COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, COMMUNICATION METHOD AND PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18260113 titled 'COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, COMMUNICATION METHOD AND PROGRAM
Simplified Explanation
The communication system described in the patent application involves an information processing device that offers a video conference service, along with communication terminals that utilize this service. The information processing device records encrypted communication data from each communication terminal in a storage, transmits a ciphertext obtained by encrypting an encryption key capable of decoding the communication data to the communication terminals, and then sends the communication data to the communication terminals. Each communication terminal decodes the communication data using the ciphertext and reproduces the video and audio content in synchronization with the others based on control data in the communication data.
- Information processing device provides video conference service
- Communication terminals use the service
- Communication data encrypted and stored in first storage
- Ciphertext of encryption key sent to communication terminals
- Communication data transmitted to communication terminals
- Communication terminals decode data using ciphertext
- Video and audio content reproduced in sync based on control data
---
- Potential Applications
- Remote work and virtual meetings
- Online education and training
- Telemedicine and remote healthcare consultations
- Problems Solved
- Secure transmission of communication data
- Synchronization of video and audio content in real-time
- Efficient management of video conference services
- Benefits
- Enhanced security and privacy for communication data
- Seamless and synchronized video and audio playback
- Improved user experience for video conference participants
Original Abstract Submitted
A communication system includes an information processing device that provides a video conference service; and communication terminals using the service. The information processing device records communication data related to a video conference encrypted and transmitted from each communication terminal in a first storage for the communication terminal; transmits, to the communication terminals, a ciphertext obtained by encrypting an encryption key capable of decoding each item of the communication data recorded in the first storage such that the encryption key can be decoded by the communication terminals; and transmits the communication data recorded in the first storage to the communication terminals. Each communication terminal decodes the communication data for the communication terminal using a decoding result of the ciphertext; and reproduces video and audio included in the communication data decoded for the communication terminal in synchronization with the others based on control data in the communication data.
