Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] In view of such a situation, an object of the present invention is to provide a system that can accumulate the communication performed via a terminal used by multiple users and bind the communication history into a book at a predetermined timing.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0005] To solve the above problems, the panel communication bookbinding system of the present invention is a system in which a service provider server and a communication panel terminal send and receive data via a network, wherein each communication panel terminal or each terminal in the same group is assigned a unique account that can receive services from the service provider server, and the service provider server stores message content from one or more users to the same communication panel terminal or communication panel terminals in the same group, along with date and time information, and generates print data including a series of message contents based on the elapsed time of a predetermined period, a predetermined date, or the amount of accumulated message content. By generating printable data containing message content for a communication panel terminal, the communication history between users using the same communication panel terminal can be materialized through binding based on the printable data, thereby revitalizing communication between users. Here, the printable data can include not only message content but also information from other IoT (Internet of Things) devices and IoT sensors connected to the communication panel terminal of the present invention via a network. For example, the communication panel terminal of the present invention can receive data from IoT devices and IoT sensors, such as lock and unlock information of an IoT lock, shared information (such as granting unlocking rights to a guest's friend for a home party), or information about whether it was a day with very high temperature and humidity, or a day with very high carbon dioxide concentration. This data can be stored along with date and time information, similar to message content, and included in the printable data. This information can be printed even without text, for example, by changing the background color. Furthermore, the number of times external devices are used and the usage time can be aggregated from IoT sensor information and included in the printable data. The communication panel terminal is preferably a device that is fixed to a wall or other surface in a room and allows communication through a wide range of operations such as touch operation and voice, but it may also be a portable terminal.

[0006] In the panel communication bookbinding system of the present invention, it is preferable that the communication panel terminals are associated with an account for the message content of communications made by a pre-registered user through the same communication panel terminal or communication panel terminals of the same group. By linking accounts to message content from communications initiated by pre-registered users, it becomes possible to manage message content for each account on a terminal assigned by the service provider server.

[0007] In the panel communication bookbinding system of the present invention, it is preferable that the service provider server transmits event message data to the communication panel terminal in accordance with the event notification information associated with the account. Event message data refers to the received message content received from the service provider server that, in response to event notification information such as the 24 solar terms (spring equinox, autumn equinox, summer solstice, winter solstice), April Fool's Day, national holidays, the user's birthday, the terminal's initial operating date, and anniversaries pre-registered by the user, service administrator, or service provider, sends messages appropriate to the characteristics of the event, such as "Happy Birthday!", to the terminal and displays them on the panel of the communication panel terminal.

[0008] The panel communication bookbinding system of the present invention preferably comprises a communication panel terminal with means 1A) to 1E) and a service provision server with means 2A) and 2B). 1) Communication panel terminal 1A) A user information registration method that allows multiple users to register for use and enables communication between registered users through the same communication panel terminal. 1B) A terminal configuration means for inputting terminal configuration data for a communication panel terminal. 1C) A content input means for entering message content. 1D) A data transmission and reception means that sends registered user information, terminal configuration data, and message content to a service provider server, and receives received message content from the service provider server. 1E) Content display means for displaying message content and received message content on a panel surface. 2) Service provider server 2A) A storage means for storing user information, terminal setting data, message content, and received message content, along with date and time information, for each account. 2B) For each account, after the expiration of a specified period, on the specified date or message A print data generation means that automatically edits stored message content and received message content based on the amount of content accumulated, and generates print data.

[0009] With the above configuration, communication between users becomes materialized unconsciously, allowing them to share memories and deepen their communication. Terminal configuration data includes, separately from the unique account assigned to the terminal, the account name of the panel terminal used by the user (associated with the unique account), the terminal's network information (address information for the wireless communication environment), and the address information where the communication panel terminal is installed (weather information is displayed on the panel based on the registered address). The address information where the communication panel terminal is installed can be registered manually by the user, or it can be registered using latitude and longitude information from the Global Positioning System (GPS), network location using IP addresses or Wi-Fi® access point names, and physical location in buildings, etc. Message content refers to message content entered by operating a communication panel terminal, while received message content refers to message content received from terminals other than communication panel terminals, such as smartphones, or from service provider servers. The passage of a specified period may be, for example, one year after the start of use of the communication panel terminal, and the specified date may be, for example, the user's birthday or anniversary. Furthermore, the amount of accumulated content may be the amount of data accumulated for the content, or the amount of pages accumulated when it is compiled into a book. The print data generated by the print data generation means may include content summaries displayed in tables, graphs, maps, etc. This allows, for example, a family to compile the words they spoke over a year, display frequently used words in an easy-to-understand diagram, and include it in a book.

[0010] In the panel communication bookbinding system of the present invention, it is preferable that the service provision server further comprises a data manual editing means that allows the automatically edited print data to be edited manually. Users can access the service server using, for example, their personal PC, smartphone, or tablet, and manually edit the automatically edited print data using manual data editing tools. Alternatively, a dedicated terminal for editing print data may be used in addition to the above-mentioned devices. Manual editing is not limited to a single instance. That is, it is possible to manually edit automatically edited print data, and then further edit it manually afterward. By allowing users to customize the information included in a book, it becomes possible to create a more original book that is free of unnecessary information for the user.

[0011] In the panel communication bookbinding system of the present invention, it is preferable that the print data generation means further edits terminal setting data and generates print data. When generating print data, by editing not only message content and received message content but also terminal setting data, it becomes possible to include, for example, location information of the communication panel terminal in the print data.

[0012] In the panel communication bookbinding system of the present invention, the communication panel terminal further comprises a group setting means for setting the group to which registered users belong, and a group switching means for switching to a group setting that suits the user using the communication panel terminal, and it is preferable that group identification information is attached to the data transmitted and received between the service provision server and the communication panel terminal. With the above configuration, multiple groups can jointly use a single communication panel terminal, and the communication history of each group can be output as printed data, thereby revitalizing communication within the group. By attaching group identification information to the data transmitted and received between the service server and the communication panel terminal, 2A) the storage means can store each piece of information for each group, and 2B) the print data generation means can generate print data for each group.

[0013] The panel communication bookbinding system of the present invention further comprises a service provision server and a client terminal that sends and receives data via a network, and preferably the client terminal is equipped with remote control means for remotely operating a communication panel terminal via the service provision server. By remotely operating the communication panel terminal with the remote operation means provided in the client terminal, more convenient use is possible. Specifically, by installing an application on a smartphone, tablet terminal, etc., the remote operation means can be used. The specific content of the remote operation widely includes operations performed on the communication panel terminal such as registration of user information.

[0014] In the panel communication bookbinding system of the present invention, it is preferable that the service - providing server further includes a bookbinding means for binding data into a book based on print data. By providing the bookbinding means, it becomes possible to perform bookbinding not only using print data but also using data other than print data. Although the above - mentioned print data is generated differently for each user or group using it, for example, when bookbinding, common specifications for all users using the service may be applied, such as when the size of the book to be bound is constant. In this way, when predetermined data is applied, the bookbinding means can perform bookbinding using not only print data but also data other than such print data.

[0015] In the panel communication bookbinding system of the present invention, it is preferable that the service - providing server further includes a means for sending the book bound by the bookbinding means to a book delivery destination associated with an account. Here, the book delivery destination refers to information regarding the name and address. By providing a means for sending to the book delivery destination, for example, it becomes easy to provide services such as concluding a subscription - type contract in which a fee is paid as a usage right for a certain period between a service provider and a user, and the book being automatically sent to the registered user's address. Also, for example, by setting the book delivery destination to grandparents, the book arrives at the grandparents' house at the time set by the user on a monthly basis for one year, and a book of memory records can be presented. Also, the sending means may identify the book sending destination by using the terminal setting data in the terminal setting means. As a result, the user can receive the book at the installation location of the communication panel terminal without separately registering the book sending destination, and it becomes possible for the user to be bound into a book and receive the book unconsciously. Furthermore, since the book is sent to the installation location of the communication panel terminal, it can be expected that users who want to view the book will gather at the installation location, and communication among users will be more activated. Such an effect of activating communication between users by making the installation location of the terminal and the book sending destination the same is not possessed by the mail publishing system etc. of Patent Document 1.

[0016] In the panel communication binding system of the present invention, in the generation of print data, it is preferable that the generated data includes data related to the paper type or binding. By including data related to the paper type or binding in the generated data, a book with high design quality can be produced. In this specification, the book is not limited to a bundle of multiple sheets of paper, and may be, for example, printed on a single large sheet of paper.

[0017] In the panel communication binding system of the present invention, the message content preferably includes character data or emoji data input by selecting characters or patterns displayed on the panel surface of the communication panel terminal, handwritten data drawn by touching the panel surface of the communication panel terminal, character data or emoji data obtained by converting the handwritten data into text data by character recognition, or voice data input by microphone means mounted on the communication panel terminal. Also, the message content may include still images or moving images. Regarding voice data and video data, for example, a two-dimensional code may be displayed in the book, and a method may be used in which a smartphone uses its camera means to read and play the two-dimensional code using a smartphone application. For handwritten data, a configuration utilizing a platform for character and handwriting recognition may be used.

[0018] In the panel communication bookbinding system of the present invention, when message content is entered into the communication panel terminal via touch input on the panel surface, the user may be prompted to perform an operation to identify the inputting user before the content is entered, or the user entering the content via touch may be identified from the message content itself. In the case of pen input on the panel surface, the user who entered the content can also be identified using an identification ID associated with the pen. With the above configuration, it becomes easy to identify who wrote a message and reflect that in the printed data. In particular, when using an identification ID associated with a digital stylus pen, the pen's identification ID can also act as a key for group use, making group settings and group switching operations easier on a single communication panel terminal. As a method for identifying the user who entered the content, the user may be identified before, during, or after the input process by using Near Field Communication (NFC), Bluetooth®, or Wi-Fi on the client device such as a digital stylus pen or smartphone used by the user. Alternatively, the user may be identified by location information using GPS.

[0019] In the panel communication bookbinding system of the present invention, it is preferable that the print data includes data relating to page layout, font, character size, or spacing between messages. By including data relating to page layout, etc., in the print data, the layout can be automatically adjusted according to the amount of messages, for example, or manually adjusted according to the user's preferences, making it possible to generate print data that is highly designed and meets the user's needs. [Effects of the Invention]

[0020] The panel communication bookbinding system of the present invention has the effect of accumulating communication between users on a terminal that is installed in a specific location, such as an electronic whiteboard, and used jointly by multiple users, and automatically turning that communication into a book. In a society where digitalization is advancing, materializing the history of communication in the analog form of a book has the effect of allowing users to look back together on memories that they were not even aware of. It also has the effect of consolidating family information that is scattered digitally into one place. Furthermore, while digital information does not allow one to feel the amount of time spent with family or the quantity of memories, by creating a book and accumulating it, one can visually feel the memories with family. In addition, if the book is sent to the location where the communication panel terminal is installed, users will have to go to the installation location to view the book, which encourages reunions between users and is expected to deepen their communication as a result.

[0022] Hereinafter, an example of an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. It should be noted that the scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments or illustrated examples, and numerous modifications and variations are possible. [Example 1]

[0023] Figure 1 shows a functional block diagram of the panel communication bookbinding system of Embodiment 1. As shown in Figure 1, the panel communication bookbinding system 100 is a system in which a service provision server 20 used by the service provider 2 and a communication panel terminal 10 used by the user 1 send and receive data via the Internet 4.

[0024] The communication panel terminal 10 includes a user information registration means 11, a terminal setting means 12, a content input means 13, a data transmission and reception means 14, and a content display means 15. The user information registration means 11 allows multiple users to register for use, enabling communication between registered users through the same communication panel terminal 10. The terminal setting means 12 inputs terminal setting data for the communication panel terminal 10, and the content input means 13 inputs operation message content. The data transmission and reception means 14 transmits the registered user information, terminal setting data, and operation message content to the service provision server 20 and receives received message content from the service provision server 20. The content display means 15 displays the operation message content and received message content on the panel surface.

[0025] The service provision server 20 includes a storage means 21, a print data generation means 22, a manual data editing means 23, a binding means 24, and a sending means 25. The storage means 21 stores user information, terminal setting data, operation message content, and received message content for each account, along with date and time information. The print data generation means 22 is generated after a predetermined period has elapsed, on a predetermined date or message Based on the amount of accumulated content, the system automatically edits stored operation message content and received message content to generate print data. The manual data editing means 23 allows the user to manually edit the automatically edited print data. When a user manually edits the print data using the manual data editing means 23, they access the service provider server 20 using their own PC or similar device to perform the editing. The bookbinding means 24 creates a book from the print data. The delivery means 25 then sends the book bound by the bookbinding means to the book delivery address associated with the account.

[0026] Figure 2 shows the system configuration diagram of the panel communication bookbinding system of Example 1. As shown in Figure 2, the panel communication bookbinding system 100 is a system in which a service provision server 20 and communication panel terminals (10a, 10b) send and receive data via the Internet 4. The communication panel terminals (10a, 10b) are terminals that can be installed on the wall of a room, etc., and can be used jointly by family members and friends, and can also be used for communication. Here, communication panel terminals (10a, 10b) are used as examples of communication panel terminals, but for example, the terminals may be embedded in the wall and integrated with the building, etc. Also, in reality, a larger number of terminals can be connected. In this example, communication panel terminal 10a is used by users (1a to 1c), and communication panel terminal 10b is used by users (1a, 1b). Each communication panel terminal (10a, 10b) is assigned a unique account that allows it to receive services from the service provider server 20. The service provider server 20 stores message content from one or more users to the same communication panel terminal along with date and time information in the storage means 21, and generates print data containing a series of message contents based on the elapsed time of a predetermined period, a predetermined date, or the amount of accumulated message content. Service provider 2 uses the bookbinding means 24 shown in Figure 1 to create a book from the print data, and then uses the delivery means 25 to send the book to the book delivery address associated with the account.

[0027] Figure 3 shows a schematic flowchart of the panel communication bookbinding system of Example 1. As shown in Figure 3, first, user registration and terminal settings are performed on the communication panel terminal 10 to be used (steps S01, S02). Here, user registration is the registration of information about the user who will use the communication panel terminal. Such user information includes information such as whether it will be used for communication with family at home or for communication within a team at work, and information about the user's birthday and anniversaries (this information is used on the event date to automatically display a message on the panel). Terminal settings are the input of terminal setting data for the communication panel terminal. Terminal setting data includes the account name of the panel terminal used by the user (associated with the unique account), the terminal's network information (address information for the wireless communication environment), and the address information where the communication panel terminal is installed (weather information is displayed on the panel based on the registered address). Subsequently, operation message content is entered or received message content is received (step S03). At this point, it is determined whether a predetermined period has elapsed (step S04). If the predetermined period has not elapsed, operation message content is entered again or received message content is received. On the other hand, if the predetermined period has elapsed, print data is automatically generated (step S05). If manual editing is not required for the automatically generated print data (step S06), it is bound (step S08) and sent to the user (step S09). If manual editing is required for the automatically generated print data (step S06), manual editing is performed (step S07).

[0028] Figure 4 is an image diagram of the handwritten message input screen of a communication panel terminal, where (1) is the icon selection screen, (2) is the input screen before message input, (3) is the input screen after message input, and (4) is the message input completion screen. As shown in Figure 4(1), multiple operation icons are displayed on the display 6 of the communication panel terminal 10. By selecting the icon 61 displayed on the right edge of the display 6, the user transitions to the input screen shown in Figure 4(2). The input screen before message input shown in Figure 4(2) displays the handwritten message input section 62. As shown in Figure 4(3), the user can write a message in the handwritten message input section 62 using touch input or pen input. When the input of the handwritten message 63 is complete, a display indicating completion appears. Here, as shown in Figure 4(4), the message "Your message has been received." is displayed, indicating that the input is complete.

[0029] Figure 5 is an image of the book contents of Example 1, where (1) shows the case with a message and (2) shows the case without a message. The page shown in Figure 5(1) of Book 8 displays date and time information 81a, date and time related information (82a, 82b), a handwritten message 83a, a typed message (84a, 84b), and emojis 85. Date and time information 81a displays the date and time the message was entered, indicating that it was entered on April 4, 2020. Date and time related information (82a, 82b) is displayed as event message data. Specifically, date and time related information 82a displays "Seimei," one of the 24 solar terms. Date and time related information 82b displays a poem related to the date and time as an image.

[0030] The handwritten message 83a is the content entered via the handwritten message input method described above on the communication panel terminal 10 and displayed on the book. The typed messages (84a, 84b) and emoji 85 were entered via keyboard input. Specifically, the typed message 84a displays, "I'll be home soon, let's go for a walk." Next, the handwritten message 83a, "Okay, see you at 3 o'clock," the typed message 84b, "To the park," and the emoji 85, representing a bicycle, are displayed. In this way, by displaying not only typed messages but also handwritten messages directly on the book, the warm exchanges that took place within a family or other group can be accurately reproduced as they were at the time. In terms of layout, it is possible to display a day's worth of message exchanges on two facing pages. If there are many messages to display, the layout may be automatically edited, such as reducing the display size, or the messages may be displayed on the next page. Note that typed messages may also be entered via keyboard input or flick input on a smartphone, as described in Example 3 below.

[0031] On the page shown in Figure 5(2) of Book 8, date and time information 81b and supplementary information 86 are displayed. Date and time information 81b indicates that it displays content entered on April 5, 2020. Supplementary information 86 is automatically displayed to explain that no content was entered on April 5, 2020, and is labeled "the original date". By displaying daily messages across two facing pages, as shown in Figure 5(1), users can easily see at a glance that many messages were exchanged on April 4, 2020, as well as seasonal information. Furthermore, as shown in Figure 5(2), it's easy to identify days with no message exchanges between users. By allowing users to browse such books together, communication among users can be stimulated. [Example 2]

[0032] Figure 6 shows a functional block diagram of the panel communication bookbinding system of Example 2. As shown in Figure 6, the panel communication bookbinding system 101 is a system in which a service provision server 20 used by the service provider 2 and a communication panel terminal 10 used by the user 1 send and receive data via the Internet 4, similar to the panel communication bookbinding system 100 of Example 1. The communication panel terminal 10 includes a user information registration means 11, a terminal setting means 12, a content input means 13, a data transmission and reception means 14, a content display means 15, a group setting means 16, and a group switching means 17. The service provision server 20 includes a storage means 21, a print data generation means 22, a manual data editing means 23, a binding means 24, and a sending means 25.

[0033] In other words, the panel communication bookbinding system 101 differs from the panel communication bookbinding system 100 of Embodiment 1 in that the communication panel terminal 10 is equipped with a group setting means 16 and a group switching means 17. The group setting means 16 sets the group to which the registered user 1 belongs, and the group switching means 17 switches to a group setting that matches the user 1 using the communication panel terminal 10. The group setting by the group setting means 16 and the group switching by the group switching means 17 are transmitted to the service provision server 20 via the internet 4 by the data transmission and reception means 14 and stored in the storage means 21.

[0034] Here, we will explain the concept of group switching. Figure 7 shows a diagram illustrating group switching. As shown in Figure 7, the display 6 of the communication panel terminal 10 shows groups (5a to 5c). Users (1a to 1c) belong to group 5a, and users (1d to 1h) belong to group 5b. Users (1i, 1j) also belong to group 5c. Users (1a to 1j) select the group to which they belong from the displayed groups (5a to 5c) to switch. Although not shown here, user authentication is performed when selecting a group. Furthermore, the communication panel terminal 10 can also be configured with a larger number of groups. In such cases, when switching between groups, the user scrolls the screen to select the group they wish to switch to. In this way, by allowing multiple groups to use a single communication panel terminal 10, the communication panel terminal 10 can be used in a wide range of locations, such as schools and workplaces. Furthermore, since different print data is generated for each group, it is possible to create booklets that are suitable for each group, thus expanding the range of uses for the communication panel terminal 10. [Example 3]

[0035] Figure 8 shows a functional block diagram of the panel communication bookbinding system of Embodiment 3. As shown in Figure 8, the panel communication bookbinding system 102 is a system in which a service provision server 20 used by the service provider 2 and a communication panel terminal 10 and client terminal 30 used by the user 1 send and receive data via the Internet 4. The communication panel terminal 10 includes a user information registration means 11, a terminal setting means 12, a content input means 13, a data transmission and reception means 14, a content display means 15, a group setting means 16, and a group switching means 17. The service provision server 20 includes a storage means 21, a print data generation means 22, a manual data editing means 23, a binding means 24, and a sending means 25. The client terminal 30 also includes a remote control means 31. The remote control means 31 remotely operates the communication panel terminal via the service provision server. Specifically, the client terminal 30 can use the user information registration means 11, terminal setting means 12, content input means 13, content display means 15, group setting means 16, and group switching means 17 of the communication panel terminal 10 via the remote control means 31. The client terminal 30 can also use the manual data editing means 23 provided by the service provision server 20. Furthermore, when the content input means 13 is used via the remote control means 31, the communication panel terminal 10 will receive the input message content as received message content.

[0036] Figure 9 shows the system configuration diagram of the panel communication bookbinding system of Example 3. As shown in Figure 9, the panel communication bookbinding system 102 is a system in which a service provision server 20 and a communication panel terminal 10 send and receive data via the Internet 4. Although the communication panel terminal 10 is shown as an example here, a much larger number of terminals can actually be connected. The communication panel terminal 10 is used by users (1a to 1c) belonging to group 5a. User 1a owns and uses a smartphone 3a, user 1b owns and uses a smartphone 3b, and user 1c owns and uses a tablet terminal 3c. Users (1a to 1c) can use the remote control means 31 by installing a dedicated application on their respective smartphones (3a, 3b) and tablet terminals 3c. In other words, by accessing the service provision server 20 via the internet 4, the smartphones (3a, 3b) or tablet terminals 3c can perform various operations on the communication panel terminal 10.

[0037] Figure 10 shows an image of how messages are displayed on a smartphone. The display 7 shown in Figure 10 is an image of the display of a smartphone 3a used by user 1a. As shown in Figure 10, the display 7 shows handwritten messages (71a to 71e), and each message displays user 1a's icon 72a and username 72b. All of the handwritten messages (71a to 71e) were drawn by user 1a using touch input on the display 6 of the communication panel terminal 10.

[0038] Figure 11 shows an image of the contents of a book in Example 3. On the page of book 8 shown in Figure 11, date and time information 81c, date and time related information 82c, and a handwritten message 83b are displayed. The date and time information 81c indicates that the content entered on March 5, 2020, is being displayed. The date and time related information 82c displays the weather for that day, showing "It hailed."

[0039] The handwritten message 83b is the content entered via handwritten message input on the communication panel terminal 10 and displayed on the book. The handwritten message 83b has the same content as the handwritten message 71c shown in Figure 10, indicating that the content displayed on the smartphone 3a's display 7 was printed in the book. In this way, by using not only communication panel terminals but also client terminals such as smartphones in conjunction, a more convenient system can be created. [Example 4]

[0040] This embodiment describes an example of publishing the results of using a communication panel terminal for one year in a book. Figure 12 shows an image of the book contents in Embodiment 4. In book 8 shown in Figure 12, a frequency usage image 87 is displayed on the left page. Here, words such as "today," "mom," and "dad" are displayed as large ovals, making it easy to understand which words were used most frequently over a certain period. In this way, it is possible to use a communication panel terminal to collect the words spoken by a family over a year and include them in a book as a visual diagram. Furthermore, the right-hand page of book 8 shown in Figure 12 displays an image 88 of external device usage. This shows the number of times and duration of use of external devices such as air conditioners, music players, and lights. Specifically, it shows that the air conditioner was used 250 times a year, with the most frequent usage time being between 12:00 and 15:00. It also shows that the music player was used 100 times a year, and the lights were used 150 times a year, often being turned on around 22:00. In this way, being able to check the usage status of external devices can make you aware of lifestyles that you wouldn't normally notice, and is effective in creating topics for family discussion when reflecting on the year. [Example 5]

[0041] This example describes how to create a one-year timeline of the usage results of a communication panel terminal on a single sheet of paper. Figure 13 shows an image of the timeline in Example 5. The timeline 9 shown in Figure 13 is printed on a large sheet of paper like a scroll, displaying the results of communication. Here, it is indicated that it is the timeline of the "○○ family" for "2021". The timeline 9 displays a timeline 89, and events 90 are displayed along with their respective icons in chronological order on the timeline 89. This allows users to see at a glance what events occurred and when. Below each event 90, messages 91a, images 91b, emojis 91c, etc., that were exchanged at that time are displayed. This makes it easy to see not only the events but also what kind of messages were exchanged. Thus, while Timeline 9 is not a collection of multiple sheets of paper like Book 8, printing it as a single large sheet of paper, like a timeline of family events and words, creates a record that differs from a calendar in that it adds feelings and words from the time to the chronological events.

[0042] (Other examples) The above example showed a case where the results of communication between multiple people were compiled into a book, but it can also be used to record daily feelings, like a one-line diary. Because it's easy to create a book like a diary, it can be kept as a record without becoming boring. Individuals can use it like a one-line diary, while families can use it as a family exchange diary. [Industrial applicability]

[0043] This invention is useful as a technology for creating a book from the accumulated communication history on a terminal used by multiple users. [Explanation of Symbols]
