INFORMATION PROVIDING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROVIDING PROGRAM, INFORMATION PROVIDING SERVER, AND INFORMATION PROVIDING METHOD
First Claim
1. An information providing device comprising:
- a device manager that acquires information of a connected device;
a history database that stores the information acquired by the device manager as a history;
a function estimator that estimates a function to be presented to a user, based on the information of the connected device and the history stored in the history database;
an availability determinator that determines availability of the function based on a determination condition of the availability corresponding to the function estimated by the function estimator; and
an output processor that presents the estimated function to the user when the availability determinator determines that the function estimated by the function estimator is available.

Abstract
An information providing device includes: a device management unit acquiring information of a connected device; a history database storing the information acquired by the device management unit as a history; a function estimation unit estimating a function to be presented to a user, based on the information of the connected device and the history stored in the history database; an availability determination unit determining availability of the function estimated by the function estimation unit; and an output unit outputting the function to be presented to the user, based on an indication of the function estimation unit. The function estimation unit confirms that the estimated function is a function to be presented to the user and causes the output unit to output the function when the availability determination unit determines that the estimated function is available.

10. An information providing server comprising:
-
a communicator that acquires, from an on-board device, information of a device connected to the on-board device; a history database that stores the information acquired by the communicator as a history; a function estimator that estimates a function to be presented to a user, based on the information acquired by the communicator and the history stored in the history database; and an availability determinator that determines availability of the function based on a determination condition of the availability corresponding to the function estimated by the function estimator, wherein the function is determined the function to be presented to the user when the availability determinator determines that the estimated function is available.

11. An information providing method comprising:
-
a step in which a communicator acquires, from an on-board device, information of a device connected to the on-board device; a step in which a function estimator estimates a function to be presented to a user, based on the information acquired by the communicator and a history stored in a history database storing the information acquired by the communicator as the history; a step in which an availability determinator determines availability of the function based on a determination condition of the availability corresponding to the function estimated by the function estimator; and a step in which an output processor presents the function to the user when the availability determinator determines that the estimated function is available.
