Notification system, notification device, notification method, and recording medium
View Patent ↗A notification system includes a first obtainer, a second obtainer, an identifier, a determiner, and an outputter. The first obtainer obtains notification information including a sender of a notification and a receiver of the notification. The second obtainer obtains hearer information including a hearer of the notification. The identifier identifies a relationship between the sender, the receiver, and the hearer, based on the notification information and the hearer information obtained. The determiner determines designated names used to call the sender and the receiver, based on the relationship identified by the identifier. The outputter outputs, to a notification device, a first instruction causing notification device to output a first message indicating that the notification has been made. In the first message, the sender and the receiver are represented by the designated names determined by the determiner.
1 . A notification system comprising:
a first obtainer that obtains notification information including a sender of a notification and a receiver of the notification;
a second obtainer that obtains hearer information including a hearer of the notification;
an identifier that identifies a relationship between the sender, the receiver, and the hearer, based on the notification information obtained by the first obtainer and the hearer information obtained by the second obtainer;
a determiner that determines designated names used to call the sender and the receiver, based on the relationship identified by the identifier; and
an outputter that outputs, to a notification device, a first instruction causing the notification device to output a first message indicating that there is the notification, wherein
in the first message, the sender and the receiver are represented by the designated names determined by the determiner.
2 . The notification system according to claim 1 , wherein
the second obtainer obtains the hearer information that identifies the hearer, based on a location of the notification device.
3 . The notification system according to claim 1 , wherein
the second obtainer obtains the hearer information that identifies the hearer, based on a result of recognizing a person near the notification device.
4 . The notification system according to claim 1 , wherein
a plurality of notification devices are provided, each being the notification device, and
the outputter outputs the first instruction to one of the plurality of notification devices near which a person is present.
5 . The notification system according to claim 1 , wherein
the outputter further outputs, to the notification device, a second instruction causing the notification device to output a second message indicating content of the notification.
6 . A notification device comprising:
an instruction obtainer that obtains the first instruction from the notification system according to claim 1 ; and
a notification outputter that outputs the first message, when the instruction obtainer obtains the first instruction.
7 . A notification method comprising:
obtaining notification information including a sender of a notification and a receiver of the notification;
obtaining hearer information including a hearer of the notification;
identifying a relationship between the sender, the receiver, and the hearer, based on the notification information and the hearer information obtained;
determining designated names used to call the sender and the receiver, based on the relationship identified; and
outputting, to a notification device, a first instruction causing the notification device to output a first message indicating that the notification has been made, wherein
in the first message, the sender and the receiver are represented by the designated names determined.
8 . A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for causing one or more processors to execute the notification method according to claim 7 .
