Abstract
A remote operation system includes a user terminal and a mediation server. The mediation server is configured to execute a registration procedure to start a remote operation of the user terminal from a support terminal. The user terminal includes a telephone function unit, and is configured to allow transmitting, from the user terminal to the mediation server, registration data regarding the remote operation on a condition that the telephone function unit is performing a telephone call.
Claims24
A mobile terminal, comprising:
- a telephone function unit;
- a transmission unit configured to transmit, through a data communication path to a mediation server that is remotely located from the mobile terminal, registration data regarding a remote operation of the mobile terminal from a support terminal;
- a restriction unit configured to allow transmission of the registration data through the data communication path on a condition that the telephone function unit is currently communicating on a telephone call through a voice or video communication path;
- a face recognition processing unit configured to recognize an image of a human face included in a picture,
- wherein the telephone function unit supports a videophone, and
- wherein the restriction unit allows the transmission of the registration data on a condition that the face recognition processing unit determines that a face image recognized from a received picture received while a videophone call is performed by the telephone function unit and a face image recognized from a person picture pre-stored in the mobile terminal indicate substantially a same person;
- and
- a telephone book data holding unit capable of registering personal data including an image,
- wherein the person picture compared with the received picture comprises an image included in the personal data held in the telephone book data holding unit.

A data transmission control method by a mobile terminal, said method comprising:
- allowing transmission of registration data, regarding a remote operation of the mobile terminal with a support terminal, through a data communication path to a mediation server that is remotely located from the mobile terminal, on a condition that telephone function unit included in the mobile terminal is currently communicating on a telephone call through a voice or video communication path,
- wherein the mobile terminal further includes face recognition processing unit configured to recognize an image of a human face included in a picture,
- wherein the telephone function unit supports a videophone,
- wherein the allowing includes allowing the transmission of the registration data on a condition that the face recognition processing unit determines that a face image recognized from a received picture received while a videophone call is performed by the telephone function unit and a face image recognized from a person picture pre-stored in the mobile terminal indicate substantially a same person,
- wherein the mobile terminal further includes telephone book data holding unit capable of registering personal data including an image, and
- wherein the person picture compared with the received picture comprises an image included in the personal data held in the telephone book data holding unit.
