Abstract
An apparatus and method provide logic for processing information. In one implementation, an apparatus may include a determination unit configured to determine a first spatial position of a portion of an operating tool disposed within a threshold distance of a surface of the determination unit. The first spatial position may be determined relative to the determination unit surface in a depth direction. The apparatus may also include a control unit configured to generate a first signal to display a stereoscopic image to a user at a first display position. The first display position may be disposed within a predetermined distance of the first spatial position.
Claims19
An information processing apparatus, comprising:
- circuitry configured to
- control display of an image to be stereoscopically perceivable by a user,
- detect proximity between a portion of an operating tool of the user and a display surface,
- receive an operation of the operating tool,
- determine a location of the received operation,
- determine a depth of the received operation based on the detected proximity between the portion of the operating tool and the display surface, and
- reduce a size of the image based on the determined depth of the received operation,
- wherein the size of the image is reduced by reducing visual content of the image and reducing a disparity of the image.
A computer-implemented method for displaying images, the method comprising:
- displaying an image to be stereoscopically perceivable by a user;
- detecting proximity between a portion of an operating tool of the user and a display surface;
- receiving an operation of the operating tool;
- determining a location of the received operation;
- determining a depth of the received operation based on the detected proximity between the portion of the operating tool and the display surface;
- and
- reducing a size of the image based on the determined depth of the received operation,
- wherein the size of the image is reduced by reducing visual content of the image and reducing a disparity of the image.
A tangible, non-transitory computer-readable medium having embodied thereon a program, which when executed by a computer cause the computer to execute a method, the method comprising:
- displaying an image to be stereoscopically perceivable by a user;
- detecting proximity between a portion of an operating tool of the user and a display surface;
- receiving an operation of the operating tool;
- determining a location of the received operation;
- determining a depth of the received operation based on the detected proximity between the portion of the operating tool and the display surface;
- and
- reducing a size of the image based on the determined depth of the received operation,
- wherein the size of the image is reduced by reducing visual content of the image and reducing a disparity of the image.
