摘要:
The present invention relates to a communication system and method, an information processing terminal and method, and an information processing device and method which enable simple and secure restricted access. When a PDA 11 is brought close, a reader 2 of a personal computer 1 reads a device ID form an IC tag 12. The personal computer 1 registers device IDs on a connection permission list, and permits only devices registered on the list to connect. When being instructed to perform accessing, the PDA 11 controls a communication unit to access the personal computer 1 and to transmits its device ID. The personal computer 1 determines whether or not the transmitted ID is registered on the connection permission list, and permits the connection when determining that the ID is registered. The present invention can be applied to various information processing devices such as a personal computer and a PDA.

A user is enabled to easily access a data area on a network, and to use the data area with security, wherein a recording medium records an address for accessing a prescribed area of a storage apparatus installed in an other apparatus and keys to be used for encrypting data. When the recording medium is installed in the apparatus, the address is read-out from the recording medium and, based on the read-out address, accessing to the prescribed area is started. When the user actually accesses the recording medium, the prescribed area is accessed. In the apparatus to which the recording medium is installed, processing such as a path conversion is carried out as required so that the user is able to operate without mentioning such procedure.

The present invention is an information processing apparatus which obtains identification information of an electronic device and makes communication with the electronic device via a network based on the identification information. When a portable telephone (11) is placed on an input display section (2) of a personal computer (1), a reader/writer built in the personal computer (1) reads a telephone number of the portable telephone (11) stored in an RF tag built in the portable telephone (11). Based on the telephone number, a telephone line is connected between the portable telephone (11) and the personal computer (1). Data is interchanged between the portable telephone (11) and the personal computer (1) via the telephone line.

Disclosed herein is an information processing device for recognizing a two-dimensional code in which predetermined information is coded by two-dimensionally arranging a plurality of cells according to a predetermined arrangement rule, the information processing device including detecting means and obtaining means. In the information processing device, the detecting means detects the position determining part on a basis of binarized data obtained as a result of binarizing the image of the two-dimensional code on a basis of a first threshold value. The obtaining means detects the arrangement rule of the cells present in the area identified by the position determining part on a basis of binarized data obtained as a result of binarizing the area identified by the position determining part on a basis of a second threshold value different from the first threshold value, and obtains the predetermined information.

A camera system has: cameras; and an information-processing device connected through a communication network with the cameras, which acquires a shot image from the cameras. Each camera includes: an image-pickup part taking an image of a subject; and an image-pickup synchronizing part mutually synchronizing an image-pickup timing of the camera with an image-pickup timing of another camera. The information-processing device includes: a synchronous shot image-acquiring part acquiring shot images taken by the cameras at a common timing from the cameras; an image-evaluating part evaluating the condition of the subject in the shot image for each of the shot images taken at a common timing acquired by the synchronous shot image-acquiring part based on predetermined evaluation criteria to assign an evaluation value to each shot image; a prioritizing part assigning a priority to each shot image according to the evaluation value assigned to each shot image by the image-evaluating part; and a display control part making a display device display the shot images according to priorities assigned to the shot images by the prioritizing part.

The present invention relates to an information providing system, an information providing method, an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a communication terminal, for providing requested information in an easy manner. In an information board 1, guides about information which can be provided are displayed on display units 2A to 2D. A PDA 11 includes a non-contact IC card, and a reader/writer is disposed in each of information requesting units 3A to 3D. The information board 1 acquires information to be provided to the PDA 11, depending on which one of readers/writers the PDA 11 is brought close to, and establishes Bluetooth communication with the PDA 11 in accordance with a Bluetooth address, acquired from the non-contact IC card, of the PDA 11. After establishing the Bluetooth communication, the information board 1 provides the acquired information to the PDA 11 by means of the Bluetooth communication. The present invention may be applied to various types of information processing apparatuses for providing information to users.

Communication data including actually-photographed pictures is provided. The communication data consists of text data such as a sentence input by a user and a plurality of still pictures obtained by taking a picture of the user a plurality of times. Because the communication data includes visual information provided by a picture of a user, the communication data can more stimulate a user who receives the communication data than text-base communication data can. Furthermore, it is possible to represent a motion using a plurality of still pictures thereby transmitting a large amount of information. Because the motion is represented using only a plurality of still pictures, the data size is much smaller than is required to represent a motion using a moving picture.
摘要:
When a human body touches any of linear electrode array mutually isolated and arranged in X and Y directions of an input device, an inducing signal from wiring of a commercial power supply is transmitted by way of the human body, so that an inducing voltage is generated at the linear electrode to which the human body touches. The input device detects the inducing voltage and outputs the detected inducing voltage to a signal processing section. The signal processing section detects a coordinate where the input device detects the inducing voltage, identifies a frequency of the inducing signal transmitted by way of the human body, and outputs the information to an output terminal.
