The memory stores one or more first applications, and a second application that activates the one or more first applications. The circuitry is configured to execute the second application to, receive selection of a particular first application of the one or more first applications, the particular first application being configured to perform processing to conduct a particular event, and send an event start request requesting to start the particular event to the particular first application. The circuitry is configured to execute the particular first application to perform processing to start the particular event identified by the event start request sent from the second application.

Abstract: An electronic whiteboard includes a power button, a display device, and circuitry that implements processes of detecting an operation of the power button being turned off, storing at least a part of visible information displayed on the display device from a time the power button was turned on until a time the power button was turned off in a first storage device upon detecting that the power button has been turned off, determining whether to display the visible information stored in the first storage device on the display device based on a first time corresponding to a power-on time recorded when the power button was turned on and a second time corresponding to the power-off time recorded immediately before the first time when the power button was turned off, and controlling the display device to display the stored visible information upon determining to display the stored visible information.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus is communicable with a speech recognition apparatus via a network includes circuitry. The circuitry implements a speech recognition function that performs speech recognition on audio data collected by an audio collecting device. The circuitry selects, as a destination to which the audio data is to be output, one of the speech recognition apparatus and the speech recognition function implemented by the circuitry, based on a state of communication between the information processing apparatus and an external system connected to the information processing apparatus via the network.
