Information processing apparatus, information processing method and program associated with a graphical user interface with proximity sensor triggered menu options

摘要

The present disclosure provides an electronic device, the device including, processor, a display, and an interface configured to, detect non-contact proximity of an operation member, determine whether the member is within a first selection region corresponding to a first selection object; and display a second selection object adjacent to the first selection object when it is determined that the member is within the first selection region.

主权项

1. An electronic device, the device comprising a processor configured to:
determine whether an operation member points to a first selection region corresponding to a first selection object; control a display to display at least one second selection object near to the first selection object when it is determined that the member points to the first selection region, wherein said at least one second selection object is at least one selectable menu object wherein each one of said at least one selectable menu object is associated with a user input command associated with the first selection object; detect a motion of the member; and determine a direction of the detected motion, wherein the processor selects said at least one second selection object based on the determined direction, and wherein said at least one second selection object is selected when the operating member is detected to no longer point to both the first selection object and said at least one second selection object which is being selected.
