  • Patent number: 11950319
    Abstract: When terminal identification information TI of one terminal device used by a user among two or more terminal devices is newly stored in a memory of a host device together with user identification information UI (S3a), an examination part examines, in the memory of the host device, a presence or absence of terminal identification information (terminal identification information TI-p) corresponding to the user identification information UI, excluding terminal identification information TI and terminal identification information corresponding to a terminal device that is currently used by the user (S11). When the terminal identification information TI-p exists, a management part performs control to transmit predetermined instruction information together with the terminal identification information TI-p to the two or more terminal devices (S12).

  • Patent number: 11282481
    Abstract: An information processing device according to one embodiment is an information processing device controlling a motion of a user object in a virtual space that is associated with a user wearing an HMD, the information processing device including: a motion information acquiring unit that acquires motion information of the head and eyes of the user detected in an actual space; a provisional line-of-sight determining unit that determines a provisional line-of-sight of the user object on the basis of the motion information; a line-of-sight control unit that controls a line-of-sight of the user object on the basis of a positional relation between the provisional line-of-sight and one or more objects in the virtual space; and an image generating unit that generates an image which the line-of-sight of the user object controlled by the line-of-sight control unit is reflected in and are displayed on the HMD.

  • Patent number: 10129030
    Abstract: A wearable device generates a temporary ID, generates an encrypted user ID, and transmits the temporary ID and the encrypted user ID to a shop system. The shop system receives the temporary ID and the encrypted user ID, transmits a temporary ID corresponding to the received temporary ID and the encrypted user ID to a server, and transmits the temporary ID transmitted by an identifier transmission unit and waiting state information to the server. The server stores the user ID in association with an information delivery destination of the user ID, receives the encrypted user ID and the temporary ID, associates the temporary ID and the information delivery destination of the user ID, receives the temporary ID and the waiting state information, and transmits the waiting state information to the information delivery destination of the user ID corresponding to the temporary ID.

  • Patent number: 9779568
    Abstract: In a coin-operated locker, a short-range wireless communication unit receives UIM information, which is information for connection to a mobile communication network, from a wearable device by short-range wireless communication. A server communication unit communicates with an authentication server that holds authentication-relevant information by mobile communication using the UIM information. The server communication unit receives authentication information from the authentication server. An authentication unit performs authentication using the authentication information received from the authentication server and a locking control unit performs locking control on the basis of the authentication result from the authentication unit.

  • Publication number: 20170220791
    Abstract: A terminal device, an authentication information management method, and an authentication information management system for securing a security level of authentication information while maintaining the convenience for a user. A mobile device determines whether communication with a wearable device is possible and determines whether the mobile device is able to communicate with an authentication server. When it is determined that communication between the mobile device and the wearable device is possible and communication between the mobile device and the authentication server is possible, the mobile device transmits identification information corresponding to the wearable device to the authentication server, requests the authentication server to transmit authentication information, receives the authentication information from the authentication server in response to the transmission request, and transmits the received authentication information to the wearable device.
