Abstract:
A contents providing system is provided with an information obtaining unit that obtains at least one of input information input to a user interface of a client device and output information output from the user interface, a content searching unit that searches for contents in accordance with the information obtained by the information obtaining unit, a content output control unit that outputs a content searched by the content searching unit to an output unit, the output unit providing the content to a user of the client device, and a content identifying unit that identifies one of the contents searched by the content searching unit, each of the contents having executed a predetermined process, the content identifying unit identifies the content that has executed the predetermined process latest. Further, the contents output control unit outputs the content identified by the content identifying unit prior to other contents searched by the content searching unit.
Abstract:
In response to a positional relationship (distance, or a combination of distance and angle) between an information output unit and a user who uses information displayed in the display unit, a control unit changes the amount of information to be displayed in the display unit based on an information level, the number of pieces of information, a scrolling speed or a cycle. In some aspects, the control unit controls the information output unit to increase the amount of information to be output when the user is close to the display unit.

Abstract:
A content providing system includes an information collecting device including a content collecting unit and a content providing unit, a plurality of relaying devices each configured to relay transmission of the collected contents provided by the content providing unit, and a terminal device connected to at least one relaying device so as to communicate therewith, the contents collected by the content collecting unit being transmitted by the content providing unit to the terminal device via the at least one relaying device. The content collecting unit collects contents in accordance with a predetermined collecting condition. Further, the content providing unit transmits the contents to the relaying devices, each content transmitted to the relaying device being relayed to the terminal device connected to the relaying device, a type of content transmitted to each relaying device being determined in accordance with a location of the relaying device.
Abstract:
A communication system includes a printing unit, an image scanning unit, an accessing system connectable to a web page. The printing unit prints out the web page on a first recording medium. When the web page includes an input field and the data input in the input field is to be transmitted to a predetermined destination, the printing unit prints out an image having a fill-in area to be filled in by the user, and a destination area indicating the destination, on a second recording medium. The communication system includes a scan controller that controls the scanning unit to scan the second recording medium to capture an image thereof, a recognition system that recognizes contents written in the fill-in area and the destination area based on the scanned image, and a data transmitting system that transmits contents extracted from the fill-in area to the destination extracted from the destination area.
Abstract:
An image forming device transmits a transmission request data to a server on a network and receives content data from the server. The received content data is printed on a recording medium, and the transmission request data transmitted to the server is stored in a memory. When print error is detected before the received data was completely printed, the image forming device notifies a user of the print error. After the print error is resolved, the image forming device automatically retransmit the transmission request data to the server.
