Abstract: A portable information device includes: an image sensor used to pick up an image of a subject; a locator configured to acquire position information about an image pickup position for the subject; an orientation sensor configured to acquire an orientation information corresponding to an imaging direction at the image pickup position; a display configured to, while the subject is being imaged via the image sensor, display (a) an imaging data of the subject obtained via the image sensor and (b) related information on the subject obtained based on acquired data from the locator and from the orientation sensor; an input portion with which a user posts comment, while the subject is being imaged via the image sensor; and a controller configured to, while the subject is being imaged via the image sensor, control the display to display the posted comment and the related information.

Abstract: An information acquisition system includes: a mobile terminal; and an information search system. The information search system searches for information on a route based on route information input from the mobile terminal and transmits a search result to the mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal includes a navigation unit that navigates the route from a departure point to a destination. The information search system includes: a database in which information on the route is stored in correspondence with the route information; and an information search server that searches for the information on the route from the database based on the route information and acquires reservation information for transportation on the route based on the information on the route from a reservation system of the transportation, and the information search server transmits the reservation information to the mobile terminal together with the information on the route.

Abstract: A portable information device including a body, a position information portion that is provided in the body and that outputs position information, an image sensor that is provided in the body, a display system that is provided in the body and that displays, on a local field in a screen field, relevant information based on the position information such that the displayed relevant information is overlapped on a real-time image, an input portion that is provided on the body and, by use of which user operates an icon, the icon being displayed on the local field such that the displayed icon is overlapped on the real-time image and an imaging button that is provided, separately from the input portion, on the body and that is operated by user to capture a subject image via the image sensor.

Abstract: In a database, product image data is accumulated. A search portion acquires product image data having the image characteristics information that is the same as or similar to the image characteristics information that indicates the characteristics of the image of input image data from the database for the input image data. A search server outputs information on another product that is different from the product corresponding to the product image data together with the product image data acquired by the search portion.
