Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an alarm clock and an educational application, and more specifically, to an English learning-based alarm clock system and a control method thereof that enables a user to perform English learning upon waking up by having the user solve English problems to disable the alarm. Background Technology

[0002] A typical alarm clock or smartphone alarm application outputs an alarm sound when the set time is reached, and the user can easily turn off the alarm by simply touching or swiping a button.

[0003] With this method, the problem of users unconsciously turning off the alarm and falling back asleep occurs frequently.

[0004] To improve this, various alarm disabling methods such as calculation problems, taking photos, and QR code recognition have been proposed, but most have limitations in that they require simple actions or lack educational effectiveness.

[0005] Therefore, a new alarm release method is required that allows for learning effects simultaneously with waking up while still requiring the user's concentration. The problem to be solved

[0006] The objective of the present invention is as follows.

[0007] 1. It is to prevent the user from easily closing the alarm.

[0008] 2. It is to have English study performed immediately after waking up.

[0009] 3. It is to have the memorization of English words performed repeatedly.

[0010] 4. The alarm is set to turn off only when all questions are answered correctly.

[0011] 5. If there are incorrect answers, new problems are repeatedly provided to improve the learning effect. means of solving the problem

[0012] A system of the present invention for achieving the above objective according to one embodiment of the present invention includes the following.

[0013] ① Clock part displaying the current time

[0014] ② Alarm setting section for setting the alarm time

[0015] ③ Time determination unit that determines whether the set time has arrived

[0016] ④ Alarm output unit that outputs an alarm sound

[0017] ⑤ English Word Database

[0018] ⑥ Korean Meaning Database

[0019] ⑦ Question generation unit that generates English questions

[0020] ⑧ Input section for receiving the user's selection

[0021] ⑨ Scoring unit that determines whether the answer is correct

[0022] 10. Control unit controlling alarm termination Effects of the invention

[0023] The present invention has the following effects.

[0024] First, it can prevent the user from unconsciously turning off the alarm.

[0025] Second, it can increase concentration immediately after waking up.

[0026] Third, repetitive English vocabulary learning is possible every day.

[0027] Fourth, it can improve memorization effectiveness.

[0028] Fifth, education and lifestyle improvement can be achieved simultaneously.

[0029] Sixth, it can be utilized as a learning alarm system. Specific details for implementing the invention

[0030] A system of the present invention for achieving the above objective according to one embodiment of the present invention includes the following.

[0031] ① Clock part displaying the current time

[0032] ② Alarm setting section for setting the alarm time

[0033] ③ Time determination unit that determines whether the set time has arrived

[0034] ④ Alarm output unit that outputs an alarm sound

[0035] ⑤ English Word Database

[0036] ⑥ Korean Meaning Database

[0037] ⑦ Question generation unit that generates English questions

[0038] ⑧ Input section for receiving the user's selection

[0039] ⑨ Scoring unit that determines whether the answer is correct

[0040] 10. Control unit controlling alarm termination

[0041] Examples

[0042] The user sets the desired alarm time.

[0043] When the set time arrives, the system outputs an alarm sound.

[0044] At this time, the standard alarm end button is disabled.

[0045] To turn off the alarm, the system provides an English quiz.

[0046] The English quiz consists of a total of 5 questions.

[0056] however

[0057] If there is an incorrect answer among the 5 questions

[0058] The alarm kept ringing

[0059] Five new English word questions are generated again.

[0060] The new problem is also solved in the same way.

[0061] The above process is repeated until the user answers all 5 questions correctly.

[0062] Those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains will understand that the present invention may be implemented in other specific forms without altering its technical concept or essential features.
