  • Patent number: 10866693
    Abstract: A display control device includes an operation information acquisition unit and a cursor coordinate controller. The cursor coordinate controller is configured to, in a state in which a cursor is set to a predetermined selection item, when operation information is acquired from the operation information acquisition unit, and when, based on a position of the cursor on a display surface of a display device, the selection item is included in a search area that is set in a direction corresponding to an operation direction included in the operation information on the display surface, select the selection item at a position closest to a reference point of the cursor in the direction corresponding to the operation direction as the selection item to be a movement destination of the cursor.

  • Publication number: 20190250776
    Abstract: A vehicular display apparatus includes a display section, a pointing device, and a display control section. The display control section is configured to display an operation screen on the display section. The display control section is configured to generate an image that includes one of an object and an object group across a specified area on the operation screen, and execute processing of setting a part of the one of the object and the object group in a different display mode from the other part of the one of the object and the object group when the operation finger is recognized by a recognition section.

  • Publication number: 20180260096
    Abstract: Operation systems, methods, and programs display a first display screen and a second display screen. Each of the first display screen and the second display screen include a plurality of control images to be selected to control an object. The systems, methods, and programs receive a signal to move a moving point in the display area. Based on the received signal, the systems, methods, and programs determine an amount of movement of the moving point in the display area with respect to an amount of operation in the operation area, and change the amount of movement with respect to the amount of operation when a distance between the plurality of control images on the first display screen is different from a distance between the plurality of control images on the second display screen due to switching from the first display screen to the second display screen.

  • Publication number: 20160267909
    Abstract: A voice recognition device includes a learning unit that learns a relationship between contents of the voice and information on the vehicle by storing recognized contents of the voice and the vehicle information at the time the voice is recognized in association with each other in a storage unit; a processing unit that calculates a recognition accuracy of the uttered voice each time an utterance is made; and an estimation unit that reads the vehicle information under a condition where the value calculated by the processing unit is less than a threshold. In a case where the vehicle information that has been read is in the storage unit, the contents of the voice associated with the vehicle information are estimated as contents of the voice. In a case where the estimation unit estimates contents of the voice, the control unit controls the vehicle on the basis of the estimated contents.

  • Patent number: 9228845
    Abstract: Navigation systems, methods, and programs acquire deviated point information regarding a deviated point where a vehicle traveling a set route has deviated the route, and acquire post-deviation travel history information regarding a travel history after a deviated vehicle has deviated the route at the deviated point. The systems, methods, and programs determine based on the post-deviation travel history information for each of the deviated vehicles whether the deviated vehicle has traveled along a reroute set after deviating the route at the deviated point, and judges whether a rate of the deviated vehicles which were determined as having traveled along the reroute is a first predetermined value or more. If the rate of the deviated vehicles which were determined as having traveled along the reroute is the first predetermined value or more, the systems, methods, and programs determine that guidance of the route is not appropriate.
