Abstract
A mobile information device has an operation unit which detects an operation by a user, a detection unit which detects a predetermined state when operated by the user, and a cntrol unit which validates or invalidates the operation of the operation unit, depending on whether the predetermined state is detected or not.
Claims34
A mobile information device comprising:
- an operation unit which detects an operation by a user;
- a detection unit which detects a predetermined state when operated by the user;
- and
- a control unit which validates or invalidates the operation of said operation unit, depending on whether the predetermined state is detected or not.
A mobile information device comprising:
- a power source;
- a detection unit which detects a predetermined state when operated by a user;
- and
- a control unit which controls such a transition point as to transit from a first state to a second state in accordance with whether the predetermined state is detected or not.
A mobile information device comprising:
- a display unit capable of controlling brightness of a display;
- a detection unit which detects a predetermined state when operated by a user;
- and
- a control unit which controls the brightness of the display in accordance with whether the predetermined state is detected or not.
