first embodiment

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the structure of the first embodiment of the present invention.

Still image data 12 is recorded in a silver salt region 10A of a silver salt film 10 having a magnetic recording region, which is the first recording medium, and audio data 14 around (before and after) the time of imaging is recorded in a magnetic recording region 10B, both by a conventional camera capable of magnetic recording.

In an audio data recording reproduction system of this embodiment, the still image data 12 is read out from the silver salt region 10A of the silver salt film 10 having the magnetic recording region and printed on the front surface of a photographic paper 18 by a conventional silver salt film development / printing device 16.

When the still image data 12 is printed, an audio reproducing unit 20 reproduces magnetically recorded audio data 14 from the magnetic recording region 10B of the silver salt film 10 having the magnetic recording region. The audio data 14 reproduced b...

second embodiment

In the first embodiment, the silver salt film 10 having the magnetic recording region 10B is used as a recording medium. However, even with a type in which both audio data and image data are magnetically recorded by an electronic camera or the like, the image data may be recorded on the front surface of a print sheet and the audio data, after converting it into an optically readable code, may be printed on the rear surface thereof, or in an image data unformed region of the front surface, when the data are actually printed out in accordance with the audio data recording / reproduction system.

Such a case will now be described as the second embodiment of the present invention.

FIG. 3 is a block structure diagram showing an audio data recording / reproduction system consisting of a camera recording unit 50 including an interface with a microphone or an audio output device, and capable of recording audio data, together with image data, on a recording medium such as a memory card, and a print...

Abstract

An audio data recording/reproduction system including an independent, portable camera for respectively recording still image data on a silver salt region of a film and audio data on a magnetic recording region of the film. A silver salt film developing/printing device is provided for developing the still image data recorded in the silver salt region of the film, and for printing the developed still image data on a front surface of a photographic paper as visible data. A conversion device is provided for reproducing the audio data recorded in the magnetic recording region of the film, and for converting the reproduced audio data into an optically readable code. And a recording device is provided for printing the optically readable code produced by the conversion device on a rear surface or a blank section of the front surface of the photographic paper.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION1. Field of the InventionThe present invention relates to an audio data recording / reproduction system which records and reproduces audio data such as voice data. More specifically, the present invention relates to the recording / reproduction of audio data in an optically readable format.2. Description of the Related ArtConventionally, various types of media for recording voice data, music data and the like are known. Such known media include a magnetic tape and an optical disk.However, with these media, the unit cost cannot be reduced very much even if a great amount of copies are prepared, and a large area is required to store such media.In the case where a medium on which voice is recorded has to be delivered to a person in a remote place, much time and labor can be required.In order to solve such a problem, there has been proposed a technique in which audio data is recorded on a sheet of paper in the form of image data which can be transmitted by facsimi...
