Abstract

Realizing a presentation system which can present picture data and voice data in a simplified manner after shooting and picking up pictures by a digital still camera, etc. and recording voices by a voice recorder, etc. Firstly, when the presentation system executes the program, a folder will be selected to specify a recording area in the personal computer 10 (step 1). After obtaining temporal information of all picture data and voice data in the folder, the presentation system performs relating operation for pages of slides so that the picture data and the voice data correspond to the slides at the time of data presentation (step 2). Next, the presentation system makes the user select whether information processing for data will be performed or not (step 3). If the user intends to perform the information processing for data, the flow advances to step 4, in which the user can perform the information processing for data such as voice recognition, text inputting, or selecting static pictures from moving pictures, if necessary, for each of the related slide data in the presentation system.

Claims

1. A presentation system comprising:

means for sequentially relating picture data and voice data to each other as slides for presentation to automatically generate presentation data; and

means for displaying the automatically generated presentation data.

2. The presentation system as set forth in claim 1, wherein the presentation data generating means sequentially relates the picture data and the voice data to each other based on shooting time of pictures and recording time of voices.

3. The presentation system as set forth in claim 1, wherein the presentation data generating means recognizes the voice data to convert the recognized voice data to text data.

4. A method for generating presentation data comprising the steps of:

judging temporal matching of picture data and voice data based on shooting time of pictures and recording time of voices stored in a storing unit;

processing the picture data and the voice data which are judged to be temporally matched in the temporal matching judging step.

5. The method for generating presentation data as set forth in claim 4, wherein, in the picture and voice data processing step, the voice data is recognized and the recognized voice data is converted to text data.

6. A program for generating presentation data executing the steps of:

judging temporal matching of picture data and voice data based on shooting time of pictures and recording time of voices stored in a storing unit;

processing the picture data and the voice data which are judged to be temporally matched in the temporal matching judging step.
