　本発明は、タッチパネルにおけるタッチ操作によって選択値を変更及び決定するためのタッチ入力判定装置、タッチパネル入力装置、タッチ入力判定方法、及びタッチ入力判定プログラムに関する。 The present invention relates to a touch input determination device, a touch panel input device, a touch input determination method, and a touch input determination program for changing and determining a selection value by a touch operation on a touch panel.
　ユーザがタッチパネル上で行うタッチ操作（「タッチジェスチャ操作」とも言う）としては、タップ、ダブルタップ、タッチパネルを指でなぞる操作（指を滑らす操作）であるスワイプ、タッチパネル上で指を円を描くように動かす操作である回転操作（「回転ジェスチャ」とも言う）などがある。 Touch operations (also referred to as “touch gesture operations”) performed by the user on the touch panel include taps, double taps, swipes for touching the touch panel with fingers (sliding the finger), and drawing a finger on the touch panel. Rotation operation (also referred to as “rotation gesture”).
　例えば、特許文献１は、ユーザが、タッチパネルに表示された仮想音量ノブを制御するために２本の指で回転操作を行い、音量を増大又は減少させる方法を記載している。ユーザは仮想音量ノブを右回転させるように指で右回転操作を行うことで音量を増加させ、仮想音量ノブを左回転させるように指で左回転操作を行うことで音量を減少させる。また、特許文献２は、エレベータの行先階を示す数字をタッチパネル上で手書きで入力することで、行先階を指定する方法を記載している。 For example, Patent Document 1 describes a method in which a user performs a rotation operation with two fingers to control a virtual volume knob displayed on a touch panel, thereby increasing or decreasing the volume. The user increases the volume by performing a right rotation operation with a finger so as to rotate the virtual volume knob to the right, and decreases the volume by performing a left rotation operation with a finger so as to rotate the virtual volume knob to the left. Patent Document 2 describes a method of designating a destination floor by manually inputting a number indicating the destination floor of an elevator on a touch panel.

<< 1-1 >> Configuration FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram schematically showing the configuration of touch panel input device 1 (including touch input determination device 10) according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the touch panel input device 1 includes a touch input determination device 10 and a touch panel 20. The touch panel 20 includes an operation panel unit (user operation unit) 21 that receives a touch operation by a user, and a display panel unit (display device) 22 that is disposed on the operation panel unit 21 and provides an image such as an operation screen to the user. It has. The touch input determination device 10 is a device that can perform the touch input determination method according to the first embodiment. The touch input determination device 10 is a device that can execute the touch input determination program according to the first embodiment.
　実施の形態１では、本発明がエレベータシステムの行先階の登録のための行先階の登録装置に適用された場合を説明する。この場合、タッチパネル入力装置１は、エレベータのかご内に備えられ、エレベータの搭乗者であるユーザによって使用される。ただし、タッチパネル２０をエレベータのかご内に備え、タッチ入力判定装置１０をエレベータのかごの外の設備であるエレベータ制御装置に搭載してもよい。 Embodiment 1 describes a case where the present invention is applied to a destination floor registration apparatus for registration of a destination floor of an elevator system. In this case, the touch panel input device 1 is provided in an elevator car and is used by a user who is a passenger of the elevator. However, the touch panel 20 may be provided in the elevator car, and the touch input determination device 10 may be mounted on an elevator control device that is equipment outside the elevator car.
　先ず、実施の形態１に係るタッチ入力判定装置１０の概要を説明する。タッチ入力判定装置１０においては、先ず、操作判定部１２は、ユーザの操作手を決定するためのタッチパネル２０における第１のタッチ操作（例えば、タップ又はダブルタップ）に基づく信号Ａ１を受け取り、第１のタッチ操作に基づく信号から、選択値の変更のための第２のタッチ操作（回転操作）を行う操作手が右手又は左手のいずれであるかを示す操作手情報を決定する。 First, an outline of the touch input determination device 10 according to the first embodiment will be described. In the touch input determination device 10, first, the operation determination unit 12 receives a signal A1 based on a first touch operation (for example, tap or double tap) on the touch panel 20 for determining a user's operation hand, and first From the signal based on the touch operation, the operator information indicating whether the operator performing the second touch operation (rotation operation) for changing the selection value is the right hand or the left hand is determined.
　また、操作判定部１２は、外部装置であるエレベータ制御装置から、選択値（行先階である選択階）の変化方向が増加方向（上昇）又は減少方向（下降）のいずれであるかを示す変化方向情報Ａ２を受け取る。この変化方向情報Ａ２は、エレベータに搭乗する前の登場予定者がエレベータのかごに搭乗する前に、エレベータの乗り場に設置された上り釦又は下り釦の操作に対応する情報である。つまり、上り釦が押されたときには、変化方向は増加方向であり、下り釦が押されたときには、変化方向は減少方向である。 In addition, the operation determination unit 12 changes from the elevator control device, which is an external device, whether the change direction of the selection value (the selection floor that is the destination floor) is the increase direction (upward) or the decrease direction (downward). Direction information A2 is received. This change direction information A2 is information corresponding to the operation of the up button or the down button installed at the elevator platform before the prospective person before boarding the elevator boardes the elevator car. That is, when the up button is pressed, the change direction is an increase direction, and when the down button is pressed, the change direction is a decrease direction.
　操作判定部１２は、操作手情報が示す操作手が左手であり変化方向情報Ａ２が示す変化方向が増加方向である場合に、ユーザによる第２のタッチ操作（回転操作）が右回転の回転操作であるときの変化量である右回転変化量ＲＡＤＤを第１の負の値（例えば「－１」）に設定し、第２のタッチ操作が左回転の回転操作であるときの変化量である左回転変化量ＬＡＤＤを第１の正の値（例えば「＋１」）に設定する。ここで、変化量は、回転操作による回転角度が予め決められた角度に達する毎に選択値に加算される値である。また、操作判定部１２は、操作手情報が示す操作手が左手であり変化方向情報Ａ２が示す変化方向が減少方向である場合に、右回転変化量ＲＡＤＤを第２の正の値（例えば「＋１」）に設定し、左回転変化量ＬＡＤＤを第２の負の値に設定する（例えば「－１」）。 When the operation hand indicated by the operation hand information is the left hand and the change direction indicated by the change direction information A2 is the increase direction, the operation determination unit 12 performs a rotation operation in which the second touch operation (rotation operation) by the user is a clockwise rotation operation. The amount of change when the right rotation change amount RADD, which is the amount of change at the time of, is set to a first negative value (eg, “−1”) and the second touch operation is a left rotation operation. The left rotation change amount LADD is set to a first positive value (for example, “+1”). Here, the amount of change is a value added to the selection value every time the rotation angle by the rotation operation reaches a predetermined angle. In addition, the operation determination unit 12 sets the right rotation change amount RADD to a second positive value (for example, "" when the operating hand indicated by the operating hand information is the left hand and the changing direction indicated by the changing direction information A2 is the decreasing direction). +1 ") and the left rotation change amount LADD is set to a second negative value (for example," -1 ").
　また、操作判定部１２は、操作手情報が示す操作手が右手であり変化方向情報Ａ２が示す変化方向が増加方向である場合に、右回転変化量ＲＡＤＤを第３の正の値（例えば「＋１」）に設定し、左回転変化量ＬＡＤＤを第３の負の値（例えば「－１」）に設定する。操作判定部１２は、操作手情報が示す操作手が右手であり変化方向情報Ａ２が示す変化方向が減少方向である場合に、右回転変化量ＲＡＤＤを第４の負の値（例えば「－１」）に設定し、左回転変化量ＬＡＤＤを第４の正の値（例えば「＋１」）に設定する。なお、第１から第４の正の値は、互いに異なる値であってもよい。また、第１から第４の負の値は、互いに異なる値であってもよい。 In addition, the operation determination unit 12 sets the right rotation change amount RADD to a third positive value (for example, "" when the operating hand indicated by the operating hand information is the right hand and the changing direction indicated by the changing direction information A2 is the increasing direction). +1 ") and the left rotation change amount LADD is set to a third negative value (for example," -1 "). When the operating hand indicated by the operating hand information is the right hand and the changing direction indicated by the changing direction information A2 is the decreasing direction, the operation determining unit 12 sets the right rotation change amount RADD to a fourth negative value (for example, “−1”). )) And the left rotation change amount LADD is set to a fourth positive value (for example, “+1”). The first to fourth positive values may be different from each other. The first to fourth negative values may be different from each other.
　操作判定部１２は、第２のタッチ操作が右回転の回転操作であるときに、現在の選択値に右回転変化量ＲＡＤＤを加算して得られた値を変更後の新たな選択値とし、第２のタッチ操作が左回転の回転操作であるときに、現在の選択値に左回転変化量ＬＡＤＤを加算して得られた値を変更後の新たな選択値とする。 When the second touch operation is a clockwise rotation operation, the operation determination unit 12 sets a value obtained by adding the right rotation change amount RADD to the current selection value as a new selection value after the change, When the second touch operation is a left rotation operation, a value obtained by adding the left rotation change amount LADD to the current selection value is set as a new selection value after the change.
　操作判定部１２は、タッチパネル２０における第３のタッチ操作にしたがって（例えば、第３のタッチ操作がダブルタップであるときに）、変更後の新たな選択値を、現在の選択値に決定する。 The operation determination unit 12 determines the changed new selection value as the current selection value according to the third touch operation on the touch panel 20 (for example, when the third touch operation is a double tap).
　タッチパネル入力装置１又はタッチ入力判定装置１０を採用することにより、左利きのユーザは操作が容易な左回転の回転操作を行うが、操作がし難い右回転の回転操作を行う必要はほとんどない（ただし、選択値の変化方向を変更した場合には右回転の回転操作が必要になる場合がある）。また、右利きのユーザは操作が容易な右回転の回転操作を行うが、操作がし難い左回転の回転操作を行う必要はほとんどない（ただし、選択値の変化方向を変更した場合には左回転の回転操作が必要になる場合がある）。 By adopting the touch panel input device 1 or the touch input determination device 10, a left-handed user performs a left-rotation rotation operation that is easy to operate, but there is almost no need to perform a right-rotation rotation operation that is difficult to operate (however, If the change direction of the selection value is changed, a clockwise rotation operation may be required). In addition, right-handed users can easily perform right-handed rotation operations, but there is almost no need to perform left-handed rotation operations that are difficult to operate (however, if the change direction of the selected value is changed, Rotation operation of rotation may be necessary).
　次に、実施の形態１に係るタッチ入力判定装置１０の詳細を説明する。図１に示されるように、タッチ入力判定装置１０は、タッチ操作が行われたタッチパネル２０の操作パネル部２１から提供された操作情報Ａ０を受け取る操作情報入力部１１と、操作情報入力部１１から提供される操作情報Ａ０に基づく信号Ａ１を受け取り、信号Ａ１に基づいて選択値Ａ６を変更及び決定する操作判定部１２と、操作判定部１２から提供される通知情報Ａ３に基づく音声信号を音声出力装置（図２における４１）としてのスピーカに出力する通知部１８と、操作判定部１２から提供される画像情報Ａ４に基づく画像信号Ａ５をタッチパネル２０の表示パネル部（表示装置）２２に提供する表示制御部１９とを有している。 Next, details of the touch input determination device 10 according to the first embodiment will be described. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the touch input determination device 10 includes an operation information input unit 11 that receives operation information A0 provided from the operation panel unit 21 of the touch panel 20 on which a touch operation is performed, and an operation information input unit 11. An operation determination unit 12 that receives the signal A1 based on the provided operation information A0, changes and determines the selection value A6 based on the signal A1, and outputs an audio signal based on the notification information A3 provided from the operation determination unit 12 A notification unit 18 that outputs to a speaker as a device (41 in FIG. 2) and a display that provides an image signal A5 based on the image information A4 provided from the operation determination unit 12 to the display panel unit (display device) 22 of the touch panel 20 And a control unit 19.
　操作判定部１２は、操作種類判定部１３と、操作手決定部１４と、回転方向判定部１５と、選択値変更部１６と、選択値決定部１７とを有している。 The operation determination unit 12 includes an operation type determination unit 13, an operator determination unit 14, a rotation direction determination unit 15, a selection value change unit 16, and a selection value determination unit 17.
　操作情報入力部１１は、タッチパネル２０でユーザによって行われたタッチ操作に基づく操作情報Ａ０を受け取り、操作情報Ａ０に基づく信号Ａ１を操作判定部１２内の各機能ブロックに提供する。 The operation information input unit 11 receives operation information A0 based on a touch operation performed by a user on the touch panel 20, and provides a signal A1 based on the operation information A0 to each functional block in the operation determination unit 12.
　操作種類判定部１３は、操作情報入力部１１から提供された操作情報Ａ０に基づく信号Ａ１を受け取り、ユーザによって行われたタッチ操作の種類及びタッチ操作の操作量を判定する。タッチ操作の種類は、例えば、タップ、ダブルタップ、回転操作などである。ここで、タップとは、タッチパネル２０の操作画面を指で軽く叩く操作であり、ダブルタップとは、タッチパネル２０の操作画面を指で２回軽く叩く操作である。また、回転操作は、タッチパネル２０の操作画面上で２本の指を円を描くように動かす操作である。回転操作は、後述の図８（ａ）～（ｄ）に示される。また、タッチ操作がタップ又はダブルタップである場合における操作量は、例えば、タッチパネル２０に指が触れたときに２次元座標で表される範囲（接触している領域）である。回転操作の操作量は、例えば、タッチパネル２０上において円を描くように動かした指の回転角度である。この回転角度は、一連の回転操作における回転開始時における角度から回転終了時における角度までの変化量、すなわち、回転中心と回転開始点とを結ぶ第１の直線と回転中心と回転終了点とを結ぶ第２の直線とが成す角度である。なお、２本の指で行われる回転操作は、タッチパネル２０上で２本の指をそれぞれ異なる方向に移動させることで円を描く動作、又は、１本の指を円の中心位置で固定しながら、他方の指を移動させて円を描く動作である。 The operation type determination unit 13 receives the signal A1 based on the operation information A0 provided from the operation information input unit 11, and determines the type of touch operation performed by the user and the operation amount of the touch operation. Examples of the touch operation include a tap, a double tap, and a rotation operation. Here, the tap is an operation of tapping the operation screen of the touch panel 20 with a finger, and the double tap is an operation of tapping the operation screen of the touch panel 20 twice with a finger. The rotation operation is an operation for moving two fingers in a circle on the operation screen of the touch panel 20. The rotation operation is shown in FIGS. 8A to 8D described later. Further, the operation amount when the touch operation is a tap or a double tap is, for example, a range (a contacted area) represented by two-dimensional coordinates when a finger touches the touch panel 20. The operation amount of the rotation operation is, for example, the rotation angle of the finger moved to draw a circle on the touch panel 20. This rotation angle is the amount of change from the angle at the start of rotation to the angle at the end of rotation in a series of rotation operations, that is, the first straight line connecting the rotation center and the rotation start point, the rotation center, and the rotation end point. The angle formed by the second straight line to be connected. Note that the rotation operation performed with two fingers is an operation of drawing a circle by moving the two fingers in different directions on the touch panel 20, or while fixing one finger at the center position of the circle. The other finger is moved to draw a circle.
　操作手決定部１４は、タッチパネル２０の操作画面上でユーザによって行われたタッチ操作（操作手を決定するための第１のタッチ操作）に基づいて、以降のユーザのタッチ操作（第２のタッチ操作である回転操作）が右手又は左手のいずれによって行われるのか、すなわち、ユーザが回転操作に使用する操作手は、右手であるか、左手であるかを決定する。 Based on the touch operation performed by the user on the operation screen of the touch panel 20 (first touch operation for determining the operator), the operation hand determination unit 14 performs subsequent user touch operations (second touch). It is determined whether the rotation operation) is performed by the right hand or the left hand, that is, the operation hand used by the user for the rotation operation is the right hand or the left hand.
　回転方向判定部１５は、操作手決定部１４で決定した操作手が左手であるか右手であるかを示す操作手情報と、タッチパネル入力装置１の外部の機器又は設備から入力される選択値の変化方向を示す情報とから、ユーザが行う第２の操作である左回転の回転操作時の選択値変化量である左回転変化量ＬＡＤＤと右回転の回転操作時の選択値変化量である右回転変化量ＲＡＤＤとを決定する。実施の形態１においては、選択値の変化方向の情報とは、エレベータの乗場で指定した行先方向（上階又は下階）の情報である。また、左回転の回転操作時の選択値変化量である左回転変化量及び右回転の回転操作時の選択値変化量である右回転変化量とは、階数の変化量である。 The rotation direction determination unit 15 includes operating hand information indicating whether the operating hand determined by the operating hand determination unit 14 is a left hand or a right hand, and a selection value input from an external device or facility of the touch panel input device 1. From the information indicating the change direction, the left rotation change amount LADD that is the selection value change amount during the left rotation rotation operation that is the second operation performed by the user, and the right that is the selection value change amount during the right rotation operation. The rotational change amount RADD is determined. In the first embodiment, the information on the change direction of the selection value is information on the destination direction (upper floor or lower floor) designated at the elevator hall. Further, the left rotation change amount that is the selection value change amount during the left rotation operation and the right rotation change amount that is the selection value change amount during the right rotation operation are the change amounts of the ranks.
　選択値変更部１６は、操作種類判定部１３にて、第２のタッチ操作が回転操作である場合、回転操作が左回転であるか右回転であるかを判定し、現在の選択値に選択値変化量を加算することで、変更後の新たな選択値を取得する。実施の形態１において、選択値は、行先階数である。 When the second touch operation is a rotation operation, the selection value changing unit 16 determines whether the rotation operation is a left rotation or a right rotation and selects the current selection value. By adding the value change amount, a new selection value after the change is acquired. In the first embodiment, the selection value is the destination floor number.
　表示制御部１９は、選択値変更部１６にて、現在の選択値が変更後の新たな選択値に変更された場合、操作画面の表示を変更前の現在の選択値から変更後の新たな選択値に変更する。実施の形態１において、表示制御部１９は、タッチパネル２０及びエレベータの行先階を表示する液晶モニタなどに画像信号を送信する。 When the selection value changing unit 16 changes the current selection value to the new selection value after the change, the display control unit 19 changes the display on the operation screen from the current selection value before the change to a new one after the change. Change to selected value. In the first embodiment, the display control unit 19 transmits an image signal to a touch panel 20 and a liquid crystal monitor that displays a destination floor of the elevator.
　通知部１８は、選択値変更部１６によって現在の選択値が変更後の新たな選択値に変更されたときに、音声によって選択値を通知するための音声信号を音声出力装置（音声出力部）に送信する。また、通知部１８は、指による回転操作中に、回転操作を示す音（例えば、電話のダイヤルの回転音を模した音）を出力させるための音声信号を出力してもよい。 When the selection value changing unit 16 changes the current selection value to a new selection value after the change, the notification unit 18 outputs a voice signal for notifying the selection value by voice as a voice output device (voice output unit). Send to. Further, the notification unit 18 may output a sound signal for outputting a sound indicating the rotation operation (for example, a sound simulating the rotation sound of a telephone dial) during the rotation operation with a finger.
　選択値決定部１７は、操作種類判定部１３において操作情報入力部１１から入力された操作情報から、操作がダブルタップであった場合、選択値変更部１６で得られた変更後の新たな選択値を、新たな現在の選択値として決定する。実施の形態１においては、エレベータの選択階を行先階として決定する。 When the operation is a double tap from the operation information input from the operation information input unit 11 in the operation type determination unit 13, the selection value determination unit 17 performs a new selection after change obtained by the selection value change unit 16. The value is determined as the new current selection value. In the first embodiment, the selected floor of the elevator is determined as the destination floor.
　図２は、実施の形態１に係るタッチパネル入力装置１のハードウェア（Ｈ／Ｗ）構成を示す図である。タッチパネル２０は、複数の指の接触を検知し、操作情報（各指の識別情報、指の接触位置の座標情報、指の接触状態を示す情報など）を生成することができる。プロセッサ３１がメモリ３２に記憶されているソフトウェアであるプログラム（タッチ操作判定プログラム）を実行することにより、タッチ入力判定装置１０の各構成の機能が実現される。表示装置２２が、プロセッサ３１の命令に基づく動作を行うことにより、表示制御部１９が実現される。音声出力装置４１が、プロセッサ３１の命令に基づく動作を行うことにより、通知部１８が実現される。 FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a hardware (H / W) configuration of the touch panel input device 1 according to the first embodiment. The touch panel 20 can detect the contact of a plurality of fingers and generate operation information (identification information of each finger, coordinate information of a finger contact position, information indicating a finger contact state, etc.). When the processor 31 executes a program (touch operation determination program) that is software stored in the memory 32, the functions of the components of the touch input determination device 10 are realized. The display control unit 19 is realized by the display device 22 performing an operation based on an instruction of the processor 31.

　図４は、実施の形態１に係るタッチパネル入力装置１及びタッチ入力判定装置１０が行う処理を示すフローチャートである。 << 1-2 >> Operation FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing processing performed by the touch panel input device 1 and the touch input determination device 10 according to the first embodiment.
　図１及び図４に示されるように、先ず、図４のステップＳ１１において、操作手決定部１４は、ユーザが回転操作（第２のタッチ操作）に使用する操作手が右手であるか左手であるかを決定し、決定された操作手（右手又は左手）を示す通知情報を通知部１８に提供し、通知部１８から通知情報に基づく通知信号を音声出力装置４１に提供する。通知部１８は、音声出力装置４１のスピーカから、タッチ操作に関する情報のアナウンスを出力させる。 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, first, in step S <b> 11 of FIG. 4, the operation hand determination unit 14 uses the right hand or the left hand as the operation hand used by the user for the rotation operation (second touch operation). The notification information indicating the determined operation hand (right hand or left hand) is provided to the notification unit 18, and the notification signal based on the notification information is provided from the notification unit 18 to the audio output device 41. The notification unit 18 outputs an announcement of information related to the touch operation from the speaker of the audio output device 41.
　ステップＳ１１の処理は、図５を使って具体的に説明される。図５は、実施の形態１における操作手決定部１４が行う処理を示すフローチャートである。 The processing in step S11 will be specifically described with reference to FIG. FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing processing performed by the operator determination unit 14 in the first embodiment.
　先ず、通知部１８により、ユーザに対して操作手の指定方法を通知する（ステップＳ１１１）。例えば、通知部１８は、音声出力装置４１から、音声にて操作手の指定方法をアナウンスさせる。アナウンスの内容は、例えば、「操作する手を決定します。右手で操作したい場合は、タップして下さい。左手で操作したい場合は、ダブルタップして下さい。」である。ただし、操作手と操作手を決定するための操作方法との組合せは、上記の例に限定されない。例えば、右手で操作したい場合を、ダブルタップとし、左手で操作した場合を、タップとしてもよい。あるいは、操作手を決定するための操作方法として、タップ及びダブルタップ以外の操作を採用してもよい。 First, the notification unit 18 notifies the user of how to specify the operator (step S111). For example, the notification unit 18 causes the voice output device 41 to announce the operator designation method by voice. The contents of the announcement are, for example, “Determine the hand to operate. Tap if you want to operate with the right hand. Double tap if you want to operate with the left hand.” However, the combination of the operator and the operation method for determining the operator is not limited to the above example. For example, a case where operation is desired with the right hand may be a double tap, and a case where operation is performed with the left hand may be a tap. Or you may employ | adopt operations other than a tap and a double tap as an operation method for determining an operator.
　次に、図４のステップＳ１２において、操作情報入力部１１は、タッチパネル２０で行われたタッチ操作に基づく操作情報Ａ０を取得する。 Next, in step S <b> 12 of FIG. 4, the operation information input unit 11 acquires operation information A <b> 0 based on the touch operation performed on the touch panel 20.
　次に、図４のステップＳ１３において、操作種類判定部１３は、操作情報入力部１１から操作情報Ａ０に基づく信号Ａ１を受け取り、タッチ操作がタップであるか否かを判断する。 Next, in step S13 in FIG. 4, the operation type determination unit 13 receives the signal A1 based on the operation information A0 from the operation information input unit 11, and determines whether or not the touch operation is a tap.
　次に、操作情報Ａ０に基づく信号Ａ１からタッチ操作がタップであると判断した場合（ステップＳ１１３においてＹＥＳ）、操作手決定部１４は、操作手は右手である、と決定する（ステップＳ１１５）。 Next, when it is determined from the signal A1 based on the operation information A0 that the touch operation is a tap (YES in step S113), the operating hand determination unit 14 determines that the operating hand is the right hand (step S115).
　操作情報Ａ０に基づく信号Ａ１からタッチ操作がタップではないと判断した場合（ステップＳ１１３においてＮＯ）、操作種類判定部１３は、タッチ操作がダブルタップであるか否かを判断する（ステップＳ１１４）。 If it is determined from the signal A1 based on the operation information A0 that the touch operation is not a tap (NO in step S113), the operation type determination unit 13 determines whether the touch operation is a double tap (step S114).
　操作情報Ａ０に基づく信号Ａ１からタッチ操作がダブルタップであると判断した場合（ステップＳ１１４においてＹＥＳ）、操作手決定部１４は、操作手は左手である、と決定する（ステップＳ１１６）。 If it is determined from the signal A1 based on the operation information A0 that the touch operation is a double tap (YES in step S114), the operator determination unit 14 determines that the operator is a left hand (step S116).
　操作情報Ａ０に基づく信号Ａ１からタッチ操作がダブルタップではないと判断した場合（ステップＳ１１４においてＮＯ）、操作手決定部１４は、操作手は右手であると決定する（ステップＳ１１７）。 If it is determined from the signal A1 based on the operation information A0 that the touch operation is not a double tap (NO in step S114), the operating hand determination unit 14 determines that the operating hand is the right hand (step S117).
　最後に、通知部１８及び表示制御部１９の少なくとも一方は、ステップＳ１１５、ステップＳ１１６、ステップＳ１１７で決定した操作手をユーザに対して通知するため、音声信号又は画像信号を出力する（ステップＳ１１８）。例えば、通知部１８が音声出力装置から音声によるアナウンスをさせる。あるいは、表示制御部１９は、タッチパネル２０の操作画面に操作手が決定されたことを通知するメッセージを表示させてもよい。図６は、操作手を決定したことを通知するメッセージの表示例を示す図である。 Finally, at least one of the notification unit 18 and the display control unit 19 outputs an audio signal or an image signal to notify the user of the operator determined in step S115, step S116, and step S117 (step S118). . For example, the notification unit 18 makes a voice announcement from the voice output device. Alternatively, the display control unit 19 may display a message notifying that the operator has been determined on the operation screen of the touch panel 20. FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a display example of a message notifying that the operator has been determined.
　次に、図４のステップＳ１２において、回転方向判定部１５、操作手決定部１４にて決定した手の情報と選択値の変化方向の情報から回転操作の回転方向による選択値変化量を決定し、通知部１８にて音声により回転方向を通知する。 Next, in step S12 of FIG. 4, the selection value change amount according to the rotation direction of the rotation operation is determined from the hand information determined by the rotation direction determination unit 15 and the operation hand determination unit 14 and the change direction information of the selection value. The notification unit 18 notifies the rotation direction by voice.
　次に図７を使って本実施の形態の回転方向判定部１５の具体的な処理について説明する。図７は、実施の形態１の回転方向判定部の処理を示すフローチャートである。図８（ａ）～（ｄ）は、タッチパネル２０上における２本指による回転操作を示す図である。 Next, specific processing of the rotation direction determination unit 15 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating processing of the rotation direction determination unit according to the first embodiment. FIGS. 8A to 8D are diagrams showing a rotating operation with two fingers on the touch panel 20.
　先ず、操作手決定部１４で決定した操作手の情報から操作手が左手か否かを判断する（ステップＳ１２１）。 First, it is determined whether or not the operating hand is the left hand from the operating hand information determined by the operating hand determination unit 14 (step S121).
　次に、操作手が左手であった場合、選択値の変化方向が加算であるか減算であるかを判断する（ステップＳ１２２）。 Next, when the operating hand is the left hand, it is determined whether the change direction of the selection value is addition or subtraction (step S122).
　選択値の変化方向が加算の場合、右回転操作時の変化量である右回転変化量ＲＡＤＤを「－１」、左回転操作時の変化量である左回転変化量ＬＡＤＤを「－１」と決定し、決定された値を記憶部（例えば、メモリ３２）に記憶する（ステップＳ１２４）。 When the change direction of the selection value is addition, the right rotation change amount RADD that is the change amount during the right rotation operation is “−1”, and the left rotation change amount LADD that is the change amount during the left rotation operation is “−1”. The determined value is stored in the storage unit (for example, the memory 32) (step S124).
　選択値の変化方向が減算の場合、右回転操作時の変化量である右回転変化量ＲＡＤＤを「＋１」、左回転操作時の変化量である左回転変化量ＬＡＤＤを「－１」と決定し、決定された値を記憶部（例えば、メモリ３２）に記憶する（ステップＳ１２５）。 When the change direction of the selection value is subtraction, the right rotation change amount RADD that is the change amount during the right rotation operation is determined as “+1”, and the left rotation change amount LADD that is the change amount during the left rotation operation is determined as “−1”. Then, the determined value is stored in the storage unit (for example, the memory 32) (step S125).
　次に、操作手が右手であった場合、選択値の変化方向が加算であるか減算であるかを判断する（ステップＳ１２３）。 Next, when the operating hand is the right hand, it is determined whether the change direction of the selection value is addition or subtraction (step S123).
　選択値の変化方向が加算の場合、右回転操作時の変化量である右回転変化量ＲＡＤＤを「＋１」、左回転操作時の変化量である左回転変化量ＬＡＤＤを「－１」と決定し、決定された値を記憶部（例えば、メモリ３２）に記憶する（ステップＳ１２６）。 When the change direction of the selection value is addition, the right rotation change amount RADD that is the change amount during the right rotation operation is determined as “+1”, and the left rotation change amount LADD that is the change amount during the left rotation operation is determined as “−1”. Then, the determined value is stored in the storage unit (for example, the memory 32) (step S126).
　選択値の変化方向が減算の場合、右回転操作時の変化量である右回転変化量ＲＡＤＤを「－１」、左回転操作時の変化量である左回転変化量ＬＡＤＤを「＋１」と決定し、決定された値を記憶部（例えば、メモリ３２）に記憶する（ステップＳ１２７）。 When the change direction of the selection value is subtraction, the right rotation change amount RADD that is the change amount during the right rotation operation is determined as “−1”, and the left rotation change amount LADD that is the change amount during the left rotation operation is determined as “+1”. Then, the determined value is stored in the storage unit (for example, the memory 32) (step S127).
　例えば、操作手決定部１４で決定した操作手が右手であり、選択値の変化方向であるエレベータの行先方向が上階である場合、操作手決定部１４は、左回転変化量ＬＡＤＤが「－１」、右回転変化量ＲＡＤＤが「＋１」と決定する。 For example, when the operator determined by the operator determination unit 14 is the right hand and the destination direction of the elevator, which is the change direction of the selection value, is the upper floor, the operator determination unit 14 determines that the left rotation change amount LADD is “− 1 ”and the right rotation change amount RADD is determined to be“ +1 ”.
　次に、図４のステップＳ１３において、操作情報入力部１１がタッチパネル２０から操作情報Ａ０を取得する。 Next, in step S <b> 13 of FIG. 4, the operation information input unit 11 acquires operation information A <b> 0 from the touch panel 20.
　次に、図４のステップＳ１４において、操作種類判定部１３は、操作情報入力部１１から取得した操作情報Ａ０に基づく信号Ａ１から、操作の種類及び操作量を判定する。 Next, in step S14 of FIG. 4, the operation type determination unit 13 determines the type of operation and the operation amount from the signal A1 based on the operation information A0 acquired from the operation information input unit 11.
　次に、図４のステップＳ１５において、操作の種類が回転操作である場合、処理はステップＳ１６へ進む。操作の種類が、回転操作で無い場合、処理はステップＳ１８へ進む。 Next, in step S15 of FIG. 4, when the type of operation is a rotation operation, the process proceeds to step S16. If the type of operation is not a rotation operation, the process proceeds to step S18.
　図４のステップＳ１６では、選択値変更部１６が、回転方向判定部１５にて決定した回転操作の回転方向に応じて現在の選択値を変更するとともに表示制御部１９に対して表示装置２０４のタッチパネル２０の操作画面に表示されている現在の選択値を変更するように指示する。図９は、実施の形態１の現在の選択階を表示しているタッチパネル２０の操作画面の例を示す図である。 In step S <b> 16 of FIG. 4, the selection value changing unit 16 changes the current selection value in accordance with the rotation direction of the rotation operation determined by the rotation direction determination unit 15, and the display device 204 has the display device 204. An instruction is given to change the current selection value displayed on the operation screen of the touch panel 20. FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an example of an operation screen of the touch panel 20 displaying the currently selected floor according to the first embodiment.
　次に、実施の形態１における選択値変更部１６の処理について説明する。図１０は、実施の形態１における選択値変更部１６の処理を示すフローチャートである。 Next, processing of the selection value changing unit 16 in the first embodiment will be described. FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing processing of the selection value changing unit 16 in the first embodiment.
　先ず、選択値変更部１６は、操作種類判定部１３から得られた回転操作（第２の操作）の方向が右回転であるか否かを判定し（ステップＳ１６１）、回転操作の方向が右回転であれば（ステップＳ１６１においてＹＥＳ）、処理をステップＳ１６２に進め、回転操作の方向が左回転であれば（ステップＳ１６１においてＮＯ）、処理をステップＳ１６３に進める。 First, the selection value changing unit 16 determines whether or not the direction of the rotation operation (second operation) obtained from the operation type determination unit 13 is right rotation (step S161), and the direction of the rotation operation is right. If it is rotation (YES in step S161), the process proceeds to step S162. If the direction of the rotation operation is left rotation (NO in step S161), the process proceeds to step S163.
　回転操作の方向が右回転であれば（ステップＳ１６１においてＹＥＳ）、現在の選択値ＳＥＬＦＬＲに右回転変化量ＲＡＤＤを加算することで、変更後の現在の選択値（新たな選択値）ＳＥＬＦＬＲを算出する（ステップＳ１６２）。例えば、現在の選択値ＳＥＬＦＬＲが「１４」であり、右回転変化量ＲＡＤＤが「＋１」であるならば、算出された変更後の現在の選択値ＳＥＬＦＬＲは「１５」となる。現在の選択値が現在の選択階であり、右回転変化量ＲＡＤＤを右回転操作時の階数変化量とすると、現在の選択階が「１４階」であり、右回転操作を行うと、更新後の現在の選択階が「１５階」になる。 If the direction of the rotation operation is right rotation (YES in step S161), the current selection value (new selection value) SELFLR after the change is calculated by adding the right rotation change amount RADD to the current selection value SELFLR. (Step S162). For example, if the current selection value SELFLR is “14” and the right rotation change amount RADD is “+1”, the calculated current selection value SELFLR after the change is “15”. If the current selected value is the current selected floor, and the right rotation change amount RADD is the floor change amount during the right rotation operation, the current selected floor is “14th floor”. The currently selected floor is “15th floor”.
　回転操作の方向が左回転であれば（ステップＳ１６１においてＮＯ）、現在の選択値ＳＥＬＦＬＲに左回転変化量ＬＡＤＤを加算することで、変更後の現在の選択値（新たな選択値）ＳＥＬＦＬＲを算出する（ステップＳ１６３）。例えば、現在の選択値ＳＥＬＦＬＲが「１４」であり、左回転変化量ＬＡＤＤが「－１」であるならば、算出された変更後の現在の選択値ＳＥＬＦＬＲは「１３」となる。現在の選択値が現在の選択階であり、左回転変化量ＬＡＤＤを左回転操作時の階数変化量とすると、現在の選択階が「１４階」であり、左回転操作を行うと、変更後の現在の選択階が「１３階」になる。 If the direction of the rotation operation is left rotation (NO in step S161), the current selection value (new selection value) SELFLR after the change is calculated by adding the left rotation change amount LADD to the current selection value SELFLR. (Step S163). For example, if the current selection value SELFLR is “14” and the left rotation change amount LADD is “−1”, the calculated current selection value SELFLR after the change is “13”. If the current selection value is the current selection floor, and the left rotation change amount LADD is the floor change amount during the left rotation operation, the current selection floor is “14th floor”. The currently selected floor is “13th floor”.
　図４のステップＳ１８では、タッチ操作の種類がダブルタップである場合（ステップＳ１８においてＹＥＳ）、処理はステップＳ１９に進み、操作の種類がダブルタップでない場合（ステップＳ１８においてＮＯ）、処理はステップＳ１３に戻り、再び、操作情報を取得する。 In step S18 of FIG. 4, if the type of touch operation is a double tap (YES in step S18), the process proceeds to step S19. If the type of operation is not a double tap (NO in step S18), the process proceeds to step S13. Return to, and obtain the operation information again.
　図４のステップＳ１９では、現在の選択値を決定値として決定する。例えば、エレベータの行先階の登録装置のタッチパネル上でダブルタップを行うことにより、現在の選択階が行先階として決定される。 In step S19 in FIG. 4, the current selection value is determined as the determination value. For example, the current selected floor is determined as the destination floor by performing a double tap on the touch panel of the registration device on the destination floor of the elevator.
　最後に、図４のステップＳ２０では、表示制御部１９がタッチパネル２０の表示パネル部２２の操作画面に決定値が決定したことを表示するとともに、通知部１８が音声出力装置３３を使って決定値が決定したことを音声により通知する。図１１は、実施の形態１の決定値が決定後のタッチパネル２０の操作画面の表示例を示す図である。 Finally, in step S <b> 20 of FIG. 4, the display control unit 19 displays that the determined value has been determined on the operation screen of the display panel unit 22 of the touch panel 20, and the notification unit 18 uses the audio output device 33 to determine the determined value. Is notified by voice. FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the operation screen of the touch panel 20 after the determined value of the first embodiment is determined.
《１－３》効果
　以上に説明したように、実施の形態１によれば、例えば、エレベータの行先階の登録装置において、操作手（左手又は右手）とユーザが望んだ行先階の方向（選択値の変化方向）とから、ユーザの操作手が回転操作し易い方向と、行先階の方向を一致させることにより、ユーザが回転操作で感じる不便さを軽減することができるという効果がある。つまり、実施の形態１によれば、左利きのユーザは操作が容易な左回転の回転操作を行うが、操作がし難い右回転の回転操作を行う必要はほとんどなく、また、右利きのユーザは操作が容易な右回転の回転操作を行うが、操作がし難い左回転の回転操作を行う必要はほとんどなくなる。 << 1-3 >> Effect As described above, according to the first embodiment, for example, in the registration device on the destination floor of an elevator, the direction of the operation floor (left hand or right hand) and the destination floor desired by the user (selection) The direction in which the user's operating hand can easily perform the rotation operation and the direction of the destination floor are made to coincide with each other based on the change direction of the value, thereby reducing the inconvenience that the user feels due to the rotation operation. That is, according to the first embodiment, a left-handed user performs a left-handed rotation operation that is easy to operate, but there is almost no need to perform a right-handed rotation operation that is difficult to perform, and a right-handed user Although the rotation operation of the right rotation that is easy to operate is performed, there is almost no need to perform the rotation operation of the left rotation that is difficult to operate.
　また、選択階を変更中又は決定後に音声により通知を行うことにより、操作画面を見なくとも操作が可能となり、他の作業に集中しているユーザ又は視覚障がい者による操作が可能であるという効果がある。 In addition, by performing notification by voice while changing the selected floor or after determination, the operation can be performed without looking at the operation screen, and operation by a user who is concentrated on other work or a visually impaired person is possible. There is.
