Abstract
An image displaying device includes a first display portion capable of changing display contents and provided at a surface side of a main body, a second display portion capable of changing display contents and provided at a lower surface side of the main body and a detector which detects a turning-over of the main body. The display contents of the first or second display portion is changed by a display controller depending on detected results of the detector.
Claims3
An image displaying device, comprising:
- a first display portion capable of changing display contents and provided at a front surface side of a main body;
- a second display portion capable of changing display contents and provided at a back surface side of said main body;
- a detector which detects a turning-over of said main body;
- and
- a display controller capable of changing the display contents of said first or second display portion depending on a detected result of said detector, wherein
- said detector detects whether the turning-over of said main body is in the first direction or in the second direction based on a transition of ON state to OFF state of each detector and vice versa, wherein said detector has a spherical member disposed within a space provided in said main body and switches arranged on upper, lower, right and left sides of said space to detect the turning-over of said main body when said spherical member turns on/off said switches.
3 more elements
An image displaying device, comprising:
- a plurality of sheet-like image displaying members having two image display sides capable of changing display contents to display a different image, the plurality of sheet-like image displaying members being bound to each other so as to open and close each of said image display sides;
- a detector that detects whether each of said image display sides are opened or closed;
- and
- a display controller that changes display contents of one or a plurality of certain image display sides depending on a detected result of said detector, wherein said display controller changes the display contents of said image displaying member into subsequent display contents or previous display contents depending on a page turning-over direction of said image displaying member, wherein said detector detects whether each of said display sides is in an opened state or in a closed state by detecting a curve deformation of said image displaying member.

- a detector that detects whether each of said image display sides are opened or closed;
- and
- a display controller that changes display contents of one or a plurality of certain image display sides depending on a detected result of said detector, wherein said display controller changes the display contents of said image displaying member into subsequent display contents or previous display contents depending on a page turning-over direction of said image displaying member, wherein said detector also discriminates a page turning-over direction of said image displaying member by detecting a curve deformation of said image displaying member.
