Fig. 1 schematically illustrates the block diagram of the electronic equipment using dummy keyboard.As shown in Figure 1, the electronic equipment can wrap Include touch screen.As long as user's finger or operational instrument touch icon or text on the touch screen, can be achieved with to electronics The operation of equipment.It, can be as shown in Figure 1 described when needing to input character, text etc. in the course of work of electronic equipment Screen display dummy keyboard is touched, the keyboard pattern of the dummy keyboard can be similar to the keyboard pattern of physical keyboard.When the void When some character zone in the keyboard pattern of quasi- keyboard is touched, the character on the touch area is just had input.
In order to realize that the display and touch sensible, the touch screen typically comprise display module and touch sensible mould Block, as shown in Figure 1.The display module in touch screen for being shown, the touch sensible module is for sensing the touching The touch operation (such as input operation) on screen is touched, so that electronic equipment can respond to realize people the touch operation Machine interaction.The touch screen for example can be resistive touch screen, capacitive touch screen, infrared-type touch screen and surface acoustic wave Formula touch screen, optical touch screen etc..Display technology used by touch screen and touch sensible technology, which are not constituted, implements the application The limitation of example.
The display area that display module in Fig. 1 is shown can take up the presumptive area of the touch screen, and should Display area can be equal to the zone of action that the touch sensible module senses touch.It the display area can also be not equal to described The zone of action, such as the display area can be greater than the zone of action.
In the use process of electronic equipment, user can be according to the keyboard pattern of the dummy keyboard shown on the touchscreen The character zone on the keyboard pattern is touched, touch screen can sense the touch location of user, to judge that user is inputted Character.It is limited to issue the motor habit and ability of the user of input operation, in the use process of dummy keyboard, Ke Nengcun It is arrived the case where it wants the key neighbouring position tapped in practical tap of user, to generate the input of mistake.
Fig. 2 is to schematically illustrate the flow chart of the input method 200 for dummy keyboard according to the embodiment of the present application. The input method 200 can be applied to electronic equipment as shown in Figure 1, which includes touch screen, and the touch screen is at least Including display module and touch sensible module.
As shown in Fig. 2, the input method 200 can include: using display module in the touch screen display keyboard layout Case, each character of the keyboard pattern are respectively displayed on (S210) in the different display areas on the touch screen;According to predetermined The zone of action corresponding with the character of keyboard pattern respectively is arranged using the touch sensible module in rule, wherein at least one The zone of action of character is different from the display area (S220) of at least one character;It is defeated using the touch sensible module senses Enter the touch location (S230) of operation on the touchscreen;Using character corresponding with the zone of action where the touch location as defeated Enter character (S240).
In S210, using display module in the touch screen display keyboard pattern.For example, being opened on the touch screen Keyboard pattern is shown on the touchscreen when dynamic character input.The character of the keyboard pattern typically with each word in physical keyboard Symbol has similar distribution.As shown in Figure 1, the character of keyboard pattern may include letter, number, carriage return, space, punctuation mark Deng, and each character is respectively displayed in the different display areas on the touch screen.Between the display area of kinds of characters It is spaced apart.
Typically, the display area that each character occupies on the touchscreen is identical as the zone of action of the character.With alphabetical A For, box at the A in the keyboard pattern of Fig. 1 is its display area and its zone of action.When user want it is defeated When entering alphabetical A, input operation must touch its zone of action (i.e. display area).If input operation touches alphabetical A The zone of action and adjacent alphabetical S the zone of action, then alphabetical S may be determined as input character;If input operation touching The region between the edge and letter A and S of the zone of action of alphabetical A is touched, then may determine that the input operation is invalid.
It is corresponding with the character of keyboard pattern respectively using touch sensible module setting according to pre-defined rule in S220 The zone of action, wherein the zone of action of at least one character be different from least one character display area.Utilize this S220 setting keyboard pattern specific character the zone of action not conventionally with the display area of the specific character It is identical, but the zone of action of specific character deviates from its display area and different.By taking the specific character is letter A as an example, The zone of action of alphabetical A can be greater than its display area, and the zone of action of alphabetical A can also be relative to its display area to letter The direction of S deviates.Since the zone of action of alphabetical A is different from its display area, so even if input operation touches alphabetical A's The edge of display area, or input operation touch alphabetical A and letter S, input character can also be determined as alphabetical A.
Each zone of action corresponding with the character of keyboard pattern respectively can be set according to pre-defined rule.In practice, It is contemplated that motor habit of the input operation when inputting each character, user viewing angle characteristic etc. come be arranged respectively with key The corresponding each zone of action of the character of disk pattern.The setting of each zone of action is specifically described below in conjunction with Fig. 3-6.
In S230, the touch location of touch sensible module senses input operation on the touchscreen is utilized.It can adopt The touch sensible module is formed with various technologies to sense the touch location of input operation.For example, self-capacitance can be used Sensing mode inputs the touch location of operation to sense, and mode can also be sensed using mutual capacitance to sense the touch of input operation Position can also sense the touch location of input operation using resistance sensing mode.The touch of specific sensing input operation The mode of position does not constitute the limitation to the embodiment of the present application.
In self-capacitance sensing mode, felt using the charge storage capacity for the conductor itself for isolating setting in touch screen Survey touch location, in touch screen isolate setting conductor electric field be it is open, when have another conductor (such as finger) with When it is close, privately owned electric field is just established between two conductors, just there is opposite voltage, can detecte using the opposite voltage defeated Enter the touch location of operation.In mutual capacitance sensing mode, transverse electrode and longitudinal electrode, two arrays of electrodes are made in touch screen The place of intersection will will form capacitor, when finger touches touch screen, affect the coupling near touch point between two electrodes It closes, so that the capacitance between the two electrodes is changed, so as to determine input behaviour by the change for detecting the capacitance The touch location of work.In resistance-type sensing mode, the sensing of touch location is realized by pressure sensitive principle, when input is grasped When making contact touch screen, the two conductive layers of original mutually insulated just have a contact in touch point position, this can change The resistance value of the resistance of the resistive surface of touch screen, the resistance is related to position of the touch point in touch screen, so as to pass through The resistance value is detected to determine the touch location of input operation.
In S240, using character corresponding with the zone of action where the touch location as input character.In S220 Provided with each zone of action correspondingly of the character with keyboard pattern, the touch position of input operation has been determined in S230 It sets, may thereby determine that the touch location of input operation is located at the zone of action of which character, thus will be with the touch location The corresponding character in the zone of action at place is as input character.
In the case where ideal, each zone of action is independently of one another without weight correspondingly with the character of keyboard pattern Folded, input character can be uniquely determined in this way in S240.However, since the dynamic of input operation can be considered in S220 Work is accustomed to, each zone of action corresponding with the character of keyboard pattern respectively is arranged in the viewing angle characteristic of user etc., with keyboard layout The character of case may be partly overlapped between each zone of action correspondingly.When the touch location crosses over two characters When the zone of action, two words comprising two characters can be obtained from dictionary in the S240, according to user to described two The input character of a word selected to determine input operation.That is, assisting judgement input operation to input using dictionary Character, thus improve input operation validity and accuracy.
In the technical solution of the input method for dummy keyboard of the embodiment of the present application, by by keyboard pattern extremely The zone of action of a few character is configured differently than the display area of at least one character, thus in the touch of input operation When region deviates from the display area of character also can efficiently and accurately confirmation input character, improve user uses body It tests.
The mode of the setting zone of action in the input method 200 of Fig. 2 is described below with reference to Fig. 3 to Fig. 6.
Fig. 3 is the setting zone of action (S220) in the input method 200 for dummy keyboard for schematically illustrate Fig. 2 The first exemplary flow chart.As shown in figure 3, it is described according to pre-defined rule using the touch sensible module be arranged respectively with key The corresponding zone of action of the character of disk pattern can include: obtain the zone of action model of the character of the keyboard pattern, wherein should Zone of action model is to input information according to history to obtain, history input information include each character multiple input with Corresponding touch location (S221);The zone of action corresponding with each character respectively is set according to the zone of action model (S222)。
In S221, for example, can use the various algorithms or theory analysis characters history input information it is described to obtain The zone of action model of the character of keyboard pattern.It is operated for example, the multiple input for letter A can be first carried out in advance, record Touch area of the multiple input operation, obtains to alphabetical A recorded for statistical analysis to the touch area of alphabetical A Touch area probability distribution, using the probability distribution of the touch area of obtained letter A as the zone of action mould of letter A Type.Similar mode can be taken to obtain the zone of action model of other characters of keyboard pattern.Obtain the keyboard pattern The concrete mode of zone of action model of character do not constitute the limitation to the embodiment of the present application.
In S222, for specific character, such as the probability distribution of the touch area of specific character can be higher than predetermined The zone of action of the touch area of value as the specific character, to be provided with active region corresponding with the specific character respectively Domain.For the multiple input operation carried out in advance, can intensively be obtained by inputting operation experiments, or can be real When record it is each input operation and will record in real time input operation input information be used to obtain the zone of action mould Type.
Fig. 4 be schematically illustrate by Fig. 3 setting the zone of action in the way of set by keyboard pattern on effect Region.In Fig. 4, the zone of action of the sharp space symbol illustrated with dashed lines on keyboard pattern, letter A, letter S.Such as Fig. 4 institute Show, the zone of action of space symbol is greater than its display area, and especially in the lower section of the space symbol, this is, for example, because to sky The touch area of the input operation of lattice symbol is usually in the lower edge of shown space symbol;The zone of action of alphabetical A is greater than it Display area, especially on the right side of letter A, this is, for example, because letter A is in the left side of keyboard pattern and inputs operation It is more likely to the middle section of keyboard pattern;The zone of action of alphabetical S is greater than its display area, and the zone of action of letter S The left and right sides all exceed its display area, this be, for example, because letter S display area it is smaller cause input operation effect Region is inevitably overlapping with adjacent character.
During the zone of action of the character of setting keyboard pattern as shown in Figure 3, it is also contemplated that different use The different zones of action corresponding with the character of keyboard pattern are arranged in family or different types of electronic equipment.For example, in S221 When the zone of action model of the middle character for obtaining the keyboard pattern, available specific user is each to the keyboard pattern The zone of action model of character, that is to say, that distinguish different users and establish different zone of action moulds to different users Type;It, can basis when determining the zone of action corresponding with each character respectively according to the zone of action model in S222 The zone of action model of the specific user determines the active region corresponding with each character respectively suitable for the specific user Domain.By the way that the different zones of action corresponding with the character of keyboard pattern are arranged for different users, user can be improved Input operation validity and accuracy, to promote the usage experience of user.
In addition, wherein the size of the keyboard pattern shown may be different, correspondingly may be used for different electronic equipments The zone of action model of input operation can be influenced, so as to determine corresponding with specific character for different electronic equipments Different role region.This also contributes to improving the validity and accuracy of the input operation of user, to improve making for user With experience.
In the case where as shown in figure 4, the zone of action of kinds of characters may be overlapped, then touch location can be caused to cross over The zone of action of two characters.At this point it is possible to obtain two words comprising two characters from dictionary;According to user to described The input character of two words selected to determine input operation, to determine correctly input character using dictionary.
Alternatively, in S220, it is corresponding with the character respectively with keyboard pattern to be arranged to take other modes The zone of action.Fig. 5 is the setting zone of action in the input method 200 for dummy keyboard for schematically illustrate Fig. 2 Second exemplary flow chart.
As shown in figure 5, described, according to pre-defined rule setting, the zone of action (S220) corresponding with each character can be wrapped respectively It includes: during the finger of user issues input operation, it is hanging when close to the touch screen to sense the finger Position (S510);The extended line and the touch screen of the finger are calculated according to the overhead positions and the touch location Intersection point (S520);It is arranged and the intersection point word by the way that the intersection point character that will be shown on the intersection point is corresponding with the touch location Accord with the corresponding zone of action (S530).
Fig. 6 is the active region schematically illustrated on the keyboard pattern set by the mode of the setting zone of action of Fig. 5 Domain.As an example, the touch screen can be capacitive touch screen, and the touch sensible module may include self-capacitance sense Survey unit and mutual capacitance sensing unit.
In the S510, it can use the self-capacitance sensing unit and sense the finger when close to the touch screen Overhead positions.As shown in fig. 6, calculating finger when the finger of user enters the sensing range of self-capacitance sensing unit falls into institute The initial position (i.e. overhead positions) of the sensing range is stated, even if according to the level sensing of the self-capacitance sensing unit overhead positions Height, therefore can know the three-dimensional coordinate (x1, y1, z1) of the overhead positions, the height including it relative to touch screen Z1 and its two-dimensional coordinate projected in touch screen (x1, y1).In the S230, have calculated that finger in the touch Touch location (x2, y2) on screen, the touch location can use mutual capacitance sensing unit for example to sense.
In S520, calculated according to the overhead positions and the touch location finger extended line and the touching Touch the intersection point of screen.For example, can be come according to the following formula according to the overhead positions (x1, y1, z1) and touch location (x2, y2) first (1) angle α of finger and touch screen is calculated:
α=arctan (z1/L(x1,y1)(x2,y2)) formula (1)
Wherein, L(x1,y1)(x2,y2)It is the distance between point (x1, y1) and (x2, the y2) on touch screen.Mould based on finger Type can know that the thickness of finger, the extended line of finger are the line that the thickness medium line of finger extends along finger.It can basis The angle and touch location (x2, y2) of finger thickness, finger and touch screen come calculate the extended line of the finger with it is described The intersection point of touch screen.The intersection point is usually the touch point judged from the visual angle of user, i.e., correct touch location.Therefore, exist It is arranged and the intersection point character pair in S530 by the way that the intersection point character that will be shown on the intersection point is corresponding with the touch location The zone of action answered.
In Fig. 6, set the zone of action of the intersection point character (for example, character 2) to include finger practical touch Position (for example, display area of character 1).That is, the zone of action of character 2 is different from its display area, but at least It include the part display area of character 1.In this way, although the actual touch position of input operation is located at the display area of character 1 On, but input character is accurately determined by way of the zone of action of the setting character of Fig. 5, i.e. finger lengthening line and touching Touch the intersection point character (i.e. character 2) shown on the intersection point of screen.That is, by by the zone of action of the character 2 of keyboard pattern It is configured differently than the display area of the character 2, also can when the touch area of input operation deviates from the display area of character Enough confirmations correctly input character, improve the usage experience of user.
In Fig. 5, the extended line of the finger and the friendship of the touch screen are calculated using overhead positions and contact position Point.Alternatively, it can also determine that finger is directed toward using the video camera in electronic equipment, and always determine hand using the Fingers Refer to the intersection point of extended line and touch screen.
