Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a real-time interactive two-way information gathering system for summarizing and gathering questions and answers to a questionnaire displayed on a large display on the street using a portable terminal. In addition, a system that exchanges information bidirectionally while displaying the respondent name data on the large display, checking the reception time zone and answer count so that it looks like you are interacting with the large display and gives a sense of affinity is there.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional general questionnaire aggregation system is one-way from the user side to the system side, for example, watching a television broadcast and answering the questionnaire, and the aggregated result cannot be seen in real time. Moreover, the names of the individuals were not reflected, and the sense of presence and dialogue was poor.

[0003]

Since the conventional one-way portable information aggregation system of the prior art has the above configuration, the aggregated result cannot be seen in real time, and the name of each individual is reflected. He had a poor sense of presence and dialogue.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and is a real-time interactive two-way information gathering system which is full of a sense of realism and dialogue in which real names are reflected in real time together with a result of aggregating individual names. The purpose is to obtain.

[0005]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a real-time interactive portable information aggregating system for asking an unspecified user a time zone and an access key for distinguishing the program from other programs. At the same time, the interested user sends the question and answer together with the access key using the mobile terminal, and the total of the received answer results is collected by the access key registered in advance in the master and the acceptance time zone and answer The answer screen, the tallying result screen, and the user name data are passed as data to the image synthesizing device according to the registration information, and the image is synthesized by the image synthesizing device and is displayed on the display.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a real-time interactive portable information aggregating system for displaying a time zone and an access key for distinguishing the program from other programs simultaneously with a questionnaire on a display installed for an unspecified user. An interested user sends a question and answer together with an access key using a mobile terminal, counts the received answer results, counts the reception time zone and answers using the access key registered in advance in the master, and registers the registration information. Then, the answer screen and the tallying result screen and the user name data are transferred as data to the image synthesizing apparatus, and the image is synthesized by the image synthesizing apparatus and is transmitted to the mobile terminal.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided a real-time interactive portable information aggregating system in which a display provided for an unspecified user sets a time zone and an access key for distinguishing the program from other programs simultaneously with a coupon ticket issuance question. The user who is interested in it displays the question and answer together with the access key using the mobile terminal, and counts the received answer results using the access key registered in advance in the master and counts the reception time zone and the answer. Then, the coupon ticket screen and the user name data are passed as data to the image synthesizing device according to the registration information, and the image synthesizing device synthesizes the image and performs the image synthesizing on the portable terminal.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, a real-time interactive portable information aggregating system connects a program monitor to an image synthesizing apparatus and advances a program by a button for updating display contents for monitoring / simulation by designating a program code.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, a real-time interactive portable information aggregation system according to the present invention will be described.

FIG. 1 is an overall configuration diagram of a real-time interactive portable information aggregation system according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a system device configuration diagram of the real-time interactive portable information aggregation system according to one embodiment of the present invention. 1 and 2, reference numeral 1 denotes a program which is installed in a place visible to as many users as possible, for example, on a street, etc., and is provided with a program and an i-mode (trademark of NTT DoCoMo, Inc.) or an Internet URL or access. A large display on which keys are displayed, 2 is a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone, PHS or the like for the user to make a response to the program, questionnaire, message application, etc., 3 is an internet network, 4 is an internet network for answer, questionnaire, message application, etc. WW sent and received through 3
W server, 5 is a database server that manages program information / mail list, 6 is a program monitor device that can monitor the state of the display 1, 7 is a video player, 8 is an image synthesizing device that synthesizes program information / mail list, 9 Is a timer, 10 is an image switching device for switching the contents of displaying a program on the large display 1 by the timer 9, 11 is a mail server, and 12 is a router.

In FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the user looks at questionnaires, quizzes, messages, etc. on the display 1 on the street and, if he / she is interested, answers (or answers), applications, names, etc. on the portable terminal 2 on his / her hand. The URL and the access key in the program displayed on the display 1 are simultaneously transmitted. This is received by the WWW server 4 and transferred to the database server 5 for managing the program information / mail list. Here, questionnaire totaling, score totaling, and message receiving processing are performed.
The result is displayed together with the user name on the large display 1 via the image synthesizing device 8 and the image switching device 10.
In particular, this real-time responsiveness, such as giving a message of love to a partner on a wedding anniversary and enlivening a program together with a user and a program provider, elevates the user's willingness to participate and makes the program provider an effective Advertising means is achieved. The access key can be read in a practically readable range (generally within a radius of several tens of meters depending on the size of the display 1 and the number of installations). It is effective as a means to measure the effect in real time as a response after advertisement, such as wanting to investigate the effect before nationwide deployment.

The image synthesizing device 8 has a program monitor 6
If the program is progressed using a button for updating the display contents for monitoring / simulation by specifying the program code, the program can be monitored with a simple configuration. If it is too late, the operation such as delaying the program progress by the timer 9 in real time can be usually performed. In addition, since it is possible to simulate an important program in advance without affecting the data at all, the operation manager can perform a dry run.

Also, depending on the contents of the coupon, etc. issued to the correct answerer of the quiz, the portable terminal 2 of the user who is the originator
Display to For example, the user can go to the program provider displayed on the screen of the display 1 to show the screen and buy merchandise at a discount, so that the program provider uses it as a tool for sales promotion.
