In the example of FIG. 2, the determination method of the vehicle related information is described together, but the determination method may not be stored in the table.
 図2で示したテーブルを用いて、情報変換部2が自車両の動きを変換データに変換する例を示すと、センサ1bが取得したふらつき度合Aをしきい値Pと比較し、ふらつき度合Aがしきい値P未満である場合には「左右にふらつかない」との変換データを選択する。一方、ふらつき度合Aがしきい値P以上である場合には「左右にふらつく」との変換データを選択する。さらに、ふらつき度合Aがしきい値P以上である状態が所定時間以上続く場合には「蛇行運転」との変換データを選択する。 An example in which the information conversion unit 2 converts the movement of the host vehicle into converted data using the table shown in FIG. 2 is compared with the threshold value P obtained by the sensor 1b. Is less than the threshold value P, the conversion data “Do not wobble from side to side” is selected. On the other hand, if the degree of fluctuation A is equal to or greater than the threshold value P, the conversion data of “fluctuate left and right” is selected. Furthermore, when the state where the degree of fluctuation A is equal to or greater than the threshold value P continues for a predetermined time or longer, the conversion data “meandering operation” is selected.
 また、センサ1bが取得した車間距離Bをしきい値Qと比較し、車間距離Bがしきい値Q未満である場合には「車間距離が短い」との変換データを選択する。一方、車間距離Bがしきい値Q以上である場合には「車間距離が長い」との変換データを選択する。また、自車両内の撮影映像を解析した結果、運転者が正面を向いていないと判断した場合には「脇見運転」との変換データを選択する。 Further, the inter-vehicle distance B acquired by the sensor 1b is compared with the threshold value Q, and if the inter-vehicle distance B is less than the threshold value Q, conversion data “the inter-vehicle distance is short” is selected. On the other hand, when the inter-vehicle distance B is equal to or greater than the threshold value Q, the conversion data “the inter-vehicle distance is long” is selected. In addition, as a result of analyzing the captured video in the own vehicle, if it is determined that the driver is not facing the front, the conversion data of “side looking driving” is selected.

The entertainment content generation unit 3 performs a plurality of conversions converted by the information conversion unit 2 as “movement of own vehicle”, “movement of surrounding vehicles”, “movement of people around the own vehicle”, and “movement of people in the passenger compartment”. Based on the data, the driving state of the driver of the own vehicle, the driving state of the driver of the surrounding vehicle, the state of the person around the own vehicle, and the state of the person in the passenger compartment are estimated based on the data. Based on each estimated state, an expression describing the driver's or person's emotion, psychology or movement is acquired from the database 4.
To explain with specific examples, the driver of the host vehicle is converted based on the converted data of “Driving while talking”, “Long distance between vehicles” and “Wakimi driving” converted as “Vehicle movement”. It is estimated that the driving state is “My paced driving”. An expression “niconico” that describes the driver's psychology is acquired from the database 4 based on the estimated “my pace driving”.
 また、エンタテイメントコンテンツ生成部3は、「空の状況」、「道路の状況」、「交通信号の状況」、「交通標識の状況」として情報変換部2が変換した複数の変換データに基づいて、表現データベース4と照合するための自車両の運転者が受ける印象を推定し、推定した各印象に基づいて運転者の感情あるいは心理を形容する表現をデータベース4から取得する。
 具体例を挙げて説明すると、「空の状況」として変換された「夜」および「雨」との変換データから運転者が「運転し難い」との印象を受けると推定する。推定した「運転し難い」に基づいて運転者の心理を形容する表現「ハラハラ」をデータベース4から取得する。
In addition, the entertainment content generation unit 3 is based on a plurality of conversion data converted by the information conversion unit 2 as “sky situation”, “road situation”, “traffic signal situation”, and “traffic sign situation”. The impression received by the driver of the host vehicle for collation with the expression database 4 is estimated, and an expression describing the driver's emotion or psychology is acquired from the database 4 based on each estimated impression.
To explain with a specific example, it is estimated that the driver receives the impression that “it is difficult to drive” from the converted data of “night” and “rain” converted as “sky situation”. Based on the estimated “difficult to drive”, an expression “Harahara” that describes the psychology of the driver is acquired from the database 4.
 その後、エンタテイメントコンテンツ生成部3は、データベース4から取得した形容表現から連想される概念を視覚的に示したイラストをエンタテイメントコンテンツとしてコンテンツデータベース5から取得する。 Thereafter, the entertainment content generation unit 3 acquires from the content database 5 as an entertainment content an illustration visually showing a concept associated with the description of the description acquired from the database 4.

In the following description, the in-vehicle information processing apparatus 100 displays on the in-vehicle display 8 whether to generate entertainment content in advance, whether to re-acquire data, whether to accumulate entertainment content, or not. It is assumed that whether or not to set is set (hereinafter referred to as setting conditions).
 まず車載情報処理装置100は、設定条件を参照し、エンタテイメントコンテンツを生成するか否か判定する(ステップST1)。エンタテイメントコンテンツを生成しない場合(ステップST1;NO)、処理を終了する。一方、エンタテイメントコンテンツを生成する場合(ステップST1;YES)、情報取得部1は、自車両データ、および自車両周辺データを取得する(ステップST2)。情報変換部2は、ステップST2で取得された自車両データおよび自車両周辺データから、自車両の動き、周辺車両の動き、車両周辺の人の動き、車室内の人の動き、空の状況、道路の状況、交通信号の状況、および交通標識の状況など、自車両の運転者が把握可能な車両関連情報を抽出する(ステップST3)。さらに、あらかじめ保有しているテーブルを参照して、ステップST3で抽出した車両関連情報に相当する変換データを取得する(ステップST4)。 First, the in-vehicle information processing apparatus 100 refers to the setting condition and determines whether to generate entertainment content (step ST1). If entertainment content is not generated (step ST1; NO), the process ends. On the other hand, when generating entertainment content (step ST1; YES), the information acquisition unit 1 acquires host vehicle data and host vehicle peripheral data (step ST2). The information conversion unit 2 determines the movement of the own vehicle, the movement of the surrounding vehicle, the movement of the person around the vehicle, the movement of the person in the vehicle interior, the situation of the sky, from the own vehicle data and the surrounding data of the own vehicle acquired in step ST2. Vehicle-related information that can be grasped by the driver of the host vehicle, such as road conditions, traffic signal conditions, and traffic sign conditions, is extracted (step ST3). Further, conversion data corresponding to the vehicle-related information extracted in step ST3 is acquired with reference to a table held in advance (step ST4).
 エンタテイメントコンテンツ生成部3は、ステップST4で変換された変換データに基づいて、表現データベース4と照合するための自車両または周辺車両の運転者の運転状態、同乗者または車外の人の状態を推定すると共に、車外環境から運転者が受ける印象を推定する(ステップST5)。さらにエンタテイメントコンテンツ生成部3は、推定した運転状態、人の状態、運転者が受ける印象に該当する形容表現が、表現データベース4に蓄積されているか否か判定を行う(ステップST6)。該当する形容表現が蓄積されていない場合(ステップST6;NO)、設定条件を参照し、再度自車両データおよび自車両周辺データを取得するか否か判定を行う(ステップST7)。再度、自車両データおよび自車両周辺データを取得する場合(ステップST7;YES)、ステップST1の処理に戻り、上述した処理を繰り返す。一方、自車両データおよび自車両周辺データを取得しない場合(ステップST7;NO)、処理を終了する。 The entertainment content generation unit 3 estimates the driving state of the driver of the host vehicle or the surrounding vehicle and the state of the passenger or the person outside the vehicle for collation with the expression database 4 based on the converted data converted in step ST4. At the same time, the impression received by the driver from the environment outside the vehicle is estimated (step ST5). Furthermore, the entertainment content generation unit 3 determines whether or not a description expression corresponding to the estimated driving state, the state of the person, and the impression received by the driver is stored in the expression database 4 (step ST6). When the corresponding adjective expression is not accumulated (step ST6; NO), it is determined whether or not the own vehicle data and the own vehicle surrounding data are acquired again with reference to the set condition (step ST7). When the own vehicle data and the own vehicle surrounding data are acquired again (step ST7; YES), the process returns to step ST1, and the above-described process is repeated. On the other hand, when the own vehicle data and the own vehicle surrounding data are not acquired (step ST7; NO), the process is terminated.
 一方、該当する形容表現が蓄積されている場合(ステップST6;YES)、エンタテイメントコンテンツ生成部3は該当する形容表現を選択し(ステップST8)、さらにコンテンツデータベース5を参照して選択した形容表現に対応するイラストであるエンタテイメントコンテンツを取得する(ステップST9)。エンタテイメントコンテンツ生成部3は、取得したエンタテイメントコンテンツに加えて、対応する車両関連情報、変換データおよび形容表現などをエンタテイメントコンテンツ蓄積部6に蓄積するか否か判定を行う(ステップST10)。蓄積しない場合(ステップST10;NO)、ステップST12の処理に進む。一方、蓄積する場合(ステップST10;YES)、データをエンタテイメントコンテンツ蓄積部6に蓄積する(ステップST11)。 On the other hand, if the corresponding adjective expression is accumulated (step ST6; YES), the entertainment content generation unit 3 selects the relevant adjective expression (step ST8), and further refers to the content database 5 to the selected adjective expression. Entertainment content that is a corresponding illustration is acquired (step ST9). The entertainment content generation unit 3 determines whether to store corresponding vehicle-related information, conversion data, description of description, and the like in the entertainment content storage unit 6 in addition to the acquired entertainment content (step ST10). When not storing (step ST10; NO), it progresses to the process of step ST12. On the other hand, when accumulating (step ST10; YES), the data is accumulated in the entertainment content accumulating unit 6 (step ST11).
 さらに、エンタテイメントコンテンツ生成部3は、設定条件を参照してステップST9で取得したエンタテイメントコンテンツを車載ディスプレイ8に表示するか否か判定を行う(ステップST12)。車載ディスプレイ8に表示しない場合(ステップST12;NO)、ステップST14の処理に進む。車載ディスプレイ8に表示する場合(ステップST12;YES)、表示制御部7を介して車載ディスプレイ8にエンタテイメントコンテンツを表示する(ステップST13)。 Further, the entertainment content generation unit 3 determines whether or not to display the entertainment content acquired in step ST9 on the in-vehicle display 8 with reference to the setting condition (step ST12). When not displaying on the vehicle-mounted display 8 (step ST12; NO), it progresses to the process of step ST14. When displaying on the vehicle-mounted display 8 (step ST12; YES), an entertainment content is displayed on the vehicle-mounted display 8 via the display control part 7 (step ST13).
 その後、エンタテイメントコンテンツ生成部3は、設定条件を参照して、自車両データおよび自車両周辺データの取得を継続するか否か判定を行う(ステップST14)。継続しない場合(ステップST14;NO)、処理を終了する。一方、継続する場合(ステップST14;YES)、ステップST2の処理に戻り、上述した処理を繰り返す。 Thereafter, the entertainment content generation unit 3 refers to the setting condition and determines whether or not to continue acquiring the own vehicle data and the surrounding data of the own vehicle (step ST14). When not continuing (step ST14; NO), a process is complete | finished. On the other hand, when continuing (step ST14; YES), it returns to the process of step ST2 and repeats the process mentioned above.
 上述した図5のフローチャートでは、あらかじめ設定条件が設定されている場合を例に示したが、あらかじめ設定条件を設定することなく、ステップST1、ST7、ST10、ST12においてユーザの選択入力を求める画面を車載ディスプレイ8に表示する、あるいはユーザの選択入力を求める音声アナウンスをスピーカ(不図示)から出力するように構成してもよい。 In the flowchart of FIG. 5 described above, the case where the setting conditions are set in advance is shown as an example, but the screen for requesting the user's selection input in steps ST1, ST7, ST10, and ST12 without setting the setting conditions in advance.

 次に、上述した図5のフローチャートに沿って、取得された自車両データおよび自車両周辺データからエンタテイメントコンテンツが生成されるまでの具体例を、図6を参照しながら説明する。
 図6は、この発明の実施の形態1による車載情報処理装置100の処理内容を模式的に示した説明図である。図6(a)は情報取得部の構成例を示し、図6(b)は情報変換部の変換処理例を示し、図6(c)はエンタテイメントコンテンツ生成部の生成例を示し、図6(d)は表現データベースの構成例を示し、図6(e)はコンテンツデータベースの構成例を示し、図6(f)は車載ディスプレイの表示例を示す。
Next, a specific example until entertainment content is generated from the acquired host vehicle data and host vehicle peripheral data will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram schematically showing the processing contents of the in-vehicle information processing apparatus 100 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. 6A shows a configuration example of the information acquisition unit, FIG. 6B shows a conversion processing example of the information conversion unit, FIG. 6C shows a generation example of the entertainment content generation unit, and FIG. d) shows a configuration example of the expression database, FIG. 6 (e) shows a configuration example of the content database, and FIG. 6 (f) shows a display example of the in-vehicle display.
 図6(a)に示すように、情報取得部1は車載カメラ1a、センサ1b、マイク1c、ナビゲーション装置1d、モバイル端末1fで構成される。情報取得部1の各構成は、ステップST2として自車両データおよび自車両周辺データを取得する。 As shown in FIG. 6A, the information acquisition unit 1 includes an in-vehicle camera 1a, a sensor 1b, a microphone 1c, a navigation device 1d, and a mobile terminal 1f. Each structure of the information acquisition part 1 acquires own vehicle data and own vehicle surrounding data as step ST2.
 図6(b)に示すように、ステップST2で取得されたデータから、ステップST3として車両関連情報を抽出する。車両関連情報は「自車両の動き」、「周辺車両の動き」、「空の状況」、「道路の状況」に分類されて抽出され、例えば「自車両の動き」について運転者の表情を撮影した撮影映像、車体のふらつき情報、車内状態および車速測定の結果が抽出される。 As shown in FIG. 6B, vehicle-related information is extracted as step ST3 from the data acquired in step ST2. Vehicle-related information is classified and extracted as “movement of own vehicle”, “movement of surrounding vehicles”, “sky situation”, and “road situation”, for example, photographing the driver's facial expression about “movement of own vehicle” The captured image, the vehicle wobble information, the in-vehicle state and the vehicle speed measurement result are extracted.
 次に、ステップST4として、車両関連情報としきい値との比較、あるいは車両関連情報の解析結果に基づいて、変換データをテーブルから選択する。例えば、運転者の表情を撮影した撮影映像の解析結果から「目がパッチリ明いている」との変換データを選択し、車速測定結果をしきい値と比較することにより「制限速度より遅い」との変換データを選択する。 Next, as step ST4, conversion data is selected from the table based on the comparison between the vehicle related information and the threshold value or the analysis result of the vehicle related information. For example, from the analysis result of the shot image that captured the driver's facial expression, select conversion data that is `` eyes are patchy '' and compare the vehicle speed measurement result with the threshold value to say `` slower than the speed limit '' Select the conversion data.
 図6(c)に示すように、ステップST4で選択された変換データから、ステップST5として自車両の運転者および周辺車両の運転者の運転状態、空の状況および道路の状況から自車両の運転者が受ける印象を推定する。例えば、図6(b)で示した自車両の動きを示した5つの変換データから、自車両の運転者の運転状態を「通話中のため周囲の状況を把握していない」と推定する。同様に、図6(b)で示した空の状況を示した2つの変換データから、車外環境から自車両の運転者が受ける印象を「注意を必要とする」と推定する。 As shown in FIG. 6 (c), based on the conversion data selected in step ST4, in step ST5, the driving of the host vehicle is determined based on the driving state, the sky condition, and the road condition of the driver of the host vehicle and the surrounding vehicles. The impression that the person will receive. For example, from the five conversion data indicating the movement of the host vehicle shown in FIG. 6B, the driving state of the driver of the host vehicle is estimated as “because of a call, the surrounding situation is not grasped”. Similarly, from the two conversion data indicating the empty situation shown in FIG. 6B, the impression received by the driver of the host vehicle from the outside environment is estimated as “needs attention”.
 続いて、ステップST6およびステップST8として、図6(d)に示した表現データベース4を参照して、ステップST5で推定した運転状態および印象を形容する表現を取得する。例えば、自車両の運転者について「通話中のため、周囲の状況を把握していない」と推定した運転状態に対して「ニコニコ」との形容表現を取得する。また、車外環境から自車両の運転者が受けた「注意を必要とする」との印象に対して「ハラハラ」との形容表現を取得する。 Subsequently, as step ST6 and step ST8, referring to the expression database 4 shown in FIG. 6D, expressions expressing the driving state and impression estimated in step ST5 are acquired. For example, for the driver of the own vehicle, an adjective expression “Nico Nico” is acquired with respect to the driving state estimated as “because of the call, the surrounding situation is not grasped”. In addition, for the impression that “the driver needs attention” received by the driver of the host vehicle from the outside environment, an adjective expression “Harahara” is acquired.
