Information processing apparatus, threshold value setting method, and threshold value setting program
First Claim
1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a recognition section which recognizes the shape of an object being in contact with an operation screen of an operating section on the basis of detected physical characteristics of the object;
a pressure detecting section which detects the pressure of the object on the operation screen;
a threshold value setting section which sets a threshold value of the pressure, which is a value for determining a pressure operation on the operation screen, on the basis of the shape of the object recognized by the recognition section; and
a determination section which determines whether or not a pressure operation has been performed on the operation screen on the basis of the pressure detected by the pressure detecting section and the threshold value set by the threshold value setting section,wherein the recognition section recognizes the shape of the object on the basis of determinations, based on the detected physical characteristics of the object, of a thickness of the object, of whether the object is a fingertip, and of whether the object is a human thumb.

14. A threshold value setting method comprising the steps of:
-
recognizing, on the basis of detected physical characteristics of an object, the shape of the object being in contact with an operation screen of an operating section by means of a recognition section; setting a threshold value of the pressure of the object on the operation screen, which is a value for determining a pressure operation on the operation screen, on the basis of the shape of the object recognized by the recognition section by means of a threshold value setting section; and determining whether or not a pressure operation has been performed on the operation screen on the basis of the pressure of the object on the operation screen, which has been detected by the pressure detecting section, and the threshold value, which has been set by the threshold value setting section, by means of a determination section, wherein the shape of the object is recognized on the basis of determinations, based on the detected physical characteristics of the object, of a thickness of the object, of whether the object is a fingertip, and of whether the object is a human thumb.

15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having embodied thereon a threshold value setting program, which when executed by a computer causes the computer to perform a method, the method comprising:
-
recognizing, on the basis of detected physical characteristics of an object, the shape of the object being in contact with an operation screen; setting a threshold value of the pressure of the object on the operation screen, which is a value for determining a pressure operation on the operation screen, on the basis of the recognized shape of the object; and determining whether or not a pressure operation has been performed on the operation screen on the basis of the pressure of the object on the detected operation screen and the set threshold value, wherein the shape of the object is recognized on the basis of determinations, based on the detected physical characteristics of the object, of a thickness of the object, of whether the object is a fingertip, and of whether the object is a human thumb.
