Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a personal identification system capable of surely and easily identifying an individual.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in order to manage the entrance and exit of people, for example, the entrance and exit of elderly people with dementia and patients (hereinafter referred to as patients) at homes, nursing homes and other facilities with demented elderly people, hospitals, etc. There was a monitoring staff assigned to check with a name tag, a passport or a permit to go out, a surveillance camera was installed at the entrance and exit to monitor with a centralized monitor, and a 24-hour attendant attended the management. However, in large facilities, there are entrances and exits at each location, and it is not possible to place surveillance personnel at all locations. In that respect, although monitoring personnel can be reduced by centralized monitor monitoring using surveillance cameras,
Equipment costs are high, and personal identification is difficult unless the name tag or face can be recognized. Even if accompanied by 24 hours, it is difficult to continue for a long time.

Similarly, in order to manage the entry and exit of people, for example, in order to manage the entry and exit of passengers such as a sightseeing bus, the bus attendant confirms the number of passengers, or the passengers attach a name tag and the passenger confirms the name tag. I was managing it. In this way, for passengers getting on and off, the tour operator confirms the number of passengers, the name tag,
Or, it is done by the memory of the tour operator, which is not sufficient from the viewpoint of passenger satisfaction, and gives passengers an unpleasant feeling. Also,
When sightseeing with multiple tourist buses in a row, you may get the wrong bus.

Regarding the management of people's entrance and exit as described above, an ID card such as a name tag with a bar code or a magnetic card is used, and those held by an individual are read close to a reading device, or a wall or It is also performed to identify an individual by automatically reading by a reader attached to the gate. However, in the case of a name tag or a card, it may be forgotten or lost due to removal of clothes, etc., and in the method of bringing it closer to the reading device, the reading device has to read it every time it passes through. In addition, a plurality of people may overlap each other in front of the reading device, the reading device and the ID card may be far apart from each other, or the moving speed of the ID card may be high. There is also.

[0005]

As described above, since the conventional management of the entrance and exit of people depends on the managers such as monitoring staff and tour operators, the workload of these managers is large and the management method is also large. There was a problem that it was complicated. In addition, when using an ID card or the like for personal identification relating to the entry and exit of such a person, the identification cannot be performed unless the card is held, and the identification performance is exceeded because the reading performance limit is exceeded due to the positional relationship between the card and the reading device. There were some things that could not be done, and there was the problem of lack of certainty. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide an individual identification system that can reliably and easily identify an individual and can easily manage the entrance and exit of people.

[0006]

According to the present invention, a ring-type ID tag, which is attached to the toes of a person to be identified and which transmits identification information for personal identification when a question signal is received, and a signal installed on the floor. It has a mat in which an antenna for transmitting and receiving is embedded, and an interrogator for outputting an interrogation signal to the antenna in the mat to transmit the interrogation signal and obtaining identification information from the antenna. Further, instead of the ring type ID tag, it has an ankle ornament type ID tag which is attached to the ankle of the person to be identified and which transmits identification information for individual identification when receiving a question signal.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1A is a block diagram of a personal identification system for managing the behavior of a patient in a facility such as a hospital or at home according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 1B is an ID used in this personal identification system. It is a figure which shows the mode of attachment of a tag. 1 is a patient to be identified (here, only feet are shown), 2 is a patient 1
A ring-type ID tag that is attached to the necked part of the toe of a person like a ring that is usually used as a finger and transmits identification information for personal identification when receiving a question signal, and 3 is a floor surface in front of the door 15. The first door mat 4 installed on the floor and having the antenna embedded therein for transmitting and receiving signals is similarly a second door mat installed on the floor surface behind the door 15.

Reference numeral 5 is an interrogator for outputting an inquiry signal to the antennas in the door mats 3 and 4 and transmitting the inquiry signal and obtaining identification information from the antenna. Reference numeral 6 is management information for managing the behavior of the patient 1 in advance. When the identification information is output from the interrogator 5, the host computer that stores the management information of the corresponding patient 1 based on the identification information and outputs an alarm signal when the behavior violates the management information, 7 is an alarm It is an alarm device that issues an alarm when a signal is output. The host computer 6 and the alarm device 7 form an information processing device.

FIG. 2A is a perspective view of the ID tag 2,
2 (b) is a sectional view thereof, and FIG. 3 (a) is a door mat 3,
4 is a plan view and FIG. 3 (b) is a sectional view thereof. In FIG. 2, 20 is a ring-shaped exterior part made of an insulating material such as reinforced plastic, 21 is a coil-like antenna surrounding the exterior part 20, and is embedded in the exterior part 20. 22 is a question received by the antenna 21. The control unit detects a signal and outputs a response signal to the antenna 21. In FIG. 3, 30
Is a lower door mat in contact with the floor surface, 31 is an upper door mat on which a pedestrian such as the patient 1 steps, and 31 is an antenna provided between the lower door mat 30 and the upper door mat 31.

The antenna 21 and the control unit 22 of the ID tag 2
Is embedded in the exterior part 20, and the control part 22 is sealed by glass (not shown). And the control unit 2
2 includes a power conversion circuit (not shown), a transmission / reception circuit that performs signal modulation / demodulation, a storage circuit that stores identification information of the patient 1, and the like, and electromagnetic waves received by the antenna 21 are converted into power by the internal power conversion circuit. The control unit 22 operates by the conversion. The patient 1 is asked to wear the above-mentioned ID tag 2 in which identification information is written in advance on his toes as shown in FIG. 1 (b). The identification information to be written includes, for example, name, hospital room, disease name, doctor in charge, emergency contact information, and the like.

The ID tag 2 is attached to the toes of the patient 1 even if the ID tag is lowered from the neck or attached to the chest, but when the patient is, for example, an elderly person with dementia, forgetting or removing the ID tag. This is because, in some cases, the person may go out naked without even wearing clothes, and even in such a case, the purpose is to perform reliable personal identification.

Door mats 3 and 4 installed on the floor of each entrance and exit of the facility as shown in FIG. 1 are, for example, a lower door mat 30, an antenna 32, and an upper door mat 31 as shown in FIG.
It has a sandwich structure consisting of. Although the antenna 32 has a shape having a plurality of turns in this embodiment, it may have another shape such as a coil shape, and the antenna 32 may be embedded in the door mat by another embedding method. good.

Next, the operation of such a personal identification system will be described. The interrogator 5 constantly outputs the interrogation signal to the door mats 3 and 4, and the antenna 32 in the door mats 3 and 4 is used.
Sends this as an inquiry radio wave Ra. Patient 1 is now 1
When trying to go out through the door 15 at the floor exit, the ID tag 2 attached to the toe of the patient 1 and the antenna 32 of the door mat 3 are sufficiently close to each other, so that the interrogation radio wave Ra transmitted from the antenna 32 is transmitted. Will reach the ID tag 2.

The control unit 22 of the ID tag 2 uses the antenna 21.
When the inquiry signal Ra is received and the inquiry signal is detected, the identification information is read from the memory circuit to generate a response signal including this identification information, which is modulated and output to the antenna 21. The response signal is a digitally encoded signal that normally includes a sync signal and the data that follows it. In this way, the response signal is transmitted from the ID tag 2 as the response radio wave Rb. Then, the antenna 32 of the door mat 3 receives this response radio wave Rb and outputs it to the interrogator 5, and the interrogator 5 converts this into a response signal, and the identification information in the obtained response signal is unique to the door mat 3. Output to the host computer 6 together with the management number.

Next, the host computer 6 can specify the installation location of the door mat 3 from the door mats installed at the respective doorways by the control number obtained from the interrogator 5. Further, in the host computer 6, management information for managing the behavior of the patient 1 (for example, whether or not a notification of going out has been issued) is registered in association with the above identification information.

The output of the interrogator 5 causes the host computer 6 to display the identification information and the installation location of the door mat 3 and to extract the management information of the corresponding patient 1 based on the identification information. Then, when the submission of the notification of going out is not registered in this management information, it is determined that the behavior of the patient 1 violates the management information and an alarm signal is output. This alarm signal includes, for example, the name of the patient 1 and the installation location of the door mat 3. As a result, the alarm device 7 performs the display as shown in FIG. 1A and emits an alarm sound, so that it is possible to notify the monitoring personnel that the patient 1 is out without permission.

As described above, by attaching the ID tag 2 to the toes of the patient 1, there is no forgetting to attach or loss, and the ID tag 2 is attached to a hidden part such as the toes, which impairs the fashionability of clothes. Nor. In addition, since it is battery-less and sealed, it can be handled as easily as a ring that can be worn on the hand.
Further, unlike the name tag type ID tag, its attachment position is not affected by height and clothes, and the position of the ID tag 2 when the patient 1 is walking is limited to a certain range in the height direction. Will be.

Moreover, when walking, the feet temporarily remain stationary with respect to the floor surface, and a plurality of feet simultaneously with the antenna 32 of the door mat (for example, on the order of 10 ^-3 seconds).
There can be no overlap. Therefore, as in the conventional case, a plurality of people may overlap in front of the reader attached to the doorway or the distance between the reader and the ID tag may be large.
It is possible to reliably read the identification information of the ID tag 2 without exceeding the reading limit because the moving speed of the ID tag is high.

Further, in the above operation example, only the door mat 3 installed inside the door 15 is used as a certain installation point, but the door mat 4 installed outside the door 15 is also used to enter and exit the patient 1. Can also be managed. That is, when the identification information of the ID tag 2 is first detected from the antenna 32 of the door mat 3 and then the identification information is detected from the antenna 32 of the door mat 4, it means that the user has gone out of the door 15. If detected in the reverse order, it means that the vehicle has entered through the door 15. Therefore, by monitoring these with the host computer 6, it is possible to easily recognize the entrance and exit of the patient 1.

The above management can be performed by using such a method. For example, the schedule that the patient 1 goes to the examination room is registered in the management information of the host computer 6, and the door mat 3 provided inside and outside the examination room door indicates whether the patient 1 went to the examination room as scheduled. It is possible to monitor by 4 and issue an alarm if you do not go to the examination room.

In this embodiment, the installation location of the door mat is specified based on the control number unique to the door mat. However, each door mat is connected to the host computer 6 by a dedicated line, and a certain line is connected. When the identification information is sent, the installation location of the door mat may be specified based on the sent line. In this case, the number of lines is the number of door mats installed.

Further, although identification information such as name and disease name is written in the ID tag 2, it is sufficient if the patient 1 can be identified. Therefore, only the identification code is written as the identification information and the personal data corresponding to this identification code is stored in the host. Computer 6
You may register it at. Further, although the method of embedding the antenna 32 in the door mats 3 and 4 is adopted, the method of directly embedding the antenna on the floor surface may be used.

FIG. 4A shows another embodiment I of the present invention.
FIG. 4B is a diagram showing how the D tag is attached, and FIG. 4B is a diagram showing the main part of this ID tag. Reference numeral 2a is an ankle decoration type ID tag that is attached to the ankle of the patient 1 and operates in exactly the same manner as the ID tag 2. 20a is an exterior part made of an insulating material such as reinforced plastic or glass.
Reference numeral 1a is an antenna embedded in the exterior portion 20a, and 22a is a control unit.

The ID tag 2a can obtain the same effect as the ID tag 2 by attaching the exterior part 20a in which the antenna 21a and the control part 22a are embedded to a part of the chain of the ankle ornament. In addition, such an ankle ornament is easy to put on and take off, and men can hide it with pants, without impairing the fashionability of women.

FIG. 5 is a block diagram of a personal identification system according to another embodiment of the present invention, showing an example in which the present invention is applied to passenger entry / exit management in a transportation system such as a sightseeing bus. In FIG. 5 (a), 8 is a name tag case shape that a passenger wears, and a name tag type ID tag that operates in exactly the same manner as the ID tags 2 and 2a, 8a is a name tag case with a tag, and 8b is a passenger's name, etc. Is printed on the nameplate, 9 is the nameplate type I for passengers
It is a first interrogator that transmits an inquiry signal and receives the identification information of the ID tag 8 when the D tag 8 is prepared.

Reference numeral 10 is a host computer which is a first information processing device for storing the input passenger data and the identification information obtained by the interrogator 9 in an input / output medium which will be described later in a form of being associated with each other. A printer, which is an output device for printing a name tag based on data, is an input / output medium 12, such as a flexible disk or a memory card.

In FIG. 5 (b), 2b is an ankle ornament type ID tag similar to the ID tag 2a attached to the passenger's ankle,
3a is a first mat installed on the floor of the entrance / exit of the bus 16 similar to the example of FIG. 1, 4a is a second mat similarly installed on the floor inside the mat 3a, and 5a is a passenger's At the time of boarding acceptance, the inquiry signal is transmitted to receive the identification information from the ID tag 2b or 8, and when the passengers get on and off, the question signals are output to the antennas of the mats 3a and 4a. It is a second interrogator for transmitting the identification information from the antenna.

Further, 6a extracts the passenger data of the corresponding passenger from the input / output medium 12 based on the identification information obtained from the ID tag 8 when the passenger is accepted for boarding, and the ID 6a
The identification information obtained from the tag 2b is stored in association with the passenger data and the identification information of the ID tag 8, and the stored information and the mat 3 are stored when the passengers get on and off.
It is a touch panel computer which serves as a second information processing device for managing passengers getting on and off the bus 16 based on the identification information of the ID tag 2b obtained in a and 4a.

Next, the operation of such a personal identification system will be described. The interrogator 9, the host computer 10, and the printer 11 for inputting passenger data and preparing the ID tag 8 may be provided in the bus 16 which is a transportation facility, but are installed in the office of a travel agency here. The example will be described.

The clerk of the travel agency has an appropriate name tag case 8
Pick up a and bring it close to the interrogator 9. The interrogator 9 constantly transmits the interrogation radio wave from the antenna (not shown) as in the example of FIG. 1, and the ID attached to the name tag case 8a.
When the tag receives this inquiry radio wave, it generates a response signal containing identification information and sends this as a response radio wave. The interrogator 9 receives the response radio wave and outputs the obtained identification information to the host computer 10.

Next, the clerk looks at the passenger list and inputs passenger data to the host computer 10. This passenger data includes, for example, the passenger's name, course schedule, and bus number. By this data input, the host computer 10
Outputs the identification information of the name tag case 8a and the passenger data to the input / output medium 12, stores the identification information and the passenger data in the input / output medium 12 in a corresponding manner, and at the same time, the printer 11
Is controlled to print the name tag 8b. This name tag 8b has
For example, passenger names, sightseeing courses, travel agency names, etc. are printed.

Then, when the clerical worker puts the printed name tag 8b in the name tag case 8a, the name tag type ID tag 8 is obtained. By repeating such work for the number of people, all passenger IDs
Preparation of the input / output medium 12 for storing the tag 8 and passenger data is completed. The ankle decoration type ID tags 2b are prepared in advance for the number of people.

Next, the operation of receiving the information at the boarding place of the sightseeing bus 16 on the day of travel will be described with reference to FIG. First, the tour operator of the travel agency inserts the input / output medium 12 brought from the office into the touch panel computer 6a.

When the boarding reception is started, the passengers who arrive at the boarding place where the bus 16 is stopped hear the name and the name tag 8
Looking at the name of b, the ID tag 8 of the corresponding passenger is searched, and this is brought close to the interrogator 5a. The interrogator 5a constantly sends out an inquiry radio wave in the same manner as described above, and the ID tag 8 returns a response radio wave containing identification information in response to the inquiry radio wave. The interrogator 5a receives the response radio wave and outputs the obtained identification information to the touch panel computer 6a.

The touch panel computer 6a searches the input / output medium 12 based on the obtained identification information, reads the passenger data of the corresponding passenger, and displays it. Next, the tour operator picks up an appropriate ID tag 2b and brings it close to the interrogator 5a. As a result, the same operation as described above is performed and the identification information of the ID tag 2b is output to the touch panel computer 6a.

The touch panel computer 6a collectively stores the passenger data thus obtained and the identification information of the ID tags 2b and 8. With this, passenger data, ID tag 2
This means that the b and the ID tag 8 are associated with each other.
Then, the tour operator passes the ID tags 2b and 8 to the passenger and asks them to attach them, for example, as shown in FIG. 5 (b). This completes the reception of one passenger, and repeats such reception for each passenger.

Since the touch panel computer 6a stores the data of the passengers whose acceptance has been completed, the attendant can confirm that the passengers who have not registered the passenger data although the passenger data are registered in the input / output medium 12, That is, passengers who have not arrived at the boarding place can be confirmed on the touch panel computer 6a.

Next, the operation when the passengers get on and off at a tourist spot will be described. When a passenger arrives at a tourist spot and approaches the entrance to get off the bus 16, the ID tag 2b attached to the foot of the passenger and the mat 4a are sufficiently close to each other, and the same thing as the example of FIG. Occur. That is,
The ID tag 2b returns a response radio wave including identification information for the inquiry radio wave transmitted from the antenna of the mat 4a.

The antenna of the mat 4a receives the response radio wave and outputs it to the interrogator 5a, and the interrogator 5a outputs the obtained identification information to the touch panel computer 6a. Then, the same thing happens on the mat 3a,
The identification information of the ID tag 2b is the touch panel computer 6
is output to a.

Since the touch panel computer 6a has obtained the identification information of the ID tag 2b in the order of the mats 4a and 3a, it determines that the passenger corresponding to the identification information has got off the bus. Further, when the passenger gets on the bus as shown in FIG. 5B, the identification information of the ID tag 2b is obtained in the reverse order to the above, and thus it is determined that the passenger corresponding to the identification information has boarded the bus. To do.

As described above, since the passengers' entry / exit is automatically checked, the attendant can confirm the entry / exit of all passengers on the touch panel computer 6a. In addition, even if the passenger does not have the name tag type ID tag 8 that is usually attached to clothes or the like and the passenger does not have it, the ankle decoration type I
Since it can be done by the D tag 2b, reliable identification is possible.

As a result, the passengers can get on and off in a smart manner, so that the sightseeing time is increased and the passenger's free time is increased, and the sightseeing can be carried out without feeling the discomfort as before. In addition, in the present embodiment, it is assumed that a large number of unidentified persons to be identified change every trip.
The identification information written in the tags 2b and 8 is usually only the identification code.

Further, by embedding a pressure sensitive sensor in the mats 3a, 4a, it is possible to prevent an erroneous bus ride and an illegal passenger from boarding. That is, when a passenger or an unauthorized passenger on another bus not having the registered ID tag 2b steps on the mat 3a or 4a to get on the bus 16, the passenger is registered even though the pressure sensor detects the pressure. The identification information of the ID tag 2b cannot be obtained. In such a case, since the touch panel computer 6a emits an alarm sound, it is possible to detect an erroneous bus ride or an illegal passenger.

In the present embodiment, the installation area is used as a transportation means such as a tourist bus, the installation locations of the mats 3a and 4a are used as the entrances and exits of the passengers, and the passengers are the persons to be identified. It is also possible to use the installation location of the mat as the entrance and exit, and to make a student, employee, or visitor the identification target person, for example. Further, by embedding the antenna and the pressure-sensitive sensor on the floor surface thereof, the same effect can be obtained.

[0049]

According to the present invention, by using a ring type ID tag attached to the toes of a person to be identified, a mat in which an antenna is embedded, and an interrogator, the fashionability of clothes can be impaired. Since there is no forgetting or loss of the ID tag, and the positional relationship between the ID tag and the antenna is limited, the identification information of the ID tag can be reliably read, and personal identification can be performed easily and It can be done reliably. In addition, the installation of the mat does not depend on the width of the installation site, the structure of the wall, etc., and there is no need to modify the installation site, so that the identification system can be installed easily and at low cost.

Further, the ankle ornament type ID tag attached to the ankle of the person to be identified has the same effect as the ring type ID tag, and can be easily attached / detached and does not impair fashionability. it can.

By providing an information processing device,
When the behavior of the identification target person wearing the ID tag violates the management information, the information processing device gives an alarm, so that the behavior can be easily managed. For example, for monitoring in a facility such as a hospital. It is possible to reduce the labor cost of the above, and also to reduce the burden on the nurse in the general household or facility having the elderly with dementia, etc. Also, if you get permission to go out, it will not be checked by surveillance personnel, so it is possible to respond to individual software.

Further, by providing the first and second mats and the information processing device, it is possible to detect the entrance / exit of the person to be identified, so that the entrance / exit of the facility or the entrance / exit of the vehicle can be detected. Then, it is possible to easily recognize whether the person to be identified has come in or out of these.

Further, by providing the pressure-sensitive mat and the information processing device, if the identification information corresponding to the stored information cannot be obtained although the pressure-sensitive mat detects the pressure. As a warning is issued by the user, it is possible to prevent a person who does not wear a registered ID tag from passing through the installation point of the pressure-sensitive mat. For example, a pressure-sensitive mat can be installed at the entrance / exit of a sightseeing bus. If it is installed and the passengers wear the ID tag, it is possible to detect an erroneous passenger on the bus or an illegal passenger.

In addition, when a name tag type ID tag and an input / output medium in which the data of the identification target person and the identification information of the name tag type ID tag are stored are prepared in advance and the entrance to the identification target person's installation area is accepted. When the access control is performed by associating the identification information of the ankle decoration type ID tag with the identification information of the data and the name tag type ID tag, the ankle decoration type ID tag is used to enter and leave the installation area of the person to be identified. Since it can be detected automatically, the entrance / exit management of the person to be identified becomes smooth and easy, and the work burden on the manager can be reduced. In addition, until admission, it is managed with a name tag type ID tag with a name tag, and subsequent entrance and exit management is an ankle decoration type I
Since the D tag is used, it is possible to easily deal with an unspecified identification target person who changes each time he / she travels, such as a sightseeing bus.

Further, by embedding the antenna on the floor surface, the identification information of the ID tag can be surely read in the same manner as described above, and compared with the case where the mat is laid, the damage due to the passage of heavy objects or the mat is prevented. There is no possibility of being unreadable due to being removed.
