Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0019] 1. Configuration FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of a monitoring system 10 according to an embodiment. The monitoring system 10 provides a monitoring service for monitoring abnormalities such as intrusion into a monitoring area 50 where users enter and exit. The monitoring area 50 is, for example, a residence where a user lives, and the term "living" here is not necessarily limited to living, but also includes staying continuously to a certain extent. In addition, in order to enhance the user experience of the monitoring service obtained by the user and enhance the motivation to make better use of the monitoring service, the monitoring system 10 analyzes the utilization status of the monitoring service and notifies the user of the analysis result when the user returns to the residence.

[0020] The monitoring system 10 includes a plurality of sensors 100, a controller 200, a setting unit 300, a server device 400, a wearable terminal 500, and a user terminal 600. The plurality of sensors 100, the controller 200, and the setting unit 300 are installed in the monitoring area 50 such as the user's residence and are connected via a communication network 11 such as a LAN (Local Area Network). The server device 400 is installed in a monitoring center operated by a business operator providing the monitoring service. Both the wearable terminal 500 and the user terminal 600 are possessed by the user. The controller 200, the server device 400, and the user terminal 600 are connected via a communication network 12 including the Internet and a mobile communication network. The wearable terminal 500 and the user terminal 600 are pre-paired and connected wirelessly.

[0021] The plurality of sensors 100 are used for intrusion monitoring purposes to detect intruders into the monitoring area 50. When the monitoring area 50 is a residence, the plurality of sensors 100 include sensors 100 installed indoors in the residence (hereinafter also referred to as "indoor sensors 100") and sensors 100 installed outdoors in the residence (hereinafter also referred to as "outdoor sensors 100"). The indoor sensors 100 are installed, for example, at openings such as the front door and windows, at traffic line parts such as passages in the residence, and in rooms. The outdoor sensors 100 are installed, for example, in the garden and on the gate. The plurality of sensors 100 include window / door sensors and human presence sensors.

[0022] Window / door sensors are installed in openings such as front doors, windows, and gates, and detect the opening of doors and windows. Examples of window / door sensors include sensors that detect the opening of a door by detecting changes in a magnetic field, and sensors that detect the opening of a door by turning a tamper switch on / off. Human presence sensors, also known as spatial sensors, are installed along traffic lines or in rooms to detect the presence of people. Examples of human presence sensors include sensors that detect the presence of people by fluctuations in heat rays, sensors that detect the presence of people by sound waves or high frequencies, sensors that detect the presence of people from an input image, and sensors that detect the presence of people by blocking the incident light from a light-projecting unit.

[0023] The controller 200 monitors for intrusions into the monitoring area 50 where users enter and exit, using the sensor 100, based on a security mode set in response to a user's operation. The controller 200 is an example of a "security device" according to the present invention. When an intruder is detected by the sensor 100, the controller 200 notifies the server device 400 that an intruder has intruded into the monitoring area 50. The controller 200 has three security modes: an unmanned security mode, a manned security mode, and a release mode. Since the unmanned security mode and the manned security mode are both security modes for monitoring the monitoring area 50, in the following description, the unmanned security mode and the manned security mode will be collectively referred to as "security modes."

[0024] The unmanned alert mode is a security mode that monitors the entire monitored area 50. The unmanned alert mode is used when the user goes out and the monitored area 50 is unmanned. In the unmanned alert mode, when detection information is output from the sensor 100, an abnormality signal is transmitted from the controller 200 to the server device 400. When the unmanned alert mode is set, it is preferable that the sensor 100 monitoring the user's exit route starts detecting an intruder after a predetermined time has elapsed since the unmanned alert mode was set, so as not to erroneously detect an outgoing user as an intruder.

[0025] The manned alert mode is a security mode for monitoring a part of the monitoring area 50. The manned alert mode is used when a user is present in the monitoring area 50 and an intruder is monitored in a part where the user is not present. For example, in the manned alert mode, a predetermined outer perimeter area such as a front door, a window, a gate, or the outside of a residence is monitored to detect an intrusion into the monitoring area 50 from the outside. Alternatively, an area designated by a user's operation among a plurality of areas included in the monitoring area 50 may be monitored. In the manned alert mode, when detection information is output from a sensor 100 installed in the outer perimeter area or a designated area (e.g., the second floor), an abnormality signal is transmitted from the controller 200 to the server device 400. On the other hand, even if detection information is output from a sensor 100 installed in a place other than the outer perimeter area or the designated area, this detection information is ignored and an abnormality signal is not transmitted from the controller 200 to the server device 400.

[0026] The release mode is a security mode that does not monitor the monitored area 50. The release mode is used when there is no need to monitor for intruders. In the release mode, monitoring for intruders into the monitored area 50 is not performed, and even if detection information is output from the sensor 100, this detection information is ignored and no abnormality signal is transmitted from the controller 200 to the server device 400.

[0027] The setting unit 300 accepts an operation to set the security mode of the controller 200. For example, the setting unit 300 is installed at the entrance of a residence, and is used to set the security mode when going out or returning to the residence.

[0028] When the server device 400 receives an abnormality signal from the controller 200, it outputs information about the monitored area 50 and the user, thereby prompting the person in charge of the monitoring sensor to check with the user or for a security guard rushing to the monitored area 50 to take action.

[0029] The wearable terminal 500 is worn on a part of the user's body such as the arm. The wearable terminal 500 detects various types of information regarding the user and is used for input / output of various types of information regarding the monitoring service. The wearable terminal 500 communicates with the user terminal 600 and performs a process of notifying the user of the analysis result of the utilization status of the security mode under the instruction of the user terminal 600. Examples of the wearable terminal 500 include a wristwatch-type wearable terminal, a ring-type wearable terminal, and a glasses-type wearable terminal.

[0030] The user terminal 600 is carried by the user in a bag or pocket. The user terminal 600 cooperates with the wearable terminal 500 and performs a process for notifying the user of the analysis result of the utilization status of the security mode. Further, the user terminal 600 communicates with the controller 200 via the server device 400 and acquires the setting history of the security mode used for the analysis of the utilization status of the security mode. Examples of the user terminal 600 include a smartphone, a mobile phone, a personal computer, and a tablet terminal. Both the wearable terminal 500 and the user terminal 600 are examples of the "portable terminal" according to the present invention.

[0031]

[0032] ​The control unit 201 is a processor that controls each part of the device itself and performs various processes. For example, the control unit 201 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit). The storage unit 202 is a memory that stores programs for realizing the functions of the device itself and various data such as the currently set security mode. For example, the storage unit 202 includes at least one of a ROM (Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), an HDD (Hard Disk Drive), and an SSD (Solid State Drive). The communication unit 203 is a communication interface for connecting the device itself to the communication networks 11 and 12. The communication unit 203 is used to communicate with other devices connected via the communication network 11 or 12.

[0033] The operation unit 204 receives various operations on the device itself, such as an operation for setting the security mode. For example, the operation unit 204 includes a touch sensor that receives operations on the screen of the display unit 205 and an operation button that receives an operation for setting the security mode. The display unit 205 displays various information such as the currently set security mode, the state of the sensor 100, and information indicating the installation location of the sensor 100. For example, the display unit 205 includes a liquid crystal display. Further, the display unit 205 may be configured as a touch panel in combination with the touch sensor. The sounding unit 206 outputs various sounds such as a sound for notifying the occurrence of an abnormality and a message voice. For example, the sounding unit 206 includes a speaker.

[0034] The control unit 201 functions as an acquisition means 211, a setting means 212, and a transmission means 213. These functions are realized by the control unit 201 executing a program stored in the storage unit 202, and the control unit 201 performing calculations or controlling each part of the controller 200.

[0035] When an operation for setting the security mode is performed using the setting unit 300, the acquisition means 211 acquires operation information indicating this operation.

[0036] The setting means 212 sets any one of a plurality of security modes according to the operation of the user. When an operation for setting the security mode is performed using the operation unit 204, the setting means 212 sets the security mode corresponding to this operation. When an operation for setting the security mode is performed using the setting unit 300, the setting means 212 sets the security mode corresponding to the operation information acquired by the acquisition means 211.

[0037] The transmission means 213 transmits security mode information indicating the security mode set by the setting means 212 to the server device 400. The security mode information may be transmitted each time the security mode is changed, or each time the security mode is changed, the security mode information is temporarily stored in the storage unit 202 and transmitted collectively at a predetermined time interval. The security mode information includes information indicating the type of the set security mode and the setting date and time of the security mode.

[0038] FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the server device 400. The server device 400 includes a control unit 401, a storage unit 402, and a communication unit 403. Each part of the server device 400 is connected via a bus. The control unit 401, the storage unit 402, and the communication unit 403 are basically the same as the control unit 201, the storage unit 202, and the communication unit 203 of the controller 200, respectively. However, the communication unit 403 is a communication interface for connecting the own device to the communication network 12 and is used to communicate with other devices connected via the communication network 12.

[0039] The functions of the server device 400 are realized by the control unit 401 executing a program stored in the storage unit 402, and the control unit 401 performing calculations or controlling each part of the server device 400.

[0040] FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the wearable terminal 500. The wearable terminal 500 includes a control unit 501, a storage unit 502, a communication unit 503, an operation unit 504, a display unit 505, and a sensor unit 506. Each unit of the wearable terminal 500 is connected via a bus. The control unit 501, the storage unit 502, the operation unit 504, and the display unit 505 are basically the same as the control unit 201, the storage unit 202, the operation unit 204 of the controller 200, and the display unit 205, respectively. However, an application program for realizing the functions of the wearable terminal 500 is stored in the storage unit 502. The operation unit 504 includes, for example, a touch sensor that accepts operations on the screen of the display unit 505 and operation buttons that accept various operations. The display unit 505 is an example of the "display means" according to the present invention. The communication unit 503 is used to wirelessly communicate with the user terminal 600 according to a wireless communication standard. The communication unit 503 pairs with the user terminal 600.

[0041] The sensor unit 506 includes various sensors that detect various information about the wearable terminal 500 or the user. The sensor unit 506 includes a GPS (Global Positioning System) or GNSS (global navigation satellite system) receiver, a geomagnetic sensor, an altimeter, a blood oxygen concentration sensor, a heart rate sensor, an acceleration sensor, and a gyro sensor. The GPS or GNSS receiver receives signals from GPS or GNSS satellites and measures the position of the wearable terminal 500 based on the received signals. The geomagnetic sensor measures the direction of the wearable terminal 500 by detecting the geomagnetism. The altimeter measures the altitude of the wearable terminal 500. The blood oxygen concentration sensor measures the oxygen concentration in the user's blood. The heart rate sensor measures the user's heart rate. The acceleration sensor measures the acceleration of the wearable terminal 500. The gyro sensor measures the angular velocity of the wearable terminal 500. Note that the sensors included in the sensor unit 506 are not limited to the above-described sensors. Other sensors may be included in the sensor unit 506.

[0042] The control unit 501 functions as a measurement unit 511, a transmission unit 512, a display control unit 513, a change request unit 514, and a notification unit 515. These functions are realized by the control unit 501 executing a program stored in the storage unit 502, performing calculations by the control unit 501, or controlling each part of the wearable terminal 500.

[0043] The measurement unit 511 measures various measurement values related to the health management of the user using the detection results of the sensor unit 506. The measurement of these measurement values is performed using known techniques. These measurement values are classified into measurement values related to the user's living body and measurement values related to the user's activities. For example, the measurement values related to the user's living body include the level of oxygen taken into the blood, the heart rate at rest or during walking, and the electrocardiogram. In addition, the measurement values related to the user's activities include the number of steps, the moving distance during walking or running, the walking asymmetry, the step width, the walking speed, the exercise time equal to or more than brisk walking, the time of standing and moving per unit time, the calorie consumption during active or resting, and the workout information.

[0044] The transmission unit 512 transmits healthcare data indicating the measurement values measured by the measurement unit 511 to the user terminal 600. The healthcare data includes the measurement values measured by the measurement unit 511 and the measurement date and time. The healthcare data is transmitted, for example, at a predetermined time interval.

[0045] When a user who is out approaches the monitoring area 50, the display control unit 513 causes the display unit 505 to display an operation image used for an operation to change to the release mode.

[0046] The change request unit 514 makes a change request to the controller 200 to the release mode in response to an operation using the operation image displayed on the display unit 505.

[0047] When the user returns to the monitoring area 50, the notification unit 515 notifies the user of the analysis result of the utilization status of the security mode and the analysis result of the user's activity status.

[0048] FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the user terminal 600. The user terminal 600 includes a control unit 601, a storage unit 602, a communication unit 603, an operation unit 604, a display unit 605, and a sensor unit 606. Each unit of the user terminal 600 is connected via a bus. The control unit 601, the storage unit 602, the communication unit 603, the operation unit 604, the display unit 605, and the sensor unit 606 are basically the same as the control unit 201, the storage unit 202 of the controller 200, the communication unit 403 of the server device 400, the operation unit 204, the display unit 205 of the controller 200, and the sensor unit 506 of the wearable terminal 500, respectively. However, an application program for realizing the functions of the user terminal 600 is stored in the storage unit 602. The communication unit 603 is further used for wireless communication with the wearable terminal 500 according to a wireless communication standard. The communication unit 603 performs pairing with the wearable terminal 500. The operation unit 604 includes, for example, a touch sensor that receives operations on the screen of the display unit 605 and operation buttons that receive various operations.

[0049] The control unit 601 functions as a determination means 611, a display instruction means 612, an acquisition means 613, a first analysis means 614, a second analysis means 615, and a notification instruction means 616. These functions are realized by the control unit 601 executing a program stored in the storage unit 602, performing calculations by the control unit 601, or controlling each unit of the user terminal 600.

[0050] The determination means 611 determines the user's going out from the monitoring area 50, returning to the monitoring area 50, and approaching the monitoring area 50. Here, "returning" means returning to the monitoring area 50. The monitoring area 50 is not necessarily limited to the user's home and may be a place other than the user's home. Therefore, "returning" is not limited to returning home and includes returning to a place other than one's own home. For example, when the building where the user works is set as the monitoring area 50, going to work or returning from a business trip is regarded as returning, and going out of the building is regarded as going out.

[0051] As a method for determining the user's going out from the monitoring area 50, for example, a neighboring area 51 is set in advance around the monitoring area 50, and when the position measured by the GPS or GNSS receiver of the sensor unit 606 moves out from within this neighboring area 51, there is a method of determining that the user has gone out from the monitoring area 50. As a method for determining the approach to the monitoring area 50, when the position measured by the GPS or GNSS receiver of the sensor unit 606 moves from outside to inside the neighboring area 51, there is a method of determining that the user has approached the monitoring area 50. As a method for determining the return to the monitoring area 50, when it is determined that the user has approached the monitoring area 50 and the mode is changed to the release mode according to the operation using the operation image displayed on the wearable terminal 500, in order to indicate that the user has entered a situation where they can enter the monitoring area 50, there is a method of determining that the user has returned to the monitoring area 50.

[0052] When the determination means 611 determines that the user has approached the monitoring area 50, the display instruction means 612 instructs the wearable terminal 500 to display an operation image used for the operation of changing to the release mode.

[0053] When the determination means 611 determines that the user has returned to the monitoring area 50, the acquisition means 613 acquires the setting history of the security mode during the analysis target period from the server device 400.

[0054] The first analysis means 614 analyzes the utilization status of the security mode using the setting history acquired by the acquisition means 613. The first analysis means 614 performs statistical processing on the usage time of each security mode and evaluates the utilization status of the security mode using the result of the statistical processing. For example, the first analysis means 614 evaluates the utilization status of the security mode using the total usage time of the warning mode. At this time, the first analysis means 614 gives a higher evaluation as the total usage time of the warning mode is longer.

[0055] The second analysis means 615 analyzes the activity status of the user using the healthcare data acquired from the wearable terminal 500. The second analysis means 615 performs statistical processing on the measured values included in the healthcare data.

[0056] When the determination means 611 determines that the user has returned to the monitoring area 50, the notification instruction means 616 instructs the wearable terminal 500 to notify the user of the analysis results of the first analysis means 614 and the second analysis means 615. The notification instruction means 616 is an example of the "transmission means" according to the present invention.

[0057] 2. Operations FIG. 6 is a sequence chart showing an example of the operation of the monitoring system 10. Here, a series of operations until the user in the monitoring area 50 goes out and returns will be described.

[0058] In step S11, the determination means 611 of the user terminal 600 determines whether the user has gone out of the monitoring area 50. For example, when the position measured by the GPS or GNSS receiver of the sensor unit 606 is included in the vicinity area 51, since the user is considered to be within the monitoring area 50, it is determined that the user has not gone out of the monitoring area 50 (the determination in step S11 is NO). In this case, the determination in step S11 is repeated. On the other hand, when the position measured by the GPS or GNSS receiver of the sensor unit 606 has moved outside the vicinity area 51, it indicates that the user has already gone out of the monitoring area 50, so it is determined that the user has gone out of the monitoring area 50 (the determination in step S11 is YES). In this case, the process proceeds to step S12.

[0059] In step S12, the determination means 611 of the user terminal 600 determines whether the user has approached the monitoring area 50. For example, if the position measured by the GPS or GNSS receiver of the sensor unit 606 is not included in the vicinity area 51, it is determined that the user has not approached the monitoring area 50 (the determination in step S12 is NO), and the determination in step S12 is repeated. On the other hand, for example, if the position measured by the GPS or GNSS receiver of the sensor unit 606 moves from outside to inside the vicinity area 51, it is determined that the user has approached the monitoring area 50 (the determination in step S12 is YES), and the process proceeds to step S13.

[0060] In step S13, the display instruction means 612 of the user terminal 600 determines whether the current security mode set for the monitoring area 50 is the alert mode. There are several examples of how to determine whether the current security mode is the alert mode. As one example, prior to this process, the transmission means 213 of the controller 200 transmits security mode information indicating the security mode set by the setting means 212 to the user terminal 600 via the server device 400. At this time, the security mode information is first transmitted from the controller 200 to the server device 400, transferred from the server device 400 to the user terminal 600, and received by the user terminal 600. In the user terminal 600, the received security mode information is stored in the storage unit 602. Note that the security mode information may be transmitted each time the security mode is changed, or each time the security mode is changed, the security mode information is temporarily stored in the storage unit 202 of the controller 200 and transmitted collectively at a predetermined time interval. This security mode information includes the setting date and time of the security mode. The display instruction means 612 of the user terminal 600 determines whether the current security mode is the alert mode using the latest security mode information stored in the storage unit 602.

[0061] As another example, prior to this process, the transmission means 213 of the controller 200 transmits security mode information indicating the security mode set by the setting means 212 to the server device 400. In the server device 400, the security mode information received from the controller 200 is stored in the storage unit 402. Note that, similar to the example described above, the security mode information may be transmitted each time the security mode is changed, or may be transmitted collectively at predetermined time intervals. The acquisition means 613 of the user terminal 600 acquires the latest security mode information indicating the currently set security mode from the server device 400. At this time, a request for acquiring the latest security mode information is transmitted from the user terminal 600 to the server device 400. In response to this acquisition request, the latest security mode information is read from the storage unit 402 of the server device 400 and transmitted from the server device 400 to the user terminal 600. The display instruction means 612 of the user terminal 600 determines whether the current security mode is the alert mode using the latest security mode information acquired from the server device 400.

[0062] If the security mode indicated by the latest security mode information is the release mode, it is determined that the current security mode is not the alert mode (the determination in step S13 is NO), and the process skips steps S14 to S19 described later and proceeds to step S20. On the other hand, if the security mode indicated by the latest security mode information is the manned security mode or the unmanned security mode, it is determined that the current security mode is the alert mode (the determination in step S13 is YES), and the process proceeds to step S14.

[0063] In step S14, the display instruction means 612 of the user terminal 600 transmits a display instruction for the operation screen 800 of the security mode to the wearable terminal 500. This display instruction includes security mode information indicating the current security mode.

[0064] In step S15, the display control means 513 of the wearable terminal 500 causes the display unit 505 to display the operation screen 800 in the security mode according to the display instruction received from the user terminal 600. Here, once the user of the wearable terminal 500 is authenticated when worn, the authenticated state is maintained while the user wears it. Therefore, the operation screen 800 in the security mode is displayed without going through the user authentication process.

[0065] FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of the screen transition of the wearable terminal 500. The operation screen 800 in the security mode includes security mode information indicating the current security mode and a change button 802 for the security mode. For example, when the current security mode is the unmanned security mode, as shown in FIG. 7, the operation screen 800 includes a message indicating that the current security mode is the unmanned security mode. The change button 802 is used for the operation of changing the current security mode to the release mode. The change button 802 is an example of the "operation image" according to the present invention. When changing to the release mode, the user presses the change button 802 using the operation unit 504.

[0066] In step S16, when the change button 802 is pressed, the change request means 514 of the wearable terminal 500 transmits a change request to the release mode to the controller 200 via the user terminal 600 and the server device 400. At this time, the change request is first transmitted from the wearable terminal 500 to the user terminal 600, transferred from the user terminal 600 to the server device 400, further transferred from the server device 400 to the controller 200, and received by the controller 200.

[0067] In step S17, the setting means 212 of the controller 200 changes the current security mode to the release mode in response to the received change request. For example, when the unmanned security mode is set, the setting means 212 changes the unmanned security mode to the release mode.

[0068] In step S18, the transmission means 213 of the controller 200 transmits a change completion notification notifying that the change to the release mode has been completed to the wearable terminal 500 via the server device 400 and the user terminal 600. At this time, the change completion notification is first transmitted from the controller 200 to the server device 400, transferred from the server device 400 to the user terminal 600, further transferred from the user terminal 600 to the wearable terminal 500, and received by the wearable terminal 500.

[0069] In step S19, the display control means 513 of the wearable terminal 500 causes the display unit 505 to display a change completion screen 810 notifying that the change to the release mode has been completed in response to the received change completion notification. As shown in FIG. 7, the change completion screen 810 includes a message indicating that the change to the release mode has been completed and an "OK" button 811. When the user finishes reading this message, the user presses the "OK" button 811 using the operation unit 504. When the release mode is changed, the intrusion monitoring for the monitoring area 50 is released, so for example, the user can open the front door and enter the monitoring area 50.

[0070] In step S20, the determination means 611 of the user terminal 600 determines that the user has returned to the monitoring area 50 because the user has approached the monitoring area 50 and the release mode has been changed. In step S13 described above, when it is determined that the currently set security mode is not the warning mode (the determination in step S13 is NO), since the release mode has already been set, the determination means 611 may determine that the user has returned to the monitoring area 50 based on the fact that the user has approached the monitoring area 50 and the currently set security mode is not the warning mode.

[0071] In step S21, the acquisition means 613 of the user terminal 600 acquires the setting history of the security mode during the analysis target period from the server device 400. Here, it is assumed that the analysis target period is from one week before the day when the user is determined to have returned to the monitoring area 50 to the current day. However, for the day when the user is determined to have returned to the monitoring area 50, the period from 0:00 to the time when the user is determined to have returned to the monitoring area 50 is included in the analysis target period. The analysis target period is an example of the predetermined period according to the present invention. For example, if the date and time when the user is determined to have returned to the monitoring area 50 is 17:00 on April 15, 20XX, the analysis target period is from 0:00 on April 8, 20XX, which is one week before April 15, to 17:00 on April 15, 20XX.

[0072] Here, prior to this process, the transmission means 213 of the controller 200 transmits security mode information indicating the security mode set by the setting means 212 to the server device 400. The security mode information may be transmitted each time the security mode is changed, or each time the security mode is changed, the security mode information is temporarily stored in the storage unit 202 and transmitted collectively at a predetermined time interval. In the server device 400, the security mode information received from the controller 200 is stored in the storage unit 402. In this way, in the storage unit 402 of the server device 400, security mode information indicating the changed security mode is accumulated according to the change of the security mode. The security mode information includes information indicating the type of the set security mode and the setting date and time of the security mode. Therefore, the setting history of the security mode is constituted by a plurality of pieces of security mode information stored in the storage unit 402 of the server device 400.

[0073] In order to obtain the setting history of the security mode during the analysis target period, a request to obtain the setting history of the security mode for the analysis target period is sent from the user terminal 600 to the server device 400. In response to this acquisition request, the acquisition request for the setting history of the security mode for the analysis target period is read from the storage unit 402 of the server device 400 and transmitted from the server device 400 to the user terminal 600. In the user terminal 600, when this setting history is received from the server device 400, the received setting history is stored in the storage unit 602. Note that the user terminal 600 may use the setting history of the security mode stored in the user terminal 600 each time the security mode information is received from the server device 400 instead of making a request to obtain the setting history of the security mode.

[0074] In step S22, the first analysis means 614 of the user terminal 600 analyzes the usage status of the security mode during the analysis target period by using the setting history stored in the storage unit 602. Specifically, the first analysis means 614 calculates the total usage time of the warning mode during the analysis target period by using the setting history. The setting history of the security mode stored in the storage unit 602 includes the setting date and time of each security mode. From the setting date and time of each security mode, the time zone during which each security mode was set can be obtained. For example, if the manned security mode was set from 0:00 to 9:00 on April 8, 20XX, the usage time of the manned security mode during this time zone is 9 hours. Subsequently, by adding up the usage times of the manned security mode during the analysis target period, the total usage time of the manned security mode during the analysis target period can be obtained. Similarly, by adding up the usage times of the unmanned security mode during the analysis target period, the total usage time of the unmanned security mode during the analysis target period can be obtained. Here, the warning mode includes a manned security mode and an unmanned security mode. Therefore, by adding up the total usage time of the manned security mode and the total of the unmanned security mode during the analysis target period, the total usage time of the warning mode during the analysis target period can be obtained.

[0075] Subsequently, the first analysis means 614 evaluates the utilization status of the security mode by determining the utilization degree of the warning service using the total utilization time of the warning mode during the analysis target period. Here, "level 0" to "level 5" are used for the utilization degree of the warning service. "Level 0" has the lowest evaluation, and the evaluations increase in the order of "level 1" to "level 5".

[0076] There are several examples of methods for determining the utilization degree of the warning service. In one example, the first analysis means 614 determines the utilization degree of the warning service by comparing the total utilization time of the warning mode with a threshold value. For example, when the total utilization time of the warning mode is 0 hours, the utilization degree of the warning service is determined to be "level 0". When the total utilization time of the warning mode exceeds 0 hours and is less than 33 hours, the utilization degree of the warning service is determined to be "level 1". When the total utilization time of the warning mode is 33 hours or more and less than 67 hours, the utilization degree of the warning service is determined to be the third lowest "level 2". When the total utilization time of the warning mode is 67 hours or more, the utilization degree of the warning service is determined to be "level 3".

[0077] In another example, the first analysis means 614 calculates the ratio of the utilization time of the warning mode in the analysis target period using the total utilization time of the warning mode. For example, when the length of the analysis target period is 185 hours and the total utilization time of the warning mode in the analysis target period is 100 hours, the ratio of the utilization time of the warning mode is 100 / 185×100 = approximately 54%. Subsequently, the first analysis means 614 determines the utilization degree of the warning service by comparing the ratio of the utilization time of the warning mode with a threshold value. For example, when the ratio of the utilization time of the warning mode is 0%, the utilization degree of the warning service is determined to be "level 0". When the ratio of the utilization time of the warning mode exceeds 0% and is less than 20%, the utilization degree of the warning service is determined to be "level 1". When the ratio of the utilization time of the warning mode is 20% or more and less than 40%, the utilization degree of the warning service is determined to be "level 2". When the ratio of the utilization time of the warning mode is 40% or more, the utilization degree of the warning service is determined to be "level 3".

[0078] In addition, the first analysis means 614 adjusts the usage rate of the security service according to the type of security mode set during the analysis target period indicated by the security mode setting history. Specifically, when the manned security mode is used at least once during the analysis and evaluation period, the first analysis means 614 increases the usage rate of the security service by one level. Also, when there are 5 or more days in the analysis and evaluation period on which the security mode is used at least once, the first analysis means 614 increases the usage rate of the security service by one level.

[0079] In step S23, the second analysis means 615 analyzes the activity status of the user during the period of going out by using the user's healthcare data. This period of going out is the period from the time when it is determined in step S11 that the user has gone out to the time when it is determined in step S20 that the user has returned to the facility. Here, it is assumed that the period of going out is from 15:00 to 17:00 on April 15, 20XX.

[0080] Prior to this process, the transmission means 512 of the wearable terminal 500 transmits healthcare data to the user terminal 600 at a predetermined time interval. In the user terminal 600, the healthcare data received from the wearable terminal 500 is stored in the storage unit 602. This healthcare data includes the measured value measured by the measurement means 511 of the wearable terminal 500 and the measurement date and time of the measured value.

[0081] The healthcare data includes the calorie consumption during active or resting periods. For example, the second analysis means 615 refers to the measurement date and time of the calorie consumption stored in the storage unit 602 and extracts the calorie consumption measured during the period of going out from 15:00 to 17:00 on April 15, 20XX. Subsequently, the second analysis means 615 obtains the calorie consumption of the user during the period of going out by aggregating the extracted calorie consumption. For example, if the calorie consumption from 15:00 to 16:00 on April 15, 20XX is 100 kcal and the calorie consumption from 16:00 to 17:00 is 102 kcal, then 202 kcal obtained by adding these calorie consumptions is the calorie consumption of the user during the period of going out.

[0082] In step S24, the notification instruction means 616 of the user terminal 600 transmits a notification instruction for instructing the wearable terminal 500 paired in advance to notify the user of the analysis result of the utilization status of the security mode obtained in step S22 and the analysis result of the activity status of the user obtained in step S23. This notification instruction includes these analysis results. The notification instruction transmitted from the user terminal 600 is received by the wearable terminal 500.

[0083] In step S25, the notification means 515 of the wearable terminal 500 causes the display unit 505 to display a notification screen 820 for notifying the analysis result included in the received notification instruction in accordance with the received notification instruction. This notification screen 820 may be displayed in response to the pressing of the "OK" button 811 of the change completion screen 810 shown in FIG. 7.

[0084] In the example shown in FIG. 7, the notification screen 820 includes the calories consumed by the user during the period of going out and the utilization rate of the monitoring service during the analysis target period. For example, when the calories consumed by the user during the period of going out are 202 kcal, as shown in FIG. 7, a message including this calorie consumption, "202 kcal was consumed during this outing", is displayed. Thus, the analysis result of the activity status of the user notified by the notification screen 820 includes the measured values related to the health management of the user measured during the period of going out.

[0085] Also, as the usage level of the monitoring service, any one of "Level 0" to "Level 5" may be displayed as it is, or in order to make the user more enjoyable, "Level 0" and "Level 1" may be converted to "beginner", "Level 2" to "half-capable", "Level 3" to "capable", "Level 4" to "skilled", and "Level 5" to "expert" and then displayed. For example, when the usage level of the monitoring service is "Level 3", as shown in FIG. 7, a message including information corresponding to "Level 3" such as "The usage level of the monitoring service is capable" is displayed. In this way, the analysis result of the utilization status of the security mode notified by the notification screen 820 includes an evaluation result according to the total usage time of the warning mode during the analysis target period.

[0086] According to the above-described embodiment, since the analysis result of the utilization status of the monitoring service is fed back to the user when returning home, which is likely to attract the user's attention, it becomes easier for the user to recognize the analysis result of the utilization status of the monitoring service. As a result, it is possible to give the user a feeling of using the monitoring service and enhance the motivation for the user to make more use of the monitoring service. For example, when the monitoring mode is not being used much, by the user recognizing this analysis result, the user may be motivated to use the monitoring mode more. Also, even when the monitoring mode is being used, by the user recognizing this analysis result, the user may be motivated to continue using the monitoring mode.

[0087] In addition, since the analysis results of the monitoring service usage status are sent to the user by push notification without the user's operation, even users who are not particularly interested in using the monitoring service can easily recognize the analysis results of the monitoring service usage status. Furthermore, by recognizing the analysis results of the monitoring service usage status, the user can once again see that the monitoring service is being used in daily life, and can feel the value of using the monitoring service. In addition, since the analysis results of the monitoring service usage status are notified together with the analysis results of the activity status that the user is most interested in, it is possible to effectively attract the interest of users who are not very interested in using the monitoring service. In addition, by notifying the user of the analysis results of the period of time spent outside the building until the user returns to the building, the user can immediately understand the activity status of the time he or she has just been outside the building.

[0088] Furthermore, when a user approaches the monitored area 50, a security mode operation screen 800 is displayed, and by pressing a change button 802, the security mode is changed to the cancellation mode, so that the security mode can be easily changed to the cancellation mode before entering the monitored area 50.

[0089] 3. Variations The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment. The above-described embodiment may be modified as in the following examples. In this case, two or more of the following modifications may be used in combination.

[0090] Variation 1 In the above-described embodiments, the method for determining the user's return to the house is not limited to the method based on the user's approach to the monitoring area 50 and the change to the release mode. For example, when the position measured by the GPS or GNSS receiver of the sensor unit 606 moves from outside to inside the vicinity area 51, it may be determined that the user has returned to the house. Also, when the radio wave intensity received by the user terminal 600 from a device such as a beacon installed in the monitoring area 50 becomes equal to or greater than the threshold value, it may be determined that the user has returned to the house. Further, when the opening of the front door is detected by a door sensor installed on the front door, it may be determined that the user has returned to the house. Furthermore, at least two of these methods may be combined and used. For example, after the position measured by the GPS or GNSS receiver of the sensor unit 606 moves from outside to inside the vicinity area 51, if the radio wave intensity received by the wearable terminal 500 from a device such as a beacon installed in the monitoring area 50 becomes equal to or greater than the threshold value, or if the opening of the front door is detected by a door sensor installed on the front door, it may be determined that the user has returned to the house.

[0091] Also, in the above-described embodiments, the method for determining the user's going out is not limited to the method based on the relationship between the vicinity area 51 and the user's position. For example, when the radio wave intensity received by the user terminal 600 from a device such as a beacon set in the monitoring area 50 becomes less than the threshold value, it may be determined that the user has gone out.

[0092] Modification Example 2 In the above-described embodiments, when it is determined in step S13 that the current security mode is not the alert mode, the user may be notified that the release mode is set. At this time, if the information of the user who changed to the release mode is recorded, the information of the user who changed to the release mode may also be notified to the user. For example, when the release mode is set in step S13, the display instruction means 612 of the user terminal 600 transmits a display instruction signal indicating that the release mode is set to the wearable terminal 500, and the display control means 513 of the wearable terminal 500 that has received the display instruction signal displays a screen based on the instruction content.

[0093] Modification Example 3

[0094] In the above-described embodiment, the end point of the analysis target period is not limited to the time point when the user's return to the library is determined. The end point of the analysis target period may be 24:00 on the day before the day when the user's return to the library is determined. For example, if the user's return to the library is determined at 17:00 on April 15, 20XX, the analysis target period may be until 24:00 on April 14, 20XX.

[0095] The analysis target period may be determined based on a preset reference time point. Here, it is assumed that the reference time point is set at 6:00 every day. For example, if the user's return to the library is determined at 17:00 on April 15, 20XX, the reference time point that becomes the end point of the analysis target period is 6:00 on April 15, which is the closest reference time point before 17:00 on April 15, 20XX. In this case, the analysis target period is from 6:00 on April 8, which is the same time one week before this reference time point, to 6:00 on April 15.

[0096] In the above-described embodiment, the analysis target period is not limited to one week. The analysis target period may be one month. Here, four weeks are regarded as one month. For example, if the user's return to the library is determined at 17:00 on April 15, 20XX, the analysis target period may be from 0:00 on March 19, which is four weeks before April 15, 20XX, to 17:00 on April 15. Alternatively, the start time of the analysis target period may be 17:00 on March 19 instead of 0:00 on March 18 according to the time when the user's return to the library is determined.

[0097] The analysis target period may be one day. For example, if the user's return to the library is determined at 17:00 on April 15, 20XX, the analysis target period may be from 0:00 on April 14, which is one day before April 15, 20XX, to 17:00 on April 15. Alternatively, the start time of the analysis target period may be 17:00 on April 14 instead of 0:00 on April 14 according to the time when the user's return to the library is determined.

[0098] The analysis period may be the current month. This current month refers to the month to which the current time belongs. For example, when it is determined at 17:00 on April 15, 20XX that the user has returned to the facility, the period from April 1 to April 15, 20XX may be the analysis target period. Also, the analysis results for the entire period from the start of use to the current time are stored in the storage unit 602 of the user terminal 600, and may be displayed on the display unit 605 of the user terminal 600 or the display unit 505 of the wearable terminal 500 according to the user's operation.

[0099] The analysis target period may be the period of going out. In this modification example, the usage status of the security mode during the period of going out from when the user goes out until the user returns next is analyzed, and the analysis result is notified. For example, when the total usage time of the warning mode during the period of going out is 4 hours, a message such as "The warning mode was set for 4 hours during this outing" may be notified to the user. In addition, when both the unmanned security mode and the manned security mode are used, instead of the total usage time of the security mode, a message indicating the total usage time of the unmanned security mode and the total usage time of the manned security mode may be notified. Also, when the security mode is not used during the period of going out, a message such as "The security mode was not set" may be notified to the user.

[0100] Modification Example 4 In the above-described embodiments, the method for adjusting the usage rate of the security service is not limited to the methods described in the embodiments. For example, in the going-out period included in the analysis target period, if the release mode is used for a predetermined time (such as 10 minutes) or more, the usage rate of the security service may be decreased by one level. This is because it may take a certain amount of time for the user to set the security mode after going out is determined, and thus to prevent the usage rate of the security service from being decreased in such a case. This going-out period may be the period from the time when the user goes out to the time when the user returns to the facility. Alternatively, when multiple users enter and leave the security area, it may be the absence period from the time when all users go out to the time when at least one of these users first returns to the facility. The absence period may be determined based on, for example, the going-out determination results and the returning determination results by the user terminals 600 used by each user who enters and leaves the monitoring area 50. Note that the period during which the plurality of sensors 100 do not detect the user for a predetermined time (such as 1 hour) or more may also be set as the absence period. Also, the above-described going-out period is included in the absence period.

[0101] Furthermore, the usage rate of the security service may be adjusted according to the type of the security mode used during the analysis target period and the healthcare data of the user measured during the analysis target period. For example, in the staying-at-home period included in the analysis target period, if the release mode is used and the activity amount indicated by the healthcare data of the user wearing the wearable terminal 500 is equal to or less than the threshold value, the usage rate of the security service may be decreased by one level.

[0102] Furthermore, the usage rate of the security service may be adjusted according to the number of times the warning mode has been changed during the analysis period. For example, when the number of times the mode has been changed from the release mode to the manned security mode or the unmanned security mode during the analysis period is 14 times or more, the usage rate of the security service may be increased by one level, and when it is 28 times or more, the usage rate of the security service may be increased by two levels. However, this count is only counted as one time when the warning mode has been maintained for a predetermined time (such as 10 minutes) or more since it was changed to the warning mode. If the warning mode is further changed before the predetermined time has elapsed since it was changed to the warning mode, it is not counted.

[0103] Furthermore, the usage rate of the security service may be adjusted according to the number of consecutive days of use described above. For example, when the number of consecutive days of use is 10 days, the usage rate of the security service may be increased by one level, and when it is 20 days, the usage rate of the security service may be increased by two levels.

[0104] Modification Example 5 In the above-described embodiments, the number of levels of the usage rate of the monitoring service is not limited to six. The number of levels of the usage rate of the monitoring service may be five or less, or may be seven or more. Also, the expression of the usage rate of the monitoring service is not limited to "Level 0" to "Level 5", "beginner", "half-capable", "capable", "skilled", and "expert". The usage rate of the monitoring service may be expressed as "high", "medium", and "low", or may be expressed by a score, the number of stars, the color of a medal (gold, silver, copper), an icon, or the like.

[0105] Modification Example 6 In the above-described embodiments, the analysis result of the utilization status of the security mode is not limited to the usage rate of the monitoring service. The analysis result of the utilization status of the security mode may include the total usage time of the warning mode during the analysis period. For example, when the total usage time of the warning mode during the analysis period is 100 hours, the notification screen 820 may include a message saying, "The total usage time of the warning mode this week was 100 hours."

[0106] In addition, the analysis result of the usage status of the security mode may include the number of consecutive days up to the current point in time when the alert mode has been used at least once (hereinafter referred to as the "number of consecutive days of using the alert mode"). In this modification example, the first analysis means 614 counts the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode (the number of consecutive days such as the day when the alert mode was set at least once or the day when the alert mode was set for 2 hours or more) using the setting history stored in the storage unit 602, and uses this as the analysis result. For example, when the date and time when the user is determined to have returned to the monitoring area 50 is 17:00 on April 15, 20XX, and the alert mode has been used at least once every day from April 2 to April 14, 20XX, but the alert mode has not been used on April 1, 20XX, the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode is 13 days, which is the number of days from April 2 to April 14, 20XX. When the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode is 13 days, the notification screen 820 may include a message containing the number of consecutive days, such as "It is the 13th day of the consecutive use of the alert mode".

[0107] Furthermore, the analysis result of the usage status of the security mode may include an evaluation result corresponding to the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode. In this modification example, the first analysis means 614 performs an evaluation by determining the level of the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode using the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode. The level of the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode is such that "Level 1" is the lowest, and "Level 2" to "Level 4" increase in order. For example, when the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode is less than 5 days, the level of the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode is determined to be "Level 1". When the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode is 5 days or more, the level of the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode is determined to be "Level 2". When the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode is 10 days or more, the level of the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode is determined to be "Level 3". When the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode is 1 month or more, the level of the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode is determined to be "Level 4". When the level of the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode is "Level 3", the notification screen 820 may include the level of the number of consecutive days of using the alert mode, such as "Level 3", or information corresponding to "Level 3".

[0108] Furthermore, the analysis result of the usage status of the security mode may include the total number of days (hereinafter referred to as "total usage days of the warning mode") in which the warning mode was used at least once during the analysis target period. In this modification example, the first analysis means 614 calculates the total usage days of the warning mode (the total of the days when the warning mode was set at least once, the days when the warning mode was set for 2 hours or more, etc.) using the setting history stored in the storage unit 602, and uses this as the analysis result. For example, if the days when the warning mode was used at least once during the analysis target period from April 7th to April 15th, 20XX are April 7th, 10th, and 15th, 20XX, the total usage days of the warning mode is 3 days, which is the total of these days. When the total usage days of the warning mode is 3 days, the notification screen 820 may include a message including the total usage days, such as "The total usage days of the warning mode is 3 days."

[0109] Furthermore, the analysis result of the usage status of the security mode may include an evaluation result corresponding to the total usage days of the warning mode. In this modification example, the first analysis means 614 performs an evaluation by determining the level of the total usage days using the total usage days of the warning mode. The level of the total usage days increases as the total usage days of the warning mode increases. The notification screen 820 may include the level of the total usage days or information corresponding to the level of the total usage days.

[0110] Modification Example 7 In the above-described embodiment, the analysis result of the activity status notified to the user is not limited to the calories consumed by the user during the going-out period. The analysis result of the activity status notified to the user may be the result of aggregating other measured values measured during the going-out period, such as the moving distance and the number of steps of the user during the going-out period.

[0111] In addition, the analysis result of the user's activity status is not limited to the result of aggregating the measured values during the period of going out. The analysis result of the user's activity status may include the number of consecutive days (hereinafter referred to as "consecutive achievement days") until the current time when the measured values included in the healthcare data have achieved a predetermined target. Here, it is assumed that the healthcare data includes the number of steps and the daily step target is predetermined to be 5,000 steps. For example, when the date and time when the user is determined to have returned to the monitoring area 50 is 17:00 on April 15, 20XX, and the number of steps of the user on each day from April 2 to April 14, 20XX is 5,000 steps or more, while the number of steps of the user on April 1, 20XX is less than 5,000 steps, the number of consecutive achievement days of the step target is 13 days, which is the number of days from April 2 to April 14, 20XX. When the number of consecutive achievement days of the step target is 13 days, the notification screen 820 may include a message saying "The number of consecutive achievement days of the step target is the 13th day".

[0112] In addition, the analysis result of the user's activity status may include the total of the number of days (hereinafter referred to as "total achievement days") when the measured values included in the healthcare data have achieved a predetermined target during the analysis target period. Here, it is assumed that the healthcare data includes the number of steps and the daily step target is predetermined to be 5,000 steps. For example, in the analysis target period from April 7 to April 15, 20XX, if the days when the number of steps per day is 5,000 steps or more are April 7, 10, and 15, 20XX, the total achievement days of the step target is 3 days, which is the total of these days. When the total achievement days of the step target is 3 days, the notification screen 820 may include a message saying "The total achievement days of the step target is 3 days".

[0113] Furthermore, the analysis result of the user's activity status may include an evaluation result corresponding to the healthcare data measured during the period of going out. In this modification example, the second analysis means 615 performs an evaluation by determining the evaluation level of the user's activity status during the period of going out using the healthcare data stored in the storage unit 602. At this time, the higher the number of consecutive achievement days or the total number of achievement days, the higher the evaluation level is determined. The notification screen 820 may include an evaluation level corresponding to the number of consecutive achievement days or the total number of achievement days.

[0114] Furthermore, the analysis result of the user's activity status may include the result of analyzing the change in the user's health state (the user's health trend information) from the healthcare data during the analysis target period. For example, compare the health state analyzed from the healthcare data measured in March with the health state analyzed from the healthcare data measured in April during the analysis target period from March 19, 20XX to April 15, and display the comparison result on the notification screen 820. If the number of steps and the moving distance are greater in April than in March, messages such as "The amount of walking has increased compared to March" or, if the health state has not changed between March and April, "Continuing to be active healthily as last month" may be included in the notification screen 820.

[0115] Also, the analysis result notified to the user may be other than the activity status. For example, the analysis results such as the maximum heart rate measured during the period of going out, the average value of the heart rate during the user's walking or exercise, and the average value of the heart rate at rest may be notified. That is, the analysis of the user's activity status and biological information (vital information) may be performed from the healthcare data, and both or one of the analysis results may be notified. In summary, the second analysis means 615 performs an analysis related to the user's health. This analysis related to health includes the analysis of the user's activity status and the analysis of the user's biological information.

[0116] Modification Example 8 In the above-described embodiment, a reward may be given to the user depending on the usage of the alert service. For example, when the usage of the alert service reaches or exceeds a threshold, a reward is given to the user. Examples of the reward include a special icon badge, a special wallpaper, points that the user can use, and a physical gift. Similarly, in the above-described modified example, a reward may be given to the user depending on the level of the number of consecutive days of usage, the level of the total number of days of usage, or the evaluation level of the user's activity status.

[0117] Variation 9 In the above-described embodiment, the timing of notifying the analysis result is not limited to when the user returns to the building. For example, the notification may be made when a predetermined time, such as 10 minutes, has elapsed since it was determined that the user has returned to the building. In addition, when it is determined that the user has returned to the building, a "return to building" button may be displayed on the display unit 505 of the wearable terminal 500, and when the user presses this "return to building" button, the analysis result may be notified. This "return to building" button may be displayed when it is determined that the user has returned to the building, or may be displayed when a predetermined time, such as 10 minutes, has elapsed since it was determined that the user has returned to the building.

[0118] In the above-described embodiment, even if the user returns to the building, if a certain condition is met, the analysis result may not be notified. For example, if the length of the outing period is less than a certain time, such as 10 minutes, and the unmanned alert mode is used during the outing period, the user is considered to have returned temporarily to retrieve something left behind, and therefore no notification may be sent. However, if the cancellation mode is used during the outing period, even if the outing period is less than a certain time, a notification may be sent to encourage the use of the alert mode, even if the user only goes out for a short time, such as to take out the trash or go shopping at a nearby convenience store.

[0119] Variation 10 In the above-described embodiments, the entity that notifies the analysis result is not limited to the wearable terminal 500. The user terminal 600, the setting unit 300, the controller 200, or at least two of the wearable terminal 500 and these devices may notify the user of the analysis result.

[0120] When the entity that notifies the analysis result is the user terminal 600, for example, the notification screen 820 shown in FIG. 7 is displayed on the display unit 605 of the user terminal 600. Alternatively, a chat screen that displays messages regarding the security mode described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2018-137673 in chronological order may be displayed on the display unit 605, and a message indicating the analysis result may be displayed on this chat screen in chronological order. For example, when the mode is changed to the release mode at 17:00 on April 15, 20XX, following the message "Changed to the release mode" displayed at the position corresponding to this date and time on the chat screen, the message included in the notification screen 820 shown in FIG. 7 may be displayed.

[0121] When the entity that notifies the analysis result is the controller 200, a notification instruction is transmitted from the user terminal 600 to the controller 200 via the server device 400. According to this notification instruction, for example, the notification screen 820 shown in FIG. 7 is displayed on the display unit 205 of the controller 200.

[0122] When the entity that notifies the analysis result is the setting unit 300, a notification instruction is transmitted from the user terminal 600 to the setting unit 300 via the server device 400 and the controller 200. According to this notification instruction, for example, the notification screen 820 shown in FIG. 7 is displayed on the display unit of the setting unit 300.

[0123] Further, the method of notifying the analysis result is not limited to the display of an image. For example, the analysis result may be notified by the output of sound. In this modification, the wearable terminal 500, the user terminal 600, the setting unit 300, or the controller 200, which is the entity that notifies the analysis result, is provided with means for outputting sound such as a speaker, and outputs a voice indicating the analysis result.

[0124] Modification Example 11 In the above-described embodiment, the functions of one device may be distributed among a plurality of devices, or one device may collectively have the functions of a plurality of devices. For example, the server device 400 may further have at least a part of the measuring means 511 of the wearable terminal, the determination means 611, the display instruction means 612, the acquisition means 613, the first analysis means 614, the second analysis means 615, and the notification instruction means 616 of the user terminal 600.

[0125] Also, the user terminal 600 may further have at least a part of the measuring means 511, the display control means 513, the change request means 514, and the notification means 515 of the wearable terminal 500. When the user terminal 600 has all the functions of these wearable terminals 500, for example, when the communication status between the user terminal 600 and the wearable terminal 500 deteriorates, in addition to the processing of the user terminal 600, the user terminal 600 executes the processing of the wearable terminal 500, and the operations of the above-described embodiment may be performed without using the wearable terminal 500.

[0126] Furthermore, the wearable terminal 500 may further have at least a part of the determination means 611, the display instruction means 612, the first analysis means 614, the second analysis means 615, and the notification instruction means 616 of the user terminal 600. When the wearable terminal 500 has all the functions of these user terminals 600, for example, when the communication status between the user terminal 600 and the server device 400 deteriorates, in addition to the processing of the wearable terminal 500, the wearable terminal 500 executes the processing of the user terminal 600, and the operations of the above-described embodiment may be performed without using the user terminal 600.

[0127] Modification Example 12 In the above-described embodiments, the operation of the monitoring system 10 is not limited to the above-described examples. The processing procedures of the monitoring system 10 may be rearranged as long as there is no contradiction. Also, some of the processing procedures of the monitoring system 10 may be omitted. The configuration of the monitoring system 10 is not limited to the above-described examples either. For example, in the monitoring system 10, the wearable terminal 500 and the user terminal 600 may communicate directly with the controller 200 without going through the server device 400.

[0128] Modification Example 13 Another aspect of the present invention may provide a method having steps of processing performed in at least any one of the monitoring system 10, the sensor 100, the controller 200, the setting unit 300, the server device 400, the wearable terminal 500, and the user terminal 600. Further, still another aspect of the present invention may provide a program executed in the sensor 100, the controller 200, the setting unit 300, the server device 400, the wearable terminal 500, or the user terminal 600. This program may be provided by being stored in a computer-readable recording medium or may be provided by being downloaded via the Internet or the like.
