Embodiment
In following preferred embodiment, describe device of the present invention and connecting method thereof in detail.But notion of the present invention also can be used for other scope, and following listed examples only is used to purpose of the present invention and manner of execution are described, is not in order to limit its scope.
Figure 1A connects the system architecture synoptic diagram of mouse for computing machine.Please refer to Fig. 1, mouse 120 is undertaken online by wireless transceiver 130 and computing machine 110, with moving of cursor on the control screen.Then further specify the framework of mouse inside.Figure 1B is a mouse inside structure synoptic diagram.Please refer to Figure 1B, comprise microprocessor 122, light emitting diode 124, plane optical displacement sensor 126, aerial displacement transducer 128 and a wireless transport module (not shown) in mouse 120 inside.General optical mouse only comprises above-mentioned microprocessor 122, light emitting diode 124 usually, and (Light Emitting Diode LED), assembly such as plane optical displacement sensor 126, and transfers to computing machine by wireless devices such as bluetooths with mouse signal.The present invention also comprises aerial displacement transducer 128, and when the operator scheme of mouse 120 switched to aerial mode, the inclination angle amount or the amount of movement that receive by aerial displacement transducer 128 calculated the mouse signal of actual transmission.
This aerial displacement transducer 128 is including, but not limited to can be an accelerometer, gyroscope and MEMS sensor etc.And the light emitting diode 124 of mouse 120 inside emits beam, by desktop bounce back mouse body, other embodiment, also can use organic EL component (organicelectro-luminescence device, OELD) or laser diode (Laser Diode) replace light emitting diode as light source.
Moving of mouse 120 judged in the light refraction variation (being Doppler effect/Doppler effect) that plane optical displacement sensor 126 can receive after the refraction, and relevant technology can be with reference to shown in US6872931 a case; Perhaps, can gather and receive formed image in institute's refracted ray, and judge moving of mouse 120 by the image that contrast generates, relevant technology can be with reference to shown in US6281882 a case.
With the latter is example, plane optical displacement sensor 126 can detect the surface quality value of an operation planar, plane optical displacement sensor 126 is gathered the light that is transmitted into by mouse 120 bottoms and is formed image, and by several features of the digital signal processing chip detected image of plane optical displacement sensor 126 inside, and calculate the surface quality value according to these feature quantity.Owing to after mouse 120 leaves desktop, possibly can't detect the surface quality value, or the surface quality value that obtains is lower, therefore can be by calculating this surface quality value, judge whether mouse 120 leaves desktop, or place desktop, and then judge the opportunity of switching the mouse operating mode automatically.
The flow process of mouse action mode switching method of the present invention then is described, Fig. 2 is the process flow diagram of mouse action mode switching method.Please refer to Fig. 2, mouse action mode switching method of the present invention, microprocessor by mouse is carried out, and the method for described switching mouse action mode comprises: the surface quality value (step S210) that reads the placement mouse plane of planar light displacement study sensor continuously; Mean value (step S220) every a unit interval gauging surface mass value; Judge whether mean value is lower than preset value (step S230); If be lower than preset value ("Yes" of step S230), then switching operation modes is aerial operator scheme, and obtains the mouse signal (step S240) of output by aerial displacement transducer; If be not lower than (more than or equal to) preset value ("No" of step S230), then switching operation modes is the desktop operated pattern, and obtains the mouse signal (step S250) of output by the plane optical displacement sensor.
When holding mouse and control mouse with aerial operator scheme, regular meeting causes the miscount of surface quality value because finger touches to the LED light emitting source of mouse bottom, causes light refraction.Therefore, we make the surface quality value calculated in the unit interval average, and the average conduct of surface quality value judges whether to switch the foundation of the operator scheme of mouse according to this again.The frequency that produces and send signal based on mouse is the microsecond layout, so the time frame of unit interval is the microsecond magnitude time interval.
When mouse is aerial operator scheme by the desktop operated mode switch, be to save the power consumption of mouse, and the light of avoiding the mouse bottom to send cause the user and around discomfort on personnel's sense organ.In certain embodiments, mouse is when switching to aerial operator scheme, can further reduce inner plane optical displacement sensor and the required electric power of luminescence component, light emitting diode (Light Emitting Diode for example, LED), organic EL component (organic electro-luminescence device, OELD) and laser diode (Laser Diode) etc.
In another embodiment, mouse also can be directly detecting the surface quality value when low, be directly switch into aerial operator scheme, and do not need again the average of gauging surface mass value.Fig. 3 is another process flow diagram of mouse action mode switching method.Please refer to Fig. 3, may further comprise the steps: the surface quality value (step S310) that reads the placement mouse plane of planar light displacement study sensor at the described mouse action mode switching method of another embodiment; Judge whether the surface quality value is lower than preset value (step S320); If be lower than preset value ("Yes" of step S320), then switching operation modes is aerial operator scheme, and obtains the mouse signal (step S330) of output by aerial displacement transducer; And if be not lower than (more than or equal to) preset value ("No" of step S320), then switching operation modes is the desktop operated pattern, and obtains the mouse signal (step S340) of output by the plane optical displacement sensor.
In sum, mouse action mode switching method judges by the detected surface quality value of plane optical displacement sensor whether mouse places on the plane that is suitable for operating, with the operator scheme of automatic switchover mouse at present.
It should be noted that for the optical flat sensor 126 that utilizes the light refraction principle (please refer to U.S. US6281882 case), when optical sensor 126 can't read light refraction variation, can judge that mouse leaves operated plane at present; Otherwise,, can judge that then mouse is placed on this operation planar at present if can read this light refraction and change the time.
The user can be according to custom at the desktop operated mouse, or pick up mouse conveniently, must not carry out any blocked operation, allow the user operate mouse aloft and automatically switch to aerial operator scheme, be that bulletin device (presenter) or game console use in order to mouse is worked as.
Certainly; the present invention also can have other various embodiments; under the situation that does not deviate from spirit of the present invention and essence thereof; those of ordinary skill in the art can make various corresponding changes and distortion according to the present invention, but these corresponding changes and distortion all should belong to the protection domain of the appended claim of the present invention.
