The apparatus for recognizing a surrounding state includes: a unique information obtaining unit which obtains, from a peripheral device, unique information of the peripheral device; and a surrounding state determining unit which determines a surrounding state, based on the unique information.
Claims16
An apparatus for recognizing a surrounding state, the apparatus comprising:
- a unique information obtaining unit which obtains, from a peripheral device, unique information of the peripheral device;
- and
- a surrounding state determining unit which determines a surrounding state, based on the obtained unique information;
- wherein the unique information obtaining unit comprises a detailed information obtaining unit which obtains, via the unique information, detailed information of the peripheral device, and
- wherein the surrounding state determining unit redefines the unique information, based on the detailed information, and determines the surrounding state, based on redefined unique information.
A surrounding state recognition method of recognizing a surrounding state in a device, the method comprising:
- obtaining unique information from a peripheral device;
- obtaining via the unique information, detailed information of the peripheral device;
- determining a surrounding state, based on the unique information obtained from the peripheral device;
- and
- redefining the unique information, based on the detailed information, and determining the surrounding state, based on redefined unique information.
A computer-readable recording medium encoded with a program configured to cause a processor to implement a surrounding state recognition method of recognizing a surrounding state in a device, the method comprising:
- obtaining unique information from a peripheral device;
- obtaining via the unique information, detailed information of the peripheral device;
- determining a surrounding state, based on the unique information obtained from the peripheral device;
- and
- redefining the unique information, based on the detailed information, and determining the surrounding state, based on redefined unique information.
