A robot apparatus which, by exploiting limited resources highly efficiently, is capable of making expressions matched to the motion or to complex variegated feeling or instinct states, representing the crucial information in achieving smooth communication with the human being, is disclosed. A method of expression by the robot apparatus is also disclosed. The robot apparatus expresses plural states, such as emotional states or the processing states of perceptual recognition, by a light radiating device loaded at a location of the head part of the humanoid robot apparatus walking on two legs. The light radiating device includes e.g. the color hue, saturation and patterns of light emission as expressive units represented independently of one another. A plural number of orthogonal states, that is, the emotional states and the states of perceptual recognition, are expressed simultaneously, using a plural number of the orthogonal representations of the light radiating device correlated by a unit for correlating plural reciprocally orthogonal states, derived from the own inner states or external stimuli, with at least one expressive unit.

Disclosed is a method for enabling a mobile station existing in a serving cell area to perform a handover procedure in a broadband mobile communication system including the mobile station, a serving base station providing a service to the mobile station, and one or more target base stations containing at least one target cell area overlapping with the serving cell area occupied by the serving base station. The method includes transmitting a handover request message from the mobile station to the serving base station when it is detected that a performance of a handover is necessary; and transmitting a handover indication message containing handover cancel information to the serving base station when the mobile station determines a cancel of the handover while the mobile station is being handed over to one or more target base stations by the serving base station.

An IC tag module enables data communication with, and receipt of power from, an external unit through a wireless port and enables the same with an electronic device in which the IC tag module is incorporated through a wired port, which includes a wired communication port and a wired power supply port. The IC tag module further includes a power supply circuit unit for combining power supplied from both the wireless port and the wired power supply port and for supplying the combined power supply to the IC tag module. A data storage circuit unit of the IC tag module stores data received through the communication ports, and a control circuit controls the operation of the module. The power supply circuit detects whether power is supplied first through the wireless port or the wired power supply port. If power is supplied from both ports, the control circuit enables communication with the data storage circuit unit through the port from which power was supplied first, and disables communication through the other port.

A communication device is provided which can smoothly perform communication using a video phone function by suppressing the video phone function depending on whether the video phone function is in an effective condition.

When an incoming call using the video phone function is occurred or when an outgoing call using the video phone function is performed, a control unit determines whether the video phone function is in the effective condition. Only when it is determined that the video phone function is in the effective condition, the control unit starts communication using the video phone function. When it is determined that the video phone function is not in the effective condition, the control unit 10 executes control to perform only audio communication without performing the communication using the video phone function.

Method and system for reporting to a source user before communication begins communication means usable by both the source and a destination user. Operable communication means at each user's information terminal are stored in a list DB 2 in advance for each user. A selection device 1 receives a destination user designation from the source user who is requesting communication, and acquires the usable communication means of the destination user and the source user respectively from the list DB 2. There are also cases in which the selection device 1 acquires communication means usable by the source user from the selection device 1 or a user terminal 4. Next, the selection device 1 creates a candidate list describing communication means which both parties can use, and sends it from a WWW server, for example, to the source user terminal. Before communication begins, the candidate list is displayed at the source user terminal by a WWW browser, for example.

A communication terminal includes a display device configured to display an image on the display device according to image display parameters; a processor to process the images data; and a communication interface to transmit or receive data, the communication interface configured to be coupled to a remote image processing device via a network.
