FIG. 3 is a functional block diagram showing a functional configuration for executing the selected product etc. sharing process among the functional configurations of the user terminal 1.
The selected product etc. sharing process is to hold a symbol (icon, product image, etc.) indicating a product or service selected by one user U in the user terminal 1 of the user U and a plurality of other users U's. It is a process for realizing the sharing of the symbol among a plurality of users U by holding it in the user terminal 1 as well.

When the selected product etc. sharing process is executed, as shown in FIG. 3, in the CPU 21, the selected symbol receiving unit 51, the product etc. symbol list screen generating unit 52, the display control unit 53, and the sharing unit 54. And the EC screen generation unit 55 functions.
A product symbol holding DB 61 is provided in one area of the storage unit 18.

FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram for explaining an overview of the sharing process for selected products and the like.
The user U-U operates the input unit 16 of the user terminal 1-U, and all products or services traded on the Internet (online) and all products traded on the Internet (offline) Alternatively, one or more desired items can be selected from the services.
The method of selecting a product or service is not particularly limited, but in the present embodiment, a method of selecting a symbol such as a product is employed. Here, the product etc. symbol may be an icon or the like generated in advance, or may be trimmed from a photograph or the like.

The selected symbol receiving unit 51 (FIG. 3) of the user terminal 1-U receives the product symbol (hereinafter, specifically referred to as “selected symbol”) selected by the user U-U, and stores the product symbol. Store in DB61.
In the example of FIG. 3, the product symbol S 1 is received as a selected symbol by the selected symbol receiving unit 51 and held in the product etc. symbol holding DB 61.

The product etc. symbol list screen generation unit 52 generates data of a screen (hereinafter referred to as “product etc. symbol list screen”) that displays a list of one or more product etc. symbols held in the product etc. symbol holding DB 61.
The display control unit 53 performs control to display the product etc. symbol list screen on the display unit 17.
In the example of FIG. 3, the product symbol S1 received as the selected symbol by the selected symbol receiving unit 51 and the product received as the selected symbol by another user terminal 1-K described later and shared by the user terminal 1 A product etc. symbol list screen including the equivalent symbol S2 is displayed on the display unit 17.
In the example of FIG. 4, it can be seen that the product etc. symbol list screen 71 is displayed on the display unit 17 of the user terminal 1-U.

The sharing unit 54 transmits the product etc. symbol held in the product etc. symbol holding DB 61 via the communication unit 19, and the product etc. symbol holding DB 61 (not shown in FIG. 3) in the other user terminal 1-K. ), The product symbol is shared between the other user U-K managing the other user terminal 1-K and the user U.
In the example of FIG. 3, the product symbol S1 received as the selected symbol by the selected symbol receiving unit 51 is transmitted to the user terminal 1-K via the communication unit 19, so that the user terminal 1 and the user terminal 1- In addition, in the example of FIG. 3, a single item such as the commodity symbol S1 is shared by being transmitted to another user terminal 1-K. As shown in FIG. 4, the entire data of the product etc. symbol list screen 71 may be shared by being transmitted to another user terminal 1 -K. In the following, for the sake of convenience of explanation, the latter example of FIG. 4, that is, an example shared by the product etc. symbol list screen 71 will be described.
That is, in the example of FIG. 4, a software button 72 for instructing sharing (hereinafter referred to as “shared button 72”) is displayed on the display unit 17 below the product symbol list screen 71. Therefore, the user U-U presses the share button 72 to display the product symbol list screen 71 on the other users U-K through the other user terminals 1-K through 1-M. It can be shared with each of UM.
As described above, the sharing destination of the product etc. symbol list screen 71 is only the other user terminal 1-K for convenience in the example of FIG. 3, but is not limited to this, and the functional configuration of FIG. Similarly, all other user terminals 1 (in the example of FIG. 4, other user terminals 1-K to 1-M) are provided.
Also, the form of transmission to the sharing destination is not particularly limited as long as it is a form intervening the network N, and may be any form such as SNS, E-Mail, mobile application (mobile application software).

In this way, the product etc. symbol held in the product etc. symbol holding DB 61, that is, the product etc. symbol included in the product etc. symbol list screen 71 is another user terminal 1 having the same functional configuration as FIG. In the example of FIG. 4, it is shared with users around the world (in the example of FIG. 4, other users UK to UM) that have other user terminals 1-K to 1-M.
In other words, the goods or services selected by the user UU (including those other than those by electronic commerce) are shared with people all over the world (in the example of FIG. 4, other users UK to UM). Can be done.
Thereby, for example, the provider of the goods or services allows the user UU to select the goods or services of the user, so that the goods or services of the goods or services can be sent to people all over the world (in the example of FIG. It is possible to construct a new business model that can be recognized by the users UK to UM).

The sharing unit 54 in FIG. 3 transmits the product symbol S2 selected by another user U (in the example of FIG. 3, another user U-K having another user terminal 1-K) via the communication unit 19. The product symbol S 2 can be shared between the other user U and the user U by acquiring the product and storing it in the product symbol holding DB 61.
As described above, in the example of FIG. 3, the drawing is performed so that only the product symbol S2 is shared. However, in the present embodiment, the product symbol list screen is shared.
Here, the display form on the display unit 17 of the user terminal 1 is not particularly limited. For example, it is possible to adopt a display form in which a product etc. symbol list screen itself shared with other user terminals 1-K is displayed. Further, for example, a new product symbol list screen including a different product symbol (product symbol S1 in the example of FIG. 3) previously held in the product symbol holding DB 61 is recreated, and the product symbol is recreated. A display form such as displaying a list screen can also be adopted.
In other words, in the example of FIG. 4, from the viewpoint of the user UK, the product or service selected by another person (for example, the other user UU as viewed from the user UK) Because they can be shared, they can recognize new products or services that are different from those they have selected.
In particular, the user UK can recognize a product or service selected by the desired person by selecting a desired person such as a longing person (other user U-U, etc.) as another person. Very convenient.

The EC screen generation unit 55 generates data of a screen that can execute EC (electronic commerce) (hereinafter referred to as “EC screen”).
Execution of EC does not necessarily have to be settled, and it may include at least a process of accepting a transaction target selection operation by the user U and notifying the business partner directly or indirectly. That is, it is sufficient to include at least a function for accepting a transaction target (product etc.) selection operation by the input unit 16 and a function for transmitting information on the transaction target via the communication unit 19 as functions of the EC screen. Functions can be added arbitrarily.

FIG. 5 shows an example of the EC screen.
As shown in FIG. 5, the EC screen of the present embodiment includes a product symbol list screen 71 and a software button 73 (hereinafter referred to as “purchase button 73”) for instructing the purchase of the selected product or service. Contains.
That is, as shown in FIG. 5, the product etc. symbol list screen 71 on the user terminal 1-U side of the user U-U is transmitted to the other users UK through UM via the network N as described above. Each of the user terminals 1-K to 1-M is also shared.
Each of the users U (users U-U and other users U-K to U-M) make purchases from the product symbols included in the product symbol list screen 71 shared in this way. An operation of selecting a desired product symbol can be performed on the input unit 16 of each user terminal 1.
Then, each of the users U can instruct purchase of a product or service corresponding to the selected symbol such as a product by pressing the purchase button 73.
That is, when the EC screen generation unit 55 recognizes the product symbol selected by the user U and recognizes the pressing operation of the purchase button 73, the transaction with the user U regarding the product or service indicated by the recognized product symbol is displayed. To control.
Here, the control of the transaction with the user U is, as shown in FIG. 4, the product or service to be purchased cannot always be purchased online, and the EC screen generation unit 55 does not necessarily pay as described above. This is because it is not necessary to execute the processes up to the above, and it is sufficient to execute at least the process of directly or indirectly notifying the customer of the purchase target.

As shown in FIG. 5, the user U-U can conveniently purchase the goods or services selected by the user U-U at a desired timing.
In addition, each of the users UK to UM can easily purchase a product or service shared with another person (the user UU in the example of FIG. 5) at a desired timing.
Here, for each of the users UK to UM, if the user UU is a desired person (such as a longing person), the product or service selected by the desired person (such as a longing person) Can be purchased easily.
In other words, on the user UU side, the product or service selected by the user UU can be easily transmitted to each of the other users UK to UM for purchase.
Accordingly, FIG. 5 can be used as a further development of the business model described in the description of FIG. In this case, from the provider of the product or service, the user U-U can negotiate with the user U-U who is regarded as a desired person (a longed-for person) by many people all over the world, and the user U -By having U select, there is also an effect that the possibility that people around the world will purchase the goods or services of their own will increase dramatically compared to the conventional case.

Next, the selected product etc. sharing process executed by the user terminal 1 having the functional configuration of FIG. 3 will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 6 is a flowchart for explaining the selected product etc. sharing process executed by the user terminal 1 having the functional configuration of FIG.

In step S 1, the selected symbol receiving unit 51 determines whether a product or the like has been selected by the user U.
When the user U performs an operation of selecting a product or the like via the input unit 16, it is determined as YES in Step S1, and the process proceeds to Step S2.
In step S 2, the selected symbol receiving unit 51 receives the selected symbol of the user U (the product symbol S 1 in the example of FIG. 3) and stores it in the product symbol holding DB 61. Thereby, a process progresses to step S3.
On the other hand, if the user U has not selected a product or the like, it is determined as NO in step S1, and the process proceeds to step S3 without executing the process in step S2.

In step S 3, the sharing unit 54 determines whether a selection symbol of another user U has been received.
When a selection symbol of another user U (in the example of FIG. 3, a product symbol S2 transmitted from another user terminal 1-K) is transmitted and received by the communication unit 19, YES in step S3. If it is determined that there is, the process proceeds to step S4.
In step S 4, the sharing unit 54 receives the selected symbol of the other user U (the product symbol S 2 in the example of FIG. 3) and stores it in the product symbol holding DB 61. As described above, the selected symbol alone of the other user U may be held, but in the present embodiment, the product etc. symbol list screen (data) including the selected symbol of the other user U is held. When the selected symbol of the other user U is held in this way, the process proceeds to step S5.
On the other hand, when the selection symbol of the other user U is not transmitted, it is determined as NO in Step S3, and the process proceeds to Step S5 without performing the process of Step S4.

In step S 5, the product etc. symbol list screen generation unit 52 determines whether or not a product etc. symbol list screen display request has been received.
When the user U performs an operation for requesting display of a commodity symbol list screen via the input unit 16, it is determined as YES in Step S5, and the process proceeds to Step S6.
In step S 6, the product etc. symbol list screen generation unit 52 generates a product etc. symbol list screen including the selected symbols of the own user U and other users U.
In the example of FIG. 6, the product etc. symbol list screen of the other user U is not diverted as it is, but is regenerated to include the selected symbol of the own user U. You may make it divert as it is.
In step S 7, the display control unit 53 displays a product symbol list screen on the display unit 17.
In step S 8, the sharing unit 54 transmits the product symbol list screen (including the product user's U symbol of step S 2) to the other user terminals 1 of the other users U via the communication unit 19. Then, the symbol list screen for products etc. is shared with other users U.
Note that the processing in step S8 is executed when the share button 72 in FIG. 4 is pressed in this embodiment.
When the process in step S8 is completed, the process proceeds to step S9.

On the other hand, if there is no request for display of the product etc. symbol list screen, it is determined as NO in step S5, and the processing proceeds to step S9 without executing the processing of steps S6 to S8.

In step S9, the EC screen generation unit 55 determines whether or not an EC screen display request has been received.
When the user U performs an operation of requesting EC screen display via the input unit 16, it is determined as YES in Step S9, and the process proceeds to Step S10.
In step S10, the EC screen generation unit 55 generates an EC screen (see FIG. 5) including the selection symbols of the own user U and the other user U.
In the example of FIG. 6, the product etc. symbol list screen of the other user U is not used as it is, but is generated again to include the product etc. symbol of the own user U. May be used as it is.
In step S 11, the display control unit 53 displays the EC screen on the display unit 17. Thereby, a process progresses to step S12.

On the other hand, if there is no EC screen display request, it is determined as NO in step S9, and the process proceeds to step S12 without executing the processes in steps S10 and S11.

In step S12, the user terminal 1 determines whether or not an instruction to end the process is given.
The instruction to end the process is not particularly limited, but in this embodiment, an instruction to turn off the power of the user terminal 1 is adopted. In other words, in this embodiment, it is determined NO in step S12 until the power-off instruction is issued, the process is returned to step S1, and the subsequent processes are repeated.
On the other hand, when a power-off instruction is given, it is determined as YES in step S12, and the selected product etc. sharing process ends.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and modifications, improvements, etc. within a scope that can achieve the object of the present invention are included in the present invention.

For example, in the above-described embodiment, the information processing apparatus to which the present invention is applied is the user terminal 1 itself. However, the information processing apparatus is not particularly limited thereto, and may be another terminal that can remotely control the user terminal 1. Alternatively, a device owned by a user who does not have the display unit 17 (a device using an external monitor) may be used.

In other words, the information processing apparatus to which the present invention is applied can take various embodiments including the user terminal 1 as the above-described embodiment and having the following configuration.
That is, the information processing apparatus to which the present invention is applied, including the user terminal 1,
Holding means for holding a symbol indicating the product or service selected by the user;
Sharing means for causing the holding means in another information processing apparatus to hold the held symbol so that the symbol is shared between the user who manages the other information processing apparatus and the user;
Is provided.

The symbols held in the holding means are shared with people (other users who are other people) around the world who have devices (other information processing apparatuses) having the same holding means.
In other words, the product or service selected by the user (including both EC and other items) can be shared with people all over the world.
As a result, for example, a provider of a product or service can create a new business model in which people around the world can recognize the product or service of the user by having the user select the product or service of the user. Can be built.

The sharing means further causes the holding means to hold a symbol indicating a product or service selected by the other person, so that the symbol is shared with the previous other person and the user.
be able to.

Since the user himself / herself can also share a product or service (symbol) selected by another person, the user can recognize a new product or service different from the one selected by the user.
In particular, it is convenient because the user can recognize a product or service selected by the desired person by selecting the desired person (such as a longing person) as another person.

Transaction control means for recognizing a symbol selected by the user from among the symbols held by the holding means and controlling a transaction with the user for a product or service indicated by the recognized symbol. it can.

This is convenient because the user can easily purchase the goods or services selected by the user at a desired timing.
Further, the user can easily purchase a product or service shared with another person at a desired timing, which is convenient. In particular, when the desired person (such as a longing person) is selected as another person, this effect becomes more prominent.
In other words, the other person can have the user purchase the product or service selected by the other person. Therefore, as a further development of the business model described above, there is also an effect that the possibility of having people around the world purchase their own goods or services dramatically increases as compared with the past.

The series of processes described above can be executed by hardware or can be executed by software.
In other words, the functional configuration of FIG. 3 is merely an example, and is not particularly limited. That is, it is sufficient that the user terminal 1 has a function capable of executing the above-described series of processing as a whole, and what functional block is used to realize this function is not particularly limited to the example of FIG.
In addition, one functional block may be constituted by hardware alone, software alone, or a combination thereof.

When a series of processing is executed by software, a program constituting the software is installed on a computer or the like from a network or a recording medium.
