Abstract

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, there is provided an information processing device including an activation control unit configured to transmit first information that includes information read through near field communication to a server device, to acquire second information transmitted from the server device according to the first information, and to control activation of an application of the information processing device itself based on the acquired second information.

Claims (46)

1. An information processing apparatus, comprising:

a near field communication unit configured to read first information via wireless communication,

wherein the first information includes information associated with an integrated circuit (IC) tag;

a sensor unit configured to detect sensing data,

wherein the sensing data includes at least temperature information of the information processing apparatus; and

circuitry configured to:

transmit the first information, second information, and the detected sensing data to a server apparatus;

wherein the second information includes user identification (ID) information indicating identity of a user and device ID information indicating identity of the information processing apparatus;

acquire, from the server apparatus, third information, based on the first information, the second information, and the sensing data; and

activate an application on the information processing apparatus based on the acquired third information.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the wireless communication corresponds to short-range wireless communication.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

the short-range wireless communication activates a basic application on the information processing apparatus, and

the basic application activates a browser application based on application activation information.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to:

receive the application activation information that includes an application identifier; and

activate the application on the information processing apparatus based on the application activation information and the third information.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to add current position information of the information processing apparatus to the second information.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to:

add fourth information to the second information, wherein the fourth information is associated with a current time and date at which the first information is read; and

transmit the fourth information and the second information to the server apparatus.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to:

add fourth information to the second information, wherein the fourth information relates to a plurality of attributes of the application activated on the information processing apparatus; and

transmit the fourth information and the second information to the server apparatus.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to:

add fourth information to the second information based on a user operation; and

transmit the fourth information and the second information to the server apparatus.

9. An information processing method, comprising:

in an information processing apparatus:

reading, by a near field communication unit, first information via wireless communication,

wherein the first information includes information associated with an integrated circuit (IC) tag;

detecting, by a sensor unit, sensing data,

wherein the sensing data includes at least temperature information of the information processing apparatus;

transmitting, by circuitry, the first information, second information, and the detected sensing data to a server apparatus,

wherein the second information includes user identification (ID) information indicating identity of a user and device ID information indicating identity of the information processing apparatus;

acquiring, by the circuitry, third information from the server apparatus, based on the first information, the second information, and the sensing data; and

activating, by the circuitry, an application on the information processing apparatus based on the acquired third information.

10. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon computer-readable instructions that, when executed by a processor in an information processing apparatus, cause the processor to execute operations, the operations comprising:

reading first information via wireless communication,

wherein the first information includes information associated with an integrated circuit (IC) tag;

detecting, sensing data;

wherein the sensing data includes at least temperature information of the information processing apparatus;

transmitting the first information, second information, and the detected sensing data to a server apparatus,

wherein the second information includes user identification (ID) information indicating identity of a user and device ID information indicating identity of the information processing apparatus;

acquiring, from the server apparatus, third information, based on the first information, the second information, and the sensing data; and

activating an application on the information processing apparatus based on the acquired third information.
