Apparatus operation device and computer program product

An apparatus operation device comprising:

• a direction operation module configured to receive an operating instruction in a two-dimensional direction;
• a recognizing module configured to recognize a swing motion or a tilting motion of the apparatus operation device;
• and
• an output module configured to output a first operation command corresponding to a first operation for transition of a pointer on a screen by a first movement in a direction corresponding to a predetermined condition when the swing motion or the tilting motion recognized satisfies the predetermined condition, and to output a second operation command corresponding to a second operation for transition of the pointer on the screen by a second movement smaller than the first movement in the two-dimensional direction when the operating instruction in the two-dimensional direction is received.

A computer program product having a non-transitory computer readable medium including programmed instructions, wherein the instructions, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform:

• receiving an operating instruction in a two-dimensional direction;
• recognizing a swing motion or a tilting motion of an apparatus operation device;
• and
• outputting a first operation command corresponding to a first operation for screen transition corresponding to a predetermined condition when the swing motion or the tilting motion recognized satisfies the predetermined condition, and to output a second operation command corresponding to a second operation for transition of a pointer on the screen in the two-dimensional direction when the operating instruction in the two-dimensional direction is received.
