Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a voice-image communication service system using a text chat system,

The present invention relates to a voice-video communication service system using a text chatting method, and more particularly, to a voice-video communication service system using a character chatting method in which a layer capable of performing video call and video conference is overlapped It connects to chat room and inputs and confirms message through corresponding chat window. It displays chatting output layer and video communication layer separately for video call and video conference, and voice-video call service through text chatting method ≪ / RTI >

In addition, the present invention allows an external video device to be connected to a user terminal, real-time video image information of a surrounding environment can be transmitted / received through an external video device such as an OTG camera, And more particularly, to a voice-video call service system using a text chat system which can use a chat and a video call in a mixed manner.

According to the development of mobile communication technology, people carry a mobile terminal and can use a real time chatting and a voice call while moving on a mobile phone regardless of a place, and can provide a video call service capable of calling a face of a calling party while leaving a voice call .

In order to use the video call, the user must position the camera provided on the mobile terminal so as to face the user's face, and the user must view the mobile terminal at a predetermined distance in order to view the image of the other party displayed on the mobile terminal.

As a result, when the video call is used, the mobile terminal and the user are forced to keep a certain distance, and the voice of the other party output from the speaker must be larger than a general voice call.

In recent years, a video chatting service for chatting with a calling party during a video call has been provided. In the video call, the conversation contents are exchanged through the text chatting instead of the voice communication with the communication partner. The chatting service during the video call does not deviate from the form of the video chatting service provided in the wired network.

That is, the video call and the chat are performed separately and independently. The video is transmitted according to the video and the chat conversation contents are transmitted independently to the other party in accordance with the conversation contents, and merely the voice conversation is replaced with the chat text in the video call conversation.

In addition, the current video chat service is provided only when the user presses a separate menu or key for chat service on the mobile terminal in order to use the chat service during video call. There is a problem that it is not easy to use a video chat service for a user who is complicated in the function of the terminal and unfamiliar with the terminal function.

Accordingly, the present invention proposes a system construction method for providing a voice or video call service during a chat through a dedicated application of the user terminal or the web, and a method of providing voice or video call through the system.
