[0039] (applicable to the information processing system of each embodiment)

[0040] figure 1 is a diagram schematically showing an exemplary information processing system applicable to the present disclosure. refer to figure 1 , a plurality of terminal devices 1 are connected to a server 3 via a network 2 (for example, the Internet). Furthermore, the server 3 is also connected to a storage 4 representing a high-capacity storage medium constituted by a hard disk drive or a flash memory.

[0041] Each terminal device 1 is installed with application software 5 (hereinafter referred to as SNS application 5 ) capable of using, for example, SNS (Social Networking Service: Social Networking Service) provided by the server 3 . The SNS provided by the server 3 is, for example, a service that enables transmission and reception of messages including voice messages between the terminal devices 1 via the network 2 . For example, a user of terminal device 1 receives SNS application 5 s...

[0179] A description is given below of the second embodiment. In the second embodiment, when the SNS application 5 receives a message during the display lock imposed by the OS (overall control unit 120), face authentication is performed based on the depth information, and the display lock is released.

[0180] Meanwhile, in the second embodiment, the reference according to the first embodiment can be applied without modification Figure 6 to Figure 10 The configuration of the terminal device 1 is illustrated.

[0181] Figure 14 is an exemplary flowchart for explaining the voice message transmission operation performed in the terminal device 1 according to the second embodiment. exist Figure 14 When the operation shown in the flow chart in is started, it is assumed that the switches 1061a, 1061b, and 1062 are in the OFF state.

[0182] exist Figure 14 Before the operation shown in the flowchart in , in the terminal device 1, it is assumed that the OS (overall control un...

[0258] Next, a third embodiment will be described. In the third embodiment, an example in which a notification related to message reception from another terminal device 1a is received by the SNS application 5 in the form of a push notification in the display lock state imposed by the OS (overall control unit 120) is performed illustrate. Figure 18 is a diagram schematically showing an example of an information processing system applied to the third embodiment and used for a case where push notification is performed. refer to Figure 18 , a plurality of terminal devices 1a are connected to the SNS system 3a via a network 2 such as the Internet. Furthermore, a push notification server 6 providing a known push notification service is connected to the network 2 .

[0259] (Applicable to the configuration of the third embodiment)

[0260] In terminal device 1a it is possible to apply without modification the reference Image 6 with Figure 7 Described hardware configuration....

Abstract

A terminal device (1) according to an embodiment comprises a microphone (12); a communication unit (121) that communicates over a network; a first sensor (14) that acquires depth information; a first face detection unit (112) that detects a face and a distance to the face on the basis of the depth information; and a processor (1000). When a communication program is executed and the communication unit receives a message under the control of the executed communication program, the processor performs the first face detection by using the first face detection unit, and controls on and off of a sound input mode according to a result of the first face detection, and a communication program for causing the processor to perform transmission and reception of a message including a voice message, and having a voice input mode for being able to collect voice by using the microphone and transmit the voice message based on the collected voice.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a terminal device, a control method of the terminal device, and a storage medium. Background technique [0002] Devices capable of wireless communication and easily carried (referred to as mobile devices), such as multifunctional cellular phone terminals (smart phones) and tablet computers, are becoming more common. Typically, such mobile devices are equipped to perform communication of voice messages using telephony functions or using Internet-based voice communication. In the following description, such a function of performing voice message communication is collectively referred to as a voice communication function. In the case of using a voice communication function in a mobile device, it is necessary to tap the touch panel one or more times. So, for example, if one is holding something else in one's hand, one often finds the tapping operation cumbersome. [0003] Therefore, for smartphones, various operation me...
