Voice service system of OS shell service and application program using communication means and method

The present invention relates to a voice service system and a method of an operating system shell service and an application program using a communication means, and more particularly, to perform a program by controlling a remote computer by voice or text input through a remote communication means, The present invention relates to a voice service system and a method of an operating system shell service and an application program using a communication means capable of performing an operating system shell service such as directory, file information management and the like, and receiving the result by voice.

In general, a computer may be driven according to a user's command input through a keyboard or a mouse to receive data or services desired by a user, but there is no means to satisfy a remote computer. There is a program that searches the Web using a remote phone only. When a user accesses a program such as SimMani or Yahoo, and enters a word of a site to be searched by using a phone button, The search results are converted into voice and notified to the user.

However, it not only browses the web, but also performs all programs executed on the computer operating system and services the results by voice, or performs an operating system shell service that manages or changes directory and file information and receives the results by voice. "Operating system" method is not yet used.

Accordingly, the present invention executes an application program by controlling a remote computer through a voice or text command inputted by a user using a communication means, and performs an operating system shell service such as directory, file information management, etc. It is an object of the present invention to provide an operating system shell service and a voice service system of an application program using a communication means that can be serviced, and a method of driving the same.

In order to achieve the above object, a voice service system of an operating system shell service and an application program using a communication means according to the present invention transmits a voice or string command and has a remote means and a voice or string command transmitted from the communication means. And a processing means for driving the operating system shell services and application programs, converting the processing result into voice and transmitting the result to the communication means.

In addition, the operating system shell service and the voice service method of the application program using the communication means according to the present invention for achieving the above object comprises the steps of interpreting the command input from the communication means to read whether a voice command or a string command; And executing the operating system shell service or application program according to the read voice or string command, and converting the execution result of the operating system shell service or application program to voice and transmitting the same to the user.

The present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a configuration diagram of a voice service system of an operating system shell service and an application program using a communication means according to the present invention.

Commands from the remote telephone 1 are input via the modem 2 of the computer system 30 and temporarily stored in the input buffer 3. The telephone 1 includes all communication means capable of dialing using a button, such as a general landline telephone, a wireless telephone, a mobile telephone, a PCS telephone, an ISDN terminal, and the like, and for transmitting a voice to a counterpart. In addition, the command input from the telephone 1 includes a character string or a voice command of a user through button input. Of course, the commands input via the telephone 1 are input to the computer system via a telephone station or a mobile communication base station. Commands temporarily stored in the input buffer 3 are interpreted by the command decoder 4 as voice input or string input according to a user-specified state. As a result of the interpretation of the command decoder 4, the voice command is read by the speech recognition engine 5 in the case of the voice input, and the string command is read by the button processor 6 in the case of the text input. The processor 20, that is, the application program 7, the operating system 8, the Internet service 9, and the like, are executed in accordance with the command read by the speech recognition engine 5 and the button processor 6. The processor 20 to be performed includes operating system commands such as file and directory management, applications such as reading, modifying, or creating documents, Internet services (Web, E-Mail), and the like. The text file generated as a result of the processor 20 is converted into a voice file through the text-to-speech (hereinafter referred to as TTS) engine 10. The converted voice file is temporarily stored through the output buffer 11 and then transmitted to the remote telephone 1 through the modem 2. Thus, the user can know the execution result by the voice transmitted through the telephone 1.

Fig. 2 is a button configuration diagram of a general telephone, in which the character values (0-9, #, *) pressed when the buttons of the telephone are pressed are transmitted to the modem as character strings. The transmitted value is decrypted by the remote command decoder, speech recognition engine and button processor. The decryption method is as follows. The # button of the phone changes the alphabets and numbers, and in the case of English letters, the * button acts as a backspace, and the 0 button enters the same character consecutively with the spacebar function or the character to be entered is the same as the previous character. Use when you need to press a letter. For example, to enter the string "boy", press the 2 button twice, the 6 button three times, and the 9 button three times. To input "aa bb", pressing 2,0,2,0 combines "aa" and pressing 0,2,2,0,2,2,0 combines "bb".

Another command input method is through voice recognition. For example, if you enter "email" as a voice, the command interpreter on the remote computer reads it as a voice input, and the voice recognition engine recognizes "email" to execute the command.

Another command input method is to set a number corresponding to a service command and to execute a program corresponding to the number entered. For example, E-mail service is selected when 1 is entered, Word Read is selected when 2 is entered, Web is selected when 3 is entered, and operating system shell service is selected when 4 is entered. If these numbers are entered, the corresponding command is executed.

In this manner, a character and a number are inputted to perform a corresponding command, and when a voice is input, a command according to the voice command is performed.

3 (a) and 3 (b) are flowcharts illustrating a voice service method of an operating system shell service and an application program using a communication means according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3 (a), the command input from the user is input and interpreted (11). If the input command is a voice of "word read" or an internally set number corresponding thereto (12), a message for inputting a file name is transmitted to the user (13). The user inputs the file name by voice or string input method according to the file name input message (14). When the file name is input, the application program executes a document writing program such as MS WORD97 (15) by OLE Automation (15) and reads the corresponding file (16). The entire contents of the read file are copied to the clipboard (17). The contents of the copied file are converted into voice files (Wave) by the TTS (18). The converted voice file is transmitted to the phone via a modem so that the user can listen to the contents of the file by voice (19). In this case, when the document to be read is long, it may be transmitted to the user in units of pages or paragraphs.

As a result of the interpretation of the input command, if the command is input to "E-Mail" by voice or an internally set number corresponding thereto (21), the user selects whether to check the received mail or transmit the mail through a string or voice recognition ( 22).

When checking the mail arrives, the application connects to the POP3 server using the Windows Sockets class and sends a retrieve command (23). The contents of the mail retrieved by the search command are transmitted to the server (24). The contents of the received mail are converted into a voice file through the TTS (18) and transmitted to the user (19).

When sending the mail, if the e-mail address of the destination is input by voice or a string (25), a message to record the user's voice is transmitted. When recording a voice of a user, the voice modem is initialized with a command for recording a voice among commands of a standard modem (Rockwell), and the voice of the user is recorded (26). After recording, the voice is recorded in the form of a wave, but since there is no header of the wave, the wave header is attached. The voice file recorded in the wave form is transmitted to the E-mail address (27).

As a result of the interpretation of the input command, when the command is input as "Web" by voice or an internally set number corresponding thereto (31), an Internet address (URL) is input through a string or voice recognition (32). After the contents of the homepage are stored in another file (33), the contents are notified, and the URLs of the linked pages are mapped with the numbers and stored (34).

For example, internally set number 1 to "www.chollian.net". From here, you can access the homepage using the CInternetSession and CInternetFile classes from the Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC). You access the URL using OpenURL member function of CInternetSession class, and bring the contents of homepage using ReadString, a member function of CInternetFile. The contents and URL are converted into voice files through TTS and transmitted. If a user wants to go to a linked URL, call the URL mapped to the number as described above, and select the number of the URL to access the URL.

Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 3 (b), when the shell service of the operating system is selected by voice or string input (401), a message for selecting a type of shell command is transmitted to the terminal (402). By this, the user selects one of 'directory, file management' and 'system management'. If you select 'Directory, File Management' (403), a message is sent to the terminal to input the drive name, and if the user enters the drive name, for example, 'c' (404), the root directory information of drive c ( Directory list, file list, etc.) is transmitted to the user (405). If you want to use the directory here, enter the directory name directly or the directory name is mapped to the number, so enter the number (406). If a directory name or a mapped number corresponding thereto is entered, the directory is moved to information on the directory (407). If you want to delete, move, create, rename, or delete a directory, select the '*' button on the remote terminal (telephone) to call up the menu to delete or move and select from the menu. (408). If you choose to delete it, you will be prompted to enter the directory or file name to delete (409). After the user hears the message and enters a directory or file name, it is executed (410). The above operating system shell services use the functions supported by Visual C ++ to perform commands such as delete, move, and create.

If the 'system management' is selected (411) the system management list is transmitted. Types of commands include 'system reboot', 'system off', 'screen control', etc., which can be selected among them (412). If 'system reboot' or 'system off' is selected, the system calls ExitWindowEx () function internally. If 'screen control' is selected, systemParametersInfo () function is called internally (413). The ExitWindowEx () function and the SystemParametersInfo () function are functions supported by Visual C ++.

As described above, according to the present invention, an application service such as an operating system shell service, an Internet service, and a document writer can be executed by using a voice or string command through a communication means, as by direct keyboard input. Can also be provided by voice from a remote location.
