Description
The present invention relates to an interworking service providing server and method, and more particularly to an interworking service providing server and method that can provide an integrated platform capable of bidirectional services between heterogeneous devices.
IPTV (Internet Protocol TeleVision) is an interactive television service provided by using a high-speed internet network, which is different from general cable broadcasting in that viewers can watch only programs they want to watch at a convenient time.
It is a service that provides various contents and additional services provided by the Internet such as broadcasting, information service, video content, home shopping, home banking, online game, MP3 etc. to the television receiver using high speed internet. Only the box and the Internet line need to be connected.
IPTV is not different from general cable broadcasting or satellite broadcasting in that it provides broadcasting contents including video, but the biggest feature is that IPTV is added.
Recently, a two-way service linking an IPTV and a smart phone has been developed, and a new model for retrieving additional data on content output from the IPTV has been proposed. Regarding a method of providing information combining IPTV and a smart phone, Korean Patent Publication No. 2011-0127093, which is a prior art, discloses a method for providing a service for identifying additional content information in a smart phone.
However, in providing two-way service in which IPTV and smart phone are connected, we use only the minimum system that does not consider the scalability of other devices at all. Therefore, when various handheld devices are applied, depending on the type of device A new or new system must be built or an existing set-top box must be replaced. In addition, in developing interactive services, investments are overlapping due to service-specific approaches such as smartphone-based services, tablet PC-based services, and interactive services. This sporadic implementation of the system has been a waste of budget in developing interactive IPTV due to the lack of an integrated platform.
By providing an integrated platform, various handheld devices can be used for IPTV interactive services, and by providing an integrated system to provide a standardized development environment, a server and method for providing interlocking services where development or investment can not be duplicated. Can provide. In addition, by improving the UI / UX (User Interface / User Experience) of the handheld device, I / O (Input / Output) spectrum can be extended. It is possible to provide an interworking service providing server and method that does not require the construction of. In addition, it is possible to provide an interworking service providing server and method that can prevent the waste of resources and costs by using the existing set-top box without replacing. By providing an open platform, it is possible to provide an interlocking service providing server and method that can provide an environment in which various developers can build additional systems such as Linux or Android development environment. By establishing itself as a standard for IPTV interactive services as an open platform, it is possible to provide an interoperable service providing server and method that Korea can take the initiative in IPTV interactive services that Apple and Google failed to preempt. It is to be understood, however, that the technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the above-described technical problems, and other technical problems may exist.
Technical means for achieving the above-described technical problem, an embodiment of the present invention comprises an image authentication apparatus for authenticating the image output device and the mobile terminal corresponding to the image output device; A data receiver configured to receive content data and additional content data synchronized with the content data from a content server; A content data processor configured to provide the received content data to a headend server managing the authenticated video output device; An additional content data processor configured to transmit the synchronized additional content data to the authenticated mobile terminal; And a service providing unit configured to provide an interlocking service between the authenticated mobile terminal and the authenticated video output device based on the control signal received from the authenticated mobile terminal.
Further, another embodiment of the present invention, the step of authenticating the image output device and the mobile terminal corresponding to the image output device; Receiving content data and additional content data synchronized with the content data from a content server; Providing the received content data to a headend server managing the authenticated video output device; Transmitting the synchronized additional content data to the authenticated mobile terminal; And providing an interworking service between the authenticated mobile terminal and the authenticated video output device based on the control signal received from the authenticated mobile terminal.
According to any one of the problem solving means of the present invention described above, by providing an integrated platform, it is possible to use a variety of handheld devices for IPTV interactive services, by providing an integrated system to provide a standardized development environment, Investment may not overlap. In addition, according to any one of the above-described problem solving means of the present invention, by improving the UI / UX (User Interface / User Experience) of the hand-held device, I / O (Input / Output) spectrum can be extended, scalability Even if the service is added to the integrated platform considering this, no additional or new system construction is necessary. In addition, according to any one of the problem solving means of the present invention described above, by establishing an open platform as a standard of IPTV interactive services, Korea can take the initiative of IPTV interactive services that Apple and Google failed to preoccupy.
