The control unit 11 detects an image silhouette (hereinafter referred to as a "person silhouette") from a plurality of captured images (moving images). A human silhouette can be detected, for example, by extracting a pixel range where the difference is relatively large using a time difference method that extracts the difference between images taken before and after the shooting time. The human silhouette may be detected by a background subtraction method that extracts the difference between a photographed image and a background image. Getting up, leaving the bed, falling down, and falling are detected from the detected human silhouette, the posture of the subject 70 (for example, standing, sitting, lying, etc.), and the relative position with respect to objects installed in the living room, such as the bed 60. These detections may be performed by a program processed by the CPU of the control unit 11, or may be performed by a built-in processing circuit. Furthermore, the present invention is not limited to this, and the server 20 may perform all or most of the recognition processing, and the control unit 11 may only transmit the photographed image to the server 20. When the control unit 11 recognizes any action, it transmits a notification that the action has occurred to the server 20 or the like as an event notification (alert) that notifies that a predetermined event has been detected. The event notification includes the name of the person 70, the room number, and the details of the event. The predetermined events notified by the event notification include falling asleep, abnormal slight body movements, etc. detected based on body movements detected by the body movement sensor 14. The control unit 11 operates based on a nurse call signal outputted from the nurse call unit (not shown) when a button of the nurse call unit (not shown) is pressed, and an audio signal converted into an electrical signal by the microphone 15. Nurse calls can be detected. A nurse call detected in this manner may also be included in the predetermined event.

The control unit 11 uses the router 17 to add an address for identifying itself as a transmission source and an address for identifying the server 20 as a transmission destination to the detection data, etc., and sends the data via the network 50. , and send it to the server 20.

The control unit 11 causes a part of the storage unit 12 to function as a ring buffer by continuously storing captured images of the latest predetermined time in the storage unit 12. The predetermined time may be, for example, 5 minutes. When the control unit 11 detects an event based on a photographed image, the control unit 11 notifies the event of the photographed image, for example, one minute before and after the time when the event was detected, from among the photographed images stored in the ring buffer for a predetermined period of time. The event notification can be included in the event notification and sent to the server 20.

The control unit 11 receives contact book data from the tablet terminal 100 provided in each room of the subject 70 through the Wi-Fi interface 18. The control unit 11 transmits the received contact book data to the server 20 via the router 17. Note that the tablet terminal 100 may be replaced by a PC (personal computer) or the like. The tablet terminal 100 will be described later.

The control unit 11 receives vital data from a measuring device that acquires the vital data of the subject 70 through the Bluetooth interface 19 . The control unit 11 transmits the received vital data to the server 20 as detection data or the like.

The control unit 11 posts a message addressed to the target person 70 to a message board for each detection unit 10 including the control unit 11, which can be viewed and posted by members registered in advance by accessing the server 20. When a post is made, the router 17 receives the content of the post from the server 20 via the network 50. The control unit 11 uses, for example, a projector (not shown) included in the detection unit 10 to project the content of the received post onto a screen provided on the wall of the living room or the like so that the subject 70 can see the content.

FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a message board screen displayed on the staff terminal 40. A message board screen can be displayed on the staff terminal 40 by accessing the server 20 from the staff terminal 40 of the staff member 80 registered in advance as a member.

In the example of FIG. 6, the server 20 receives the event notification of Mr. A's "Wake up", and the "Wake up" event is displayed in the thread of the message board regarding Mr. A. In the message input field, a check box is displayed for selecting a destination to which the message posted in the message input field is to be notified. Any category or group such as the target person 70, medical staff, nursing staff, family members, etc. can be set in advance as destination candidates. In addition, in FIG. 5, it has been explained that one message board thread is created in association with the detection unit 10 corresponding to Mr. A, but a message board thread is created in association with each event and each post regarding Mr. A. You may also do so.

B in FIG. 5 shows the message board screen when staff B and staff C each posted from the staff terminal 40 in response to the "wake up" event in the message board thread of Mr. A. Among the checkboxes displayed in the message entry field posted by staff member B, checkboxes for target person 70, care staff, and family members are checked for selection. Therefore, as described above, the message content posted in the message input field is transmitted from the server 20 to the router 17 of the detection unit 10, and is transmitted to the screen, etc. installed on the wall of the living room by the projector included in the detection unit 10. projected on. For example, an e-mail or the like is sent to the terminals of the care staff and family members, and the e-mail includes a URL for accessing the message board, thereby guiding them to access the message board.

The control unit 11 transmits the telephone audio signal received by the router 17 to the speaker 16 to output it as audio. The control unit 11 converts the voice emitted by the target person 70 or the like in response to the telephone call received by the router 17 into an electrical signal converted by the microphone 15 as audio data, and transmits the received telephone call via the network 50 by the router 17.
