  • Publication number: 20240272767
    Abstract: According to one aspect, it becomes possible to easily modify a 3D object which is displayed in a virtual reality space. A method is performed by a computer configured to be communicable with a position detection device that includes a drawing surface and that, in operation, detects a position of an electronic pen on the drawing surface. The method includes rendering, in a virtual reality space, a first object that is a 3D object, rendering, near the first object, a display surface that is a 3D object, rendering, on the display surface, a 3D line that is a 3D object generated based on the position of the electronic pen on the drawing surface, wherein the position of the electronic pen is detected by the position detection device, and outputting the first object, the display surface, and the 3D line, which are the 3D objects, to a display.

  • Publication number: 20230280844
    Abstract: A coordinate input device is capable of enabling efficient input work by configuring an operation part so as to be operable by a hand opposite to a hand holding an indicator. The coordinate input device includes a position detection sensor which, in operation, detects a position indicated by an indicator, a casing including a rear surface and housing the position detection sensor, the rear surface facing an input surface, the input surface being a surface on which an input operation for inputting the position indicated by the indicator is performed and corresponding to a position detection region of the position detection sensor, and at least one grip part disposed on the rear surface of the casing are included. The at least one grip part includes a projecting portion that projects in a direction intersecting the rear surface and one or more operation parts are disposed on the projecting portion.
