Input display device
An input display device includes a display configured to display an image, a capacitive touch panel configured to be attached onto the display and include at least one three-dimensional UI portion on a surface of the touch panel, and a detection unit configured to measure a capacitance of the touch panel and detect an operation on the touch panel based on the measured capacitance. The detection unit detects a rotation of the three-dimensional UI portion from a change in coordinates of a finger touching the three-dimensional UI portion, determines that a rotation detected when a finger distance decreases is valid, and determines that the rotation detected when the finger distance does not decrease is invalid.
1. An input display device comprising:
a display configured to display an image;
a capacitive touch panel configured to be attached onto the display and include at least one three-dimensional operation portion on a surface of the touch panel; and
a detection unit configured to measure a capacitance of the touch panel and detect an operation on the touch panel based on the measured capacitance,
wherein the detection unit detects rotation of the operation portion from a change in a coordinate position of a finger touching the operation portion, determines that a rotation detected when a distance between the finger and the touch panel decreases is valid, and determines that a rotation detected when the distance does not decrease is invalid.
2. The input display device according to claim 1 , wherein the detection unit determines that a rotation detected when the measured capacitance increases is valid, and determines that a rotation detected when the measured capacitance does not increase is invalid.
3. The input display device according to claim 2 , wherein the detection unit compares the capacitance before detection of a rotation of the operation portion with a capacitance after the detection of the rotation, determines that the detected rotation is valid when a difference in the capacitance is equal to or greater than a threshold value, and determines that the detected rotation is invalid when the difference is not equal to or greater than the threshold value.
4. The input display device according to claim 1 , further comprising: a display unit configured to display a gauge representing a detected rotation amount, around the operation portion of the display.
5. The input display device according to claim 4 , wherein the display unit displays an icon representing an input operation at a corresponding position of the operation portion of the display.
6. The input display device according to claim 1 , wherein the operation portion has a shape of a cylindrical knob or handle.
