Disclosed herein is an image processing device having a display section and an image pickup section, the image processing device including: an operating section configured to generating an operating signal on a basis of contact of a user with the display section; a bulletin board display controlling section configured to display a bulletin board for posting an image message on the display section, and display an image message generated in advance on the bulletin board; a picked-up image display controlling section configured to display an image being picked up by the image pickup section on the bulletin board when an operating element for transition to an image pickup mode, the operating element being displayed within the bulletin board, is operated; and an image message generating section configured to subject the displayed the image to a predetermined edit, and generate an image message.

Image processing device and method, and program

A display control apparatus includes the following elements. An accepting unit accepts selection of one of objects displayed in a window in either a cursor mode, in which a cursor is moved to select an object, or a pointer mode, in which a pointer is moved to select an object, one of the modes being selected by a user. When an instruction to switch the pointer mode to the cursor mode is given, a display control unit erases the pointer and displays the cursor such that the cursor selects an object closest to a position where the pointer was displayed just before being erased.

Apparatus, method, and program for display control

An information processing apparatus includes a detector and a display controller. The detector detects a user operation performed by using a first input interface and a user operation performed by using a second input interface. When the detector detects that an operation using the second input interface has been performed while a predetermined screen is displayed on the basis of detection of an operation using the first input interface, the display controller changes the predetermined screen to a screen containing an object indicating that the object can be operated by an operation using the second input interface.

Information processing apparatus, display control method, and program

A system and method for making menu items easily adjustable on the setting screen of a camera with regard to the predetermined object to be operated. The camera setting utility screen for the CCD camera is displayed on the liquid crystal display any one of the plural number of menu items is selected from said camera setting utility screen displayed according to the rotation operation and the push operation of the jog dial. The setting condition with regard to the menu item selected is adjusted corresponding to the rotation operation and the push operation of the jog dial. The CCD camera is set to the setting condition adjusted, such that operation of selection of menu item to the adjustment of setting condition can be conducted merely by the rotation operation and the push operation of the jog dial.

Menu selection using a rotating dial and button

An information processing apparatus that allows a display to show a plurality of windows on a same screen is disclosed. The information processing apparatus includes: a detecting means for detecting a signal sent in response to a press of a button allocated on a remote controller; a control means for outputting to an operating system a signal indicating that a first key and a second key provided on a keyboard are pressed and allowing the operating system to switch a representation on the display when the detecting means detects that a first button provided on the remote controller is pressed in accordance with a state of the representation on the display; and a measuring means for measuring a time period from the detection of a signal corresponding to the press of the first button.

Information processing apparatus, display control method, and program for controlling a display of the information processing apparatus based on an input received from a remote controller

A display displays a capture mode displaying source image data and a send mode displaying processed image data, which is to be sent. The display simultaneously displays, upon a switch from the capture mode to the send mode, the processed image data and a manipulation. The manipulation includes pixel values of the source image data and dummy values. An input inputs an address of a terminal to which the processed image data is to be transmitted. A transmitter transmits an address of a terminal together with the processed image data over a network to a server such that the server executes a processing for providing the processed image data to the terminal. An image data processor determines an image processing capacity of the terminal and converts an image size of the source image data such that the processed image data is commensurate with the image processing capacity of the terminal.
