  The printed matter outlet 5 is a box for taking out a print output, and a plurality of print sheets are outputted. Further, an additional member such as a small simple album is also output to the printed matter outlet 5.

  FIG. 2 shows a network system in which the photo printing vending machine 1 having the above-described external configuration is incorporated. The photo printing vending machine 1 is connected to a server 9 via a network 8 such as the Internet. The mobile phone 10 with a camera function is also configured to be connectable to the photo printing vending machine 1 and the server 9 via the network 8. In the figure, 11 indicates a photograph printed out by the photo printing vending machine 1, 11a indicates an image printed on the front surface of the photograph, and 11b indicates a two-dimensional barcode printed on the back surface of the photograph. Show. As the two-dimensional bar code, for example, a QR (Quick Response) code is used in this example.

  In the above configuration, the processing operation of this example will be described below. Note that a digital movie moving image is recorded in the storage medium described in this example, and a desired image is selected from the moving image and printed out.

  First, the user goes to a place where the photo printing vending machine 1 is installed, and inserts a storage medium on which a digital movie moving image is recorded into the aforementioned media insertion slot 3. The photo printing vending machine 1 reads out the moving image recorded on the inserted storage medium and displays it on the display / operation unit (display & touch panel) 2.

  FIG. 3 shows a display example in this case. A digital movie moving image is displayed in the “moving image” portion shown in the figure, and the user presses the stop button at the timing when the moving image desired to be printed is displayed. FIG. 4 shows a state in which the stop button is pressed, the moving image is stopped, and a desired image (still image) is displayed.

  When printing the displayed image, the user inputs the displayed fee and presses the print button. With this process, the photo printing vending machine 1 performs a printing process and outputs the printing result to the printed matter outlet 5.

Here, the following processing is performed in this example. FIG. 5 shows this processing procedure, the left side of FIG. 5 shows the processing of the photo printing vending machine 1, and the right side shows the processing of the server 9.
First, voice data cut-out processing is performed (step (hereinafter referred to as S) 1). Specifically, when printing a still image selected by the user, audio data before and after the time when the still image is recorded are cut out. The audio data to be cut out is audio data of a past time from the time of the still image, and is audio data after the time of the still image. Audio data. However, various patterns can be selected for the time of the audio data to be recorded. The length of the audio data to be recorded is a predetermined length. Furthermore, it is good also as a structure which compresses to the audio | voice data cut out.

  Next, the photo printing vending machine 1 creates unique information (S2). The only information is identification information created by various methods such as information combining the serial number and date of the photo printing vending machine 1 itself, information created based on a random number, information transmitted from the server 9 described above, and the like. It is.

  Next, this unique information and the above-described cut audio data are transmitted from the photo printing vending machine 1 to the server 9 via the network 8 (S3). When the server 9 receives this information (S4), it associates and stores the audio data and the unique information (S5). As a result of this processing, a database in which the voice data of the user who uses the photo printing vending machine 1 and unique information is associated with the server 9 is constructed.

  After the above processing, the above-described printing processing is performed (S6), and the photograph 11 shown in FIG. An image selected by the user is printed on the front surface 11a of the photograph, and a two-dimensional barcode is printed on the back surface 11b. This two-dimensional bar code includes the above-mentioned unique information together with address information on the network such as the URL and telephone number of the server 9.

When the redo button shown in FIG. 4 is pressed, the screen shown in FIG. 3 is restored, and when the redo button shown in FIG. 3 is pressed, the still image selected from the moving image can be selected again.
In the case of a system in which only information is created by the server 9 and transmitted to the photo printing vending machine 1, for example, the procedure is as shown in FIG. That is, when the photo printing vending machine 1 cuts out audio data (S1), the server 9 requests unique information from the server (S2-1), and the server 9 returns the unique information in response (S2-2). S2-5). Then, the photo printing vending machine 1 performs the same processing as described above using this only information (S3 to S6).

For example, when viewing the photograph 11, the user who has acquired the photograph image as described above can hear the sound at the time of photographing using the two-dimensional barcode printed on the back surface 11b.
FIG. 7 is a diagram showing this processing procedure. First, the user who has taken the photograph 11 uses the camera-equipped mobile phone 10 to photograph the two-dimensional barcode printed on the back surface 11b (S7). Next, the camera-equipped mobile phone 10 analyzes the photographed two-dimensional barcode (S8), and acquires address information (for example, URL, telephone number, etc.) on the network recorded there.

  Next, the server 9 is accessed via the network 8 using this address information (S9). Then, the server 9 is requested to transmit audio data corresponding to the only information recorded in the two-dimensional barcode.

  Upon receiving the request, the server 9 searches the aforementioned database and prepares the requested voice data (S10, S11). In this search, the above-mentioned only information is included in the access information from the mobile phone 10, and the audio data corresponding to the condition that the only information matches is read out. Then, the server 9 transmits the audio data as a file to the requested mobile phone 10 (S12). As this audio data file, an appropriate audio file such as MP3 (MPEG audio layer 3), real audio (Real audio (registered trademark)), MIDI (registered trademark) (musical instruments digital interface) file, WAVE file or the like is used. Can be used.

  Next, the mobile phone 10 that has received the audio data file extracts the audio data from the file and reproduces it from the earpiece or speaker of the mobile phone 10 (S13, S14). For example, as shown in FIG. 2, it is possible to reproduce a realistic sound such as “Hi, take a picture! Laugh ~!” From the earpiece or speaker of the mobile phone 10.

By performing the processing as described above, it is possible to substantially add sound to a photograph cut out from a moving image, and to reproduce realistic sound.
In the above description, the server 9 is installed independently. However, with such a configuration, it is necessary to perform both maintenance while associating the corresponding server 9 with the photo printing vending machine 1, which may increase the operating cost. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 8, the above problem can be solved by providing the photo printing vending machine 1 with a server function.

  As described above, according to the present example, when the image is cut out from the moving image and printed on the photo, the audio data corresponding to the image of the photo to be printed can be substantially added to the photo. Can reproduce the atmosphere.

  In the above example, the case where the present invention is applied to the photo printing vending machine 1 has been described. However, the present invention is naturally applicable not only to the self-type photo printing vending machine 1 but also to a printing apparatus owned by the user. Further, when a photograph is divided into a plurality of pieces in one sheet of printing, a two-dimensional barcode may be printed for each.

  Further, the position where the two-dimensional barcode is printed does not necessarily have to be on the back side of the photograph, and may be, for example, a corner of the photograph on the front surface, a frame (margin portion) of the photograph, or the like. Further, the storage location of the audio information is not necessarily a two-dimensional barcode, and other methods such as a character, a symbol, a watermark image, etc. may be used. However, it needs to be analyzed with a mobile phone.

  Further, the means for inputting the storage location of the voice information to the mobile phone 10 is not necessarily the camera of the mobile phone, and the user inputs the address information printed on the photograph by key input or voice input by the user's voice. It is good also as a structure. In addition, two information of the address information on the network and the unique information is recorded on the two-dimensional barcode, but if the address information is a unique address, it is only necessary to record the address information on the two-dimensional barcode, Information recorded on the barcode can be reduced.

  In the above description, the audio information is read from the moving image. However, the moving image for a certain period may be registered without being limited to the audio information. For example, a configuration may be adopted in which a moving image of a certain period before and after a cut out still image is read as a center.

  Further, specific information including audio information and moving image information may be transmitted to the server 9 and registered. In this case, the processing procedure shown in FIG. That is, the process is basically the same as the procedure described with reference to FIG. 5. First, the audio data and video data are cut out (step (hereinafter referred to as STP) 1), and then the above-mentioned unique information is stored. It is created (STP2) and transmitted to the server 9 together with audio data and video data (STP3). Further, when the server 9 receives this information (STP4), it stores the data in association with both pieces of information (STP5), and the photo printing vending machine 1 prints a still image on the surface and also displays a two-dimensional barcode. Printing on the back side (STP6).

Further, when the only information is received from the server 9 side, the processing procedure shown in FIG. 10 is executed. Furthermore, the process of outputting audio information and video data with the mobile phone executes the procedure shown in FIG. 11 (STP7 to STP14).
(Embodiment 2)
Next, Embodiment 2 of the present invention will be described.

In Embodiment 1 described above, the configuration of the printing system has been described using a photo printing vending machine. However, in this example, the printing system is described using a seal creation machine.
FIG. 12 shows the configuration of the seal making machine. In the figure, a sticker creating machine 14 is equipped with a camera 15 for shooting and a microphone 16. The configuration other than the above is the same as the configuration of the photo printing vending machine shown in FIG. 1, and a display / operation unit (display & touch panel) 2, media insertion slot 3, A fee insertion / return port 4 and a printed matter outlet 5 are provided. The display / operation unit (display & touch panel) 2 includes a liquid crystal display and an operation unit (not shown) for selecting keys, buttons, icons, and the like displayed on the liquid crystal display, as described above.

  FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining the configuration of the sticker creating machine 14, and the microphone 16 is configured to A / D-convert and output the input voice. In addition, the shooting camera 15 and the microphone 16 both support moving images, and can continuously output data. The camera buffer 19 is a memory that temporarily stores data captured by the camera 15 for shooting, and the microphone buffer 20 is a memory that temporarily stores sound recorded by the microphone 16.

  Note that the camera buffer 19 and the microphone buffer 20 perform a first in first out (FIFO) operation, and start / stop control of the FIFO operation from the CPU 21 is performed. The microphone buffer 20 has a capacity capable of recording audio data having a certain time width (for example, 10 [sec]), and the camera buffer 19 has a capacity capable of recording one frame of video data.

  The printing circuit 22 is a circuit that prints a sticker, and the communication circuit 23 communicates with the server 9 via the network 8. Further, the money unit 24 is configured to deposit or return a fee, and the display / operation unit (display & touch panel) 2 has the same configuration as described above.

  FIG. 14 shows a network system in which the sticker creating machine 14 having the above-described external configuration is incorporated, and the sticker creating machine 14 is connected to the server 9 via the network 8 such as the Internet as described above. The mobile phone 10 with a camera function is also configured to be connectable to the sticker creating machine 14 and the server 9 via the network 8. In the figure, reference numeral 17 denotes a sticker photo printed out by the sticker making machine 14, 11a denotes an image printed on the front surface of the photo, and 11b denotes a two-dimensional bar code printed on the back surface of the photo. .

In the above configuration, the processing operation of this example will be described below.
First, the user goes to the place where the sticker creation machine 14 is installed, operates the display / operation unit (display & touch panel) 2 and inputs a fee. Then, the current image is displayed on the display / operation unit (display & touch panel) 2.

  Next, the user determines the composition of shooting. For example, a pose is made toward the photographing camera 15 and the operation is performed according to an instruction of the display / operation unit (display & touch panel) 2. By this operation, a countdown display is started on the display / operation unit (display & touch panel) 2. In this process, the camera buffer 19 and the microphone buffer 20 start a FIFO operation under the control of the CPU 21 and perform a countdown display on the display / operation unit (display & touch panel) 2.

  Thereafter, when the countdown is completed, the instantaneous image is printed as a sticker and output from the printed matter outlet 5. When recording only audio data before the time when the countdown ends, the camera buffer 19 stops at the same time as the FIFO operation stops. Further, when recording the time before and after the countdown end time as the middle, after the camera buffer 19 is stopped, the recording is stopped after the audio data can be recorded. In addition, when recording sound data after the countdown is completed, after the camera buffer is stopped, after a sufficient time for recording the audio data has elapsed, that is, the data stored in the microphone buffer is after the camera buffer is stopped. Stop after being filled with all audio data.

  When printing, the seal creating machine 14 not only prints an image on the front surface 17a but also prints a two-dimensional barcode on the back surface 17b. In the two-dimensional bar code, the address information on the net such as URL and telephone number and unique information are recorded as described above.

  FIG. 15 is a diagram for explaining this process. First, a recording process of audio data is performed (step (hereinafter referred to as ST) 1). In this recording process, the microphone 16 records the user's voice before and after the countdown. This audio data is audio data of a past time from the time when the countdown ends, and is audio data after the time when the countdown ends. For example, the time at which the countdown ends is set to the middle, Future voice data.

  However, also in this example, various patterns are possible for the time of the audio data to be recorded. The length of sound data to be recorded may be determined in advance. The audio data may be compressed.

  Next, the seal creator 14 creates unique information (ST2). This unique information can be obtained by various methods such as information combining the serial number and date / time of the stick making machine 14 itself as described above, information created based on a random number, and information transmitted from the server 9 described above. Created.

  Next, this unique information and the recorded voice data are transmitted from the sticker creator 14 to the server 9 via the network 8 (ST3). Upon receiving this information (ST4), the server 9 associates and stores the voice data and the unique information (ST5). By this processing, the server 9 can construct a database that associates the voice data of the user who uses the sticker creating machine 14 with the only information.

  After the above processing, the above-described printing processing is performed (ST6), and a photograph 17 shown in FIG. An image taken by the sticker 14 is printed on the front surface 17a of this photograph, and a two-dimensional barcode is printed on the back surface 17b. In the two-dimensional bar code, the above-mentioned only information is recorded together with the address information on the network such as the URL and telephone number of the server 9 as described above.

  The procedure shown in FIG. 16 is for a system in which unique information is created by the server 9 and transmitted to the photo printing vending machine 1. When the sticker creating machine 14 records voice (ST 1), Information is requested from the server (ST2-1), and in response, the server 9 returns unique information (S2-2 to S2-5). The seal making machine 14 can perform the above-described processing using this unique information (ST3 to ST6).

  For example, when viewing the photograph 17, the user who has acquired the photograph image as described above can hear the sound when the photograph 17 is printed using the two-dimensional barcode printed on the back surface 17 b.

  FIG. 17 is a diagram showing this processing procedure, which is the same as the procedure described in FIG. That is, the user who first gets the photograph 17 uses the camera-equipped mobile phone 10 to photograph the two-dimensional barcode printed on the back surface 17b (ST7). Then, the two-dimensional barcode is analyzed (ST8), and address information (for example, URL, telephone number, etc.) on the network recorded there is obtained.

  Next, the server 9 is accessed via the network 8 using this address information (ST9). Then, the server 9 is requested to transmit audio data corresponding to the only information recorded in the two-dimensional barcode.

  Upon receiving the request, the server 9 searches the aforementioned database, prepares the requested voice data (ST10, ST11), and the server 9 transmits the voice data as a file to the requested mobile phone 10 (ST12). . Then, the cellular phone 10 that has received the audio data reproduces the audio data from the earpiece or speaker of the cellular phone 10 (ST13, ST14).

  By processing as described above, when a sticker (photo) is printed using the sticker creating machine 14, audio data can be substantially added to the photograph simultaneously with the photograph to be printed. It is possible to include a fun atmosphere at the time of shooting as it is in the photograph, and it is possible to construct a sticker creating machine 14 that has a more realistic feeling than before.

In this example as well, the server 9 is installed independently, and a server function may be added to the seal creation machine 14 from the viewpoint of operation cost and the like.
Further, the position where the two-dimensional barcode is printed does not necessarily have to be on the back side of the photograph, and may be, for example, a corner of the photograph on the front surface, a frame (margin portion) of the photograph, or the like. Further, the storage location of the audio information is not necessarily a two-dimensional barcode, and other methods such as a character, a symbol, a watermark image, etc. may be used.

  Further, the means for inputting the storage location of the voice information to the mobile phone 10 is not necessarily the camera of the mobile phone, and the user inputs the address information printed on the photograph by key input or voice input by the user's voice. It is good also as a structure. In addition, the two information of the address information on the network and the unique information is recorded on the two-dimensional barcode, but if the address information is a unique address, it is only necessary to record the address information on the two-dimensional barcode. Information recorded on the barcode can be reduced.

  In the above description, the audio information is read from the moving image. However, the moving image for a certain period may be registered without being limited to the audio information. For example, it may be configured to read a moving image for a certain period before and after a photographed image.

  Further, specific information including audio information and moving image information may be transmitted to the server 9 and registered. In this case, the processing procedure shown in FIG. That is, audio data and video data are cut out (step (hereinafter referred to as W) 1), then the above-mentioned unique information is created (W2), and transmitted to the server 9 together with the audio data and video data. (W3). Further, when the server 9 receives this information (W4), it stores the data in association with both pieces of information (W5), and the photo printing vending machine 1 prints a still image on the surface and a two-dimensional barcode is displayed. Printing on the back side (W6).

  Further, when the only information is received from the server 9 side, the processing procedure shown in FIG. 19 is executed (W1, W2-1 to W2-5, W3 to W6). Furthermore, the process of outputting audio information and video data with the mobile phone executes the procedure shown in FIG. 20 (W7 to W14).

FIG. 21 is a diagram for explaining a circuit configuration in the seal making machine 14 in the case of the above configuration. A configuration different from the above-described FIG. 10 is provided with a print buffer unit 25 for storing video captured by the imaging camera 15.
(Embodiment 3)
Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described.

  In this example, when reproducing audio data, it is convenient if the time at which a still image is cut out or the time at which a photograph is taken can be indicated, and this is a configuration for realizing this. In this example, for example, audio information before and after the time at which a still image is recorded is cut out, and then the camera shutter sound is synthesized with the audio data at the shooting time. This will be specifically described below.

  FIG. 22A is a diagram showing the waveform of the cut-out audio data. FIG. 22B shows audio data in which the time past the time of the still image to be printed is shown. FIG. 22C shows the future. (D) shows the audio data recorded before and after the time of the image to be printed. Then, by synthesizing these waveforms as shown in the figure, audio data in which the “shutter sound” is synthesized is generated.

  The synthesized voice data may be compressed after that. Then, the synthesized voice data is sent from the photo printing vending machine 1 to the server 9 together with the unique information recorded in the two-dimensional barcode (steps (hereinafter referred to as V) 1 to V4 shown in FIG. 23). The server 9 records the received data and unique information in association with each other (V5, V6), and the photo printing vending machine 1 prints a two-dimensional barcode (V7).

When only information is sent from the server 9, the processing shown in FIG. 24 is performed as described above (V1, V2-1 to V2-6, V4 to V7).
With this configuration, a user who has a photograph with a two-dimensional barcode printed on the back side uses the mobile phone 10 to photograph the two-dimensional barcode. Then, the two-dimensional barcode is analyzed, the address information (URL, telephone number, etc.) recorded therein is taken out, and the voice information is acquired from the server 9. In this example, since sound is added to a photo created by cutting out from a moving image, and a shutter sound is added to the time of the cut out photo, the user can enjoy a sense of realism close to a moving image rather than a still image.
