Patent ID: 6873940

Claim:
A measuring service system comprising a server apparatus and a client apparatus connected to each other through an interactive communication line, such that the client apparatus sends measurement data, input thereto from a measured medium, to the server apparatus through the interactive communication line, while the server apparatus executes measurement processing on the basis of the measurement data to send data on the measurement processing results to the client apparatus through the interactive communication line, wherein said client apparatus comprises client-side modulation means for modulating the measurement data into signals suitable for transmission, and client-side demodulation means for demodulating the data on the measurement processing results into signals suitable for processing on said client apparatus, and said server apparatus comprises at least one measurement means capable of executing measurement processing on the basis of the measurement data, means for detecting whether the measurement data are capable of being measured by any measurement means in the said server apparatus, and notifying whether the measurement processing is available and server-side modulation means for modulating the data on the measurement processing results into signals suitable for transmission.
