INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD AND PROGRAM
First Claim
1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a display section that has a display surface and is capable of displaying information on the display surface;
a touch panel that has a contact surface and is capable of detecting a position in the display surface where an operation tool has contacted with as a contact position;
a pressure value detection section that detects a pressure value which is a size of a pressure applied to the contact surface by a contact between the operation tool and the contact surface;
a process control section that specifies a first processing or a second processing as a processing subject to be executed in accordance with a change of the pressure value detected by the pressure value detection section;
a first processing section that executes the first processing when the process control section specifies the first processing as a processing subject to be executed; and
a second processing section that executes the second processing when the process control section specifies the second processing as a processing subject to be executed.

Abstract
There is provided an information processing apparatus including a display section capable of displaying information on its display surface, a touch panel capable of detecting a position in the display surface where an operation tool has contacted with as a contact position, a pressure value detection section detecting a pressure value which is a size of a pressure applied to the contact surface by a contact between the operation tool and the contact surface, a process control section specifying a first processing or a second processing as a processing subject to be executed in accordance with a change of the detected pressure value, a first processing section executing the first processing when the first processing is specified to be a processing subject to be executed, and a second processing section executing the second processing when the second processing is specified to be a processing subject to be executed.

13. A information processing method comprising the steps of:
-
detecting a pressure value which is a size of a pressure applied to a contact surface by a contact between an operation tool and the contact surface by a pressure value detection section of an information processing apparatus which includes a display section that has a display surface and is capable of displaying information on the display surface, a touch panel that has the contact surface and is capable of detecting a position in the display surface where the operation tool has contacted with as a contact position, the pressure value detection section, a process control section, a first processing section, and a second processing section; specifying, by the process control section, a first processing or a second processing as a processing subject to be executed in accordance with a change of the pressure value detected by the pressure value detection section; executing, by the first processing section, the first processing when the process control section specifies the first processing as a processing subject to be executed; and executing, by the second processing section, the second processing when the process control section specifies the second processing as a processing subject to be executed.

14. A program causing a computer to function as an information processing apparatus including:
-
a display section that has a display surface and is capable of displaying information on the display surface; a touch panel that has a contact surface and is capable of detecting a position in the display surface where an operation tool has contacted with as a contact position; a pressure value detection section that detects a pressure value which is a size of a pressure applied to the contact surface by a contact between the operation tool and the contact surface; a process control section that specifies a first processing or a second processing as a processing subject to be executed in accordance with a change of the pressure value detected by the pressure value detection section; a first processing section that executes the first processing when the process control section specifies the first processing to be a processing subject to be executed; and a second processing section that executes the second processing when the process control section specifies the second processing to be a processing subject to be executed.
