Description

This invention relates to an emission data management system and an emission data management method for managing emission data related to waste products. To manage the user's health status, devices are known that estimate the characteristics of excrement via image sensors installed in the toilet. Patent Document 1 discloses a toilet device configured to acquire still images of falling stool using an image sensor (camera) to estimate the characteristics of the stool. Japanese Patent Publication No. 2017-137707 Figure 1 is a block diagram showing the functional configuration of the emission data management system according to an embodiment.Figure 2 is a flowchart of the discharge data transmission operation of the discharge data management system according to the embodiment.Figure 3 is the first figure showing an example of transmission data transmitted in the transmission step according to the embodiment.Figure 4 is the second figure showing an example of transmission data transmitted in the transmission step according to the embodiment.Figure 5 is a flowchart of the data management operation of the discharge data management system according to the embodiment.Figure 6 shows an example of viewable data from the discharge data management system according to the embodiment. The embodiments will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. Note that the embodiments described below are all comprehensive or specific examples. The numerical values, shapes, materials, components, arrangement and connection configurations of components, steps, and step order shown in the following embodiments are examples only and are not intended to limit the present invention. Furthermore, components in the following embodiments that are not described in an independent claim will be described as optional components. Please note that each diagram is a schematic representation and not necessarily a strictly accurate depiction. Furthermore, in each diagram, substantially identical components are given the same reference numerals, and redundant explanations may be omitted or simplified. (Embodiment) [composition] The following describes the emission data management system according to the embodiment. Figure 1 is a block diagram showing the functional configuration of the emission data management system according to the embodiment. The discharge data management system 10 according to this embodiment comprises an electric toilet seat integrated toilet 20, a router 30, a server 40, and a mobile terminal 50. In the waste disposal data management system 10, the electric toilet seat integrated toilet unit 20 communicates with the server 40 by connecting to the wide-area communication network 60 via the router 30. For example, the electric toilet seat integrated toilet unit 20 transmits waste disposal data related to the user's waste, obtained by the electric toilet seat integrated toilet unit 20, to the server 40. This allows the server 40 to manage the user's waste disposal data. The user can monitor the waste disposal data through the mobile terminal 50 by accessing the server 40 using a mobile terminal 50 with a dedicated application program installed. For example, by monitoring waste data, users can understand fluctuations in various parameters related to their own waste or the waste of family members who share the electric toilet seat 20, and can grasp changes in health conditions reflected in the waste. In this way, the waste data management system 10 can function, for example, as a monitoring system, providing users with a monitoring service. Furthermore, by introducing the waste data management system 10 to nursing care facilities, it becomes possible for nursing care staff and doctors at affiliated medical institutions to understand the health status of residents using the facility. In order to monitor the state of waste, it is necessary to distinguish and store (i.e., remember) waste data from the same user from waste data from other users. Therefore, in this embodiment, waste data is linked to a user ID used to identify the user who performed the waste, preventing other users from identifying them. However, in some cases, waste data may be generated where the corresponding user is unknown, such as due to a failure to obtain the user ID. In this embodiment, for such waste data where the user is unknown, it is possible to manually input the user who performed the waste by referring to the waste data later. This reduces the amount of waste data that cannot be used for monitoring changes in health status due to missing user IDs, enabling more appropriate monitoring of changes in the user's health status. The following describes the components of the discharge data management system 10. While the following description uses feces discharged by the user as an example, the contents of this disclosure can also be applied to urine and menstrual blood discharged by the user. Note that discharge may sometimes be referred to as
