Teleconferencing device, and teleconference initiating method and program thereof
View Patent ↗A teleconferencing device includes: a connecting unit fitted into an information processing device; and a storage unit storing: a teleconference application program which is automatically started by fitting the connecting unit into the information processing device; self-location information which is location information of the teleconferencing device; and destination location information which is location information of a connection destination holding a teleconference, wherein the teleconference application program reads the self-location information and the destination location information and connects the information processing device to an information processing device of the connection destination via a network.
1. A teleconferencing device comprising: a connecting unit for fitting into an information processing device; and a storage unit storing: a teleconference application program which is automatically started by fitting the connecting unit into the information processing device; self-location information which is location information of the teleconferencing device; and destination location information which is location information of a connection destination holding a teleconference, wherein the teleconference application program reads the self-location information and the destination location information, automatically connects the information processing device to an information processing device of the connection destination via a network and automatically initiates a communication between a location of the teleconferencing device and a location of the connection destination after the connection is completed.
2. The teleconferencing device according to claim 1 , further comprising
a starting module which starts the teleconference application program.
3. The teleconferencing device according to claim 1 , wherein
the self-location information and the destination location information are included in the teleconference application program.
4. The teleconferencing device according to claim 1 , wherein
the self-location information and the destination location information include at least one of an IP address, a name of a location, and conference environment information.
5. The teleconferencing device according to claim 1 , wherein
the destination location information is destination location information on a plurality of locations.
6. The teleconferencing device according to claim 1 , further comprising
a code key which codes communication signals with the location of the connection destination.
7. The teleconferencing device according to claim 1 , wherein
the teleconferencing device is a portable storage device.
8. The teleconferencing device according to claim 7 , wherein
the portable storage device is an USB memory.
9. The teleconferencing device according to claim 1 , wherein the teleconference application program reads the self-location information and the destination location information, automatically connects the information processing device to the information processing device of the connection destination via the network and automatically initiates a teleconference between the location of the teleconferencing device and the location of the connection destination after the connection is completed.
10. A teleconference initiating method of a teleconferencing device including a teleconference application program which is automatically started by fitting the teleconferencing device into an information processing device, self-location information which is location information of the teleconferencing device, and destination location information which is location information of a connection destination holding a teleconference, the method comprising:
starting the teleconference application program;
acquiring device information required for the teleconference;
reading the self-location information and the destination location information;
automatically connecting the information processing device to an information processing device of the connection destination via a network, on the basis of the self-location information and the destination location information; and
automatically initiating a communication between a location of the teleconferencing device and a location of the connection destination after the connection is completed.
11. A teleconference initiating program product for enabling a computer to initiating a teleconference using a teleconferencing device including a teleconference application program which is automatically started by fitting the teleconferencing device into the information processing device, self-location information which is location information of the teleconferencing device, and destination location information which is location information of a connection destination holding a teleconference, the program product comprising:
software instructions for enabling the computer to perform predetermined operations; and
a computer readable medium storing the software instructions,
wherein the predetermined operations comprise:
starting the teleconference application program;
acquiring device information required for the teleconference;
reading the self-location information and the destination location information;
automatically connecting the information processing device to an information processing device of the connection destination via a network, on the basis of the self-location information and the destination location information; and
automatically initiating a communication between a location of the teleconferencing device and a location of the connection destination after the connection is completed.
