Abstract
An operation receiver includes a first detector and a second detector each of which detects an object. A detection range for the first detector and another detection range for the second detector are located next to each other. The first detector detects a state of the object. A controller makes a judgment as to whether the operation by the object has been carried out to the first detector or to the second detector.
Claims15
An operation receiver that receives an operation of a user, the operation receiver comprising:
- a first detector and a second detector each of which detects an object;
- and
- a controller that makes a judgment as to whether the operation by the object has been carried out to the first detector or to the second detector, wherein
- a first detection range for the first detector and a second detection range for the second detector are located next to each other, and
- the first detector detects a state of the object.
An operation receiver that includes a touch panel, the operation receiver comprising:
- a detector that detects that a user has approached the touch panel;
- an obtaining part that obtains a location information of one of a contact location and an approach location depending on whether the user has approached the touch panel with one point or plural points, the contact location being a location of the touch panel contacted by the user, the approach location being a location of the touch panel having been approached by the user prior to or without contacting the touch panel;
- and
- a receiver that receives, based on whether the user has approached the touch panel with one point or plural points, either a first contact command or a first approach command, the first contact command corresponding to the contact location, the first approach command corresponding to the approach location.
An operation receiver that includes a touch panel, the operation receiver comprising:
- a detector that detects that a user has approached the touch panel;
- an obtaining part that obtains an approach location where the user has approached the touch panel;
- and
- a receiver that receives either a first function command or a second function command depending on whether the user has approached the touch panel with one point or plural points, the first function command corresponding to a first function out of a plurality of functions, the second function command corresponding to a second function different from the first function.
