In the following, please refer to FIG. 3 in conjunction with the above to illustrate the method for executing the network conference according to the first embodiment of the present invention, which includes steps S01 to S08.

Step S01 is that the conference information generation module 101 of the electronic device 10 generates and transmits the conference information package 21 to the information recording module 14 of the conference participant to be invited. In this embodiment, since the conference information generating module 101 is an email module, it can send the conference information package 21 to the corresponding information recording module via email according to the participant's email address record 14的MailServer141. In other words, the meeting information package 21 of this embodiment is presented in an email format, and the meeting information package 21 at least includes information of meeting participants, meeting time information, meeting subject, connection information and the like.

In step S02, the mail server 141 of the information recording module 14 receives and records the conference information recording package 21 in an email format. At the same time, plural emails are also recorded in the mail server 141.

In step S03, the calendar server 142 of the information recording module 14 according to the primary filtering conditions (for example, the meeting including the keyword "meeting", the meeting date, or the user has selected "to participate" in the meeting), the mail server In 141, the conference information package 21 associated with the primary screening condition is selected, and the screening result is recorded in the calendar server 142. In this step, a plurality of meeting information packets may be recorded in the email, including from the meeting information generating module 101 and other sources.

In step S04, the application module 131 of the portable electronic device 13 is connected to the information recording module 14, and the application module 131 uses the preset meeting filter conditions (for example, including keywords "video conference", "a company", Or other special symbols), and the information record module 14 filters out the meeting information packets associated with the preset meeting filtering conditions, which includes the meeting information package 21 transmitted by the meeting information generating module 101. It should be noted that the preset meeting screening conditions can be defined and changed by meeting participants (or users). In addition, the following steps will take the case of screening out a plurality of conference data packages as an example.

Step S05, the application module 131 interprets and recognizes the screened out Meeting information packages, and sort them according to the execution time recorded in these meeting information packages. In this embodiment, the application module 131 can also automatically generate a meeting summary data table according to part of the content of the meeting information package, where the summary data table can include the IP address of the meeting connection, the meeting login account, the meeting login password, Meeting start time, etc., but it is not a limit. The meeting summary data table generated by the application module 131 can be stored in the storage space of the removable electronic device 13, such as a memory card, a temporary memory, etc. In other embodiments, the meeting summary data table meaning can be stored in the application module Cloud storage for group 131.

Step S06, the portable electronic device 13 is connected to the transmission interface module 122 of the first network conference device 12, and the aforementioned meeting summary data table generated by the application module 131 is transmitted to the first network conference装置12。 12 devices. In this embodiment, assuming that the location of the conference participants includes multiple conference venues, the conference participants can select a suitable conference venue, and the portable electronic device 13 is carried to the venue, and the portable electronic device 13 is made Connect with the transmission interface module 122 of the first network conference device 12 in the venue. Then, the application module 131 can transmit the conference summary data table to the first network conference device 12 through the removable electronic device 13 and display its contents on the display of the first network conference device 12 according to the previous sorting .

In step S07, the conference participant operates the first network conference device 12 through the human-machine interface, and selects the conference to be connected. In this embodiment, the human-machine interface may include a mouse, a keyboard, a touch panel, a remote controller, etc., and may even be directly operated by the removable electronic device 13.

Step S08: The first network conference device 12 automatically according to the connection IP address recorded in the corresponding conference information packet 21 of the selected conference, and the conference connection module 121 and the second network conference device 11 Connect.

In other embodiments, the first network conference device 12 can also automatically fill in the conference login account and conference login password according to the content of the conference information package 21 to complete the connection with the second network conference device 11 action.

According to the above, the method of executing the online conference is that the conference initiator directly informs the conference participants with the conference information generation module, and can intuitively operate the party Inform the meeting participants. In addition, the conference participants use the application module in the mobile electronic device to automatically screen out the upcoming conference from the information recording module and notify the conference participants. Since the meeting participants only need to bring a removable electronic device to connect with any first network meeting device with network connection function, and the meeting participants can freely select the appropriate first network meeting device, Prepare for web conference.

Next, please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 to explain the method of executing the network conference in the second embodiment of the present invention.
