Abstract
A display apparatus that includes an acquisition interface for acquiring a plurality of image data, a communication interface for communicating with another display apparatus, a reception interface for receiving an operation relating to an image to be displayed on a display, and a processor which selects image data to be used for displaying an image on the display, from the plurality of image data, based on an operation received by the reception interface, controls the display to display an image based on selected image data, and controls communication with the other display apparatus via the communication interface so that the other display apparatus displays an image based on the selected image data.
Claims13
A display apparatus for displaying an image on a display, the display apparatus comprising:
- an acquisition interface configured to acquire a plurality of image data;
- a communication interface configured to communicate with an other display apparatus acquiring the plurality of image data;
- a reception interface configured to receive an operation for selecting one image data which is used for displaying an image on the display, among the plurality of image data;
- and
- at least one memory and at least one processor which function as:
- selecting one image data among the plurality of image data in accordance with the operation received by the reception interface;
- controlling the display to display an image based on selected image data among the plurality of image data;
- and
- controlling communication with the other display apparatus via the communication interface so that the other display apparatus displays an image corresponding to the selected image data among the plurality of image data;
- setting one of a plurality of modes based on an operation received by the reception interface, the plurality of modes including:
- a first mode in which the display apparatus communicates with the other display apparatus so that the other display apparatus displays an image based on the selected image data, and the display apparatus does not respond to an instruction from the other display apparatus specifying image data for displaying an image on the display,
- a second mode in which the display apparatus does not communicate with the other display apparatus to cause the other display apparatus to an image based on the selected image data, and in response to an instruction from the other display apparatus specifying image data for displaying an image on the display, the display apparatus displays this image, and
- a third mode in which the display apparatus communicates with the other display apparatus so that the other display apparatus displays an image based on the selected image data, and, in response to an instruction from the other display apparatus specifying image data for displaying an image on the display, displays this image.
