Abstract

A mobile terminal device includes a display section having a display surface, a first detecting section which detects a touch input to the display surface, a second detecting section which detects a touch input to a surface facing a back side of the display surface, and a screen controlling section which executes a control to change a screen displayed on the display section based on a combination of the touch input detected by the first detecting section and the touch input detected by the second detecting section.

Claims

1. A mobile terminal device, comprising:

a display section having a display surface;

a first detecting section which detects a touch input to the display surface;

a second detecting section which detects a touch input to a surface facing a back side of the display surface; and

a screen controlling section which executes a control to change a screen displayed on the display section based on a combination of the touch input detected by the first detecting section and the touch input detected by the second detecting section.

2. The mobile terminal device according to claim 1, wherein the first detecting section detects a position of the touch input to the display surface, and

the second detecting section detects a position of the touch input to the surface facing the back side of the display surface;

and

the screen controlling section executes a control to change the screen displayed on the display surface based on a combination of a first input position detected by the first detecting section and a second input position detected by the second detecting section.

3. The mobile terminal device according to claim 2, wherein the screen controlling section executes the control including at least one of an enlargement, reduction, movement or rotation to at least apart of the screen based on the change of a relationship between the first input position and the second input position.

4. The mobile terminal device according to claim 2, wherein the display controlling section executes the control moving an icon according to movements of the first input position and the second input position when the first detecting section and the second detecting section detect the touch input at a position corresponding to an area where the icon included in the screen is displayed.

5. The mobile terminal device according to claim 2, wherein the display controlling section executes the control to change the screen to delete an object displayed on the first input position when at least the first input position or the second input position is changed while a relative distance between the first input position and the second input position is within the predetermined range.

6. The mobile terminal device according to claim 5, wherein the display controlling section executes the control to delete the icon based on detecting the touch input at the position corresponding to the area where the icon included in the screen is displayed by the first detecting section and the second detecting section, and determining the first input position or the second input position is changed on the area.

7. A storage medium retaining a computer program which provides a computer of a mobile terminal device comprising a display section having a display surface, a first detecting section which detects a touch input to the display surface, and a second detecting section which detects a touch input to the surface facing a back side of the display surface, with a function to change a screen displayed on the display section based on a combination of the touch input detected by the first detecting section and the touch input detected by the second detecting section.

8. A method of a display control of a mobile terminal device comprising a display section having a display surface, a first detecting section which detects a touch input to the display surface, and a second detecting section which detects a touch input to a surface facing a back side of the display surface, the method including steps of:

determining the touch inputs to the display surface and the surface facing a back side of the display surface based on outputs of the first detecting section and the second detecting section; and

changing a screen displayed on the display section, based on a combination of the touch input to the display surface and the touch input to the surface facing a back side of the display surface.
