摘要:
In order to watch existing contents by using different information apparatus, the contents are converted into formats suitable for respective information apparatus to be implemented, but implementation of interaction for bidirectionality is not solved. In order to implement watching the contents in all information receiving apparatus, a playback/capture content processing device, a content conversion unit, a content analysis processing unit extracting an operation object of a remote controller from converted video information, a distribution processing unit, and an interaction analysis/control unit are provided. The interaction analysis/control unit acquires operation information of a remote controller device in an information receiving apparatus side, preserves matching information with the operation object extracted by the content analysis processing unit in real time on a database, and controls content information of the playback/capture content processing device in real time.

An information management server and information distribution system utilizes a video of the class for creating educational contents matching the learning conditions of the student, and also provides instruction using these same contents. This information server and information distribution system are composed of an accumulator section to store electronic data on the lecture contents, a holding section to hold lecture-related information, a send section to send lecture contents and lecture-related information to the terminal of the student, an analyzer section to analyze electronic data on the lecture contents, and a matcher section to link lecture-related information with lecture contents based on those analysis results, and a control section for selecting lecture contents linked to the lecture-related information based on a reply to the lecture-related information sent from the student terminal, wherein the send section and sends those selected lecture contents to the terminal of the student that sent the reply to the lecture-related information.

A method of extracting a keyword in synchronism with a “scene” or “corner” in a TV program that changes in units of second in synchronism with the elapse of time of first content, and an information presentation apparatus to search and display a predetermined form of content, such as a web page, are provided. The information presentation apparatus comprises: an AV content output unit to output AV content (e.g., TV programs and movies); and a web page output unit to output, together with the AV content from the AV content output unit, a web page that corresponds to a keyword related to a scene included in the content being output from the AV content output unit without the user having to take trouble to choose a keyword, the web page output unit being adapted to, when the scene in the content changes, automatically update the web page to one corresponding to the changed scene.

A content is delivered in consideration of a terminal used by a user, an ambient environment of the user and the terminal, and the characteristics and preferences of the user. A content delivery server has an input/output unit for transmitting and receiving information between itself and a terminal, a content management unit for managing contents composed of modalities, and a control unit for controlling the input/output unit and the content management unit. The control unit obtains attribute information composed of terminal attribute information on an output interface at the terminal, environmental attribute information on the current ambient environment of the terminal, and user attribute information on the characteristics of the user, generates, based on the obtained attribute information, modality construction information for specifying the modalities of a content to be delivered to the terminal, determines, by using the modality construction information, a modality construction for the content to be delivered which is under the management of the content management unit, and delivers the content composed of the determined modalitis to the terminal via the input/output unit.

A method of displaying program-related information while the user views a program video mainly and a broadcasting program displaying device to implement the method without making the user's operation complicated and confusing. A picture plane is constructed by two picture planes having a television picture plane (picture plane 1) for displaying the program video which is outputted from a broadcasting program displaying device and further a property state picture plane as another picture plane (picture plane 2). The program video is displayed to the picture plane 1 and an operation picture plane of the broadcasting program displaying device and the program related-information are displayed to the picture plane 2. A broadcasting program displaying device for two-screen construction has functions for display, recording, replay, reservation recording, and the like in response to an instruction from a device which the user operates.

An image producing/displaying apparatus capable of inputting a command for changing a state of an object regardless of a form of the object includes a virtual world expressing system for constructing a virtual world including at least one object and environment in which the object exists and producing an image for visually displaying at least part of the virtual world, an output system for visualizing the image produced by the virtual world expressing system and outputting the image, and a command input system for inputting a command to the virtual world expressing system. The command input system detects a movement state of a specific pixel pattern contained in an image formed by an imaging device and extracts feature quantity from the movement state to recognize the command so that the command is notified to the virtual world expressing system.

In a terminal-cooperated system for the uninterrupted reception of contents, the information receiving terminal apparatus includes a unit for transmitting to the mobile terminal the information on content reception switching, and the video information system can uninterruptedly switch over the content reception from the mobile terminal to the information receiving terminal apparatus and from the information receiving terminal apparatus to the mobile terminal, by operating the mobile terminal.
摘要:
A home system for supporting a life behavior, in which a user can effectively select a function or content quickly according to attributes and states of display devices arranged in respective locations and the user behavior. A storage unit holds location attribute information on the devices, time band dependent use frequency for each user, and location dependence of each. A user identifier input unit identifies a user using a function or content. When displaying a menu for the user to select a content and a function, a calculation unit references each database of the storage unit in accordance with the menu display state and generates menu content information correlated to the content and the function. A display unit displays such a menu that the user can easily select a content and a function with higher priority rank according to the menu content information.

A telop recognition method is provided which, during a telop recognition operation, can correct an error, if any, in the recognition operation without loading dictionaries of unnecessary character type into memory and which, when the telop recognition is performed again, does not have to initiate the telop recognition operation from the start. The telop area extraction unit and the character extraction unit are operated to generate character image data, which is temporarily stored. The dictionary data selection unit selects dictionary data corresponding to a program category. By using the character image data and the dictionary data, a character recognition operation is executed to produce candidate character strings. The telop information generation unit processes the candidate character strings to generate telop information.
