  • Publication number: 20220080826
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus that controls scenery display according to a current position of a mobile body is provided. The information processing apparatus includes a detection unit that detects a region where a predetermined object outside the mobile body appears within a window of the mobile body, a display unit that displays a transmissive region and a non-transmissive region within the window, and a control unit that controls the display unit on the basis of a detection result obtained by the detection unit. The detection unit detects an appearance place where the object appears in the window, on the basis of a current position of the mobile body, a moving speed and a traveling direction of the mobile body, and position information associated with the object. Thereafter, a transmissive region is displayed in the region where the object appears, or a non-transmissive region that masks a region where the object is absent is displayed in the window.

  • Patent number: 11165869
    Abstract: An arrangement to direct a packet sent out from an arbitrary apparatus connected to a network to a predetermined authentication server without changing the configuration of a computer network. A packet transmitted from apparatus, such as a personal computer, newly connected to the network, is guided to an authentication server via communication control apparatus. The communication control apparatus replaces a MAC address of the destination addresses of another server, which is included in the ARP cache of the personal computer, with the MAC address of the communication control apparatus to guide the packet from the personal computer to the communication control apparatus. The communication control apparatus further transmits the received packet to a predetermined authentication server.
