An information processing apparatus includes a display unit, a first detection unit that detects a position of an object located in a vertical direction with respect to the display unit and that interacts with the display unit in a contactless manner, wherein detecting the position results in detecting an instruction associated with the at least one input object that is displayed on the display unit and corresponds to the position of the object, a second detection unit configured to detect confirmation of the instruction detected by the first detection unit, and an input unit configured to input data corresponding to the at least one input object in a case where the second detection unit detects confirmation of the instruction associated with the at least one input object in a state where the first detection unit detects the instruction associated with the at least one input object.

When an operation panel accepts a movement instruction to move a designated first icon among a plurality of icons from a first position to a second position on an edit screen, the first icon is moved to the second position, and a size of the first icon is changed with movement based on an inter-icon distance between the first icon after the movement and a second icon adjacent to the first icon after the movement.

Provided is a digital camera with a printer having good operability.

A digital camera with a printer includes an imaging unit, a print unit that prints an image on a medium and discharges the printed medium, a display unit, a first operation member that is rotated from a first position in a first direction around a rotation axis against biasing force, and is rotated in a second direction opposite to the first direction by the biasing force to be returned to the first position in a case in which the first operation member is released, and a processor. The processor performs specific control in accordance with operation of the first operation member.

When an operation panel accepts a movement instruction to move a designated first icon among a plurality of icons from a first position to a second position on an edit screen, the first icon is moved to the second position, and a size of the first icon is changed with movement based on an inter-icon distance between the first icon after the movement and a second icon adjacent to the first icon after the movement.

A content control device includes: a plurality of controls to which a plurality of parameters for controlling properties of a content containing at least one of sound and video are respectively assigned, each of the plurality of controls outputting a first indicated value in accordance with an operation amount of the control; and a processor configured to previously create setting information used to determine respective values of the plurality of parameters in accordance with the second indicated value; determine the values of the plurality of parameters corresponding to the second indicated value respectively in accordance with the second indicated value and the setting information; and revise each of the values of the parameters to be determined in accordance with the first indicated value outputted for the control assigned to the parameter.

A digital camera includes a rotary switch, a switching unit, and a switching unit. The switching unit switches between two states independently of a function other than functions assigned to the respective states of the rotary switch, the two states including a restricted state where rotation of the rotary switch is restricted with a clicking feel and a function of at least one of a shutter speed and an aperture as a function with discrete output values is related to the rotating operation of the rotary switch and a non-restricted state where rotation of the rotary switch is not restricted and a function of at least one of focusing, and a zoom magnification of a lens, and similar function as a function with continuous output values is related to the rotating operation of the rotary switch.

Examples dis closed herein relate to displaying, proximate to a hand engagement interface, a plurality of user interface elements, receiving, via a freeform input interface associated with the hand engagement interface, a freeform input from a user, identifying a command associated with a first element of the plurality of user interface elements associated with the freeform input, and updating the display of the plurality of user interface elements according to the command associated with the first element of the plurality of user elements.

An apparatus, and related methods and machine readable programs are disclosed herein for control of a device, such as a printing apparatus. An implementation of a printing apparatus includes a hand engagement interface including a manual actuator to receive a mechanical user input coupled to visual feedback circuitry. A processor circuit is coupled to the manual actuator and the visual feedback circuitry. The processor circuit executes machine readable instructions to detect mechanical user input to the manual actuator, and responsive to the mechanical user input, render a dynamic display of selectable indicia to a user via the visual feedback circuitry. The user is able to execute a control function of the printing apparatus by scrolling through and selecting an indicium from the selectable indicia.

A cassette connectable to a printer includes a housing configured to house a recording sheet, a connector that is connected to a feed port of the printer for supplying the recording sheet to the printer, and a sensor group including sensor modules that measure a state in a space surrounded by the housing.

Examples dis closed herein relate to displaying, proximate to a hand engagement interface, a plurality of user interface elements, receiving, via a freeform input interface associated with the hand engagement interface, a freeform input from a user, identifying a command associated with a first element of the plurality of user interface elements associated with the freeform input, and updating the display of the plurality of user interface elements according to the command associated with the first element of the plurality of user elements.
