(3) form of the composition of action data and shape data
Structure formation to action data and shape data describes below.As mentioned above, action data and shape data are for generating the data that instantaneous image data is used.
Action data is for forming the data of singer's video action usefulness.Action data disposes several action datas as shown in Figure 3 in image data, each action data wherein is all corresponding with a frame singer video.And as mentioned above, action data comes in the image data, and can set respectively each first melody.In other words be exactly, action data is different data with respect to each first melody, be melody intrinsic data.
If be exactly concretely, action data is according to several inscapes, and the object segmentation that expression people, animal or profiling thing or the like are constituted comes, and then sets the position of these inscapes and the data of rotation usefulness.
Such as shown in Figure 5, define the manikin that imitates the personage, and this manikin is divided into each inscape of waist, chest, head, wrist and pin or the like by the hypothesis mode.Each inscape after this cutting apart is called " separation ".Such as can as shown in Figure 5 manikin be divided into separation L1~L17, and wherein the waist on separation L1 and the manikin is suitable, and the head on separation L5 and the manikin is suitable.And separation L1 can be along X-direction, move along Y direction with along Z-direction, simultaneously can also be respectively being that rotate at the center along the axle of X-direction, along the axle of Y direction with along the axle of Z-direction.Each separation L2~L17 is connected by connecting portion R respectively, and can be benchmark with connecting portion R, respectively being that rotate at the center along the axle of X-direction, along the axle of Y direction with along the axle of Z-direction.Action data is exactly the position of these separations of record and the data of rotation.
Fig. 4 shows the particular content of this action data.As shown in Figure 4, can to separation L1 give relevant position coordinates (X, Y, Z) and rotational angle (Xr, Yr, data Zr).Each action data for separation L2~L17 then only can be given relevant rotational angle (Xr, Yr, data Zr).
Action data can method as described below be made.At first according to this melody that the predefined benchmark beat of a certain melody is reset out.Make human body do actual moving by the mode that matches with this melody of resetting out then.Promptly carry out the action identical with the singer.By the predetermined mensuration cycle, for example, by cycle of 1/15 second to the position of each inscape on the human body of performing, rotate or the like and to implement to measure.So just, can obtain the data of position coordinates and the rotational angle of relevant separation L1 according to the predetermined mensuration cycle.And can obtain the data of the rotational angle of relevant separation L2~L17 according to the predetermined mensuration cycle.So just, produced action data.
On the other hand, shape data is according to several inscapes, and the video of the object that expression people, animal or profiling thing or the like are constituted is separated, and sets the data that the shape of these inscapes is used.Shape data is stored in the shape data storage part 35.Shape data is different with action data, and it is not that every first melody is set respectively.Promptly in general, shape data can be general for some first melodies.The kind that shape data can correspond to the singer's video that demonstrates sets out some kinds.If be exactly for instance, can the singer's video that demonstrate be changed to the animal video by personage's video by changing into the mode of some kinds shape data.
Can set its shape data respectively to each separation L1~L17.Here, Fig. 6 shows a kind of form of the composition of the shape data of separation L1.As shown in Figure 6, shape data comprises the vertex coordinates data that is made of apex coordinate A1~A8, and the polygonal shape data that constitute by polygon data P1~P6 or the like.As shown in Figure 7, by mode, just can set out the three-dimensional shape of separation L1 with each apex coordinate A1~A8 on the vertex coordinates data constrain height level L1.The polygonal shape data are used to the texture and the characteristic of each face on the separation L1 that defines.If be exactly concretely, each polygon data P1~P6 that constitutes the polygonal shape data is made of surface data (Surface Data) and summit sequence number respectively.Whether surface data comprises surface color, peripheral end points, transparency, has a width of cloth to be attached to the designation data of its lip-deep image (tissue lines) or the like usefulness.Vertex data forms the data on the summit of each surperficial usefulness for expression.The shape data of separation L1 can be constituted in such a way, and the shape data of separation L2~L17 can be constituted respectively in essentially identical mode.The information that in shape data, is also comprising the connecting portion R (referring to Fig. 5) of relevant each separation.
Therefore, the communication Caraok device 100 in this form of implementation can be produced singer's video according to action data and shape data.As Fig. 4 and shown in Figure 6, action data and shape data constitute by data data of coordinate data, angle-data, sequence number data, indication image color or the like, that data volume is less.Therefore, can utilize the less data creating of data volume to go out singer's video.And, can be separated into action data and shape data by singer's image data that the communication Caraok device 100 in this form of implementation is produced.Action data and shape data can be the less data of data volume, also can make action data and shape data be in a ratio of the less data of data volume.Therefore, can produce every first melody is different action datas, and with its be attached to each first melody on the intrinsic action data.Promptly because the data volume of action data is very little, though additional have every first melody different action data, also increase data processing that can be not excessive and storage burden.If be exactly for instance, when by center principal computer 200 when communication Caraok device 100 transmits action datas, can transmit this action data at short notice.Even the occasion for the melody number increases by the mode to every first melody storage action data, also can reduce the memory capacity of the memory storage of CD-ROM and center principal computer 200 significantly.
(4) melody and singer's video is synchronous
The method of synchronization to melody of being reset out by Karaoke performance parts 10 and the singer's video that is generated by video playback portion 30 describes below.
Melody mainly is to reset out with the automatic playing function among the CPU11 by being arranged on sound.As mentioned above, sound can carry out automatic playing according to midi format according to voice data with CPU11.At this moment, can carry out basic time control to automatic playing with the MIDI time clock.If for instance, the MIDI pulse signal can be the signal by 24 time clock of 4 dieresis output of melody.For the occasion that the melody beat changes, the recurrence interval of MIDI clock pulse signal will change along with the variation of melody beat.
In melody, preestablished the benchmark beat.This benchmark beat is included in the music data as beat data Tm.This benchmark beat is different for each first melody, such as for the occasion of the melody of rock music with rhythmical image or the like, can set than benchmark beat faster.And, can set slow benchmark beat for the occasion of adagio melodies such as folk rhyme.Melody is normally reset according to the benchmark beat.Yet when the input by input part 17 changes its beat, melody will be implemented to reset according to the beat of being imported.Such as when changing into than benchmark beat faster during beat, melody will according to than benchmark beat faster beat reset.
On the other hand, singer's video is mainly generated by singer's video generating unit 36.As mentioned above, singer's video generating unit 36 is according to action data and shape data, generates and---the corresponding instantaneous image data of frame singer video, and it is passed to synthetic portion 50 according to the video cycle of resetting.Be that singer's video generating unit 36 can generate instantaneous image data successively in making with storer 36A, and the instantaneous image data that is generated be passed to demonstration storer 36B according to the video cycle of resetting.Therefore, can on monitor 90, demonstrate the singer's video that changes by the video playback cycle by synthetic portion 50.
Here, the mensuration cycle that video uses when resetting cycle and making action data is same one-period, such as is 1/15 second.Promptly as mentioned above, can be by pressing benchmark beat Tm playback melody, make human body do actual motion (wave, beat) according to the mode that matches with this melody of resetting out, and carry out the position of each inscape on the human body of this motion and the mode of rotation according to predetermined mensuration period measurement, produce action data.Therefore, by utilizing the action data of producing in such a way to generate instantaneous image data, and export the mode of this instantaneous image data according to the video playback cycle identical with the mensuration cycle, just the human motion in the time of can reproducing mensuration substantially, thereby yet the singer's video that can reset and come from smooth motion.Here, the video cycle of resetting normally keeps certain.
The video cycle of resetting also can be set according to the mode of the integral multiples of 90 display cycles of monitor.Promptly when monitor 90 is made of CRT monitor or LCD, it have monitor intrinsic display cycle.If for instance, the display cycle of the CRT monitor of general TSC-system formula is 1/30 second.The CRT monitor of TSC-system formula of occasion when being to(for) monitor 90, the video cycle of resetting can be set at 1/30 second twice, promptly 1/15 second.Therefore can on monitor 90, demonstrate singer's video of each frame smoothly, thereby make the motion that the video that is presented on the monitor 90 can be level and smooth.
Melody and singer's video mainly be, to realize during at sound synchronously according to playback frame numerical table Ts with CPU11 output synchronizing signal by singer's video generating unit 36.
Synchronizing signal can be the signal in a time clock of per 8 dieresis output of melody.This synchronizing signal can generate by the mode of the MIDI time clock being carried out frequency division.The recurrence interval of synchronizing signal also will be along with variation when changing at the melody beat.This synchronizing signal can be generated with CPU11 by sound.
Playback frame numerical table Ts can make in a manner described below.At first as shown in Figure 9, affix pulse sequence number on each time clock of synchronizing signal.This pulse sequence number by the beginning portion of melody to ending by 1,2,3 ... mode increase successively.Below as shown in Figure 9, additional frame sequence number on each frame of singer's video.This frame number also by the beginning of melody to ending press F1, F2, F3 ... mode increase successively.Press the occasion that the benchmark beat is reset for melody, can calculate the recurrence interval of synchronizing signal, and reset the cycle, obtain each clock pulse signal of synchronizing signal respectively and the frame number of the frame that matches with the time according to this recurrence interval and video.Corresponding relation between each time clock sequence number and the frame number and is recorded among the playback frame numerical table Ts as shown in Figure 8.Therefore in playback frame numerical table Ts, the occasion of resetting by the benchmark beat for melody, the frame number of the frame that matches in time with each clock pulse signal in the synchronizing signal is according to implementing to write down with the corresponding mode of each frame number.Here, the occasion of resetting according to the benchmark beat for melody, the frame with each clock pulse signal in the synchronizing signal matches in time promptly is called as " synchronization frame " with the corresponding frame of frame number that is recorded on the playback frame numerical table Ts.Such as for as shown in Figure 8 playback frame numerical table Ts, synchronization frame is frame F1, F4, F7, F11.In Fig. 9 to Figure 11, the frame that has oblique line in frame is a synchronization frame.The making of this playback frame numerical table Ts can be finished by singer's video generating unit 36 in music replaying is about to begin.
Below with reference to Fig. 8 to Figure 11, " principle of melody and singer's video synchronised " is described.
1. melody is pressed benchmark beat playback time
When melody according to benchmark beat playback time, singer's video generating unit 36 when melody begins to reset, demonstrates the first frame F1 as shown in Figure 9, subsequently by resetting successively with the parallel mutually mode of music replaying and demonstrating each frame.Be singer's video generating unit 36 in the mode parallel mutually, generate and form the instantaneous image data that each frame is used, and, export the instantaneous image data that is generated to synthetic portion 50 according to the cycle t that resets of video as shown in Figure 9 with music replaying.Synthetic portion 50 by with the mode of the intrinsic display cycle synchronised of monitor, will export monitor 90 to the corresponding image of instantaneous image data.
Here, forming the action data that instantaneous image data is used, is by making melody by benchmark beat playback time, measures that the mode of the human motion that matches with melody generates.Therefore work as melody with benchmark beat playback time, be consistent demonstration zero hour of the zero hour that makes music replaying and each frame of singer's video, if make the playback of melody carry out parallel so, just can make the action of the playback of melody and singer's video synchronous automatically with the demonstration of each frame.Yet, for the playback beat of melody the occasion that changes having taken place in playback procedure, or the occasion of resetting once more after temporarily stopping for melody or the like, need confirm frequently the corresponding time relationship between the demonstration of the playback of melody and each frame.In the playback procedure of melody, singer's video generating unit 36 can be according to synchronizing signal and playback frame numerical table Ts, and the corresponding time relationship between the demonstration of the playback of melody and each frame is confirmed frequently.If for instance, for playback frame numerical table Ts as shown in Figure 8, the time clock 1 in the synchronizing signal is corresponding with frame F1, and time clock 2 is corresponding with frame F4.And time clock 3 is corresponding with frame F7, and time clock 4 is corresponding with frame F11.Singer's video generating unit 36 is by making corresponding relation between time clock sequence number and the frame number and the corresponding to mode of statement among the playback frame numerical table Ts implement to confirm, and singer's video is implemented to show.
2. work as melody by the beat playback time slower than benchmark beat
Press the beat playback time slower than benchmark beat when melody, singer's video generating unit 36 will be inserted interpolation frame G1, G2 as shown in figure 10 between frame and frame.Promptly work as melody by the beat playback time slower than benchmark beat, because each frame is implemented to show according to video playback cycle t, and each frame shows according to playback order, so the action of singer's video will be early than the playback of melody, thereby makes melody and singer's video no longer synchronous.Therefore press the beat playback time slower than benchmark beat when melody, singer's video generating unit 36 will be inserted interpolation frame G1, G2 in order to make the time clock sequence number consistent with corresponding relation and the statement among the playback frame numerical table Ts between the frame number between frame.
Here, be used to generate the action data that corresponding instantaneous image data with interpolation frame G1, G2 uses (below be called " interpolation action data "), can according to the corresponding action data of frame at dead ahead, the insertion position place that is configured in interpolation frame (below be called " positive front side action data "), with with the corresponding action data of frame at dead astern, the insertion position place that is configured in interpolation frame (below be called " positive rear side action data "), it is calculated.Be exactly that if the motion of singer's video is more violent, when making difference between the value of positive front side action data and positive rear side action data bigger, the mean value that can get positive front side action data and positive rear side action data is as the interpolation action data more specifically.If the motion of singer's video is slower, when making difference between the value of positive front side action data and positive rear side action data smaller, then can get any one value in positive front side action data and the positive rear side action data as the interpolation action data.Like this, even melody is reset by the beat slower than benchmark beat, also can be easy to make melody and singer's video to realize synchronously, and can make the level and smooth action of singer's video that demonstrates.
3. work as melody by the beat playback time faster than benchmark beat
Press the beat playback time faster than benchmark beat when melody, singer's video generating unit 36 will be removed a part of frame as shown in figure 11 between each frame.Such as be F3, F6, F9, F10, F13 or the like, with choosing between each frame is implemented.Promptly work as melody by the beat playback time faster than benchmark beat, because each frame is implemented to show according to video playback cycle t, and each frame shows according to playback order, so the action of singer's video will be later than the playback of melody, thereby makes melody and singer's video no longer synchronous.Therefore singer's video generating unit 36 is according to the corresponding relation and the corresponding to mode of statement among the playback frame numerical table Ts that make between time clock sequence number and the frame number, selects between each frame is implemented.Like this, even press the beat playback time faster, also can be easy to make melody and singer's video to realize synchronously than benchmark beat when melody.
(5) synchronous image generates and handles
, synchronous image is generated processing describe to process flow diagram shown in Figure 14 below with reference to Figure 12.Synchronous image generates and handles is to show the processing that singer's video is used according to the mode with the music replaying synchronization action, is specializing of above-mentioned " principle of melody and singer's video synchronised ".It is according to the control program among the ROM32 that is stored in video playback portion 30 that this synchronous image generates processing, is mainly implemented by singer's video generating unit 36.
At first, user's operation inputting part 17 of communication Caraok device 100, select the melody that needs playback, the sound of Karaoke in the performance parts 10 by corresponding mode, will locate to be passed to RAM12 by music data storage part 16 or the like with CPU11 with the selected corresponding music data of melody that goes out.Sound also by extracting beat data in the music data that is transmitted, and identifies the benchmark beat of melody with CPU11 according to this beat data.And sound also exports the beat data that is extracted to video CPU31 with CPU11.
Use in the course of action of CPU11 at this sound, the video of video playback portion 30 is read out and the selected corresponding image data of melody that goes out by image data storage part 34 with CPU31, and the action data that will comprise this image data is passed to singer's video generating unit 36.Video also reads shape data by shape data storage part 35 with CPU31, and this shape data is passed to singer's video generating unit 36.Video will export singer's video generating unit 36 to by sound with the beat data that CPU11 receives with CPU31 subsequently.In singer's video generating unit 36, start synchronous image then and generate processing.
In step S1 as shown in figure 12, singer's video generating unit 36 receives action data, shape data and beat data.And when receiving shape data, just this shape data is stored in and makes of among the storer 36A (step S5).When receiving action data, the This move data storage is used among the storer 36A (step S5) in making.When receiving beat data, this beat data is stored in the storer that is arranged within singer's video generating unit 36 subsequently.
In step S6, singer's video generating unit 36 judges whether to have received needed shape data then.If consequently do not receive needed shape data, then be back to step S1, receive shape data once more.
Then in step S7, that singer's video generating unit 36 judges whether to have received is needed, with the corresponding action data of selected melody.If consequently do not receive needed action data, then be back to step S1, receive action data once more.
In step S8, the viewpoint position and the light source position of singer's video that singer's video generating unit 36 will show on monitor 90 are set to initial position then.Viewpoint position is being represented the direction of the singer being got phase.Such as singer's video generating unit 36 can be selected to get from the singer front video of phase time, measures the video of phase time from a singer left side and get the video of phase time from the singer right side.And, the video when singer's video generating unit 36 can also be selected singer's nearside feature, and the video during singer's distally.Light source position is being represented to the singer and is being carried out illuminating illumination (spotlight) position.Such as the video of singer's video generating unit 36 can select by upper left side irradiation singer the time, the video during by upper right side irradiation singer, and the video during by the front illuminated singer.When light source position is set in initial position, selection be video during by upper left side irradiation singer.
In step S9, singer's video generating unit 36 calculates the recurrence interval of using by the synchronizing signal of benchmark beat playback time at melody according to the beat data that is received by step S4 then.Reset the cycle according to the recurrence interval and the video of this synchronizing signal then, produce playback frame numerical table Ts as shown in Figure 8.
In step S10 as shown in figure 13, singer's video generating unit 36 identifies the replay position of melody then.Be that common melody is that beginning by this melody begins to reset, but specified the occasion of music replaying position for user's operation inputting part 17, melody will be begun to reset by this assigned address.Specify the occasion of the replay position of melody for user's operation inputting part 17, the replay position data of indicating this replay position to use will be sent to singer's video generating unit 36 by input part 17.Here, additional on each time clock of synchronizing signal have a time clock sequence number.Singer's video generating unit 36 is coincide the replay position data and the contrast of time clock sequence number that are sent by input part 17, to determine the replay position of melody.
In step S11, singer's video generating unit 36 judges whether to receive the playback sign on of melody then.Promptly when user's operation inputting part 17 input is used for instruction that melody begins to reset, this instruction will be passed to sound CPU11 by input part 17.Sound with the corresponding beginning by melody, or is begun the playback of melody with CPU11 by the replay position of appointment.The instruction that the beginning music replaying is used also will be passed to singer's video generating unit 36 by input part 17.When the judged result of singer's video generating unit 36 in step S11 is " YES ",, or begin the demonstration of singer's video by the replay position of appointment with corresponding beginning by melody.
In step S12, singer's video generating unit 36 judges whether to receive the playback END instruction of melody then.Promptly when 17 inputs of user's operation inputting part are used for the instruction of music replaying end (or termination), this instruction will be passed to sound CPU11 by input part 17.Sound will finish the playback of melody correspondingly with CPU11.And the instruction that the end music replaying is used also will be passed to singer's video generating unit 36 by input part 17.When the judged result of singer's video generating unit 36 in step S12 is " YES ", will finish the demonstration of singer's video correspondingly, finish synchronous image simultaneously and generate processing.On the other hand, when not receiving the playback END instruction of melody, the judged result of singer's video generating unit 36 in step S12 is " NO ".Being transferred to step S13 subsequently handles.
In step S13 and step S14, singer's video generating unit 36 judges whether to receive sets the instruction that viewpoint position and light source position are used.Be that the user can operation inputting part 17, the instruction that viewpoint position and light source position are used is set in input when needed.The instruction that setting viewpoint position and light source position are used will be sent to singer's video generating unit 36 by input part 17.Accordingly, singer's video generating unit 36 will be this instruction storage in the storer that is arranged at singer's video generating unit 36 inside (step S15).
In step S16, singer's video generating unit 36 will generate and the corresponding instantaneous image data of each frame singer video according to being stored in shape data and the action data of making of among the storer 36A then.
And generating instantaneous image data to after through 1/15 second, singer's video generating unit 36 will judge whether to receive in step S18 by sound with the time clock in the synchronizing signal of CPU11 output.
When time clock that singer's video generating unit 36 receives in the synchronizing signal, be transferred to step S22 and handle.In step S22, singer's video generating unit 36 is judged the moment of the time clock in receiving synchronizing signal, and whether the frame of the current singer's video that demonstrates is synchronization frame.If the judged result among the step S22 is the moment of the time clock in receiving synchronizing signal, when the frame of the current singer's video that demonstrates was synchronization frame, singer's video generating unit 36 showed the processing of this synchronization frame.
As mentioned above, synchronization frame is when pressing benchmark beat playback melody, in time with synchronizing signal in the corresponding to frame of each time clock.Therefore the occasion of resetting by the benchmark beat for melody, the recurrence interval in the synchronizing signal is consistent with the display cycle of synchronization frame.Like this will be as shown in Figure 9, for the occasion that melody is reset by the benchmark beat, the frame of singer's video that the time clock in receiving synchronizing signal demonstrates constantly automatically becomes synchronization frame.
Yet on the other hand, judged result in step S22 is for receiving the moment of the time clock in the synchronizing signal, when the frame of the current singer's video that demonstrates is not synchronization frame, singer's video generating unit 36 will be abandoned this frame in step S23, and use to be in from the time that the immediate synchronization frame in position replaces the frame that this is abandoned the synchronization frame of this frame rear side, and carry out display process.
This phenomenon the melody beat than benchmark beat faster occasion can occur.Promptly along with the quickening of melody beat, will shorten the clock cycle in the synchronizing signal.On the other hand, the cycle of each frame of demonstration singer video is that the video that keeps certain is usually reset the cycle.Therefore no matter being to choosing between frame enforcement, still implementing the interpolation of interpolation frame, all is to make the display cycle of frame keep certain usually.Therefore when the melody beat is faster than benchmark beat, the cycle of time clock will be shorter than the cycle that display synchronization frame is used, thereby the frame that can appear at singer's video that moment of receiving the time clock in the synchronizing signal demonstrates is not the phenomenon of synchronization frame.For the occasion that has this phenomenon, can abandon this frame as shown in figure 11, and use and be in from the time that the immediate synchronization frame in position replaces the frame that this is abandoned the synchronization frame of this frame rear side, and then implement to show.This show carried out between the choosing.
On the other hand, in step S18, singer's video generating unit 36 does not receive the occasion of the time clock in the synchronizing signal, is transferred to step S19 and handles.In step S19, singer's video generating unit 36 judges whether the frame of the current singer's video that demonstrates is synchronization frame.If the judged result in step S19 is the frame of the current singer's video that demonstrates is not synchronization frame, then singer's video generating unit 36 is carried out the display process of this frame.
Yet on the other hand, be that the frame of the current singer's video that demonstrates is the occasion of synchronization frame, be transferred to step S20 and handle for the judged result in step S19.Singer's video generating unit 36 generates interpolation frame in step S20, and in step S21 subsequently, inserts the interpolation frame that is generated in the dead ahead of current synchronization frame to display side.Subsequently, 36 pairs of interpolation frames that inserted of singer's video generating unit carry out display process.
This phenomenon can occur in the melody beat occasion slower than benchmark beat.I.e. slack-off along with the melody beat, the clock cycle in the synchronizing signal is with elongated.On the other hand, the cycle of each frame of demonstration singer video is that the video that keeps certain is usually reset the cycle.Therefore no matter being to choosing between frame enforcement, still implementing the interpolation of interpolation frame, all is to make the display cycle of frame keep certain usually.Therefore when the melody beat is slower than benchmark beat, the cycle of time clock will be longer than the cycle that display synchronization frame is used, thereby may be in the moment that does not receive time clock, and the frame that just makes the current singer's video that demonstrates is that the phenomenon of synchronization frame occurs.For the occasion that has this phenomenon, can generate interpolation frame as shown in figure 10, and insert the interpolation frame that is generated in the dead ahead of current synchronization frame to display side.
The processing that display frame is used is undertaken by step S24~S27.Promptly in step S24, singer's video generating unit 36 according to the information of corresponding action data of the frame that will show and relevant viewpoint position, the coordinate in calculating the polygon displaing coordinate and being.So just, can calculate the viewpoint position of determining singer's video according in instruction step S13 input, that the setting viewpoint position is used.
Then in step S25, singer's video generating unit 36 is with according to shape data, about the information of light source position and the information of relevant viewpoint position, and card is enclosed and organized lines (texture: the image of presentation surface texture or the like).So just, can be on each surface of polygon (polygon :) with the corresponding unit of each inscape video that constitutes singer's video, surperficial apperance and texture that affix changes with viewpoint position.
In step S26, singer's video generating unit 36 is carried out the polygonal processing (shading: the processing of additional shadow on image) that covers according to the information of relevant light source position and the information of relevant viewpoint position then.So just, can on each polygon, add by formed shade of light source direction or the like.
In step S27, the instantaneous image data that singer's video generating unit 36 will generate in making with storer 36A is passed to demonstration storer 36B then.So just, the corresponding image of each frame with singer's video can be exported to synthetic portion 50, and then after in synthetic portion 50, synthesizing, be presented on the monitor 90 with lyrics image and background images.
After the processing that finishes step S24~S27, be back to step S12 and handle, repeat the processing among implementation step S12~S27.So just, can in music replaying, on monitor 90, demonstrate singer's video as shown in figure 15, that it moves and melody matches.And when the instruction that user's end of input music replaying is used, or music replaying finishes music replaying during to this finale, and finishes synchronous image thereupon and generate and handle.
Therefore, if adopt communication Caraok device 100 in this form of implementation, can utilize fewer data volume to generate the dynamic singer's video that matches with melody by the mode of usage operation data and shape data.In the time of particularly will generating data separating that singer's video uses and be action data and shape data, can by only on each first melody the affix data volume demonstrate dynamic singer's videos than the mode of shape data action data still less to the different actions of each first melody.Promptly because the data volume of action data is considerably less, so, also the increase of posting field, the prolongation of transfer speed of data can be suppressed to minimum limit even to every first melody affix action data.And because the data volume of action data is considerably less, so can pass out action data at short notice by center principal computer 200 by telephone wire.If therefore action data is stored in the memory storage in the center principal computer 200, also can at short notice action data be passed to communication Caraok device 100.So just, can use communication Caraok device 100 in the playback of carrying out various melodies, its action and singer's video that this melody matches are shown.
And, adopt the constituted mode of action data and shape data storage separated from one another, can be provided with and the shown corresponding some kinds of shape datas of video kind that go out,, can change the image of the motion video that matches with melody significantly by changing the mode of shape data kind.Form the shape data that male sex's video uses and form these two kinds of shape datas of shape data that women's video is used such as can set, and do not change action data, so at these two kinds of videos of motion video of motion video that in first melody, can demonstrate the male sex and women.And, can also be provided with the automatic assembly of selected shape data of type (tune and singer are the male sex or women or the like) according to melody.Such as can go into to select the mode of the selection data that shape data uses by record in music data, automatically select the singer's video that matches with melody.When instruction that user's operation inputting part 17 input selected shape data are used, video can adopt the structure constituted mode that can respond this Instruction Selection shape data with CPU31 or singer's video generating unit 36.
If adopt the communication Caraok device 100 in this form of implementation, because music data can separate fully with action data, so affix action data on original music data easily.Such as when resetting the music data of original storage, human body is moved by the mode that matches with this melody of resetting out, measure the action of this human body and generate action data, just can generate the corresponding action data of music data with original storage.The action data of Sheng Chenging can be passed to communication Caraok device 100 by center principal computer 200 in such a way, thus can be easily on the music data of original storage the corresponding action data of affix.Therefore no longer need to be made at once the music data of original storage, so can effectively utilize the music data of original storage.
And, if adopt aforesaid form of implementation, show that the recurrence interval of the video playback period ratio synchronizing signal that each frame is used is short.Here, the beat of melody is represented by the number of 4 dieresis in per 1 minute usually.Compare melody faster for beat, the number maximum of 4 per 1 minute dieresis can reach about 240.On the other hand, the recurrence interval of synchronizing signal is the cycle of the time clock exported of each 8 dieresis of melody, and what reset when per 1 minute is the number of 4 dieresis when being 240 melody, and the recurrence interval of synchronizing signal is 1/8 second.Corresponding is, show video that each frame is used reset the cycle can for, such as 1/15 second.Therefore the cycle that shows the video playback period ratio synchronizing signal that each frame is used is short.
Like this, owing to show that the cycle of the video playback period ratio synchronizing signal that each frame is used is short, can between each time clock of output synchronizing signal, demonstrate several frames.Such as shown in Figure 9, between the output time clock 2 subsequently, just can show 4 frame F1~F4 by output time clock 1.Therefore in the time of between each time clock of output synchronizing signal, can demonstrating several frames, the beat of melody is faster than benchmark beat, by as shown in figure 11, a choosing falls the mode of a part of frame, also can be easily and melody and video are kept synchronously.On the other hand, even when the beat of melody is slower than benchmark beat, by mode as shown in figure 10, that insert interpolation frame between each frame, also can be easily and correctly make melody and video keep synchronous.
And, if adopt the communication Caraok device 100 in this form of implementation, can on each time clock that constitutes synchronizing signal, affix discern the time clock sequence number that the music replaying position is used, thereby can identify the replay position of melody frequently, and can in the traveling process of melody, easily reset, the melody F.F., the counter-rotating or the like the operation.
In aforementioned form of implementation, be to insert interpolation frame, but also can insert synchronization frame in the dead astern of synchronization frame or between other frame in the dead ahead of synchronization frame side.Than the slow many occasions of benchmark beat, need interior continuously several interpolation frames that insert for the melody beat.For this occasion, the insertion position of each interpolation frame can be spread out.Can make the action of shown object more level and smooth like this.Similarly, for the melody beat occasion fast more many than benchmark beat, need continuously between choosing fall several frames.For this occasion, also the position of the frame that each choosing can be fallen spreads out.Can make the action of the shown object that goes out more level and smooth like this.And, the dispersion treatment of carrying out for the insertion position of each interpolation frame, choosing is handled between the dispersion of carrying out for each frame, can perform calculations in the playback procedure of melody and find the solution, and also can perform calculations when the beat of music replaying is implemented to set and find the solution.
