Information display system and information display method
View Patent ↗An information display system, which displays information suitable for each browser requiring information in a specific place, includes: a display device etc. which transmit signals via electromagnetic waves; and a portable terminal. The portable terminal includes: a reception measurement unit that receives the signals from the display device etc. and measures intensity of the signal; and a portable-device transmission unit that transmits predetermined data and intensity data indicating a measurement result. The display device includes: a display-device transmission unit that repeatedly transmits the signal via electromagnetic waves; and a display unit that changes a display state according to the data transmitted from the portable terminal. The display unit changes the display state to a first state where display information is displayed according to the predetermined data, when the intensity is greater than a first threshold, and changes a value of the first threshold after the change of the display state.
1. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium for use in a computer, the recording medium having a control program recorded thereon for causing a portable terminal to perform control processing in an information display system that includes the portable terminal and a plurality of display devices, the portable terminal having a recording medium and a processor, and the plurality of display devices each repeatedly transmitting a signal including display-device identification data via electromagnetic waves and each performing displaying according to predetermined data transmitted from the portable terminal, the control program executing:
receiving the signal transmitted from a target display device among the plurality of display devices;
measuring an intensity of the signal;
storing a value of the display-device identification data onto the recording medium under a certain condition;
determining whether the value of the display-device identification data stored in said storing is the same as a value of display-device identification data previously stored onto the recording medium; and
(i) transmitting the predetermined data when it is determined in said determining that the value of the display-device identification data stored in said storing is not the same as the value of display-device identification data previously stored onto the recording medium only if the intensity measured in the measuring is greater than or equal to a predetermined intensity, and (ii) transmitting the predetermined data when it is determined in said determining that the value of the display-device identification data stored in said storing is the same as the value of display-device identification data previously stored onto the recording medium, regardless of the intensity measured in the measuring.
