1. A display control system, comprising:
- a display unit capable of displaying, on a single screen, images that are different from each other when viewed from different sides;
a touch-type operation input portion disposed on the screen of the display unit;
an operation-input-direction identification portion that determines from which of the different sides an operation input is performed on the touch-type operation input portion;
an operation-input detector that detects an operation input from the side identified by the operation-input-direction identification portion; and
a controller that causes an image corresponding to the operation input from the identified side to be displayed on the screen of the display unit, in accordance with an output from the operation-input detector.

Abstract
A system includes a display, a touch panel, a controlling unit, and an LCD driver. The display can display, on a screen, different images when viewed from different sides. The touch panel is disposed on the screen. The controlling unit and the LCD driver cooperate to control the display. In one embodiment, identification signals for uniquely identifying the different sides are generated and are electrically applied to respective operators. A component of the identification signal transmitted through the body of the operator is detected to thereby identify from which side operation input was performed on the touch panel.
