Description

  The present invention relates to, for example, a system, a program, and the like that cause display means to display individuality information of a boarding date of a vehicle.

  There are various types of electronic devices mounted on automobiles, such as radar detectors and car navigation devices. These electronic devices have, for example, control means for controlling the device, storage means for storing various information necessary for control, and display means for displaying the processing result by the control means. The display means is constituted by a small display or the like, and the display is disposed in the vicinity of the driver's seat, and the user operates the electronic device by the input of a touch panel, a remote control or the like.

  Many of such vehicle-mounted electronic devices do not always process even while the vehicle is traveling. For example, a radar detector is waiting for processing until it detects a radar. Further, for example, the car navigation device is in a processing standby state when the route guidance is not performed.

  In the process waiting state, the display of the display of the on-vehicle electronic device is often turned off or a standby screen indicating that the process is waiting is often displayed. There were many idle screens that simply displayed images such as manufacturer's logo images.

  However, in recent years, various information has been displayed on this standby screen to try to enhance the convenience and added value of the on-vehicle electronic device (see, for example, Patent Document 1). The information to be displayed on the standby screen includes, for example, general information such as a date and a clock, and information on the vehicle state such as the inclination of the vehicle, the tire pressure or the acceleration applied to the vehicle.

JP, 2012-194016, A

  However, since general information such as dates and clocks and information on vehicle status do not change significantly with each boarding date, users who do not feel the fresh taste of such information do not look very much at the standby screen. There is also the possibility of Therefore, it is necessary to display information that impresses that the boarding date is a special day different from other days and have the user look at the idle screen to further enhance the added value of the on-vehicle electronic device. The

  The present invention has been proposed to solve the problems of the prior art as described above, and the purpose thereof is to make the user recognize that the day of boarding the vehicle has a personality different from other days, It is about providing a system etc. which can make a fresh taste and a surprise feel every time you board.

(1) A system according to the present invention is a system for performing control to display information on a display means, a display for performing control to cause the display means to display personality information of the boarding date together with a date of a boarding date of a vehicle It has a control means.

  Although the date of boarding date is nothing more than inorganic information, displaying the personality information specific to that day with the date allows the user to recognize that the day on which the passenger boarded has a personality different from other days. Therefore, the user can feel a fresh taste and surprise every time he gets on board, and can tighten his awareness and get on the vehicle, so that the user can not drive on the vehicle. It can also be linked to safety.

  The display means may be, for example, one that can be visually recognized by a passenger of the vehicle. For example, from the viewpoint of application to various in-vehicle electronic devices, the display unit may be a display screen. The date of boarding date of the vehicle may be, for example, the current date, and may be acquired from current date generation means such as a battery backed up real time clock. It is more preferable to use an accurate current date and time by using GPS, a mobile phone network, or the configuration to acquire via the Internet or the like.

  The individuality information of the boarding date may be incorporated into a program, for example, or may be acquired from storage means provided in a server or the like via a network, but in particular, storage means incorporated or connected to equipment in a vehicle. It is also possible to store it and to acquire it.

  The individuality information of the boarding day may be, for example, information in which the individuality information and information on a day on which the individuality information is to be displayed are associated and stored. The control for displaying the individuality information of the boarding date on the display means is, for example, a day on which the individuality information is to be displayed, one having the current date acquired from the current date generation means coincident with one another. It is preferable to control to display the stored individuality information in association with. The information on the day on which the individuality information should be displayed may be, for example, date information of a specific day, date information of a plurality of different days, or date information indicating a range of days.

(2) As the individuality information of the boarding date, for example, it is preferable to include information indicating a feature different from the other days of the boarding day. This makes it possible to impress the user who has seen the personality information that the boarding date is a special day different from other days.

  As information indicating such a feature that can impress the user that the boarding date is a special day different from other days, for example, it is possible to experience daily changes such as a calendar and a clock. With regard to difficult inorganic information, it is preferable to use information such that the user who sees it has some impression or feeling on the boarding day.

  The feature different from the other days of the boarding day does not have to be different from all the other days of the boarding day, for example, it may be different from at least the day before and after that day.

  The information indicating the feature that the boarding date is different from the other days may be, for example, a single piece of information whose content changes in units of days, or a plurality of pieces of information whose content changes in units of such days. It may be configured. Further, for example, by combining a plurality of items whose contents change in a longer period than a single day, it is possible to configure information indicating a feature different from the other days of the boarding date.

(3) For example, a plurality of pieces of information having different contents may be provided as personality information of the boarding day. The plurality of pieces of information need not all be information that changes in units of one day, and may be, for example, a plurality of pieces of information whose contents change in different units or cycles. By this, the combination of a plurality of information as a whole constitutes an individuality different from the other days of the boarding day, and each information can also allow the user to experience a large seasonal change such as a change in season.

(4) As the individuality information of the boarding day, for example, information about the boarding day, such as Rokuyo, 24 seasons, seventy two months, moon phases, age, tide or anniversary information, or a combination of such information It is good to have. These pieces of information are different from inorganic information such as mere dates, and include their own meaning, so that the user can be made to feel different from the other days of the boarding date.

  For example, Rokuyo has meaning included in each name itself. In addition, the twenty-fourth season and seventy-two seasons are a kind of calendar similar to the Gregorian calendar used to indicate the current date, but they make the name seasons of each day change. The phases of the moon, the age of the moon, and the tides of the tide change every day on a cycle of about 29 days, and cause a change in time.

  For example, if the boarding date is "daan" on six days, the user can feel good luck on the boarding day. In addition, for example, if the boarding date is "Sakura Opening", the user can feel the fresh taste due to the change of the season.

  The information on the anniversary can similarly make the user feel the special personality of the boarding day. The anniversary may be, for example, a personal anniversary of the user such as a birthday or wedding anniversary. Also, for example, it may be an anniversary such as a public holiday established by a public organization. Also, for example, it may be an anniversary created by a company or an industry group based on date combinations. If the boarding date is assigned to, for example, a memorial day “bath day” in the form of a combination of words, the user can feel surprise in the information of the unexpected anniversary.

  These pieces of information are also examples of information whose contents change in different units or cycles. For example, the contents change on a day-by-day basis, and the change is repeated every six days. The contents of the seventy-two season change every five days, and the change is repeated every year. Like the age, the content changes on a daily basis, and the change is repeated about every 29 days. Although there are days when the anniversary itself does not exist, basically, the content changes in units of one day, and the change is repeated on a one-year cycle.

  Information that changes content on a daily basis such as an anniversary, and information with a long cycle may be used, for example, as information indicating a feature different from the other days of the boarding day alone, whereby simple individuality of the boarding day Can impress. Information such as Roku-yo, 24th-round, 24th-day, age-of-month, etc. is information whose contents do not change on a daily basis or whose cycle is short, but by combining these, the boarding day as a whole as a whole It may be configured as information indicating a feature different from the day of. The combination of these information forms a synergetic effect and not only constitutes a deep personality of the boarding day, but it is also possible to feel the large transition of the season by the individual information such as the 24th season and the 72nd season.

  In addition to these pieces of information, for example, a comment may be displayed to explain the content of the information. For example, in the case of displaying the information of the seventy-two seasons that have a difficult name, for example, the user can easily understand the contents by displaying an explanatory comment that “water starts to freeze” for “water start”. Also, the user's intellectual curiosity can be satisfied. Also, such comments should be customizable by the user.

(5) When using a plurality of pieces of information in combination as personality information of a boarding day, for example, the plurality of pieces of information may be switched and displayed at predetermined time intervals. This allows a lot of information to be displayed and also makes it easier for the user to recognize the individual information. Also, by displaying new information each time the user looks at the screen, the user can also feel a fresh taste. In addition, a vehicle is used as a moving means, and especially when it takes time to move, it becomes boring and the awareness of safe driving tends to be loose. However, for example, each time the driver of the vehicle looks at the display means while the vehicle is stopped, such as waiting for a traffic light or traffic jam, a refreshing effect can be obtained by seeing new information about the boarding date. You can tighten your awareness and drive safely. Also, every time the passenger switches the information displayed on the display means, the driver can have a chance to talk with the driver, and can help the driver to refresh.

(6) Although character information can also be used as personality information of a boarding day, for example, an image showing a feature of the boarding day may be used. By using the image, for example, the user can intuitively feel the personality of the boarding day.

(7) By displaying the character information and the image corresponding to the character information together on the display means, for example, the user can easily and clearly understand the personality information of the boarding date. For example, as described above, the character information may be information on six days of boarding, twenty-four shouts, seventy-two months, moon phases, moon age, tides or anniversary information, as described above.

  As an image corresponding to character information, for example, an image deeply connected to the content of the character information may be used. Specifically, for example, when the character information is the age, it is preferable to display an image of the moon corresponding to the moon phase and age of the boarding day. In addition, for example, when the character information is seventy two and the seventy two on the boarding day is "Sakura opening", it is preferable to display an image of a cherry tree with about half bloom according to this. In addition, when the personality information is an anniversary and the anniversary of the boarding day is "the day of the bath", it is preferable to display an image of the open-air bath according to this.

  Further, for example, it is preferable that the user can customize the character information and the image corresponding to the character information. For example, when displaying information on the wedding anniversary of the user as the personality information of the boarding day, it is assumed that "Today is the wedding anniversary of the year ○ ○" as character information, and displays a picture of the user's wedding as the image. Good.

(8) When there are a plurality of images showing the feature of the boarding date, for example, it is preferable to switch and display the plurality of images at predetermined time intervals. For example, when there is a plurality of character information as individuality information of a boarding day, a plurality of images corresponding to the respective character information may be prepared. In such a case, for example, the display control unit may switch and display the plurality of images at predetermined time intervals. This allows many images to be displayed and also makes it easier for the user to recognize individual images.

  In addition, a vehicle is used as a moving means, and especially when it takes time to move, it becomes boring and the awareness of safe driving tends to be loose. However, for example, each time the driver of the vehicle looks at the display means while the vehicle is stopped, such as waiting for a traffic light or traffic jam, a refreshing effect can be obtained by seeing new information about the boarding date. You can tighten your awareness and drive safely. Furthermore, in the case of an image, information can be easily recognized even in a short stop time. Also, every time the passenger switches the information displayed on the display means, the driver can have a chance to talk with the driver, and can help the driver to refresh. In addition, for example, when the information regarding a boarding day is switched and displayed for every predetermined time, you may make it display each relevant image according to the switching timing.

(9) The system further includes, for example, input receiving means for receiving an input of the occurrence date of the event from the user, and the display control means is, as the boarding date corresponding to the event occurrence day, personality information of the boarding date It is preferable to display a message regarding the event on the display means.

  This allows the user's personal anniversary to be registered as boarding date personality information, and makes it possible to further impress the user that the boarding day is a special day. Also, for example, by inputting an important deadline as an event occurrence date, the system can be used as a convenient reminder. Alternatively, for example, by entering the anniversary of the user's family or lover as the event occurrence date, it can also be used as a means of surprise for them.

  The event may be, for example, a personal memorial event of the user or an important event with a time limit. For example, the user's or user's familiar human birthday, wedding anniversary, driver's license renewal date, various qualifications and member renewal deadlines, vehicle verification deadlines for vehicles or expiration dates for voluntary insurance may be used.

The input receiving means may display, for example, an event input screen different from the screen on which the date of boarding date and the individuality information is displayed on the display means, and receive an input of an event occurrence date and an event type from the user. The input may be performed by, for example, a button provided on the in-vehicle electronic device, a touch panel provided on the display means, a remote controller, or the like. In the event input screen, in addition to the event occurrence date and the type of the event, for example, an input unit of the name of a person related to the event, a selection unit of a message related to the event, or an input unit of the original message may be provided. .
The message related to the event may be a message registered in advance in the system, or may be an original message input by the user.

  If the event is a birthday, for example, the message may be a festive content such as "Happy Birthday". In the case where the license renewal date is input as the event, for example, the message may be the content of a warning message "Do you have renewed driver's license?"

(10) The input receiving unit receives, for example, the input of the type of the event from the user, and the display control unit corresponds the message corresponding to the type of the event input by the input receiving unit to the event occurrence date It may be displayed on the display means as personality information of the boarding day. Although this may greatly change the content of the message to be displayed depending on the type of event such as the date of birth or license renewal date, it is possible to display an appropriate message in accordance with the nature of various events, so it is highly convenient. Can provide sex.

  Types of events include multiple types of events such as birthday, wedding anniversary, driver's license renewal date, various qualifications or member renewal deadline, vehicle verification deadline of vehicles or expiration date of voluntary insurance, It is good to register in advance the types of these events in the system.

  The input of the event type may be performed, for example, by displaying a plurality of types of events registered in advance in the system on the event input screen and selecting a desired event from among them. If there is no desired one of the pre-registered events, for example, it is preferable that the user can register a new type of event.

  As a message corresponding to the type of event, for example, a message corresponding to each type of event may be registered in the system in advance. In response to the user's input of the event type, for example, a message corresponding to the type of the event input from a message registered in advance may be called up and displayed on the event input screen. If there are a plurality of messages corresponding to the input event, for example, those messages may be displayed on the event input screen so that the user can select a desired message from among them.

  If there is nothing desired in the pre-registered message, for example, it is good to allow the user to input an original message. Alternatively, if it is desired to arrange a pre-registered message, for example, the user may be allowed to edit the registered message.

  In addition, it is preferable that, for example, the name of a person who is the destination of the message can be input according to the event type, and the name can be inserted into the selected message. For example, when the event is the birthday of a person close to the user and the name of the person to whom the message is addressed is entered, the message “Mr. ○ ○, happy birthday” may be selected.

(11) The display control means may, for example, cause the display means to display a message notifying the event occurrence date as a message regarding the event before a predetermined period of the event occurrence date. In addition to the event occurrence date, by notifying the event occurrence date, for example, one month before the event occurrence date, the user prepares a present for an event such as a wedding anniversary, or plans a date. It is possible to carefully make preparations such as kneading, to provide the user with high convenience and to help facilitate human relations.

(12) The predetermined period before the event occurrence date is not limited to once, and messages may be displayed one month ago, 10 days ago, 5 days ago, and the previous day, and at short intervals as the event occurrence day approaches. By shortening the interval, it is possible to sensuously understand that the arrival of the event occurrence date is near and to obtain an uplifting feeling to the event. In addition, the necessity of such prior notification and the interval of prior notification may be set on the event input screen.

(13) For example, when the user does not board the vehicle on the event occurrence day, the display control means may display a message reflecting the elapse of the event occurrence day on the next boarding day. There is a possibility that the user does not board the vehicle on the event occurrence day, but in this case, the user notices the passage of the event occurrence date, for example, by displaying a message reflecting the passage of the event occurrence day on the next boarding day. It can be done and it is excellent in convenience.

  The message reflecting the passage of the event occurrence date may be, for example, a message notifying that the event occurrence date has passed. If the type of the event is, for example, the expiration date of the vehicle verification of the vehicle, the message “The vehicle verification expiration date has passed, but the vehicle inspection has been completed?” May be used.

  Also, the message reflecting the passage of the event occurrence date may be, for example, a message in which a change due to the passage is added to the message that should be notified on the event occurrence date. If the type of the event is, for example, a birthday, it may be a message of "Somewhat late but happy birthday". Such messages have a different warmth than just regular messages, so that the user can be urged to attach to the system.

(14) The display control means, for example, sets the event occurrence date as a reference date, and sends a message regarding the event before, within, or on at least one of the days after the end of the predetermined period set across the previous and subsequent days. It is good to display Thus, for example, in the case of an event such as a driver's license renewal or the like, in which an renewable period is set over one month before and after the birthday, a message is sent not only at the reference date but also inside and outside the renewal period. Can be displayed to make the user aware of the driver's license renewal period and reduce the possibility of omission of the driver's license renewal.

  For the predetermined period, for example, a period may be registered in advance in the system according to the type of event, and may be set automatically, or an arbitrary period may be set by user input.

  As a day on which a message is displayed, the day before the start of the predetermined period may be, for example, 10 days before the start date of the license renewal period so that the user can prepare for the license renewal in advance. The date within the predetermined period is, for example, the start date of the license renewal, the date after the start date, the date before the reference date, the date after the reference date, the date before the end date, or the end date. It is good to be able to recognize the passage of time. The day after the end of the predetermined period may be, for example, the next day after the renewal period has passed, and the user may be prompted to confirm whether the license renewal has been completed.

  The message relating to an event may be, for example, a uniform message that simply notifies an event or a predetermined period set, but the content may be changed according to the timing of display, for example. This can, for example, prompt the user to be ready for the event or that the end of the predetermined period is imminent.

  Specifically, for example, the message displayed 10 days before the start date of the license renewal period may be “the license renewal period starts from ○ month ○ day”. Also, for example, the message displayed on the start date may be "It is a license renewal period from today to x month x day. Let's go for renewal early". Also, for example, the message displayed on the reference date or a date after the reference date within the renewal period may be "Renewal period is the remaining day of delta. Please go for urgent renewal." Also, for example, the message displayed on the end date may be "Today's update period ends. Have you been updated?" Also, for example, the message displayed on the day after the end date may be "the update period has ended by x month x day. Has it been updated?".

  Also, for example, when the license has been renewed within the license renewal period, the input accepting means may accept the input of the end of the user's renewal, and the display control means may not display the message thereafter. . Also, for example, when the input acceptance unit accepts an input of the user's update completion, the next license renewal period is automatically set, and the display control unit performs the same message display in the next license renewal period. It is good.

(15) The message relating to the event may be displayed directly on the display means, but for example, a button may be provided to notify the presence of the message, and the message may be displayed on the display means when the user presses the button. By this, for example, the message can be displayed at a timing desired by the user and used as a means of surprise present, which is convenient for the user. Specifically, for example, when the user who is the driver inputs the birthday of the sweetheart as the event occurrence date, when the user goes to pick up the sweetheart and board the passenger seat, the sweetheart is born By displaying a message to celebrate the day, it is possible to give surprises and pleasure to the lover.

(16) A button notifying of the presence of a message related to an event may be, for example, an image button operated on the touch panel, and it is preferable to always display on the display means until the user's button is pressed on the event occurrence date. . As a result, a plurality of pieces of information may be switched every predetermined time as individuality information of the boarding date and displayed on the display means, but a button notifying the presence of a message related to an event may be displayed constantly, for example It is easy to use without missing the timing of surprises.
As a display place of the image button, for example, it may be displayed in a corner of the display screen so as not to disturb the execution of the surprise or the display of other information.

(17) A button for notifying of the presence of a message related to an event may be provided as a physical button, for example, in the vicinity of the display means or in a remote control device used by the user. Also, for example, it is preferable that the physical button is lighted on the event occurrence day. By this, even if the button is not displayed on the display screen, the user can surely know the existence of the message.

  The button may be provided near the display means, for example, around the display screen on the on-vehicle electronic device. In addition, as a remote control device used by the user, for example, a remote control that operates an on-vehicle electronic device may be used.

(18) The date of boarding date and the personality information may be displayed, for example, on the initial screen or the standby screen of the system. In the case where the system is applied to, for example, an in-vehicle electronic device, the user often activates the in-vehicle electronic device when boarding a vehicle, and therefore displays the personality information of the boarding date and traffic accident level information on the initial screen. This makes the information more visible to the user.

The initial screen of the system is, for example, a screen displayed when the system is activated. When the system is applied to, for example, an on-vehicle electronic device, it is preferable that the on-vehicle electronic device is activated and a screen displayed after the manufacturer's logo of the on-vehicle electronic device and safety precautions are displayed.
By displaying the individuality information of the boarding date on the standby screen of the system, it is possible to effectively utilize the display means while the system is waiting for processing.

  The standby screen of the system is, for example, a screen displayed when the system is in the process waiting state. When the system is applied to, for example, a target detection device, it is a screen displayed on the display means in a standby state in which no target is present in the surroundings.

  The boarding date and the individuality information may be displayed on both the initial screen and the standby screen of the system, for example. By being displayed for a long time, the user can be more strongly impressed with the personality of the boarding day and traffic accident level information.

(19) The display control means may, for example, switch a plurality of images corresponding to a change in the state of a predetermined item at predetermined time intervals and display the images together with the personality information of the boarding date on the display means.

  As a result, by displaying a plurality of images according to the state change of the predetermined item together with the personality information of the boarding day, the user can be made to pay attention to the display means, and the interest for the personality information of the boarding day can be enhanced. In addition, it is preferable that the image of the change in state of the item is to predict the next change. In this way, it is possible to evoke not only the boarding date but also the pleasure for the next boarding day.

  The item may be, for example, an object that is created or nurtured over a predetermined period of time by an act such as architecture, horticulture, nurturing, crafting, sewing in the real world. As such items, for example, construction items such as high-rise buildings, towers or bridges, gardening items such as vegetables and fruits, breeding items such as pets, work items such as furniture or robots, or sewing items such as dolls or clothes Good to have.

The state change of an item may be, for example, from the creation start to the completion of the item. The images corresponding to the change in the state of the item may be, for example, a plurality of images indicating the stage from the beginning of creation of the item to the completion of creation.
For example, if the item is a construction item of a building, it is preferable that there are a plurality of images in stages such as a groundbreaking before construction, foundation work, construction in progress, and construction completion.

The item may be, for example, one type or may be selected by the user from a plurality of items. For the selection of items, for example, an item selection screen separate from the screen on which the date and the individuality information are displayed may be displayed on the display unit, and the selection of the item from the user may be received.
The predetermined time for switching the image may be, for example, a fixed time in units of one day, or may be a variable time in accordance with, for example, the traveling time or traveling distance of the vehicle.

(20) The display control means may switch the plurality of images according to the change in the state of the item, for example, according to the traveling time or the traveling distance of the vehicle. By switching the image according to the traveling time and the traveling distance of the vehicle and advancing the change of the state of the item, for example, the user can feel the pleasure of boarding the vehicle.

(21) For example, the display control means may display traffic accident level information of the boarding date on the display means together with the personality information of the boarding date. By recognizing the traffic accident level information of the boarding day together with the personality information of the boarding day, for example, the user is strongly made aware of the traffic accident level information which is likely to be overlooked simply by simply displaying it, and the user can drive safely. It can raise awareness.

(22) As traffic accident level information of a boarding day, it is good to display a traffic accident caution level according to an item, and a general traffic accident caution level, for example. By this, for example, the user can grasp the attention level of the boarding day at a glance, and further confirm the detailed level by item. For example, monthly evaluation, day evaluation, time zone evaluation, area evaluation, prefecture evaluation, and speed evaluation may be provided as traffic accident attention levels for each item.

  The itemized and comprehensive traffic accident attention level may be determined, for example, from the number of traffic accident occurrence level evaluations, in which the number of traffic accident occurrences in the past is classified under a predetermined condition and relative valued. The predetermined condition may be, for example, monthly, day of the week, time of day, area or speed. This makes it possible to display a highly reliable attention level.

  Item traffic accident attention level, for example, from the evaluation of the past traffic accident occurrence level of the conditions corresponding to each item, based on the month of the boarding day, day of the week, time, the current position, to extract the corresponding score It is good to make a decision. In addition, it is preferable that the comprehensive traffic accident occurrence level is determined by, for example, summing evaluation scores extracted for each item. Alternatively, such a traffic accident warning level may be calculated in advance for each boarding day, and may be stored in the storage unit.

(23) The traffic accident attention level of the boarding day according to the item and the general traffic accident occurrence level may be displayed in different colors according to the level, for example. This allows the user to easily determine the level high and low. For example, it may be displayed in red when the level is high, yellow when the level is medium, and green when the level is low.

(24) Traffic accident level information may be displayed by displaying it on the initial screen or the standby screen together with the personality information. As a result, it is possible to impress the user on traffic accident level information before boarding or during boarding of the vehicle, and to be aware of safe driving.

  When the system is applied to, for example, an on-vehicle electronic device, the user often activates the on-vehicle electronic device when boarding a vehicle, so by looking at traffic accident level information on the initial screen, awareness of safe driving can be realized. You can start driving. Also, by viewing traffic accident level information on the initial screen, it is possible to tighten the user and start driving. In addition, by looking at traffic accident level information on the idle screen while the vehicle is stopped due to traffic congestion, etc., for example, when the driver is relaxed by long driving, the driving is restarted with awareness of safe driving again. Can.

(25) The program of the present invention is a program for causing a computer to realize a function as display control means in the system according to any one of (1) to (24) above.

  According to the present invention, the user can recognize that the day when he / she gets in the vehicle has a different personality from the other days. Therefore, the user can feel freshness and surprise every time he / she rides, instead of riding on the vehicle as if it is similar every day. Thus, when the system is applied to, for example, an on-vehicle electronic device, the added value of the on-vehicle electronic device can be enhanced. In addition, the user can feel freshness and surprise in the individuality of the boarding day and can tighten awareness to ride on the vehicle, which can also lead to safety in driving the vehicle.

[Standby screen display function]
The control unit 18 also causes the display unit 5 to display a standby screen when input of information or input from the user is not performed from various input devices, that is, in the standby state. The control unit 18 extracts the individuality information of each boarding day stored on the EEPROM, incorporates it into the format of the predetermined standby screen, and outputs the boarding day-specific standby screen.

  FIG. 3 shows an example of a standby screen on which such personality information of a boarding day is displayed. The standby screen 50 shown in FIG. 3 is roughly divided into an upper area R1 and a lower area R2, and individuality information is displayed on each of them.

  First, “2011 3/26 SAT 17: 58” is displayed as the boarding date date information 51 in the upper part. The date information of the boarding date includes the year, month, day, day of the week and time. The control unit 18 acquires the current time represented by year, month, day, hour, minute and second timed by the real time clock 39, and is stored in the EEPROM, see a calendar 40 (FIG. 4) described later. The day of the week is acquired, and these are displayed on the standby screen 50 as date information 51.

  Next, next to the date information 51 of the boarding day, six days 52 of the boarding day are displayed as one of the individuality information of the boarding day. Rokuyo is made up of six wins, Tohiki, Bouncy, Buddha destruction, Daan and Red Mouth, and each day has its own good luck. Therefore, compared to inorganic information such as date information 51, it is possible to have some impression or impression on the boarding date. In FIG. 3, "Daian" on Shunyo is displayed as an example, but Daan is considered to be the most auspicious day of Rokuyo. Therefore, the user who sees the individuality information of the boarding day of Daan can feel the feature different from at least the day before and after the boarding day.

  Below the date information 51 of the standby screen 50 and the six days 52, the seventy two symbol 53 of the boarding day is displayed as one of the individuality information of the boarding day. Seventy-two seasons are a kind of calendar designed in China, which is a 24-year-long break of 24 equal divisions of a year divided into three equal parts every five days, the first season, the second season, and the late season. is there. Each climate has a name to inform it of changes in weather, temperature and flora and fauna. For example, the first season of the twenty-fourth season air "rise spring" is named "eastern thawing (eastern begins to melt thick ice)". In addition, for example, the next season of the twenty-fourth summer air “summer solstice” is given the name “Hinhua (Azalea flower blooms)”. From such names of the seventy two, the user can feel the seasonal transition on the boarding day.

  In FIG. 3, as an example, "Sakura opening" is displayed. Since the names of the seventy-two names are often difficult to understand alone, it is preferable to display a brief explanation together so that the user can easily understand them. In FIG. 3, an explanatory note “It is assumed that the time when the cherry blossoms begin to bloom” is displayed next to “the cherry blossom first opening”. The information is displayed surrounded by a square frame so that the name and the description of the message can be easily understood in an integrated manner.

  In FIG. 3, an image 54 corresponding to the seventy two symbol is displayed on the right side of the seventy two symbol 53 displayed as character information. Specifically, an image of a cherry blossom corresponding to the "Sakura Opening" of the Seventy Two is displayed. The image of the cherry blossoms is an image that is deeply connected to "Sakura Opening", which means "about when the cherry blossoms begin to bloom", so that the user can easily and clearly understand the meaning of "Sakura Opening."

  As shown in FIG. 4, the information of Rokuo 52 and Seventy-two character 53, which is the individuality information of the boarding date, is stored in the form of a calendar 40 on the EEPROM. That is, the personal information is associated with the information on the date of the day to be displayed, and the information of Roku 52 and the information of the image 72 and the image 54 related to the image of the image 72 are stored.

  Commentary sentence 58 b displays a sentence explaining the level of accident caution on the boarding day. In FIG. 3, the sentence "The accident warning level is moderate but there are many accidents. Please be careful." Is displayed. That is, after commenting on the general traffic accident warning level 58a, it is a content to explain a notable point in the traffic accident warning level 59 classified by item.

  The traffic accident caution levels 59a to 59f of each item described above are obtained by extracting points corresponding to the conditions of the boarding day from the traffic accident occurrence level evaluation table as shown in FIG. 5A. It is displayed. This traffic accident level evaluation chart is stored on the EEPROM. The traffic accident occurrence level evaluation chart shows the number of occurrences of traffic accidents in the past in the table 1. ~ 6. It is created by classifying and relativeizing under the conditions shown in, and calculating the score. Table 1. ~ 6. The conditions shown in correspond to items 59a to 59f, respectively. The following table 1. ~ 6. The conditions of

1. Monthly accident level evaluation The number of accidents occurring in each month from January to December is converted to a relative value and used as the evaluation score for each month.

2. Accident level evaluation according to the day of the week The number of accidents occurring on each day of the day from Sunday to Saturday is converted into a relative value and used as the evaluation score for each day of the week.

3. Evaluation of accident level by time zone The number of traffic accidents occurring every two hours from 0 o'clock to 24 o'clock is converted to a relative value, and is used as an evaluation score for each time zone.

4. Accident level evaluation in the area where accidents frequently occur Add a score of 5 to the area where accidents frequently occur that MLIT and the National Police Agency are open to the public.

5. Accident level assessment per 100,000 population The number of accidents per 100,000 population in each prefecture is calculated, and the number of occurrences is ranked in the order of 1 to 5 for every tenth place. The higher the number of occurrences, the higher the score.

6. Evaluation of accident level by speed The speed is divided into two stages for general roads and expressways, and each is rated. Specifically, on a general road, the evaluation is 2.5 points at 60 km to 69 km per hour, and five points at 70 km per hour or more. In the expressway, the evaluation is 2.5 points at 105 km to 120 km per hour, and 5 points at 121 km per hour or more.

The control unit 18 performs the above-described 1. ~ 6. From the evaluation table of, the evaluation score corresponding to the conditions of the boarding day is extracted. In the example displayed in FIG. 3, the evaluation score is extracted under the following conditions.

  Specifically, Table 1. The evaluation score corresponding to the current month acquired by the real time clock 39 is extracted. Table 2. , The evaluation score corresponding to the current day of the week acquired by the calendar 40 is extracted. Table 3. The evaluation score of the time zone corresponding to the current time acquired from the real time clock 39 is extracted. Table 4. In the case where the current position acquired from the GPS receiver 13 corresponds to the accident frequently occurring area, the score 5 is extracted. Table 5. , The evaluation score of the prefecture where the current position obtained from the GPS receiver 13 is located is extracted. Table 6. For the above, the types of expressways and general roads obtained from the GPS receiver 13 are determined from the current position, and evaluation scores corresponding to the speed of the vehicle obtained from the acceleration sensor 37 are extracted.

  Next, the control unit 18 determines the level of the evaluation score of each item extracted. Specifically, according to the individual level evaluation table shown in FIG. This individual level rating table is stored on the EEPROM. If the evaluation score is 4 to 5, the level is determined to be large, if the evaluation score is 2.1 to 3.9, the level is determined to be medium, and if the evaluation score is 1 to 2, the level is determined to be small.

  The control unit 18 increases or decreases the area of the colored portion of the indicator according to the extracted evaluation score for each item 59a to 59f, and colors it with colors according to the large, middle, and small of the determined level. Display on 50

  The control unit 18 further integrates the evaluation scores of the extracted items 59a to 59f, and determines the level of the total score. Specifically, according to the comprehensive level evaluation table shown in FIG. 5 (c), high, middle and low levels are determined. This comprehensive level evaluation chart is also stored on the EEPROM. If the evaluation score is 21 to 30, the level is determined to be large, if the evaluation score is 11 to 20, the level is determined to be medium, and if the evaluation score is 1 to 10, the level is determined to be small.

  The control unit 18 causes the standby screen 50 to display the general accident caution level 58a in a color corresponding to the determined level of high, middle, and low. Furthermore, a comment 58 b corresponding to the determined level is generated and displayed on the standby screen 50.
