Abstract

An exemplary recording method receives the personal information of a speaker transmitted from a RFID tag through a RFID reader. Then the method receives the voice of the speaker through a microphone. The method next receives the personal information of the speaker and the identifier of the audio input device transmitted from the audio input device, and associates the personal information of the speaker with the received identifier of the audio input device. Then, the method receives the voice and the identifier of the audio input device transmitted from the audio input device. The method further converts the received voice to text. The method determines the personal information corresponding to the identifier of the audio input device received with the voice, and associates the converted text with the determined personal information to generate a record.

Claims

1. A recording system comprising:

at least one RFID tag, each of the at least one RFID tag storing personal information of a speaker;

at least one audio input device, each of the at least one audio input device comprising;

a microphone to receive the voice of the speaker using the audio input device;

a storage unit storing an identifier of the audio input device;

a RFID reader to receive the personal information of the speaker using the audio input device transmitted from the corresponding RFID tag storing the personal information; and

a communication unit to transmit the personal information of the speaker and the identifier of the audio input device, and transmit the voice received by the microphone and the identifier of the audio input device; and

a recording device comprising;

an associating module to receive the personal information of the speaker and the identifier of the audio input device transmitted via the communication unit of the audio input device, and associate the personal information of the speaker with the received identifier of the audio input device transmitted from the audio input device;

a voice receiving module to receive the voice and the identifier of the audio input device transmitted via the communication unit of the audio input device;

a voice-to-text module to convert the received voice to text; and

a generating module to determine the personal information corresponding to the identifier of the audio input device received with the voice according to the association between the personal information and the identifier of the audio input device, associate the converted text with the determined personal information to generate a record recording the text and the corresponding personal information.

2. The recording system as described in claim 1, wherein each of the at least one RFID tag is selected from a group consisting of a passive RFID tag, a semi-passive RFID tag, and an active RFID tag.

3. The recording system as described in claim 1, wherein the identifier of the audio input device is selected from a group consisting of an identifier of the RFID reader, an identifier of the microphone, and an identifier of the communication unit.

4. The recording system as described in claim 1, wherein the voice receiving module further records the speaking time of the voice, the generating module generates the record recording the speaking time, the text, and the corresponding person information according to the recorded speaking time, the converted text, and the association between the text and the personal information.

5. A recording method implemented by a recording system, the recording system comprising at least one RFID tag, at least one audio input device, and a recording device, the at least one RFID tag storing personal information of a speaker, each of the at least one audio input device comprising a microphone, a storage unit, a RFID reader, and a communication unit, the storage unit storing an identifier of the audio input device, wherein the method comprises:

receiving the personal information of the speaker using the audio input device transmitted from the corresponding RFID tag storing the personal information through the RFID reader;

transmitting the personal information of the speaker and the identifier of the audio input device via the communication unit;

receiving the personal information of the speaker and the identifier of the audio input device transmitted via the communication unit of the audio input device, and associating the personal information of the speaker with the received identifier of the audio input device transmitted from the audio input device;

receiving the voice of the speaker through the microphone;

transmitting the voice received by the microphone and the identifier of the audio input device via communication unit;

receiving the voice and the identifier of the audio input device transmitted via the communication unit of the audio input device;
