20220236851 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS - An apparatus includes an operation unit configured to detect a position of an object being present perpendicular to a screen and receive, in a case where the position of the object being present perpendicular to the screen satisfies a first condition, a non-contact input based on the position of the object, wherein, in a case where the position of the object being present perpendicular to the screen satisfies a second condition of being present closer to the screen than a position specified in the first condition, the operation unit issues a warning without prohibiting an input based on the position of the object. | 2022-07-28 |
20220236852 | TOUCH PANEL INFORMATION TERMINAL APPARATUS AND INFORMATION INPUT PROCESSING METHOD - A user interface unit having first and second input devices arranged on both surfaces of a display device is provided. The hardware processor of a terminal apparatus body determines whether a touch operation has been performed on only one of the first and second input devices or has been simultaneously performed on both the first and second input devices on the basis of respective detection signals output from the first and second input devices, and selectively performs the first processing and the second processing according to a determination result. | 2022-07-28 |
20220236853 | SENSOR MODULE AND METHOD FOR DETECTING AND CHARACTERIZING SIDE INPUTS AT DEVICES - One variation of a system includes: a frame; a sensor module; and a controller. The frame includes: a base structure that locates a display defining a front face of a device; and a lateral frame structure extending along and adjacent an edge of the display and supported on a side of the base structure. The base structure and the lateral frame structure cooperate to define a channel arranged behind the display and extending longitudinally between the lateral frame structure and the side of the base structure. The sensor module is arranged in the channel and includes: a substrate; and a linear array of sensors arranged on the substrate and outputting sense signals representing local deflections of the lateral frame structure. The controller detects locations and force magnitudes of side inputs on the device, proximal the edge of the display, based on sense signals output by the linear array of sensors. | 2022-07-28 |
20220236854 | PERSONAL DIGITAL ASSISTANT - A personal digital assistant includes a display control unit that causes an object as a target of the touch operation to be displayed in the image display unit, an image input unit that acquires a video of an operation instruction object that performs the touch operation on the touch screen, and a shaking detection unit that analyzes the video of the operation instruction object, which is acquired by the image input unit, and calculates a relative shaking amount of the operation instruction object to a position of the personal digital assistant as a reference. The display control unit causes the object to be displayed in the image display unit to be displayed, based on the relative shaking amount of the operation instruction object, which is calculated by the shaking detection unit, such that the object is shifted in accordance with the relative shaking amount. | 2022-07-28 |
