Abstract
An information display system has display unit having a display screen, a control unit for controlling the displayed information, and an input devices for inputting a user'"'"'s control command. The input devices may be a distance detecting sensor adapted to detect the position of a user controlled object in a sensing field arranged at a given distance in front of the screen. The control unit is adapted to determine a display control command based on the detected object position.

24. Information display system comprising a display unit having a display screen and a control unit for controlling the displayed information in the display screen, the information display system comprising:
-
a first sensor for emitting an ultrasonic to a first direction on an field facing on the display screen and for detecting reflection of the ultrasonic; and
a second sensor for emitting an ultrasonic to a second direction on an field facing on the display screen and for sensing reflection of the ultrasonic. wherein the control unit displays some prompt for receiving for a input from user, and wherein the control unit calculates a first distance between the first sensor and a position of the reflection of the ultrasonic based on a difference between the ultrasonic from the first sensor and the reflection of the ultrasonic, calculates a second distance between the second sensor and a position of the reflection of the ultrasonic based on a difference between the ultrasonic from the second sensor and the reflection of the ultrasonic, calculates a position of the input on an field facing on the display screen based on the first and second distances, determines the prompt on the display screen facing the position of the input based on the position of the prompt on the display screen and the position of the input, and controls the displayed information according to the determined prompt. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26)
