An image forming apparatus includes a camera that shoots a user's hand raised up in the air, a HDD containing a plurality of hand gestures including actions of the specific finger making contact with another finger, and commands respectively associated with the plurality of hand gestures, a hand gesture recognizer that recognizes the hand gesture, from a plurality of shot images sequentially acquired from the camera, a command acquirer that acquires the command associated with the hand gesture recognized by the hand gesture recognizer, from the HDD, and a controller that performs an operation according to the command acquired by the command acquirer, on the position of a cursor on a screen of a display device.

Electronic device that operates according to user's hand gesture, and image forming apparatus

A multifunctional peripheral () includes a communication part (), a storage part (), a free space determination part (), a confidential document determination part (), and a storage processing part (). The free space determination part () determines that the storage part () contains a free space for storing print data, as a first storage condition. The confidential document determination part () determines that the print data is not a confidential document, as a second storage condition. The storage processing part () stores the print data in the storage part () in association with user information of a user terminal () when the first storage condition and the second storage condition are satisfied, and communicates with the user terminal () and stores the print data in the user terminal () when the first storage condition is not satisfied or when the second storage condition is not satisfied.

Image forming apparatus storing print data in user terminal or storage part according to storage condition

To provide an image forming apparatus having an excellent operability for inputting a numerical value, an image forming apparatus () includes a touch panel (), an angle change calculating portion (), and a numerical value counting portion (). The touch panel () is configured to detect touches of a plurality of fingers. The angle change calculating portion () is configured to, when it is detected that a first finger and a second finger have been touched to the touch panel (), calculate an angle change of the second finger with the first finger as a fulcrum. The numerical value counting portion () is configured to count a numerical value that is input, in response to the angle change calculated by the angle change calculating portion ().

Image forming apparatus and numerical value counting method

A display device includes a display panel and a control device. The control device functions as a determiner and a controller. The determiner determines, with a plurality of fields displayed on a screen of the display panel, whether or not an entire software keyboard is displayable without overlap with the plurality of fields on the screen of the display panel. The controller allows for, when the determiner determines that the entire software keyboard is displayable without overlap, display of the software keyboard without overlap with the plurality of fields or allows for, when the determiner determines that the entire software keyboard is not displayable without overlap, display of the software keyboard in a split form or display of the software keyboard in a partial form composed only of a portion of the software keyboard in a region of the screen out of the plurality of fields.

Display device capable of displaying software keyboard without overlap with plural fields and non-transitory computer-readable recording medium with display control program stored thereon

An electronic device includes a display device, a state detector, a storage device, an input device, and a control device. The control device causes the display device to display, when the open state is detected by the state detector, and the user information stored in the storage device and information received through the input device agree with each other, first information stored in the storage device in association with user information on a first display panel exposed in an open state of the display device, and restricts the display device from displaying the first information, when the open state of the display device is detected by the state detector, but the user information and the information received through the input device disagree, or when a folded state is detected by the state detector.

Electronic device and image forming apparatus that display preregistered information on display device, depending on open or closed state thereof

An image forming device includes: a display device; a storage device that stores finish icons indicating respective finished states of a plurality of types of printed material, function icons indicating respective functions of setting finished states of the printed materials, and a correspondence relationship between the finish icon and the function icon indicating the function of setting the finished state of the printed material indicated by the finish icon; and a control device that includes a processor and, by the processor executing a control program, functions as a controller. The controller reads out the finish icon from the storage device, causes the display device to display, on a screen thereof, the finish icon, reads out the function icon associated with the finish icon from the storage device based on the correspondence relationship, and causes the display device to display the function icon in association with the finish icon.

A display apparatus includes a display device, a touch panel, and a control device. The control device functions as a controller. The controller causes the display device to display one portion of a first image including a plurality of items arrayed along a first direction. The controller calculates, upon receiving scroll operation in the first direction via the touch panel, a speed of the scroll operation, causes the display device to scroll the first image when the calculated speed is equal to or less than a first speed, and causes the display device to scroll a second image including the plurality of items arrayed along a second direction when the calculated speed exceeds the first speed.

Display apparatus scrolling first image and second image in accordance with speed of scroll operation

A device registration program causes a computer in a mobile terminal to function as a device detecting section, a designated device discriminating section, a display control section, and a device registration section. The device detecting section detects any devices communicable with the mobile terminal. The designated device discriminating section discriminates a device designated according to an orientation of the mobile terminal on the basis of location information and orientation information of the mobile terminal and location information of each of the detected devices. The display control section causes display of a list of icons indicating models of the detected devices and display of an icon of the discriminated device in a different manner than the other icons in the list. The device registration section registers the discriminated device.

Storage medium storing device registration program and method for device registration

An operating device is provided with a display unit; a storage storing a plurality of workflows, each of which is composed of a combination of a predetermined plurality of processing items out of a plurality of processing items of an image forming apparatus including the operating device, in advance; a first selection input section for inputting the selection of a processing item out of the plurality of processing items of the image forming apparatus; a searching section for searching a workflow including the same processing item as the selected processing item from the plurality of workflows stored in the storage when the selection of the processing item is input by the first selection input section; and a display controller for controlling the display unit to display an image indicating the extracted workflow as a search result by the searching section.
