  • Publication number: 20250024259
    Abstract: A wireless LAN communication system which achieves convenience where a terminal of a user who is external to an organization can temporarily use the system while ensuring security. For example, a first terminal is used by a user internal to an organization and a second terminal is used by a user external to the organization. A communication device has a display function and the first terminal connects to the communication device via a wireless LAN access point device. The second terminal connects, under permission from the first terminal, to the communication device via the wireless LAN access point. The second terminal uses the display function of the communication device through the connection via the wireless LAN access point. The first terminal and the communication device confirm whether the permission is to be continued or terminated to make the second terminal unable to use the display function.

  • Publication number: 20240430529
    Abstract: A mobile terminal has a communication processing unit that transmits, to a video display apparatus for displaying a broadcasted video content, a request for setting a viewing schedule of the video content. A storage unit stores a starting time of the video content for which the setting of the viewing schedule has been requested; and an information provision unit provides information to a user of the mobile terminal. A control unit determines whether the video display apparatus is existent around the mobile terminal. At a first predetermined time before the starting time, the information provision unit notifies the user of the first predetermined time. If the video display apparatus is not existent around the mobile terminal at a second predetermined time before the starting time, the information provision unit then notifies the user that it is the second predetermined time before the starting time.
