Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0013] Before specifically describing embodiments of the present disclosure, the findings underlying the embodiments will be explained. In recent years, by connecting devices to the Internet, device information is displayed on a terminal device such as a smartphone. For example, when a device is equipped with a temperature sensor, temperature information is displayed on the terminal device. As the number of devices connectable to such a network increases, a plurality of devices can be installed in one space. Under such circumstances, when the information acquired from the devices is displayed for each device on the terminal device, the user has to check and estimate the information of a plurality of devices in order to grasp the temperature of that space. Therefore, it is required to present the information of the space required by the user more clearly by collecting, calculating, and displaying the information of the devices in units of space.

[0014] FIGS. 1(a)-(c) show the configuration of the notification system 1000. The notification system 1000 includes an air purifier 100, a ventilation fan 110, an air conditioner 120, a router 200, a network 300, a server 400, a terminal device 500, and a smart speaker 600. The air purifier 100, the ventilation fan 110, and the air conditioner 120 are collectively referred to as devices.

[0015] The air purifier 100 is a device having a removal function for removing dust, pollen, house dust, etc. floating in the air. The air purifier 100 is equipped with, for example, a thermometer for measuring temperature, a hygrometer for measuring humidity, a particulate matter sensor for measuring the density of particulate matter such as PM2.5, a gas sensor for measuring the density of gas, and a dust sensor for measuring the density of dust. The thermometer, hygrometer, particulate matter sensor, gas sensor, and dust sensor are collectively referred to as sensors.

[0016] The ventilation fan 110 is for exhausting and discharging indoor air or replacing (ventilating) with outdoor air. It is a device that is forcibly executed by [the name of the entity]. The ventilation fan 110 is equipped with, for example, a thermometer for measuring temperature, a hygrometer for measuring humidity, and a CO2 sensor for measuring the density of CO2. The thermometer, hygrometer, and CO2 sensor are also collectively referred to as sensors. The air conditioner 120 is one of the air conditioning facilities and is a device that adjusts the temperature, humidity, etc. of the indoor air. The air conditioner 120 is equipped with, for example, a thermometer for measuring temperature and a hygrometer for measuring humidity. The thermometer and hygrometer are also collectively referred to as sensors. Thus, different types of sensors are installed for each device.

[0017] The air purifier 100, ventilation fan 110, and air conditioner 120 have a communication function of wireless communication or wired communication and can communicate with a router 200 installed in the facility where they are installed. The router 200 executes communication with the terminal device 500 and smart speaker 600 within the facility and also executes communication with a network 300 outside the facility. The network 300 is, for example, the Internet and is composed of wired communication, wireless communication, or a combination thereof. A server 400 is connected to the network 300.

[0018] With such a configuration, the detection results of the sensors of the air purifier 100, ventilation fan 110, and air conditioner 120 can be confirmed on the terminal device 500 or smart speaker 600. The terminal device 500 or smart speaker 600 transmits a signal (hereinafter referred to as a "request signal") for requesting the transmission of the detection result to the server 400 via the router 200 and network 300. The server 400 transmits the request signal to the air purifier 100, ventilation fan 110, and air conditioner 120 via the network 300 and router 200. The air purifier 100, ventilation fan 110, and air conditioner 120 transmit the detection results to the server 400 via the router 200 and network 300. The server 400 transmits the detection results to the terminal device 500 and smart speaker 600 via the network 300 and router 200. The terminal device 500 and smart speaker 60 display the detection results or output them as sound.

[0019] In the terminal device 500 and the smart speaker 600, if the detection results of the sensors are output as they are, it will be difficult for the user to understand. Therefore, the server 400 executes processing on the detection results and transmits the results of the processing to the terminal device 500 and the smart speaker 600 via the network 300 and the router 200. The terminal device 500 and the smart speaker 600 display the results of the processing or output them as audio. Hereinafter, such processing will be described in detail.

[0020] FIG. 2 shows the configuration of the room in which the notification system 1000 is installed. The facility is, for example, a house and includes a plurality of rooms. Each of the plurality of rooms includes, for example, a living room 700, a bedroom 710, a dining room 720, and a Japanese-style room 730. It can be said that the living room 700, the bedroom 710, the dining room 720, and the Japanese-style room 730 are each independent spaces. In the living room 700, a first air purifier 100a and a second air purifier 100b are installed. In the bedroom 710, a third air purifier 100c, a first ventilation fan 110a, and an air conditioner 120 are installed. In the dining room 720, a fourth air purifier 100d is installed. In the Japanese-style room 730, a fifth air purifier 100e and a second ventilation fan 110b are installed. The first air purifier 100a, the second air purifier 100b, the third air purifier 100c, the fourth air purifier 100d, and the fifth air purifier 100e are collectively referred to as the air purifier 100, and the first ventilation fan 110a and the second ventilation fan 110b are collectively referred to as the ventilation fan 110. Here, in the living room 700, a plurality of devices equipped with the same sensor are installed, and in the bedroom 710 and the Japanese-style room 730, a plurality of devices equipped with different sensors are installed.

[0021] FIGS. 3(a)-(c) show the information in the notification system 1000. FIG. 3(a) shows the first air purifier 100a and the second air purifier 100b installed in the living room 700 of FIG. 2. It shows the detection results. The temperature value and humidity value detected in the first air purifier 100a are shown as the original values. Also, each of the gas detection value, small dust detection value, large dust detection value, and PM2.5 detection value in the first air purifier 100a is shown on a six - level dirt level scale from 0 to 5. For example, it is assumed that the higher the detected value, the closer the dirt level is to "5". For such a six - level evaluation, a plurality of threshold values are preset in the first air purifier 100a, and the detected value is compared with the plurality of threshold values. Furthermore, the pollen detection value in the first air purifier 100a is shown on a two - level dirt level scale from 0 to 1. The dirt level "0" indicates the case where no pollen is detected, and the dirt level "1" indicates the case where pollen is detected. The same applies to the second air purifier 100b. Figures 3(b) - (c) will be described later.

[0022] Figures 4(a) - (b) show the configurations of the server 400 and the terminal device 500. The server 400 in Figure 4(a) includes a communication unit 410, a control unit 420, and a storage unit 430. As described above, the detection results of each of the plurality of devices are transmitted to the server 400 via the router 200 and the network 300. Each of the plurality of devices is, for example, the air purifier 100, the ventilation fan 110, and the air conditioner 120 in Figures 1 and 2. Here, each detection result includes identification information "ID" for identifying the device that is the source of transmission. The communication unit 410 receives the detection results. The communication unit 410 outputs the received detection results to the control unit 420. Therefore, it can be said that the control unit 420 acquires the detection results of each of the plurality of devices from each of the plurality of devices. The control unit 420 stores the detection results in the storage unit 430 based on the ID included in the detection results.

[0023] The storage unit 430 stores the detection results for each ID. Further, the storage unit 430 stores the correspondence between the ID and the identification information of the space where the device with the ID is installed (hereinafter referred to as "space ID"). For example, the living room 700 in FIG. 2 is assigned the space ID "1", the bedroom 710 is assigned the space ID "2", the dining room 720 is assigned the space ID "3", and the Japanese-style room 730 is assigned the space ID "4". Based on the correspondence stored in the storage unit 430, the control unit 420 summarizes the detection results of each device stored in the storage unit 430 as detection results for each space ID. This corresponds to summarizing the detection results of each device by room, that is, by the same space.

[0024] For example, the detection results for the space ID "1" are the detection results of the sensors mounted on the first air purifier 100a and the second air purifier 100b arranged in the living room 700. Therefore, these detection results are the detection values of temperature, humidity, gas, dust (small, large), particulate matter (PM2.5), and pollen. That is, values of multiple types of components are acquired. The control unit 420 derives air quality information that is the summary of the detection results from two or more devices arranged in the same space and includes values of multiple types of components. Specifically, the control unit 420 performs statistical processing for each component on the detection results from two or more devices arranged in the same space. Here, the air quality information is the general term for information such as temperature, humidity, gas, dust (small, large), particulate matter (PM2.5), and pollen in the air.

[0025] When the temperature in the first air purifier 100a indicates 22°C and the temperature in the second air purifier 100b indicates 24°C, the control unit 420 derives the temperature "23°C" of the living room 700 by averaging these temperatures. The control unit 420 also performs an averaging process for humidity in the same manner as for temperature. Further, the control unit 420 compares the gas detection value in the first air purifier 100a with the gas detection value in the second air purifier 100b and selects the maximum value. For example, when the gas detection value in the first air purifier 100a indicates a dirt level "1" and the gas detection value in the second air purifier 100b indicates a dirt level "3", the gas detection value in the living room 700 is set to the dirt level "3". The control unit 420 performs the same processing for the detection values of dust (small, large), particulate matter (PM2.5), and pollen detection values as for the gas detection value. Here, the control unit 420 may use any of the minimum value, maximum value, and average value for each component. Such processing is shown as in Fig. 3(b). As a result, the control unit 420 generates air quality information in the living room 700, which has a plurality of types of components such as temperature, humidity, gas detection value, dust (small, large) detection value, particulate matter (PM2.5) detection value, and pollen detection value.

[0026] Also, the detection results for the space ID "2" are the detection results from the sensors installed in the third air purifier 100c, the first ventilation fan 110a, and the air conditioner 120, which are arranged in the bedroom 710. Therefore, these detection results are the detection values of temperature, humidity, gas, dust (small, large), particulate matter (PM2.5), pollen, and CO2. Here, the detection value of CO2 is output only from the first ventilation fan 110a, and the detection values of gas, dust (small, large), particulate matter (PM2.5), and pollen are output only from the third air purifier 100c. Therefore, the control unit 420 uses the detection value of CO2 from the first ventilation fan 110a as the detection value of CO2 in the bedroom 710. Also, the control unit 420 uses the detection values of gas, dust (small, large), particulate matter (PM2.5), and pollen from the third air purifier 100c as the detection values of those in the bedroom 710. For temperature and humidity, the same processing as that in the living room 700 is performed. As a result, the control unit 420 generates air quality information in the bedroom 710, which has multiple types of components such as the detection values of temperature, humidity, gas, dust (small, large), particulate matter (PM2.5), pollen, and CO2.

[0027] The control unit 420 performs the same processing for the dining room 720 with the space ID "3" and the Japanese-style room 730 with the space ID "4". The communication unit 410 transmits the air quality information for each space to the terminal device 500 via the network 300 and the router 200.

[0028] The terminal device 500 in Fig. 4(b) includes a communication unit 510, a control unit 520, a display unit 530, and an operation unit 540. The communication unit 510 receives air quality information from the server 400. The communication unit 510 outputs the air quality information to the control unit 520. Therefore, it can be said that the control unit 520 obtains from the server 400 air quality information that includes values of multiple types of components and summarizes the detection results for each of the multiple devices arranged in the same space. In particular, the values of the multiple types of components included in the air quality information are two or more of the detection values of temperature, humidity, gas, detection values of dust (small, large), detection values of particulate matter (PM2.5), detection values of pollen, and detection values of CO2.

[0029] Based on the values of multiple types of components included in the air quality information in one space, the control unit 520 derives one indicator indicating the air quality in that space. Figs. 5(a)-(c) show an overview of the processing in the control unit 520. Fig. 5(a) shows the data structure of the table used to derive one indicator. The vertical axis shows the dirt level for the detected gas value, and the horizontal axis shows the dirt levels for the detected values of dust (small, large), particulate matter (PM2.5), and pollen. When the dirt level on the vertical axis is "0" and the dirt level on the horizontal axis is "0", an indicator with the message "clean" surrounded by a ring of the first color is associated. When the dirt level on the vertical axis is "1" and the dirt level on the horizontal axis is "0", or when the dirt level on the vertical axis is "2" and the dirt level on the horizontal axis is "0" or "1", an indicator with the message "smelly" surrounded by a ring of the second color is associated. When the dirt level on the horizontal axis is "1" and the dirt level on the vertical axis is either "0" or "1", or when the dirt level on the horizontal axis is "2" and the dirt level on the vertical axis is any of "0" to "2", an indicator with the message "dusty" surrounded by a ring of the second color is associated.

[0030] When the dirt level on the vertical axis is "3" and the dirt level on the horizontal axis is either "0" to "2", or when the dirt level on the vertical axis is "4" and the dirt level on the horizontal axis is either "0" to "3", or when the dirt level on the vertical axis is "5" and the dirt level on the horizontal axis is either "0" to "4", an indicator with the message "odor" surrounded by a third-color annulus is associated. When the dirt level on the horizontal axis is "3" and the dirt level on the vertical axis is either "0" or "3", or when the dirt level on the horizontal axis is "4" and the dirt level on the vertical axis is either "0" to "4", or when the dirt level on the horizontal axis is "5" and the dirt level on the vertical axis is either "0" to "5", an indicator with the message "dust-like" surrounded by a third-color annulus is associated. Here, the first color, the second color, and the third color are different from each other. For example, the first color is green, the second color is yellow, and the third color is red. Also, the first color, the second color, and the third color may be defined by differences in concentration. For example, the first color is shown as the lightest and the third color is shown as the darkest.

[0031] The control unit 520 associates the detected value of the gas included in the air quality information with the vertical axis. Also, the control unit 520 selects the maximum value among the detected values of dust (small, large), particulate matter (PM2.5), and pollen included in the air quality information. Further, the control unit 520 associates the maximum value with the horizontal axis. Thereby, the control unit 520 obtains an indicator that is one indicator and has a message surrounded by an annulus. That is, the control unit 520 derives one indicator based on the relationship between one value among the detected values of dust (small, large), particulate matter (PM2.5), and pollen and the detected value of the gas.

[0032] In addition, the control unit 520 classifies a plurality of types of components included in the air quality information into three icon display sensor groups as shown in FIG. 5(b). The control unit 520 classifies the detection values of dust (small, large), particulate matter (PM2.5), and pollen into the icon display sensor group "House Dust / Pollen", classifies the detection value of particulate matter (PM2.5) into the icon display sensor group "PM2.5", and classifies the detection value of gas into the icon display sensor group "Odor".

[0033] The control unit 520 selects the maximum pollution level among the detection values of dust (small, large), particulate matter (PM2.5), and pollen in the icon display sensor group "House Dust / Pollen". The control unit 520 specifies the number of icons from the selected maximum pollution level based on the relationship shown in FIG. 5(c). Also, the control unit 520 specifies the number of icons from the detection value of particulate matter (PM2.5) in the icon display sensor group "PM2.5" based on the relationship shown in FIG. 5(c). Further, the control unit 520 specifies the number of icons from the detection value of gas in the icon display sensor group "Odor" based on the relationship shown in FIG. 5(c). The results of such processing are shown as in FIG. 3(c).

[0034] The control unit 520 generates a screen based on the derived one index and the number of icons in the icon display sensor group, and displays the screen on the display unit 530. FIGS. 6(a)-(c) show the screens displayed on the display unit 530. As shown in FIG. 6(a), the name of the room is shown in the space display column 800. Here, it is assumed that the space is the living room 700. Below the space display column 800, a temperature / humidity display column 810 is arranged. In the temperature / humidity display column 810, the temperature and humidity in the living room 700 are shown. Below the temperature / humidity display column 810, the index 820 derived by the control unit 520 is shown.

[0035] Furthermore, at the bottom of the screen, the odor group 830, the PM2.5 group 840, and the house dust / pollen group 850 are arranged horizontally. The odor group 830 shows a specific number of icons for the icon display sensor group "odor". The PM2.5 group 840 shows a specific number of icons for the icon display sensor group "PM2.5". The house dust / pollen group 850 shows a specific number of icons for the icon display sensor group "house dust / pollen". FIGS. 6(b)-(c) show the screen for a space different from that of FIG. 6(a). Since this is shown in the same way as FIG. 6(a), the description is omitted here. The specific number of icons is shown. The house dust / pollen group 850 shows a specific number of icons for the icon display sensor group "house dust / pollen". FIGS. 6(b)-(c) show the screen for a space different from that of FIG. 6(a). Since this is shown in the same way as FIG. 6(a), the description is omitted here.

[0036] The operation unit 540 is an interface that receives the user's operation. The operation unit 540 is, for example, a touch panel or a button. When the operation unit 540 is a touch panel, the display unit 530 and the operation unit 540 are integrally configured. Since the smart speaker 600 in FIG. 1 executes the same processing as the terminal device 500, the description is omitted here. In that case, in the smart speaker 600, instead of the display in the terminal device 500, an output by voice is made.

[0037] The notification system 1000 in FIG. 1(b) includes a first base station device 310a and a second base station device 310b collectively referred to as the base station device 310 as compared with FIG. 1(a). A SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card 320 can be inserted into the air cleaner 100. The air cleaner 100 connects to the first base station device 310a and communicates with the server 400 via the network 300. Also, the terminal device 500 connects to the second base station device 310b and connects to the server 400 via the network 300. That is, the air cleaner 100 and the terminal device 500 connect to the server 400 without going through the router 200. The notification system 1000 in FIG. 1(c) does not include the network 300 and the server 400 as compared with FIG. 1(a). Therefore, the processing that has been performed in the server 400 so far is executed in the terminal device 500 or the smart speaker 600.

[0038] The subject of the apparatus, system, or method in the present disclosure includes a computer. By executing a program on this computer, the functions of the subject of the apparatus, system, or method in the present disclosure are realized. The computer mainly includes a processor that operates according to the program as a hardware configuration. The type of the processor is not limited as long as it can realize functions by executing the program. The processor is composed of one or more electronic circuits including a semiconductor integrated circuit (IC) or LSI (Large Scale Integration). The plurality of electronic circuits may be integrated on one chip or provided on a plurality of chips. The plurality of chips may be integrated into one device or provided in a plurality of devices. The program is recorded on a non-transitory recording medium such as a computer-readable ROM, optical disk, or hard disk drive. The program may be pre-stored in the recording medium or supplied to the recording medium via a wide area communication network including the Internet or the like.

[0039] The operation of the notification system 1000 with the above configuration will be described. FIG. 7 is a sequence diagram showing the display procedure by the notification system 1000. The terminal device 500 transmits a request signal to the server 400 (S10). The server 400 transmits the request signal to the first air purifier 100a (S12) and transmits the request signal to the second air purifier 100b (S14). The first air purifier 100a transmits the detection result to the server 400 (S16), and the second air purifier 100b transmits the detection result to the server 400 (S18). The server 400 derives air quality information obtained by summarizing the detection results for each room (S20). The server 400 transmits the air quality information to the terminal device 500 (S22). The terminal device 500 derives an index based on the air quality information (S24) and displays a screen including the index on the display unit 530 (S26).

[0040] According to this embodiment, based on the values of multiple types of components included in the air quality information that summarizes the detection results of each of a plurality of devices arranged in the same space, one index indicating the air quality in the same space is displayed on the screen, so that the air quality in one space can be notified. Also, since the air quality in one space is known, the user can instantly grasp the information of the space. Also, since the values of multiple types of components included in the air quality information are two or more of the detection value of gas, the detection value of dust, the detection value of particulate matter, and the detection value of pollen, the details of the air quality can be grasped. Also, based on the relationship between one value among the detection value of dust, the detection value of particulate matter, and the detection value of pollen and the detection value of gas, one index is derived, so that the air quality in one space can be notified in an easy-to-understand manner. Moreover, among the plurality of devices, air quality information that summarizes the detection results from two or more devices arranged in the same space and that includes the values of multiple types of components is derived, so that the air quality in one space can be notified. Also, by performing statistical processing for each component on the detection results from two or more devices arranged in the same space, the air quality information is derived, so that the accuracy of the derived air quality can be improved. Also, since the maximum value is selected as the statistical processing, the worst air quality can be notified.

[0041]

[0042] The outline of one aspect of the present disclosure is as follows. A program according to an aspect of the present disclosure causes a computer to execute steps of: acquiring from the outside air quality information that includes the values of multiple types of components and that summarizes the detection results of each of a plurality of devices arranged in the same space; deriving, based on the values of the multiple types of components included in the acquired air quality information, one index indicating the air quality in the same space; and displaying the derived one index on the screen.

[0043] The values of the multiple types of components included in the air quality information acquired in the acquiring step may be two or more of the detection value of gas, the detection value of dust, the detection value of particulate matter, and the detection value of pollen.​

[0044] In the step of obtaining, the values of a plurality of types of components included in the air quality information obtained in the obtaining step include the detection value of the gas, and in the step of deriving, one index may be derived based on the relationship between one value among the detection value of dust, the detection value of particulate matter, and the detection value of pollen, and the detection value of the gas.

[0045] A computer that executes the programs described above is also an object of the present disclosure.

[0046] Another aspect of the present disclosure is also a program. This program causes a computer to execute a step of obtaining detection results from each of a plurality of devices, a step of deriving air quality information that summarizes the detection results from two or more devices arranged in the same space among the plurality of devices and that includes values of a plurality of types of components, and a step of outputting the derived air quality information.

[0047] In the step of deriving, air quality information may be derived by performing statistical processing for each component on the detection results from two or more devices arranged in the same space.

[0048] In the step of deriving, the maximum value may be selected as the statistical processing.
