first embodiment
[0034] A character provision service system in a first embodiment of the present invention has features described below.
[0035] The configuration and operation of the character provision service system in the first embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
(Entire Configuration of Character Provision System)
[0036]FIG. 1 shows the entire configuration of the character provision service system of this embodiment. The character provision service system includes a server computer 101, a user computer 102, a character data generating computer 103, and a network 104.
[0037] The server computer 101 distributes a character display / control program and character data necessary for generating characters. The server computer 101 issues and manages licenses for use of character display / control programs and character data and performs charge management.
[0038] The user computer 102 receives a program for displaying and controlling a character (hereinafter referred t...
second embodiment
[0112] A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with respect to a character provision service system in which a user can use a character display / control program and character data on a server computer 101 by accessing the program and data through a user computer 102 when necessary instead of reading the character display / control program and character data to the user computer 102 by performing the process described above according to the first embodiment. The character provision service system according to this embodiment will be described with respect to a case where the server computer 101 and the user computer 102 are connected to a network 104 at all times. However, the arrangement may alternatively be performed in which a user connects the user computer 102 to the server computer 101 when necessary.
[0113] The configuration of the server computer 101 in this embodiment is as shown in FIG. 16, for example.
[0114] As shown in FIG. 16, the server computer 101...
third embodiment
[0128] A third embodiment of the present invention will be described with respect to a character formed by using a character display / control program and character data.
[0129]FIG. 21 shows an example of a character who announces news distributed through a network. If a user selects the “text mode” among the “conversation” items in the motion modes in the catalog information shown in FIG. 11, he or she is informed of news through display of the character with letters in a balloon.
[0130] To form the corresponding character in a case where the “voice mode” is selected among the “conversation” items in the motion modes in the catalog information shown in FIG. 11, character data including data on images of a figure with basic mouth shapes corresponding to the vowels of the language in which news sentences are read and images of the figures corresponding to the opening / closing of the mouth for pronouncing consonants is required to shape the mouth of the character in synchronization with ...
