Information processing apparatus
View Patent ↗An information processing apparatus includes a determination unit that determines whether a second key provided on a body is pressed when a first key provided on the body is pressed and a control unit that disables the first key and inhibits an operation in response to an operation with the first key if the determination unit determines that the second key provided on the body is pressed.
1. A slide information processing apparatus comprising:
a first body;
a second body;
a guide member, the first body and the second body being slidable on one another via the guide member;
a determination unit configured to determine, when a first key of a plurality of operation keys provided on the second body is pressed, whether a second key of the plurality of operation keys provided on the second body which is other than the first key is pressed concurrently with the pressing of the first key, in order to recognize that the first key is unintentionally pressed; and
a control unit configured to disable the first key and inhibit an operation of turning on or off the information processing apparatus by the unintentional pressing of the first key if it is determined by the determination unit that the second key provided on the second body is concurrently pressed.
2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein the determination unit is configured to determine whether or not the second key provided on the second body is pressed after a predetermined time set in advance elapsed since the first key provided on the second body is pressed.
3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein the determination unit is configured to determine whether or not the second key provided on the second body is pressed depending on the state of the information processing apparatus if the first key provided on the second body is pressed.
4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 ,
wherein the determination unit is configured to determine whether or not the second key provided on the second body is pressed if the information processing apparatus is in an open state in which the second body slides to be locked in a case where the first key provided on the second body is pressed.
5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 ,
wherein the determination unit is configured not to perform determination and the control unit is configured to perform an operation in response to an operation with the first key if the information processing apparatus is in a closed state in which the first body is overlaid with the second body in a case where the first key provided on the second body is pressed.
6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first key is configured to at least includes a power key.
7. A slide information processing apparatus comprising:
a first body;
a second body;
a guide member, the first body and the second body being slidable on one another via the guide member;
a determination unit configured to determine, when a first key of a plurality of operation keys provided on the second body is pressed, whether or not the information processing apparatus is in a first state when the first key provided on the second body is pressed concurrently with a second key of the plurality of operation keys provided on the second body, wherein the second key is different from the first key, wherein the determination unit determines whether or not the information processing apparatus is in the first state in order to recognize that the first key is unintentionally pressed; and
a control unit configured to disable the first key and inhibit an operation turning on or off the information processing apparatus by the unintentional pressing of the first key if it is determined by the determination unit that the information processing apparatus is in the first state in a case where the first key is concurrently pressed with the second key.
8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 7 ,
wherein the control unit is configured to perform an operation in response to an operation with the first key if the first key is pressed for a shorter time.
