Features.

  ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the technique which raised the convenience when a user acquires disaster information is obtained.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below.

A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
FIG. 1 shows a system configuration diagram of a display device capable of detecting earthquake information.
Data transmitted by the broadcast wave 100 includes video data, audio data, EPG data, data broadcast data, and the like. These data are received by the display device 110 by the antenna 101 and are distributed by the distributor 113 through the tuner 111 and the descrambler 112. On the other hand, one-segment broadcast data is also transmitted as data from the broadcast wave 100. This data is received by the one-segment built-in tuner 116 or the one-segment USB tuner 114 connected to the USB terminal 115, and is also distributed by the distributor 113. The distributor 113 extracts necessary data from the channel selection information, and the display system data is processed through the video processing unit 117 and the data processing unit 119, synthesized by the display control unit 120, and displayed on the screen display unit 122. The The data distributed to the audio processing unit 118 is output by the audio output unit 123 through the audio control unit 121. Further, the display device 110 can obtain data from the memory 129 and the storage device 130, and these pieces of information are transmitted and received by the distributor 113 through the bus, and appropriate processing is performed. Furthermore, the display device 110 can detect vibration by the vibration sensor 127, and the information is appropriately processed by the CPU 126 through the bus. A part of the data distributed by the distributor 113 is transferred to the data analysis 128. The data analysis 128 detects the emergency breaking information of the video, and returns the data to the distributor through the CPU 126 regarding the information in an appropriate format. The Bluetooth (R) 124 acquires information from the remote controller 150 or an external network and transmits the information to the CPU 126. The remote controller 150 includes a Bluetooth 151 and a button operation processing microcomputer 152, and is used to perform an operation. The remote controller 150 has a vibration sensor 153, and information is processed by the microcomputer 152 as in the display device 110, and the data is transferred to the Bluetooth 124 of the display device 110 through the Bluetooth 151.

In the display device 110 having the above system configuration, conventionally, when vibration for a certain period of time is detected by the vibration sensor 127, emergency earthquake information is detected by the data analysis 128, or the user is notified of earthquake detection, etc. When a state where it can be considered that some kind of earthquake has been detected, the power source of the display device 110 is automatically activated to perform appropriate processing. For example, it activates the power supply and switches the channel to NHK, or selectively activates data broadcasting containing earthquake information. However, since whether or not the routine processing is really the processing desired by the user varies depending on the user to use, there is a possibility that the extra processing is arbitrarily performed. In addition, even in the case of an earthquake or the like, even if the information can be automatically acquired, if the information cannot be received from the broadcast wave, the act is wasted.

In the present embodiment, a method for avoiding two of the above-described inappropriate automatic processing at the occurrence of an earthquake and the risk that the information itself cannot be acquired will be described. A method for obtaining accurate earthquake information faster than a signal from a broadcast wave will also be described.

FIG. 2 shows processing of the first embodiment of the operation method on the display device body when the occurrence of an earthquake is detected. Even if the remote control cannot be found by this method, the display device main body can be easily operated. When the occurrence of an earthquake is detected in step S200, the display device main body checks the display state in step S201, and if it is OFF, the display state is automatically turned on in step S202, and the earthquake occurrence display 204 is displayed in step S203. To do. If it is ON from the beginning in step S201, the display in step S203 is suddenly performed. It is noted that the earthquake occurrence display 204 alerts the user to the occurrence of an earthquake and automatically shifts to the main body operation mode when there is no remote control operation for a certain period of time thereafter. Thereafter, in step S205, the display device main body waits for an instruction from the remote controller within a predetermined time. If there is an operation, the display device returns to the normal operation mode in the remote control in step S206, but if there is no operation, The process proceeds to the main body operation mode in step S207. At this time, the screen display 208 alerts the user. Further, when the transition is made, the “main body operation mode” indicating the transition is highlighted, and at the same time, the display is switched in step S209 (see FIG. 3). Thereafter, the display device main body waits for an operation from the user in step S210, and when the display power supply OFF is selected, the display is turned off in step S211 and at the same time, the main body operation mode is canceled and the next start-up is normal. Start in remote control mode. Also, if there is a remote control operation while waiting in step S210, the process shifts to the normal remote control operation mode in step S212. In this case, the display process can be continued without being turned off. If an operation is performed using the buttons on the main body, processing corresponding to the main body operation instruction is performed in step S213. In step S210, the next process is awaited. By this method, the function of the display device can be operated only by operating the main body without operating the remote controller. This has the advantage of realizing a function that cannot be executed only by conventional original operation when the remote control is lost or broken due to an earthquake or the like. Moreover, it is a very useful method for the elderly and the like who only use the remote control on a daily basis and do not know how to operate the main unit suddenly. Compared with the conventional method, the present invention not only considers the process when the remote control is lost, but also provides an escort that gives freedom to the user and leads to disaster information rather than a device-dependent process. There is an advantage.

FIG. 3 shows an example of the screen of the display device when the main body operation mode is entered in the processing of FIG. The screen of the display device 300 (corresponding to 110) is divided and an image is displayed in the upper left 301. Below that, information of a list of detected earthquake information is stacked. In the lower right 305, a display that clearly indicates that the apparatus is currently in the main body operation mode and a method for ending the main body operation mode are clearly indicated so that the user can grasp the current state. In the upper right 303 and 304, an explanation of how to use the main body operation button 306 on the right side is described. 303 designates the usage method as it is, so that anyone can understand how to use it. In 304, an operation that can be used in the main body operation mode is described although it cannot be used with a normal main body button. These buttons can be realized by, for example, pressing and holding the main body operation button 306. These functions have the advantage that, for example, disaster area information may flow through data broadcasting, but there is no inconvenience that data broadcasting cannot be started without a remote control. In this method, the display device can be set to the normal mode only on the screen, that is, the full screen while maintaining the main body operation mode. This function is effective in omitting a screen configuration that becomes redundant information when the remote control is lost but it is troublesome if the user is not familiar with the operation and does not have a full screen, or when the reason for the loss is not a disaster such as an earthquake. In FIG. 3, 304 display can be realized by long-pressing the lowest button 306. To return to the original main body operation mode display, the same operation may be performed, but in that case, there is a possibility that the operation may be forgotten.

The above is the embodiment of the operation method on the display device body when the occurrence of the earthquake is detected.
Next, FIG. 4 shows a procedure of an embodiment relating to switching of a reception method when an earthquake is detected.
When the display device body detects an earthquake in step S400, the display device body confirms the display state in step S401, and if it is OFF, the display state is automatically turned on in step S402, and in step S403. Select a channel that has already been registered for processing when an earthquake occurs. Thereafter, an earthquake occurrence display 405 is displayed in step S404. If it is in the ON state from the beginning in step S401, the processing is suddenly performed from step S403. The earthquake occurrence display 405 alerts the user that an earthquake has occurred and calls attention. At this time, the fact that the channel has been changed to the registered channel in step S403 is also displayed. Thereafter, the display device main body divides the operation according to the detection source that detected the earthquake in step S406. If it is derived from a broadcast such as a bulletin or a data broadcast, the registered channel is displayed as it is in step S407. In this case, since the broadcast has already been received, the subsequent operation is unnecessary. If the detection source is derived from the vibration sensor, the registered channel is displayed as it is in step S409 as long as the value can be determined by checking the antenna level in step S408, but the value does not satisfy the standard. In step S410, all channels are scanned, and it is determined whether reception by the tuner built in the display device is possible. If there is a receivable channel, a specific channel is displayed in the order of priority in the display device in step S411. At that time, a notice that the priority channel could not be displayed on the display 412 is urged. If there is no receivable channel even after scanning, and the display device body does not have other tuners such as 114 and 116 in FIG. This will be described in detail with reference to FIG. If there is no channel that can be received by scanning and there is a tuner 114 or 116 in FIG. 1, scanning is performed using the corresponding 114 or 116 in step S413. If reception is still impossible at this time, a display 415 is output in step S414 to note to the user that reception is impossible. If reception is possible, in step S416, the same simulcast as the original registered channel is selected and displayed, and the user is warned that the one-segment mode is indicated by the display at 417. This method has an advantage that disaster information can be acquired even when an outdoor antenna is broken in the event of an earthquake.

A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3 and FIG. Description of the parts common to the first embodiment is omitted.
FIG. 5 shows a procedure of an embodiment different from the first embodiment regarding the switching of the reception method when an earthquake is detected.
In this method, as described in step S500, when the one-segment tuners 114 and 116 in FIG. 1 are not attached to the display device main body in FIG. 4, or are attached, the display device main body is installed in the home. It is effective when it is not always in an optimum environment for receiving one-segment broadcasting, such as being in the center. First, in step S501, another one-seg tuner holding device is searched under the above situation. As already described, when the display device main body is installed in a place unsuitable for receiving one-segment broadcasting, the environment is prepared by placing the one-segment tuner holding device in a place with good reception sensitivity on the window side of the house. The one-seg tuner holding device that has received the search information in step S503 transmits the result of the holding information to the display device main body in step S504. If the display device main unit finds a device to be held by the tuner in step S504, it requests the holding device to transmit data from the tuner in step S505. If not found, the same display as 415 in FIG. The one-segment tuner holding device receives the request in step S506, and starts data transmission in step S507. Data transmission / reception is performed by Bluetooth. The display device main body receives the data in step S508, displays a specific channel in the same manner as usual in step S509, and displays 510. This embodiment can solve the problem that the video on the terminal is too small to be viewed by a plurality of people. Since everyone is uneasy at the time of the earthquake, it is safer for only certain people to know the information and share the same information on a large screen rather than listening to it again. It is impossible to watch 1Seg broadcasting on a large screen, but it is also possible to share information by expanding only subtitles, detected breaking information, and data broadcasting. There is also a great advantage in that a series of processing can be automatically performed on behalf of the user.

A third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3 and FIG. Description of parts common to the first and second embodiments is omitted.
Next, a detection method at the time of occurrence of an earthquake in order to make more effective use of the results after the earthquake detection of the second embodiment will be described. FIG. 6 shows a processing procedure of the system for detecting an earthquake. A vibration sensor is incorporated in each of the remote controllers having a display device body and wireless communication processing. When the display device main body detects vibration for a time longer than a predetermined time by its own vibration sensor in step S600, the display device body receives the information and obtains vibration information from the remote controller. The remote control receives the request at step S601 and immediately returns its own result at step S602. The display device main body receives the result in step S603, and if only the main body is detected, displays a warning 605 in step S604. The warning display 605 alerts that a strong shaking is detected only in the main body because the possibility of an earthquake cannot be denied. As a result, it is possible to prompt the user to pay a certain amount of attention even when an error is detected on the remote control side. If both are detected, a warning display 607 is displayed in step S606, and then an instruction is waited for in step S608. If a certain period of time has elapsed or the user has requested an earthquake mode, a channel such as NHK is automatically generated in step S609. Or registered processing such as in the above-described embodiment is performed. If a notification that the earthquake mode is not required is received from the user, the process proceeds to the normal mode in step S610. Since the present invention can easily vibrate when a display device such as a flat-screen television hits these days, it can be relieved to a processing mode at the time of an earthquake disaster for a more reliable detection method than a state of low reliability with one sensor information. Can be migrated.

A fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3 and FIG. Descriptions of parts common to the first to third embodiments are omitted.
FIG. 7 describes another method of detection processing when vibration is detected by both the display device and the remote controller. A vibration sensor is incorporated in each of the remote controllers having a display device body and wireless communication processing. The remote controller is a composite remote controller that can operate all electronic devices in the house. Appropriate processing such as stopping the output of the IH heater and stopping the HDD processing of the PC is incorporated in the remote control in the event of a disaster. When vibration is detected on the remote control side in step S700, information is transmitted to the display device body. The display device main body receives the result from the remote control in step S701, and confirms the vibration detection result of the main body in step S702. The result is notified to the remote controller in step S703. The remote controller that has received the result in step S704 analyzes the result and, if both detect an earthquake, determines that the earthquake is an earthquake and outputs the registered emergency code to each electronic device in step S708. In step S709, the remote control transmits the result to the display device. On the other hand, after the notification to the remote controller, the display device itself determines the result itself, and if it is determined that an earthquake has occurred in step S706, the registered automatic processing similar to that in FIG. 6 is performed in step S707. At the same time, the result display processing transmitted in step S709 from the remote control side in step S710 is performed in the form of 711. According to the present invention, when the remote control supervises the operation of electronic devices in the house, there is an advantage that automatic safety processing can be executed by a reliable method with few false detections.
