[0001] The present invention relates to a karaoke apparatus. [Background Art]

[0002] Conventionally, there is known a technology capable of supporting the excitement of karaoke even among people who are less acquainted with each other by automatically generating a playback list of music that reflects the musical preferences of users (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In the karaoke apparatus described in Patent Document 1, music having common items such as song names and artist names in at least two playlists is extracted from each playlist received from each user's digital audio player. Then, the extracted songs are retrieved from a song database of the karaoke apparatus, and a playback list is generated based on the retrieved songs. [Prior Art Documents] [Patent Documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2008-158047 [Summary of the Invention] [Problem to be Solved by the Invention]

[0004] Incidentally, when a user uses karaoke individually, merely singing favorite songs silently lacks interest. For this reason, there is a demand for an effect that can support the excitement of karaoke whether in a group or individually.

[0005] An object of the present invention is to provide a karaoke apparatus that can enhance presentation effects and provide users with a new way of enjoying karaoke. [Means for Solving the Problem]

[0006] The main invention for achieving the above objective is a karaoke device comprising: a song table to which song identification information, song attribute information, and song data are associated for each song; a program table to which program identification information and program attribute information are associated for each program; a program video table to which video identification information, program identification information, and program video data are associated for each program video; a program progress table to which the playback order of song data and program video data is shown for each program; an acquisition unit to acquire a song list of predetermined songs that the user has listened to and / or sung from the user's mobile terminal; a song identification unit to identify predetermined songs included in the song list from the song table; a program identification unit to identify predetermined programs with program identification information that matches the song attribute information of predetermined songs from the program table; a program video identification unit to identify predetermined program videos from the program video table based on the program identification information of predetermined programs; a generation unit to generate a program playback list that registers song identification information for predetermined songs and video identification information for predetermined program videos by referring to the program progress table of predetermined programs; and a playback unit to play program video data corresponding to the video identification information of predetermined program videos and song data corresponding to song identification information for predetermined songs based on the program playback list. [Effects of the Invention]

[0007] According to this invention, by playing program video data and music data according to a program playback list, users can start their favorite karaoke performance during singing scenes in a music program and sing along. The performance effect is enhanced by the music program, providing a new way to enjoy karaoke for both individual and group users. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[0008] [Figure 1] This is a diagram showing the configuration of the karaoke system according to this embodiment. [Figure 2] This is a functional block diagram of the karaoke system of this embodiment. [Figure 3] This is a flowchart showing an example of the processing operation of the karaoke device according to this embodiment. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0009] The karaoke device of this embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 1 and 2. Figure 1 is a configuration diagram of the karaoke system of this embodiment. Figure 2 is a functional block diagram of the karaoke system of this embodiment. Note that, for the sake of explanation, the functional block diagram in Figure 2 shows functional blocks for realizing specific processing, but it is assumed that the configurations that a karaoke device normally has are also included. In addition, the code 'ac' is assigned to the mobile terminal, but the code 'ac' may be omitted if no specific mobile terminal is to be identified.

[0010] As shown in Figure 1, the karaoke machine 10 is connected to a monitor 11, a speaker 12, a microphone 13, and a remote control device 14. The monitor 11 displays lyrics and other text along with background video in sync with the karaoke performance, based on video signals from the karaoke machine 10. The microphone 13 converts the user's singing voice into a singing voice signal and inputs it to the karaoke machine 10. The speaker 12 emits the user's singing voice along with the performance sound signal from the karaoke machine 10 and the singing voice signal from the microphone 13. The remote control device 14 accepts various operations for the karaoke machine 10, such as song reservation operations.

[0011] When karaoke playback begins using the karaoke machine 10, lyrics and background video are displayed on the monitor 11 in sync with the karaoke performance. In the karaoke machine 10, the performance sound signal of the karaoke performance and the singing voice signal input from the microphone 13 are mixed by a mixer, and this mixed signal is amplified by an amplifier and emitted from the speaker 12. In this way, when the user sings along with the karaoke performance, the singing voice is emitted from the speaker 12 along with the performance sound. The karaoke machine 10 is also equipped with "Karaoke in a Music Program," a content feature that allows users to sing karaoke during the progress of a program that simulates an actual program.

[0012] The mobile terminals 15a-15c, owned by users U1-U3, have a karaoke application installed that functions as a karaoke remote control and a music playback application for listening to music. Users U1-U3 perform a pairing operation from the karaoke machine 10 or remote control device 14, causing a 2D code to appear on the monitor screen or remote control screen. The karaoke application on the mobile terminals 15a-15c is launched, and the 2D code is read by the camera on the mobile terminals 15a-15c, connecting the mobile terminals 15a-15c and the karaoke machine 10 via wireless communication, allowing users U1-U3 to log in to the karaoke machine 10.

[0013] As shown in Figure 2, the karaoke device 10 is equipped with a storage unit 21 that functions with the "Karaoke with Music Programs" content, an acquisition unit 22, a song identification unit 23, a program identification unit 24, a reception unit 25, a program video identification unit 26, a generation unit 27, and a playback unit 28. The storage unit 21 stores a song table 31, a program table 32, a program video table 33, and a program progress table 34. In the song table 31, each song is associated with a song ID (song identification information), song title, song attribute information, and song data. The song attribute information includes the year of release and genre of the song.

[0014] For example, as shown in Table 1, the song attribute information for song ID "ID****M1" is set to release year "1977" and genre "Enka". The song attribute information for song ID "ID****M2" is set to release year "1982" and genre "Western music". The song attribute information for song ID "ID****M3" is set to release year "1991" and genre "J-POP". Note that the song data includes performance data and lyric subtitle data for performing karaoke. The song table 31 may contain not the song data itself, but rather path information indicating the file name and storage location of the song data. [Table 1]

[0015] In the program table 32, a program ID (program identification information), a program name, and program attribute information are associated with each other for each program. A program name simulating an actual program is set as the program name. The program attribute information includes the broadcast period of the actual program, the genre of music to be broadcast, and the like. For example, as shown in Table 2, for the program with program ID "ID**PG1", "Akai Ao Utagassen" is set as the program name, the broadcast period "1953~" and the genre "kayo, enka, J-POP, etc." are set in the program attribute information. For the program with program ID "ID**PG2", "Hit Chart USA" is set as the program name, the broadcast period "1980~1989" and the genre "Western music" are set in the program attribute information. [Table 2]

[0016] In the program video table 33, a video ID (video identification information), a program ID, and program video data are associated with each other for each program video. In the present embodiment, one piece of program video data is associated with one program. For example, as shown in Table 3, program ID "ID**PG1" is associated with video ID "ID****P1", program ID "ID**PG2" is associated with video ID "ID****P2", and program ID "ID**PG3" is associated with video ID "ID****P3". Note that the program video table 33 may be set with path information indicating the file name or storage location of the program video data, instead of the program video data itself. [Table 3]

[0017] In the program progress table 34, data types to be reproduced are arranged, and the reproduction order of music data and program video data for each program is shown. For example, as shown in Table 4, in the program progress table 34 for the program with program ID "ID**PG2", the first data type is program video data, the second data type is music data, the third data type is music data, and the fourth data type is music data. This indicates that in "Hit Chart USA" corresponding to program ID "ID**PG2", karaoke performances are started in order after program video such as the opening is displayed.

Table 4

[0018] The acquisition unit 22 acquires a music list of predetermined music that the user has listened to and / or sung from the user's mobile terminal 15. For example, when user U1 selects "Karaoke in music program" from the content menu of mobile terminal 15a and presses the start button, a transmission request for a music list is sent from the acquisition unit 22 of the karaoke apparatus 10 to the karaoke applications of mobile terminals 15a-15c of users U1-U3. In the mobile terminals 15a-15c, a music list is generated from the music IDs in the singing history of the karaoke application, the music list is sent as a transmission response from the mobile terminals 15a-15c to the karaoke apparatus 10, and is acquired by the acquisition unit 22.

[0019] Further, for example, a music list may be generated from the singing history of the karaoke application and the reproduction history of the music reproduction application. In this case, when the karaoke application of the mobile terminals 15a-15c receives the transmission request for the music list, the music reproduction application is activated by the karaoke application. Then, in the mobile terminals 15a-15c, a music list is generated from the music IDs in the singing history of the karaoke application, and the music names in the reproduction history of the music reproduction application are added to the music list. Note that the music list may be created only from the reproduction history of the music reproduction application.

[0020] The song identification unit 23 identifies predetermined songs included in the song list from the song table 31. As described above, the song list includes song IDs that the user has sung, so the song identification unit 23 searches the song table 31 for song IDs included in the song list. Also, since the song list includes song titles that the user has listened to, the song identification unit 23 searches the song table 31 for song IDs of song titles included in the song list. In this way, song IDs representing predetermined songs included in the song list are identified. In this embodiment, for example, song IDs for 50 predetermined songs are identified.

[0021] The program identification unit 24 identifies a specified program from the program table 32 whose program attribute information matches the song attribute information of a specified song. In this case, a specified program is identified in which the release year of the song as song attribute information falls within the broadcast period of the actual program as program attribute information. For example, from the release years associated with the song IDs of 50 specified songs, "1982-1988" is obtained from the oldest and newest release years. Furthermore, the program identification unit 24 searches the program table 32 for program IDs associated with the broadcast period of actual programs that include the release year "1982-1988".

[0022] In this way, a program ID is identified that represents a program that simulates a program that was broadcast in the year the specified song was released. Here, the program IDs for "Akaao Uta Gassen," "Hit Chart USA," "The Best Five," and "Western Music Best Ten" are identified. Programs that simulate actual programs from the release years of songs that users U1-U3 have sung or listened to are identified. Since these actual programs are highly likely to have been watched by the users, the effect of the performance is enhanced by programs that simulate actual programs. Note that the broadcast period of the actual programs in program table 32 may be set to a broadcast period of, for example, ±5 years.

[0023] Furthermore, the program identification unit 24 identifies designated programs whose song attribute information and program attribute information share the same song genre. For example, if the genre of 50 designated songs is "Western music," the program identification unit 24 searches the program table 32 for program IDs associated with the genre "Western music." In this way, program IDs representing designated programs that simulate programs that deal with the genre of the designated songs are identified. In this case, the program IDs for "Hit Chart USA" and "Western Music Top Ten" are identified. Programs that simulate actual programs that mainly deal with the favorite genres of music of users U1-U3 are identified, enhancing the effect of the presentation. If there are multiple genres for the designated songs, the data may be aggregated by genre, and designated programs that share the genre of the most frequent song or the genre of the top three songs may be identified.

[0024] Furthermore, the program identification unit 24 may search for (identify) program IDs that satisfy either a specific condition using the release year of a predetermined song or a specific condition using the genre of a predetermined song. In addition, the program identification unit 24 may perform an AND search or an OR search on program IDs that satisfy the specific condition using the release year of a predetermined song and program IDs that satisfy the specific condition using the genre of a predetermined song. In this embodiment, the program identification unit 24 performs an AND search on program IDs that satisfy the specific condition using the release year of a predetermined song and program IDs that satisfy the specific condition using the genre of a predetermined song. Here, the program IDs for "Hit Chart USA" and "Western Music Best Ten" are identified.

[0025] The reception unit 25 displays the program name and selection number associated with the program ID of a designated program on the monitor 11 (see Figure 1) along with the message, "Please operate the karaoke application to select a program." When user U1 operates the screen of the mobile terminal 15a and selects selection number "1" for "Hit Chart USA," a selection signal including the selection number is transmitted from the mobile terminal 15a to the karaoke machine 10. When the karaoke machine 10 receives the selection signal, the reception unit 25 receives the program ID "ID**PG2" for "Hit Chart USA," which is the program with selection number "1."

[0026] The program video identification unit 26 identifies the program video from the program video table 33 based on the program ID of the desired program. The program video identification unit 26 searches the program video table 33 for a video ID associated with the program ID of the program. In this way, a video ID indicating the program video to be used in the program is identified. In this case, the video ID "ID****P2" associated with the program ID "ID**PG2" of "Hit Chart USA" is identified.

[0027] The generation unit 27 refers to the program progress table 34 of a predetermined program received by the reception unit 25 and generates a program playback list in which the song ID of a predetermined song and the video ID of a predetermined program video are registered. The generation unit 27 generates the program playback list in a predetermined memory, and the song ID of a predetermined song and the video ID of a predetermined program video are registered in the program playback list according to the playback order and data type of the program progress table 34 of the predetermined program. If the data type is "song data", a song ID randomly selected from the predetermined songs is registered in the program playback list. If the data type is "program video data", the video ID of a predetermined program video is registered in the program playback list.

[0028] Here, the program progress table 34 for the program ID "ID**PG2" of "Hit Chart USA" is referenced. In the program progress table 34 for program ID "ID**PG2", the first data type is program video data, and the subsequent data types are music data (see Table 4 above). Therefore, as shown in Table 5, the generation unit 27 sequentially registers the video ID "ID****P2" as the first entry in the program playback list, the music ID "ID****M3" as the second, the music ID "ID****M7" as the third, and the music ID "ID****M10" as the fourth. [Table 5]

[0029] The playback unit 28 plays program video data corresponding to the video ID of a predetermined program video and music data corresponding to the music ID of a predetermined music, based on the program playback list. The playback unit 28 performs playback processing according to the playback order of the program playback list. In the playback processing of video IDs in the program playback list, the playback unit 28 reads the program video data associated with the video ID from the program video table 33 and plays it. In the playback processing of music IDs in the program playback list, the playback unit 28 reads the music data associated with the music ID from the music table 31 and plays it.

[0030] Here, the program video data associated with the first video ID "ID****P2" in the program playlist is read, and the program video data is played, displaying the program video of "Hit Chart USA" on monitor 11. For example, an opening video simulating the actual program is played, and a character image simulating the face and speaking style of the actual program's host is displayed along with audio. Next, the music data associated with the second song ID "ID****M3" in the program playlist is read, and the music data is played, starting the performance of the song titled "△△△△," while the lyrics and background video are displayed on monitor 11.

[0031] The processing of each part of the karaoke device 10 may be implemented by software using a processor, or by logic circuits (hardware) formed on an integrated circuit or the like. When a processor is used, various processes are performed by the processor reading and executing a program stored in memory. For example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit) is used as the processor. The memory is composed of one or more storage media such as ROM (Read Only Memory) and RAM (Random Access Memory), depending on the application.

[0032] The processing operation of the karaoke device of this embodiment will be described with reference to Figure 3. Figure 3 is a flowchart showing an example of the processing operation of the karaoke device of this embodiment. Note that the reference numerals from Figure 2 will be used as appropriate in this explanation. Also, the following flowchart is merely an example and can be modified as needed.

[0033] As shown in Figure 3, when the "Karaoke on Music Program" content is started, the acquisition unit 22 of the karaoke device 10 requests a song list from the mobile terminal 15 (step S01). The mobile terminal 15 generates a song list from the singing history of the karaoke application and the playback history of the music playback application, and the song list sent from the mobile terminal 15 to the karaoke device 10 is acquired by the acquisition unit 22 (step S02). Next, the song identification unit 23 searches the song table 31 for song titles and song IDs included in the song list and identifies a song ID that represents a predetermined song (step S03).

[0034] Next, the program identification unit 24 searches the program table 32 for program attribute information that satisfies specific conditions corresponding to the song attribute information of the designated song, and identifies a program ID that indicates the designated program (step S04). As described above, the identification conditions include that the release year of the song as song attribute information is included in the broadcast period of the actual program as program attribute information, and that the genre of the song in the song attribute information and the program attribute information are the same. Next, the reception unit 25 displays the program names of one or more designated programs on the monitor 11, and accepts the selection of a program ID that indicates the desired designated program (step S05).

[0035] Next, the program video identification unit 26 searches the program video table 33 for the program ID of the desired predetermined program and identifies the video ID that represents the predetermined program video (step S06). Next, the generation unit 27 generates a program playback list and registers the video ID of the predetermined program video and the music ID of the predetermined music in the program playback list according to the program progress table 34 of the desired predetermined program (step S07). Then, the playback unit 28 reads the program video data corresponding to the video ID from the program video table 33 and plays it, and reads the music data corresponding to the music ID from the music table 31 and plays it (step S08).

[0036] As described above, with the karaoke device 10 of this embodiment, program video data and music data are played according to the program playback list, allowing users to sing along to their favorite karaoke performances during singing scenes in a music program. The performance effect is enhanced by the music program, providing a new way to enjoy karaoke for both individual and group users.

[0037] <Variation> In this embodiment, the program video table 33 associates one program video data with one program, but multiple program video data may be associated with one program. In the modified program video table 33, each program video is associated with a video ID, a program ID, a video type, and program video data. The video types include opening, ending, MC1, MC2, etc. Opening indicates that it is the opening video, ending indicates that it is the ending video, and MC1 and MC2 indicate that they are song introduction videos.

[0038] For example, as shown in Table 6, in the program ID "ID**PG1" of "Red and Blue Singing Contest," video IDs "ID****P1" and "ID****P2" are associated with the video type "Opening," video IDs "ID****P3" to "ID****P5" are associated with the video type "MC1," and video IDs "ID****P6" and "ID****P7" are associated with the video type "MC2." MC1 is a video in which a male host introduces the songs of the Blue Team singers, and MC2 is a video in which a female host introduces the songs of the Red Team singers. Multiple video patterns are available for each video type in "Red and Blue Singing Contest." [Table 6]

[0039] Furthermore, as shown in Table 7, for the program ID "ID**PG3" of "The Best Five," video IDs "ID****P1" and "ID****P2" are associated with the video type "Opening," video IDs "ID****P3" to "ID****P5" are associated with the video type "MC1," and video IDs "ID****P6" and "ID****P7" are associated with the video type "MC2." MC1 is a video in which the male host introduces the song that came in first place, and MC2 is a video in which the male host and the female host introduce the song that came in second place. Multiple video patterns are available for each video type in "The Best Five." [Table 7]

[0040] In this embodiment, the generation unit 27 randomly selects song IDs from a predetermined set of songs and registers them in the program playlist. However, song IDs that meet the registration criteria from the predetermined set of songs may also be registered in the program playlist. In the modified example, the song attribute information in the song table 31 includes the year of release and genre of the song, as well as the gender of the singer and the number of times the song has been played in karaoke. For example, as shown in Table 8, the song attribute information for song ID "ID****M1" is set to the gender of the singer as "female" and the number of times it has been played as "12000". The song attribute information for song ID "ID****M2" is set to the gender of the singer as "male" and the number of times it has been played as "45000". [Table 8]

[0041] In the modified program progression table 34, the registration conditions for program video data and music data are associated with the data types arranged in playback order. In the program progression table 34 for "Red and Blue Singing Contest" with program ID "ID**PG1", the video type is set as the registration condition for program video data to the program playlist, and the singer's gender is set as the registration condition for music data to the program playlist. By setting the singer's gender as a registration condition, a music program in which male and female singers sing alternately is reproduced. As shown in Table 9, the data types and registration conditions in the program progression table 34 are set so that the program progresses in the following order: opening, song introduction by male host (MC1), karaoke performance of a song by male singer, song introduction by female host (MC2), and karaoke performance of a song by female singer. [Table 9]

[0042] For example, in the program progression table 34 for "The Best Five" with program ID "ID**PG3", the video type is set as the registration condition for program video data to the program playlist, and the ranking of the number of performances is set as the registration condition for song data to the program playlist. By setting the ranking of the number of performances as the registration condition, a music program is recreated in which songs from 1st to 5th place are sung in order of the number of performances. As shown in Table 10, the data type and registration conditions are set in the program progression table 34 so that the program proceeds in the following order: opening, introduction of the 5th place song (MC5), karaoke performance of the 5th place song, introduction of the 4th place song (MC4), karaoke performance of the 4th place song, and introduction of the 3rd place song (MC3). [Table 10]

[0043] In the case of "Red and Blue Singing Contest," the generation unit 27 registers the video ID of a predetermined program video with a matching video type to the program playlist, and registers the song ID of a predetermined song with a matching singer's gender to the program playlist. For example, the first entry in the program progress table 34 shown in Table 9 is set to data type "Program video data" and registration condition "Opening." Therefore, from the video IDs used in "Red and Blue Singing Contest," either video ID "ID****P1" or video ID "ID****P2" with video type "Opening" is randomly selected and registered as the first entry in the program playlist.

[0044] In the case of "The Best Five," the generation unit 27 registers the video ID of a predetermined program video with a matching video type to the program playlist, and registers the song ID of a predetermined song with a matching performance ranking to the program playlist. For example, in the third entry of the program progress table 34 shown in Table 10, the data type is set to "song data" and the registration condition is set to "5th place." Therefore, the performance ranking is determined from the performance counts of 50 predetermined songs, and the song ID "ID****M3," which has the 5th highest performance count among the song IDs of the 50 predetermined songs, is selected and registered as the third entry in the program playlist.

[0045] In the modified karaoke device 10 described above, the production effects are enhanced, including the types of video such as openings and MCs, and it is possible to recreate music programs where men and women sing separately, as well as music programs in a ranking format.

[0046] In the above embodiment, the karaoke machine is provided with a reception unit, but the karaoke machine does not necessarily need to have a reception unit. For example, if only one program ID is identified by the program identification unit, or if a program ID is randomly selected from multiple program IDs identified by the program identification unit, the desired program ID may be identified without accepting a program ID selection from the user.

[0047] In the above embodiment, a function to reproduce music programs may be added by installing a program in the karaoke device. This program is stored in a storage medium. The storage medium is not particularly limited, but may be a non-transient storage medium such as an optical disc, magneto-optical disc, or flash memory.

[0048] Furthermore, although this embodiment has been described, other embodiments may be combinations of the above embodiments and modifications, either entirely or partially.

[0049] Furthermore, the technology of the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and may be modified, substituted, or transformed in various ways without departing from the spirit of the technical idea. Moreover, if the technical idea can be realized in a different way by advances in the technology or by other derived technologies, it may be implemented by that method. Accordingly, the claims cover all embodiments that may fall within the scope of the technical idea. [Explanation of symbols]
