A game device includes: a display control unit that displays a plurality of display targets on a display screen of a display device; an input acquiring unit that acquires a position of input from a front touch panel or a rear touch panel, which can detect input on the display screen; and a movement control unit that defines as a target to be moved a display target displayed by the display control unit on the display screen at a position corresponding to the position of a first input entry acquired by the input acquiring unit, and operative to scroll a display target other than the target to be moved in accordance with a second input entry acquired by the input acquiring unit while keeping the display position of the target to be moved at the position of the first input entry.

Input control device, input control method, and input control program for controlling display target upon receiving input on display screen of display device

Provided is a mobile device including a magnetic sensor and a posture detection sensor for detecting a posture of the mobile device independently of the magnetic sensor, which acquires output data of the magnetic sensor as a plurality of sampling data items in a plurality of states in which the posture detection sensor determines that the mobile device is directed in directions different from one another, the plurality of sampling data items respectively corresponding to the plurality of states, and calculates an offset value which is estimated to be output by the magnetic sensor when the magnetic sensor is not sensing geomagnetism based on the acquired plurality of sampling data items.

Mobile device

Provided is an information processing device which allows a user to provide, regardless of a position or direction of a touch sensor, an operation input to the touch sensor at an arbitrary position or in an arbitrary direction. The information processing device includes two touch sensors each including a detection surface for detecting a position of an object thereon, the two touch sensors being arranged to be opposed to each other, determines at least one of a reference point and a reference axis based on one or a plurality of positions detected by one touch sensor of the two touch sensors, and evaluates a content detected by another touch sensor of the two touch sensors based on the at least one of the determined reference point and the determined reference axis to determine a content of an operation input of a user.
