Touch based association of multiple computing devices
First Claim
1. A server device, comprising:
- a communication circuit configured to communicate with a first terminal device having a first touch panel associated with a first user, said communication circuit further configured to communicate with a second terminal device having a second touch panel associated with a second user different from the first user; and
a hardware processor configured to;
receive a first operation information via the communication circuit corresponding to a first swipe operation performed on the first touch panel;
receive second operation information via the communication circuit corresponding to a second swipe operation performed on the second touch panel;
determine whether an interval of time that is identified based on the received first operation information and the received second operation information falls within a prescribed range, andgenerate a prescribed relationship information on the basis of the result of the determination,wherein the prescribed relationship information comprises information that indicates a relationship between the first terminal device and the second terminal device, or between the first user operating the first terminal device and the second user operating the second terminal device; and
wherein the first operation information comprises information relating to a first speed at which the first swipe operation was performed, the second operation information comprises information relating to a second speed at which the second swipe operation was performed, and the controller compares the first speed with the second speed and generates the prescribed relationship information on the basis of the result of the comparison.

Abstract
To provide a server device with which the burden of processing can be reduced during generation of relationship information among multiple terminal devices. The server device can include a communication unit for communicating with a first terminal device having a first touch panel, and with a second terminal device having a second touch panel; and a controller for determining whether an interval of time that is identified on the basis of first operation information received from the first terminal device via the communication unit and corresponding to a first swipe operation performed on the first touch panel, and second operation information received from the second terminal device via the communication unit and corresponding to a second swipe operation performed on the second touch panel, falls within a prescribed range, and for generating prescribed relationship information on the basis of the result of the determination.

8. A terminal device, comprising:
-
a first touch panel associated with a first user; a communication circuit configured to communicate with another terminal device having a second touch panel associated with a second user different from the first user; and a hardware processor configured to; determine whether an interval of time that is identified based on first operation information corresponding to a first swipe operation performed on the first touch panel, and second operation information received from the other terminal device via the communication circuit and corresponding to a second swipe operation performed on the second touch panel, falls within a prescribed range, and generate a prescribed relationship information on based on the determination, wherein the prescribed relationship information comprises information that indicates a relationship between the first terminal device and the second terminal device, or between the first user operating the first terminal device and the second user operating the second terminal device; and wherein the first operation information comprises information relating to a first speed at which the first swipe operation was performed, the second operation information comprises information relating to a second speed at which the second swipe operation was performed, and the controller compares the first speed with the second speed and generates the prescribed relationship information on the basis of the result of the comparison.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable medium in which a computer is stored, the computer program causing a computer to:
-
communicate with a first terminal device having a first touch panel associated with a first user, and with a second terminal device having a second touch panel associated with a second user different from the first user; and determine whether an interval of time that is identified based on a first operation information received from the first terminal device via a communication circuit and corresponding to a first swipe operation performed on the first touch panel, and second operation information received from the second terminal device via the communication circuit and corresponding to a second swipe operation performed on the second touch panel, falls within a prescribed range, and generate prescribed relationship information on the basis of the result of the determination, wherein the prescribed relationship information comprises information that indicates a relationship between the first terminal device and the second terminal device, or between the first user operating the first terminal device and the second user operating the second terminal device; and wherein the first operation information comprises information relating to a first speed at which the first swipe operation was performed, the second operation information comprises information relating to a second speed at which the second swipe operation was performed, and the controller compares the first speed with the second speed and generates the prescribed relationship information on the basis of the result of the comparison.

10. A method for generating prescribed relationship information in a server device that is connected, via a communication circuit, to a first terminal device having a first touch panel associate with a first user, and to a second terminal device having a second touch panel associated with a second user different from the first user, wherein the method comprises:
-
determining, at the server device, whether an interval of time that is identified on the basis of first operation information received from the first terminal device via the communication circuit and corresponding to a first swipe operation performed on the first touch panel, and second operation information received from the second terminal device via the communication circuit and corresponding to a second swipe operation performed on the second touch panel, falls within a prescribed range; and generating the prescribed relationship information on the basis of the result of the determination, wherein the prescribed relationship information comprises information that indicates a relationship between the first terminal device and the second terminal device, or between the first user operating the first terminal device and the second user operating the second terminal device; and wherein the first operation information comprises information relating to a first speed at which the first swipe operation was performed, the second operation information comprises information relating to a second speed at which the second swipe operation was performed, and the controller compares the first speed with the second speed and generates the prescribed relationship information on the basis of the result of the comparison.
