The information transmission and service integration system includes an interface registry repository, a device gateway, and a service gateway. The interface registry repository stores device interface meta-data (DIMD) of the information transmission device and service interface meta-data (SIMD) of the service providing terminal. The device gateway detects and adapts the information transmission device according to the DIMD information. The service gateway transforms and transmits the message between the information transmission device and the service providing terminal according to the DIMD information and the SIMD information. Thereby, the information transmission and service integration system can automatically establish an information transmission channel between the information transmission device and the server-providing terminal. ## Claims ### Claim 1 An information transmission and service integration system, for transmitting a message between at least one information transmission device and at least one service providing terminal, the information transmission and service integration system comprising: an interface registry repository, for storing and managing device interface meta-data (DIMD) of the at least one information transmission device and service interface meta-data (SIMD) of the at least one service providing terminal;
