Abstract: An identification processing apparatus of the present disclosure includes a memory that stores recognition information based on which an authorized person, who has been authorized to utilize at least part of an account for non-cash settlement, is recognized; an identification circuit configured to acquire an identification request that includes identification information from a settlement terminal installed at a store, and performs an identification process, to identify authorized person, by matching the recognition information with the identification information, the store being where the authorized person purchases a commercial product by utilizing the account; and a communication circuit configured to receive the identification information from the settlement terminal, and transmit a result of the identification to the settlement terminal.

Abstract: An electronic device includes: a communication unit that communicates with a first device through intra-body communication via a body of a user or near field communication; a position obtaining unit that obtains position information of the user; and a storage unit that stores information on use of the first device on a basis of a communication history between the first device and the communication unit, and the position information of the user, and can easily record play information.

Abstract: An electronic device includes: a communication unit (21, 22, 31, 31) that performs a near field communication or an intra-body communication with a container-side communication unit (11, 12) that is provided on a container (50B) that is capable of housing substance or a cover that covers at least a part of the container; and an input unit (28, 43) that inputs information relating to the substance in the container via the container-side communication unit and the communication unit.

Abstract: An image inputting apparatus includes: an input unit that inputs an original image file including at least an image data region in which image data is stored and an appended information region; a decision unit that decides whether or not falsification of the original image file is prohibited, based upon the appended information; a file modification unit that modifies the original image file to create a new image file in which the appended information region is expanded; and a store control unit that disallows the file modification unit to create the new image file and stores the original image file just as it is if the decision unit has decided that falsification of the inputted original image file is prohibited, and that makes the file modification unit create the new image file and stores the new image file if the decision unit has decided that falsification of the inputted original image file is not prohibited.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes: an input unit that inputs an image as an input image, the image being recorded in correlation with information related to ground point of photography; an image selection unit that selects, as selected images, a plurality of images from among the input images input by the input section; a region extraction unit that extracts a map region on the basis of a number of the selected images included in a predetermined region upon the map, the predetermined region including the ground points of the selected images selected by the image selection unit; and a display unit that displays the map region extracted by the region extraction unit with photographic ground point signs, the photographic ground point manifesting the ground point of the selected image.
