Communication device, communication system, communication control method, and communication control program

A portable electronic device includes a battery, a communication unit, a pressure detector, and at least one processor. The battery supplies power. The communication unit communicates with an external device. The pressure detector detects pressure. The at least one processor increases a shutoff reference value in accordance with a drop in the pressure. The at least one processor shuts off the supply of the power when the remaining battery capacity of the battery is less than the shutoff reference value.

Portable electronic device, method of controlling portable electronic device, and non-transitory computer readable recording medium

A mobile electronic apparatus comprises a display including a display area having a first edge and a second edge, an input unit including a detector, and at least one processor. The display displays a display screen on the display area. The detector detects an operation performed on the display area. The at least one processor places a mode change element adjacent to the first edge or the second edge of the display area, scales down the display screen in response to detection of a first operation performed on the mode change element, and displays the display screen, which is scaled down, as a scaled-down screen on a part of the display area. The at least one processor determines, in response to a user's input to the input unit, which one of the first edge and the second edge is to be adjacent to the mode change element.

Mobile electronic apparatus, display method for use in mobile electronic apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable recording medium

An electronic device is provided with an activation unit for activating an application wherein character input to a character input area is possible, a memory for storing a predetermined character string corresponding to the application, an operation unit for inputting a first character string and a second character string, a display unit for displaying the first character string and the second character string input from the operation unit, a determination unit for determining whether or not the second character string matches the predetermined character string, and a control unit which, when the determination unit determines that the second character string matches the predetermined character string, functions to control an activation unit to activate an application corresponding to the predetermined character string and functions to input the first character string in the character input area of the application.

Electronic device and method for activating application

According to an aspect, a device includes: a display unit for displaying a screen; a sensor for detecting an inclination of the display unit; an operating unit for detecting an operation; and a controller. The controller changes an orientation of the screen depending upon the inclination detected through the sensor and the operation detected through the operation unit.

Device, method and storage medium storing program for controlling screen orientation

A mobile electronic device includes a display unit, a storage unit, and a control unit. The display unit displays a first screen or a second screen. The storage unit stores therein a character string in association with a condition. The control unit displays the character string on the first screen in a superimposed manner in a case where the first screen is displayed on the display unit and the condition is satisfied. The control unit does not display the character string on the second screen in the superimposed manner in a case where the second screen is displayed on the display unit and the condition is satisfied.

Mobile electronic device, notification control method, and storage medium storing notification program

An imaging apparatus includes a photographing device for acquiring a created image; and a display device for showing a preview image of the created image. The apparatus may have a control device for superimposing a plurality of outlines on the preview image shown on the display device, and subjecting at least one of areas, which are included in the created image and are surrounded by the outlines in the preview image, to an image transformation process. Alternatively, the apparatus has a control device for superimposing an outline, which corresponds to a synthetic target image indicating a target image of transformation, on the preview image shown on the display device, and subjecting an area, which is included in the created image and is surrounded by the outline in the preview image, to an image transformation process performed based on the synthetic target image.

Imaging apparatus and image processing method

Disclosed is an electronic device that makes it easy to input desired characters using a directional key. Also disclosed is a display control method for an electronic device. The disclosed electronic device is provided with a display unit (), a user input unit () that can specify a plurality of directions, and a control unit (). If one of the plurality of directions is specified via the user input unit () while characters and numbers are being displayed on the display unit (), the control unit selects different characters and different numbers for changing the characters and/or numbers displayed on the display unit () to other characters and numbers. The control unit then has the display unit () display the selected other characters and numbers.

Electronic device

It is possible to provide a mobile display device which can improve usability even when the character size is increased for improving visibility. A method for controlling the mobile display device is also disclosed. A control unit () can set a conversion candidate of an input character displayed on a second display region (conversion candidate character display region ()) of a display unit () to a first display mode (normal mode) for displaying the conversion candidate in a first character size and to a second display mode (enlarged mode) for displaying the conversion candidate in a second character size greater than the first character size while differentiating a display priority of a plurality of conversion candidates to be displayed in the second display region in the first display mode and a display priority of a plurality of conversion candidates to be displayed in the second display region in the second display mode.

Mobile display device and method of controlling display of conversion candidates of input characters on the mobile display device

A mobile terminal device is provided which can be used without an incongruous feeling. In Step S, it is determined whether or not the operated application is the second display state (landscape display). When it is determined that the application is not the landscape display, the process is transferred to Step S, and the key operation functions assigned to the keys bto bof the 'TURN-CLOSE STATE (LENGTHWISE)' of the key assignment table are assigned to the keys bto b. In Step S, when it is determined that the operated application is the landscape display, the process is transferred to Step S, the key operation functions assigned to the keys bto bof 'TURN-CLOSE STATE (WIDTHWISE)' of the key assignment table are assigned to the keys bto b, and the key operation unit in the turn-close state has the same function as the cross key
