JP2007226754A - Function and system for learning-assignment-adapted automatic use restriction and de-restriction - Google Patents

Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce an operational load when restricting the use of an amusement apparatus such as a cellular telephone or a game machine and enabling the use if an assignment is answered. <P>SOLUTION: Correct answers and conditions such as a deadline for answering are stored in advance in amusement apparatus on conditions selected by a person who restricts the use of the apparatus, to implement automatic use restriction, and de-restriction by an automatic determination based on an answer input by a person who wants to use a target apparatus. For the restriction and de-restriction function, questions/problems are also stored as assignments, or assignments provided through communication lines are captured. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

Description

The present invention automatically restricts the use of entertainment devices such as mobile phones, game devices, music / video viewing devices, and spaces such as private rooms / boxes, and automatically unlocks functions as a reward for completing learning tasks. It relates to the technology to be provided.

In recent years, devices with advanced entertainment functions have become widespread in the home, and in particular, young people are deprived of learning time and motivation. On the other hand, not only these devices, but also locks for building doors have a built-in computer that can store and judge a considerable amount of information, and there are examples of connecting these computers to a network. It is increasing.

In recent years, devices with advanced entertainment functions have become widespread in the home, and in particular, young people are deprived of learning time and motivation. For this reason, there are many cases where the guardian restricts the use of these devices and allows them to be used as rewards for learning and other tasks, and some guardians are users who are built into the device. There are some examples that use the authentication function (so-called terminal lock), but the operation of setting each presentation task, answer contents, answer deadline, usage restriction condition contents, and starting and releasing usage restrictions is heavy. In a situation where practical operation is difficult.

Computers built into entertainment devices such as mobile phones, game devices, music / video viewing devices, and lock devices for restricting the use of spaces such as private rooms and boxes (hereinafter referred to as “target entertainment devices”) Specific operations, numeric strings, or character strings obtained as a result of performing tasks such as given learning, etc., using functions or computer functions that are separately connected to the device, etc., restricting use based on predetermined conditions The input operation is used as a key (answer key), and the restriction is lifted so that it can be used.

When restricting or canceling the use of amusement devices, etc., in addition to the contents of the answer key, if necessary, associate each condition such as the scope of the restricted function, the timing of the restriction, the time limit for entering the answer key, etc. It memorize | stores in the said objective entertainment apparatus etc.

Furthermore, as necessary, a presentation task for which an answer key is to be obtained is stored as a question / question and displayed on the target entertainment device or the like.

Further, the presentation task and the answer are obtained from a separately provided database through a communication line and stored as necessary.

Furthermore, these functions for restricting and releasing the usage are built in the main body (including door key / box key) of the target entertainment device or the like, and there is a method of configuring as an independent device and connecting only when releasing the restriction. .

Furthermore, there is a method of integrally configuring the device as a restraining device such as a latch having a built-in function for restricting and releasing the use.

Use this function to limit the use of entertainment devices, etc. and release restrictions associated with the completion of learning tasks. You can get and set. In addition, for those who intend to use the target entertainment device or the like, the motivation for tackling the improvement of the portability and the problem is given by the integration with the entertainment function.

A large number of learning questions / questions and their answers are stored in advance as a database on the network, and a person who wants to perform restriction selects a problem to be applied from among them according to the purpose. These task groups are transmitted to a target entertainment device or the like via a communication line, and questions and problem contents are displayed. The person who intends to use the target entertainment device can cancel the restriction of the function of the target entertainment device by entering the answer key for the task, or avoid the start of the restriction. If it is not entered or the specified time limit is exceeded, the function is limited.

The database stores mathematics questions for high school students and answer keys in which the answers are converted into numeric strings or character strings as task answer groups. The task answer group is transmitted and stored in the mobile phone terminal via the network, and the problem is displayed. Restrictions are set for mobile phone terminals by parents of high school students who are mobile phone users. For example, the user can enter the answer to the displayed problem by 11:00 pm on the next day. The mobile phone terminal is allowed to be used for 24 hours on the same day, but if the correct answer key cannot be entered by the same time, the mobile phone terminal cannot be used for the next 24 hours (however, It is possible to display and enter issues for next day use). As a result, the higher the demand for using a mobile phone, the more high school students who are users will work harder on the problem.

Manufacture and sale of mobile phone terminals, game machines, music / video viewing devices that possess this function, manufacture and sale of portable devices such as portable music playback devices and restraint devices that prevent the removal of motorcycle keys, private rooms, In addition to the manufacture and sale of garage / case locks, as a publication, the presentation of task assignments and combinations of answer keys corresponding to this, the issues on the database and the answer key group on the premise of provision on the communication line The offer can be used as an industry.
