  Next, the configuration of the terminal device 202 according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 is a block diagram of terminal apparatus 202 in the first embodiment.

  The terminal device 202 is provided with a content storage unit 110 that stores the content 101. The content storage unit 110 stores content stored in the storage device 203. The content format may be text, still image, audio, moving image, computer graphics, or a combination thereof. In the content 101, position information and time information are associated with each other. As an example of the type of the content 101, there may be guidance and advertisement regarding events such as events and events held at a specific time in a store or facility at a location specified by position information. The position information may represent a point that is a combination of latitude and longitude, or may represent an area surrounded by a plurality of points. Further, the position information may represent a point or an area by a zip code or an address instead of the latitude and longitude. The time information may express a certain temporary point by one time, or may express a period by a combination of a start time and an end time.

  The position information and time information described in the content 101 may be written as a part of the content 101 in a header portion of the content or in a file other than the content 101.

  The position information and time information given to the content 101 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating the description of the content 101. In FIG. 3, HTML is used as an example of the content 101, but other formats may be used. For convenience of explanation, the left end of each line in FIG.

  FIG. 3 shows an example of HTML content starting from line 01 and ending at line 11. In FIG. 3, <head> on line 02 to </ head> on line 06 is the header part, and <body> on line 07 to </ body> on line 10 is the content body.

  In this example, position information (pos :) is described in line 04, and latitude (Lat: N35.20.45.1) and longitude (Lon: E135.15.27.6) are described as details of the position information. ing.

  In addition, time information (time :) is described in line 05, and the start time (Begin: 2005013010000, 14:00 on March 1, 2005) and the end time (End: 2005013010000, March 1, 2005) are described as details of the time information. 16:00) is described.

  Thus, part of the content 101 describes position information and time information.

  Note that the position information and time information may be described in a separate file from the content 101. FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a description example in which the position information and the time information are files different from the content. In FIG. 4, XML is used as an example of the description method, but other description methods may be used. In FIG. 4, as with FIG. 3, the left end of each row is given a row number for convenience of explanation.

  FIG. 4 is an example of position information and time information starting from line 01 and ending at line 12. In FIG. 4, information specifying content corresponding to line 03 is described. In this example, concert. This indicates position information and time information related to the content specified by html.

  Further, position information is described from line 04 to line 07. Specifically, latitude is described in <Latitude> on line 05, and longitude is described in <Longitude> on line 06.

  In addition, time information is described in lines 08 to 11. Specifically, the start time is described in <BeginTime> on line 09, and the end time is described in <EndTime> on line 10.

  Here, it returns to description of the terminal device 202 using FIG.

  The position information acquisition unit 102 acquires position information described in the content 101 from the accumulated content 101. The time information acquisition unit 103 acquires time information described in the content 101 from the accumulated content 101.

  The current position acquisition unit 104 acquires current position information where the terminal device 202 is present. The current position acquisition unit 104 acquires current position information by using a GPS (Global Positioning System) that calculates position information from radio waves of a dedicated satellite, or from a connected mobile phone base station to a base station. A method for acquiring the ID or position information of the device is conceivable.

  The current time acquisition unit 105 acquires current time information.

  The required time calculation unit 106 is described in the content 101 from the current position using the current position of the terminal device 202 acquired by the current position acquisition unit 104 and the position information of the content 101 acquired by the position information acquisition unit 102. The travel time required to move to the position indicated by the position information is calculated. For example, the following method can be considered as a method for calculating the required travel time of the required time calculation unit 106.

  1) Calculate the travel time by calculating a straight line distance and dividing by a moving speed (for example, 30 kilometers per hour) in a moving means (for example, an automobile) assumed in advance.

  2) Map information is held in advance, and the travel distance is calculated by calculating the travel route. The required movement distance is calculated by dividing the obtained movement distance by the movement speed of the movement means designated in advance.

  3) Route map information of trains and buses is stored in advance, and a travel route is calculated using the route map information. The travel time is calculated in consideration of the distance of each travel section on the travel route, the transport means to be used, the transit time of the transport means, the travel time on foot, and the like. Further, when calculating the required travel time, it may be calculated by taking the operation time from the operation time table.

  The display time calculation unit 107 calculates the remaining time from the current time acquired by the current time acquisition unit 105 to the time information of the content acquired by the time information acquisition unit 103.

  The display control unit 108 compares the required travel time with the remaining time calculated by the display time calculation unit 107, and determines that the corresponding content is displayed on the display unit 109 when the required travel time is approximately equal to the remaining time. . That is, the display control unit 108 determines whether the content 101 should be displayed by determining whether the terminal device 202 can arrive before the time when the content 101 becomes valid when the content 101 is displayed at the current time. Judging.

  The display unit 109 displays the content that the display control unit 108 has decided to display. In addition to displaying content, the display unit 109 also provides voice guidance and music presentation.

  As described above, the terminal device 202 is configured.

  Next, content display processing of the terminal device 202 will be described using the flowchart of FIG.

  First, terminal apparatus 202 stores content 101 stored in storage apparatus 203 in content storage section 110 (ST501). Next, the location information acquisition unit 102 of the terminal device 202 acquires location information from the accumulated content 101, and the time information acquisition unit 103 acquires time information from the content 101 (ST502).

  Further, when the content 101 is updated, for example, when the new content 101 is stored in the content storage unit 110, the terminal device 202 acquires the position information and time information again.

  Next, the terminal device 202 repeatedly performs the following processing. The timing at which the terminal device 202 performs the following processing may be a certain time interval, after the terminal device 202 has moved a certain distance, or the like.

  First, current position income section 104 acquires current position information of terminal apparatus 202, and current time acquisition section 105 acquires current time information (ST503).

  Next, the required time calculation unit 106 calculates the distance between the current position information acquired by the current position acquisition unit 104 and the position information of the content 101 acquired by the position information acquisition unit 102. Then, the required time calculation unit 106 uses the calculated distance to calculate the required time required to move from the current position to the content position using the assumed transportation means (ST504).

  Next, display time calculation section 107 calculates the remaining time from the current time acquired by current time acquisition section 105 to the time information of the content acquired by time information acquisition section 103 (ST505).

  Next, the display control unit 108 compares the required travel time with the remaining time calculated by the display time calculation unit 107 (ST506), and displays content corresponding to the case where the required travel time is approximately equal to the remaining time on the display unit 109. Displayed (ST507). That is, the display control unit 108 determines whether the content 101 should be displayed by determining whether the terminal device 202 can arrive before the time when the content 101 becomes valid when the content 101 is displayed at the current time. Judging.

  The following formula can be used to determine whether or not to display by comparing the time required to move from the current position to the position of the content and the remaining time from the current time to the time information specified for the content. .

A = (remaining time)-(travel time)
(1) δ ₂ <A ... there is a margin in the remaining time (you do not have to display it yet)
(2) δ ₁ ≦ A ≦ δ ₂ ... A predetermined time when moving (display timing)
(3) A <δ ₁ ... The remaining time is insufficient for the travel time (cannot be displayed)
Here, δ ₁ <δ _{2 is} assumed.

For example, the time required for movement from the current position to the position of the corresponding content is 60 minutes, and δ ₁ = 0 and δ ₂ = 10 minutes. If the remaining time from the current time to the time information specified for the corresponding content is 90 minutes, A = 30 minutes, and there is room for travel time, so it is not necessary to display as (1). If the remaining time is 30 minutes, A = −30 minutes, and the case (3) cannot be made even if the user moves, so the display of the content is not effective for the user. If the remaining time is 65 minutes, A = 5 minutes, and since the content specified time is reached 5 minutes after moving over 60 minutes, in the case of (2), the display timing of the content is now It is possible to determine that it is appropriate.

  Then, terminal device 202 repeats ST503 and subsequent steps again at the implementation timing such as after a certain time interval has passed as described above or after a certain distance of movement.

  Next, in ST507, a method for displaying content on display unit 109 by terminal apparatus 202 will be described with reference to FIG. The procedure that the display control unit 108 of the terminal device 202 displays on the display unit 109 is in the following order.

  First, when the terminal device 202 is not referred to by the user, the display control unit 108 uses the display unit 109 to indicate that there is the content 101 to be displayed. Notify the user by means such as

  Next, the display control unit 108 displays a list of contents 101 to be displayed, as indicated at 601. Further, as indicated by reference numeral 605, the display control unit 108 displays the required travel time calculated together with the list of contents 101. At this time, the display control unit 108 displays the contents 101 to be displayed side by side in ascending order of travel time.

  Next, when the content 101 is selected on the terminal device 202 (in the figure, 1 is input), the display control unit 108 displays the detailed information of the selected content as indicated by 602. . Further, as indicated by reference numeral 602, the display control unit 108 further displays a movement button ([Details] in the figure) to a screen for displaying a movement method such as a map or a train route map from the detailed information of the content 101.

  When there is only one content 101 to be displayed at the first stage, the display control unit 108 displays only the details of the content 101 indicated by 602 without displaying the list of the content 101.

  Further, when the terminal device 202 is referred to by the user for another use, the content is displayed in the following order.

  For example, when the user is referring to the e-mail as indicated by 603, the display control unit 108 interrupts and displays the content 101 on a part of the screen as indicated by 606. Next, when the user scrolls and displays the portion of the content 101 that has been interrupted and displayed, the display control unit 108 scrolls the content 101 as indicated by 607 in the diagram 604. As a result, the user can grasp the entire contents of the content 101.

  Further, when the user inputs “#” in order to know the details of the content 101 displayed by interruption, the display control unit 108 displays the detailed information of the content 101 as indicated by 602.

  Next, a content display procedure when the terminal device 202 displays moving image content will be described with reference to FIG.

  When the moving image content is displayed as indicated by 701, the display control unit 108 of the terminal device 202 interrupts the reproduction of the moving image content once as indicated by 702, and displays detailed information on the content to be displayed like a CM. After interrupting and displaying on the entire screen for a fixed time, the reproduction of the moving image content is resumed as indicated by 703.

  Note that when the moving image content is displayed as indicated by reference numeral 701, the terminal device 202 may perform interrupt display using a part of the screen as in the case indicated by reference numeral 603 in FIG.

  Thus, the terminal device 202 displays the content 101 related to the position and time at a timing at which the content 101 can arrive at the position related to the related time.

  The terminal device 202 may assume a plurality of moving means. For example, in ST504, when the required time calculation unit 106 calculates the distance between the current position and the position information of the content, the travel route by walking, train, bicycle, automobile, ship, or aircraft is calculated. Further, the required travel time for each may be calculated from an assumed average moving speed or a timetable.

  Further, in this case, the required time calculation unit 106 may calculate by distinguishing between a general road and a toll road in the case of an automobile, or by distinguishing between a normal toll and a case using a toll express in the case of a train. Good. A display example in this case is shown in FIG.

  As indicated by reference numeral 802 on the screen 801, the display control unit 108 displays that it is not in time for normal movement or that it is not in time if there is no urgency (unless an express train is used).

  As described above, when the details of the content 101 are displayed, it is possible not only to display that there is an alternative moving unit, but also to display that it is in time or not in time according to the moving unit. As a result, it is possible for the user to recognize what kind of moving means is available and what kind of moving means is used in time. In addition, the moving means used by the user can be easily selected by changing the way of displaying and presenting characters, colors, voices, etc., in the moving means not in time.

  As described above, according to the first embodiment, the content 101 that is valid at a specific time is moved during the distance even if the terminal device 202 is away from the geographical location associated with the content 101. By expecting the required time, it is possible to display the terminal device 202 at a timing at which the terminal device 202 can arrive at the geographical position associated with the content before the time when the content 101 becomes valid. That is, the user can move to the position described in the content 101 over the travel time after referring to the display of the content 101, and experience an event or the like that is performed at the time described in the content 101. That is, the effect of the content 101 can be provided to the user to the maximum extent.

  The display time calculation unit 107 calculates the time to display the content 101 from the time information described in the content 101 and the required travel time calculated by the required time calculation unit 106, and the display control unit 108 The present time may be determined by comparing the current time acquired by the current time acquisition unit 105 with the display time of the content calculated by the display time calculation unit 107 to display the content. Specifically, the display time calculation unit 107 calculates the time at which the movement can be completed from the required movement time to the time information described in the content 101 as the time at which the content 101 should be displayed. That is, the required time calculation unit 106 calculates a time obtained by subtracting the required movement time from the time information described in the content 101 as a time at which the content 101 should be displayed.

  For example, if the content is information about an event at 14:00 and the travel time to the place where the event is held is 30 minutes, if the content is not displayed to the user at 13:30 at the latest, You can see that even if you move, it will not be in time for the event. Therefore, the display time calculation unit 107 calculates 13:30 as the time to be displayed. Then, the display control unit 108 does not need to display if the current time is 13:00, but if the current time is 13:20, the display control unit 108 determines that the content is displayed with an allowance for movement.

  As an application example of the terminal device 202, a schedule management terminal can be considered. By specifying the time and location for work meetings, hobby events, and meeting, even if the user forgets the event to be scheduled and is in a remote location, the user is notified of the event notice It becomes possible. Also, not only the user can input the schedule directly, but also the contents that are of interest to the user among the contents received by broadcasting and communication are input as the schedule as it is, so that unknown events of interest to the user can be entered. It is possible to notify the existence at a good timing. The input of the received content to the schedule is preferably performed automatically when the user's profile information matches the content attribute information.

(Embodiment 2)
A terminal apparatus according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the second embodiment, the display control according to the first embodiment is performed after the content is received and the received content is selected.

  Next, the configuration of the terminal apparatus according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 9 is a configuration diagram of a terminal device according to the second embodiment. 9, the same components as those in FIG. 1 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof is omitted.

  The terminal device 900 according to the second embodiment is provided with a receiving unit 901 that receives the content 101 transmitted by broadcasting or communication. The receiving unit 901 stores the received content 101 in the storage unit 902.

  In addition, the terminal device 900 is provided with a profile information management unit 903 that accumulates information such as age, age, sex, occupation, and hobby as profile information of the user of the terminal device. The display history management unit 905 manages the display history of the content 101 displayed by the display control unit 108.

  In addition, the terminal device 900 is provided with a content selection unit 904 that selects the content 101 to be subjected to display selection processing from the content 101 stored in the storage unit 902. The content selection unit 904 uses the current position information acquired by the current position acquisition unit 104 to select the content 101 associated with a position within a certain distance from the current position from the content stored in the storage unit 902. For example, the content selection unit 904 displays the content 101 associated with the distance within 30 km from the current position as a display selection processing target, and displays the content 101 in a range that can be moved in about one hour in terms of time. A selection process can be performed.

  The content selection unit 904 selects only the content 101 that matches the user's profile information managed by the profile information management unit 903 as a display selection target. Thereby, for example, the information can be narrowed down by describing the attribute information about the content in the content 101 in the same manner as the position and time information of FIG. 3 and FIG. For example, if the user is interested in sports, even if the content 101 is related to a distant location, the display confirmation is limited to content such as sports events or sports stores in the attribute information. Can do.

  In addition, the content selection unit 904 uses the current time to omit the content 101 associated with time information prior to the current position and the content 101 associated with a distant future. As a result, it is possible to omit content 101 that is no longer valid or content 101 that is valid but not used for a while.

  Further, the content selection unit 904 selects the content 101 to be displayed based on the display history of the content 101 managed by the display history management unit 905. Thereby, it is possible to avoid the same content 101 from being repeatedly displayed.

  As a first example, the display history management unit 905 may manage the display time of content. The content selection unit 904 prevents the content from being repeatedly displayed by excluding content whose display time is within a predetermined time, for example, content displayed one minute before, from selection targets.

  As a second example, the display history management unit 905 may manage the number of times content is displayed. The content selection unit 904 prevents content from being repeatedly displayed by excluding content that has been displayed more than a predetermined number of times, such as content that has been displayed more than 5 times, from the selection target.

  As a third example, the display history management unit 905 may manage the display position of content. The content selection unit 904 calculates the distance between the current position acquired by the current position acquisition unit 104 and the display position, and the content within a certain distance, for example, the content at the position where only 100 m has moved since the previous display is displayed. By excluding it from the selection target, the repeated display of content is prevented.

  As described above, the content selection unit 904 narrows down and outputs the content 101 to be displayed and selected. Note that the condition for the content selection unit 904 to narrow down the content 101 may not be all of the current position information, current time information, profile information, and display history, but may be any one or a combination thereof.

  As described above, according to the second embodiment, when there is a large amount of received content 101, it is possible to narrow down in advance under a predetermined condition. This is suitable for a form in which a large amount of content 101 is handled using communication or the like.

  According to the present invention, even content associated with a distant place can be displayed at an appropriate timing in consideration of movement.
