Abstract
本发明提供一种在遥控器中而不是一个数字电视接收机或机顶盒中存储一个用户/消费者的个人信息或概况的方法和系统。存储的信息是个人信息,诸如姓名,地址,等等,以及与商务活动有关的信息,像一个信用卡号码。该信息将会使一些电子设备的使用个性化,并且能够适应更快,可携带,更有效和更方便的电子商务。
Description
发明领域
本发明涉及使用一台电视或一个有线电视遥控设备存储个人信息的方法和系统,尤其涉及使各种服务更方便的设备的使用,这些服务很多是与电子商务相关的。
发明背景
现在的电视系统已经越来越成为传送电子商务和个性化服务的重要工具。电子商务就是通过因特网买卖商品和服务。电子商务和个性化服务在因特网上是非常普遍的,一个用户可以接入万维网站点和从事商品或服务的买和/或卖。
现代化的电视既可通过一个机顶盒,也可通过一个数字电视接收机来传送节目,而它们是可操作地连接到电视监视器上的。许多机顶盒/数字电视接收机连接到有线电视,卫星,或其它的电视信号源,还有因特网。这里提到的“数字接收设备”,是指机顶盒,数字电视接收机以及其它任何能够控制可操作地连接到其上的一个电子设备的操作的设备。
机顶盒/数字电视(“STB/DTV”)接收机也是可操作地直接和一个遥控设备相通信,这里提到的一个“数字遥控设备”包括任何能够从远端控制一个数字接收设备的遥控设备。一个遥控设备通常类似于带有用来选择电视台音量控制的按键的标准的电视遥控器。目前,个人数字助理(“PDAs”)以及甚至蜂窝电话都可以用做为一个电视遥控器。一个PDA就是一个手持或膝上电脑设备。
如今用蜂窝电话和PDA进行电子商务活动已经成为可能。同样,通过STB/DTV接收机进入因特网进行电子商务活动也已是现有技术了。
电子商务的另一个概念就是“电子打折卡”。在这里,一张电子打折卡就是一张纸件打折卡的电子版,使持有者有资格享受到购买物品或服务的价格优惠。
这种电子商务和这些个人服务都需要集中该用户或消费者的个人信息并且存储起来。交易的模式已经发展到能够确保通过STB/DTVs,PDAs和蜂窝电话的安全交易,以及无须介入该用户的个人隐私就可以集中他的个人信息。
个人信息(在这里也被称做“个人概况信息”或“个人概况”)可以包括,但不仅限于用户的以下一个或多个信息:姓名,信用卡(或自动柜员机卡)号码,个人识别号码,年龄,性别,职业,收入等级,最喜欢的电视节目,电视机的个人设置(默认的频道,音量,等等),或者任何其它的用户特定的信息(通常随着用户的不同而不同)。
从用户处集中一个个人概况信息存在一个问题,就是他们经常是每换一台电视或一个因特网入口就必须输入基本的信息。因此,这些基本信息,诸如该用户/消费者的姓名,信用卡号码,个人识别号码(用于自动会员机卡),年龄以及性别都要在用户/消费者每打算进行一次交易时再一次重新输入。
从用户处集中一个个人概况信息的另一个问题是,用户很少愿意费时费力地去修改因为时间的推移以及个人的品位变化和播出节目发生变动而改变的个人概况信息。
尽管一些STB/DTV接收机系统允许用户一次性输入基本信息,但是在用户每次接入该特定的入口站或广播站的服务时都必须键入一个登录名/密码。此信息在从一个网站/台换到另一个时是不会再保留的。而且,该STB/DTV接收机可能服务于很多用户,而每个用户都有他们各自的一套个人信息。
因此,现在就需要一种方法,能够可选择地操作一个可提供用户偏好的电子设备,在该电子设备中,包含该用户偏好的个人概况信息从一个数字遥控设备发送至一个数字接收机设备,以便该数字接收机设备能够可选择地控制该电子设备的操作以便提供该用户的该个人偏好。
发明概述
因此,本发明的一个目的就是提供一种方法和系统用来在遥控器上而不是一个数字电视接收机/机顶盒上存储该个人概况信息。另一个目的是在遥控器上存储用户的个人信息,如姓名,地址,等等,以及与商务活动相关的信息,如一个信用卡号码。这个信息将会使一些电子设备的使用个性化,并且能够适应更快,更方便和更有效的电子商务。
本发明的一个实施例解决了现有技术的需要,它提供一种数字遥控设备,该设备把用户的个人概况信息存储在位于其自身的一个数据库中。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,该数字遥控设备是一个个人数字助理。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,该用户的个人概况信息通过该数字遥控设备的键盘和显示器输入。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,该用户的个人概况信息通过一个数字遥控设备和该数字接收机控制的显示器输入。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,该用户的个人概况信息包括以下一个或多个信息:用户姓名,地址,电话号码,信用卡号码,个人识别号码,其它的收费账号信息,电子商务账号信息,年龄,性别,职业,最喜欢的电视节目,最喜欢的个人电视设置,以及最喜欢的因特网的万维网站。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,该用户的个人概况信息从该数字接收机设备里更新以便包含当前用户的观赏习惯,该观赏习惯是从一套适用于该数字接收机设备的电子编程指南数据中得到的。电子编程指南数据是由网络内容提供商经常向数字接收机设备提供的。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,建立一个因特网连接以便进行电子商务活动。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,一张电子打折卡可以通过该数字遥控设备接收或发送以便用于电子商务。这可以通过因特网,或者扫描一个商店里的条码,或者在商品还在被摆放的时候就从该数字电视的广播中下载下来,或者其它任何方法来实现。
本发明也涉及一个存储和使用一个用户的个人概况信息的系统,它包含可操作地连接到一个被控制的电子设备的数字接收机设备,以及一个数字遥控设备。
该数字遥控设备用来执行上面描述的方法。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,该系统包含一个用做该数字接收机设备的数字电视接收机。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,该系统包含一个用做该数字接收机设备的机顶盒。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,该系统包含一个数字遥控设备,后者包含一个可操作地耦合到一个微处理器的计算机可存取的存储器。该微处理器用来运行一个数据库以存储该用户的个人概况信息。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,该系统包含一个可操作地耦合到一个提供因特网接入的通信信道的数字接收机设备。该数字接收机设备包含一个计算机可存取的存储器,以及一个可操作地耦合到该存储器和该通信信道的微处理器。该微处理器用做一个因特网浏览器。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,该系统包含一个用做该数字遥控设备的个人数字助理。该个人数字助理可以自身带有一个计算机可存取的存储器,后者可操作地耦合到一个用做因特网浏览器的微处理器上。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,该系统包含一个用做该数字遥控设备的蜂窝电话。该蜂窝电话可以自身带有一个计算机可存取的存储器,后者可操作地耦合到一个用做因特网浏览器的微处理器上。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,该遥控器包含一个类似于条形码阅读器的扫描仪,它通过扫描商店中的商品的条形码来下载对应于该商品的电子打折卡。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,该数字遥控设备被配置成用来从该数字遥控器外部的信息源和该用户接收所说的用户个人概况信息。在该配置中,该数字遥控设备能够,比如说,通过从该数字接收机设备的反馈为该用户更新存储的个人概况信息。这具有很大的超出现有技术的优越性,可以使用户免于费时费力地去修改因为时间的推移以及个人的品位变化和播出节目发生变动而改变的个人概况信息。
本发明在现有技术基础上的其它改进将可以从以下详细描述的本发明的优选实施例中得出结论。以下的详细描述不是想要对本发明的范围进行限制,而是仅致力于提供一个本发明优选实施方案的示例。本发明的范围由后面所附的权利要求来限定。
附图简述
附图1是一个框图,描绘了一个根据本发明使用一个数字电视接收机/机顶盒遥控设备存储和使用个人信息的实施例。
附图2示出了根据本发明的一个实施例的结构,该实施例中一个用户要在一个数字电视接收机/机顶盒遥控设备中存储个人概况信息,为此,既可以利用该设备的键盘和由该数字电视接收机/机顶盒控制的一个显示器,又可以用该设备的键盘和显示器来输入。
优选实施方案详述
本发明的一个实施例如附图1所示。一个遥控设备1可操作地连接到一个机顶盒或数字电视(“STB/DTV”)接收机3上。该遥控设备1可以是一个单独的有特定用途的设备,一个蜂窝电话,或者一个个人数字助理。该遥控设备可选的包含一个计算机可读取的存储器和可启动一个用户数据库2的微处理器。
该STB/DTV接收机3控制一个电视监测器4。该电视监测器4和STB/DTV接收机3可以是物理上分开的两个部件,也可以合在一起。该STB/DTV接收机可选地通过一个因特网通信信道8,9连接到该因特网5上,并且在这种情况下,该遥控器1,STB/DTV接收机3,以及监测器4都可以用做一个因特网浏览器。
如果该遥控设备1是一个可以上网的蜂窝电话或者个人数字助理,那么还可以无须牵连到该STB/DTV接收机3或监测器4就能接入因特网。
接入因特网后,该遥控器-STB/DTV接收机-检测器的组合体、使能Web的(Web-enabled)蜂窝电话、或者个人数字助理都可以通过不同的因特网入口使得电子商务8,10的使用趋于方便,以及可进行电子商务中的交易,包括使用电子打折卡11。该用户可以在万维网上浏览商品和服务并选择是否购买它们。当在网上购买时,本发明允许该用户的个人概况信息按用户的意愿直接发送至该因特网的入口站点。而在现有技术中,该用户不得不在每次交易时都输入他们的个人信息。尽管一些因特网入口和万维网零售网站允许该用户保持有限的个人概况信息(如,姓名,地址,信用卡号码等等),但是这些信息在用户搜寻到想要进行电子商务交易的每一个不同的因特网入口或万维网零售网站时还要再次输入。因此本发明的优点就是这些信息可以直接存储在该遥控设备中,这就不用要求该用户进行频繁和耗时的个人概况信息的输入了。
如果该遥控设备是一个可上网的蜂窝电话或个人数字助理,该用户就可以避开该STB/DTV接收机3和该监测器4而直接接入因特网了。
在另一个实施例中,用户个人概况信息、电子商务信息和电子打折卡可以从该遥控设备1发送至该STB/DTV接收机3上。举例来说,该用户的个人概况信息可能包含他们选择的最喜欢的电视频道。在最初的时候将这些信息6从该遥控设备1发送至该STB/DTV接收机3就可以使该STB/DTV接收机3在打开该监测器时就直接定在选定的最喜欢的电视频道上。
在另一个实施例中,该STB/DTV接收机3可以将个人观赏习惯的信息7发送回该遥控设备1,该遥控设备1能够可选择地用这些信息来更新该用户数据库2中的该个人概况信息。
在另一个实施例中,商品或服务的实际的打折卡12上的信息可以通过扫描在打折卡上的一个条形码而被输入该遥控器13。该打折信息可能用在商店14,15的缴款台。
现在来参见附图2,它显示了一个用于用户输入个人概况信息的物理结构的框图。在图2A中,该用户通过按压该遥控器上的键盘16来操作该遥控器1。该用户的输入被发送至STB/DTV接收机3上,后者在电视监测器4上将信息显示出来。
在另一个实施例中,如附图2B所示,该用户的遥控器1可以自带显示器17。这可以使用户通过该遥控器的键盘16直接输入个人概况信息。
尽管本发明的系统和方法是和具体的实施例结合起来描述的,但这并不意味着局限于那些特定的模式,正相反,而是表明覆盖了可以合理地被包含在随后附加的权利要求所定义的本发明的精神和范围内的可选择、修改、以及等同的情况。
