20110117849 | COMMUNICATION SYSTEM AND COMMUNICATION METHOD - The present invention relates to a communication system and a communication method for simply and quickly starting communication. A cellular phone is loaded with a non-contact IC card that communicates with a reader/writer of a personal computer using an electromagnetic wave. When the non-contact IC card receives the electromagnetic wave emitted from the reader/writer with the cellular phone placed close to the personal computer, the cellular phone notifies the personal computer of a card ID set in the non-contact IC card. When the personal computer acquires Bluetooth device names of the cellular phone and PDA with intra-piconet synchronization established between the cellular phone and the PDA, the personal computer identifies the cellular phone as a communication partner based on the Bluetooth device names already notified of as the card ID. The present invention is applicable to an information processing apparatus such as a personal computer and a cellular phone. | 05-19-2011 |

20120214475 | REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM AND REMOTE CONTROL METHOD, DEVICE FOR PERFORMING REMOTE CONTROL OPERATION AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, DEVICE OPERABLE BY REMOTE CONTROL OPERATION AND CONTROL MEHTOD THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A portable information terminal is placed in proximity with an ID recognition unit of a notebook PC. By reading ID from the portable information terminal, the notebook PC is able to identify a network address of the portable information terminal so as to establish a network connection with the portable information terminal. The notebook PC then sends suitable operation information to the portable information terminal via a network. For example, if presentation is running on the notebook PC, screen information for operating the presentation is transferred to the portable information terminal. Accordingly, by using one device connected to the other device by a wired or wireless network, the operation of the other device can be controlled. | 08-23-2012 |
