Information processing apparatus, input control method of information processing apparatus, and program

Abstract

The invention discloses an information processing apparatus, an input control method of the information processing apparatus, and a program. The information processing apparatus includes an input position acquisition unit, a depressing force acquisition unit and an input control unit. An input position acquisition unit obtains an input position detected with respect to an input operation. A depressing force acquisition unit obtains a depressing force detected with respect to the input operation. An input control unit fixes the input position as a position of an input candidate in response to a timing at which an increase amount of the depressing force has exceeded a first threshold value, at a stage prior to an input candidate determination operation of determining the input candidate as input information.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to an information processing device, an input control method of the information processing device, and a program. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to input control based on a press operation. Background technique [0002] In recent years, various electronic devices such as cellular phones, personal digital assistants, personal computers, and car navigation systems employing touch panels or touchpads for input operations have been put into practical use. In these devices, it is common practice to detect a touched position using a tap operation with a stylus or an operating finger to perform selection and input determination operations of menu buttons, soft keyboard keys, and the like. However, when selection and input determination are performed by a flick operation, the size of the button is small relative to the size of an operating finger or a stylus, so that erroneous pressing often occurs.
