INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD FOR INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18330236 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD FOR INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an information processing apparatus that has multiple functions and can be used in different environments. It includes the following components:
- Accepting unit: This unit allows the user to select one environment from a range of different environments for using the information processing apparatus.
- First notification unit: This unit provides a notification when there is a change in the use of a function among the multiple functions of the apparatus. The change occurs when a specific set of values corresponding to the selected environment is set.
- Second notification unit: This unit extracts a set value related to the change in use from the group of set values and provides a notification of that specific set value.
- Setting unit: This unit performs batch setting for the information processing apparatus based on the group of set values when instructed to do so.
Potential applications of this technology:
- This technology can be used in various electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and computers, where different environments require different settings and configurations.
- It can be applied in smart homes or smart offices, where the information processing apparatus needs to adapt to different user preferences and environmental conditions.
Problems solved by this technology:
- This technology simplifies the process of setting up an information processing apparatus in different environments by allowing batch setting based on a group of set values.
- It eliminates the need for manual configuration and reduces the chances of errors or inconsistencies in the settings.
Benefits of this technology:
- Users can easily switch between different environments without the hassle of manually adjusting the settings each time.
- It saves time and effort by allowing batch setting based on a group of set values.
- The notifications provided by the apparatus help users understand the changes in function and the specific set values associated with them.
Original Abstract Submitted
An information processing apparatus having a plurality of functions includes: an accepting unit configured to accept selection of one environment from among a plurality of different environments as a use environment of the information processing apparatus; a first notification unit configured to provide a notification of a function which is at least one of the plurality of functions and for which a change in use occurs when a group of set values corresponding to the selected one environment is set in the information processing apparatus; a second notification unit configured to extract a set value related to the change in use from the group of set values and provide a notification of the set value; and a setting unit configured to perform batch setting for the information processing apparatus on the basis of the group of set values in response to an instruction for setting the group of set values.
