Benefits of technology

The patent describes a display apparatus that can change the way it shows keys based on whether the control device it is connected to has letter keys. This allows for more efficient use of the display space and makes it easier for users to input letters. The display apparatus can also display an on-screen keypad based on the control device's letter keys, or not show it at all. This feature helps users who are used to a different type of keyboard. The method for displaying the user interface includes determining whether the control device has letter keys and selectively displaying the on-screen keypad accordingly. The display apparatus can also process images and display them along with the user interface. Overall, this technology improves the user experience and makes it easier for users to input letters on the display.

Problems solved by technology

However, related art display apparatuses always display an on-screen keypad regardless of the input means, thus increasing complexity of the screen and causing confusion to users.
