This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18752852 titled 'APPARATUS, METHOD, COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM, AND SMARTPHONE FOR CAUSING SCROLLING OF CONTENT IN RESPONSE TO TOUCH OPERATIONS

The abstract of the patent application describes an information processing system that allows for scrolling of displayed content within and beyond its boundaries in response to user operations.

*Simplified Explanation:
The patent application describes a system that enables scrolling of displayed content based on user interactions.

*Key Features and Innovation:
- Circuitry enables scrolling within the boundaries of a displayed content region in response to user input.
- The system also allows for scrolling beyond the boundaries of the displayed content region in response to a different user operation.

*Potential Applications:
- This technology can be applied in various devices with display screens, such as smartphones, tablets, and computers.
- It can enhance user experience in applications that involve scrolling through content.

*Problems Solved:
- Provides a more intuitive and efficient way for users to navigate through displayed content.
- Offers a seamless scrolling experience within and beyond the boundaries of the content region.

*Benefits:
- Improved user interface for scrolling operations.
- Enhanced user engagement and interaction with displayed content.

*Commercial Applications:
- This technology can be utilized in mobile applications, websites, e-readers, and other digital platforms to enhance user experience and engagement.

*Questions about scrolling technology:
1. How does the system differentiate between the first and second user operations for scrolling?
- The system likely uses different input signals or gestures to distinguish between the two types of scrolling operations.

2. What are the potential limitations of this scrolling technology?
- Potential limitations could include compatibility issues with certain devices or software platforms, as well as user preferences for different scrolling behaviors.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

An information processing system includes circuitry that causes a first scrolling of a displayed content region within its boundaries in response to a first user operation. The circuitry of the information processing system also causes a second scrolling of the displayed content region beyond its boundaries in response to a second user operation.
