Abstract

In a transmission and reception system, a transmitting and receiving unit is configured to acquire a message, and generate candidates of a reply message to the acquired message. A wearable computer is configured to perform a short-distance communication with the transmission and reception unit to receive the candidates of the replay message transmitted from the transmission and reception unit, and transmit a desired reply message selected from among the candidates of the replay message to the transmission and reception unit.

Claims (33)

1. A transmission and reception system comprising:

a transmitting and receiving unit configured to acquire a message, and generate candidates of a reply message to the acquired message; and

a wearable computer configured to perform a short-distance communication with the transmission and reception unit to receive the candidates of the reply message transmitted from the transmission and reception unit, transmit a desired reply message selected from among the candidates of the reply message to the transmission and reception unit, and add additional candidates to the candidates of the reply message from the transmission and reception unit to prepare options of the reply message.

2. The transmission and reception system according to claim 1 , wherein the transmission and reception unit analyzes the acquired massage and generates the candidates of the reply message, and the wearable computer adds the candidates of the reply message which replying later to the candidates of the reply message received from the transmission and reception unit to prepare options of the reply message.

3. The transmission and reception system according to claim 1 , wherein the transmission and reception unit analyzes the acquired massage and generates the candidates of the reply message based on past massages accumulated in an message history memory.

4. A transmission and reception method comprising:

a transmission and reception unit acquiring a message, and generating candidates of a reply message to the acquired message;

a wearable computer performing a short-distance communication with the transmitting and receiving unit, receiving the candidates of the reply message transmitted from the transmitting and receiving unit, transmitting a desired reply message selected from among the candidates of the reply message to the transmitting and receiving unit, adding additional candidates to the candidates of the reply message received from the transmission and reception unit, and preparing options of the reply message; and

the transmitting and receiving unit receiving the desired reply message from the wearable computer and transmitting the desired reply message.

5. A transmission and reception method performed by a transmission and receiving unit, comprising:

acquiring a message;

saving the acquired message;

generating candidates of a reply message to the acquired message;

performing a short-distance communication with a wearable computer;

transmitting the candidates of the reply message to the wearable computer;

receiving a desired reply message selected from among the candidates of the reply message from the wearable computer;

checking whether the reply massage received from the wearable computer is empty;

transmitting the reply message when the reply message is not empty; and

checking start-up of the transmission and reception unit and restoration of the transmission and reception unit from a sleep/halt state to display the message saved after start-up or restoration of the transmission and reception unit when the reply message is empty and a re-reply necessary identifier is necessary.

6. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium which stores a computer-executable program to attain a transmission and reception method which comprises:

acquiring a message;

saving the acquired message;

generating candidates of a reply message to the acquired message;

performing a short-distance communication with a wearable computer;

transmitting the candidates of the reply message to the wearable computer;

receiving a desired reply message selected from among the candidates of the reply message from the wearable computer;

checking whether the reply massage received from the wearable computer is empty;

trans e reply message when the reply message is not empty; and

checking start-up of the transmission and reception unit and restoration of the transmission and reception unit from a sleep/halt state to display the message saved after start-up or restoration of the transmission and reception unit when the reply message is empty and a re-reply necessary identifier is necessary.

7. A transmission and reception system comprising:

a transmitting and receiving unit configured to acquire a message, and generate candidates of a reply message to the acquired message; and

a wearable computer configured to perform a short-distance communication with the transmission and reception unit to receive the candidates of the reply message transmitted from the transmission and reception unit, transmit a desired reply message selected from among the candidates of the reply message to the transmission and reception unit, and empty the reply message to transmit the reply message including a re-reply necessary identifier to the transmitting and receiving unit when the candidates of the reply message which not reply now but reply later is selected from the candidates of the reply message, and;

a transmitting and receiving unit saves the acquired massage, checks whether the reply massage is empty, transmits the reply message when the reply message is not empty, checks start-up of the transmission and reception unit and restoration of the transmission and reception unit from a sleep/halt state to display the message saved after start-up or restoration of the transmission and reception unit when the reply message is empty and the re-reply necessary identifier is necessary.
