Abstract
An operation apparatus operates an electronic device. The operation apparatus includes a receiver configured to receive a first image from the electronic device; an image generator configured to generate a second image including the first image received by the receiver; a message setter configured to set a message corresponding to a status of the electronic device, with respect to the first image included in the second image; a display configured to display the second image; and a voice sound outputter configured to output, by voice sound, the message set with respect to the first image, in response to a user operating the first image included in the second image being displayed.
Claims20
An operation apparatus for operating an electronic device, the operation apparatus comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- cause a display to display an operation screen to operate the electronic device, said operation screen including a first operation region and a second operating region, each of said first and second operation regions having a plurality of display elements that are operatable by a user;
- determine, when the user operates the operation screen, whether the user operates a display element that belongs to the first operation region or the user operates a display element that belongs to the second operating region;
- output, by voice sound, a message that is corresponding to each of the plurality of display elements of the first operation region and different from each other, when the user operates each of the plurality of display elements of the first operating region, and
- output, by voice sound, an identical message for each of the plurality of display elements of the second operation region when the user operates any of the plurality of display elements of the second operating region.
An information processing system including an electronic device and an operation apparatus for operating the electronic device,
- wherein the operation apparatus comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- cause a display to display a operation screen to operate the electronic device, said operation screen including a first operation region and a second operating region, each of said first and second operating regions having a plurality of display elements that are operatable by a user,
- a receiver configured to receive a first image from the electronic device;
- determine whether the user operates a display element that belongs to the first operation region or the user operates a display element that belongs to the second operation region when the user operates the operation screen;
- output, by voice sound, a message that is corresponding to each of the plurality of display elements of the first operation region and different from each other, when the user operates each of the plurality of display elements of the first operating region, and
- output, by voice sound, an identical message for each of the plurality of display elements of the second operation region when the user operates any of the plurality of display elements of the second operating region.
An operation method for operating an electronic device, comprising:
- causing a display to display a operation screen to operate the electronic device, said operation screen including a first operation region and a second operating region, each of said first and second operating regions having a plurality of display elements that are operatable by a user,
- a receiver configured to receive a first image from the electronic device;
- determining whether the user operates a display element that belongs to the first operation region or the user operates a display element that belongs to the second operation region when the user operates the operation screen;
- outputting, by voice sound, a message that is corresponding to each of the plurality of display elements of the first operation region and different from each other, when the user operates each of the plurality of display elements of the first operating region, and
- outputting, by voice sound, an identical message for each of the plurality of display elements of the second operation region when the user operates any of the plurality of display elements of the second operating region.
