A display control system includes an input unit to receive position information of a knob, a memory to store a display control program in relation to a position of the knob, and a processor to execute the display control program to change a display of content in a display in consideration of the position information of the knob in relation to movement of the knob.

A method for controlling an electronic device by an input device, and an input device is disclosed. The method includes: controlling, by the input device, an electronic device by using a touch apparatus when the input device detects that the input device is in contact with the touch apparatus of the electronic device; and when the input device detects that the input device is in contact with an object surface beyond the touch apparatus of the electronic device, detecting, by the input device, a motion of the input device on the object surface, and sending information about the motion to the electronic device, to control the electronic device.

The air-gapped device controller system provides a disconnected (air-gapped) remote endpoint controller that does not allow any programmatic manipulation of the remote system and works exclusively on an analog basis. To accomplish this, the system includes an apparatus that is connected to the end-user via internes or any other network and interacts with an air-gapped system (remote system) physically. It does so by translating the user's physical input to a signal on the wire and then recreating the user's physical input on the interface attached to the air-gapped system (e.g., pressing buttons, operating a touch pad or a mouse, user's video feed etc. Further, the system provides a method to allow the user to control an air gap control system without physically operating the hardware of the air gap control system. Additionally, the system may operate and control operating systems, computers, cameras, microphones, display systems, etc.
