Abstract: One embodiment provides an information processing apparatus, including: a sound synthesizer configured to output a combined sound signal of an alarm sound signal and a remaining sound signal other than the alarm sound signal; a sound separator configured to separate the combined sound signal into a human voice signal and a background sound signal; an alarm sound detector configured to detect whether a background sound corresponding to the background sound signal output from the sound separator includes an alarm sound or not; and an alarm sound receiver configured to, when the alarm sound detector detects that the background sound includes the alarm sound, read the alarm sound signal corresponding to the detected alarm sound, and further combine the read alarm sound signal with the combined sound signal to thereby output an adjusted combined sound signal.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a touch manipulation portion, a touch input detector, a user manipulation portion, and an operation module. The touch manipulation portion is configured to receive a multitouch input. The touch input detector is configured to detect a single touch input that is made with the touch manipulation portion. The user manipulation portion is provided separately from the touch manipulation portion and can be manipulated by a user. The operation module is configured, when the touch input detector detects the single touch input and the user manipulation portion is manipulated, to perform an operation that is similar to an operation to be performed in response to the multitouch input.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a display, a touch panel, a detector, and a controller. The touch panel is provided on the display. The detector detects motion of the electronic apparatus. The controller changes a display position of an image displayed on the display when the motion is detected.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus that includes a pointing device for moving a cursor to a position on a display screen; a monitoring unit that monitors whether or not the pointed position is stationary for a predetermined time period; and a text extraction unit that determines a character displayed on the pointed position and extracts a target text portion that includes the pointed to character. A text analysis unit generates a search keyword that is suitable for performing a search operation, based on analysis of the target text portion, generates an attribute representing a subject category, based on the search keyword, and generates a search intention item representing intended subject content to be searched, based on the attribute; and a display controller that controls the display of an overlayed search window menu that facilitates selection of the search keyword and/or the search intention item for a search operation.

Abstract: A decoder circuit that can prevent the delay of decoder output includes a switch that is put into an ON state when a node A of an NMOS region is not an output channel of a selected gradation voltage. The switch is connected to the node A. Thus, a voltage raised by electric charges accumulated by a coupling capacity C1 caused in the node A when the gradation voltage is outputted from an output terminal of the decoder output can be discharged by the switch in the ON state.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an information processing apparatus, includes notice unit for raising an alarm to call attention, control unit for setting intensity associated with an attention degree of the alarm of the notice unit, detection unit for detecting a determined state, and execution unit for urging the notice unit to output the alarm, irrespective of setting the intensity by the control unit, if the predetermined state is detected by the detection unit.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an information processing apparatus including a display unit and an inclination detection unit detecting an inclination of its main body includes a direction instruction unit, a reference inclination storage unit, an inclination difference output unit, and a scroll unit. The direction instruction unit instructs a scroll direction in which a display range of the display unit is to be moved. The reference inclination storage unit stores, as a reference inclination, an inclination in the scroll direction among inclinations detected by the inclination detection unit. The inclination difference output unit outputs a difference between the reference inclination and an inclination in the scroll direction. The scroll unit moves the display range on the display unit according to the difference outputted from the inclination difference output unit.

Abstract: The present invention provides a decoder circuit that can prevent the delay of decoder output. Namely, a switch that is put into an ON state when a node A of an NMOS region is not an output channel of a selected gradation voltage, is connected to the node A. Thus, a voltage raised by electric charges being accumulating by a coupling capacity C1 caused in the node A when the gradation voltage is outputted from an output terminal of the decoder output can be discharged by the switch in the ON state.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an inputting unit for inputting a first control instruction to change a display status of a screen, includes: an acceleration acquiring section configured to acquire an acceleration applied to the inputting unit; an acceleration determining section configured to output a first signal when the acceleration exceeds a certain numerical value; a user's instruction acquiring section configured to allow a user to input a second signal at the inputting unit at any point of time; and a focus change determining section configured to output a second control instruction to move a focus in the screen when the first signal and the second signal are input.

Abstract: A data processing device includes plural input modes which is capable of, for instance, automatically determining whether the device is in a notebook mode or a tablet mode, thereby enabling a user to use the data processing device by use of an interface suitable for the mode without performing any particular operation for choosing the interface. The data processing device includes a display which is integrally configured with a tablet, a mode determination section which determines an input mode on basis of the tablet, and a mode controller which switches a user interface on basis of the result of determination of the mode determination section. When configured as described above, the convertible data processing device can automatically determine whether the device is in a notebook mode or a tablet mode, and provide a user with an interface suitable for the mode. Accordingly, comfortable operability can be realized.
