Abstract: An information providing system includes a display unit installed in a table and having on the table, a display screen that displays an image of a product; a detecting unit that detects placement of an object at the position of the displayed image; and a display control unit that causes content related to the product to be displayed on the display screen when placement of the object at the position of the image is detected by the detecting unit.

Abstract: A communication apparatus for communicating with a storage unit and portable display apparatus, the communication apparatus includes, a receiver for receiving an identification information from the portable display apparatus when the portable display apparatus is placed upon the board, an acquisition unit for acquiring from the storage unit the information related to the identification information which is received from the portable display apparatus, and a transmitter for transmitting to the portable display apparatus the information which is acquired by the acquisition unit.

Abstract: A goods selection apparatus for selecting goods on the basis of displayed goods information. The goods selection apparatus includes a display unit for displaying goods information, a detector for detecting individually a plurality of potential customers in front of the display unit, a control unit for controlling the display unit to display a plurality of display areas in the display unit, each of the display areas displaying information of respective one of the goods, the number of the plurality of display areas corresponding to the number of the plurality of potential customers detected by the detector, an input unit for receiving an input designating any one of the display areas by any of the potential customers; and a selector for selecting one of the goods corresponding to the one of display areas designated by the input unit.

Abstract: An information providing method includes writing to a storage area of a communication apparatus embedded in a surrounding member of a transparent panel, distribution information related to preliminarily stored content; displaying on a screen provided on the transparent panel, display information related to the content for which the distribution information has been read at the writing; and transmitting to a communication terminal near the transparent panel by wireless communication, the distribution information stored in the storage area of the communication apparatus.

Abstract: A computer readable medium for storing information display programs causing a computer communicating with a communication apparatus provided at the entry or exit at an entrance/exit point where a user gets on or off a transportation system to perform a display method, the display method include: detecting that the user has left the exit of the current entrance/exit point through the communication between a communication apparatus; identifying the next entrance/exit point to the current entrance/exit point among the entrance/exit points within the route; acquiring map showing the route from the current entrance/exit point to the next entrance/exit point identified by the identifying the next entrance/exit point to the current entrance/exit point; and controlling a display screen of the computer so as to display the map showing the route from the current entrance/exit point to the next entrance/exit point acquired by the acquiring map.

Abstract: A monitoring system that monitors a person, the monitoring system including: a camera that captures an image of the individual; a transmission device that transmits an image; and, a processing device that is configured to: detect a change in facial expression of the individual from an image captured by the camera; identify the individual with the change in facial expression; and, transmit to a destination associated with the identified individual an image including the change in facial expression through the transmission device.

Abstract: A write strategy circuit and a write strategy method for capturing data are disclosed. A strategy clock generator generates a strategy clock signal based on a channel clock signal. A phase controller produces a capturing channel clock signal by controlling a phase of the channel clock signal in synchronization with the strategy clock signal. A data capturing circuit captures the data in synchronization with the capturing channel clock signal. A phase determination circuit determines whether a length of the data corresponds to a predetermined value. A strategy correction circuit applies a predetermined strategy correction to the data based on the strategy clock signal. In this case, the phase controller controls the phase of the channel clock signal based on a determination result of the phase determination circuit. An optical disk apparatus using the write strategy circuit or the write strategy method is also disclosed.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus, which is connectable to a telephone, comprises a processor, a display device, and an input device. The processor displays information which is to be displayed on the telephone, on the display device. In response to an operation of the input device by a user, the processor sends a control signal which is adapted to control the telephone.

Abstract: A first program schedule of a receivable broadcast channel is stored in a memory device. A program in the first program schedule broadcast in a particular period of time is mapped into a second program schedule by a controller to thereby set a virtual channel including the second program schedule. When a user selects the virtual channel, the controller replays the broadcast program in accordance with the second program schedule of the virtual channel.

Abstract: A process controller controls the information display of a display device and performs a transaction procedure based on the information input from the input device via the input controller. The process controller has a group display unit. The group display unit previously groups display information to the screen of the display device based on an input made by a user via the input device and the internal state of the process controller for each associative information, and displays the display information on the screen of the display device group by group in a systematically organized form. The state of a transfer procedures is displayed by three general groups affixed with, for example, tabs, and an input format in the style of the image of a slip. This allows the user to easily grasp the operation state during operation and also presents a friendlier input style to the user.

Abstract: A display device displays information. An input device inputs information about a transaction. An operation unit includes a selection requesting unit and a selection processor. The selection requesting unit requests a user to input information in an alternative style via the display device. The selection processor performs a predetermined process based on information, selectively input by the user through the display device and a selection input unit of the input device, and the internal state. A transaction processor performs a transactional process based on the transactional operation of the operation unit. The transaction processor communicates with a host system in a center to accomplish a transaction.
