You may do.
(Step ST1102)
The television 200 displays information received from the mobile phone terminal 100 on its own display. More specifically, the television 200 displays the received mail information on the display according to the command received from the mobile phone terminal 100.

Here, an example of the notification information displayed on the television 200 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 14 is a diagram for explaining an example of notification information displayed on the television 200.
For example, the television 200 displays on the display unit 205 that the mobile phone terminal 100 has received mail information from the mobile phone terminal 500 based on the notification information received from the mobile phone terminal 100. More specifically, as shown in the figure, the television 200 displays an image registered in advance as the face image or avatar image of the user B of the mobile phone terminal 500 and displays “There is an incoming mail”. At the same time, the television 200 displays a selection field “display text” for selecting whether or not to display the mail content on the display unit 205. Also, the television 200 displays a selection column “message deletion” for selecting whether to delete the notification information displayed on the display unit 205 without confirming the mail content.
When “display text” is selected, the television 200 displays the mail content “Daddy. I am a station now, but do you have something to buy?” On the display unit 205.
As described above, the notification mode of notifying the reception of the mail as the notification information and displaying the mail content when instructed to display the mail content can be arbitrarily set by the user.

As described above, the mobile phone terminal 100 causes the television 200 and the PC 300 connected by the wireless LAN to detect the small receiving device 400. Thereby, the television 200 and the PC 300 detect the small receiving device 400 existing in a communication area communicable via Bluetooth (registered trademark), and acquire the radio wave intensity indicating the distance from the small receiving device 400.
Thereby, the mobile phone terminal 100 can determine the display device closest to the small receiver 400 based on the measured radio field intensity. Then, the mobile phone terminal 100 can transmit the notification information to the display device closest to the small receiving device 400.
Therefore, the mobile phone terminal 100 can transmit the notification information to the display device closer to the user A who owns the small receiving device 400. Therefore, even when the user A does not have the mobile phone terminal 100, the user A can be notified that the mobile phone terminal 100 has received the mail information from the display device closest to the user A. .
In other words, a display device far from the user A is unlikely to be viewed by the user A, and therefore does not display that the mobile phone terminal 100 has received the mail information. In this way, by displaying the notification information notifying that the mobile phone terminal 100 has received the mail information on the display device that is likely to be viewed by the user A, the user A can be notified of this efficiently. .

  Further, by displaying the mail content etc. on the display device near the user A, the user A can simply view the content displayed on the display device without checking the mail content on the mobile phone terminal 100. You can check the mail contents. Therefore, even when there is no mobile phone terminal 100 near the user A, it is possible to quickly check the contents of the mail, and the trouble of checking the mail information received by the user A via the mobile phone terminal 100 is reduced. Save.

  Further, when the small receiving device 400 is not in an environment in which the mobile phone terminal 100 can communicate with the Bluetooth (registered trademark), notification information cannot be transmitted from the mobile phone terminal 100 to the small receiving device 400. Further, since the display screen of the small receiving device 400 is small, it is difficult to see the small display screen of the small receiving device 400 when the mail document is long or a photo is attached. In such a case, the information received by the mobile phone terminal 100 is displayed on a display device that has a larger screen than the small receiving device 400 and is likely to be close to the user A. It becomes easy to confirm the information received by the telephone terminal 100.

  Further, when the television 200 and the PC 300 receive the inquiry response signal from the small receiver 400, the television 200 and the PC 300 associate the MAC address associated with the inquiry response signal with the radio wave intensity. Therefore, it is sufficient that the radio field intensity of the small receiver 400 can be detected when the mobile phone terminal 100 requests the radio field intensity with the small receiver 400, and the TV 200 and the PC 300 repeatedly transmit the inquiry. No need.

  Further, the mobile phone terminal 100 can determine the notification mode of the notification information according to the content of the mail, the mail sender, or the incoming call partner. The notification mode of the notification information can be arbitrarily set by the user.

FIG. 15 is a sequence diagram for explaining an example of a processing flow of the information transmission system 1 according to the present embodiment. In addition, since the same process as the process which concerns on 1st Embodiment is applicable to step ST1-6, detailed description is abbreviate | omitted.

(Step ST8)
The mobile phone terminal 100 determines the transmission destination of the notification information based on the information received from the television 200 and the PC 300 and determines the notification mode of the notification information to be displayed on the television 200 and the PC 300 based on the determination result. Then, the mobile phone terminal 100 transmits notification information to the television 200 and the PC 300 according to the determined notification mode. In the present embodiment, the mobile phone terminal 100 changes the information displayed on the television 200 and the PC 300 according to the distance between the small receiving device 400 and the display device (the television 200 and the PC 300).

Specific examples in which notification information displayed on the television 200 and the PC 300 are different will be described.
For example, the amount of information displayed on a display device closer to the small receiving device 400 may be larger than the information displayed on a display device farther from the small receiving device 400. It is assumed that the mobile phone terminal 100 receives mail information from the mobile phone terminal 500. For example, for the television 200 close to the small receiving device 400, the mobile phone terminal 100 can receive the subject of the email, the user B or email address indicating the email sender, the email reception time, and the image attached to the email. Display presence or absence. On the other hand, for the PC 300 far from the small receiver 400, the mobile phone terminal 100 displays, for example, only that a mail is received from the user B, and does not display the mail subject, the mail reception time, and the like. Here, when the mail address and the person are registered in the phone book of the mobile phone terminal 100, the information indicating the mail transmission source is displayed in association with the user B registered in the phone book from the mail address. If it is not registered, only the email address may be displayed.

  Further, the mobile phone terminal 100 may display only simple information on a display device farther from the small receiving device 400, and may display specific information on a display device closer to the small receiving device 400. . For example, on the television 200 close to the small receiving device 400, the mobile phone terminal 100 displays a text indicating the content of the mail, an image attached to the mail, and the like. On the other hand, for example, the mobile phone terminal 100 displays only that a mail has been received from the user B, and does not display the content of the mail, an attached image, or the like on the PC 300 far from the small receiving device 400.

  Furthermore, the mobile phone terminal 100 transmits the same information to a plurality of display devices, and is attached to a character or image (an image indicating a display area, a text image, or an email) displayed on a display device far from the small receiving device 400. The image displayed on the display device close to the small receiving device 400 may be enlarged as compared with the image including the image or the like. For example, when the mobile phone terminal 100 transmits mail information to the television 200 close to the small receiving device 400, the mobile phone terminal 100 gives a command to the television 200 to instruct to enlarge and display characters and images included in the mail information. Send. That is, even for the same character string, the size of characters displayed on the television 200 is larger than the size of characters displayed on the PC 300. Alternatively, the image displayed on the display device far from the small receiving device 400 may be reduced. In this case, a command for instructing to reduce and display characters and images included in the mail information is transmitted to the PC 300. These enlargement / reduction ratios can be arbitrarily set.

  In this way, information indicating how to change the information displayed on the television 200 and the PC 300 according to the distance between the small receiving device 400 and the display device (the television 200 and the PC 300) is registered in advance. And registered in the message content storage unit 1633. In addition, the mobile phone terminal 100 does not transmit a command for enlarging / reducing, but can select and register a different font size for characters, for example, or can provide a resolution prepared in advance for icon images and avatar images. It may be possible to select and register different images. That is, when the display size to be displayed on the display device is changed according to the distance from the display device, the mobile phone terminal 100 transmits a command for enlarging / reducing the same display information to the television 200 and the PC 300 to display the display device. The size may be changed on the side. Further, the display size may be changed for each display device on the mobile phone terminal 100 side, and for example, images with different size fonts or different numbers of pixels may be transmitted to the television 200 and the PC 300 in advance.

Next, a part of the processing flow in the information transmission method according to the present embodiment will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. The overall processing flow is the same as the method described with reference to FIG. 8 in the first embodiment. In this embodiment, since the contents of step ST107 and step ST110 described in FIG. 8 are different, this different part will be described below.
First, with reference to FIG. 16, another example of the process of step ST107 of the flowchart described in FIG. 8 will be described in detail. FIG. 16 is a flowchart for explaining details of a part of the processing flow in the information transmission method according to the present embodiment.

(Step ST2071)
The transmission destination determination unit 1631 of the analysis unit 163 of the message control unit 106 of the mobile phone terminal 100 determines the distance relationship between the small receiver 400 and the display device based on the information indicating the radio wave intensity received from the television 200 and the PC 300. judge.
Specifically, the transmission destination determination unit 1631 compares the distance between the television 200 and the small receiving device 400 and the distance between the PC 300 and the small receiving device 400 and determines which distance is shorter. The transmission destination determination unit 1631 determines that the display device that has detected the strongest radio wave intensity among the radio wave intensity detected by the television 200 and the PC 300 is the display apparatus closest to the small receiver 400. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the radio wave intensity of Bluetooth (registered trademark) of the small receiver 400 detected by the television 200 is the strongest. In this case, the transmission destination determination unit 1631 determines that the television 200 is the display device closest to the small receiving device 400. Then, the transmission destination determination unit 1631 searches for a display device having the next strongest radio wave intensity. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the radio field intensity detected by the PC 300 is the second highest after the radio field intensity detected by the television 200. In this case, the transmission destination determination unit 1631 determines that the PC 300 is a display device closest to the small receiver 400 after the television 200.

(Step ST2072)
The display content determination unit 1632 of the analysis unit 163 transmits the mail information from the user B to the television 200 determined as the transmission destination with reference to the message content storage unit 1633 based on the determination result of the transmission destination determination unit 1631. The setting value indicating the notification mode when notifying of the fact is read.
For example, for the display device closest to the small receiving device 400, it is attached to the subject of the email, the text indicating the content of the email, the user name and email address indicating the sender of the email, the reception time of the email, and the email. It is assumed that displaying an image or the like is registered in the message content storage unit 1633. For the display device that is the second closest to the small receiver 400, the mobile phone terminal 100 displays, for example, only that a mail has been received and a user name or mail address indicating the transmission source. It is assumed that the message content storage unit 1633 registers that no image or attached image is displayed.
In this case, for the television 200 close to the small receiver 400, the display content determination unit 1632 attaches to the body text indicating the mail content, the user B or mail address indicating the mail transmission source, the mail reception time, and the mail. A setting value indicating that the displayed image or the like is displayed is read. Further, the display content determination unit 1632 displays only the user name or mail address indicating the transmission source and the mail name or attached image indicating that the mail is received from the user B to the PC 300 far from the small receiving device 400. Read a set value indicating that the display is not performed.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 17, another example of the process of step ST110 of the flowchart described in FIG. 8 will be described in detail. FIG. 17 is a flowchart for explaining details of a part of the processing flow in the information transmission method according to the present embodiment.

(Step ST2101)
Then, the message transmission unit 1623 of the transmission unit 162 of the message control unit 106 of the mobile phone terminal 100 determines the distance from the small receiver 400 with respect to the television 200 and the PC 300 determined as the transmission destination of the notification information in step ST2071. Information according to the distance is displayed on each of the television 200 and the PC 300. Specifically, the message transmission unit 1623 extracts and extracts information to be transmitted to each of the television 200 and the PC 300 from the mail information received from the mobile phone terminal 500 based on the setting value acquired in step ST2071. The transmitted information is transmitted to each of the television 200 and the PC 300. In addition, when the notification mode of the notification information to be displayed on the TV 200 and the PC 300 is defined by the setting value acquired in step ST2071, the message transmission unit 1623 adds a command indicating the notification mode to the extracted information. The data is transmitted to the television 200 and the PC 300 in association with each other.
(Step ST2102)
Then, the television 200 and the PC 300 display the received information on their own display unit 205 (display), for example, according to a command.
For example, the television 200 displays the subject of the mail, the text indicating the mail content, the user B or mail address indicating the mail transmission source, the mail reception time, the image attached to the mail, and the like on its own display. Further, the PC 300 displays on the display itself only that the mail is received from the user B and only the user name or mail address indicating the transmission source.

Thus, by changing the information displayed on the display device according to the distance between the small receiving device 400 and the display device, it is possible to display information corresponding to the notification target person on the display device. For example, when the user A of the mobile phone terminal 100 is near the TV 200, all the mail information received from the mobile phone terminal 500 can be displayed on the TV 200. Thereby, the user A can confirm all the information from the television 200 without confirming the mobile phone terminal 100, and can save the trouble of confirming the mobile phone terminal 100.
On the other hand, when user A is not near PC 300, but user C is near PC 300, user C can know that user A's mobile phone terminal 100 has received a mail from user B. Therefore, even when the user A is not aware of the notification information displayed on the television 200, the user C can notify the user A directly. Further, the contents of the mail received by the user A can be kept secret from the user C.

  Further, for PC 300 estimated to be far away from the user A, the notification information is displayed in characters larger than those of the television 200 estimated to be nearby, so that the user A can In either case, the notification information can be confirmed. For example, it may be displayed in a display area and character size that is twice that of the nearest display device. In this case, although the user A is near the TV 200, the user A notices the display of the PC 300 by causing the PC 300 far away from the user A to display large when the user A is not looking at the TV 200 and is looking away. The possibility of confirming that the mail has been received increases. In addition, it is useful because it is highly possible that the user can confirm that the mail has been received even when the notification setting such as sound or light is not performed on the display device in the setting of the mobile phone terminal 100.

In the present embodiment, the transmission destination determination unit 1631 calculates the distance from the small receiving device 400 based on the received information indicating the radio wave intensity, and transmits the notification information according to the distance from the small receiving device 400. While determining the destination, the notification mode may be determined according to the distance.
More specifically, the transmission destination determination unit 1631 determines the level of the distance between the television 200 and the small receiver 400 and the level of the distance between the PC 300 and the small receiver 400 based on the information indicating the radio wave intensity. To do. For example, it is assumed that the distance from the small receiver 400 is defined by four levels of “very far”, “far”, “close”, and “very close”. In this case, each level of “very far”, “far”, “close”, “very close” is associated with a corresponding range of radio wave intensity. For example, the “very far” level is associated with the range with the weakest radio field intensity, and the “very close” level is associated with the range with the strongest radio field intensity. That is, each level of “very far”, “far”, “close”, “very close” is associated with a range of radio wave intensities that differ in stages, and in this embodiment, Corresponding to the range of radio wave intensity that increases stepwise in this order.

  The transmission destination determination unit 1631 has a radio wave intensity detected by the television 200 and the PC 300 in any one of radio wave intensity ranges corresponding to levels of “very far”, “far”, “close”, and “very close”. It is determined whether it is applicable. Then, transmission destination determination unit 1631 determines that the level corresponding to the range corresponding to the radio wave intensity detected by television 200 and PC 300 is the distance from small receiving device 400. The transmission destination determination unit 1631 transmits all information such as mail contents to the display device determined to be “very close” to the small receiving device 400, and is determined to be “close”. It is also possible to send simple information for notifying the display device of a mail reception with a display area and character size that is twice (or 0.5 times) “very close”. In addition, the transmission destination determination unit 1631 may not transmit the notification information to a display device that has been determined that the level of the distance to the small receiving device 400 is “very far” or “far”.
