  • Patent number: 9941589
    Abstract: There is provided a non-contact communication antenna including a first antenna pattern that is formed on one surface of a base material, and a second antenna pattern that is formed on a back surface of the one surface of the base material. The first antenna pattern includes a first coil section and a first electrode section. The second antenna pattern includes a second coil section and a second electrode section. Capacitance of the first electrode section and the second electrode section compensates a change in capacitance depending on a formation situation of the first coil section and the second coil section.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 21, 2014
    Date of Patent: April 10, 2018
    Assignee: Sony Corporation

  • Patent number: 8779972
    Abstract: An information processing terminal, including a request reception unit that receives a function request. A GPS signals reception unit that receives a GPS signal, and a current position measuring unit that determines the latitude and longitude of the current position of the information processing terminal based upon the GPS signal. A defining information recording unit in which defining information related to the functions that can be engaged at the information processing terminal is recorded. A function decision-making unit that makes a decision as to whether or not a function can be engaged based upon the defining information and the latitude and longitude of the current position having been measured by the current position measuring unit and a data read/write unit that reads/writes data from/into a data area among a plurality of data areas based upon the results of the decision made by the function decision-making unit.

  • Patent number: 8604902
    Abstract: A communication system includes a first information processing device, a plurality of processing portions, a storage portion, and a second information processing device. The first information processing device includes a processing command transmission portion that transmits to the second information processing device, by non-contact communication, a processing command that includes one of a plurality of identification information items. Each of the processing portions is uniquely associated with one of the identification information items. The storage portion stores a correspondence information item that indicates a correspondence between one of the identification information items and one of the processing portions.
