Abstract

There is provided an information processing device that makes it possible to update and report the destination or route to be presented depending on the situation of a user who shares the situation or destination of another user, the information processing device including: a processing unit configured to perform action support for a subsequent schedule to be optimal for each of a plurality of target users on the basis of user situation in indoor environment acquired for each target user that participates in the subsequent schedule.

Claims

1. An information processing device comprising:

a processing unit configured to perform action support for a subsequent schedule to be optimal for each of a plurality of target users on the basis of user situation in indoor environment acquired for each target user that participates in the subsequent schedule.

2. The information processing device according to claim 1,

wherein the processing unit presents at least one movement route to a destination of the subsequent schedule to the target user.

3. The information processing device according to claim 2,

wherein the processing unit generates a movement route of the target user, when the target user is acting together with another user prior to the subsequent schedule, on the basis of a degree of intimacy between users.

4. The information processing device according to claim 2,

wherein the processing unit generates a movement route in which the target user joins another target user before the target user arrives at the destination of the subsequent schedule on the basis of a current position of each of the target users.

5. The information processing device according to claim 1,

wherein the processing unit determines the subsequent destination on the basis of a current position of each of the target users and a start time of the subsequent schedule.

6. The information processing device according to claim 5,

wherein the processing unit determines the subsequent destination using weighting set for the target user or a candidate for the destination of the subsequent schedule.

7. The information processing device according to claim 6,

wherein the weighting for the target user is set on the basis of at least one of current busyness of the target user or a type of a current action.

8. The information processing device according to claim 6,

wherein the weighting for the candidate for the destination is set on the basis of at least one of comfort or convenience of the destination.

9. The information processing device according to claim 5,

wherein the processing unit presents a candidate for the subsequent destination, when there is a predetermined time or more until the start time of the subsequent schedule, on the basis of the current position of the target user or a current time.

10. The information processing device according to claim 1, further comprising:

a subsequent action determination unit configured to determine the subsequent schedule,

wherein the subsequent action determination unit determines the subsequent schedule on the basis of at least one of pre-registered schedule information or an action estimated on the basis of the user situation.

11. The information processing device according to claim 10,

wherein the subsequent action determination unit estimates a subsequent action of the target user on the basis of at least one of an action recognition result or positioning information analyzed on the basis of the user situation.

12. The information processing device according to claim 1, further comprising:

a target person selection unit configured to select a target user that participates in the subsequent schedule,

wherein the target person selection unit selects the target user on the basis of at least one of pre-registered schedule information or an action estimated on the basis of the user situation.

13. An information processing method comprising:

performing, by a processor, action support for a subsequent schedule to be optimal for each of a plurality of target users on the basis of user situation in indoor environment acquired for each target user that participates in the subsequent schedule.

14. A program causing a computer to function as an information processing device comprising:

a processing unit configured to perform action support for a subsequent schedule to be optimal for each of a plurality of target users on the basis of user situation in indoor environment acquired for each target user that participates in the subsequent schedule.
