Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and an electronic device for selecting an object. The method includes detecting a motion parameter characterizing screen motion information, and changing a relative position of the selection indicator to the at least one object based on the motion parameter, wherein the selection indicator and the at least one object are displayed in the screen.

FIG. 1 schematically illustrates a flow chart of a method of selecting an object in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.

As shown in FIG. 1, the method includes operations S101 to S102.

In operation S101, motion parameters characterizing the screen motion information are detected.

In operation S102, a relative position of the selection indicator and the at least one object is changed according to the motion parameter, wherein the selection indicator and the at least one object are displayed in the screen.

A method of selecting an object according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, by detecting a motion parameter characterizing screen motion information in a process of selecting an object, thereby changing a relative position of the selection indicator and the at least one object according to the motion parameter. Wherein the selection indicator and the at least one object are displayed in the screen. The process is based on the motion parameters of the screen, and does not require a touch operation, thereby releasing the hand that the user performs the touch operation, which facilitates the user's operation in the case where the touch operation is inconvenient with the finger.

For example, some wearable devices have small screens, and it is easy to cause misoperation by finger touch, and it is not natural enough for the device worn by the arm to require two hands when the touch operation is performed. Or, for example, when the user's touch operation is occupied, and the telephone call needs to be operated in time, the touch operation is inconvenient. In these similar cases, the method of selecting an object according to an embodiment of the present disclosure can change the relative position of the change selection indicator and the at least one object by detecting the motion parameter characterizing the screen motion information, thereby avoiding the touch operation of the finger. Mistakes or inconvenience.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, detecting the motion parameter characterizing the screen motion information in operation S101 may include the motion parameter characterizing the screen motion information detected by any means.

For example, an accelerometer or a gyroscope or the like that matches the real-time motion state of the screen is configured on the screen or the device on which the screen is located, and the motion parameter displayed by the accelerometer or the gyroscope is obtained by detecting, thereby characterizing the screen. The motion parameters of the motion information.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the detecting method in operation S101 is not limited to the above example as long as the motion parameter that can be detected can characterize the motion information of the screen.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the screen may include a screen of any electronic device, such as a wearable curved screen such as a smart watch, a smart bracelet, or a screen of a handheld electronic device such as a mobile phone or a tablet computer, but is not limited thereto. .

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the motion parameter may include any information such as displacement, velocity, acceleration, angular velocity, angular acceleration, and the like, but is not limited thereto.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the screen motion includes any one or both of the following: rotation or translation.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the rotation of the screen may be when the whole screen is regarded as a mass point of the space, the position of the screen is unchanged in the space, but at the same time, when the screen is regarded as a specific shape entity, the screen It is capable of rotating around a fixed axis in any direction through its center of mass in space.

For example, the screen of a tablet phone rotates about a fixed axis that passes through its center of mass and perpendicularly to the screen, or, for example, the screen of a tablet phone rotates about a fixed axis that passes through its center of mass and is coplanar with its screen.

Or alternatively, for example, a curved screen rotates about a central axis that passes through its center of mass and is fixed in position. For example, the curved screen is worn on the user's arm. When the user's arm only rotates but does not shift, the motion of the curved screen is rotated.

At this time, the detected linear velocity and linear acceleration values in the motion parameters characterizing the screen motion information are zero.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the translation of the screen may be when the screen as a whole is regarded as a mass point of the space, the position of the screen changes in the space, but at the same time, when the screen is regarded as a specific shape entity, the screen Does not rotate around any axis.

For example, the user's hand-held mobile phone (for example, the mobile phone screen is up) moves up and down and left and right in the space, but the screen does not rotate in the user's hand, and the user's wrist does not rotate anyly. At this point the motion of the phone screen is panning.

At this time, the detected angular velocity and angular acceleration value in the motion parameter characterizing the screen motion information are zero.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the movement of the screen may also be simultaneous with rotation and translation. At this time, the detected linear velocity and angular velocity in the motion parameter characterizing the screen motion information are not zero.

For example, while the user's hand shaker moves up and down and left and right in the space, the screen of the mobile phone also rotates relative to the palm of the user; or, while the user's hand shaker moves up and down and left and right in the space, although the screen of the mobile phone does not move relative to the palm of the user, But the user's wrist turns.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the phase of the selection indicator and the at least one object are changed according to the motion parameter in operation S102 For the location.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the selection indicator includes any symbol capable of indicating a selected target, such as a button, a small window, an arrow, and the like, which is not limited in this application.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the at least one object includes any object that is accessible and/or operable on the screen, such as an application software icon, a menu, a file, a list, a volume axis, a timeline, and the like. Those skilled in the art can make settings according to actual conditions, and no limitation is imposed on them.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the relative position of the selection indicator and the at least one object is changed according to the motion parameter, including any one or both of: correspondingly moving the selection indicator in the screen according to the motion of the screen Position, or correspondingly moving the position of the at least one object in the screen according to the motion of the screen.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the position of the selection indicator in the screen is correspondingly moved according to the movement of the screen, and the position of the selection indicator in the screen may be correspondingly moved according to the movement of the screen, and the at least The position of an object on this screen does not change. Alternatively, it is also possible to correspondingly move the position of the selection indicator in the screen according to the movement of the screen, while also moving the position of the at least one object in the screen.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the position of the at least one object in the screen is correspondingly moved according to the movement of the screen, and the position of the at least one object in the screen may be correspondingly moved according to the movement of the screen, and the selection is The position of the indicator in this screen does not change. Alternatively, it is also possible to correspondingly move the position of the at least one object in the screen according to the movement of the screen, while also moving the position of the selection indicator in the screen.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, moving the position of the selection indicator in the screen according to the movement of the screen includes: moving a position of the selection indicator in the screen in a direction opposite to a movement direction of the screen, or The position of the selection indicator in the screen is moved in the same direction as the direction of motion of the screen.

Specifically, the position of the selection indicator in the screen is moved in a direction opposite to the moving direction of the screen, and the selection indicator may be synchronously moved with the screen on the one hand when the screen is moving in space. On the one hand, it moves in a direction opposite to the direction of movement of the screen with respect to the space, so that the position of the selection indicator in the screen changes. Since the selection indicator is displayed on the screen, the screen inevitably causes the selection indicator to move in synchronization with the space movement. At the same time, the selection indicator also has a motion component relative to a direction in which the space is opposite to the direction of motion of the screen, so that the display position of the selection indicator in the screen can be changed.

For example, when the screen is panned in space, the selection indicator moves on the one hand as the screen is synchronized in spatial synchronization, and on the other hand moves relative to the space in a direction opposite to the linear velocity or linear acceleration of the screen translation, Thereby the position of the selection indicator in the screen changes.

For example, when the screen is rotated in space, the selection indicator rotates on the one hand as the screen rotates in space, and on the other hand rotates in a direction opposite to the angular velocity or angular acceleration of the screen rotation. The position of the selection indicator in the screen is changed.

Or, for example, when the screen is rotated and translated simultaneously in space, the selection indicator is rotated and translated on the one hand as the screen is synchronized in space, and on the other hand is opposite to the angular velocity or angular acceleration of the screen relative to the space. The direction is rotated, and the line speed of the screen movement or the direction of the line acceleration is reversed, so that the direction of movement of the selection indicator in the screen changes.

Similarly, moving the position of the selection indicator in the screen in the same direction as the movement direction of the screen may be that when the screen is moving in space, the selection indicator moves on the one hand in synchronization with the screen on the one hand, and On the one hand, the movement is performed in the same direction as the movement direction of the screen with respect to the space, so that the position of the selection indicator in the screen changes.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, moving the position of the at least one object in the screen according to the movement of the screen includes: moving a position of the at least one object in the screen in a direction opposite to a moving direction of the screen, Or moving the position of the at least one object in the screen in the same direction as the moving direction of the screen, thereby changing the relative position of the selection indicator and the at least one object.

Similarly, the position of the at least one object in the screen is moved in a direction opposite to the moving direction of the screen. Specifically, when the screen is moving in space, the at least one object moves synchronously with the screen on the one hand. On the other hand, the movement is relative to the space in a direction opposite to the direction of movement of the screen, so that the position of at least one object in the screen changes.

Or moving the position of the at least one object in the screen in the same direction as the moving direction of the screen. Specifically, when the screen is moving in space, the at least one object moves synchronously with the screen on the one hand, and On the one hand, it moves in the same direction as the direction of movement of the screen with respect to the space, so that the position of at least one object in the screen changes.

To facilitate a clearer description of changing the relative position of the selection indicator to at least one object based on the motion parameter, please refer to the examples of Figures 2a-2d.

2a-2d schematically illustrate an application scenario diagram of changing a relative position of a selection indicator to at least one object, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.

For convenience of description, it is assumed in FIGS. 2a-2d that the selection indicator is an arrow as shown in the figure, and the at least one object is represented by an accessible rectangular icon, such as object A, object B, and object C as shown in the figure. .

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the selection indicator in the screen 200 may be at any initial position in the screen 200, such as a default position, before operation S101. The default location can be set according to the actual situation, no restrictions on this. For convenience of description, it is assumed that the position of the lower left corner of the screen 200 shown in FIG. 2a is the origin, the X axis is horizontally to the right, and the Y axis is vertically upward to establish a coordinate system, as shown in FIGS. 2a to 2d. And, assuming that the screen 200 is selected at the beginning of the indicator 201 The start position coincides with the position of the object B as shown in Fig. 2a.

The method described in FIG. 1 will be further described with reference to FIGS. 2a to 2d in conjunction with specific embodiments.

It is assumed that the screen 200 does not move as shown in Fig. 2a.

Thereafter, it is detected that the position of the screen 200 is shifted by a distance in the positive direction of the X-axis, and the position of the screen 200 after the movement is as shown in Figs. 2b, 2c and 2d.

While the screen 200 is moving, the relative position of the selection indicator 201 to at least one object (object A, object B, and object C) is changed according to the motion parameter.

For example, the position of the selection indicator 201 in the screen 200 is correspondingly moved according to the movement of the screen 200, and the position of the selection indicator 201 in the screen is moved in a direction opposite to the movement direction of the screen 200. At this time, the position of the screen 200 and the screen in the screen 200 are as shown in FIG. 2b.

As shown in FIG. 2b, the position of the selection indicator 201 in the screen 200 coincides with the position of the object A. It can be seen that the selection indicator 201 is synchronized with the screen 200 on the one hand while the screen 200 is moving forward along the X axis. The forward movement to the X-axis and, on the other hand, the negative movement of the X-axis relative to the XY coordinate system, causing the position of the selection indicator 201 in the screen 200 to move in the negative X-axis direction relative to its initial position.

Or, for another example, the position of the at least one object (object A, object B, and object C) in the screen 200 is correspondingly moved according to the motion of the screen 200, and moved in the same direction as the moving direction of the screen 200. The position of at least one object (object A, object B, and object C) in the screen 200. At this time, the position of the screen 200 and the screen in the screen 200 are as shown in FIG. 2c.

As shown in FIG. 2c, the position of the selection indicator 201 in the screen 200 coincides with the position of the object A, and the object A, the object B, and the object C in the screen 200 are visible while the screen is moving forward along the X axis. Aspects move forward in the positive direction of the X-axis with respect to the XY coordinate system on the other hand, and cause the object A, the object B, and the object C in the screen 200 to be on the screen 200. The position in the middle moves in the positive direction of the X axis with respect to its initial position.

Or, for another example, the selection indicator 201 and the position of the at least one object (object A, object B, and object C) in the screen 200 are correspondingly moved according to the motion of the screen 200, and in accordance with the movement direction of the screen 200. The position of the selection indicator 201 in the screen 200 is moved in the same direction while the position of the at least one object (object A, object B, and object C) in the screen 200 is moved in a direction opposite to the moving direction of the screen 200. At this time, the position of the screen 200 and the screen in the screen 200 are as shown in FIG. 2d.

As shown in FIG. 2d, the position after the selection indicator 201 and the at least one object movement (object A, object B, and object C) coincide with the position of the object C. It can be seen that while the screen 200 is moving in the forward direction along the X axis, on the one hand, the selection indicator 201 and the object A, the object B and the object C move synchronously with the screen 200 in the positive direction of the X axis, and on the other hand, the selection The selection indicator 201 moves in the negative direction of the X-axis with respect to the XY coordinate system, and the object A, the object B, and the object C move in the positive direction of the X-axis with respect to the XY coordinate system.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the movement includes continuous movement, or discontinuous movement. During the specific implementation, any one or two suitable mobile modes may be selected as needed, and the present application does not specifically limit the application.

For example, if the at least one object is specifically, for example, an icon, a menu, or the like, in order to achieve a shortcut operation, shortening the operation time, the movement may select a movement that is set to be discontinuous, such that the position of the selection indicator and the at least one object The positions overlap, as shown in Figures 2a to 2d.

For another example, as shown in FIG. 3, if the at least one object, for example, the object D is specifically a volume axis, a time axis, a brightness axis, etc., in order to meet the requirement of continuous change, the movement may be selected to be set as continuous movement, thereby The relative position of the selection indicator 201 and the object D can be continuously changed.

FIG. 4 schematically illustrates a flow chart of a method of selecting an object in accordance with another embodiment of the present disclosure.

As shown in FIG. 4, after the operation S101 and the operation S102, the method further includes an operation S403.

In operation S403, when the selection indicator coincides with the position of any of the at least one object, the object whose position coincides with the selection indicator is selected according to the preset action.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the positional coincidence may include any positional relationship having intersections, such as an intersection relationship, an inclusion relationship, and the like. It is to be understood that the positional relationship according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited thereto as long as the selection indicator and the position of the at least one object have an intersection. Thereby determining the position of the selected object.

According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the preset action may be specifically set according to requirements, and no specific limitation is imposed thereon.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, after the selection indicator coincides with the position of any of the at least one object, the object whose position coincides with the selection indicator is selected according to the preset action. The process can be completed by any preset action, so that the touch operation is not required, so that the operation is controllable.
