2. Description of the Related Art The development of information media in recent years is remarkable. However, the amount of information has expanded enormously, and viewers' memories and interests are successively replaced by new information, and forgetting is remarkable.

[0003] Therefore, while the memory is low, especially in the case of advertisements and commercials, all means and efforts have been made to use renowned talents and attract viewers' attention at a high cost. .

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to enhance the memory effect of the viewer, there is a demand for a simple and clear media expression method with low cost.

[0005] Kanji represents meaning and content in one character, and is the largest intellectual resource possessed by human beings as characters. If the meaning and the weighting are understood at a glance at a glance based on the characters, it is effective as a means for transmitting information.

[0006] The flood of information, which can be said to be a blind spot in the modern information society, has necessitated a device that can appropriately transmit information. It's hard to imagine that viewers would understand and judge if they simply kept flowing a great deal of information and cost money.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a pendulum-like vibration (hereinafter referred to as a character pendulum representation method) for a character to be projected on a video medium, and the meaning and weight of the character. At a glance.

[0008] The end or part of a kanji is represented by a pendulum, or the whole character is represented by a pendulum.

FIG. 1D shows rain as a natural phenomenon. Gives the impression that it is raining. FIG.
(E) expresses the human expression of tears using the end of the kanji similarly.

FIG. 1 is a pendulum representation of the end of a kanji character, which is characterized in that a person who sees it can memorize the meaning of the character impressively in his mind.

FIG. 2 shows the meaning of the whole kanji character by the pendulum expression method. FIG. 2A shows a state where the wind is blowing. The waveform of the character may be made large depending on the strength of the wind.

FIG. 2B expresses the cold by the whole kanji. All you have to do is move the whole character according to the cold. Figure (c)
Represents anger, and if the entire character is shaken according to the degree of anger, the impression given to the viewer is great.

FIG. 2D shows rain, which is a meteorological phenomenon, in whole characters. Whether this is heavy rain or light rain can also be determined visually by adjusting the pendulum level of the entire character.

FIG. 2E shows a tear, which is one of human expressions. Sad tears or happy tears can be expressed by changing the degree of vibration of the kanji pendulum.

FIGS. 1 and 2 show only one example. At the end or at the beginning of a television commercial, the representation of a single relevant kanji character in the manner according to the present invention is very impressive and impressive for the viewer. The effect as an advertisement is great.

The weather information is represented by sunny, cloudy, rainy, snowy, sun, cloud, and umbrella marks, respectively. These can express the degree of fine weather, cloudy weather, and the magnitude of rain by the pendulum expression method according to the present invention. In the same way, wind and sea waves can be expressed with a single kanji character.

In addition to advertisements, daily media, newspapers, T
Since various kinds of information used in the V can be felt and expressed by one character, it is easy and easily remains in the impression of the viewer. It is also a gospel for people with hearing impairments.

FIG. 3 is a block diagram of a kanji generator according to the pendulum expression method according to the present invention. 31 is a system bus,
Reference numeral 32 denotes a display such as a CRT or an LCD (liquid crystal).

A parameter generator 33 determines the degree of vibration of the pendulum of the character. These parameters determine the degree of vibration at the end of the kanji in FIG. 1 and the magnitude of the vibration in the entire kanji in FIG.

Numeral 34 denotes a kanji database, which stores the meaning and the expression method of the kanji, and data indicating only the end of FIG. 1 or the pendulum method of the entire kanji shown in FIG.

Reference numeral 35 denotes an operation unit for inputting the selection of a kanji and the degree of a pendulum. The degree of pendulum is generated by 33 parameters, but it is decided in 10 steps from 1 to 10,
The magnitude of the vibration can be changed according to the degree.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a system in which images are displayed as media using the pendulum expression method according to the present invention and are broadcast to the public. 41 indicates an Internet network, and 42 indicates a home.

Further, as a content business, when the apparatus shown in FIG. 3 is provided in a server of a service center such as the Internet and a user extracts necessary information from a database, the information of a sponsor (advertisement provider) is added to the pendulum as in the present invention. The effect is even greater with the use of character representation.

[0037]

FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing a generation process of a pendulum character expression method according to the present invention. In step 1, kanji is selected from the operation unit 35. The desired kanji can be extracted from the database 34.

In step 2, the meaning of the character is selected from the database 34. Here, in step 3 for determining the degree of the pendulum, it is determined whether to perform the partial pendulum or the whole pendulum vibration of the kanji.

Step 4 determines the parameters of the partial pendulum. Step 5 determines the overall pendulum.

Step 6 means that the expression method has been determined and the parameters have been set. In step 7, the generated kanji is displayed on the monitor (display) 32.

Although the apparatus is shown in the generation block diagram of the pendulum representation method in FIG. 3, these functions may be stored in a server and utilized in a service center or a broadcasting station.

Furthermore, this pendulum expression method describes the expression method in kanji, but the alphabet, hiragana,
Katakana may be configured as the meaning of one phrase and applied.

For example, if it is wind, it may be expressed as a wind and shaken according to the degree. In case of case, there is a natural phenomenon wind and a disease cold. The latter cold is sick, so the viewer can determine that the pendulum indicates the degree of sickness.

[0044] In the case of English, taking Cold as an example, the meaning can be taken as a cold meaning and a sick cold. Similarly, it can be expressed by the degree of the pendulum.

Similarly, the effect is great when applied to a phrase having two or more Chinese characters. Many kanji are composed of more than two characters. The same goes for proverbs.

With the pendulum expression method according to the present invention, the meaning of four-character idioms such as one-second breath disaster, all-in-one, and causal remuneration can be more visually recognized by the viewer.

The same goes for sayings. Taking the example of picking up chestnuts in the fire, you can express the pendulum whether it is a fire or a chestnut. The ears are on the wall, the itch can be reached, and the flowers bloom on the old tree.

Whether to vibrate the whole phrase or only one specific character in kanji, English and kana may be determined according to the effect and purpose.

[0049]

Since the present invention is configured as described above, it has the following effects.

The end or the whole of the character is vibrated by the pendulum expression according to the meaning, content and degree of one kanji character.

When used for advertising media, public announcements, warnings, etc., the viewer will remain strongly impressed.

A further effect is achieved by pendulum expression of one kanji character at the end of an advertisement, drama, or movie.

Since it can be easily configured with simple devices and programs, the Internet W
Ideal for e-broadcasting and internet business websites.
