Text and voice message remote output device using caller ID display function {APPARATUS FOR OUTPUTTING TEXT MESSAGES AND AUDIO MESSAGES TO REMOTE UNITS USING CALLER ID}

The present invention provides a caller ID display function for outputting desired text and voice to a display board, a corresponding text display device and a speaker, and a corresponding voice output device on a remote location by using a caller ID display function. The present invention relates to a remote output device for text and voice messages used.

In Korea, it can be seen that recently, a call-related additional service called 'caller number display service' has been implemented. This is commonly referred to as a 'Caller ID' service, that is, a 'CID' service.

CID services are based on the use of signaling standards in accordance with the Consultative Committee on International Telephone and Telegraphy (CCITT), the current International Telecommunications Union-Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) V.32. It is a service that provides information such as name or telephone number as a unique identification number, time information according to the origination and optical illusion.

In order to use the CID service, a wired / wireless telephone having a caller ID display function must be provided, and at the same time, a switch for providing a signal of the standard connected to the wired / wireless telephone is required. Wired and wireless telephones are provided by users according to general service use, and the switchboard is provided by telephone network operators according to service provision.

Currently, CID service is widely used in terms of the benefits of protecting the privacy of recipients in connection with phone calls, and the protection of call reception options through caller confirmation. However, in the case of the CID service, almost all of them are used as a calling party, i.e., as an identity checker.

This results in limited use of the service, despite the scalability provided by that signal specification.

For example, in the case of the CID service described above, in the case of the CID service, the caller's name and time information according to the call origination can also be checked by the receiver, and other caller information other than the caller's phone number where such information can be transmitted can be obtained. There is no separate service available.

This is because the existing calling party indication wired / wireless telephones are only used in terms of their meaning, purpose, and practicality.

In addition, the user can use the characteristics unique to the CID service more conveniently, and a service can be provided that can be used in more various fields. However, there is no proposal of a special service satisfying this.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide an additional service that users may need in various fields by using the provided CID service, and in particular, to detect caller ID on the CID service. The present invention provides an additional device related to a CID service that can improve user convenience.

A more specific object of the present invention is to output a desired text and / or voice to a display board and / or a speaker on a remote site by using a CID service and a caller ID display function that provides the service directly to a user. And a remote display device for text and voice messages using a caller ID display function to output a desired text and voice by providing a text display device corresponding to the display board and a voice output device corresponding to the speaker. In providing.
