Abstract

Methods and terminals for processing e-tickets are provided. The terminal can include a saving module, a parsing module, and a voice reading module. The e-ticket can be obtained by a terminal. The terminal can parse contents of the e-ticket to generate ticket information of the e-ticket by triggering a reading button to call an internal program. The ticket information can be converted by the terminal into a voice message corresponding to the e-ticket. The voice message can be played by the terminal to read the ticket information of the e-ticket.

Claims

1. A method for processing an e-ticket comprising:

obtaining, by a terminal, the e-ticket;

parsing, by the terminal, contents of the e-ticket to generate ticket information of the e-ticket by triggering a reading button to call an internal program;

converting, by the terminal, the ticket information into a voice message corresponding to the e-ticket; and

playing, by the terminal, the voice message to read the ticket information of the e-ticket.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein, prior to obtaining the e-ticket, the method further comprises:

requesting to obtain the e-ticket;

searching for e-tickets provided by a plurality of e-commerce platforms;

selecting the e-ticket from the e-tickets provided by the plurality of e-commerce platforms; and

downloading the selected e-ticket.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein, after the obtaining of the e-ticket, the method further comprises saving the obtained e-ticket on the terminal.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the converting of the ticket information comprises:

finding a single voice word corresponding to each character in the e-ticket;

combining single voice words into a voice word string, according to an arranged order of the each character in the e-ticket; and

generating the voice message from the combined single voice words corresponding to the e-ticket.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein, following the playing of the voice message, the method further comprises:

generating voice notes according to the ticket information of the e-ticket, wherein the voice notes include audio files having a general format.

6. The method of claim 5, wherein, following the generating of the voice notes, the method further comprises:

sending the generated voice notes to one or more additional terminals.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the ticket information of the e-ticket comprises a string of a code or a serial number arranged in a specific format or in a specific order, and wherein each of the code or the serial number is made by a letter, a number, or a combination thereof.

8. The method of claim 1, wherein the reading button is configured to receive a triggering command from a user to read the ticket information of the e-ticket.

9. The method of claim 1, wherein the reading button includes a physical button or a software touch-control button, and the reading button is configured to receive a triggering command or a triggering operation from a user such that the terminal reads a code or a serial number in the ticket information in a form of the voice message according to an arranged order.

10. A terminal for processing an e-ticket comprising:

a saving module, configured to receive the e-ticket;

a parsing module, configured to parse contents of the e-ticket to generate ticket information of the e-ticket by triggering a reading button to call an internal program, wherein the parsing module is further configured to convert the ticket information into a voice message corresponding to the e-ticket; and

a voice reading module, configured to play the voice message to read the ticket information of the e-ticket.

11. The terminal of claim 10, wherein the terminal further comprises a requesting module configured to request to obtain the e-ticket.

12. The terminal of claim 11, wherein the terminal further comprises a downloading module configured, according to a request sent by the requesting module, to search for e-tickets provided by a plurality of e-commerce platforms;

to select the e-ticket from the e-tickets provided by the plurality of e-commerce platforms; and

to download the selected e-ticket.

13. The terminal of claim 10, wherein the saving module is further configured to save the received e-ticket on the terminal.

14. The terminal of claim 10, wherein the parsing module is further configured to:

find a single voice word corresponding to each character in the e-ticket;

combine single voice words into a voice word string, according to an arranged order of the each character in the e-ticket; and

generate the voice message from the combined single voice words corresponding to the e-ticket.

15. The terminal of claim 10, wherein the terminal further comprises a voice note generating module configured to generate voice notes according to the ticket information of the e-ticket, wherein the voice notes include audio files having a general format.

16. The terminal of claim 15, wherein the terminal further comprises a sending module configured to send the generated voice notes to one or more additional terminals.

17. The terminal of claim 10, wherein the ticket information of the e-ticket comprises a string of a code or a serial number arranged in a specific format or in a specific order, and wherein each of the code or the serial number is made by a letter, a number, or a combination thereof.

18. The terminal of claim 10, wherein the reading button is configured to receive a triggering command from a user to read the ticket information of the e-ticket.

19. The terminal of claim 10, wherein the reading button includes a physical button or a software touch-control button, and the reading button is configured to receive a triggering command or a triggering operation from a user such that the terminal reads a code or a serial number in the ticket information in a form of the voice message according to an arranged order.
