Abstract: In an AR device, when display control of additional information is performed for an object, a display device acquires a picture including an object in real space. An pointing device outputs, when pointing the object in real space by an operation of a user, information showing a feature for identifying the pointed object. A control device analyzes the picture by the display device and identifies objects in the picture. The control device outputs position information in the picture for the identified object. The control device outputs position information in the picture for the pointed object based on the outputted information from the pointing device. The control device extracts additional information of a target object from an additional information group of objects in real space. The control device performs display control of the additional information based on the calculated position information. The display device displays the additional information.

Abstract: A memory unit stores a plurality of transmission destinations. A control unit determines an order of priority of transmission destinations based on states of the plurality of transmission destinations that are stored by the memory unit, and then, upon receiving predetermined input, originates a call to the transmission destination having the highest order of priority of transmission destinations that was determined.

Abstract: The present invention provides a data processing unit which allows schedule data, address data, and so on, to be synchronized between a plurality of terminals each with its own screen display capability such as a screen size and available display colors and user attributes. The data processing unit comprises a communication control unit for communicating with other terminals, a synchronous data storing unit for storing data synchronized by the communication control unit, a data conversion rule storing unit for storing a data conversion rule provided in accordance with the screen display capability or the user attributes, a data conversion unit for converting the data received from the synchronous data storing unit based on the data conversion rule, a converted data storing unit for storing the converted data, and a display unit for displaying the converted data.

Abstract: A telecom karaoke system is configured by linking a musical data receiving terminal for receiving from a host base station necessary data for musical performance and a WWW page access terminal for accessing a page or a document on WWW via a WWW server. In this configuration, the musical data receiving terminal sequentially transmits to the WWW page access terminal the addresses of pages on WWW, superposed on the musical data. Further, the WWW page access terminal, when a musical number is selected, notifies the information on music selection to the data receiving terminal and, at the same time, updates data related to the musical number (a list of the number of accesses and the like) on the WWW server.

Abstract: An advertisement of a sponsor is distributed on an advertisement opportunity after a trade for the advertisement opportunity is settled.

Abstract: A system automatically sets the prices of items that are marketed in a web marketing system based on such factors as past prices and marketing trends so as to maximize the seller's profit. An automatic price calculating unit is provided that refers to item information and marketing information that are gathered from the web marketing system, updates the prices of items, and outputs the result as price information. At each point in time, the calculating unit repeats the steps of: outputting price information such that items are marketed for fixed time intervals at a price that is one step size higher than, and a price that is one step size lower than the optimal price estimate at that time, comparing the profits that are obtained as a result, and updating the optimal price estimate at that time in the direction of the price at which the higher profit was obtained.

Abstract: An information displaying apparatus connected to a communication network, for displaying information received through the communication network on display unit, instead of a periodically changed pattern during operation of a screen saver function for displaying the pattern on the display unit includes: an information storing unit for in turn storing the information received through the communication network; a private information discriminating unit in turn read out the information stored in the information storing unit, for discriminating whether or not the read information is private information; and an information display control unit for directly displaying the read information on the display unit in case where the read information is non-private information, and displaying the read information on the display unit with a predetermined operation provided for the apparatus by a user in case where the read information is private information, in response to a discriminating result of the private information d
