Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] As a means of finger disinfection, a disinfectant solution such as ethanol may be used. On the other hand, the conventional entrance / exit room management system described in Patent Document 1 obliges all users who attempt to enter to perform finger disinfection such as handwashing. As a result, there has been a problem that users who cannot use the disinfectant solution due to physical reasons such as chapped hands or allergies are forced to perform finger disinfection. In addition, when a user repeatedly enters and exits the room several times in a short period, finger disinfection is performed each time of entry. As a result, there has been a problem that the possibility of developing chapped hands or the like due to the influence of the disinfectant solution is increased.

[0005] The present disclosure addresses the above problems and aims to provide an entrance / exit management device, an entrance / exit management system, an entrance / exit management method, and an entrance / exit management program that impose a smaller physical burden on users for whom finger disinfection with a disinfectant solution is inappropriate.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0007] The entrance / exit management device according to the present disclosure includes an authentication unit that determines whether authentication is successful or failed for identification information that identifies a user read by a reading device, a finger disinfection determination unit that determines whether a user has disinfected their fingers with a first disinfection means, and after the authentication unit determines that the authentication for the identification information is successful, if the finger disinfection determination unit determines that the user has disinfected their fingers within a first time period, the control unit causes the entrance restriction device to permit entry into the management area, and if the finger disinfection determination unit determines that the user has not disinfected their fingers within the first time period, the control unit causes the entrance restriction device to restrict entry into the management area. The control unit, when the authentication unit determines that the authentication for the identification information is successful and the exemption conditions regarding the user's finger disinfection are satisfied, causes the finger disinfection determination unit to determine whether the user has disinfected their fingers with a second disinfection means different from the first disinfection means.

[0010] Further, the entrance / exit management system according to the present disclosure includes a reading device that reads identification information for identifying a user, an authentication unit that determines whether authentication is successful or failed for the identification information, a finger disinfection determination unit that determines whether a user has disinfected their fingers with a first disinfection means, and after the authentication unit determines that the authentication for the identification information is successful, if the finger disinfection determination unit determines that the user has disinfected their fingers within a first time period, the control unit causes the entrance restriction device to permit entry into the management area, and if the finger disinfection determination unit determines that the user has not disinfected their fingers within the first time period, the control unit causes the entrance restriction device to restrict entry into the management area. The entrance / exit management system includes an entrance / exit management device having such a control unit. The control unit, when the authentication unit determines that the authentication for the identification information is successful and the exemption conditions regarding the user's finger disinfection are satisfied, causes the finger disinfection determination unit to determine whether the user has disinfected their fingers with a second disinfection means different from the first disinfection means.

Effects of the Invention

[0018] The entry / exit management device, entry / exit management system, entry / exit management method, and entry / exit management program according to the present disclosure include a finger disinfection determination unit that determines whether a user has disinfected their fingers with a first disinfection means, and after the authentication unit determines that authentication is successful for the identification information, if the finger disinfection determination unit determines that the user has disinfected their fingers within a first time period, the entry restriction device is made to permit entry into the management area, and if the finger disinfection determination unit determines that the user has not disinfected their fingers within the first time period, the entry restriction device is made to restrict entry into the management area. The control unit causes the entry restriction device to permit entry into the management area when the authentication unit determines that authentication is successful for the identification information and the exemption conditions regarding the user's finger disinfection are satisfied. Therefore, a user who satisfies the exemption conditions regarding finger disinfection is permitted to enter the management area without disinfecting their fingers. That is, it is possible to obtain an entry / exit management device, entry / exit management system, entry / exit management method, and entry / exit management program that impose a smaller physical burden on users for whom finger disinfection with a disinfectant solution is inappropriate.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0020] Embodiment 1 FIG. 1 is an external view of the entry / exit management system according to the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the entry / exit management system 100 includes a reading device 1, an entry / exit management device 2, an electronic lock 3 which is an entry restriction device, and a disinfection device 4 which is a first disinfection means. The reading device 1 reads identification information for identifying a user. The door 31 is a door provided at an entrance for entering or exiting the management area. The electronic lock 3 is a lock for locking the door 31. Note that the entry restriction device is not limited to the electronic lock 3. It may be an automatic door that allows only users with the right to enter the management area to pass through.

[0021] The reading device 1 is provided, for example, outside the management area near the door 31. The identification information for identifying a user is, for example, a personal identification number registered on a security card held by the user. In this case, the reading device 1 is a card reader. The identification information for identifying a user is, for example, biometric information such as a user's fingerprint. In this case, the reading device 1 is a biometric information reading device such as a fingerprint reader.

[0022] The disinfection device 4 includes a human sensor 42 which is a disinfection detection unit and a nozzle 41 which is a spraying unit. The human sensor 42 detects an operation of a user holding a finger near the nozzle 41. The nozzle 41 is a nozzle for spraying a disinfectant on the user's finger. When the human sensor 42 detects an operation of a user holding a finger near the nozzle 41, the disinfection device 4 sprays a disinfectant from the nozzle 41 onto the user's finger.

[0023] The entry / exit management device 2 includes a reading device 1 and an instruction notification unit 25. The entry / exit management device 2 controls the electronic lock 3 based on the result of authenticating the user's identification information and whether or not the disinfection device 4 has disinfected the user's finger. Note that the reading device 1 may be built into the entry / exit management device 2. The reading device 1 may be provided separately from the entry / exit management device 2 described later.

[0024] FIG. 2 is a functional configuration diagram of the entry / exit management system according to the present embodiment.

[0025] The entry / exit management device 2 includes an authentication unit 21, a storage unit 22, a finger disinfection determination unit 23, a control unit 24, and an instruction notification unit 25. The authentication unit 21 determines whether authentication is successful or failed based on the authentication information of the user pre-stored in the storage unit 22 for the identification information that identifies the user read by the reading device 1.

[0026] The storage unit 22 stores the identification information corresponding to each user for the authentication unit 21 to authenticate. In addition, the storage unit 22 stores the identification information of the user in association with the exemption conditions regarding finger disinfection corresponding to the user. The exemption conditions refer to the conditions under which it is considered inappropriate for the user to be authenticated by the entry / exit management device 2 to perform finger disinfection by the disinfection device 4. FIG. 3 is a data configuration diagram stored in the storage unit of the entry / exit management system according to the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 3, the storage unit 22 stores identification information A, B, and C. Hereinafter, the users identified by the identification information A, B, and C are simply referred to as user A, user B, and user C, respectively. As shown in FIG. 3, the storage unit 22 stores the exemption conditions regarding finger disinfection corresponding to the identification information A, B, and C, respectively. According to FIG. 3, the exemption conditions are, for example, two types: physical exemption conditions and time exemption conditions.

[0027] The physical exemption condition is an attribute indicating that finger disinfection by the disinfection device 4 is exempted due to physical reasons such as rough hands or allergies. In the example of FIG. 3, user A satisfies the physical exemption condition. User B and user C do not satisfy the physical exemption condition.

[0028] The time exemption condition is an attribute indicating whether the time from the time when the user last performed finger disinfection by the disinfection device 4 to the current time is within the second time. Here, the current time may be anything as long as it indicates the current time. Specifically, the current time may be, for example, the time when the authentication unit 21 authenticates the identification information of the user. Also, the current time may be, for example, the time when the reading device 1 reads the identification information of the user. In the example of FIG. 3, user B satisfies the time exemption condition. User A and user C do not satisfy the time exemption condition. Note that the second time can be set as appropriate. The second time is, for example, 10 minutes.

[0029] Note that the storage unit 22 may store the time itself when finger disinfection was performed by the disinfection device 4 last time as a time exemption condition. In this case, the control unit 24 may calculate and determine whether the time from the time stored in the storage unit 22 to the current time is within the second time.

[0030] The finger disinfection determination unit 23 determines whether the user has disinfected their fingers with the disinfection device 4 which is the first disinfection means. The finger disinfection determination unit 23 determines whether the user has disinfected their fingers with the disinfection device 4 which is the first disinfection means, for example, by receiving a disinfection completion signal transmitted by the disinfection device 4.

[0031] The control unit 24 causes the electronic lock 3 which is an access restriction device to perform an operation of permitting or restricting access to the management area. Specifically, the control unit 24 causes the electronic lock 3 to perform an operation of unlocking or locking. After the authentication unit 21 determines that authentication of the user's identification information is successful, if the finger disinfection determination unit 23 determines that the user has disinfected their fingers within the first time, the control unit 24 causes the electronic lock 3 which is an access restriction device to perform an operation of permitting access to the management area. Specifically, the control unit 24 unlocks the electronic lock 3.

[0032] On the other hand, after the authentication unit 21 determines that authentication of the user's identification information is successful, if the finger disinfection determination unit 23 determines that the user has not disinfected their fingers within the first time, the control unit 24 causes the electronic lock 3 which is an access restriction device to perform an operation of restricting access to the management area. Specifically, the control unit 24 maintains the locking of the electronic lock 3.

[0033] In addition, when the authentication unit 21 determines that authentication of the user's identification information is successful and the exemption conditions regarding the finger disinfection of the user are satisfied, the control unit 24 causes the electronic lock 3, which is an access restriction device, to perform an operation of permitting entry into the management area. When it is necessary for the user to disinfect their fingers when entering the management area, the instruction notification unit 25 notifies the user to disinfect their fingers with the disinfection device 4. The instruction notification unit 25 is, for example, a liquid crystal screen and notifies the user by character information or graphic information. The instruction notification unit 25 is, for example, a speaker and notifies the user by voice information.

[0034] For example, the exemption condition that the user is exempted from finger disinfection by the disinfection device 4 due to physical reasons (physical exemption condition) will be explained. As shown in FIG. 3, the user A satisfies the physical exemption condition. Therefore, when the authentication unit 21 determines that authentication of the identification information of the user A is successful, the control unit 24 unlocks the electronic lock 3. As a result, the user A can enter the management area without disinfecting their fingers with the disinfection device 4.

[0035] On the other hand, the user C does not satisfy the physical exemption condition. In this case, the electronic lock 3 will not unlock just because the authentication unit 21 determines that authentication of the identification information of the user C is successful. In this case, the control unit 24 causes the instruction notification unit 25 to notify the user C to disinfect their fingers with the disinfection device 4. When the finger disinfection determination unit 23 determines that the user C has disinfected their fingers within the first hour after the authentication unit 21 determines that authentication of the identification information of the user C is successful, the control unit 24 unlocks the electronic lock 3. Also, when the finger disinfection determination unit 23 determines that the user has not disinfected their fingers within the first hour after the authentication unit 21 determines that authentication of the user's identification information is successful, the control unit 24 maintains the locking of the electronic lock 3. Note that the first hour is the time sufficient for the user to disinfect with the disinfection device 4 after being determined to be successfully authenticated by the authentication unit 21. The first hour is a shorter time than the second hour. The first hour is, for example, 1 minute.

[0036] For example, the exemption condition will be described for the case where the time from the time when finger disinfection was performed by the previous disinfection device 4 to the current time is within the second hour (time exemption condition). As shown in FIG. 3, user B satisfies the time exemption condition. Therefore, when the authentication unit 21 determines that authentication is successful for the identification information of user B, the control unit 24 unlocks the electronic lock 3. As a result, user B can enter the management area without disinfecting their fingers with the disinfection device 4.

[0037] On the other hand, user C does not satisfy the time exemption condition. In this case, the electronic lock 3 will not unlock just because the authentication unit 21 determines that authentication is successful for the identification information of user C. In this case, the control unit 24 causes the instruction notification unit 25 to notify user C to disinfect their fingers with the disinfection device 4. If the finger disinfection determination unit 23 determines that user C has disinfected their fingers within the first hour after the authentication unit 21 determines that authentication is successful for the identification information of user C, the control unit 24 unlocks the electronic lock 3. Also, if the finger disinfection determination unit 23 determines that the user has not disinfected their fingers within the first hour after the authentication unit 21 determines that authentication is successful for the user's identification information, the control unit 24 maintains the locking of the electronic lock 3.

[0038] The disinfection device 4 includes a human sensor 42 which is a disinfection detection unit, a nozzle 41 which is a spraying unit, and a disinfection control unit 43. As described above, the human sensor 42 detects the operation of disinfecting the user's fingers near the nozzle 41. The nozzle 41 is a nozzle for spraying a disinfectant on the user's fingers as described above. The disinfection control unit 43 causes the nozzle 41 to spray the disinfectant on the fingers when the human sensor 42 detects the operation of disinfecting the user's fingers. Also, after the disinfectant is sprayed from the nozzle 41, a disinfection completion signal indicating that the disinfectant has been sprayed is transmitted.

[0039] Next, the operation of the access control system 100 will be described. FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the operation of the access control system according to the present embodiment. Among the flowcharts shown in FIG. 4, S100 to S119 indicate the operation of the access control device 2, and the process starts from S100. S200 to S203 indicate the operation of the disinfection device 4, and the process starts from S200.

[0040] First, the operation of the access control device 2 will be described. The access control device 2 starts the process from S100. The authentication unit 21 acquires the identification information of the user read by the reading device 1 (S101). Then, the process proceeds to the process of S102.

[0041] Next, the authentication unit 21 determines whether the authentication of the user's identification information acquired in S101 is successful or failed based on the user's authentication information prestored in the storage unit 22 (S102). If the authentication unit 21 determines that the user's identification information fails the authentication (NO in S102), the process proceeds to the process of S109. Then, the control unit 24 maintains the locking of the electronic lock 3 (S109), and ends the process (S199). If the authentication unit 21 determines that the user's identification information is successfully authenticated (YES in S102), the process proceeds to the process of S103.

[0042] Next, the control unit 24 refers to the storage unit 22 and determines whether the user's identification information satisfies the physical exemption condition (S103). If the control unit 24 determines that the user's identification information satisfies the physical exemption condition (YES in S103), the process proceeds to the process of S108. Then, the control unit 24 unlocks the electronic lock 3 (S108), and ends the process (S199).

[0043] On the other hand, if the control unit 24 determines that the user's identification information does not satisfy the physical exemption condition (NO in S103), the process proceeds to the process of S104.

[0044] Next, the control unit 24 refers to the storage unit 22 and determines whether the identification information of the user satisfies the time exemption condition (S104). If the control unit 24 determines that the identification information of the user satisfies the time exemption condition (YES in S104), the process proceeds to the process of S108. Thereafter, the control unit 24 unlocks the electronic lock 3 (S108) and ends the process (S199).

[0045] On the other hand, if the control unit 24 determines that the identification information of the user does not satisfy the time exemption condition (NO in S104), the process proceeds to the process of S105.

[0046] Next, the control unit 24 causes the instruction notification unit 25 to notify the user that the fingers are to be disinfected by the disinfection device 4 (S105). Thereafter, the process proceeds to the process of S106.

[0047] Next, the control unit 24 determines whether or not more than the first hour has elapsed since the process of the authentication unit 21 in S102 (S106). If more than the first hour has elapsed since the process of the authentication unit 21 in S102 (YES in S106), the process proceeds to the process of S109. Thereafter, the control unit 24 maintains the locking of the electronic lock 3 (S109) and ends the process (S199). On the other hand, if less than the first hour has elapsed since the process of the authentication unit 21 in S102 (NO in S106), the process proceeds to the process of S107.

[0048] Next, the finger disinfection determination unit 23 determines whether or not the user has disinfected the fingers within the first hour depending on whether or not a disinfection completion signal has been received from the disinfection device 4 (S107). If the finger disinfection determination unit 23 has not received a disinfection completion signal from the disinfection device 4 and determines that the user has not disinfected the fingers within the first hour (NO in S107), the process returns to the process of S106. If the finger disinfection determination unit 23 has received a disinfection completion signal from the disinfection device 4 and determines that the user has disinfected the fingers within the first hour (YES in S107), the process proceeds to the process of S108. Thereafter, the control unit 24 unlocks the electronic lock 3 (S108) and ends the process (S199).

[0049] Next, the operation of the disinfection device 4 will be described. The disinfection device 4 starts processing from S200. Until the human sensor 42 detects an operation of disinfecting the user's finger near the nozzle 41 (NO in S201), the disinfection device 4 repeats the processing of S201. When the human sensor 42 detects an operation of disinfecting the user's finger near the nozzle 41 (YES in S201), the process proceeds to S202.

[0050] Next, the disinfection control unit 43 sprays the disinfectant from the nozzle 41 (S202), and then proceeds to the processing of S203.

[0051] Next, the disinfection control unit 43 transmits a disinfection completion signal indicating that the disinfectant has been sprayed on the access control device 2 (S203). Then, the process returns to the processing of S201.

[0052] Next, the effects of the present embodiment will be described.

[0053] As described above, in the access control system 100 according to the present embodiment, the finger disinfection determination unit 23 determines whether the user has disinfected the finger with the disinfection device 4. Further, after the authentication unit 21 determines that the authentication of the user's identification information is successful, when the finger disinfection determination unit 23 determines that the user has disinfected the finger within the first hour, the control unit 24 unlocks the electronic lock 3, and when the finger disinfection determination unit 23 determines that the user has not disinfected the finger within the first hour, the control unit 24 maintains the locking of the electronic lock 3. On the other hand, when the authentication unit 21 determines that the authentication of the user's identification information is successful and the exemption condition regarding the user's finger disinfection is satisfied, the control unit 24 unlocks the electronic lock 3.

[0054] When the exemption condition regarding the user's finger disinfection is satisfied, it is inappropriate for that user to disinfect the finger with the disinfection device 4. That is, that user will be forced to bear a physical burden due to inappropriate finger disinfection by the disinfection device 4.

[0055] In the present embodiment, when the authentication unit 21 determines that the authentication of the user's identification information is successful and the exemption conditions regarding the finger disinfection of the user are satisfied, the control unit 24 unlocks the electronic lock 3. That is, when the exemption conditions regarding the finger disinfection of the user are satisfied, the electronic lock 3 unlocks without the user performing finger disinfection with the disinfection device 4. As a result, there is an effect that a more user-friendly access control system 100 with a lower possibility of forcing finger disinfection with a disinfectant on users for whom finger disinfection with a disinfectant is inappropriate and a smaller physical burden can be obtained.

[0056] Also, the exemption conditions are, for example, physical exemption conditions under which the user is exempted from finger disinfection by the disinfection device 4 due to physical reasons. That is, the physical exemption conditions are attributes indicating that the user is exempted from finger disinfection by the disinfection device 4 due to physical reasons such as rough hands or allergies. It is inappropriate to force finger disinfection with a disinfectant on users who have physical reasons such as rough hands or allergies. Therefore, by setting the exemption conditions such that, for example, the user is exempted from finger disinfection by the disinfection device 4 due to physical reasons, there is an effect that a more user-friendly access control system 100 with a smaller physical burden can be obtained.

[0057] Another example of the exemption conditions is a time condition where the time from the time when the user last performed finger disinfection with the disinfection device 4 to the current time is within the second time period. That is, the time exemption condition is an attribute indicating whether the time from the current time to the time when the user last disinfected their fingers with the disinfection device 4 is within the second time period (for example, 10 minutes). Since the user frequently enters and exits the management area, it is considered normal behavior to pass through the door 31 multiple times within a short period. In such a case, it is inappropriate to force finger disinfection with a disinfectant on a user who has just disinfected their fingers within a short period. Therefore, by setting the exemption conditions such that the time from the time when the user last performed finger disinfection with the disinfection device 4 to the current time is within the second time period, there is an effect that a more user-friendly access control system 100 with a smaller physical burden can be obtained.

[0058] Modification Example 1 of Embodiment 1:

[0059] Note that the storage unit 22 may store the entry / exit history of users who meet the exemption conditions in their management areas. Specifically, when the authentication unit 21 authenticates the identification information of a user and the user meets the exemption conditions, the authentication unit 21 may store the entry / exit history indicating that the user was exempted from finger disinfection by the disinfection device 4 and passed through. As a result, if another user who was in the management area unfortunately contracts a specific infectious disease, by referring to the entry / exit history stored in the storage unit 22, there is an additional effect that it becomes easier to trace the infection route of the specific infectious disease.

[0060] Modification Example 2 of Embodiment 1:

[0061] Also, in the control unit 24 in the present embodiment, when the authentication unit 21 determines that the authentication of the user's identification information is successful and the user meets the exemption conditions regarding finger disinfection, the electronic lock 3 is unlocked. However, when the authentication unit 21 determines that the authentication of the identification information is successful and the user meets the exemption conditions regarding finger disinfection, the finger disinfection determination unit 23 may be configured to determine whether the finger has been disinfected by a second disinfection means (not shown) different from the first disinfection means. For example, if the first disinfection means is finger disinfection with ethanol, the second disinfection means may be a disinfection method with less physical burden (for example, finger washing with soapy water or running water different from ethanol). As a result, the same effect is achieved that an entry / exit management system 100 with less physical burden is obtained. Furthermore, since finger disinfection by a second disinfection means (not shown) is also performed on users who meet the exemption conditions, there is an additional effect that it is possible to reduce the decrease in the hygiene level within the management area.

[0062] Modification Example 3 of Embodiment 1:

[0063] Further, when the authentication unit 21 determines that the authentication of the user's identification information is successful and the exemption conditions regarding the user's finger disinfection are satisfied, the control unit 24 may cause a management notification unit (not shown) to issue a notification. The management notification unit (not shown) is a manager who manages the management area, and any means may be used as long as it can notify a person other than the user. For example, the management notification unit (not shown) may be a mobile terminal (not shown) held by the manager. For example, the management notification unit (not shown) may be provided in a management terminal in the management area or another location that manages the management area. Of course, the notification means by the management notification unit (not shown) may be by voice, or may be a notification by character information or graphic information.

[0064] As a result, the same effect of obtaining an access control system 100 with a smaller physical burden is achieved. Further, since the management notification unit (not shown) issues a notification before the user who satisfies the exemption conditions enters the management area, it is possible to prompt the user to disinfect their fingers by an appropriate disinfection method different from the first disinfection means. Furthermore, since it is possible to visually confirm that the user who satisfies the exemption conditions enters the management area, if another user in the management area contracts a specified infectious disease, it is easier to trace the infection route of the specified infectious disease.

[0065] Modification Example 4 of Embodiment 1:

[0066] The first disinfection means in this embodiment is the disinfection device 4. When the human sensor 42 detects the operation of disinfecting the user's finger, the disinfection device 4 sprays the disinfectant liquid onto the finger from the nozzle 41, and has a disinfection control unit 43 that transmits a disinfection completion signal indicating that the disinfectant liquid has been sprayed. Further, the finger disinfection determination unit 23 determines whether or not the user has disinfected the finger with the disinfection device 4 by receiving the disinfection completion signal. However, the first disinfection means does not necessarily have to be the disinfection device 4. For example, the first disinfection means may be a commercially available bottle (not shown) containing ethanol disinfectant liquid. In this case, the finger disinfection determination unit 23 may determine whether or not the user has disinfected the finger by analyzing the image from a camera (not shown) that monitors the bottle, and this can be realized by ordinary image analysis technology.

[0067] Next, with reference to FIG. 5, the hardware configuration of the entry / exit management device 2 will be described. FIG. 5 is a hardware configuration diagram of the entry / exit management device 2 in this embodiment.

[0068] Each function of the entry / exit management device 2 can be realized by a processing circuit. For example, the processing circuit includes at least one processor 1001 and at least one memory 1002. For example, the processing circuit includes at least one dedicated hardware 2001.

[0069] When the processing circuit includes at least one processor 1001 and at least one memory 1002, each function of the entry / exit management device 2 is realized by software, firmware, or a combination of software and firmware. At least one of the software and the firmware is described as a program. At least one of the software and the firmware is stored in at least one memory 1002. The at least one processor 1001 realizes each function of the entry / exit management device 2 by reading and executing the program stored in the at least one memory 1002. The at least one processor 1002 is also referred to as a central processing unit, a processing device, an arithmetic device, a microprocessor, a microcomputer, or a DSP. For example, the at least one memory 1002 is a non-volatile or volatile semiconductor memory such as a RAM, a ROM, a flash memory, an EPROM, or an EEPROM, a magnetic disk, a flexible disk, an optical disk, a compact disk, a mini disk, or a DVD.

[0070] When the processing circuit includes at least one dedicated hardware 2001, the processing circuit is realized by, for example, a single circuit, a composite circuit, a programmed processor, a parallel-programmed processor, an ASIC, an FPGA, or a combination thereof. For example, each function of the authentication device 9 is realized by the processing circuit respectively. For example, each function of the entry / exit management device 2 is realized by the processing circuit collectively.

[0071] Regarding each function of the authentication device 1, part of the function may be realized by dedicated hardware 2001, and the other part may be realized by software or firmware. For example, the functions of the authentication unit 21, the storage unit 22, and the finger disinfection determination unit 23 are realized by a processing circuit as dedicated hardware 2001, and the functions other than the authentication unit 21, the storage unit 22, and the finger disinfection determination unit 23 may be realized by the at least one processor 1001 reading and executing the program stored in the at least one memory 1002.
