An apparatus includes a communication unit which communicates with a communication device, and can write data received from the communication device in a memory. The apparatus receives an operation request to the apparatus from the communication device, and stores the received operation request in the memory. The apparatus has a function of specifying a function corresponding to the operation request of a plurality of functions included in the apparatus in a state in which the operation request is stored in the memory. When the function is specified, and is not activated, the apparatus activates the function, and controls the activated function.

[Object] To provide an information processing system with improvement of security properties.

[Solution] An information processing system including: an information processing device including a light source, and a visible light communication control unit configured to control a light emission state of the light source on the basis of identification information of the information processing device and transmit the identification information; and an information processing terminal including an imaging unit, an identification information acquiring unit configured to perform image processing on an image of the light source captured by the imaging unit and acquire the identification information of the information processing device, a display control unit configured to control display of an input screen for input of an operation to the information processing device on the basis of the identification information, and an input information transmitting unit configured to transmit input information input to the input screen to the information processing device.

A system for securely storing and charging a mobile device includes an AC-connectable device, such as a multi-function printer or photocopier, having a charging area and a power source, wherein a mobile device such as a smartphone, a tablet computer, an e-reader or a portable rechargeable battery pack, is charged by placing the mobile device in the charging area and attaching the device to the power source. The charging area allows for the mobile device to be secured to or within the AC-connectable device. The charging area can be configured in many ways, including as a movable locking compartment, a fixed locking compartment or a rotatable locking compartment. The mobile device may also be used to power the AC-connectable device when it is not connected to an AC power source. The system also optionally provides for cleaning, sanitizing or drying of the mobile device while it is in the charging area.

For image recording purposes, an object is illuminated at a plurality of illumination angles. A detector captures a plurality of images (41-43) of the object for the plurality of illumination angles. An electronic evaluating device applies an image correction to the plurality of images (41-43), said image correction comprising a rectification (T.sub.1, T.sub.2, T.sub.3), wherein the rectification (T.sub.1, T.sub.2, T.sub.3) depends on the illumination angle used when recording the respective image (41-43). The corrected images (44-46) may be combined.

A system for dynamically adjusting content for an interaction impairment can include a data provider, an end-user electronic device, a user identification module, and a data adjustment module. The data provider can be capable of providing access to electronic data. One or more characteristics of the electronic data can be incompatible with an impairment of an impaired user. The end-user electronic device can be configured to allow the impaired user to interact with electronic data. The user identification module can be configured to identify an identity of the impaired user and/or the impairment of the impaired user. The data adjustment module can be configured to automatically adjust incompatible characteristics of the electronic data prior to presentation by the end-user electronic device. This adjustment can increase the ability of the impaired user to utilize the electronic data with the end-user electronic device.

A first device includes a processor and instructions. The instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to configure the first device to receive network credentials; accept a connection request from a second device to connect to the first device; obtain the network credentials from the second device; configure the first device to connect to a third device subsequent to obtaining the network credentials; and transmit a request that includes the network credentials to the third device to connect to the third device.

A document management facility may process volumes of physical documents for digital imaging. The document management facility may utilize robotic apparatus to perform the various functions for processing the documents, which may include document intake, document storage, document digitization, and/or document removal. Digital versions of the documents may be accessed with a document management system.

An image recording apparatus includes: a first communication interface configured to perform communication according to a first communication standard; a second communication interface configured to perform communication according to a second communication standard that is different from the first communication standard and that is a wireless communication standard; an image recorder; and a controller. The controller receives image data and first identification information from an image-data output device via the first communication interface. The controller broadcasts the received first identification information via the second communication interface.

A mobile terminal operated in cooperation with an information processing device capable of setting an authentication mode relating to user authentication to one mode selected from two kinds of modes of an authentication request mode requiring the user authentication, and a non-authentication request mode not requiring the user authentication, the mobile terminal including: a display unit configured to display a confirmation message inquiring a user of the mobile terminal whether to perform authentication operation; and a control unit configured to control display operation for displaying the confirmation message, acquiring, from the information processing device, authentication mode information being information representing whether the authentication mode is the authentication request mode or the non-authentication request mode, and displaying the confirmation message on the display unit, on condition that the authentication mode information is acquired, the authentication mode information representing that the authentication mode is the authentication request mode.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an apparatus including an arrangement configured to couple the apparatus to an alternating current (AC) outlet. The apparatus further includes a plurality of interfaces, wherein a first interface of the plurality of interfaces is configured to couple the apparatus to a wireless computing device, and wherein a second interface of the plurality of interfaces is configured to couple the apparatus to a peripheral device that is peripheral to the wireless computing device. The apparatus also includes a memory configured to store logic, wherein the logic is configured to receive, via the first interface, an operation from the wireless computing device, and send, via the second interface, the operation to the first device that is peripheral to the wireless computing device. The apparatus also includes a processor configured to execute the logic, wherein the processor is powered via the alternating current (AC) power outlet.
