Abstract
An information processing apparatus that receives, from another information processing apparatus, first displacement information; senses second displacement information corresponding to movement of the information processing apparatus; and establishes a connection with the another information processing apparatus based on a predetermined relationship between the first displacement information and the second displacement information.
Claims20
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- an interface that receives, from another information processing apparatus, first displacement information;
- a displacement sensor that senses second displacement information corresponding to movement of the information processing apparatus;
- and
- a processor that controls the interface to establish a connection with the another information processing apparatus based on a predetermined relationship between the first displacement information and the second displacement information.
The information processing apparatus of claim 16, wherein the interface receives a signal transmitted from the another information processing apparatus including the first displacement information and identification information corresponding to the another information processing apparatus, wherein the first displacement information is the same as the second displacement information included in the signal transmitted from the information processing apparatus to the another information processing apparatus.
A method performed by an information processing apparatus, the method comprising:
- receiving, at an interface of the information processing apparatus, from another information processing apparatus, first displacement information;
- sensing second displacement information corresponding to movement of the information processing apparatus;
- and
- controlling, by a processor of the information processing apparatus, the interface to establish a connection with the another information processing apparatus based on a predetermined relationship between the first displacement information and the second displacement information.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium including computer program instructions, which when executed by an information processing apparatus, cause the information processing apparatus to:
- receive, from another information processing apparatus, first displacement information;
- sense second displacement information corresponding to movement of the information processing apparatus;
- and
- control the interface to establish a connection with the another information processing apparatus based on a predetermined relationship between the first displacement information and the second displacement information.
