Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and program for connecting an apparatus to the internet

摘要

An information processing apparatus includes a first communication unit, a second communication unit, and a control unit. The first communication unit is configured to be capable of communicating with a first apparatus via a predetermined communication path. The first apparatus has a predetermined sensing function and does not have an Internet connecting function. The second communication unit is configured to be capable of communicating with a second apparatus via the Internet. The control unit is configured to be capable of controlling the first communication unit to receive sensed data from the first apparatus and controlling the first communication unit to transmit the received data to the second apparatus.

1. An information processing apparatus, comprising:
a first communication unit configured to communicate with a first apparatus via a predetermined communication path, the first apparatus having a predetermined sensing function and not having an Internet connecting function; a second communication unit configured to communicate with a second apparatus via the Internet; a control unit configured to control the first communication unit to receive sensed data from the first apparatus and control the second communication unit to transmit the received sensed data to the second apparatus; and a storage unit, wherein, upon reception of sensed data by the control unit, the control unit updates a reception data management table stored in the storage unit with information corresponding to the received sensed data, and wherein the control unit is configured to determine whether the received sensed data is duplicate data based on reception time and content of the received sensed data, wherein the reception time and the content of the received sensed data are included as entries in the reception data management table.
