Abstract: According to an embodiment, an ingredient inquiry system includes a personal-information storing unit, an image input unit, an ingredient discriminating unit, an ingredient specifying unit, and a display. The personal-information storing unit stores, about each of a plurality of individuals, personal information for causing restriction about intake of ingredients used in food and drink. The image input unit inputs an image obtained by photographing the food and drink. The ingredient discriminating unit specifies the food and drink based on the image and discriminates the ingredients used in the food and drink. The ingredient specifying unit collates the personal information corresponding to each of the individuals and the ingredients discriminated by the ingredient discriminating unit and specifies the ingredients corresponding to each of the individuals. The display displays a list of the ingredients corresponding to each of the individuals specified by the ingredient specifying unit.

Abstract: A signature input device according to an embodiment includes a sign pad configured to output an electronic signature, an input pen configured to input the electronic signature to the sign pad, a three-dimensional position acquisition sensor configured to acquire three-dimensional position information of the input pen, and a control section configured to determine, if the input pen is separated from the sign pad, whether an electronic signature input support instructing motion is included in the three-dimensional position information and, if the electronic signature input support instructing motion is included, perform electronic signature input support processing on the electronic signature.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, a travel plan proposition apparatus includes a storage device and a processor. The processor performs determination of a question about a travel plan and obtaining of an answer to the question. Then, in a case where a plurality of combinations of the determined question and the obtained answer when determination of the question and obtaining of the answer are performed multiple times is partially similar to a plurality of combinations of the question and the answer included in the question-and-answer data stored in the storage device, the processor sends a travel plan indicated by the plan data stored in the storage device in association with the question-and-answer data as a plan to be proposed to a user to an information terminal.

Abstract: According to an embodiment, an information providing server performs an information providing service for providing information regarding a recommended dish suitable for cooking using a food that a customer has. The information providing server includes a processor and a storage device. The processor outputs dish data regarding the recommended dish on the basis of a list of foods that the customer has and data records stored in a dish database stored in the storage device. The processor then outputs presentation data including sales information regarding a food item lacking for cooking the recommended dish in a store.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus comprises a wireless communication module which establishes wireless communication with an external device; a radio field intensity measurement module; a radio field intensity display module; and a display control module. The display control module determines whether the radio field intensity tends to increase or decrease based on the measurement result of the radio field intensity by the radio field intensity measurement module, and updates the radio field intensity display to a display indicating a stronger radio field intensity if the radio field intensity tends to increase and the radio field intensity is equal to or larger than a first threshold value, or updates the radio field intensity display to a display indicating a weaker radio field intensity if the radio field intensity tends to decrease and the radio field intensity is less than a second threshold value smaller than the first threshold value.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a settlement terminal device settles a total amount, based on a prescribed currency, of purchased articles of a customer. The settlement terminal device has a display and a controller. The controller acquires a total amount in which the total amount based on the prescribed currency is exchanged into each currency kind capable of performing settlement. The controller makes the display comparably display the acquired total amount. Further, the controller makes the display display a signature column on the same screen as a screen on which the acquired total amount is displayed.
