Patent number: 9689688Abstract: A mobile terminal obtains image data related to a product posted on a flier by imaging and sends the image data related to the product to a shopping management server. Upon reception of the image data related to the product from the mobile terminal, the shopping management server determines the product by analyzing the image data related to the product, obtains at least one of inventory information and sales information of the product, and sends at least one of the inventory information and the sales information of the product to the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal combines computer-graphics image data indicating at least one of the inventory information and the sales information of the product sent from the shopping management server with an image of the flier in real space and presents the combined image, thereby solving the problem.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2014Date of Patent: June 27, 2017Assignee: NS Solutions CorporationInventors: Kazuhiro Sasao, Masaru Yokoyama, Arata Sakurai, Ricardo Musashi Okamoto

Patent number: 8659635Abstract: HMDs and compact cameras generate image data of display media of users, and transmit the data to a conference management server. HMDs and compact cameras further generate presentation information of the users for a conference, and transmit the information to the conference management server. The conference management server verifies the display medium by comparing an association between each user and the image data of the display medium used by the user with an association between the received image data of the display medium for the user and the user. If the verification is successful, the server transmits presentation information of the users for the conference received from the HMDs and the compact cameras to the HMDs.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2011Date of Patent: February 25, 2014Assignee: NS Solutions CorporationInventors: Noboru Ihara, Kazuhiro Sasao, Masaru Yokoyama, Arata Sakurai
