Abstract: An information acquisition system includes a communication terminal that reads an information code storing the point information and a service ID; and a server that stores point information and a service ID in association with each other, the communication terminal accessing the server and acquiring the point information from the server. The communication terminal extracts the point information and the service ID from the information code to transmit to the server the point information and the service ID. At a time of reception of the point information and the service ID, the server extracts, from the point information stored in the server, association point information corresponding to the point information that correlates with the service ID received from the communication terminal, and transmits the association point information to the communication terminal. The communication terminal outputs the point information, and the association point information received from the server.

Abstract: An information provision system includes: a reading section that reads an information code; a situation acquisition section that acquires a situation when the information code is read by the reading section; a determination section that determines a situation when the information code is read, based on (i) read information that is obtained by decoding the information code that is read and (ii) the situation acquired by the situation acquisition section; a provided information generation section that generates provided information that is different from the read information, the provided information matching with the situation when the information code is read; and a provision section that provides the provided information that is generated.

Abstract: An information code image display system includes an area specifying part, an image generation part, and a display controller. The area specifying part specifies an area as a conversion target area, the area being a part of a base image displayed in a display area of a display part. The image generation part generates a base-image-attached information code image by applying an information code to a conversion target image corresponding to the conversion target area. The display controller displays in the display part the base-image-attached information code image and a remaining image obtained by excluding an image of the conversion target area from the base image.

Abstract: A map display device includes: a display unit; a moving-source area extraction unit that extracts a moving-source area including a moving-source point from the map; a moving-destination area extraction unit that extracts a moving-destination area including a moving-destination point from the map; a moving-destination area display position shift unit that retains a display position of the moving-source area on the display unit, and shifts a display position of the moving-destination area on the display unit; and a scale change unit that changes a scale of a part of the map between the moving-source area and the moving-destination area, whose display position has been shifted, and displays a whole of the map on the display unit.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus uses a bird's eye image for supporting a backing operation of a vehicle for parking. The bird's eye image is processed to display an area view that at least includes a parking lot captured in the image. Then, the area view is displayed in a display space in a display unit of the image processing apparatus for representing a parking area and related information. In this manner, the area view excludes unnecessary part from the bird's eye image for effectively providing a visual support for the backing operation by a driver of the vehicle.
