Abstract
A display system includes an HMD and a control device. The control device can execute switching between a plurality of user interfaces. When the user interfaces are switched without change of display of an image display unit, a notification is made by the control device. When the user interfaces are switched with change of display of the image display unit, a notification is made by the HMD.
Claims11
A display system comprising:
- a head-mounted display apparatus that includes a first display unit and is to be mounted on a head of a user, and a control device to be coupled to the head-mounted display apparatus, wherein
- the control device includes a second display unit and a touch sensor disposed so as to overlap with the second display unit,
- the control device executes switching between a plurality of user interfaces including a first user interface and a second user interface, the first user interface being configured to display a first input screen on the second display unit to detect an input to the touch sensor, the second user interface being configured to display a second input screen on the second display unit to detect an input to the touch sensor, and
- a notification is made when the user interfaces are switched.
A display system comprising:
- a head-mounted display apparatus that includes a first display unit and is to be mounted on a head of a user;
- and
- a control device to be coupled to the head-mounted display apparatus, wherein
- the control device includes:
- a second display unit;
- a touch sensor disposed so as to overlap with the second display unit;
- an application executing unit configured to execute an application that uses detected data of the touch sensor;
- a detecting unit configured to acquire the detected data of the touch sensor;
- and
- an event informing unit configured to inform the application executing unit of the detected data of the touch sensor and an operation event of the touch sensor, and
- at least any one of a type of the operation event or the detected data informed by the event informing unit to the application executing unit is changed in accordance with a user interface displayed on the second display unit.
A display method by a head-mounted display apparatus that includes a first display unit and is to be mounted on a head of a user, and by a control device that is to be coupled to the head-mounted display apparatus and includes a second display unit and a touch sensor disposed so as to overlap with the second display unit, the method comprising:
- by the control device, executing switching between a plurality of user interfaces including a first user interface and a second user interface, the first user interface being configured to display a first input screen on the second display unit to detect an input on the touch sensor, the second user interface being configured to display a second input screen on the second display unit to detect an input on the touch sensor;
- and
- making a notification when the user interfaces are switched.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer-executable program for controlling a control device that is to be coupled to a head-mounted display apparatus that includes a first display unit and is to be mounted on a head of a user, the control device including a second display unit and a touch sensor disposed so as to overlap with the second display unit, the program
- executing switching between a plurality of user interfaces including a first user interface and a second user interface, the first user interface being configured to display a first input screen on the second display unit to detect an input on the touch sensor, the second user interface being configured to display a second input screen on the second display unit to detect an input on the touch sensor and
- making a notification when the user interfaces are switched.
