Detailed Description
Various preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following description with reference to the accompanying drawings is provided to assist in understanding the exemplary embodiments of the invention as defined by the claims and their equivalents. It includes various specific details to assist understanding, but they are to be construed as merely illustrative. Accordingly, those skilled in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications can be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention. Also, in order to make the description clearer and simpler, a detailed description of functions and configurations well known in the art will be omitted.
First, an information processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention is described with reference to fig. 1. Fig. 1 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration of an information processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the information processing apparatus 100 includes: a display unit 101, a first sensing unit 102 and a processing unit 103.
The display unit 101 is located on the front surface (defined as a first surface) of the information processing apparatus 100 for displaying information to a user. The first sensing unit 102 is located at the back side (defined as a second surface) of the information processing apparatus 100, and detects an input of a user at the back side of the information processing apparatus. As can be seen, the display unit 101 and the first sensing unit 102 are located on two opposite sides in the information processing apparatus 100.
The processing unit 103 is located in the information processing apparatus 100, and is configured to perform a predetermined operation corresponding to a predetermined input by the user when the predetermined input is detected by the first sensing unit 102.
Here, it is to be noted that, in order to realize the input (e.g., a specific gesture) by the user at the back of the information processing apparatus 100, the user must be able to see the hand at the back thereof at the front of the information processing apparatus 100. For example, fig. 2 and 3 are schematic external views of the information processing apparatus 100. In fig. 2 and 3, an object located on the back side thereof can be seen on the front side of the information processing apparatus 100. Therefore, the display unit 101 and a portion of the information processing apparatus 100 placed overlapping with the display unit 101 are designed to each satisfy a predetermined light transmittance. For example, the display unit 101 and a portion of the information processing apparatus 100 placed to overlap with the display unit 101 may be completely transparent or translucent as long as an object located therebehind can be seen therethrough.
In the information processing apparatus 100, the first sensing unit 102 may be disposed to completely/partially overlap with the display unit 101, while neither the processing unit 103 nor other components (not mentioned in this specification since they are not closely related to the present invention) are disposed to overlap with the foregoing two.
Fig. 4 shows a first example of a side view of the information processing apparatus 100 in this case and a corresponding front view, in which the shaded portion represents an opaque portion. As shown in fig. 4, the display unit 101 and the first sensing unit 102 are disposed to overlap without including other components therebetween. The display unit 101 is located at an upper portion of the information processing apparatus 100, and the processing unit 103 and other components are located at a lower portion of the information processing apparatus 100. It can be seen that the information processing apparatus shown in fig. 4 corresponds to the appearance shown in fig. 2 mentioned earlier.
Fig. 5 shows a side view of the information processing apparatus 100 in this case and a second example of a corresponding front view, in which the shaded portion represents an opaque portion. As shown in fig. 5, the display unit 101 and the first sensing unit 102 are disposed to overlap without including other components therebetween. The display unit 101 is located in the middle of the information processing apparatus 100, and the processing unit 103 and other components are located in the upper and lower portions of the information processing apparatus 100, respectively. It can be seen that the information processing apparatus shown in fig. 5 corresponds to the appearance shown in fig. 3 mentioned earlier. Of course, this is merely an example, and any other configuration is possible.
In this case, the portion of the information processing apparatus 100 placed to overlap with the display unit 101 includes a portion of the first sensing unit corresponding to the display unit.
Further alternatively, the first sensing unit 102 may be disposed to completely/partially overlap with the display unit 101 with a part or all of the processing unit 103 and other components therebetween. Fig. 6 shows a side view of the information processing apparatus 100 in this case and a corresponding front view, in which the shaded portion indicates an opaque portion. As shown in fig. 6, the display unit 101 and the first sensing unit 102 are disposed to overlap with a portion of the processing unit 103 and other components included therebetween, the display unit 101, the first sensing unit 102, and a portion of the processing unit 103 and other components are located at an upper portion of the information processing apparatus 100, and another portion of the processing unit 103 and other components are located at a lower portion of the information processing apparatus. In this case, the portion of the information processing apparatus placed to overlap with the display unit includes, in addition to the portion of the first sensing unit corresponding to the display unit mentioned in the former case: and the part between the display unit and the first sensing unit, which corresponds to the display unit, is arranged.
Display examples of the display unit in the information processing apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention in the case of performing view conversion are described below with reference to fig. 7 to 11.
Fig. 7 shows a case where the display unit 101 displays a plurality of overlapped pages. As shown in fig. 7, a plurality of overlapped pages on which contents A, B, C, D, E are displayed, respectively, are displayed in a direction perpendicular to the display unit 101. The state shown in fig. 7 is taken as an initial state.
In an initial state, when the first sensing unit 102 detects a first input of a user, for example, a one-click operation or a touch operation of the user for a predetermined time, the processing unit 103 performs a transition from a first view mode to a second view mode in which the display unit is capable of displaying a positional relationship between the plurality of pages.
Fig. 8 shows a first display example of the display unit after view conversion. In a first display example, the first view mode is a plane overlay display mode, and the second view mode is a plane side-by-side display mode. In the plane overlay display mode, at least two of the plurality of pages have an overlapping portion (as shown in fig. 7), and in the plane side-by-side display mode, any two of the plurality of pages have no overlapping portion (as shown in fig. 8), and the pages are sequentially arranged in a plane form in order from left to right and from top to bottom.
In the state shown in fig. 8, the user can select between different pages by moving the finger in the up, down, left, and right directions, as shown in fig. 9. Fig. 9 shows an example where the user moves a finger in different directions. The page where the user's finger is currently located is displayed in a bold frame. For example, a page on which the current finger is located is shown in fig. 9 as a page displaying content D (hereinafter, this is referred to as page D, and similarly, pages displaying content A, B, C, E are referred to as pages A, B, C, E, respectively).
Fig. 10 shows a second display example of the display unit after view conversion. In a second display example, the first view mode is a plan view mode, and the second view mode is a stereoscopic view mode. And, in the plan view mode, the page is displayed as a rectangle (as shown in fig. 7) in which the display contents are contained, and in the stereoscopic view mode, the page is displayed in a perspective view in which the user can see the thickness of the page and can see the face containing the display contents (as shown in fig. 10).
In the state shown in fig. 10, the user can select between different pages by moving the finger in the left-right direction, as shown in fig. 11. Fig. 11 shows an example in which the user moves a finger in the left-right direction. The page where the user's finger is currently located is displayed in a bold frame. For example, fig. 11 shows that the page on which the current finger is located is page C.
After the display unit 101 is converted into the second view mode as described above, when the first sensing unit 102 detects the second input of the user, the processing unit 103 selects any one of the plurality of pages according to the selection of the user. That is, the second input by the user is a selected operation of one of the plurality of pages. The second input may be the same as the first input or may be different from the first input. For example, the second input may be a one-click operation or an operation of touching and pressing for a predetermined time by the user.
In the above, the case where the processing unit 103 performs the view conversion when the first sensing unit 102 detects the first input of the user in the initial state is described. In this case, since the view conversion is performed, the user is enabled to select any one among a plurality of pages which do not overlap with each other. Of course, as another embodiment, the view conversion may not be performed.
Next, a display example of the display unit in the information processing apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention without view conversion is described with reference to fig. 12 and 13.
In the case where a plurality of overlapped pages are displayed on the display unit 101, when the first sensing unit 102 detects the second input of the user, the processing unit 103 performs an operation of selecting a specific one of the plurality of overlapped displayed pages according to the selection of the user.
The processing unit 103 selects a specific one of the pages as follows: the first sensing unit 102 first detects a position corresponding to the second input of the user, if there is only one page corresponding to the position, the processing unit 103 performs an operation of selecting the one page corresponding to the position, and if there are a plurality of pages corresponding to the position, the processing unit 103 performs an operation of selecting a top page or a bottom page of the plurality of pages corresponding to the position.
For example, fig. 12 shows an example of selecting one page in a case where the display unit displays a plurality of overlapping pages. In fig. 12, since the page corresponding to the finger position of the user includes page a and page C, the processing unit 103 selects the top one of the two pages. In the case of fig. 12, the top of the two pages is page a. Of course, which of the two pages is selected is not limited thereto. The processing unit 103 may also select the bottom of the two pages, i.e. page C.
As another example, fig. 13 shows still another example of selecting one page in a case where the display unit displays a plurality of overlapping pages. In fig. 13, since there is only one page corresponding to the finger position of the user, that is: page a, and thus the processing unit 103 selects the page.
In the above, when a plurality of overlapped pages are displayed on the display unit, the description has been made separately for the case of performing view conversion and the case of not performing view conversion. In both cases, the processing unit 103 may eventually select a page.
After the processing unit 103 selects one page, when the first sensing unit 102 detects a third input of the user, the processing unit 103 transposes the selected page to a specific position. Several embodiments for swapping a selected page to a specific position are described below with reference to fig. 14 to 19.
As an embodiment, fig. 14 shows a display example of swapping a page after the selected page shown in fig. 9. In this case, the third input may be a sliding operation moving from the page D to the page E on the first sensing unit 102.
Of course, it should be noted that the third input is not limited to the sliding operation described above. Alternatively, the third input may be an operation of the user's finger approaching or departing from the first sensing unit 102. For example, when the user's fingers are close, the selected page is swapped forward (i.e., D → C → B → A), and when the user's fingers are far away, the selected page is swapped backward (i.e., D → E). Further, the pages may be exchanged step by step according to a change in the distance between the finger and the first sensing unit 102. For example, as the distance decreases, the selected page D is gradually transposed to page C, page B, and page a. Alternatively, as the distance increases, the selected page D is swapped to page E. Of course, this is merely an example, and vice versa. Moreover, the skilled person can also exchange pages in any other possible way.
Fig. 15 shows a display example after the swap page operation shown in fig. 14. As shown in fig. 15, page D has been transposed with page E.
As another embodiment, fig. 16 shows a display example of swapping a page after the selected page shown in fig. 11. In this case, the third input may be a sliding operation in which the user's finger moves from the page C to the page a in the left-right direction on the first sensing unit 102.
Similarly, the third input here is also not limited to the aforementioned slide operation. Alternatively, the third input may be an operation of the user's finger approaching or departing from the first sensing unit 102. For example, when the user's fingers are close, the selected page is transposed to the left (i.e., C → B → A), and when the user's fingers are far away, the selected page is transposed to the right (i.e., C → D → E). Further, similarly to the above, the pages may be exchanged step by step according to a change in the distance between the finger and the first sensing unit 102. For example, as the distance decreases, the selected page C is gradually transposed to page B and page a. Alternatively, the selected page C is gradually transposed to the pages D and E as the distance increases. Of course, this is merely an example, and vice versa. Moreover, the skilled person can also exchange pages in any other possible way.
Fig. 17 shows a display example after the swap page operation shown in fig. 16. As shown in fig. 17, page C has been transposed with page a.
As still another embodiment, fig. 18 illustrates an operation of swapping a page after the selected page illustrated in fig. 12. In this case, the third input may be an operation of the user's finger away from the first sensing unit 102. In fig. 18, an arrow to the right indicates an operation of moving away the user's finger, and an arrow to the upper indicates a downward movement of the page a. For example, when the first sensing unit 102 detects the third input of the user, the processing unit 103 may set the selected page to the bottom by default, or may move the page down step by step according to a change in the distance of the finger from the first sensing unit 102. Of course, as mentioned above, this exchange is merely an example, and those skilled in the art may exchange pages in any other possible way.
Fig. 19 shows a display example after the swap page operation shown in fig. 18. As shown in fig. 19, page a is set to the bottom.
Further, it should be noted that there are three ways of detecting the distance between the user's finger and the back surface (i.e., the second surface) of the information processing apparatus 100 as follows.
As a first implementation, the first sensing unit 102 may adopt an enhanced capacitive screen, which can detect not only the touch of the user's finger, but also the approach of the user's finger and the distance therebetween. Since the enhanced capacitive screen is the prior art, the details thereof are not described in detail.
As a second embodiment, the information processing apparatus 100 may further include a second sensing unit 104 (i.e., one camera) for detecting a change in distance of the hand from the second surface. Fig. 20 shows a side view of the information processing apparatus 100 in this case. As shown in fig. 20, the second sensing unit 104 is located in the information processing apparatus 100 with its photographing lens parallel to the second surface. Since the first sensing unit 102 satisfies the predetermined light transmittance, the second sensing unit 104 can take a picture of the approach/separation of the finger to/from the first sensing unit 102 at a front view angle. The second sensing unit 104 determines a distance change according to a size change of a finger in the photographed picture. Specifically, when the finger becomes small, the distance becomes large, and when the finger becomes large, the distance becomes small. Then, the processing unit 103 exchanges the page according to the distance change detected by the second sensing unit 104.
As a third embodiment, the information processing apparatus 100 also includes a second sensing unit 104 (i.e., one camera) for detecting a change in the distance of the hand from the second surface. Fig. 21 shows a side view of the information processing apparatus 100 in this case. Unlike the aforementioned second embodiment, the photographing lens of the second sensing unit 104 is perpendicular to the second surface, and can photograph a picture of the approach/separation of the finger to/from the first sensing unit 102 at a side view angle, so that it can be intuitively determined whether the distance between the finger and the second surface is increased or decreased according to the picture. Then, the processing unit 103 exchanges the page according to the distance change detected by the second sensing unit 104.
In the above, the embodiment has been described in which, after the processing unit selects one page, when the sensing unit detects the third input of the user, the processing unit transposes the selected page to a specific position.
In addition, it should be noted that, as described above, when a plurality of overlapped pages are displayed on the display unit, after the selected page is converted by the view and the page is exchanged, when the sensing unit detects the fourth input, the processing unit converts the current view into the initial view for the user to view.
Further, it should be noted that, in the above description, the case where the first sensing unit and/or the second sensing unit is included only on the back surface (second surface) of the information processing apparatus 100 is described. However, it is understood that the third sensing unit may be included on the front surface (first surface) of the information processing apparatus 100. The operations of view conversion, page selection, page exchange and the like are completed through the interaction of the sensing units on the front side and the back side. For example, when the first sensing unit located at the back side detects the first input, the processing unit performs view conversion. After the view conversion, when the third sensing unit positioned on the front side detects the second input, the processing unit selects the page. Then, when the first sensing unit and the second sensing unit on the back side detect the third input, the processing unit performs position exchange on the selected page. Of course, the above approach is merely an example, and any other approach is possible.
Hereinafter, an information processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 22. Fig. 22 is a flowchart showing a procedure of an information processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The information processing method is applied to the information processing apparatus 100 described hereinabove. As shown in fig. 22, the method includes the steps of:
first, in step S2201, a plurality of overlapped pages are displayed.
Then, in step S2202, it is determined whether or not an input by a user on a first surface and/or a second surface, which are opposite to each other, is detected.
If the determination result in step S2202 indicates that the predetermined input is detected, the processing proceeds to step S2203. In step S2203, a predetermined operation corresponding to the predetermined input is performed.
When a predetermined input by a user is detected, the step of performing a predetermined operation corresponding to the predetermined input includes: when a first input by a user is detected, a transition is performed from a first view mode to a second view mode in which the display unit is capable of displaying a positional relationship between a plurality of pages.
For example, the first view mode is a plane overlap display mode, the second view mode is a plane side-by-side display mode, and in the plane overlap display mode, at least two of the plurality of pages have an overlapping portion, and in the plane side-by-side display mode, any two of the plurality of pages have no overlapping portion.
Further alternatively, the first view mode is a plane view mode, the second view mode is a stereoscopic view mode, and in the plane view mode, a page is displayed as a rectangle in which display contents are contained, and in the stereoscopic view mode, a page is displayed in a perspective view in which a user can see a page thickness and a face containing the display contents.
After the transition to the second view mode, the method further comprises the steps of: when the second input of the user is detected, any one of the plurality of pages is selected according to the selection of the user.
The case where the view conversion is performed is described above. Alternatively, no view conversion may be performed. In this case, when a predetermined input by the user is detected, the step of performing a predetermined operation corresponding to the predetermined input includes: when the second input of the user is detected, the operation of selecting a specific page in the plurality of overlapped displayed pages is executed.
Wherein, when the second input of the user is detected, the step of performing the operation of selecting a specific one of the plurality of overlapped displayed pages includes: detecting a position corresponding to a second input of the user; if only one page corresponding to the position exists at the position, the operation of selecting the page corresponding to the position is executed; and if a plurality of pages corresponding to the position exist at the position, selecting a top page or a bottom page in the plurality of pages corresponding to the position is executed.
After selecting a page, the method further comprises the steps of: when the third input of the user is detected, the selected page is transposed to a specific position.
