[0010] The following detailed description will be given with reference to the drawings. Duplicate descriptions will be simplified or omitted as appropriate. In each drawing, the same reference numerals indicate the same or corresponding parts.

[0011] Embodiment 1 1 is a diagram showing an example of an information system 1 according to Embodiment 1. The information system 1 includes a facility 2, a terminal 3, and a server 4.

[0012] The equipment 2 is provided inside a building. The equipment 2 includes a control device 21 and a controlled device 22. The controlled device 22 is controlled by the control device 21. As an example, the equipment 2 is signage. If the equipment 2 is signage, the controlled device 22 is a display controlled by the control device 21. As another example, the equipment 2 is an elevator. If the equipment 2 is an elevator, the controlled device 22 is a drive machine or the like for driving the car that people ride in. As another example, the equipment 2 is an escalator. If the equipment 2 is an escalator, the controlled device 22 is a drive machine or the like for driving the steps that people ride on.

[0013] As another example, the equipment 2 is a management device for managing entry and exit. If the equipment 2 is a management device, the controlled device 22 is a door locking device installed at the entrance to the room. As another example, the equipment 2 is an air conditioner. If the equipment 2 is an air conditioner, the controlled device 22 is a compressor for compressing a refrigerant, etc. As another example, the equipment 2 is a lighting device. If the equipment 2 is a lighting device, the controlled device 22 is a light source.

[0014] The information system 1 may include all of the illustrated facilities 2, or may include only some of the facilities 2. The information system 1 may also include other facilities 2 that are not illustrated.

[0015] The control device 21 includes a storage unit 23, an operation control unit 24, an information acquisition unit 25, and a transmission unit 26. The operation control unit 24 controls the operation of the controlled device 22. If the facility 2 is an elevator, the operation control unit 24 controls the operation of a driving machine for driving the car, the operation of equipment provided in the car, etc.

[0016] The storage unit 23 stores information for identifying the facility 2, i.e., facility identification information, in advance. The storage unit 23 also stores information regarding the attributes of the facility 2, i.e., facility attribute information in advance. The facility attribute information may include information indicating the area in which the facility 2 is installed, information indicating the building in which the facility 2 is installed, information indicating the floor in which the facility 2 is installed, information indicating the location in which the facility 2 is installed, and information indicating whether the facility 2 belongs to the same facility group as another facility 2. For example, if a facility 2 and another facility 2 are the same model, are products of the same series, or are managed by the same building manager, these facilities 2 can be said to belong to the same facility group. The facility attribute information may include all of the exemplified information, or only some of the information. The facility attribute information may also include other information not listed in the examples.

[0017] For example, if facility 2 is an elevator system and control device 21 is a device that performs group control of all elevators in a building, the facility attribute information may include information indicating the number of elevators installed in the building. If facility 2 is an elevator, the facility attribute information may include information indicating floors at which the car can stop and information indicating the time it takes for the car to move between floors. The facility identification information and facility attribute information are registered in memory unit 23, for example, when construction work is carried out to install facility 2 in the building. If facility 2 does not have a memory unit 23, the facility identification information and facility attribute information may be stored in memory unit 41 of server 4.

[0018] The information acquisition unit 25 acquires information related to the operation of the equipment 2, i.e., equipment operation information. The equipment operation information is information related to the equipment 2 and may change depending on the operation of the equipment 2. It should be noted that the equipment attribute information does not change depending on the operation of the equipment 2. If the equipment 2 is an elevator, the equipment operation information may include information indicating the number of passengers in the car (total load weight) and information indicating the waiting time at the landing. The waiting time is the time spent waiting at the landing after calling the car and before getting on the car. The equipment operation information may also include other information. The equipment operation information acquired by the information acquisition unit 25 is stored in the memory unit 23. If the equipment 2 does not have the memory unit 23, the equipment operation information may be stored in the memory unit 41 of the server 4.

[0019] The transmitter 26 transmits the information stored in the memory unit 23 to the server 4. Specifically, the transmitter 26 transmits facility-related information linked to the facility identification information to the server 4. The facility-related information includes facility attribute information and facility operation information. The transmitter 26 may transmit the facility attribute information linked to the facility identification information to the server 4 immediately after the facility 2 is installed in the building, and may transmit the facility operation information linked to the facility identification information to the server 4 at an appropriate timing thereafter. The transmitter 26 may transmit the facility operation information linked to the facility identification information to the server 4 every time an operation is performed in the facility 2.

[0020] Terminal 3 is a terminal carried by a user. As an example, terminal 3 is a smartphone. Terminal 3 may also be an electronic tag or an IC card. Terminal 3 may also be a wearable device such as a smart watch, or a ubiquitous terminal. Examples of terminal 3 are not limited to these. A user uses terminal 3 when using facility 2. In other words, terminal 3 has functions for using facility 2. If terminal 3 is a smartphone or the like, an application for using facility 2 may be installed on terminal 3.

[0021] For example, if facility 2 is an elevator, a user can perform a specific operation on terminal 3, causing terminal 3 to send a signal requesting a call to facility 2. Terminal 3 can receive a signal from the elevator, causing terminal 3 to automatically send a signal requesting a call to facility 2. An area in which call requests from terminal 3 can be made may be set in advance, and when terminal 3 enters this area, a signal requesting a call may be automatically sent from terminal 3 to facility 2. As another example, if facility 2 is a management device for managing entry and exit, a user can hold terminal 3 over a reading device, causing terminal 3 to send a signal for identity authentication to facility 2. When a user approaches the door, terminal 3 can automatically send a signal for identity authentication to facility 2. The signal sent from terminal 3 when using facility 2 may be sent to facility 2 via server 4.

[0022] The terminal 3 includes a storage unit 31, an operation control unit 32, an information acquisition unit 33, and a transmission unit 34. The operation control unit 32 controls the operation of the terminal 3.

[0023] Information for identifying a user, i.e., user identification information, is stored in advance in the storage unit 31. The user may be a person who has been registered in advance as a person authorized to use the facility 2. The user identification information may be stored in the storage unit 41 of the server 4 instead of being stored in the storage unit 31.

[0024] Furthermore, information regarding the attributes of the user, i.e., user attribute information, is stored in advance in the memory unit 31. The user attribute information may not be stored in the memory unit 31 but may be stored in the memory unit 41 of the server 4. The user attribute information may include information indicating the user's name, gender, and age. The user attribute information may include information indicating the user's occupation, such as IT, construction, finance, or cosmetics. If facility 2 is an elevator, the user attribute information may include information indicating the floor on which the user's company office is located, i.e., the destination floor when using facility 2. The user attribute information may include all of the exemplified information, or only some of the information. The user attribute information may also include other information not exemplified.

[0025] Before starting to use the facility 2 or a service in the building where the facility 2 is installed, the user performs a specific operation on the terminal 3 to input their own user attribute information. This input user attribute information is stored in the storage unit 31. The transmission unit 34 transmits the user attribute information linked to the user identification information to the server 4 based on the information stored in the storage unit 31. Note that the user attribute information may be stored in the storage unit 41 of the server 4 instead of being stored in the storage unit 31.

[0026] The information acquisition unit 33 acquires information regarding the use of the facility 2 by the user, i.e., facility usage information. For example, the facility usage information is a history of the user's use of the facility 2 and statistical information on that history. The facility usage information may include information indicating the facility 2 used, information indicating the date and time the facility 2 was used, and information indicating the number of times the facility 2 was used. The facility usage information may include all of the exemplified information, or may include only some of the information. The facility usage information may also include other information not exemplified. If the facility 2 is an elevator, the facility usage information may include information indicating when, which elevator in which building was used, and from which floor to which floor the user traveled. The facility usage information acquired by the information acquisition unit 33 is stored in the memory unit 31. The facility usage information may be stored in the memory unit 41 of the server 4 instead of being stored in the memory unit 31.

[0027] The transmitter 34 transmits the facility usage information linked to the user attribute information to the server 4 based on the information stored in the memory 31. The transmitter 34 may transmit the user attribute information linked to the user identification information to the server 4 immediately after the user attribute information is input, and may transmit the facility usage information linked to the user attribute information to the server 4 at an appropriate timing thereafter. The transmitter 34 may transmit the facility usage information linked to the user attribute information to the server 4 every time the user uses the facility 2.

[0028] The facility 2 and the terminal 3 can communicate with the server 4 via a network. The server 4 is an example of an information processing device. The server 4 may be a cloud server. The server 4 includes a storage unit 41, a receiving unit 42, a counting processing unit 43, an input unit 44, an analysis processing unit 45, and an output unit 46.

[0029] The functions of the information system 1 will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS.

[0030] 2 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation of the server 4. The server 4 determines whether or not it has received facility-related information (S101). As described above, the transmitter 26 of the facility 2 transmits the facility-related information linked to the facility identification information to the server 4. The receiver 42 receives the facility-related information linked to the facility identification information from the facility 2 (Yes in S101). The facility-related information received by the receiver 42 in S101 is stored in the memory 41 (S102).

[0031] As shown in FIG. 1, the server 4 communicates with a large number of facilities 2. The facilities 2 with which the server 4 can communicate may be located in a plurality of areas. The facilities 2 with which the server 4 can communicate may be located in a plurality of buildings in a single area. The facilities 2 with which the server 4 can communicate may be located on a plurality of floors in a single building. A plurality of facilities 2 with which the server 4 can communicate may be located on a single floor. The memory unit 41 stores facility-related information linked to facility identification information from each of these large number of facilities 2.

[0032] The server 4 determines whether or not the user attribute information has been received (S103). As described above, the transmission unit 34 of the terminal 3 transmits the user attribute information linked to the user identification information to the server 4. The reception unit 42 receives the user attribute information linked to the user identification information from the terminal 3 (Yes in S103). The user attribute information received by the reception unit 42 in S103 is stored in the storage unit 41 (S104).

[0033] 1, the server 4 communicates with a large number of terminals 3. The storage unit 41 stores user attribute information linked to user identification information from each of the large number of terminals 3.

[0034] The server 4 determines whether or not the facility usage information has been received (S105). As described above, the transmitter 34 of the terminal 3 transmits the facility usage information linked to the user attribute information to the server 4. The receiver 42 receives the facility usage information linked to the user attribute information from the terminal 3 (Yes in S105). The facility usage information received by the receiver 42 in S105 is stored in the memory 41 (S106). The memory 41 stores the facility usage information linked to the user attribute information from each of the multiple terminals 3.

[0035] The processes shown in S101 to S106 are repeatedly performed, whereby information from the equipment 2 and information from the terminal 3 are accumulated in the storage unit 41.

[0036] 3 is a flowchart showing another example of operation of the server 4. The tallying unit 43 performs a predetermined tallying process using information stored in the storage unit 41 (S201). The information used by the tallying unit 43 to perform the tallying process includes facility-related information linked to facility identification information from the facility 2, user attribute information linked to user identification information from the terminal 3, and facility usage information linked to user attribute information from the terminal 3.

[0037] For example, the aggregation process performed by the aggregation processing unit 43 is determined in advance so that the results can be used to analyze advertisements suitable for a specific location. The specific location includes a location visible to people who are using the equipment 2. The specific location may also include a location visible to people who are about to use the equipment 2. The specific location may also include a location visible to people who have used the equipment 2. For example, the specific location may be the floor, building, or area where the equipment 2 is located.

[0038] As an example, the counting process performed by the counting processing unit 43 may include counting the number of users on an hourly basis for the facility 2. The counting process performed by the counting processing unit 43 may include counting the number of users on a daily basis for the facility 2. The counting processing unit 43 can count the number of users on an hourly basis and the number of users on a daily basis by determining the number of people who used the facility 2 from the facility-related information and determining the time when the facility 2 was used from the facility usage information.

[0039] The counting process performed by the counting processing unit 43 may include counting the number of users per area for multiple areas. The counting process performed by the counting processing unit 43 may include counting the number of users per building for multiple buildings. The counting process performed by the counting processing unit 43 may include counting the number of users per floor for multiple floors. The counting processing unit 43 can count the number of users per area, per building, and per floor by identifying the equipment 2 used from the equipment usage information and identifying the location of the equipment 2 from the equipment-related information. These counts may be performed per hour or per day. By counting the number of users, the congestion degree of each of the above-mentioned units may be further determined.

[0040] As another example, the counting process performed by the counting processing unit 43 may include counting the number of users by gender for facility 2. The counting process performed by the counting processing unit 43 may include counting the number of users by age group for facility 2. The counting process performed by the counting processing unit 43 may include counting the number of users by occupation for facility 2. The counting processing unit 43 can count the number of users by gender, age group, and occupation group by determining the number of people who have used facility 2 from the facility-related information and determining the attributes of the users from the user attribute information linked to the facility usage information. These counts may be performed on an hourly or daily basis. These counts may also be performed on an area, building, or floor basis.

[0041] As another example, the aggregation processing performed by the aggregation processing unit 43 may include aggregating the flow of people within a floor. The aggregation processing performed by the aggregation processing unit 43 may include aggregating the flow of people between floors. The aggregation processing performed by the aggregation processing unit 43 may include aggregating the flow of people between buildings. The aggregation processing performed by the aggregation processing unit 43 may include aggregating the flow of people between areas. The aggregation processing unit 43 may aggregate at least one of the gender ratio, age ratio, and occupation ratio of these flow of people. The aggregation processing unit 43 can aggregate the flow of people by identifying multiple pieces of equipment 2 used from the equipment usage information and identifying the locations of these pieces of equipment 2 from the equipment-related information. Furthermore, the aggregation processing unit 43 can aggregate each of the above ratios by identifying user attributes from user attribute information linked to the equipment usage information. These aggregations may be performed on an hourly or daily basis.

[0042] The server 4 determines whether or not analysis conditions have been input (S202). The analysis conditions are input from the input unit 44. If the analysis conditions have been input from the input unit 44, a Yes determination is made in S202. If a Yes determination is made in S202, the analysis processing unit 45 performs analysis processing according to the analysis conditions input from the input unit 44, based on the results of the aggregation processing performed by the aggregation processing unit 43 (S203). The output unit 46 outputs the results of the analysis processing performed by the analysis processing unit 45 (S204).

[0043] The analysis conditions may be input from the input unit 44 in any manner. The analysis conditions may be input manually from the input unit 44. Analysis conditions according to the current situation may also be input automatically from the input unit 44. For example, as the analysis conditions, information indicating the current date and time may be automatically input from the clock function of the server 4, and information indicating the location where the advertisement will be performed may be input manually.

[0044] As an example, the analysis processing unit 45 performs processing to analyze advertisements suitable for locations that are visible to people using the equipment 2. That is, the analysis processing unit 45 performs processing to analyze what kind of advertisement would be optimal or effective for the advertiser in that location. The output unit 46 may output, as a result of the analysis processing, a signal for displaying an advertisement in that location according to the result of the analysis processing performed by the analysis processing unit 45.

[0045] For example, analysis conditions related to the attributes of a certain facility 2 are input from the input unit 44. Information indicating a building in which a certain elevator is installed may also be input as analysis conditions from the input unit 44. In this case, if the analysis result obtained from the aggregation processing unit 43 indicates that there are many businessmen in the building, the analysis processing unit 45 determines that it would be effective to display "business-related advertisements" in the elevator car. The output unit 46 may output a signal to the elevator control device to display the business-related advertisements on a display in the elevator car. Furthermore, if the analysis result obtained from the aggregation processing unit 43 indicates that there are many women in their twenties in the building, the analysis processing unit 45 determines that it would be effective to display "beauty-related advertisements" in the elevator car. The output unit 46 may output a signal to the elevator control device to display an advertisement for a cosmetics manufacturer on a display in the elevator car.

[0046] As another example, analysis conditions related to the attributes of people using a certain facility 2 may be input from the input unit 44. Information indicating the gender of people riding in an elevator car may be input in real time from the input unit 44 as an analysis condition. For example, consider a case where the people riding in the car are male. In this case, if the analysis results obtained from the aggregation processing unit 43 indicate that men riding in the car often head to a fitness club, the analysis processing unit 45 determines that it would be effective to display "health-related advertisements" in the car. The output unit 46 may output a signal to the elevator control device to display an advertisement for supplements on a display in the elevator car. If there are multiple people riding in the elevator car, analysis conditions based on the attribute with the highest ratio may be input from the input unit 44.

[0047] The analytical processing function of the analytical processing unit 45 is preferably configured to be able to obtain the following results. People who work in IT-related jobs tend to use Elevator A more frequently between 10am and 10am. The custom elevator installed in Building B has the highest passenger numbers between 8:00 and 11:00 AM. Area C has many large custom-made elevators, and these elevators are most frequently used between 8:00 and 10:00 AM, with many users in their 30s and 40s. The buildings in Area D have 250 displays capable of displaying advertisements.

[0048] In the example shown in this embodiment, information from facility 2 and terminal 3 can be effectively utilized in information system 1, which uses terminal 3 to utilize facility 2. For example, when advertising in a specific building, it is necessary to know what kind of people are in the building, but conducting such a survey manually would require a great deal of effort and expense. With information system 1, information from facility 2 and terminal 3 can be effectively utilized for analyzing advertising. This makes it possible to provide appropriate advertisements in appropriate locations with less effort and expense.

[0049] For example, the information system 1 according to the present embodiment can also meet the following requests from advertisers. · How many elevator displays in area E are available for advertising? -What is the most effective time to advertise on the elevator F display? In which building should we advertise cosmetics aimed at young women? I want to promote suits for men in their 30s and 40s. Which building should I advertise in?

[0050] In the present embodiment, an example has been mainly described in which the output destination of the output unit 46 is a device that actually performs advertising. As another example, the output destination of the output unit 46 may be an advertiser. The output destination of the output unit 46 may be an advertising agency. The output destination of the output unit 46 may be a public relations department of a company. The output destination of the output unit 46 is not limited to these examples.

[0051] The server 4 may manage information about people who have the authority to use the facility 2. In such a case, the server 4 further includes an authority granting unit 47. The authority granting unit 47 has a function of granting the authority to use the facility 2 to the terminal 3. The user attribute information may include information indicating whether or not the user has the authority to use the facility 2.

[0052] In the present embodiment, an example has been described in which the output unit 46 outputs the results of analysis performed by the analysis processing unit 45. As another example, the input unit 44 and the analysis processing unit 45 may be provided in a device other than the server 4. The input unit 44 and the analysis processing unit 45 may be provided in the output destination. In such a case, the output unit 46 outputs the results of aggregation performed by the aggregation processing unit 43.

[0053] 4 is a diagram showing an example of hardware resources of the server 4. The server 4 includes, as hardware resources, a processing circuit 50 including a processor 51 and a memory 52. ​​The processing circuit 50 may include multiple processors 51. The processing circuit 50 may include multiple memories 52.

[0054] In this embodiment, the units denoted by reference numerals 41 to 47 represent functions possessed by the server 4. The function of the storage unit 41 is realized by a memory 52. ​​The functions of the units denoted by reference numerals 42 to 47 can be realized by software written as a program, firmware, or a combination of software and firmware. The program is stored in the memory 52. ​​The server 4 realizes the functions of the units denoted by reference numerals 42 to 47 by executing the program stored in the memory 52 using a processor 51 (computer).

[0055] The processor 51 is also called a CPU (Central Processing Unit), central processing unit, processing unit, arithmetic unit, microprocessor, microcomputer, or DSP. The memory 52 may be a semiconductor memory, a magnetic disk, a flexible disk, an optical disk, a compact disk, a minidisk, or a DVD. Usable semiconductor memories include RAM, ROM, flash memory, EPROM, and EEPROM.

[0056] Fig. 5 is a diagram showing another example of hardware resources of the server 4. In the example shown in Fig. 5, the server 4 includes a processing circuit 50 including a processor 51, a memory 52, and dedicated hardware 53. Fig. 5 shows an example in which some of the functions of the server 4 are realized by the dedicated hardware 53. All of the functions of the server 4 may also be realized by the dedicated hardware 53. The dedicated hardware 53 may be a single circuit, a composite circuit, a programmed processor, a parallel programmed processor, an ASIC, an FPGA, or a combination thereof.

[0057] The hardware resources of the facility 2 and the terminal 3 are similar to those shown in FIG. 4 or 5. For example, the facility 2 includes a processing circuit including a processor and memory as its hardware resources. The facility 2 realizes the functions of each unit by executing a program stored in the memory using the processor (computer). The facility 2 may also include a processing circuit including a processor, memory, and dedicated hardware as its hardware resources. In other words, some or all of the functions of the facility 2 may be realized by dedicated hardware. The same applies to the terminal 3. [Industrial Applicability]
