Abstract: An electronic mail system includes plural user terminal apparatuses, a distribution apparatus, an information providing apparatus, and a storage device. The distribution apparatus distributes an electronic mail to a specified destination in response to a distribution request for distributing the electronic mail. The distribution request is sent from any of the plural user terminal apparatuses. Each of the plural user terminal apparatuses includes a display processing unit that performs a process to display a list of electronic mails, a detecting unit that detects a process, and a process detection information sending unit that sends process detection information. The information providing apparatus includes a registration unit that obtains and registers the process detection information, a history information generating unit that generates history information, and a history information sending unit that sends the generated history information.

Abstract: Provided is a device that records or outputs information, which acquires a first image to be a display target, judges whether at least a part of the acquired first image is a preset non-target image, and determines whether the acquired first image is an image to be recorded or output. When it is determined that the acquired first image is the image to be recorded or output as a result of the determination, the device records or outputs the acquired first image.

Abstract: An information processing system includes a recognition portion that recognizes a document shown in a given space, a detection portion that detects an event occurring in the given space, and an index-giving portion that gives information on the event detected by the detection portion to the information on the document recognized by the recognition portion, as an index for search.

Abstract: An information retrieval system includes an information extracting portion that extracts episodic information to be set as a cue for searching conference record information that stores contents on a conference for personal information, and an information storage portion that stores the episodic information extracted from the information extracting portion and the personal information associated with the episodic information. The personal information of a participant is searched for, personal information being obtained from the conference that a system user attended.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes: an acquisition portion that acquires position/direction information indicative of a position and a direction of a projection device; a selection portion that selects at least one piece of drawing data from a plurality of pieces of drawing data relating to parts provided in an object; a generation portion that generates a projection drawing from the drawing data selected by the selection portion; a conversion portion that calculates a distance between the object and the projection device, and a direction of the projection device from the position/direction information, and converts the projection drawing into a perspective drawing by using the calculated distance and the calculated direction; and a control portion that controls the projection device so as to project the perspective drawing onto the object.

Abstract: An information processing system includes a memory portion that stores image information of a space in association with a document, the image information being captured by an image capturing portion, the document being used while the space being captured, a receiving portion that receives information that specifies the document as a search request, and a search portion that searches the image information stored on the memory portion for a scene associated with the document specified by the search request, on the basis of the search request.
