Abstract: An information processing system includes an acquisition unit that acquires excretion information, based on imaging data captured by an image capture apparatus installed in such a way as to include, in an image capture range, an excretion range of excrement in a toilet bowl of a toilet, a generation unit that generates presentation information to be output, based on the excretion information, and a control unit. The acquisition unit acquires information that indicates whether a foreign body being an object other than feces and urine is included in the imaging data as a subject excluding the toilet bowl and washing liquid for the toilet bowl. When information including the foreign body is acquired, the control unit outputs a stop command for stopping a washing function of the toilet bowl to the toilet bowl side, and the generation unit generates alert information as at least a part of the presentation information.

Abstract: A system includes a sensor detecting entry/exit of a person to/from a toilet and a sensor detecting leaving/sitting on a toilet seat installed on a toilet bowl; acquires excretion information indicating at least a start and an end of excretion, based on imaging data captured by an image capture apparatus installed in such a way as to include, in an image capture range, an excretion range of excrement in the bowl; authenticates a person performed entry/exit, and determines whether the person is a person to be assisted as a user of the toilet or a helper; outputs notification information to a notification destination, based on a detection event indicated by the excretion information, entry/exit information, leaving/sitting information, and an authentication result, and a notification condition; and stores, as the notification condition, necessity of notification, and the notification information and the notification destination when notification is necessary, for each events.

Abstract: An excrement analysis apparatus includes an inputter, a memory, a first analyzer, and a second analyzer. The inputter inputs imaging data captured by an image capture apparatus installed in such a way as to include, in a capturing range, an excretion range of excrement in a toilet bowl of a toilet. The memory temporarily holds the imaging data input by the inputter. The first analyzer analyzes first analysis target data being the imaging data input by the inputter, and outputs notification information to an observer who observes a user of the toilet. The second analyzer analyzes second analysis target data being the imaging data that is input by the inputter and temporarily held by the memory, and outputs detailed information indicating a content of excretion.

Abstract: To collect excretion information indicating a content of excrement in a toilet bowl without having to ask a user of a toilet and prevent flushing of a foreign body other than the excrement, even when the foreign body is present in the toilet bowl. The information processing system (1) includes an acquisition unit (1a) that acquires excretion information on the basis of imaging data captured by an image capture apparatus installed in such a way as to include, in an image capture range, an excretion range of excrement in a toilet bowl of a toilet, a generation unit (1b) that generates presentation information on the basis of the excretion information, an output unit (1c) that outputs the presentation information, and a washing control unit (1d) that controls a washing function of the toilet bowl.

Abstract: A data transfer device 210 is equipped with a plurality of communication ports 211a and 211b, a communication establishment processor 212, and a communication maintenance processor 213. The communication establishment processor 212 transmits and receives communication establishing information for establishing communication with an external device connected via the communication port to and from the external device. The communication maintenance processor 213 is configured to operate independently of the communication establishment processor 212 and, every time a predetermined transmission period elapses, transmits communication maintaining information for maintaining the establishment of communication with the external device, to the external device.
