<the 2 embodiment 〉
Fig. 5 is the figure of structure of thepicture display device 2 of expression the 2nd embodiment.The basic structure of thepicture display device 2 of the 2nd embodiment is identical with the picture display device 1 of the 1st embodiment.On thepicture display device 2 of the 2nd embodiment, connected touch pad ( Star チ パ Star De) 30, to replace operating rod 20.In the 2nd embodiment, picture controlpart 12 carries out picture control according to the operation information that sends from touch pad 30.The following describes the control of the picture controlpart 12 of the 2nd embodiment.
At first, before explanation picture controlpart 12,touch pad 30 is describedearlier.Touch pad 30 is by retouch the equipment that touch pad comes input information of drawing with finger.In the present embodiment, adopted according to the pressure that refers to touch pad of letting go and detected mobile pressuresensitive touch pad 30, finger position has been detected, be transformed into inputvalue.Touch pad 30 is retouched expression direction of drawing and the signal (operation information) of retouching the speed of drawing and is sent to picturedisplay device 2 totouch pad 30.
The picture controlpart 12 of the 2nd embodiment then is described.Picture control part 12 has such function, promptly according to the operation information that receives fromtouch pad 30,touch pad 30 is being retouched on the direction of drawing, make picture show with retouch the corresponding speed of the speed of drawing and roll.
And picture controlpart 12 operation informations according to the past of being imported that operation information and RAM14 stored carry out the control of convergent-divergent rate.Specifically, retouching (hereinafter referred to as input repeatedly) under the situation of drawingtouch pad 30 on the identical direction repeatedly, picture controlpart 12 dwindles processing.At this moment, picture controlpart 12 dwindles processing by certain speed, presents the situation of carrying out convergent-divergent smoothly.And, predesignate the upper limit of dwindling, under the situation that reaches upper limit convergent-divergent rate, stop to dwindle processing.
Under the situation that does not detect input repeatedly, picture controlpart 12 carries out processing and amplifying.At this moment, picture controlpart 12 carries out processing and amplifying by certain speed, presents to carry out convergent-divergent smoothly.And, predesignate the lower limit of amplification, under the situation that reaches lower limit convergent-divergent rate (acquiescence), stop processing and amplifying.So under the state of acquiescence, picture controlpart 12 just keeps the convergent-divergent rate of acquiescence as long as do not detect input repeatedly.
At this, illustrate according to importing repeatedly to judge whether to dwindle processing.Having when importing repeatedly, the digit speed when picture controlpart 12 leavestouch pad 30 according to repeatedly cycle and finger is controlled and is dwindled processing.Specifically, the digit speed when leavingtouch pad 30 according to repeatedly cycle and finger is obtained the judgment value that is used to judge whether to dwindle processing.Present embodiment utilizes the paper helicopter model to ask this judgment value.Below describe this judgment value in detail.
Fig. 6 is the figure that is used to illustrate the principle of asking judgment value.Judgment value is equivalent to " raising force " in the paper helicopter model.Speed when 12 pairs of fingers of picture control part leave is obtained by the height of the inverse in cycle (number of occurrence of each unit interval) when being rotated repeatedly, as raising force.And Fig. 6 is the figure of expression principle, also can suitably add constant when actual when obtaining raising force, perhaps is multiplied by constant.As can be seen from Figure 6, the repetition period is short more, and judgment value is big more, and the speed when finger leaves is fast more, and judgment value is big more.On the contrary, the speed when finger leaves is 0, and under the situation about perhaps not importing repeatedly, judgment value is 0.The judgment value of obtaining like this becomes with the user will see the corresponding value of the meaning at a distance.Picture control part 12, when " raising force " surpasses " gravity ", the same in the model of paper helicopter with paper helicopter flight, when judgment value (raising force) surpasses the threshold value (gravity) of regulation, dwindle processing; When judgment value is the threshold value of regulation when following, carry out processing and amplifying.When constituting picture display device 1, set suitable value as defined threshold.
Fig. 7 is the figure of action of the picture display device of expression the 2nd embodiment.Picture display device 2 receives the operation information that sends successively fromtouch pad 30, carries out picture according to operation information and shows control.The below action of thepicture display device 2 behind the explanation reception operation information.
Picture display device 2 fromtouch pad 30, receiveexpression touch pad 30 retouched the direction of drawing with and the operation information (S40) of speed.Picture display device 2 is input to picture controlpart 12 to the operation information that is received by operationinformation acceptance division 10, and picture controlpart 12 is temporary to RAM14 (S42) the operation information of having imported.
The picture controlpart 12 ofpicture display device 2 judges according to operation information whether finger contacts touch pad 30 (S44).Not detecting finger and contacted the situation (at S44 for not) oftouch pad 30, is to point the situation that touches touch pad.Picture control part 12 judges whether finger has left touch pad 30 (S46).In this is judged, do not detecting under the situation that finger leaves (at S46 for not), finger is moving under the intact state on the touch pad 30.In the case, picture controlpart 12 is being retouched on the direction of drawingtouch pad 30, corresponding to retouching the speed of drawing roll (S60).
Whether detect in the judgement that finger leaves touch pad 30 (S46), detecting under the situation that finger leaves (at S46 for being), picture controlpart 12 calculates the speed of pointing when leaving (S48).Speed when finger leaves is the digit speed in the small time of pointing when leaving.Then, by the operation information of picture controlpart 12, calculate and retouch the cycle (S50) of drawing touch pad according to the RAM14 stored.Picture controlpart 12 is according to the operation information that RAM14 stored, and under the situation that is detecting input repeatedly, obtains the mean value that plays the required time till moment of finger contact from the moment that finger leaves, as the cycle; Under the situation that does not detect input repeatedly, be decided to be " ∞ " (number of occurrence of each unit interval=0) cycle.
Speed when picture controlpart 12 leaves according to finger and retouch the cycle of drawing touch pad and obtain judgment value surpasses under the situation of defined threshold in judgment value and dwindles processing; Under the situation of judgment value, carry out processing and amplifying (S52) less than defined threshold.Under situation about not importing repeatedly, the cycle is " ∞ ", so judgment value is 0, picture controlpart 12 carries out processing and amplifying.But, to press, the convergent-divergent rate of acquiescence is carried out under the situation of picture demonstration, no longer carries out its moral processing and amplifying in addition, so, keep the convergent-divergent rate of giving tacit consent to.Then, picture controlpart 12 turns back to the step S40 that receives operation information fromtouch pad 30.
In the judgement (S44) of the detection of adversary'sabutment touch pad 30, when detecting finger contact (at S44 for being), picture controlpart 12 carries out following processing.Whether the speed when at first, picture controlpart 12 is judged fingercontact touch pad 30 is 0 (S54).Digit speed in the small time when speed during fingercontact touch pad 30 is the finger contact.And, in this judgement (S54), judge whether speed is 0, still, not 0 even stress speed from the meaning of strictness, also can be judged as 0 to speed by picture control part 12.In what scope, speed is judged as 0, waits suitably according to the susceptibility of touch pad and set.
In this judgement (S54), be judged as when when contact finger if speed and be not 0 (at S54 for not), then picturecontrol part 12 is being retouched on the direction of drawingtouch pad 30 according to retouching the speed of drawing roll (S60).
When contact finger speed whether be in 0 the judgement (S54), if the speed of being judged as is 0 (at S54 for being), then picturecontrol part 12 judges whether to be in the convergent-divergent change processing (S56).That is to say that picture controlpart 12 judges whether to carry out the convergent-divergent change and handles (S52).The result of this judgement, under the situation in convergent-divergent change is handled (at S56 for being), picture controlpart 12 stops the convergent-divergent change and handles (S58), is retouching on the direction of drawingtouch pad 30, corresponding to retouching stroke speed roll (S60).Whether be in the convergent-divergent change judgement in handling (S56), be not under the situation of convergent-divergent change in handling (at S56 for not) being judged as, picture controlpart 12, corresponding to retouching the speed of drawing roll (S60) if retouching on the direction of drawing touch pad 30.Then, picture controlpart 12 turns back to the step S40 that receives operation information fromtouch pad 30.
More than, the structure and the action of thepicture display device 2 of the 2nd embodiment of the present invention have been described.
Thepicture display device 2 of present embodiment, the judgment value that speed when leaving with finger according to the cycle of input is repeatedly obtained surpasses under the situation of defined threshold, dwindle processing, before with 0 the speedcontact touch pad 30 of retouchingstroke touch pad 30, dwindle, so, only, can change to convergent-divergent rate arbitrarily by retouching the operation of drawing touch pad.
In thepicture display device 2 of present embodiment, be defined as: it is short more to import the cycle repeatedly, and judgment value is big more; Digit speed when finger leavestouch pad 30 is fast more, and judgment value is big more.Retouching and drawing on the direction after a large amount of meanings of rolling having hope, just carrying out the operation of retouching repeatedly stroke to equidirectional.So, just dwindle processing when surpassing the threshold value of regulation by judgment value, during retrieving information, the meaning that can not run counter to the user causes the convergent-divergent rate to change, and can retrieve information easily near the information in current reading.
In thepicture display device 2 of present embodiment, the digit speed when leavingtouch pad 30 according to finger obtains and whether dwindles picture and show, promptly whether think that the user will see the judgment value of information at a distance.Finger has the state of speed to approach the sensation of " throwing " paper when picture displayed is regarded a piece of paper as on the picture when leaving, a kind of interface of feeling to carry out the rolling that picture shows according to the user can be provided.
In thepicture display device 2 of embodiment of the present invention, the speed of the finger when contacting withtouch pad 30 is (at S54 for being) under 0 the situation, stops the convergent-divergent change and handles.Retouch the speed ofdrawing touch pad 30 and be 0 operation and be the operation that is in the picture of convergent-divergent rate change handling from last face contact.So, when shown picture is regarded a piece of paper as on picture, the variation of convergent-divergent rate is stopped with the sensation of " pushing " paper.And, do not leave touch pad by finger and retouch and draw, can under the state that the convergent-divergent rate is stopped, rolling, so, can provide with the user and feel the interface that is consistent.
And present embodiment is that example is illustrated with the touch pad.But, utilize finger pick-up unit and picture touch pad for one, also can carry out the picture control identical with present embodiment.And,, then also can use the input equipment beyond the touch pad if be used to detect the plane coordinate entering device of the contact position of finger or positioning equipment.
