  • Patent number: 11303708
    Abstract: A display control unit causes a projector display unit to display host-specifying information based on a first host address of a first IP address allocated to a projector. A communication establishment unit specifies, when the host-specifying information is inputted via an input unit, a third IP address based on the inputted host-specifying information and a second network address of a second IP address allocated to a communication terminal. The communication establishment unit executes communication establishment processing to establish communication between the projector and the communication terminal, using the third IP address.

  • Patent number: 10979562
    Abstract: When a call session is set over an IP network between a calling IP phone and a called IP phone at the start of a call, information on the quality of communication between a host IP phone and a recording server is exchanged to compare the quality of communication of the two IP phones in each of the calling IP phone and the called IP phone. For example, the called IP phone, or a host IP phone, with a higher quality of communication than the calling IP phone of a conversing party transmits call audio data to the recording server as recording data. Meanwhile, the calling IP phone, or a host IP phone, with a lower quality of communication than the called IP phone of a conversing party refrains from transmitting the call audio data to the recording server.
