Abstract
Disclosed is a communication system having two or more communication terminals. The communication system has: an attitude state detecting means which detects the attitude state of each of the communication terminals; a relationship calculating means which calculates the attitude state relationship between the communication terminals, on the basis of the communication terminal attitude states detected by the attitude state detecting means; and a communication policy determining means which determines, on the basis of the attitude state relationship between the communication terminals, a communication policy to be applied to between the communication terminals.
Claims17
A communication system comprising at least two communication terminals or more, and a server, comprising:
- a posture status detector that detects a posture status of each of the at least two communication terminals;
- a relationship calculator that calculates a relationship between said at least two communication terminals based on the posture status of each communication terminal detected by said posture status detector;
- and
- a communication policy determining unit that determines a communication policy to be applied between said at least two communication terminals based on the calculated relationship between said at least two communication terminals,
- wherein said server configures communication between said at least two communication terminals, based on said determined communication policy.
A communication system comprising at least one first communication terminal or more, at least one second communication terminal or more, and a server,
- wherein said first communication terminal comprises:
- a posture status detector that detects a posture status of its own first communication terminal;
- and
- a transmitter that transmits said detected posture status and an identifier of its own first communication terminal to said second communication terminal;
- wherein said second communication terminal comprises:
- a posture status detector that detects a posture status of its own second communication terminal;
- a relationship calculator that calculates a relationship between said first communication terminal and said second communication terminal based on the posture status of said first communication terminal and the posture status of said second communication terminal;
- a communication policy determining unit that determines a communication policy to be applied between said first communication terminal and said second communication terminal based on said calculated relationship;
- and
- a transmitter that transmits said determined communication policy, and identifiers of said first communication terminal and said second communication terminal to said server;
- and
- wherein said server comprises a communication unit that, based on the identifiers of said first communication terminal and said second communication terminal, and said communication policy, configures communication based on said communication policy for the communication between said first communication terminal and said second communication terminal.
A communication terminal in a communication system comprising a communication policy determining unit that determines, based on a relationship of a posture status between the communication terminals, a communication policy to be applied between said communication terminals, and a server that configures communication based on said determined communication policy between said communication terminals, the communication terminal comprising:
- a posture status detector that detects a posture status of its own communication terminal;
- a receiver that receives a posture status of a communication destination communication terminal, being a communication destination, and an identifier of said communication destination communication terminal;
- a relationship calculator that calculates a relationship between said own communication terminal and said communication destination communication terminal based on the posture status of said own communication terminal and the posture status of said communication destination communication terminal;
- and
- a transmitter that transmits said calculated relationship, and the identifiers of said own communication terminal and said communication destination communication terminal to said communication policy determining unit.
A communication terminal in a communication system comprising a server including a communicating unit that configures communication based on a communication policy between communication terminals, the communication terminal comprising:
- a posture status detector that detects a posture status of its own communication terminal;
- a receiver that receives a posture status of a communication destination communication terminal, being a communication destination, and an identifier of said communication destination communication terminal;
- a relationship calculator that calculates a relationship between said own communication terminal and said communication destination communication terminal based on the posture status of said own communication terminal and the posture status of said communication destination communication terminal;
- a communication policy determining unit that determines a communication policy to be applied between said own communication terminal and said communication destination communication terminal based on said calculated relationship;
- and
- a transmitter that transmits said determined communication policy, and the identifiers of said own communication terminal and said communication destination communication terminal to said communicating unit.
A communication method in a communication system comprising at least two communication terminals or more, and a server, the communication method comprising:
- detecting a posture status of each of the at least two communication terminals;
- calculating a relationship between said at least two communication terminals based on the detected posture status of said each communication terminal;
- determining information to be transmitted to at least one or more of said at least two communication terminals, based on the calculated relationship between said at least two communication terminals;
- and
- configuring, by said server, communication between said at least two communication terminals, based on said determined information.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium which stores a program of a communication terminal in a communication system comprising a communication policy determining unit that determines, based on a relationship of a posture status between communication terminals, a communication policy to be applied between said communication terminals, and a server that configures communication based on said determined communication policy between said communication terminals, the program causing the communication terminal to execute:
- a posture status detecting process of detecting a posture status of its own communication terminal;
- a receiving process of receiving a posture status of a communication destination communication terminal, being a communication destination, and an identifier of said communication destination communication terminal;
- a relationship calculating process of calculating a relationship between said own communication terminal and said communication destination communication terminal based on the posture status of said own communication terminal and the posture status of said communication destination communication terminal;
- and
- a transmitting process of transmitting said calculated relationship, and the identifiers of said own communication terminal and said communication destination communication terminal to said communication policy determining unit.
