Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for receiving an additional service in a video display device.
- broadcasting stations transmit main service audio content, together with enhanced service data that can be used in connection with the main audio and video content or independent of the main audio and video content.
- video display devices in each home rarely directly receive broadcast signals through airwaves. Rather, the video display device of each home is connected to a broadcast receiving device such as a set-top box, and thus often reproduces uncompressed audio and video content provided by the broadcast receiving device.
- a broadcast receiving device such as a set-top box
- the broadcast reception device receives content from a server called a multichannel video programming distributor (MVD).
- the multi-channel video distributor receives a broadcast signal from a broadcast station, extracts content from the received broadcast signal, converts the content into a signal suitable for transmission, and provides the converted signal to the broadcast receiving device.
- the broadcasting station since the multi-channel video distributor may exclude extracted additional service data or add another additional service data, the broadcasting station only plays a role of providing audiovisual contents and provides broadcasting service-oriented additional services. Can not.
- the broadcast receiving apparatus also extracts main audio and video data from the signal received from the multichannel video distributor, and provides only the uncompressed audio and video data to the video display device, only an additional service under the control of the broadcast receiving device is available, No additional services can be provided. This further prevents the broadcaster from providing self-directed supplementary services.
- An object of the present invention is to provide an additional service receiving method for enabling broadcast service-driven additional service and an image display apparatus using the same.
- An additional service receiving method includes: receiving audiovisual content (AV content); Extracting first feature information from the received audiovisual content; Transmitting the extracted first feature information to a first server, and receiving, from the first server, a database including at least one of content information associated with the first feature information, additional service information, and additional service; Storing a database received from the first server in a memory; Extracting second feature information from the received audiovisual content; And searching for and obtaining one of content information, additional service information, and additional service corresponding to the extracted second feature information from the database.
- AV content audiovisual content
- Extracting first feature information from the received audiovisual content Transmitting the extracted first feature information to a first server, and receiving, from the first server, a database including at least one of content information associated with the first feature information, additional service information, and additional service
- Storing a database received from the first server in a memory Extracting second feature information from the received audiovisual content; And searching for and obtaining one of content information, additional service information, and additional service corresponding to the extracted second feature information from the
- An additional service receiving method includes: receiving audiovisual content; Extracting first feature information from the received audiovisual content; Transmitting the extracted first feature information to a first server and receiving content information corresponding to the first feature information from the first server; Extracting second feature information from the received audiovisual content; And transmitting the extracted second feature information to the first server together with the content information received from the first server, and receiving content information corresponding to the second feature information from the first server.
- Additional service receiving method the step of receiving audio-visual content; Selecting any one of a plurality of content recognition modules supporting different content recognition schemes according to a preset priority; And transmitting content identification information on the audio-visual content obtained using the selected content recognition module to a server, and receiving an additional service corresponding to the content identification information.
- a method for receiving additional service includes: setting at least one sampling parameter for extracting some samples from audiovisual content; Sampling the audiovisual content according to the set parameter to obtain a sample; and transmitting the obtained sample to a server to receive content identification information about the audiovisual content from the server.
- An image display device for receiving audio-visual content (AV content); A feature extractor for extracting first feature information from the received audiovisual content; A data transmitting / receiving unit which transmits the extracted first feature information to a first server and receives a database including at least one of content information, additional service information, and additional service associated with the first feature information from the first server; And a memory storing a database received from the first server, wherein any one of content information, additional service information, and additional service corresponding to the second feature information extracted from the audiovisual content is obtained by searching the database.
- an image display device includes: a receiver configured to receive audiovisual content; A feature extractor for extracting first feature information from the received audiovisual content; And a data transceiver configured to transmit the extracted first feature information to a first server to receive content information corresponding to the first feature information from the first server, wherein the data transceiver is extracted from the audiovisual content.
- the second feature information is transmitted to the first server together with the content information received from the first server, thereby receiving content information corresponding to the second feature information from the first server.
- an image display apparatus comprising: a receiver configured to receive audio and video content; A plurality of content recognition modules supporting different content recognition methods; A controller configured to select one of the content recognition modules according to a preset priority; And a data transceiving unit configured to transmit content identification information on the audiovisual content acquired using the selected content recognition module to a server, and receive an additional service corresponding to the content identification information.
- an image display apparatus including: a parameter setting unit configured to set at least one sampling parameter for extracting some samples from AV content; A receiver for receiving audiovisual content; A sampling unit for sampling the received audiovisual content according to the set parameter to obtain a sample; Include.
- Embodiments of the present invention enable broadcast station-led services.
- embodiments of the present invention enable broadcast station-driven alternative advertisement services, scene association information provision services, rating-based content provision services, and user characteristic-based services.
- a database composed of content information associated with currently reproduced audiovisual content may be generated in a video display device or a server to improve content recognition speed and efficiently use network bandwidth.
- the audiovisual content may be sampled and transmitted to the server according to a sampling parameter previously negotiated with the server, thereby efficiently recognizing the audiovisual content according to various content recognition schemes.
- various embodiments of the present invention enable information retrieval, chat, news retrieval, digital media download, product catalog download, and product purchase related to the main audio-visual content without inconvenient text input through the remote control.
- one embodiment of the present invention enables additional services beyond the limits of the bandwidth of the wireless channel.
