A user who visits the karaoke store inputs his / her own user identification information and identification information including a password, or reads the identification information stored in the IC card with an IC card reader provided in the remote control device 1 or the like. Thus, the authentication process S101 is executed. The karaoke device 2 or the remote control device 1 that has read the user identification information transmits the identification information to the karaoke host 5 (S102), and the karaoke host 5 that has received the identification information is based on the database stored in the storage unit 51. The user information of the corresponding user is extracted (S121) and transmitted to the karaoke device 2 or the remote control device 1 that has made the inquiry (S122).

  On the karaoke device 2 side that has received the user information (S103), various service processes such as a music selection process and a performance process are provided based on the received user information (S104). When logout is requested by the user (S105), service processing is interrupted, and various histories (logs) during service processing or user information reflecting setting changes by the user are transmitted to the karaoke host 5 (S106). Here, user information may transmit only the updated difference other than transmitting all information. In the karaoke host 5 that has received the user information (S123), the database stored in the storage unit 1 is updated based on the received user information (S124).

  The flow from one user authentication process (login process) to logout has been described above. However, in the karaoke apparatus 2 and the remote control apparatus 1 of the present embodiment, a plurality of authenticated users (authenticated users) log in simultaneously. The user providing the service (hereinafter referred to as “active user”) can be switched and used by using the user interface described in FIG. Yes.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an active user top screen according to the embodiment of the present invention. As shown in this figure, when a plurality of users are logged in, the logged-in user column 103 displays the logged-in images 103a to 103e (face portions in this embodiment) of the logged-in user. In the logged-in user column 103, the user whose background is highlighted at the right end is the active user 103e. In the state shown in the figure, the service for the active user 103e, that is, the user information of the active user 103e is used. The service is running. On the active user top screen, operation objects (operation buttons) such as “singer name search”, “song name search”, and “genre” are displayed, and input by the user can be accepted. The logged-in user selects a song to be sung by selecting various menus corresponding to the operation object, and makes a reservation for the karaoke apparatus 2.

  As shown in FIG. 7 (details will be described later), in the remote control device 1 that is used by a plurality of users logging in, the operation object used by the plurality of users in the touch panel monitor 11 and used by a specific logged-in user Are displayed together. In the remote control device 1 of the present embodiment, operability with respect to the touch panel 11 is improved by applying an operation correction value in consideration of a user's operation habit corresponding to each operation object.

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing touch panel display processing according to the embodiment of the present invention. The touch panel display process of the present embodiment is a process of forming a display screen of the touch panel 11 by being repeatedly executed while the remote control device 1 is activated. When the process is started, operation correction values are first acquired from the user information for all logged-in users (S201). As described with reference to FIG. 3, the operation correction value is information recorded in the personal information of the user information. Next, the remote control device 1 acquires a default operation correction value (S202). The default operation correction value is information recorded for each remote control device 1 and is stored in a nonvolatile manner in the memory 14 of the remote control device 1 or the like.

  The operation correction value of the present embodiment is information for correcting the operable region for the operation object. For example, it is conceivable to use a deviation with respect to the operable area that is initially set for the operation object. The deviation from the operable region uses the absolute amount of coordinates in the left and right and up and down directions, or the operation buttons having different sizes such as “singer name search” and “genre” as shown in FIG. In this case, the absolute amount of the shift coordinates may be changed according to the size of the operation button. For example, it is conceivable to set a large absolute amount of misalignment coordinates for a large operation button and to set a small absolute amount of misalignment coordinates for a small operation button. The operation correction value of the present embodiment corrects the operable region. However, when the touch panel 34 to be used is a pressure-sensitive type, a pressure threshold value for determining that there is an operation may be adopted.

  Next, an operation object to be displayed is extracted from various information constituting the screen (S203). Here, in addition to the operation buttons shown in FIG. 5 and the like, the operation object adopts various forms in which an operable area is set for the touch panel 34 such as a slide button, a rotation button, and a radio button for adjusting a value such as a volume. Is possible.

In S204, it is determined whether or not the extracted various operation objects are operation objects corresponding to the user. Normally, a plurality of operation objects are displayed in one screen, but this determination process is executed for each operation object. When the operation object corresponds to the user (S204: Yes), the corresponding user operation correction value is applied to the operation object (S205). If the operation object does not correspond to the user (S204: No), the default operation correction value is applied to the operation object. In S207, an operation object to which such an operation correction value is applied is displayed on the touch panel screen 11 (S207). By executing the processes of S201 to S207 described above for each screen switching (S208: Yes), a screen including an operation object to which an appropriate operation correction value is applied is formed.

  FIG. 7 shows a diagram for explaining the operation object type on the active user top screen described in FIG. In FIG. 7, various operation objects indicated by a symbol A and operation objects in a broken line frame indicated by a symbol A are operation objects corresponding to the user. The number attached to the symbol A indicates that it corresponds to each logged-in user. The operation object corresponding to the code A1, specifically, “singer name search”, “song name search”, “genre”, “ranking”, “latest song information”, “reki”, “scoring”, “foreign language” For the operation object (operation button) used by the active user such as “search”, the operable region is corrected based on the operation correction value of the active user.

  On the other hand, operation objects (operation buttons) indicated by reference signs A2 to A5 are operation objects corresponding to users who are logged in other than the active user (operation objects not compatible with the active user). When another user uses the remote control device 1, a process of switching the active user by performing a touch operation on the operation object on which the self-portrait image is written is executed. Therefore, the correction of the operable area corresponding to each operation object is executed based on the operation correction value of each user. FIG. 7 shows operation objects corresponding to the four users corresponding to the reference signs A2 to A5, and the operation correction value of the corresponding user is applied to each operation object.

  In addition, the operation object (operation button) indicated by symbol B is an operation object (not compatible with active users) that may be touch-operated by all logged-in users or guest users who do not have an account. Operation object). Therefore, in the present embodiment, the default operation is performed for the operation object indicated by the symbol B, specifically, “user switching”, “guest”, “new registration”, “login”, and “logout”. The correction value is to be applied. For these operation objects, in addition to correcting the operable area using the default operation correction value, the initial operable area may be applied.

  The logged-in users shown in FIG. 7 are configured such that five users including active users are displayed at the top of the screen. However, in the remote control device 1 of the present embodiment, five or more users can log in simultaneously. It is. In that case, by touching “user switching” displayed in the upper part of the screen, the screen changes to the user switching screen, and the active user is selected.

  FIG. 8 shows a user switching screen according to the embodiment of the present invention. In this user switching screen, a maximum of 12 logged-in users can be displayed in one screen, and operation objects (operation buttons) corresponding to each user are displayed. In addition, when it cannot be displayed on one screen, it is possible to switch pages by touching the operation objects “previous page” and “next page” having arrow shapes shown on the right.

Also in the user switching screen of FIG. 8, the operation correction values to be applied to the respective operation objects are different as in the case of FIG. The operation objects indicated by reference signs A1 to A6 are operation objects corresponding to the users A to F, and the operation correction value of each user is applied to these operation objects, and the operation possible area is corrected. The On the other hand, for the operation object indicated as “close” indicated by the symbol B and the operation objects indicated as “previous page” and “next page” in the broken line frame indicated by the symbol B, the default is set. The operation correction value is applied, and the operable region is corrected.

  The touch panel monitor 11 of the remote control device 1 in the karaoke system has been described above as an example. However, in addition to the touch panel monitor 11 of the remote control device 1, the present invention is not limited to the touch panel monitor 33 on the karaoke device 2 side where the same use is performed. It is good also as applying to. In addition to the karaoke system, the present invention may be applied to various information processing apparatuses that have a touch panel and are used by a plurality of users logging in simultaneously. Further, it can be realized as a program (information processing apparatus program) installed in various information processing apparatuses.

  Now, a method for setting the operation correction value described above will be described. The operation correction value includes an operation correction value corresponding to each user and a default correction value, that is, an operation correction value commonly used in the remote control device 1. In the present embodiment, both operation correction values are set by executing correction value setting processing in the remote control device 1.

  FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing the correction value setting process according to the embodiment of the present invention. This correction value setting process is executed by selecting from a menu (not shown) for performing various settings in the remote control device 1. When the correction value setting process is executed in a state where the active user uses it as shown in FIG. 7, the operation correction value of the active user is set. Further, when the correction value setting process is executed in a state where no one is logged in as shown in FIG. 2 or in a state where the guest user is using it, a default operation correction value is set.

  When the correction value setting process is started, a correction operation object is displayed on the touch panel monitor 11 (S301). FIG. 10 shows a correction value setting screen on which a plurality (eight) correction operation objects are displayed. The user who sets the operation correction value (Mr. A in this case) performs a touch operation on all the correction operation objects (operation buttons) in which “1” to “8” are written. If the operation is interrupted halfway, the correction value setting process is completed by operating the operation object described as “return”. When a touch operation is performed on each correction operation object (S302: Yes), the remote controller 1 records the operation position (S303). When the touch operation is completed on all the correction operation objects (S304: Yes), an operation correction value is calculated based on the operation position recorded in S303 (S305).

  FIG. 11 is a diagram for explaining the calculation of the operation correction value. In FIG. 10, a touch operation is performed on eight correction operation objects having the same size. In FIG. 11, eight operation positions for one operation object are shown. In the case of FIG. 11, looking at each of the eight operation positions, it can be seen that the user tends to touch the lower right. In the present embodiment, the average position of the eight operation positions acquired on the correction value setting screen is calculated, and the operable area is corrected based on the deviation between the average position and the center position of the operation object. In the example of FIG. 11, correction is performed so that the operable region that originally matches the contour of the operation object is moved in the direction of the shift based on the shift between the average position and the center position of the operation positions. In the present embodiment, the right direction of the screen is defined as the positive direction of the X axis, the upward direction of the screen is defined as the positive direction of the Y axis, and the deviation amount of the operable region after the correction with respect to the initial operable region is defined as the operation correction value. It is quantified.

In the correction value setting process of the present embodiment, a correction operation object having the same size is displayed, and the operation correction value is acquired based on the average value of the operation positions, but the correction operation displayed in the correction value setting process The object may display a plurality of types of sizes and acquire an operation correction value for each type of size. In the actual operation of the remote control device 1, by using an operation correction value corresponding to the size of the operation object, the user's operation habit suitable for the size of each operation object is reflected to improve operability. Is possible.

  The operation correction value acquired in this way is recorded according to the type of the user being used. That is, when the user in use is an active user (S306: Yes), it is recorded in the user information as the operation correction value of the active user (S307). On the other hand, if the user in use is a guest user or no one is logged in, it is recorded as the default operation correction value of the remote control device 1 (S308). By performing the correction value setting process in this way, it is possible to acquire an operation correction value for each user or a default operation correction value.

  The setting of the operation correction value may be set (corrected) in a learning manner based on the touch operation of the remote control device 1 in addition to performing the correction value setting process in this way. In the form of performing such correction processing, as in the correction value setting processing described with reference to FIG. 10, in addition to acquiring a uniform operation correction value for each operation object, it is possible to acquire an operation correction value for each operation object. Is possible. In the screen of FIG. 7, the operation correction value of Mr. A who is an active user is set in a learning manner based on an operation on the operation object corresponding to the symbol A1 such as “singer name search”, “song name search”. In addition, the operation correction value for each user is set in a learning manner based on the operation on the operation object corresponding to the reference signs A2 to A5. Then, a default operation correction value is set in a learning manner based on operations on commonly used operation objects such as “new registration” and “login”.

  In FIG. 8, the application of the operation correction value on the user switching screen has been described. However, when the operation objects of a plurality of users are adjacent to each other as described above, the tendency of each user to operate is different. It is conceivable that the operable area is superimposed. In the touch panel display process to be described next, in consideration of such a situation, the operation possible region is prevented from being superimposed.

  FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing touch panel display processing for such a form. In the flowchart of FIG. 12, the processing of S211 to S216, S219, and S220 is the same as that described in the touch panel display processing described in FIG. The touch panel display process of the present embodiment has a different form in the processes of S217 and S218.

  When the user-specific or default operation correction value is applied to the operation object in S215 and S216, it is determined whether or not the operable region of each operation object is superimposed (S217). If it is determined that the operable area is superimposed, the operation object is repositioned (S218). In the user switching screen of FIG. 8, for example, the operation objects corresponding to each user are displayed in the order in which the user logged in. In the present embodiment, the arrangement ( Here, the arrangement order) is changed.

  FIG. 13 shows a state in which the operable area of each user is corrected in the initial state (no change in arrangement), as in FIG. In such a state, since the corrected operable region is superimposed between adjacent users, the remote control device 1 has a region where the touch operation cannot be determined. Therefore, in the present embodiment, as illustrated in FIG. 14, the operation objects are rearranged so that the operable areas are not superimposed in consideration of the corrected operable area. In such a form, it is possible to improve the operability according to the operation rod of each user without overlapping the operable regions. In this embodiment, the arrangement order of the operation objects is changed to change the arrangement order. However, the arrangement change is not limited to such a form 2, but may be appropriately performed such as adjusting the interval between the operation objects. Can be adopted.

  Note that the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and embodiments configured by appropriately combining the configurations of the respective embodiments also fall within the scope of the present invention.
