Description

The method for controlling backlight thereof of the backlight control system of remote controller, remote controller and remote controller
Technical field
The present invention relates to remote controller technical field, in particular to the method for controlling backlight thereof of a kind of backlight control system of remote controller, a kind of remote controller and a kind of remote controller.
Background technology
In correlation technique, in order to make user in dark conditions still can remote controller exactly, can be remote configuration back light, and in order to reduce the power consumption of remote control, usually there are following two kinds of ways:
(1) when user does not touch remote controller key, back light is closed, and when user touches remote controller key, opens back light.Although this way solves user can not the problem of exact operations remote controller under dark condition, but user is when environment illumination intensity is lower, owing to not seeing the button on Chu's remote controller, therefore first button can only be touched blindly, so that just can precise manipulation be carried out after back light to be opened, be unfavorable for the operating experience of user on the one hand, also easily misoperation is caused on the other hand, and under the condition that intensity of illumination is higher, if user triggers remote controller key remote controller also can open back light, add energy consumption.
(2) when user does not pick up remote controller, do not open back light, when user picks up remote controller, open back light.Although this way can avoid the problem of user's false triggering, also can open back light when intensity of illumination is higher, too increase the energy consumption of remote controller.
Therefore, how guarantee that user is in dark condition still can under the prerequisite of exact operations remote controller, the power consumption reducing remote controller becomes technical problem urgently to be resolved hurrily.
Summary of the invention
The present invention is intended at least to solve one of technical problem existed in prior art or correlation technique.
For this reason, one object of the present invention is to propose and a kind ofly can guarantees that user is be in dark condition still can remote controller exactly, reduces the backlight control system of the remote controller of the power consumption of remote controller simultaneously.
Another object of the present invention is to propose a kind of remote controller.
Another object of the present invention is the method for controlling backlight thereof proposing a kind of remote controller.
For achieving the above object, embodiment according to a first aspect of the invention, proposes a kind of backlight control system of remote controller, comprising: intensity of illumination detecting unit, for detecting the real-time lighting intensity in environment residing for remote controller; Judging unit, for judging whether the described real-time lighting intensity that described intensity of illumination detecting unit detects is less than or equal to predetermined threshold; Control unit, during for judging that described real-time lighting intensity is less than or equal to predetermined threshold at described judging unit, state of a control detecting unit detects user and whether contacts described remote controller, and when described state detection unit detects that user contacts described remote controller, back light to described remote controller sends start signal, to open described back light; Whether described state detection unit, contact described remote controller for detecting user.
According to the backlight control system of the remote controller of the embodiment of the present invention, be less than or equal to predetermined threshold by the real-time lighting intensity in environment residing for remote controller and whether contact the trigger condition of remote controller as detecting user, ensure that only when intensity of illumination is lower on the one hand, just open back light, avoid also opening back light when intensity of illumination is higher and the energy consumption that increases remote controller, improve the flexibility that back light is controlled; On the other hand, also user is made just clearly can to see the position of each button when touching remote controller, so that operate remote controller, solving user can not the problem of exact operations remote controller in the environment of dark, to it also avoid in correlation technique simultaneously and only after user triggers the button of remote controller, just open back light and the situation that causes misoperation, improve the accuracy to remote controller operation in dark surrounds.As one comparatively preferred embodiment, detect real-time lighting intensity in environment residing for remote controller by light sensor, such as photo resistance or photodiode etc.

As shown in Figure 4 B, motion detection unit according to an embodiment of the invention, comprise: vibrating sensor 410, wherein, vibrating sensor 410 is connected with the control unit 402 in Fig. 4 A, when user does not pick up remote controller, vibrating sensor 410 is normally off, now node 412 place is low level, when user picks up remote controller, vibrating sensor 410 is in normally open, and now node 412 place is high level, control unit 402 changes according to the level at node 412 place, judges whether user picks up remote controller.Such as: when the level signal at node 412 place becomes high level from low level, then can determine that user contacts remote controller.
Fig. 5 shows the flow chart of the method for controlling backlight thereof of remote controller according to another embodiment of the invention.
As shown in Figure 5, the method for controlling backlight thereof of remote controller according to another embodiment of the invention comprises:
Step 502, detects the real-time lighting intensity D in environment residing for remote controller.
Step 504, judges whether intensity of illumination D is less than or equal to predetermined threshold D1, if so, then performs step 506; Otherwise perform step 510.Wherein, D1 can be 0.3 lux.
Step 506, when judging that intensity of illumination D is greater than predetermined threshold D1, the back light of remote controller is closed.
Step 508, when judging that intensity of illumination D is less than or equal to predetermined threshold D1, opening detecting unit.
Step 510, judges whether state detection unit detects that user contacts remote controller, if user contacts remote controller, then performs step 512, otherwise performs step 506.
Step 512, controls backlight open.Intensity of illumination D in environment residing for remote controller be less than or equal to predetermined threshold D1 and user contacts remote controller time, control back light open.
Step 514, opens after the T1 time and closes backlight, and often open to avoid back light or open the long period and increase the energy consumption of terminal, wherein T1 can be 3 seconds.
More than be described with reference to the accompanying drawings technical scheme of the present invention, the present invention proposes a kind of backlight control techniques of remote controller, ensure that only when intensity of illumination is lower on the one hand, just open back light, avoid also opening back light when intensity of illumination is higher and the energy consumption that increases remote controller, improve the flexibility that back light is controlled; On the other hand, also user is made just clearly can to see the position of each button when touching remote controller, so that operate remote controller, solving user can not the problem of exact operations remote controller in the environment of dark, to it also avoid in correlation technique simultaneously and only after user triggers the button of remote controller, just open back light and the situation that causes misoperation, improve the accuracy to remote controller operation in dark surrounds.
The foregoing is only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, be not limited to the present invention, for a person skilled in the art, the present invention can have various modifications and variations.Within the spirit and principles in the present invention all, any amendment done, equivalent replacement, improvement etc., all should be included within protection scope of the present invention.
