Communication system, computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon information processing program, information processing method, information processing apparatus, and information processing system

摘要

Another information processing apparatus in a communicable range of a short-distance wireless communication is repeatedly searched for, and wireless communication is automatically established therewith, first data is automatically transmitted to the other information processing apparatus with which the wireless communication has been established, and first data transmitted from the other information processing apparatus is automatically received by means of the short-distance wireless communication. Further, transmission of second data is permitted which is different from first data to the other information processing apparatus with which the transmission/reception of the first data has been performed before.

主权项

1. A communication system which includes a plurality of information processing apparatuses, each of the plurality of information processing apparatuses comprising:
a memory for storing first data; wireless communication circuitry; and processing circuitry for
controlling the wireless communication circuitry to repeatedly search for partner information processing apparatuses in a wireless communication range of the information processing apparatus,for each partner information processing apparatus found during the searching, controlling the wireless communication circuitry to automatically establish wireless communication therewith, controlling the wireless communication circuitry to automatically transmit transmission data including the first data thereto, controlling the wireless communication circuitry to automatically receive, as reception data, transmission data including first data transmitted therefrom, and controlling the wireless communication circuitry to automatically disconnect the wireless communication therewith when the transmitting of the transmission data and the receiving of the reception data are complete;setting, for each of one or more of the partner information processing apparatuses from which reception data is received, respective second data different from the first data andstoring the respective second data in the memory, wherein the transmission data transmitted by the information processing apparatus to partner information processing apparatuses found during searching subsequent to the setting and storing of respective second data includes the respective set and stored second data.
