Information processing device having unlocking function
First Claim
1. An information processing device having a touch panel comprising:
- a display having a touch sensitivity and a lock screen configured to concurrently and separately display a main area to display a lock image, and an auxiliary area to display an unlock icon initially disposed at a first position in a locked state and moveable in a predetermined direction to a second position according to a user'"'"'s operation;
an operation part configured to accept the user'"'"'s operation using the unlock icon in the auxiliary area of the display;
a storage unit configured to store a plurality of application images implementing a plurality of applications that are listed in a predetermined order and from which an initial image is selected to be initially displayed as the lock image in advance;
a timer configured to count a first time, the first time counted from a start timing when the unlock icon is moved from the first position to the second position in the auxiliary area to when the unlock icon is released by the user'"'"'s operation, and a second time following the first time, the second time counted from when the unlock icon is disposed at the second position to when the unlock icon is released by the user'"'"'s operation; and
a controller configured to control the display according to the user'"'"'s operation, whereinthe controller is configured to unlock the locked state if the user'"'"'s operation comprises an unlock instruction and change the lock image from the initial image to a next image selected from among the plurality of application images if the user'"'"'s operation comprises an application switching instruction, and the controller is further configured to;
(i) determine the unlock instruction and thereby define the initial image displayed in the main area when the unlock icon is released before the first time has elapsed from the start timing,(ii) determine the application switching instruction to display the next image in the main area when the first time has elapsed from the start timing,(iii) define the next image displayed in the main area when the unlock icon is released before the second time has elapsed after the first time, and(iv) determine a secondary application switching instruction to change the next image to a further image selected from among the plurality of application images when the second time has elapsed from the first time.

Abstract
An information processing device having a touch panel includes an operation part, a display, an operation content determination part, and a display control part. The operation part displays an unlock icon while the display displays the predetermined lock screen in the locked state. The operation content determination part determines whether or not to release the locked state and whether to change the display content of the lock screen in response to a user'"'"'s operation on the unlock icon. The display control part changes the display content of the lock screen based on the determination result. The unlock icon can be moved from the initial position to an end mark along a slide bar via a user'"'"'s operation. The operation content determination part determines the instructed content of a user'"'"'s operation based on the time length of a user'"'"'s operation on the unlock icon or the position of the unlock icon.

5. An information processing method adapted to an information processing device having a touch panel having a lock screen configured to concurrently and separately display a main area to display a lock image and an auxiliary area to display an unlock icon initially disposed at a first position in a locked state and moveable in a predetermined direction to a second position according to a user'"'"'s operation, comprising:
-
displaying an initial image, which is selected from among a plurality of application images implementing a plurality of applications that are listed in a predetermined order, to be initially displayed as the lock image on the lock screen; counting a first time, the first time counted from a start timing when the unlock icon is moved from the first position to the second position in the auxiliary area to when the unlock icon is released by the user'"'"'s operation, and a second time following the first time, the second time counted from when the unlock icon is disposed at the second position to when the unlock icon is released by the user'"'"'s operation; and determining whether the user'"'"'s operation indicates either an unlock instruction to unlock the locked or an application switching instruction to change the lock image from the initial image to a next image selected from among the plurality of application images by; (i) determining the unlock instruction and thereby defining the initial image displayed in the main area when the unlock icon is released before the first time elapsed from the start timing, (ii) determining the application switching instruction to display the next image in the main area when the first time has elapsed from the start timing, (iii) defining the next image displayed in the main area when the unlock icon is released before the second time has elapsed after the first time; and (iv) determining a secondary application switching instruction to further change the next image to a further image selected from among the plurality of application images when the second time has elapsed from the first time. - View Dependent Claims (6, 8, 10, 12)
