For example, when the permanent terminal 4 captures the projection screen 1040, the content management server 6 that receives the capture capture request from the personal terminal 2b makes a capture capture request to the permanent terminal 4.

The permanent terminal 4 captures a capture of the projection screen 1040 and returns the image file of the captured captured image 1022 to the content management server 6. The content management server 6 transmits the returned image file of the captured image 1022 to the personal terminal 2b. When the permanent terminal 4 captures the projection screen 1040 in this way, for example, the presenter A or the participant B can capture the capture of the projection screen 1040 that can be viewed simultaneously on the permanent terminal 4.

The personal terminal 2b that has received the image file of the captured image 1022 from the content management server 6 proceeds to step S166, and additionally displays the captured image 1022 of the projection screen 1040 in the memo area using the received image file, for example, as shown in FIG. To do. Further, the personal terminal 2b displays the text memo area 1024 attached to the captured image 1022 on the same sheet 1020 as the additionally displayed captured image 1022, for example, as shown in FIG.

In step S168, the participant B who operates the personal terminal 2b draws an object on the captured image 1022 on the additionally displayed sheet 1020 and inputs a text memo to the text memo area 1024.

In the sequence of FIG. 34, only the image file of the captured image 1022 is transmitted from the content management server 6 to the personal terminal 2b. In this case, Javascript, which is included in the data of the web page and operates on the browser of the personal terminal 2b, may create a text memo area.

Further, the content management server 6 may transmit the data of the sheet 1020 including the image of the captured image 1022 and the text memo area 1024. Further, the display position of the captured image 1022 and the sheet 1020 at this time may be determined by a program such as a script executed by the browser of the personal terminal 2b, or the content management server 6 specifies the display position and is an individual. It may be transmitted to the terminal 2b.

Further, the content management server 6 may generate a sheet 1020 in which the acquired image of the captured image 1022 and the text memo area 1024 are combined. The area other than the captured image 1022 and the text memo area 1024 on the sheet 1020 can be an area where handwriting can be performed or an area where handwriting cannot be performed.

When a sheet other than the additionally displayed sheet 1020 (selected sheet 1020) is clicked, the personal terminal 2b determines that the editing is temporarily completed, and proceeds to step S168. In step S168, the personal terminal 2b transmits the information regarding the additionally displayed sheet 1020 and the edited contents for the sheet 1020 to the content management server 6. In step S168, the personal terminal 2b may transmit the information about all the sheets 1020 and the edited contents for all the sheets 1020 to the content management server 6.

The content management server 6 updates the contents of the various DBs described above with the received information about the sheet 1020 and the edited contents for the sheet 1020. In this way, the handwritten memos on the captured image 1022 and the captured image 1022 captured by the participant B on the personal board screen 1000 and the text memos input in the text memo area 1024 are associated with each other by the sheet 1020 and sent to the content management server 6. Saved.

<< Review of memos, display and utilization of interest level >>
Participant B and presenter A look back on the memos of the seminar and display and utilize the degree of interest of the participants in the content of the seminar, for example, as follows. In addition, here, an example in which a participant looks back on the memo of the seminar from the personal terminal 2b will be described.

FIG. 35 is a sequence diagram of an example of a process in which a participant looks back on a memo of a seminar from a personal terminal 2b. In step S180, the participant who operates the personal terminal 2b performs an access operation to the personal portal screen 5000 as shown in FIG. 36. FIG. 36 is a diagram showing a display example of the personal portal screen 5000.

The personal portal screen 5000 of FIG. 36 displays a list 5010 of seminars in which participant B who operates the personal terminal 2b participated. The list of seminars 5010 can be created by using the personal memo management DB 6004, the shared memo management DB 6005, and the interest level management DB 6003 described above.

In the example of the seminar list 5010 of FIG. 36, the date and time, the seminar name, the place, the personal memo button 5030, the shared memo button 5040, the self-evaluation, and the bibliographic information button 5050 are displayed as items for each seminar. According to the personal portal screen 5000 of FIG. 36, the participant B can confirm the list 5010 of the seminars in which he / she participated. Self-evaluation is an example of evaluation information.

The personal memo button 5030 is linked to the personal board screen 1100 that displays the personal memo dm of the seminar. The shared memo button 5040 is linked to a shared memo screen that displays the shared memo cm of the seminar. The bibliographic information button 5050 is linked to the bibliographic information screen 5100 that displays the bibliographic information of the seminar.

When the bibliographic information button 5050 on the personal portal screen 5000 is pressed, the personal terminal 2b displays the bibliographic information screen 5100 corresponding to the pressed bibliographic information button 5050. FIG. 37 is a diagram showing a display example of the bibliographic information screen 5100. The “holding information” displayed at the upper part of the bibliographic information screen 5100 is, for example, the “seminar bibliographic information” of the shared memo management DB 6005 of FIG. Further, the "capture information" displayed at the bottom of the bibliographic information screen 5100 is created by using, for example, the interest level management DB 6003 of FIG. The details of the "capture information" displayed at the bottom of the bibliographic information screen 5100 will be described later.

The access operation to the personal portal screen 5000 in step S180 may be to input the connection address to the personal portal screen 5000 into the web browser or to select the personal portal screen 5000 using the bookmark.

Proceeding to step S182, the web browser of the personal terminal 2b accesses the personal portal screen 5000. In step S184, the content management server 6 authenticates the participant B who operates the personal terminal 2b. Here, the explanation will be continued assuming that the authentication is successful. The content management server 6 proceeds to step S186 and reads the data for the personal portal screen 5000 from the storage unit 6000.

For example, the content management server 6 identifies the seminar ID corresponding to the seminar in which the participant B participated from the personal memo management DB 6004 of the storage unit 6000 using the contact information such as the authenticated participant B's user name and e-mail address as a key. Further, the content management server 6 specifies the bibliographic information of the seminar from the shared memo management DB 6005 of the storage unit 6000 using the specified seminar ID as a key.

In this way, if the contact information of the participant B can be specified, the content management server 6 can acquire the data necessary for creating the personal portal screen 5000 of FIG. 36 from various DBs of the storage unit 6000. Proceeding to step S188, the content management server 6 creates the data of the web page of the personal portal screen 5000 from the acquired data for the personal portal screen 5000. Proceeding to step S190, the content management server 6 transmits the data of the web page for the personal portal screen 5000 to the personal terminal 2b.

Proceeding to step S192, the personal terminal 2b can display the personal portal screen 5000 as shown in FIG. On the personal portal screen 5000 of FIG. 36, a list 5010 of seminars in which the participant B who operates the personal terminal 2b participates is displayed. In step S194, the participant B who operates the personal terminal 2b performs an operation of pressing the personal memo button 5030 of the seminar for which he / she wants to display the personal board screen 1100.

Proceeding to step S196, the web browser of the personal terminal 2b makes a request to the content management server 6 for the personal board screen 1100 linked to the personal memo button 5030 that has received the operation to be pressed. Proceeding to step S198, the content management server 6 creates the data of the web page of the personal board screen 1100 requested from the personal terminal 2b. Proceeding to step S200, the content management server 6 transmits the data of the web page for the personal board screen 1100 to the personal terminal 2b.

Proceeding to step S202, the personal terminal 2b can display the personal board screen 1100 as shown in FIG. Here, the participant B of the personal terminal 2b selects the sheet 1120 of the personal board screen 1100, and a handwritten memo on the captured image 1022 of the selected sheet 1120 or a text memo on the text memo area 1024 (writing on the sheet 1120). I will explain it as if I did.

In step S204, the participant B of the personal terminal 2b selects the sheet 1120 of the personal board screen 1100 and writes to the selected sheet 1120. The capture reference information regarding the sheet 1120 referred to by the participant B of the personal terminal 2b in step S204 and the information written to the selected sheet 1120 are transmitted from the personal terminal 2b to the content management server 6 in step S206.

The capture reference information is, for example, when the personal terminal 2b determines that a specific captured image is displayed on the screen of the personal terminal 2b, the content management server provides the capture reference information indicating that the captured image is displayed once. 6 may be transmitted, or when it is determined by the personal terminal 2b that the specific captured image is displayed in a specific area of the personal terminal 2b, for example, an area within a certain range from the center of the screen of the personal terminal 2b for a certain period of time or longer. The capture reference information indicating that the captured image has been displayed once may be transmitted to the content management server 6.

In addition, the capture reference information can also include the display time of the captured image. The personal terminal 2b may count the display time of the captured image if it is displayed on any of the screens of the personal terminal 2b, or a specific area of the screen of the personal terminal 2b, for example, a certain range from the center. You may want to count only the time displayed in the area of.

Proceeding to step S208, the content management server 6 updates the interest level management DB 6003 and the like in FIG. 17 based on the capture reference information and the written information (review information of the seminar memo by the participant B) received from the personal terminal 2b.

Further, here, the participant B of the personal terminal 2b performs an operation in step S210 to press the bibliographic information button 5050 of the seminar for which the bibliographic information screen 5100 is to be displayed. Proceeding to step S212, the web browser of the personal terminal 2b makes a request to the content management server 6 for the bibliographic information screen 5100 corresponding to the bibliographic information button 5050 that has received the operation to be pressed.

Proceeding to step S214, the content management server 6 creates the data of the web page of the bibliographic information screen 5100 requested from the personal terminal 2b. Proceeding to step S216, the content management server 6 transmits the data of the web page for the bibliographic information screen 5100 to the personal terminal 2b. Proceeding to step S218, the personal terminal 2b can display the bibliographic information screen 5100 as shown in FIG. 37.

Although the sequence diagram of FIG. 35 shows an example in which the participant B of the personal terminal 2b displays the bibliographic information screen 5100 of FIG. 37, the presenter A of the personal terminal 2a displays the bibliographic information screen 5100 of FIG. 37. You may. Further, the content displayed on the bibliographic information screen 5100 of FIG. 37 may be changed depending on the roles of the presenter A, the participant B, the organizer, etc. who operate the personal terminal 2.

Further, the bibliographic information screen 5100 of FIG. 37 uses “capture information” as shown in FIG. 38 or 39, for example, and the interest level management DB 6003 of FIG. By displaying "degree information", it is possible to display and utilize the degree of interest of participant B or the like in the content of the seminar.

FIG. 38 is an explanatory diagram of an example of the captured information of the bibliographic information screen 5100. FIG. 38 shows the captured image 1022 of the projection screen 1040 captured by any of the participants in the seminar and the number of times the captured image 1022 is captured. According to the capture information shown in FIG. 38, the projected screen 1040 of high interest can be measured based on the captured image 1022 of the captured projection screen 1040 and the number of times the captured image 1022 is captured.

FIG. 39 is an explanatory diagram of an example of the captured information of the bibliographic information screen 5100. In FIG. 39, the captured image 1022 of the projection screen 1040 captured at the seminar and the content of the text memo input to the text memo area 1024 accompanying the captured image 1022 are displayed for each participant. Further, in FIG. 39, the seminar participation time, the seminar exit time, the degree of interest, and the contact information of the participants are displayed for each participant.

The degree of interest is displayed by calculating a relative evaluation based on, for example, the number of captured images 1022, the number of memos, the length of the seminar participation time, and the like. The content of the captured information on the bibliographic information screen 5100 may be changed based on the roles of the organizer, presenter, participant, etc. who operate the personal terminal 2. For example, if it is an organizer or a presenter, the capture information of all the participants may be displayed, or if it is a participant, only the capture information of each participant may be displayed.

In the example of FIG. 39, the number of captured images 1022 of the participants of the contact information of the user name “B” and the email “BBB@yyy.com” is larger than that of the other participants, and the number of memos is also larger than that of the other participants. Since there are many seminars and the seminar participation time is longer than other participants, it can be judged that the degree of interest in the content of the seminar is higher than that of other participants. The captured information displayed at the bottom of the bibliographic information screen 5100 may be, for example, a part or all of the information of the interest level management DB 6003 of FIG.

Bibliographic information including captured images, memos, seminar participation time, seminar exit time, and seminar interest level is generated for each seminar and each participant. For example, when a participant participates in Seminar X and exits, and participates in a new Seminar Y, the content management server 6 is based on information such as a captured image acquired from the participant's personal terminal 2 before leaving Seminar X. Bibliographic information (capture information / interest level information) created in the above, and bibliographic information created by the content management server 6 based on information such as captured images acquired from the participant's personal terminal 2 after participating in the seminar Y. Bibliographic information is generated and displayed as different bibliographic information.
