[Prior art]
As is well known, gaming devices are known in which voice information is input to have a conversation with a character pet or to operate a pet. For example, there are those in which a player speaks to a microphone for voice recognition and trains a pet, and others learn information including voice received from an owner and train a robot.
Thus, it is excellent in that a more realistic feeling can be experienced by manipulating the character or the like by voice input as compared to moving the character by a key or the like.
In this type of gaming device, it is assumed that the information input by the player by voice is accurately read, and the voice recognition processing unit provided therein increases the reading accuracy by calibration or the like. It has become.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the above conventional voice recognition game apparatus, when a player or owner of a robot (hereinafter referred to as “player”) gives an instruction to a character or robot (hereinafter referred to as “character”), the character can surely recognize this. Since it is a premise, it is necessary to improve the accuracy of the speech recognition processing unit for speech recognition.
However, since the recognition rate is limited due to the nature of voice recognition, there is a problem that the character may not respond appropriately to the player's command.
However, since it is the same in the case of an actual pet that the pet does not listen to the owner, the game can be made more realistic if this point is used effectively.
Therefore, there is a demand for a voice recognition game apparatus that can make use of the presence of the recognition rate by such voice input and can play a game with a more realistic feeling.

[0012]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. This voice recognition game apparatus uses voice recognition as a game means, and is a video game for training characters. This is a speech recognition game in which words spoken by the player are displayed as they are while manipulating the breeding characters with words, and misrecognized words also have a specific meaning.
FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram of a housing 1 for implementing a voice recognition game apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. The housing 1 is provided with a display screen 2, a controller unit (consisting of levers and buttons) 3, an audio output unit 4, an audio input unit 5, and a personal data input unit 6.
The voice input unit 5 is for inputting the voice of the player, and constitutes the game input means of this embodiment together with the controller unit 3. The personal data input unit 6 is provided for reading and writing the data recording card 7.
[0013]
As shown in FIG. 2, the voice input input from the voice input unit 5 is sent to the internal processing unit 9 via the voice information processing unit 8, and the controller input input from the controller unit 3 is sent to the internal processing unit 9. Sent to. The personal data input input from the personal data input unit 6 by the data recording card 7 is also sent to the internal processing unit 9. Based on each information sent to the internal processing unit 9 in this way, a result display is output to the display screen 2 and an audio output is output from the audio output unit 4 to the player. The voice recognition game is stored in a CD-ROM as a computer-readable recording medium and can be used for home use or business use. It can also be used as a game that is mounted on a mobile phone and played while raising characters of the mobile phone. For business use, information may be exchanged by connecting from the center using a network. Of course, it is also possible to connect two units and compete with each other by communication. Further, it can be used for a toy such as a robot having no display screen 2.
[0014]
Next, the overall flow of the game by the voice recognition game device according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described. Note that the description will be given with reference to the drawings used for explaining the flow of a specific game described later.
The goal of the game is for the player to become the owner and train the pet to learn words and then participate in the competition and aim for the first place. Each competition has words (commands) that must be remembered to participate. That is, the competition which can participate can be changed by selecting the words that the player can learn from the pet.
The general game flow is as follows.
(1) Obtain / call pets (from the second time on)
(2) Training
(3) Perform the competition
[0015]
Each item will be described below.
(1) Obtain / call pets (from the second time on)
Players get their own pets. Select a favorite pet from several types (see FIG. 4), give the pet a name, and at the same time enter the name of the owner (see FIG. 5). Pets have basic parameter values such as “power”, “smart”, and “appearance”, and each pet has its originality. In the second and subsequent play, you can call your pet and continue to play, and forget about the words if you are not taking care too much.
[0016]
(2) Training
・ Select a command
“Command” indicates a word that the player makes the pet learn. One command corresponds to one operation. For example, the word “hashire” corresponds to “running motion”. To participate in a competition, it is necessary to learn the commands necessary for that competition. When a command is selected, what kind of competition can be entered when the command is memorized is displayed on the display screen, so that the player can select the command while watching it.
[0017]
・ Remember the owner's words
If you don't let the pet remember the owner's words, you won't know when the pet should move. Therefore, the player who is the owner links words and actions here. This allows the pet to move with the player's words. Pets may learn words by mistake, especially at the beginning, but the words they understand are displayed on the display screen as a “pet heart window”, which can be easily confirmed by the player. it can. In order to remember the words, for example, the words can be repeatedly input within a certain number of times or within the time limit until the pet understands the intention (see FIG. 6).
Here, the degree of understanding (to be described later) of a pet when learning this word greatly affects the parameters (to be described later) of the pet later.
[0018]
・ Remember the movement
Reminding an action is a training for making the action assigned to the command better (for example, at just timing) (see FIG. 7). This result is reflected in the execution level (described later). First, a screen showing a certain situation with a pet (depending on the command) appears, and the timing marker starts to move. The player inputs by voice aiming at just timing. Since the degree of coincidence between the player's input and the timing marker is the execution level (execution timing, speed, height, etc. of the command), it affects the advantage / disadvantage of the competition using the command.
For example, if the command is “Hashire”, the timing marker is meat, and the just timing is the moment when the meat is positioned at the bottom, the meat supported by the stick moves up and down, The timing at which the pet starts to run when positioned below can be used as the just timing, or the timing at which the pet bites when the meat is positioned at the bottom can be set as the just timing.
[0019]
(3) Perform the competition
Commands required to participate in the competition are preset. The player uses the command to operate the pet and clear the theme (see FIGS. 8 and 9). At this time, parameters obtained from the pet understanding rate and the execution level affect the actual movement of the pet. Rival pets will participate in the game as well, so the goal is to win rewards and win reward items. The reward item affects the basic parameter value (described later) such as “Chikaru” UP if it is meat.
[0020]
There is a ranking in the competition (see FIG. 11), and it can be a goal to aim for the first place of all participating pets including the past by challenging many times. If it falls within a certain rank, records such as owners and pet names are registered in the competitor list, and there is a possibility that other pets will be selected as competitors when they are challenging the competition. The competitor is selected from the competitor list according to the level of the pet that has challenged, and the acquisition status of commands necessary for the competition and basic parameter values are used as the judgment material.
For example, the list is displayed as “2000/4/20, 15:24 Participating in a jump box game and third place”.
[0021]
・ Following pets
Here, the player communicates with his / her pet according to the result of the competition (see FIG. 12). For example, praise if an excellent grade is given.
The communication result here is reflected in the basic parameter value and reliability of the pet. For example, if praised, the confidence level of a pet owner increases.
[0022]
Next, specific game contents will be described.
FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the flow of the game.
This game is performed in the procedure of obtaining a pet in step S01, naming the pet in step S02, training the pet in step S03, participating in the competition in step S04, and going to the award ceremony in step S05. . Here, after the commendation ceremony is given in step S05, it is possible to return to step S03 to perform training again and to participate in the competition again in step S04.
[0023]
"Get a pet"
When the pet is obtained, as shown in FIG. 4, various pets are displayed on the display screen together with “normal”, “hard”, and “professional”. Cats, dogs, horses, chickens, rabbits for normal pets, penguins, snakes, crocodiles, sea lions, hippos for hard pets, robots, pegasus, dragons, aliens, etc. for professional pets Can do. Each pet can select a favorite pet of the player by operating the controller unit 3.
[0024]
Here, what the player arbitrarily determines as individual pet information includes the name of the owner and the name of the pet. In addition, what is determined at the time of pet selection includes age, sex (male (♂), female (♀), other (?)), And the personality of the pet (such as decoy, naughtiness, and violence). In addition, what changes during the game includes the “understanding rate”, “basic parameter value”, “reliability”, “execution level”, and “state” of the pet.
[0025]
The “basic parameter value” indicates smartness, appearance, and the like. “Reliability” indicates the degree of trust between the pet and the owner. If the degree of trust is high, the pet faithfully executes what the owner said, and if the degree of trust is low, the pet tells the owner. It understands, but does not execute or operates differently from the instruction.
The “execution level” mainly indicates instruction execution timing, and is a level such as speed and height. For example, when the command is “Hashire”, the operation is “Run”, and the execution level at that time is indicated as 50/100 (50%). If the level is high, it will start as soon as it is ordered, and if the level is low, it will delay starting to run.
“Status” indicates the quality of the pet's health. The “understanding rate” of the pet is obtained by multiplying the voice recognition rate of the voice recognition processing unit (voice recognition software) 8 by the pet characteristic data (coefficient). Here, the characteristic data is a predetermined coefficient obtained from the age, sex, personality, basic parameter value, reliability, and state of the pet. Here, the speech recognition rate is secured to a certain level by performing calibration to some extent.
[0026]
"Name your pet"
When naming a pet, the player inputs his / her favorite name to the voice input unit 5 of the housing 1 by voice. Compared with the case where the alphabet is selected and input, it is possible to input easily. Moreover, since the naming method is the same as that for an actual pet, it is realistic. As shown in FIG. 5, for example, when a pet is a dog and named “Gonta”, voice input is performed until “Gotta” is displayed in the window of Pet's heart. For example, recognized words are displayed as they are, such as>Oh,>Konta,> Konta. When the word “GOTTA” is recognized in the window of the heart of the pet, select “GOTATA” with the lever of the controller unit 3 and press the button. Then, the display screen 2 displays that the recognized pet is “Gonta”, which is a male dog, and displays the reliability and basic parameter values. For example, “Shinrai 24%, Chikara ☆☆, Skill ☆” is displayed.
[0027]
At this time, the pet's heart window displays an indication of the decision, for example, decision! A message stating that the name of the pet has been determined to be “Gonta” is displayed. For example, “My name is Gonta!” Is displayed. At this time, the name of the owner player is also input. This input is also made by voice.
[0028]
"Train your pet"
When training is performed, a command to be memorized by the player previously selected from the command list is input to the voice input unit 5 by voice. As shown in FIG. 6, for example, when a command “hashire” is remembered, the display screen 2 displays that the pet is a dog “gonta” and the command to be remembered is “hashire”. ", For example,"Let's touch the screen "is displayed. Here, the characters voiced by the player are sequentially displayed in the pet's heart window. For example>,> Maybe? ＞ ,> Maybe? ,> Fall? The recognized words are displayed as they are.
[0029]
There are three training opportunities, for example, and five voice input opportunities are given to one training. As a result of five voice inputs, if there is a correct answer only once as described above, the player selects the correct answer. Therefore, since the correct answer is 1 out of 5 times, the understanding rate is 20%. Here, when there is no correct answer, for example, the lowest understanding rate can be 10%. This understanding rate is displayed on the display screen 2.
When one training is completed, the second training is performed, and the player performs voice input again. At this time, the player can increase the comprehension rate by performing voice input so that the pet can easily recognize while referring to the result of the first training.
[0030]
The number of voice inputs in one training is not limited to 5 and may be 10 times. In addition, the understanding rate is determined based on how many times the voice input can be recognized, but it may be determined how many times it was recognized. For example, the recognition rate may be 100% when recognized for the first time, 50% for the second time, 33% for the third time, 25% for the fourth time, and 100 / n% for the nth time.
Here, this understanding rate is originally determined as the speech recognition rate by the performance of the speech recognition processing unit 8 when the player speaks a word, but the pet type, the command type, the pet type This understanding rate is corrected by characteristic data determined by basic parameter values and the like. In addition to this, the voice recognition rate can be corrected by taking into account the age, personality, state, and reliability of the pet to obtain the pet's understanding rate.
[0031]
Specifically, the characteristic data (pet type, command type, pet basic parameters, age, personality, state, reliability determined by the pet) of the pet is multiplied by the voice recognition rate to correct it. In this way, the understanding rate is obtained and it is made closer to reality.
In other words, the voice recognition rate described above is not conventionally used as an element for establishing a game, but in such a breeding game, the voice recognition rate is used as an understanding rate that is a factor that determines the overall ability of the pet. This makes it possible to approximate the ability of an actual pet to understand what the owner says, making the game more realistic and increasing the degree of completion as a breeding game.
[0032]
Next, let the pet remember the action using the commands that the pet learned. As shown in FIG. 7, for example, when an operation corresponding to a command “hashire” is remembered, the display screen 2 displays that the pet is a dog “Gonta” and the player inputs a voice. Command is displayed. In addition, the road on which Gonta runs and a timing marker (here, meat) are displayed, and the timing marker starts to move up and down. The player inputs with the aim of just timing. Here, Gonta, which starts running with the voice input of “hashire” of the player, reaches the level 100% if the timing marker reaches this at the lowest position.
[0033]
Thus, the degree of coincidence between the player's input and the timing marker at the position where the timing marker has come down is indicated as an execution level (for example, a time lag from the coincidence). Therefore, in this screen, whether or not the word “hashire” is recognized becomes a problem, and since the timing of issuing the word is a problem, Gonta will start running with words other than “hashire”. Since the level is a parameter of the command, it affects the advantage / disadvantage of the competition using the command. In this display screen 2, the execution level of the command “Hashire” is 50%.
In other words, the pet's “understanding rate” described above indicates whether or not to run, and “execution level” refers to how to enter the run at just timing, whether to run linearly, or how fast to run. It shows technical things like how to jump high.
Then, a parameter that is the overall ability of the pet is determined based on the execution level and the understanding rate.
[0034]
“Participate in the competition”
Prior to participating in the competition, the competitions that can be entered in accordance with the commands that are remembered are determined. For example, if the memorized command is “Hashire”, “Migi”, “Hidari”, “Jump”, “Tomare”, the games that can be selected are “Kakekko”, “Flying catch”, “Maze” . If you remember many commands, you can participate in many competitions. Also, remembering the command is advantageous when playing a game.
[0035]
As shown in FIG. 8, a command name is displayed on the competition display screen 2 in addition to the competition name “short distance run”. The command names that can be used in this competition are displayed. The entered command is displayed at the top of the display screen 2. The runway assigned to each pet is displayed on the entire screen, and pets other than “Gonta” participate in the competition as competitors. When two casings 1 are connected, the opponent's pet is also displayed. “Gonta” runs with the words entered by the player aiming for the goal, but if the player makes an input mistake, the words will become an obstacle on the runway, obstructing the pet, reducing the speed of the pet, etc. Also has a game character. For pets other than Gonta, each goal is aimed at a goal in response to a command based on a preset program. The remaining time is displayed on the display screen 2 as, for example, “23 seconds remaining”. Then, when the goal approaches, the vicinity of the goal is displayed as shown in FIG. 9, and the competition ends.
[0036]
Here, games other than the battle game are also prepared.
The competition in FIG. 10 shows a “flying catch”. In this competition, unlike the sprint run of FIG. 9, there is no opponent. Two commands are required to run this competition. A game is played using these two commands. The player uses the commands “jump” and “hashire” to cause Gonta to catch the thrown disc. If caught well, mom's satisfaction will increase. Clear when the satisfaction level exceeds a certain level.
[0037]
“We are going to the award ceremony”
When the competition is successfully cleared, the competition result and pet name are displayed together with the clear text as shown in FIG. When Gonta becomes 1st, for example, “Short distance 1st class Gonta” and “Clear” are displayed. The display screen 2 also displays the podium and rewards. Reward increases the basic parameter values of pets. Thereafter, the display screen 2 changes to the screen shown in FIG. For example, when Gonta is 1 or the like, the display screen 2 displays that the pet is the dog “Gonta” and displays the reliability and basic parameter values. For example, “Shinrai 31%, Chikara ☆☆☆, Kashikoshi ☆” is displayed.
[0038]
At this time, if a word such as “well done” or “congratulations” is applied from the voice input unit 5, this is displayed in the window of the heart of the pet, thereby increasing the reliability of Gonta and the player. The reason why “Shinrai” increased to 31% and “Chikara” increased to ☆☆☆ is because each value increased as a result of giving rewards and words. Here, with respect to the words that the player puts on the pet, a word of negligence is prepared in advance as a dictionary, and when this word is input, the corresponding word is selected.
If the game is won and the game is cleared in this way, the game can be continued after the award ceremony, so that the user can move to the training screen shown in FIG. 6 and learn a new command and participate in the game.
On the other hand, if the game is lost, the game is over, and it is selected whether or not to continue on the next screen.
[0039]
In the continuation, the continuation screen is displayed immediately after the game is over, and after inserting coins, the game can be played from the training screen with the same pet.
Alternatively, the data recording card 7 can be issued after the game is over.
The data recording card 7 stores the game records so far as shown in FIG. As a result, the next game can be played with the same pet. By inserting the data recording card 7 into the personal data input unit 6 of the housing 1, a game can be played from the training screen next time. This increases convenience.
[0040]
The recorded contents of the data recording card 7 issued after the first game over include “information that does not change” and “information that changes”.
The “information that does not change” is recorded when the card is issued, and includes the name of the player who is the owner, the name of the pet, and the type of pet (type, gender, personality, etc.).
“Change information”, that is, information updated every time after the game is over is the understanding rate, basic parameter value, reliability, usable command and each execution level. In addition, the number of times of continuation and the date and time (year / month / day, time) when the game is over are recorded.
[0041]
The data recording card 7 also includes the name of the owner, for example, “Jowner Jiro”, the name, type and gender of the pet, for example, “Penta (Penguin)”, the last game date and time “2000/7 / 30 3rd ", the reliability, for example," 25% reliability "is displayed along with the appearance of the pet.
By using the data recording card 7 in this way, a game can be performed over a long period of time. Also, the pet can be remembered every time the data recording card 7 is viewed. The data recording card 7 can be collected by possessing various pets.
[0042]
Here, a specific continuation can be used when the voice recognition game apparatus is for business use.
For one thing, pet information can be changed by continuing. Specifically, as the number of times of continuation increases, the rate of increase in information such as “reliability”, “chirari”, and “skill” can be increased. This change can be adopted regardless of whether or not the data recording card 7 is used.
Further, when the data recording card 7 is used, it is possible to further change various kinds of information of the pet with time, or rarely change the pet dramatically.
For example, when various types of pet information are changed with time, if the player does not play for a long time (for example, January), for example, reliability and physical strength can be reduced. In addition, changing a pet dramatically on rare occasions can be, for example, changing a pet's pattern, or, for example, a value after the maximum value.
[0043]
Next, flowcharts of the voice recognition game apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
In step S11, an attract process is performed, and in the next step S12, it is determined whether or not a coin has been inserted. If it is determined in step S12 that no coin has been inserted, the process returns to step S11. If it is determined in step S12 that a coin has been inserted, the process proceeds to step S13, where the title screen is displayed, and the process proceeds to the next step S14.
[0044]
In step S14, it is determined whether or not a credit has been established. If it is determined that no credit has been established, the process returns to step S13. If it is determined in step S14 that a credit has been established, the game mode is set in step S15, and it is determined whether or not the player is a new player in step S16. This determination is made by selecting on the screen whether the player is a new play or a player who uses the data recording card 7 to play a game.
[0045]
If it is determined in step S16 that the player is a new player, a character is selected in step S17 (see FIG. 4), and a player and character name are input in step S18 (see FIG. 5). This input is performed by voice input as described above. In the next step S19, the characteristic data value is determined, and the process proceeds to step S22 in FIG. The characteristic data values are information set for the pet as described above, that is, the age, sex, personality, basic parameter values (ie, cleverness, appearance, etc.), reliability, and state of the pet.
[0046]
If it is determined in step S16 that the player is not a new player, the process proceeds to step S20 to read personal data. This reading is performed by reading the data recording card 7 inserted into the personal data input unit 6 of the casing 1. In step S21, the state of the pet is displayed, and the process proceeds to step S22 in FIG. In step S22, a list of commands is displayed, and in step S23, a command is selected. This is for the purpose of learning the command, and the competition in which the command to be learned can participate is determined. Therefore, after selecting a command in step S23, the corresponding competition is displayed in step S24. Thereby, it is possible to inform the player of the competition that can be participated. Next, in step S25, the command is determined by the player pressing the determination button.
[0047]
In the next step S26, voice input processing is performed. In this process, as described above, the player recognizes the command by voice input (see FIG. 6). In step S27, an appropriate value is calculated from the information of the voice recognition rate and the pet data (coefficient for each pet set based on the characteristic data) of the voice recognition processing unit 8 determined in step S26.
In step S28, the pet understanding rate is determined from the aptitude value described above.
In step S29, a command training process, that is, an execution level is set. This process trains execution timing, speed, height, etc. using the learned commands (see FIG. 7). When the processing in step S29 is completed, the execution level is displayed in step S30, and it is determined in step S31 whether the training has been successful. In step S30, pet parameters are determined from the understanding rate and the execution level.
[0048]
As a result of the determination in step S31, if it is determined that the training has failed, the process returns to step S22. As a result of the determination in step S31, if it is determined that the training is successful, the process proceeds to step S32 in FIG. Here, the success / failure of the training can be determined based on, for example, an execution level or a certain threshold value for the execution level and the understanding rate, and using this threshold value as a reference. As a result, participants who have not yet reached the competition are excluded.
In step S32, the competition is selected and determined. This selection is limited to competitions that can be entered by the acquired commands. In step S33, a competition explanation screen is displayed. In step S34, a pet having a parameter close to that of the player's pet is searched from the competitor list. Thus, the searched pet is displayed on the display screen together with the pet of the player (see FIGS. 8 and 9), and the competition is started in step S35.
[0049]
In step S36, it is determined whether or not it is cleared. If it is determined that it has not been cleared, the process proceeds to step S38. If it is determined in step S36 that the item has been cleared, reward item processing is performed in step S37. This process is a process of increasing the basic parameter value of the pet as described above. Then, in the next step S38, it is determined whether or not to enter the player list. Here, the player makes a display that can be selected on the display screen, and the player selects it. Here, if the player is included in the player list, when another player is playing a game, the player becomes a search target for the player and if the conditions are met, he / she joins the game as a competitor. As a result of the determination in step S38, if it is determined to be included in the player list, it is registered in the player list in step S39. As a result of the determination in step S38, if it is determined not to be included in the player list, the process proceeds to step S40. In step S40, the result is recorded in the rival log.
[0050]

Therefore, according to the above-described embodiment, an understanding rate is obtained by adding characteristic data to the speech recognition rate of the speech recognition processing unit 8, and the overall pet ability is determined by the pet parameters determined by the understanding rate and the execution level. Therefore, the range of personality of the pet is widened, and a more realistic game can be performed.
For example, if the pet type is a dog faithful to humans, the pet's understanding rate is corrected to a higher one, and if the pet's age is low, the understanding rate is corrected to a lower one, If the personality of the character is confusing, the understanding rate is corrected to a higher level, or if the pet is not good, the understanding rate is corrected to a lower level, or the pet's confidence in the player is low. Since the comprehension rate can be corrected to a lower level, a more realistic game can be performed.
[0053]
When a pet is operated in response to a command by voice input, it is necessary to balance the understanding rate and execution timing, so that the width of the pet can be widened and the fun of the game can be increased.
When a pet is trained using the voice input in consideration of the player's understanding of voice input, and the training result can be tested in the competition. It is possible to play a realistic game with the same reality.
[0054]
Since the pet information can be taken over to the next game by the data recording card 7, the game can be performed over a long period of time, and the game can be performed in the same manner as when a pet is actually raised. In addition, each time the data recording card 7 is viewed, the player remembers the pet and thus has an effect of prompting the player to play a game. Since the data recording card 7 itself is a collection target, the added value can be increased.
The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment. For example, when voice input is performed, if the voice recognition rate is used as it is for a game, the present invention is not limited to a game in which a game is played.
[0055]
