DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An information processing apparatus and an information processing method according to the present invention will be described below using embodiments. Note that in the following embodiments, components and steps denoted by the same reference numerals are the same or equivalent, and a repeated explanation may be omitted. The information processing device according to the present embodiment acquires receipt summary information regarding the total amount of each nutrient related to the purchase object corresponding to the receipt information.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an information processing system 100 according to this embodiment. An information processing system 100 according to the present embodiment includes an information processing device 1 and a plurality of information processing terminals 2 that are communicably connected via a wired or wireless communication line 500. The communication line 500 may be, for example, the Internet, an intranet, a public telephone network, or the like. Although FIG. 1 shows a case where the information processing system 100 includes three information processing terminals 2, the information processing system 100 may include one, two, or four or more information processing terminals. It may have 2.

As shown in FIG. 1, the information processing device 1 according to the present embodiment includes a storage section 11, a reception section 12, an acquisition section 13, and an output section 14. Note that in this embodiment, the case where the information processing device 1 is a server device in a server/client system will be mainly described, but the information processing device 1 may be a stand-alone device. If the information processing device 1 is a stand-alone device, it may directly accept input from the user or may directly present information to the user.

The storage unit 11 may store a plurality of pieces of nutrient correspondence information, a plurality of pieces of allergy correspondence information, or other information. In this embodiment, a case will be mainly described in which the information processing apparatus 1 can access the nutrient correspondence information etc. stored in the storage unit 11 of the own apparatus; Among other information stored in the storage unit 11, any one or more pieces of information may be stored in a device other than the information processing device 1. Even in this case, it is preferable that the information processing device 1 be able to access information stored in a device other than the information processing device 1.

The nutrient correspondence information is information that associates a purchase object identifier that identifies a purchase object related to food and drink with nutrient information regarding the amount of nutrients of the purchase object. The object to be purchased may be, for example, a tangible object or an intangible object. The purchase target, which is a tangible object, may be, for example, a product such as food ingredients or daily necessities. The purchase object, which is an intangible object, may be a service (service) such as provision of food and drink or accommodation. The purchase object related to food and drink may be, for example, a purchase object that is a food or drink object, such as ingredients or food, or may be the provision of food and drink. In this embodiment, the case where the purchase target is food ingredients will be mainly explained.

The purchase object identifier may be, for example, a JAN code or another identification code of the purchase object. Note that the JAN code, which is the purchase object identifier, may be a JAN code with source marking. On the other hand, with respect to in-store marked JAN codes, there is a possibility that the same JAN code is used for different purchases by different retailers. Therefore, the purchase object identifier may include, for example, a JAN code that has been marked in-store and a retail identifier that identifies the retail business operator that has performed the in-store marking.

The nutrient information may include, for example, the amount of heat (calories) or the amount of each nutrient. The nutrients may be, for example, proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids, and may further include one or more of salt equivalents, minerals, vitamins, cholesterol, and dietary fiber. Note that in the food field, it is common for nutritional components to include calorific value, so in the following explanation as well, it may be considered that calorific value is included in the amount of nutrients. The nutrient information may be information indicating the amount of each nutrient contained in a unit amount (for example, one item) to be purchased. Note that the nutrient information corresponding to a purchase item whose quantity is not particularly determined, such as bananas or spinach, may be, for example, nutrient information corresponding to a purchase item whose quantity is not particularly determined.

The allergy response information is information that associates a purchase object identifier that identifies a purchase object related to food and drink with allergy information regarding the presence or absence of allergens in the purchase object. The allergy information may be, for example, information indicating the presence or absence of each allergen (for example, information indicating the name of the allergen contained in the item to be purchased), or information indicating the amount of the allergen. Even in the latter case, it is possible to know the presence or absence of allergic substances. In this embodiment, the former case will mainly be explained. Allergens are substances that cause food allergies, and in this embodiment, we will mainly explain the case of seven items: eggs, milk, wheat, shrimp, crab, peanuts, and buckwheat. The number of items may be 27 items, including 27 items, etc., or may be any other number of items.

The storage unit 11 may store received receipt information, acquired receipt total information, and the like. For example, such information may be stored in association with a user identifier that identifies the user. Moreover, the process by which information is stored in the storage unit 11 does not matter. For example, information may be stored in the storage unit 11 via a recording medium, information transmitted via a communication line or the like may be stored in the storage unit 11, or, Information input via an input device may be stored in the storage unit 11. The storage unit 11 is preferably implemented by a nonvolatile recording medium, but may also be implemented by a volatile recording medium. The recording medium may be, for example, a semiconductor memory or a magnetic disk.

The reception unit 12 receives receipt information. The receipt information includes one or more purchase object information including a purchase object identifier that identifies the purchase object, the number of purchased objects, and the amount of the purchase object, and a purchase related to the one or more purchase object information. The information may include the date, month, and day. The receipt information may further include, for example, the total amount of the purchase, a store identifier identifying the store where the purchase was made, and the retailer operating the store. It may also include a retail identifier that identifies the business operator. The amount of money to be purchased may be, for example, the amount per item to be purchased, or the amount depending on the number of items to be purchased. The purchase object information may further include, for example, an image of the purchase object or a name of the purchase object.

The receipt information may be, for example, an electronic receipt. Further, the receipt information may be information that can be obtained using a code displayed on a paper receipt, for example. The code displayed on the paper receipt may be, for example, a barcode, a two-dimensional code, or some other code. The two-dimensional code may be, for example, a QR code (registered trademark) or another two-dimensional code. In this case, receipt information corresponding to the paper receipt may be managed in association with a code identifier that identifies the code displayed on the paper receipt. This receipt information may be managed, for example, by a management server that manages receipt information. For example, upon receiving receipt information and a code identifier for identifying a code transmitted from a cash register terminal such as a POS cash register terminal, the management server may associate the two and store them in the storage unit. Then, upon receiving a code identifier that identifies the code displayed on the paper receipt, the management server may read and transmit receipt information corresponding to the received code identifier. Here, for example, information obtained by reading a code displayed on a paper receipt may be a code identifier, and information linked to information obtained by reading a code displayed on a paper receipt. may be a code identifier.

As an example, the receiving unit 12 may receive the receipt information itself from the user, or may receive from the user a code identifier that identifies the code displayed on the paper receipt, and the receiving unit 12 may receive the code identifier that identifies the code displayed on the paper receipt, and the receiving unit 12 may receive the code identifier that is associated with the code identifier received from the user. Receipt information may be received from the management server. In either case, one piece of receipt information usually corresponds to one receipt. The reception unit 12 may also accept a user identifier that identifies the user corresponding to the receipt information. The user corresponding to the receipt information may be, for example, a user who purchased the purchase object identified by the purchase object identifier included in the receipt information. When accepting receipt information and a user identifier corresponding to the receipt information, the accepting unit 12 may accept both at the same time or at different timings. In the latter case, for example, a user identifier may be accepted at the time of login, and then receipt information corresponding to the user identifier may be accepted.

The reception unit 12 may store the received information in the storage unit 11. For example, the reception unit 12 may store the received receipt information in the storage unit 11. Further, for example, when receiving receipt information and a user identifier corresponding thereto, the receiving unit 12 may store the receipt information in the storage unit 11 in association with the user identifier.

For example, the reception unit 12 may receive information input from an input device (for example, a keyboard, mouse, touch panel, etc.), or may receive information transmitted via a wired or wireless communication line. Information read from a predetermined recording medium (for example, an optical disk, a magnetic disk, a semiconductor memory, etc.) may be accepted. Note that in this embodiment, a case where the reception unit 12 receives information will mainly be described. Further, the receiving unit 12 may or may not include a device for receiving data (for example, a modem, a network card, etc.). Further, the reception unit 12 may be realized by hardware or by software such as a driver that drives a predetermined device.

The acquisition unit 13 uses the nutrient information corresponding to the purchase object identifier included in the receipt information received by the reception unit 12 to acquire receipt tally information regarding the total amount of each nutrient corresponding to the receipt information. The information regarding the total amount of each nutrient may be, for example, the total amount of each nutrient. In this case, for example, the total amount of each nutrient to be purchased related to the food and drink identified by the purchase object identifier included in the receipt information, such as the total amount of heat, total amount of protein, etc., may be obtained. become. Further, the information regarding the total amount of each nutrient may be, for example, the ratio of the total amount to the index amount per unit period for each nutrient. The unit period may be, for example, one day, one week, or one month. The index amount per unit period may be, for example, a required amount per unit period, a target amount per unit period, or the like. Therefore, the ratio of the total amount to the index amount per unit period for each nutrient may be, for example, the ratio of the total amount to the daily target amount for each nutrient. This ratio may be, for example, a value obtained by dividing the total amount of a certain nutrient corresponding to the receipt information by the daily target amount of that nutrient. In this way, the receipt tally information may be information including, for example, at least one of the total amount of each nutrient and the ratio of the total amount to the index amount per unit period for each nutrient.

In addition, when calculating the above-mentioned ratio, the acquisition unit 13 may use, for example, an index amount corresponding to the attribute of the user identified by the user identifier. The attribute may be, for example, gender or age. In this case, for example, in the storage unit 11, a plurality of user correspondence information that associates a user identifier that identifies a user with an attribute of the user, an attribute of the user, and an index amount per unit period corresponding to the attribute are stored. A plurality of index amount correspondence information is stored, and the acquisition unit 13 identifies the user attribute associated with the user identifier corresponding to the receipt information, and associates the information with the identified user attribute. The above ratio may be calculated using the index amount per unit period.

For example, the acquisition unit 13 may acquire the receipt tally information as follows. The acquisition unit 13 first acquires one or more pairs of a purchase object identifier and a purchase quantity from the receipt information received by the reception unit 12. Next, the acquisition unit 13 accesses the nutrient correspondence information, acquires the nutrient information corresponding to the purchase target identifier included in the acquired first set, and adds 1 to the amount of each nutrient included in the nutrient information. The result of multiplying by the number of purchased items included in the th set is obtained as the total amount of each nutrient. For example, for each nutrient such as calorie, protein, and carbohydrate, the total amount is obtained by multiplying the amount of the nutrient by the number of purchased items. Note that if the purchase object identified by the purchase object identifier included in the first set is not a purchase object related to food and drink, this process is skipped because there is no nutrient information corresponding to the purchase object identifier. may be done. The same applies to the purchase object identifiers included in the second and subsequent sets. Next, the acquisition unit 13 accesses the nutrient correspondence information, acquires the nutrient information corresponding to the purchase target identifier included in the acquired second set, and adds 2 to the amount of each nutrient included in the nutrient information. The result of multiplying by the number of purchased items included in the th set is added to the total amount of each nutrient. This addition shall be made for each nutrient. The acquisition unit 13 performs similar processing for all the acquired sets from the third onwards. In this way, a final total amount will be obtained for each nutrient, eg, calories, proteins, carbohydrates, etc. This final total amount becomes the total amount of each nutrient corresponding to the receipt information. That is, this final total amount becomes the total amount of each nutrient of all purchase targets related to the food and drink purchased according to the receipt information. In other words, the total amount of a certain nutrient is the sum of the values obtained by multiplying the amount of the nutrient corresponding to the purchase object identifier included in the receipt information by the purchased number of the purchase object identified by the purchase object identifier. This sum is calculated for all purchase object identifiers included in the receipt information. Note that when the amount of a nutrient corresponding to a certain purchase object identifier does not exist, for example, when the purchase object identified by the purchase object identifier is not a food or the like, the amount of the nutrient may be calculated as 0.

Note that if the receipt aggregation information includes the ratio of the total amount to the index amount per unit period for each nutrient, the acquisition unit 13 calculates the total amount of nutrients for each of the plurality of nutrients per unit period. The percentage for each nutrient may be obtained by dividing by the index amount of .

Further, the acquisition unit 13 may use the allergy information corresponding to the purchase object identifier included in the receipt information received by the reception unit 12 to acquire information regarding the presence or absence of an allergenic substance corresponding to the receipt information. The information regarding the presence or absence of allergens may be, for example, information indicating allergens contained in any purchase object related to food and drink identified by the purchase object identifier included in the receipt information. The information may also be information indicating a relationship between a purchase object that includes an allergen and an allergen contained in the purchase object among the purchase objects related to the food and drink identified by the purchase object identifier.

The acquisition unit 13 may acquire information regarding the presence or absence of allergic substances, for example, in the following manner. Here, it is assumed that the allergy information is information indicating the presence or absence of each allergic substance. The acquisition unit 13 first acquires one or more purchase object identifiers from the receipt information accepted by the reception unit 12. Next, the acquisition unit 13 accesses the allergy response information and acquires the allergy information corresponding to the acquired first purchase object identifier, and if the allergy information is not null, the first purchase object identifier is not null. A set of an object identifier and information indicating an allergen contained in a purchase object identified by the purchase object identifier is acquired. In addition, if the purchase object identified by the first purchase object identifier is not a purchase object related to food or drink, or if the allergy information corresponding to the first purchase object identifier is null, the purchase object identifier Since there is no corresponding allergen, this process may be skipped. The same applies to the second and subsequent purchase object identifiers. Next, the acquisition unit 13 repeats the same process for all acquired purchase object identifiers after the second one. In this way, a set of a purchase object identifier and information indicating an allergenic substance is obtained. For example, this acquired set is the relationship between a purchase object that includes an allergen among the purchase objects related to food and drink identified by the purchase object identifier included in the receipt information and the allergen contained in the purchase object. It may also be information indicating. In addition, the acquisition unit 13 merges the information indicating allergens contained in all the acquired sets and performs unique processing to obtain all the items to be purchased related to the food and drink purchased according to the receipt information. A list of allergens contained in at least one of them can be obtained. For example, this list of allergens may be information regarding the presence or absence of the allergen to be acquired. Note that when acquiring only a list of allergens, the acquisition unit 13 may acquire, for example, a pair of a purchase object identifier and information indicating an allergen contained in the purchase object identified by the purchase object identifier. Alternatively, only information indicating allergic substances may be acquired.

The output unit 14 outputs the receipt tally information acquired by the acquisition unit 13. Further, the output unit 14 may output, for example, information regarding the presence or absence of an allergic substance acquired by the acquisition unit 13. Note that, for example, when outputting receipt tally information and information regarding the presence or absence of allergic substances, the output unit 14 may also output receipt information corresponding to the information. By doing so, the user can easily understand which receipt information the receipt tally information or the like corresponds to. Here, this output may be displayed on a display device (such as a liquid crystal display or an organic EL display), may be transmitted to a predetermined device via a communication line, may be printed by a printer, or may be printed on a recording medium. It may be stored in , or passed to other components. Note that in this embodiment, the case where the output unit 14 transmits information will mainly be described. Further, the output unit 14 may or may not include a device that performs output (for example, a display device, a communication device, etc.). Further, the output unit 14 may be realized by hardware, or may be realized by software such as a driver that drives these devices.

Note that the user corresponding to the receipt information does not necessarily consume all of the items to be purchased related to the food and drink corresponding to the receipt information. For example, some purchases related to food and drink may be given to others as gifts. Therefore, the amount of items to be purchased included in the receipt tally information may be changed. In this case, the reception unit 12 may receive, for example, one or more pieces of change information. The change information is information that includes, among the purchase object identifiers included in the receipt information, a purchase object identifier that identifies the purchase object whose quantity to be included in the receipt total information is to be changed, and the details of the change regarding the quantity of the purchase object. The content of the change may be shown, for example, by a number or a percentage. In the former case, for example, the number after the change may be the result of subtracting the number indicated in the change details from the number of purchased items (usually this value is an integer greater than or equal to 0 and less than the number of purchased items). . In the latter case, for example, the number of items after the change may be the result of multiplying the number of purchased items by the percentage indicated in the change details (usually this value is a real value greater than or equal to 0 and less than the number of purchased items). . In this case, for example, even when half of the sweet bread to be purchased is eaten, the total value of each nutrient for the amount eaten can be obtained.

The acquisition unit 13 may acquire the receipt tally information using the changed quantity for each purchase object based on one or more pieces of change information received by the reception unit 12 . In this case, receipt tally information will be acquired using the changed number instead of the purchased number. For example, a purchase target for which the number of items after change becomes "0" will be excluded from acquisition of receipt tally information.

Next, the operation of the information processing device 1 will be explained using the flowchart of FIG.
(Step S101) The reception unit 12 determines whether receipt information has been received. If receipt information has been received, the process advances to step S102; otherwise, the process advances to step S105.

(Step S102) The reception unit 12 stores the received receipt information in the storage unit 11. Note that if the user identifier corresponding to the receipt information is also received, the receiving unit 12 may associate the user identifier and the receipt information and store them in the storage unit 11.

(Step S103) The acquisition unit 13 acquires receipt tally information corresponding to the receipt information accepted in step S101 and information regarding the presence or absence of allergens.

(Step S104) The output unit 14 outputs the receipt tally information etc. acquired in step S103. Then, the process returns to step S101.

(Step S105) The receiving unit 12 determines whether change information has been received. If change information has been accepted, the process advances to step S106; otherwise, the process returns to step S101.

(Step S106) The acquisition unit 13 acquires receipt tally information using the changed quantity for each purchase object based on the received change information.

(Step S107) The output unit 14 outputs the receipt tally information acquired in step S106. Then, the process returns to step S101.

Note that if the change information is not accepted, the processes of steps S105 to S107 in the flowchart of FIG. 2 may not be executed. Furthermore, if information regarding the presence or absence of allergenic substances is not acquired, it is not necessary to acquire or output information regarding the presence or absence of allergenic substances in steps S103 and S104. Moreover, the order of processing in the flowchart of FIG. 2 is an example, and the order of each step may be changed as long as the same result can be obtained. Further, in the flowchart of FIG. 2, the process is terminated by turning off the power or by an interrupt to terminate the process.

Next, the operation of the information processing device 1 according to the present embodiment will be explained using a specific example. In this specific example, the storage unit 11 may store the nutrient correspondence information shown in FIG. 3A and the allergy correspondence information shown in FIG. 3B. In FIG. 3A, the nutrient correspondence information includes a purchase object identifier that identifies the purchase object, and nutrient information that indicates the amount of each nutrient of the purchase object. The nutritional information may include, for example, amounts of calories, proteins, carbohydrates, and the like. In the nutrient correspondence information shown in FIG. 3A, for example, the purchase object identified by the purchase object identifier "G001" (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "purchase object G001". The same applies to other purchase objects). The calorific value is 130 kcal, and it is shown that it contains 6.5 g of protein and 9.5 g of carbohydrates. In addition, in FIG. 3B, the allergy response information includes a purchase object identifier that identifies the purchase object, and allergy information that indicates whether the purchase object contains an allergic substance. The allergy information indicates the presence or absence of each allergen by "1" or "0". A value of "1" indicates that the allergen is contained, and a value of "0" indicates that the allergen is not contained. The allergy response information shown in FIG. 3B shows, for example, that the allergen "milk" is included in the purchase target G001. Note that the nutritional information and the allergy information may be integrated information. In this case, the purchase object identifier may be associated with nutritional information and allergy information.

First, a user identified by the user identifier "U001" (hereinafter also referred to as "user U001") reads and obtains a code displayed on a paper receipt by operating the information processing terminal 2. Assume that the information processing device 1 is caused to transmit the code identifier and the user identifier. Then, the code identifier and the like are received by the reception unit 12 of the information processing device 1. Upon receiving the code identifier and the like, the reception unit 12 passes the received code identifier and the address of the sender to the output unit 14 . Upon receiving the code identifier and the like, the output unit 14 transmits the code identifier to a management server that manages receipt information. Upon receiving the code identifier, the management server reads receipt information associated with the received code identifier and transmits it to the source of the code identifier.

The receipt information transmitted in this manner is received by the reception unit 12 of the information processing device 1, passed to the acquisition unit 13, and stored in the storage unit 11 in association with the user identifier “U001” that has been received in advance. It is accumulated (steps S101, S102). It is assumed that the received receipt information is as shown in FIG. In FIG. 4, the receipt information includes the date of the purchase, a store identifier for identifying the store where the purchase was made, the total amount of the purchase, and a plurality of pieces of purchase target information. The purchase object information includes a purchase object identifier for identifying a purchase object, a name of the purchase object, an image of the purchase object, a purchase quantity of the purchase object, and an amount of the purchase object. The receipt information shown in Figure 4 shows that one piece of AB milk and one piece of XY bread were purchased on October 11, 2022 at the store identified by the store identifier R001. .

Upon receiving the receipt information, the acquisition unit 13 acquires the purchase object identifier and the purchased quantity from the receipt information, acquires the nutritional information and allergy information corresponding to the acquired purchase object identifier, and uses that information to The total amount of each nutrient is calculated, and a list of allergens included in the purchase object corresponding to the receipt information is obtained (step S103). Receipt tally information including the calculated total amount of each nutrient, information on the list of allergens, and receipt information corresponding to the receipt tally information, etc. are passed to the output unit 14.

When the output unit 14 receives the information, the output unit 14 outputs the receipt information, the receipt total information, and the list of allergens, which is information indicating the presence or absence of allergens, to the sender's address, such as a code identifier, which has been received in advance. (Step S104). The information thus transmitted is received by the information processing terminal 2 of the user U001 and displayed on its display. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of the display. In FIG. 5, receipt tally information 51 and information 52 indicating the presence or absence of allergenic substances are displayed together with the information included in the receipt information. Note that among the information included in the receipt information, only part of the information may be transmitted from the information processing device 1, or only part of the information may be displayed on the information processing terminal 2. For example, the store identifier, total amount, purchase object identifier, amount, etc. may not be transmitted or displayed. For example, if the receipt information shown in FIG. 4 corresponds to the purchase of food for one meal by user U001, user U001 can determine the amount of calories for one meal by looking at the display in FIG. You can learn about the total amount of each nutrient such as the amount of protein, and you can also learn about allergens contained in that one meal. In addition, in FIG. 5, a quantity change button 53 for changing the quantity is displayed in association with each purchase object. By selecting this amount change button 53, it is possible to change the amount of items to be purchased included in the receipt tally information 51.

For example, assume that user U001 has given half of the purchased XY bread to a friend. Therefore, it is assumed that the user U001 taps and selects the amount change button 53 displayed in association with the XY pan to change the amount to 50%. Then, the change information including the change content indicating the changed amount of 50%, the purchase object identifier G002 that identifies the XY bread to be changed, and the user identifier "U001" are transmitted from the information processing terminal 2. It is transmitted to the processing device 1. The transmitted change information and the like are received by the reception unit 12 of the information processing device 1 (step S105). Then, the sender's address is passed to the output unit 14, and the change information and user identifier are passed to the acquisition unit 13. Upon receiving the change information and the user identifier, the acquisition unit 13 reads the receipt information stored in association with the received user identifier from the storage unit 11, and based on the receipt information and the change information, obtains the receipt information. Total information is acquired (step S106). In acquiring the receipt tally information, the purchase quantity "1" corresponding to the purchase object identifier G002 included in the change information is changed to "0.5" according to the change content "50%" included in the change information. Ru. As a result, for purchase target G002, the amount of each nutrient is changed to half. The receipt tally information acquired according to the change is transmitted from the output unit 14 to the information processing terminal 2 of the user U001 (step S107). The changed receipt total information 51 is then displayed on the information processing terminal 2 of the user U001, as shown in FIG. In FIG. 6, except for the receipt total information 51 and the amount "50%" corresponding to the XY bread, receipt information previously received from the information processing device 1 and information regarding the presence or absence of allergens are displayed. shall be taken as a thing. In this way, user U001 can learn about nutritional information corresponding to the food that he or she ingested. Note that here, a case has been described in which the receipt tally information is updated in accordance with the change information, but information regarding the presence or absence of allergic substances may also be updated in accordance with the change information. For example, if the amount of a certain purchase target is changed to "0" according to change information, and there is an allergen that is only included in that purchase target, that allergen may be excluded from the list of allergens. .

As described above, according to the information processing device 1 according to the present embodiment, it is possible to easily obtain information regarding the total amount of each nutrient regarding the food and drink corresponding to the receipt information. Further, when acquiring information regarding the total amount of each nutrient, there is no need to prepare recipe information, so the burden on the user is reduced. For example, when a user purchases food and drink for lunch at a store, or when a user eats dinner at a restaurant, the total amount of each nutrient related to lunch and the total amount of each nutrient related to dinner are calculated based on the receipt aggregation information corresponding to the receipt information. You can know the total amount of each nutrient. Therefore, it becomes possible to easily grasp the amount of nutrients corresponding to one serving.

Further, if the receipt tally information includes the ratio of the total amount to the index amount per unit period for each nutrient, the balance of nutrients related to the purchase object can be understood from that ratio. For example, when receipt summary information is obtained based on receipt information corresponding to one day's worth of ingredients, by referring to the ratio, it is possible to identify nutrients with a low ratio compared to other nutrients. You can also do it. For example, if only the proportion of protein is low compared to the proportion of calories, carbohydrates, etc., you will be able to know that you need to purchase more protein-containing foods.

In addition, if information regarding the presence or absence of allergens is also obtained, it becomes possible to know, for example, what kind of allergens are included in the purchase item corresponding to the receipt information. . Therefore, even if, for example, the user unintentionally purchases food or drink that contains a specific allergen, it becomes possible to easily understand this fact.

Note that if an allergen that the user is prohibited from ingesting is included in the list of allergens, an alert indicating this may be output. This alert may be output by the information processing device 1 or the information processing terminal 2, for example. In the former case, for example, the storage unit 11 stores a plurality of pieces of information that associate a user identifier that identifies a user with prohibited allergenic substances that the user is prohibited from ingesting, and the acquisition unit 13 With reference to that information, it may be determined whether the list of allergens corresponding to the user's receipt information includes a prohibited allergen for that user. An alert may be output when a prohibited allergy substance is included. When the information processing terminal 2 determines whether a prohibited allergy substance is included in the list of allergens, the information processing terminal 2 stores information indicating prohibited allergens, and uses that information to , it may be determined whether a prohibited allergen is included in the list of allergens corresponding to the receipt information. An alert may be output when a prohibited allergy substance is included.

In addition, if a single purchase includes only food and drink for one person, receipt aggregation information is acquired as described above, and the nutrients corresponding to the food and drink for one person are calculated. You will be able to know information about the total amount of. On the other hand, one purchase may include food and drinks for a predetermined number of people. For example, when purchasing food and drink for a family including multiple members, one purchase usually includes food and drink for a predetermined number of people. In this case, the information regarding the total amount of nutrients corresponding to the receipt information will be information corresponding to a predetermined number of people, and information about each person cannot be easily grasped. Therefore, in such a case, the acquisition unit 13 obtains, for example, information regarding the amount of each nutrient for each person who has allocated the total amount of each nutrient corresponding to the receipt information to a predetermined number of people at a predetermined ratio. Receipt tally information including this may also be acquired. For example, in the case of a family of three including a father, mother, and children, the predetermined ratios may be set as 40% for the father, 30% for the mother, and 30% for the children. In this case, the value obtained by multiplying the total amount of each nutrient obtained as above by 0.4 is the amount of each nutrient for the father, and the value obtained by multiplying the total amount by 0.3 is It may be the amount of each nutrient for mother and child. In this way, even if the receipt information corresponds to food and drink for a predetermined number of people, information regarding the amount of each nutrient for each person can also be known. Note that the predetermined ratio may be stored in the storage unit 11 in association with a user identifier, for example. The acquisition unit 13 may then read out the ratio associated with the user identifier corresponding to the receipt information from the storage unit 11 and calculate information regarding the amount of each nutrient for each person. The information regarding the amount of each nutrient may be, for example, at least one of the amount of each nutrient and the ratio of the amount of the nutrient to the index amount per unit period for each nutrient.

In addition, if a single purchase includes only one serving or one day's worth of food and drink, by acquiring the receipt aggregation information as described above, you can purchase only one serving or one day's worth of food. You will be able to know information about the amount of nutrients corresponding to food and drink. On the other hand, a single purchase may include food and drinks for multiple days. For example, if you buy one week's worth of groceries in bulk, one week's worth of food and drinks corresponds to one receipt information. Furthermore, one purchase may include only some ingredients used in one meal. For example, this happens when you only buy ingredients that are not available in your refrigerator or pantry. In these cases, the information regarding the total amount of nutrients corresponding to the receipt information may be information corresponding to a predetermined period or a portion of information for one meal, and the information may be information for each unit period such as one day. It will not be easy to understand.

Therefore, in such a case, the acquisition unit 13 may also acquire unit period summary information regarding the amount of each nutrient for each unit period based on the receipt information. Note that the unit period aggregate information may be acquired based on a plurality of pieces of receipt information. The plurality of receipt information may be receipt information corresponding to the same user. Further, the output unit 14 may output the unit period aggregate information acquired by the acquisition unit 13. The unit period may be, for example, one day, one week, or one month. Here, the case where the unit period is one day will be mainly explained. For example, the acquisition unit 13 calculates the sum of the total amount of each nutrient in a plurality of unit periods, and calculates the average per unit period from the sum, thereby obtaining unit period aggregate information regarding the amount of each nutrient in each unit period. may be obtained. In this case, for example, receipt information with dates included in a predetermined period (for example, the most recent 30 days) is identified, the total amount of each nutrient is calculated for each of the identified receipt information, and the total amount of each nutrient is calculated. The total amount of each nutrient is added to calculate the total amount of each nutrient, and the total amount of each nutrient is calculated based on the number of unit periods included in the predetermined period (for example, if the predetermined period is 30 days and the unit period is In the case of one day, the average value per unit period for each nutrient may be calculated by dividing by "30", which is 30 days divided by one day. In this case, the information regarding the average value per unit period for each nutrient may be aggregate information for the unit period. The information regarding the average value per unit period for each nutrient includes, for example, at least one of the average value per unit period for each nutrient and the ratio of the average value per unit period to the index amount per unit period for each nutrient. But that's fine. For example, if information on all the food and drink consumed by the user is included in any of the receipt information, by doing so, highly accurate unit period summary information can be obtained. When receipt information corresponding to a plurality of users is accepted by the reception unit 12, for example, the received receipt information may be associated with a user identifier and stored in the storage unit 11. Then, when acquiring the unit period aggregate information corresponding to a certain user, the acquisition unit 13 acquires the unit period aggregate information using a plurality of pieces of receipt information associated with the user identifier that identifies the user. You may.

Further, the acquisition unit 13 may acquire unit period aggregate information based on consumption characteristics per unit period for each purchase object related to food and drink. In this case, the acquisition unit 13 obtains the amount of each nutrient of the purchase target related to the food and drink identified by the purchase target identifier included in the receipt information, based on the consumption characteristics per unit period corresponding to the purchase target. The date may be assigned to multiple days after the date included in the receipt information. The consumption characteristic per unit period may be, for example, the consumption amount per unit period. For example, the daily consumption, which is the consumption characteristic per unit period corresponding to rice, may be set to 150g (i.e., 1 cup), and the consumption characteristic per unit period, which corresponds to 5 slices of bread. The consumption amount per day may be set to one piece. The consumption characteristics per unit period may be stored in the storage unit 11 in association with the purchase object identifier, for example. The consumption characteristics may or may not be information set for each user, for example. In the former case, the storage unit 11 may store consumption characteristics for each purchase object for each user. Moreover, the consumption characteristics may be automatically set based on the inventory information of the purchase target related to food and drink. For example, if inventory information on purchase items related to food and drink is managed, consumption characteristics can be acquired depending on how the number of purchase items related to food and drink decreases. Therefore, the consumption characteristics may be automatically obtained based on inventory information. Note that consumption characteristics per unit period may be set only for purchase objects related to food and drink consumed over multiple days. For example, since sweet bread is usually eaten in one sitting, consumption characteristics per unit period may not be set for sweet bread.

For example, certain receipt information includes a purchase object identifier that identifies a box of 5 pieces of bread, and the consumption amount per day, which is the consumption characteristic per unit period corresponding to that bread, is set to 1 piece. In this case, the acquisition unit 13 calculates the value obtained by multiplying the amount of each nutrient corresponding to 5 pieces of bread by 0.2 (=1 piece/5 pieces) from the date included in the receipt information. It may be allocated to multiple days (in this case, 5 days). The acquisition unit 13 may perform such processing for each purchase object identifier included in the receipt information. As described above, for a purchase target for which consumption characteristics per unit period are not set, the acquisition unit 13, for example, obtains the amount of each nutrient corresponding to the purchase target on the date included in the receipt information. All of the above may be assigned. The acquisition unit 13 may calculate the total value of the amount of each nutrient for each day after allocating the amount of each nutrient to each day for each purchase target. The calculation result becomes unit period aggregate information. In addition, here we have explained the case where the unit period is one day, but even if the unit period is one week, etc., the unit period aggregate information can be obtained by allocating the amount of each nutrient to each unit period in the same way. can do. In this way, amounts of each nutrient will be obtained for each date, for example, amounts of each nutrient on October 11, 2022, amounts of each nutrient on October 12, 2022, etc. This allows the user to know the amount of each nutrient per unit period.

In addition, when calculating the average amount of nutrients or allocating the amount of nutrients to multiple days, the days on which the purchaser does not eat or drink included in the receipt information (hereinafter referred to as "exclusion days") ) may also exist. If the unit period aggregate information is acquired as described above when the excluded date exists, the obtained result will be inaccurate by the amount of the excluded date. Therefore, if there is a blackout date, the receiving unit 12 may receive information about the blackout date when the purchase target food or drink is not eaten, which is included in the receipt information. The information regarding the exclusion date may be, for example, information indicating the exclusion date (for example, information indicating that October 15, 2022 is the exclusion date), or information indicating the percentage of the exclusion date (for example, information indicating that October 15, 2022 is the exclusion date). information indicating that two of these days are excluded days). The acquisition unit 13 may also acquire unit period aggregate information regarding days other than excluded days. In this way, when information regarding exclusion dates is accepted, the unit period may be one day. Furthermore, information regarding exclusion dates may be associated with a user identifier. Then, when unit period aggregate information regarding a certain user is acquired, information regarding exclusion dates corresponding to a user identifier that identifies the user may be used.

For example, when calculating an average value when acquiring unit period aggregate information, the number of unit periods used in calculating the average value may be reduced based on information regarding excluded days. For example, if the last 30 days include 10 excluded days, the number of unit periods used in calculating the average value may be set to "20" (=30-10). Further, when the amount of each nutrient is assigned to multiple days, the amount of each nutrient does not need to be assigned to the excluded days, for example. By doing so, more accurate unit period aggregate information can be obtained.

Furthermore, since the receipt information also includes the amount, the acquisition unit 13 may acquire receipt tally information that includes information regarding the amount. That is, the receipt tally information may include information regarding the amount. More specifically, the acquisition unit 13 may acquire receipt tally information including at least one of the amount of money for each nutrient and the amount of money per unit amount of each nutrient.

For example, the amount of energy that corresponds to the receipt information is the amount that corresponds to the purchase item related to the food and drink that corresponds to the receipt information (this is the amount that is the result of multiplying the number of purchased items by the amount of one purchase item) ) may be the sum of For example, the amount per unit amount of heat corresponding to the receipt information is the sum of the amount corresponding to the purchase object related to the food and drink corresponding to the receipt information, and the amount corresponding to the purchase object related to the food and drink corresponding to the receipt information. It may be a value divided by the total amount of heat corresponding to the object to be purchased. For example, if the unit amount of heat is 100 kcal, the amount per unit amount may be calculated by multiplying the division result by a predetermined number.

For example, the amount of protein corresponding to the receipt information is determined by multiplying the amount corresponding to the purchase object by the percentage of protein included in the purchase object, and then multiplying the amount of protein corresponding to the receipt information by the amount of protein that is included in the purchase object. It may be the result of adding up the items to be purchased. The proportion of protein contained in a certain purchase object may be, for example, a value obtained by dividing the amount of protein contained in the purchase object by the total amount of each nutrient contained in the purchase object. The total amount of each nutrient may be, for example, the total amount of protein, carbohydrate, and lipid. For example, the amount per unit amount of protein corresponding to the receipt information is the value calculated as above, dividing the amount of protein corresponding to the receipt information by the amount of protein corresponding to the receipt information. There may be. Note that, for example, when the unit amount of protein is 100 g, the amount per unit amount may be calculated by multiplying the division result by a predetermined number. The amount of protein corresponding to the receipt information is the amount of protein corresponding to the purchase object related to the food and drink corresponding to the receipt information (this is calculated by multiplying the number of purchased items by the amount of protein contained in one purchase object). ) may be the sum of the resulting quantities. It goes without saying that nutrients other than protein, such as carbohydrates and fats, can also be calculated in the same way as protein.

By calculating such amounts, it becomes possible to know the balance of nutrients based on the amounts. For example, if the price per unit amount of protein is high compared to other nutrients, try to lower the price per unit amount of protein by purchasing more high-protein, inexpensive foods. You can also do it.

Further, in the case where the receipt information also includes a retail identifier, the acquisition unit 13 may acquire receipt total information etc. for each retail business operator identified by the retail identifier, for example. In this case, for example, information regarding the total amount of each nutrient, the amount of money for each nutrient, the amount of money per unit amount of each nutrient, etc. may be acquired for each retailer. Further, in this case, for example, receipt tally information or the like may be acquired from a plurality of pieces of receipt information.
