It is a figure which shows an example of the position of the selection part 304 in a modification.

  An embodiment for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the display control device 1 includes a receiving unit 111A, a point image display unit 111B, a selection image display unit 111C, and a moving unit 111D. Further, the display control device 1 may further include a determination unit 111E. The display control device 1 is a device that moves together with a moving body.

  The accepting unit 111A accepts an operator's operation on the operation unit attached to the handle of the moving body. The moving body is a vehicle whose direction is changed by a handle such as an automobile, a bicycle, an aircraft, and a ship. The operation unit is, for example, a pointing device such as a touch pad, joystick, cross key, or pointing stick.

  The point image display means 111B displays a point image representing a point on the map displayed on the screen. A point image is, for example, an icon representing a logo mark of a store when the point is a store (a department store, a convenience store, a supermarket, a restaurant, or the like).

  The selection image display unit 111C detects a preset operation of the operator, and displays a selection image used for selecting a point on the map on the screen. The operator's action set in advance includes, for example, an action of directing a face or line of sight to the displayed spot image, an action of moving the spot image, and the like.

  The moving unit 111D moves the position of the screen of the point image or the position of the selected image according to the operation received by the receiving unit 111A.

  Thereby, it is not necessary to perform an operation on the operation unit by removing the hand from the handle, and a selection image used for selection of a point on the map is displayed more than necessary, and the safe driving of the operator is not hindered.

  When the display control apparatus 1 further includes a determination unit 111E, the determination unit 111E may determine a selection candidate point that is a candidate for selection based on the positional relationship between the point image and the selection image. . As a result, the operator attaches an operation to the handle to move the point image or the selection unit so that the position relationship between the point image representing the point to be selected and the selected image becomes the selection candidate point. By performing the operation on the selected operation unit, a point to be selected can be set as a selection candidate point. When the selection candidate point is determined and the display control device 1 accepts a further selection confirming operation for selecting the selection candidate point by the operator, the display control device 1 sets the selection candidate point as a selection target point. It is preferable to determine.

  Furthermore, the moving unit 111D may move and display the point image on the map together with the map in accordance with the operation received by the receiving unit 111A, and may not move the selected image. In this case, the operator performs an operation of moving the map image together with the map so that the position relationship between the point image representing the point to be selected and the selection image on the screen is a candidate point for selection. Thus, a point that is desired to be selected can be set as a selection candidate point.

  Furthermore, the selection image indicates a selection area which is a partial area on the screen, and the determination unit 111E, when the point image is included in the selection area according to the operation received by the reception unit 111A, The point represented by may be determined as a selection candidate point. In addition, when the point image is included in the selected area, the center (or the center of gravity) of the point image may be included in the selected area, or a predetermined ratio or more of pixels representing the point image is included. It may be a case. In this case, the operator can make a point to be selected as a selection candidate point by performing an operation so that a point image representing a point to be selected on the screen is included in the selection region.

  Furthermore, the selected image display means 111C may display a selected image having a size not including a plurality of spot images at the same time according to the scale of the displayed map. Thereby, it is possible to prevent a plurality of spot images from being simultaneously included in the selection area and a plurality of spots from becoming selection candidate spots.

  Furthermore, the spot image display means 111B changes the scale to a scale at which a plurality of spot images are not included in the selection area simultaneously when a plurality of spot images are included in the selection area at the scale of the displayed map. It is good as well. As a result, it is possible to prevent a plurality of spot images from being simultaneously included in the selection area and a plurality of spots to be selection candidate spots.

  Furthermore, when a plurality of spot images are included in the selected area in response to the operation received by the receiving means 111A, the spot image display means 111B displays each corresponding image corresponding to each spot image included in the selected area. The moving means 111D moves the position of the screen of the corresponding image or the position of the selection area according to the further operation by the operator (the further operation accepted by the accepting means 111A). When the corresponding image is included in the selection area, the determining unit 111E may determine the point represented by the corresponding image as the selection candidate point. Thereby, the number of corresponding images corresponding to the spot images included in the selection area can be narrowed down.

  Furthermore, when the operation unit is attached to any part of the right half of the handle when the handle is not cut, the selected image may be arranged in the right half of the screen. As shown in FIG. 2, a touch pad T that is an operation unit is provided on the handle H. When the operator who is a driver operates the touch pad T with a finger of the right hand (for example, a thumb or an index finger), It is thought that the operation to move in the direction is easy. Therefore, it is preferable that the operator can easily bring the point image closer to the selection unit by arranging the selection unit in the right half area of the screen corresponding to the right direction that is easy for the operator to operate. In this case, the operator can operate the operation unit in the right direction so that the point represented by the point image can be set as the selection candidate point, and the operation becomes easy. Similarly, when the operation unit is attached to any part of the left half of the handle when the handle is not cut, the selected image may be positioned in the left half of the screen.

  Furthermore, the point represented by the point image may be a point related to the operator. In this case, a point of interest to the operator can be presented. The point related to the operator is determined by the display control device 1 or another device by a conventionally known method. The point related to the operator may be a point on the route along which the operator moves. In addition, when the left-hand traffic is set in advance as a road on which the mobile body moves, the point on the route is preferably the left-hand point on the route, and the right-hand traffic as the road on which the mobile body moves. Is set, it is preferable that the point is on the right side of the route.

  Furthermore, the spot image display 111B may display a preset number of spot images. In this case, many point images are displayed, and it is possible to prevent the operator from being confused as to which direction image should be moved in which positional relationship with the selection unit. Further, in order to appropriately move a point image representing a point to be selected in a positional relationship with the selected image (if a lot of point images are displayed, an unintended point may become a selection candidate point. ) Since the operator is not concentrated on the operation, the concentration on the driving can be maintained.

  Furthermore, the point image display means 111B may display the point image on a map including the point where the moving body is moving. In this case, the operator can set a point near the current location as a selection candidate point.

  Next, specific examples corresponding to the above-described embodiments will be described.

  Examples will be described with reference to FIGS. In addition, the Example described below is an Example at the time of applying this invention to the vehicle-mounted navigation apparatus NV (an example of a "display control apparatus". Hereinafter, it may be called "the navigation apparatus NV"). Further, the navigation device NV is connected to the touch pad T attached to the handle shown in FIG. 2 (the handle of the automobile in the present embodiment) by wire or wireless, and accepts the driver's operation on the touch pad T. That is, the touch pad T is one of the input devices of the in-vehicle navigation device NV.

[1. Overview of navigation device NV]
The navigation device NV according to the present embodiment has an estimation function for estimating a destination, a stop-off place, and a point of interest to which the vehicle driver is heading. In the estimation function, the driver's past driving history, the driver's action taken by the camera installed in the passenger compartment, and the driver's biological information (body temperature, blood pressure, heart rate, etc.) acquired by the biosensor Is used.

  The navigation device NV narrows down a plurality of points estimated by the estimation function according to a predetermined narrowing condition, and displays a point icon representing the point on a map on the screen. As a predetermined narrowing-down condition, for example, when the estimated plurality of points are arranged in an arbitrary arrangement order (for example, in the order of the number of visits by the driver), the condition is the top n cases, or the predetermined order or more. There are some conditions.

  The navigation device NV has a display function for displaying a map or the like on a display and a selection candidate point determination function. Specifically, the navigation device NV displays a map on the display screen 300 as shown in FIG. In addition, the navigation device NV is a point icon 301A or 301B (a point icon is collectively referred to as a point icon 301) that represents a point estimated by the estimation function on the map and that has been narrowed down by a predetermined narrowing condition. In some cases, the frame image 302 is displayed. The frame image 302 is fixedly displayed on the screen 300 and does not move by a driver's operation on the touch pad T. On the other hand, the point icon 301 moves together with the map by an operation on the touch pad T.

  The position where the frame image 302 is displayed may be any position within the screen 300. When the touch pad T is provided as shown in FIG. 2, the frame image 302 is preferably arranged in the right half area of the screen 300 so that the operator can easily operate. Further, the frame image 301 may be displayed at the same time as the point icon 301 is displayed, or after the point icon 301 is displayed, a preset operation related to the displayed point icon 301 is performed. It may be displayed when a hand action (sometimes referred to as “related action”) is detected. The driver's action set in advance in relation to the spot icon 301 is, for example, an action of turning a face or line of sight toward the displayed spot icon 301 or an action of moving the spot icon 301 (for example, a touch pad). For example, an operation of touching T). These operations are detected by an image photographed by a camera installed in the passenger compartment or the touch pad T. Thus, by displaying the frame image 302 according to the driver's action, the frame image 302 is displayed only when the driver is willing to select a point, such as when the driver is interested in the point indicated by the point icon. Can be made. Thereby, since the unnecessary frame image 302 is not displayed on the screen 300, the driver can concentrate on driving.

  The frame image 302 becomes a target when the point icon 301 is moved. When the point icon 301 is included in the area on the screen 300 indicated by the frame image 302, the navigation device NV selects the point represented by the point icon 301. It is determined as a selection candidate point that is an object candidate (hereinafter, an area indicated by the frame image 302 (an area surrounded by the frame image 302) is referred to as a “selected area”).

  The frame image 302 may be in any form as long as it represents a selection area. As shown in FIG. 3, when the selected area is represented by a dotted line or a line, the color and density of the line are not limited (the line may be translucent).

  As illustrated in FIG. 4, when the navigation device NV determines that the spot icon 301 </ b> A is included in the selection area represented by the frame image 302, the navigation device NV changes the display mode of the spot icon 301. For example, the navigation device NV displays the point icon 301A in an enlarged manner, changes the color, or blinks. Accordingly, the driver can recognize that the point represented by the point icon 301A has been determined as the selection candidate point. When the navigation device NV receives a further selection confirmation operation (for example, an operation of tapping the touch pad T) by the driver on the touch pad T in a state where the selection candidate point is determined, the navigation device NV selects the selection candidate point. Decide on the target point. Note that the navigation device NV may guide the route by setting the determined selection target point as a destination or stopover.

[3. Example of operation of navigation device NV]
Next, an operation example of the selection point determination process by the navigation device NV will be described using the flowchart of FIG. FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the selection spot determination process.

  First, the control unit 211 of the navigation device NV displays a map including the current position of the vehicle on which the navigation device NV is mounted on the display 214c. (Step S11). Next, the control unit 211 estimates the driver's destination or stopover by using the estimation function (step S12). Next, the control unit 211 narrows down the destination or stop-off place estimated in the process in step S12 based on the above-described predetermined narrow-down condition, and sets it as a destination candidate place or drop-in candidate place (step S13). Next, the control part 211 displays the point icon 301 which respectively shows a destination candidate place or a stopover candidate place on a map (step S14). However, if there is a destination candidate place or a drop-in candidate place outside the area displayed in the map screen, the point icon 301 is displayed when the map is scrolled and the area enters the screen. Or it is good also as changing the scale of a map and displaying the point icon 301 showing all the destination candidate places or drop-in candidate places.

  Next, the control unit 211 displays the related operation (the driver's operation set in advance in relation to the point icon 301) within a predetermined time (for example, within 10 seconds) after displaying the point icon 301 in the process of step S14. ) Is detected (step S15). If the control unit 211 determines that the related operation has not been detected within the predetermined time (step S15: NO), the control unit 211 proceeds to the process at step S12. On the other hand, when it is determined that the related motion is detected within the predetermined time (step S15: YES), the control unit 211 displays the frame image 302 on the display 214c (step S16).

  Next, the control unit 211 moves the point icon 301 (and the map) within a predetermined time (for example, within 5 seconds) after displaying the frame image 302 in the process of step S16 (tracing the touch pad T). It is determined whether or not (operation) has been detected (step S17). When it is determined that the moving operation for moving the spot icon 301 (and the map) is not detected within a predetermined time (step S17: NO), the control unit 211 hides the frame image 302 (step S18). The process proceeds to step S12. On the other hand, when the control unit 211 determines that a moving operation for moving the point icon 301 (and the map) is detected within a predetermined time (step S17: YES), the control unit 211 moves the map and the point icon 301 according to the moving operation. It is displayed (step S19).

  Next, the control unit 211 determines whether or not the single spot icon 301 is included in the selection region represented by the frame image 302 (step S20). When the control unit 211 determines that the one spot icon 301 is not included in the selection region represented by the frame image 302 (step S20: NO), the control unit 211 proceeds to the process of step S17. On the other hand, when the control unit 211 determines that the one spot icon 301 is included in the selection region represented by the frame image 302 (step S20: YES), the control unit 211 selects the spot represented by the one spot icon 301. The candidate point is determined and the one point icon 301 is enlarged and displayed (an example of a change in display mode) (step S21).

  Next, whether or not the selection confirmation operation (operation for tapping the touch pad T) is detected within a predetermined time (for example, within 3 seconds) after the point icon 301 is enlarged and displayed in the process of step S21. Is determined (step S22). If the control unit 211 determines that the selection confirmation operation has not been detected within a predetermined time after the enlarged display of the point icon 301 (step S22: NO), the control unit 211 proceeds to the process of step S18. On the other hand, when the control unit 211 determines that the selection confirmation operation is detected within a predetermined time after the enlarged display of the point icon 301 (step S22: YES), the control unit 211 determines the selection candidate point as the selected point (step S22). S23), the selected point determination process is terminated.

  As described above, the navigation device NV (an example of “display control device”) according to the present embodiment has the control unit 211 (“accepting unit”, “point image display unit”, “selected image display unit”, “movement”). An example of “means” accepts an operation of a driver (an example of “operator”) on a touch pad T (an example of “operation unit”) attached to a handle H of an automobile (an example of “moving body”); A frame image 302 is displayed when a map is displayed on the screen 300 of the display 214c, a point icon 301 representing a point is displayed on the map, and a related action (an example of “preset operator action”) is detected. (An example of a “selected image used for selecting a point on the map”) is further displayed on the screen 300, and the position of the point icon 301 on the screen 300 is moved in accordance with the accepted operation.

  Therefore, according to the navigation device NV according to the present embodiment, it is not necessary to perform the operation on the touch pad T by releasing the hand from the handle H, and the frame image 302 on the map is displayed more than necessary so that the driver can drive safely. Will not be disturbed.

  The control unit 211 (an example of “determination unit”) determines a selection candidate point that is a candidate for selection based on the positional relationship between the point icon 300 and the frame image 302 on the screen 300. Accordingly, the driver performs an operation of moving the point icon so that the position on the screen 300 of the point icon 301 representing the point to be selected and the frame image 302 is a selection candidate point. By performing the operation on the touch pad T attached to the handle H, a point to be selected can be set as a selection candidate point.

  In addition, the destination / stop-by place estimated in the process of step S12 (an example of “a point represented by a point image”) is a point related to the driver based on the driver's past travel history and the like. This makes it possible to present points of interest to the driver. The stop-by location may be a point on the route where the driver moves, and if the left-side traffic is set in advance as the road on which the vehicle moves, Is preferred. As a result, a point where the driver can easily stop can be presented, and the convenience of the driver is improved.

  Further, the control unit 211 displays a point icon 301 on a map including a point where the vehicle is moving at that time. In this case, the driver can set a point near the current location as a selection candidate point.

  In the present embodiment, the destination candidate place / stop candidate place narrowed down with the predetermined narrowing condition in the process of step S13 is presented, but the number of point icons 301 to be displayed is limited by the predetermined narrowing condition. A preset number of point icons 301 may be displayed. In this case, many point icons 301 are displayed, and it is possible to prevent the driver from being confused as to which point icon 301 should be moved into the selected region. Moreover, in order to move the point icon 301 representing the point to be selected to be included in the selection area (when many point icons 301 are displayed, the point represented by the unintended point icon 301 becomes the selection candidate point. Since the driver does not concentrate on the operation for moving the point icon 301 to the driver, the concentration on driving can be maintained.

[4. Modified example]
Next, a modification of the above embodiment will be described. Note that the modifications described below can be combined as appropriate.

[4.1. Modification 1]
In the above embodiment, the map and the spot icon 301 are moved according to the operation on the touch pad T. Alternatively, the frame image 302 representing the selected area may be moved according to the operation on the touch pad T. Good.

[4.2. Modification 2]
The control unit 211 may display a frame image 302 indicating a selection area having a size that does not include a plurality of spot icons 301 at the same time, according to the scale of the displayed map. In this case, a plurality of point icons 301 are simultaneously included in the selection region, and a plurality of points can be prevented from becoming selection candidate points.

[4.3. Modification 3]
When the plurality of spot icons 301 are simultaneously included in the selection area at the scale of the displayed map, the control unit 211 may change the scale to a scale at which the plurality of spot icons 301 are not included in the selection area at the same time. Good. Thereby, it is possible to prevent a plurality of spot icons 301 from being included in the selection region at the same time and a plurality of spots to be selection candidate spots.

[4.4. Modification 4]
When the control unit 211 moves the map and the spot icon 301 in accordance with the operation of the driver, and when a plurality of spot icons 301 are included in the selected area, each spot included in the selected area as shown in FIG. The corresponding images 303A and 303B corresponding to the icons 301A and 302A are displayed outside the selection area, and the positions of the corresponding images 303A and 303B on the screen 300 are moved according to further operations by the driver. When 303B is included in the selection area, the point represented by the included corresponding images 303A and 303B may be determined as a selection candidate point. Thereby, the number of corresponding images 303A and 303B corresponding to the spot icons 301A and 301B included in the selection area can be narrowed down.

[4.5. Modification 5]
When the distance between the spot icon 301 and the selection area on the screen 300 is shorter than the point in time when the spot icon 301 is displayed by the received operation, the control unit 211 determines the spot represented by the spot icon as a selection candidate spot. It is good to do. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the distance between the point icon 301 and the selected area (the distance between the center (center of gravity) of the selected area and the center (center of gravity) of the point icon 301) is the time when the point icon 301 is initially displayed. Thus, when approaching a predetermined ratio or more, the point represented by the point image may be determined as the selection candidate point. Further, when the number of pixels corresponding to the distance between the spot icon 301 and the selection area is equal to or less than a predetermined pixel, the spot represented by the spot icon 301 may be determined as a selection candidate spot. That is, in the modification, the selection candidate spot can be determined even if the spot icon 301 is not included in the selection area. In this case, the driver can make the point to be selected as a selection candidate point by performing an operation so that the distance between the point icon 301 representing the point to be selected on the screen 300 and the selection area is reduced.

[4.6. Modification 6]
In the above embodiment, the selection candidate point that is the candidate for selection is determined based on the positional relationship between the selection area represented by the point icon 301 and the frame image 302 on the screen 300, but instead of the selection area, a selection candidate is selected. The unit 304 may be set. The selection unit 304 is formed by at least a part of the edge of the screen 300. In the example of FIG. 9, a linear selection unit 304 is set at the upper right edge of the screen 300. Note that one or more edges of the screen 300 may be set in the selection unit 304. In this case, when it is determined that the point icon 301A has moved and touched the selection unit 304 by an operation on the touch pad T, the control unit 211 determines the point represented by the point icon 301A as a selection candidate point. . Further, as described in Modification 5 above, when it is determined that the location icon 301A has moved and the distance between the location icon 301A and the selection unit 304 has decreased, the location represented by the location icon 301A is determined as a selection candidate location. It is good.
