Abstract
An input display device includes a display capable of displaying an image, a touch panel including at least one transparent three-dimensional UI unit on a front face thereof, a touch sensing unit configured to sense a touch operation on the touch panel based on a change in electrostatic capacitance of the touch panel, and a display control unit capable of displaying an image related to the operation in a region where the three-dimensional UI unit of the display is present. The three-dimensional UI unit includes an upper face and a side face connected to the upper face, and a function of reflecting an image related to an operation is imparted to the side face.
Claims8
An input display device comprising:
- a display for displaying an image,
- a capacitive touch panel attached to the display,
- at least one transparent three-dimensional operation unit on a front face of the touch panel,
- a sensing unit configured to sense a touch operation including proximity to the touch panel;
- and
- a display control unit configured to display an image related to an operation in a region where the operation unit of the display is present,
- wherein the operation unit has an upper face and a side face connected to the upper face, and the side face has a function of reflecting an image related to the operation.
