Embodiments include systems and methods for an electronic device including circuitry configured to acquire data of a first group of one or more images photographed by a first photographing method with corresponding first attribute information and first photographing time, and acquire data of a second group of one or more images photographed by a second photographing method with corresponding second attribute information and second photographing time; assign a priority to the first group and the second group based on the first photographing method and the second photographing method, respectively; and select one or more images from the first group and the second group based upon the assigned priorities, wherein a time to continuously display the selected one or more images occurs within a pre-determined time range for a set display mode.

Generation of a digest video

An information processing apparatus including a display; a touch panel stacked on or integrally formed with the display; and a controller that receives an output from the touch panel indicating that first gesture input is detected that substantially encloses a region of the display, and controls the display to expand an image displayed by the display based on a size of the region.

Terminal device, image display method, and storage medium

An information processing apparatus that determines a position of a touch input received at a display of the information processing apparatus, controls the display to display a string of candidate characters for input at a position on the display corresponding to the position of the touch input, detects selection of a desired character from the string of candidate characters, and controls the display to display the desired character in a character input field on the display.

Character input device

An information processing apparatus including an interface that receives a display switching instruction to switch an object displayed on a display, and a processor that controls the display to switch objects displayed on the display based on the display switching instruction, controls the display to stop switching objects for a predetermined period of time when a predetermined object is displayed on the display, and controls the display to resume switching objects displayed on the display upon determining that the predetermined period of time has elapsed.

Display control device

An information processing apparatus including an interface that displays an object and receives an instruction to change a display scale of the object, and a processor that controls the interface to change the display scale of the object based on the received instruction, controls the interface to stop changing the display scale of the displayed object for a predetermined period of time when the display scale of the displayed object becomes a predetermined display scale, and controls the interface to resume changing the display scale of the displayed object upon determining that the predetermined period of time has elapsed.

Variable display scale control device and variable playing speed control device

A mobile terminal device including a communication processor that conducts wireless communication processing, an operation unit that receives an instruction input from a user for selecting a communication contact, a displacement detector that detects a magnitude of displacement in orientation of the mobile terminal device, and a controller that causes the communication processor to conduct the wireless communication with the selected communication contact according to the detected magnitude of displacement.
