Toy system cooperating with Computer
First Claim
1. A toy system comprising:
- a computer with a recording medium in which digital contents and a digital contents driving program are stored; and
a movable device interfaced with said computer;
wherein said digital contents are stored in said recording medium of said computer, and comprise image data, sound data and motion control data;
wherein said digital contents driving program processes the following steps of;
(a) reading said digital contents;
(b) displaying the image data of said digital contents on a screen of said computer; and
(c) transmitting the sound data and the motion control data of said digital contents as a packet form to said movable device connected with said computer;
wherein said movable device comprises;
a communication port for providing an interface with said computer;
a microprocessor for decoding a data packet received via said communication port, outputting sound data and a motion control signal, and controlling operations of said movable device;
a memory for storing a program and a motion code table required for the operation of said microprocessor;
a decoder for decoding the sound data from said microprocessor to output a sound signal;
a motor driving unit for driving a motor in response to the motion control signal from said microprocessor; and
a motor installed in each part of said movable device; and
wherein the image data is displayed on said computer screen and said movable device decodes the data packet transmitted from said computer to output the sound data to said digital sound decoder and the motion control signal to the motor driving unit when said digital contents driving program is processed in said computer, whereby the motion and sound output of said movable device are synchronized with the screen output of said computer.

Abstract
Disclosed is a toy system for downloading digital contents via the internet and processing the downloaded digital contents through real time cooperation between a computer and a toy. The computer comprises a recording medium which stores digital contents and a digital contents driving program. The toy comprises a microprocessor, a communication port, a digital sound decoder, a speaker, a motor driving unit, a motor, an LED/lighting device and an LED/lighting device control unit. The digital contents comprise image data, first and second sound data and motion control data. The digital contents driving program processes the following steps: reading the digital contents; displaying the image data of the digital contents on a screen of the computer; outputting the second sound data of the digital contents to a speaker of the computer; and transmitting the first sound data and the motion control data of the digital contents as a packet form to the toy connected with the computer.
