It is composed of voice synthesizers for generating an analog voice signal by outputting the sound source information output under the control of the controller and outputting it to a speaker to listen to voice,

After the user operates the computer to access the server via the communication control unit and the internet network through an input unit such as a keyboard or a mouse connected to the controller, selecting a site of a desired server displays an initial screen on the screen.

When the user selects the menu of membership registration, the user inputs information related to membership registration.

When the user inputs all information such as user ID, password, name, social security number, gender, date of birth, address, and e-mail in order, the user is notified of the end of membership registration and displayed to select a desired search site.

After selecting a search site desired by the user, selecting and inputting a name of necessary information displays detailed information of a corresponding name.

When selecting the site of the server, the desired search site or the name of the information, the controller that recognizes the user's option is notified to the server and the sound source information transmitted simultaneously with the initial screen is output to the voice synthesis unit. By generating an analog voice signal and outputting it to the speaker, the user can listen to the guidance of the selected site with a simple greeting until the information is transmitted and displayed.
