  In the example of the model case, the alarm operation means 230 transmits an alarm operation signal to the terminal device 1 of the terminal number “# 1” specified by the installation location ID “001”.

  Thereafter, in step S33, the terminal device 1 (# 1) having received the alarm device operation signal operates the alarm device 3 (# 1) connected thereto, and the alarm device 3 (# 1) receives light and sound. Alternatively, a warning is issued by voice or the like to notify that a person is nearby.

  As described above, by operating the alarm device 3 in conjunction with the detection of the user as a trigger, it is possible to transmit the situation of the eyelid in real time and to issue an alarm.

Lighting Operation Means FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing a procedure of data processing performed by the lighting operation means 240 according to the embodiment of the present invention.

  In step S41, the illumination operation means 240 receives from the eyelid detection means 210 the installation location ID of the terminal device 1 when the eyelid is detected. In the example of the model case, the illumination operation means 240 receives “001” as the installation location ID of the terminal device 1 when the eyelid is detected.

  In step S42, the illumination operation means 240 searches the IoT device information database 280C with the received installation location ID at the time of the eyelid detection. The search condition is a record in which the received installation location ID is included in the interlocked installation location ID, and the device type is “L (lighting device)”.

  Thereafter, in step S43, it is determined whether or not there is a record corresponding to the search condition, and if there is a record corresponding to the search condition, the process in step S44 continues, the IoT device information database 280C. A signal for operating the lighting device 51 is transmitted to the lighting device 51 compatible with IoT specified by the installation location ID indicated in the record corresponding to the search condition. On the other hand, if there is no record that satisfies the search condition in step S43, the process ends.

  In the example of the model case, the interlocked installation part ID includes the received installation part ID "001", and a record of the device type "L (lighting equipment)" exists. Specifically, the installation part ID is " It is the lighting apparatus 51 of "501F" and an installation place of "1F facility entrance". Therefore, the illumination operation means 240 transmits an illumination device operation signal to the IoT-compliant illumination device 51 specified by the installation location ID “501”.

  Thereafter, in step S45, the lighting device 51 compatible with IoT, which has received the lighting device operation signal, lights the lighting device as an operation unique to itself. In the example of the model case, the lighting device 51 for IoT installed in the “1F facility entrance” starts lighting.

  As described above, by operating the lighting device 51 compatible with IoT in conjunction with the detection of a deaf person as a trigger, it is possible to prevent an accident during a crawling within the facility.

<Interlocking operation of the lighting device 51 near the eyelid detection point>
As another model case, the case where the illumination operation means 240 receives “002” (corresponding to the installation place name “1F east corridor”) as the installation location ID of the terminal device 1 when the eyelid is detected will be described.

  As shown in Table 3, the linked installation location ID in the IoT device information record can include a plurality of installation location IDs, and in this example of the other model case, three records correspond to the search condition. Become. Specifically, for the three records, the record of the lighting device 51 whose installation location ID is "502" and the installation location is "1F East Corridor", and the installation location ID is "506" and the installation location is "central The record of the lighting device 51 which is a stairway and the record of the lighting device 51 whose installation location ID is “507” and whose installation location is “1F elevator front”. All of these three records include the installation place ID "002" in the interlocking installation place ID.

  Therefore, in the case of this other model case, in step S44, the illumination operation means 240 transmits an illumination device operation signal to each of the three IoT compatible illumination devices 51. That is, the lighting operation means 240 includes the lighting device 51 for IoT installed in the “1F east corridor” specified by the installation location ID “502” and the “central staircase” specified by the installation location ID “506”. Lighting equipment to three IoT compatible lighting equipment 51: IoT compatible lighting equipment 51 installed and IoT compatible lighting equipment 51 installed in "1F elevator front" specified by installation location ID "507" Send an operation signal. Thus, with the detection of a visitor on the terminal device 1 installed in the "1F east corridor" with the installation location ID "002" as a trigger, "1F east corridor", "central staircase" and "1F elevator front" It becomes possible to interlock and operate the three IoT compatible lighting devices 51 installed at different places.

  As described above, by operating the lighting device 51 compatible with IoT installed at different locations in conjunction with the detection of a person who is a deaf person as a trigger, it is possible to prevent an accident during a crawling within the facility. In particular, at night, as shown in Table 1, the habitability flag of the main installation location in the facility of the terminal device 1 is set to "false" (do not allow bribery). The lighting device 51 in the vicinity of the eyelid detection point lights up interlockingly even if the user starts to turn around in the facility. At night, the interior of the facility is dark and it is difficult to see the floor and stairs, so there is a risk that a person may fall and be injured, but lighting the lighting equipment 51 near the area where the eyelids are detected should be interlocked Thus, it is possible to assist in the nighttime habit in the facility and to prevent injuries to the casualties due to falls and the like. In addition to the lighting operation means 240, by having the whistle notification means 220 and the alarm operation means 230 also function, the caretaker of the facility can quickly grasp the habits and habit places of the residents, It is possible to protect the deaf at an early stage from the start.

Imaging Operation Instruction Means FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing the procedure of data processing performed by the imaging operation instruction means 250 according to the embodiment of the present invention.

  In step S51, the imaging operation instruction means 250 receives from the eyelid detection means 210 the installation location ID of the terminal device 1 when the eyelid is detected. In the example of the model case, the imaging operation instruction unit 250 receives “001” as the installation location ID of the terminal device 1 when the eyelid is detected.

  In step S52, the imaging operation instruction unit 250 searches the IoT device information database 280C using the received installation location ID at the time of the eyelid detection. The search condition is a record in which the received installation location ID is included in the interlocked installation location ID, and the device type is “C (imaging device)”.

  Thereafter, in step S53, it is determined whether or not there is a record corresponding to the search condition, and if there is a record corresponding to the search condition, the process continues to step S54 in the IoT device information database 280C. A signal for operating the imaging device 52 is transmitted to the IoT compatible imaging device 52 specified by the installation location ID indicated in the record corresponding to the search condition. On the other hand, if there is no record that satisfies the search condition in step S53, the process ends.

  In the example of the model case, the interlocked installation part ID includes the received installation part ID “001”, and a record of the device type “C (imaging device)” exists. Specifically, the installation part ID is “ It is an imaging device 52 of "512F" and the installation place of "1F facility entrance". Therefore, the imaging operation instruction unit 250 transmits an imaging device operation signal to the IoT compatible imaging device 52 specified by the installation location ID “512”.

  Thereafter, in step S55, the IoT-compatible imaging device 52 that has received the imaging device operation signal performs imaging of the user as an operation unique to itself, and transmits the imaged image to the central control device 2 in step S56. The central control unit 2 records the received captured image in the recording unit 23 together with, for example, a wearer ID and an imaging time at the time of detecting a wrinkle. In the example of the model case, the IoT compatible imaging device 52 installed in the “1F facility entrance” starts imaging of a visitor.

  In this way, by operating the IoT compatible imaging device 52 in conjunction with the detection of a deaf person as a trigger, it is possible to identify the clothes of the deaf person at the time of deafness, and early search and protection of the deaf person It is possible to reduce the labor of carers.

Wearer Search Indication Means FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing a procedure of data processing performed by the wearer search in means 260 according to the embodiment of the present invention.

In the example of the model case, the wearer search instruction means 260 receives “001” as the installation location ID of the terminal device 1 at the time of detecting a wrinkle.

  In step S62, the wearer search instruction means 260 searches the IoT device information database 280C using the received installation location ID at the time of wrinkle detection. The search condition is a record in which the received installation site ID is included in the linked installation site ID, and the device type is “D (drone)”.

  Thereafter, in step S63, it is determined whether or not there is a record corresponding to the search condition, and if there is a record corresponding to the search condition, the processing in step S64 continues, the IoT device information database 280C. A signal for operating the drone 53 is transmitted to the IoT compatible drone 53 specified by the installation location ID indicated in the record corresponding to the search condition. On the other hand, if there is no record that satisfies the search condition in step S63, the process ends.

  In the example of the model case, the interlocked installation site ID includes the received installation site ID "001", and a record of the device type "D (drone)" exists. Specifically, the installation site ID is "515" And the installation place is the drone 53 of "1F facility outside the entrance". Therefore, the wearer search instruction means 260 transmits a wearer search signal to the IoT compatible drone 53 specified by the installation location ID “515”.

  After that, in step S65, the IoT-compatible drone 53 that has received the wearer search signal performs a search for a guest as an operation unique to itself, and transmits the captured image to the central control device 2 in step S66. The central control unit 2 records the received captured image in the recording unit 23 together with, for example, a wearer ID and an imaging time at the time of detecting a wrinkle. In the example of the model case, an IoT-compatible drone 53 installed in the “outside of 1F facility front door” starts searching for a deceased person.

  As an example of a method of searching for a deceased person by the drone 53, for example, a predetermined search route (for example, an air area with a radius of 100 m near the facility) is set in advance in the drone 53. When the RFID antenna of the drone 53 receives a signal from the identification mark emitted by the person, the imaging data and the imaging time obtained by imaging the person with the imaging device of the drone 53 itself are used as information for searching for the person 53 From the central control unit 2 to the central control unit 2. When the drone 53 further includes position information providing means such as GPS, position information of the drone 53 at the time of imaging (that is, information for specifying the position of the user's eyelid) together with the imaging data and imaging time ) To the central control unit 2.

  As described above, by operating the IoT compatible drone 53 in conjunction with the detection of a deceased person as a trigger, it is possible to early obtain useful information for a deceased person search. As a result, even if the deaf person goes out of the facility from the entrance or emergency exit, it becomes possible to search and protect the deaf person early, and it is possible to reduce the labor of the caretaker.
