Method and apparatus for registering modification pattern of transmission image and method and apparatus for reproducing the same
First Claim
1. A method of registering a modification pattern of a transmission image, comprising the steps of:
- reading out contents associated with said modification pattern modifying the transmission image to be displayed on a second image display unit of a second communication device when a first communication device including a first image display unit of a first person in communication is communicating with the second communication device including the second image display unit of a second person in communication through a relay center;
copying said modification pattern from the thus readout contents; and
registering the thus copied modification pattern in such a manner that said first person in communication or said first communication device is capable of using said modification pattern,wherein said modification pattern modifies a related image related to said first person in communication within said transmission image.

Abstract
The registering method and apparatus read out contents associated with a modification pattern modifying a transmission image to be displayed on a second image display unit of a second communication device when a first communication device including a first image display unit of a first person in communication is communicating with the second communication device of a second person in communication through a relay center, copy the modification pattern from the contents, and register the modification pattern in such a manner that the first person in communication or the first communication device is capable of using the modification pattern. The reproducing method and apparatus reproduce the registered modification pattern.

25. A method of reproducing a modification pattern of a transmission image, comprising the steps of:
-
reading out contents associated with said modification pattern modifying the transmission image to be displayed on a second image display unit of a second communication device when a first communication device including a first image display unit of a first person in communication is communicating with the second communication device including the second image display unit of a second person in communication through a relay center; copying said modification pattern from the thus read out contents; registering the thus copied modification pattern in such a manner that said first person in communication or said first communication device is capable of using said modification pattern; reading out by the first communication device said modification pattern registered by means of said registering step; and reproducing and displaying said readout modification pattern on the first image display unit of the first communication device, the second image display unit of the second communication device or an image display device of the relay center, wherein said modification pattern modifies a related image related to said first person in communication within said transmission image. - View Dependent Claims (26)

27. An apparatus of reproducing a modification pattern of a transmission image, comprising
first reading means for reading out contents associated with a modification pattern modifying the transmission image to be displayed on a second image display unit of a second communication device when a first communication device including a first image display unit of a first person in communication is communicating with the second communication device including the second image display unit of a second person in communication through a relay center; -
copying means for copying said modification pattern from the contents read out by said reading means; storing means for registering and storing said modification pattern copied by said copying means in such a manner that said first person in communication or said first communication device is capable of using said modification pattern; second reading means for reading out said modification pattern registered by said storing means and provided in the first communication device; and reproducing means for reproducing and displaying said read-out modification pattern on the first image display unit of the first communication device, the second image display unit of the second communication device or an image display device of the relay center, wherein said modification pattern modifies a related image related to said first person in communication within said transmission image. - View Dependent Claims (28)
