An integrated system of Internet environment and TV broadcasting for chatting and searching of TV contents related documents

摘要

For the integration of the TV broadcasting and the internet environment, we have proposed an information searching system of the TV contents related documents on WWW. By using this system, users can retrieve information about the TV contents by selecting the areas of what they see on the TV display. Now in this paper, we propose a new chatting system, developed from above-mentioned search system, by which users can communicate with each other about the TV contents they are seeing with pointing the objects that they want to talk about. We report the constructed PC based system, and moreover, we propose a new bilateral communication system by the integration of search and chat system.
