When the environmental data received by the communication unit 607 includes an acoustic signal, the control unit 601 causes the output unit 606 to reproduce the acoustic signal. The control unit 601 transmits the voice signal collected by the sound collection unit 605 to the server 3 via the communication unit 607. The control unit 601 generates a remote operation instruction based on the operation result detected by the operation unit 603, and transmits the generated remote operation instruction to the server 3 via the communication unit 607. Note that the transmitted voice signal may be associated with the remote operation instruction. For example, when the operator makes a call or the like to a person around the patient from the second speaker 2074, the remote operation instruction also includes an instruction to output a voice signal from the second speaker 2074.

[0058] The storage unit 602 stores programs, threshold values, etc. used by the control unit 601 for control. The storage unit 602 stores environmental data and medical condition information under the control of the control unit 601.

[0059] The operation unit 603 detects the operation result of the operator. The operation unit 603 is, for example, a touch panel sensor provided on the image display unit 604. Alternatively, the operation unit 603 may be a keyboard or a mouse. Or, the operation unit 603 may be a joystick. Or, the operation unit 603 may be a glove or the like including a tactile sensor that detects the movement of the operator's hand.

[0060] The image display unit 604 displays the image output by the control unit 601.

[0061] The sound collection unit 605 includes at least one microphone and collects the voice of the operator. Note that the sound collection unit 605 may be a microphone array composed of a plurality of microphones.

[0062] The output unit 606 is, for example, a speaker. The output unit 606 outputs the acoustic signal output by the control unit 601.

[0063] The communication unit 607 receives information (such as medical condition information and environmental data) from the server 3 via the network NW and outputs the received information to the control unit 601. The communication unit 607 transmits the operation request output by the control unit 601 to the server 3 via the network NW.

[0064] The GPS receiver 608 generates position information using the information received from the GPS satellites.

[0065] [Determination of the transportation method and method for determining the destination hospital] Next, the method for determining the patient's transportation method and the method for determining the destination hospital will be described with reference to FIGS. 8 and 9. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing transportation precedents. FIG. 9 is a flowchart of the procedure for determining the patient's transportation method according to the present embodiment.

[0066] (Step S101) The server 3 acquires medical condition information and environmental data from the rescue and emergency robot 2 via the network NW. Subsequently, the server 3 transmits the acquired medical condition information and environmental data to each terminal 6 via the network NW.

[0067] (Step S102) For example, the emergency medical technician 121 operates the terminal 6-4 based on the medical condition information and environmental data received by the terminal 6-4 to remotely operate the rescue robot 2, issue instructions such as instructions to the informant, etc., and cause the rescue robot 2 to treat the patient Huk. The server 3 controls the rescue robot 2 based on the remote operation instruction received from the terminal 6-4 to cause treatment of the patient Huk, etc. and issue instructions to the informant, etc.

[0068] (Step S103) For example, the emergency medical technician 121 determines whether or not the treatment of the patient Huk has been completed based on the acquired medical condition information and environmental data. The emergency medical technician 121 operates the terminal 6-4 to input the determination result as to whether or not the treatment of the patient Huk has been completed. The terminal 6-4 transmits the determination result to the server 3 via the network NW. The conveyance means determination unit 307 determines whether or not the treatment of the patient Huk has been completed based on the determination result received from the terminal 6-4. Note that the conveyance means determination unit 307 may determine whether or not the treatment of the patient Huk has been completed based on the medical condition information and environmental data. When the conveyance means determination unit 307 determines that the treatment of the patient Huk has been completed (Step S103; YES), the process proceeds to the process of Step S104. When the conveyance means determination unit 307 determines that the treatment of the patient Huk has not been completed (Step S103; NO), the process proceeds to the process of Step S105.

[0069] (Step S104) Based on the medical condition information and environmental data obtained from the rescue robot 2, the transportation means determination unit 307 determines to transport the patient Huk by other transportation means. Subsequently, the transportation means determination unit 307 transmits an instruction to cancel the dispatch of the ambulance to the terminal 6-2 of the emergency team 111 via the network NW. Subsequently, the transportation means determination unit 307 arranges for other transportation means (for example, taxi g121). After the processing, the transportation means determination unit 307 ends the processing. Note that the determination to transport the patient by other transportation means may be made by the coordinator 131, the emergency medical technician 121, or the like. In this case, the transportation means determination unit 307 may issue an instruction to cancel the dispatch of the ambulance and arrange for other transportation means based on at least one of the determination results of the coordinator 131, the emergency medical technician 121, or the like, the medical condition information, and the environmental data. Also, even when the treatment is completed, the transportation means determination unit 307 may determine a hospital (for example, the patient's regular hospital) in the same manner as in step S106 based on the medical condition information and the environmental data, and transmit the medical condition information and personal information to the determined hospital. For this reason, the destination where the patient Huk is transported by other transportation means g121 may be the patient's home g122 or the like, or the hospital g102.

[0070] (Step S105) The transportation means determination unit 307 determines whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed since the start of the process, for example, by remote operation. The predetermined time is within the time expected for the ambulance g101 to arrive after the emergency medical report is made. When the transportation means determination unit 307 determines that the predetermined time has elapsed (Step S105; YES), it proceeds to the processing of Step S106. When the server 3 determines that the predetermined time has not elapsed (Step S105; NO), it returns to the processing of Step S101.

[0071] (Step S106) The coordinator 131 lists candidates for the hospital to which the patient should be transported as a determination result indicating that it is better to transport the patient to the hospital, based on the medical condition information and environmental data acquired by the terminal 6-5. The terminal 6-5 transmits the hospital candidate information for the transport destination to the server 3 via the network NW based on the operation result of the coordinator 131. The transport means determination unit 307 arranges the hospital g102 based on at least one of the medical condition information, environmental data, and determination result, and transmits the patient's personal information and medical condition information to the arranged hospital g102. Thus, according to the present embodiment, the hospital to which the patient is to be transported can acquire the patient's medical condition information before the patient is transported, and can make reception preparations. In the embodiment, the "plurality of transport means" is, for example, a transport means by ambulance, a transport means by taxi, a transport means by the vehicle of an attendant when there is an attendant, etc.

[0072] (Step S107) The server 3 determines whether or not the ambulance g101 has arrived based on, for example, the result of the emergency team 111 operating the terminal 6-2. When the server 3 determines that the ambulance g101 has arrived (Step S107; YES), the server 3 ends the determination process for the patient's transport method. When the server 3 determines that the ambulance g101 has not arrived (Step S107; NO), the server 3 returns to the process of Step S101.

[0073] Note that the lifesaving and emergency robot 2 or the server 3 may generate traffic control information for the transport route (signals, instructions to surrounding automobiles (automatic driving is particularly effective)) in addition to contacting the emergency team 111 to determine whether or not to dispatch. The lifesaving and emergency robot 2 or the server 3 may transmit the generated traffic control information to, for example, a traffic control center or a lifesaving and emergency center. Thus, according to the present embodiment, traffic control of the transport route can be performed according to the reaction means.

[0074] [Example of Processing of Transport Means Determination System 1] Next, a processing example of the conveyance means determination system 1 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 3, 5 to 7, and 10. FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a processing example of the conveyance means determination system according to the present embodiment. In FIG. 10, "life-saving and emergency rescue robot" is also described as "robot". The example shown in FIG. 10 is an example in which the life-saving and emergency rescue robot 2 does not touch a person such as a patient and gives instructions to people around it by, for example, the light of the pointer 2113.

[0075] (Step S11) When the informant discovers a patient, the informant makes a call using the mobile phone 5-2 to request life-saving and emergency rescue (life-saving and emergency rescue report). This life-saving and emergency rescue report is transmitted to, for example, the life-saving and emergency rescue robot 2, the server 3, the terminal 6-2 of the emergency team 111, the terminal 6-3 of the life-saving and emergency rescue medical staff 121, the terminal 6-4 of the auxiliary life-saving and emergency rescue medical staff, and the terminal 6-5 of the coordinator 131. The life-saving and emergency rescue report includes at least position information such as the address of the scene. The life-saving and emergency rescue report may include information such as the state of the patient, the state of the environment, and the number of patients. The state of the environment is, for example, information such as the traffic conditions at the scene, information indicating that the scene is a shopping center, and information such as the temperature and humidity at the scene. The position information such as the address of the scene may be obtained by, for example, the server 3 based on the position information of the informant's mobile phone 5-2.

[0076] (Step S12) The ambulance (not shown) starts a rush to the scene in response to the life-saving and emergency rescue report. After the processing, the conveyance means determination system 1 performs at least one of the processes in Step S13a or Step S13b.

[0077] (Step S13a) In response to the life-saving and emergency rescue report, the server 3 activates the life-saving and emergency rescue robot 2 installed closest to the position based on the position information included in the life-saving and emergency rescue report. Alternatively, in response to the life-saving and emergency rescue report, the server 3 transmits the position information to the life-saving and emergency rescue robot 2 installed closest to the position based on the position information included in the life-saving and emergency rescue report to the mobile phone 5-2. The server 3 also transmits information such as the fact that a life-saving and emergency rescue request has been made and the identification information of the life-saving and emergency rescue robot 2 used to each terminal 6.

[0078] (Step S13b) Based on the location information included in the emergency call, the nearest first-aid robot 2 installed at that location is activated. Or, based on the location information of the first-aid robot 2 transmitted to the mobile phone 5-2, the informant moves to the location where the first-aid robot 2 is installed and activates the first-aid robot 2. In addition, in response to the emergency call, the emergency medical technician 121 may activate the first-aid robot 2. Also, the server 3 transmits information such as the fact that an emergency call has been made and the identification information of the first-aid robot 2 used to each terminal 6.

[0079] (Step S14) The first-aid robot 2 moves to the reported location based on the location information included in the emergency call. Or, the informant moves the first-aid robot 2 to the location where the patient is. In addition, in response to the emergency call, the emergency medical technician 121 may remotely operate to move the first-aid robot 2 to the reported location.

[0080] (Step S15) The emergency medical technician 121 remotely operates the emergency rescue robot 2 to, for example, display on the first display device 2071, announce from the first speaker 2073, or give instructions to the informant or the people at the scene using the pointer 2113. The emergency medical technician 121 remotely operates the emergency rescue robot 2 to, for example, display on the first display device 2071, announce from the first speaker 2073, or give instructions to the informant or the people at the scene using the pointer 2113 to explain the usage method of the emergency rescue tools and obtain medical information such as the patient's vital check. The emergency rescue robot 2 transmits the acquired medical information such as the vital check to the server 3 via the network NW. Also, the emergency medical technician 121 remotely operates the emergency rescue robot 2 to, for example, display on the first display device 2071, announce from the first speaker 2073, or give instructions to the informant or the people at the scene using the pointer 2113 to have the informant or the people at the scene perform the treatment of the patient. Further, the emergency medical technician 121 remotely operates the emergency rescue robot 2 to acquire environmental data (image data, acoustic signal), which is information on the surrounding situation. The emergency rescue robot 2 transmits the acquired environmental data to the server 3 via the network NW. Note that the remote operator gives an operation instruction using a terminal, and the server 3 that has acquired this operation instruction controls the notification unit 207, the hand 2112, and the pointer of the emergency rescue robot 2 to give instructions and notifications. Also, the server 3 (the medical condition data control unit 301, the robot data control unit 302, the environmental data control unit 303) performs the operation control of the arm 211 of the emergency rescue robot 2, the drive control of the notification drive unit 208, and the drive control of the imaging device drive unit 210 based on the acquired remote instruction.

[0081] (Step S16) The informant (or a person around the patient) takes out the emergency rescue tools, performs processing, and uses the emergency rescue tools to obtain medical information such as a vital check according to the instructions of the emergency rescue robot 2.

[0082] (Step S17) On the terminal 6-2 of the emergency team 111 in the ambulance, after the lifesaving emergency robot 2 arrives at the patient's side, medical information such as vital checks from the lifesaving emergency robot 2 is transmitted via the network NW and the server 3. Note that the medical information such as vital checks from the lifesaving emergency robot 2 is also transmitted to the terminal 6-3 of the lifesaving emergency medical technician 121 who remotely operates the lifesaving emergency robot 2.

[0083] (Step S18) On the terminal 6-5 of the coordinator 131, medical information such as vital checks from the lifesaving emergency robot 2 is transmitted from the server 3. Also, on the terminal 6-5 of the coordinator 131, the patient's personal information (medical history, affiliated hospital, etc.) is transmitted from the server 3. Note that the patient's mobile number is obtained, for example, by asking the patient himself / herself if the patient is conscious, by confirming with the patient's attendant if the patient cannot be asked, or by making an emergency medical call from the patient's mobile phone 5-1 if the patient has a mobile phone. The coordinator 131 lists candidates for the destination hospital based on the medical information such as vital checks and the personal information obtained by the terminal 6-5. Note that the adjustment and determination of the destination hospital may be performed by the coordinator 131 or by the server 3.

[0084] (Step S19) After the destination hospital is determined, on the terminal 6-1 of the hospital 100, medical information such as vital checks from the lifesaving emergency robot 2 is transmitted from the server 3. Subsequently, the server 3 gives the operator of the terminal 6-1 (for example, the doctor 101) the right to use the imaging device 209 of the lifesaving emergency robot 2 when it is not being used by remote operation. Thereby, the doctor 101 can, separately from the remote operation of the lifesaving emergency medical technician 121, operate, for example, the second imaging device 2092 to check the patient's condition, etc.

[0085] (Step S20) The conveyance means determination unit 307 of the server 3 determines whether the treatment has ended based on the acquired vital check and other medical information and the image captured by the imaging device 209. Note that the determination of whether the treatment has ended may be made by the emergency medical technician 121. When it is determined that the treatment has ended, for example, the conveyance means determination unit 307 of the server 3 transmits a dispatch stop request to the terminal 6-2 of the emergency team 111 via the network NW, and arranges another conveyance means (e.g., a taxi). When it is determined that the treatment has not ended, for example, the robot data control unit 302 of the server 3 controls to continue to notify and instruct the terminal 6 to continue the treatment and other operations until the ambulance arrives in response to the remote operation, while continuing to transmit the vital check and other medical information and environmental data to the terminal 6.

[0086] (Step S21) The terminal 6-1 in the ambulance receives the dispatch stop request. The emergency team 111 cancels the dispatch based on the received result.

[0087] (Step S22) The emergency team 111 riding in the ambulance arrives at the scene where the patient is located.

[0088] (Step S23) The informant etc. hands over the patient to the emergency team. After the patient is handed over, the emergency rescue robot 2 may return to, for example, the place where the informant was located, or may return to the place where it was located by self-driving by remote operation, or may be recovered by a recovery vehicle later.

[0089] Note that in the above example, the example where the informant goes to pick up the emergency rescue robot 2 has been described, but it is not limited to this. For example, based on the emergency rescue report, the server 3 may notify the people around the selected emergency rescue robot 2 of the support for the movement of the emergency rescue robot 2 to the location of the patient, and let the people around the emergency rescue robot 2 move there.

[0090] In this case, the process of step S14 may be performed as follows. The server 3 may generate route information of the movement route from the selected lifesaving and emergency robot 2 to the informant (the mobile phone 5-2 used by the informant) in response to a lifesaving and emergency report. Subsequently, the server 3 may generate navigation information by images and voice signals from the lifesaving and emergency robot 2 to the informant based on the generated route information. Subsequently, the server 3 may transmit the generated route information and navigation information to the lifesaving and emergency robot 2 via the network NW. Subsequently, the lifesaving and emergency robot 2 may notify the surrounding people of the received route information and navigation information to encourage the movement to the informant. Then, the lifesaving and emergency robot 2 may navigate from the lifesaving and emergency robot 2 to the informant based on the route information and navigation information.

[0091] Note that the processing procedure shown in FIG. 10 is an example and is not limited thereto. Some processes may be performed simultaneously, and the procedures may be interchanged.

[0092] Also, in the above-described example, when the lifesaving and emergency robot 2 performs instructions or the like by the arm 211 through remote operation, in response to the control command information of the server 3, the lifesaving and emergency robot 2 performs work after taking out the arm 211 from the arm storage unit 214, and stores the arm 211 in the arm storage unit 214 after the work is completed.

[0093] Note that when the lifesaving and emergency robot 2 performs acquisition or assistance of medical information such as patient treatment and vital check in response to remote operation, the processes of steps S15 and S16 may be performed as follows. (Step S15) The emergency medical technician 121 remotely operates the emergency rescue robot 2 to have the patient receive treatment or use rescue tools to obtain medical information such as vital signs checks. The robot data control unit 302 of the server 3 generates control command information for the arm 211 to have the patient receive treatment or use rescue tools to obtain medical information such as vital signs checks in response to the remote instruction. The robot data control unit 302 transmits the generated control command information to the emergency rescue robot 2. Also, the robot data control unit 302 may give cooperation instructions such as assistance when having the patient receive treatment or use rescue tools to obtain medical information such as vital signs checks by controlling the arm 211, the pointer 2113, etc.

[0094] (Step S16) When there is an instruction for cooperation request from the emergency rescue robot 2, the informant (or a person around the patient) may, in accordance with the instruction of the emergency rescue robot 2, take out or assist in taking out the emergency rescue tools, and assist in obtaining medical information such as vital signs checks by using the tools or performing the treatment.

[0095] When remotely operating the emergency rescue robot 2, the operation unit 603 of the terminal 6-1 used by the remotely operating emergency medical technician 121 may be a tactile data glove worn on the operator's hand. The tactile data glove detects the orientation, the movement of each finger, the movement of the hand, and the movement of the arm by sensors provided in the tactile data glove, and transmits the detected operator sensor values to the server 3. The sensors are, for example, acceleration sensors, gyroscope sensors, magnetic sensors, etc. The tactile data glove may be provided with feedback means. The feedback means feeds back to the operator feedback information (pressure, temperature, etc.) from the end effector of the emergency rescue robot 2 according to the control of the control unit 601. Also, the image display unit 604 of the terminal 6-1 may be an HMD (head-mounted display). An image taken by the emergency rescue robot 2 is displayed on the HMD. The HMD may be provided with a gaze detector for detecting the operator's gaze information. In this case, the detected gaze information is transmitted to the server 3.

[0096] Furthermore, the control unit 201 of the rescue robot 2 may estimate the intention of the operation that the operator is about to perform by inputting the above-mentioned operator sensor value and line-of-sight information into a learned model. As a result, since the control unit 201 can realize the operation without the operator performing exact alignment, the rescue robot 2 can be made to perform the operation with high accuracy. The learned model is learned, for example, by previously inputting the operator sensor value and line-of-sight information and using the operation that the operator is about to perform as teacher data.

[0097] In the above-described embodiment, an example in which one rescue robot 2 performs instructions, treatments, etc. has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this. Depending on the situation at the scene and the condition of the patient, the rescue robot 2 may send a request for assistance to other surrounding rescue robots 2 to the server 3 via the network NW. Note that the other rescue robots 2 used for assistance are remotely operated by an operator different from the operator of the rescue robot 2 performing the treatment.

[0098] As described above, the conveyance means determination system 1 of the present embodiment includes a rescue robot 2 (rescue device) capable of acquiring medical condition information and environmental information, a server 3 that acquires the environmental information and medical condition information obtained from the rescue device, a terminal 6 that can acquire medical condition information and environmental information, can remotely operate the rescue device, and transmits a determination result determined based on the acquired medical condition information and environmental information to the server 3, and a conveyance means determination unit 307 that determines at least one conveyance means from among a plurality of conveyance means using at least one of the medical condition information, environmental information, and determination result.

[0099] Thereby, according to the present embodiment, a conveyance means can be selected from among options in an emergency. Further, according to the present embodiment, since the conveyance method is extended to means other than an ambulance, the ambulance can reach those who truly need it. Further, according to the present embodiment, depending on the conveyance means, a request for traffic control and traffic control can be performed.

[0100] Note that a program for realizing part or all of the functions of the lifesaving and emergency rescue robot 2 and the server 3 in the present invention may be recorded on a computer-readable recording medium, and the program recorded on this recording medium may be read into a computer system and executed to perform all or part of the processing performed by the lifesaving and emergency rescue robot 2 and the server 3. Here, the "computer system" shall include hardware such as an OS and peripheral devices. Further, the "computer system" shall also include a system constructed on a local network, a system constructed on the cloud, and the like. Further, the "computer-readable recording medium" refers to a portable medium such as a flexible disk, a magneto-optical disk, a ROM, a CD-ROM, or a storage device such as a hard disk incorporated in a computer system. Furthermore, the "computer-readable recording medium" shall also include a volatile memory (RAM) inside a computer system that becomes a server or a client when a program is transmitted via a network such as the Internet or a communication line such as a telephone line, and that holds the program for a certain period of time.

[0101] Also, the above program may be transmitted from a computer system storing the program in a storage device or the like to another computer system via a transmission medium or by a transmission wave in the transmission medium. Here, the "transmission medium" for transmitting the program refers to a medium having a function of transmitting information, such as a network (communication network) such as the Internet or a communication line (communication line) such as a telephone line. Also, the above program may be for realizing part of the above-described functions. Furthermore, it may be a so-called difference file (difference program) that can realize the above-described functions in combination with a program already recorded in a computer system.

[0102] As described above, the embodiments for carrying out the present invention have been described using the embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to such embodiments, and various modifications and substitutions can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.
