Abstract

An information processing device includes a memory for storing instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions. The instructions are executed to detect contact with or approach of an object; set an operation mode of the information processing device to a first operation mode or a second operation mode; and control according to the set operation mode. The first operation mode is set when the information processing device is operated using a non-gloved hand, and the second operation mode is set when the information processing device is operated using a glove hand. Control of at least one of displayed information size, ring volume, and vibration strength is different based on whether the first operation mode or the second operation mode is set.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An information processing device comprising:
 a memory for storing instructions; and   a processor configured to execute the instructions to:
 detect contact with or approach of an object; 
 set an operation mode of the information processing device to a first operation mode or a second operation mode; and 
 control according to the set operation mode, 
 wherein the first operation mode is set when the information processing device is operated using a non-gloved hand, and the second operation mode is set when the information processing device is operated using a glove hand; and 
 wherein control of at least one of displayed information size, ring volume, and vibration strength is different based on whether the first operation mode or the second operation mode is set. 
   
     
     
         2 . The information processing device according to  claim 1 , wherein the operation mode is set to the first operation mode or the second operation mode based upon a result of detecting the contact with the object or of detecting the approach of the object.
