DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0009] (Findings on which this disclosure is based) For example, when a group of multiple users lives together in one house, such as a dual-income household, household chores are divided among the multiple users and allocation rules may be established that stipulate the allocation of household chores to each user.

[0010] However, if there are users whose amount of housework done does not satisfy the allocation rules, this may lead to distrust or a sense of unfairness between users.

[0011] In order to solve this problem, the inventor has discovered that by identifying incomplete users based on housework performance history information and allocation rules, creating a compensation plan to compensate those incomplete users for their non-compliance with the allocation rules, and outputting the compensation plan, it is possible to eliminate or reduce distrust or feelings of unfairness among users, and has come up with the present disclosure.

[0012] Next, each aspect of the present disclosure will be described.

[0013] A compensation proposal output method according to one embodiment of the present disclosure includes an information processing device that acquires household chore information indicating the household chore performance history of each of a plurality of users, acquires allocation rules that specify the allocation of household chores to each of the users, identifies non-achieving users among the plurality of users whose amount of household chores based on the household chore information does not satisfy the allocation rules based on the allocation rules, creates a compensation proposal for compensating the non-achieving users for their non-compliance with the allocation rules, and outputs the compensation proposal.

[0014] According to this aspect, the information processing device identifies an incomplete user based on the housework information and the allocation rule, creates a compensation plan for the incomplete user to compensate for the non-fulfillment of the allocation rule, and outputs the compensation plan. This makes it possible to present the compensation plan to the incomplete user. As a result, it becomes possible to eliminate or reduce distrust or unfairness between users by having the incomplete user take compensatory action.

[0015] In the above aspect, the compensation proposal includes at least one of providing money, goods, or gratitude to a user who performs housework on behalf of the non-achieving user, and providing money, goods, or gratitude to a group made up of the multiple users.

[0016] According to this aspect, by having an unattained user provide money, goods, or gratitude to another user or group, it becomes possible to eliminate or reduce distrust or feelings of unfairness between users.

[0017] In the above aspect, the compensation plan includes a subrogation of the household chores assigned to the unsatisfied user to a user who performed the household chores on behalf of the unsatisfied user.

[0018] According to this aspect, by having an unattained user do housework for other users, it is possible to eliminate or reduce distrust or feelings of unfairness between users.

[0019] In the above aspect, the information processing device identifies equipment or facilities located within a specified distance from the equipment or facilities used to perform the substitute housework, and outputs the compensation proposal for the substitution of the housework when the unsatisfied user is using the identified equipment or facilities.

[0020] According to this aspect, the possibility that an unachieved user can carry out the substitute housework increases.

[0021] In the above aspect, the information processing device identifies a date and time when the unachieved user can perform the household chore based on the planned activity information of the unachieved user, and outputs the compensation proposal for the household chore substitution, including the identified date and time.

[0022] According to this aspect, the possibility that an unachieved user can carry out the substitute housework increases.

[0023] In the above aspect, creating the compensation plan includes calculating the amount of living expenses each user is required to cover based on the amount of housework performed within a specified period, or increasing the amount of living expenses each user is required to cover based on the amount of non-compliance with the allocation rules.

[0024] According to this aspect, by having each user bear the living expenses in accordance with the amount of housework performed, or by increasing the living expenses burden of non-achieving users in accordance with the amount of non-compliance with the allocation rules, it is possible to eliminate or reduce distrust or feelings of unfairness among users.

[0025] In the above aspect, the compensation plan includes the introduction of equipment or facilities to improve the efficiency of the housework assigned to the non-achieving user.

[0026] According to this aspect, by proposing the introduction of a device or equipment for improving the efficiency of housework, the possibility that the allocation rules will be satisfied by unattained users increases after the device or equipment is introduced.

[0027] In the above aspect, the information processing device acquires input information entered by each user to perform a specific housework, confirms the validity of the input information based on operation log information of an appliance or facility operated when the specific housework is performed, or video data capturing the location where the specific housework is performed, and creates the housework information based on the input information whose validity has been confirmed.

[0028] According to this aspect, when each user inputs the performance of a specific household chore, the validity of the input information can be confirmed based on operation log information or video data, thereby improving the credibility of the household chore information.

[0029] A compensation plan output device according to one embodiment of the present disclosure includes an acquisition unit that acquires household chore information indicating the household chore performance history of each of a plurality of users and an allocation rule that specifies the allocation of household chores to each of the users, a determination unit that identifies, based on the allocation rule, short-time users among the plurality of users whose amount of household chores performed based on the household chore information does not satisfy the allocation rule, a compensation plan creation unit that creates a compensation plan to compensate the short-time users for their non-compliance with the allocation rule, and an output unit that outputs the compensation plan.

[0030] According to this aspect, the determination unit identifies an unachieved user based on the housework information and the allocation rules, the compensation plan creation unit creates a compensation plan for the unachieved user to compensate for non-fulfillment of the allocation rules, and the output unit outputs the compensation plan. This makes it possible to present a compensation plan to the unachieved user. As a result, it becomes possible to eliminate or reduce distrust or unfairness between users by having the unachieved user take compensatory action.

[0031] A program according to one aspect of the present disclosure causes an information processing device to function as: an acquisition means for acquiring housework information indicating the housework performance history of each of a plurality of users and an allocation rule that specifies the allocation of housework to each of the users; a determination means for identifying, based on the allocation rule, non-achieving users among the plurality of users whose amount of housework performed based on the housework information does not satisfy the allocation rule; a compensation plan creation means for creating a compensation plan to compensate the non-achieving users for their non-compliance with the allocation rule; and an output means for outputting the compensation plan.

[0032] According to this aspect, the determination means identifies the non-achieving user based on the housework information and the allocation rule, the compensation plan creation means creates a compensation plan for the non-achieving user to compensate for the non-satisfaction of the allocation rule, and the output means outputs the compensation plan. This makes it possible to present a compensation plan to the non-achieving user. As a result, it becomes possible to eliminate or reduce distrust or unfairness between users by having the non-achieving user take compensatory action.

[0033] The present disclosure can also be realized as a program that causes a computer to execute each characteristic configuration included in such a method or device, or as a system operated by this program. Furthermore, it goes without saying that such a computer program can be distributed on a computer-readable non-transitory recording medium such as a CD-ROM or via a communication network such as the Internet.

[0034] (Embodiments of the present disclosure) Hereinafter, the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Elements with the same reference numerals in different drawings indicate the same or corresponding elements. In addition, the components, the arrangement positions of the components, the connection forms, and the order of operations shown in the following embodiments are merely examples and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. The present disclosure is limited only by the claims. Therefore, among the components in the following embodiments, the components not described in the independent claims showing the highest concept of the present disclosure are described as constituting a more preferred form, although they are not necessarily required to achieve the objectives of the present disclosure.

[0035] (First embodiment) FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an overall configuration of a home control system 1 according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure. The home control system 1 includes a smart home 100, a communication network 20, and a server device 30. Although only one smart home 100 is shown in FIG. 1 for the sake of simplicity, a plurality of smart homes 100 may be provided. Note that the application of the present disclosure is not limited to homes such as the smart home 100, but may also be indoor facilities such as offices, restaurants, and commercial facilities. In addition, the application is not limited to indoor facilities, but may also be a space including both indoor and outdoor spaces.

[0036] The smart home 100 has multiple spaces (rooms, bathrooms, toilets, entrances, corridors, etc.) in which multiple devices 11 and multiple facilities 12 are installed. The devices 11 include electronic devices such as home appliances. The devices 11 are any IoT devices such as air conditioners, TVs, refrigerators, rice cookers, microwaves, and lighting. The facilities 12 include appliances or furniture used in fixed locations. The devices 11 also include devices 19 equipped with monitors 14 such as LCDs or organic EL displays. The same applies to the facilities 12.

[0037] Additionally, the smart home 100 is provided with a plurality of monitors 13 and a plurality of cameras 15. The monitors 13 are provided near the devices 11 or facilities 12 that the user uses when performing housework. The cameras 15 capture images of the user residing in the smart home 100 performing the housework.

[0038] The smart home 100 is also provided with an integrated controller 10 for controlling the operation of the devices 11 and facilities 12 that are to be controlled among the multiple devices 11 and multiple facilities 12. The integrated controller 10 is capable of mutual data communication with the devices 11 and facilities 12 that are to be controlled via a communication network 20 (or a wireless LAN, etc.) such as a public line network.

[0039] The server device 30 is a cloud server or an edge server, etc., and manages the entire home control system. The server device 30 can perform data communication with the integrated controller 10, the devices 11, the facilities 12, the monitors 13, and the cameras 15 via the communication network 20. Note that the functions of the server device 30 may be implemented in the integrated controller 10.

[0040] 2 is a diagram showing a simplified configuration of the server device 30. The server device 30 includes a communication unit 40, an information processing unit 50, and a storage unit 60.

[0041] The communication unit 404 is configured to include a communication module compatible with any communication method such as IP.

[0042] The storage unit 60 is configured to include an HDD, an SSD, a flash memory, or the like. The storage unit 60 stores installation information 61, floor plan information 62, user information 63, allocation rules 64, housework information 65, compensation rules 66, and a program 80. The installation information 61 is information indicating the installation locations of the devices 11, the equipment 12, the monitor 13, the camera 15, and the integrated controller 10 in the smart home 100. The floor plan information 62 is information indicating the floor plans of the multiple spaces in the smart home 100. The user information 63 is information indicating the users residing in the smart home 100. In the following example, a situation is assumed in which multiple users forming a group reside in the smart home 100. The allocation rules 64 are information that stipulate the allocation of housework to each user. The housework information 65 is information indicating the housework execution history of each user, and the amount of housework execution (i.e., the amount of housework) can be calculated based on the housework execution history. The compensation rule 66 is information indicating a compensation plan for compensating a non-attaining user for the amount of housework done that does not satisfy the allocation rule 64 when there is a user (hereinafter referred to as a “non-attaining user”).

[0043] The information processing unit 50 includes a housekeeping information creation unit 51, an acquisition unit 52, a determination unit 53, a compensation plan creation unit 54, and an output unit 55 as functions realized by a CPU or the like executing a program 80 read from the storage unit 60 to a ROM or RAM, etc. In other words, the program 80 is a program for causing the information processing unit 50 mounted on the server device 30 as a compensation plan output device to function as the housekeeping information creation unit 51, the acquisition unit 52, the determination unit 53, the compensation plan creation unit 54, and the output unit 55.

[0044] FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the flow of the process executed by the information processing unit 50.

[0045] First, in step S100, acquisition unit 52 acquires housekeeping information 65 by reading it from storage unit 60. Housekeeping information 65 is created in advance by housekeeping information creation unit 51 and stored in storage unit 60.

[0046] 4 is a diagram showing a simplified example of housework information 65. Housework information 65 has an item indicating a task, which is a type of housework, an item indicating a user who performed the housework, and an item indicating the date and time when the housework was performed. For example, it shows that laundry was performed by user A from 9:00 to 9:30 on March 1, 2021.

[0047] The household information creation unit 51 can identify information for each item of the household information 65 based on operation information received from the appliance 11 or facility 12 (e.g., appliance ID, facility ID, operation date and time information, and operating user information if a user ID or the like is input during operation), or by analyzing video data received from the camera 15.

[0048] The acquisition unit 52 calculates the amount of housework for each user for each task by aggregating the housework information 65 accumulated within a predetermined period. The predetermined period is, for example, one day, one week, or one month. The amount of housework may be the total time spent performing the housework or the total number of times the housework is performed.

[0049] 5 is a simplified diagram showing an example of the aggregated data 70. The acquisition unit 52 calculates the percentage of housework volume for each user within the specified period for each task. In this example, with regard to laundry, the percentage of housework volume for user A is "80%," and the percentage of housework volume for user B is "20%."

[0050] Next, in step S200, the acquisition unit 52 acquires the allocation rule 64 by reading it from the storage unit 60.

[0051] 6 is a simplified diagram showing an example of the allocation rule 64. The allocation rule 64 is information that defines the allocation of housework to each user for each task. In this example, the allocation of housework is defined by the proportion of the amount of housework, and for example, the proportion of the amount of housework for both user A and user B is set to "50%" for laundry.

[0052] Next, in step S300, the determination unit 53 determines whether or not there is a non-achieving user among the multiple users whose amount of housework done does not satisfy the allocation rule 64, based on the acquired housework information 65 and the allocation rule 64. In this example, with regard to laundry and toilet cleaning, the actual amount of user B (FIG. 5) does not satisfy the planned amount (FIG. 6), so the determination unit 53 identifies user B as a non-achieving user.

[0053] If there is a non-attainment user (step S300: YES), then in step S400, the compensation plan creating unit 54 creates a compensation plan based on the compensation rule 66 to make up for the non-attainment of the allocation rule 64 to the non-attainment user.

[0054] FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a simplified example of the compensation rule 66. In the example of FIG. 7, three plans are prepared. The first plan is to provide money, goods, or a message of thanks to a user (user A in this example) who performed housework on behalf of an unachieved user (user B in this example). The second plan is to provide money, goods, or a message of thanks to the entire group excluding the unachieved user. The third plan is to substitute the housework assigned to the user who performed housework on behalf of the unachieved user. The compensation plan creation unit 54 may create all of the first to third plans as compensation plans, or may create any one of the first to third plans as a compensation plan.

[0055] In addition, the compensation plan creating unit 54 may create a compensation plan different from the above-mentioned plans 1 to 3. For example, the compensation plan may be created to introduce a device or equipment (such as a robot vacuum cleaner, a fully automatic washer-dryer, or a fully automatic dishwasher-dryer) for improving the efficiency of the housework assigned to the unachieved user.

[0056] In addition, when creating the above-mentioned third plan as a compensation plan, the compensation plan creation unit 54 may store action schedule information for each user, identify the date and time when the incomplete user can perform the housework on behalf of the incomplete user based on the action schedule information of the incomplete user, and create a compensation plan including the identified date and time. Alternatively, the compensation plan creation unit 54 may create the third plan as a compensation plan when the incomplete user has been staying at the place where the housework is to be performed or in the vicinity thereof for a predetermined period of time or more based on location information indicating the current location of the incomplete user. Alternatively, the compensation plan creation unit 54 may create the third plan as a compensation plan when the incomplete user is using the appliance 11 or facility 12 for performing the housework on behalf of the incomplete user based on real-time operation information of the appliance 11 or facility 12. Alternatively, the compensation plan creation unit 54 may identify, based on the installation information 61, equipment 11 or equipment 12 (hereinafter referred to as "nearby equipment") that is close to (i.e., located within a specified distance from) the equipment 11 or facility 12 used to perform the substitute housework, and, based on real-time operation information of the equipment 11 or facility 12, create a third plan as a compensation plan when the unmet user is using the nearby equipment.

[0057] Furthermore, the compensation plan creation unit 54 may retain table information indicating similar household chores, and when an unachieved user is performing a first household chore, may suggest performing a second household chore that is the same as or similar to the first household chore.

[0058] Furthermore, when the amount of housework assigned to a certain user is extremely large, the compensation plan creating unit 54 may transmit a proposal to help with the housework to other users.

[0059] Next, in step S500, the output unit 55 outputs the compensation plan created by the compensation plan creation unit 54. Data indicating the compensation plan is input from the output unit 55 to the communication unit 40, and transmitted from the communication unit 40 to the smart home 100 via the communication network 20, and the compensation plan is displayed on the monitors 13, 14, and 18. Note that the data indicating the compensation plan may be transmitted to a smartphone of a previously registered unachieved user and displayed on the screen of the smartphone.

[0060] If there are no unreached users (step S300: NO), the process ends without executing steps S400 and S500.

[0061] According to this embodiment, the information processing unit 50 identifies an incomplete user based on the housework information 65 and the allocation rules 64, creates a compensation plan for the incomplete user to compensate for non-compliance with the allocation rules 64, and outputs the compensation plan. This makes it possible to present a compensation plan to the incomplete user. As a result, it becomes possible to eliminate or reduce distrust or a sense of unfairness between users by having the incomplete user take compensatory action.

[0062] Second embodiment FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing details of the process of step S400 shown in FIG.

[0063] In this embodiment, in step S401, the compensation plan creation unit 54 calculates the amount of each user's share of the total living expenses of the entire group for a predetermined unit period (for example, one month) according to the amount of housework performed by each user within that unit period. (Total execution amount of all users - execution amount of each user) / Total execution amount of all users * Total living expenses The amount to be paid by each user is calculated by executing the following calculation:

[0064] Alternatively, the compensation plan creation unit 54 may increase the living expenses burden of the non-achieving user in accordance with the amount of shortfall in the allocation rule 64 (for example, the difference value obtained by subtracting the execution amount from the allocation amount) with respect to the predetermined living expenses burden rule, and may reduce the burden amounts of other users accordingly.

[0065] If a user (e.g., user A) is unable to perform the chores assigned to him / her due to unexpected circumstances, user A can request another user to perform the chores on his / her behalf. If the other user agrees to perform the chores on his / her behalf, the allocation rules 64 are changed accordingly, and the living expenses shared by both users are recalculated. If there is no other user who agrees to perform the chores on his / her behalf, user A may delete the chores that he / she cannot perform from the allocation rules 64 for a limited period (or number of times), and the original allocation rules 64 are automatically restored after the period has elapsed.

[0066] According to this embodiment, by having each user bear the living expenses according to the amount of housework performed, or by increasing the living expenses burden of non-achieving users according to the amount of non-fulfillment of allocation rule 64, it is possible to eliminate or reduce distrust or feelings of unfairness among users.

[0067] Third embodiment In this embodiment, a case will be described in which a chore execution history is available but the user (the person who performed the chore) is unknown.

[0068] Fig. 9 is a diagram showing a simplified configuration of the server device 30 according to the third embodiment. Based on the configuration shown in Fig. 2, the information processing unit 50 further includes a validity checking unit 56, and the storage unit 60 further stores operation log information 67, video data 68, and input information 69.

[0069] When there is a performance history of a specific chore whose executor is unknown, the server device 30 transmits a message to the smart home 100 via the communication network 20 to inquire about the executor. The message is displayed on the monitors 13, 14, and 18.

[0070] Fig. 10 is a flowchart showing the flow of processing executed by the validity confirmation unit 56. Figs. 11 to 13 are simplified diagrams showing examples of messages for inquiring about an entity that will perform a particular household chore.

[0071] 11 is sent periodically (for example, once a day) to a specific user. When the user selects the "Yes" icon for each task included in the message, input information indicating that the user is the executor of the task is returned to the server device 30.

[0072] 12 is sent without specifying a user when the device 11 or the facility 12 is started. When a user is selected from among the multiple users included in the message, input information indicating that the subject of execution of the task is the selected user is returned to the server device 30.

[0073] 13 is sent to a specific user when the device 11 or the facility 12 is started. When the user selects the “Yes” icon included in the message, input information indicating that the subject of executing the task is the user is returned to the server device 30.

[0074] 10, first, in step S001, validity confirmation unit 56 acquires input information returned to server device 30.

[0075] Next, in step S002, the validity confirmation unit 56 confirms the validity (probability or credibility) of the input information by comparing the acquired input information with operation log information 67 of the device 11 or facility 12 operated when the specific household chore is performed, or with video data 68 captured by the camera 15 of the location where the specific household chore is performed.

[0076] 14 is a simplified diagram showing an example of operation log information 67. The operation log information 67 includes time information indicating the date and time when the appliance 11 or facility 12 was operating. Therefore, the validity confirmation unit 56 can determine the validity of the input information by referring to the time information included in the operation log information 67. If the appliance 11 or facility 12 used to perform the housework was not operating at the date and time when the housework was performed indicated by the input information, the validity confirmation unit 56 determines that the validity of the input information cannot be confirmed.

[0077] Next, in step S003, housekeeping information creation unit 51 creates housekeeping information 65 based on the input information whose validity has been confirmed by validity confirmation unit 56.

[0078] When multiple users return input information for one chore, the chore information creation unit 51 counts the total number of times or the total time divided by the number of users as the amount of work performed by each user. Alternatively, the chore information creation unit 51 may count the ratio of the number of times or the time of each user to the total number of times or the total time as the amount of work performed by each user. Alternatively, the chore information creation unit 51 may count the number of times or the time reported by each user as the amount of work performed by each user.

[0079] 15 is a simplified diagram showing a modified example of a message for inquiring about the entity that will perform a particular chore. The server device 30 transmits the message to the user to whom the chore is assigned in the assignment rule 64. The message is transmitted, for example, when the use of the appliance 11 or the facility 12 is terminated (shut down). If the user selects the "No" icon included in the message, or if neither the "Yes" nor the "No" icon is selected, input information indicating that the user is the entity that will perform the task is returned to the server device 30.

[0080] According to this embodiment, when each user inputs input information reporting the performance of a specific household chore, the validity verification unit 56 verifies the validity of the input information based on the operation log information 67 or the video data 68, thereby making it possible to improve the credibility of the household chore information. [Industrial Applicability]

[0081] The present disclosure is particularly useful when applied to a home control system equipped with a smart home in which IoT technology is implemented. [Explanation of symbols]
