OPERATION TERMINAL CONTROL DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18491038 titled 'OPERATION TERMINAL CONTROL DEVICE
The abstract describes a patent application for an angle detection unit that detects the relative angle of a display unit with respect to a predetermined direction when the angle is not within a certain range, and limits user input and display operations accordingly.
- The angle detection unit detects the relative angle of a display unit with respect to a predetermined direction.
- The control unit limits user input and display operations based on the detected angle.
- The limitation of operations is dependent on whether the angle is within a specified range.
- The technology aims to enhance user experience and prevent errors in operation.
- This innovation could be applied in devices where the orientation of the display unit is critical for user interaction.
Potential Applications: - Mobile devices - Gaming consoles - Virtual reality headsets
Problems Solved: - Preventing errors in user input due to incorrect display orientation - Enhancing user experience by adjusting operations based on display angle
Benefits: - Improved user interaction - Reduced errors in operation - Enhanced usability of devices
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhancing User Experience Through Display Angle Detection Technology" This technology could be utilized in various consumer electronic devices to improve user interaction and prevent errors in operation, leading to increased customer satisfaction and loyalty.
Questions about Angle Detection Technology: 1. How does the angle detection unit determine the relative angle of the display unit? The angle detection unit uses sensors or gyroscopes to detect the orientation of the display unit in relation to a predetermined direction.
2. What are the potential drawbacks of limiting user input and display operations based on the detected angle? Limiting user input and display operations based on the detected angle may restrict certain functionalities or features of the device, potentially leading to user frustration.
Original Abstract Submitted
An angle detection unit for detecting a first angle, which is a relative angle of a display unit capable of displaying an image provided on an operation terminal held by a user, with respect to a first predetermined direction; and when the first angle is not within a first range. and a control unit that limits either or both of an input operation by the user to the input unit provided in the operation terminal and a display operation of the display unit compared to when the first angle is within the first range.
