Device capable of presenting startup UI, method of presenting the same, and non-transitory computer readable medium storing presentation program
To provide a startup UI presentation portable device capable of automatically presenting a preset UI highly likely to be used next in the current posture when returned from a sleep mode, the portable device ( 1 ), when returned from the sleep mode (S 1 ), determines whether the posture (S 2 ) of the portable device ( 1 ) sent from a built-in acceleration sensor is within a specified range of a reference posture predetermined for each of a camera, a projector and a direction indicator (S 3 ). When the posture is within the specified range (YES in S 3 ), the portable device ( 1 ) displays a startup UI (icon) previously associated as a startup UI for a function most likely to be used in the reference posture on a display screen (S 5 ). The display of the startup UI is performed automatically subsequent to release of the sleep mode, without requiring an unlock operation or password entry.
1. A device comprising:

when the posture detection unit detects the posture within the specified range for a specified time, the user interface presentation unit presents the startup user interface.
4. The device according to claim 2 , wherein
the user interface presentation unit presents a user interface for releasing the security locked state after detecting a selection of the specified function by a user using the startup user interface.
5. The device according to claim 2 , wherein
when the posture detection unit detects the posture within the specified range for a specified time, the user interface presentation unit presents the startup user interface.
6. The device according to claim 3 , wherein
the user interface presentation unit presents a user interface for releasing a security locked state after detecting a selection of the specified function by a user using the startup user interface.
7. The device according to claim 5 , wherein
the user interface presentation unit presents a user interface for releasing the security locked state after detecting a selection of the specified function by a user using the startup user interface.
8. A startup user interface presentation method comprising:
detecting a return of a device from a power saving mode by a power saving mode return detection unit in the device;
detecting a posture after the power saving mode return detection unit detects the return from the power saving mode by a posture detection unit in the device; and
when the posture detection unit detects a posture within a specified range that is set based on a direction of a component used for a specified function, presenting a user interface for starting the specified function by a user interface presentation unit, wherein
if a direction of an optical axis of a camera lens is in the direction within first predetermined degrees from a horizontal, the user interface presentation unit presents a camera startup user interface for starting a camera function,
if the direction of an optical axis of a projector lens is in the direction within second predetermined degrees from the horizontal, the user interface presentation unit presents a projector startup user interface for starting a projector function, and
if the direction of a display screen is in the direction within third predetermined degrees from the horizontal, the user interface presentation unit presents a direction indicator startup user interface for starting a direction indicator function.
9. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a startup user interface presentation program for executing the method according to claim 8 as a program executable by a computer.
10. The startup user interface presentation method according to claim 8 , wherein
the method is applied to a device where at least one of a locked state for preventing accidental operation and a security locked state for ensuring security can be set by a lock setting unit, and
when the posture detection unit detects the posture within the specified range, presenting, by the user interface presentation unit, the startup user interface regardless of setting set by the lock setting unit.
11. The startup user interface presentation method according to claim 10 , wherein
presenting, by the user interface presentation unit, a user interface for releasing the security locked state after detecting a selection of the specified function by a user using the startup user interface.
12. The startup user interface presentation method according to claim 10 , wherein
when the posture detection unit detects the posture within the specified range for a specified time, presenting the startup user interface by the user interface presentation unit.
13. The startup user interface presentation method according to claim 12 , wherein
presenting, by the user interface presentation unit, a user interface for releasing the security locked state after detecting a selection of the specified function by a user using the startup user interface.
14. The startup user interface presentation method according to claim 8 , wherein
when the posture detection unit detects the posture within the specified range for a specified time, presenting the startup user interface by the user interface presentation unit.
15. The startup user interface presentation method according to claim 14 , wherein
presenting, by the user interface presentation unit, a user interface for releasing a security locked state after detecting a selection of the specified function by a user using the startup user interface.
