<First Embodiment>
[Outline of communication system]
An overview of a communication system according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a configuration of a communication system S according to the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the communication system S includes a mobile terminal 1 and a communication terminal 2 that can communicate with the mobile terminal 1 via a mobile phone network N that is a communication network.

  The mobile terminal 1 is a wearable terminal used by, for example, a child (hereinafter also referred to as “user”). Specifically, the mobile terminal 1 is a wristwatch type terminal that is worn on a child's arm (specifically, a wrist). The mobile terminal 1 includes a display unit 12 on which a display screen and a touch panel are superimposed, and a belt 18 for fixing the mobile terminal 1 to the wrist. The child views the display screen of the display unit 12 or performs an input operation via the touch panel while appropriately rotating or vertically moving the arm on which the mobile terminal 1 is attached to the wrist. The mobile terminal 1 has the function of a mobile phone by itself, and a child can make a call or send / receive mail using the mobile terminal 1.

  The communication terminal 2 is a terminal used by a parent of a child who is a user of the mobile terminal 1. The communication terminal 2 is an arbitrary terminal having a communication function, such as a smartphone, a mobile phone, and a computer, and transmits / receives information to / from the mobile terminal 1 via the mobile phone network N. In the communication terminal 2, a mode in which a parent executes an operation in cooperation with the mobile terminal 1 can be selected.

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the display unit 12 of the mobile terminal 1. The mobile terminal 1 can switch the content displayed on the display unit 12 according to the operation mode.
FIG. 2A shows a state in which a clock is displayed. When the user touches the dial of the clock, the menu screen shown in FIG. When the user selects one mode from a plurality of modes displayed on the menu screen, the mobile terminal 1 activates a time-related function such as a screen for making a call (FIG. 2C) and a timer. Screen (FIG. 2 (d)), a screen for sending a message by e-mail (FIG. 2 (e1)), and a screen for displaying an operation history (FIG. 2 (f)).

  In the screen for sending mail shown in FIG. 2 (e1), when a destination (“papa”, “mama”, etc. in FIG. 2 (e1)) is selected, 1 as shown in FIG. 2 (e2). One or more canned sentences are displayed. The user of the mobile terminal 1 can transmit a message including a fixed sentence by touching the displayed fixed sentence. The portable terminal 1 is assumed to be used by a child, for example, but by displaying a fixed phrase, even a child can easily send a message by e-mail. 2 (e1) and 2 (e2) can be displayed in any order. When mail transmission is selected on the screen shown in FIG. 2 (b), the screen shown in FIG. 2 (e2) is displayed at that time. The standard text shown may be displayed, and when a single standard text is selected from the displayed standard text, the transmission destination selection screen of FIG. 2 (e1) may be displayed.

  FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram for explaining an operation in which the selected fixed sentence is transmitted. The mobile terminal 1 is connected to the mobile phone network N via a wireless line. The mobile terminal 1 can send and receive messages to and from the communication terminal 2 via the mobile phone network N.

The user of the mobile terminal 1 can transmit the selected fixed phrase to the communication terminal 2 by touching one of the fixed phrases while one or more fixed phrases are displayed on the screen. . The mobile terminal 1 according to the present embodiment can select and display a fixed sentence from a large number of fixed sentence candidates according to the state of the mobile terminal 1 or the user of the mobile terminal 1. Since the portable terminal 1 selects an appropriate fixed phrase according to the state of the portable terminal 1 or the user of the portable terminal 1, the user can simply touch the displayed fixed sentence without performing a complicated operation. By the operation, a message suitable for the user's condition can be transmitted.
Hereinafter, the configuration and operation details of the mobile terminal 1 will be described.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of the mobile terminal 1. The mobile terminal 1 includes a communication IF unit 11, a display unit 12, a state detection unit 13, a storage unit 14, and a control unit 15.

The communication IF unit 11 is a wireless communication interface for connecting to the mobile phone network N, and includes a modulation / demodulation circuit, a high frequency circuit, and an antenna.
The display unit 12 is a liquid crystal display, for example, and can display various screens shown in FIG. 2 under the control of the control unit 15.

  The state detection unit 13 is a sensor that detects the state of the mobile terminal 1. The state detection unit 13 includes, for example, an acceleration sensor, a temperature sensor, and a position sensor that acquires latitude / longitude information from a GPS (Global Positioning System). The state detection unit 13 outputs an electrical signal (hereinafter referred to as “state signal”) corresponding to the detected state of the mobile terminal 1.

  The storage unit 14 includes a nonvolatile memory (for example, ROM) and a volatile memory (for example, RAM). The storage unit 14 stores a program executed by the control unit 15 and various data generated when the control unit 15 executes the program. In addition, the storage unit 14 stores one or more fixed sentences in association with each of a plurality of state types of the user of the mobile terminal 1.

  FIG. 5 is a table showing an example of fixed phrases stored in the storage unit 14. In the tables shown in FIG. 5A and FIG. 5B, “state” indicates the state type of the user of the mobile terminal 1, and “standard text” indicates the fixed form of the message corresponding to each state type. Indicates a sentence. For example, in the table shown in FIG. 5A, when the child who is the user is in a state of “arriving at school”, the storage unit 14 sends the fixed message of the message transmitted by the mobile terminal 1 in that state. Indicates that he has remembered the sentence “I got to school” as a candidate.

  The table shown in FIG. 5B shows an example in which the storage unit 14 stores a plurality of fixed phrases in association with each state type. When a child is in school, the message that the child may send is not necessarily one. Therefore, as illustrated in FIG. 5B, the storage unit 14 may store a plurality of fixed phrases that the user may use in association with each state type.

  In addition, the storage unit 14 may store history information indicating the number of times each fixed sentence is transmitted within the most recent predetermined period in association with the fixed sentence. Thus, the memory | storage part 14 memorize | stores historical information, and the portable terminal 1 can select and display a fixed phrase with high transmission frequency preferentially.

  Furthermore, the memory | storage part 14 may memorize | store the log | history information which shows the frequency | count that each fixed sentence was transmitted within the latest predetermined period for every other party who transmitted the fixed sentence. By doing in this way, the portable terminal 1 becomes possible [a user can select easily the fixed phrase suitable for the other party who transmits a message].

  Moreover, the memory | storage part 14 may memorize | store the historical information which shows the place where the fixed sentence was transmitted, the state of the portable terminal 1 at the time of transmission, and the date which transmitted the fixed sentence in association with each fixed sentence. By doing in this way, since the portable terminal 1 can preferentially display the fixed phrase transmitted in the past on the same conditions based on a user's present location, the state of the portable terminal 1, and the date and time. Thus, it becomes possible to easily select a fixed phrase suitable for the user's condition.

  FIG. 6 is a table showing a second example of the fixed phrases stored in the storage unit 14. The table shown in FIG. 6 indicates that the storage unit 14 stores fixed phrases in association with the place and the time zone. Thus, it is suitable for the case where the content of the message which the portable terminal 1 should transmit changes with a time slot | zone that the memory | storage part 14 memorize | stores a fixed phrase in relation to a time and a time slot | zone.

  The storage unit 14 may store the attributes of the fixed sentence in association with the fixed sentence. For example, the storage unit 14 stores an attribute “location” in association with a fixed sentence including information indicating a location, and stores an attribute “time” in association with an fixed sentence including information indicating a time. .

  Moreover, the memory | storage part 14 may memorize | store a fixed phrase in association with the destination which the portable terminal 1 transmits a message. For example, it may be preferable that the message transmitted to the mother and the message transmitted to the father are different in style and content. Since the storage unit 14 stores the standard text in association with the destination, the mobile terminal 1 can easily transmit a message suitable for the destination person.

  When storing the fixed sentence in association with the destination, the storage unit 14 may store a destination determined for each type of user status. By doing in this way, for example, when the user's state type indicates “school”, the mobile terminal 1 transmits a message “I got to school” to the mother, and the user state type is When “school” is indicated, it is possible to transmit the message to the other party suitable for each state, such as sending a message “Please come to pick me up” to the father.

  A method for storing the fixed sentence in the storage unit 14 is arbitrary. For example, the memory | storage part 14 memorize | stores a predetermined fixed phrase at the time of the portable terminal 1 being manufactured. The storage unit 14 may store a fixed sentence created on the operation screen of the mobile terminal 1 and a fixed sentence received from another terminal (for example, the communication terminal 2). In addition, when a message that is not stored as a fixed sentence is transmitted from the mobile terminal 1, the storage unit 14 stores the transmitted message as a new fixed sentence in association with the state of the user when the message is transmitted. May be. By doing in this way, the number of the fixed sentences which a user can use can be increased easily.

  FIG. 7 is a table showing a third example of the fixed phrases stored in the storage unit 14. In the table shown in FIG. 7, fixed sentences are classified for each state acquisition method. The state acquisition method includes a method of using position information acquired from GPS, a method of using information indicating the state of the mobile terminal 1 detected by the state detection unit 13, and time information acquired from GPS or a clock built in the mobile terminal 1. Can be divided into methods. The portable terminal 1 can display a plurality of fixed phrases as candidates by combining these plurality of methods.

  Returning to FIG. 4, the control unit 15 is, for example, a CPU, and controls each unit of the mobile terminal 1 by executing a program stored in the storage unit 14. The control unit 15 functions as the specifying unit 151, the selection unit 152, the instruction acquisition unit 153, and the communication unit 154.

  The identifying unit 151 identifies which state the user of the mobile terminal 1 is in among a plurality of states. Specifically, the specifying unit 151 reads the state signal output from the state detection unit 13, and based on the value indicated by the state signal, the speed at which the mobile terminal 1 moves, the temperature of the mobile terminal 1, and the mobile terminal 1 Identify the location. The identifying unit 151 identifies the user's state based on any of the plurality of state signals output by the state detecting unit 13.

  For example, when the state signal indicating the position indicates the position of the school where the child who is the user attends, the specifying unit 151 specifies that the child is in the school. When the state signal indicating the position changes from the state indicating the position other than the school position to the state indicating the school position, the specifying unit 151 specifies that the child has arrived at the school. When the child does not wear the portable terminal 1 on the wrist in the school, the specifying unit 151 indicates that the state signal indicating the position indicates the school position, and the state signal indicating the temperature indicates a room temperature lower than the body temperature. If so, identify that the child is in school.

  Further, the specifying unit 151 is a moving unit such as an automobile, a bicycle, a walk, or a train based on at least one of the vibration amount (vibration intensity), the vibration frequency, or the vibration pattern detected by the state detection unit 13. May be specified. The identifying unit 151 indicates that the state signal indicating the speed at which the mobile terminal 1 moves indicates a speed that is equal to or higher than the speed of the bicycle (for example, 20 km / h or more), and the status signals indicating the positions are A station and B station. May be specified as being in a train. The rules for specifying the state of the user of the mobile terminal 1 by combining the plurality of state signals by the specifying unit 151 can be set by the communication terminal 2 via the communication IF unit 11, for example.

  The specifying unit 151 may specify the state of the user of the mobile terminal 1 when the communication unit 154 receives a predetermined message from the communication terminal 2. For example, the specifying unit 151 specifies the state when the communication unit 154 receives a message for confirming the state of the user of the mobile terminal 1 from the communication terminal 2.

  The specifying unit 151 may specify a scheduled time when the user of the mobile terminal 1 can make a call when the user cannot make a call. For example, it is assumed that the state of the user of the mobile terminal 1 is on a train. In this case, the specifying unit 151 specifies the time when the user gets off based on the position information acquired using the GPS, the train operation time information, and the name of the station where the user is scheduled to get off. In this case, for example, the specifying unit 151 accesses an external server holding a train timetable via the communication unit 154 and specifies the time when the user gets off. The specifying unit 151 notifies the selecting unit 152 of the specified scheduled time.

  The selection unit 152 selects a fixed phrase corresponding to the state specified by the specifying unit 151 from a plurality of fixed phrases stored in the storage unit 14. For example, when the five types of fixed phrases shown in FIG. 5A are stored in the storage unit 14, the selecting unit 152 specifies that the specifying unit 151 is in a state where the user of the mobile terminal 1 has arrived at school. Then, the standard sentence “I got to school” is selected. Thus, when the user's state changes, the selection unit 152 selects a fixed phrase corresponding to the changed state. As illustrated in FIG. 6, when a location and a time zone are set as a user state, the selection unit 152 corresponds to a state type that matches the position and time of the mobile terminal 1 detected using, for example, GPS. Select a fixed phrase.

  When history information is stored in the storage unit 14, the selection unit 152 selects a fixed phrase based on the history information. Specifically, the selection unit 152 preferentially selects a fixed phrase that is frequently transmitted in the most recent predetermined period. Based on the location, state, or current date and time of the mobile terminal 1 specified by the specifying unit 151, the selection unit 152 may preferentially select a fixed phrase that has been transmitted in the past under the same conditions as these. Good.

  The selection unit 152 may select a fixed sentence based further on a word included in the message received by the communication unit 154 from the communication terminal 2. For example, when the message received from the communication terminal 2 by the communication unit 154 includes a word for inquiring about a place “where?”, The selection unit 152 selects a fixed phrase including a word related to the place, and performs communication. When the message received by the unit 154 from the communication terminal 2 includes a word for inquiring the time “when?”, The selection unit 152 selects a fixed sentence including a word related to time.

  Further, the selection unit 152 is based on the relationship between the attribute of the fixed phrase stored in the storage unit 14 in association with the fixed phrase and the attribute of the word included in the message received by the communication unit 154 from the communication terminal 2. A fixed phrase may be selected. For example, when the message received by the communication unit 154 from the communication terminal 2 includes a word for inquiring about the location “where?”, The selection unit 152 determines that the attribute of the message is a message related to “location”. , Select a fixed phrase with the attribute “location”.

  When the storage unit 14 stores a fixed phrase in association with the destination, the selection unit 152 selects a fixed phrase corresponding to the user's state specified by the specifying unit 151 and corresponding to the destination selected by the user. May be. For example, the selection unit 152 selects a fixed phrase stored in association with the mother when the destination to which the message is transmitted in the state where the user has arrived at the school is the mother. In the case where the storage unit 14 stores mail texts transmitted in the past, the selection unit 152 may select mail texts transmitted in the past as destinations to which messages are transmitted as standard texts. In this case, the selection unit 152 may preferentially select a fixed phrase that has been transmitted to the selected destination in the past with reference to history information corresponding to the designated transmission destination.

  The selection unit 152 may select a fixed phrase used for notification of the time when the scheduled departure time of the user is acquired from the specifying unit 151. When such a standard sentence is selected, the selection unit 152 combines the scheduled departure time acquired from the specifying unit 151 and the standard sentence stored in the storage unit 14, for example, “A. You may create a message saying "You'll get to the station."

  Further, the selection unit 152 may select a fixed phrase based on the state of the mobile terminal 1 at the time of receiving an incoming call. In this case, the selection unit 152 may select a fixed phrase on condition that an incoming call from a preset partner is received.

  The instruction acquisition unit 153 displays a screen for receiving an input of a user instruction on the display unit 12 and acquires an instruction input by the user on the displayed screen. For example, the instruction acquisition unit 153 displays the menu screen illustrated in FIG. 2B and acquires an instruction regarding which function is to be executed among a plurality of functions displayed on the menu screen. When the instruction acquisition unit 153 acquires an instruction to send an email while the menu screen of FIG. 2B is displayed, the instruction acquisition unit 153 displays a screen for selecting a transmission destination illustrated in FIG. When the transmission destination is selected, the instruction acquisition unit 153 displays the fixed phrase selected by the selection unit 152.

  When there is only one standard sentence selected by the selection unit 152, the instruction acquisition unit 153 displays a single standard sentence selected by the selection unit 152 on the display unit 12 and a transmission button for acquiring a transmission instruction Is displayed. The instruction acquisition unit 153 acquires a transmission instruction from the user by detecting that the user has touched the transmission button. When there are a plurality of standard sentences selected by the selection unit 152, the instruction acquisition unit 153 displays a list of a plurality of standard sentences as shown in FIG. The instruction acquisition unit 153 acquires an instruction from the user to transmit the touched fixed phrase by detecting that the user has touched any one of the fixed phrases.

  The instruction acquisition unit 153 may display the standard text selected by the selection unit 152 on the display unit 12 and may display a screen for editing the standard text to acquire a message including the standard text after editing. The instruction acquisition unit 153 may display a screen for creating a new message (free text) and acquire the created message. When the edited or created message is transmitted via the communication unit 154, the instruction acquisition unit 153 stores the message as a standard sentence in the storage unit 14 in association with the state of the user when the message is transmitted. Also good.

  The instruction acquisition unit 153 may cause the display unit 12 to display a screen including an icon image for acquiring a user instruction when the specifying unit 151 detects that the user's state has changed. For example, the instruction acquisition unit 153 displays an icon image for message transmission in order to prompt the user to transmit a message to the communication terminal 2 when the state of the user changes to a state of arrival at school. Display. When the instruction acquisition unit 153 detects that the user has pressed the icon image, the instruction acquisition unit 153 displays the fixed phrase selected by the selection unit 152 on the display unit 12.

  The instruction acquisition unit 153 may cause the display unit 12 to display a screen including an icon image for acquiring a user instruction when the user state satisfies a predetermined condition. For example, the instruction acquisition unit 153 is urged to transmit a message for notifying that the mobile terminal 1 cannot answer a call when the mobile terminal 1 receives an incoming call from the communication terminal 2 in a state where the user cannot make a call. , Display an icon image for message transmission. In this case, when the instruction acquisition unit 153 detects that the user has touched the icon image, the selection unit 152 selects a fixed phrase with a content such as “I can't answer the phone now, I'll call you later” To do.

  When the instruction acquisition unit 153 acquires an instruction to transmit a fixed sentence, the communication unit 154 transmits a message including the fixed sentence selected by the selection unit 152 to the communication terminal 2 via the communication IF unit 11. The message transmitted by the communication unit 154 reaches the communication terminal 2 via the mobile phone network N, and the parent who is the user of the communication terminal 2 can view the message. The communication unit 154 may transmit information indicating the user state together with a message including a fixed sentence. For example, the communication unit 154 transmits the positional information acquired using the GPS together with the message so that the parent who is the user of the communication terminal 2 can more accurately grasp the state of the child who is the user of the mobile terminal 1. become. The communication unit 154 may transmit information indicating that the user is on the vehicle together with the message.

  When the specifying unit 151 specifies the scheduled time when the user can talk, the communication unit 154 transmits a message including the specified scheduled time. When the communication unit 154 receives an incoming call from the communication terminal 2, for example, “I am on the train now. I plan to arrive at A station around 5:30 pm”. A message including a scheduled time may be transmitted.

  In addition, the communication unit 154 receives a message from the communication terminal 2. For example, the communication unit 154 receives a message for the user of the communication terminal 2 to confirm the state of the user of the mobile terminal 1.

  The communication unit 154 can also receive a fixed phrase for registration from the communication terminal 2. For example, the communication unit 154 receives a fixed phrase for registration associated with information indicating the type of user state. When the communication unit 154 receives the registration standard sentence, the communication unit 154 stores the registration standard sentence in the storage unit 14 in association with the type of the user state associated with the received registration standard sentence. In this way, a parent using the communication terminal 2 can easily register a fixed phrase including information that the child wants to provide.

  In the above description, the portable terminal 1 is a watch-type terminal attached to a child's wrist. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the portable terminal 1 may be a wearable terminal that can be worn on a child's neck via a string or the like. Even in such a wearable terminal, it is possible to appropriately detect a change in the means for moving a child who is a user of the wearable terminal. As described above, various types of wearable terminals can be applied as the mobile terminal 1.

[Flowchart of operation of portable terminal 1]
FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of a flowchart of the operation of the mobile terminal 1. FIG. 8 shows an operation in which the mobile terminal 1 transmits a message including a fixed phrase corresponding to the state of the user of the mobile terminal 1 at that time in response to the mobile terminal 1 receiving a message from the communication terminal 2. It is a flowchart of. The identifying unit 151 monitors whether a message has been received from the communication terminal 2 (S10). If the identifying unit 151 determines that the message has been received, the state of the mobile terminal 1 is identified based on the state signal output from the state detecting unit 13 (S11).

  Here, the specifying unit 151 may specify the state at the timing when the message is received, may specify the state at the timing after the operation of browsing the message, and the user of the mobile terminal 1 performs a reply operation to the message. The state may be specified at the timing. The specifying unit 151 may specify the state by periodically storing the state of the mobile terminal 1 in the storage unit 14 and reading out the state stored in the storage unit 14 at any of the above timings.

If the selection unit 152 determines in S12 that a plurality of fixed phrases is not stored, the selection unit 152 proceeds to S14 without proceeding to S13.

  In S <b> 14, the instruction acquisition unit 153 displays a screen for allowing the user to input an instruction as to whether or not to edit the fixed phrase on the display unit 12, and determines whether or not the user edits the fixed sentence. When the instruction acquisition unit 153 acquires an instruction to edit from the user, the instruction acquisition unit 153 displays a screen for editing the fixed phrase (S15). When the user edits the fixed phrase and creates a message, the instruction acquisition unit 153 transmits the edited message to the communication terminal 2 (S16).

  When the transmission of the message is completed, the instruction acquisition unit 153 displays “Do you want to save the transmitted message as a standard sentence?” On the display unit 12 (S17), and if the user selects to save, the message is displayed. In association with the state of the user at the time of transmission, the transmitted message is stored in the storage unit 14 as a fixed sentence. If the user selects not to save in S <b> 17, the instruction acquisition unit 153 ends the process.

  In S14, the instruction acquisition unit 153 does not acquire an instruction to edit the standard sentence and acquires an instruction to transmit without editing from the user (S19). When the instruction acquisition unit 153 acquires the standard sentence selected by the selection unit 152 in S13, It transmits to the communication terminal 2 (S20).

  FIG. 9 is a sequence diagram of an operation in which a user of the communication terminal 2 registers a fixed sentence. When the user of the communication terminal 2 activates the standard text registration mode using predetermined application software (S21), the communication terminal 2 transmits a registration request message to the mobile terminal 1.
