SEARCH SUPPORTING APPARATUS AND SEARCH SUPPORTING METHOD

摘要

A search support apparatus that makes it easy to search for an object and communicate with a communication apparatus which manages the object. In this apparatus, when control section 105 receives object information from demodulation section 102a, it reads object information (search conditions) registered in object information section 103b in condition registration section 103, compares the information with the input object information, generates a control signal for controlling a reporting operation of operation section 106 according to the comparison result and outputs the control signal to operation section 106. Operation section 106 executes a reporting operation according to the comparison result of the object information at control section 105, and is constructed of rotation control section 106a and vibration motor 106b as shown in FIG. 4. Rotation control section 106a controls the intensity or the period of vibration of vibration motor 106b according to the control signal input from control section 105.
