Description

  The present invention relates to a system for providing a moving image with sound accompanied by an odor and an odor information database.

  2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, a system for selling a moving image such as a movie to a person by evaporating a kind of fragrance according to the scene in synchronization with the reproduction thereof has been sold.

  As for the fragrance, a plurality of types of fragrance are prepared in advance according to the scene of the moving image with sound, vaporized according to the scene, and supplied to the vicinity of the human nose.

  In another system, dozens of fragrances are provided. The scent uses the fact that people can feel various scents by mixing different scents at a predetermined ratio, so that the desired scent can be obtained according to the video scene with sound. One or a plurality of fragrances can be generated and mixed at the same time to provide a person with an odor more than the kind of the prepared fragrance (see Non-Patent Document 1, for example).

  There is no formula for which fragrance and what fragrance is mixed, and there is no formalization, and it is often sought exclusively by experience. There is also a method of determining using an analysis method typified by a neural network. The fragrances are made by mixing basic fragrances and fragrances and making new ones. When the mixing ratio is known, the same fragrance can be easily duplicated, so the mixing ratio is often kept secret.

  Whether the odor has an original odor is still the subject of research. In addition, as for the fragrance, its components are generally not disclosed. Moreover, there are many fragrance | flavors produced | generated from the natural product, and it is difficult to specify the component scientifically. In other words, the definition of odor is considered very difficult.

  The sense and taste of olfaction varies greatly from individual to individual, making it difficult to industrialize odor media. This is because a fragrance preferred for a person is not a preferred fragrance for all.

  Many kinds of fragrances are sold in containers such as bottles for odor regenerating devices, and users can add them to generate odors that could not be generated before.

  The method of releasing the fragrance into the air is a method of heating the fragrance into a vapor, a method of taking out the fragrance vapor present on the liquid surface of the fragrance in a bottle, or making the fragrance fine particles based on an inkjet method, There is a way to vaporize in the air.

  Patent Document 1 and Non-Patent Document 1 describe an odor generating apparatus including a database of flavor composition information and preferences and an information providing system therefor via the Internet. However, many people design and use fragrances with various physical properties according to their tastes, and each fragrance is necessary to make fragrances act on people in various situations and principles. When the device released into the air changes, there is a problem that it is impossible to act on humans at the correct concentration.

  Since an image is generally recognized by a person through three types of color vision cells, its display device and information transmission are also possible using the three primary colors. Hearing is a temporal change in sound pressure transmitted through the air, and its information transmission and playback methods are easy. However, it is said that olfaction has no odor generally called the original odor or there are hundreds of types.

  For this reason, in order to generate various odors, it is necessary to prepare and provide various fragrances. However, in reality, the number of odors required for one movie is 20 or less, and it is always a few. Preparing hundred perfumes is wasteful. Unless a very large number of fragrances are prepared, it cannot function as a universal odor regenerating device, but it is also difficult to prepare fragrances according to the number.

  In addition, there are individual differences in the taste of smell, and it is important that the person who uses it can arbitrarily choose the smell. Furthermore, it is practically difficult for vendors to formulate, develop and distribute fragrances for various tastes, which has been an obstacle to the spread of odor regenerating devices.

  At the same time, various devices for releasing fragrance into the air have been devised. Depending on the type, the efficiency and conditions for releasing each fragrance change. Therefore, in order to record and sell odor information on a medium such as a DVD, the information providing method that supports only the aerial release device for a specific fragrance is widely used. I don't know.

It is a figure explaining the basic component of the present invention. It is a figure explaining the flow of information at the time of analyzing the control information of a preparation part in an odor reproduction | regeneration part. It is a figure explaining the algorithm which judges the presence or absence of a suitable fragrance pack in an odor reproduction | regeneration part. It is a figure explaining delivery of the whole information of the present invention. It is a figure which shows an example of the discharge | release data of the fragrance | flavor from the fragrance | flavor pack linked | related with respect to the specific event in odor media.

[First Embodiment]
An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In the present invention, a moving image with sound is currently being played back via a public communication line such as a DVD or the Internet, and a predetermined odor is defined in advance for each scene or event of the moving image with sound. This is a system that provides a sense of presence and production by smell.

  Although not shown in FIG. 1, a personal computer (PC) for reproducing and displaying the sound and image of the moving image media with sound is provided.

  The moving image media with sound 11 with a scent is, for example, a movie DVD, and includes “scent designation information” that is information about which scent is reproduced in which scene corresponding to the movie content. The “scent designation information” may be recorded in advance on the DVD, or may be separately obtained and stored in a PC via the Internet.

  In addition, the recording method of odor may be described by a method of directly specifying odor about what kind of odor, or by specifying a fragrance pack containing a specific fragrance, as a result Smell may be specified (smell designation information).

(Odor intensity)
The specification information of the odor or fragrance described above specifies the intensity of the odor during reproduction. The intensity of the recorded odor must be such that the ratio of the relative concentrations of the different fragrances released in different scenes does not change even if the fragrance release means is changed.

  Even if the type or principle of the fragrance air release means 12 is changed, it is necessary that the fragrance air release means 12 is not affected. For example, it is the concentration in the air at the position of the human nose 13. The present invention is characterized in that the moving image media with sound 11 is described in a concentration that is the amount of action on humans, thereby standardizing the form of providing odor information to the media. In other words, the media does not request that information on the fragrance air release means 12 be included.

(Description of human actions on the media)
In the fragrance air release means identification information input device 14, the operator may input the identification information of the fragrance air release means 12 from a PC or the like, or by operating a button of the blending unit 15.

(Automation of information acquisition)
If the fragrance | air_fragment | air_releasing | release means 12 differs, it will be differently released with the fragrance | flavor of a fragrance | flavor pack, and will provide the viewer with the unpredictable fragrance | flavor density | concentration. When actually operating, for example, a system that reliably obtains, for example, electrical signal information that is automatically obtained when the perfume air release means 12 is connected to the preparation unit 15 is naturally desirable. Moreover, in FIG. 1, although the vaporization part 18 and the fragrance | flavor air discharge | release means 12 are comprised separately, the vaporization part 18 fragrance | air_fragrance discharge | release means 12 is good also as integral. Moreover, it is desirable that an RF-ID tag is attached to the fragrance pack, and the identification information is acquired in a non-contact manner.

(Combination of perfume pack)
Here, the blending unit 15 capable of setting a plurality of fragrance packs has four kinds of fragrance packs 16a to 16d. One fragrance pack may have a plurality of types of fragrances, and each fragrance pack may work as an independent fragrance pack. In this case, it is assumed that a plurality of fragrance packs are provided.

  The fragrance | flavor from each fragrance | flavor pack 16a-16d is sent to the vaporization part 18 through the flow control valves 17a-17d, is vaporized, and is sent to the fragrance | flavor air discharge | release means 12.

  The odor reproduction device control unit 19 accesses the odor information database system via the public communication means 21 for the odor obtained from the moving image media with sound 11, and from what fragrance pack, at what timing and how much fragrance. Obtain control information, such as whether or not to provide after vaporization. The odor information database system includes a fragrance pack identification information database 22a and a fragrance air release means identification information database 22b. The quantity of the fragrance | flavor vaporized by the vaporization part 18 is adjusted by control of the flow control valves 17a-17d. For example, the perfume packs 16a to 16d are identified by a method in which the perfume packs 16a and 16d are electronically and automatically transmitted to the blending unit 15.

  In this embodiment, the flow rate adjusting valves 17a to 17d are described as valves for adjusting the flow rate of the fragrance that is a liquid, but when the fragrance is already vaporized from the fragrance back 16a to 16d, The vaporizing unit 18 is unnecessary, and the absolute amount of the air flow rate including the fragrance supplied from the fragrance packs 16a to 16d may be controlled.

  In the description of the present embodiment, the vaporization unit 18 is configured by a heating and outside air intake mechanism (not shown). Although it heats temporarily, it dilutes with external air and it avoids that a fragrance | flavor coagulate | solidifies by the fall of a saturated vapor pressure in the flow path to the fragrance | flavor air discharge | release means 12.

  The present invention does not exclude that the vaporizing unit 18 is performed at the scent discharge port 20. In this case, a discharge mechanism by droplet formation using a surface acoustic wave element utilizing an ultrasonic flow action is desirable. If a heating mechanism is used, some fragrances contain alcohol, which can cause burns when ignited.

  At the same time, not only the variety of fragrances but also the playback environment of video media and video media with scented sound, from public places such as movie theaters, to use with headsets in private houses or private rooms Various forms are envisaged. That is, it is possible to realize an environment in which a fragrance air release device depending on a difference in the environment in which the fragrance is reproduced can be distributed and applied.

  The perfume air release device has different boiling points when the perfume is liquid, or the concentration of each perfume acting on the person depending on the direct use of vapor near the perfume liquid surface for release. In addition, the operation of the vaporizer must be changed depending on whether the fragrance is released from a close distance of the person's nose or when the fragrance that has been vaporized is applied to the person by a method generally called an air cannon.

  That is, the fragrance has different physical properties, and the concentration at the time of acting on a person changes according to the type of the fragrance air release device. Therefore, when reproducing | regenerating, it is necessary for the relationship of both the information of a fragrance | flavor and a reproduction | regeneration apparatus (apparatus which discharge | releases a fragrance | flavor in the air) to be known. Also, the optimality at the time of reproducing a certain odor is rarely perfect, and it is desirable to show the system user about the degree of compatibility.

  Specifically, the case where the information on the fragrance air release device is used is a case where the amount of heating when vaporizing a fragrance having a low boiling point needs to be relatively small when the fragrance is heated and vaporized and provided to a person. Is mentioned. Moreover, when vaporizing a fragrance | flavor by an inkjet system, the operation parameter according to physical property values, such as a viscosity of a fragrance | flavor, is required, and the case where it is necessary to tell that it cannot be used depending on the case is mentioned.

  Therefore, from the odor information database system via the public communication means 21, the information on the obtained fragrance packs 16a to 16d and the operation control information corresponding to the fragrance packs 16a to 16d of the fragrance air release means 12 to be used are described above. The parameters for controlling the operation amount of the flow rate control valves 17a to 17d and the amount of gas containing the fragrance sent from the fragrance packs 16a to 16d are determined, and the blending unit 15 operates.

  The flow of information is organized in FIG. The public communication means 21 that transmits and receives information by connecting to the odor information database system is typically the Internet. The blending unit 15 (or the odor reproducing device control unit 19) identifies the fragrance air release means identifying the type and type of the fragrance air release means 12 in addition to the odor specification information in order to reproduce the odor specified by the media. The information and the identification information of the fragrance pack are obtained, and the blending unit control information for controlling the blending unit 15 is obtained.

  In the case of the apparatus shown in FIG. 1, the blending unit control information is a data array of the opening ratios of the flow rate control valves 17a to 17d corresponding to each fragrance pack according to the time of the reproduction process of the moving image with sound.

<When there is no fragrance pack>
The operation of the present system when the blending unit 15 does not hold the fragrance pack directly associated with the odor designation information corresponding to the moving image media with audio 11 will be described using FIG. 1 continuously.

  When it is revealed by the information transmission to the odor information database system via the public communication means 21 that the fragrance packs 16a to 16d corresponding to the odor designation information are not any of the identification information ID1 to ID4, the odor information The database system presents the level of reproduction of the approximate odor that can be reproduced using the usable fragrance packs 16a to 16d via the public communication means 21, and the reproduction with odor of the moving image media with sound 11 is performed. It is effective to use an approximate odor.

  It is well known that research on odor sensors such as QCM has been conducted on a method of expressing different odors in a multidimensional space and expressing their mutual distance as odor similarity. In this method, two odors are measured by, for example, eight types of sensors, responses of the eight types of sensors are displayed in an eight-dimensional section, and the distances of the odors in the eight-dimensional space are displayed as odor similarity.

(Candidate proposed multidimensional parameters)
In this way, in the odor information database system, the fragrance pack identification information database 22a records the position in the multidimensional space for the odor that each fragrance pack reproduces, and the multidimensional space for the necessary fragrance pack. It is possible to output the distance inside as a numerical value.

(Specific event)
It is desirable that the scent designation information corresponds to a scent or a fragrance for each person or event appearing in the moving image with sound. It is actually necessary to deliberately select and change specific events, especially those with personality, because their preferences vary greatly.

  The odor information database system preferably has a function of presenting a target to be selected by the operator for a specific event. By presenting a large number of odor types for specific events by unspecified fragrance designers, it becomes possible to make odor selection more diverse.

  FIGS. 5A to 5D are charts showing the change in concentration of the fragrance packs 16a to 16d at the positions where the fragrances act on the person with the time as the horizontal axis. Here, the scent designation information is represented by the perfume pack identification information itself.

  Instead of being recorded by the identification numbers of the specific fragrance packs 16a to 16d as described above, the odor designation information may be defined for various odors and recorded on moving image media.

(Specific event)
The scent designation information attached to the narrative moving image with sound will be further described with reference to FIGS. For simplicity, fragrance packs 16a-16d are used. The fragrance pack 16a is a fragrance pack that supplies fragrance to a part of the scene where the main character (one of the specific events) appears. The fragrance pack 16b conforms to the main character (one of specific events), and the fragrance pack 16c is for indicating the odor of a fire scene, for example. The fragrance pack 16d is a fragrance pack that is operated with respect to the smell indicating the forest.

  In the present invention, there is a format in which the corresponding odor is explicitly recorded in response to a specific event such as a person or phenomenon appearing in the moving image media, and the moving image information with sound without the odor designation information is also recorded. It is also possible to analyze and provide odor designation information corresponding to a specific event prior to the reproduction.

  In the present invention, as described above, when the fragrance used for a specific event corresponds, the operator can change the fragrance pack that supplies the fragrance when generating the odor corresponding to the specific event. Become. The taste of scent varies greatly depending on the person, and it is desirable to set the scent intensity and its type in advance.

  When a scent is reproduced for a video with sound with a story, it is possible to select the gender of the viewer and the main character to which emotions should be transferred. In general, since the smell cannot be felt, it is required to change the fragrance to be released depending on which personality the emotion is transferred to when playing a video with narrative audio. .

  As described above, the moving image with sound has a plurality of odor designation information for a specific event that is image information indicating one predetermined event, and the operator can select one of the plurality of odor designation information according to gender or preference. It is desirable that one or a plurality of odor designation information is selected from the above, and the fragrance to be released can be changed.

  Since the preferred fragrance varies greatly depending on gender, it is desirable to propose a plurality of fragrance pack candidates and combinations of fragrance packs to be used for moving image media. In particular, information on the characters to be sent to the fragrance pack proposal means via the public communication means is simultaneously transmitted to the fragrance pack proposal means, and the odor information database system uses the information to propose a fragrance pack. It is desirable to make a selection.

(In case of shortage)
It is known that scents can be made by combining different scents. The present invention only needs to provide a blending ratio that reproduces the scent desired by the moving image media with audio 11 based on the fragrance database collected through the public communication means 21. The flowchart in that case is shown in FIG.

  The odor reproduction device control unit 19 first obtains odor or fragrance designation information from the moving image media with audio 11 and also sets installed fragrance pack identification information and antenna emission means identification information from the odor information database system via the public communication means 21. Obtain (Step A1).

  Next, based on the obtained information, it is determined whether there is a fragrance pack necessary for odor reproduction (step A2), and if there is a fragrance pack necessary for odor reproduction, odor reproduction is started (step A3). If it is determined in step A2 that there is no fragrance pack necessary for odor regeneration, it is determined whether or not the scent specified by another installed fragrance pack can be produced (step A4), and the other fragrance pack is determined. If the odor specified in (1) can be produced, the degree of adaptation is calculated and presented using the public communication network (step A5). Further, based on this presentation, it is determined whether or not it can be reproduced with another installed fragrance pack, and if it can be reproduced, the process proceeds to step A3 to start odor reproduction. If it is determined in step A4 that the other installed fragrance pack cannot produce the specified odor, or if it is determined in step A6 that the other fragrance pack installed cannot be reproduced. Then, the missing fragrance pack information is displayed (step A7).

(Information flow in this system)
The flow of information between the mechanisms in the present invention is shown in FIG.

  A fragrance is a compound of a large number of chemical substances, and it is difficult to accurately grasp the characteristics even if chemical analysis is performed. In addition, the recording and expression of scents differ greatly from other audiovisual media in that they receive differently depending on the person.

  Therefore, the present invention provides a system that allows various fragrance packs to be distributed and applied by providing an environment in which fragrance pack information can be registered by unspecified participants on public communication means, particularly on the Internet. .

  At the same time, not only the variety of fragrances but also the playback environment of video media and video media with scented sound, from public places such as movie theaters, to use with headsets in private houses or private rooms Various forms are envisaged. That is, it is possible to realize an environment in which a fragrance air release device depending on a difference in the environment in which the fragrance is reproduced can be distributed and applied.

  The perfume air release device has different boiling points when the perfume is liquid, or the concentration of each perfume acting on the person depending on the direct use of vapor near the perfume liquid surface for release. In addition, the operation of the vaporizer must be changed depending on whether the fragrance is released from a close distance of the person's nose or when the fragrance that has been vaporized is applied to the person by a method generally called an air cannon.

  That is, the fragrance has different physical properties, and the concentration at the time of acting on a person changes according to the type of the fragrance air release device. Therefore, when reproducing | regenerating, it is necessary for the relationship of both the information of a fragrance | flavor and a reproduction | regeneration apparatus (apparatus which discharge | releases a fragrance | air in the air) to be known. Also, the optimality at the time of reproducing a certain odor is rarely perfect, and it is desirable to show the system user about the degree of compatibility.
