Abstract
A wireless endpoint provided in an automatic inspection system includes a sound collection unit that collects sounds produced by an inspection target, an analysis unit that analyzes the collected sound and obtains a degree of difference between the collected sound and a normal sound learned in advance as an analysis result, a wireless communication unit that wirelessly transmits data including the analysis result to a wireless base station, and a power supply unit that supplies power to the above units. The wireless base station manages the data received from the wireless endpoint. In response to a request from a monitoring terminal that monitors the status of the inspection target, the wireless base station transmits the analysis result retrieved from the data to the monitoring terminal. The monitoring terminal performs a process of disclosing a status of the inspection target determined from the analysis result.
