Information Processing Device Near Field Communication Setup
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Information processing devices face inconvenience in storing setting information before the application program is installed, requiring a re-establishment of near field wireless communication after installation, which decreases user convenience.
Innovation Solution
The device performs a communication process using a first server to obtain and store access information, identification information, and then downloads and installs an application program, allowing it to establish a connection with an external device for communication processing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the information processing device receives setting information before the application program is installed, then the device cannot store the setting information, but if the device waits until after installation, then an additional communication process is required
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by having the information processing device receive and store identification information from the external device before the application program is installed. The device stores this identification information in its storage unit, and after installation, uses this pre-stored identification information to retrieve the setting information from the external device, thereby eliminating the need for a second near field wireless communication session.
2Loss of information
If the device performs near field wireless communication to receive setting information, then the setting information can be obtained, but the process requires two separate communication sessions
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the identification information from the setting information during the first near field wireless communication session. The information processing device receives the setting information, extracts only the identification information component, and stores it separately. This extracted identification information is then used in the second session to retrieve the actual setting information, thereby simplifying what needs to be stored during the first communication.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the application program is installed before receiving setting information, then the device can process the information, but the user must wait for re-communication after installation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables preliminary action by allowing the information processing device to perform the near field wireless communication and store identification information before the application program installation is complete. This preliminary storage of identification information ensures that when the application is installed and activated, the device can immediately retrieve setting information without requiring the user to re-initiate communication, thus smoothing the operation flow.

AI summary
An information processing device may obtain, from a target object, first access information and first information. The information processing device may send the obtained first information to a first server. The information processing device may receive, from the first server, identification information unique to the first information and second access information. The information processing device may store the received identification information in a storage and send an access request information to a second server. The information processing device may download an application program from the second server, install the application program, and accept an instruction for activating the application program. The information processing device may send the identification information to the first server and receive the first information from the first server. The information processing device may establish a connection with the external device by using the first information and execute a communication processing.
