摘要:
A content playback method that is capable of preventing diversion and outflow of users' personal information, reliably protecting privacy and detecting and playing back content in accordance with users' needs. With this method, data including content is delivered from a data transmission server (10) of a content providing system (S2). This data is received at content playback terminals (41)-(43). The content playback terminals (41)-(43) store history information of detecting content, extract search information according to the users search characteristics from the history information (S7), preferentially select new content corresponding to the search information and plays back the new content (S9).
摘要:
A terminal apparatus capable of easily selecting a most appropriate product as a gift for each gift receiver by displaying product information in consideration of the gift receiver. In this apparatus, product information reception section (103) extracts product information including attribute information from a received signal, so that it is possible to obtain receiver information, genre information and adequacy level information included in the attribute information. Storage section (104) stores personal information which is information indicating features of predetermined gift receivers such as “birthday”, “sex” and “age.” Product information selection section (105) decides whether or not some of the features of the receiver in the receiver information correspond to the features of the gift receiver in the personal information, and when the receiver information includes the corresponding features, product information selection section (105) arranges the product information so that the product information including the corresponding receiver information comes to the top. Data display section (106) displays the product information in order of the arrangement.
摘要:
A distance between positional information added to contents and a current position detected in an information receiving terminal is calculated, and based on the calculated distance, a method for outputting the contents is controlled. Thus, since the method for outputting the contents can be changed by a positional relationship between the contents and the information receiving terminal, distance relationship between the current position and the contents can be clearly displayed so that users can easily select the contents.

摘要:
A portable language learning device which automatically provides language learning data adapted to an event stored in a schedule book of the learner in accordance with the event thereby to improve learning efficiency. The device comprises a schedule storage section (102) where a schedule is stored, a date/time measuring section (103) for measuring the current time and the date, a teaching material storage section (106) where teaching materials associated with a scene or a keyword are stored, a teaching material selecting section (104) for extracting the nearest event corresponding to the measurement by the date/time measuring section (103) from the schedule stored in the schedule storage section (102), comparing the scenes or keywords of the teaching material stored in the teaching material storage section (106), and selecting a teaching material most suitable for the event, and a teaching material reproducing section (105) for reproducing the selected teaching material. The schedule stare section (102) stores a schedule composed of scenes, events, dates, and time information.
摘要:
Distributed data is not edited at a distributing end but is edited in a terminal apparatus, thereby reducing the cost. The terminal apparatus can quickly retrieve necessary information. In the apparatus, a cell ID extracting part (104) extracts all the cell IDs that can be currently received. A data receiving part (105) extracts distributed data. A data sorting part (106) compares the cell ID related to the distributed data with the cell IDs that can be currently received, and adds priorities to the distributed data in such a manner that a “high” priority is given to the distributed data related to the same cell ID as the local cell, while the lower priorities being given to the distributed data related to the cell IDs of other cells that are farther from the local cell. A display part (108) sequentially displays the distributed data in decreasing order of the priority.
摘要:
A media receiving apparatus capable of preventing media from being positioned in an invalid display area or a program from being temporarily stopped, even if the vertical/horizontal ratio of the resolution of the display section is switched while a broadcast or streaming program is being displayed. In this apparatus there are a plurality of display sections D1 and D2 with different resolutions, and a display directive section (303) directs a display section to be set as active in accordance with the mode of use of the user. A layout information selection section (304) selects a layout corresponding to the resolution of the display section indicated by the display directive section (303) from layout information that includes layouts corresponding to display sections D1 and D2 distributed from a media distribution apparatus, and in accordance with the selected layout a media display control section (306) selects media distributed from the media distribution apparatus, performs conversion processing comprising enlargement or reduction, and displays media on the display section designated by the display directive section (303).
摘要:
In the present invention, content is comprised of a plurality of items of data, and a transmission cycle and others of data composing the content are varied corresponding to the importance and/or necessity and purpose of the data. In this way, for example, it is possible to set a shorter transmission cycle on high-necessity data than the transmission cycle of the low-necessity data, and to set a shorter transmission cycle on information such as summary information requiring fast viewing than the transmission cycle of detailed information.
摘要:
The present invention is intended to realize a screen configuration according to a propagation environment and display capability by causing a server to transmit a plurality of pieces of screen configuration information describing a spatial arrangement of contents to a reception terminal and select, when the reception terminal receives a plurality of pieces of screen configuration information, screen configuration information and display the contents according to the propagation environment of the reception terminal and conditions such as display capability.
摘要:
The present invention allows the transmitting side to transmit a plurality of pieces of layout information that determines a display layout of at least one media and media data making up this layout information and allows the receiving side to receive the layout information and media making up this layout information transmitted from the transmitting side, select one out of a plurality of different pieces of layout information based on a reception state of this media and represent the media using the selected layout information.
