Terminal apparatus, display system, display method, and recording medium for switching between pointer mode and touch-panel mode based on handheld activation

摘要

To improve ease of operation in a case where a display device and a small terminal apparatus are connected to each other, and coordinated display is performed. When a contact or approach of an object having a size greater than or equal to a threshold value with or toward the surface of a display panel is detected, a video or an instruction corresponding to the motion detected by the motion sensor is output. The display device, on the basis of the video or the instruction that is output, displays a video in which the position of a pointer or the like is changed in response to the motion detected by a motion sensor.

主权项

1. A terminal apparatus comprising:
a display panel arranged on a housing; a display processing unit that processes an image displayed on the display panel; an output unit that externally outputs the image processed by the display processing unit or an instruction regarding the image to an external device; a touch-panel that detects a contact or approach of an object with or toward a surface of the display panel; a motion sensor that detects a motion of the housing; and a control unit having circuitry that when the touch-panel detects the contact or approach of the object having a greater size than or equal to a predetermined size, controls the output unit to output an image or an instruction corresponding to the motion detected by the motion sensor, wherein when the control unit detects the contact or approach of the object of greater than or equal to a predetermined size, the control unit deactivates the touch-panel from detecting further contact or approach of the object in response to the output unit being activated to control an image on the external device based on a motion of the housing.
