Below, a detailed description of the mode for carrying out the present invention (hereinafter, the embodiment) will be given with reference to the attached drawings. In the following figures, the same elements are given the same numbers or symbols throughout the description of the embodiment.

[Basic concept/basic configuration]
1 is a diagram for explaining an overview of a sauna sharing system 1. The sauna sharing system 1 is a system including at least a sauna sharing device 100 that stores user data and facility information, accepts reservations from users 200, and controls a remote lock of a sauna facility 300 in response to the reservations, the users 200, a user terminal 50 used by the users 200, and the sauna facility 300.

First, the sauna sharing device 100 acquires and stores user data (step S01). User data is data about the users 200 who use the sauna sharing system 1.

Next, the sauna sharing device 100 acquires and stores facility information (step S02). The facility information is information about the sauna facility 300 that can be used in the sauna sharing system 1.

Figure 14 is a diagram showing an example of the contents of user data and facility information. User data includes information such as the user's 200 "name, age (date of birth), gender, facility information used, and favorite facility information." Payment data such as credit card and electronic money may also be included. Facility information includes information such as the sauna facility 300's "name, address, provider, size, stove type, presence or absence of cold bath, presence or absence of rest area, sauna items, and usage fee." It may also include information that should be obtained in real time, such as "sauna room temperature, sauna room humidity, cold bath temperature, and availability."

Returning to FIG. 1, the user 200 specifies a time from the user terminal 50 to make a reservation for the sauna facility 300 (step S03). Before making the reservation, the user 200 registers user data in the sauna sharing system 1 from the terminal 50.

Finally, the sauna sharing device 100 controls the remote locking of the sauna facility 300 in response to the reservation made by the user 200 (step S04). When the time for use arrives and the user 200 enters the sauna facility 300, a locking process is performed, and when use is finished, an opening process is performed.

Here, the sauna facility 300 is a sauna facility that can be reserved and used through the sauna sharing system 1, and the provider of the sauna facility 300 registers the facility information in advance in the sauna sharing system 1. The sauna facility 300 also has a remote lock function, and is capable of locking and opening processes under lock control from the sauna sharing device 100. The sauna facility 300 also has a thermometer, hygrometer, sensors, etc., and also has a communication function that transmits information such as "sauna room temperature, sauna room humidity, cold bath temperature, availability" to the sauna sharing device 100 in real time. The sauna sharing system 1 may also have a payment function that pays a reward to the provider of the sauna facility 300 according to the use by the user 200.

With this sauna sharing system 1, a platform for sauna users 200 and sauna facility providers 300 can be constructed, and a sauna sharing system, sauna sharing method, and program for sharing sauna information can be provided.

[Functional configuration]
The functional configuration of the sauna sharing system 1 will be described with reference to Fig. 2. The sauna sharing system 1 includes a sauna sharing device 100 and a user terminal 50 communicably connected to the sauna sharing device 100 via a network 3. Although not shown in Fig. 2, the sauna sharing device 100 is capable of communicating with the sauna facility 300 via the network 3 as necessary. The sauna sharing device 100 is not limited to an actual device, and may be a virtual device. The sauna sharing system 1 may also include other terminals, devices, etc. In this case, the sauna sharing system 1 performs the processes described below using the sauna sharing device 100, the user terminal 50, and/or other terminals and devices.

The sauna sharing device 100 is a computer or personal computer with server functions managed by an administrator who provides the sauna sharing system 1, and is connected to the above-mentioned multiple user terminals 50, sauna facility 300, and other terminals and devices via a network 3 such as a public line network so that data can be communicated between them, and transmits and receives the necessary data and performs various processes.

The sauna sharing device 100 may be realized, for example, by one computer, or by multiple computers, such as a cloud computer. In this specification, a cloud computer may refer to either a computer that uses any computer in a scalable manner to perform a specific function, or a computer that includes multiple functional configurations to realize a system and uses the functions in any combination.

The sauna sharing device 100 includes a control unit (not shown) such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit), GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), RAM (Random Access Memory), ROM (Read Only Memory), and a communication unit (not shown) such as a device for enabling communication with other terminals and devices, for example, a Wi-Fi (Wireless-Fidelity) compatible device conforming to IEEE802.11. The sauna sharing device 100 also includes a memory unit (not shown) such as a data storage unit using a hard disk, semiconductor memory, storage medium, memory card, etc. The sauna sharing device 100 also includes a processing unit (not shown) such as various devices for executing various processes.

In the sauna sharing device 100, the control unit loads a specific program and cooperates with the communication unit, memory unit, and processing unit to realize a user data memory unit 101, a facility information memory unit 102, a reservation reception unit 103, and a lock control unit 104.

The user terminal 50 is a mobile terminal such as a smartphone or tablet terminal carried by the user 200, a wearable terminal such as a head-mounted display such as smart glasses, a personal computer, etc., and is connected to the sauna sharing device 100 described above via the network 3 so as to be able to communicate data, and transmits and receives necessary data and performs various processes.

The user terminal 50 includes a terminal control unit 51 including a CPU, GPU, RAM, ROM, etc., similar to the control unit in the sauna sharing device 100 described above. The terminal 50 also includes an input/output unit 52 including an input/output device for inputting and outputting data, images, audio, etc. The user terminal 50 also includes a communication unit 53 including a device for enabling communication with the sauna sharing device 100.

[Sauna sharing processing]
The sauna sharing process executed by the sauna sharing device 100 and the user terminal 50 will be described with reference to Fig. 3. Fig. 3 is a diagram showing a flowchart of the sauna sharing process executed by the sauna sharing device 100 and the user terminal 50. The process executed by each of the above-mentioned units will be described together with this process. Note that, although Fig. 2 illustrates the user data storage unit 101, the facility information storage unit 102, the reservation reception unit 103, and the lock control unit 104 as operating only on the sauna sharing device 100, these functions may operate on the user terminal 50 in cooperation with the input/output unit 52 and the communication unit 53 by the terminal control unit 51 of the terminal 50 reading a predetermined program.

First, the user 200 inputs user data of the user 200 via the input/output unit 52 of the user terminal 50 and transmits it to the sauna sharing device 100 (step S301). Here, the user data is data about the user 200 who uses the sauna sharing system 1. As mentioned above, the user data includes information such as the user's 200 "name, age (date of birth), gender, facility information used, favorite facility information," etc. It may also include data related to payment by credit card, electronic money, etc.

Next, the user data storage unit 101 of the sauna sharing device 100 receives the user data of the user 200 (step S302).

The user data storage unit 101 stores the received user data (step S303). This user data storage process may be performed in advance by the user 200, or may be performed when making the first reservation for the sauna facility 300. The user data storage unit 101 is also assumed to store data for multiple users 200.

Next, the facility information storage unit 102 of the sauna sharing device 100 receives the facility information (step S304). Here, the facility information is information about the sauna facility 300 that can be used in the sauna sharing system 1. As described above, the facility information includes information such as the sauna facility 300's "name, address, provider, size, stove type, whether or not there is a cold bath, whether or not there is a rest area, sauna items, and usage fee." It may also include information that should be obtained in real time, such as "sauna room temperature, sauna room humidity, cold bath temperature, and availability."

The facility information storage unit 102 stores the received facility information (step S305). Here, the facility information storage process is described as steps S304 and S305, but it may be performed whenever the provider of the sauna facility 300 registers the facility information in the sauna sharing system 1, or may be performed at a timing set by the administrator providing the sauna sharing system 1.

Next, the user 200 specifies a time from the user terminal 50 and transmits reservation data for reserving the sauna facility 300 (step S306). The reservation data includes necessary information such as the name of the sauna facility 300 to be reserved and the desired date and time to be reserved.

The reservation reception unit 103 of the sauna sharing device 100 receives the reservation data (step S307).

The reservation reception unit 103 accepts the reservation from the user 200 based on the received reservation data (step S308). By accepting the reservation, the availability information of the sauna facility 300 is updated, and the facility information is updated so that a reservation from another user cannot be accepted during the reservation time of the user 200.

Figure 8 is an example of a screen that displays the location of the sauna facility 300 on a map on the user terminal 50. The sauna sharing system 1 displays a map of the area around the user's current location or a specified area to the user 200, and allows the user to select and reserve a sauna facility by specifying a location on the map.

Figure 9 shows an example of a screen that displays information about a sauna facility 300 selected on a map on the user terminal 50. By having the user 200 select a sauna facility 300 on the map on the screen, facility information for the selected sauna facility 300 is displayed. Figure 9 shows an example of displaying a photo of the sauna facility, its name, address, price, sauna room temperature, sauna room humidity, cold bath temperature, sauna rating by users, and the number of reviews at the top of the screen.

Figure 10 shows an example of a screen for making a reservation for the sauna facility 300 on the user terminal 50. The user 200 can make a reservation for the sauna facility 300 by inputting the date, time, number of users, etc., and selecting the "Make reservation" button. Figure 10 shows an example in which the amount used at the time of use is also displayed. Here, the payment method for the amount used may also be set, such as credit card or electronic money.

Returning to FIG. 3, the lock control unit 104 of the sauna sharing device 100 controls the remote lock of the sauna facility 300 in response to the reservation of the user 200 (step S309). When the time for use arrives and the user 200 enters the sauna facility 300, a lock process is performed, and when use is completed, an open process is performed. The lock control unit 104 may receive a signal for opening or closing the remote lock from the user terminal 50 of the user 200 and perform the control.

Figure 6 is an example of a screen when performing lock processing using remote locking of the sauna facility 300 from the user terminal 50. When the usage time arrives and the user 200 enters the sauna facility 300, the lock processing can be performed from the user terminal 50 of the user 200. In Figure 6, by selecting the "Remote Lock Close" button at the bottom of the screen, a lock close signal is sent from the user terminal 50 to the lock control unit 104 of the sauna sharing device 100. Upon receiving the lock close signal, the lock control unit 104 performs lock processing (locking) of the sauna facility 300.

Figure 7 is an example of a screen when performing an open process using a remote lock on the sauna facility 300 from the user terminal 50. After starting use (after the user 200 locks the sauna facility 300), the open process can be performed from the user terminal 50 of the user 200. In Figure 7, by selecting the "Remote Lock Open" button at the bottom of the screen, a lock-open signal is sent from the user terminal 50 to the lock control unit 104 of the sauna sharing device 100. Upon receiving the lock-open signal, the lock control unit 104 performs the open process (unlock) of the sauna facility 300.

Returning to FIG. 3, finally, the lock control unit 104 of the sauna sharing device 100 checks whether the lock control has been completed. If not, the process returns to step S309. If completed, the sauna sharing process ends (step S310). Here, whether the lock control has been completed can be determined by whether the reservation time of the user 200 has passed and the remote lock of the sauna facility 300 has been opened. If the remote lock of the sauna facility 300 has not been opened even though the reservation time has passed, the open process may be performed to complete the lock control. Also, if it is deemed that the use of the sauna facility 300 has been illegally extended, a warning process may be performed on the user terminal 50 of the user 200. Conversely, if it is deemed that there is an emergency, such as the user 200 having collapsed, an emergency call may be made.

That's the sauna sharing process.

[Other functional configurations]
Other functional configurations of the sauna sharing system 1 will be described with reference to Fig. 4. Fig. 4 is a diagram showing another functional configuration of the sauna sharing system 1. In addition to the functional configuration of Fig. 2, in the sauna sharing device 100, the control unit reads a predetermined program, and thereby it is possible to realize a vital data receiving unit 105, a vital learning unit 106, an estimation unit 107, an environmental data extracting unit 108, an environmental learning unit 109, a recommendation unit 110, and the like in cooperation with the communication unit, the storage unit, and the processing unit.

The device also includes a vital data acquisition device 60 that acquires vital data of the user 200. The vital data acquisition device 60 is a device that includes a vital data acquisition unit 61, such as a wearable device carried by the user 200, and is connected to the sauna sharing device 100 described above via the network 3 so as to be able to communicate data, and transmits and receives necessary data and executes various processes. Here, the vital data acquisition device 60 is illustrated separately from the user terminal 50, but the user terminal 50 and the vital data acquisition device 60 may be the same device.

The vital data acquisition device 60 includes a vital data acquisition unit 61, such as a sensor that acquires vital data such as blood pressure, body temperature, heart rate, and electrocardiogram. The control unit 62 includes a CPU, GPU, RAM, ROM, etc., the input/output unit 63 includes an input/output device that inputs and outputs data, images, audio, etc., and the communication unit 64 includes a device that enables communication with the sauna sharing device 100.

[Vital data learning processing and recommendation processing]
Based on Fig. 5, the sauna sharing device 100 and the vital data acquisition device 60 execute a vital data learning process and a recommendation process will be described. Fig. 5 is a diagram showing a flowchart of the vital data learning process and the recommendation process executed by the sauna sharing system 1. In Fig. 4, the user data storage unit 101, the facility information storage unit 102, the reservation reception unit 103, the lock control unit 104, the vital data reception unit 105, the vital data learning unit 106, the estimation unit 107, the environmental data extraction unit 108, the environmental learning unit 109, and the recommendation unit 110 are illustrated as operating only on the sauna sharing device 100, but these functions may also operate on the user terminal 50 in cooperation with the input/output unit 52 and the communication unit 53 by the terminal control unit 51 of the terminal 50 reading a predetermined program. In addition, the vital data receiving unit 105, vital learning unit 106, estimation unit 107, environmental data extraction unit 108, environmental learning unit 109, and recommendation unit 110 may operate on the vital data acquisition device 60 in cooperation with the input/output unit 63 and communication unit 64 by the control unit 62 of the vital data acquisition device 60 reading a specified program.

When using a sauna, users can sometimes reach a state of ultimate pleasure. This state is known to sauna enthusiasts as "totono," and is also expressed as sauna trance. One theory behind this state of ultimate pleasure, or "totono," is that it occurs when the body shifts from a sympathetic nervous system-dominant state to a parasympathetic nervous system-dominant state, resulting in the secretion of beta-endorphins. Reaching this "totono" state is a major goal for sauna users.

Therefore, in the present invention, by using vital data learning processing and recommendation processing, sauna facilities that can lead to the ultimate pleasurable state, the sauna facility environment, the timing of use, the method of use, etc. are recommended to the user 200.

First, the vital data acquisition device 60 transmits the vital data of the user 200 acquired by the vital data acquisition unit 61 together with information on whether the user 200 is in the ultimate pleasure state to the sauna sharing device 100 (step S501). The vital data here includes blood pressure, body temperature, heart rate, electrocardiogram, etc. The information on whether the user 200 is in the ultimate pleasure state is necessary for learning purposes.

Figure 11 is an example of a screen that transmits information that the user 200 is in the ultimate pleasure state from the vital data acquisition device 60. When the user 200 is in the ultimate pleasure state, the vital data acquisition device 60 transmits information that the user 200 is in the ultimate pleasure state to the sauna sharing device 100 by selecting the "I'm in it!" button. If the button is not selected, the vital data is transmitted along with information that the user is not in the ultimate pleasure state.

Returning to FIG. 5, the vital data receiving unit 105 of the sauna sharing device 100 receives information on whether the user 200 is in an ultimate pleasure state and the vital data (step S502).

Next, when the user 200 is in the ultimate pleasure state, the vital data learning unit 106 of the sauna sharing device 100 learns the vital data from when the user starts using the sauna facility 300 until the time when the user reaches the ultimate pleasure state (step S503). By repeatedly learning steps S501 to S503 for the user 200, it is possible to predict what kind of vital data transitions are likely to lead to the ultimate pleasure state. Conversely, from the vital data when the user is not in the ultimate pleasure state, it is possible to learn what kind of vital data transitions will prevent the user from reaching the ultimate pleasure state.

Steps S501 to S503 are the vital data learning process, and in the flowchart in Figure 5, this is shown as one flowchart together with the recommendation process, but this part may be executed independently.

The recommendation process begins at step S504.

The vital data acquisition device 60 transmits a notification of the start of sauna use to the sauna sharing device 100 at the timing when the user 200 starts using the sauna facility 300 (step S504). Here, an example is described in which the vital data acquisition device 60 transmits the notification of the start of use, but the start of use may also be transmitted from the user terminal 50.

The sauna sharing device 100 receives a notification that the sauna has started to be used (step S505).

Next, the vital data acquisition device 60 transmits the vital data of the user 200 acquired by the vital data acquisition unit 61 to the sauna sharing device 100 (step S506). The vital data here includes blood pressure, body temperature, heart rate, electrocardiogram, etc. Here, since learning has already been performed, information on whether the user 200 is in the ultimate pleasure state is not necessary.

The vital data receiving unit 105 of the sauna sharing device 100 receives the vital data of the user 200 (step S507).

Next, the estimation unit 107 of the sauna sharing device 100 estimates whether the user 200 is in the ultimate pleasure state based on the learning result (step S508). If the user 200 is not in the ultimate pleasure state, the process returns to step S507 to continue receiving vital data, and if the user is in the ultimate pleasure state, the process proceeds to the next step S509.

When the user 200 is in the ultimate pleasure state, the environmental data extraction unit 108 of the sauna sharing device 100 extracts environmental data of the sauna facility 300 from when the user 200 starts using the sauna facility 300 to the time when the user 200 estimates that the user 200 is in the ultimate pleasure state (step S509). Here, the environmental data is environmental information of the sauna facility 300 used by the user 200, such as "sauna room temperature, sauna room humidity, cold bath temperature," etc. The environmental data extraction unit 107 may acquire the environmental data from the sauna facility 300, or may acquire the environmental data from the user terminal 50 or the vital data acquisition device 60 if the user terminal 50 or the vital data acquisition device 60 has a function capable of acquiring environmental data.

Next, the environmental learning unit 109 of the sauna sharing device 100 learns the environmental data from when the user 200 starts using the sauna facility 300 to the time when the ultimate pleasure state is predicted (step S510). This learning makes it possible to predict what kind of environmental data transition is likely to lead to the ultimate pleasure state.

Based on the learning results of step S510, the recommendation unit 110 of the sauna sharing device 100 recommends to the user 200 a sauna facility 300 and an environment of the sauna facility 300 that can bring the user 200 to the ultimate pleasure state (step S511). In the flow of FIG. 5, the recommendation process is shown in the flowchart, but the recommendation process may be performed at an independent timing.

Figure 12 is an example of a screen that displays recommended sauna facilities and usage methods for achieving the ultimate state of pleasure on the user terminal 50. Based on the learning results of step S510, for example, when the reservation screen of the sauna sharing system 1 is opened on the user terminal 50, it becomes possible to make a recommendation such as "Based on your previous 'totono' experience, in order for you to 'totono', we recommend that you do 'totono' at 'AOSHIMA SAUNA CLUB', where the sauna room temperature is 90°C, the sauna room humidity is 75%, and the cold bath temperature is 16.5°C, and repeat '3 sets' of 10 minutes in the sauna, 2 minutes in the cold bath, and 5 minutes in the rest period!".

Figure 13 is an example of a screen that displays the recommended timing and method of use on the vital data acquisition device 60 to achieve the ultimate pleasure state. Based on the learning results of step S510, for example, when starting to use the sauna facility 300, the vital data acquisition device 60 can display "To get into the right state: 1. 10 minutes in the 90°C sauna, 2. 2 minutes in the 16.5°C cold bath, 3. 5 minutes of rest, and repeat steps 1. to 3. three times." and an alarm can be set, making it possible to use the sauna facility 300 in a way that is likely to lead to the ultimate pleasure state.

Returning to FIG. 5, the vital data acquisition device 60 checks whether the user 200 has finished using the sauna (step S512). If the user has not finished, the process returns to step S506 to transmit the vital data, and if the user has finished, the process proceeds to the next step S513.

When the sauna use is to be ended, the vital data acquisition device 60 transmits a message to the sauna sharing device 100 indicating that the sauna use is to be ended (step S513). Here, an example is described in which the vital data acquisition device 60 transmits a message indicating that the sauna use is to be ended, but the user terminal 50 may also transmit a message indicating that the sauna use is to be started.

Finally, the sauna sharing device 100 receives a notification that sauna use has ended (step S514).

In this way, the recommendation process allows the user 200 to learn about the sauna facility 300 that will help them feel "in tune" and how to use the sauna, which can increase the utilization rate of the sauna facility and improve the satisfaction of the user 200.

This concludes the vital data learning process and recommendation process.
