Information processing apparatus and information processing method

摘要

According to one embodiment, a first controller is connected to one of a plurality of terminals. A detector is configured to detect a connection between each of the plurality of terminals and an MHL cable. A power supply module supplies electric power to a first connected apparatus connected via a first MHL cable in response to a first connection detection between a first terminal and the first MHL cable. A second controller is configured to connect the first terminal and the first controller, in response to the first connection detection, and to connect a second terminal and the first controller, when a signal is not received from the first connected apparatus via the first terminal at a timing of a second connection detection between the second terminal and a second MHL cable.

主权项

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
a plurality of terminals; a first controller configured to connect with one of the plurality of terminals and to process a signal from the connected terminal; a detector configured to detect a connection between each of the plurality of terminals and an MHL cable compliant with an MHL standard; a power supply module configured to supply electric power to a first connected apparatus connected via a first MHL cable in response to a first connection detection between a first terminal and the first MHL cable; and a second controller configured to connect the first terminal and the first controller in response to the first connection detection, and to connect a second terminal and the first controller when a signal is not received from the first connected apparatus via the first terminal at a timing of a second connection detection between the second terminal and a second MHL cable.
