Communication device, communication system, image presentation method, and program
View Patent ↗A communication device including an image capturing device having a RF-ID unit for performing proximity wireless communication with a RF-ID reader/writer connected via an infrared communication path to a TV. The image capturing device includes: an antenna for the proximity wireless communication; a data receiving unit receiving an input signal from the RF-ID reader/writer; a nonvolatile second memory storing at least UID and an execution program; and a data transmission unit transmitting the UID and the execution program to the RF-ID reader/writer via the antenna according to the input signal. The UID is used to identify the communication device, and the execution program is executed by the TV with reference to the UID. The transmitted UID and execution program are transferred to the TV via the RF-ID reader/writer.
1. A communication device comprising:
a high-speed communication unit configured to perform high-speed communication that is speedier than Near Field Communication (NFC);
an NFC unit configured to receive, from an external device by the NFC, (a) operation information for determining a predetermined operation to be performed by the communication device using the high-speed communication and (b) communication information for identifying an external communication device, the external device being located remotely from the external communication device;
a storage unit in which unique information that is unique to the communication device is stored; and
a control unit configured to (i) connect, via the high-speed communication, the high-speed communication unit to the external communication device identified based on the communication information received by the NFC unit, and (ii) cause the communication device to perform the predetermined operation determined based on the operation information received by the NFC unit and the unique information read from the storage unit,
wherein the operation information includes operation device identification information that indicates a type of a target device to perform the predetermined operation,
the unique information includes communication device type information that indicates a type of the communication device, and
