monitors the health condition based on the care plan planned by the planning unit. The monitoring unit monitors health data such as the user's body temperature, blood pressure, and heart rate in real time. For example, if an abnormality is detected, the monitoring unit can instruct medical measures. The monitoring unit can also use AI to analyze health data and detect abnormalities. The instruction unit instructs medical measures based on the health condition monitored by the monitoring unit. The instruction unit can, for example, contact a medical institution and instruct appropriate action if the user's body temperature rises rapidly. The instruction unit can also, for example, use AI to analyze health data and instruct appropriate medical measures. The execution monitoring unit monitors the implementation status of the care plan based on the medical measures instructed by the instruction unit. The execution monitoring unit monitors, for example, whether the care plan is being implemented appropriately. The execution monitoring unit can, for example, issue warnings or notify external parties if a problem occurs. The execution monitoring unit can also, for example, use AI to monitor the implementation status of the care plan and detect problems. The notification unit issues warnings or notifies external parties in emergencies based on the implementation status of the care plan monitored by the execution monitoring unit. The notification unit can, for example, alert caregivers if the user is not following the care plan and contact family members or medical institutions as needed. The notification unit can also, for example, use AI to analyze the situation in an emergency and make appropriate notifications. As a result, the care support system according to this embodiment integrates everything from care plan planning to implementation, monitoring, and notification, and the AI automatically makes decisions and repeatedly learns, thereby improving the efficiency and quality of care support.
[0030] The planning department develops care plans. Based on information such as the user's health status, living environment, and past care plans, the planning department creates the optimal care plan. Specifically, data on the user's health status is collected from regular health checkup results and daily health monitoring data. This includes vital signs such as blood pressure, body temperature, heart rate, and blood glucose levels. Information on the living environment includes the user's residence, family structure, and daily activity patterns. Past care plans include data on the content and effectiveness of care provided to date, as well as the user's responses. The planning department comprehensively analyzes this information to assess the user's current condition and future risks. For example, if the user's health status deteriorates, the planning department can develop a corresponding care plan and instruct necessary medical measures. The planning department can also use AI to analyze the user's health status and living environment and develop the optimal care plan. By learning from past data and building pattern recognition and predictive models, the AI can provide customized care plans for each user. For example, the AI can analyze the user's health data and detect specific symptoms or risk factors early. This allows the planning department to quickly develop appropriate care plans tailored to the user's health condition, thereby improving the quality of care support. Furthermore, the planning department can share the contents of the care plan through communication with the user and their family, and reflect the user's intentions and wishes. This can increase user satisfaction and improve the implementation rate of care plans.
[0031] The monitoring unit monitors the user's health status based on the care plan developed by the planning unit. The monitoring unit monitors health data such as the user's body temperature, blood pressure, and heart rate in real time. Specifically, this data is continuously collected through wearable devices worn by the user and home health monitoring devices. These devices transmit data to a central database via Bluetooth® or Wi-Fi, allowing the monitoring unit to access it in real time. The monitoring unit can, for example, instruct medical action if an abnormality is detected. For instance, if a user's body temperature rises rapidly, the monitoring unit immediately issues an alert and contacts a medical institution. The monitoring unit can also use AI to analyze health data and detect abnormalities. The AI learns patterns in normal health data and uses algorithms to quickly identify abnormal data. This allows the monitoring unit to constantly monitor the user's health status and respond quickly when an abnormality occurs. Furthermore, the monitoring unit can analyze trends in the user's health status based on past health data and assess long-term risks. For example, it can analyze blood pressure data from the past few months to assess whether the user is at risk of hypertension. This allows the monitoring department to develop preventative care plans and support users in maintaining their health.
[0032] The command unit directs medical actions based on the health status monitored by the monitoring unit. For example, if a user's body temperature rises rapidly, the command unit can contact a medical institution and instruct appropriate action. Specifically, the command unit analyzes the user's health data in real time, and if an abnormality is detected, it instructs action according to a pre-configured protocol. For example, if the body temperature exceeds a certain threshold, it instructs cooling measures and contacts a medical institution as necessary. The command unit can also use AI to analyze health data and instruct appropriate medical actions. Based on past data, the AI can learn the optimal response to specific symptoms and risk factors and issue instructions quickly and accurately. For example, if a user's heart rate is abnormally high, the AI will instruct rest and contact a medical institution as necessary. Furthermore, the command unit can share the details of medical actions through communication with the user and their family, and reflect the user's intentions and wishes. This can increase the user's sense of security and improve the rate of medical action implementation. In addition, the command unit can strengthen cooperation with medical institutions and care facilities to achieve quick and appropriate responses. For example, by sharing data with medical institutions and providing real-time information on the user's health status, medical institutions can respond quickly. This allows the command center to promptly issue appropriate medical instructions based on the user's health condition, thereby improving the quality of care support.
[0033] The Execution Monitoring Unit monitors the implementation status of care plans based on medical procedures instructed by the Instruction Unit. For example, the Execution Monitoring Unit monitors whether the care plan is being implemented appropriately. Specifically, the Execution Monitoring Unit conducts regular checks and monitoring to ensure that users and caregivers are acting in accordance with the care plan. For example, it verifies whether users are taking prescribed medications at the appropriate time and whether they are performing regular exercise and rehabilitation. The Execution Monitoring Unit can also issue warnings and notify external parties if problems occur. For example, if a user forgets to take their medication, it will issue an alert and notify the caregiver. Furthermore, the Execution Monitoring Unit can use AI to monitor the implementation status of care plans and detect problems. The AI analyzes user behavior data and can respond quickly if it detects deviations from the care plan or abnormal behavior. For example, if a user neglects regular exercise, it will issue an alert and notify the caregiver. The Execution Monitoring Unit can also share the status of care plan implementation through communication with users and caregivers and respond quickly if problems occur. This allows the Execution Monitoring Unit to constantly understand the status of care plan implementation and respond quickly when problems arise. Furthermore, the implementation monitoring unit can accumulate data on the implementation status of care plans and use it to improve future care plans. This allows the implementation monitoring unit to monitor the implementation status of care plans and respond quickly when problems arise, thereby improving the quality of care support.
[0034] The notification unit issues emergency alerts and makes external notifications based on the implementation status of care plans monitored by the execution monitoring unit. For example, if a user is not following the care plan, the notification unit can alert the caregiver and contact family or medical institutions as needed. Specifically, the notification unit receives alerts from the execution monitoring unit and instructs the user or caregiver to take appropriate action. For example, if a user forgets to take their medication, the notification unit will notify the caregiver and contact family or medical institutions as needed. The notification unit can also use AI to analyze emergency situations and make appropriate notifications. Based on past data, the AI can learn emergency patterns and respond quickly and accurately. For example, if a user's health condition rapidly deteriorates, the AI will analyze the situation and instruct appropriate action. The notification unit can also share emergency situations and respond quickly through communication with users and caregivers. This allows the notification unit to respond quickly to emergencies and ensure the user's safety. Furthermore, the notification unit can accumulate data on emergency situations and use it to improve future responses. This allows the reporting department to respond quickly and appropriately to emergency situations, ensuring user safety and thereby improving the quality of care support.
[0035] The management department can manage finances. For example, the management department can record user expenses. The management department can also manage user budgets. For example, the management department can automate payments. For example, the management department can use AI to record user expenses and manage budgets. By automating financial management, the burden on users can be reduced, and the efficiency of care support can be improved.
[0036] The integration unit can integrate with designated driver services. For example, the integration unit can support the user's transportation. The integration unit can also automate the use of designated driver services. For example, the integration unit can use AI to integrate with designated driver services. This automates the integration with designated driver services, thereby supporting the user's transportation and improving the efficiency of care support.
[0037] The Hygiene Management Department can manage the hygiene of living spaces. For example, the Hygiene Management Department can clean the user's living space. For example, the Hygiene Management Department can also perform disinfection. For example, the Hygiene Management Department can use AI to manage the hygiene of living spaces.

[0038] The service provider can provide entertainment. For example, the service provider can provide users with television viewing. For example, the service provider can provide users with games. For example, the service provider can provide users with reading material. For example, the service provider can use AI to provide users with the most suitable entertainment. By automating the provision of entertainment, it is possible to improve the quality of life for users and increase the efficiency of care support.
[0039] The reporting unit can provide families with reports on the care situation. For example, the reporting unit can report the user's health status to the family. The reporting unit can also report to the family on the progress of the user's care plan. The reporting unit can also use AI to report on the care situation. By automating the reporting of the care situation, information can be provided to families more smoothly, and the efficiency of care support can be improved.
[0040] The proxy unit can answer questions about unclear points and act as a conversational partner. For example, the proxy unit can answer questions about the user's medical care. For example, the proxy unit can also answer questions about the user's daily life. For example, the proxy unit can act as a conversational partner for the user. For example, the proxy unit can use AI to answer questions and act as a conversational partner for the user. By automating questioning and conversational support, it is possible to reduce user anxiety and improve the efficiency of care support.
[0041] The planning department can analyze the results of past care plan implementations and develop the most effective care plan. For example, based on the results of past care plan implementations, the planning department can develop a care plan that prioritizes activities that users enjoyed. For example, based on the results of past care plan implementations, the planning department can also develop a care plan that includes many activities that were highly effective. For example, based on the results of past care plan implementations, the planning department can develop a care plan that avoids activities that were prone to causing problems. In this way, by analyzing the results of past care plan implementations, it is possible to provide more effective care plans.
[0042] The planning department can customize care plans based on the user's living environment and family structure. For example, if the user lives alone, the planning department can create a care plan that increases the frequency of home care visits. If the user lives with family, the planning department can also create a care plan that assumes cooperation with family members. For example, the planning department can create a care plan that includes a balanced mix of indoor and outdoor activities, tailored to the user's living environment. This allows for the provision of more individualized care plans by considering the user's living environment and family structure.
[0043] The planning unit can create the most effective care plan based on the user's geographical location information. For example, if the user lives in an urban area, the planning unit can create a care plan that utilizes nearby facilities. If the user lives in a suburban area, the planning unit can also create a care plan that takes transportation into consideration. If the user lives in a remote area, the planning unit can also create a care plan that includes online activities. This allows for the provision of more appropriate care plans by considering the user's geographical location information.
[0044] The planning department can analyze a user's social media activity when creating a care plan and develop a relevant care plan. For example, the planning department can develop a care plan that includes activities the user has shown interest in on social media. The planning department can also develop a care plan that includes activities the user engages in with friends on social media. For example, the planning department can develop a care plan based on health information the user shares on social media. This allows for the provision of more appropriate care plans by analyzing the user's social media activity.
[0045] The monitoring unit can detect abnormal values in health data in real time and respond quickly. For example, if a user's body temperature rises rapidly, the monitoring unit can immediately contact a medical institution. For example, if a user's blood pressure shows an abnormal value, the monitoring unit can quickly instruct medical treatment. For example, if a user's heart rate shows an abnormal value, the monitoring unit can immediately notify a caregiver. This enables rapid response by detecting abnormal values in health data in real time.
[0046] The monitoring unit can predict changes in a user's health status by referring to their past health data. For example, the monitoring unit can predict seasonal changes in health status from past health data. For example, the monitoring unit can also predict changes in health status after a specific activity from past health data. For example, the monitoring unit can also predict long-term trends in health status from past health data. This allows for the prediction of changes in health status and appropriate responses by referring to past health data.
[0047] The monitoring unit can set the most effective monitoring timing based on the user's lifestyle when monitoring their health status. For example, the monitoring unit can monitor the user's health status according to their wake-up time. For example, the monitoring unit can monitor the user's health status according to their meal times. For example, the monitoring unit can monitor the user's health status according to their bedtime. This allows for more appropriate health monitoring by taking the user's lifestyle into consideration.
[0048] The monitoring unit can customize its monitoring content when monitoring the user's health status, taking into account the user's diet and exercise habits. For example, the monitoring unit can monitor blood glucose levels based on the user's diet. For example, the monitoring unit can also monitor heart rate based on the user's exercise habits. For example, the monitoring unit can perform comprehensive health monitoring, taking into account the balance between the user's diet and exercise. This allows for more appropriate health monitoring by considering the user's diet and exercise habits.
[0049] The instruction unit can refer to the user's past medical history to provide optimal instructions when issuing medical treatment orders.

As a result, more appropriate reporting becomes possible by referring to the user's past caregiving history.
[0159] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 2.
[0160] Step 1: The planning department develops a care plan. The planning department creates an optimal care plan based on information such as the user's health condition, living environment, and past care plans. For example, if the user's health condition deteriorates, the planning department can develop a corresponding care plan and instruct necessary medical measures. It is also possible to use AI to analyze the user's health condition and living environment and develop an optimal care plan. Step 2: The monitoring unit monitors the user's health status based on the care plan developed by the planning unit. The monitoring unit monitors the user's health data, such as body temperature, blood pressure, and heart rate, in real time. If an abnormality is detected, it can instruct medical action. It can also use AI to analyze health data and detect abnormalities. Step 3: The instruction unit directs medical actions based on the health status monitored by the monitoring unit. If the user's body temperature rises rapidly, the instruction unit can contact a medical institution and direct appropriate action. It can also use AI to analyze health data and direct appropriate medical actions. Step 4: The implementation monitoring unit monitors the implementation status of the care plan based on the medical measures instructed by the instruction unit. The implementation monitoring unit monitors whether the care plan is being implemented appropriately. If a problem occurs, it can issue a warning or notify external parties. It can also use AI to monitor the implementation status of the care plan and detect problems. Step 5: The notification unit issues emergency alerts and makes external notifications based on the implementation status of the care plan monitored by the execution monitoring unit. If the user is not following the care plan, the notification unit can alert the caregiver and contact family or medical institutions as needed. It can also use AI to analyze the emergency situation and make appropriate notifications.

[0162] Data generation model 58 is a form of so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence).

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 (SVMs), k-means clustering, convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), generative adversarial networks (GANs), 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 of the above parts 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.Furthermore, processing performed by AI, including generative AI, may be replaced with rule-based processing, and rule-based processing may be replaced with processing performed by AI, including generative AI.

[0209] 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.).
[0210] 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.
[0211] 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.
[0212] 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.
[0213] Each of the multiple elements mentioned above, including the planning unit, monitoring unit, instruction unit, execution monitoring unit, notification unit, management unit, coordination unit, hygiene management unit, provision unit, reporting unit, and proxy unit, is implemented by, for example, at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the planning unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414, which analyzes the user's health condition and living environment and formulates an optimal care plan. The monitoring unit monitors health data in real time using the camera 42 and sensors of the robot 414. The instruction unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12, which instructs medical measures based on health data. The execution monitoring unit monitors the implementation status of the care plan by, for example, the control unit 46A of the robot 414. The notification unit makes emergency notifications by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The management unit manages finances by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The coordination unit, for example, coordinates with the driving assistance service via the control unit 46A of the robot 414. The hygiene management unit, for example, manages the hygiene of the living space via the control unit 46A of the robot 414. The provision unit, for example, provides entertainment via the control unit 46A of the robot 414. The reporting unit, for example, reports the care situation to the family via the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12. The substitute unit, for example, answers the user's questions and acts as a conversational partner via the control unit 46A of the robot 414. The correspondence between each unit and the devices and control units is not limited to the examples described above and can be modified in various ways.
[0214] 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.
[0215] 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.
[0216] 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.
[0217] 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.
[0218] 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.
[0219] 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."
[0220] 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.
[0221] 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.
[0222] 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.
[0223] 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.
[0224] 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.
[0225] 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.
[0226] 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.
[0227] 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.
[0228] 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.
[0229] 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.
