Abstract
An information processing system includes a pen having a vibration generator; a display unit with a screen; a touch sensor unit to detect a contact position of the pen on the screen of the display unit; an angle detector to detect a pen angle, which indicates a direction on the screen in which the pen in contact with the screen is tilted; and a pen vibration control unit to generate a vibration waveform signal based on the pen angle detected by the angle detector and a movement direction of the pen to vibrate the vibration generator based on the generated vibration waveform signal.
Claims11
An information processing system comprising:
- a pen having a vibration generator;
- a display with a screen;
- a touch sensor configured to detect a contact position of the pen on the screen of the display;
- an angle detector configured to detect a pen angle, which indicates a direction on the screen in which the pen in contact with the screen is tilted;
- and
- a pen vibration controller configured to generate a vibration waveform signal based on the pen angle detected by the angle detector and a movement direction of the pen to vibrate the vibration generator based on the generated vibration waveform signal.
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a display with a screen;
- a touch sensor configured to detect a contact position of a pen having a vibration generator on the screen of the display;
- an angle detector configured to detect a pen angle, which indicates a direction on the screen in which the pen in contact with the screen is tilted;
- and
