Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to an automatic production device for a planetarium.

(Prior Art) An automatic performance device conventionally used in a planetarium is adapted to reproduce a performance program once created many times. One production program automatically produces one program in a determined order with a determined content.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) If the production program automatically produces one program in a determined order with a determined content, a basic starry sky, a scene,
It is impossible to say that the contents of partial scenes and explanations can be changed according to the demands and knowledge level of the audience, while sharing the same general flow of scenes and scenes that match the topic at that time.

For this reason, in the past, it was not possible to utilize the automatic production system that relied on humans for production that matched the audience's request and knowledge level, or there were several different production programs prepared due to partial differences. Sometimes it doesn't. Moreover, even if you create and use different staging programs for young children, elementary school students, junior high school students according to age, the staging content will still be decided unilaterally, and it will suit the audience's wishes at that time. Not necessarily.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide an automatic production device for a planetarium capable of selecting the contents of the automatic production on the spot while taking in the demands of the audience, and solving the above-mentioned conventional problems. It is a thing.

(Means for Solving Problems) In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention has a control means according to the production program of the planetarium and a questionnaire means, and the control means is in accordance with the result of the questionnaire by the questionnaire means. The feature is that the contents of the effect can be selected and changed.

(Operation) As the control means for automatically producing the planetarium according to the production program, the questionnaire means provided therewith can be used according to the production program. The questionnaire means conducts a questionnaire survey to the audience according to the operation command from the control means. In the questionnaire survey at this time, the following scene and several subprograms prepared as explanations are selected in one production program,
For example, it is performed by the projection of the contents of the sub-program and the operation of the answering device on the audience side that indicates which of the projection contents is desired.

The control means selects and executes the next subprogram according to the result of such a questionnaire survey, and in order to perform automatic production according to the program, the production that partially incorporates the wishes of the audience is performed on the spot. You can do it.

(Embodiment) An embodiment of the present invention shown in FIGS. 1 to 6 will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, a star projector 2, an auxiliary projector 3 for planets, etc. are provided in the center of a dome 1. A video projector 4 and a console 5 for operation are provided. The console 5 can handle both automatic performance and manual operation, and is connected to a host computer 6 that controls the various projectors 2, 3, and 4. The host computer 6 is also connected to an audio device 7 having a speaker 7a facing the inside of the dome 1.

With the above configuration, the conventional automatic effect and the effect by the manual operation are possible.

A data totaling / analyzing unit 12 having a large number of responding units 11 for the audience is prepared separately, and this data totaling / analyzing unit 12 is also connected to the host computer 6.

The data totalizing / analyzing unit 12 may be of a so-called personal computer level, and collects the answers from the answering unit 11 so as to give the signal with the largest answer number to the host computer 6. A so-called analyzer system, which has been widely adopted as one of learning materials for a long time, can be used as the data totalization analyzer 12 as it is. The analyzer system collects and analyzes the answers given by the respondents by numbers to the questions presented by the questioner.
Table, score total, Z score, student attention coefficient, problem attention coefficient,
There are correlation coefficient, student distribution graph, problem distribution graph, etc.,
In automatic production for education, those functions can also be used. The data totalizing / analyzing unit 12 can be replaced by the computing function of the host computer 6.

In the case of this embodiment, the data aggregation analyzer 12 as the analyzer subsystem accommodates a large number of questionnaires on a disk basis. Each questionnaire is a table of contents file that includes programs for attracting interest, such as pictures and graphs, display of total results, etc. according to the question, so each questionnaire is assigned a questionnaire number and the contents that match the table of contents are selected. To be able to call.

The host computer 6 constitutes a control means for performing automatic production in accordance with the production program, but has a sub-program selection routine in the production program, and when the routine is entered, the data totalizing analyzer 12 is activated and the video projector 4 and At least one of the audio devices 7 is operated, the contents of the prepared subprogram are informed to the audience, the contents to be directed are asked, and the answering device 11 is instructed to answer. Then, the data aggregation analyzer 12 is made to analyze the answer. This is a so-called questionnaire survey, and the video projector 4, the audio device 7, the answering device 11, and the data totaling / analyzing device 12 form a questionnaire means 21.

The result of totaling by the data totalizing analyzer 12, for example, the signal of the answer number having the largest number of answers is input to the host computer 6 as the questionnaire result by the questionnaire means 21, and the host computer 6 selects the subprogram corresponding to the input. I am trying to do it.

By doing this, while making a large flow common to the basic starry sky and scenes, scenes according to the season and the topic at that time, it is possible to partially direct the audience with the contents on the spot. You can Moreover, this results in the spectator's participation in the automatic production in which the spectators can select and change the production contents, and the spectator's satisfaction and interest can be increased as compared with the conventional one-sided automatic production.

Next, an actual automatic effect using the questionnaire means 21 will be described based on the flowcharts in FIG.

FIG. 2 is a flow chart showing an example program for automatic production. The evening scene, the starry sky scene, and the program proceed (steps # 1 and # 2), and when the process moves to step # 3, the next prepared sub Program step # 4
~ Questionnaire I is surveyed as to which one of # 8 is desired.
The question of the questionnaire is, for example, by the video projector 4, "What is next explained? 1. Origin of stars 2. Brightness of stars 3. Myth of stars 4. Constellation 5. Movement of planets Project a screen saying "Please." And encourage the responder 11 to operate. It is convenient for explanation to use the audio device 7 together.

When the responder 11 is operated, the data totalization analyzer 12 inputs the number of the most answered answer to the host computer 6, so that the subprogram having the number of the most answered is selected and executed in steps # 4 to # 8. If the answer from No. 3 is the most, the scene about the myth of the stars in Step # 6 will be performed. However, the narration and BGM can be switched accordingly.

Next, we produced a scene suitable for the season (Step #
9) After that, the questionnaire II is investigated in step # 10, and the subprogram corresponding to the result of the questionnaire II in steps # 11 to # 13 is selected and executed.

Then, in step # 14, from the scene of the story of the North Star to the sunrise scene in step # 15, various scenes that remain in the production program or according to the questionnaire result are executed and the process ends.

Next, the main routine of the program execution of the host computer 6 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

At step # 21, the initial settings such as 0 clearing of the production clock, execution step number 0 clearing, and other work area clearing are performed, and then the process proceeds to step # 22 to read the step data of the execution step number.

In the next step # 23, it is determined whether or not all the execution steps have been completed. If it is completed, the control operation is ended as it is. Set to. Then, in step # 25, the contents of the previously read step are executed. It is determined whether or not this execution step is an analyzer command for conducting a questionnaire (step # 26), and if not, the lamp / motor control subroutine of step # 27 (this is necessary when performing lamp control and motor control by software). ), The execution step number is incremented in step # 28, and the process returns to step # 22.

If the instruction is an analyzer instruction in step # 26, the process proceeds to step # 29, the analyzer subroutine is executed and the process returns to step # 22 so that the execution step selected by the result of the questionnaire is read.

The analyzer subroutine is shown in Figure 4,
In step # 31, the questionnaire number and wait time data are transferred to the Alanizer subsystem. This wait time is such that the questionnaire is conducted within a fixed time so that the effect time of the planetarium does not change. If the wait time is exceeded, error processing is performed.

Next, in step # 32, it is determined whether or not the interrupt is from the analyzer subsystem, and if so, the number data with the largest number of responses from the analyzer subsystem, for example, m, is received (step # 33), and executed in step # 34. The step number is set to M, the execution step number in the main routine shown in FIG. 3 is replaced with the number having the largest number of answers, and the program returns so that the program jumps to the required step.

If it is not an interrupt from the analyzer subsystem in step # 32, the process proceeds to step # 35, it is determined whether the wait time is exceeded, and if it is, it is an error and the execution step number is F in step # 36. By processing the questionnaire as the first, the program is continued without stopping the execution of the program, and error processing is performed.

If not, the lamp / motor control subroutine is executed in step # 37, and the process returns to step # 31.

The ramp motor control subroutine is shown in FIG. In this subroutine, the movement amount of the motion axis is calculated in step # 41, and the data is input to the specified I / O port,
In step # 42, the light quantity of the lamp is calculated and the data is input to a predetermined I / O port to produce a predetermined scene.

On the other hand, the analyzer subsystem subroutine is shown in FIG. In step # 51, each data of questionnaire number and wait time is received from the CPU of the host computer 6, and in step # 52, a question based on the questionnaire number is sent to the video projector 4 as an RGB signal output. Next, at step # 53, the data from the responder 11 is collected at the wait time-Δt. After that, the number m of the most data from the data collected in step # 54 is sent to the host computer 6. Here, the case where the number of answers to the questionnaire is the same as 0 is not processed, but if the answer is 0, the question number is 1.
If the numbers are the same, the younger question number can be taken and the error processing can be performed in the same manner to continue the program.

When the sound device 7 is used for a questionnaire survey, the more question items there are, it is desirable to use various sound effects suitable for each case.

One of such methods is to use a multi-track tape deck. As shown in FIG. 7, in the multi-tracks i, ii ... N, different combinations are reproduced as shown by the broken lines according to A, B, C.
Explaining in a specific example, A represents from the start of the number to the first time the questionnaire is totaled, and the sound effects and narration of each channel are recorded. As for B, assuming that the result of the first questionnaire is, for example, the first one, only one track of the sounds of tracks 1 to n is reproduced. C, F
Same as Co-A. D corresponds to the second questionnaire result and F corresponds to the nth questionnaire result.

There is also a PCM method that uses a video tape. In the case of this PCM system, the time code is written on the tape,
By supplying the time data from the host computer 6, the tape can be sent to the target position. In the multi-track method, sound must be recorded continuously, but in this case, continuity need not be particularly considered.

There is also a multi-tape deck system. This is a method of preparing the number of tape decks corresponding to the number of questions and reproducing the sound from the target tape deck.

(Effects of the Invention) According to the present invention, since it has the above-described configuration and operation, it is possible to automatically produce a planetarium with the contents of the audience's wishes taken in each case.
