The present invention provides for systems and methods for communicating media files and creating a collection of media files, also referred to herein as a master media file. In addition, the systems and methods of the present invention provide for the creation of automatic metadata and compilation of metadata associated with the collection of media files. The present invention is able to bond devices, referred to herein as slave devices, such as media capture devices, presence devices and/or sensor devices and instruct the slave devices, particularly the media capture devices, to communicate captured media files with a specified set of metadata included.

The present invention relates to a mobile terminal for executing a file reproduction function, the mobile terminal comprising: a wireless communication unit configured to perform communication with an external terminal; and a control unit for forming a network for file sharing with the external terminal, receiving a file path corresponding to a specific file from the external terminal, so as to allow the mobile terminal to access the external terminal through the formed network and reproduce a file, and generating a reproduction list which includes a file path pre-stored in the mobile terminal and the file path received from the external device, wherein, when a file to be currently reproduced among files included in the reproduction list corresponds to a file, the file path of which has been received from the external terminal, the control unit accesses the external terminal through the formed network and reproduces a file corresponding to the received file path by a streaming method, on the basis of the received file path, and when a file to be currently reproduced among files included in the reproduction list corresponds to a file path pre-stored in the mobile terminal, the control unit reproduces a file by a local reproduction method, on the basis of the file path pre-stored in the mobile terminal.

A data transfer system includes a display device and a portable information terminal. The display device includes a first display panel having a first display screen for displaying an image, a terminal detection unit configured to detect that the portable information terminal has approached the first display screen, and a first display processing unit configured to cause the first display screen to display a storage location image which is an image indicating information about a storage location of data in another device when the terminal detection unit detects that the portable information terminal has approached the first display screen.

According to one embodiment, a file transmission/reception device includes a communication direction managing unit and an application unit. The communication direction managing unit, in near field communication, cuts off a connection with an opposing device in a case where a conflict occurs with the opposing device, and, after being reconnected to the opposing device, switches the file transmission/reception device to any one mode of a master mode and a slave mode. The application unit performs transmission, reception, or transmission/reception of a file between the opposing device and the file transmission/reception device in the master mode or the slave mode in accordance with a mode specified by the communication direction managing unit.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for recognizing an object in a photo and determining a terminal associated with the object in the photo. The method includes: determining an object in a photo by using a biological feature recognition technology; and determining a terminal that belongs to the object in the photo based on object-terminal relationship information, so that a an apparatus such as a smart device automatically obtains information about the terminal that belongs to the object in the photo, and shares the photo with the terminal.

The application unit performs transmission, reception, or transmission/reception of a file between the opposing device and the file transmission/reception device in the master mode or the slave mode in accordance with a mode specified by the communication direction managing unit.

A system for remotely controlling an electronic device includes a first electronic device configured to read a frame buffer to compress a screen and transmit the compressed screen, a second electronic device connected to the first electronic device and configured to repeatedly receive the compressed screen, to receive a communication service related event generated in the first electronic device and output the communication service related event, and to receive an event of copying a file between the first electronic device and the second electronic device and pasting the file, and a network configured to form a communication channel between the first electronic device and the second electronic device according to an authentication result of authentication information input into at least one of the first electronic device and the second electronic device.

Disclosed embodiments provide techniques for intelligent media sharing with visualized positioning layout in real time. A floor plan is retrieved corresponding to the physical location of a sender electronic device. A zone boundary corresponding to the physical location of the sender electronic device is determined. A list of potential recipient electronic devices within the zone boundary is generated. A floor plan view is rendered on the sender electronic device. A graphical representation of the potential recipient electronic devices on the floor plan view is rendered, overlaid in a semi-transparent manner with a media selection interface on the sender electronic device. A selection is received for one or more media items using the media selection interface. A send request is received for one or more potential recipients, resulting in sending the one or more media items to at least one potential recipient in response to receiving a user interface request action.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprises computer readable instructions, which when executed, cause at least one processor of a mobile device of a user to (a) identify at least one communication device within a predetermined distance from the mobile device as a target to perform a specific interaction to change user-originating information, (b) establish a communication channel with the communication device, when a specified touch gesture is detected in the mobile device, (c) receive, from the communication device, data related to the specific interaction; and (d) transmit, to a server, the data related to the specific interaction.
