Transmission control device, reception control device, and content transceiving system

A method of transmission control comprising:

• acquiring information indicating an orientation of a transmission apparatus;
• controlling, by a processor, the transmission apparatus to transmit to a first reception apparatus of a plurality of reception apparatuses content of the transmission apparatus when an operation is performed to the transmission apparatus after the information indicating the orientation is acquired, the operation corresponding to a predetermined orientation;
• and
• controlling, by the processor, a display, on a display screen, of an indication that a second reception apparatus of the plurality of reception apparatuses is not a reception apparatus of the plurality of reception apparatuses selected for transmission of the content, based on a determination of a positional relationship of each of the first reception apparatus and the second reception apparatus, the determination using position information acquired from the first reception apparatus and the second reception apparatus and based on which of the first reception apparatus and the second reception apparatus has an angle of a position nearest to a reference line determined using the orientation of the transmission apparatus.

A transceiver apparatus comprising:

• an acquiring unit to acquire information indicating an orientation of the apparatus;
• an operation detection unit to detect an operation performed to the apparatus;
• and
• a control unit to control the apparatus to transmit to a first reception device of a plurality of reception devices content of the apparatus when an operation is performed to the apparatus after the information indicating the orientation is acquired, the operation corresponding to a predetermined orientation,
• wherein the control unit controls a display, on a display screen, of an indication that a second reception device of the plurality of reception devices is not a reception device of the plurality of reception devices selected for transmission of the content, based on a determination of a positional relationship of each of the first reception device and the second reception device, the determination using position information acquired from the first reception device and the second reception device and based on which of the first reception device and the second reception device has an angle of a position nearest to a reference line determined using the orientation of the apparatus, and
• wherein the control unit controls reception of content from a transmission device at the apparatus when the operation performed to the apparatus after the information indicating the orientation is acquired corresponds to a predetermined orientation.
