## Abstract

According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes an input module, a transmitter, a receiver and a display. The input module is configured to input, from a first device, process result data indicative of a result of a process executed by the first device, and connection data for access to a second device. The transmitter is configured to access the second device, based on the connection data, and to transmit the process result data. The receiver is configured to receive totalization data of the process result data from the second device. The display is configured to display a totalization screen, based on the totalization data.

## Claims

### Claim 1

An electronic apparatus comprising:
an input module configured to input, from a first device, process result data indicative of a result of a process executed by the first device, and connection data for access to a second device;
a transmitter configured to access the second device, based on the connection data, and to transmit the process result data;
a receiver configured to receive totalization data of the process result data from the second device; and
a display configured to display a totalization screen, based on the totalization data.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The electronic apparatus of claim 1, further comprising:
a recording module configured to record first identification data for using a posting service provided by a third device;
a posting service screen display module configured to display a posting service screen, responding to an access request to the posting service screen provided by the third device, the access request using a button provided on the totalization screen; and
a posting data transmitter configured to designate the first identification data and to transmit posting data through the posting service screen.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The electronic apparatus of claim 2, wherein the posting service screen display module is configured to display a result indicated by the process result data on the posting service screen.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The electronic apparatus of claim 1, further comprising a position data detection module configured to detect position data indicative of a position,
wherein the transmitter is configured to transmit the position data together with the process result data to the second device.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The electronic apparatus of claim 1, wherein the input module comprises:
a camera configured to capture an image; and
an extraction module configured to extract the process result data and the connection data, based on the image of a two-dimensional code captured by the camera.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The electronic apparatus of claim 1, wherein the input module comprises:
a close proximity wireless transfer module configured to execute wireless communication, when the close proximity wireless transfer module approaches the first device; and
a data reception module configured to receive the process result data and the connection data from the first device via the close proximity wireless transfer module.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The electronic apparatus of claim 6, wherein the input module is configured to receive image data from the first device via the close proximity wireless transfer module.

### Claim 8 (depends on 2)

The electronic apparatus of claim 2, wherein the posting service screen display module is configured to display the connection data on the posting service screen.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The electronic apparatus of claim 8, further comprising identification data input module configured to input second identification data through the totalization screen,
wherein the posting service screen display module is configured to display the connection data to which the second identification data is added.

### Claim 10

An information distribution method comprising:
inputting, from a first device, process result data indicative of a result of a process executed by the first device, and connection data for access to a second device;
accessing the second device, based on the connection data, and transmitting the process result data;
receiving totalization data of the process result data from the second device; and
displaying a totalization screen, based on the totalization data.
