    摘要: A TV broadcast viewing and recording system, which can enhance viewing efficiency for each user to view TV programs even though several users use the system. The TV broadcast viewing and recording system (1) comprises a TV receiver (2), a recorder (3), and a camera (4) which takes an image in a predetermined imaging area in front of the TV receiver (2) or the recorder (3). When the user surfs the channels (S51), the TV receiver (2) transmits a request signal to the recorder (3) (S52). The recorder (3) performs facial recognition of an image data taken by the camera (4), identifies the user by calculating a feature quantity of the user who changes the channels (S53), and extracts data files of TV programs which has not been reproduced yet (S54). Subsequently, the recorder (3) transmits a message signal including information of un-reproduced data files of TV programs to the TV receiver (2) (S55). The TV receiver (2) displays a list of the un-reproduced data files of TV programs on the basis of the received information so that the user can confirm existence of TV programs which has not been reproduced yet(S56).

    摘要: A system allowing a viewer of a program to know a rating is provided. A viewing information distribution system includes an IP telephone management server and each television connected to the Internet. The television is controlled by a signal emitted from a remote control terminal having an IP telephone function. The IP telephone management server includes a processor carrying out operational processing and communication control and a database. The IP telephone management server and the television communicate with each other in accordance with a session initiation protocol. The television transmits a selected channel to the IP telephone management server. The IP telephone management server summarizes viewing information received from each television and distributes the information to each television. Receiving statistic data, the television displays that figure in a video image display area.

    摘要: In a hard disc recorder (1) which transits to sleep mode so as to reduce electric power consumption when it is not used by a user in a predetermined term, an imaging unit (9) takes images in an imaging area in front of the hard disc recorder (1) at a predetermined time interval. A person detection unit (32) detects and identifies a person who stays in the imaging area by performing facial recognition process. A transition setting unit (34) sets an individual transition time for the identified user on the basis of a time when the user is detected and a database of execution history of recording or reproducing operation instructed by the user, and set a basic transition time on the basis of a database of execution history of recording or reproducing operation instructed by all users. When the individual transition time comes or when the basic transition time comes in the sleep mode, a hard disc drive controller (31) transits the operation mode of the hard disc recorder (1) from the sleep mode to standby mode where a hard disc recorder (2) is recordable or reproducible.

    摘要: A shot symbol string storage is configured to store a shot symbol string provided by applying a shot symbol corresponding to the type to each shot of video data. A model pattern storage is configured to store a model pattern symbol string which is obtained by arraying the plurality of shot symbols so as to correspond to a scene to be detected. A detector is configured to detect a symbol string, which corresponds to the model pattern symbol string of the model pattern storage, from the shot symbol string of the shot symbol string storage. Continuous shots of the video data corresponding to the symbol string detected by the detector are recognized as a specific scene.
