The present invention relates to a display system and a display method that display image data on a plurality of display devices.
In a case where a user (for example, a teacher) teaches a viewer (for example, a student) by using image data of a plurality of pages as a teaching material, the user displays the plurality of pages individually on one display device. For example, the user displays image data of a first page on the display device to explain the image data of the first page. Then, the user displays image data of a second page on the display device to explain the image data of the second page. The viewer is thereby able to listen to the explanation on the image data of the first page while viewing the image data of the first page, and listen to the explanation on the image data of the second page while viewing the image data of the second page.
However, pages of image data to be displayed on the display device are switched one by one, so that it is difficult for the viewer to view the image data of the plurality of pages at once. That is, when displaying the image data of the second page on the display device, the user switches image data to be displayed on the display device from the image data of the first page to the image data of the second page, so that it is difficult for the viewer to view the image data of the first page and the second page at once.
Moreover, in a case where one display device is used as a touch panel display, a user displays image data of a first page on the display device to explain the image data of the first page, and inputs, to the display device, information (input information) indicating an explanatory note accompanying the image data of the first page. A viewer is thereby able to listen to the explanation on the image data of the first page while viewing the image data of the first page and the explanatory note. As above, it is desired that a viewer is able to view image data of several pages at once.
However, since pages of image data to be displayed on the display device are switched one by one, the input information input by the user is not reflected on image data to be displayed on the display device in some cases. That is, in a case where the explanatory note accompanying the image data of the first page has no relation with image data of a second page, the explanatory note accompanying the image data of the first page is not reflected on the image data of the second page. In this case, when switching image data to be displayed on the display device from the image data of the first page to the image data of the second page, the user is required to delete the explanatory note accompanying the image data of the first page from the display device. As above, it is desired that information (input information) input by a user is reflected on target image data.
Techniques of displaying image data on a plurality of display devices are disclosed in PTL 1 and 2.
In a technique described in PTL 1, when image data is displayed on a first display device, image data same as the image data that is displayed on the first display device is displayed on a second display device by using a screen capturer.
In a technique described in PTL 2, when a user inputs information (comment) to image data displayed on a first display device, image data (image data in which the comment is reflected) same as the image data displayed on the first display device is displayed on a second display device by using a screen capturer.

(Yes at step S7), the operation (display processing) of the display system according to the fifth embodiment is finished. On the other hand, in a case where display of all pages is not finished or in a case where display of the image data is not to be finished (No at step S7), step S2 described above is performed.
As described above, in the display system according to the fifth embodiment, the plurality of display devices 10 and the control devices 30 are constituted by the plurality of groups G1 to G3 as illustrated in.
In this manner, in the display system according to the forth embodiment, for example, even in a situation where there are three classrooms and a viewer (student) who is not able to enter a classroom (in this case, the master group G1) in which a user (teacher) stays enters one of the other classrooms (slave group G2 or G3), since each of the image data of the number of display devices 10 (in this case, the image data of the first page 110-1 of “ABCD” on which the input information 111 (explanatory note) is reflected and the image data of the second page 110-2 of “EFG”) is displayed on each of the plurality of display devices 10 in the slave groups G2 and G3 (in this case, the slave display devices 12-1 and 12-2 and the slave display devices 13-1 and 13-2) in the other classrooms (slave groups G2 and G3), the viewer who stays in the other classrooms (slave group G2 and G3) is able to view the image data of the first page 110-1 of “ABCD” on which the input information 111 (explanatory note) is reflected and the image data of the second page 110-2 of “EFG”, that is, image data of several pages at once.
Moreover, in the display system according to the fifth embodiment, each of the image data of the number of display devices 10 (in this case, the image data of the first page 110-1 of “ABCD” on which the input information 111 (explanatory note) is reflected, the image data of the second page 110-2 of “EFG”, the image data of the third page 110-3 of “HIJK”, and the image data of the fourth page 110-4 of “LMNOP”) is displayed on each of the plurality of display. devices 10 in the master group G1 (the slave display device 11-1, the master display device 11-2, the slave display device 11-3, and the slave display device 11-4) in the classroom (master group G1) in which the user (teacher) stays, and each of the image data of the number of display devices 10 (in this case, the image data of the first page 110-1 of “ABCD” on which the input information 111 (explanatory note) is reflected. and the image data of the second page 110-2 of “EFG”) is displayed on each of the plurality of display devices 10 in each of the slave groups G2 and G3 (in this case, the slave display devices 12-1 and 12-2 and the slave display. devices 13-1 and 13-2) in the other classrooms (slave groups G2 and G3), so that it is possible to cope with even a case where a constituent of the display devices in the classroom (master group G1) in which the user (teacher) stays and constituents of the display devices in the other classrooms (slave groups G2 and G3) are different.
In the display system according to the sixth embodiment, each of the plurality of groups G1 to G3 is provided in a different region. In the present embodiment, among the plurality of groups G1 to G3, the master group G1 is provided in a region A1, and the slave groups G2 and G3 are provided in regions A2 and A3, respectively. The control device 30 of the master group G1 is connected to the control devices 30 of the slave groups G2 and G3 via a network NE.
In this manner, in the display system according to the sixth embodiment, for example, in a case where school buildings (regions) of a classroom (master group G1) in which a user (teacher) stays and other classrooms (slave groups G2 and G3) are different, since it is difficult to connect the control device 30 of the master group G1 and the control devices 30 of the slave groups G2 and G3 with the use of a cable, it is preferable to connect the control device 30 of the master group G1 and the control devices 30 of the slave groups G2 and G3 with the use of the network NE.
As above, the invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and may be modified in various manners within the scope of the claims. That is, an embodiment achieved by combining technical means appropriately modified within the scope of the claims is also encompassed is the technical scope of the invention.
