  • Patent number: 7739610
    Abstract: In a service providing system, a live-distribution service for live-distributing contents supplied according to a reservation, and a chat service for providing the use of a chat space corresponding to the reservation for the live distribution are provided. When a personal computer and another personal computer use the live-distribution service and the chat service, they need to be authenticated by a streaming server and a communication server. For authentication, both the streaming server and the communication server use a shared password registered in a reservation data base when the live distribution is reserved.

  • Patent number: 7721215
    Abstract: In a service providing system, a live-distribution service for live-distributing contents supplied according to a reservation, and a chat service for providing the use of a chat space corresponding to the reservation for live distribution are provided. After the live distribution finishes, a communication server sends the whole or a part of the contents of chatting performed in the chat space corresponding to the reservation for the live distribution, to a personal computer. With this, even if the user of the personal computer, who supplies the contents, could not participate in a chat with a user of another personal computer while capturing the contents, for example, the user of the personal computer can check the contents of the chat later.

  • Patent number: 7386193
    Abstract: Notification of upload of a fixed point observation image to a server. A response program captures a fixed point observation image upon controlling a camera through a camera control program. An image analysis program analyzes the captured image and sends the result of analysis to the response program that, then, makes the camera control program control and make the camera capture image based on setup data and under timing set in response to the result of analysis; the captured image is then uploaded to an image management server. A response program of the image management server acquires the uploaded image and stores the image in an image database (image DB) while reading out a transmission destination from a setup DB, then controls a mailing program so as to transmit notification of upload of the fixed point observation image to the PC. The present invention may be applied to an image management system.

  • Publication number: 20040181662
    Abstract: This invention is intended to build a system with service cores integrated. A user terminal sends authentication information and area information to an image service providing server via a network. The image service providing server receives the authentication information and the area information from the user terminal, selects an authentication server of an area corresponding to the area information from among authentication servers of all areas, and sends the authentication information received from the user terminal to the selected authentication server via the network. The authentication server receives the authentication information of the user terminal from the image service providing server and executes the authentication of the user terminal on the basis of the received authentication information. The present invention is applicable to image service providing systems which provide image-based services.
