  • Publication number: 20170186040
    Abstract: A display device for playing a video and a management server are connected via a network. In the management server, identification information of a portable terminal used by a user is registered. During playback of the video, the display device establishes short-range communication with the portable terminal in the vicinity thereof, and repeatedly obtains the identification information at a predetermined time interval in order to create a viewing record. The viewing record is transmitted to the management server in appropriate timing. If the portable terminal is in the vicinity of the display device, it can be considered that the user of the portable terminal is likely to be viewing an image displayed on the display device, and thus, the viewing result on the image provided by a plurality of the display devices installed all around the town can be managed by creating the viewing record.

  • Publication number: 20170178194
    Abstract: Advertisement information is effectively provided to a portable terminal such as a smart phone via a network. An information provision system comprises a management server that stores video data and a portable terminal. The portable terminal obtains the video data from the management server as appropriate via a network and save it thereon. When a user performs a startup operation for restoring the portable terminal from a sleep state, the portable terminal plays the video by giving priority thereto over a startup screen. A playback history of videos is reported to the management server, and the user receives privileges based on the playback history. In this manner, information is effectively provided though videos while the user is watching the screen during the startup operation. In addition, the effectiveness of the information provision is improved as the user has motivation to view videos because of the privileges to be given.
