Abstract

Provided is a technique capable of generating data of a screen suitable for each operation terminal displaying information of an image sensor. An image sensor system has an image sensor that performs an examination of a product and an operation terminal for externally operating the image sensor. In addition, the image sensor system includes a recognition part configured to specify user information of a user who uses the operation terminal and device information of the operation terminal, a determination part configured to determine display information on the examination displayed on a display part used by the operation terminal and a disposition of the display information on the display part on the basis of the specified user information and the specified device information, and a generation part configured to generate data for displaying the display information in the determined disposition on the display part of the operation terminal.

Claims (34)

1. An image sensor system having an image sensor that performs an examination of a product and an operation terminal for externally operating the image sensor, the image sensor system comprising:

a recognition part configured to specify user information of a user who uses the operation terminal and device information of the operation terminal;

a determination part configured to determine display information on the examination displayed on a display part used by the operation terminal and a disposition of the display information on the display part on the basis of both of the specified user information and the specified device information; and

a generation part configured to generate data for displaying the display information in the determined disposition on the display part of the operation terminal,

wherein the device information comprises device type indicating a type of the operation terminal, and

the determination part specifies a user category related to the user of the image sensor on the basis of the specified user information and determines items and a screen layout of the display information displayed on the display part on the basis of a combination of the specified user category and the device information.

2. The image sensor system according to claim 1 , wherein the device information comprises performance information for specifying at least one of a screen size of the display part used by the operation terminal, a resolution of the display part, a device name of the operation terminal, and an operating system executed by the operation terminal, and

the determination part determines the disposition of the display information on the display part on the basis of the performance information comprised in the specified device information.

3. The image sensor system according to claim 2 , wherein the disposition of the display information is determined on the basis of presence or absence of at least an item related to the examination.

4. The image sensor system according to claim 2 , wherein the disposition of the display information comprises a size of a display area for displaying the display information on the display part and a position of the display area on the display part.

5. The image sensor system according to claim 2 , wherein the recognition part acquires user agent information from the operation terminal and specifies the device information from the user agent information.

6. The image sensor system according to claim 1 , wherein the category comprises a designer of the image sensor, and

in a case where the specified category is the designer of the image sensor, the display information comprises information on a flow of a process executed by the image sensor.

7. The image sensor system according to claim 6 , wherein the category comprises a manager of the image sensor, and

in a case where the specified category is the manager of the image sensor, the display information comprises statistical information on the image sensor.

8. The image sensor system according to claim 6 , wherein the disposition of the display information is determined on the basis of presence or absence of at least an item related to the examination.

9. The image sensor system according to claim 1 , wherein the category comprises a manager of the image sensor, and

in a case where the specified category is the manager of the image sensor, the display information comprises statistical information on the image sensor.

10. The image sensor system according to claim 1 , wherein the disposition of the display information is determined on the basis of presence or absence of at least an item related to the examination.

11. The image sensor system according to claim 1 , wherein the disposition of the display information comprises a size of a display area for displaying the display information on the display part and a position of the display area on the display part.

12. The image sensor system according to claim 1 , wherein the recognition part acquires user agent information from the operation terminal and specifies the device information from the user agent information.

13. An image sensor used for the image sensor system according to claim 1 , wherein the image sensor has at least one functional part of the recognition part, the determination part, and the generation part,

the image sensor further comprises a transmission part configured to transmit information processed by the functional part comprised in the image sensor to an outside.

14. The image sensor system according to claim 1 , wherein the type of the operation terminal comprises a PC, a tablet and a smartphone.

15. A data generation method of an image sensor in an image sensor system having the image sensor that performs an examination of a product and an operation terminal for externally operating the image sensor, the data generation method comprising:

specifying, by a recognition part of the image sensor system, user information of a user who uses the operation terminal and device information of the operation terminal, wherein the device information comprises device type indicating a type of the operation terminal;

specifying a user category related to the user of the image sensor on the basis of the specified user information;

determining, by a determination part of the image sensor system, items and a screen layout of display information on the examination displayed on a display part used by the operation terminal on the basis of a combination of the specified user category and the specified device information, and a disposition of the display information on the display part on the basis of both of the specified user information and the specified device information; and

generating, by a generation part of the image sensor system, data for displaying the display information in the determined disposition on the display part of the operation terminal.

16. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a data generation program of an image sensor in an image sensor system having the image sensor that performs an examination of a product and an operation terminal for externally operating the image sensor, the data generation program causing a computer in the image sensor system to execute following processes:

specifying user information of a user who uses the operation terminal and device information of the operation terminal, wherein the device information comprises device type indicating a type of the operation terminal;

specifying a user category related to the user of the image sensor on the basis of the specified user information;

determining items and a screen layout of display information on the examination displayed on a display part used by the operation terminal on the basis of a combination of the specified user category and the specified device information, and a disposition of the display information on the display part on the basis of both of the specified user information and the specified device information; and

generating data for displaying the display information in the determined disposition on the display part of the operation terminal.
