Abstract

There is provided an information processing device including a processor configured to realize an address term definition function of defining an address term for at least a partial region of an image to be displayed on a display, a display control function of displaying the image on the display and temporarily displaying the address term on the display in association with the region, a voice input acquisition function of acquiring a voice input for the image, and a command issuing function of issuing a command relevant to the region when the address term is included in the voice input.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An information processing device comprising:
 a processor configured to realize
 an address term definition function of defining an address term for at least a partial region of an image to be displayed on a display, 
 a display control function of displaying the image on the display and temporarily displaying the address term on the display in association with the region, 
 a voice input acquisition function of acquiring a voice input for the image, and 
 a command issuing function of issuing a command relevant to the region when the address term is included in the voice input. 
   
     
     
         2 . The information processing device according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the region includes a superordinate layer region and a subordinate layer region, and   wherein, when the superordinate layer region is displayed on the display, the display control function displays an address term of the subordinate layer region at least a part of which is included in the displayed superordinate layer region.   
     
     
         3 . The information processing device according to  claim 2 , wherein the command issuing function issues a command to expand and display the subordinate layer region. 
     
     
         4 . The information processing device according to  claim 3 ,
 wherein the region includes a more subordinate layer region of the subordinate layer region, and   wherein, when the subordinate layer region is expanded and displayed, the display control function displays an address term of the more subordinate layer region of the subordinate layer region at least a part of which is included in the subordinate layer region.   
     
     
         5 . The information processing device according to  claim 2 , wherein the command issuing function issues a command to allow the subordinate layer region to enter a selection state. 
     
     
         6 . The information processing device according to  claim 5 ,
 wherein the region includes a more subordinate layer region of the subordinate layer region, and   wherein, when the subordinate layer region enters the selection state, the display control function displays an address term of the more subordinate layer region of the subordinate layer region at least a part of which is included in the subordinate layer region.   
     
     
         7 . The information processing device according to  claim 6 , wherein the command issuing function issues a command to expand and display the more subordinate layer region of the subordinate layer region. 
     
     
         8 . The information processing device according to  claim 2 ,
 wherein the superordinate layer region corresponds to an entire region of the image, and   wherein the subordinate layer region corresponds to a display region of each of a plurality of sub-images included in the image.   
     
     
         9 . The information processing device according to  claim 8 , wherein the command issuing function issues a command to expand and display, in the entire region of the image, the sub-image corresponding to an address term included in the voice input among the plurality of sub-images. 
     
     
         10 . The information processing device according to  claim 2 ,
 wherein the superordinate layer region corresponds to an application image displayed in an entire region of the image, and   wherein the subordinate layer region corresponds to a region of a GUI component included in the application image.   
     
     
         11 . The information processing device according to  claim 2 ,
 wherein the superordinate layer region corresponds to an entire region of the image, and   wherein the subordinate layer region corresponds to each of a plurality of subject regions recognized in the image.   
     
     
         12 . The information processing device according to  claim 11 , wherein the command issuing function issues a command to expand and display the image using, as a criterion, the subject region corresponding to an address term included in the voice input among the plurality of subject regions. 
     
     
         13 . The information processing device according to  claim 2 , wherein the subordinate layer region is entirely included in the superordinate layer region. 
     
     
         14 . The information processing device according to  claim 1 , wherein the address term definition function defines the address term based on set information regarding the region. 
     
     
         15 . The information processing device according to  claim 1 , wherein the address term definition function defines the address term based on a location of the region in the image. 
     
     
         16 . The information processing device according to  claim 1 , wherein the address term definition function defines the address term based on a chronological change in a display form of the region. 
     
     
         17 . The information processing device according to  claim 1 , wherein the display control function displays, on the display, an address term included in the voice input. 
     
     
         18 . The information processing device according to  claim 1 , wherein the display control function displays the issued command on the display. 
     
     
         19 . An information processing method comprising, by a processor:
 defining an address term for at least a partial region of an image to be displayed on a display;   displaying the image on the display and temporarily displaying the address term on the display in association with the region;   acquiring a voice input for the image; and   issuing a command relevant to the region when the address term is included in the voice input.   
     
     
         20 . A program causing a computer to realize:
 an address term definition function of defining an address term for at least a partial region of an image to be displayed on a display;   a display control function of displaying the image on the display and temporarily displaying the address term on the display in association with the region;   a voice input acquisition function of acquiring a voice input for the image; and   a command issuing function of issuing a command relevant to the region when the address term is included in the voice input.
