Abstract

Detection section ( 110 ) detects a touch on information processing apparatus ( 100 ). Control section ( 120 ) performs control based on the touch detected by detection section ( 110 ) and ignores the result detected by detection section ( 110 ) according to a period of time during which the touch position detected by detection section ( 110 ) has not moved.

Claims (114)

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a detection section that detects a touch; and

a control section that performs control based on the touch detected by said detection section,

wherein when the detection section detects the touch at a detected touch position, a timer measures a period of time during which the detected touch does not move from the detected touch position,

wherein, when the measured period of time is more than a calculated time period, the control section executes a result detected by said detection section,

wherein, when the measured period of time is less than the calculated time period, the control section ignores the result detected by said detection section,

wherein, the calculated time period is updated based on the measured period of time during which the detected touch does not move from the detected touch position where:

“t” denotes the measured period of time during which the detected touch does not move from the detected touch position,

“a” denotes a coefficient,

“T” denotes a constant,

“x” denotes the calculated time period and,

when 0≦t≦T, x is calculated by Expression 1 below

x

=

a

{

1

-

cos

(

)

}

,

(

and

when T<t, x=a×T.

2. The information processing apparatus according claim 1 , comprising

a display section, wherein

said detection section detects a touch on a display surface of said display section.

3. An information processing method of performing:

a process of detecting a touch;

a process of performing control based on the detected touch at a detected touch position;

a process of measuring a period of time during which the detected touch does not move from the detected touch position; and

a process of ignoring a detected result at the detected touch position when the measured period of time is less than the calculated time period,

wherein, the calculated time period is updated based on the measured period of time during which the detected touch does not move from the detected touch position where:

“t” denotes the measured period of time during which the detected touch does not move from the detected touch position,

“a” denotes a coefficient,

“T” denotes a constant,

“x” denotes the calculated time period and,

when 0≦t≦T, x is calculated by Expression 1 below

x

=

}

,

(

when T<t, x=a×T.

4. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute:

a procedure for detecting a touch;

a procedure for performing control based on the detected touch;

a procedure for measuring a period of time during which the detected touch does not move from the detected touch position; and

a procedure for ignoring a detected result at the detected touch position when the measured period of time is less than the calculated time period,

wherein, the calculated time period is updated based on the measured period of time during which the detected touch does not move from the detected touch position where:

“t” denotes the measured period of time during which the detected touch does not move from the detected touch position,

“a” denotes a coefficient,

“T” denotes a constant,

“x” denotes the calculated time period and,

when 0≦t≦T, x is calculated by Expression 1 below

x

and

when T<t, x=a×T.
