1st Embodiment In FIG. 1, the emotion input device 2 acquires the emotion which the user 1 recognizes himself and inputs into a portable terminal. In the following, emotion is also called mood. The emotion input device 2 is a part of the environment control device 10 for a vehicle. The environment control device 10 is also an emotion operation device that operates a user's emotion. Here, the term “vehicle” is to be interpreted in a broad sense, and is a concept including a moving object including a vehicle, a ship, and an aircraft, and a fixed object including an amusement device, a simulation device, and the like. The environment control device 10 adjusts the environment that affects the user's emotions. The environment control device 10 is, for example, an air conditioner that controls the temperature of a passenger compartment of a vehicle. The environment control device 10 is, for example, a scent supply device that supplies scent components to a passenger compartment of a vehicle. In this embodiment, the environment control device 10 is a scent supply device. The scent supply device supplies the adjusted scent to each of a plurality of passengers using the vehicle. Therefore, the environment control apparatus 10 in this embodiment is also called a seat-specific environment control apparatus.

  The environment control device 10 includes an input device 3. The input device 3 may be a personal terminal possessed by the user, a device belonging to a vehicle, or a device fixed to the vehicle. For example, the input device 3 may be a navigation device attached to a vehicle. In this embodiment, the input device 3 is provided by a personal terminal possessed by the user. A typical example of a personal terminal is a computer called a smartphone. The personal terminal may be a device owned by the user. The personal terminal may be a wearable terminal worn by the user on the body.

  The input device 3 may provide a personal information acquisition unit that acquires personal information for identifying a user individually. For example, when the input device 3 is a personal terminal possessed by the user 1, information for identifying an individual can be obtained relatively easily. For example, an ID number, a telephone function number, or the like can be used. The user 1 may input personal information when using the input device 3.

  Each of the input devices 3 has an interface 31 that functions as at least an input device. The interface 31 is provided by a touch display panel as an input / output device. Each of the input devices 3 includes an arithmetic processing unit (CPU) 32. Each of the input devices 3 includes a plurality of sensors (SEN) 33 such as a camera, a plurality of switches, a pulse wave sensor that detects a user's heartbeat, a temperature sensor that detects a user's body temperature, and a geomagnetic sensor. The sensor 33 may detect a face image indicating the emotion of the user 1, body temperature, heartbeat, and the like. Therefore, the input device 3 can be used as an input unit that inputs the user's emotions by manual operation. Furthermore, the input device 3 can also be used as a detection unit that automatically detects a user's emotion by the sensor 33. The input device 3 may include a plurality of personal terminals 3a and 3b possessed by a plurality of users 1a and 1b, respectively.

  The environment control device 10 includes an actuator 11 (L-ACT) for operating the environment. The actuator 11 is installed in an environment where the user 1 is placed. In this embodiment, the actuator 11 is a scent supply device. The scent supply device may include an individual duct that supplies air including a scent component toward each of the plurality of users 1a and 1b. Alternatively, the actuator 11 may be a temperature adjustment device. The actuator 11 provides an operation for changing the emotion of the user 1.

  The environment control device 10 includes a control system (CNT) 12 that controls the actuator 11 according to emotion data. In a typical example, the control system 12 is provided by an electronic control unit (Electronic Control Unit). The control system 12 may be provided by the control function of the input device 3. Here, the “environment” controlled by the environment control device 10 is an element that affects the emotion of the user by stimulating any one of the five senses of the user. The “environment” controlled by the environment control device 10 is, for example, the color of lighting that stimulates vision, music that stimulates hearing, the scent of air that stimulates olfaction, the taste of a beverage that stimulates taste, a massage that stimulates touch At least one of the following. Typical examples of the “environment” controlled by the environment control apparatus 10 may include an air-conditioning environment such as indoor air temperature, indoor air humidity, wind speed hitting the user's skin, and the temperature of the user's seat. Furthermore, it is preferable that the environment is such that the user can feel it alone.

  The control system 12 includes at least one arithmetic processing device 13 (CPU) and at least one memory device 14 (MMR) as a storage medium for storing programs and data. The control system is provided by a microcomputer having a computer-readable storage medium. The storage medium is a non-transitional tangible storage medium that stores a computer-readable program in a non-temporary manner. The storage medium can be provided by a semiconductor memory or a magnetic disk. The control system 12 may be provided by a single computer or a set of computer resources linked by a data communication device. The control system 12 includes, for example, a local controller (L-CNT) 15 installed in a vehicle, both a local controller 15 and a remote controller (R-CNT) 16 installed remotely, or a remote controller 16. Can only be provided by. The control system 12 may include a part called a cloud, for example. The cloud is effective, for example, to provide data and / or programs associated with an individual so that they can be used from a plurality of vehicles. The program is executed by the control system 12 to cause the control system 12 to function as a device described herein and to cause the control system 12 to perform the methods described herein.

  The means and / or functions provided by the control system 12 can be provided by software recorded in a substantial memory device and a computer that executes the software, software only, hardware only, or a combination thereof. For example, the control system 12 can be provided by logic called an if-then-else format, or a neural network tuned by machine learning. Alternatively, for example, if the control system 12 is provided by electronic circuitry that is hardware, it can be provided by a digital circuit that includes multiple logic circuits, or an analog circuit.

  The control device, the signal source, and the control target included in the control system 12 provide various elements. At least some of these elements can be referred to as blocks for performing functions. In another aspect, at least some of these elements can be referred to as modules or sections that are interpreted as configurations. Furthermore, the elements included in the control system can also be referred to as means for realizing the functions only when intentional.

  The environment control device 10 acquires emotion data from an operation by the vehicle user 1 himself. Emotion data is input by the input device 3 possessed by the user. The input emotion data is supplied from the input device 3 to the control system 12. Thereby, the environment control apparatus 10 acquires a user's emotion data. The environment control device 10 provides an emotion data acquisition device and executes an emotion data acquisition method. The control system 12 acquires the emotion of the user 1 from the two-axis input including the comfort level and the arousal level. The control system 12 accumulates emotions input by the user 1 in association with individuals, environmental conditions, and operation amounts. The accumulation function is also called learning. The accumulated information is used for automatic control. Automatic control is an operation based on predetermined control characteristics, and is also called a default value operation. Automatic control is also referred to as control based on an unspecified target in which no emotion is input from the user 1.

  The environment control device 10 processes emotion data by the control system 12. The control system 12 calculates the operation amount of the actuator 11 based on the emotion data. The operation amount is also called “actuation” for influencing the emotion of the user. In this embodiment, a scent is supplied. However, human sensations may be paralyzed or used to scents. For this reason, the change from continuous supply of fragrance to intermittent supply may change the emotion of the user 1. Further, when the supply of a certain type of scent is stopped, the user 1 perceives the original scent of the vehicle or the scent of the outside world, and thus may change the emotion of the user 1. From this point of view, the term “scent supply” includes a stoppage from continuous supply. In the following description, the word “supplying fragrance” is used to help understanding, but the word “supplying fragrance” should be interpreted as a word indicating “manipulation of fragrance”. Similarly, the term “actuation” should be interpreted as a word that indicates an operation that affects human emotions.

  The control system 12 executes the setting of the operation amount according to the emotion data based on preset control characteristics. This control characteristic can be provided by a so-called if-then-else format program or by a trained model. The operation amount is given as a variable, command, or command for changing the emotion of the user by the actuator 11. In this embodiment, the operation amount is at least one of the type, intensity (concentration), supply duration, and supply interval of the scent component. The environment control device 10 provides an emotion operation device and executes an emotion operation method.

  The environment control device 10 of this embodiment is used in a bus vehicle, a railroad vehicle, or a ride share vehicle used by a plurality of users. The environment control device 10 adjusts the environment so as to improve the emotions of the plurality of users 1a and 1b. Note that the “Russell's ring model” is known as an index indicating human emotions. In the Russell's ring model, all human emotions are represented by a two-dimensional plane of “pleasant-unpleasant” and “wakefulness-drowsiness”. In this embodiment, the “Russell's ring model” is used for emotion input, emotion analysis, and emotion evaluation. The “pleasant-uncomfortable” axis is referred to as the comfort level, the comfort level axis, or the x-axis. The axis of “wakefulness-drowsiness” is called arousal level, arousal level axis, or y-axis.

  In FIG. 2, a basic process 160 executed by the control system 12 is shown. In step 161, the input device 3 displays an input screen. The input screen is provided as a pop-up display.

  FIG. 3 shows an input screen of the interface 31. The interface 31 provides an input unit 34 for biaxial input. The input unit 34 requests the user to input the arousal level and the comfort level. The input unit 34 separately obtains the awakening level input and the comfort level input. The input unit 34 includes a wakefulness input unit 34a for inputting a wakefulness level and a comfort level input unit 34b for inputting a comfort level. Both the arousal level input unit 34a and the comfort level input unit 34b are provided by a frequency selection unit that selects −2 to +2. The interface 31 provides a command input unit 35 for selecting automatic control or manual operation. The command input unit 35 includes an automatic control input unit 35a for requesting to automatically control the environment without inputting emotion. The command input unit 35 includes a manual operation input unit 35b that controls the actuator 11 by manual operation.

  The user 1 evaluates the feeling he / she feels from both the arousal level and the comfort level, selects the respective frequencies, and operates the awakening level input unit 34a and the comfort level input unit 34b. The control system 12 acquires the degree of arousal level specified by this operation and the level of comfort level. The selected degree of arousal level is also called arousal level information or arousal level data. The selected degree of comfort level is also called comfort level information or comfort level data. These arousal level information and comfort level information indicate the emotion of the user 1.

  It should be noted that displays such as “How arousal is?” And “How comfortable is?” Can be provided in various language displays. For example, the question “What is arousal level?” Can be replaced with the following questions: “Are you tired?”, “Is consciousness clear?”, “Do you feel sleepy?” The question “How comfortable is it?” Can be replaced with questions like “How do you feel now?”, “Are you feeling good?”, “Are you uncomfortable?” Further, these displays may be displayed by pictures such as figures, pictograms, and characters. For example, a graphic that displays the awakening level and the comfort level in an easily understandable manner can be used.

  Returning to FIG. 2, in step 162, an input operation on the input device 3 by the user 1 is acquired. In step 163, a branch process for responding to the operation of the command input unit 35 is executed. Here, if automatic control is selected, the process branches to YES. When automatic control is selected, the control system 12 controls the actuator 11 on the basis of preset control characteristics. In step 164, the environmental state is acquired from the plurality of sensors 33. The environmental state includes at least one of air temperature, atmospheric pressure, and airflow. In step 165, the operation amount of the actuator 11 is set based on automatic control. Here, since there is no “emotion input by the user”, the operation amount is set based solely on the environmental state. The branch in step 163 may branch to automatic control when there is no input from step 161 for a predetermined time. In the automatic control, the operation amount is set based on personal data indicating personal preferences learned in advance. Personal data is accumulated based on past operations. In this embodiment, an operation amount that can be regarded as having high reliability is reproduced when the accumulation amount exceeds a predetermined amount. Here, even when there is no input of emotion, data accumulated by past learning is searched using personal preference and environmental state as parameters. The operation amount obtained by this search is reproduced. For example, when the individual is a specific user and the environmental state is “low” in atmospheric pressure, the citrus scent is provided with a weak intensity based on the past history.

  In FIG. 4, “Russell's ring model” is shown. Generally, the environment control device 10 is required to improve the user's emotion, that is, improve the emotion. Therefore, it is desirable to shift the emotion at a certain point in time (current emotion) to the right as indicated by the thick arrow. In this case, the emotion indicated by the “Russell's ring model” exhibits three behaviors. The three behaviors are (1) a behavior that increases the comfort level while maintaining the arousal level, (2) a behavior that increases both the arousal level and the comfort level, and (3) a comfort level that increases while decreasing the arousal level. Including behavior. In this embodiment, the application target is a vehicle. Therefore, (4) a behavior of increasing the arousal level and maintaining the comfort level may be additionally used. The “current emotion” is also an initial emotion in the control.

  In many cases, it is required to increase the arousal level. In this case, it is desirable to move the emotion to the upper right (behavior (2) above). When changing human emotions with scents, the influence of individual preferences is great. However, in the automatic control, an initial value of the type of fragrance supplied based on a general tendency is set. In the automatic control, the intensity (concentration), duration, and supply interval of the scent to be supplied are set based on a general tendency. Furthermore, in this embodiment, in order to adapt to personal preference, the characteristics of automatic control are corrected according to information obtained by learning described later.

  Returning to FIG. 2, if the user's emotion is input by 2-axis input, the process proceeds to step 166. In step 166, input data indicating emotion at a certain point in time is acquired. The user's emotions at a certain point in time are also called current emotions. The input data is also called an input value. Step 166 provides an emotion acquisition unit that acquires arousal level data and comfort level data indicating the emotion of the user 1 from the input unit 34. That is, the degree of arousal and the degree of comfort are acquired as numerical values. When the user inputs the comfort level and the arousal level, the emotion of the user is grasped based on the “Russell's ring model”. Further, the control system 12 associates “emotion input by the user” with “individual” and stores them in the memory device. Information indicating an individual is acquired from a personal terminal as an input device.

  Note that the processing of steps 161, 162, and 166 may be executed before the user gets on the vehicle or after the user gets on the vehicle. For example, the user may input emotions before getting on the vehicle.

  In step 167, the environmental state is acquired from the plurality of sensors 33. The environmental state includes at least one of air temperature, atmospheric pressure, and airflow. In this embodiment, the environmental condition includes at least atmospheric pressure. The environmental state may be acquired using the communication function of the input device 3 without being acquired from the sensor 33. The environmental state may be acquired from a weather forecast site via a smartphone as a personal terminal, for example. Step 167 provides an environmental information acquisition unit that acquires an environmental state indicating the environment where the user 1 is located. The environmental state can be classified into several typical states. For example, the atmospheric pressure can be classified into three stages: low: 950 (HPa), medium 1000 (HPa), and high: 1050 (HPa). The number of classifications and the range occupied by each classification are set according to the influence on human emotions.

  FIG. 5 shows a model for learning emotions according to environmental conditions. User emotions are affected by environmental conditions. For example, in many cases, low atmospheric pressure will shift human emotions in an uncomfortable direction. The control system 12 associates “emotion input by the user” with “atmospheric pressure” and stores them in the memory device. When the device is used multiple times, emotions according to environmental conditions are learned. For example, in many cases, when a tendency of a person is indicated by a broken line and set as an initial value, the preference of a specific individual is corrected to a characteristic indicated by a thick solid line as a result of learning. Such learning makes it possible to set an operation amount suitable for the individual and the environmental state in the case of automatic control. In other words, specific personal preferences are reproduced. The data learned in this way is used for setting the operation amount when the same atmospheric pressure occurs again.

  Returning to FIG. 2, in step 168, the operation amount of the actuator 11 is set based on the “emotion input by the user” obtained in step 166. For example, if the “emotion input by the user” is “uncomfortable”, the operation amount is set so that the emotion of the user is shifted in a comfortable direction. Moreover, for example, different operation amounts can be set for the case of “strong discomfort” and the case of “light discomfort”. The operation amount can be set according to the transition distance on the “Russell's annular model”, for example. Such an operation amount can be set when the “emotion input by the user” is set as the “initial emotion”. The transition distance is, for example, the distance between the “initial emotion” and the “target emotion”.

  In step 169, the actuator 11 is actually operated. The operation amount of the actuator 11 is the operation amount set in step 165 or step 168. Thus, the user is given a predetermined type of scent at a predetermined intensity (concentration). Step 169 provides a control unit. The control unit controls the operation amount of the actuator 11 based on the arousal level data and the comfort level data acquired by the emotion acquisition unit.

  In step 170, the actually provided operations are accumulated. This process is also learning. In step 170, the relationship of “individual-emotion-environmental state-operation amount” is accumulated. As a result, personal preference is reflected in the operation amount. Moreover, the tendency of an individual's emotion according to an environmental state is reflected. Step 170 provides a learning unit. In one aspect, the learning unit learns the relationship between the individual, the emotion, and the operation amount by associating and storing information including at least three of the personal information, the input emotion, and the operation amount. In another aspect, the learning unit learns the relationship between the environmental state, the emotion, and the operation amount by associating and storing information including at least three of the environmental state, the input emotion, and the operation amount. Further, the learning unit learns the relationship between the individual, the environmental state, the emotion, and the operation amount by associating and storing information including the personal information and the input environmental state, emotion, and operation amount.

  In step 171, a reward is provided for an input operation by the user. This reward is a reward. This reward can include either “thank you” words, informative information from the cloud, or free additional features. The reward may be a coupon provided through the network or a point in shopping. Step 171 provides a reward providing unit. The reward providing unit provides a reward to the user 1 when the arousal level indicating the emotion and the comfort level are input from the user 1.

  FIG. 6 is an example of a screen for providing a reward. The information display 37 as a reward includes a word of thanks for the input operation. The information display 37 may include an access permission 37a to recommended information, for example. The information display 37 may include a free additional function, such as a function of supplying a new type of scent. In this embodiment, the emotion is accurately acquired by the input of the user 1. Therefore, providing rewards contributes to obtaining accurate emotions.

  Returning to FIG. 2, when the manual operation input unit 35b is operated in steps 161-163, the processing shifts to manual operation.

  FIG. 7 shows the manual operation process 260. In step 261, an input screen for manual operation is displayed. In step 262, an input operation is acquired. In step 263, the operation amount requested by the user is acquired. In step 264, the environmental state is acquired. In step 265, the relationship “individual-emotion-environment state-operation amount” is learned. In step 266, a reward is provided for the input operation.

  FIG. 8 shows an example of an input screen for manual operation. In this example, the operation amount input unit 36 includes a scent type input unit 36a and a scent intensity input unit 36b. The type corresponds to, for example, citrus, cardamom, mint, and the like.

  FIG. 9 shows an example of an input screen for manual operation. In this example, a wakefulness input unit 34a and a comfort level input unit 34b for requesting the user 1 to input emotions are provided.

  In FIG. 10, an explanatory diagram for explaining learning of manual input is shown. As described above, the personal preference can be more strongly reflected by manually operating both the operation amount and the emotion. MAP1 indicates a learning value before manual operation, and MAP2 indicates a learning value after manual operation. For example, MAP1 indicates that, when the citrus scent CTR is the position (emotion) of the cylindrical symbol illustrated, the citrus scent CTR is used at the intensity indicated by the size of the cylindrical symbol. In this case, the manual operation changes the use of the citrus scent CTR as indicated by the arrow. MAP2 indicates that the citrus scent CTR is used at the strength indicated by the size of the cylindrical symbol in the case of the cylindrical symbol position (emotion) illustrated. The operation amount by the manual operation is accumulated in the control system 12 and used for setting the operation amount in step 165 and step 168. The specific use is realized by correcting the control characteristics in steps 165 and 168 or reproducing the manual operation in steps 165 and 168.

  According to this embodiment, the user's emotion can be acquired by biaxial input including the arousal level and the comfort level. Since the user's emotion can be directly input from the user, it is possible to acquire an accurate emotion while suppressing the burden on the user. Moreover, since the degree of arousal and the degree of comfort are divided, information indicating the user's emotion can be acquired without making the user strongly aware of “input of emotion”. Since learning is performed by associating “input emotion” with “individual”, the preference of “individual” can be reflected in the operation amount. Specifically, an operation suitable for the personal preference is provided to the same individual. Further, since learning is performed by associating “input emotion” with “environmental state”, it is possible to reflect the tendency of emotion due to “environmental state” in the operation amount. Specifically, the tendency of the emotional change due to the change of the “atmospheric pressure” is reflected in the operation amount.

  According to this embodiment, since a user's emotion is acquired via a user's own sense, a user's emotion can be operated reliably. Specifically, the user's emotion can be manipulated in the direction of increasing the comfort level, that is, in the direction of improving. In addition, the user's emotion can be improved by providing the scent.

Second Embodiment This embodiment is a modified example based on the preceding embodiment. In the above embodiment, environmental conditions that are thought to affect the user's emotion, that is, weather information, are acquired. Instead, in this embodiment, the traffic congestion degree in the environment where the user is placed is acquired and used as the environmental state.

  FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing the traffic jam processing 360. The same steps as those of the preceding embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals. This embodiment aims to stabilize and calm a user's emotion when the vehicle is involved in a traffic jam. This environmental control device is activated when traffic jam information is obtained from traffic information or the like.

  In step 361, the atmospheric pressure and the degree of congestion are acquired as the environmental state. The degree of traffic congestion indicates the degree of traffic congestion. For example, a greater index is given as the traffic congestion becomes more serious. The degree of congestion is specified by a vehicle navigation device or an analysis of speed changes. In step 362, the operation amount is set based on the environmental state including the atmospheric pressure and the degree of congestion and the automatic control characteristics. In step 362, the operation amount is set based on the emotion input by the user and the environmental state including the atmospheric pressure and the congestion degree.

  In step 363, the atmospheric pressure and the degree of congestion are acquired as the environmental state. In step 364, the operation amount is set based on the data indicating the emotion input by the user 1. Step 364 is similar to step 168 of the previous embodiment. However, in step 364, the operation amount is set based on the emotion, the atmospheric pressure, and the degree of traffic jam. For example, when the degree of traffic congestion is high and the traffic function expected by the user 1 is not exhibited, the emotion of the user 1 is considered bad. In this case, it is considered that the emotion of the user 1 is hardly improved. Therefore, it is conceivable to adjust the operation amount so that the emotion of the user 1 is improved as the degree of congestion increases.

  FIG. 12 shows an example of feelings regarding the degree of congestion. A specific user among a plurality of users, that is, an individual's emotion may change for each degree of traffic jam. According to this embodiment, the tendency of a specific user is learned for each actual congestion level. The learned result is used to set the operation amount when the same degree of congestion occurs again.

  According to this embodiment, it is possible to provide an actuation that improves the user's emotion according to the degree of traffic congestion that strongly affects the user's emotion of the vehicle. In this embodiment, learning is performed using both weather information and traffic jam information included in the environmental state as parameters. Alternatively, learning may be executed using only weather information or traffic jam information as parameters.

Third Embodiment This embodiment is a modification in which the preceding embodiment is a basic form. In the above embodiment, the user's current emotion is input. Instead, in this embodiment, not only the user's current emotion but also the target emotion desired by the user 1 is input. The “desired emotion” is also the “target emotion”. The transition of the emotion indicated by the current emotion and the target emotion indicates the amount of improvement and the direction of improvement.

  FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing emotion improvement direction processing 460. Steps 162, 166, 167, 169, 170, 171 are the same as corresponding to the preceding embodiment. In step 461, an input screen is displayed to request the user to input emotions.

  FIG. 14 shows a screen for inputting the current emotion. The input unit 434 collectively obtains the input of the arousal level and the comfort level as a position on a plane indicated by two axes. The user 1 taps on the image corresponding to the “Russell's ring model” with a finger. An example of the tapped position is indicated by a circle. The arousal level input unit 434a is provided by the coordinate input in the vertical axis direction. The comfort level input unit 434b is provided by the coordinate input in the horizontal axis direction.

  Returning to FIG. 13, in step 462, the process branches according to the operation by the user 1. If the operation is AUTO indicating “automatic control”, the process proceeds to step 463. If the operation is VALUE indicating the input of “current emotion”, the process proceeds to step 464. If the operation is SKIP indicating “next”, the process proceeds to step 465. In step 463, automatic control is provided. This automatic control can utilize the steps 164 and 165 described above. In step 464, the arousal level data and comfort level data acquired in step 167 are positioned on the “Russell's ring model”. Thereby, the present emotion of the user 1 is acquired. Step 464 provides a current emotion acquisition unit that acquires the current emotion of the user 1 by the emotion acquisition unit.

  In step 465, an input screen is displayed in order to ask the user to input an improvement direction of the desired emotion desired by the user. When the user desires to improve his / her feelings, the above (1), (2), (3) or (4) can be selected. In this step 465, at least an input of the desired improvement direction desired by the user is obtained. In step 466, an input value is obtained. Here, data indicating the desired improvement direction is acquired.

  FIG. 15 shows an example of an input screen for inputting the improvement direction. In this example, an improvement direction input unit 434f that indicates an improvement in the arousal level indicated by the word “awakening” is used. The term “awakening” corresponds to the above (2) or (4). In this embodiment, it is assumed that the user 1 strongly demands the behavior of (4). In this example, an improvement direction input unit 434g indicating an improvement in the comfort level indicated by the word “relax” is used. The term “relax” corresponds to (1), (2) or (3) above. In this embodiment, it is assumed that the user 1 strongly demands the behavior of (1). In this way, the control system 12 acquires data on the desired improvement direction desired by the user 1 from the user 1. In this case, the behavior described above is also referred to as emotional transition.

  FIG. 16 shows another example of the input screen for inputting the improvement direction. In this example, the user 1 specifies the target emotion by the “Russell's ring model”. In this case, the transition of the emotion from the “current emotion” input earlier to the “target emotion” input later indicates the desired improvement direction. For example, as in FIG. 14, the user 1 taps on the image corresponding to the “Russell's ring model” with a finger. Also in this case, emotion is input as a position on a plane indicated by two axes. The “current emotion” and the “target emotion” may be specified by the movement of the fingertip on the input screen. In this case, “current emotion” and an improvement direction desired by the user are input by an operation called swipe. From another viewpoint, an improvement direction desired by the user and a “target emotion” as a reaching point are input by an operation called swipe. The arousal level input unit 34a is provided by vertical coordinate input. The comfort level input unit 34b is provided by coordinate input in the horizontal axis direction. In this way, the control system 12 acquires data on the desired improvement direction desired by the user 1 from the user 1. In the case of FIG. 16, the input unit 434 is used to input a target emotion.

  FIG. 17 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the improvement direction. In this embodiment, as indicated by a thick arrow, a desired improvement direction from “current emotion” to “target emotion” is used. The control characteristics in the automatic control can be initially set in the above (1), (2) or (3).

  FIG. 18 shows an example of the arrangement of the switch 34 m for input in the interface 31. An example of the arrangement of the switch 34m that can be used in the “Russell's annular model” is shown. The interface 31 provides a plurality of switches 34m. The plurality of switches 34m are indicated by circles. For example, when the switch 34n corresponding to drowsiness is operated, the data of the intersection of the circle and the linear axis becomes the declared value. The arrangement of the plurality of switches 34m can be used in the embodiments disclosed in this specification.

  Returning to FIG. 13, in step 467, it is determined whether or not a manual operation (MANUAL) is instructed. If manual operation is instructed (YES), the process proceeds to step 468. In step 468, manual operation is provided. Manual operation can be provided by a manual operation process 260. The branch in step 467 may branch to NO even when there is no input for a predetermined time from the display in step 465.

  If manual operation is not selected in step 467 (NO), the process branches to step 469. In step 469, the input value acquired in step 466 is positioned on the “Russell's ring model”. Here, starting from the “current emotion” acquired in step 166, the desired improvement direction data acquired in step 466 is reflected on the “Russell's ring model”. As a result, the transition from the current emotion to the target emotion is identified. Step 469 provides a desired improvement direction acquisition unit. The desired improvement direction acquisition unit acquires at least a desired improvement direction desired by the user.

  In step 470, the operation amount of the actuator 11 is set based on the emotion transition identified in step 469. Step 469 provides a controller. The control unit controls the operation amount of the actuator 11 based on the current emotion acquired by the current emotion acquisition unit and the desired improvement direction acquired by the desired improvement direction acquisition unit. Using FIG. 16, both “current emotion” and “target emotion” may be acquired. In this case, the control unit controls the operation amount of the actuator 11 based on the transition of the emotion from the “current emotion” to the “target emotion”. Step 470 provides a direction controller that controls the direction of improvement. In step 470, the operation amount of the actuator is controlled based on the arousal level data, the comfort level data, and the desired improvement direction.

  FIG. 19 is a flowchart showing the evaluation process 560. The evaluation process 560 is started when the environmental control by the environmental control apparatus 10 ends. The evaluation process 560 may be activated in response to an instruction from the user 1 after the user 1 leaves the vehicle. The evaluation process 560 is a process for the user 1 to evaluate the control by the environment control device 10 and adjust the control.

  In step 561, input of emotion at the end of environmental control is requested. The user 1 inputs an emotion at the end of the environmental control as requested. This emotion at the end is also an evaluation of environmental control. In step 562, the final emotion of the user 1 is acquired. The final emotion is the emotion at the end of environmental control. Step 562 provides an evaluation unit. The evaluation unit acquires the evaluation of the operation amount by the user 1 after the control by the control unit.

  FIG. 20 shows an example of an input screen for inputting an evaluation. The question “What is the emotion at the end (evaluation)?” Prompts the user 1 to input an evaluation. The user 1 inputs the arousal level and the comfort level as positions on a plane indicated by two axes.

  FIG. 21 shows another example of an input screen for inputting an evaluation. The evaluation may be input according to evaluation degrees such as “bad”, “intermediate”, and “good”.

  Returning to FIG. 19, in step 563, the control characteristics of the control system 12 are corrected according to the evaluation acquired in step 562. Here, the relationship of “individual-emotion-emotion state-operation amount” is corrected. In other words, the result of learning control by the control system 12 is corrected. For example, when the learning value is biased from a normal value by learning, or when the evaluation is bad, the learning value is corrected in a direction to suppress the bias. If the evaluation is good, the learning value is corrected in a direction that increases the bias. Step 563 provides a correction unit. The correction unit corrects the learned relationship based on the evaluation acquired by the evaluation unit.

  An example of a correction characteristic is performed by step 564 and step 565. In step 564, the evaluation is converted to a weight. In step 565, the setting characteristic of the manipulated variable and / or the initial value is corrected according to the converted weight. In step 565, for example, the control characteristic in the automatic control is corrected according to the weight. In step 565, for example, the setting characteristics in steps 168 and 470 are corrected.

  FIG. 22 shows an example of the evaluation process. For example, it is assumed that the emotion of the user 1 is at the initial emotion position at the start of environmental control by the environmental control device 10 and the emotion desired by the user 1 is the target emotion position. When the environmental control by the environmental control device 10 ends, if the emotion of the user 1 reaches the emotion at the end, the improvement effect EF (xy) indicated by the solid line arrow is obtained. However, as indicated by the broken-line arrow, the deviation DF (xy) is left as a shortage.

  FIG. 23 shows another example of the evaluation process. The improvement direction indicated by the initial emotion and the target emotion is indicated by a two-dot chain arrow. On the other hand, the effect actually generated is a solid arrow. In this case, it is desirable that the improvement effect EF (xy) is evaluated as the length with respect to the two-dot chain line arrow. In this case, in order to change the emotion at the end to the target emotion, the deviation DF (xy) is left as an insufficiency, as indicated by the dashed arrow.

  In FIG. 24, the characteristic for converting the evaluation into the weight is shown by a graph. The improvement effect EF (xy) is converted into the weight K1 by a function having a positive slope. Therefore, the greater the improvement effect EF (xy), the larger the weight K1 is set.

  In FIG. 25, the characteristic for converting the evaluation into the weight is shown by a graph. The deviation DF (xy) is also a residual deviation. The deviation DF (xy) is converted to a weight K1 by a function having a negative slope. Therefore, the larger the deviation DF (xy), the smaller the weight K2 is set.

  In FIG. 26, the relationship between the evaluation and the operation amount is shown. In the figure, the symbols of sphere, cube, and cylinder indicate the operation amount. For example, the shape of a sphere, cube, or cylinder indicates the type of operation. For example, the type of scent to be supplied is shown. The size of the sphere, cube, or cylinder indicates the size of the operation. For example, the intensity of the supplied scent. A citrus scent CTR is shown as a specific scent. When the citrus scent CTR is supplied by the environment control apparatus 10, the evaluation obtained in step 562 is an evaluation for the citrus scent CTR. In this case, the improvement effect EF (xy) and the deviation DF (xy) indicating the evaluation set the intensity of the citrus scent CTR based on the evaluation function of the following expression. Here, the greater the improvement effect EF (xy), the greater the operation amount. The greater the deviation DF (xy), the smaller the manipulated variable. Note that f () means a predetermined function.

St (n) = K1 · f (EF (xy)) − K2 · f (DF (xy))
In this embodiment, the operation amount can be changed by selecting manual operation. For example, the user 1 can manually set the type by selecting manual operation. In addition, after the data is accumulated by the above learning, the operation amount by learning can be used. For example, a scent having a high operation amount St can be preferentially activated.

  According to this embodiment, the current emotion and at least the desired improvement direction are acquired, and the operation amount is set based on these. For this reason, the operation amount can be provided not only in the improvement direction set in advance but also in the improvement direction designated by the user. Moreover, after the environmental control by the environmental control device 10, the evaluation from the user 1 is executed. The environment control device 10 corrects the control characteristics based on the evaluation from the user 1 so as to adjust the next operation amount. Gradually, automatic adjustment to the control adapted to the user's 1 preference is possible. In particular, the evaluation process is based on various emotions and weights based on the initial emotion, the target emotion, and the final emotion that has actually been reached. Adjust. For this reason, the past control history is reflected in future control, and the effect of control is enhanced. In particular, various deviations include an improvement effect EF (xy) that changes the weight that changes the future operation amount in the plus direction, and a residual deviation DF (xy) that changes the weight that changes the future operation amount in the minus direction. including. For this reason, as the control is repeated, a feedback effect in a direction in which the user's emotion is improved is obtained.

Fourth Embodiment This embodiment is a modified example based on the preceding embodiment. In the above-described embodiment, each data of a plurality of users is learned in the previous control and used in the subsequent control. In addition to this, when data regarding a specific user is accumulated in a predetermined amount or more, automatic control after at least partially reproducing the previous control may be executed.

  FIG. 27 is a flowchart showing the personal adaptation automatic control process 660. This process is executed when automatic control (AUTO) is selected. In step 660, it is determined whether or not the personal map for the current user has been completed. The personal map indicates learning data that reflects the user's personal preferences as shown in FIG. If the personal map is not completed in step 661, the process proceeds to normal processing. The normal process is the process 160 or 460 described in the preceding embodiment. These processes 160 and 460 provide an accumulation process for increasing the completeness of the personal map.

  In the control from step 167 to step 169, the control preferred by the user 1 is reproduced. For example, when the user 1 instructs the improvement direction, the scent preferred by the user 1 is supplied. After going from step 167 to step 169, an evaluation process 560 for inputting the evaluation of the user 1 is executed. The evaluation process 560 is executed after a certain amount of actuation is provided by the environment control device 10. The evaluation process 560 may be executed when, for example, the continuous use time of the vehicle exceeds a predetermined time. The evaluation process 560 may be executed, for example, when the environmental control by the environmental control device 10 is finished. The user's emotion input in the evaluation process 560 can also be called a final emotion after the control.

  In step 662, it is determined whether or not the remaining deviation DF (xy) exceeds a threshold value TH. If TH <DF (xy) is satisfied (YES), the process proceeds to step 663. If TH <DF (xy) is not satisfied (NO), the process proceeds to step 171. The processing in step 662 can also be referred to as evaluation processing for evaluating the degree of divergence between the target emotion and the final emotion indicating the control result. The deviation DF (xy) indicates the degree of divergence. The threshold value TH defines a boundary between an allowable deviation degree and an unacceptable deviation degree. In step 663, the determination condition in step 661 is set so as to increase the degree of completion of the personal map. In step 663, the determination condition in step 661 is set so as to branch to the normal process in the next control. In other words, when the deviation DF (xy) exceeds the threshold value TH, the evaluation by the user 1 is considered bad. This is considered to be caused by insufficient learning of the personal map. Therefore, in step 663, learning of the personal map is increased. For example, in the control after passing through step 663, the process branches from step 661 to processes 160 and 460 as normal processes. By repeating this branch at least once or more, the completeness of the personal map is increased. On the other hand, when the deviation DF (xy) is lower than the threshold value TH, the evaluation by the user 1 is considered good. In this case, the control based on the personal map of the user 1 is continued.

  FIG. 28 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the learned operation amount for one user (individual). The initial value set in the map is indicated by a broken line. The characteristic corresponding to the personal map after repeating a predetermined number of learning is indicated by a thick solid line. The emotions Z1, Z2, and Z3 of a specific user (individual) are different for each environmental state (atmospheric pressure). This tendency can be regarded as a tendency of a specific user, that is, an individual. When the target emotions a1, a2, a3 are set, different actions Z1-a1, Z1-a2, Z3-a3 are provided. These actions Z1-a1, Z1-a2, and Z3-a3 have different current emotions. It can be said that these actuations Z1-a1, Z1-a2, and Z3-a3 have different emotion transition vectors. The scent operation amount (including the type and intensity, for example) for providing these actuations Z1-a1, Z1-a2, and Z3-a3 is selected from the stored personal map. Since the accumulated personal map reflects data weighted by past evaluations, an optimum operation amount is set for a specific user 1. Similarly, when the target emotions b1, b2, and b3 are set, the optimum operation amount is set corresponding to each actuation.

Fifth Embodiment This embodiment is a modified example based on the preceding embodiment. In the said embodiment, the one environmental control apparatus 10 which belongs to one vehicle is illustrated. Instead, in this embodiment, the plurality of environment control devices 10a and 10b belonging to each of the plurality of vehicles are controlled to match the personal data associated with the user 1.

  In FIG. 29, the emotion input device 2 acquires an emotion that the user 1 recognizes and inputs to the mobile terminal 3. One or a plurality of remote controllers (R-CNT) 16 installed remotely constitute a system called a cloud. The cloud is commonly used as a system for storing data and / or programs from a plurality of vehicles VH-A and VH-B. The cloud stores, for example, personal data. The vehicle VH-A and the vehicle VH-B can use personal data stored in the cloud. The vehicle VH-A and the vehicle VH-B are different from each other with respect to the moving function. The vehicle VH-A and the vehicle VH-B can move independently of each other, for example. Vehicle VH-A and vehicle VH-B may differ in function. The vehicle VH-A and the vehicle VH-B differ in at least one of, for example, the size of the room, the number of people that can be used, and the provided actuation. Here, vehicles VH-A and VH-B are provided by a plurality of shared vehicles that can be used by an unspecified number of users.

  The vehicle VH-A has a local controller 15a. The vehicle VH-A can include a plurality of actuators 11a and 11a for providing different actuations to a plurality of users. The vehicle VH-B has a local controller 15b. The vehicle VH-B can include a plurality of actuators 11b, 11b, and 11b for providing different actuations to a plurality of users. The actuators 11a and 11b provide personal operations such as scent, air conditioning, and massage to a user who uses one sheet, for example.

  Personal data includes a history of the activism of the individual and a record indicating the personal preference. The cloud provides a memory device that stores a large amount of personal data regarding a large number of users. The local controllers 15a and 15b and the input device 3 also have memory devices that store personal data regarding users who use the corresponding vehicles VH-A and VH-B. The input device 3 is a telephone terminal called a smartphone as a personal terminal. The input terminal 3 itself has a calculation function and a data storage function.

  In the case of illustration, the user 1 is using vehicle VH-A. During this time, the operation amount for the user 1 is learned as personal data. Personal data is stored in the input terminal 3 and / or the cloud. When the user 1 repeatedly uses the vehicle VH-A, the personal data acquires a large amount of information. Thus, the preference of the user 1 is realized in the vehicle VH-A.

  As indicated by the thick arrow, the user 1 may transfer from the vehicle VH-A to the vehicle VH-B. In this case, for example, the user 1 moves to a broken line position. The local controller 15b of the vehicle VH-B acquires the personal data of the user 1 from the cloud via data communication. The local controller 15b executes a control method via the cloud. The control method includes a step of recognizing an individual by the input device 3, a step of requesting the personal data of the user 1 from the cloud, a step of receiving the personal data from the cloud, and controlling the actuator 11b using the personal data. And a step of performing. The local controller 15b can provide an action to the user 1 based on the personal data accumulated in the previous vehicle VH-A.

  Alternatively, the input device 3 may store personal data. In this case, the local controller 15b acquires the personal data of the user 1 from the input device 3 when the input device 3 moves from the vehicle VH-A to the vehicle VH-B.

  In this embodiment, the user 1 can receive an actuation according to the emotion of the user 1 regardless of whether the vehicle VH-A is used or the vehicle VH-B is used. Further, the operation can be provided to a large number of users having registered personal data without being limited by the storage capacity of the local controllers 15a and 15b. A large amount of personal data can be handled via the cloud.
