Description
The present invention relates to a digital TV voice search system and method, and more particularly, to a digital TV voice search system using a remote controller capable of recognizing and inputting a voice to a remote controller to search and execute a corresponding multimedia content or menu. It is about a method.
With the development of digital technology, broadcasting services through Broadband Convergence Network (BcN) are increasing. In particular, over the air, wired, terrestrial, cable, as well as TV banking, Internet search, etc. Digital broadcast services that can provide one-way / two-way services have attracted attention.
The current digital TV service is a form in which a user is provided with VOD or other services by operating a keypad including a button of a remote controller. Compared to a computer having a user interface through a keyboard and a mouse, digital TV has not shown any user interface other than a remote control until now. This is because the type of service through digital TV is still limited, and on the contrary, only a service type dependent on the remote controller is provided. Therefore, when various services are provided in the future, the remote controller has a limitation as an interface.
In order to overcome these limitations, a user interface for searching and executing contents based on speech recognition has been actively researched.
In other words, the conventional TV provides a button-type remote controller for user operation, but recently, by incorporating voice recognition technology into a digital TV, a user voice is uttered by selecting a content, selecting a specific menu, inputting a specific command, watching a specific channel, and the like. It can be implemented through:
However, in order to identify and execute content desired by a user through voice input, a voice recognition module that can recognize and process user spoken voice is required.
Looking at the digital TV voice search system applying the conventional voice recognition technology, the remote control or set-top box with the voice receiving means, the configuration that is equipped with a voice recognition module that can recognize and read the voice signal input through the voice receiving means. Through the above-described digital TV voice search function is implemented.
However, when the voice recognition module is mounted in the remote control or the set-top box to implement the voice search function as described above, the manufacturing cost of the device (ie, the remote control or the set-top box) provided for the digital TV service is greatly increased, which is a consumer. As a result of the burden, there is another limitation in that the user refrains from using the voice search function and finally escapes the user interface method that depends on the button method.
The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, an object of the present invention is to search for and execute digital TV content (or menu, etc.) using a remote control, high cost for voice recognition and reading in the remote control or set-top box It is to provide a digital TV voice search system and method using a remote control that can recognize the voice through the remote control and implement the selection and execution of the corresponding content or menu without the voice recognition module of the.
The object of the present invention is a remote control having a microphone for receiving a spoken voice of a user and a voice transmission module for wirelessly transmitting a voice signal input through the microphone to a set-top box; A set-top box which receives a voice signal from a voice transmitting module of the remote controller, processes the voice signal into voice data, and transmits the voice signal to the voice processing server; A voice processing server performing voice recognition on the voice data received from the set top box and transmitting information corresponding to the search word derived by the voice recognition to the set top box; And the set-top box configured to display and provide an image corresponding to the information received from the voice processing server to the TV.
In addition, the object is based on a remote control for receiving a user's spoken voice and wirelessly transmitting a voice signal, and a set-top box for receiving the voice signal from the remote control and processing it into voice data, the voice processing server is the set-top Receiving the voice data from a box; Deriving a search word by performing voice recognition on the received voice data; Extracting information corresponding to a search word derived through the speech recognition; And transmitting the extracted information to the set-top box through a digital TV voice search method using a remote controller.
According to the digital TV voice search system and method using the remote control according to the present invention, since the voice search function can be implemented without mounting an expensive voice recognition module in the set-top box and the remote control necessary for providing a digital TV service, the set-top box or the remote control It is possible to limit the increase in the cost, and accordingly, there is an excellent effect of activating the digital TV service to which the voice input method is applied out of the conventional keypad type remote controller.
