In order to make the above-mentioned features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the following is a better description and a detailed description will be given below. [Embodiment] Some joyful functions, however, the number of hotkeys on the handheld device is two: 1: 旎 provides a user-friendly interface that simultaneously displays multiple user interfaces, which is bound to increase the number of operating handheld devices. The creation is based on the above ideas. In the case of the use of the surface of the method, the method of making money, etc., in order to make this (4) more than the Japanese, the special case of the town is used as an example that can be implemented according to the law. A flowchart of the user interface shown in one embodiment of the present invention: Referring to FIG. 1, this embodiment illustrates how the handheld device according to the input tool is not used when the use of the hand-held device is used. M333606 96-11-29 The detailed steps of the user interface corresponding to the 'automatic conversion. The handheld device includes a mobile phone, a personal digital assistant or a smart phone, etc., and the scope is not limited herein. When the tool operates the handheld device, the handheld device first receives an input signal in a user interface as shown in step 110. Then, in step 12, the touch sensing device is touched or approached according to the input tool. The sensed area, pressure, temperature, or image is used to determine the type of tool of the input tool. Finally, as shown in step 130, the handheld device converts and displays the corresponding user interface according to the type of the tool. The handheld device displays the corresponding user interface according to different tool types. For convenience of explanation, in the following embodiments For example, distinguishing between two different input tools, such as a stylus and a user's finger, and further transforming the creation by separately converting the corresponding user interface according to two different types of tools. In the scope of the present invention, any number of tool types may be included. In the following embodiments, the user interface corresponding to the stylus is a general user interface including all functions of the handheld device, and the user corresponding to the finger介= is a common function interface for displaying some functions of the handheld device. The functions that are not displayed on the common function interface can be preset by the user according to their habits or needs. There are various methods for judging the types of input tools. The method of judging requires different hardware designs, as shown in the block diagram of the handheld device shown in Fig. 2 to 2D, and the following is explained in order. ‘ M333606 96-11-29 The handheld device of Figure 2A includes a display of $ 21〇, a touch sensing device 22〇, and a processor 23〇. The display 21 is used to display a user interface, and the touch sensing device 220 is, for example, a touch panel (t〇uch pand) for detecting an input tool, operating, and generating an input signal according to the operation of the wheel guard. The tiger processor 230 is connected to the display 210 and the touch sensing device 22, and determines the tool type of the input tool and converts the corresponding user interface according to the type of the tool. The touch sensing device 220 of FIG. 2A includes a resistive sensor (Stive Sensor device) 24". The resistive sensor can sense the input: with the contact position and pressure during operation, so the input signal provided by the touch sensing device 22 includes information such as the position and pressure of the input tool contact. It is worth noting that the resistive sensor can only provide one input signal for the contact point at the same time, and the contact point is distributed within the contact area of the input tool and the resistive sensor, as shown in Figures 3A and 3B. Figure 3A! shows the stylus of the stylus, occupies t 1 to t-4, because the contact area of the stylus is small, so the contact points are concentrated. Figure 3B shows the contact point w to 手指 of the finger, Because of the contact of the fingers, the product is larger, so the contact points are more dispersed. Since the resistive sensor can only provide one input signal of the contact point during the same day, the processor 23 must continuously record the input signal for a certain period of time. Information, calculate the range of variation' and then judge the type of input tool according to the size of the range of variation. Take the four contact points in Figure 3Α and 3Β as an example, suppose the input signal generated by the contact point ^ is (Xi, Yi, Pi), where i can be I 2, 3, 4. The X coordinate along the contact position of W, γ ΐ is the γ coordinate of the contact position of 丨_丨, and pi is the contact pressure of Μ. The processor 23〇 can calculate the position and pressure separately. Level 11 M333606 96-11-29 The mean values are as follows: X Coordinate average: Xa = (xl + X2 + X3 + x4) / 4 Y Coordinate average: Ya = (Y1 + Υ2 + Υ3 + 4 . Pressure average: Pa = (Pl+P2 + P3+p4)/4 Then the range of position and pressure can be calculated separately as follows: • + | γ X coordinate variation range: do not =|Xa - X1...Xa _ 丨 丨 + X3| + |Xa — X4| Y coordinate variation range: Yd = |Ya —Y1 a +1 | |Ya —Y3 卜|Ya —Y4| Pressure variation range: Pd=|pa —P1| + |Pa — p2| + |Pa-P3卜|Pa — P4| As for how to judge the dog breeder according to the range of position and pressure variation, the sylinder is shown from 40 to 40. The flow of the following is described in the following. The type of input tool executed by the recognized processor 230 is: ... 'The flow of Fig. 4A is the type of the variable tool according to the contact position. First, the input tool is connected at the beginning of the step. Second, at step, the coordinate of the contact point is recorded at a predetermined sampling time. Then, in step 430, the number of samples is checked to be the preset number of processors 230, and the flow proceeds to step 44, otherwise the flow proceeds to step 420 to continue recording. Next, in step 440, the variation range of the contact position xd, 12 M333606 96-11-29 is calculated.

Yd,在步驟450檢查是否Xd< Vx而且Yd < Vy,其中Vx 和Vy是處理器230的預設範圍。若兩座標的變動範圍皆 小於對應的預設範圍,處理器230在步驟460判定輸入工 具種類為觸控筆,將使用者介面轉換為對應的共同使用者 介面。否則處理器230在步驟470判定輸入工具種類為手 指,將使用者介面轉換為對應的常用功能介面。Yd, in step 450, it is checked whether Xd < Vx and Yd < Vy, where Vx and Vy are preset ranges of the processor 230. If the range of the two coordinates is less than the corresponding preset range, the processor 230 determines in step 460 that the input tool type is a stylus and converts the user interface into a corresponding common user interface. Otherwise, the processor 230 determines in step 470 that the input tool type is a finger and converts the user interface into a corresponding common function interface.

圖4B為處理器230所執行的另一種輸入工具種類辨 識方法的流程圖,圖4B的流程是依據接觸壓力的變動範 圍判斷工具種類。處理器230在步驟421每隔一段取樣時 間記錄輸入工具的接觸壓力,在步驟441計算接觸壓力的 變動範圍Pd,然後在步驟451檢查是否pd< Vp,其中v 為處理器230的預設範圍。若pd < %,處理器23〇在步 驟460判定輸人工具麵為觸控筆,將使用者介面轉換為 對應的/、同使用者介面。否則處理器謂在步驟柳判定Fig. 4B is a flow chart showing another method of identifying the type of input tool performed by the processor 230. The flow of Fig. 4B is to determine the type of the tool based on the range of variation of the contact pressure. The processor 230 records the contact pressure of the input tool every other sampling time in step 421, calculates the variation range Pd of the contact pressure in step 441, and then checks in step 451 whether or not pd < Vp, where v is the preset range of the processor 230.

Otherwise, the processor 230 determines in step 470 that the input tool type is a finger and converts the user interface into a corresponding common function interface. The remaining steps of Fig. 4c are the same as those of Fig. 4A and will not be described again. Next is another input tool type identification method under the hardware design, please refer to FIG. 2B and FIG. 2B is a block diagram of a handheld device according to another embodiment of the present invention. The main difference between FIG. 2B and FIG. 2A is that the touch sensing device 220 of FIG. 2A is replaced with a touch including a capacitiye sensor device 250. The sensing device 22 has a plurality of arrayed sensing pads (sens〇r pM) in construction. The induction 塾 only produces a capacitive effect on a sufficiently large conductor to sense the contact or proximity of the conductor. Fingers and conductors can induce induction. If the stylus is guided, made, and large enough, it can also sense the sensor pad. Capacitive sensing is generally detected by scanning, so that many sensing pads can be sensed at the same time or in a short period of time. The processor 230 of Fig. 2B can calculate the size of the sensing area based on the number of sensing pads that are sensed, and distinguish that the input tool is a finger or a stylus. FIG. 5 is a flow chart of the input tool type identification method executed by the processor 230 of FIG. 2B. First, at step 510, the contact or proximity of the input tool is detected every other sampling time, and then at step 52, it is checked whether the sensing pad is inductive. If not, go back to step 51 and continue to detect. If yes, proceeding to step 530, when the input tool operates the touch sensing device 221 for a predetermined period of time, the number of sensing pads sensed is generated in the capacitive sensor 25A. It is then checked in step 540 whether the number of sensing pads is less than a preset value of the processor 230. If the number of sensing pads is less than the preset value, the M333606 96-11-29 processor 230 determines in step 550 that the input tool type is a stylus and converts the user interface to a corresponding common user interface. Otherwise, the processor 230 determines in step 560 that the input tool type is a finger and converts the user interface into a corresponding common function interface. The above preset values can be set according to the density of the unit area of the sensor pad. FIG. 2C is a block diagram of a handheld device according to another embodiment of the present invention. The main difference between FIG. 2C and FIG. 2A is that the touch sensing device 22 of FIG. 2A is configured. The touch sensing device 222 includes a temperature sensor 260. In this embodiment, the processor 230 determines the type of the tool according to the tool temperature when the input tool contacts or approaches the touch sensing device 222. Referring to FIG. 2C and FIG. 2C, when the user operates on the touch sensing device 222 by using the input tool, the processing person 230 will receive the corresponding input signal (step 11〇). At this time, the processor 230 detects the input tool through the temperature sensor 26 and compares the tool temperature with a preset temperature (for example, room temperature and line. If the tool temperature is lower than the preset temperature, the display shows that the 21Gi display corresponds to the common The user interface or common i can be as described in the embodiment (step 13A).

Next, the processor 230 follows the instructions of the M333606 96-11-29 270. Controlling the sensing device 223. When the user operates the touch sensing device 223 by using the wheeling tool, in step 11A, the processor 23 receives an input signal through the touch sensing device 223. Then, in the step, the processing is processed. The control image capture device 270 captures the image including the input tool and determines the type of tool according to the feature or dimension of the input tool in the image. For example, the processor 230 can transmit image recognition technology. Obtain the characteristics of the edge contour of the input tool in the image, and judge the type of the tool. Or calculate the size of the input tool in the image and compare it with the size of the reference object to determine the tool type. The processor 230 determines that the input tool is a stylus, and displays the common user interface through the display 210 in step 13. If the processor 23 determines that the input tool is a finger, it passes through the step 130. The display 210 displays a common function interface. It is worth mentioning that the processor in the handheld device can adjust the size of the user interface option when converting and displaying the user interface according to the type of the tool. When the input tool is a stylus, as shown in Figure 6, the options on the user interface 600 are displayed in a normal size. However, when the processor determines that the input tool is the finger of the user, it will use The options of the interface are fully enlarged to the size of the finger operable, as shown in the user interface 700 of Figure 7, to facilitate the user to operate the user interface through the finger. The above options include images that can be selected by the input tool ( Items such as icon) or image (image). In addition to converting different user interfaces according to the type of input tool, the handheld device of this creation can also perform various preset functions in different ways according to the type of input tool, as shown in the flow chart of FIG. Figure 8 is a flow chart of a user interface operation method performed by the handheld device according to an embodiment of the present invention. The detailed description is as follows. First, the processor of the handheld device receives the input signal through the touch sensing device (step 81), determines the type of the input guard that generates the input signal (step 82), and then performs the preset function according to the type of the guard. (Step 830). For example, the preset function may be to switch the corresponding user interface according to the type of the tool (step 84A), and the related details are included in the previous embodiment, and are not described again. The function can also be to turn on or off a specific function according to the type of tool (steps). The processing can also perform other preset functions according to the tool surface 'not limited to the above example. Step 850 (4) The function can be the user interface translation function ( Panning), user interface scrolling function (scr〇1Ung), or both (step 860). For example, when the input tool is a stylus, the user interface is moved and scrolled, and when the input tool is a finger, the user interface pan and scroll function is turned on, so that the user can use the finger to pan or scroll. The content of the interface. The detailed flow of step 860 is shown in Figure 8B. First, in step 861, it is judged that the input tool type is a finger, and the user interface panning and scrolling function is turned on. At step 862, it is checked if the contact or proximity state of the finger has been removed, that is, whether the finger has left the touch sensing device. If not, the user interface translation function is performed in step 863 to allow the user interface to pan as the user's finger moves. On the other hand, if the finger has left the touch sensing device, it is checked in step 864 if there is a movement while the finger is away. Silk secret, the end of the record. If it is correct, proceed to step 17 M333606 96-11-29 865 ' to perform the user interface scrolling function, so that the user interface scrolls with the direction of the finger movement. Alternatively, the particular function of step 850 can be a multiple selection function (step 870). For example, when the input tool is a stylus, the multi-selection '2 can be turned on, so that the user can select the plurality of Zhao items or function items on the user interface while the input tool is the finger, and the multi-select function is off when the input tool is a finger. To allow users to select only a single item. Because the accuracy of the finger is not as good as the stylus, it is easy to mis-select, which can improve the precision and efficiency of use. The detailed flow of step 87 is as shown in Fig. 8C. First, in step 871, it is judged that the input tool type is a stylus, and the multiple selection function is turned on. Then in step 872, it is checked whether the stylus contacts or approaches the area of the touch sensing device to cover any options. If not, the process ends here. If so, in step 873 all options covered by the contact area are selected. In yet another aspect, the particular functionality of step 850 can include a drawing brush function and a drawing eraser function (step 88). For example, when the input tool is a stylus, the edge brush function is turned on and the drawing eraser function is turned off, so that the user can draw with the stylus. On the other hand, when the input tool is a finger, close the _ brush function and turn on the 四 (4) eraser function, let the user use the finger as an eraser to erase the previous edge image. In addition, the processor can also turn other specific functions on or off according to the type of tool, not limited to the above examples. The handheld device of the above embodiment can be extended to a general electronic device. The method flow of the above embodiments can also be performed by the operating system of the handheld device or the electronic device or the function of the electronic device. The above 18 M333606 96-11-29 system or application can be stored in a computer-readable recording medium, which can be executed by % sub-installation.

Referring first to Figures 9A and 9β, the electronic device includes a housing 910, a touch display 92A, and a processor 93A. The housing 910 has an opening 91Ga in communication with the outside. The touch display 92 is disposed in the housing 910, and the opening 91 〇 a exposes a portion of the touch display interface 920. In addition, the touch display 92 is configured to receive an input tool, and the touch sensing device 920 has a touch sensing plane 92A. It should be noted that since the touch display 920 is located in the housing 91, a height difference (as shown by the area A) is formed between the housing 910 at the edge of the opening 910a and the touch sensing plane 92A. This height difference is, for example, about PCT. In other words, the range of movement of the input tool is limited by the opening 91 〇 a. Further, the processor 930 is coupled to the touch display 92 〇 and is used to determine the type of the input tool. As in the previous embodiment, the processor 93 can determine the type of input tool based on the area, pressure, temperature, or image when the touch sensing device 924 is operated by the input tool. Similarly, according to the manner of the method, the touch sensing device 924 can include a resistive sensor, and the touch sensing device 924 can include a capacitive sensor. Alternatively, the touch display 920 can include a temperature sensor. Alternatively, the touch display 920 may include an image capture device for operating the package and inputting an image of the tool. As for the judgment process and the execution of the preset function, etc., it has been seen in the previous embodiment, and the description will not be repeated. It should be noted that although the method of displaying different user interfaces may be different depending on the face of the input tool, the method of judging the display of different user interfaces is not limited to the above-mentioned judgment method. .
