Definitions

  • This invention is about a new type of network games with a new device to enjoy games.
  • the development of network games and its enjoyment by gamers will be done not by a keyboard, which has been a dominant device so far, but by a voice-recognizing device, which can maximize its convenience.
  • a keyboard is not a only a device of great account but an indispensable command input device.
  • network games are not already established person-to-computer games but person-to-person games in the network situation, where gamers compete with each other. Starcraft is an example in point.
  • This characteristic of network games makes it hard to stop enjoying games after a short period of time and makes gamers continue for a long time. While enjoying games, gamers put their commands through a keyboard, resulting in the high strain on their wrists working on the keyboard. Consequently, teenagers, the majority of network game users, can have trouble in their physical developments.
  • the characteristic of network games assumes people being good at keyboard typing and therefore gives the problem of excluding people without that ability and the disabled on hands from another society of cyber world. Disclosure of Invention
  • a voice-recognizing network game programs(St 1, St 3' , 100) without the aid of a keyboard already in use, a hardware installed with a voice-recognizing module(200), or network games installed with a sound card already in use and a microphone(300) can serve the purpose of making the network games by voice possible, solving the problem described above, and maximizing its convenience.
  • Figure(Fig) 1 shows the operating procedures of the voice-recognizing network games based on this invention
  • Fig 2 shows how this invention works in the systems.
  • Fig 3 shows operating hardwares and interconnecting equipments.
  • This invention is equipped with a voice-recognizing network game program(St 1, St 3' , 100), a hardware installed with a voice-recognizing module(200), a sound card already in use and a microphone(300), etc.
  • This invention is equipped with a voice-recognizing network game program(St 1, St 3' , 100), a hardware installed with a voice-recognizing module(200), a sound card already in use and a microphone(300) , etc.
  • the programs and hardwares described above control every single detail when the network games start by the inputs of voice through the programs described above, hardwares, microphones, etc. So this invention makes it possible to enjoy network games without a keyboard.
  • Fig 1 shows the operating procedure of voice-recognizing network game programs connected with hardwares.
  • (St 1) starts operation of the voice-recognizing network games.
  • (St 2) put command words of network game programs by the hardwares installed with voice-recognizing modules(200) as described above or a sound card already in use and a microphone(300). For example, if a gamer wants to move eastward, he or she can put it by saying "eastward" through the microphone(200).
  • step network game program(St 1, St 3' , 100) determines(discrimination) whether the voice input is right or not. The right input goes to (St 4) and the wrong one goes back to (St 2) and gets a voice input again.
  • Fig 2 is the chart that shows how the voice-recognizing network game programs described above and systems work together and details are as follow.
  • (St 1' ) starts operation of the system, or the computer.
  • (St 2' ) starts operation of 0/S programs such as WINDOWS or DOS.
  • (St 3' ) starts operation of the voice-recognizing network game programs, which means the start of the voice-recognizing network game.
  • (St 4') a user's commanding voice is put by the previous described hardware installed with a voice-recognizing module(200) or a sound card already in use and a microphone(300). For example, if a gamer wants to move eastward, he or she can put it by saying "eastward" through the microphone.
  • Fig 4 shows how the voice-recognizing network game described above and the hardwares work together.
  • the voice-recognizing network game will be operated with the connection of the voice-recognizing network game program(100), the hardware installed with a voice-recognizing module(200), a sound card already in use, and a voice-recognizing microphone(300) as the fig 4 shows.
  • This invention replaces already established keyboard based inputs with voice-recognizing based ones to enjoy network games. So it maximizes its convenience by including even people who are not good at keyboard typing and the disabled on hands in another society of the cyber world and preventing a lot of physical disorders such as wrist strain, which is caused by working too long time on keyboards.
