Abstract:
An information processing apparatus is provided in in a hierarchical structure of at least three hierarchies, and communicates with another information processing apparatus that is present in the immediately above hierarchy in the hierarchical structure to determine whether a version of the software installed on the information processing apparatus matches a version of the software installed on the immediately above information processing apparatus. The information processing apparatus also acquires setup information from the immediately above information processing apparatus upon determining that the software version installed on the information processing apparatus matches that of the software installed in the immediately above information processing apparatus.
Abstract:
A distribution management apparatus includes a generator configured to generate still-picture data from content data, a converter configured to convert the still-picture data into video data, and a distributer configured to distribute the video data to each of a first communication terminal and a second communication terminal, which are capable of playing back and displaying the video data. When first operation data indicating an operation of zooming into a partial region of the video data being played back and displayed on the first communication terminal is transmitted, the converter generates video data representing a partial region, which depends on display/playback capabilities of the second communication terminal, of the video data being played back and displayed on the first communication terminal, and the distributer distributes the video data representing the partial region generated by the converter to the second communication terminal.
Abstract:
A display apparatus includes a detecting unit that detects terminal position information including information concerning a position of another display apparatus with respect to the display apparatus; and a display unit that displays a part of a given image based on the terminal position information detected by the detecting unit.
Abstract:
A distribution control system that is connected to one or more communication terminals that output image (sound) data and transmits the image (sound) data to the terminals. The system includes a browser management unit configured to start up a browser appropriate for the terminals; a browser configured to generate the image (sound) data by rendering content data; a transmitter configured to transmit the image (sound) data to the communication terminals; and a receiver configured to receive sensor information detected by a sensor included in the terminals. The browser is configured to process the received sensor information by a first processor that is installed in the browser as standard or a second processor that processes the sensor information that is unable to be processed by the first processor. The transmitter is configured to transmit the image (sound) data processed by the browser in accordance with the sensor information to the terminals.
Abstract:
A distribution control system includes a generating unit configured to generate image data from content data; a converting unit configured to convert the image data into transmission data; a transmitting unit configured to transmit the transmission data to a plurality of communication terminals; and a creating/selecting unit configured to newly create the converting unit to be assigned to each of the communication terminals or select the converting unit out of converting units already created.
Abstract:
A local video-conference terminal device includes a wide-angle camera lens, a camera image correction control unit that performs distortion correction processing on an image included in digital video signal from the wide-angle camera lens, a camera image correction table storage unit including correction tables for the distortion correction processing regarding a partial area of the image, a video display unit displaying the digital video signal after distortion correction, and a camera display switching key outputting a signal to select an image correction table. The camera image correction control unit performs the distortion correction processing on the image included in digital video signal using the image correction table selected by switching through the camera display switching key.

Abstract:
A distribution management apparatus includes: a receiving unit that receives operation information, which indicates operation input that a terminal has accepted, from the terminal via a network; a browser that creates drawing information to be displayed on the terminal from the operation information; an encoder that encodes the drawing information; and a transmitting unit that transmits the encoded drawing information to the terminal.
Abstract:
A network synchronizing system includes plural apparatuses. A first apparatus includes a first recording unit to record personal data of one or more users who can use the first apparatus to share the personal data with other apparatuses. A second apparatus includes a first setting unit to record personal data of one or more users who can use the second apparatus; and a first control unit to compare the personal data recorded in the first setting unit and the first recording unit and update the personal data recorded in the first setting unit of the second apparatus with the latest personal data for each user. The first control unit determines that users are the same user when data uniquely provided for the users in the personal data recorded in the first setting unit and the first recording unit are the same.
Abstract:
A multifunctional product connected with a plurality of terminals over a network includes an image information obtaining device that obtains image information, a document file storing device that stores the image information in a prescribed location as a document file, and a designating device that designates a prescribed terminal to receive the document file. A file transmission device is provided to transmit the document file to the prescribed terminal simultaneously when the document file storing device stores the image information in the document file.
