  • Patent number: 11915504
    Abstract: A home user interface (UI) system for managing digital ink is provided. The home UI system includes a plurality of state sensors capable of detecting a state in a house or a change in the state, and a plurality of home-use devices that are provided in the house or that form part of the house and that each include a handwriting sensor capable of detecting handwriting made by a person. The home UI system further includes one or more notification units that are configured to notify the person of the existence of the home-use device or a detectable region of the handwriting sensor of the home-use device. The home UI system further includes a controller which, when it is determined that a notification is necessary from a detection result of one or more of the state sensors, instructs at least one of the notification units to carry out the notification.

  • Publication number: 20240040079
    Abstract: The present technology is to enable a transmitter device to read appropriate device information (EDID) from a receiver device with a reduced burden on the user. A memory unit that stores first device information and second device information, and a communication unit that communicates with an external device are included. The control unit determines to cause the external device to read the second device information, on the basis of reception of a rewrite signal for the first device information from the external device. It is possible to cause the external device (a transmitter device) to read appropriate device information (EDID) from a receiver device (a reception device) with a reduced burden on the user, and thus, user-friendliness can be increased.

  • Publication number: 20140014721
    Abstract: In a server; a ticket allotting unit generates, in response to a first request from a first user, first-type image code and stores the first-type information in a management database (DB) in a manner corresponding to a second user. Moreover, in response to a second request from the first user, generates second-type image code which is different from the first-type image code and stores the second-type image code in the management DB in a manner corresponding to a third user. Then, for example, a QR returning unit invalidates the first-type information stored in the management DB and validates the second-type information stored in the management DB. Then, a QR displaying unit sends the second-type image code to the third user.
