Abstract
This display control device can effectively reduce power consumption while assuring visibility of a display area. A display control device (400) carries out display control for a display panel with an integrated touch panel and has: a touch operation information acquisition unit (410) that acquires touch operation information from the touch panel; a user operation information estimation unit (420) that estimates a region of interest, which is a region that a user is giving attention to, from the display region on the display panel on the basis of the touch operation information that is acquired; and a display control indication unit (440) that sets the brightness level for regions of non-interest, which is a region other than the region of interest estimated within the display region, lower than the set brightness level.

18. A display control apparatus that performs display control on a touch-panel-incorporated display panel, the display control apparatus comprising:
-
a touch operation information acquiring section that acquires touch operation information from the touch panel; a user operation information estimation section that determines whether or not a user is performing a pinch-out operation based on the acquired touch operation information, and that estimates, upon determining that the user is performing a pinch-out operation, a region between a plurality of finger touch regions where the user is performing the pinch-out operation in a display region of the display panel, as a target region which is a region of interest of the user; and a display control instruction section that sets a brightness level of a non-target region to be lower than a set brightness level, the non-target region being a region other than the target region estimated in the display region, wherein the user operation information estimation section determines that the user is performing the pinch-out operation on condition that a distance between a first touch region and a second touch region is less than a predetermined threshold, and estimates a region between the first touch region and the second touch region as the target region, the first touch region a region having a largest area in the touch regions indicated by the touch operation information, the second touch region being a region having a second largest area in the touch regions. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 25)

23. A display control method for performing display control on a touch-panel-incorporated display panel, the display control method comprising:
-
acquiring touch operation information from the touch panel; determining whether or not a user is performing a pinch-out operation based on the acquired touch operation information, and estimating, upon determining that the user is performing a pinch-out operation, a region between a plurality of finger touch regions where the user is performing the pinch-out operation in a display region of the display panel, as a target region which is a region of interest of the user; and setting a brightness level of a non-target region to be lower than a set brightness level, the non-target region being a region other than the target region estimated in the display region, wherein the estimation of the target region includes determining that the user is performing the pinch-out operation on condition that a distance between a first touch region and a second touch region is less than a predetermined threshold, and estimating a region between the first touch region and the second touch region as the target region, the first touch region a region having a largest area in the touch regions indicated by the touch operation information, the second touch region being a region having a second largest area in the touch regions.

24. A display control program for causing a computer that performs display control on a touch-panel-incorporated display panel to function as:
-
a touch operation information acquiring section that acquires touch operation information from the touch panel; a user operation information estimation section that determines whether or not a user is performing a pinch-out operation based on the acquired touch operation information, and that estimates, upon determining that the user is performing a pinch-out operation, a region between a plurality of finger touch regions where the user is performing the pinch-out operation in a display region of the display panel, as a target region which is a region of interest of the user; and a display control instruction section that sets a brightness level of a non-target region to be lower than a set brightness level, the non-target region being a region other than the target region estimated in the display region, wherein the user operation information estimation section determines that the user is performing the pinch-out operation on condition that a distance between a first touch region and a second touch region is less than a predetermined threshold, and estimates a region between the first touch region and the second touch region as the target region, the first touch region a region having a largest area in the touch regions indicated by the touch operation information, the second touch region being a region having a second largest area in the touch regions.
