Embodiments according to the present technology will now be described below with reference to the drawings.
Using the assistant device 10, a user P can acquire information related to services provided by the external device 80. For example, when an organization, an institution, or a company that has the external device 80 provides the user P with services, the external device 80 receives an order related to the services from the user P through the assistant device 10.
The assistant device 10 includes hardware that is a projector 11, a speaker 12, a camera 13, and a microphone 14, and further includes a projector controller 11a, a speaker controller 12a, a camera controller 13a, and a microphone controller 14a. These controllers 11a, 12a, 13a, and 14a each perform, for example, a drive control, an A/D conversion, or a D/A conversion on the respective piece of hardware.
The assistant device 10 includes a communication unit 18, an analysis/recognition unit 15, an information generator/controller 25, a speech controller 16, a video signal processing unit 17, a database 20, and a database management unit 19.
The communication unit 18 is a network interface that makes it possible to establish a communicative connection with the external device 80.
The analysis/recognition unit 15 has a function that analyzes user-presented information that is information provided by a user to recognize what the user-presented information means. The user-presented information is input from at least one of the camera 13 or the microphone 14. At least one of the camera 13, the microphone 14, or the analysis/recognition unit 15 serves as “an acquisition unit” that acquires the user-presented information.
The information generator/controller 25 has a function that generates order information on the basis of the user-presented information analyzed by the analysis/recognition unit 15. The order information is information obtained by putting one or more orders included in the user-presented information together. Further, the information generator/controller 25 has a function that generates proposal information on the basis of external proposal information proposed by the external device 80, as described later. In this case, the information generator/controller 25 serves as an “order information generator” and a “proposal information generator”.
The speech controller 16 is configured to perform a control to output (provide a speech of) the information generated by the information generator/controller 25 through the speaker 12.
The database 20 includes two data storing regions. One is a sharable information region 21 that stores therein sharable information that is allowed to be provided to the external device 80 (that is allowed to be shared with the external device 80). The other is a non-sharable information region 23 that stores therein non-sharable information that is not allowed to be provided to the external device 80 (that is not allowed to be shared with the external device 80). The database management unit 19 is an interface that manages an access to the database 20 made by the analysis/recognition unit 15 and the information generator/controller 25.
The video signal processing unit 17 has a function that outputs (presents), as a video (an image), information generated by the information generator/controller 25 through the projector 11. At least one of the speaker 12, the projector 11, the speaker controller 12a, the projector controller 11a, or the information generator/controller 25 serves as a “presentation unit” that presents information to a user.
The information generator/controller 25, the analysis/recognition unit 15, the speech controller 16, the video signal processing unit 17, and the database management unit 19, as well as the projector controller 11a and the like are provided by hardware such as CPU (Central Processing Unit), RAM (Random Access Memory), and ROM (Read Only Memory), or by software stored in the RAM and the ROM. A PLD (Programmable Logic Device) such as FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) may be used instead of, or in addition to the CPU.
At least one of the video signal processing unit 17, the communication unit 18, or the projector controller 11a or the like may be constituted of modularized hardware. The database 20 is constituted of, for example, a semiconductor storage or a magnetic recording device.
First, a user presents an order that is user-presented information to the assistant device 10. For example, sound information provided by a speech of the user is input to the microphone 14 (Step 101). The user-presented information includes sharable information and non-sharable information in a mixed manner.
Specifically, it is assumed that the user is a father of a family who has a daughter (first daughter). The following are examples of the user-presented information.
“Wish to go to Oahu Island for 4 days and 3 nights with family during a first daughter's summer vacation”,
“Budget is about 300,000 JPY”,
“First daughter wishes to play on a beach”, and
“Wish to avoid XX Hotel this time since it was dirty when I previously went to Oahu Island”.
The analysis/recognition unit 15 analyzes the sound and recognizes the content of the sound (Step 102). Then, the analysis/recognition unit 15 outputs data of it to a data management unit and the information generator/controller 25. The data management unit stores the data in the database 20. The data is grouped into sharable information and non-sharable information, and the sharable information and the non-sharable information are respectively stored in the sharable information region 21 and the non-sharable information region 23.
The following is a method for grouping user-presented information into sharable information and non-sharable information.
For example, it is a method using information preset by a user as non-sharable information. In this case, for example, the user presets a keyword and stores it in the non-sharable information region 23. The keyword may be updated by a manipulation performed by the user.
Alternatively, after Step 102 and before Step 103, the assistant device 10 may inquire of a user at one time whether user-presented information is non-sharable information, using an image or sound. The assistant device 10 may create a database of sharable information and non-sharable information during such a work process.
“Wish to go to Oahu Island for 4 days and 3 nights with family during a first daughter's summer vacation”, and
“Budget is about 300,000 JPY” are stored as current requests.
Further, information such as family members and a family's fixed schedule during summer vacation is stored as previously obtained data.
On the other hand, the following are examples of the information stored in the non-sharable information region 23.
“First daughter wishes to play on a beach”, and
“Wish to avoid XX Hotel this time since it was dirty” are stored as current requests.
Further,
“Wife is allergic to carpets”,
“Wife likes to go shopping (in particular, a brand of ∘∘)”,
“First daughter cannot swim”, and
other information such as a record of and comments on the family's trip to Hawaii, and information regarding Oahu Island from the outside (such as information from, for example, SNS (Social Networking Service))
are stored as previously obtained data.
Referring to
Here, the process of omitting non-sharable information from among user-presented information includes, for example, a process of deleting the non-sharable information or a process of substituting the non-sharable information with invalid information such as a null value. On the other hand, the process of converting non-sharable information from among the user-presented information into alternative information is a process of converting, into sharable information, information that a user does not wish to share with an external device. For example, the conversion process includes, for example, a process of changing information included in non-sharable information to information with broader terms, and a process of replacing certain information by another information (anonymization process), the certain information being information with which personal information can be specified, the other information being information with which it is difficult to specify personal information.
The assistant device 10 presents at least one of the order information or the order confirmation information before the assistant device 10 starts establishing a communicative connection with the external device 80 (Step 104). In other words, the information generator/controller 25 starts establishing a communicative connection after the order information is generated.
As illustrated in
The following are examples of sharable information.
“Trip for 3 family members to Oahu Island for 4 days and 3 nights, Budget: up to 300,000 JPY”, and
“Date: mm/dd to mm/dd′”.
The following are examples of alternative information.
“Except for XX Hotel”,
“Wood-floored room”,
“There is near the hotel a shoaling beach which provides satisfactory beach activities”, and
“There is a shopping mall near the hotel”.
Further, the following are pieces of information of non-sharable information, with the pieces of information being enclosed in parentheses.
(Current request),
(countermeasures for wife's allergy),
(daughter is not good at swimming, and current request), and
(wife likes to go shopping).
A user can confirm whether order information includes non-sharable information by reviewing the order information. In particular, the user can confirm that non-sharable information is appropriately converted into alternative information. If an appropriate conversion is not performed, the user can make a request for the assistant device 10 to make a correction.
On the other hand, the user can easily confirm both non-sharable information and information alternative to the non-sharable information by reviewing order confirmation information also including the non-sharable information.
For example, machine learning techniques are used as means for performing a process of converting non-sharable information into alternative information. Examples of machine learning include various known techniques such as a broader-term extraction, clustering, a neural-network technology, SVM (Support Vector Machine), and genetic programming. Alternatively, the means for performing a conversion process may be a technique obtained by combining at least two thereof.
A look-up table for conversion that is generated in advance, is another example of the means for performing a process of converting non-sharable information into alternative information. For example, a user can generate the look-up table by inputting information to the look-up table.
Referring to
The information generator/controller 25 may inquire of the user, for example, whether “is it possible to place an order with this content?” Such an inquiry is made using, for example, sound, but it may be made using an image. In this case, when a response for approval is received from the user after the inquiry is made, a connection starts being established by the communication unit 18.
As described above, the presentation of order information and/or order confirmation information in Step 104 before the order information is transmitted, permits a user to confirm with certainty that non-sharable information is omitted or converted into alternative information.
When the external device 80 receives the order information, the external device 80 generates external proposal information on the basis of the received order information (Step 107). Here, for example, the assistant device 10 may also present an image indicating that it is now a state of waiting for a proposal plan, as illustrated in
The assistant device 10 generates proposal information on the basis of the received external proposal information (Step 109), and presents the generated proposal information to the user (Step 110). Typically, the proposal information includes the external proposal information.
As indicated in the proposal information presented in the image (refer to the left in
For example, one of the methods for generating proposal information based on non-sharable information is a method including: generating an image in which a specified region in external proposal information is displayed with emphasis; and using the generated image as a portion of or the entirety of proposal information. For example, it is sufficient if an image is generated such that a plan that best meets conditions including those indicated by non-sharable information, is displayed with emphasis.
Although the external proposal information does not indicate which of the three plans is superior to which of the others, the proposal information displays, with emphasis, a recommended plan (Plan Z) from among the three plans.
The “specified region” to be displayed with emphasis is not limited to a region, and it may be a text itself. For example, examples of a display with emphasis are changing, for example, a color, a type of line, a thickness of line, a font, or a size of a specified region, and adding a specified object image or an animation.
Proposal information including a display with emphasis is not necessarily generated on the basis of non-sharable information, and may be generated according to another specified algorithm.
Another one of the methods for generating proposal information based on non-sharable information is a method for including non-sharable information in external proposal information. Specifically, as illustrated on the right in
“XX Hotel to be avoided, Recently popular for its cleanliness in SNS”,
“Daughter who is not good at swimming”, and
“Brand of ∘∘ that wife likes”.
As described above, since the information generator/controller 25 generates proposal information on the basis of external proposal information and non-sharable information, the information generator/controller 25 can generate proposal information that can be easily understood by a user.
The following is yet another example of the method for generating proposal information based on non-sharable information. From among a plurality of proposed items in proposal information, the information generator/controller 25 can generate, on the basis of non-sharable information, information regarding a proposed item corresponding to a specified region. In other words, the information generator/controller 25 adds at least a portion of the content of non-sharable information to a proposed item (information regarding “Plan Z” displayed with emphasis in the example illustrated in
The assistant device 10 may communicatively disconnect from the external device 80 before the proposal information is presented.
Referring to
In the description above, a user inputs information to the assistant device 10 using sound. However, a user may input information using an input device (a keyboard, a pen, a mouse, or a touch manipulation) or using a movement of the body such as a gesture. Alternatively, the input may be performed using sound and at least one of these inputs in combination. The same applies to other specific examples described later.
The assistant device 10 presents order information, order confirmation information, and proposal information using an image, but the assistant device 10 may present them only using sound or using both sound and an image. The same applies to other specific examples described later.
As described above, in the first embodiment, the assistant device 10 omits non-sharable information or converts the non-sharable information into alternative information, and generates order information. This improves a performance in selection of information to be output to the external device 80, which results in being able to provide a user with services with improved convenience.
In the present first embodiment, the information generator/controller 25 modifies external proposal information or includes non-sharable information in the external proposal information, and presents the external proposal information as proposal information on the basis of the external proposal information. However, the information generator/controller 25 may present, as proposal information, the substantive content of external proposal information without any change.
Next, a second specific example in which the user is a farther who has a daughter (first daughter) and is provided with proposal services of a plan for his first daughter's preparatory school by the external device 80, is described. The sequence of processes in the second specific example is similar to that illustrated in
The following are current requests from among sharable information.
“Wish to improve math and Japanese skills”, and
“Available for a preparatory school except Saturday and Sunday”.
“First daughter is in the second year of a junior high school” is previously obtained data from among the sharable information.
The following are current requests from non-sharable information.
“First daughter does not like Company Z since it gives a test every day”, and
“Next test in her junior high school is given on May 24, in which the goal score is equal to or more than ∘X and the scope of the test is ∘A”.
“On Wednesday, first daughter is home late due to club activities”
is previously obtained data from among the non-sharable information. In addition, the non-sharable information includes a result/the details of tests of a junior high school and a preparatory school, and information regarding a preparatory school from the outside such as SNS.
The information generator/controller 25 generates order information on the basis of the user-presented information described above (Step 103) (refer to
Although a specific example of the order information is not illustrated, the order information is constituted of the following. Information enclosed in parentheses indicates a reason for the order, and includes the non-sharable information described above.
The preparatory school is “Company Y”: (“First daughter does not like Company Z since it gives a test every day”, and “Company Y is popular in SNS” in the non-sharable information);
the term is set to “until May 23”: (“Next test in her junior high school is given on May 24” in the non-sharable information);
the target subjects are “math and Japanese of the second year of a junior high school”: (“Wish to improve math and Japanese skills”, and “First daughter is in the second year of a junior high school” in the sharable information);
the study area to be improved is ∘A: (the scope of the test is ∘A″ in the non-sharable information); and
it is possible to go to a preparatory school “except Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday”: (“On Wednesday, first daughter is home late due to club activities” in the non-sharable information).
In
As described above, the proposal information is information obtained by modifying the external proposal information using a display with emphasis, or information obtained by including non-sharable information in the external proposal information, or information that is the external proposal information virtually presented without any change.
Although a specific example of the proposal information is not illustrated, it is assumed that plans of, for example, two preparatory-school companies, Company X and Company Y, are presented. Between the two, the information generator/controller 25 determines that Company Y is to be recommended and generates proposal information, on the basis of non-sharable information. The following are examples of the content of the proposal information. Information enclosed in square brackets is information based on non-sharable information.
“How about ∘∘ Plan of Company Y, Level B of Math & Japanese Course? Company Y gives a test only once a week. This ∘∘ Plan appears to be [popular for a private class depending on the level of a student]. This plan has a schedule until the day before the next test, avoids [Wednesday on which your daughter is home late due to club activities], as well as Saturday and Sunday as requested, and satisfies [scope of the test is OA]. Thus, we think that this plan meets your wishes considering [next test is given on May 24]. Regarding the level, we consider that Level B of this ∘∘ Plan would be most appropriate in order to clear [next goal score is equal to or more than ox]”.
Subsequently, Steps 111 to 113 are performed.
The sharable information and the non-sharable information in the first and second specific examples described above are given in
An information processing system 100 according to the second embodiment includes a first assistant device 10 (information processing device) possessed by a user, and a second assistant device 50 (second information processing device) possessed by, for example, a company that provides services. This system may have a configuration in which, for example, the company or the like lends the second assistant device 50 to a user. A user can place the first assistant device 10 and the second assistant device 50 in the same interior space or in the same room.
The first assistant device 10 has a configuration substantially similar to the configuration of the assistant device 10 according to the first embodiment. The second assistant device 50 has a configuration substantially similar to the configuration of the first assistant device 10, and has a different content in a database 30. The database 30 of the second assistant device 50 stores therein, for example, customer information and data necessary for services.
After order information (refer to, for example,
The first assistant device 10 transmits the generated order information to the second assistant device 50 (Step 209). At the same time as Step 209, or before or after Step 209, the first assistant device 10 may present order information that does not include non-sharable information, not order confirmation information that includes non-sharable information (Step 209′). In the present embodiment, a position onto which an image is projected by the projector 11 of the first assistant device 10 may be, for example, in a range in which the camera 13 of the second assistant device 50 performs image-capturing. Thus, the first assistant device 10 presents, as an image allowed to be acquired by the second assistant device 50, order information (refer to
The first assistant device 10 inquires whether to disconnect from the second assistant device 50 (Step 213). When the user approves the disconnection (Step 214), the first assistant device 10 performs disconnection (Step 215). Then, the first assistant device 10 presents proposal information generated in Step 212 (Step 216).
After Step 216, the processes of Steps 111 to 113 are performed as in the case of the processes illustrated in
Here, After Step 215, the first assistant device 10 may present the order information and/or the order confirmation information generated in Step 203 (Step 316) (refer to
In this case, at least one of the projector 11, the projector controller 11a, the speaker 12, the speaker controller 12a, or the information generator/controller 25 of the first assistant device 10 serves as a “first presentation unit”. Further, at least one of the projector 11, the projector controller 11a, the speaker 12, the speaker controller 12a, or the information generator/controller 25 of the second assistant device 50 serves as a “second presentation unit”.
Note that the content of the order information illustrated in
As described above, when the two images are displayed at the same time, a process of specifying which of the images is information presented by the first assistant device 10 or the second assistant device 50, may be performed. For example, as illustrated in
The two images illustrated in
The first assistant device 10 may include a control-signal output unit (not illustrated) that outputs, to the second assistant device 50, a signal that controls a specified process performed by the second assistant device 50.
The specified process is a process of turning off, for example, the function of the camera 13 or the microphone 14 of the second assistant device 50 (stop inputting a signal), or a process of turning off the function of the projector 11 or the speaker 12 (stop outputting a signal). Alternatively, the first assistant device 10 may control the content of information presented by the second assistant device 50 (a content of display and/or a content of sound). Alternatively, the first assistant device 10 may control a communicative connection (a start of establishing a connection, or disconnection) in the communication unit 18.
The present technology is not limited to the embodiments described above, but can realize other various embodiments.
The assistant device 10 (the first assistant device 10) and the second assistant device 50 in the embodiments described above each include the camera 13, the microphone 14, the projector 11, and the speaker 12. A configuration in which at least one of the camera 13, the microphone 14, the projector 11, or the speaker 12 is a device that exists independently of the others, and the device is connected to a corresponding assistant device, may be made.
The information processing system 100 according to the second embodiment described above physically includes two assistant devices. However, the information processing device may be physically constituted of a single device, and the single device may be configured to perform processes by switching the two assistant devices functionally and logically.
The processes of Steps 205 to 207 in the second embodiment described above (refer to
The present technology is also applicable to the medical field. For example, a user can place an order with or consult the external device 80 (or the second assistant device 50) possessed by a medical institution through the assistant device 10 (or the first assistant device 10) that can be connected to the external device 80 (or the second assistant device 50).
