COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, COMMUNICATION METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240126854 titled 'COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, COMMUNICATION METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The communication apparatus described in the patent application allows for bidirectional communication between a target person and a first terminal operated by a different person. The authentication unit verifies the identity of the target person before enabling communication with the first terminal.

  • The authentication unit authenticates a target person.
  • The communication unit facilitates bidirectional communication with a first terminal associated with the target person.
  • Information transmitted to the first terminal is related to the target person.
  • Information received from the first terminal includes messages from the operator of the first terminal to the target person.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in secure communication systems, remote assistance services, and personalized messaging platforms.

Problems Solved

1. Ensures secure communication by authenticating the target person before allowing interaction with the first terminal. 2. Facilitates personalized communication between individuals by transmitting information related to the target person.

Benefits

1. Enhanced security and privacy in communication. 2. Improved user experience through personalized messaging.

Potential Commercial Applications

1. Secure messaging apps for sensitive information exchange. 2. Remote assistance services for troubleshooting and customer support.

Possible Prior Art

There may be existing communication systems that require authentication before enabling interaction with specific terminals, but the specific combination of bidirectional communication with a target person and a different operator is unique to this patent application.

Unanswered Questions

How does the authentication unit verify the identity of the target person?

The patent application does not provide details on the specific authentication methods used.

What types of information are transmitted between the communication apparatus and the first terminal?

The patent application mentions that information related to the target person is sent to the first terminal, but the specific content of this information is not specified.


Original Abstract Submitted

a communication apparatus includes an authentication unit and a communication unit. the authentication unit authenticates a target person. the communication unit transmits and receives information to and from a first terminal associated with the target person when the authentication has succeeded. in other words, the communication apparatus performs bidirectional communication with the first terminal. the first terminal is operated by, for example, a different person from the target person. at least a part of information transmitted by the communication unit to the first terminal is related to the target person. further, at least a part of information received by the communication unit from the first terminal includes information from a person who operates the first terminal to the target person.
