Classification: CPC G  H  A | IPC G  H

Claim 0:
1. An information management system comprising one or more measuring devices and one or more information terminals, wherein
the measuring device includes:
a measuring device output device including an oscillation device capable of generating at least ultrasonic waves in a unique pattern; and
a measuring device processor configured to:
use the ultrasonic waves generated by the oscillation device to transmit measuring device information including identification information identifying the measuring device, and
cause the measuring device output device to generate a human-perceivable output in a pattern identical to the unique pattern,

the information terminal comprises:
an input device including a microphone capable of detecting the ultrasonic waves, an information terminal output device including at least a display, a storage, and an information terminal processor,
the information termal processor configured to:
acquire, via the microphone, the identification information from the ultrasonic waves in the unique pattern output from the measuring device,
cause the display of the information terminal to display the measuring device having transmitted the identification information acquired,
cause the information terminal output device to generate a human-perceivable output in a pattern identical to the pattern of the output from the measuring device displayed on the display of the information terminal,
receive, via the input device, an input indicating that the measuring device displayed on the display of the information terminal is to be registered on the information terminal, use, as the input indicating the registration of the measuring device on the information terminal, reception, via the input device, of an input indicating that an occurrence pattern of the output from the measuring device displayed on the display of the information terminal is identical to an occurrence pattern of the output from the information terminal, and
cause the storage to store the identification information regarding the measuring device for which the input indicating registration of the measuring device on the information terminal has been provided.
