a transferor configured to receive, from the client terminal, operation pattern information indicating motion of the client terminal itself, and transfer, based on information on a tilt angle of the client terminal, the operation pattern information to a display apparatus having the same tilt angle as the tilt angle of the client terminal.
4. The server apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the authentication pattern information further includes guidance information for guiding an operation pattern.
5. A content display control system comprising:
a plurality of display apparatuses capable of displaying a content distributed from a client terminal; and
a server apparatus for providing authentication information to associate the client terminal with the plurality of display apparatuses, wherein
the server apparatus includes
a storage configured to store a plurality of sets of authentication pattern information associated with information relating to operations of the client terminal, and
an issuing unit configured to issue a set of authentication pattern information from among the plurality of sets of the authentication pattern information stored in the storage to a display apparatus on which an operation has been performed by a user, among the plurality of display apparatuses, the set of authentication pattern information being issued to the display apparatus in response to a request from the display apparatus for authentication pattern information, the issuing unit being further configured to disable issuing the set of authentication pattern information issued to the display apparatus to a further display apparatus in a period from issuing the set of authentication pattern information to receiving return of the set of authentication pattern information from the display apparatus; and
the display apparatus includes
a receiver configured to receive, from the server apparatus, operation pattern information and the authentication pattern information of the client terminal, and
a display controller configured to display a content distributed from the client terminal that has output an operation pattern corresponding to the authentication pattern information, based on the authentication pattern information received by the receiver, and to return, to the server apparatus, the set of the authentication pattern information received by the receiver.
6. The content display control system according to claim 5 , wherein
the issuing unit issues the authentication pattern information to the display apparatus on which an operation of specifying an area for displaying the content has been performed by the user.
7. The content display control system according to claim 5 , wherein
the server apparatus further includes
a transferor configured to receive, from the client terminal, operation pattern information indicating motion of the client terminal itself, and transfer, based on information on a tilt angle of the client terminal, the operation pattern information to a display apparatus having the same tilt angle as the tilt angle of the client terminal.
8. The content display control system according to claim 5 , wherein
the authentication pattern information further includes guidance information for guiding an operation pattern.
9. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a content display control program for controlling a content display control system, the content display control system including a plurality of display apparatuses capable of displaying a content distributed from a client terminal, and a server apparatus for providing authentication information to associate the client terminal with the plurality of display apparatuses, the content display control program including one or more sequences of instructions which, when executed by one or more processors:
to cause a computer of the server apparatus
to issue a set of authentication pattern information from among a plurality of sets of authentication pattern information stored in a storage of the server apparatus to a display apparatus among the plurality of display apparatuses on which an operation has been performed by a user, the set of authentication pattern information being associated with information relating to operations of the client terminal and being issued to the display apparatus in response to a request from the display apparatus for authentication pattern information; and
to disable issuing the set of authentication pattern information issued to the display apparatus to a further display apparatus in a period from issuing the authentication pattern information to receiving return of the set of authentication pattern information from the display apparatus; and
to cause a computer of the display apparatus
to receive, from the server apparatus, operation pattern information and the set of authentication pattern information of the client terminal,
to display a content distributed from the client terminal that has output an operation pattern corresponding to the authentication pattern information, based on the received authentication pattern information, and
to return, to the server apparatus, the set of the authentication pattern information received.
10. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 9 , wherein
the issuing includes issuing the authentication pattern information to the display apparatus on which an operation of specifying an area for displaying the content has been performed by the user.
11. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 9 , wherein the content display control program stores additional instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause:
the computer of the server apparatus
to receive, from the client terminal, operation pattern information indicating motion of the client terminal itself, and transfer, based on information on a tilt angle of the client terminal, the operation pattern information to a display apparatus having the same tilt angle as the tilt angle of the client terminal.
12. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 9 , wherein
the authentication pattern information further includes guidance information for guiding an operation pattern.
13. The server apparatus as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the display apparatus on which the operation has been performed by the user displays the guidance information for guiding the operation pattern upon receiving the set of authentication pattern information.
