An information providing device is capable of communicating with an image forming device, a data managing device, and a transmission terminal. The information providing device includes a storage unit; a communication unit that transmits a forming instruction to instruct the image forming device to perform image forming, and receives, from the image forming device, storage location information indicating the data managing device that stores data obtained by image forming by the image forming device and indicating a storage location in the data managing device; and a storage location managing unit that generates, in the storage unit, management information in which identification information of the image data is associated with the storage location information. The communication unit receives the data saved in the storage location indicated by the storage location information from the data managing device and transmits the received data to the transmission terminal.

A video-conference table and a video-conference system. The video-conference table includes an imaging device disposed outside facing space that faces an object to be captured on a holding surface. The imaging device is configured to capture the object to be captured held on the holding surface, in a slanting direction with reference to a normal-line direction of the holding surface. The video-conference table further includes an image processing device configured to perform image processing including correcting image data obtained by capturing of the imaging device to image data obtained when the surface of the object to be captured is captured in a normal-line direction of the holding surface. The video-conference system includes the video-conference table coupled to an attachment having a surface approximately flush with the holding surface in a horizontal direction.
