A ship information display device is provided, which may include a first processor, a second processor, a graphic processor, and a display. The first processor may generate a first image based on first ship information received from a first ship sensor and generate a screen to be synthesized including the first image and a blank image. The second processor may generate a second image based on second ship information received from a second ship sensor. The graphic processor may generate a synthesized screen including the first image and the second image by replacing the blank image of the screen to be synthesized by the second image generated by the second processor. The display may display the synthesized screen.

Ship information display device and method of displaying ship information

An information display device includes a touch position and processing circuitry. The touch position detector is configured to detect a touched position of a screen. The processing circuitry is configured to acquire a plurality of information, display the plurality of acquired information on a plurality of display areas dividing the screen, respectively, display a change icon on one of the plurality of display areas, and sequentially change the plurality of information assigned as changeable information in the one display area where the change icon is displayed, each time the touched position of the screen is detected at a position where the change icon is displayed.

Device and method for displaying information

A touch panel device displays a nautical chart as map data on a display screen. The touch panel device detects a first touch operation on the display screen and a second touch operation on the display screen, the first touch operation being a touch operation of which a position is fixed, the second touch operation being a touch operation of which a position is changed. The touch panel device obtains a rotational axis parallel to the sea surface based on the position of the first touch operation, and rotates a viewpoint of the map data centering on the rotational axis based on a change amount of a distance from the position of the first touch operation to the position of the second touch operation.

Device having touch panel, radar apparatus, plotter apparatus, ship network system, viewpoint changing method and viewpoint changing program

A touch panel device includes a display unit, a detector, and a controller. The display unit displays an image (nautical chart) on a display screen. The detector detects touches at two positions on the display screen and touched positions thereof. The controller displays a distance and azimuths between the touched positions, based on the two touched positions that are detected by the detector and either one of coordinates on the image corresponding to the touched positions and information associated with the coordinates (positional information).

Device having touch panel, radar apparatus, plotter apparatus, ship network system, information displaying method and information displaying program

A touch panel device includes a display unit, a detector, and a controller. The display unit displays, on a display screen, a nautical chart (map), and a touch panel device symbol indicating a position of the ship on the nautical chart. The detector detects rotating operation that is touch operation of rotating around the touch panel device symbol over a predetermined angle while touching the touch panel device symbol. When the detector detects the rotating operation, the controller switches a display mode to a different display mode in which a reference azimuth defining a displaying orientation of the nautical chart is different.

Information display device, display mode switching method and display mode switching program

A display device is provided. The device includes memories, a display unit, and a data collecting memory. The memories store a plurality of kinds of image data generated based on information acquired from different kinds of sensors, respectively. The display unit displays the image data that is selected by a user among the plurality of kinds of image data. The data collecting memory stores, in response to a predetermined report instruction, at least data of an image displayed on the display unit at the timing of the report instruction and, among the image data stored in the memories at the timing of the report instruction, the image data that is not displayed on the display unit.

Display device and information collecting method using the same

When an information display layout is created, a touch panel device displays information display areas icons. A user can create the information display layout by dragging the icons to the information display areas. After the drag operation, information corresponding to the icons is displayed in the respective information display areas.

A touch panel device (display device) acquires a first sensor image, a second sensor image, and a third sensor image. The touch panel device displays acquired images in respective divided areas of a display screen. The touch panel device detects a predetermined touch gesture and detects an operated location of the touch gesture. The touch panel device identifies which image the operated location indicates. The touch panel device performing processing corresponding to the identified touch gesture (scrolling or zooming of a display image), and changes a direction or a motion range of the processing according to the identified sensor image.

Display device, display program and display method

An information display device includes a preset course information receiver, a symbol display processor, a change mode execution processor, and a preset course information transmitter. The preset course information receiver receives preset course information from an automatic steering device. The symbol display processor displays a symbol representing a preset course on a display screen to correspond to position information of a mobile body based on the preset course information. The change mode execution processor executes a change mode for changing the preset course information based on a fact that the symbol has been designated with a manipulation component. The preset course information transmitter transmits the preset course information changed during the change mode to the automatic steering device. The symbol display processor changes an orientation of the symbol representing the preset course according to a change operation in the preset course information with the manipulation component during the change mode.

Information display device and course setting method

A network system is provided with a plurality of terminals connected thereto, each of the terminals being configured to be connectable to a network and switchable between server mode and client mode. Each of the terminals includes a terminal information registration unit and a comparison information storage unit, and the terminal information registration unit stores information on each other terminal connected to the network as well as information on whether each other terminal is a server terminal or a client terminal. The comparison information storage unit stores comparison information used for server selection. In a server selection process, at least one of the terminals compares pieces of the comparison information stored in the comparison information storage units of the individual terminals through terminal-to-terminal communication and, depending on the result of comparison, one of the terminals to which priority is given is selected to work as the server terminal.
