INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE
First Claim
1. An information processing device, comprising:
- two touch sensors each including a detection surface for detecting a position of an object thereon, the two touch sensors being arranged to be opposed to each other;
reference determination means for determining at least one of a reference point and a reference axis based on one or a plurality of positions detected by one touch sensor of the two touch sensors; and
operation input determination means for evaluating a content detected by another touch sensor of the two touch sensors based on the at least one of the reference point and the reference axis, which is determined by the reference determination means, to determine a content of an operation input of a user.

Abstract
Provided is an information processing device which allows a user to provide, regardless of a position or direction of a touch sensor, an operation input to the touch sensor at an arbitrary position or in an arbitrary direction. The information processing device includes two touch sensors each including a detection surface for detecting a position of an object thereon, the two touch sensors being arranged to be opposed to each other, determines at least one of a reference point and a reference axis based on one or a plurality of positions detected by one touch sensor of the two touch sensors, and evaluates a content detected by another touch sensor of the two touch sensors based on the at least one of the determined reference point and the determined reference axis to determine a content of an operation input of a user.

5. A method of controlling an information processing device connected to two touch sensors each including a detection surface for detecting a position of an object thereon, the two touch sensors being arranged to be opposed to each other, the method comprising:
-
a reference determination step of determining at least one of a reference point and a reference axis based on one or a plurality of positions detected by one touch sensor of the two touch sensors; and an operation input determination step of evaluating a content detected by another touch sensor of the two touch sensors based on the at least one of the reference point and the reference axis, which is determined in the reference determination step, to determine a content of an operation input of a user.

6. A computer readable information storage medium having stored thereon a program for controlling a computer, which is connected to two touch sensors each including a detection surface for detecting a position of an object thereon, the two touch sensors being arranged to be opposed to each other, to function as:
-
reference determination means for determining at least one of a reference point and a reference axis based on one or a plurality of positions detected by one touch sensor of the two touch sensors; and operation input determination means for evaluating a content detected by another touch sensor of the two touch sensors based on the at least one of the reference point and the reference axis, which is determined by the reference determination means, to determine a content of an operation input of a user.
