`Exhibit 2
`
`’675 patent, Claim 6
`
`6[pre]. An output-content control method comprising:
`[a] acquiring a voice spoken by a user;
`[b] calculating a distance between the user and an output-content control device by a proximity
`sensor to classify the voice into either a first voice or a second voice based on the
`calculated distance;
`[c] analyzing the acquired voice to detect intention information indicating what kind of
`information is wished to be acquired by the user;
`[d] acquiring notification information which includes content information as a content of
`information to be notified to the user based on the intention information; and
`[e] generating, when the voice is determined to be the first voice, a first output sentence in
`which at least one word selected among words included in the content information of the
`notification information is replaced with another word; and
`[f] generating, when the voice is not determined to be the second voice, a second output
`sentence which includes all of the intention information and the content information.

`
`’675 patent, Claim 6
`
`’675 patent, Claims 1-5
`
`6[pre]. An output-content control method
`comprising:
`[a] acquiring a voice spoken by a user;
`[b] calculating a distance between the user
`and an output-content control device by a
`proximity sensor to classify the voice into
`either a first voice or a second voice based
`on the calculated distance;
`[c] analyzing the acquired voice to detect
`intention information indicating what kind
`of information is wished to be acquired by
`the user;
`[d] acquiring notification information which
`includes content information as a content
`of information to be notified to the user
`based on the intention information; and
`[e] generating, when the voice is determined
`to be the first voice, a first output sentence
`in which at least one word selected among
`words included in the content information
`of the notification information is replaced
`with another word; and
`[f] generating, when the voice is not
`determined to be the second voice, a
`second output sentence which includes all
`of the intention information and the
`content information.
`
`1[pre]. An output-content control device
`comprising:
`[a] a voice acquiring unit configured to
`acquire a voice spoken by a user;
`[b] a voice classifying unit configured to
`calculate a distance between the user and
`the output-content control device by a
`proximity sensor to classify the voice into
`either a first voice or a second voice based
`on the calculated distance;
`[c] an intention analyzing unit configured to
`analyze the voice acquired by the voice
`acquiring unit to detect intention
`information indicating what kind of
`information is wished to be acquired by
`the user;
`[d] a notification-information acquiring unit
`configured to acquire notification
`information which includes content
`information as a content information to be
`notified to the user based on the intention
`information; and
`[e] an output-content generating unit
`configured to generate an output sentence
`as sentence data to be output to the user
`based on the notification information,
`wherein the output-content generating unit
`is further configured to generate, when the
`voice is determined to be the first voice, a
`first output sentence in which at least one
`word selected among words included in
`the content information of the notification
`information is replaced with another word,
`and to generate, when the voice is not
`determined to be the second voice, a
`second output sentence which includes all
`of the intention information and the
`content information.
`
`2[pre]. The output-content control device
`according to claim 1, wherein
`[a] the notification information includes type
`information indicating a type of the
`
`2
`
`
`
`Case 3:24-cv-00540-MHL Document 17-2 Filed 09/30/24 Page 4 of 5 PageID# 187
`
`content information, and
`[b] the output-content generating unit is
`further configured to select, on generating
`the first output sentence, at least one word
`to be placed with the other word based on
`a word included in the content information
`and the type information that is associated
`with the content information.
`
`3[pre]. The output-content control device
`according to claim 2, wherein
`[a] the output-content generating unit is
`further configured to read, on generating
`the first output sentence, relationship
`information including information of a
`first word that is a predetermined word
`and a second word that is associated with
`the first word, and to replace a word
`included in the notification information
`with the second word when the word
`included in the notification information
`matches with the first word.
`
`4[pre]. The output-content control device
`according to claim 3, wherein
`[a] the relationship information further
`includes information of type information
`indicating a type of the first word, and
`[b] the output-content generating unit is
`further configured to select, on generating
`the first output sentence, a word included
`in the notification information as word to
`be replaced with another word when the
`type information of the word included in
`the notification information matches with
`the type information of the first word and
`the word included in the notification
`information matches with the first word.
`
`5[pre]. The output-content control device
`according to claim 1, wherein
`[a] the voice classifying unit is further
`configured to determine the voice to be
`the predetermined voice when the voice
`spoken by the user is a whisper.

`
`’675 patent, Claim 6
`
`’675 patent, Claim 7
`
`6[pre]. An output-content control method
`comprising:
`[a] acquiring a voice spoken by a user;
`[b] calculating a distance between the user

`[c] analyzing the acquired voice to detect
`intention information indicating what kind
`of information is wished to be acquired by
`the user;
`[d] acquiring notification information which
`includes content information as a content
`of information to be notified to the user
`based on the intention information; and
`[e] generating, when the voice is determined
`to be the first voice, a first output sentence
`in which at least one word selected among

`of the intention information and the
`content information.
`
`7[pre]. A non-transitory storage medium that
`stores an output-content control program
`that causes a computer to execute:
`[a] acquiring a voice spoken by a user;
`[b] calculating a distance between the user
`and an output-content control device by a
`proximity sensor to classify the voice into
