Wherein, a 1Be D1/2, b 1 2For
Figure BDA0000039700380000102
Set up second group of hyperbolic curve B1, B2, the hyperbolic curve that it forms for the range difference D2 of distance between F character and sound wave sensor device S2, S3, wherein Y2 is the center line of sound wave sensor device S2, S3 present position, and the straight-line equation of Y2 is x=c/2, and the Hyperbolic Equation of B1, B2 can be expressed as:
Figure BDA0000039700380000103

Wherein, a 3Be D3/2, b 3 2Be c 2-a 3 2
And these 3 groups of hyperbolic curve A1A2, B1B2, C1C2 intersect at intersection point K1, K2.
3 groups of hyperbolic curve A1A2, B1B2, C1C2 of 155 pairs of foundation of processing unit ask for it and separate jointly, and then this separates the intersection point K1 that is these three groups of hyperbolic curves and intersects, the coordinate figure of K2 jointly.I.e. three equations to setting up:
( x + c 2 ) 2 a 1 2 - y 2 b 1 2 = 1 ;
( x - c 2 ) 2 a 2 2 - y 2 b 2 2 = 1 ;
x 2 a 3 2 - y 2 b 3 2 = 1 ;
Ask for the x, the value of y, the i.e. coordinate figure of K1, K2 that are fit to simultaneously.Because in actual applications, input face 10 only may be positioned at a position at one time, and therefore, the F character only may be positioned at these three groups hyp one of them intersection point, for example in two intersection points of K1, K2.So computing unit 1513 is only chosen among three groups of hyp intersection point K1, K2 the coordinate figure of the coordinate figure of any one as the F character, and processing unit 151 is stored to storage unit 153 with the coordinate figure of the F character chosen.
After the coordinate figure of F character was finished in computing unit 1513 storages, the look-up table in storage unit 153 was searched and the coordinate figure corresponding characters, and the ASCII character encoded radio of this character correspondence, and wherein the ASCII of this F character is encoded to 01000101.Computing unit 1513 exports it to information output unit 17 read the ASCII character 01000101 of F character in storage unit 153 after.
Information output unit 17 exports it to receiving equipment 2 after receiving the ASCII coding of processing unit 151 output, and information output unit 17 is the interface circuit of an outupt coded signal.
When the user need carry out information interaction or need control receiving equipment 2 time by input equipment 1 and receiving equipment 2, the user touches in the input equipment 1 corresponding characters on the input face 10, the sound wave that sends thereby each the sound wave sensor device reception user in the sound wave sensing cell 13 touches input equipment 1 corresponding character, thereby and mistiming of the sound wave that receives according to each sound wave sensor device of control module 15 and to calculating the location in the position of the character on the input face 10, and according to the position of character output corresponding codes information to information output unit 17, correspondingly, 17 of information output units export above-mentioned coded message to receiving equipment 2, thereby receiving equipment 2 can be discerned the character that the user imports by input equipment 1 according to its coded message, and carries out corresponding action according to this coded message.Therefore, the user can utilize input equipment 1 and receiving equipment 2 to carry out information interaction easily.
