Even without this operation, the display mode can be switched according to the operation of the operation device by the user. Therefore, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment can further improve user operability.

  Here, examples of the operation device according to the present embodiment include a mouse, a keyboard, and a touch panel. For example, when the operation device is a mouse, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment uses, for example, data indicating the moving direction and moving amount of the mouse received by wireless / wired as detection information. For example, when the operation device is a keyboard, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment uses, for example, data indicating a key pressed on the keyboard received by wireless / wired as detection information. For example, when the operation device is a touch panel, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment uses, as detection information, data indicating the operation position with respect to the touch panel received by wireless / wired, for example.

  The storage unit (not shown) is a storage unit included in the display control apparatus 100, and stores various data such as image data and applications. Here, as the storage unit (not shown), for example, a magnetic recording medium such as a hard disk, a nonvolatile memory such as an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable and Programmable Read Only Memory), a flash memory (flash memory), or the like. nonvolatile memory). Further, the storage unit (not shown) may be detachable from the display control device 100.

  Examples of the operation unit (not shown) include a button, a direction key, a rotary selector such as a jog dial, or a combination thereof. In addition, the display control device 100 can be connected to, for example, an operation device (for example, a keyboard, a mouse, the operation device 10, etc.) as an external device of the display control device 100.

  Examples of the display unit (not shown) include a liquid crystal display (LCD) and an organic EL display (also referred to as an OLED display (Organic Light Emitting Diode display)). The display unit (not shown) may be a device capable of display and user operation, such as a touch screen. In addition, the display control device 100 can be connected to a display device (for example, an external display) as an external device of the display control device 100 regardless of the presence or absence of a display unit (not shown).

  The communication unit (not shown) is a communication unit included in the display control device 100, and performs wireless / wired communication with an external device via a network (or directly).

A wireless network such as a wireless WAN (WWAN: Wireless Wide Area Network) via the Internet, or the Internet using a communication protocol such as TCP / IP (Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol).

  Hereinafter, an example of a process (a process related to the display control method) in the display control apparatus 100 will be described while describing a configuration example of the display control apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment shown in FIG.

  The determination unit 102 plays a leading role in performing the process (determination process) of (1), and displays a display mode for displaying a target object included in the image based on an image signal indicating the image displayed on the display screen. judge.

  Here, examples of the image signal processed by the determination unit 102 include an image signal output from the display control unit 104, but the image signal processed by the determination unit 102 is not limited to the above. For example, the determination unit 102 can also process the processed image signal obtained by performing image processing such as noise reduction processing and edge enhancement processing on the image signal output from the display control unit 104. The image signal processed by the determination unit 102 is not limited to an image signal indicating the entire image displayed on the display screen. For example, an image signal indicating an image of a predetermined area to be described later It may be an image signal indicating an image.

  The image signal according to the present embodiment includes a digital signal, but may be an analog signal. When the image signal is an analog signal, the determination unit 102 performs processing by converting the image signal into a digital signal using, for example, an ADC (Analog to Digital Converter).

  More specifically, the determination unit 102 determines the display mode based on, for example, an image of a predetermined area in the image. For example, the determination unit 102 refers to the image data of the areas corresponding to the four corners of the image, and determines the display mode based on whether the image data of these areas indicates the target object. For example, the determination unit 102 determines the first display mode (inner mode) when all of the image data in the areas corresponding to the four corners indicate the target object, and otherwise determines the second display mode (entire mode). Mode).

  FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram for explaining an example of processing in the determination unit 102 included in the display control apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment. Here, A to C shown in FIG. 3 each show an example of an image displayed on the display screen. In FIG. 3, the target object (character “A”) is displayed in the second display mode (overall mode). A rectangular parallelepiped in which an image is displayed is shown as an example.

  For example, when the image indicated by the image signal is the image shown in A of FIG. 3, the determination unit 102 does not indicate the target object in the image data in the area corresponding to the four corners of the image. Is determined. When the image indicated by the image signal is the image shown in FIG. 3A, the display control apparatus 100 does not switch the display mode because the current display mode matches the determined display mode.

  For example, when the image indicated by the image signal is the image shown in FIG. 3B, the determination unit 102 indicates that the first display mode (inner mode) because the image data in the region corresponding to the four corners of the image indicates the target object. ). When the image indicated by the image signal is the image shown in FIG. 3B, the current display mode and the determined display mode do not match, so the display control device 100 sets the display mode to the second display mode. Switch from the (overall mode) to the first display mode (inner mode).

  For example, when the image indicated by the image signal is the image shown in C of FIG. 3, the determination unit 102 does not indicate the target object because all of the image data in the region corresponding to the four corners in the image does not indicate the target object. The display mode (overall mode) is determined. If the second display mode (overall mode) is determined when the image indicated by the image signal is the image shown in FIG. 3C, the current display mode matches the determined display mode. Therefore, the display control apparatus 100 does not switch the display mode.

  When the determination unit 102 determines that the display mode is the first display mode (inner mode) when all of the image data in the areas corresponding to the four corners indicate the target object, the display control apparatus 100, for example, as described above Then, selective display mode switching is performed.

  Note that the display mode determination processing based on the image of the predetermined region in the image in the determination unit 102 is not limited to the above. For example, the determination unit 102 may determine the first display mode (inner mode) when image data of a predetermined number or more of the image data of the regions corresponding to the four corners indicates the target object. it can. The predetermined number may be set in advance or may be set by a user operation. The determination unit 102 can also determine a display mode based on an image of a predetermined region based on detection criteria that are different for each target object.

  The determination unit 102 can also determine a display mode for displaying the target object based on information constituting the target object indicated by the image signal. Here, as information constituting the target object according to the present embodiment, for example, data indicating the outside of the target object (information for displaying the appearance) and / or data indicating the inside of the target object (internal Information for display).

  More specifically, when the target object is represented by a polygon, and information indicating whether the target object is data indicating the inside of the target object or data indicating the outside of the target object is added to the polygon data For example, the determination unit 102 further determines the display mode based on the information added to the polygon data. For example, in the case where image data of a predetermined number or more of the image data of the areas corresponding to the four corners is data indicating the inside of the target object, the determination unit 102 uses the first display mode (internal Mode), otherwise, it is determined as the second display mode (overall mode). In addition, for example, the determination unit 102 determines the first display mode (inner mode) when the entire area indicating the target object is data indicating the inside of the target object, and in other cases, the second display mode You may determine with display mode (whole mode).

  Further, the predetermined area of the image referred to in the state detection process in the determination unit 102 is not limited to the area corresponding to the four corners of the image. For example, the predetermined area of the image according to the present embodiment includes an area set at an arbitrary position by a content provider or the like, or an area set by a user operation. In addition, the predetermined area of the image according to the present embodiment may be an area that is different for each target object.

  For example, as described above, the determination unit 102 determines the display mode based on an image of a predetermined region in the image. Note that the display mode determination method based on the image signal in the determination unit 102 according to the present embodiment is not limited to a method based on an image of a predetermined region in the image.

  For example, the determination unit 102 can determine the display mode based on the size of the area occupied by the target object in the image. For example, the determination unit 102 calculates the ratio of the area occupied by the target object in the image, and when the calculated ratio is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold (or when the ratio exceeds the predetermined threshold), the first display mode (Inner mode) is determined, and in other cases, the second display mode (overall mode) is determined.

  When the target object is represented by a polygon and information indicating whether the target object is data indicating the inside of the target object or data indicating the outside is added to the polygon data, the determination unit 102 For example, the display mode may be determined based on the image data of the target object. For example, when the image data of the target object is data indicating the outside, the determination unit 102 determines the second display mode (overall mode), and data other than the external contour in the image data of the target object If it is the data shown, it is determined as the first display mode (inner mode).

  The determination unit 102 determines the display mode based on the image signal, for example, by performing the processing as described above. Needless to say, the processing in the determination unit 102 according to the present embodiment is not limited to the above.

  For example, the determination unit 102 transmits a switching signal indicating the determination result to the display control unit 104. Here, as the switching signal, for example, a signal in which the first display mode and the second display mode are represented by signal levels (high / low) can be cited. Not limited to.

  The display control unit 104 plays a leading role in performing the process (2) (display control process), and based on the determination result of the display mode in the determination unit 102, the image in the first display mode based on the detection information. Alternatively, one of the images in the second display mode based on the detection information is displayed on the display screen. When a switching signal indicating that the display mode is determined to be the first display mode is transmitted, the display control unit 104 displays an image in the first display mode on the display screen, and the second display mode When a switching signal indicating that the determination has been made is transmitted, an image in the second display mode is displayed on the display screen.

  Here, as a display screen on which the display control unit 104 displays an image, for example, a display screen of a display unit (not shown) included in the display control apparatus 100 can be cited, and a display on which the display control unit 104 displays an image. The screen is not limited to the above. For example, the display control unit 104 may display an image on a display screen of an external display device connected wirelessly / wired via a network (or directly).

  The display control unit 104 includes, for example, a calculation unit 110, a first display processing unit 112, a second display processing unit 114, and a switching unit 116.

  The calculation unit 110 calculates a change amount for changing the display based on the detection information. Here, the change amount calculated based on the detection information corresponds to the operation amount in the operation device. Then, the calculation unit 110 transmits the calculation result to the first display processing unit 112 and the second display processing unit 114.

  For example, when the detection information indicates the detection value of the acceleration sensor, the calculation unit 110 calculates the velocity by integrating the detection value of the acceleration with time. Then, the amount of change in the position of the operating device is calculated by integrating the calculated speed with time. For example, when the detection information indicates the detection value of each speed sensor, the calculation unit 110 calculates the amount of change in direction by calculating the angle by integrating the detection value of the angular velocity with time. In addition, the calculation unit 110 can also calculate the amount of change in rotation by calculating a rotation matrix around any three axes using, for example, the amount of change in orientation. For example, when the detection information indicates the detection value of the pressure sensor, the calculation unit 110 calculates, for example, the difference between the detection value of the pressure and the reference value as the amount of change in pressure.

  In addition, the process in the calculating part 110 is not restricted above. For example, the calculation unit 110 can perform arbitrary calculation processing corresponding to the type of detection information acquired from an operation device such as a mouse, a keyboard, or a touch panel.

  In addition, the calculation unit 110 may adjust the amount of change to be calculated based on a switching signal (a signal indicating the display mode determination result) transmitted from the determination unit 102. For example, the calculation unit 110 indicates a change amount (gain of change amount) when the switching signal indicates the first display mode (inner mode), and a change when the switching signal indicates the second display mode (overall mode). Make it smaller than the amount (gain of change). For example, as described above, the calculation unit 110 adjusts the gain of the change amount based on the switching signal, whereby the display control device 100 can improve the visibility of the target object by the user.

  The first display processing unit 112 generates a first image corresponding to the first display mode based on the amount of change calculated by the calculation unit 110. Further, the second display processing unit 114 generates a second image corresponding to the second display mode based on the amount of change calculated by the calculation unit 110.

  Here, each of the first display processing unit 112 and the second display processing unit 114 corresponds to the amount of change calculated by the calculation unit 110 using, for example, image data stored in a storage unit (not shown). Generate an image. Each of the first display processing unit 112 and the second display processing unit 114 may generate an image by performing, for example, a polygon generation process. Further, each of the first display processing unit 112 and the second display processing unit 114 communicates with an external device such as a server via a communication unit (not shown), for example, and acquires polygon data from the external device. It is also possible to generate an image.

  FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a relationship between an operation on the operation device and display processing in the display control apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment. Here, FIG. 4 shows an example of the relationship between the operation on the operation device 10 shown in FIG. 1 and the display processing in each of the first display mode (inner mode) and the second display mode (overall mode). .

  Each of the first display processing unit 112 and the second display processing unit 114 specifies the type of processing using, for example, a table showing a correspondence relationship as shown in FIG. 4 and a calculation result transmitted from the calculation unit 110. Then, an image corresponding to the amount of change indicated by the calculation result is generated.

  Note that the relationship between the operation on the operation device and the display process is not limited to the example shown in FIG. For example, the display control apparatus 100 may enable display mode switching according to the display control method according to the present embodiment when the detection information indicates that the user has performed a predetermined operation on the operation device. Is possible. In addition, the display control apparatus 100 generates, for example, detection information indicating that the user has performed a predetermined operation on the operation device, or an operation signal corresponding to a predetermined operation transmitted from an operation unit (not shown). Based on the user's operation, a display mode may be set.

  FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram illustrating another example of the relationship between the operation on the operation device and the display processing in the display control apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment. Here, FIG. 5 shows an example of the relationship between the operation in the operation device 10 shown in FIG. 1 and the display processing in each of the first display mode (inner mode) and the second display mode (overall mode). . In addition, “enable” illustrated in FIG. 5 means, for example, that the user operation by the operation device 10 is enabled and that the display mode switching according to the present embodiment is enabled.

(I) When “Enable” shown in FIG. 5 means that user operation by the operation device 10 is validated In the case of (I) above, the first display processing unit 112 and the second display processing unit 114 are respectively For example, when processing is performed using the table showing the correspondence relationship shown in FIG. 5, for example, the following display control (a) and (b) is realized.

(A) Control of the moving speed of the target object displayed on the display screen When the user holds the operation device 10 at a predetermined level (a level corresponding to “normal” shown in FIG. 5), an operation using the operation device 10 is performed. It becomes possible. For example, when the user moves the operation device 10 forward while holding the operation device 10 at the predetermined level of pressure, the target object displayed on the display screen moves forward. Further, if the user holds the operation device 10 stronger than the predetermined level while the operation device 10 is moving, the moving speed of the target object displayed on the display screen is increased. Further, when the user grips the operation device 10 weaker than the predetermined level while the operation device 10 is moving, the moving speed of the target object displayed on the display screen becomes slow. When the user grips the operation device 10 while the operation device 10 is moving, the movement of the target object displayed on the display screen stops.

(B) Activation of operation by operation device 10 and switching of display mode by operation As in (a) above, the user moves operation device 10 at a predetermined level (a level corresponding to “normal” shown in FIG. 5). When gripped, an operation using the operation device 10 is possible. For example, when the user moves the operation device 10 forward while holding the operation device 10 at the predetermined level of pressure, the target object displayed on the display screen moves forward. After the image in the current display mode is changed until the display mode is switched, the user weakens the grip of the operation device 10 and again sets the operation device 10 to a predetermined level (a level corresponding to “normal” shown in FIG. 5). Hold the button to switch the display mode.

  For example, when performing the display control shown in (b) above, the display control apparatus 100 does not change the strength of the operation device 10 as described above even if the image in the current display mode changes until the display mode is switched. If the operation related to is not performed, the display mode is not switched. Therefore, for example, when performing the display control shown in (b) above, the user switches display modes in the display control apparatus 100 by an intentional operation (for example, an operation related to the gripping strength of the operation device 10). Can be controlled.

  Further, even when the display mode is not switched, the display control device 100 causes the calculation unit 102 to change the amount corresponding to the current display mode when the image in the current display mode changes until the display mode is switched. In addition, the amount of change corresponding to the display mode after switching may be calculated. As described above, the calculation unit 110 adjusts the gain of the amount of change corresponding to the display mode, so that the visibility of the target object by the user can be improved. Therefore, by further calculating the amount of change corresponding to the display mode after switching in the calculation unit 102, the display control device 100 is operated by the user according to the gripping strength of the operation device 10 as described above. Even when the display mode is switched, the visibility of the target object by the user can be improved.

  Note that the operation of the operation device that enables (enables) the user operation by the operation device 10 in the display control apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment is not limited to the example illustrated in FIG. The display control apparatus 100 can perform any operation (an example of a predetermined operation) that can be detected based on the detection information, such as “lifting the operation device”, “tapping the operation device”, “holding the operation device long”, etc. ), The user operation by the operation device 10 can be validated.

(II) “Enable” shown in FIG. 5 means that display mode switching according to the present embodiment is enabled. In the case of (II), the first display processing unit 112 and the second display processing unit. For example, the following display control is realized when each of 114 performs processing using the table showing the correspondence shown in FIG. 5, for example.
The user weakens the grip of the operation device 10 after changing the image in the current display mode until the display mode is switched. Then, when the user strengthens the grip of the operation device 10 to a predetermined level (corresponding to a predetermined operation), the display mode is switched.

  In the above display control example, when the user continues to hold the operation device 10 with a constant pressure, the display control apparatus 100 does not switch the display mode. Here, even in the case where the display mode is not switched until the switching of the display mode becomes valid as in the above display control example, the calculation unit 110 of the display control device 100 displays the determination result of the determination unit 102. Based on this, it is possible to adjust the amount of change (gain of change amount). Therefore, even when the display mode is switched based on a predetermined operation by the user as in the above display control example, the display control device 100 displays an image displayed on the display screen after the switching, An image similar to the case where the display mode is not switched based on a predetermined operation by the user can be obtained.

  In the display control apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment, the operation of the operation device that enables the display mode switching is not limited to the example illustrated in FIG. The display control apparatus 100 can perform any operation (an example of a predetermined operation) that can be detected based on the detection information, such as “lifting the operation device”, “tapping the operation device”, “holding the operation device long”, etc. ), The display mode can be switched.

  With reference to FIG. 2 again, an example of the configuration of the display control apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment will be described. The switching unit 116 outputs an image signal indicating either the first image or the second image based on the switching signal (signal indicating the display mode determination result) transmitted from the determination unit 102.

  In addition, when the display control apparatus 100 selectively enables display mode switching by a user's predetermined operation, the switching unit 116, for example, includes the first display processing unit 112 and / or the second display processing unit 114. An image signal indicating either one of the first image and the second image is output based on the enable signal that is transmitted / received to indicate whether display mode switching is enabled / disabled and the switching signal. In the above case, for example, even if the switching signal indicates a display mode different from the current display mode, the switching unit 116 switches to the display mode indicated by the switching signal as long as an enable signal indicating that switching is effective is not transmitted. The image signal indicating the corresponding image is not output.

  The display control apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment performs the process (1) (determination process) and the process (2) (display control process), for example, with the configuration shown in FIG. Here, the display control apparatus 100 individually includes the determination unit 102 and the display control unit 104 illustrated in FIG. 2 (for example, each is realized by an individual processing circuit), but the display control according to the first embodiment is performed. The configuration of the apparatus is not limited to the above. For example, in the display control apparatus according to the first embodiment, a control unit (not shown) may serve as the determination unit 102 and the display control unit 104, and either the determination unit 102 or the display control unit 104 can be used. You may play either role.

  Therefore, the display control apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment displays, for example, according to the operation of the operation device by the user without the user performing a predetermined operation such as pressing a button, for example, with the configuration illustrated in FIG. You can switch modes.

  Further, the display control apparatus 100 can also enable display mode switching according to the display control method according to the present embodiment in accordance with an explicit operation of the user. Further, the display control apparatus 100 may switch the display mode according to an explicit operation by the user.

[Modification of Display Control Device According to First Embodiment]
In addition, the process in the display control apparatus 100 which concerns on 1st Embodiment is not restricted to the process mentioned above. For example, the display control apparatus according to the modification of the first embodiment may generate a stereoscopic image in the display control unit (more strictly, the first display processing unit and the second display processing unit). Here, as the stereoscopic image generated by the display control unit according to the modification, for example, a stereoscopic image that is stereoscopically viewed in the front direction, a stereoscopic image that is stereoscopically viewed in the depth direction, any direction of the near direction and the depth direction Also, any one of stereoscopic images that are not stereoscopically viewed can be mentioned.

  The display control unit according to the modification may be a three-dimensional display as described above, for example, in each of the first display mode and the second display mode, or one of the first display mode and the second display mode. A visual image is generated. Here, when the stereoscopic image is generated in each of the first display mode and the second display mode, the display control unit according to the modification example, for example, in the first display mode and the second display mode, Images with different viewing directions are generated. Note that the stereoscopic image generated by the display control unit according to the modification in the case of generating the stereoscopic image in each of the first display mode and the second display mode is not limited to the above. For example, when the display control unit according to the modification generates a stereoscopic image in each of the first display mode and the second display mode, the direction of the stereoscopic view in the first display mode and the second display mode. May generate the same image.

  For example, when the display control unit according to the modification displays an image in a display mode (inner mode) in which the inside of the target object is displayed, the stereoscopic view is stereoscopically viewed in the depth direction. Display an image. In addition, when the display control unit according to the modification further displays an image in a display mode (overall mode) in which the appearance of the target object is displayed, for example, a stereoscopic image that is stereoscopically viewed in the front direction, or A stereoscopic image that is stereoscopically viewed in the depth direction may be displayed.

  6 and 7 are explanatory diagrams for explaining the principle of displaying a stereoscopic image. 6 and 7, with the display screen 300 as the origin, the positive x-axis direction corresponds to the depth direction, and the negative x-axis direction corresponds to the front direction. That is, FIG. 6 shows an example in which a stereoscopic image in which the object O is stereoscopically viewed in the depth direction is displayed, and FIG. 7 is a stereoscopic image in which the object O is stereoscopically viewed in the near direction. An example of display is shown.

  First, a case where the display control unit according to the modification displays a stereoscopic image stereoscopically viewed in the depth direction will be described with reference to FIG. The distance between the user and the display screen 300 is “D1”, the parallax between the parallax image L and the parallax image R is “P”, the distance between both eyes of the user is “E”, and the distance between the position where the object O is displayed and the display screen 300 Is set to “D2”, the parallax “P” is expressed by Equation 1 below from the relationship of D2: P = (D1 + D2): E.

P = (D2 · E) / (D1 + D2)
... (Formula 1)

  For example, when E = 65 [mm] and D1 = 2 [m], when the object O is displayed at a position in the depth direction 24 [m] (D2 = 24 [m]) on the display screen 300, P = 6 [cm]. Therefore, in the above case, the display control unit according to the modified example generates a parallax image having a parallax of 6 [cm].

  Here, the display control unit according to the modification uses, for example, a distance sensor or the like provided on the display screen 300 side by setting the value of E as a fixed value (for example, an average value of the distance between eyes of a general user). The value of D1 is specified based on the detection values of various sensors. Further, the display control unit according to the modification uses, for example, a value set by a content provider or a value set by a user operation as the value of D2. Needless to say, the setting method of E, D1, and D2 in the display control unit according to the modification is not limited to the above.

  Further, for example, even if the detection value indicated by the detection information changes, the display control unit according to the modification does not change the stereoscopic image that is stereoscopically viewed in the depth direction based on the detection information. As described above, the display control apparatus according to the modification can improve the visibility of the target object by the user by not changing the parallax by the parallax image L and the parallax image R by the operation of the user's operation device. . Needless to say, the display control apparatus according to the modification of the present embodiment can change the stereoscopic image stereoscopically viewed in the depth direction in accordance with the detection value indicated by the detection information.

  Next, a case where the display control unit according to the modification displays a stereoscopic image stereoscopically viewed in the front direction will be described with reference to FIG. The distance between the user and the display screen 300 is “D1”, the parallax between the parallax image L and the parallax image R is “P”, the distance between both eyes of the user is “E”, and the distance between the position where the object O is displayed and the display screen 300 Is represented as “D2”, the parallax “P” is expressed by the following Equation 2 from the relationship of D2: P = (D1−D2): E.

P = (D2 · E) / (D1-D2)
... (Formula 2)

  For example, when E = 65 [mm] and D1 = 2 [m], the object O is displayed at a position in the front direction of 1.2 [m] (D2 = 1.2 [m]) on the display screen 300. Is P = 10 [cm]. Therefore, in the above case, the display control unit according to the modified example generates a parallax image having a parallax of 10 [cm].

  Here, for example, the display control unit according to the modification does not change the stereoscopic image stereoscopically viewed in the forward direction based on the detection information, but the processing in the display control unit according to the modification is not limited to the above. . For example, the display control unit according to the modification may change a stereoscopic image to be stereoscopically viewed in the front direction based on the detection information.

  The display control unit according to the modified example generates a stereoscopic image using the principle as shown with reference to FIGS.

[Example of Processing in Display Control Device According to First Embodiment]
Next, an example of processing in the display control apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment will be described. FIG. 8 is a flowchart illustrating an example of processing in the display control apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment. Here, in FIG. 8, the process of step S100 corresponds to the process (1) (determination process), and the processes of steps S102 to S110 correspond to the process (2) (display control process). Further, the processing shown in FIG. 8 is not performed in a kind that is not performed again once it is performed, but is performed repeatedly. Needless to say, the display control apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment can stop the execution of the process illustrated in FIG. 8 by a user operation, for example.

  The display control apparatus 100 determines the display mode based on the image signal indicating the image displayed on the display screen (S100). Here, the process of step S100 is performed by the determination unit 102, for example.

  The display control apparatus 100 calculates an operation amount (change amount) in the operation device based on the detection information (S102). Here, the process of step S102 is performed by the calculating part 110, for example. In step S102, the change amount (change amount gain) may be adjusted based on a display mode determined based on an image displayed on the display screen.

  Although FIG. 8 shows that the display control apparatus 100 performs the process of step S102 after the process of step S100, the process in the display control apparatus 100 is not limited to the above. The display control apparatus 100 can perform the process of step S100 and the process of step S102 independently. Therefore, for example, the display control apparatus 100 may perform the process of step S100 and the process of step S102 in synchronization, or may perform the process of step S100 after the process of step S102.

  When the process of step S102 is performed, the display control apparatus 100 performs a display process for each of the first display mode and the second display mode (S104). Here, the process of step S104 is performed by the first display processing unit 112 and the second display processing unit 114, for example.

  More specifically, in step S104, the display control apparatus 100 specifies the type of processing using, for example, the tables shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 and the calculation result in step S102, and the change indicated by the calculation result is displayed. An image corresponding to the amount is generated.

  Note that the processing in step S104 is not limited to the above. For example, the display control apparatus 100 may generate a stereoscopic image corresponding to each of the first display mode and the second display mode in step S104.

  When the process of step S104 is performed, the display control apparatus 100 determines whether to control display in the first display mode (S106). Here, the determination of step S106 is performed based on the determination result in the process of step S100, for example. Further, the process of step S106 and the processes of steps S108 and S110 described later are performed by the switching unit 116, for example.

  In addition, the process of step S106 in the display control apparatus 100 which concerns on this embodiment is not restricted above. For example, the display control apparatus 100 can also determine to control in the current display mode until a user's predetermined operation is detected based on the detection information, regardless of the determination result in the process of step S100. In the above case, the process of step S106 is performed by determining whether or not the current display mode is the first display mode, for example.

  If it is determined in step S106 that the display is controlled in the first display mode, the display control apparatus 100 outputs an image signal indicating the first image (an image corresponding to the first display mode) generated in step S104. The first image is output and displayed on the display screen (S108).

  If it is not determined in step S106 that the display is controlled in the first display mode, the display control device 100 displays an image signal indicating the second image (an image corresponding to the second display mode) generated in step S104. And the second image is displayed on the display screen (S110).

  The display control apparatus 100 switches the display mode based on the image displayed on the display screen, for example, by performing the process shown in FIG. Needless to say, the processing in the display control apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment is not limited to the processing shown in FIG.

(Display control apparatus according to the second embodiment)
The configuration of the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment capable of realizing the processing according to the display control method according to the present embodiment is not limited to the configuration of the display control apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment described above. . FIG. 9 is a block diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of the display control apparatus 200 according to the second embodiment.

  The display control apparatus 200 according to the second embodiment shown in FIG. 9 has basically the same configuration as the display control apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment shown in FIG. 2, but the first control shown in FIG. Compared with the display control apparatus 100 according to the embodiment, the display control apparatus 200 according to the second embodiment is different in that detection information is input to the determination unit 202.

  Similar to the determination unit 102 according to the first embodiment illustrated in FIG. 2, the determination unit 202 determines a display mode for displaying the target object included in the image, based on the image signal. The determination unit 202 further determines a display mode for displaying the target object based on the detection information.

  More specifically, for example, the determination unit 202 determines whether or not the zoom amount in the up direction of the target object detected based on the detection information is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold (or greater than a predetermined threshold). The same shall apply hereinafter). Here, the determination unit 202 specifies that the zoom operation has been performed and the zoom amount by using, for example, a table as illustrated in FIG. 4 and the detection value of the detection information. If it is determined that the zoom amount is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold, the determination unit 202 determines that the display mode is “display mode in which the inside of the target object is displayed” (internal mode), and the zoom amount is predetermined. If it is not determined that the value is equal to or greater than the threshold value, it is determined that the “display mode in which the appearance of the target object is displayed” (overall mode).

  Note that the display mode determination process based on the detection information in the determination unit 202 according to the second embodiment is not limited to the above. The determination unit 202 can also determine the display mode based on the image signal and the detection information.

  For example, if the determination unit 202 does not determine that the “display mode in which the inside of the target object is displayed” (inner mode) is determined as a result of the determination based on the image of a predetermined region in the image, The display mode is determined by determining whether or not the target object is focused. Here, the determination unit 202 specifies that the focus operation has been performed using, for example, a table and detection information as illustrated in FIG. In the above case, for example, when determining that the target object is focused, the determination unit 202 determines that the display mode is “display mode in which the inside of the target object is displayed” (inner mode). If the determination unit 202 does not determine that the target object is focused, the determination unit 202 determines that the display mode is “display mode in which the appearance of the target object is displayed” (overall mode).

  For example, as described above, the determination unit 202 determines the display mode based on each of the image signal, the detection information, or a combination of the image signal and the detection information. Here, when the determination result based on the image signal is different from the determination result based on the detection information, the determination unit 202 uses, for example, a display mode different from the current display mode as the determination result. The processing in is not limited to the above. For example, when the priority is provided for the determination result based on the image signal and the determination result based on the detection information, the determination unit 202 determines the display mode indicated by the determination result having a high priority. As a result.

  For example, when the zoom amount in the up direction of the target object detected based on the detection information is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold, the determination unit 202 indicates that the zoom amount is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold. Is transmitted to the calculation unit 110. Then, the calculation unit 110 adjusts the gain of the change amount based on a signal indicating that the zoom amount transmitted from the determination unit 202 is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold.

  Here, for example, when the target object is displayed larger by zooming up, even if the rotation speed indicated by the detection information is the same, for example, the user feels that the target object is moving greatly. sell. In the display control apparatus 200 according to the second embodiment, for example, when the determination unit 202 transmits a signal indicating that the zoom amount is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold to the calculation unit 110, the calculation unit 110 determines the amount of change. Gain is adjusted small. Therefore, the display control apparatus 200 can improve the visibility of the target object by the user.

  The display control apparatus 200 according to the second embodiment basically has the same configuration and function as the display control apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment shown in FIG. Therefore, the display control device 200 can achieve the same effects as the display control device 100 according to the first embodiment shown in FIG.

  As described above, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment includes, for example, the process (1) (determination process) and the process (2) (display control process) as processes related to the display control method according to the present embodiment. )I do. Here, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment determines the display mode for displaying the target object based on the image displayed on the display screen in the process (1) (determination process). And the display control apparatus which concerns on this embodiment selectively switches a display mode based on the determination result of a display mode in the process (display control process) of (2).

  Therefore, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment can switch the display mode based on the image displayed on the display screen.

  Further, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment changes the image according to the operation of the operation device by the user and switches the display mode based on the image displayed on the display screen. Even without this operation, the display mode can be switched according to the operation of the operation device by the user. Therefore, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment can further improve user operability.

  Further, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment adjusts a change amount (for example, a gain of the change amount) calculated based on detection information indicating an operation on the operation device based on the display mode determination result. Therefore, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment can increase the visibility of the target object by the user.

  In addition, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment performs display in each of the display mode in which the inside of the target object is displayed, the display mode in which the appearance of the target object is displayed, and the display mode in which the inside of the target object is displayed. It is also possible to display a stereoscopic image corresponding to the mode.

  Here, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment displays, for example, a stereoscopic image that is stereoscopically viewed in the depth direction in a display mode in which the inside of the target object is displayed. For example, by displaying a stereoscopic image that is stereoscopically viewed in the depth direction only in the display mode in which the inside of the target object is displayed, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment more clearly indicates that the display mode has been switched. The user can be made aware. Further, for example, in a display mode in which the inside of the target object is displayed, a stereoscopic image that is stereoscopically viewed in the depth direction is displayed, and in a display mode in which the appearance of the target object is displayed, a stereoscopic image that is stereoscopically viewed in the front direction is displayed. Also by displaying the visual image, the display control apparatus according to the present embodiment can make the user more clearly recognize that the display mode has been switched.

  As described above, the display control apparatus has been described as the present embodiment, but the present embodiment is not limited to such a form. In this embodiment, for example, a display such as a communication device such as a mobile phone or a smartphone, a video / music playback device (or video / music recording / playback device), a game machine, a computer such as a PC (Personal Computer), a television receiver, etc. It can be applied to various devices such as devices. Further, the present embodiment can also be applied to an operation device that can be operated by a user.
