  • Patent number: 8922351
    Abstract: A wireless output unit of a remote controller 2 having a touch pad 23 or a touch panel wirelessly outputs a coordinate value associated with a continuous contact input for the touch pad 23 to a television 1. A reception unit of the television 1 wirelessly receives the coordinate value associated with the continuous contact input output from the wireless output unit. A display processing unit displays on a display unit 14 a pointer 3 moving on the basis of the coordinate value received by the reception unit. An output unit outputs, when the continuous contact input is finished, acceptance information indicating that an input for an object T displayed on the display unit 14 is accepted at a final coordinate value for the pointer 3 displayed on the display unit 14.

  • Publication number: 20140043535
    Abstract: A wireless output unit of a remote controller having a touch pad or a touch panel wirelessly outputs a coordinate value associated with a continuous contact input for the touch pad to a television. A reception unit of the television wirelessly receives the coordinate value associated with the continuous contact input. A display processing unit displays on a display unit a pointer moving on the basis of the coordinate value received by the reception unit. A reducing unit reduces the moving rate of the pointer 3 on the basis of the coordinate value received by the reception unit, when the distance between an object T displayed on the display unit and the pointer 3 displayed on the display unit is within a predetermined distance. An output unit outputs, when the continuous contact input is finished, acceptance information indicating that an input for an object T displayed on the display unit is accepted at a final coordinate value for the pointer 3 displayed on the display unit.
