Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain easy presentation and sure discussion by providing the remote controller with plural means for executing the remote control of an electronic computer through wires or radio waves. CONSTITUTION:The remote controller is provided with a display screen 1, a CPU 2, a storage device 3, a signal receiving part 4, hard-writing tablets 5, signal generating parts 6, input pens 7, and liquid crystal displays 8 with touch panels. When a presenter inputs an instruction from one of the tablets 5 in which data or the like to be presented have been previously stored from the storage device 3 by means of the input pen 7 in the case of using the controller for a conference or the like, the inputted signal is transmitted from the signal generating part 6 to the signal receiving part 4 in the CPU 2 to start the CPU 2 and the data or the like to be presented stored in the device 3 are accessed and displayed on the screen 1. Thereby, other attendants can also display supplimentary explanations, graphics etc., on the same screen and discussion can be advanced on the screen.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Fields of Application] The present invention is applicable to, for example, a conference, etc. when participants operate the
This invention relates to a remote control device for a computer that allows discussion to be held while viewing a screen displayed on a display screen.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, for example, a presenter at a conference etc., as shown in Figure 3,
Generally, presentation materials are prepared in advance and copies are distributed, or presentations are made using an OHP or slide projector.

There is also a method of projecting the computer screen on a large display screen, but as shown in Figure 4, the operations on this screen are unilateral from the presenter to the attendees, and the number of operators is limited. It is something that

[Problem to be solved by the invention] In conventional presentations by presenters at conferences, etc., even if a computer screen is used as a display, the presentation is one-sided from the presenter to the attendees, and the display is only a one-sided presentation. It was an auxiliary tool for discussion. In addition, the number of people who can operate the computer is limited, and the locations where the computer can be operated are also limited, which is inconvenient.

The present invention was made to solve these problems, and aims to enable all attendees to perform operations on the screen.

[Means for Solving the Problems] A remote control device according to the present invention has an operating device for remotely controlling a computer and a display screen by wire or wirelessly, which is made small and lightweight so that it can be easily carried, and furthermore, it can be used for conferences. Multiple computers have been installed so that all attendees can easily access them.

[Function] The small and lightweight operating device allows the presenter to operate the computer from any position and control the display screen, and attendees can also use the same operating device to operate the computer from any position. Supplementary information, illustrations, etc. can be added to the information, making it possible to proceed with the discussion on the screen.

[Example] An embodiment of the present invention will be described below.

FIG. 1 shows a basic configuration diagram of the computer and remote control device of the present invention, and in the figure (1
) is the display screen, (2) is the CPU, (3) is the storage device, (4) is the signal receiver, (5) is the handwriting tablet, (6) is the signal emitter, (7) is the input pen, ( 8) is a liquid crystal display with a touch panel.

When using the device shown in Figure 1 at a conference, etc.,
The presenter can store presentation materials in advance in the storage device (3).

An input pen (7) from one of the handwriting tablets (5)
When a command is input by C, the input signal reaches the signal light receiving part of the CPU (2) from the signal emitting part (6), and
Start up the PU (2), call up the presentation materials stored in the storage device (3) on the display screen (1),
It can be displayed.

This series of operations can be performed equally from other handwriting tablets (5).

FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing variations of the screen displayed on the (5) liquid crystal display (8) of the handwriting tablet. The handwriting tablet (5) allows you to select from several input modes using the touch panel, allowing easy input. Moreover, FIGS. 3 and 4 are explanatory diagrams showing how the remote control device is used in the embodiment of the present invention. Depending on the scale of the conference, etc., the display (1) can be displayed as shown in FIG. or C as shown in Figure 5.
It is also possible to connect and display the PU (2) to a large display (9). In this case as well, the high-performance signal receiver (4) allows attendees of the conference to use the remote control device as if they were directly accessing the display screen.

"Effects of the Invention" As explained above, according to the present invention, one computer can be operated from multiple remote control means, so a new way of using a computer in meetings etc. has been created,
This allows for easier presentation and more reliable discussion.

[Brief explanation of drawings]

FIG. 1 is a basic configuration diagram of an electronic computer and remote control device according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing the screen of a handwriting tablet of the device, and FIGS. 3 and 4 are illustrations of an embodiment of the present invention. An explanatory diagram showing how the remote control device is used in the example, Figure 5 is an explanatory diagram showing how the presentation tool is used in a conventional conference, etc., and Figure 1 is a conventional presentation tool using a computer in a conference, etc. FIG. In the figure, (1) is the display screen, (2) is the CP
U, (3) is a storage device, (4) is a signal receiver, (5) is a handwriting tablet, (6) is a signal emitter, (7) is an input pen, and (8) is a liquid crystal display with a touch panel. . In each figure, the same reference numerals indicate the same or corresponding parts.
