Abstract

This invention relates to one mouse cursor control technique, which can test certain reference object displacement change and according to signal or code to control other electron device, which comprises the following principle: signal emission sends signal to the reference object by human hand; the signal tester tests reference emission signal and the data process part connects signals in current time and the signals before and behind for analysis, comparing and computing to generate control signal or codes.

Description

A kind of control technique of mouse

● technical field: the invention belongs to the mouse technical field, especially a kind of formula mouse of wearing.

● background technology:

The mouse technology, developing into has had history decades now, and to the laser optics mouse, its meaning has only one nothing but from initial wooden shell mechanical mouse, that is exactly satisfy the people to greatest extent easy to use, is that people provide a kind of instrument of controlling electronic equipment in only mode.The input control apparatus of the mouse mode of enumerating in full detail mainly contains following several mode:

1. traditional mechanical mouse

2. trace ball

3. optical alignment technology

4. touch pad input technology (TOUCH PAD) comprises condenser type or resistance-type

5.Ibm the TrackPoint of company (Track Point)

6. camera eyeball image analysis technology

7. the location technology system of gyro or acceleration transducer

Here just do not discuss its know-why one by one, from popular angle analysis, optical positioning system is the most universal now, secondly is the necessary touchpad technology of day by day popularizing of laptop computer.In top several mouse technology, last two kinds of technical difficulty are higher, also have very big defective aspect volume and the precision.In addition all to have individual characteristics to be exactly as mouse itself be to use separately to other mouse, it must rely on another object of reference to work, just as our used at ordinary times mouse must be placed on could use on the desktop, thereby the mouse technology of popularizing now all has certain limitation in the use, because staff must adapt to a certain object of reference, grown service time, this adaptation just becomes a kind of burden, influence is used, purpose of the present invention is sought a kind of mode of mouse control flexibly exactly, use staff self object of reference each other, can thoroughly break away from extraneous object of reference in use and all can use.

● summary of the invention:

A kind of control technique of mouse, can detect a certain object of reference displacement body changes also and can produce a kind of signal or coding of controlling other electronic equipment according to changing, mainly constitute, below it is analyzed explanation by housing (A), signal projector (b), signal detector (c), data processing section (d).

Housing (A) can be worn on hand, the signal projector (B) that is installed on the housing (A) is transmitted into sound or light signal on one the object of reference (E) of a certain position as object of reference with staff, the signal detector (C) that is installed on the housing (A) then detects the signal that object of reference (E) reflects, when object of reference (E) has relative displacement to change, then corresponding variation will also take place in the signal that detected of signal detector (c), data processing section (D) then continuously signal detector (C) detected signal and signal detector (C) sometime at this moment between before or after detected signal analyze comparison, when signal change and signal between the difference that changes when surpassing a setting value, then can produce a control signal or coding, control signal or coding can be by external interface circuit by associated electronic device (computers, mobile phone, game machine, palm PC pda, Deng) discern.

Accompanying drawing 1 is a schematic diagram.

The signal that present setting signal transmitter (B) is transmitted is a light signal, this signal is referenced thing (E) and reflects and be detected as corresponding voltage v by signal detector (C), data processing section (D) carries out ad (analog to digital) conversion to the voltage signal that is detected every a time t, obtain a digital value DIG who quantizes, therefore obtain one group of continuous digital value DIGt0 to DIGtn; The digital value DIGtn of current time tn is stored the digital value DIGtn+1 that is used for next moment tn+1 and makes comparisons, when the difference of DIGtn and DIGtn+1 surpasses a setting value, data processing section (D) is defined as this variation between object of reference (E) and signal projector (B), the signal detector (C) and has relative displacement, exports a control signal then; Data processing section (D) is actually a hardware circuit or software program function, can be compositions such as discrete component or single-chip microcomputer.

If on above-mentioned principle basis, add one group of signal projector (b) and signal detector (c) again, just have (B), (C) and (B1), (C1) two groups of emissions and receiving unit, purpose is to detect the object of reference of X, Y both direction, the control signal of output both direction.

● specific implementation:

According to top content description, emission of two groups of signals and receiving unit (b) (c) and (b1) (c1) all can be installed on the housing and be mutually certain angle, become case design suitable shape to be worn on the finger again, it can detect the relative motion signal of the both direction that other position of finger produces with respect to finger position that housing is worn, data processing section (D) can the same X that exports with mouse after these signal analysis and processing, the cursor control signal of Y both direction, when position that housing is worn not simultaneously, the hand of its detection also different with reference to the position mainly contain several modes:

First as shown in Figure 2, housing is when being worn on the thumb, emission of two groups of signals and receiving unit (b), (c) and (b1), the detection mode of (c1): a cover signal projector (B), signal detector (C) part are used to detect the relativeness between thumb and the forefinger (or except that thumb other point); Another set of signal projector (B1), signal connect detecting device (C1) part and are used to detect relativeness between the thumb and the centre of the palm.

Second as shown in Figure 3, housing is to be worn on other when finger signal emission except that thumb and the detection mode of receiver: a cover signal projector (B), signal detector (C) are used to detect the relation between each dactylus of forefinger (or other finger except that thumb), and another set of signal projector (B1), signal detector (C1) part are used to detect the relation between forefinger (or outside the thumb other point) and the thumb.

The control signal that data processing section (D) is handled back output according to described method in the summary of the invention to signal can be connected the control associated electronic device by wired or wireless connected mode (G) thereby with the external world, certainly this control signal will be by suitable coding techniques coding, so that discerned, must add also during in addition as a complete product that power supply could work by external interface circuit.

Function button can be installed on the housing (A) or touch strongly, to reach the effect of some function buttons, the left and right press key of mouse etc. for example touches and strongly also can be designed to other function that adapts as required.

Only depend on thumb and and same hand another the finger between action relationships, just can be used as mouse and control relevant device, can solve the problem that a lot of other mouses exist in use, such as the strong strain problem of the flesh of the frequent mouse hand formula that occurs, typewriting now simultaneously hand constantly between keyboard and mouse the problem of frequent exchange, also have its volume to can be controlled to very little, be helpful for using laptop computer.
