<Processing by the stance phase data analysis unit 504>
The stance phase data analysis unit 504 analyzes the measurement data 526 acquired during stance walking and generates post-walking processing data 527. In other words, the stance phase data analysis unit 504 uses the waveform data representing the human walking motion to perform walking events such as the stance phase and the free leg phase (when one foot of the human walking motion is seen, the foot touches the ground. Automatically detected in the stance phase in the separated state and the free leg phase in the state of getting out of the ground) to obtain numerical values related to human walking motion.
 図11は立脚期データ解析部504の処理例を示すフローチャートである。図11において、立脚期データ解析部504は、計測データ526の各センサの圧力値の波形データを取得し(ステップS111)、波形の立ち上がりから接地時点を検出し、一歩行毎の波形データを切り出す(ステップS112)。すなわち、全センサの圧力値が最小になる点から次に全センサの圧力値が最小になる点までの状態を1立脚期とするが、当該の立脚期データが正常な歩行状態のデータであることを次の条件で精査し、これに当てはまるデータをパラメータ抽出に用いる1立脚期とする。

(b)1立脚期の長さが1200ms未満であること
FIG. 11 is a flowchart illustrating a processing example of the stance phase data analysis unit 504. In FIG. 11, the stance phase data analysis unit 504 acquires waveform data of pressure values of the respective sensors in the measurement data 526 (step S111), detects a ground contact point from the rising edge of the waveform, and cuts out waveform data for each walk. (Step S112). That is, the state from the point where the pressure values of all the sensors become the minimum to the point where the pressure values of all the sensors become the next is set as one stance phase, but the stance phase data is data of a normal walking state. This is scrutinized under the following conditions, and data corresponding to this is defined as one stance phase used for parameter extraction.
(A) A sensor showing the highest pressure value (top maximum value) in the entire waveform data for a fixed period of walking is specified, and a plurality of maximum values of the waveform data from the sensor are all 80% based on the top maximum value. (B) The length of one stance phase is less than 1200 ms.
 図12は7個のセンサの波形データの例を示しており、複数歩による波形が記録されているが、これらから図13に示されるような一歩行毎の波形データが切り出される。 FIG. 12 shows an example of the waveform data of seven sensors, and the waveforms of a plurality of steps are recorded. From these, the waveform data for each walk as shown in FIG. 13 is cut out.
 図11に戻り、次いで、立脚期データ解析部504は、各センサの一歩行毎の波形の最大圧力値を検出し、センサ毎の複数歩の最大圧力値合計を歩数で除算することで平均(「左足1番センサ:後足部(踵)最大圧力値平均」等)をとり、足底圧パラメータとして取得する(ステップS113)。図14は各センサの波形から最大値(黒丸で図示)が取得された様子を示している。 Returning to FIG. 11, the stance phase data analysis unit 504 then detects the maximum pressure value of the waveform for each walk of each sensor, and divides the total maximum pressure value of a plurality of steps for each sensor by the number of steps. "Left foot No. 1 sensor: hind foot (踵) maximum pressure value average" etc.) is acquired and acquired as a plantar pressure parameter (step S113). FIG. 14 shows a state in which the maximum value (illustrated by a black circle) is acquired from the waveform of each sensor.
 図11に戻り、次いで、立脚期データ解析部504は、計測データ526の「左足足圧中心COP_X座標値」「左足足圧中心COP_Y座標値」「右足足圧中心COP_X座標値」「右足足圧中心COP_Y座標値」から、COPパラメータとして、「COP開始位置X座標」「COP開始位置Y座標」「COP終了位置X座標」「COP終了位置Y座標」「左足COP屈曲角」「右足COP屈曲角」「左足歩行中期COP_X座標範囲」「右足歩行中期COP_X座標範囲」を取得する(ステップS114)。図15は、COP開始位置であるA点から、H点(3番センサと5番センサを結ぶ直線とCOP軌跡の交点)を通り、COP終了位置であるB点を通るCOP軌跡が示されており、直線AHと直線HBのなす角度がCOP屈曲角となる。また、歩行方向(足底の長手方向)となるY座標方向におけるCOP開始位置Y座標とCOP終了位置Y座標の中点(接地と離床の中間)に最も近いCOP座標の複数歩における側方方向の最大値と最小値の差が歩行中期COP_X座標範囲となる。 Returning to FIG. 11, the stance phase data analysis unit 504 then includes the “left foot foot pressure center COP_X coordinate value”, “left foot foot pressure center COP_Y coordinate value”, “right foot foot pressure center COP_X coordinate value”, and “right foot foot pressure” in the measurement data 526. From the center COP_Y coordinate value, as COP parameters, “COP start position X coordinate” “COP start position Y coordinate” “COP end position X coordinate” “COP end position Y coordinate” “left foot COP flex angle” “right foot COP flex angle” "" Left-foot walking middle period COP_X coordinate range "" "Right-foot walking middle period COP_X coordinate range" is acquired (step S114). FIG. 15 shows a COP trajectory passing from point A, which is the COP start position, through point H, (the intersection of the straight line connecting the third sensor and the fifth sensor and the COP trajectory) and passing through point B, which is the COP end position. The angle formed by the straight line AH and the straight line HB is the COP bending angle. In addition, the lateral direction in a plurality of steps of the COP coordinate closest to the midpoint of the COP start position Y coordinate and the COP end position Y coordinate (intermediate between ground contact and getting out of bed) in the Y coordinate direction that is the walking direction (longitudinal direction of the sole) The difference between the maximum value and the minimum value is the middle walking COP_X coordinate range.
 図11に戻り、次いで、立脚期データ解析部504は、時間パラメータとして、複数歩の平均である「左足平均立脚時間」「右足平均立脚時間」「両脚支持割合」「左足単脚支持割合」「右足単脚支持割合」を取得する(ステップS115)。図16は左右の足の接地状態を示しており、片足の接地から離床までが立脚時間となり、両足が接地している期間が両脚支持期となり、片足のみが接地している期間が単脚支持期となる。両脚支持割合は、立脚時間における両脚支持期の時間の割合である。単脚支持割合は、立脚時間における単脚支持期の時間の割合である。 Returning to FIG. 11, the stance phase data analysis unit 504 then, as a time parameter, “left foot average stance time”, “right foot average stance time”, “both leg support ratio”, “left foot single leg support ratio”, which is an average of a plurality of steps. "Right foot single leg support ratio" is acquired (step S115). FIG. 16 shows the ground contact state of the left and right feet. The time from one foot to the floor is the standing time, the time when both feet are grounded is the both-leg support period, and the time when only one foot is grounded is the single-leg support. It is a period. The both-leg support ratio is a ratio of the time of the both-leg support period in the stance time. The monopod support ratio is a ratio of the time of the single leg support period in the stance time.
 図11に戻り、次いで、立脚期データ解析部504は、取得された足底圧パラメータ、COPパラメータ、時間パラメータと、解析時に用いられた歩行一定時間内の立脚期の数である歩数とを歩行処理後データ527に記録する(ステップS116)。 Returning to FIG. 11, the stance phase data analysis unit 504 then walks the acquired plantar pressure parameter, COP parameter, and time parameter, and the number of steps that are the number of stance phases within a predetermined walking time used in the analysis. It records in the post-processing data 527 (step S116).
 <静止立位データ解析部505による処理>
 静止立位データ解析部505は、立位姿勢が一定期間維持された際に取得された計測データ526を解析し、静止立位処理後データ528を生成する。
<Processing by Static Standing Data Analysis Unit 505>
The static standing data analysis unit 505 analyzes the measurement data 526 acquired when the standing posture is maintained for a certain period, and generates post-static standing processing data 528.
 図17は静止立位データ解析部505の処理例を示すフローチャートである。図17において、静止立位データ解析部505は、計測データ526の各センサの圧力値の波形データを取得し(ステップS121)、COP軌跡データ(「両足足圧中心COP_X座標値」「両足足圧中心COP_Y座標値」)を取得する(ステップS122)。ここでのCOP軌跡は、両足で立っている状態であるため、両足の中心付近に位置する。図18にはCOP軌跡の例が示されており、若干右足寄りで変動するものとなっている。 FIG. 17 is a flowchart showing a processing example of the stationary standing data analysis unit 505. In FIG. 17, the stationary standing data analysis unit 505 acquires waveform data of the pressure value of each sensor of the measurement data 526 (step S121), and COP trajectory data (“both foot foot pressure center COP_X coordinate value” “both foot foot pressure”. The center COP_Y coordinate value ") is acquired (step S122). The COP trajectory here is in a state of standing on both feet, and is therefore located near the center of both feet. FIG. 18 shows an example of a COP locus, which fluctuates slightly toward the right foot.
 図17に戻り、次いで、静止立位データ解析部505は、COP軌跡から、COPパラメータの一つとして、COP総軌跡長を取得する(ステップS123)。すなわち、計測データ526のサンプリング周期毎のCOPのx座標とy座標の変位から微小移動量が求められ、それが積算されることでCOP総軌跡長が求められる。 Returning to FIG. 17, the stationary standing data analysis unit 505 then acquires the COP total trajectory length as one of the COP parameters from the COP trajectory (step S123). That is, the minute movement amount is obtained from the displacement of the COP x-coordinate and y-coordinate for each sampling period of the measurement data 526, and the total movement length is obtained by integrating the minute movement amount.
 次いで、静止立位データ解析部505は、COPパラメータの一つとして、COP矩形面積を取得する(ステップS124)。COP矩形面積は、COP軌跡の外接矩形の面積として求められる。 Next, the stationary standing data analysis unit 505 acquires a COP rectangular area as one of the COP parameters (step S124). The COP rectangular area is obtained as an area of a circumscribed rectangle of the COP locus.
 次いで、静止立位データ解析部505は、足底圧パラメータの一つとして、各センサの荷重比率を取得する(ステップS125)。各センサの荷重比率は、各センサの平均圧力値が全センサ(両足の14個のセンサ)の平均圧力値の総和で除算されることで求められる。図18には各センサ(丸で図示)に荷重比率の値の例が示されている。 Next, the static standing data analysis unit 505 acquires the load ratio of each sensor as one of the plantar pressure parameters (step S125). The load ratio of each sensor is obtained by dividing the average pressure value of each sensor by the sum of the average pressure values of all sensors (14 sensors on both feet).

<Processing by the toe contact evaluation unit 517>
FIG. 28 is a flowchart showing a processing example of the toe contact evaluation unit 517. In FIG. 28, the toe contact evaluation unit 517 refers to the left foot 4 sensor: forefoot 2 maximum pressure value average and the right foot 4 sensor: forefoot 2 maximum pressure value average from the post-walking data 527 (step S341). ).
 次いで、母趾接地評価部517は、両センサが示す圧力値を合計した合計値に基づいて、母趾の接地を評価する(ステップS342)。例えば、評価は、合計値と、あらかじめ設定される所定値とを比較して行われる。以下、説明では、所定値は、5N(ニュートン)であるとする。ただし、所定値は、設定可能な値であり、例えば、体重等によって定まる値となる。なお、所定値を「5N」とする場合は、体重が「40kg乃至50kg」程度の場合である。また、所定値は、「50kPa」としてもよい。すなわち、評価は、力又は圧力のどちらで行われてもよい。 Next, the mother's ground contact evaluation unit 517 evaluates the ground contact of the mother's body based on the total value of the pressure values indicated by both sensors (step S342). For example, the evaluation is performed by comparing the total value with a predetermined value set in advance. In the following description, it is assumed that the predetermined value is 5N (Newton). However, the predetermined value is a value that can be set, for example, a value determined by weight or the like. When the predetermined value is “5N”, the weight is about “40 kg to 50 kg”. The predetermined value may be “50 kPa”. That is, the evaluation may be performed with either force or pressure.
 例えば、両センサが示す圧力値の合計値が5N以上であると評価される場合、母趾接地評価部517は、母趾の接地が通常と評価する(ステップS343)。 For example, when it is evaluated that the total value of the pressure values indicated by both sensors is 5N or more, the toe ground contact evaluation unit 517 evaluates that the toe contact is normal (step S343).
 また、両センサが示す圧力値の合計値が5N未満かつ0Nより大きいと評価される場合、母趾接地評価部517は、母趾の接地が弱く、浮指気味であると評価する(ステップS344)。 Further, when it is evaluated that the total value of the pressure values indicated by both sensors is less than 5N and greater than 0N, the toe ground contact evaluation unit 517 evaluates that the toe touch is weak and that the toe is slightly floating (step S344). ).
 さらに、両センサが示す圧力値の合計値が0N、すなわち、出力がないと評価される場合、母趾接地評価部517は、母趾の接地がなく、浮指であると評価する(ステップS345)。 Furthermore, when the total value of the pressure values indicated by both sensors is 0 N, that is, when it is evaluated that there is no output, the toe ground contact evaluation unit 517 evaluates that the toe is not touched and is a floating finger (step S345). ).
 以上のようにして、母趾接地評価部517は、母趾接地の評価結果を出力する。 As described above, the mother ground contact evaluation unit 517 outputs the evaluation result of the mother ground contact.

 図29は総合評価部515の処理例を示すフローチャートである。図29において、総合評価部515は、複数歩バランス評価部510の評価結果と、左右差評価部513の評価結果とに基づき、カラダバランス度を算出する(ステップS41)。具体的には、それぞれの評価結果(数値化されていないものは数値化を実施)の加算・乗算・規格化等により、最終的に例えば1~10の値に点数化して、カラダバランス度を算出する。 FIG. 29 is a flowchart showing a processing example of the comprehensive evaluation unit 515. In FIG. 29, the comprehensive evaluation unit 515 calculates the body balance degree based on the evaluation result of the multi-step balance evaluation unit 510 and the evaluation result of the left / right difference evaluation unit 513 (step S41). Specifically, by adding, multiplying, standardizing, etc. each evaluation result (the one that has not been digitized is digitized), it is finally scored to a value of 1 to 10, for example, to improve the body balance degree. calculate.
 次いで、総合評価部515は、立脚時間評価部511の評価結果と、両脚支持割合評価部512の評価結果とに基づき、歩き方リズム(度)を算出する(ステップS42)。具体的には、それぞれの評価結果(数値化されていないものは数値化を実施)の加算・乗算・規格化等により、最終的に例えば1~10の値に点数化して、歩き方リズムを算出する。 Next, the comprehensive evaluation unit 515 calculates a walking rhythm (degree) based on the evaluation result of the stance time evaluation unit 511 and the evaluation result of the both leg support ratio evaluation unit 512 (step S42). Specifically, by adding, multiplying, standardizing, etc. each evaluation result (unquantized ones are digitized), the score is finally converted to a value of 1 to 10, for example, to change the walking rhythm calculate.
 次いで、総合評価部515は、前足部局所荷重評価部508の評価結果と、回内足・回外足評価部509の評価結果と、足部アーチ評価部514の評価結果とに基づき、美足度を算出する(ステップS43)。具体的には、それぞれの評価結果(数値化されていないものは数値化を実施)の加算・乗算・規格化等により、最終的に例えば1~10の値に点数化して、美足度を算出する。なお、一般的な健常足と比較した場合の類似度や解剖学的に異常な荷重が行われていないか等が美足度の算出に考慮されるようにしてもよい。また、美足度は、足が健康な状態であると高くなる値である。 Next, the comprehensive evaluation unit 515 determines the beauty foot based on the evaluation result of the forefoot local load evaluation unit 508, the evaluation result of the pronation foot / extroversion foot evaluation unit 509, and the evaluation result of the foot arch evaluation unit 514. The degree is calculated (step S43). Specifically, by adding, multiplying, standardizing, etc. each evaluation result (the one that has not been digitized is digitized), it is finally scored to a value of 1 to 10, for example, to improve the leg calculate. It should be noted that the degree of similarity may be taken into account when calculating the degree of beauty, such as the degree of similarity compared to a normal healthy foot or whether an anatomically abnormal load is applied. The degree of beauty is a value that increases when the foot is in a healthy state.
 なお、美足度は、胼胝・魚の目評価結果と、回内足・回外足評価結果と、足部アーチ評価結果と、母趾接地の評価結果のうち、少なくとも1つを用いて算出される。そして、算出は、評価結果を重み付けしてもよい。すなわち、美足度の算出には、母趾接地の評価結果が加わってもよい。 The degree of beauty foot is calculated by using at least one of the eye / fish eye evaluation result, the pronation / extraction foot evaluation result, the foot arch evaluation result, and the evaluation result of the toe contact with the heel. . In the calculation, the evaluation result may be weighted. That is, the evaluation result of the toe contact may be added to the calculation of the degree of beauty.
 また、足部アーチ評価結果は、他の評価結果と比較して、健康状態を示す値として重みが大きい。したがって、美足度は、足部アーチ評価結果のみで算出されたり、足部アーチ評価結果の重みを高くして算出されたりしてもよい。このような算出方法であると、精度良く美足度を算出できる。 Also, the foot arch evaluation result has a higher weight as a value indicating the health condition than the other evaluation results. Therefore, the leg degree may be calculated only from the foot arch evaluation result, or may be calculated by increasing the weight of the foot arch evaluation result. With such a calculation method, it is possible to accurately calculate the degree of beauty.
 次いで、総合評価部515は、ライフログデータ524を参照し、活動度を算出する(ステップS44)。具体的には、直近の所定期間内の移動距離、歩数、平均歩行速度等の加算・乗算・規格化等により、最終的に例えば1~10の値に点数化して、活動度を算出する。 Next, the comprehensive evaluation unit 515 refers to the life log data 524 and calculates an activity level (step S44). Specifically, the degree of activity is calculated by finally scoring to a value of 1 to 10, for example, by adding, multiplying, normalizing, etc. the moving distance, the number of steps, and the average walking speed within the most recent predetermined period.
 算出された総合評価の結果(美足度、カラダバランス度、歩き方リズム、活動度)は、図30に示されるようなグラフ(レーダーチャート)へのプロットにより表示(可視化)が可能である。 The calculated comprehensive evaluation results (foot degree, body balance degree, walking rhythm, activity level) can be displayed (visualized) by plotting on a graph (radar chart) as shown in FIG.
 <総合分析部516による処理>
 総合分析部516は、上述した処理により得られたデータとその他の追加的なデータに基づき、歩行動作・日常生活活動データの総合分析を行う。追加的なデータとしては、ユーザデータ522や靴データ523やライフログデータ524がある。「1日の予定」「目的地」等はユーザの手入力およびユーザが利用する任意のスケジュール機能やカレンダー機能を持つインターネットサービスに記録された情報を取得するなどして利用する。「移動距離」「歩数」「平均歩行速度」「最多位置情報(GPS)」等は情報端末3またはユーザが利用する任意のウェアラブル情報端末から取得され、また取得情報から計算されて記録される。「靴メーカー型番」等はユーザの手入力や靴製品バーコードの読み取り等により情報取得が行われる。また、靴購入後1週間~1カ月などに「靴擦れ有無」「靴擦れ部位」「胼胝有無」「胼胝部位」「痛み有無」「痛み部位」「圧迫有無」「圧迫部位」等の情報がユーザにより入力される。
<Processing by Comprehensive Analysis Unit 516>
The comprehensive analysis unit 516 performs a comprehensive analysis of walking motion / daily life activity data based on the data obtained by the above-described processing and other additional data. Additional data includes user data 522, shoe data 523, and life log data 524. “Daily schedule”, “Destination”, etc. are used by manually inputting the user and acquiring information recorded in an Internet service having an arbitrary schedule function or calendar function used by the user. “Movement distance”, “number of steps”, “average walking speed”, “most frequent position information (GPS)” and the like are acquired from the information terminal 3 or any wearable information terminal used by the user, and are calculated from the acquired information and recorded. “Shoemaker model number” and the like are obtained by manual input by a user, reading of a shoe product barcode, or the like. In addition, information such as “Shoe rubbing presence / absence”, “Shoe rubbing site”, “Wheel presence / absence”, “Hail location”, “Pain presence / absence”, “Pain location”, “Pressure presence / absence”, “Pressure location”, etc. Entered.
 分析の例として、総合分析部516は、本システムのユーザの現在の足部状態に類似している足部状態を持ち、かつ行動量が近い他者が、類似時点より後の時点でどのような足部状態に遷移したかを特定し、未来の足部状態の予測判定をすることができる。 As an example of analysis, the comprehensive analysis unit 516 has a foot state that is similar to the current foot state of the user of the system, and how the other person who has a close amount of action is later than the similar time point. It is possible to determine whether or not the foot state has been changed, and to predict and predict the future foot state.
 [分析の具体例#1:他者との比較]
 総合評価部515による総合評価までの処理を、蓄積しているすべてのユーザの歩行処理後データ527に対して行い、総合分析部516はクラスタリングを行うことで類似傾向のグループを分けることができる。総合分析部516は、その結果を、本システムのユーザに対し、属しているグループの全体に占める割合(多さ少なさ)や良好なグループの総合評価指標分布に対する距離として示すことができる。このフィードバックには、図30に示されたようなレーダーチャートを利用することができる。
[Specific Example of Analysis # 1: Comparison with Others]
The process up to the comprehensive evaluation by the comprehensive evaluation unit 515 is performed on the accumulated post-walking data 527 of all the users, and the comprehensive analysis unit 516 can divide groups of similar tendencies by performing clustering. The comprehensive analysis unit 516 can show the result as a ratio to the total number of groups to which the user belongs (small or large) and a distance to a comprehensive evaluation index distribution of a good group. A radar chart as shown in FIG. 30 can be used for this feedback.
 [分析の具体例#2:靴の推奨]
 総合分析部516は、他の分析結果のフィードバックとともに、あるいは個別の要求に応じて、ユーザに相応しい靴の候補を提示する。
[Specific example # 2: Recommended shoes]
The comprehensive analysis unit 516 presents shoes candidates suitable for the user together with feedback of other analysis results or in response to individual requests.
 成人女性において、約7割が靴選びで後悔するという結果が得られており、その要因の一つとして個人の主観や経験で靴や履物の選択が行われている点が挙げられる。また、靴販売店で一時的な足部形状計測は行われているものの、日常活動中の歩行データに基づいた靴の選択は行われていない。ここでは、客観的かつ定量的な歩行運動データに基づいて評価された個人の歩行・足部状態の特徴から、他者との比較により、類似する状態の他者であって、その後に障害等が発生していない健常足の持ち主が類似していた時期以降に履いていた靴を提案することで、適切な靴選択を支援するようにしている。 As a result, about 70% of adult women regret selecting shoes. One of the factors is the selection of shoes and footwear based on individual subjectivity and experience. Moreover, although the foot shape measurement is performed temporarily at a shoe store, the selection of shoes based on walking data during daily activities is not performed. Here, based on objective and quantitative walking movement data, the characteristics of the individual's walking / foot state are evaluated by comparison with others, and the other person is in a similar state. By proposing shoes that were worn since the time when the owners of healthy feet that did not have any similarities were proposed, appropriate shoe selection was supported.
 図31は靴の推奨の処理例を示すフローチャートである。図31において、総合分析部516は、対象ユーザに対し、歩行・静止立位の状態が類似する他ユーザを抽出する(ステップS51)。この場合の類似は、ユーザデータ522から「足長」「足幅」「足高」「足囲」の情報を取り出し、足の外形の類似をみてもよいし、歩行処理後データ527および静止立位処理後データ528から各パラメータの類似をみてもよい。 FIG. 31 is a flowchart showing an example of recommended shoe processing. In FIG. 31, the comprehensive analysis unit 516 extracts other users who are similar in a walking / still standing state to the target user (step S51). Similarity in this case may be obtained by extracting information on “foot length”, “foot width”, “foot height”, and “foot circumference” from the user data 522, and looking at the similarity of the outer shape of the foot. Similarity of each parameter may be seen from post-position processing data 528.
 次いで、総合分析部516は、評価部507または総合評価部515の評価結果が類似する他ユーザに絞り込みを行う(ステップS52)。 Next, the comprehensive analysis unit 516 narrows down to other users who have similar evaluation results from the evaluation unit 507 or the comprehensive evaluation unit 515 (step S52).
 次いで、総合分析部516は、絞り込まれた他ユーザのうち、類似するとされた時期以降に障害の評価が行われていない者に絞り込みを行う(ステップS53)。 Next, the comprehensive analysis unit 516 narrows down the narrowed-down users to those who have not been evaluated for failures after the time when they are regarded as similar (step S53).
 次いで、総合分析部516は、絞り込まれた他ユーザの、類似するとされた時期以降に使用されていた靴データ523を取得し、推奨される靴選択候補として提示する(ステップS54)。 Next, the comprehensive analysis unit 516 acquires the shoe data 523 that has been used since the similar time of other narrowed-down users and presents it as a recommended shoe selection candidate (step S54).
 なお、総合分析部516は、ユーザデータ522から対象ユーザと他ユーザの性別や年齢・世代等の情報を取得し、更にはライフログデータ524から行動パターンを示す各種の情報を取得し、それらが類似している他ユーザに更に絞り込みを行うようにしてもよい。 The comprehensive analysis unit 516 acquires information such as the sex and age / generation of the target user and other users from the user data 522, and further acquires various types of information indicating behavior patterns from the life log data 524. You may make it narrow down further to other similar users.
 なお、靴の候補が提示される場合についての処理例であったが、インソール、足指矯正パッド、外反母趾用サポーター等の補助装具についても、同様に提示されるようにしてもよい。 In addition, although it was the example of a process about the case where the candidate of shoes is shown, you may make it show similarly about auxiliary devices, such as an insole, a toe correction pad, and a supporter for hallux valgus.
 [分析の具体例#3:靴の使用による足部異常の予測]
 総合分析部516は、例えば、次のような手順で靴の使用による足部異常を予測する。
[Specific Example of Analysis # 3: Prediction of foot abnormalities due to use of shoes]
For example, the comprehensive analysis unit 516 predicts foot abnormalities due to the use of shoes in the following procedure.
 1.ユーザデータ522から「足長」「足幅」「足高」「足囲」の情報を取り出し、他者間比較で足の外形が類似する他者を特定する。 1. Information on “foot length”, “foot width”, “foot height”, and “foot circumference” is extracted from the user data 522, and another person whose foot shape is similar is identified by comparison between others.
 2.上記1.で特定した他者の処理後データ(過去のデータから本システムのユーザの利用時までのすべての時系列データを含む)から、靴データ523を用い、本システムのユーザが選択している靴と類似した靴を使用しているときに取得された歩行処理後データ527および静止立位処理後データ528を特定する。 2. Above 1. The shoes selected by the user of this system using the shoe data 523 from the post-processing data of other persons specified in (including all time series data from the past data to the time of use of the user of this system) The post-walking processing data 527 and the stationary standing processing post-processing data 528 acquired when using similar shoes are specified.
 3.上記2.で特定した処理後データから、本システムのユーザと歩行機能が類似するデータを選び出す。処理内容については後述する。 3. 2. From the post-processing data specified in step 1, data having a walking function similar to that of the user of this system is selected. The processing contents will be described later.
 4.類似該当データがある場合、その該当ユーザ(ユーザ群)が、類似した靴を使用していた際の足部と靴に関する情報(具体的には「胼胝形成」、「靴擦れの有無」、「靴の圧迫」、「痛み」の情報)を捉えることで、本システムのユーザが選択している靴を使用継続した場合に足部異常発生の可能性ありあるいはなしと判定する。この場合、「胼胝形成の有無」、「靴擦れの有無」、「圧迫の有無」、「痛みの有無」の可能性が予測でき、履き始めてから発生に至るまでの、経時的な予測が可能となる。 4. If there is similar applicable data, the relevant user (user group) has information about the feet and shoes when using similar shoes (specifically, “formation of wrinkles”, “presence / absence of shoe rubs”, “shoes” ”Pressure” and “pain” information), it is determined that there is a possibility that the foot abnormalities may occur or not when the shoes selected by the user of the system are used. In this case, the possibility of “presence / absence of wrinkle formation”, “presence / absence of shoe rub”, “presence / absence of pressure”, and “presence / absence of pain” can be predicted, and it is possible to predict over time from the start of wearing to the occurrence of occurrence. Become.
 図32は上述の処理「3.」での歩行機能の類似する対象データ決定の処理例を示すフローチャートである。図32において、総合分析部516は、本システムのユーザAと他者のユーザ群Bについて、歩行処理後データ527により両足3、4、5、7番センサの最大圧力値平均とCOP屈曲角とを抽出・参照する(ステップS61)。 FIG. 32 is a flowchart showing a processing example of target data determination similar to the walking function in the above-described processing “3.”. In FIG. 32, the comprehensive analysis unit 516 uses the post-walking processing data 527 for the user A and the other user group B of this system to calculate the maximum pressure value average of the sensors of the feet 3, 4, 5, and 7 and the COP flexion angle. Are extracted and referenced (step S61).
 次いで、総合分析部516は、両足3、4、5、7番センサの最大圧力値平均から離床時エリアを特定する(ステップS62)。 Next, the comprehensive analysis unit 516 specifies the bed leaving area from the average maximum pressure value of the sensors of the three feet 3, 4, 5, and 7 (step S62).
 次いで、総合分析部516は、B群からAと離床時エリアが一致する対象を抽出する(ステップS63)。離床時エリアが一致しない場合、処理を終了する。 Next, the comprehensive analysis unit 516 extracts a target in which the area at the time of bed leaving coincides with A from the group B (step S63). If the areas at the time of getting out do not match, the process ends.
 次いで、総合分析部516は、COP屈曲角が175より大きい場合は歩行タイプA、COP屈曲角が155より小さい場合は歩行タイプB、それ以外の場合は歩行タイプCとする(ステップS64)。 Next, the comprehensive analysis unit 516 sets walking type A when the COP bending angle is larger than 175, walking type B when the COP bending angle is smaller than 155, and walking type C otherwise (step S64).
 次いで、総合分析部516は、B群からAと歩行タイプ(A~C)が一致する対象を抽出し(ステップS65)、Aに対する比較対象を決定する(ステップS66)。歩行タイプが一致しない場合、処理を終了する。この場合、同じ歩行タイプに属するデータを持つユーザ同士は歩行機能が近いとみなすことができる。 Next, the comprehensive analysis unit 516 extracts a target in which the walking type (A to C) matches A from the group B (step S65), and determines a comparison target for A (step S66). If the walking type does not match, the process ends. In this case, users having data belonging to the same walking type can be regarded as having a walking function close to each other.
