  Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the description of the drawings, the same elements are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description is omitted.

(1) Configuration of Smartphone First, the configuration of the smartphone according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram for explaining an outline of a functional configuration of the smartphone 1 according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a physical configuration diagram for explaining an outline of a physical configuration of the smartphone 1. The smartphone 1 is a mobile phone terminal that includes a touch panel display capable of displaying a plurality of icons (items). By selecting and executing an icon in the smartphone 1, a predetermined function (for example, a function included in application software) corresponding to the icon is activated. The smartphone 1 can change the display position of the icon according to a predetermined position where the user's finger touches the touch panel once.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the smartphone 1 includes a CPU 101 (Central Processing Unit), a RAM 102 (Random Access Memory), a ROM 103 (Read Only Memory), an operation unit 104, a wireless communication unit 105, as main physical components. This is a portable computer terminal configured by hardware such as a display 106 and an antenna 107. Each function which the smart phone 1 has is exhibited by these components operating.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the smartphone 1 includes, as main functional components, an input reception unit 11 (detection unit), an input detection unit 12 (detection unit), a display control unit 13 (display unit), and a display unit. 14 (display means), a database 15 (storage means), and a setting unit 16 (setting means).

  The input receiving unit 11 is a sensing function part that detects a contact position (pressed position) touched by a user's finger operating the smartphone 1 on the touch panel. When the input reception unit 11 detects the touch of the user's finger, the input reception unit 11 acquires contact information regarding the contact position and the pressed state. The contact position is, for example, the position indicated by the ordinate and the abscissa on the touch panel, and the pressed state is the time during which the contact is continued.

  The input detection unit 12 is an analysis processing part that analyzes the contact information acquired by the input reception unit 11. The input detection unit 12 analyzes the contact information, so that the contact position described above is a position corresponding to a position where an item such as an icon exists (icon display area), or an item such as an icon does not exist. It is detected and detected whether it is a position described later corresponding to the position. When the contact position is a position where an icon exists, a predetermined function (for example, a function included in application software) corresponding to the icon is activated.

  Here, the positions where the icons do not exist are, for example, four positions of positions a, c, e, and g near the apex, two positions of line segments b and f near the long side of the substantially rectangular touch panel described later, And two segments d and h in the vicinity of the short side, which is an area where application software corresponding to surrounding icons is not started even when the touch of the user's finger is detected.

  The display control unit 13 changes the display positions of the plurality of icons based on a method for changing the display positions of the plurality of icons, which is determined in advance according to the contact positions recognized by the input detection unit 12. It is a control part which controls the display part 14 and displays it on a touch panel. The method of changing the display positions of a plurality of icons is to change the display positions of the plurality of icons to positions on a fan-shaped arc having a predetermined radius centered on the contact position. Note that this sector shape may be circular if all of the plurality of icons can be displayed.

  In addition, the display control part 13 performs the rearrangement process of the icon according to a corresponding change system, when the above-mentioned contact position recognized by the input detection part 12 is a position where an icon does not exist. The display control unit 13 requests and acquires replacement information related to a change method determined in advance according to the contact position described above from the database 15. The display control unit 13 changes the display positions of the plurality of icons based on the replacement information acquired from the database 15 and controls the display unit 14 to display on the touch panel.

  It should be noted that the predetermined radius centered on the contact position described above may be determined based on the number of icons whose display position is changed. For example, the predetermined radius may be set longer as the number of icons whose display position is changed is larger.

  Furthermore, the predetermined radius centered on the contact position described above may be determined based on the contact position detected by the input detection unit 12. For example, the closer the detected contact position is to the lower end of the display 106 that is being displayed to the user of the smartphone 1 (that is, the position closest to the body of the user of the smartphone 1), the closer the predetermined radius is. It may be determined to be long.

  The display unit 14 is a touch panel function part that changes and displays the display positions of a plurality of icons under the control of the display control unit 13. The display unit 14 can acquire replacement information passed from the display control unit 13, and can rearrange and display a plurality of icons according to the replacement information.

  The database 15 is a database function part that stores replacement information that associates the contact position detected by the input detection unit 12, the specific information for specifying the icon whose display position is changed, and the predetermined radius described above. This specifying information includes priority order information for specifying the priority order of icons whose display positions are changed. This priority order is determined based on the selection frequency based on the history of touch selection by the user of the smartphone 1 for each icon displayed on the touch panel, for example. In this case, the higher the frequency of touch selection by the user for each of the icons, the higher the priority. Details of the replacement information storage method will be described later.

  The setting unit 16 is an application function part that receives input of change settings for replacement information stored in the database 15. The setting unit 16 accepts input by the user for change setting of replacement information, changes the content of the replacement information according to the change setting, and overwrites and saves it.

(2) An example of a contact position recognized as a position where an icon does not exist and an example of display contents by the display control unit Subsequently, an example of a contact position recognized as a position where no icon exists by the input detection unit 12, and display control An example of the contents displayed by the unit 13 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 is a touch panel screen diagram for explaining an example of a contact position recognized as a position where no icon exists and an example of display contents by the display control unit 13.

  Here, the contact position recognized by the input detection unit 12 as a position where the icon does not exist (position pressed to change the display position of the icon) is the position a, c near the vertex on the substantially rectangular touch panel. , E, and g, two locations of line segments b and f near the long side and parallel to the long side, and two locations of line segments d and h near the short side and parallel to the short side, A total of eight edge portions. If the contact position is present on two line segments b and f near the long side and two line segments d and h near the short side, it is detected that the corresponding line segment is pressed.

  In addition, icons P1 to P4 are displayed on the touch panel so that the icons P1 to P4 are sequentially arranged from the left side near the upper end of the touch panel, and the icons Q1 to Q4 are sequentially arranged from the left side near the lower end of the touch panel. Is displayed.

(3) Example of Replacement Information Storage Method Using Database Next, an example of replacement information storage method using the database 15 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 4 is a table configuration diagram for explaining an example of a replacement information storage method by the database 15.

  For example, in the database 15, the position “a” of the detection location that can be detected by the input detection unit 12, the specific information “all apps” and “50-note order” that specify the icon whose display position is changed, and The display radius “20 mm”, which is the radius of, is stored in association as one piece of replacement information. The “display radius” may be changed based on the number of icons whose display position is changed. For example, when the number of icons whose display position is actually changed is smaller than the icon of the “target application”, the smaller the number of icons whose display position is actually changed, the smaller the “display radius”. However, it may be changed to be shorter.

  The “display radius” may be changed based on the “display location” detected by the input detection unit 12. For example, the farther the detected “display location” is from the lower end of the display 106 that is being displayed to the user of the smartphone 1 (that is, the position closest to the body of the user of the smartphone 1), "May be changed to be shorter.

  Here, the specific information includes, for example, “all apps” that are target application information for specifying the application (application software) corresponding to the icon whose display position is changed, and the priority of the icon whose display position is changed. “Order of 50 notes” which is priority order information for specifying the order is included.

  When the target application information is “all apps”, all the apps are specified. When the target app information is not “all apps”, the apps are specified by a name that can uniquely identify the app. In addition to “50-sound order”, the priority information includes “usage history (ordered from the shortest elapsed time since the last activation)” and “(installed date and time are arranged in chronological order). ) Order of installation ”,“ Number of usages (ordered in descending order of activation) ”, and“ Type (indicates the category of the application such as games and tools) ”, and all icons are displayed depending on the contact position described above If not, icons are displayed from the highest priority specified here.

(4) Example of Icon Rearrangement Next, an example of icon rearrangement will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6. FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of rearrangement when contact with the above-described line segment f is detected, and FIG. 6 shows rearrangement when contact with the above-described position e is detected. It is arrangement | positioning explanatory drawing which shows an example.

  As shown in FIG. 5, it is assumed that the input detection unit 12 detects that the position of the detection position of the user's finger is one point of the line segment “f”. At this time, the display control unit 13 changes the display positions of all the icons displayed on the touch panel to positions on a fan-shaped arc having a predetermined radius (15 mm) centered on the detected position. And

  Here, the total number of all icons displayed on the touch panel is eight, and the number of icons that can be arranged at positions on the arc is five. When the position of the detection position of the user's finger is one point in the line segment “f”, as shown in FIG. 4, the priority order information is “number of times of use”. The display control unit 13 selects up to five icons (in the example, usually a predetermined number) in descending order of the number of times the icon corresponding to the icon is used (that is, the number of activations).

  Then, the display positions of the five icons R1 to R5 selected in descending order of icon usage are changed by the display control unit 13 to complete the rearrangement.

  In addition, as illustrated in FIG. 6, it is assumed that the input detection unit 12 detects that the position of the detection position of the user's finger is the position “e”. At this time, the display control unit 13 changes the display positions of all the icons displayed on the touch panel to positions on a fan-shaped arc having a predetermined radius (15 mm) centered on the detected position. And

  Here, the total number of all icons displayed on the touch panel is eight, and the number of icons that can be arranged at positions on the arc is three. When the position of the detection position of the user's finger is the position “e”, the priority order information is “installation order” as shown in FIG. For example, the display control unit 13 selects a predetermined number).

  Then, the display positions of the three icons S1 to S3 selected in descending order of icon usage are changed by the display control unit 13 to complete the rearrangement.

(5) Example of User Interface Provided by Setting Unit Next, an example of a UI (user interface) provided by the setting unit 16 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 7 is a screen configuration diagram for explaining an example of a user interface provided by the setting unit 16. As illustrated in FIG. 7, when the setting unit 16 is started as application software for performing icon replacement setting change, the setting unit 16 can accept input by the user of change setting of replacement information (icon replacement rule). Display a simple setting screen on the touch panel.

  In this setting screen, the change setting for any of the eight positions a, c, e, g and line segments b, d, f, h described above that triggers the start of the icon replacement process is performed. Let the user choose to do it. For example, when “set replacement of“ a ”” is selected, a screen requesting the user to specify the target application, the priority order, and the display radius is displayed next.

(6) Flow of Icon Rearrangement Processing in Smartphone 1 Subsequently, the flow of icon rearrangement processing (terminal display method) in the smartphone 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 8 and 9. FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing the flow of the replacement information setting process by the setting unit 16, and FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing the flow from the detection of the contact position by the input detection unit 12 to the icon replacement display by the display unit 14. It is.

  First, the flow of setting replacement information by the setting unit 16 will be described with reference to FIG. First, when an icon for starting an application for performing replacement setting of replacement information is selected by the user, the setting unit 16 displays the above setting screen on the touch panel to trigger the icon replacement process. Of the eight locations of positions a, c, e, g and line segments b, d, f, h, which detection location (display location of the intersection of the two radii in the above-mentioned sector) should be changed or set (Step S11). Here, the input reception unit 11 detects a contact position touched by the user's finger, and the input detection unit 12 detects and recognizes whether or not this contact position is to select the above-described location.

  And the setting part 16 displays the question screen which asks the object application which specifies the application which the display position change corresponding to the selected detection location shows, and displays an application name (for example, application name) The user is made to select according to the designation of x application and y application (step S12). Here, the input reception unit 11 detects a contact position touched by the user's finger, and the input detection unit 12 detects and recognizes whether or not this contact position designates the above-described target application.

  Then, the setting unit 16 displays on the touch panel a question screen asking the priority of the icon whose display position is to be changed, corresponding to the selected target application, and displays “50 alphabetical order”, “usage history”, “ The user selects “installation order”, “number of times of use”, and “type” (step S13). Here, the input reception unit 11 detects a contact position touched by the user's finger, and the input detection unit 12 detects and recognizes whether or not this contact position is for selecting the above-described priority order.

  Then, the setting unit 16 displays the above-described question screen asking for the sector radius corresponding to the selected priority order on the touch panel to allow the user to specify the sector radius (step S14). Here, the input reception unit 11 detects a contact position touched by the user's finger, and the input detection unit 12 detects and recognizes whether or not this contact position designates the radius described above.

  Finally, the setting unit 16 performs a data storage process in which the replacement information indicating the selected detection location, target application, priority order, and display radius is overwritten and saved in the database 15 (step S15). Then, a series of processing ends.

  Next, a flow from detection of a contact position by the input detection unit 12 to icon replacement display by the display unit 14 will be described with reference to FIG. First, when the input reception unit 11 detects the touch of the user's finger, the contact information regarding the contact position and the pressed state on the touch panel is acquired (step S21, detection step).

  And the input detection part 12 analyzes the contact information acquired by the input reception part 11, and the pressing location which is the above-mentioned contact position is a position corresponding to the presence position of an icon, or the position where an icon does not exist. It is detected and recognized whether it is a corresponding position (step S22, detection step).

  When the pressed position is a position corresponding to a position where no icon exists, the display control unit 13 displays replacement information regarding a change method that is assigned in advance according to the pressed position recognized by the input detection unit 12. The request is acquired from the database 15 and read (step S23, display step).

  Finally, the display unit 14 acquires replacement information passed from the display control unit 13, and in accordance with the replacement information, replaces a plurality of icons and displays the rearranged information (step S24, display step). Then, a series of processing ends.

(7) Module Configuration of Terminal Display Program Subsequently, the module configuration of the terminal display program will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 10 is a module configuration diagram for explaining a module configuration of a terminal display program P that causes a computer to function as the smartphone 1.

  As shown in FIG. 10, the terminal display program P includes a main module M0, an input reception module M1, an input detection module M2, a display control module M3, a display module M4, a database module M5, and a setting module M6. .

  The main module M0 is a part that exercises control over the function of executing various types of information processing. The functions realized by executing the input reception module M1, the input detection module M2, the display control module M3, the display module M4, the database module M5, and the setting module M6 are the input reception unit 11 and the input detection unit 12 described above, respectively. The functions of the display control unit 13, the display unit 14, the database 15, and the setting unit 16 are the same.

  The terminal display program P is provided in a form that is fixedly recorded on a recording medium or a semiconductor memory. Further, the terminal display program P may be provided via a communication network.

(8) Actions and effects of this embodiment Next, actions and effects of the smartphone 1 according to this embodiment will be described. According to the smartphone 1, when the touch position of the finger on the touch panel is detected, the display position of the plurality of icons is changed to a position on a fan-shaped arc with a predetermined radius centered on the detected touch position. Is displayed.

  For this reason, when there is a use case in which the user tries to operate the smartphone 1 with one hand, the range that the finger can reach on the touch panel is limited. By changing the display position of the plurality of icons to a position on a fan-shaped arc centering on the position, the icon can be freely operated with one hand. As a result, it is possible to improve the convenience of the user who tries to operate the mobile phone terminal with one hand.

  Further, according to the smartphone 1, the “display radius” can be determined based on the number of icons whose display position is changed. For example, the “display radius” can be changed so that the “display radius” becomes longer as the number of icons whose display positions are changed is larger. Thereby, for example, even when the number of icons whose display positions are changed increases, the “display radius” becomes longer, so that the icons can be displayed without overlapping.

  Further, according to the smartphone 1, the predetermined radius can be determined based on the contact position detected by the input detection unit 12. For example, for example, if the “display location” is far from the lower end of the display 106 in a state of being displayed to the user of the smartphone 1 (that is, the position closest to the body of the user of the smartphone 1) by the display control unit 13, for example. As the “display radius” becomes shorter, the “display radius” can be changed. Thereby, for example, since the “display radius” is shorter at a position far from the user's thumb of the smartphone 1, it becomes possible to facilitate touch selection of an icon even at a far position.

  Further, according to the smartphone 1, the replacement information that associates the contact position that can be detected on the touch panel, the specific information that specifies the icon for which the display position is changed, and the above-described fan-shaped predetermined radius is stored and stored. The icon can be displayed based on the replacement information.

  In addition, according to the smartphone 1, it is possible to change the replacement information by receiving an input of the change setting of the stored replacement information.

  Further, according to the smartphone 1, it is possible to specify the priority order of icons for which the display position is changed. As a result, even when the user tries to operate this mobile terminal with one hand, it may not reach depending on the position of the icon, but by changing the display position of the high priority icon as described above, The possibility that the icon can be touched increases. As a result, it is possible to improve the convenience of the user who tries to operate the mobile phone terminal with one hand.

  Further, according to the smartphone 1, the priority order can be determined based on, for example, the selection frequency based on the history of touch selection by the user of the smartphone 1 for each icon displayed on the touch panel. As a result, the higher the frequency of touch selection by the user for each of the icons, the higher the priority is, and it is possible to change the arrangement of icons that are likely to be selected.

(9) Modification In the above embodiment, it has been described that the change method of the icon display position is determined according to the contact position where the user's finger operating the smartphone 1 touches the touch panel once. The manner in which the finger touches the touch panel is not particularly limited. For example, a method for changing the icon display position according to the touch position where the user's finger is touched twice on the touch panel within a predetermined short time. May be determined.

  In the above embodiment, the priority order information includes “order of 50 notes”, “usage history”, “installation order”, “number of times of use”, and “type (indicating application category such as games and tools)”. Although described as being used, the order of recommendation degree, which is the degree of recommendation based on the date and position when the user's finger touches the touch panel, may be used.

  In the above-described embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the number of icons that can be arranged at a position on a fan-shaped arc having a predetermined radius (15 mm) centering on the position “e” of the detection position of the user's finger is three. Although described as individual, this predetermined radius may be changed based on the number of icons for which the display position is changed. For example, the “display radius” may be changed by the display control unit 13 such that the “display radius” becomes longer as the number of icons whose display positions are changed is larger.

  Specifically, if the number of icons whose display positions are changed is six (twice as many as three), the predetermined radius is changed from 1 to 2l, that is, 30 mm (twice that of 15 mm). (Length) may be changed. In this case, as shown in FIG. 11, the icons T1 to T6 are arranged after being moved and displayed on the touch panel at positions on a fan-shaped arc having a predetermined radius of 30 mm. Thereby, for example, even when the number of icons whose display positions are changed increases, the “display radius” becomes longer, so that the icons can be displayed without overlapping.

  In the above-described embodiment shown in FIG. 5, five icons R1 to R5 are located at positions on a fan-shaped arc having a predetermined radius (15 mm) centered on the position “f” of the detection position of the user's finger. Although described as being arranged, the predetermined radius may be changed based on the “display location” detected by the input detection unit 12. For example, as the “display location” is farther from the lower end of the display 106 in a state of being displayed to the user of the smartphone 1 by the display control unit 13 (that is, the position closest to the user's body of the smartphone 1), The “display radius” may be changed so that the “display radius” becomes shorter.

  Specifically, if the distance between the “display location” and the lower end of the display 106 in a state of being displayed to the user of the smartphone 1 (that is, the position closest to the body of the user of the smartphone 1) is tripled. The predetermined radius may be changed from 3l to l, i.e. 5mm (a third of the length in the case of 15mm). In this case, as shown in FIG. 12, the icons U1 to U5 are arranged after moving at positions on a fan-shaped arc having a predetermined radius of 5 mm and displayed on the touch panel. Thereby, for example, since the “display radius” is shorter at a position far from the user's thumb of the smartphone 1, it becomes possible to facilitate touch selection of an icon even at a far position.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a mobile terminal, a terminal display method, and a terminal display program that can enhance the convenience of a user who tries to operate the mobile phone terminal with one hand.
