Abstract

A computer-readable recording medium stores a correction processing program causes a computer including a touch panel and a temperature sensor to execute a process. The process includes determining whether a temperature measured by the temperature sensor is lower than a predetermined threshold when a first event completing contact with the touch panel is detected, waiting for a second event starting contact with the touch panel and a third event moving a contact position with the touch panel for a predetermined period of time when it is determined that the measured temperature is lower than the predetermined threshold, and discarding the first event and the second event and notifying an application of the third event, when the second event and the third event are detected during the predetermined waiting period of time.

Claims

1. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having stored therein a correction processing program causing a computer including a touch panel and a temperature sensor to execute a process comprising:

determining whether a temperature measured by the temperature sensor is lower than a predetermined threshold when a first event completing contact with the touch panel is detected;

waiting for a second event starting contact with the touch panel and a third event moving a contact position with the touch panel for a predetermined waiting period of time when it is determined that the measured temperature is lower than the predetermined threshold; and

discarding the first event and the second event and notifying an application of the third event, when the second event and the third event are detected during the predetermined waiting period of time.

2. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium according to claim 1, wherein the notifying includes notifying the application of the first event when both the second event and the third event are not detected during the predetermined waiting period of time.

3. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium according to claim 1, wherein the notifying includes notifying the application of the first event and the second event when only the second event out of the second event and the third event is detected during the predetermined waiting period of time.

4. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium according to claim 1, wherein the process further comprises

notifying the application of the first event when it is determined that the temperature measured by the temperature sensor is equal to or higher than the predetermined threshold.

5. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium according to claim 1, wherein the waiting includes waiting for the second event and the third event for a predetermined period of time according to the temperature measured by the temperature sensor.

6. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium according to claim 5, wherein the waiting includes waiting for the second event and the third event for a longer period of time as the temperature measured by the temperature sensor is lower.

7. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a touch panel that detects an event relating to presence and absence of contact;

a temperature sensor that measures an atmospheric temperature; and

a processor that is connected to the touch panel and the temperature sensor, wherein the processor executes a process comprising;

determining whether the temperature measured by the temperature sensor is lower than a predetermined threshold when a first event completing contact with the touch panel is detected;

waiting for a second event starting contact with the touch panel and a third event moving a contact position with the touch panel for a predetermined waiting period of time when it is determined that the measured temperature is lower than the predetermined threshold; and

discarding the first event and the second event and notifying an application of the third event, when the second event and the third event are detected during the predetermined waiting period of time.

8. A correction processing method executed by an information processing apparatus including a touch panel and a temperature sensor, the correction processing method comprising:

determining, using a processor, whether a temperature measured by the temperature sensor is lower than a predetermined threshold when a first event completing contact with the touch panel is detected;

waiting for a second event starting contact with the touch panel and a third event moving a contact position with the touch panel for a predetermined waiting period of time when it is determined that the measured temperature is lower than the predetermined threshold; and

discarding, using the processor, the first event and the second event and notifying an application of the third event, when the second event and the third event are detected during the predetermined waiting period of time.
