The storage device 104 may be, for example, a hard disk drive (HDD) in which a storage medium and a drive are integrated.

[0045] Next, an example of the management method of this embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of Fig. 3. The management method of this embodiment is implemented as follows, for example, using the management device 10 of Fig. 1. Note that the management method of this embodiment is not limited to the use of the management device 10 of Fig. 1.

[0046] First, the initial setting means 11 refers to the initial setting information database via the communication means 13 to perform initial settings for a plurality of evacuation guiding devices (S11), and sets the qualification of a master for at least one of the plurality of evacuation guiding devices (S12). The plurality of evacuation guiding devices are devices in fixed structures installed in specific areas, and are devices that configure a mesh network by the initial setting. Specifically, for example, they are the evacuation guiding devices 20 and 30 described in the second embodiment (including the first and second variations). The initial setting information database is, for example, a database in which initial setting information is stored. The initial setting information is not particularly limited, and includes, for example, evacuation direction information, identification information, whether or not a master is qualified, whether or not a sub-master is qualified, master identification information, whether or not a sub-master is qualified, the number of the evacuation guiding devices, initial status, and color corresponding to each status. The master and the status will be described later.

[0047] Next, the master setting means 12 refers to the master setting information database via the communication means 13, and sets information about the master for the evacuation guidance device (e.g., the evacuation guidance device 30 described in the first and second variants) for which the master qualifications have been set (S13), and then terminates (END).

[0048] On the other hand, if the master qualification is not set, for example, the above step (S11) may be executed and then ended (END).

[0049] 1, the device 10 may further include a transmitting means 14, an acquiring means 15, and an evacuation direction information generating means 16. An example of the management method in this case will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

[0050] Steps (S11) to (S13) shown in FIG. 4 are carried out in the same manner as steps (S11) to (S13) shown in FIG.

[0051] Next, the transmitting means 14 links the map information of the specific area with the position information of the plurality of evacuation guiding devices and transmits the map information to the evacuation guiding device for which the master qualification has been set (S14) via the communication means 13. The map information of the specific area may be stored in advance in the memory 102 or the storage device 104, for example, or may be acquired by the acquiring means 15 described later.

[0052] Next, the acquisition means 15 acquires, via the communication means 13, map information with statuses in the plurality of evacuation guiding devices mapped onto the map information from the evacuation guiding device for which the master qualification has been set (S15). The map information with statuses corresponds to, for example, the "mapped map information" described in the first modified example.

[0053] Next, the evacuation direction information generating means 16 generates evacuation direction information for each of the plurality of evacuation guiding devices based on the acquired map information with status (S16). The evacuation direction information is, for example, information indicating the direction of an evacuation site or the like. For example, the evacuation direction information generating means 16 may further refer to a mesh network activity state database to generate evacuation direction information for each of the plurality of evacuation guiding devices. The mesh network activity information database is a database that stores the activity state of each mesh network in a plurality of specific areas. Specifically, the activity state detected by the evacuation guiding device 30 described in the second modified example is stored therein.

[0054] Then, the transmission means 14 further transmits the evacuation direction information to the evacuation guiding device that has been qualified as the master via the communication means 13 (S17), and the process ends (END). The evacuation direction information is then transferred from the evacuation guiding device that has been qualified as the master to each of the evacuation guiding devices in the mesh network that do not have the master qualification. That is, if the initial setting means 11 has already set the evacuation direction information, for example, as the initial setting, the evacuation direction information is reset by transmitting the generated evacuation direction information by the transmission means 14.

[0055] 1, the device 10 may further include a safety confirmation means 17. An example of the management method in this case will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

[0056] Steps (S11) to (S17) shown in FIG. 5 are carried out in the same manner as steps (S11) to (S17) shown in FIG.

[0057] For example, after the step (S13), the safety confirmation means 17 refers to at least one of the passing information database and the evacuation completion database to confirm the safety of the target person (S18). The passing information database is a database that stores passing information indicating that the information registration device has received the identification information transmitted by the evacuation guiding device. The information registration device is a device that the target person can carry, and specifically, for example, is the information registration device 40 described in the third embodiment. The evacuation completion information database is a database that stores evacuation completion information indicating that the evacuation of the target person has been completed by the information registration device. For example, the step (S18) may be processed in parallel with the steps (S14) to (S17). In addition, the safety confirmation means 17 may, for example, compare the passing information in the passing information database with the evacuation completion information in the evacuation completion information database, and confirm whether all of the information registration devices recorded as the passing information are stored in the evacuation completion information database as the evacuation completion information corresponding to the information registration device. That is, the safety confirmation means 17 confirms the safety of all subjects carrying the information registration device. The step (S18) may be repeated until the evacuation completion information corresponding to all the information registration devices is confirmed. Then, when all the steps from the step (S11) to the step (S18) have been processed, the process ends (END).

[0058] According to the management device 10 of the present embodiment, for example, it is possible to guide a target person to evacuation while ensuring the safety of the target person by using the evacuation direction information as the initial setting or the generated evacuation direction information. Also, according to the present device 10, for example, it is possible to easily confirm the safety of the target person.

The device 20 forms a mesh network with other evacuation guidance devices via the communication means 28. The mesh network is a network in which devices in the network can communicate with each other even if they are not directly connected to each other, and forms a mesh-like communication path. The mesh network is, for example, configured with Bluetooth (registered trademark). The multiple evacuation guidance devices including the device 20 are devices in fixed structures installed in specific areas. Specifically, for example, they may be devices built into the fixed structure, or may be devices attached to the outer surface of the fixed structure. In addition, the device 20 may be, for example, a fixed structure in which the program of the present invention is installed. The specific area is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, within a city, town, village, shopping district, event venue, department store, or other facility. The specific area is also called, for example, a section. The mesh network is configured by the device 20, for example, in accordance with the topography, structure, divisions such as municipal divisions, etc. of the specific area.

[0060] The device 20 may be, for example, a single device including each of the above-mentioned units, or a device to which each of the above-mentioned units can be connected via a communication network. The device 20 may be connectable to the external device via the communication network. The communication network may be, for example, the same as described above. The device 20 may be, for example, a personal computer (PC, for example, desktop type or notebook type) in which the program of the present invention is installed, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, or the like.

[0061] 7 illustrates a block diagram of the hardware configuration of the present device 20. The present device 20 includes, for example, a central processing unit (CPU, GPC, etc.) 101, a memory 102, a bus 103, a storage device 104, an input device 105, a display device 106, a communication device 107, etc. Each part of the present device 20 is connected to each other via the bus 103 by each interface (I / F). Unless otherwise specified, the explanation of the first embodiment can be applied to each part of the hardware configuration.

[0062] The central processing unit (central processing unit) 101 functions, for example, as a confirmation means 22, a detection data acquisition means 23, a determination means 24, a notification means 25, a status setting means 26, and a display processing means 27. The communication device 107 functions, for example, as a communication means 28. The storage means 21 can use, for example, the memory 102 or the storage device 104.

[0063] Next, an example of the evacuation guidance method of this embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of Fig. 8. The evacuation guidance method of this embodiment is carried out as follows, for example, using the evacuation guidance device 20 of Fig. 6. Note that the evacuation guidance method of this embodiment is not limited to the use of the evacuation guidance device 20 of Fig. 6.

[0064] The storage means 21 stores in advance initial setting information executed by a management device outside the mesh network (S20). The management device is a device that manages the plurality of evacuation guiding devices including the device 20, and specifically, for example, is the management device 10 described in the first embodiment. The initial setting information is, for example, the same as described above.

[0065] First, the confirmation means 22 monitors other evacuation guidance devices in other fixed structures adjacent to the device 20 among the multiple evacuation guiding devices via the communication means 28 to confirm the presence or absence of damage to the other evacuation guiding devices (S21). Specifically, for example, it monitors whether the other evacuation guiding devices continuously notify the information on the presence or absence of the damage. Then, when notified of the information that there is damage due to the disaster or when the notification of the information on the presence or absence of the damage is discontinued, the confirmation means 22 confirms that there is damage to the other evacuation guiding devices. On the other hand, when notified of the information that there is no damage due to the disaster, the confirmation means 22 confirms that there is no damage to the other evacuation guiding devices.

[0066] Next, the detection data acquisition means 23 acquires detection data indicating at least one of the state of the fixed structure and the state of the specific area (S22). Examples of the detection data indicating the state of the fixed structure include time information, data communication log, self-check log, power outage log, lighting start time, lighting end time, continuous lighting time, and other data. The state of the specific area specifically means, for example, the vicinity of the area in the specific area where the device 20 is installed. Examples of the detection data indicating the state of the specific area include data such as illuminance, infrared rays, ultraviolet rays, inclination, vibration (acceleration), temperature, humidity, and water level. The detection data can be detected, for example, using detection devices such as various sensors and cameras, and programs such as various monitoring programs. The device 20 may further include, for example, the detection devices and the programs, and the detection data acquisition means 23 may acquire the detection data by detection using the detection devices and the programs. In addition, the device 20 may communicate with an external detection device or an external device including the program, for example, via the communication network, and the detection data acquisition means 23 may acquire the detection data detected by the detection device or the program via the communication network.

[0067] Next, the determination means 24 determines whether or not the fixed structure has been damaged based on the detection data (S23). Specifically, for example, the storage means 21 further accumulates and stores the detection data acquired when no disaster has occurred (hereinafter also referred to as normal detection data), and the determination means 24 can compare the detection data acquired when a disaster has occurred (hereinafter also referred to as disaster detection data) with the normal detection data to determine whether or not the fixed structure has been damaged. More specifically, for example, if the difference between the disaster detection data and the normal detection data is greater than a preset reference value, the damage can be determined to be "present," and if the difference between the disaster detection data and the normal detection data is smaller than a preset reference value, the damage can be determined to be "absent." On the other hand, the determination means 24 may determine whether or not the fixed structure has been damaged based on a threshold value preset for each detection item, for example.

[0068] Next, the notifying means 25 notifies the other evacuation guiding devices of the determined presence or absence of damage to the fixed structure via the communication means 28 (S24). The notification is performed, for example, periodically. Also, for example, the steps (S22) to (S24) may be performed continuously.

[0069] The step (S21) and the steps (S22) to (S24) may be performed in parallel as shown in Fig. 8, or may be performed in order. The order is not particularly limited.

[0070] Next, the status setting means 26 sets the status of the device 20 based on the presence or absence of damage in the other evacuation guiding devices confirmed and the presence or absence of damage in the fixed structure determined (S25). The status is, for example, a sign indicating the safety of the point where the fixed structure is installed in the device 20. Specifically, for example, when it is confirmed by the monitoring that there is no damage in the other evacuation guiding devices and it is determined by the determination that there is no damage in the fixed structure, the status is set to "safe". The "safety" means, for example, that no damage has occurred in the vicinity including the fixed structure and that safety is high. In addition, the status setting means 26 sets the status to "edge" when, for example, it is confirmed by the monitoring that there is damage in at least one of the other evacuation guiding devices and it is determined by the determination that there is no damage in the fixed structure. The "edge" means, for example, that damage has occurred in the vicinity of the fixed structure and that the fixed structure is a boundary with the area where the damage has occurred (other fixed structures). Furthermore, the status setting means 26 sets the status to "damaged" when, for example, the determination determines that there is damage to a fixed structure. Also, the status setting means 26 sets the status to "unknown" when, for example, the monitoring cannot confirm the presence or absence of damage to the other evacuation guiding devices. The "unknown" status can be regarded as, for example, damage to the other evacuation guiding devices. The locations where the "damaged" and "unknown" evacuation guiding devices are installed are regarded as, for example, damaged areas.

[0071] Then, the display processing means 27 executes a process of displaying the evacuation direction information stored as the initial setting information and the status (S26), and ends the process (END). The evacuation direction is displayed, for example, using a symbol such as an arrow. The evacuation direction information is, for example, similar to that described above. The status is displayed, for example, using a color (for example, a color emitted by a light source such as an LED) or characters. The light source can be a light source such as an LED included in at least one of the device 20 and the fixed structure. For example, when the device 20 includes a display device 106, the display processing means 27 may process to display on the display device 106, or when the fixed structure includes the display device, the display processing means 27 may process to display on the display device.

[0072] The device 20 may further include an evacuation direction information acquisition means 29, for example, as shown in FIG. 9. In this case, the central processing unit 101 may further function as the evacuation direction information acquisition means 29. In this case, the notification means 25 may further link the set status with the identification information stored in the storage means 21 as the initial setting information and notify the management device via the communication means 28. The notification is notified to the management device via another evacuation guiding device (hereinafter also referred to as a master device) that has a master qualification. The master will be described later. Then, the evacuation direction information acquisition means 29 acquires evacuation direction information transmitted from the management device into the mesh network via the communication means 28, for example, following the notification. The evacuation direction information is transmitted from the management device into the mesh network via, for example, a master device. That is, the evacuation direction information acquisition means 29 acquires the evacuation direction information transferred from the master device. Then, the display processing means 27 displays the evacuation direction according to the acquired evacuation direction information. In the evacuation guidance method in the case where the device 20 includes the evacuation direction information acquisition means 29, for example, if the storage means 21 stores the evacuation direction as the initial setting information, the notification of the status by the notification means 25, the acquisition of the evacuation direction information by the evacuation direction information acquisition means 29, and the display processing (also called re-display processing) by the display processing means 27 may be processed in this order after the step (S26) shown in Fig. 8, and then terminated (END). Also, if the storage means 21 does not store the evacuation direction as the initial setting information, for example, the notification of the status by the notification means 25, the acquisition of the evacuation direction information by the evacuation direction information acquisition means 29, and the display processing (S26) by the display processing means 27 may be processed in this order after the step (S25) shown in Fig. 8, and then terminated (END). As a result, for example, the management device can generate safer and more accurate evacuation direction information based on the status, so that the device 20 can display and re-display more accurate evacuation direction information.

[0073] The device 20 may further include a transmission means 210, for example, as shown in FIG. 9. In this case, the central processing unit 101 further functions as the transmission means 210, for example. In this case, the storage means 21 stores the initial setting information executed by the management device in the step (S20) shown in FIG. 8, and stores the identification information as the initial setting information. Then, the transmission means 210 transmits the set identification information to the outside of the mesh network via the communication means 28, for example, after the step (S20). The transmission may be performed after the step (S20), and may be processed in parallel with the steps (S21) to (S26). Thereby, for example, an information registration device described later can acquire the identification information and register the acquisition in an external database, so that the route taken by the target person can be known.

[0074] According to the evacuation guidance device 20 of the present embodiment, for example, the subject can confirm the status of the fixed structure and the evacuation direction information, so that the subject can be guided to evacuate. Furthermore, according to the present device 20, evacuation guidance can be provided not only indoors but also outdoors. In general, for example, starting a guidance app in a smartphone when a disaster occurs and relying on the guidance app to evacuate involves risks such as delays in starting the evacuation and stopping to check the guidance app. However, according to the present device 20, evacuation guidance can be provided smoothly, and the safety of the subject can be ensured. Furthermore, according to the present device 20, evacuation guidance can be provided accurately even in an area where the subject has never been before. Furthermore, according to the present device 20, even at night or when visibility is poor due to rain, the evacuation direction and the status can be displayed on the light source or the display device (display device 106), so visibility is high.

[0075] (Variation 1) FIG. 10 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the evacuation guidance device 30 of this modified example. As shown in FIG. 10, the device 30 further includes a status acquisition means 31, a map information acquisition means 32, a mapping means 33, and a transmission means 34. In this modified example, the evacuation guidance device 30 is similar to the evacuation guidance device 20 of the second embodiment, except that the evacuation guidance device 30 further includes a status acquisition means 31, a map information acquisition means 32, a mapping means 33, and a transmission means 34. The hardware configuration of the evacuation guidance device 30 of this modified example is similar to the evacuation guidance device 20 of the second embodiment shown in FIG. 7, except that the central processing unit 101 further includes a status acquisition means 31, a map information acquisition means 32, a mapping means 33, and a transmission means 34. Unless otherwise specified, the description of the second embodiment can be used for this modified example. The device 30 is also called a master device, for example.

[0076] Next, an example of the evacuation guidance method of this modified example will be described with reference to the flowchart of Fig. 11. The evacuation guidance method of this modified example is carried out as follows, for example, using the evacuation guidance device 30 of Fig. 10. Note that the evacuation guidance method of this modified example is not limited to the use of the evacuation guidance device 30 of Fig. 10.

[0077] The storage means 21 stores in advance initial setting information executed by a management device outside the mesh network, and stores master qualification as the initial setting information (S20). The master qualification is, for example, a qualification indicating that the device is capable of communicating with devices outside the mesh network in the mesh network and has been designated (set) by the management device to grasp the state of the mesh network. When the master qualification is stored, the storage means 21 may further store initial setting information (information about the master), such as a master identification number, the presence or absence of a qualification as a higher-level master, the number of master devices, etc.

[0078] Step (S21) to step (S26) in FIG. 11 are similar to the step (S21) to step (S26) in FIG.

[0079] Next, the status is acquired by the status acquisition means 31 from each of the plurality of evacuation guiding devices constituting the mesh network (S27). The status is associated with, for example, identification information of the evacuation guiding device that has set the status among the plurality of evacuation guiding devices. The step (S27) may be processed after the step (S20), and may be processed in parallel with the steps (S21) to (S25) following the step (S20), for example, as shown in FIG. 11. The step (S27) may also be processed following the step (S25), for example.

[0080] Next, the map information acquisition means 32 acquires map information of the specific area linked with the position information of the plurality of evacuation guiding devices from the management device via the communication means 28 (S28). The step (S28) may be processed after the step (S20), and may be processed in parallel with the steps (S21) to (S25) and the step (S27) following the step (S20), for example, as shown in FIG. 11. The step (S27) and the step (S28) may be processed in order. The order is not particularly limited.

[0081] Next, the mapping means 33 maps (associates) the acquired statuses of the plurality of evacuation guiding devices and the set status of the device 30 onto the acquired map information (S29). This makes it possible to grasp the mesh network.

[0082] Next, the transmitting means 34 transmits the mapped map information to a management device outside the mesh network via the communication means 28 (S30). Then, when all the steps from the step (S20) to the step (S30) have been processed, the process ends (END). The transmission may be transmitted to the management device via another evacuation guidance device (hereinafter also referred to as a sub-master device) that stores a sub-master qualification as the initial setting. The sub-master qualified device is, for example, a qualification indicating that it can communicate with devices outside the mesh network in the mesh network and has been designated (set) by the management device to function as a backup for the evacuation guidance device with the master qualification. The configuration of the sub-master device is the same as that of the present device 30, except that it stores the sub-master qualification. For example, when the status of the present device 30 is "damaged" or "unknown", the sub-master device performs acquisition of the status by the status acquisition means 31, acquisition of the map information by the map information acquisition means 32, mapping by the mapping means 33, and transmission by the transmission means 34 instead of the present device 30. On the other hand, when the status of the device 30 is, for example, "safe" or "edge", the sub-master device acquires the mapped map information from the device 30, stores the mapped map information using the storage means 21, and transmits the mapped map information to a management device outside the mesh network using the transmission means 34.

[0083] According to the evacuation guidance device 30 of this modification, for example, it is possible to hold the state of the mesh network, i.e., information on whether the mesh network is functioning or not, and the status of the plurality of evacuation guidance devices constituting the mesh network. The management device to which the mapped map information is transmitted can generate more accurate evacuation direction information. Therefore, the plurality of evacuation guidance devices including the device 30 that has acquired the evacuation direction information can evacuate the target person to a safer direction.

[0084] FIG. 12 shows an example of evacuation guidance using the evacuation guiding device 20 of the second embodiment and the evacuation guiding device 30 of the first modified example. In FIG. 12, the evacuation guiding devices 20 and 30 are installed in a city with a network of roads (indicated by circles in the figure). The evacuation guiding devices 20 and 30 are, for example, evacuation guiding devices 20 and 30 in street lights. Then, as shown in FIG. 12, the display processing means 27 uses the light source of the lighting unit of the street light to display (light up) the set status in a color corresponding to each status stored as the initial setting. The street light includes, for example, a display device as described above. Then, the display processing means 27 uses the display device of the street light to display the evacuation direction information as an arrow. The arrow is teeth For example, as shown in FIG. 12, each status may be displayed with a corresponding color.

[0085] (Variation 2) The following describes the configuration of the evacuation guiding device 30 when there are a plurality of specific areas. The mesh network is provided for each specific area, and at least one of the evacuation guiding devices 30 described in the first modified example is provided for each specific area. The evacuation guiding devices other than the evacuation guiding device 30 are, for example, the evacuation guiding device 20 described in the second embodiment. A higher-level mesh network is formed by the evacuation guiding devices 30 for each of the plurality of specific areas. In this modified example, the evacuation guiding device 30 in one specific area out of the plurality of specific areas is described.

[0086] Fig. 13 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the evacuation guiding device 30 of this modified example. As shown in Fig. 13, this device 30 further includes an active state detection means 35. In this modified example, the evacuation guiding device 30 is similar to the evacuation guiding device 30 of the modified example 1, except that the evacuation guiding device 30 further includes the active state detection means 35. The hardware configuration in the evacuation guiding device 30 of this modified example is similar to the evacuation guiding device 30 described in the modified example 1 shown in Fig. 10, except that the central processing unit 101 further includes the active state detection means 35. Unless otherwise specified, the descriptions in the modified example 2 and the modified example 1 can be used for this modified example.

[0087] Next, an example of the evacuation guidance method of this modified example will be described with reference to the flowchart of Fig. 14. The evacuation guidance method of this modified example is carried out as follows, for example, using the evacuation guidance device 30 of Fig. 13. Note that the evacuation guidance method of this modified example is not limited to the use of the evacuation guidance device 30 of Fig. 13.

[0088] The storage means 21 stores the initial setting information executed by the management device in advance, and stores the qualification of the upper master as the initial setting information (S20). The qualification of the upper master is, for example, a qualification indicating that the management device has designated (set) the device to grasp the state of the upper mesh network. The device that has the qualification of the upper master, that is, the evacuation guiding device 30 of this modified example, is also called, for example, an upper master device.

[0089] Step (S21) to step (S30) in Fig. 14 are the same as step (S21) to step (S30) in Fig. 11. Specifically, for example, the "mesh network" in the first modification is replaced with "upper mesh network", and the "multiple evacuation guidance devices" is replaced with "multiple evacuation guidance devices (master devices) that are qualified to be masters". This makes it possible to grasp the upper mesh network.

[0090] Next, the activity state detection means 35 detects the activity state of the mesh network for each specific area (S31), and stores the detected activity state in a mesh network activity information database (S32). The activity state is, for example, an index showing the degree to which communication via the mesh network is possible. Specifically, for example, when communication via the mesh network becomes impossible, that is, when the mesh network collapses, the activity state becomes "inactive". When communication via the mesh network is possible, for example, the activity state becomes "active".

[0091] Then, when at least one of the mesh networks in the multiple specific areas becomes inactive, the display processing means 27 further executes a process of displaying the direction of the specific area in which the activity state of the mesh network is active as the evacuation route (S26).

[0092] The step (S31) and the step (S32) may be processed in parallel with the step (S30) after the step (S29), for example, as shown in Fig. 14. The step (S32) may be processed in parallel with the step (S26), for example, as shown in Fig. 14. Then, when all the steps from the step (S20) to the step (S32) have been processed, the process ends (END).

[0093] Specifically, the description will be given with reference to Figs. 15 and 16. Fig. 15 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a higher-level mesh network. Fig. 16 is a schematic diagram showing an example in which the evacuation guidance device 30 of this modified example is applied to a city. In Fig. 15, there are specific areas 1 to 10, and the mesh network is present in each of the specific areas. The higher-level mesh network is configured by connecting the evacuation guidance device 30 (master device) described in the modified example 1 in each of the specific areas with a communication network (the higher-level mesh network is shown by a thick line in Fig. 15). That is, the specific areas 1 to 10 are regarded as one specific area. At least one of these master devices 20 is the evacuation guidance device 30 (higher-level master device) of this modified example. As shown in Figs. 15 and 16, the shape and size of the multiple specific areas may be different for each specific area. As described above, the mesh network is configured by the evacuation guidance device 20 described in the modified example 2 according to the topography, structure, division of a city, town, village, etc. of the specific area. 16, when the mesh network in specific area A becomes inactive (communication unavailable), the evacuation guiding device 30 of this modified example guides the target person toward at least one of specific areas B to G where the mesh network activity state is active. More specifically, for example, it is preferable to guide the target person to a specific area adjacent to specific area A. Furthermore, when there are a plurality of adjacent specific areas, it is preferable to guide the target person to, for example, one of the adjacent specific areas where the activity state is high, that is, the specific area where damage to the evacuation guiding device constituting the mesh network is small.

[0094] According to the evacuation guiding device 30 of this modified example, for example, by configuring a higher-level mesh network, it is possible to provide evacuation guidance over a wider area and ensure the safety of the target persons.

[0095] [Embodiment 3] FIG. 17 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the information registration device 40 of this embodiment. As shown in FIG. 17, the device 40 includes a receiving means 41, a passing information registration means 42, and an evacuation completion information registration means 43. The device 40 is a device that can be carried by the subject. Specifically, for example, it is a personal computer (PC, for example, desktop type, notebook type), a smartphone, a tablet terminal, etc. Also, the device 40 may be, for example, a device in which the program of the present invention is installed. The device 40 can be connected to an external device via the communication line network. The communication line network is, for example, the same as described above.

[0096] 18 illustrates a block diagram of the hardware configuration of the present device 40. The present device 40 includes, for example, a central processing unit (CPU, GPC, etc.) 101, a memory 102, a bus 103, a storage device 104, an input device 105, a display device 106, a communication device 107, etc. Each part of the present device 40 is connected to each other via the bus 103 by each interface (I / F). Unless otherwise specified, the explanation of the first embodiment can be applied to each part of the hardware configuration.

[0097] The central processing unit (central arithmetic processing unit) 101 functions as, for example, a receiving means 41, a passing information registering means 42, and an evacuation completion information registering means 43.

[0098] Next, an example of the information registration method of this embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of Fig. 19. The information registration method of this embodiment is implemented as follows, for example, using the management device 40 of Fig. 17. Note that the information registration method of this embodiment is not limited to use of the information registration device 40 of Fig. 17.

[0099] First, the receiving means 41 receives identification information transmitted by the evacuation guiding device (S41). The evacuation guiding device is a device in a fixed structure installed in a specific area and is a device that constitutes a mesh network. Specifically, for example, it is the evacuation guiding device 20 and 30 described in the second embodiment (including the first and second modifications). The identification information is, as described above, identification information stored by the evacuation guiding device as the initial setting information. The transmission is performed, for example, using BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy).

[0100] Next, the passing information indicating the reception is registered in the passing information database by the passing information registration means 42 (S42). The passing information database is the same as that described above. The passing information includes, for example, the received identification information, the identification information of the device 40, the passing (receiving) date and time, and the like.

[0101] Then, the evacuation completion information registration means 43 registers evacuation completion information indicating that the evacuation of the target person has been completed in the evacuation site in the evacuation completion information database (S43), and ends the process (END). The evacuation completion information database is the same as described above. The evacuation completion information includes, for example, information such as the registration date and time of the evacuation completion information and the identification information of the device 40. For example, when the device 40 includes an electronic tag such as an RFID tag, the evacuation completion information is automatically registered by the evacuation completion information registration means 43 by holding the device 40 over a reading device such as an RFID reader installed in the evacuation site. Also, for example, the evacuation completion information is registered by reading a two-dimensional code installed in the evacuation site with a reading device such as a camera functioning as the evacuation completion information registration means 43.

[0102] According to the information registration device 40 of this embodiment, for example, the evacuation guidance device can ensure the safety of the target person and guide them to evacuation, while registering information about the evacuees, such as the passage information and the evacuation completion information, in each database.

[0103] [Embodiment 4] The evacuation guidance system device of this embodiment includes a first evacuation guidance device, a second evacuation guidance device, and the management device 10 described in the above-mentioned embodiment 1. The first evacuation guidance device is the evacuation guidance device 20 described in the embodiment 2 (excluding the variations 1 and 2), and the second evacuation guidance device is the evacuation guidance device 30 described in the variations 1 and 2. The evacuation guidance device 20 and the evacuation guidance device 30 configure the mesh network. The management device 10 transmits various information within the mesh network via the evacuation guidance device 30. The number of the evacuation guidance devices 20 and the evacuation guidance devices 30 is not particularly limited, and each includes at least one or more.

[0104] The evacuation guidance system device of the present embodiment may further include, for example, the information registration device 40 described in the embodiment 3. The information registration device 40 acquires the identification information transmitted from at least one of the evacuation guidance devices 20 and 30.

[0105] [Embodiment 5] The program of the present embodiment is a program for causing a computer to execute each step of the method described in each of the above embodiments as a procedure. In the present invention, "procedure" may be read as "processing." The program of the present embodiment may be recorded, for example, in a computer-readable recording medium. The recording medium is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a read-only memory (ROM), a hard disk (HD), and an optical disk.

[0106] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to the embodiment, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. Various modifications that can be understood by those skilled in the art can be made to the configuration and details of the present invention within the scope of the present invention.
