  DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention (hereinafter referred to as embodiments) will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the subsequent drawings, the same numbers or symbols are assigned to the same elements throughout the description of the embodiments. In the functional configuration diagram, an arrow between functional blocks represents a data flow direction or a process flow direction.

  FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating the concept of an exercise opportunity. In a super-aging society, the decline in physical function is an urgent issue to be addressed. However, as opportunities for exercise have evolved to a high degree and are diverse, the disparity has widened: “Some people do, some do not.” Each person has the amount of exercise necessary to maintain their health, and those who exercise more than that can maintain their physical functions, but those who do not tend to suffer from physical function deterioration and lifestyle-related diseases.

  Exercise opportunities can be divided into several areas. For example, in the exercise area of fitness clubs and gyms (hereinafter simply referred to as fitness), there are machine training such as walking machines (running machines) and fitness bikes, and in the leisure / sports area, light loads such as golf. There are also high-load exercises like road bikes and marathons. In daily activities, walking (including walking due to train movement) and bicycle movement are the main exercises.

  The movement of each region has its own characteristics. FIG. 2 summarizes problems in daily activities, leisure / sports, and fitness. As shown in the figure, in daily activities, walking, trains, and bicycles (including shared bicycles) are the main exercises, but there are other household tasks such as cleaning, washing, and cooking. The exercise of daily activities has the advantage that it is continuous and does not require special time, but the effect varies, and the link between the measurement of the momentum and the momentum in other areas becomes an issue. In addition, scrutiny of motivation and materialization of incentives are also issues.

  In the fitness area, for example, dance, stretching, yoga, etc. can be considered, focusing on machine training. The fitness area has high exercise effects and is easy to quantify, but there are variations in continuity and entertainment. In order to have continuity, not only the effects of exercise, but also the elements of the community such as the elements that make it fun to exercise (game elements) and the feeling of making friends and touching people are important. However, the training of the machine opponent is not entertaining and it is difficult to form a community. Therefore, recreation and ingenuity for community formation are issues for ensuring continuity.

  In the area of leisure / sports, for example, marathon, road bike, golf, jogging, hiking, trekking, mountain climbing, etc. can be considered. In the leisure / sports area, there are advantages such as the expectation of exercise effects to some extent, and excellent recreation and community formation. However, it is necessary to secure a special time for doing so, as in daily activities. The link between the measurement of momentum and the momentum in other areas is an issue. In addition, securing continuity and enhancing short-time experience are also issues. Therefore, it is desirable that fitness training that is easy to quantify can be quantified with a common index and comprehensively managed and evaluated, including leisure / sports and daily activities.

(System image)
FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a basic image of a health management system (hereinafter, this system) according to an embodiment of the present invention. The purpose of this system is to comprehensively calculate exercise and to accurately grasp the amount of exercise by quantifying and combining daily activities and fitness activities.

  The area of leisure / sports includes those close to daily activities and those close to fitness activities, but here, those included in either are targeted. For example, a person who has a habit of jogging has a range of daily activities, but a jogging of a person who only occasionally does not contribute to health, so it is not a daily activity and has a training element. For this reason, leisure / sports have intermediate characteristics between daily activities and fitness, but are automatically included in either of them depending on the occasion. The same goes for marathons, road bikes, golf and hiking. The exercises in leisure / sports are not necessarily performed on a daily basis, but supplement the exercises of daily activities and fitness. For example, if it is scheduled to participate in a marathon on the weekend, the fitness exercise amount of the day before and after that is usually adjusted to be smaller than usual.

  Fitness exercises are mainly performed indoors (indoors), but exercises for leisure / sports and daily activities are often performed outdoors (outdoors). Since this system is targeted regardless of whether it is indoors or outdoors, it can be said that it is a system that recommends exercises for health management with a so-called “double door” in the sense of integrating the two.

  As shown in FIG. 3, examples of data input hardware in daily activities include smartphones (including applications), ultra-small devices worn on the human body, such as heart rate, body temperature, blood pressure, sweating, etc. Various wearable devices that can measure data, sensors mounted on bicycles (including common bicycles) that measure mileage and acceleration, passing gates such as automatic ticket gates and ETC gates at stations, and passing positions by touching And a transportation infrastructure system (abbreviated transportation infrastructure) consisting of an IC card that can grasp the passage time.

  Examples of data input hardware in a fitness club include training machines such as walking machines and fitness bikes, various wearable devices, indoor sensors that measure the temperature and humidity in the club, and the like.

  A user (user) of this system first sets his / her target exercise amount (calorie consumption) and inputs it to the system. Target values can be set automatically by entering age, weight, height, gender, commuting time, commuting distance, work type, work volume, and other profile data, but advice from fitness club trainers etc. You may set it. The calorie consumption of the set target value is recorded in the system together with the set date and update date.

  When the target value is set, the data is automatically transmitted from the various daily activity and fitness data input hardware to the system and recorded in the system server via the system exercise amount acquisition means. The system calculates a satisfaction rate for the target value of the current amount of exercise for each user from the acquired amount of exercise and the accumulated amount of exercise. The sufficiency rate is calculated and recorded on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis.

  If the satisfaction rate is within a predetermined range, the system determines that the satisfaction rate is OK and ends the process. If the satisfaction rate is out of the predetermined range, the system presents a menu of recommended activities. The presentation of recommended activities will be explained in detail in the following figure, but activities that can be continued without difficulty other than activities that achieve the goal are also presented. When the user selects a specific activity from the presented activity menu, the selected activity is stored along with the selected date and time. Then, the exercise amount data is updated every predetermined period, and the change is presented.

  By doing in this way, when the necessary amount of exercise is not satisfied according to the target value, an activity that can be continued without difficulty can be recommended. Moreover, according to this system, it accumulates not only in each area | region of an exercise | movement, but the quantity suitable for an individual is shown. In this way, the system can recommend activities that can be continued without difficulty if the required amount of exercise is not met according to the target value, and in some cases can be encouraged to adjust the target value. . That is, based on the METS (exercise intensity index), it is possible to present an appropriate amount of exercise and course according to the amount of activity of the day. The appropriate amount of exercise and course here is, for example, when going to work, going down in front of three stations and riding a bicycle, or walking for one station without taking a train, and by personal feedback, community, support, etc. The recommended menu can be evolved. As a result, appropriate exercises and unreasonable exercises are differentiated and recommended courses are accumulated, and sustainability can be enhanced by meeting friends and friends. In particular, by quantifying and combining fitness activities and daily activities, it is possible to comprehensively calculate the amount of exercise and correctly grasp the amount of exercise. In addition, only if the necessary exercises are not met according to the purpose setting, activities that can be continued without difficulty can be recommended and encouraged to adjust the goal achievement.

(First embodiment)
FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a functional configuration of the data management server of the health management system according to the first embodiment of the present invention. In the first embodiment of the present system, with the data management server 100 as the center, the data input device 10 includes a user terminal 200 such as a smartphone carried by the user, a bicycle in-vehicle sensor 211, a traffic infrastructure system 212, and various wearable devices. 213, the training machine sensor 214, and the indoor sensor 215 are configured to be connectable via a network. The data input device 10 is mainly divided into a data input device 11 for daily activities and a data input device 12 for fitness activities, but there are devices that can be used for data input in either area, such as a wearable device 213. When the user terminal 200 is a smartphone, the smartphone itself can be used as a data input device by a sensor built in the smartphone.

  The data management server 100 includes a third party terminal 300 that is a third party terminal such as another user, a user's friend or family, and / or an advisor terminal 310 that is an advisor terminal such as a fitness club trainer. You may make it connect with. The advisor terminal 310 may be considered to be included in the third party terminal 300.

  Next, a functional configuration of the data management server 100 (hereinafter simply referred to as a server) in the first embodiment will be described. The server typically has a target exercise amount setting unit 101, a user information DB 102, an exercise amount acquisition unit 103, a schedule information acquisition unit 102A, a recommended activity presentation unit 104, a recommended activity generation unit 105, a recommended activity update unit 105A, and a recommended activity DB 106. , Activity history DB 107, similar user data acquisition means 108, statistical data aggregation means 109, and evaluation means 110. However, it is not limited to such a configuration.

  The target exercise amount setting unit 101 has a function of causing the user to perform target setting of calorie consumption from the user terminal 200. At this time, as described above, the target value of calorie consumption can be automatically calculated by inputting the user's body data and profile data. Also, it has a function of receiving advice from a fitness club trainer or the like from the advisor terminal 310 and allowing the user to adjust the target value. This is effective when performed after the transition movement is executed.

  The user information DB 102 stores user's body data (age, weight, height, sex, etc.), commuting time, commuting distance, work contents, working time, life pattern, hobby, family, friends, and other profile data for each user. Store. Further, the target value set by the user is stored in the user information DB 102 together with the set date and update date.

  The schedule information acquisition unit 102A acquires the schedule information input by the user from the user terminal 200. Here, the schedule information includes a schedule for training such as a fitness club regularly performed by the user, a schedule for irregular leisure such as travel and golf, and a schedule for irregular sport activities such as road bike and marathon. The schedule information may be input in characters, but it is desirable to provide means for displaying the calendar on the user terminal 200 and simply inputting icons representing various activities on the calendar. The input schedule information is stored in the user information DB 102.

  The exercise amount acquisition means 103 acquires data such as movement means (walking, running, bicycle, train, car), movement distance, movement speed, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, etc. from the user terminal 200 and other data input devices 10. It has a function. When the user terminal 200 is a smartphone, a GPS (position information acquisition means), a pedometer, an acceleration sensor, and other various sensors are provided inside the smartphone, so that the amount of exercise can also be acquired from the user terminal 200.

  The recommended activity presentation unit 104 extracts an activity suitable for the user from a recommended activity DB 106 described later, and transmits the activity to the user terminal 200 at a timing effective for the user and presents it to the user. The recommended activity presentation unit 104 refers to the various activity data acquired by the user information DB 102 and the exercise amount acquisition unit 103 and presents the external environment information providing system 400 in order to present appropriate activity content to the user at an effective timing. To obtain external environmental information such as weather and temperature. For example, if it is recommended to exercise indoors on a rainy day or a hot day, or if the current calorie consumption is already high and it can be estimated that the user is tired, exercise that is not unreasonable (relatively light load) Or recommend.

  If the user's schedule information can be acquired by the above-described schedule information acquisition unit 102A, the recommended activity presentation unit 104 determines the content of the schedule information and determines the timing of presenting the recommended activity. It can be set before and after. As one of the methods, when it is determined from the user's activity history that the normal average exercise amount during the predetermined period has increased or decreased, the recommended activity may be presented at a timing after a predetermined time from that point. . For example, if it can be determined that there was little activity because it was a trip last weekend, present a message of recommended activities such as “Let's increase distance and time this week by 15%”. For example, the target is set to increase by 15%. That is, the recommended activity presentation unit 104 may present the recommended activity after a predetermined time from the time point when it is determined that the normal average exercise amount has increased or decreased during the predetermined period based on the user's activity results.

  As another method, when it is determined from the user's activity history that there is a plan that the amount of exercise expected during the period after the lapse of a predetermined time is expected to increase or decrease with respect to the average amount of exercise, the amount of activity increases or decreases. The recommended activity may be presented at times before and after the period. For example, if it is determined that you are planning to participate in a marathon the day after tomorrow, you may present a message of recommended activities such as “Let's make it the usual 70% of the time or distance today tomorrow.” Good. That is, when it is determined that the recommended amount of exercise is scheduled to increase or decrease in the average amount of exercise during the period after the predetermined period based on the user's schedule information, the recommended activity presentation unit 104 Recommended activities may be presented at times before and after the period.

  Further, when the user selects the presented activity, the recommended activity presentation unit 104 records the activity ID in the activity history DB 107 together with the date and time when the activity is selected, and is used for presenting the recommended activity thereafter. A specific example of the recommended activity will be described later with reference to FIG.

  The recommended activity generation unit 105 generates activity contents suitable for the user. The generated activity content is assigned an activity ID, is distinguished from other activities, and is registered in the recommended activity DB 106 for each user. The list of recommended activities may be created manually by a trainer or the like from the advisor terminal 310 while referring to the user's data, but a template activity list is automatically generated from the user's body data or profile data, and then the trainer May adjust its activity list to suit the user.

  The recommended activity updating unit 105A has a function of updating the recommended activity once generated by the recommended activity generating unit 105 based on the activity results of the user. Recommended activities may be generated based on examples of others with similar physical information. However, for example, when jogging or riding a bicycle, the calorie consumption differs between a course with a slope and a flat course. For this reason, the jogging performed in the environment (course) of another person and the jogging performed in the environment of the course that can be usually used are different at the same time and distance. In preparation for such a case, when there is no user activity record, recommended activities based on the other person's record are presented, and when the activity record is accumulated, the amount of exercise expected by the activity is updated. You may be made to do. That is, the recommended activity presenting means 104 presents a recommended activity based on the performance of similar users when the user has no activity performance, and at the stage where his / her activity performance has been accumulated, Based on this, recommended activities may be presented.

  The recommended activity DB 106 is a database that stores messages of recommended activities prepared in advance for various possible scenarios. More specifically, it is a database in which activity contents, consumption time, consumed calories, and recommended timing of activities identified by activity IDs are stored for each user. FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of a data configuration stored in the recommended activity DB 106. For example, the activity identified by the activity ID 001 is a normal commuting section train movement and accompanying walking activity, and the activity ID 002 identified by the activity ID 002 is an ordinary train moving and accompanying walking and gym training (in the gym). Training) and accompanying walking movement. Further, the activity identified by the activity ID 003 is an activity when the walking time is extended by getting off at the station one station before, instead of the normal train movement. Further, the activity identified by the activity ID 004 is not a normal train movement, but an activity when a part of the section is driven by a bicycle. There are many activities stored in this database due to such small differences in routes.

  Needless to say, calorie consumption varies from person to person even in the same activity. The recommended timing is defined in advance based on the user's physical data, profile data, external environment information such as weather, and the user's current activity data, and when the activity is recommended to be recommended. is there. In this example, the activity of ID001 is the smallest calorie consumption, but when the weather is bad (when it is not suitable for outdoor exercise), when the return time is late (when there is not enough time), there are many activities on the day. It is set to be recommended when you are tired. On the other hand, activities with ID002 are recommended when the time to go home is early (when you have enough time), when the weather is bad (when indoor exercise is suitable), or when there is little activity (when you are not tired) Is set to be. Similarly, effective scenes are set for other activities. The recommended timing may be created in advance by a human hand, or may be automatically or semi-automatically generated from the user's body data, profile data, and past data.

  Returning to FIG. 4, the activity history DB 107 is a database that holds a record of actual user activities. The activity history DB 107 stores the activity date and time (time zone), the number of steps, the walking distance, the walking speed, the bicycle moving distance, the moving speed, the calorie consumption of each activity, and the like for each user.

  The similar user data acquisition unit 108 has a function of extracting similar users whose body data and profile are relatively close to the user from the user information DB 102, acquiring similar user data, and comparing and displaying the similar user data. Further, the similar user data acquisition unit 108 may include a unit that enables communication such as exchanging messages about health with similar users.

  The statistical data totaling unit 109 has a function of analyzing the data of all users stored in the activity history DB 107 and totaling statistical data. The aggregated statistical data is disclosed to the user and used when the user's activity evaluation or a trainer advises.

  The evaluation unit 110 evaluates the user's activity according to the satisfaction rate of the user's activity history stored in the activity history DB 107 and the evaluation information from the outside, and provides privilege points, stories in which stories are presented step by step, punishment Provide games etc. to users. The higher the evaluation, the more privilege points can be acquired, and the user terminal 200 can read ahead of the story of the electronic book. Conversely, if the evaluation is low, a corresponding punishment game can be executed. By providing such an evaluation means, it is possible to give feedback and incentives to the user, and it is possible to enhance the continuity of exercise by providing entertainment and game characteristics.

  As described above, the functional configuration of the present system is merely an example, and one functional block (database and functional processing unit) may be divided or a plurality of functional blocks may be configured as one functional block. Good. Each function processing unit reads a computer program stored in a storage device such as a ROM (Read Only Memory), flash memory, SSD (Solid State Drive), or hard disk by a CPU (Central Processing Unit) built in the device. This is realized by a computer program executed by the CPU. That is, in each function processing unit, this computer program reads and writes necessary data such as a table from a database (DB; Data Base) stored in a storage device or a storage area on a memory, and may be related in some cases. This is realized by controlling hardware (for example, an input / output device, a display device, and a communication interface device). Further, the database (DB) in the embodiment of the present invention may be a commercial database, but it simply means a collection of tables and files, and the internal structure of the database itself is not questioned.

(Processing flow)
Hereinafter, the processing of this system will be described in more detail. In the subsequent processing flow diagrams (flowcharts), the processing order of each step may be changed as long as the relationship between the input and output of each step is not impaired.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of a recommended activity presentation processing flow. This processing is mainly performed by the above-described recommended activity presentation unit 104 (hereinafter referred to as presentation unit). First, a presentation means acquires the setting target value and user data (body data, profile data) of the said user from user information DB102 (step S10). Next, the current exercise amount (calorie consumption) of daily activities and fitness activities is calculated. Then, a sufficiency rate for the target value of the current momentum is calculated (step S12).

  If the sufficiency rate is within a predetermined range, it is determined that the sufficiency rate is OK (step S13: Y), and the process ends. If the sufficiency rate is outside the predetermined range, it is determined that the sufficiency rate is NG (step S13: N), and the presenting means determines the present state from the recommended activity DB 106 according to the insufficient exercise amount and the current weather / time / activity amount. The recommended activity suitable for is extracted (step S14). Then, one or more extracted recommended activities are presented to the user (step S15).

  When the user selects one or more of the presented recommended activities (step S16: Y), the selected recommended activities are recorded in the activity history DB 107 together with the selected date and time (step S17). Here, a plurality of recommended activities may be selected as long as the activity times do not overlap. Although it is impossible to grasp whether or not the user has actually performed the selected activity, a part of the activity can be grasped from the data input device 10. For example, if a user who normally does not ride a bicycle can actually acquire data from the on-board sensor of the bicycle immediately after selecting a bicycle run, it can be inferred that the user has performed the selected activity. In addition, immediately after the user selects the detour travel route, it can be inferred from the travel history data from the traffic infrastructure system 212 that the user actually performed the recommended detour travel.

  FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of a recommended activity generation process flow. As already described, the recommended activity can be automatically or semi-automatically generated by the recommended activity generating unit 105 (hereinafter simply referred to as a generating unit). First, the generation unit acquires user data (body data, profile data) from the user information DB 102 (step S20). Next, the exercise time and exercise amount of daily activities are calculated from the user data (step S21). Similarly, the required time and the amount of exercise for each predetermined fitness activity (walking (running) machine, fitness bike, etc.) are calculated (step S22).

  Next, the generation means lists the time required for each activity and the amount of exercise as activity items and stores them in the recommended activity DB 106 (step S23). Here, since the activity to be recommended to the user changes with time and time, the recommended activity DB 106 is periodically updated (step S24).

  In addition, the generation means can evaluate evaluation information of other users, friends, family, trainers and advisors regarding the activity item list (for example, “This route is recommended for nature”, “ ”,“ This training machine is game-friendly and fun ”,“ This dance can make friends with many people ”, etc., and if there is evaluation information related to the activity item (Step S25: Y), the evaluation information is added to the activity history DB 107 (Step S26).

  By doing so, it is possible to acquire information on the advantages and disadvantages of each activity item and to select an activity that is truly suitable for the user. Note that the recommended activity generation method mentioned here is only an example, and various recommended activity generation methods such as referring to the activity history of other users, particularly similar users, are conceivable.

(Screen example)
FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of a recommended activity presentation screen. The recommended activity presentation screen 500 illustrated is assumed to be a screen that is displayed when the user starts a dedicated application on the smartphone.
