An image projection device which can correctly discern content of touch operation when a user performs various kinds of touch operation on an image projected on a projection screen is provided. An imaging unit is configured to image the image projected on the projection screen and acquire image data. A reference data generating unit is configured to generate reference data specifying a position and a size of the image projected on the projection. An image data extracting unit is configured to extract image data in which a finger or a pointer with which a user performs operation on the image projected on the projection screen exists is focused in the image data obtained by the imaging unit. A position data generating unit is configured to generate position data for specifying a position of the finger or the pointer in the imaging range of the imaging unit.

Image projection device

An image projection device which can correctly discern content of touch operation when a user performs various kinds of touch operation on an image projected on a projection screen is provided. An imaging unit is adjusted to come into focus on the projection screen. An image data extracting unit extracts image data in which a finger or the like exists and in which the finger or the like is brought into focus in image data obtained by the imaging unit. An operation determining unit determines content of operation performed with the finger or the like, on the basis of the image data extracted by the image data extracting unit. An input control unit recognizes content of an input instruction corresponding to the operation performed with the finger or the like, on the basis of data relating to the content of the operation performed with the finger or the like, position data of the finger or the like, and reference data for specifying a position and a size of the image projected on the projection screen, and controls a projection unit in accordance with the recognized content of the input instruction.

When an image capturing apparatus captures an image of an original screen and a finger reflected on an eye of a user, an operation determination unit determines the content of an operation performed with the finger based on image data of the captured image. An operation position identification unit generates data representing a position of the finger on the original screen based on the image data of the captured image. An input control unit recognizes a content of an input instruction corresponding to the operation performed with the finger, based on data on the content of the operation obtained by the operation determination unit, data on the position generated by the operation position identification unit, and data on the original screen stored in a storage unit, and controls the original screen to be displayed on a display apparatus according to the recognized content of the input instruction.

A portable computing device includes a touch screen with a display, and a controller that causes a keyboard image and first and second command graphics to be displayed. The first and second command graphics each contain a direction-specifying area for selecting a direction of movement of a cursor that is movable within the keyboard image and a selection input area. Touch position information concerning whether the direction-specifying area or the selection input area has been touched is generated by the controller. When the direction-specifying area of the first or second command graphic is touched, the corresponding cursor is moved in one or more discrete key image units in the direction of movement indicated by a portion of direction-specifying area that was touched; when the selection input area is touched, the character of the character key image that the cursor is currently superimposed upon is displayed on the character display field.

Portable computing device

When an imaging apparatus () captures an image of a finger performing an operation on a visual confirmation screen (S), an operation determining unit () of a computer display device () mounted on eyeglasses () determines the contents of the operation performed by the finger based on image data obtained by the imaging apparatus (). A positional data generating unit () generates positional data of the finger based on the image data. Based on data concerning the determined contents of the operation performed by the finger, the generated positional data of the finger, and reference data concerning the visual confirmation screen stored in a storage unit (), an input control unit () determines the contents of an inputted instruction corresponding to the operation performed by the finger, and controls an original screen to be displayed on an display apparatus () in accordance with the determined contents of the inputted instruction.

It is possible to update firmware of domain masters during travelling. An in-vehicle communication system includes a plurality of domain masters, and a redundant domain master configured to be able to perform alternative operations of the plurality of domain masters. The domain masters transmits operation information to the redundant domain master prior to update of firmware. The redundant domain master executes the alternative operation of the domain master using the received operation information. The domain master receives, after the update of the firmware, operation information generated in the alternative operation from the redundant domain master and operates in the updated firmware.

A portable terminal that can be held stably and can perform entry operation quickly at the time of character entry is provided. On a character entry screen including a keyboard screen, a first cursor and a second cursor are displayed. A first indicating buttonfor indicating the direction of movement of the first cursor and giving an instruction to select a key currently indicated by the first cursor on the keyboard screen and a second indicating buttonfor indicating the direction of movement of the second cursor and giving an instruction to select a key currently indicated by the second cursor on the keyboard screen are provided at the lower edge on the front side of the portable terminal. A control means of the portable terminal controls the entry of a character based on a signal from the first indicating buttonand a signal from the second indicating button

Portable terminal for controlling two cursors within a virtual keyboard according to setting of movement by a single key at a time or a plurality of keys at a time

A portable computing device includes a touch screen associated with a display, and a controller that causes a keyboard image and at least one command graphic to be displayed on the display. The command graphic contains a direction-specifying area for selecting a direction of movement of a cursor that is movable within the keyboard image and a selection input area. Touch position information concerning whether the direction-specifying area or the selection input area has been touched is generated by the controller. When the direction-specifying area is touched, the cursor is moved in one or more discrete key image units in a direction of movement indicated by a portion of direction-specifying area that was touched, and when the selection input area is touched, the character of the character key image that the cursor is currently superimposed upon is displayed on the character display field.

Provided is a display device, including: a plurality of pixels that are provided between a first substrate and a light-transparent second substrate, the plurality of pixels each including a light-reflective first electrode, an organic layer, and a light-transparent second electrode in order from the first substrate side, the organic layer including at least a light-emission layer; a first light-shielding layer that is provided in a region between the plurality of pixels on one side of the second substrate; and a second light-shielding layer that is provided between the first light-shielding layer and the first substrate, the second light-shielding layer facing at least part of the first light-shielding layer.
