1, a fingerprint registration step S1, a setting step S2, a fingerprint recognition step S3, a fingerprint comparison step S4, an input step S5, an execution step S6 ) To control the smart device.

First, in the fingerprint registration step (S1), a fingerprint is recognized and registered in the smart device. Since the patterns of fingerprints are different for each finger, registration of all the fingerprints corresponding to the finger 1 to 10 can be registered.

At this time, the registered fingerprint can be changed according to the needs of the user.

After the fingerprint registration step (S1), a setting step (S2) is performed to set the registered fingerprint to be associated with a specific application.

In addition, after the setting step S2, a fingerprint is recognized on the smartphone in order to execute a specific application (S3). If the user's fingerprint is recognized, the registered fingerprint is compared with the recognized fingerprint (S4).

At this time, if the fingerprint is an unregistered fingerprint, the smartphone does not operate and returns to the fingerprint recognition step S3 again.

If the registered fingerprint matches the recognized fingerprint in the fingerprint comparison step S4, the process proceeds to an input step S5 for inputting a predetermined operation.

In the input step S5 of receiving the predetermined operation, at least one of a time taken until the finger is released, a number of times the touch screen is touched, and a motion recognition that slides the moving direction of the finger.

In addition, all the steps are completed through an input step (S5) and an execution step (S6) in which a recognized fingerprint and a specific application associated with a predetermined operation are executed.

For example, when a registered fingerprint is recognized, it is unlocked.

When the second fingerprint is recognized, the wireless Internet is connected.

The map is executed when the fingerprint 3 is recognized.

In this manner, the user can easily and quickly execute the application desired by the user for fingerprints up to ten times.

As shown in FIG. 2, the smart device can be controlled by registering the fingerprints of the fingers 1 through 10, but the number of the hotkeys can be limited due to the limit of 10 fingers. Therefore, a predetermined operation can be further added in the fingerprint setting step and expanded to many hot keys.

In the predetermined operation, three kinds of operations such as a time taken until the finger is released, a number of times the touch screen is touched, and a motion recognition that slides on the moving direction of the finger are added.

Accordingly, three predetermined actions can be added to the fingerprint fingerprint based on the ten fingerprint fingerprints, and the fingerprint fingerprint can be enlarged to 30 different shortcut keys. - See Table 1 below -

finger number 1 No.2 number 3 No. 4 5 times No. 6 No. 7 8 times No. 9 10 times Touch time
(1 second, 2 seconds ..)  Application 1  Application 2 Application 3 Application 4 Application 5 Application 6 Application 7 Apps 8 Application 9 Application 10 Touch count
(1, 2 times ..) Application 11 Application 12 Application 13 Application 14 Application 15 Application 16 Application 17 Application 18 Application 19 Application 20 Touch direction
(Right and left...) Application 21 Application 22 Apps 23 Application 24 Application 25 Application 26 Application 27 Application 28 Apps 29 Application 30

As described above, each fingerprint information and a predetermined operation are stored in the form of a MATRIX. The touch time can be set to 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds ..... N seconds, and can be set to infinity according to the user's needs.

The number of touches can be set to infinity as described above, and the touch direction can be specified in left, right, top, bottom, and diagonal directions.

3, 4, and 5 are diagrams showing different predetermined operations, and assume that they are all coincident with registered fingerprints through the fingerprint recognition step.

As shown in FIG. 3, after recognizing the fingerprint, a predetermined operation of 'a time (A1) in which the time until the finger is released is several seconds' is added. After recognizing the fingerprint, the application is executed by different applications with a time interval of 1 second, 2 seconds, and 3 seconds after the finger is not released.

That is, the recognition time is 1 second, 2 seconds, and 3 seconds before the finger is released after the fingerprint is recognized.

For example, after the fingerprint has been recognized, the application is set up by holding the finger for one second without releasing the finger and releasing the finger.

Also, after the fingerprint is recognized as described above, the user immediately stops the finger for two seconds without releasing his finger and executes the B application. After 3 seconds, the C application is executed.

For example, after recognizing the first finger and stopping for one second, the finger is released immediately, and the smartphone unlocking and camera shooting application are executed sequentially.

In addition, if a time of 1 second, 2 seconds, or 3 seconds is executed depending on the user's sense, the user may not detect the time in seconds, and an undesired application may be executed.

Therefore, in order to prevent the application from being executed by the user, it is possible to inform the user of the time interval of 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, etc., or the screen of 1 month, 2 seconds and 3 seconds .

In addition, the time interval can be easily detected such as one vibration after one second, two vibrations after two seconds, and three vibrations after three seconds.

Accordingly, there is an effect that the user can recognize the accurate time in seconds and execute a desired application.

In addition, the sound, vibration, and notification phrase indicating the time interval as described above can be applied to all the fingers not limited to a specific finger.

As shown in FIG. 4, after recognizing the fingerprint, it adds a predetermined operation of 'the number of touch times (A2)'.

After recognizing the fingerprint, touch the screen of the smart device once, touch twice, touch three times, and make different recognition so that different applications can be executed according to the number of touches.

For example, when the screen of the smart device is touched once immediately after the fingerprint is recognized, the D application is executed. When the touch is performed twice, the E application is executed. When the touch is performed three times, the F application is executed.

As shown in FIG. 5, after recognizing the fingerprint, a predetermined operation of 'the direction of movement of the finger (A3)' is added.

If the finger moves to the left, right, upper, or lower direction after the fingerprint is recognized, different recognition is performed so that another application can be executed.

For example, the G application is executed when the finger is slid left on the smart device screen after the fingerprint is recognized. In addition, the H application is executed when the finger is slid to the right, the I application is executed when sliding upward, and the J application is executed when sliding down.

<Examples>

- Configuration step

1st finger - unlock smartphone

2nd finger - wireless internet connection

Finger # 3 - Running the map

# 4 finger - camera shot

Fifth finger - notepad run

Run # 6 fingerprints - photo album

7th finger - make a call

Run 8 Finger - Calculator

9th finger - Play music

10 finger-application multiple selection

Although the above embodiment can be used alone, it is possible to extend the shortcut key setting by adding a predetermined operation.

- a predetermined operation

One or more of the following three operations are executed.

How many seconds does it take before you lift your finger?

If you lift your finger after 1 second - Call home

If you lift your finger after 2 seconds - Call your mother

If you lift your finger after 3 seconds - Call your father

How many touches?

1 touch - execute navigation

2 touch-capture function

Touch 3 times - Internet launch

Which direction is your finger?

Enable left-handed smart devices

Run the Recording function

Up - Switching to silence

Lower - Switch to ringtone

The fingerprint recognition step is performed through the above assumption, and then one of the three operations is performed.

If finger is released after 1 second after recognizing the fingerprint of finger 1

When the smartphone is unlocked, a home call is executed.

If you touch the screen 3 times after recognizing the fingerprint of finger 2

- Internet connection is opened at the same time as the wireless Internet is connected.

If you recognize fingerprints of finger 3 and slide your finger to the right

- The recording function is executed as soon as the map is executed.

In addition to the above combination, various combinations are possible according to the needs of the user.

In addition, after recognizing the fingerprint, it is possible to use two or three combinations of predetermined operations.

For example, if the fingerprint is recognized after 1 second and the finger is released at the same time while sliding the finger at the same time, the recording function is executed so that the call is connected to the home while the smartphone is unlocked.

A plurality of required applications can be simultaneously executed by combining prescribed operations in the same manner as described above.

In addition, one application associated with one fingerprint pattern may be registered, but a plurality of applications may be registered with one fingerprint pattern.

In the case of registering a plurality of applications in one fingerprint, a plurality of applications, which are mainly used by users, are registered.

For example, a fingerprint of a finger 10 can be registered to open an option for selecting three applications.

Assuming you have three applications set up as Notepad, Calculator, and Paint, you can choose one of the three to run the application.

The three applications can be customized according to the user's needs,

It can be very convenient when you specify similar types.

In addition, texts and images to be protected by privacy can be read only through fingerprint recognition, or additional functions such as enlargement and reduction can be made available only to the user, thereby further enhancing the privacy protection function.

In this way, since it operates with recognized fingerprint information, it is very excellent in terms of privacy protection.

In addition, since the fingerprint information is recognized differently by various users, different settings can be made for each user.

In addition, by setting a simple shortcut key for users who have difficulty in using the smart device, anyone can conveniently use the smart device.

Meanwhile, the embodiment as described above can be applied not only to the smartphone but also to peripheral smart devices through wired, wireless communication, and Bluetooth.

As shown in FIG. 6, the present invention can be applied to a variety of smart devices interlocked with smart phones, mainly smart phones.

When the fingerprint is recognized by the smartphone, the result is transmitted to the surrounding smart device through the wireless communication and is transmitted to the smart device such as the notebook 10, the tablet PC 20, the Google glass 30, the smart watch 40, The peripheral smart device receives the transmitted signal and operates the linked application only when it matches the fingerprint of the registered user in advance.

<Examples>

First, connect the Bluetooth or wired or wireless communication so that the smart phone and the peripheral smart device can be interlocked.

1. It recognizes the finger 2 finger and executes the Bluetooth or wired and wireless Internet connection.

2. After recognizing the 1st address on the smartphone, slide your finger to the left.

(Here, fingerprint # 1 is unlocked, and the left-sliding motion is assumed to be an interlocked other smart device.)

3. Unlock your smartphone, and at the same time unlock your tablet PC with your smartphone.

4. The fingerprint is recognized on the smartphone 2 and the movie file is executed on the connected tablet PC.

(Here, fingerprint # 2 is assumed to be a movie file.)

4-1. The fingerprint is recognized on the smartphone 3 times and the music file is executed on the connected tablet PC.

4-2. The smartphone recognizes the fingerprint 4 times and receives the contact to the connected tablet PC.

As described above, when the music file is executed through the fingerprint recognition on the smartphone, the music file is executed on the tablet PC and the movie file stored in the smartphone can be viewed on the notebook or TV.

In addition, the contact information stored in the smart phone or the contents of the notepad can be transmitted to another smart device.

In addition, a smart device such as the notebook 10, the tablet PC 20, the Google Glass 30, the smart watch 40, and the MP3 50 is locked by the smartphone fingerprint recognition so that the user can not use the device May be released.

Also, based on the fingerprint recognition result, the user can be changed to change the environment setting or screen configuration differently for each user, and it can be applied to the surrounding smart device by smart phone fingerprint recognition.

Since the peripheral smart device can be controlled by using only the smartphone using the above-described fingerprint recognition, there is no need to install a fingerprint reader or a fingerprint input device for each device, thereby reducing the price.

In addition, the fingerprint recognition time is less than 1 second, and it is possible to execute it with touch once, so that it can be executed easily and quickly.

In addition, since fingerprint recognition is used, security is very high and it is also applicable to a wearable device having a limited installation space.

On the other hand, each fingerprint acts like a number.

E.g,

Number 1 fingerprint - Number 1

Number 2 fingerprint - Number 2

Number 3 fingerprint - Number 3

Number 4 fingerprint - Number 4

Number 5 fingerprint - Number 5

Number 6 fingerprint - number 6

Number 7 fingerprint - number 7

Number 8 fingerprint - Number 8

Number 9 fingerprint - Number 9

10 fingerprints - assuming number 10

Calling the phone number 123-4567

1 fingerprint + 2 fingerprint +3 fingerprint + 4 fingerprint + 5 fingerprint + 6 fingerprint + 7 fingerprint.

These features are very useful for people with hearing impairments who do not have a clear view because they do not have to look at the numbers on the keypad.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is clearly understood that the same is by way of illustration and example only and is not to be taken as a limitation of the scope of the present invention.
