The present invention relates to a word information notification device that operates at irregular time intervals, the word information notification method using a wireless Internet or a text message provided in the prior art communication environment is a prerequisite, communication costs and service costs are additionally generated. There was a problem.

In addition, the periodic word information notification device function proposed in the previously published patent application has a problem that the learning effect is lowered as the user becomes accustomed to the cycle, and the notification cycle learning method according to the oblivion curve of the Herman Ebbing House presented in the above application is once There was a problem that the word memorization effect using the oblivion curve of Hermann Ebbing House appears only when the exposed word is consciously memorized.

In addition, the periodic word information notification device function proposed in the previously published application has a problem that the user has to enter the word to memorize one by one and specify the cycle for each word.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and combines a memory technology (for example, an electronic dictionary function with a built-in mobile communication terminal) corresponding to a conventional technology and an alarm function, and operates the alarm function at random time intervals. By adding a function that allows the user to repeatedly and forcibly contact the user's desired memorization target at random time intervals, the memorization effect can be maximized.

The present invention has the advantage that the communication environment is unnecessary because all functions are installed in the present invention, and additional costs such as communication costs and service costs do not occur to the user.

In addition, by providing information at irregular time intervals instead of periodic notifications, the effect of learning decreases due to a familiar cycle, and the user does not consciously memorize word information exposed by repeatedly acquiring information at irregular times. Even if you do not see or hear repeated exposure, you can expect a naturally memorized effect.

In addition, by providing grouping by level in the recent universal dictionary function (e.g., mounted on the mobile communication terminal), the user only needs to select a word level group of a desired level, so that the user must input word information one by one. The problem can be solved, and the time interval in which the notification is activated can also solve the problem of specifying a period for each word information by providing one or more irregular time interval modes in the present invention itself.

An object of the present invention is to provide a word information notification device that operates at irregular time intervals that can help the user memorize words by repeatedly contacting the word information at irregular time intervals only by the initial setting.

As described above, the word information notification device operating at irregular time intervals according to the present invention may maximize the memorization effect by viewing or listening to word information repeatedly displayed at irregular time intervals in daily life.

While the method using the wireless Internet or the text message provided by the prior art requires additional costs and a communication environment, the present invention is equipped with all the functions in the present invention, so that the communication environment is not necessary, and communication costs or service costs, etc. There is no added cost of the advantage.

In addition, by supplementing the problem that the user is accustomed to the cycle by operating at irregular time intervals instead of periodic notifications, the user does not consciously memorize the word information exposed by repeatedly exposing at irregular time intervals. Even if you do not, repeated exposure can be naturally memorized.

In addition, by providing a grouping by level in the recently generalized transcription dictionary function (for example, mounted in the mobile communication terminal), the user only needs to select a word level group of a desired level, so that the user must input word information one by one. In addition, the interval at which the notification is activated may also solve the problem of specifying a period for each word information by providing one or more irregular time interval modes in the present invention itself.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention includes a random time interval calculating unit 107 capable of calculating a random time interval, a memory unit 104 storing word information groups to be memorized and one or more irregular time interval modes, and irregular time. When it is time to inform the user of the word information by the interval, the word information group includes a controller 101 for providing the word information to the user in a sequential order or a random order, and a display unit for displaying the word information.

If the irregular time interval is to be provided only for selecting the irregular time interval mode stored in the memory, the irregular time interval calculator 107 may be excluded.

In addition, the irregular time interval mode stored in the memory may provide one or more modes.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention, if the word information notification function that operates at irregular time intervals from the user is selected, the step of selecting one of the irregular time interval mode stored in the memory and irregular time interval through the irregular time interval calculator; Selecting a word information group to be memorized by the user, selecting a sequence of words displayed in the word information group from a sequential order and a random order, and displaying the letter form or sound through the display unit 103. Exposing the word information, excluding the memorized word information from the word information group, and receiving another word information group from the user when the memorization of the selected word information group is completed.

If the irregular time interval is to be provided only for selecting the irregular time interval mode stored in the memory, the irregular time interval selection step through the irregular time interval calculator may be excluded.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The control unit 101 controls each part of the present invention. Then, the user's key input is received from the key input unit 102, and the display unit 103 is controlled accordingly to generate and provide image information according to the user's key input. In addition, when the word information notification function that operates at irregular time intervals is selected by the user, the controller 101 receives one of the irregular time interval mode stored in the memory and the irregular time interval through the irregular time interval calculator and the word information group to be memorized. , The order of the words displayed in the word information group is selected from the sequential order and random order (random), if the start of the function selection is selected, the first word information using the speaker, vibrator, display unit 103, and then When the next word information display time arrives at an irregular time interval selected by the user, the function of displaying word information in a sequential order or random order in the selected word information group is repeated.

In addition, the memory unit 104 connected to the control unit 101 includes a ROM for storing programs and data for processing and control of the control unit 101 and a RAM for providing a working memory of the control unit. (Random Access Memory: RAM) and a flash memory which provides an area for storing various updatable data for storage. In addition, the memory unit 104 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a word information group storage unit for storing word information groups to be memorized and an irregular time interval mode storage unit for storing a random time interval mode selectable by a user.

The display unit 103 may be formed of a liquid crystal display (LCD) or the like, and displays various display data and word information generated in the present invention.

The key input unit 102 may include a keypad or the like, and includes a plurality of numeric / character input keys and function keys for interfacing with a user, and controls the key input value input from a user. To provide.

The receiver of the RF transmitter / receiver 106 suppresses noise amplification as much as possible, amplifies a desired signal, generates a digital signal through an intermediate frequency, and the digital signal is analyzed and processed by the controller 101. In addition, the transmitter of the RF transmitter and receiver 106 modulates the signal generated by the controller to a desired frequency band and amplifies it.

The irregular time interval may use the irregular time interval mode stored in the memory unit 104 or may be calculated and applied by the irregular time interval calculation unit 107.

Irregular time intervals applicable to those skilled in the art for the preferred practice of the present invention can be any number of methods, depending on the choice of the manufacturer. An object of the present invention is a word information notification device that operates at irregular time intervals, and a method for implementing this function can be implemented in various ways without difficulty by those skilled in the art.

Here are two common examples of many implementations.

In the first method, when the word information notification device function that operates at irregular time intervals is selected by the user, the irregular time interval calculation unit 107 recognizes the second digit of the selected time point and the number is 4 (for example, , 09: 11: 24) π Value 4,2,8,5,7,1,4,2,8, starting at the point where the first 4 digits after the decimal point in conjunction with the digits after the decimal point (3.14285714285714…) 5, 7, 1, 4,... In order to determine the irregular time interval by the time multiplied by the number 5 minutes. In this case, the interval between irregular time intervals is 20 minutes, 10 minutes, 40 minutes, 25 minutes, 35 minutes, 5 minutes, 20 minutes, 10 minutes, 40 minutes, 25 minutes, 35 minutes, 5 minutes, 20 minutes, , Will be The time to multiply that number can be five minutes or any other time.

The second method is to use a value obtained by performing a constant operation using an initial value.

The initial value is a time value (seconds passed from January 1, 1970 to the present) that cannot be the same value (where the initial value can be any other 32-bit or 34-bit value).

For example, if you want to get random values between 1 and 50 and use them for irregular time interval notifications,

  Initial value = time value;

  Random value = ((initial value * 1103515245 + 12345) / 65536)% 32768;

  Time to next alarm = random number% 51;

Through the above calculation, we can randomly obtain one random value from 0 to 32767. If we divide the value by 51 again and get the remaining value, it becomes a random array of numbers from 1 to 50.

By multiplying the random number thus obtained by a specific time (for example, 5 or 10 minutes), a time value of an irregular time interval from 5 minutes to 250 can be obtained.

The above two methods are just examples, and various methods for implementing a notification device function that operates at an irregular time interval of the present invention may be various, and may also be implemented using a conventional random function generator, and a plurality of irregularities that can be selected by a user in advance. The time interval mode may be stored and provided in the memory unit 104.

Therefore, the present invention should not be limited to the above method, and it is possible in the technical field of the present invention to implement a word information notification device that operates at irregular time intervals in various ways without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention. It will be clear to those of ordinary knowledge.

2 is a flow chart illustrating a process in which a user repeatedly receives word information using a word information notification device operating at irregular time intervals using the present invention.

In step 201, if the user inputs a word information notification function selection key, the process proceeds to step 202.

In step 202, if the regular time interval operation selection key is entered during the time interval selection mode, the controller moves to step 203 to enter the word information notification operation time interval or selects one of the word information notification cycles stored in the memory, and then proceeds to step 205. In step 202, if the irregular function interval selection operation key of the notification function time interval selection mode is input, the operation proceeds to step 204 and selects one of the irregular time interval mode stored in the memory and the irregular time interval through the irregular time interval calculation unit and then selects 205 Go to step.

If the word information group to be memorized is selected in step 205, the control proceeds to step 206. In step 206, if one of the word information display mode in the sequential order and the word information display mode in the random order is selected, the operation proceeds to step 207. When the word information notification start button is selected in step 207, the word information is displayed in the sequential order or random order selected in step 206 from the word information group selected in step 205 according to the time interval selected in step 203 or step 204. Displayed with an alarm, the user performs a memorization or simply sees or hears.

When the word memorization is completed while performing the word information notification function displayed in step 208,

In step 209, the user enters the memorization complete selection key and moves to step 210 to exclude the memorized words from the word information group. If the memorization of the word is not completed, the user enters the memorization incomplete selection key to enter the word to be memorized. Stay in the information group and go back to step 208 to repeat steps 208, 209, and 210.

If the selected word information group is memorized by repeating steps 2087, 209 and 210, the user selects the memorize button of all the word information groups selected in step 211 and proceeds to step 212.

If you want to continue the other word information group notification function in step 212, go to step 213 by entering the continue memorizing other word information group selection key, and if the system does not continue memorizing other word information group, the system ends.

If you want to change the time period of the word information notification function in step 213, go to step 202 by entering the change the notification function time period selection key, execute the system, and if not changing the word information notification function time period to step 205 Select the word information group to move and memorize and run the system again.

The word information notification device is not only a mobile communication terminal, navigation, MP3, handheld game console, portable watch, car audio, PMP, PSP, electronic dictionary, digital camera, toy, baby computer, portable notebook, learning device but also user memorization Any device that can help will not be limited to anything.
