Display device, display control method, and display system
A display device includes: an input unit which has image data inputted from an image supply device; a detection unit which detects a position of an indicator and generates indicator information including information about the detected position; a setting unit which sets a mode for processing the indicator information to a first mode or a second mode; a drawing unit which draws a second image generated on the basis of the indicator information and superimposes the second image on a first image generated on the basis of the inputted image data; a selection unit which outputs the indicator information to the drawing unit if the first mode is set and outputs the indicator information to the image supply device if the second mode is set; and a drawing control unit which erases the second image if a switching from the first mode to the second mode is carried out.
1. A display device comprising:
an input unit to which image data is inputted from an image supply device;
a detection unit which detects a position of an indicator and generates indicator information including information about the detected position;
a setting unit which sets a mode for processing of the indicator information to a first mode or a second mode;
a drawing unit which draws a second image generated on the basis of the indicator information and superimposes the second image on a first image generated on the basis of the inputted image data;
a selection unit which
outputs the indicator information to the drawing unit and not to the image supply device if the first mode is set, and
outputs the indicator information to the image supply device if the second mode is set; and
a drawing control unit which erases the second image if a switching from the first mode to the second mode is carried out.
2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein
the drawing control unit executes the erasure of the second image if it is detected that the first image is updated, after the switching is carried out.
3. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein
the drawing control unit executes the erasure of the second image if a predetermined period passes without having the first image updated, after the switching is carried out.
4. The display device according to claim 1 , further comprising a storage unit which stores the second image,
wherein the drawing control unit stores the second image in the storage unit before executing the erasure of the second image.
5. A display control method comprising:
inputting image data from an image supply device;
detecting a position of an indicator and generating indicator information including information about the detected position;
setting a mode for processing of the indicator information to a first mode or a second mode;
causing a drawing unit to draw a second image generated on the basis of the indicator information and superimpose the second image on a first image generated on the basis of the inputted image data;
outputting the indicator information to the drawing unit and not to the image supply device if the first mode is set;
outputting the indicator information to the image supply device if the second mode is set; and
erasing the second image if a switching from the first mode to the second mode is carried out.
6. The display control method according to claim 5 , wherein
the erasing of the second image is executed if it is detected that the first image is updated, after the switching is carried out.
7. The display control method according to claim 5 , wherein
the erasing of the second image is executed if a predetermined period passes without having the first image updated, after the switching is carried out.
8. The display control method according to claim 5 , further comprising storing the second image in a storage unit before executing the erasure of the second image.
9. A display system comprising:
an image supply unit;
an input unit to which image data is inputted from the image supply unit;
a detection unit which detects a position of an indicator and generates indicator information including information about the detected position;
a setting unit which sets a mode for processing of the indicator information to a first mode or a second mode;
a drawing unit which draws a second image generated on the basis of the indicator information and superimposes the second image on a first image generated on the basis of the inputted image data;
a selection unit which
outputs the indicator information to the drawing unit and not to the image supply unit if the first mode is set, and
outputs the indicator information to the image supply unit if the second mode is set; and
a drawing control unit which erases the second image if a switching from the first mode to the second mode is carried out.
10. The display system according to claim 9 , wherein
the drawing control unit executes the erasure of the second image if it is detected that the first image is updated, after the switching is carried out.
11. The display system according to claim 9 , wherein
the drawing control unit executes the erasure of the second image if a predetermined period passes without having the first image updated, after the switching is carried out.
12. The display system according to claim 9 , further comprising a storage unit which stores the second image,
wherein the drawing control unit stores the second image in the storage unit before executing the erasure of the second image.
13. A display device comprising:
an input unit to which image data is inputted from an image supply device;
a detection unit which detects a position of an indicator and generates indicator information including information about the detected position;
a setting unit which sets a mode for processing of the indicator information to a first mode or a second mode;
a drawing unit which draws an image generated on the basis of the indicator information;
a selection unit which
outputs the indicator information to the drawing unit and not to the image supply device if the first mode is, set and
outputs the indicator information to the image supply device if the second mode is set; and
a drawing control unit which erases the image if a switching from the first mode to the second mode is carried out.
14. The display device according to claim 13 , wherein
the drawing control unit executes, after the switching is carried out, the erasure of the image if it is detected that there has been an update to an additional image generated on the basis of the inputted image data.
15. The display device according to claim 13 , wherein
the drawing control unit executes, after the switching is carried out, the erasure of the image if a predetermined period passes without having an update to an additional image generated on the basis of the inputted image data.
16. The display device according to claim 13 , further comprising a storage unit which stores the image,
wherein the drawing control unit stores the image in the storage unit before executing the erasure of the image.
