Abstract: The risk of a third party able to conduct pairing is reduced, and operation is also made simple. In S1 the radio wave strength of a pairing signal received first is measured and retained. In S2 the message “Come a little closer” is displayed. In S4 it is determined from the radio wave strength whether or not the current distance is within a given range with respect to an instructed distance. In S5 it is determined whether or not the number of determinations in which the current distance is determined to be within the given range has reached a set number of determinations. In a second determination the message “Now move away a little” is displayed. If the second determination becomes positive, S6 (pairing registration) is performed.

Abstract: A data communication system and method in which a need to store a frame count value in a non-volatile memory and update the frame count value is obviated, and in which the effect resulting when a frame with its frame count value altered to a value close to a full count value is transmitted is reduced. When a valid frame count value is not held, an inquiry is made for a frame count value. The frame count value is notified from the receiving end, and the frame count value is acquired. An encryption key is generated on the basis of the frame count value. Data is encrypted with the encryption key. Data in a frame structure is transmitted. When the frame transmission ends, the frame count value is incremented.

Abstract: To preferably present a stereoscopic image to a viewer by controlling opening and closing timing of shutter lenses through intermittent communication between a display device and shutter glasses. A display device 11, when recognizing switchover timing of a display mode in advance, commands continuous reception using periodically transmitting synchronization packet. Since shutter glasses 13 starts the continuous reception in advance, even if the display device 11 transmits a packet commanding switchover of the display mode at any timing when display on a display panel 210 is switched over from 3D to 2D, the shutter glasses 13 can receive the packet for the switchover in appropriate shutter opening and closing control.

Abstract: A remote control apparatus is disclosed, which radio transmits a control command from a remote controller to a reception apparatus connected to an electronic device which is an apparatus under control. The reception apparatus stores a first identification information which represents a destination remote controller. When the remote controller issues a pairing start command, the remote control apparatus transmits a pairing request containing second identification information of the remote controller itself. The reception apparatus extracts the second identification information from the received pairing request and decides that the remote controller is a pairing party if the first identification information matches the second identification information. The reception apparatus transmits a pairing response containing third identification information of the reception apparatus itself to the remote controller.

Abstract: An information processing device may include a control unit to control display of an interface on a display of the device based on a use place at which the device is located. The use place may be specified by identification information of an apparatus in which the device is installed.

Abstract: By describing electrical program guide information in a language such as XML and then multiplexing the electrical program guide information to a broadcast signal for transmission, advertisements, images and sounds can be easily entered and various program guides can be realized. For manufacturers of receiving devices, it suffices to develop only the software for receiving, decoding and displaying received XML data. There is no need to develop the software for displaying the EPG for each type of receiving device. Thus, the number of development steps can be reduced.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus including an audio input unit, an amplifier unit, and a controller. The audio input unit is capable of converting audio into an electric audio signal. The amplifier unit is configured to amplify the audio signal obtained by the audio input unit and capable of performing auto gain control. The controller is configured to turn off the auto gain control of the amplifier unit when an application that uses an audio recognition is executed with respect to the amplified audio signal.

Abstract: A remote control method for a device under control which selects one of an information signal of the device under control and an information signal from at least one external device is disclosed. The device under control is inquired about an information signal selection state when a key in common with the device under control and the external device is operated on an operation section. A remote control signal corresponding to the key that has been operated is transmitted to the device under control when the information signal selection state replied from the device under control represents a signal selection state of the device under control. A remote control signal corresponding to the key that has been operated is transmitted to the external device when the information signal selection state replied from the device under control represents a signal selection state of the external device.
