Abstract
Description
本発明の第1実施例に係るコンテンツ複製システムについて説明する。以下では、まず、第1実施例に係るシステムの概略構成について述べた後、当該システムの構成要素となるナビゲーション装置並びに第1及び第2端末の概略構成、コンテンツの選択支援方法、複製したコンテンツの伝送例及び処理フローについて順に説明する。その後、第1実施例に係る各変形例についてさらに説明する。
図1は、第1実施例に係るコンテンツ複製システムの概略構成の一例である。コンテンツ複製システムは、ナビゲーション装置1と、第1端末100と、第1サーバ150と、第2端末200と、第2サーバ250と、通信網300と、を備える。
次に、図2を参照し、ナビゲーション装置1の構成について説明する。
次に、第1端末100及び第2端末200の構成について図3を用いて説明する。図3(a)は、第1端末100の概略構成図を示し、図3(b)は、第2端末200の概略構成図を示す。第1端末100は、UI部102と、ユーザ操作解析部103と、属性情報管理部104と、近距離無線通信部105と、接続ユーザ管理部106と、広域無線通信部107と、コンテンツ再生部108と、GPS機能部109と、主制御部110と、表示部111と、を備える。第2端末200は、UI部202と、ユーザ操作解析部203と、属性情報管理部204と、近距離無線通信部205と、接続ユーザ管理部206と、広域無線通信部207と、コンテンツ再生部208と、GPS機能部209と、主制御部210と、表示部211と、を備える。なお、第1端末100の構成要素と第2端末200の構成要素とは一致するため、以下では両構成の各要素について並行して説明する。
次に、本発明の第1実施例に係るコンテンツの選択支援方法について具体的に説明する。第1実施例は、ナビゲーション装置1の表示部11に表示されたコンテンツリストCL1から任意のコンテンツをユーザ(主に、利用者B)に選択させることで、利用者Aから利用者Bへ当該コンテンツの複製を譲渡する処理について説明したものである。
図4(a)は、第1の例でユーザがコンテンツリストCL1からコンテンツAsを選択した際にナビゲーション装置1が出力する表示画面の一例を示す。
第2の例では、ナビゲーション装置1は、利用者Aと利用者Bとで相互に関連した項目をサブメニューSLに表示する。これにより、ナビゲーション装置1は、さらにユーザのコピー操作を柔軟化させ、コピー操作を容易にさせる。これについて、図6を用いて詳しく説明する。
次に、複製すべきコンテンツが指定された後のコンテンツ伝送処理の具体例を示す。図7は、コピー操作終了後に実行されるコンテンツ伝送処理を示すシーケンス図の一例である。以後では、パスワードを「PWD」と記載する。
次に、第1実施例に係るナビゲーション装置1の処理手順の具体例について説明する。図8は、ユーザ操作に伴うナビゲーション装置1の処理手順を示すフローチャートの一例である。図8に示すフローチャートは、ナビゲーション装置1が第1端末100及び第2端末200と近距離無線通信部5により通信可能な位置に存在する場合に実行される。なお、図8において、実線矢印は処理の流れを示し、破線矢印は操作による入力を表す。
第1実施例のシステム構成では、ナビゲーション装置1は、広域無線通信部7を備え、第1サーバ150及び第2サーバ250と通信網300を介して通信可能に構成されていた。これに代えて、ナビゲーション装置1は、広域無線通信部7を有しなくともよい。
第1実施例では、第1端末100と第1サーバ150、及び、第2端末200と第2サーバ250とがそれぞれ別の装置によって実現されていた。しかし、本発明が適用可能な構成は、これに限定されない。これに代えて、第1端末100及び第1サーバ150と、第2端末200及び第2サーバ250とがそれぞれ一体の装置により実現されてもよい。
第1実施例の構成に代えて、ナビゲーション装置1は、利用者A又は/及び利用者Bの保有するコンテンツをメモリに記憶してもよい。即ち、ナビゲーション装置1が第1サーバ150又は/及び第2サーバ250の機能を備えてもよい。
第1実施例では、コピー操作に係る処理の例として、利用者Aと利用者Bとの相互関連性を加味するか否かに基づき、第1の例と第2の例とをそれぞれ例示した。しかし、本発明が適用可能な方法はこれに限定されない。例えば、これに代えて、または、これに加えて、ナビゲーション装置1は、ユーザ操作に基づき、第1属性Is1に関連するサブメニューSLまたは第2属性Is2に関連するサブメニューSLを表示させてもよい。
上述の第1及び第2の例では、ナビゲーション装置1は、バッファ領域Btに関連コンテンツリストBLを表示し、複製したいコンテンツを選択させていた。しかし、本発明が適用可能な方法はこれに限定されない。
第1実施例のコンテンツ複製システムは、ナビゲーション装置1を構成要素とした。これに代えて、コンテンツ複製システムは、表示装置や入力装置を備え、かつ第1端末100や第2端末200と通信可能な他の装置(複製支援装置)を構成要素としてもよい。即ち、この場合、ユーザは、複製支援装置が表示する画面に基づきコピー操作を実行する。これによっても、本発明を好適に適用することができる。
第2実施例は、自宅にあるレコーダに対し、端末から番組予約を実行するものである。このような場合にも本発明を適用することができる。これについて図10及び図11を参照して説明する。
なお、上述した第1実施例の変形例5は、第2実施例にも同様に適用することができる。この場合、第3端末500は、関連コンテンツリストBLの抽出後、関連コンテンツリストBL中の全番組の録画指示信号をレコーダ400へ送信する。
