Abstract

PURPOSE:To perform efficient collating operation by using a switch which can be operated by a hand or foot, etc., in addition to a keyboard. CONSTITUTION:Data which are already inputted to an electric computer 7, etc., are voiced by using a voice synthesizer 10 and an operator controls the stop and restart of the voicing optionally during the collating check operation by using the switch 14 which can be operated by the hand or foot. Namely, the data which are already inputted to the electronic computer 7, etc., are voiced by using a data reader 11 and matched with original data. Therefore, the operator who carries out the collating operation can hear the data which are already inputted, so his or her eyes can be concentrated on data on a data sheet where the original data are entered, so the hands are used to handle the data sheet and trace the read data, etc. Consequently, the collating operation is performed securely and efficiently.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a data reading method, and in particular, to a method for comparing input data to a computer, etc. with original data, and for reading out input data. The present invention relates to a data reading method suitable for use in.

[Conventional technology]

In order to collate data already input into a computer or the like with original data, the following collation method has been used in the past.

(1) A method in which two operators input the same data, or - operators perform the input operation twice, and each input data is mechanically compared.

(2) A method of displaying the input data on the VDT and comparing it with the data sheet containing the original data.

(3) A method in which one operator reads out either the input data displayed on the VDT or the data on the data sheet, and another operator listens to the data while checking the other data.

(4) A method of printing out the entered data and checking it on your desk by overlapping it with the data sheet.

All of the above-mentioned methods are manual verification methods, and there has been no known method for efficiently verifying data input into a computer or the like with original data using some kind of auxiliary means.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

However, in the case of (1), the above solution is effective if there are two skilled operators, but in the case of an amateur, the verification work efficiency will be significantly reduced, and it is difficult to perform the input operation twice by one person. In the case of (2), the operator's eyes move frequently, causing great fatigue and the collation work efficiency is poor; in the case of (3), although the efficiency is good, the operator requires two
(4) It requires a person and the reading aloud causes a lot of fatigue. (4)
In case (2), the operator's fatigue is improved compared to case (2) because the movement of the eyes is reduced, but there is a problem in that it takes time and the cost of printing paper to make the printer print.

The purpose of the present invention is to enable one operator to check the data entered into a computer etc. against the original data.
The purpose is to make it possible for the person reading one side's data to feel as if they were standing next to the operator.

[Means for Solving the Problem] According to the present invention, the above object is to read out input data to a computer etc. using a speech synthesis device, and to read out input data to a computer etc. using a switch that can be operated by hand or foot. This is achieved by allowing the operator to stop and restart the reading at his/her discretion during the collation check operation.

[Effect]

Data that has been input into a computer, etc. is read aloud using a data reading device, and the data is compared with the original data.

Operators performing verification work can listen to the human data, so they can concentrate on the data on the data sheet containing the original data, and they can also read the data sheet 1- and track the read-out data. etc. can be performed manually, and even if the operator is an amateur, the verification work can be performed reliably and efficiently. If the operator discovers a discrepancy between the input data and the original data while reading this data, the operator can stop reading the data and check the discrepant data by operating the switch mentioned above. After modifying the input data, reading of the data can be restarted. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to correct mismatched data found in a verification check in a short time.
Verification work can be performed efficiently.

It has a control program 9 for controlling the display of data, controlling the input of data from the keyboard 6, and controlling the output of data to the speech synthesis device 10. It has a slip file 8 that is stored as input data.

The speech synthesis device 10 also composes data based on data provided from the computer 7 and a speech data memory 12 in which digitized speech data corresponding to characters such as alphabets, numbers, and kana characters is stored. A data reading control device 11 extracts voice data corresponding to the character from the voice data memory 12 and performs voice synthesis, and the synthesized voice data given from the data reading control device 11 is converted into an analog voice signal and sent to the earphone 3 via the cord 4. It is composed of an audio playback device 13. The foot switch 14 is connected to the reading control device 1 via the code I5.
1, and its operation controls the stop and restart of reading.

The operation of the data reading method of the present invention configured as described above will be explained according to the operating procedure shown in FIG.

The data written on the slip 16, which is the original data, is input in advance by key-in input, OCR input, etc., and is stored in the slip data file 8 in the computer 7 as input data. When the operator 1 commands from the keyboard 6 to start reading out the input data, the computer 7
The first data "1234" for the first slip in the slip data file 8 is displayed on the Pure 5, and the data "1234" and a data reading instruction signal are sent to the speech synthesizer 10 [■]. The data reading control device 11 extracts audio data corresponding to required data from the audio data memory 12 and provides it to the audio reproduction device 13 . The audio reproduction device 13 converts this audio data into an analog audio signal, and allows the operator 1 to listen to the sounds of "Ichi, ni, san, shi" via the earphones 3. Operator 1 listens to this audio signal, visually checks the slip 16, and if the inputted data he has heard matches the data written on the slip 16, he determines that the matching is OK and presses the foot switch. 14 (■). The data reading control device 11 detects the operation of the fit switch 14 and requests the computer 7 to update the next data.

Computer 7 immediately reads the next data IF 557 IT
is displayed on the Pure 5 in the same manner as described above, and the speech synthesizer 10 is instructed to read out this data [■]. Operator L listens to this and records the original data on slip 16.
567'', determines that the verification is NG, and operates the foot switch 14 [■]. The data reading control device 11 immediately requests the computer 7 to stop updating the next data. The computer 7 stops updating to the next data.The operator 1 visually checks the displayed data on the Pure 5, uses the keyboard 6 to correct any incorrect data, and instructs to resume data reading [■ ].The electronic computer 7 replaces the incorrect data "557" in the slip data file 8 with the correct data "5".

and corrected correct data” 567
” is read out to the data reading control device. If the operator listens to this corrected data and determines that the verification is OK, he operates the foot switch 14 [■] and requests an update to the next data. .

By repeating these steps, operator 1
Check all data on slip A and make corrections. Slip A
When all of the data has been verified, the computer 7 notifies the operator 1 of update permission guidance for the next slip B via the Pure 5 or by emitting a signal sound. After the operator 1 operates the foot switch 14,
The verification work for the next slip B is performed in the same manner as described above.

The foot switch 14 is, for example, a switch that is turned on when pressed with the foot and turned off when the foot is removed.If the verification is OK, the foot switch 14 is turned on for a short period of time. In this case, the switch is held down while the switch is being corrected and the corrected data is listened to, and when the correct correction is made, the switch is released and the next data is requested to be updated.

Further, the foot switch 14 may be provided separately for verification OK and NG.

Furthermore, the foot switch 14 may be a switch that can be operated with a hand other than a keyboard, or a switch that can be operated with a part of the register body.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, according to the present invention, reading can be immediately stopped and restarted by using a switch that can be operated with hands or feet in addition to the keyboard. In addition, when used in combination with a keyboard, it is possible to configure an effective and user-friendly data reading system that allows data to be easily corrected and used for data collation work. Therefore, when using the data reading method according to the present invention to compare data that has been input into a computer, etc. with the original data, the operator must visually read the original data on the slip while listening to the input data. Not only can even an amateur perform the verification process easily and efficiently, but you can also use a foot switch or other switch that does not require manual operation to stop or stop reading the document while holding it in your hand. Since the restart can be controlled, the operator can concentrate on visually and manually collating data, and can further improve work efficiency.
