Remote control device and display device
First Claim
1. A remote control device comprising an optical indicator device in which a light-emitting element is mounted that emits as output a position detection light signal, and a light-receiving device that receives as input the position detection light signal and obtains a position signal from a detected light-reception signal, wherein the optical indicator device comprises:
- a light axis control portion that displaces a light axis of the light-emitting element to displacement positions so that the light axis of the light-emitting element has an inclination angle with respect to a reference axis of the optical indicator device, and a light emission control portion that causes a position detection light signal to be emitted as output from the light-emitting element when the light axis of the light-emitting element is in the displacement positions.

Abstract
In an embodiment of the present invention, a remote control device is provided with an optical indicator device and a light-receiving device. A display device is provided with a display portion that displays a pointer and a frame portion that accommodates the light-receiving device. By displacing a light-emitting element sequencially to a plurality of displacement positions, supplying a light emission signal to the light-emitting element at each displacement position and to cause the light-emitting element to emit as output a position detection light signal, then sequencially detecting light-reception signals that are received as input by a position detection light-receiving element of the light-receiving device, and performing arithmetic processing as appropriate on the detected light-reception signals, a displacement state of a reference axis displacement angle is detected. Movement of a pointer is controlled by using the displacement state of the reference axis displacement angle as an indicating signal for the pointer.
