Title: SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR NETWORK-BASED
REMOTE TEXT SERVICE
Technical Field The present invention relates to a remote text service system, and in particular to an improved system and method for a network-based remote text service in which an audio medium such as a CD, record, etc. inserted in a user computer and provided as a supplement to various publications such as foreign language materials, poems, essays, etc. is reproduced in accordance with a remote driving control of a server computer connected through the internet, and a text data(caption data) provided in synchronization with a reproducing audio signal is remotely received from a server and is displayed on a monitor.
Background Art Generally, the internet is an open type network in which anyone can get connected with a certain computer based on the TCP/IP(Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol). With the internet, it is possible to use various services such as an e-mail service, a file transfer service, and a www(world wide web) service, which are used for transmission of basic text data as well as multimedia data. As the use of the internet sharply increases throughout the world, the internet has been considered as a very useful tool which can be used so as to enhance an efficiency and productivity in the industrial field. A new service has been continuously developed based on the internet. The businessmen who use the internet gradually increase. Namely, as new business types through the internet, many internet sites i
increasingly provide various contents such as internet advertisements, internet broadcasts, online games, internet newspapers/magazines, search services, portal services, electronic commerce, etc.
As the internet and multimedia materials sharply increase, various publications such as foreign language study materials, poems/essays, etc. provide audio supplements besides basic books. As the use of digital data such as a MP3 in the field of music business sector increase, it is expected that the music related business would go well for many years.
However, since the audio medium such as CD, record, etc., which are provided as supplements of various publications such as foreign language study materials, poems/essays, etc., are designed to store only audio signals therein, the users can reproduce and listen to only the audio signals. Namely, the users cannot be provided with text services such as reproducing music lyrics, reproducing original texts or translations of foreign language study materials, etc. Therefore, the audio mediums cannot have been widely applied in the conventional art.
A manufacturer should store both the audio signals and text data when fabricating the audio mediums so that the users can use both the audio signals and text data when reproducing various audio mediums. In addition, the user should use an additional reproducing program which operates in synchronization with the audio signals and text data, so that it is impossible to universally use the conventional mediums.

200 in a step S105. The user gets connected with the server computer 300 through the network communication network 100, with the server computer 300 providing a remote text service function. The user registers a new member or performs a login in a step S110. The server computer 300 provides the user computer 200 remaining connected through the network communication network 100 with various audio lists having remote text service functions constituted in the form of database in a step S115.
The server computer 300 judges whether a reproducing selection data of a certain audio medium inserted into the user computer is inputted from the user computer 200 in accordance with the operation of the user who confirms the lists of various audio mediums having remote text service functions in a step S120.
As a result of the judgment, if the reproducing selection data of a certain audio medium is inputted from the user computer 200, the server computer 300 judges whether a reproducing program is installed at the user computer 200 for reproducing a corresponding audio medium in a step S125.
As a result of the judgment, if the reproducing program for reproducing a corresponding audio medium is installed at the user computer 200, the server computer 300 controls the execution of the reproducing program installed at the user computer 200, and a corresponding audio medium inserted into the user computer 200 is reproduced in a step S130.
However, as a result of the judgment of the step S125, if the reproducing program for reproducing a corresponding audio medium is not installed at the user computer 200, the server computer 300 allows the user computer 200 to download the reproducing program and install the same in a step S135 and controls the
execution of the reproducing program, so that a corresponding audio medium inserted into the user computer 200 is reproduced in a step S140.
In addition, the execution of the reproducing program is controlled in the steps S130 and S140, and a corresponding audio medium inserted into the user computer 200 is reproduced. The server computer 300 outputs the text data synchronized with the currently reproducing audio signal of the audio medium inserted into the user computer 200 is outputted to the user computer 200 through the network communication network 100 in accordance with the selection of the user who operates the reproducing program in a step S145. The user computer 200 displays the text data synchronized with the currently reproducing audio signal provided from the server computer 300 on the reproducing program in a step S150.
The server computer 300 repeatedly performs the routines after the step S 145 until a data provided so as to stop reproducing the audio medium is inputted from the user computer 200. As the user, who inserted an audio medium into the user computer 200, gets connected with the server computer 300 and selects a certain audio medium which will be reproduced, the server computer 300 remotely executes the reproducing program. When the user inserts the audio medium into the user computer 200, the user computer 200 automatically recognizes the inserted audio medium, differently from the method in which the text data synchronized with the audio signal reproducing on the user computer 200 is provided, and the audio medium is reproduced at the user computer 200. The text data synchronized with the audio signal are received from the server computer 300 and are displayed on the monitor.
Figure 5 is a flow chart of an operation of a network-based remote text service method according to another embodiment of the present invention.
The user computer 200 gets connected with the server computer 300 through the network communication network 100, with the server computer 300 providing remote text service functions, based on the operation of the user who has various audio mediums such as CD, records, etc. provided as a supplement to various publications such as foreign language study materials, poems/essays, etc. in a step S205.
The user computer 200 downloads the recognition program and the reproducing program for reproducing the audio mediums from the server computer 300, with the recognition program being capable of automatically recognizing whether various audio mediums such as CD, records, etc. provided as a supplement to various publications such as foreign language study materials, poems/essays, etc. inserted into the user computer 200 in a step S210.
After the recognition program and reproducing program are downloaded from the server computer 300 and are installed, the user computer 200 judges whether the audio medium such as CD, record, etc. provided as a supplement to publications is inserted or not based on the user's operation.
As a result of the judgment, when the audio medium is inserted, the user computer 200 automatically drives the previously installed recognition program in a step S220 and checks whether the audio medium has the remote text service function of the server computer 300 in a step S225. The recognition program of the user computer 200 reads the recognition data(for example, HEXA code data) recorded at the audio medium and compares with the recognition data of the audio medium having the remote text service function provided from the server computer 300 for thereby checking the audio medium has a remote text service function or not. As a result of the check of the step S225, if the audio medium inserted by the
user does not have the remote text service function, the user computer 200 reproduces only the audio signals recorded at a corresponding audio medium based on the user's operation in a step S230.
However, as a result of the check of the step S225, if the audio medium inserted by the user has the remote text service function, the user computer 200 drives the previously installed reproducing program and starts reproducing a corresponding audio medium inserted into the user computer 200 in a step S235.
After a corresponding audio medium inserted into the user computer 200 is reproduced by executing the reproducing program in the step S235, the user computer 200 receives the text data synchronized with the currently reproducing audio signal of the audio medium inserted into the user computer through the network communication network 100 based on the selection of the user who operates the reproducing program in a step S240 and displays the text data synchronized with the currently reproducing audio signal provided from the server computer 300 on the reproducing program in a step S245.
The user computer 200 repeatedly performs the routines after the step S240 until a data provided so as to stop reproducing the audio medium is inputted based on the operation of the user in a step S250.
