Abstract
Provided is an information processing device that includes a control unit that sets an input auxiliary region based on an acquired sensing result of an operator and display a starting point of an input start within the input auxiliary region when the input start performed using the operator is detected.
Claims16
An information processing device, comprising:
- a control unit configured to:
- acquire a sensing result associated with detection of an operator;
- set a first input auxiliary region based on the acquired sensing result of the operator;
- detect a start of an input operation by the operator;
- control display of a starting point of the input operation within the first input auxiliary region based on the detected start of the input operation;
- control display of a virtual operator within the first input auxiliary region;
- recognize the input operation by the operator;
- control display of input information within the first input auxiliary region based on the recognized input operation;
- and
- change a size of the first input auxiliary region based on a relation between a position of the displayed virtual operator and the first input auxiliary region.
An information processing method, comprising:
- acquiring a sensing result associated with detection of an operator;
- setting an input auxiliary region based on the acquired sensing result of the operator;
- detecting a start of an input operation by the operator;
- controlling display of a starting point of the input operation within the input auxiliary region based on the detected start of the input operation;
- controlling display of a virtual operator within the input auxiliary region;
- recognizing the input operation by the operator;
- controlling display of input information within the input auxiliary region based on the recognized input operation;
- and
- changing a size of the input auxiliary region based on a relation between a position of the displayed virtual operator and the input auxiliary region.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon, computer-executable instructions, which when executed by computer, cause the computer to execute operations, the operations comprising:
- acquiring a sensing result associated with detection of an operator;
- setting an input auxiliary region based on the acquired sensing result of the operator;
- detecting a start of an input operation by the operator;
- controlling display of a starting point of the input operation within the input auxiliary region based on the detected start of the input operation;
- controlling display of a virtual operator within the input auxiliary region;
- recognizing the input operation by the operator;
- controlling display of input information within the input auxiliary region based on the recognized input operation;
- and
- changing a size of the input auxiliary region based on a relation between a position of the displayed virtual operator and the input auxiliary region.
