Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/067537
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A manual control action input device (1) identifies the part of the hand of an operator that has contacted a dome-shaped touch panel (11) as being the palm when the optical intensity of the ambient light passing through the touch panel (11) is less than a prescribed value, and identifies the part of the hand of the operator that has contacted the dome-shaped touch panel (11) as being a fingertip when the optical intensity is at or above a prescribed value. When the manual control action input device (1) identifies the palm, the manual control action input device (1) accepts a rotary sliding action performed by the palm on the touch panel (11) corresponding to a video selection action on a receiver (2), and accepts a linear sliding action performed by the palm corresponding to a channel changeover action on the receiver (2). When the manual control action input device (1) identifies a fingertip, the manual control action input device (1) accepts a rotary sliding action or linear sliding action performed by the fingertip on the touch panel (11) corresponding to an action for controlling reproduction operation of an image recording/reproduction device (5) by the receiver (2).
