| 20110028211 | INFORMATION SYSTEM, INFORMATION TERMINAL, AND INFORMATION COMMUNICATION METHOD - An information terminal may include, but is not limited to: a communication unit that receives, from a first server, a first animation and control information correlated to the first animation; a display unit that displays the first animation; and a control unit that controls the display unit to stop displaying the first animation and to start to display a second animation at a predetermined time based on the control information. | 02-03-2011 |
| 20100165396 | INFORMATION COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, USER TERMINAL AND INFORMATION COMMUNICATION METHOD - An information communication system comprising a plurality of user terminals which output contents delivered via a network and accept input of comments relating to the contents, and an information communication server which receives the comments input by the user terminals and delivers the comments to a plurality of user terminals, the information communication server comprising: a classification control unit which generates a classification according to user properties of a user terminal, and assigns the classification to the user terminal; the user terminal comprising: a classification selection input unit which acquires one of a first selection and a second selection, all comments transmitted by a plurality of the user terminal are outputted in the first selection, and the comment transmitted by the user terminal assigned same classification of the user terminal is only outputted in the second selection; a comment extracting unit which extracts all the comments delivered by the information communication server as an output comment when the first selection is inputted in the classification selection input unit, and extracts the comment transmitted by the user terminal assigned the classification which is the same as the user terminal in the comments delivered by the information communication server when the second selection is inputted in the classification selection input unit; and an output unit which outputs the output comment extracted by the comment extracting unit with the contents. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100122309 | COMMENT DELIVERY SERVER, TERMINAL DEVICE, COMMENT DELIVERY METHOD, COMMENT OUTPUT METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM STORING COMMENT DELIVERY PROGRAM - There is provided a comment delivery server in a comment delivery system having: a video delivery server which delivers video data a comment delivery server which delivers comments relating to the video; and a terminal device, wherein the comment delivery server has: a conversion data storage section which stores conversion data which associates a comment targeted for conversion together with the comment obtained after the targeted comment has been converted; a receiving section which receives as comment information from the terminal device a comment and a comment attachment time which represents an elapsed video playback time at the point when the comment was attached; a determination section which refers to the conversion data storage section and determines whether or not a comment targeted for conversion is included in the comment information received by the receiving section; a comment conversion section which, when it is determined based on a determination result from the determination section that a comment targeted for conversion is included in the comment information received by the receiving section, refers to the conversion data storage section and converts the received comment into a post-conversion comment which corresponds to this comment; a comment information storage section which stores the comment information after it has been converted by the conversion section; and a comment delivery section which delivers the comment stored in the comment information storage section to the terminal device. | 05-13-2010 |
| 20100121912 | TERMINAL DEVICE, COMMENT DISTRIBUTION SERVER, COMMENT TRANSMISSION METHOD, COMMENT DISTRIBUTION METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM THAT HOUSES COMMENT DISTRIBUTION PROGRAM - The terminal device of the present invention has a list storage portion that stores content identification information that identifies content that can be uttered as a comment on moving image data as a list, an input portion that receives a data input of a selection instruction that selects a content as a comment from a user, and a transmission portion that receives an input of content identification information of a content that is selected from the list storage portion in accordance with the selection instruction that is input to the input portion for moving image data that is distributed from the moving image distribution server and transmits a moving image playback elapsed time at the point of time that the content identification information is imparted as a comment as a comment imparting time together ether with the content identification information as comment information. | 05-13-2010 |
| 20100107082 | COMMENT DELIVERY SYSTEM, TERMINAL DEVICE, COMMENT DELIVERY METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM THEREFOR - A comment delivery server associates comment contents in which an elapsed contents playback time has been set as a comment attachment time with contents identification information, and stores these as comment information. The comment delivery server reads from a comment information storage section comment information which corresponds to contents identification information received by a contents identification information receiving section, and delivers it to a terminal device. The terminal device transmits identification information for contents targeted for playback to the comment delivery server, receives comment information transmitted from the comment delivery server, and stores the received comment information. Of the comment information stored in the comment information storage section, comments to which have been assigned a comment attachment time which corresponds to an elapsed contents playback time for the contents being played back are displayed so as to be synchronized with the elapsed contents playback time of the contents being played back. | 04-29-2010 |
| 20100100904 | COMMENT DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM, COMMENT DISTRIBUTION SERVER, TERMINAL DEVICE, COMMENT DISTRIBUTION METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM - A comment distribution server includes: a first comment information storage unit that stores comment information including a comment assignment time that is a point of time when comment data is assigned shown by an elapse time from a dynamic image reproduction start time; and the comment data, and being correlated with the dynamic image data, and a comment information distribution unit that reads out a plurality of the comment information, and that distributes them to a terminal device. The terminal device includes: a dynamic image reproduction unit that receives and reproduces the dynamic image data distributed from a dynamic image distribution server; a comment information reception unit that receives the plurality of the comment information correlated with the dynamic image, from the comment distribution server; and a display unit that displays the dynamic image reproduced by the dynamic image reproduction unit, that reads out comment data correlated with a point of time shown by the comment assignment time, from the plurality of the comment information, and that displays the read out comment data along with the dynamic image. | 04-22-2010 |
| 20100093418 | ACCESS CONTROL DEVICE, ACCESS CONTROL METHOD, AND ACCESS CONTROL PROGRAM - An access control device which controls access to a server from a plurality of terminal devices includes a receiving section which receives requests from the terminal devices to access the server, a lottery section which conducts a lottery for the terminal devices making the access requests from among the access requests received by the receiving section, and a lottery result transmitting section which transmits connection destination information which is used to access the server to the terminal devices which were successful in the lottery conducted by the lottery section. | 04-15-2010 |
