Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes an authenticating unit, a transmitting unit, a detecting unit, and a determining unit. The authenticating unit authenticates a user who is holding a portable device. The transmitting unit transmits an action instructing signal for issuing an instruction to perform an action to a portable device that is associated with the user, via a radio communication line. The detecting unit detects a change of a status of the portable device that is being held by the user. The determining unit determines, by determining whether or not the change corresponds to the instructed action, whether or not the user is holding the portable device.
Claims21
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a memory storing a control program,
- a detecting device, and
- a hardware processor, executing the control program to
- authenticate a user holding a portable device;
- receive a terminal identification information of a first portable device that is associated to the user, wherein the terminal identification information of the first portable device and an association with the user are registered in a database in advance;
- upon successfully authenticating the user, transmit an action instructing signal for issuing an instruction to the portable device to perform an action on the portable device, wherein the action instructing signal is outputted based on the terminal identification information of the first portable device, via wireless communication, wherein the portable device has a sensor sensing bio-information and/or a position information;
- detect a change of a status of the portable device through receiving a signal transmitted as a response to the action instructing signal from the portable device, wherein the change of status is a visual change from at least part of portable device, auditory change from the portable device, an operation of user on the portable device, or radio signal of specific frequency from the portable device;
- determine, based on the change of the status of the portable device responding to the action instructing signal transmitted, whether or not the portable device held by the user is the first portable device associated with the user registered in the database;
- and
- store bio-information and/or position information obtained from the sensor of the portable device to the memory after the user is authenticated and the hardware processor determines that the portable device is the first portable device registered and associated with the user in the database.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for information processing, the process comprising:
- authenticating a user holding a portable device;
- receiving a terminal identification of a first portable device that is associated to the user, wherein the terminal identification information of the first portable device and an association with the user are registered in a database;
- upon successfully authenticating the user, transmitting an action instructing signal for issuing an instruction to the portable device to perform an action on the portable device, wherein the action instructing signal is outputted based on the terminal identification of the first portable device, via wireless communication, wherein the portable device has a sensor sensing bio-information and/or a position information;
- detecting a change of a status of the portable device through receiving a signal transmitted as a response to the action instructing signal from the portable device, wherein the change of status is a visual change from at least part of portable device, auditory change from the portable device, an operation of user on the portable device, or radio signal of specific frequency from the portable device;
- determining, based on the change of the status, whether or not the portable device held by the user responding to the transmitted action instructing signal is the first portable device associated with the user registered in the database;
- and
- storing the bio-information and/or the position information obtained from the sensor of the portable device to a memory after the user is authenticated and the portable device being determined to be the first portable device being registered to be associated with the user in the database.
