Operation controlling apparatus
Operation controlling apparatus executing equipment operation controlling, including: an equipment management portion configured to manage control commands corresponding to plural number of control items; a video producing portion configured to produce videos corresponding to the plural number of control items; a video display portion configured to display video produced by the video producing portion laying on a control surface; a distance detector portion configured to detect distance from the video producing portion to the control surface; and a controller portion configured to control the video display portion, so that a size of the video to be displayed by the video display portion is within a size of the control surface, depending on the distance detected by the distance detector portion, and to make equipment of a control target execute the control command, which is managed by the equipment management portion, when execution of the control item is determined.
1. An operation controlling apparatus, for executing operation controlling for equipment, comprising:
a command management portion configured to manage control commands corresponding to a plural number of control items;
an image producing portion configured to produce images corresponding to the plural number of control items;
a display portion configured to display the image produced by the image producing portion on a movable surface;
a distance detector portion configured to detect distance between the image producing portion and the movable surface;
a motion detector portion configured to detect movement of the movable surface; and
a controller portion,
wherein a range in a predetermined distance from the image producing portion is divided into a plurality of areas,
wherein the controller portion is configured to manage correspondence between the plurality of the areas and predetermined numbers of the control items selected from the plurality of control items by an operator, and
wherein the controller portion determines the control item corresponding to the area that includes the distance detected by the distance detector portion when the motion detector portion detects a predetermined movement of the movable surface and executes the control command corresponding to the determined control item by using the command management portion.
2. The operation controlling apparatus, as described in the claim 1 , wherein the correspondences between the plurality of the areas and predetermined numbers of the control items selected from the plurality of control items by the operator are configured to change.
3. The operation controlling apparatus, as described in the claim 1 , wherein the distance detector portion and the motion detector portion includes a camera which detects distance and movement according to the image captured thereby.
4. The operation controlling apparatus, as described in the claim 1 , wherein the display portion is a projector portion that projects the image on the movable surface.
5. The operation controlling apparatus, as described in the claim 1 , wherein the display portion displays the image on a palm of an operator as the movable surface.
