Abstract
A communication device for performing near-field wireless communication with an electronic device includes: a display circuit; a near-field wireless communication circuit that performs the near-field wireless communication; and a control circuit. The control circuit receives information related to a state of the electronic device using the near-field wireless communication when the communication device comes close to the electronic device; and displays the received information related to the state on the display circuit and causes the communication device to transition to a mode corresponding to the information related to the state.
Claims7
A communication device for performing near-field wireless communication with an electronic device, comprising:
- a display circuit;
- a near-field wireless communication circuit that performs the near-field wireless communication;
- and
- a control circuit that:
- receives information related to a state of the electronic device using the near-field wireless communication when the communication device comes close to the electronic device;
- and
- displays the received information related to the state on the display circuit and causes the communication device to transition to a mode corresponding to the information related to the state.
A near-field communication system, comprising
- a communication device and an electronic device,
- wherein the communication device includes:
- a display circuit;
- a first near-field wireless communication circuit that performs near-field wireless communication;
- and
- a first control circuit that:
- receives information related to a state of the electronic device using the near-field wireless communication when the communication device comes close to the electronic device;
- and
- displays the received information related to the state on the display circuit and causes the communication device to transition to a mode corresponding to the information related to the state, and
- the electronic device includes:
- a second near-field wireless communication circuit that performs the near-field wireless communication;
- and
- a second control circuit that transmits information related to a state of the electronic device using the near-field wireless communication when the communication device comes close to the electronic device.
A computer-readable non-transitory recording medium on which is recorded a control program for controlling a communication device for performing near-field wireless communication with an electronic device, the control program causing the communication device to function as a control circuit that:
- receives information related to a state of the electronic device using the near-field wireless communication when the communication device comes close to the electronic device;
- and
- displays the received information related to the state on a display circuit and causes the communication device to transition to a mode corresponding to the information related to the state.
