Abstract

PURPOSE:To allow the terminal equipment of a certain participant to acquire the right of drawing without interposition of the chairman by pushing the specified area of a tablet input device with a pen at the own terminal equipment. CONSTITUTION:When the participant pushes a certain are in a tablet input device 62 with the input pen, a tablet-on signal is sent from the device 62 to a control part 10. A CPU 67 detects the state of a drawing right acquisition flag 11 provided at one part of a RAM 19. When the flag 11 shows '0', a drawing right acquisition request signal is transmitted to the other terminal equipment for participant connected to the video conference system. At such a time, when any terminal equipment is just under acquiring the right of drawing, a BUSY is returned from that terminal equipment. After the lapse of prescribed time, the CPU 67 transmits the request signal again. When no BUSY signal is returned from the other terminal equipment even after the lapse of fixed time, the CPU 67 sets the flag 11 to '1' and the LED of a display part 12 is turned on. The participant pushing the area with the input pen executes following drawing input by using the device 62.

Next, the operation of the above-described TV conference system of the present invention will be described. FIG. 2 shows the T of the present invention shown in FIG.
FIG. 11 is an explanatory diagram for explaining control regarding transmission of a description request when a participant terminal device of the V-conference system wants to describe. First, the attendee presses a certain area of the tablet input device 62 with an input pen to request a description. When a certain area of the tablet input device 62 is pressed with the input pen, a tablet-on signal (TABON) for notifying that the tablet input device 62 has been pressed.
Signal) 21 is transmitted from the tablet input device 62 to the control unit 10. The CPU 67 of the control unit 10 uses TABO
When the N signal 21 is received, the state of the drawing right acquisition flag 11 provided in a part of the RAM 19 is detected. When the state of the drawing right acquisition flag 11 is logical "0", the drawing right acquisition request signal (REQ) 23 is transmitted to the other attendee terminal devices connected to the TV conference system via the terminal adapter. .. At this time, if one of the other attendee terminal devices is acquiring the drawing right, the BUSY signal 24 indicating that the drawing right is being acquired is returned from the attendee terminal device. The CPU 67 of the control unit 10
When the BUSY signal 24 is returned, it is judged that one of the other attendee terminal devices is acquiring the drawing right, and after a certain period of time, the drawing right acquisition request signal (REQ) 2
3 is sent out. After the drawing right acquisition request signal (REQ) 23 is transmitted, even if a certain period of time has passed, the other attendant terminal devices can perform B
If the USY signal 24 is not returned, the CP of the control unit 10
U67 determines that the drawing right is acquired, sets the state of the drawing right acquisition flag 11 provided in a part of the RAM 19 to logic "1", and instructs the input / output control unit 13 to emit light from the display unit. The diode 25 is turned on. The attendee who wishes to speak and presses a certain area of the tablet input device 62 with the input pen recognizes that his / her terminal device has acquired the drawing right by lighting the light emitting diode 25 of the display unit, and performs the subsequent drawing input. This is performed using the tablet input device 62. As a result, the input drawing and the image of the speaker are displayed on the display of each of the other attendee terminal devices.
If there is no input signal from the tablet input device for a certain period of time, the CPU 67 of the control unit 10 resets the state of the drawing right acquisition flag 11 to logic "0" and abandons the drawing right acquired. Then, the input / output control unit 13 is instructed,
The light emitting diode 25 of the display is turned off.

FIG. 3 is a response control explanatory diagram for explaining response control of a certain attendee terminal device that receives the drawing right acquisition request signal (REQ) 33 sent from another attendee terminal device. When the drawing right acquisition request signal (REQ) 33 is received via the terminal adapter, C of the control unit 10
The PU 67 detects the state of the drawing right acquisition flag 11 provided in a part of the RAM area. At this time, if the state of the drawing right acquisition flag 11 is logical "1", the self-confidence apparatus has acquired the drawing right.
BUSY signal 34 is drawn right acquisition request signal (REQ) 3
The BUSY signal 3 is sent to the attendant terminal device that sent 3
4 is sent out via the terminal adapter. On the other hand, if the state of the detected drawing right acquisition flag 11 is logical "0", no response is returned because the own device has not acquired the drawing right.

In this way, each attendee terminal device of the TV conference system of the present invention acquires the drawing right by detecting the state of the drawing right acquisition flag 11 and controlling the sending of the drawing right acquisition request signal. However, the conference of the TV conference system can proceed without the chairman's intervention.

As described in detail above, the terminal devices for each attendee of the TV conference system acquire the drawing right each other.
Since the conference of the V-conference system can proceed without the chairman's intervention, the attendees of the conference do not have to wait for input until the chairman permits it, and the conference can be advanced. In addition, the chair must be constantly monitoring whether there are any other attendees who are requesting a description, and the annoyance of having to always perform permission operations can be released, and the work of the chair can be reduced. it can. Furthermore, since each attendee's terminal device of the TV conference system can acquire the drawing right without the intervention of the chairperson, the conference can be held without selecting the chairperson.
