Patent number: 7567238Abstract: A medical treatment support system has operations A to G on a display screen to easily handle respective data on a sheet. Operation A facilitates the browsing of a large amount of data. Operations B and C allow the user to easily copy and move data. Operation D is a scale function to facilitate measurement. Using operation E, the operator can easily divide an area into segments only by drawing a horizontal line. Operation F is used to change a display angle of image data displayed on the screen. Operation G allows the user to browse respective data classified for each sheet label. The new functions of the single-unit input/output pen-tablet device can be intuitively operated by a user not versed in the functions. This consequently mitigates the load of complex input operation which interrupts thinking of the user and which hinders diagnosis mitigated in medical treatment.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2001Date of Patent: July 28, 2009Assignee: NEC CorporationInventors: Mamiko Sugimoto, Takeo Igarashi, Kazuo Nakazawa, Takashi Ashihara

Publication number: 20090040224Abstract: In a computer 20 with a three-dimensional shape conversion program installed therein, a coordinate processing unit 21 obtains two-dimensional coordinate data of a contour stroke SS input through the user's operation of a mouse 50 or another suitable input unit. A 2D/3D modeling unit 22 performs two-dimensional modeling based on the obtained two-dimensional coordinate data and thereby generates two-dimensional model data regarding a two-dimensional pattern, while performing three-dimensional modeling based on the generated two-dimensional model data and generates three-dimensional model data regarding a three-dimensional shape obtained by expanding the two-dimensional pattern. A 2D model data regulator 23 adjusts the two-dimensional model data to make a corresponding contour of the three-dimensional shape defined by the three-dimensional model data substantially consistent with the input contour stroke SS.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 1, 2008Publication date: February 12, 2009Applicant: THE UNIVERSITY OF TOKYOInventors: Takeo Igarashi, Yuki Mori

Publication number: 20040160458Abstract: Speed-dependent automatic zooming through content such as documents and images is disclosed. In one embodiment, a method first receives an input, such as a user input on an input device, like a joystick, a mouse, a trackball, or other pointing device. The input is mapped to either speed of navigation through a content space, or scale of the content space while being navigated. The other of speed or scale to which the input was not mapped is then determined, based on the relationship that scale times speed equals a constant. The content space is then navigated, based on the speed or scale mapped from the input, and the scale or speed determined.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 9, 2004Publication date: August 19, 2004Inventors: Takeo Igarashi, Eric Horvitz, Kenneth P.

Patent number: 6747680Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for navigating through a content or document in a display, wherein as the rate of such navigation increases, the scale of the document decreases. Thus, more of the document is viewable in the display. One method involves receiving an input, such as a user input on an input device which may include a joystick, a mouse, a trackball, or other pointing device. The input is mapped to either a speed of navigation through a content space or scale of the content space while being navigated. The other of speed or scale to which the output was not mapped is determined according to the relationship that scale multiplied by speed equals a constant value. The content space is subsequently navigated based on the speed or scale mapped from the input and the scale or speed is determined.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 1999Date of Patent: June 8, 2004Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Takeo Igarashi, Eric Horvitz, Kenneth P.

Patent number: 6584479Abstract: A primary body of data is displayable on a screen and a supporting body of data is relatable to an annotation tag present in the primary body of textual data. An annotation tag having a predetermined size in the primary body of data is selected, and negotiations ensue between the primary body of data and the supporting body to determine a space into which the supporting body of data can be fitted while maintaining a substantially unobstructed view of the primary body of data. Generally, this negotiated space is sized larger than the original predetermined size of the annotation tag. An animation sequence is used to position the supporting body of data in the negotiated space.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 1998Date of Patent: June 24, 2003Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: Bay-Wei Chang, Polle T.
