Abstract: A simulation control device includes: a display processing section; a measurement section that measures a gaze time of a user with respect to an object that is placed in the virtual space, and decreases a measured value obtained by the measurement corresponding to a time in which the user does not gaze at the object when the user has removed his/her gaze from the object; and a reception section that determines that the object has been selected when the measured value has reached a first threshold value, determines that the selection of the object has been confirmed when the measured value has reached a second threshold value that is larger than the first threshold value, and determines that the selection of the object has been canceled when the measured value has decreased to a third threshold value before the selection of the object is confirmed.

Abstract: A navigation screen generator displays only icons of objects of an object category set as “DISPLAY” in an icon presentation control table on a map image. If a touch occurs at a position on the map image of the navigation screen where no icon is displayed, a controller sets the object category of the object corresponding to the touch position as “DISPLAY” in an icon presentation control table. Then, icons of the objects having the same object category as that of the object corresponding to touch position are displayed on the map image of the navigation screen.

Abstract: An electronic album is created taking into consideration the intentions of the user regarding electronic album creation. Face images are extracted from among a number of images for an electronic album and the face images are displayed on a display screen. A face image of an important person is dragged and dropped onto an important image setting area, and the face image of a person not required to be included in the electronic album is dragged and dropped onto an excluded image setting area. An electronic album in line with user intentions is created so as to increase the proportion of images of an important person and exclude images of unwanted persons.

Abstract: An electronic whiteboard that displays a viewport into a workspace shared in a networked collaboration system is supported by a data structure referred to as a relationship record, which identifies a source object, a target object, and a type of relationship. In an attachment type relationship, the location of the source object is determined relative to the location of the target object. Therefore, input gestures that identify the target object, and move or resize the target object, result in a corresponding movement or resizing of the source object. Input gestures that identify the source object can be used to reposition the source object relative to the target object, or to disconnect the source object from the target object. Also, input gestures can be utilized to connect a source object to a target object in a relationship record.

Abstract: In various embodiments, an interactive display overlay system is configured to serve as a gatekeeper for detected inputs on an interactive display screen (e.g., such as an interactive whiteboard or touch screen display) that is displaying a transparent overlay layer over an underlying software application. In various embodiments, the system is configured to detect an input at a particular location on the interactive display screen and determine whether there is a widget at that particular location on the transparent overlay layer before passing the input on to the underlying software application. In particular embodiments, the system is configured to modify inputs detected at the overlay layer that are proximate to a widget to an edge of the widget prior to passing on modified input data to the underlying software application.

The multiple interface layers may be layered such that at least one interface layer, of the multiple interface layers, at least partially obscures at least one other interface layer of the multiple interface layers. The device may display, via a display of the device, the multiple interface layers in a manner that permits user interactions with more than one interface layer of the multiple interface layers. The device may detect a user interaction with an interface layer of the multiple interface layers displayed via the display. The device may adjust the manner in which the multiple interface layers are displayed based on the user interaction.
