[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2013-114487 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] In recent years, various ancillary services have been provided along with voting services where voting tickets are purchased (hereinafter, simply referred to as "voting"). For example, ancillary services include a distribution service that distributes videos related to sports, and voters can vote based on the predictions of the performers who appear in the videos they have viewed.

[0005] In a distribution service, the number of videos distributed may vary depending on the sport, or no videos may be distributed at all. In this case, if the number of videos distributed is small, users may feel that the sport is not attracting attention, and may hesitate to vote for such a sport. Therefore, it is necessary to make users aware that the sport is attracting attention regardless of the number of videos distributed.

[0006] The present invention has been made in consideration of these points, and aims to make it easier for users to feel that a competition is attracting attention. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] An information processing device according to one embodiment of the present invention has an acquisition unit that acquires data of distributed videos related to a competition and prediction information indicating a user's prediction for the outcome of the competition, and a display control unit that controls the number of pieces of prediction information to be displayed on a display screen for displaying at least one of the distributed videos and the prediction information based on the number of the distributed videos to be displayed on the display screen.

[0010] <System configuration> Fig. 1 is a diagram showing an example of a system configuration of an information processing system 1 according to the present embodiment. The information processing system 1 shown in Fig. 1 includes a management device 10 and one or more information processing devices 20. The management device 10 and the information processing devices 20 are connected to each other so as to be able to communicate with each other via a network N such as the Internet, an intranet, a wireless LAN (Local Area Network), or a mobile communication network.

[0011] The management device 10 is a device used to manage a voting service that accepts votes for possible competition results in a competition in which multiple competition objects participate, that is, votes for the competition object predicted to win the competition. The competition is, for example, bicycle racing, auto racing, horse racing, boat racing, soccer, tennis, electronic sports, etc. The competition object is, for example, an athlete, a racing vehicle, a racehorse, or a racing team, etc. The voting object is an object for which a user bets a predetermined value, and is determined by a combination of a competition object predicted to win by the user from among multiple competition objects (including athletes, racing vehicles, or animals) that are candidates for the voting object, and a betting type (voting method).

[0012] The voting service provides various services in addition to accepting votes. For example, the voting service provides a service of distributing streaming videos related to competitions. The streaming videos distributed in the voting service are, for example, videos distributed in real time from a studio, and are videos showing how performers appearing in the videos predict the results of the competition, or videos providing information for predicting the results of the competition. The streaming videos distributed in the voting service may be videos of live broadcasts of competitions.

[0013] Furthermore, for example, a voting service provides a service that makes the contents of votes public, allowing users to vote while referring to the contents of votes cast by other users.

[0014] The management device 10 is configured, for example, from one or more physical servers. The management device 10 may be configured using a virtual server that operates on a hypervisor, or may be configured using a cloud server.

[0015] The information processing device 20 is a device used by a user, such as a mobile phone (including a smartphone), a tablet terminal, or a personal computer. For example, a dedicated application program (hereinafter, referred to as a "dedicated app") for providing a voting service to users is installed in the information processing device 20. Through the dedicated app, users can vote for voting targets, watch distributed videos, and view the contents of votes cast by other users.

[0016] When the information processing device 20 receives an operation to start the dedicated application, it displays a display screen of the voting service. The display screen is a display screen for displaying at least one of a distribution video related to the competition and prediction information showing predictions of other users about the competition. The prediction information is information showing voting targets for which the other users themselves wish to vote. The prediction information may include predicted odds along with the voting targets.

[0017] The information processing device 20 controls the number of pieces of predicted information to be displayed on the display screen based on the number of distributed videos to be displayed on the display screen. For example, the more the number of distributed videos is, the less the number of pieces of predicted information is displayed on the display screen, and the less the number of distributed videos is, the more the number of pieces of predicted information is displayed on the display screen.

[0018] The information processing system 1 has such a feature, and thus it is possible to reduce the variation in the amount of information displayed on the display screen between a case where the number of distributed videos is large and a case where the number of distributed videos is small. This allows the information processing system 1 to display a large amount of information for a sport where the number of distributed videos displayed on the display screen is small. As a result, the information processing system 1 can make the user feel that the sport where the distributed videos are displayed is a sport that is attracting attention, regardless of the number of distributed videos. The configurations and operations of the management device 10 and the information processing device 20 will be described in detail below.

[0019] <Hardware configuration> 2 is a diagram illustrating an example of a hardware configuration of the management device 10. The management device 10 includes a processor 11, a storage unit 12, a communication IF (Interface) 13, an input device 14, and an output device 15.

[0020] The processor 11 is, for example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit) or a GPU (Graphical Processing Unit). The storage unit 12 is a processing unit (CPU) that executes programs stored in the storage unit 12 to realize various functions.

[0021] The storage unit 12 has a storage medium such as a memory, a hard disk drive (HDD), or a solid state drive (SSD). The storage unit 12 stores a program executed by the processor 11. The storage unit 12 also stores users' predictions regarding voting targets in association with user IDs.

[0022] The communication IF 13 has a communication controller for performing wired communication or wireless communication with the information processing device 20 via the network N. The communication IF 13 notifies the processor 11 of data received from the information processing device 20. In addition, the communication IF 13 transmits data input from the processor 11 to the information processing device 20.

[0023] The input device 14 receives an input operation from, for example, an administrator of the management device 10. The input device 14 is, for example, a keyboard, a touch panel, a mouse, or a microphone. The output device 15 outputs information to, for example, the administrator of the management device 10. The output device 15 is, for example, a display, a speaker, or the like.

[0024] 3 is a diagram showing an example of a hardware configuration of the information processing device 20. The information processing device 20 includes a processor 21, a storage unit 22, a communication IF 23, an input device 24, and an output device 25.

[0025] The processor 21 is, for example, a CPU, and executes programs stored in the storage unit 22 to realize various functions.

[0026] The storage unit 22 includes storage media such as a Read Only Memory (ROM) and a Random Access Memory (RAM), etc. The storage unit 22 stores the programs executed by the processor 21.

[0027] The communication IF 23 has a communication controller for performing wired communication or wireless communication with the management device 10 via the network N. The communication IF 23 notifies the processor 21 of data received from the management device 10. In addition, the communication IF 23 transmits data input from the processor 21 to the management device 10.

[0028] The input device 24 receives an input operation from a user, for example. The input device 24 is, for example, a keyboard, a touch panel, a mouse, or a microphone. The output device 25 is, for example, a display unit and a voice output unit that output information to the user, for example. The output device 25 is, for example, a display or a speaker.

[0029] <Function block configuration> 4 is a diagram showing an example of a functional block configuration of the processor 21. The processor 21 has a reception unit 211, an acquisition unit 212, a display control unit 213, and a transmission unit 214. The processor 21 functions as the reception unit 211, the acquisition unit 212, the display control unit 213, and the transmission unit 214 by executing a program stored in the storage unit 22.

[0030] The reception unit 211 receives a user's operation. The reception unit 211 receives, for example, votes for a competition. The acquisition unit 212 acquires, from the management device 10, video data of a distributed video related to a competition and prediction information indicating a user's prediction for the result of the competition. The video data of the distributed video may include performer prediction information indicating a prediction of performers who will appear in the distributed video. For example, when the reception unit 211 receives a display operation for displaying a display screen of the voting service, the acquisition unit 212 acquires, from the management device 10, at least one of video data corresponding to the competition to be displayed on the display screen and prediction information corresponding to the competition.

[0031] The display control unit 213 controls the number of pieces of predicted information to be displayed on the display screen based on the number of distributed videos to be displayed on the display screen. Specifically, the display control unit 213 controls the number of pieces of predicted information acquired by the acquisition unit 212 based on the number of pieces of video data acquired by the acquisition unit 212.

[0032] Fig. 5 is a diagram showing a home screen that is first displayed when the dedicated application is started. As shown in Fig. 5(a), the home screen displays a list M of streaming videos related to a certain race (for example, the 6th race at Keiokaku in a bicycle race) and a list F of prediction information related to the race.

[0033] For example, the display control unit 213 displays a smaller number of pieces of predicted information as the number of distributed videos displayed on the display screen increases, and displays a larger number of pieces of predicted information as the number of distributed videos displayed on the display screen decreases. As shown in FIG. 5(b), when the number of distributed videos displayed on the display screen is equal to or greater than a reference number, the display control unit 213 displays a list M of distributed videos without displaying a list F of predicted information. The reference number is a number determined by the ratio between the screen area required to display one distributed video and the display area of ​​the information processing device 20, and is, for example, 2 or 3. By operating the display control unit 213 in this manner, when there are a number of distributed videos to the extent that the user feels that the sport corresponding to the distributed video is attracting attention, it is possible to prevent a large amount of information from being displayed, making it difficult to view.

[0034] 5(c), when the number of streaming videos displayed on the display screen is less than the reference number (for example, when there are no streaming videos), the display control unit 213 does not display the list of streaming videos M, but displays the list of prediction information F. By operating the display control unit 213 in this manner, even if the sport corresponding to the streaming videos has a small number of streaming videos, it is possible to make the user feel that the sport is attracting attention.

[0035] For example, when the user performs an operation to view a distribution video selected in the list M of distribution videos shown in Fig. 5(a) (for example, an operation of tapping an area where the distribution video is displayed), the display control unit 213 displays a video viewing screen for viewing the selected distribution video. Also, when the user performs an operation to view details of prediction information selected in the list F of prediction information shown in Fig. 5(a) (for example, an operation of tapping an area where the prediction information is displayed), the display control unit 213 displays a prediction display screen for displaying details of the selected prediction information.

[0036] Here, the reception unit 211 may receive votes for a race based on predicted information displayed on the prediction display screen. "Voting for a race based on predicted information" refers to voting for a voting target that other users predict to be highly worthy of voting. Specifically, the reception unit 211 receives votes for a race based on one or more pieces of predicted information displayed on the display screen.

[0037] FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a display screen on which predicted information is displayed. The display screen shown in FIG. 6 is a prediction display screen for displaying details of predicted information selected by a user from one or more pieces of predicted information displayed on the home screen. As shown in FIG. 6, the prediction display screen displays other users' predicted contents and a button B1 for voting for the competition. For example, when a user performs an operation of pressing the button B1, the acceptance unit 211 accepts votes for the competition based on the predicted information indicating the predictions of other users. By operating the acceptance unit 211 in this manner, voting can be easily performed.

[0038] Furthermore, the reception unit 211 may receive votes for a competition based on predicted performer information. For example, when a user performs an operation to select one distribution video from one or more distribution videos displayed on the home screen, the display control unit 213 displays a video viewing screen for displaying (playing) the selected distribution video. Although not shown, the video viewing screen is provided with a button for voting based on predicted performer information, and when a user performs an operation to press the button, the reception unit 211 receives votes for a competition based on predicted performer information indicating predictions for performers of the distribution video. The reception unit 211 operates in this manner, making it easy to vote.

[0039] The display control unit 213 may control the number of pieces of predicted information to be displayed on the display screen using a predetermined threshold. The predetermined threshold is, for example, set in advance in the information processing device 20. Specifically, when the number of distributed videos is less than the predetermined threshold, the display control unit 213 displays at least one piece of predicted information on the display screen, and when the number of distributed videos is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold, the display control unit 213 displays at least one piece of distributed video on the display screen.

[0040] When the number of distributed videos is less than a predetermined threshold, the display control unit 213 displays more pieces of predicted information on the display screen than when the number of distributed videos is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold. As an example, when the number of distributed videos is less than the predetermined threshold, the display control unit 213 displays on the display screen a number of pieces of predicted information corresponding to the difference between the number of distributed videos and the numerical value indicated by the predetermined threshold.

[0041] FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an area for displaying a distribution video or predicted information on a display screen. The home screen shown in FIG. 7 has three display areas R1, R2, and R3. For example, assume that the threshold value set in the information processing device 20 is three, and the number of video data acquired by the acquisition unit 212 is two. In this case, the display control unit 213 displays a distribution video in each of the display areas R1 and R2, and displays one piece of predicted information in the display area R3. Note that the number of pieces of predicted information displayed in the display area R3 by the display control unit 213 is not limited to one, and multiple pieces of predicted information may be displayed in the display area R3. By operating the display control unit 213 in this manner, even when the number of distribution videos is small, it is possible to make the user feel that the competition is attracting attention.

[0042] When the number of distributed videos is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold, the display control unit 213 may display a display screen in a manner that allows switching between a screen for displaying multiple distributed videos and a screen for displaying multiple pieces of predicted information. Fig. 8 is a diagram showing a display screen that allows switching between a screen for distributed videos and a screen for displaying predicted information. The display screen shown in Fig. 8(a) is a home screen.

[0043] As shown in FIG. 8(a), when the number of distributed videos is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold, the display control unit 213 displays a list M of distributed videos and a button B2 for displaying prediction information on the home screen. When the user presses the button B2, the display control unit 213 8(b) is displayed. The display screen shown in FIG. 8(b) is a prediction list screen that displays a list of prediction information, and multiple pieces of prediction information are displayed. By the display control unit 213 operating in this manner, it is possible to prevent the display screen from becoming difficult to view due to simultaneous display of the distributed videos and the prediction information. Note that, when the number of distributed videos is less than a predetermined threshold, the display control unit 213 may display the distributed videos and the prediction information simultaneously without displaying the display screen in a manner that allows switching between a screen that displays multiple distributed videos and a screen that displays multiple pieces of prediction information.

[0044] The display control unit 213 may display the predicted information according to the number of votes based on the predicted information. Specifically, the display control unit 213 preferentially displays, among a plurality of pieces of predicted information, predicted information with a relatively large number of votes based on the predicted information on the display screen. For example, the display control unit 213 displays as many pieces of predicted information as can be displayed on the display screen in descending order of the number of votes based on the predicted information. By the display control unit 213 operating in this manner, it becomes easier for the user to view the predicted information that is attracting attention.

[0045] The display control unit 213 may determine a priority order for displaying multiple distribution videos according to the period when votes based on the performer prediction information can be accepted. The period during which a distribution video is distributed includes an acceptable period during which votes based on the performer prediction information corresponding to the distribution video can be accepted, and an unacceptable period during which votes based on the performer prediction information corresponding to the distribution video cannot be accepted. The acceptable period may be a period that satisfies at least one of the period after the performer makes a prediction (after the acquisition unit 212 acquires video data including the performer prediction information) and the period from when the acceptance of votes for the competition begins to when it closes, and the unacceptable period may be a period other than the acceptable period. In this case, the display control unit 213 displays on the display screen a distribution video whose current time falls within the acceptable period in priority over a distribution video whose current time falls within the unacceptable period.

[0046] The display control unit 213, for example, displays a streaming video for which the current time falls within a voting acceptance period at a higher level, and a streaming video for which the current time falls within a voting acceptance period at a lower level. By operating in this manner, the display control unit 213 allows the user to preferentially watch streaming videos related to sports for which voting is available. The display control unit 213 may also hide streaming videos for which the current time falls within a voting acceptance period. The display control unit 213 may display information (for example, "Votes are being accepted", "Votes are not currently being accepted", etc.) together with the streaming video to identify whether votes for the sport corresponding to the streaming video are in a voting acceptance period or a voting acceptance period.

[0047] The display control unit 213 may display on the display screen a distribution video in which the current time falls within the acceptable period in preference to the predicted information, and may display on the display screen a distribution video in which the current time falls within the unacceptable period in preference to the predicted information. In the example shown in FIG. 7, when the number of pieces of video data acquired by the acquisition unit 212 is three and the current time falls within the acceptable period in each of the pieces, the display control unit 213 displays the distribution video in each of the display areas R1, R2, and R3. Also, for example, when the number of pieces of video data acquired by the acquisition unit 212 is three and the current time falls within the unacceptable period in each of the pieces, the display control unit 213 displays the predicted information in each of the display areas R1, R2, and R3. Also, for example, when the number of pieces of video data acquired by the acquisition unit 212 is two, the first video data is in the acceptable period and the second video data is in the unacceptable period, the display control unit 213 displays the first distribution video data in the display area R1, displays the predicted information in the display area R2, and displays the second distribution video data in the display area R3.

[0048] By operating the display control unit 213 in this manner, the user can preferentially view information about the events for which voting is available immediately, making it easier for the user to vote. Note that the acceptance period may be a period during which votes for the event corresponding to the distributed video are acceptable, and the non-acceptance period may be a period during which votes for the event corresponding to the distributed video are not acceptable.

[0049] <How forecast information is published> The display control unit 213 may display on the display screen the predicted information that is set to be made public to other users. A method for making predicted information public will be described below.

[0050] The display control unit 213 displays a setting screen for a user to register prediction information to be made public to other users. Specifically, after accepting a vote for a competition from a user, the display control unit 213 causes the output device 25 to display a setting screen for setting whether or not to make the contents of the vote public.

[0051] Fig. 9 is a diagram showing a schematic diagram of a setting screen. The setting screen shown in Fig. 9 is a screen displayed after a user votes for a competition, and is a screen for setting the disclosure of the votes. As shown in Fig. 9, the setting screen displays a plurality of voting contents and buttons B3 and B4 for instructing the disclosure of the voting contents. In the example shown in Fig. 9, a button for instructing the disclosure of each voting content is provided, but this is not limiting, and one button for instructing the disclosure of all voting contents may be provided.

[0052] 9, when a user performs an operation of pressing button B3, the reception unit 211 receives a disclosure instruction to make public the voting contents corresponding to button B3. When the reception unit 211 receives the disclosure instruction, the transmission unit 214 transmits, to the management device 10, disclosure instruction information indicating that the disclosure instruction has been received and prediction information indicating the voting contents corresponding to the disclosure instruction in association with each other.

[0053] Thereafter, the acquisition unit 212 acquires the predicted information associated with the disclosure instruction information from the management device 10. Then, the display control unit 213 displays the predicted information acquired by the acquisition unit 212, i.e., the predicted information corresponding to the vote for which the disclosure instruction has been accepted, on the home screen. By the display control unit 213 operating in this manner, the voting contents that the user does not want to be made public are not made public, so that the privacy of the user regarding the voting contents can be ensured.

[0054] <Processing flow of the processor 21> Fig. 10 is a flowchart showing the flow of processing by the processor 21. The flowchart shown in Fig. 10 starts when the reception unit 211 receives a display operation for displaying the display screen of the voting service (S11). The acquisition unit 212 acquires video data corresponding to the event to be displayed on the display screen and prediction information corresponding to the event from the management device 10 (S12).

[0055] The display control unit 213 controls the number of pieces of prediction information to be displayed on the display screen based on the number of distributed videos to be displayed on the display screen. The display control unit 213 determines whether the number of distributed videos indicated by the video data acquired by the acquisition unit 212 is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold (S13). When the display control unit 213 determines that the number of distributed videos is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold (YES in S13), it displays the distributed videos on the display screen (S14).

[0056] On the other hand, when the display control unit 213 determines that the number of distributed videos is less than the predetermined threshold (NO in S13), it displays more prediction information on the display screen than when the number of distributed videos is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold (S15).

[0057] <Effects of the information processing device 20> As described above, the information processing device 20 controls the number of pieces of predicted information to be displayed on the display screen based on the number of streaming videos to be displayed on the display screen. By having such a feature, the information processing device 20 can reduce the variation in the amount of information to be displayed on the display screen between a case where the number of streaming videos is large and a case where the number of streaming videos is small. This allows the information processing device 20 to easily make the user feel that the competition is attracting attention, regardless of the number of streaming videos. In particular, by displaying a large amount of predicted information for a competition with a small number of streaming videos to be displayed on the display screen, the information processing device 20 can easily make the user feel that even a competition with a small number of streaming videos is attracting attention.
