Description

[0001] APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING VOICE MESSAGE [0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for transmitting a voice message, and more particularly, to an apparatus and method for selectively transmitting a voice message that a user has uttered to a specific party.

Recently, a system for providing a voice receiving function to an IOT (Internet Of Things) apparatus and transmitting a voice message to an external counterpart to the IOT apparatus is being constructed.

When the voice message is transmitted through the IOT device, the recipient of the voice message can also be designated as a voice. However, the voice recognition process is not yet accurate due to differences in voice size, intonation, and voice frequency.

For example, if the name of 'Hong Gil-dong' is matched with the phone number of the terminal and the user calls 'Hong Gil Dong' by voice and designates the recipient of the voice message, if the voice recognition is performed correctly, The voice message to be subsequently fired by the user can be normally transmitted. However, if the voice recognition fails, the user must additionally register a voice called 'Gyeong-dong' by himself so that the voice recognition is properly performed.

Also, when the users do not correctly memorize the names of the persons to receive the voice message, or when they want to call them with aliases different from the names of the registered recipients, there is a problem that re-registering the corresponding names or aliases is troublesome have.

For example, if a person to whom a voice message is received in the name of a family member is registered, rather than calling the name of the son who is the reader of the family member, the name "son" The voice message transmission is not normally performed because it is not registered. At this time, the mother must perform a separate registration process for matching the title 'son' with the son terminal.

In particular, the present invention can be configured by combining at least any one of individual components, individual functions, or individual steps included in each embodiment.

Hereinafter, each signal referred to in the embodiments of the present invention may refer to one signal transmitted by one connection or the like, but may also mean a series of signals transmitted for the purpose of performing a specific function . That is, in each embodiment, a plurality of signals transmitted after a predetermined time interval or after receiving a response signal from the counterpart device can be represented by a single signal name for convenience.

The overall configuration of the entire communication system including the voice message transmission server 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention is as shown in FIG.

The overall communication system may include a voice message transmission server 100, a first terminal 200, a contact terminal 400, and a control terminal 300 as shown in FIG.

Here, the first terminal 200 communicates with the voice message transmission server 100 to transmit / receive various signals or information.

In particular, the first terminal 200 can receive a voice signal of a user and transmit the voice signal to the voice message transmission server 100. In this embodiment, the first terminal 200 is a terminal used for transmitting a voice message The first terminal 200 may also perform a function of receiving a voice message transmitted by the conversation partner terminal 400.

At this time, the first terminal 200 may immediately output or temporarily store the voice message received from the conversation partner terminal 400, and may output the voice message when there is a request from the user.

The first terminal 200 may also perform a function of displaying predetermined information received from the voice message transmission server 100. To this end, the first terminal 200 may have a display unit (not shown) or may control the display of information received on the external display device 201 as shown in FIG. 1 .

For example, when the first terminal 200 receives the conversation partner list from the voice message transmission server 100, the first terminal 200 can display the received conversation partner list on the display device 201 to be displayed.

The control terminal 300 controls the specific function of the first terminal 200 to operate by performing wireless communication with the first terminal 200 or transmits a command of the user through the first terminal 200 to the voice message transmission server 200. [ (100).

For example, the user can select any one of a plurality of conversation partner information included in the conversation partner list by operating the control terminal 300 while the conversation partner list is displayed. In this case, the first terminal 200 can transmit the conversation partner selection signal corresponding to the conversation partner information selected by the user to the voice message transmission server 100.

The interactive terminal 400 is a terminal for receiving a voice message transmitted by the first terminal 200 from the voice message transmission server 100 and may correspond to a mobile communication terminal such as a feature phone or a smart phone .

Similarly, the interactive terminal 400 may perform a function of transmitting a voice message just like the first terminal 200, rather than performing a function of receiving a voice message.

That is, the first terminal 200 and the interactive terminal 400 can exchange voice messages with each other via the voice message transmission server 100. However, in this embodiment, as described above, the first terminal 200 is a main body of a voice message and the conversation partner terminal 400 is a receiver of a voice message.

The voice message transmission server 100 acts as a relay for transmitting and receiving a voice message between the first terminal 200 and the conversation terminal 400. In this embodiment, the voice message transmission server 100 and the first Although the terminal 200 and the voice message transmission server 100 and the interactive terminal 400 communicate through a mobile communication network through a base station, the communication method between the devices is not limited thereto.

An example of a specific functional block of the voice message transmission server 100 is shown in FIG.

The voice message transmission server 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes a storage unit 110, a reception unit 120, a determination unit 130, a transmission unit 140, an information registration unit 150).

The storage unit 110 stores programs, data, information, and the like necessary for performing the functions of the voice message transmission server 100 and further stores new information or data generated during the function of the voice message transmission server 100 Lt; / RTI >

In particular, the conversation partner list including at least one conversation partner information is stored in the storage unit 110. The storing of the conversation partner list can be performed according to the selection or input of the user using the first terminal 200 have.

For example, the buddy list may be of the form shown in FIG.

That is, each conversation partner information included in the conversation partner list may be a form in which the respective names of the family members are matched with the telephone numbers of mobile phones of the respective family members.

The contact list stored in the storage unit 110 may be data corresponding to the first terminal 200.

For example, if there are a plurality of first terminals 200, a separate conversation list may be stored in the storage unit 110 for each first terminal 200.

The receiving unit 120 receives various signals, messages, or information from the first terminal 200. In particular, the receiving unit 120 receives a relative designated voice signal and a conversation partner selection signal from the first terminal 200 And also receives the voice message uttered by the first terminal 200 user.

Here, the relative designation voice signal is a signal transmitted by the first terminal 200 in response to the voice of the user when the first terminal 200 generates a voice for designating the conversation partner.

The relative designation voice signal is a signal transmitted by the first terminal 200 as the user selects any one of the conversation partner information included in the conversation partner list after the conversation partner list is displayed as described later.

A more detailed description thereof will be given later.

The determination unit 130 determines whether the conversation partner information corresponding to the relative designation voice signal is included in the conversation partner list when the first terminal 200 receives the relative designation voice signal.

For this, the determination unit 130 may include a voice analysis function or a voice recognition function.

Of course, the relative designation voice signal received from the first terminal 200 may be the result data analyzed by the first terminal 200 through its own voice recognition technology, but the first terminal 200 may perform its own processing The determination unit 130 of the voice message transmission server 100 analyzes the received relative designation voice signal using a voice recognition technology or the like, It is possible to perform a judgment process.

For example, when it is determined that the received relative designation voice signal is 'daughter', the determination unit 130 determines that the corresponding contact information is already registered as a result of comparison with the contact list shown in FIG. 3 (a) It can be judged.

As another example, when it is determined as 'son' as a result of analyzing the received relative designation voice signal, the determination unit 130 compares the corresponding contact information with the contact list as shown in FIG. 3 (a) It can be judged that it is not.

Further, the determination unit 130 can further determine whether the relative designated voice signal received from the first terminal 200 corresponds to the 'announcement', and a detailed description of the process will be provided later.

When the determination unit 130 determines that the conversation partner information corresponding to the relative designated voice signal is included in the conversation partner list, the transmission unit 140 transmits the conversation partner information to the conversation partner terminal 400 corresponding to the corresponding conversation partner information 1 terminal 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

For example, when the determination unit 130 determines that the received relative designated voice signal is 'daughter', the transmission unit 140 refers to the conversation partner list shown in FIG. 3 (a) to have the telephone number 010-1111-1111 And transmits the voice message received from the first terminal 200 to the conversation partner terminal 400.

If it is determined that the conversation partner information corresponding to the relative designated voice signal is not included in the conversation partner list, the transmission unit 140 transmits the conversation partner list to the first terminal 200 as a result of the determination.

For example, when the relative designated voice signal is 'son', the determination unit 130 determines that the target is not an object registered in the conversation partner list. In this case, the transmission unit 140 transmits the conversation partner list to the first terminal 200, .

Here, the conversation partner list transmitted from the transmission unit 140 to the first terminal 200 is registered in correspondence with the first terminal 200.

When the receiver 120 receives a conversation partner selection signal for selecting one of the conversation partner information included in the conversation partner list from the first terminal 200, the transmitter 140 transmits the selected conversation partner information And transmits the voice message received from the first terminal 200 to the correspondent terminal 400 corresponding to the voice message.

For example, when the user selects 'Hong Gil Dong' from the list of conversation partners displayed through the first terminal 200 using the control terminal 300, the first terminal 200 selects a conversation partner including 'Hong Gil Dong' And transmits the signal to the voice message transmission server 100. The transmission unit 140 refers to the conversation partner list of FIG. 3 (a) and transmits the conversation partner list to the conversation partner terminal 400 corresponding to 010-3333-3333, Lt; RTI ID = 0.0 > 200 < / RTI >

If the determination unit 130 determines that the corresponding designation voice signal corresponds to the 'announcement', the transmission unit 140 transmits to the conversation partner terminal 400 corresponding to all the contact information stored in the storage unit 110, 1 terminal 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

For example, if a voice is generated indicating that the other party is a 'public announcement' or a 'total announcement', and the corresponding designated voice signal is received, the transmission unit 140 transmits the voice signal to the first terminal 200 And transmits the voice message received from the first terminal 200 using the entire conversation partner information included in the conversation partner list corresponding to the conversation partner list.

The information registration unit 150 performs a function of matching and registering the conversation partner information selected by the conversation partner selection signal of the first terminal 200 and the additional voice information corresponding to the partner specified voice signal.

In the above example, since the received relative designated voice signal is 'son', the information registration unit 150 matches the additional voice information corresponding to 'son' with the telephone number 010-3333-3333.

Here, the additional voice information may be a voice signal itself corresponding to the name of 'son', or may be text extracted by analyzing a voice signal.

In matching and registering the additional voice information, the information registration unit 150 can be confirmed by the user.

For example, after the information registration unit 150 transmits an inquiry message inquiring whether or not to register the additional voice information to the first terminal 200, when the additional voice information registration request signal is received from the first terminal 200, It is possible to match and register the selected conversation partner information according to the conversation partner selection signal of the terminal 200 and the additional voice information corresponding to the relative designated voice signal.

That is, after the user of the first terminal 200 designates the other party with the name 'Son', the corresponding name is not registered in the voice message transmission server 100 and the voice message is transmitted from the voice message transmission server 100 to the conversation partner If the list is received by the first terminal 200 and displayed on the display device 201 and one of them is selected to transmit the voice message, the voice message transmission server 100 transmits 'Son' and 'Hong Gil-dong' It is confirmed that an inquiry message asking whether to register the matching is displayed on the first terminal 200 or the display device 201 or the like.

At this time, the user of the first terminal 200 can perform an operation of agreeing to the matching registration to the control terminal 300 or the first terminal 200, and accordingly, the first terminal 200 transmits an additional voice information registration request signal To the voice message transmission server (100).

On the other hand, the fact that the additional voice information is registered by the information registration unit 150 can be treated as temporary registration instead of formal registration.

At this time, the information registering unit 150 may register the number of registrations each time the additional voice information is registered.

For example, when the user of the first terminal 200 calls 'son' as a conversation partner, since the 'son' is not formally registered in the conversation partner list, the voice message transmission server 100 transmits the conversation partner list When the user of the first terminal 200 selects 'Hong Gil Dong' from the contact list, the information registration unit 150 registers 'Son' as the additional voice information with the official registration However, even if the matching registration is performed, it can be handled that the 'son' is not formally included in the conversation partner list.

In this case, when the relative designation voice signal according to the title 'Son' is received from the first terminal 200, the transmission unit 140 transmits the conversation partner list to the conversation partner list on the basis of the fact that ' The information registration unit 150 may transmit the voice message to the first terminal 200. In this case, when the user of the first terminal 200 selects 'Hong Kil Dong' again from the contact list, 'Is registered twice.

As described above, the information registering unit 150 may store the matching registration number of the same additional audio information.

The additional voice information thus registered can be used to specify a conversation partner later, or to allow the user to easily select a conversation partner.

In the case where the additional voice information registered first is used to specify a conversation partner, the transmission unit 140 described above transmits the conversation partner information corresponding to the relative designated voice signal received from the first terminal 200 to the conversation partner If it is not included in the list, conversation partner information matching the additional voice information according to the relative designation voice signal received from the first terminal 200 among the additional voice information registered by the information registering unit 150 is extracted, And can transmit the voice message received from the first terminal 200 to the conversation partner terminal 400 corresponding to the extracted conversation partner information.

For example, if additional voice information 'son' is registered in addition to the contact information matched with 'Hong Gil-dong' and '010-3333-3333' as described above, if the user of the first terminal 200 ' The voice message transmission server 100 receiving the relative designation voice signal receives the voice message from the first terminal 200 as the conversation partner terminal 400 corresponding to 010-3333-3333 matched with ' Voice messages can be transmitted.

The transmitting unit 140 transmits the voice information to the information registering unit 150 through the communication partner list transmitted from the first terminal 200. In the case where the additional voice information registered next is used to allow the user to easily select the communication partner, The conversation partner information matched with the additional voice information corresponding to the relative designated voice signal received from the first terminal 200 may be highlighted so as to be distinguished from the other conversation partner information.

For example, when the user of the first terminal 200 calls 'son' to designate a conversation partner, the transmission unit 140 matches the name 'son' with 'Hong Kil Dong' as additional voice information and is already registered , So that a conversation partner list in which the conversation partner information is highlighted can be generated and transmitted to the first terminal 200 as shown in FIG. 3 (b).

As another example, the transmitting unit 140 may compare the additional voice information according to the relative designated voice signal received from the first terminal 200 among the additional voice information registered by the information registering unit 150 with at least one conversation partner information The placement priority of the contact information in the contact list can be determined based on at least one of the number of times the contact information is received and the number of matching times.

For example, when the user of the first terminal 200 calls 'son' to designate a conversation partner, the transmission unit 140 matches the name 'son' with 'Hong Kil Dong' as additional voice information and is already registered The user can generate a conversation partner list that allows the conversation partner information to be displayed first as shown in FIG. 3 (c), and transmit the conversation partner list to the first terminal 200.

As another example, when the number of times of registration of each additional audio information is stored by the information registration unit 150, the user of the first terminal 200, for example, after receiving the relative designated audio signal according to the title ' If the conversation partner selected in the conversation partner list is 'Hong Kil-Dong' three times, and the daughter-in-law is 'two times' and 'daughter' once, the transmission unit 140 transmits 'Hong Gil Dong' Quot ;, " daughter ", and the like.

Hereinafter, a control procedure of the entire communication system including the voice message transmission server 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

First, it is assumed that the conversation partner list shown in FIG. 3 (a) is stored in the voice message transmission server 100 (step S1).

When the user utteres 'son' by voice, the first terminal 200 transmits a relative designated voice signal including a voice signal of 'son' to the voice message transmission server 100 (step S3).

The voice message transmission server 100 analyzes the relative designated sound line signal and recognizes that the name is 'son', and determines whether the name 'son' is included in the conversation partner list (step S5).

As a result of the determination, if the name 'son' is not included in the conversation partner list (step S7), the voice message transmission server 100 transmits the conversation partner list as shown in FIG. 3A to the first terminal 200 (Step S11).

The first terminal 200 performs display control of the received conversation partner list, for example, by transmitting the conversation partner list to an external display device 201 and displaying the conversation partner list (step S13).

When the user selects the conversation partner information including 'Hong Kil-Dong' in the displayed conversation partner list through the operation of the control terminal 300 (step S15), the first terminal 200 transmits the corresponding conversation partner selection signal To the voice message transmission server 100 (step S17).

The voice message transmission server 100 extracts, for example, 010-3333-3333, which is a telephone number, as information corresponding to the conversation partner information corresponding to the received conversation partner selection signal, that is, 'Hong Kil-dong' (Step S19).

Thereafter, the voice message, which is generated by the user of the first terminal 200, is transmitted to the first terminal 200 in real time or after being recorded for a preset time to the voice message transmission server 100 (step S23).

The voice message transmission server 100 transmits the voice message received from the first terminal 200 to the conversation partner terminal 400 corresponding to the selected conversation partner information (step S25) .

At this time, the voice message transmission server 100 may transmit the voice message to the conversation partner terminal 400 in the form of a push or temporarily transmit the notification message to the conversation partner terminal 400 after storing the voice message temporarily, It is also possible to transmit the voice message when the terminal 400 makes a request.

The conversation partner terminal 400 outputs the received voice message to allow the other party to hear (step S27).

On the other hand, the voice message transmission server 100 extracts additional voice information corresponding to the relative designated voice signal received in step S3 (that is, voice signal data itself or relative voice information corresponding to the relative designated voice information) Information) and the conversation partner information extracted in step S19 are matched and registered so that they can be used later (step S29).

Since the use of the registered additional audio information has been described in detail in the foregoing, the duplicate description will be omitted.
