Display control device and display control method
Display of display objects is changed as appropriate in accordance of situation change. A display control device includes: a display control unit configured to set an arrangement region on a display region of a display and control display of at least one or more display objects arranged in the arrangement region, the arrangement region having a virtual three-or-more-dimensional coordination system; and a situation determination unit configured to determine at least one situation of environment and a user, wherein the display control unit modifies the arrangement region in accordance with change of the situation.
1. A display control device comprising:
a memory;
an input/output device; and
a processor communicatively coupled to the memory and the input/output device, the processor is configured to
set an arrangement region on a virtual three-or-more-dimensional coordination system and control display of a display by displaying a perspectively converted image of one or more display objects arranged in the arrangement region, on a display region of the display having a two-dimensional coordination system, the arrangement region having a virtual three-or-more-dimensional coordination system;
determine at least one situation of environment and a user; and
change at least one of a size of the arrangement region and a shape of the arrangement region on the virtual three-or-more-dimensional coordination system in accordance with change of the situation.
2. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor folds the arrangement region in a direction orthogonal to a display screen of the display in accordance with the change of the situation.
3. The display control device according to claim 2 , wherein
the processor folds at least one of both ends of the arrangement region in a direction orthogonal to a display screen of the display in accordance with change of the situation.
4. The display control device according to claim 2 , wherein
the processor displays the display objects in an obliquely-viewed shape, the one or more display objects being arranged at a folded portion of the arrangement region.
5. The display control device according to claim 2 , wherein
the processor displays a side surface of at least one of the one or more display objects arranged at a folded portion of the arrangement region.
6. The display control device according to claim 5 , wherein
the processor displays information on the side surface of at least one of the one or more display objects arranged at the folded portion of the arrangement region, the information being different from information displayed on a front surface of corresponding display object.
7. The display control device according to claim 2 , wherein
the processor displays the one or more display objects in a shape viewed from the front, the one or more display objects being arranged at a non-folded portion of the arrangement region.
8. The display control device according to claim 2 , wherein
the processor displays, in an upsizing manner, the one or more display objects arranged at a non-folded portion of the arrangement region.
9. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to
set relative priority among the display objects provided to the same arrangement region, and
in a case where the processor upsizes a size of the one or more display objects in accordance with the change of the situation, and as a result of upsizing of the display objects, an interval between the display objects is less than a predetermined threshold value, the processor modifies the arrangement region to change display of the display objects in accordance with the priority.
10. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor modifies the arrangement region on a plane parallel to a display screen of the display in accordance with change of the situation.
11. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein
the arrangement region is set as one of visible or invisible in the arrangement region.
12. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein
each of the one or more display images is set as one of visible or invisible in the arrangement region.
13. A display control method performed by a display control device, the display control display control method comprising:
setting an arrangement region on a virtual three-or-more-dimensional coordination system and controlling display of a display by displaying a perspectively converted image of one or more display objects arranged in the arrangement region, on a display region of the display having a two-dimensional coordination system, the arrangement region having a virtual three-or-more-dimensional coordination system; and
determining at least one situation of environment and a user, wherein
at least one of a size of the arrangement region and a shape of the arrangement region is changed on the virtual three-or-more-dimensional coordination system in accordance with change of the situation.
14. The display control method according to claim 13 , wherein
the arrangement region is set as one of visible or invisible in the arrangement region.
15. The display control method according to claim 13 , wherein
each of the one or more display images is set as one of visible or invisible in the arrangement region.
