INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM
First Claim
1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- an operation tool detection unit for detecting at least a contact operation by an operation tool on the information processing apparatus;
a state detection unit for detecting a static/non-static state or an orientation of the information processing apparatus; and
a mode control unit for controlling a mode for detecting the operation by the operation tool on the information processing apparatus according to the detected static/non-static state or orientation of the information processing apparatus.

Abstract
An information processing apparatus is provided which includes an operation tool detection unit for detecting at least a contact operation by an operation tool on the information processing apparatus, a state detection unit for detecting a static/non-static state or an orientation of the information processing apparatus, and a mode control unit for controlling a mode for detecting an operation by the operation tool on the information processing apparatus according to the detected static/non-static state or orientation of the information processing apparatus. This enables the mode for detecting the operation by the operation tool on the information processing apparatus to be controlled according to the static/non-static state or orientation of the information processing apparatus, so that the detection mode can be appropriately controlled according to an operating state of a user.
