Abstract
Provided is technology capable of improving user convenience. A wireless communication device configured to connect wirelessly to an external device, includes: a first wireless communicator configured to communicate by a first proximity communication; a second wireless communicator configured to communicate by a second proximity communication having a shorter communication range than the first proximity communication; and a controller configured to execute a process enabling communication by the second proximity communication when proximity to the external device is detected by the first proximity communication.
Claims12
A wireless communication device configured to connect wirelessly to an external device, comprising:
- a first wireless communicator configured to communicate by a first proximity communication;
- a second wireless communicator configured to communicate by a second proximity communication having a shorter communication range than the first proximity communication;
- and
- a controller configured to execute a process enabling communication by the second proximity communication when the first wireless communicator receives a beacom from the external device.
A control method of a wireless communication device configured to connect wirelessly to an external device and including a first wireless communicator configured to communicate by a first proximity communication, and a second wireless communicator configured to communicate by a second proximity communication method having a shorter communication range than the first proximity communication, comprising:
- executing a process enabling communication by the second proximity communication when the first wireless communicator receives a beacom from the external device.
A non-transitory, computer-readable recording medium storing a control program of a wireless communication device configured to connect wirelessly to an external device and including a first wireless communicator configured to communicate by a first proximity communication, and a second wireless communicator configured to communicate by a second proximity communication having a shorter communication range than the first proximity communication, the control program causing a computer to embody a function of:
- executing a process enabling communication by the second proximity communication when the first wireless communicator receives a beacom from the external device.
