Terminal, camera unit, and terminal camera unit system
A portable terminal selectively includes either a camera unit which has an image pickup section and is formed with an engagement part or a cover unit formed with the same engagement part as the camera unit. An attachment part for engaging with the engagement part is provided in a main body of the portable terminal.
1. A camera unit system comprising a camera unit and a terminal to which the camera unit enables to be attached,
wherein the camera unit includes:
an image pickup section; and
a camera storage section for storing a first address information specifying a predetermined communication destination, and
the terminal includes:
a communication section;
an information acquisition section for acquiring the first address information from the camera storage section; and
a terminal storage section for storing a second address information, and
wherein if the second address information stored in the terminal storage section is different from the first address information acquired by the information acquisition section, the communication section of the terminal performs a communication processing with the communication destination indicated by the first address information acquired by the information acquisition section.
2. The camera unit system according to claim 1 ,
wherein
the terminal includes a comparison section for comparing the second address information stored in the terminal storage section with the first address information acquired by the information acquisition section.
3. The camera unit system according to claim 1 ,
wherein the terminal further includes a control section for controlling the camera unit,
the communication section acquires a program or data for controlling the camera unit by performing a communication processing with the first communication destination indicated by the address information acquired by the information acquisition section, and
the control section controls the camera unit based on the acquired program or data.
4. The camera unit system according to claim 1 ,
wherein the terminal further includes a detection section for detecting attachment of the camera unit, and
if the detection section detects attachment of the camera unit, if power of the terminal is turned on, or if a processing for transmitting the image data is started, the terminal determines whether or not the address information or the identification information stored in the terminal storage section is different from the address information or the identification information acquired by the information acquisition section.
5. A terminal to which a camera unit enables to be attached for a camera unit system comprising the camera unit and the terminal to which the camera unit enables to be attached, comprising:
a communication section;
an information acquisition section for acquiring a first address information specifying a predetermined communication destination stored in the camera unit; and
a terminal storage section for storing a second address information, and
wherein if the second address information stored in the terminal storage section is different from the first address information acquired by the information acquisition section, the communication section of the terminal performs a communication processing with the communication destination indicated by the first address information acquired by the information acquisition section.
6. The terminal according to claim 5 ,
further comprising,
a comparison section for comparing the second address information stored in the terminal storage section with the first address information acquired by the information acquisition section.
7. The terminal according to claim 5 , further comprising a control section for controlling the camera unit,
wherein the communication section acquires a program or data for controlling the camera unit by performing a communication processing with the first communication destination indicated by the address information acquired by the information acquisition section, and
the control section controls the camera unit based on the acquired program or data.
8. The terminal according to claim 5 , further comprising a detection section for detecting attachment of the camera unit,
wherein if the detection section detects attachment of the camera unit, if power of the terminal is turned on, or if a processing for transmitting the image data is started, the terminal determines whether or not the second address information or the identification information stored in the terminal storage section is different from the first address information or the identification information acquired by the information acquisition section.
