[Figure 8] This flowchart shows an example of operation in a karaoke device according to an embodiment of the present invention. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0010] [Karaoke System] The following describes a karaoke system 100 equipped with a server device 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the karaoke system 100 according to this embodiment. As shown in Figure 1, the karaoke system 100 comprises a server device 1, one or more mobile terminals 2, and one or more karaoke devices 3, and the server device 1 is connected to the mobile terminals 2 and the karaoke devices 3 so as to be able to communicate via a network 4 such as the Internet.

[0011] In Figure 1, an example is shown in which the server device 1 is connected to two mobile terminals 2 and two karaoke devices 3 in the karaoke system 100. However, the present invention is not limited to this example, and the server device 1 may be connected to one or more mobile terminals 2, and may also be connected to one or more karaoke devices 3. [Server equipment]

[0012] The server device 1 will now be described. The server device 1 has the function of sending and receiving various data between multiple mobile terminals 2 and multiple karaoke machines 3 via the network 4. In particular, when an artist's live performance is held, the server device 1 has the function of sending information about nearby karaoke shops around the live venue to the mobile terminals 2 and sending artist information about the artist who performed the live show to the karaoke machines 3. As a result, the server device 1 has the function of providing benefits related to the purchase of tickets to users who purchased tickets for the artist's live performance using the mobile terminals 2, through the karaoke machines 3.

[0013] The server device 1 comprises a server control unit 10, a server storage unit 11, and a server communication unit 12. The server control unit 10 is configured with a CPU (Central Processing Unit), etc., and provides overall control of the server device 1. The server storage unit 11 is configured with storage media such as ROM (Read Only Memory), RAM (Random Access Memory), and HDD (Hard Disk Drive). The server communication unit 12 is an interface that enables communication with multiple mobile terminals 2 and multiple karaoke devices 3.

[0014] The server storage unit 11 stores programs and data for controlling each part and function of the server device 1, and the server control unit 10 controls each part and function by executing calculations based on the programs and data stored in the server storage unit 11.

[0015] The server storage unit 11 includes a first storage unit 15, a second storage unit 16, and a third storage unit 17. The server storage unit 11 also stores user information for each user who uses the karaoke device 3. As shown in Figure 2, the user information includes user identification information to identify the user, a password set for the user, the user's name, a push notification ID assigned to the mobile terminal 2 for sending push notifications to the user's mobile terminal 2, an email address, and the like.

[0016] The first storage unit 15 stores store installation information regarding the karaoke stores where each karaoke device 3 is installed. When a karaoke device 3 is installed and started at a karaoke store, the server device 1 may store the store installation information of the karaoke device 3 in the first storage unit 15.

[0017] For example, the first storage unit 15 has the set store installation information for each karaoke device 3. As shown in FIG. 3, each store installation information includes the store name of the karaoke store where the karaoke device 3 is installed, store identification information (store ID), store address, and device identification information (karaoke ID) that can identify the karaoke device 3, etc. Alternatively, the first storage unit 15 may associate and store the store installation information of the karaoke store with the device identification information (karaoke ID) of one or more karaoke devices 3 installed in the karaoke store for each karaoke store.

[0018] The second storage unit 16 stores the artist live information regarding the artist live and the user identification information regarding the mobile terminal 2 that purchased the ticket for the artist live in association with each other. As will be described later, when a ticket for an artist live is purchased by the mobile terminal 2, the server device 1 may receive the artist live information and the user identification information from the mobile terminal 2 and store them in the second storage unit 16.

[0019] For example, the second storage unit 16 associates and stores the artist live information and the user identification information for each ticket of the artist live purchased by the mobile terminal 2. As shown in FIG. 4, each artist live information includes the date of holding of the artist live, start time, artist name, venue address, venue name, live name, etc. Alternatively, the second storage unit 16 may associate and store the artist live information with the user identification information of one or more mobile terminals 2 that purchased the ticket for the artist live for each artist live.

[0020] The third storage unit 17 stores artist information, including special videos related to the artist. The server device 1 may obtain special videos such as event information, new release information, and live performance information from the artist or their associates for artists whose live performances have been scheduled or for whom ticket sales have begun, and store them in the third storage unit 17. For example, the third storage unit 17 has artist information for each artist who holds a live performance, and each artist information includes the artist's name, one or more special videos, etc., as shown in Figure 5.

[0021] A computer such as the server control unit 10 operates as the extraction unit 20, the first transmission unit 21, the identification unit 22, and the second transmission unit 23 by executing a program stored in the server storage unit 11.

[0022] The extraction unit 20 extracts information about karaoke establishments near the live venue from the store location information stored in the first storage unit 15 and the artist live information stored in the second storage unit 16. The extraction unit 20 extracts information about karaoke establishments near the live venue based on the date, time, venue address, etc., of the artist live information.

[0023] Specifically, the extraction unit 20 compares the venue address of the artist live information in the second storage unit 16 with the store address of the store location information in the first storage unit 15 for the target artist's live performance. It then extracts karaoke stores whose store addresses match the district and town name of the venue address as karaoke stores near the live venue. For example, the extraction unit 20 compares the venue address and the store address to determine whether they match by comparing the address information up to "XX City XX Ward XX" or "XX City XX Town".

[0024] The extraction unit 20 determines, based on the address information of the venue address of the artist live information shown in Figure 4, "XX Prefecture XX City XX Town", that the karaoke store with the store name "AAA Store" and store ID "T01" and the karaoke store with the store name "CCC Store" and store ID "T33" match in terms of the store address information. Then, for these two karaoke stores, the extraction unit 20 extracts surrounding store information including the store name, store identification information (store ID), and store address, as shown in Figure 6.

[0025] Alternatively, instead of checking for a match in address information, the extraction unit 20 may input the venue address of the artist live information in the second storage unit 16 and the store address of the store location information in the first storage unit 15 into a map application, and determine whether or not it is a karaoke store near the live venue by determining the distance and elapsed time between the two points using the map application.

[0026] The extraction unit 20 may extract information about surrounding stores and store it in the server storage unit 11 at the same time that the artist live performance information is registered in the second storage unit 16, or it may extract information about surrounding stores and store it in the server storage unit 11 at the time (date) the artist live performance is held.

[0027] The first transmission unit 21 transmits the information of nearby stores extracted by the extraction unit 20 to a mobile terminal 2 identified in the second storage unit 16 by user identification information linked to the artist live information of the artist live performance, that is, the mobile terminal 2 that purchased the ticket for the artist live performance.

[0028] Specifically, the first transmission unit 21 identifies the destination mobile terminal 2 by referring to user identification information linked to the artist live information stored in the second storage unit 16 for the target artist live performance. Then, the first transmission unit 21 sends information about karaoke establishments near the live venue, as shown in the surrounding store information, to the identified destination mobile terminal 2 via push notification or email based on the push notification ID of the user information corresponding to the user of the mobile terminal 2. For example, the first transmission unit 21 sends the surrounding store information shown in Figure 6 via push notification or the like to the mobile terminal 2 identified by the user identification information of the artist live information shown in Figure 4, and displays a recommendation screen of surrounding store information as shown in Figure 7 on the mobile terminal 2.

[0029] The first transmitting unit 21 may transmit information about nearby stores to the mobile terminal 2 at a time after the start time of the live performance of the target artist, or it may transmit information about nearby stores to the mobile terminal 2 at a time before the start time of the live performance.

[0030] The specific unit 22, in providing artist information to users participating in artist live performances, identifies the user's mobile device 2 or karaoke machine 3 as the recipient of the artist information, and also identifies the artist information to be provided.

[0031] The identification unit 22 identifies the mobile terminal 2 that transmitted the surrounding store information by the first transmission unit 21 and whose user identification information was used to log in to a karaoke machine 3 installed in a karaoke store indicated in the surrounding store information as the mobile terminal 2 that provides the artist information. The identification unit 22 also identifies the karaoke machine 3 installed in a karaoke store indicated in the surrounding store information and which was used to log in using the user identification information of the mobile terminal 2 as the karaoke machine 3 that provides the artist information.

[0032] The identification unit 22 identifies the artist information of the artist holding the live performance in question from the third storage unit 17. For the mobile terminal 2 that transmitted the surrounding store information by the first transmission unit 21, the identification unit 22 refers to the artist live performance information linked to the user identification information of the mobile terminal 2 in the second storage unit 16 and identifies the artist information of the artist shown in the artist live performance information from the third storage unit 17.

[0033] In other words, when a login process is performed on a karaoke machine 3 installed in a karaoke store based on the user identification information of the mobile terminal 2 that received the information on nearby stores, the identification unit 22 identifies the artist information from the third storage unit 17 based on the artist live information linked to the user identification information of the mobile terminal 2 in the second storage unit 16.

[0034] Specifically, this describes a case where a mobile terminal 2 identified by the user identification information shown in Figure 2 receives the nearby store information shown in Figure 6, and a login process is performed on a karaoke machine 3 with the device identification information (karaoke ID) "K001" installed in a karaoke store with the store name "AAA Store" in the nearby store information shown in Figure 6, using the user identification information of the mobile terminal 2. In this case, the identification unit 22 identifies the artist information shown in Figure 5 from the third storage unit 17 based on the artist live information linked to the user identification information of the mobile terminal 2, as shown in Figure 4, for the artist "▽▽" indicated in the artist live information.

[0035] The second transmission unit 23 transmits the artist information identified by the identification unit 22 to the karaoke machine 3, which has been logged in using the user identification information of the mobile terminal 2. The second transmission unit 23 also transmits a display instruction to the karaoke machine 3 in order to display (play) the artist information transmitted to the karaoke machine 3 so that it can be viewed on the karaoke machine 3.

[0036] Specifically, the second transmission unit 23 transmits the artist information of artist "▽▽" shown in Figure 5 to the karaoke machine 3 with the device identification information (karaoke ID) "K001" installed in the karaoke store with the store name "AAA Store" in the surrounding store information shown in Figure 6, when a login process is performed on the karaoke machine 3 using the user identification information of the user's mobile terminal 2 who participated in the artist live performance of artist "▽▽". [Mobile devices]

[0037] Next, the mobile terminal 2 will be described. The mobile terminal 2 is a device such as a smartphone or tablet, and is equipped with (installed) a ticket purchase application 35, which is a means of purchasing tickets, and a karaoke application 36, which is a means of linking with a karaoke machine. In this embodiment, in particular, the ticket purchase application 35 and the karaoke application 36 installed on the mobile terminal 2 are configured to work in cooperation with each other.

[0038] The mobile terminal 2 comprises a terminal control unit 30, a terminal storage unit 31, and a terminal communication unit 32. The terminal control unit 30 is composed of a computer such as a CPU and provides overall control of the mobile terminal 2. The terminal storage unit 31 is composed of storage media such as ROM and RAM. The terminal communication unit 32 is an interface that enables communication with the server device 1 and the karaoke device 3.

[0039] The terminal storage unit 31 stores programs and data for controlling each part and function of the mobile terminal 2, and the terminal control unit 30 controls each part and function by performing calculations based on the programs and data stored in the terminal storage unit 31. For example, the terminal storage unit 31 stores a ticket purchase program corresponding to the ticket purchase application 35 and a karaoke program corresponding to the karaoke application 36. The terminal control unit 30 executes the ticket purchase application 35 by executing the ticket purchase program and executes the karaoke application 36 by executing the karaoke program. [Ticket purchase app]

[0040] Mobile terminal 2 has the function of accepting arbitrary selection operations from the user regarding the desired artist and the desired artist's live performance via the ticket purchase application 35, and purchasing tickets for the artist's live performance according to the user's selection operations. For example, mobile terminal 2 accesses a ticket sales server (not shown) via the ticket purchase application 35 and executes the purchase of tickets for the artist's live performance according to the user's selection operations. Furthermore, once the purchase of tickets for the artist's live performance is completed via the ticket purchase application 35, mobile terminal 2 obtains information about the artist and artist's live performance for which tickets were purchased, such as the date and time of the artist's live performance, the artist's name, the venue address, the venue name, the live performance name, etc. [Karaoke app]

[0041] Mobile terminal 2 has a function to manage user identification information of the mobile terminal 2 user, singing history when using karaoke machine 3, and favorite songs, etc., via the karaoke application 36. Mobile terminal 2 also has a function to communicate with server device 1 and karaoke machine 3 via the karaoke application 36 to send and receive information on the user's use of karaoke machine 3 between server device 1 and karaoke machine 3. [Integration function between ticket purchase app and karaoke app]

[0042] The ticket purchase app 35 and the karaoke app 36 have a linking function. As part of the linking function between the ticket purchase app 35 and the karaoke app 36, when the mobile terminal 2 completes the purchase of a ticket using the ticket purchase app 35, the karaoke app 36 obtains artist live performance information related to the purchased ticket from the ticket purchase app 35. The mobile terminal 2 also transmits the obtained artist live performance information and user identification information to the server device 1 via the karaoke app 36. At this time, when the server device 1 receives the artist live performance information and user identification information from the mobile terminal 2, it links the two and stores them in the second storage unit 16.

[0043] Furthermore, as a function to link the ticket purchase app 35 and the karaoke app 36, the mobile terminal 2 may notify the user of the linking function between the ticket purchase app 35 and the karaoke app 36 when the purchase of a ticket using the ticket purchase app 35 is completed. For example, when the purchase of a ticket using the ticket purchase app 35 is completed on the mobile terminal 2, the karaoke app 36 may be automatically launched and a screen may be displayed asking whether or not the user wants to receive the benefits related to the ticket purchase.

[0044] In this case, if the user chooses to receive the benefits related to the purchase of tickets, the mobile terminal 2 transmits artist live information and user identification information to the server device 1 via the karaoke app 36, as described above. On the other hand, if the user chooses not to receive the benefits related to the purchase of tickets, the karaoke app 36 does not transmit the artist live information and user identification information to the server device 1, and therefore the server device 1 does not store the artist live information and user identification information in the second storage unit 16. [Karaoke equipment]

[0045] Next, the karaoke device 3 will be described. In addition to the function of playing songs reserved for singing by the user, the karaoke device 3 has the function of receiving and providing benefits related to the purchase of tickets for artist live performances from the server device 1.

[0046] The karaoke device 3 comprises a karaoke unit 40, a microphone 41, a speaker 42, a display device 43 such as a monitor, and a remote control device 44. The karaoke device 3 is installed in a location such as a karaoke room in a karaoke establishment.

[0047] The karaoke unit 40 is connected to a microphone 41, speaker 42, display device 43, and remote control device 44 by wire or wireless connection. The microphone 41 converts the user's singing voice into an audio signal and inputs it to the karaoke unit 40. The speaker 42 emits the user's singing voice or the performance of the song being sung based on the sound signal emitted from the karaoke unit 40. The display device 43 displays various screens based on video signals and the like from the karaoke unit 40, for example, it displays lyrics along with background video in sync with the performance of the song being sung.

[0048] The remote control device 44 is primarily composed of a touch panel. The remote control device 44 displays a GUI with various screens and operation buttons on the touch panel in an operable manner, and accepts login operations and song selection operations via the touch panel. The remote control device 44 and the karaoke unit 40 are paired via wireless communication, and various information is sent and received between the remote control device 44 and the karaoke unit 40.

[0049] The remote control device 44 transmits user identification information and other data entered by the user in response to the user's login operation to the karaoke unit 40, allowing the user to log in to the karaoke unit 3. The remote control device 44 accepts the user's search for and selection of songs to sing, and in response to the operation of the reservation button, transmits the song identification information (song ID) of the selected song to the karaoke unit 40. In addition, the login operation may be performed not only from the remote control device 44 but also from the mobile terminal 2.

[0050] The karaoke unit 40 comprises a device control unit 50, a device storage unit 51, a device communication unit 52, a performance unit 53, and an audio input / output unit 54. The device control unit 50 is configured with a CPU (Central Processing Unit), etc., and provides overall control of the karaoke device 3. The device storage unit 51 is configured with a storage medium such as ROM, RAM, HDD, etc., and stores programs and data for controlling each part and function of the karaoke device 3. The device communication unit 52 is an interface that enables communication with the server device 1 and the mobile terminal 2.

[0051] The device storage unit 51 stores programs and data for controlling each part and function of the karaoke device 3, and the device control unit 50 controls each part and function by performing calculations based on the programs and data stored in the device storage unit 51.

[0052] For example, the device storage unit 51 stores user identification information for each user of the karaoke machine 3 to identify each user. The device control unit 50 receives user identification information entered in response to the user's login operation from the remote control device 44 or mobile terminal 2, and accepts the user's login if the received user identification information matches the user identification information stored in the device storage unit 51. As a result, the user logs into the karaoke machine 3. In this case, the karaoke machine 3 transmits the logged-in user identification information and the login result to the server device 1.

[0053] Alternatively, the karaoke device 3 may transmit user identification information received from the remote control device 44 or the mobile terminal 2 to the server device 1, and if the user identification information received from the karaoke device 3 matches the user identification information stored in the server storage unit 11, the server device 1 may accept the user's login and transmit the login result to the karaoke device 3.

[0054] The performance unit 53 is configured to include a sound source such as a MIDI sound source, and is a performance means that reads the corresponding song data from the device storage unit 51 in the order in which the songs reserved in the reserved song list of the device storage unit 51 are registered, and generates a performance signal based on the song data. The performance unit 53 outputs the generated performance signal to the speaker 42 via the audio input / output unit 54.

[0055] The audio input / output unit 54 is connected to the microphone 41 and receives the singing audio signal from the user singing karaoke using the microphone 41. The audio input / output unit 54 is connected to the speaker 42 and outputs the performance signal of the song being sung and the singing audio signal of the karaoke performance to the speaker 42. The audio input / output unit 54 also includes a mixer and amplifier, etc., to mix the performance signal and the singing audio signal and amplify this mixed signal for output. The volume level of the performance signal and the singing audio signal reflects the volume setting made by the user.

[0056] When the karaoke machine 3 logs in using user identification information entered by the user, it receives artist information from the server device 1. When the karaoke machine 3 receives artist information from the server device 1, it displays the special video indicated in the artist information on the display device 43. Alternatively, when the karaoke machine 3 receives artist information from the server device 1 and also receives a command to display the said artist information, it displays the special video indicated in the artist information on the display device 43.

[0057] Furthermore, the karaoke device 3 may display a screen on the display device 43 or the remote control device 44 asking whether or not to display the received artist information on the display device 43, and if the user selects to display it, it may display the special video indicated in the artist information on the display device 43.

[0058] [Example of operation of this embodiment] Next, an example of the operation of the server device 1 of this embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart in Figure 8.

[0059] As shown in Figure 8, first, the user purchases a ticket for an artist's live performance using the ticket purchase app 35 on the mobile terminal 2 (step S1). Then, the mobile terminal 2, via the karaoke app 36 which works in conjunction with the ticket purchase app 35, transmits the artist's live performance information and the user's user identification information to the server device 1 (step S2).

[0060] Server device 1 stores artist live information and user identification information received from mobile terminal 2 in the second storage unit 16 (step S3).

[0061] On the day of the artist's live performance for which a user purchased a ticket using their mobile device 2, the server device 1 uses the extraction unit 20 to extract information about nearby karaoke establishments around the artist's live performance venue from the store location information stored in the first storage unit 15 and the artist live performance information stored in the second storage unit 16 (step S4).

[0062] Furthermore, the server device 1 transmits the information about nearby stores extracted by the extraction unit 20 to the mobile terminal 2, which is identified by the user identification information linked to the artist live information of the artist live performance in the second storage unit 16, via the first transmission unit 21 (step S5).

[0063] Furthermore, if a login process is performed on a karaoke machine 3 installed in a karaoke store in the nearby store information using the user identification information of the mobile terminal 2 that transmitted the nearby store information via the first transmission unit 21 (step S6), the server device 1 uses the identification unit 22 to identify artist information from the third storage unit 17 based on the artist live information linked to the user identification information of the mobile terminal 2 in the second storage unit 16 (step S7).

[0064] Then, the server device 1 transmits the artist information identified by the identification unit 22 to the karaoke device 3, which has been logged in using the user identification information of the mobile terminal 2, via the second transmission unit 23 (step S8).
