  FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a configuration example of the display system of FIG. 1, and here shows a configuration example of a portion excluding the base 20 and the touch panel 12 in FIG. 1. Note that FIG. 2 shows a screen having an aspect ratio different from that of FIG. 1 due to space limitations.

  In the display system illustrated in FIG. 2, the control device described above includes a memory 13, an LCD controller 14, a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 15, a hard disk drive (HDD) 16, an external device connection interface (I / F) 17, and an antenna group. 30, the selector 31 and the communication unit 32 will be described. The touch panel 12 is connected to the CPU 15 so that the CPU 15 can obtain an operation signal (such as a signal indicating coordinates).

  The CPU 15 performs overall control of the display device 10. The memory 13 and the HDD 16 store a program including an operation system (OS) and data that can be read by the program. The memory 13 may be composed of, for example, a ROM (Read Only Memory) storing the OS and a RAM (Random Access Memory) as a program execution area (work area). The HDD 16 stores other programs and data. It is good to leave.

  In addition, by connecting the scanner device 41 and the printer 42 to the external device connection I / F 17, it is possible to issue an image reading command from the CPU 15 or a printing command for printing an image in the HDD 16 or the like as a printing target.

By providing such a network communication means, it is possible to connect to a network such as a WEB server, a file server, or a client PC (not shown).

  Hereinafter, an LCD panel will be described as the display unit 11. However, as the display means 11, in addition to the LCD, a plasma display panel, a field emission display, a surface-conduction electron-emitter display, an organic EL display Display means such as (Organic Electroluminescence Display) can be applied. The LCD panel 11 is controlled by the LCD controller 14 and displays an image. The LCD controller 14 is controlled by the CPU 15 to control the display on the LCD panel 11.

  Thus, the above-described display control means can be exemplified mainly by the CPU 15 and the LCD controller 14. For example, the display object (display image) stored in the HDD 16 or the like may be read by the CPU 15.

  The antenna group 30, the selector 31, and the communication unit 32 are an example of operation means incorporated so that a display position designation operation using a non-contact card is possible as one of the main features of the present invention. In this display system, as exemplified by the touch panel 12, another operation device may be provided, and an operation using the operation device may be possible. For example, an operation device such as a keyboard and a mouse may be provided. However, an operation that requires a display object position determination process, which will be described later, can be performed by this operation means using a non-contact card, thereby taking advantage of the present invention that user operability is good. .

  The antenna group 30 consists of nine antennas 30a, 30b, 30c,... No. 1 to 9, and is an example of a plurality of communication means that read the identification information recorded on the non-contact card in a non-contact manner. Each communication means is arranged at least for reading identification information, and preferably arranged for reading and writing other information (referred to as other information) different from the identification information by performing wireless communication with the contactless card. Yes. In the following, reference numeral 30n is used when referring to an unspecified antenna among these antennas 30a,. Each antenna 30n corresponds to an example of one communication means. The nine antennas 30n are arranged, for example, in a matrix at a predetermined position behind (back) the display screen of the display device 10 (in this example, the display screen of the LCD panel 11).

  Further, the nine antennas 30n are arranged at positions where two or more antennas 30n do not detect (detect) at the same time when the non-contact card is brought close to any of the legal positions. In addition, it is preferable to arrange the antennas 30n uniformly so that the installation density is the same in each region of the screen. Of course, the number of antennas 30n included in the antenna group 30 is not limited to nine, and the arrangement thereof is not limited to a matrix.

  Here, the back of the display screen includes the back of the transparent panel provided in the forefront and the inside of the transparent panel. Furthermore, each antenna 30n is not limited to the back of the display screen, but may be provided at a predetermined position of the display device 10, and may be provided on the front side (front side) of the display screen. For example, glass may be provided on the front side of the display surface, and the antenna 30n may be formed using a transparent conductive member on the glass.

  Furthermore, the above-described control device is provided with communication control means for controlling the plurality of antennas 30n. This communication control means reads the identification information from the non-contact card when the non-contact card comes close to any of the plurality of antennas 30n, and if necessary, communicates with the non-contact card. The antenna 30n to which the non-contact card is placed is controlled so as to communicate other information. The selector 31, the communication unit 32, and the CPU 15 are examples of this communication control unit. The selector 31 switches input / output from the plurality of antennas 30 n in a time division manner, and connects the plurality of antennas 30 n to one communication unit 32. The communication unit 32 communicates with the contactless card via the antenna 30n. Further, the communication unit 32 is connected to the CPU 15 and can pass identification information and other information to the CPU 15 and receive other information via the CPU 15.

  Here, it is assumed that when the contactless card is close to the antenna 30n, the identification information is returned according to the radio wave from the antenna 30n. However, the identification information is spontaneously transmitted from the antenna on the card side. A non-contact card may be configured, and the antenna 30n may correspond to it.

  Furthermore, the above-mentioned control apparatus is provided with the following display coordinate instruction | indication means as one of the main characteristics of this invention. The display coordinate instruction means determines the display coordinates of the display object in accordance with the arrangement position of the one or more communication means from which the identification information has been read, and issues an instruction to display the display object at the determined display coordinates. , Output to the display control means described above. For example, a display coordinate instruction program for causing the CPU 15 to function as the display coordinate instruction means can be implemented by incorporating it as a part of the above program.

  In the configuration example of FIG. 2, the CPU 15 determines the display coordinates of the display object according to the arrangement position of the one or more antennas 30n from which the identification information is read, and displays the display object at the determined display coordinates. An instruction to perform is output to the LCD controller 14. The display coordinates of the display object indicate coordinates indicating the display position of the display object. As a result, the display object is displayed on the LCD panel 11 at a position based on the instruction. Examples of display objects include icons and display windows (including application execution screens). The display object may be read from the HDD 16 as described above, and an example of reading will be described later.

  As an example of the determined display position, FIG. 2 shows display positions 50a, 50b, 50c,... On the LCD panel 11 that are made to coincide with the positions of the antennas 30a, 30b, 30c,. For example, when the identification information is read only with a certain antenna 30n, the display object is displayed at the display position 50n corresponding to the position of the antenna 30n. Here, the display position 50n indicates an unspecified display position among these display positions 50a,. An example when the identification information is read by a plurality of antennas 30n will be described later.

  Each display position is defined by, for example, one display coordinate at the upper left of the display object, and the size need not be considered at all. More specifically, the display position 50a is set as coordinates (x1, y1) included in the position of the antenna 30a (the installation coordinates of the antenna 30a), and the display position 50b is set as coordinates (x2, y2) included in the position of the antenna 30b. It is better to define such as. In addition, each display position may be defined as an area with two display coordinates on the upper left and lower right of the display object, for example. For example, no. As illustrated by the display position 50f with respect to the antenna 30f, the drawing start coordinates (x6a, y6a) and the drawing end coordinates (x6b, y6b) may be defined. In each example to be described later, an example in which two coordinates are defined will be described.

  As described above, according to the display system of the present invention, it is possible to obtain (I) identification information by a single operation of holding (contacting) a non-contact card to a position desired by the user on the display screen. It is possible to determine whether the user who is an operator is a regular user, and (II) display objects such as icons such as file icons and display windows such as application execution screens can be displayed. The display position of the object can also be specified. Therefore, according to the display system of the present invention, less user work is required, and as a result, user operability can be improved.

  For (I) above, the identification information cannot be obtained unless it is a legitimate contactless card. Therefore, the subsequent processing need not be executed. Don't do it. Further, as will be described below, by performing formal authentication using identification information, authentication can be performed simultaneously with the above (II) and (III) by a single operation.

  In order to execute authentication, the above-described control device includes authentication means for authenticating the read identification information when the identification information is read by any of the plurality of communication means. Authentication data (referred to as authentication information) may be stored in, for example, the memory 13 or the HDD 16 and compared with the identification information read by the CPU 15. Then, the display coordinate instruction means outputs an instruction to the display control means only when the authentication means succeeds. Of course, it is preferable that the display coordinate determination process itself is not executed when authentication fails. For example, when identification information is input via any of the plurality of antennas 30n, the communication unit 32 passes the identification information to the CPU 15 to determine whether or not the CPU 15 matches the specific authentication information. Only when this is done, a display instruction for a display object with a display position designated may be output to the LCD controller 14. In addition, it may be controlled so that communication of other information with the contactless card 60 is permitted only when they match. On the other hand, if the authentication fails, the CPU 15 may ignore the operation that is approached, or may display on the LCD panel 11 that the authentication fails and the operation cannot be performed.

  In addition, this authentication unit executes the authentication process using a common authentication method regardless of the antenna 30n that has read the identification information. That is, the authentication process in the authentication means is executed by means common to the communication means (here, the antenna 30n).

  Next, the non-contact card used for operation in the present invention will be described. FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a configuration example of a contactless card that can be operated with respect to the operating means in FIG. The contactless card 60 is a contactless electronic card, and can be exemplified by an IC card.

  A contactless card 60 illustrated in FIG. 3 includes an antenna 61, a CPU 62, and a memory 63. The card side antenna 61 communicates with any one of the antennas of the antenna group 30 using electromagnetic waves. The card-side CPU 62 and the card-side memory 63 operate using the electromagnetic waves received by the card-side antenna 61 as supply power, and transmit the information stored in the card-side memory 63 to any antenna of the antenna group 30. As one piece of this information, identification information 63 a is stored in the card side memory 63. The identification information 63a is ID information given one-on-one to a user who possesses the contactless card 60. Alternatively, processing for storing information from the antenna group 30 in the card-side memory 63 is also possible.

  In addition, the card side memory 63 shows an example in which information 63b to 63i is stored as information other than the identification information 63a. Any one or a plurality of these pieces of information 63b to 63i are read from the contactless card 60 as the other information described above by the communication control means.

  In addition, it is preferable that a plurality of applications are incorporated in the HDD 16 (or the memory 13) so that the CPU 15 can execute the applications. The information 63b to 63i is information acquired as other information and stored for use by any of the plurality of applications. That is, the communication control means controls to communicate information necessary for each application as other information.

  It is assumed that a presentation (presentation) application, a filer, a WEB browser, a mailer, a printer driver, and a scanner driver are incorporated in this display system (information processing apparatus) as an application group. Information necessary for each application at this time includes a presentation file (or nothing), a file storage location, a URL, an e-mail address, a printer name, a device name, a device name, and the like. For example, only one application may be installed.

  A URL (Uniform Resource Locators) 63b is input to a WEB browser and used to display a WEB page. Note that a URN (Uniform Resource Name) may be used instead of the URL 63b, and a so-called URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) may be used. The server name 63c is used when a file list input to the filer and stored in the server device is displayed. The types of files displayed in a list here may include not only document files and image files such as presentation files but also folder files. A filer is an application for hierarchically displaying the contents of a storage device and manipulating files and folders. The file name 63d indicates a name by which a file in the HDD 16 can be specified. The file name 63d is input to the filer to display a list of files in the folder containing the file, or is used to input the filer to open the file itself. The device name 63e is a name of a peripheral device such as the printer 42 or the scanner device 41, and indicates a printer name and a scanner name specified when operating the printer driver or the scanner driver. The e-mail address 63f is used when the e-mail address is specified in the mailer. The user ID / password 63g is information necessary for personal authentication when browsing a file in the server device or opening a WEB page. The file 63h is a data file such as a presentation file, and is copied to the display system and used when displaying the icon or the file itself. The contents of the setting information 63i will be described later.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of information stored in the HDD of FIG. FIG. 5 is a flowchart for explaining an example of processing executed in the display system of FIG. 2, and FIGS. 6 to 8 show examples of display screens displayed in the processing example of FIG. FIG.

  As illustrated in FIG. 4, the HDD 16 (or the memory 13) stores a user information table (user information table) 16a for user authentication and a window coordinate setting table 16b.

  The user information table 16a is a table that stores ID information used to authenticate whether or not the display system can be used, and this ID information corresponds to the authentication information in the above-described authentication means. A list of ID information for each user may be stored in the user information table 16a, such as ID information A for user A and ID information B for user B, for example. The target user for storing the ID information may be, for example, a member of a department that owns the display system.

  The window coordinate setting table 16b is a table showing the correspondence between the antenna 30n from which the identification information 63a is read and the display object coordinates 50n. For example, no. One antenna 30a is defined as (X1a, Y1a)-(X1b, Y1b) or the like. When the CPU 15 detects the contactless card with the antenna 30n and reads the identification information 63a, the CPU 15 determines the display coordinates of the display object with reference to the table 16b.

  With reference to FIG.5 and FIG.6, it demonstrates about the process performed with this display system, referring information like FIG. First, the communication unit 32 waits for reception of radio waves from the contactless card A (60a) by any one of the antennas 30n (step S1). As illustrated in the upper display screen 51 of FIG. 6, when radio waves are received from any of the antennas 30n (when YES in step S1), the communication unit 32 stores the identification information stored in the contactless card 60. 63a is read and passed to the CPU 15 (step S2).

  Subsequently, the CPU 15 refers to the window coordinate setting table 16b and determines (specifies) the display coordinates of the display object according to the arrangement position of the antenna 30n (in this example, the antenna 30a) that has read the identification information 63a. (Step S3). Subsequently, the CPU 15 determines whether or not any antenna 30n from the communication unit 32 has received a radio wave from the contactless card 60a (step S4). That is, it is determined whether or not the contactless card 60a is separated from the screen and the contactless card 60a is no longer detected. If NO in step S4, the process in step S3 is performed again to re-determine display coordinates.

  Here, the determination in step S4 may be performed with a time limit. That is, the display coordinate designating means provides the antenna 30n at which the identification information 63a was last read when the identification information 63a was read first or when the time elapsed since the previous time reached a predetermined time. The display coordinates of the display object (coordinates for specifying the display area) may be determined accordingly. Then, the process proceeds to the next step S5 at the timing when any of the antennas 30n no longer detects the contactless card 60a.

  After specifying the coordinates in this way, the CPU 15 refers to the user information table 16a and determines (collates) whether the identification information 63a matches any of the user information stored therein. Then, user authentication is performed (step S5). In step S5, if the identification information 63a stored in the contactless card 60a does not match any of the user information, the CPU 15 controls the LCD controller 14 to display an error as user authentication failure (step S6). ), Return to step S1, and wait for the next operation.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S5 that they match, the CPU 15 reads the image data of the display object from the HDD 16, and finally determines in step S3 according to the antenna 30n (in this example, the antenna 30a) that has detected the non-contact card 60a. Specific display coordinates are set, and the display object is output to the LCD controller 14 so that the display object is displayed in a display area predetermined by the display coordinates (in the example of FIG. 2, an area that coincides with the position of the antenna 30n). (Step S7). Here, the finally specified display coordinates indicate display coordinates according to the arrangement position of the antenna 30n (in this example, the antenna 30a) that has finally detected the non-contact card 60a. Subsequently, the LCD controller 14 controls the LCD panel 11 to display the display object at the display position (step S8).

  Taking the case where an icon of a new presentation file is previously defined as a display object as an example, in step S8, a new one is displayed at a position (display position 50a) corresponding to the antenna 30a on the display screen 51 as shown in the lower part of FIG. An icon 51a for opening the presentation file is displayed. Here, the CPU 15 reads out the presentation application and creates a new presentation file after at least YES in step S5. The type of file to be newly created may be set in the control device in advance.

  Thus, it is preferable that the above-described control device includes a file generation unit that generates a predetermined file when the identification information 63a is read by any of the plurality of antennas 30n. Here, one predetermined file may be generated during the determination time in step S4. Then, the display coordinate instruction means may output an instruction to display an icon of the predetermined file as a display object to the display control means.

  After step S8, the process returns to step S1 to wait for the next operation. Note that the process of step S5 (and step S6 in the case of NO) may be executed immediately after step S2, and may proceed to step S7 if YES in step S4.

  With reference to FIGS. 7 and 8, a case where a filer execution screen is predetermined as a display object will be described as an example. It is assumed that a filer is incorporated in the above-described control device so as to be executable, and a file to be displayed on the filer is also stored in the HDD 16 in a readable state.

  In this case, instead of simply reading the display object from the HDD 16 in step S7, the CPU 15 activates the filer to generate the execution screen (display window), and finally the image data of the execution screen and the display coordinates specified. The predetermined display area is output to the LCD controller 14 so that the execution screen is displayed in the display area. As will be described later with reference to FIG. 9 and the like, the image data of the execution screen may be generated by extracting a file with a filer.

  In step S8, the filer execution screen 51b is displayed at a position (display position 50a) corresponding to the antenna 30a of the display screen 51, as shown in the lower part of FIG. Here, it is preferable that the execution screen 51b displays the files and subfolders in the folder that the user who has been authenticated in step S5 uses regularly. Therefore, it is preferable to associate folder names with the user information table 16a. When one or a plurality of server devices (not shown), that is, file servers are connected to the display system, a server name (and folder name) may be associated instead of the folder name. .

  When another user brings the non-contact card B (60b) close to the antenna 30i in the display state of the lower display screen 51 in FIG. 7, the series of processes in FIG. 5 is executed again. As a result, the filer execution screen 51c is displayed at the position (display position 50i) corresponding to the antenna 30i of the display screen 51, with the display of the execution screen 51b as it is, as shown in the lower part of FIG.

  As illustrated in FIGS. 7 and 8, the display coordinate instruction means determines the display coordinates of the display window as the display coordinates of the display object, and displays an instruction to display the display window with the determined display coordinates. You may make it output to a control means. As illustrated in FIG. 8, even when a plurality of people use the same display system, a predetermined display object can be displayed at each favorite position.

  FIG. 9 is a flowchart for explaining another example of processing executed in the display system of FIG. 2, and FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of a display screen displayed in the processing example of FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example of a display screen when one icon is selected on the display screen of FIG. The display window is preferably displayed with its display area enlarged. Therefore, it is preferable that the display area can be changed according to the detection of the non-contact card. With reference to FIGS. 9 to 11, an operation from the state of the display screen 51 in the lower part of FIG. 7 will be described as an example.

  First, the same processing as in steps S1 and S2 is executed (steps S11 and S12), and the CPU 15 refers to the window coordinate setting table 16b and first reads the identification information 63a from the antenna 30n (in this example, the antenna 30i). ) To determine (specify) the first coordinates of the display object (step S13). Subsequently, the process of Step S14 (second coordinate specifying process) is executed.

  In the second coordinate specifying process of step S14, first, the CPU 15 determines whether the radio wave from the non-contact card 60b is received from any one of the antennas 30n from the communication unit 32 (that is, waits for the next reception). Then, when the same identification information 63a is read, the CPU 15 refers to the window coordinate setting table 16b and according to the arrangement position of the antenna 30n (in this example, the antenna 30d) that has read the identification information 63a. The second coordinate of the display object is determined (specified).

  Subsequent to step S14, the CPU 15 determines whether or not any antenna 30n from the communication unit 32 has received radio waves from the contactless card 60b (step S15). That is, it is determined whether or not the contactless card 60b is separated from the screen and the contactless card 60b is no longer detected. If NO in step S15, the process in step S14 is performed again to re-determine the second coordinate.

  Here, it is preferable to perform the determination in step S15 while limiting the time. In other words, the display coordinate instruction means provides the arrangement positions of the plurality of antennas 30n from which the identification information 63a has been read when the time elapsed since the first or previous reading of the identification information 63a has reached a predetermined time. The diagonal coordinates (diagonal coordinates for specifying the display area) of the display window may be determined according to the above. Then, at the timing when the non-contact card 60b is no longer detected by any of the antennas 30n, the process proceeds to the next step S16.

  As described above, when the display coordinate instruction means detects that the same identification information 63a is continuously read from a plurality of antennas 30n, the plurality of antennas 30n (in this example, the first one) The diagonal coordinates (diagonal coordinate positions) of the display window may be determined according to the arrangement positions of the antenna 30i and the last antenna 30d).

  After specifying the first and second coordinates in this way, user authentication is performed as in step S5 (step S16). If NO in step S16, error display is performed in the same manner as in step S6 (step S17), and the process returns to step S11 to wait for the next operation.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S16 that they match, the CPU 15 activates the filer to generate its execution screen (display window), and finally identifies the diagonal coordinates (this In the example, the display area determined by the first and last detected antennas 30i and 30d) is output to the LCD controller 14 so that the execution screen is displayed in the display area (step S18). Subsequently, the LCD controller 14 controls the LCD panel 11 and displays the execution screen 51d (however, the icons inside are not displayed at this time) in the display area (display position) (step S19). In this way, the display coordinate instruction means may output an instruction to display the display window with the determined diagonal coordinates to the display control means. By such an instruction, not only the display position of the display object but also the display size can be specified.

  Then, the file group displayed on the execution screen 51d by the filer is extracted (step S20), and the CPU 15 outputs to the LCD controller 14 so that the image data of the icon group corresponding to the extracted file group is stored in the execution screen 51d. (Step S21). In step S20, as described with reference to FIG. 7, a folder name, a server name, and the like are associated with each other in the user information table 16a, and the user authenticated as a result of authentication in step S16 is in a folder that is regularly used. Extract files and subfolders. As a result, the filer execution screen 51d is displayed in the diagonal area corresponding to the antenna 30d from the antenna 30i of the display screen 51 without changing the display of the execution screen 51b as shown in the lower part of FIG.

  In particular, when a display window is displayed as a display object, it cannot be said that the display with other objects may overlap in the specified display area. In that case, the display may be performed by overwriting another object, and the display area of the other object may be reduced as necessary.

  After step S21, the process returns to step S11 and waits for the next operation. Note that the process of step S16 (and step S17 in the case of NO) may be executed immediately after step S12, and may proceed to step S18 if YES in step S15.

  Regarding the determination of reception in step S14 described above, it is preferable to limit the time to wait for reception. After the elapse of time, assuming that the second display coordinates cannot be specified, the display area may be set using only the first display coordinates as it is in step S18, and the processes in and after step S19 may be executed. In addition, regarding the process of step S15, the first and second coordinates are specified during the card movement before the contactless card 60b leaves the screen, and the processes after step S18 are sequentially executed based on the specified diagonal coordinates. You may control as follows. Thereby, the user can determine the size while viewing the displacement of the size of the display object.

  In addition, after the processing in step S21, the user can select and operate the icon of a certain presentation file A displayed in the execution screen 51d by other operation means such as the touch panel 12. As shown in FIG. 11, the execution screen 51e of the presentation file A opened by such a selection operation is also preferably displayed in the same display area as the execution screen 51d.

  Here, regarding step S20, a file extraction process example in the filer other than the example in which the folder name and the server name are associated in the user information table 16a described above will be described. First, the user stores the file name 63d in the contactless card 60b in advance.

  When the control device reads the identification information 63a of any of the plurality of antennas 30n, the control device reads the file name 63d from a predetermined address of the memory 63 in the contactless card 60b, activates the filer, and starts the file. Filer activation means for passing the name 63d is provided. The filer activation means may be incorporated so as to be executable as a filer activation application, for example. Reading of the file name 63d can be realized by the CPU 15 controlling the one antenna 30n to which the non-contact card 60b is brought close via the communication unit 32 and the selector 31. That is, the reading of the file name 63d can be executed by the communication control means.

  The activated filer accesses the file indicated by the file name 63d in the HDD 16, opens the folder in which the file exists, and extracts the files and subfolders in the folder. In this way, for the execution screen of the filer indicating the extracted file group (the display screen of the folder indicating the storage location of the file name), the display coordinate instruction means determines the display coordinates of the execution screen and determines An instruction to display the execution screen in display coordinates may be output to the display control means. In this manner, filer display control can be performed based on the file name 63 d read from the contactless card 60. Note that a folder name may be stored in the contactless card 60b instead of the file name 63d. In that case, it is preferable to open the folder and extract files and subfolders in the folder.

  A file stored in the HDD 16 may be displayed on the filer. The case where one or a plurality of file servers storing a plurality of files is connected to the display system via a network will be described. To do. The filer incorporated in such a system configuration can execute the same process as the process for the HDD 16 on the file group stored in the file server. Note that the second information processing apparatus connected to the above-described control apparatus may be a server.

  When the above-described control device reads the identification information 63a of the plurality of antennas 30n, the control device reads the specific information for specifying the file server from the predetermined address of the memory 63 in the contactless card 60b, and starts the filer Filer activation means for passing the specific information. This filer activation means may also be incorporated so as to be executable as a filer activation application, for example. The specific information can be exemplified by the server name 63c, or may be the URI of a file server. The server name 63c can be read by the communication control means in the same manner as the file name 63d.

  The activated filer accesses the file server specified by the server name 63c, accesses files (including folder files) stored in the file server, and obtains a list from the file server to extract a file group. . In this way, for the filer execution screen (the file server folder display screen) indicating the extracted file group, the display coordinate instruction means determines the display coordinates of the execution screen, and uses the determined display coordinates. An instruction to display the execution screen may be output to the display control means. In this manner, filer display control can be performed based on the server name 63c read from the contactless card 60. If a lower layer file name or the like is stored in the server name 63c, an execution screen more suitable for the user can be displayed.

  Further, the search character string is stored in the memory 63 of the non-contact card 60, read out by the filer activation means, and passed to the filer as the search character string, so that the character string included in the file in the file server can be used as a file. And a file group as a search result can be displayed as an execution screen.

  Next, a case where user identification information (user ID and password 63g) for identifying a user is required when browsing a file in the server will be described. In this case, the filer activation means, for example, after passing the server name 63c to the filer, reads the user ID / password 63g from another predetermined address of the memory 63 in the contactless card 60 and passes it to the filer. The filer gives this user ID / password 63g to the browsing screen of the server device indicated by the server name 63c. The user ID / password 63g may be read while the non-contact card 60 is in close proximity. First, when the server device is accessed and cannot be displayed in a normal state, the user ID / password request screen is displayed. You may pass to a server apparatus at the time.

  FIG. 12 is a flowchart for explaining another example of processing executed in the display system of FIG. FIG. 13 is a diagram showing an example of the display screen displayed in the processing example of FIG. 12, and shows an example in which the execution screen of the presentation application is displayed in the display area after the diagonal coordinate position is determined. . When the display as shown in FIG. 11 is performed, it is conceivable that the user decides a file to be opened from the beginning. In such a scene, it is preferable to display the file up to the size of the screen by a single operation. Therefore, not only the display area can be changed according to the detection of the contactless card, but also the file is preferably read from the contactless card.

  With reference to FIGS. 12 and 13, an example is given of a scene in which a user having a contactless card C (60c) storing a file 63h operates from the state of a display screen with only a background. First, processing similar to that in steps S11 to S13 is executed (steps S31 to S33), and the first coordinates are specified. Assume that the coordinates corresponding to the antenna 30a are specified as the first coordinates.

  Next, the CPU 15 controls the communication unit 32 to transfer the file 63h stored in the contactless card 60c to the HDD 16 via the antenna 30n (in this example, the antenna 30a) with which the contactless card C (60c) is close. (Step S34).

  As described above, the control device described above may include a file copy unit that copies the predetermined file 63h recorded on the contactless card 60c when the identification information 63a is read by any of the plurality of antennas 30n. preferable. This means may be incorporated so as to be executable as a file copy program. The copy target may be specified as a file stored in a storage area indicated by a predetermined address of the contactless card 60c, or a predetermined file format may be selected among files stored in the contactless card 60c. It may be specified as a file with.

  Subsequent to step S34, the second coordinate specifying process similar to step S14 is executed (step S35), and it is determined whether or not the reception is the same as step S15 (step S36). In steps S35 and S36, the time may be limited in the same manner as steps S14 and S15, respectively. Assume that coordinates corresponding to the antenna 30f are specified as the second coordinates.

  After specifying the first and second coordinates in this way, the same processing as in steps S16 to S19 is executed (steps S37 to S40). However, in step S39, an application corresponding to the type of the file copied in step S34 is started instead of the filer. In step S40, the execution screen 51f (however, the contents are not displayed at this time) is displayed on the display screen 51.

  Subsequent to step S40, the CPU 15 reads the file copied in step S34 from the HDD 16, the application opens the file, and the image data of the screen on which the CPU 15 opens the file is stored in the execution screen 51f. The data is output to the LCD controller 14 (step S41). As a result, the execution screen 51f of the file is displayed in the diagonal area corresponding to the antenna 30f from the antenna 30a of the display screen 51 as shown in the lower part of FIG.

  After step S41, the process returns to step S31 and waits for the next operation. Note that the process of step S37 (and step S38 in the case of NO) may be executed immediately after step S32, and may proceed to step S39 if YES in step S36.

  Further, the order of processing in step S34 may be executed at least before YES is determined in step S36. In addition, regarding the process of step S36, as described in the process of step S15, the first and second coordinates are specified during the card movement before the non-contact card 60b leaves the screen, and the diagonal coordinates thus specified are sequentially specified. Based on the above, it may be controlled to execute the processing after step S39. Thereby, the user can determine the size while viewing the displacement of the size of the file execution screen.

  FIG. 14 is a diagram showing another example of the display screen displayed in the process executed in the display system of FIG. With reference to FIG. 6, the case where an icon of a new presentation file is determined in advance as a display object has been described. However, as described in FIGS. 12 and 13, a file is copied from a contactless card and the icon display is performed. May be performed.

  For example, in the processing example of FIG. 5, after step S2, the file is acquired as in step S34 of FIG. 12, and the CPU 15 instructs the LCD controller 14 to display the icon of the file acquired as a display object instead of step S8. It is good to output. Accordingly, when the non-contact card 60c is brought close to the antenna 30a as shown in the upper display screen 51 of FIG. 14, it is originally in the non-contact card 60c at a corresponding position as shown in the lower display screen 51 of FIG. An icon 51g for opening the stored file 63h (here, the presentation file A) is displayed. A link to the copy destination of the file 63h is provided on this icon 51g. The user can open the file 63h by selecting the icon 51g.

  Next, the example which displays a WEB page is given. As a premise of this WEB page browsing operation, a WEB browser is incorporated in the above-described control device so as to be executable, and an I such as a NIC for connecting to a wide area network such as the Internet and connecting to a WEB server or the like. / F is assumed.

  When the identification information 63a is read by any one of the plurality of antennas 30n, the control device described above controls the read antenna 30n by the communication control means, and the predetermined address of the memory 63 in the non-contact card 60 is controlled. Browser activation means for reading a URI (URL 63b, etc.) from the URL, starting a WEB browser, and passing the URL 63b. The browser activation means may be incorporated so as to be executable as a browser activation application, for example. The WEB browser accesses the WEB page indicated by the URL 63b. The display coordinate instruction means determines the display coordinates of the execution screen of the WEB browser (the display screen of the WEB page indicated by the URL 63b) as the display coordinates of the display window, and issues an instruction to display the execution screen at the determined display coordinates. And output to the display control means. In this way, display control of the WEB browser can be performed based on the URL 63b read from the contactless card 60.

  In addition, the search character string is stored in the memory 63 of the contactless card 60, read by the browser activation means, and passed to the WEB browser as a search character string, so that the WEB browser uses the Internet search service to search. It is also possible to display a link list as a search result as an execution screen.

  Next, a case where user identification information (user ID and password 63g) for identifying a user is required when browsing a WEB page indicated by the URL 63b with a WEB browser will be described. In this case, the browser activation means reads the user ID / password 63g from another predetermined address of the memory 63 in the contactless card 60 after passing the URL 63b to the WEB browser, for example, and passes it to the WEB browser. The WEB browser gives this user ID / password 63g to the WEB page indicated by the URL 63b. The user ID / password 63g may be read out while the non-contact card 60 is in close proximity. First, when the WEB page is accessed and cannot be displayed in a normal state, the user ID / password request screen is displayed. You may pass to a WEB browser at the time.

  Next, an example of displaying an e-mail mailer will be given. As a premise of this, the above-mentioned control device incorporates an e-mail mailer as one of the applications in an executable manner, and has an I / F such as a NIC for connecting to a wide area network such as the Internet and connecting to a mail server or the like. It shall be provided. For the WEB page display process, the mail transmission screen display process can be performed simply by activating the mailer instead of the WEB browser and reading the destination e-mail address 63f instead of the URL 63b. The user ID / password 63g can be used as a mail account.

  Next, an example in which the print setting screen display process of the printer 42 is performed will be described. As a premise of this, it is assumed that a printer driver of the printer 42 is incorporated in the above-described control device and the printer 42 is connected. For the WEB page display process, the print setting screen display process can be performed simply by activating the printer driver instead of the WEB browser and reading the device name 63e indicating the printer 42 instead of the URL 63b. Further, the scan setting screen display process of the scanner device 41 can be similarly described. By applying the scanner driver instead of the printer driver instead of the printer 42, the scanner device 41 can display the scan setting screen.

  Next, a method for using the setting information 63i will be described. In each example described above, the information 63b to 63h in the memory 63 of FIG. 3 is described as being stored. Of course, if the display object and information necessary for displaying the display object (information to be read from the non-contact card 60) are determined in advance on the display system side, control as in each of the above examples can be executed individually. However, it is preferable that the control of each example can be selectively executed by one display system. The setting information 63i is information that is referred to in order to make such a selection.

  When the CPU 15 receives the identification information 63a, the CPU 15 may first read the setting information 63i using a communication unit. That is, the control device described above may include a setting information reading unit that first reads the setting information 63i recorded in the contactless card 60 when the identification information 63a is read by any of the plurality of antennas 30n. This setting information reading means may be incorporated so as to be executable as a setting information reading application, for example.

  The display coordinate instruction means improves the user operability if the display object is determined (and read when the display object is displayed) based on the setting information 63i read by the setting information reading means. Information 63b to 63h etc. may be determined). Subsequent determination of the display position of the display object and output of the display instruction are as described above.

  An example of the setting information 63i is given. First, it is preferable to set the type of display object such as whether the display object is an icon or a display window (application execution screen). Further, in the case of an icon, whether the file linked with the icon needs to be copied from the contactless card 60, should be created anew, and which application is the file if created anew Such information may be included in the setting information 63i. In the case of the application execution screen, which of the information 63b to 63h indicates which application needs to be executed and information that improves the user operability by reading the application when it is executed. Such information may also be included in the setting information 63i.

  Further, as the setting information 63i, a file is stored, and a program for causing the CPU 15 to function as a file copying unit, a filer starting unit, a browser starting unit, a file (new file) generating unit, etc. It may be stored in an automatic execution format such as bat. As a result, the above-described setting information reading application is already incorporated in the general-purpose OS. If a program for causing the CPU 15 to function as each means is incorporated in the control device described above, an automatic execution format program such as which program is read may be stored.

  The user stores each piece of information 63b to 63h as necessary, and stores setting information 63i indicating a setting to be used at the closest time according to the information, and the user stores the setting information 62i after use. What is necessary is just to rewrite with PC etc.

  In each of the above examples, when the position of the display object once displayed is moved, it may be performed by an operation means other than the operation means using the non-contact card 60. However, for example, it may be movable by performing an operation of bringing the non-contact card 60 close to the display position once displayed. Therefore, when the same identification information 63a as the identification information 63a read when the display object is displayed while the display object is displayed (however, after each predetermined time has passed), the display position (and (Size) may be determined, and the display object may be displayed again at the determined position / size and moved. Such control is possible when the setting information 63i is adopted as long as the setting information 63i is not rewritten.
