A display method includes displaying a first image representing a first user and a second image representing a second user on a display surface on which a camera is arranged, obtaining information representing a position of the camera on the display surface, outputting a sound made by the first user, displaying the first image at a position, the position being closer to a position of the camera than a position at which the second image is displayed is, during a period in which the sound made by the first user is output, and transmitting an image obtained by the camera during the period in which the sound made by the first user is output, to a terminal device used by the first user.

Display method, display system, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing program

Image information and identification information identifying an external device are acquired from the external device. An image based on the image information is displayed on a display surface. A drawing object is generated from a trajectory of a pointing unit in a drawing area on the display surface based on the image as a reference. The drawing object is stored in association with the identification information into a memory. The drawing object associated with the identification information in the memory is displayed on the display surface, as linked to the image.

Method for controlling display device, and display device

A projector includes an image generation section adapted to generate a composite image including a first image based on a first image signal, a second image based on a second image signal, and a boundary line indicating a position to be a boundary between the first image and the second image, a projection section adapted to display the composite image generated by the image generation section on a screen, a position detection section adapted to detect a position of a pointing body with respect to the screen, and a control section adapted to make the image generation section generate a composite image with a boundary line moved based on the position of the pointing body detected by the position detection section.

Display device, and method of controlling display device

A projector can include a projection section that projects an image on a projection surface, a detection light radiation section that radiates detection light in a direction corresponding to the projection surface. The projector can also include an adjuster that adjusts the direction of the detection light relative to the projection surface, and an imager and a controller that can detect reflected light resulting from the detection light to detect operation performed on the projection surface. The controller can evaluate whether or not the detection state of the reflected light corresponds to a specific state. If the detection is in the specific state, the adjuster can adjust the direction of the detection light based on a result of the evaluation.

Projector including a light detector and a controller and method for controlling the projector

Display apparatus including plurality of input sections, communication section, connection detector that detects connection between information terminal apparatus and communication section via cable, position information generator that generates position information on position on a display surface at which pointing element points, display section that displays an image on display surface, controller that executes first mode that causes display section to display image based on image information and position information and second mode that causes display section to display image based on image information and operates information terminal apparatus based on position information wherein two modes are switchable from one to the other, and storage that stores source information on use result representing input section used in execution of second mode, and when connection detector detects connection, controller selects one of the plurality of input sections based on source information and executes second mode.

Display apparatus, display system, and method for controlling display apparatus

A projector including an imaging section that detects operation performed on a screen, a coordinate calculating section that calculates position information representing the position in a display area where the operation detected by the imaging section has been performed, and a control section that produces a drawn object based on the position information calculated by the coordinate calculating section and causes both the produced drawn object and a partial image to be displayed in the display area, and the control section switches the operation mode of the display apparatus between a first operation mode in which the position information is transmitted to another projector via a USB I/F section and a second operation mode in which the position information is converted into image position information representing the position in an image displayed on the screen and causes the display apparatus to operate in the selected mode.

Display apparatus and method for controlling display apparatus

An electronic apparatus includes: first to third source-side IF units; and a control unit which causes one of the first to third source-side IF units to transmit image data inputted thereto, to a projector, when an operation mode of the electronic apparatus is a first operation mode, and which causes one of the first to third source-side IF units that is not the one of the first to third source-side IF units connected when in the first operation mode, to transmit image data inputted thereto, to the projector, when the operation mode of the electronic apparatus is a second operation mode. The control unit switches the operation mode to one of the first operation mode and the second operation mode in response to a change request received from the projector.

Electronic apparatus, display system, and method for controlling electronic apparatus

A display device includes: a communication unit; a storage unit; a display unit which is enabled to display an image based on image information, when the storage unit stores the image information; and a control unit. The control unit causes the communication unit to execute an operation to transmit first information used to give an instruction to display the image, to the information processing device, and causes the storage unit to store the image information, when the communication unit receives a first signal. The control unit causes the communication unit to execute an operation to transmit a second signal which prompts a display corresponding to the first information to the information processing device, after the storage unit stores the image information. The control unit causes the display unit to display the image when the communication unit receives a third signal which gives an instruction to display the image.

Display system, display device, and method for controlling display device

A projector includes a video processing section configured to generate a third image by combining, on the basis of transmittance, a first image based on first image information and a second image generated by converting luminance information of second image information including the luminance information into the transmittance and an image forming section configured to display the third image.

Display device and control method for conversion of luminance information

A display device includes an input section to which image information is externally input, a display section adapted to display an image based on the image information on a display surface, and a control section adapted to control the display device based on setting information related to an operation of the display device to make the display section display the image, and change the setting information from first setting information to second setting information in accordance with an instruction for changing the setting information. In the case in which the image information is not input to the input section for a first time period after the control section changes the setting information from the first setting information to the second setting information, the control section changes the setting information from the second setting information to the first setting information.

A display apparatus includes a storage that stores a set period that is a period from the point of time when electric power supply starts to the point of time when a projection section starts displaying an image, a remote control that accepts operation, and a controller that changes the set period based on the operation accepted by the remote control, and the controller causes the projection section to start projecting the image after the electric power supply starts and the set period then elapses.
