TOUCH READING SYSTEM FOR PLAYING CLOUD-BASED AUDIO AND VIDEO CONTENTS THROUGH APPLICATION SOFTWARE

Abstract

A touch reading system for playing cloud-based audio and video contents through application software (APP) includes a book with an invisible printed code and a touch reading pen with a wireless transmission function. The touch reading pen can obtain a digital number from the book and transmit the digital number to a smart device with APP supported by an arbitrary one of the existing operating systems. The touch reading system allows audio and video contents to be played by devices other than a displaying device, and can connect to a cloud server through the networking function of the smart device so that the desired video contents can be easily downloaded, updated, and managed through the APP to increase the videos available to be played. The touch reading system adopts a cross-platform APP system and supports all the currently mainstream operating systems such as Android, Windows, and iOS.

4. The touch reading system for playing cloud-based audio and video contents through APP as claimed in claim 1, wherein the APP supported by the arbitrary one of the existing operating systems is subjected to cloud-based management and is managed via a cloud server.

5. The touch reading system for playing cloud-based audio and video contents through APP as claimed in claim 1, wherein the APP supported by the arbitrary one of the existing operating systems includes APP for playing audio and video contents digitally.

6. The touch reading system for playing cloud-based audio and video contents through APP as claimed in claim 1, wherein the touch reading pen with the wireless transmission function provides connectivity through a wireless transmission means selected from the group consisting of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

7. The touch reading system for playing cloud-based audio and video contents through APP as claimed in claim 1, wherein the smart device provides connectivity through Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.

8. The touch reading system for playing cloud-based audio and video contents through APP as claimed in claim 1, wherein the touch reading pen with the wireless transmission function has a memory loaded only with fundamental operating software but not with voice data.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0019] The present invention provides a touch reading system for playing cloud-based audio and video contents through APP. The touch reading system includes a book with an invisible printed code and a touch reading pen with a wireless transmission function. The touch reading pen with the wireless transmission function provides Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity and is configured to obtain a digital number from the book with the invisible printed code and transmit the digital number to a smart device, wherein the smart device has APP supported by an arbitrary one of the existing operating systems and provides Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity. The functions of the APP include managing user information, downloading audio contents, downloading video contents, managing cloud-based books, and playing audio and video contents. The APP supported by the arbitrary one of the existing operating systems is subjected to cloud-based management and is managed via a cloud server. The APP supported by the arbitrary one of the existing operating systems includes APP for playing audio and video contents digitally. The smart device may be a TV set, a mobile phone using an Android operating system, a mobile phone using an iOS operating system, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, or the like.

[0020] One who uses the system of the present invention can play audio and video contents via devices other than a displaying device because the system supports and can work with TV sets, set-top boxes, tablet computers, mobile phones, laptop computers, desktop computers, and other mainstream smart devices. In addition, video contents available to be played by the system of the invention can be updated and increased. More specifically, the system of the invention can connect to a cloud server through the networking function of the smart device so that a user can easily download, update, and manage the desired video contents through the APP in the smart device. Furthermore, the system of the invention adopts a cross-platform APP system and hence can be made compatible with all the currently mainstream operating systems (e.g., Android, Windows, and iOS) by developing the required APP for each operating system.

[0021] The present invention overcomes such drawbacks of the prior art as the high production cost resulting from the large-capacity built-in memory required by a conventional touch reading pen to store audio files or programs. The invention is so designed that the touch reading pen with the wireless transmission function can obtain the digital number from the book with the invisible printed code and transmit the digital number to the smart device with APP supported by the arbitrary one of the existing operating systems; consequently, there is no need to store all the data in the memory in the touch reading pen. The system of the invention, therefore, has a lower cost than the prior art, which helps encourage extensive use of the system.
