ABSTRACT:
The terminal operation apparatus of the present invention is used for an electronic conference and the like, in which an operated terminal having a shared screen is remotely operated through a network, the amount of information flowing through the network is adjusted, and continuity of an operation between the operated terminal and the operating terminal is kept, whereby operability is enhanced. Timers72and73or a point information detection counter74are used to transmit detailed point information with a decreased thinning ratio to the operated terminal for a predetermined period of time after the point information is inputted. A thinning ratio is set in accordance with a pointer movement speed and priorities (the order of connection, a CPU use ratio, whether or not an operation authority is obtained, etc.) among operators. Furthermore, an operation area of a operated terminal is provided, a pointer is displayed at a relative position on a shared screen, and a pointer is prevented from being unintentionally positioned off an area by setting a particular operation and the like for retreating from the operation area of the operated terminal. An inlet area and an outlet area are provided on a display screen of the operating terminal and a shared screen, respectively, whereby a pointer operation target is automatically switched to ensure continuity of a pointer operation.
