File management method
There is provided a technique for facilitating file marking by adding attribute information to the file according to read of biometric information. Biometric information is read from a living body moving and attribute information abased on the biometric information is added to the file. According to the biometric information which has been read, the direction of the movement of the living body is judged. When the movement direction coincides with a predetermined direction, the file is searched according to the biometric information.
1. A file management device comprising:
a reading unit to read biometric information of a body and to detect a moving direction of the body;
one or more processors configured to:
register a first biometric information of a body of a first user read by the reading unit in a storage device;
add attribute information based on the first biometric information to a first file;
judge whether or not a second biometric information of the body of the first user read by the reading unit is coincident with the first biometric information;
determine whether the moving direction of the body for the reading unit in a reading operation based on the second biometric information is a first moving direction or a second moving direction when the second biometric information is coincident with the first biometric information, the first moving direction is a direction that the body moves toward a first direction from a second direction and the second moving direction is a direction that the body moves toward the second direction from the first direction;
search the first file associated with the attribute information when the moving direction of the body is the first moving direction while search a second file when the moving direction of the body is the second moving direction, the second file being different from the first file; and
a display unit to display, when the second biometric information is not coincident with the first biometric information, a list of accessible files.
2. The file management device according to claim 1 , wherein said reading unit sequentially reads the biometric information of the body of user as the body moves.
3. The file management device according to claim 1 , wherein said reading unit is a linear sensor and sequentially linearly reads the biometric information of the body of user moving in a direction orthogonal to a longitudinal portion of said sensor.
4. The file management device according to claim 1 , wherein the biometric information is fingerprint information.
5. A file management method comprising:
registering a first biometric information of a body of a first user in a storage device;
adding attribute information based on the first biometric information to a first file;
judging whether or not a second biometric information of the body of the first user read by a reading unit is coincident with the first biometric information;
determining whether a moving direction of the body in a reading operation based on the second biometric information is a first moving direction or a second moving direction when the second biometric information is coincident with the first biometric information, the first moving direction is a direction that the body moves toward a first direction from a second direction and the second moving direction is a direction that the body moves toward the second direction from the first direction;
searching, by a computer, the first file associated with the attribute information when the moving direction of the body is the first moving direction while search a second file when the moving direction of the body is the second moving direction, the second file being different from the first file; and
displaying, when the second biometric information is not coincident with the first biometric information, a list of accessible files.
6. The file management method according to claim 5 , wherein said reading unit sequentially reads a biometric information of body of user as the body moves.
7. The file management method according to claim 5 , wherein said reading unit is a linear sensor and sequentially linearly reads a biometric information of the body of user moving in a direction orthogonal to a longitudinal portion of a linear sensor.
8. The file management method according to claim 5 , wherein the biometric information is fingerprint information.
9. The file management method according to claim 5 , further comprising:
displaying, when the second biometric information is not judged by the judging to be coincident with the first biometric information, a list of accessible files.
10. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium on which is recorded a file management program making a computer execute processes comprising:
registering a first biometric information of a body of a first user in a storage device;
adding attribute information based on the first biometric information to a first file;
judging whether or not a second biometric information of the body of the first user read by a reading unit is coincident with the first biometric information;
determining whether a moving direction of the body in a reading operation based on the second biometric information is a first moving direction or a second moving direction when the second biometric information is coincident with the first biometric information, the first moving direction is a direction that the body moves toward a first direction from a second direction and the second moving direction is a direction that the body moves toward the second direction from the first direction;
searching, by a computer, the first file associated with the attribute information when the moving direction of the body is the first moving direction while search a second file when the moving direction of the body is the second moving direction, the second file being different from the first file; and
displaying, when the second biometric information is not coincident with the first biometric information, a list of accessible files.
11. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 10 , wherein said reading unit sequentially linearly reads a information of the body of user as the body moves.
12. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 10 , wherein said reading unit is a linear sensor and sequentially linearly reads a biometric information of the body of user moving in a direction orthogonal to a longitudinal portion of a linear sensor.
13. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 10 , wherein the biometric information is fingerprint information.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 10 , further comprising:
displaying, when the second biometric information is not judged by the judging to be coincident with the first biometric information, a list of accessible files.
