Abstract:
There is provided an information delivery apparatus including a receiving portion to receive location information of a mobile communication terminal at a given time and acquired date and time of the location information from the terminal, an event information storage portion to store event information including an event place, date and time, a delivery terminal selecting portion to select the mobile communication terminal to which the event information is to be delivered based on the location information and the acquired date and time of the location information and on the event place, date and time, and an event information delivery portion to deliver the event information to the selected mobile communication terminal. The delivery terminal selecting portion selects the mobile communication terminal whose location indicated by location information is within a predetermined range and whose acquired date and time of the location information are before the event date and time.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a display apparatus and a display method for realizing control for display operations by a user precisely reflecting the user's status, i.e., the user's intentions, visual state and physical conditions. Worn as an eyeglass-like or head-mount wearable unit for example, the display apparatus of the present invention enables the user to recognize visibly various images on the display unit positioned in front of the user's eyes thereby providing the picked up images, reproduced images, and received images. As control for various display operations such as switching between the display state and the see-through state, display operation mode and selecting sources, the display apparatus of the present invention acquires information about either behavior or physical status of the user, and determines either intention or status of the user in accordance with the acquired information, thereby controlling the display operation appropriately on the basis of the determination result.
Abstract:
According to some aspects, an image display apparatus is provided comprising a display apparatus comprising a display section and a controller. The controller may be configured to display a map image via the display section, set location specification information based on an input specifying a position on the map image, and transmit the location specification information to a server apparatus, receive image data transmitted from the server apparatus in response to the transmission of location specification information to the server apparatus, the received image data having been obtained by photographing by an imaging section of an imaging apparatus configured to be worn on a head of a user, and the received image data having been transmitted to the server apparatus from the imaging apparatus in addition to additional data comprising location information detected at a time when the image data was photographed.

The delivery terminal selecting portion selects the mobile communication terminal whose location indicated by location information is within a predetermined range and whose acquired date and time of the location information are before the event date and time.
Abstract:
An optical communication device, for performing communication between spatially separated points by using one or more laser beams, includes an angle correction device that corrects a direction of a light receiving system and an emission optical axis correction device, in which an angle error which is not corrected by the angle correction device is detected by a light receiving angle detection device, and the emission optical axis correction device is controlled according to a detected error amount, and an emission optical axis is corrected.
Abstract:
Power control can be performed for electronic apparatuses that are unable to connect to a network. A user accesses the URL of a power supply center, and downloads an application (S11). The application is downloaded for each individual electronic apparatus to be controlled. In S12, the user makes various settings. After the settings are complete, the power supply center 2 transmits a power-limiting signal (S2), and a communication device receives the power-limiting signal (S13). If it is determined in S14 that the power-limiting function is set active, the application is started in S16. In S17, the kind of the communication that has been set is infrared. If the kind of the communication is infrared, in S18, a power-limiting signal is transmitted to a target electronic apparatus via infrared communication.
