  • Patent number: 12124755
    Abstract: A display control device includes: processing circuitry that sets a display content projected by a projector in such a manner that a first display object is displayed in a first display area; and that receives a signal detected by a detection sensor from the detection sensor and determines whether or not the first display object is selected by a user. The processing circuitry sets another display content projected by the projector in such a manner that a second display object corresponding to the first display object is displayed in a second display area different from the first display area in a case where it is determined that the first display object is selected, and determines whether or not the second display object is selected, and settles the determination that the first display object is selected in a case where the processing circuitry determines that the second display object is selected.
