A driver assistance system includes a mobile terminal provided on an automobile, and a detection server capable of communicating with the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal includes an image capture apparatus which captures images around the automobile, and an image transmission unit which transmits the captured image to the detection server. The detection server includes an image filter which carries out a working process for the image, and a detection engine which receives the image after the working process by the image filter as an input thereto and detects whether or not the image includes an object. If it is decided that the image includes an object, the detection server transmits the result of the decision to the mobile terminal.

Driver assistance system, driver assistance method and information storage medium

A system includes a first wearable terminal connected to a measurement device capable of measuring predetermined physical amounts and a second wearable terminal connected to a head-mounted display device, wherein the first wearable terminal includes a distance calculation means for calculating a distance from the second wearable terminal and a predicted value calculation means for calculating a predicted value of the predetermined physical amount at a position of the second wearable terminal based on a measurement value of the predetermined physical amount measured by the measurement device and the calculated distance, and the second wearable terminal includes a display control means for controlling to display the predicted value calculated by the predicted value calculation means on the head-mounted display device.

Work assistance system, terminal, method and program

A telephone relay apparatus stores peripheral telephone numbers of a plurality of peripheral telephone terminals scheduled to be located at the periphery of each specific terminal user. When a line connecting request from an outgoing telephone terminal of an arbitrary telephone outgoing user to a specific telephone terminal is received, connection of a telephone call execution line from the outgoing telephone terminal to the specific telephone terminal is tried. Therefore, when the connection is connected, a telephone call between the telephone outgoing user and the specific terminal user can be immediately made. However, when the telephone call execution line to the specific telephone terminal is not connected, the peripheral telephone terminal is selected in a transfer trying order, and connection of the telephone call execution line is tried with the peripheral telephone numbers in the transfer trying order.

Telephone relay apparatus, telephone relay system, recording medium and data processing method

When a telephone call line from an outgoing telephone terminal to the specific telephone terminal of a specific terminal user is not opened, the telephone relay apparatus acquires periphery requirement data from user scheduled data about the specific terminal user having a scheduled date matching the present date, and selects a peripheral telephone terminal. Opening of a telephone call line from the outgoing telephone terminal to the selected peripheral telephone terminal is tried, and the outgoing telephone terminal not connected to the specific telephone terminal is connected to the peripheral telephone terminal. Thus, it is possible to increase the possibility that the telephone outgoing user and the specific terminal user can talk to each other between the peripheral telephone terminal and the outgoing telephone terminal.

Telephone relay system, telephone relay apparatus, recording medium and data processing method

A plurality of data communication terminals having a data display function is individually provided in each of a plurality of locations of use where general users individually check in. A user storage unit stores the user ID data and the location ID data with respect to each general user who has checked in, and a situation storage unit stores user situation data of the general user who has checked in, together with the user ID data. A group identification unit identifies the plurality of general users who have checked in as a group, and a listing display unit causes each of the data communication terminals in the plurality of locations of use where the general users of the group have checked in, to display a listing of at least the user ID data, the location ID data, and the user situation data of another member of the group. Thus, a data processing system is provided that allows the general users of the group, who have individually checked in for the plurality of locations of use, to confirm the situation of another member at a glance.

Data processing system, central management unit thereof, and data processing method

A management apparatus of a notification system includes an interface unit that communicates with a store terminal used for a predetermined site work process by a site worker and an IP telephone terminal used for IP phone call, which are located at one work site; an accepting unit that accepts an emergency notification to the site worker; a display control unit that displays and outputs the accepted emergency notification on the store terminal via the interface unit; and a calling unit that calls the IP telephone terminal via the interface unit to make the site worker recognize the emergency notification.

A distributed processing system includes a first information processing device, two or more second information processing devices connected with the first information processing device via a first network, and the second information processing devices being connected with each other via a second network, wherein the first information processing device includes an input division unit that generates divided input data pieces by dividing an input data set, and a divided input distribution unit that transmits the divided input data pieces to the second information processing devices, and wherein the second information processing devices include a divided input transfer unit that transmits the divided input data piece to the second information processing device assigned as the base terminal from one or more of the second information processing devices assigned as a client terminal, and a divided input combining unit that combines the divided input data pieces to restore the input data set.

Distributed processing system, method of distributed processing, terminals and storage media

A data transmission/reception system is capable of transmitting and receiving data even from within a moving vehicle in which a constant connection to a communication network cannot be maintained. A temporary storage server that is established inside the moving vehicle temporarily saves upload data that are received from a user terminal. The temporary storage server is provided with the capability to determine whether a state exists that allows communication with various servers. When in a state that allows communication with the various servers, the temporary storage server transmits the data that it has temporarily saved to various servers by way of a communication network. The temporary storage server further, when requested to download from a user terminal, receives the download data from various servers by way of a communication network when in a state that allows communication with the various servers. The temporary storage server then temporarily saves the download data that have been received.
