INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND OPERATION METHOD OF INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS
First Claim
1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- an apparatus body including a body having a keyboard and a display unit attached to the body so as to be opened and closed;
an acceleration sensor mounted on the apparatus body;
a gesture motion determination unit mounted on the apparatus body and determining a reference posture of a holding state of the apparatus body taken when a user executes a given gesture function while holding the apparatus body based on acceleration detected by the acceleration sensor as well as determining a gesture motion executed by the user by detecting posture change of the apparatus body from the reference posture based on acceleration detected by the acceleration sensor; and
an operation execution unit mounted on the apparatus body and executing a given operation corresponding to the gesture motion executed by the user based on the determination result in the gesture motion determination unit.

6. An operation method of an information processing apparatus including an apparatus body including a body having a keyboard and a display unit attached to the body so as to be opened and closed, an acceleration sensor mounted on the apparatus body, a gesture motion determination unit determining a gesture motion executed with respect to the apparatus body by a user and an operation execution unit executing a given operation corresponding to the gesture motion, the method comprising the steps of:
-
determining a reference posture of a holding state of the apparatus body taken when the user executes a given gesture function while holding the apparatus body based on acceleration detected by the acceleration sensor by the gesture motion determination unit; determining a gesture motion executed by the user by detecting posture change of the apparatus body from the reference posture based on acceleration detected by the acceleration sensor by the gesture motion determination unit; and executing a given operation corresponding to the determined gesture motion executed by the user based on the determination result of the gesture motion by the operation execution unit.
