Abstract

This invention is about controlling methods for so called mud games out of all the internet network games, and replaces already established keyboard based inputs with voice-recognizing ones. The invention, therefore, does not need inputs by keyboards and makes MUD/MUG games enjoyable for even people who are not good at keyboard controlling and the disabled and prevents a variety of disorders such as wrist strain caused by working too long on keyboard.

Description

The speech recognition(setting) of ON-LINE-GAME(MUD AND MUG-GAME)
Technical Field
This invention is about a new type of MUD/MUG games with a new device to enjoy games. The development of MUD/MUG games and its enjoyment by gamers will be done not by a keyboard, which has been a dominant device so far, but by a voice-recognizing device, which can maximize its convenience.
Background Art
In doing MUD/MUG games, a keyboard is not a only a device of great account but an indispensable command input device. However, mud games are being recognized to the degree that they gives a newly developed society in the cyber world where a lot of people can access on the same game, enjoy it, and further talk about it. But to enjoy mud games, the access to the IP address of that game through other programs such as TelNet is necessary. This way of accessing for mud games makes users to spend a long time on the game once accessed. While enjoying games, gamers put their commands through a keyboard, resulting in the high strain on their wrists working on the keyboard.
Consequently, teenagers, the majority of MUD/MUG gamers, can have trouble in their physical developments. In addition, the characteristic of MUD/MUG games assumes people being good at keyboard typing and therefore gives the problem of excluding people without that ability and the disabled on hands from another society of cyber world. Brief Description of Drawings
Figure(Fig) 1 shows the operating procedures of the voice-recognizing
MUD/MUG games based on this invention
Fig 2 shows how this invention works in the systems.
Fig 3 shows operating hardwares and interconnecting equipments.
Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention
This invention is equipped with a voice-recognizing MUD/MUG game program(St 1, St 3' , 100), a hardware installed with a voice-recognizing module(200), a sound card already in use and a microphone(300), etc.
This invention is equipped with a voice-recognizing MUD/MUG game program(St 1, St 3' , 100), a hardware installed with a voice-recognizing module(200), a sound card already in use and a microphone(300), etc.
The programs and hardwares described above control every single detail when the MUD/MUG games start by the inputs of voice through the programs described above, hardwares, microphones, etc. So this invention makes it possible to enjoy MUD/MUG games without a keyboard.
The following figures give more detailed explanations. programs connected with hardwares. First of all, (St 1) starts operation of the voice-recognizing MUD/MUG games. Next, (St 2) put command words of MUD/MUG game programs by the hardwares installed with voice-recognizing modules(200) as described above or a sound card already in use and a microphone(300). For example, if a gamer wants to move eastward, he or she can put it by saying "eastward" through the microphone(200). (St 3) step MUD/MUG game program(St 1, St 3' , 100) determines(discrimination) whether the voice input is right or not. The right input goes to (St 4) and the wrong one goes back to (St 2) and gets a voice input again. Fig 2 is the chart that shows how the voice-recognizing MUD/MUG game programs described above and systems work together and details are as follow.
First of all, (St 1' ) starts operation of the system, or the computer. Next, (St 2' ) starts operation of 0/S programs such as WINDOWS or DOS. When these operations are done as described above, (St 3' ) starts operation of the voice-recognizing MUD/MUG game programs, which means the start of the voice-recognizing MUD/MUG game. At the next stage, (St 4'), a user's commanding voice is put by the previous described hardware installed with a voice-recognizing module(200) or a sound card already in use and a microphone(300). For example, if a gamer wants to move eastward, he or she can put it by saying "eastward" through the microphone. Then the next (St 5' ) step of the voice-recognizing MUD/MUG game programs(St 1, St 3' , 100) determines(discrimination) whether the voice input is right or not. The right input goes to (St 6' ) and the wrong one goes back to (St 4' ) and gets a voice input again. Fig 4 shows how the voice-recognizing MUD/MUG game described above and the hardwares work together. At first, the voice-recognizing MUD/MUG game will be operated with the connection of the voice-recognizing MUD/MUG game program(100), the hardware installed with a voice-recognizing module(200), a sound card already in use, and a voice-recognizing microphone(300) as the fig 4 shows.
Industrial Applicability
This invention replaces already established keyboard based inputs with voice-recognizing based ones to enjoy MUD/MUG games. So it maximizes it s convenience by including even people who are not good at keyboard typing and the disabled on hands in another society of the cyber world and preventing a lot of physical disorders such as wrist strain, which is caused by working too long time on keyboards.
