More or fewer components may alternatively be implemented. Elements of the mobile terminal will be described in detail below.

The wireless communication unit 110 typically includes one or more components that allow radio communication between the mobile terminal 100 and a wireless communication system or network. For example, the wireless communication unit may include at least one of a broadcast receiving module 111, a mobile communication module 112, a wireless internet module 113, a short-range communication module 114, and a location information module 115.

The broadcast receiving module 111 receives a broadcast signal and/or broadcast associated information from an external broadcast management server via a broadcast channel. The broadcast channel may include a satellite channel and/or a terrestrial channelA face channel. The broadcast management server may be a server that generates and transmits a broadcast signal and/or broadcast associated information or a server that receives a previously generated broadcast signal and/or broadcast associated information and transmits it to a terminal. The broadcast signal may include a TV broadcast signal, a radio broadcast signal, a data broadcast signal, and the like. Also, the broadcast signal may further include a broadcast signal combined with a TV or radio broadcast signal. The broadcast associated information may also be provided via a mobile communication network, and in this case, the broadcast associated information may be received by the mobile communication module 112. The broadcast signal may exist in various forms, for example, it may exist in the form of an Electronic Program Guide (EPG) of Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB), an Electronic Service Guide (ESG) of digital video broadcasting-handheld (DVB-H), and the like. The broadcast receiving module 111 may receive a signal broadcast by using various types of broadcasting systems. In particular, the broadcast receiving module 111 may receive a broadcast signal by using a signal such as multimedia broadcasting-terrestrial (DMB-T), digital multimedia broadcasting-satellite (DMB-S), digital video broadcasting-handheld (DVB-H), forward link media (MediaFLO)^@) A digital broadcasting system of a terrestrial digital broadcasting integrated service (ISDB-T), etc. receives digital broadcasting. The broadcast receiving module 111 may be constructed to be suitable for various broadcasting systems that provide broadcast signals as well as the above-mentioned digital broadcasting systems. The broadcast signal and/or broadcast associated information received via the broadcast receiving module 111 may be stored in the memory 160 (or other type of storage medium).

The mobile communication module 112 transmits and/or receives radio signals to and/or from at least one of a base station (e.g., access point, node B, etc.), an external terminal, and a server. Such radio signals may include voice call signals, video call signals, or various types of data transmitted and/or received according to text and/or multimedia messages.

The wireless internet module 113 supports wireless internet access of the mobile terminal. The module may be internally or externally coupled to the terminal. The wireless internet access technology to which the module relates may include WLAN (wireless LAN) (Wi-Fi), Wibro (wireless broadband), Wimax (worldwide interoperability for microwave access), HSDPA (high speed downlink packet access), and the like.

The short-range communication module 114 is a module for supporting short-range communication. Some examples of short-range communication technologies include bluetooth^TMRadio Frequency Identification (RFID), infrared data association (IrDA), Ultra Wideband (UWB), zigbee^TMAnd so on.

The location information module 115 is a module for checking or acquiring location information of the mobile terminal. A typical example of the location information module is a GPS (global positioning system). According to the current technology, the GPS module 115 calculates distance information and accurate time information from three or more satellites and applies triangulation to the calculated information, thereby accurately calculating three-dimensional current location information according to longitude, latitude, and altitude. Currently, a method for calculating position and time information uses three satellites and corrects an error of the calculated position and time information by using another satellite. In addition, the GPS module 115 can calculate speed information by continuously calculating current position information in real time.

The a/V input unit 120 is used to receive an audio or video signal. The a/V input unit 120 may include a camera 121 and a microphone 122, and the camera 121 processes image data of still pictures or video obtained by an image capturing apparatus in a video capturing mode or an image capturing mode. The processed image frames may be displayed on the display unit 151. The image frames processed by the cameras 121 may be stored in the memory 160 (or other storage medium) or transmitted via the wireless communication unit 110, and two or more cameras 121 may be provided according to the construction of the mobile terminal. The microphone 122 may receive sounds (audio data) via the microphone in a phone call mode, a recording mode, a voice recognition mode, or the like, and can process such sounds into audio data. The processed audio (voice) data may be converted into a format output transmittable to a mobile communication base station via the mobile communication module 112 in case of a phone call mode. The microphone 122 may implement various types of noise cancellation (or suppression) algorithms to cancel (or suppress) noise or interference generated in the course of receiving and transmitting audio signals.

The user input unit 130 may generate key input data according to a command input by a user to control various operations of the mobile terminal. The user input unit 130 allows a user to input various types of information, and may include a keyboard, dome sheet, touch pad (e.g., a touch-sensitive member that detects changes in resistance, pressure, capacitance, and the like due to being touched), scroll wheel, joystick, and the like. In particular, when the touch pad is superimposed on the display unit 151 in the form of a layer, a touch screen may be formed.

The sensing unit 140 detects a current state of the mobile terminal 100 (e.g., an open or closed state of the mobile terminal 100), a position of the mobile terminal 100, presence or absence of contact (i.e., touch input) by a user with the mobile terminal 100, an orientation of the mobile terminal 100, acceleration or deceleration movement and direction of the mobile terminal 100, and the like, and generates a command or signal for controlling an operation of the mobile terminal 100. For example, when the mobile terminal 100 is implemented as a slide-type mobile phone, the sensing unit 140 may sense whether the slide-type phone is opened or closed. In addition, the sensing unit 140 can detect whether the power supply unit 190 supplies power or whether the interface unit 170 is coupled with an external device. The sensing unit 140 may include a proximity sensor 1410 as will be described below in connection with a touch screen.

The interface unit 170 serves as an interface through which at least one external device is connected to the mobile terminal 100. For example, the external device may include a wired or wireless headset port, an external power supply (or battery charger) port, a wired or wireless data port, a memory card port, a port for connecting a device having an identification module, an audio input/output (I/O) port, a video I/O port, an earphone port, and the like. The identification module may store various information for authenticating a user using the mobile terminal 100 and may include a User Identity Module (UIM), a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM), a Universal Subscriber Identity Module (USIM), and the like. In addition, a device having an identification module (hereinafter, referred to as an "identification device") may take the form of a smart card, and thus, the identification device may be connected with the mobile terminal 100 via a port or other connection means. The interface unit 170 may be used to receive input (e.g., data information, power, etc.) from an external device and transmit the received input to one or more elements within the mobile terminal 100 or may be used to transmit data between the mobile terminal and the external device.

In addition, when the mobile terminal 100 is connected with an external cradle, the interface unit 170 may serve as a path through which power is supplied from the cradle to the mobile terminal 100 or may serve as a path through which various command signals input from the cradle are transmitted to the mobile terminal. Various command signals or power input from the cradle may be used as signals for recognizing whether the mobile terminal is accurately mounted on the cradle. The output unit 150 is configured to provide output signals (e.g., audio signals, video signals, alarm signals, vibration signals, etc.) in a visual, audio, and/or tactile manner. The output unit 150 may include a display unit 151, an audio output module 152, an alarm unit 153, and the like.

The display unit 151 may display information processed in the mobile terminal 100. For example, when the mobile terminal 100 is in a phone call mode, the display unit 151 may display a User Interface (UI) or a Graphical User Interface (GUI) related to a call or other communication (e.g., text messaging, multimedia file downloading, etc.). When the mobile terminal 100 is in a video call mode or an image capturing mode, the display unit 151 may display a captured image and/or a received image, a UI or GUI showing a video or an image and related functions, and the like.

Meanwhile, when the display unit 151 and the touch pad are overlapped with each other in the form of a layer to form a touch screen, the display unit 151 may serve as an input device and an output device. The display unit 151 may include at least one of a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), a thin film transistor LCD (TFT-LCD), an Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) display, a flexible display, a three-dimensional (3D) display, and the like. Some of these displays may be configured to be transparent to allow a user to view from the outside, which may be referred to as transparent displays, and a typical transparent display may be, for example, a TOLED (transparent organic light emitting diode) display or the like. Depending on the particular desired implementation, the mobile terminal 100 may include two or more display units (or other display devices), for example, the mobile terminal may include an external display unit (not shown) and an internal display unit (not shown). The touch screen may be used to detect a touch input pressure as well as a touch input position and a touch input area.

The audio output module 152 may convert audio data received by the wireless communication unit 110 or stored in the memory 160 into an audio signal and output as sound when the mobile terminal is in a call signal reception mode, a call mode, a recording mode, a voice recognition mode, a broadcast reception mode, or the like. Also, the audio output module 152 may provide audio output related to a specific function performed by the mobile terminal 100 (e.g., a call signal reception sound, a message reception sound, etc.). The audio output module 152 may include a speaker, a buzzer, and the like.

The alarm unit 153 may provide an output to notify the mobile terminal 100 of the occurrence of an event. Typical events may include call reception, message reception, key signal input, touch input, and the like. In addition to audio or video output, the alarm unit 153 may provide output in different ways to notify the occurrence of an event. For example, the alarm unit 153 may provide an output in the form of vibration, and when a call, a message, or some other incoming communication (incomingmunication) is received, the alarm unit 153 may provide a tactile output (i.e., vibration) to inform the user thereof. By providing such a tactile output, the user can recognize the occurrence of various events even when the user's mobile phone is in the user's pocket. The alarm unit 153 may also provide an output notifying the occurrence of an event via the display unit 151 or the audio output module 152.

The memory 160 may store software programs and the like for processing and controlling operations performed by the controller 180, or may temporarily store data (e.g., a phonebook, messages, still images, videos, and the like) that has been or will be output. Also, the memory 160 may store data regarding various ways of vibration and audio signals output when a touch is applied to the touch screen.

The memory 160 may include at least one type of storage medium including a flash memory, a hard disk, a multimedia card, a card-type memory (e.g., SD or DX memory, etc.), a Random Access Memory (RAM), a Static Random Access Memory (SRAM), a read-only memory (ROM), an electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), a programmable read-only memory (PROM), a magnetic memory, a magnetic disk, an optical disk, and the like. Also, the mobile terminal 100 may cooperate with a network storage device that performs a storage function of the memory 160 through a network connection.

The controller 180 generally controls the overall operation of the mobile terminal. For example, the controller 180 performs control and processing related to voice calls, data communications, video calls, and the like. In addition, the controller 180 may include a multimedia module 1810 for reproducing (or playing back) multimedia data, and the multimedia module 1810 may be constructed within the controller 180 or may be constructed separately from the controller 180. The controller 180 may perform a pattern recognition process to recognize a handwriting input or a picture drawing input performed on the touch screen as a character or an image.

The power supply unit 190 receives external power or internal power and provides appropriate power required to operate various elements and components under the control of the controller 180.

The various embodiments described herein may be implemented in a computer-readable medium using, for example, computer software, hardware, or any combination thereof. For a hardware implementation, the embodiments described herein may be implemented using at least one of an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), a Digital Signal Processor (DSP), a Digital Signal Processing Device (DSPD), a Programmable Logic Device (PLD), a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), a processor, a controller, a microcontroller, a microprocessor, an electronic unit designed to perform the functions described herein, and in some cases, such embodiments may be implemented in the controller 180. For a software implementation, the implementation such as a process or a function may be implemented with a separate software module that allows performing at least one function or operation. The software codes may be implemented by software applications (or programs) written in any suitable programming language, which may be stored in the memory 160 and executed by the controller 180.

Up to this point, mobile terminals have been described in terms of their functionality. Hereinafter, a slide-type mobile terminal among various types of mobile terminals, such as a folder-type, bar-type, swing-type, slide-type mobile terminal, and the like, will be described as an example for the sake of brevity. Accordingly, the present invention can be applied to any type of mobile terminal, and is not limited to a slide type mobile terminal.

The mobile terminal 100 as shown in fig. 1 may be configured to operate with communication systems such as wired and wireless communication systems and satellite-based communication systems that transmit data via frames or packets.

A communication system in which a mobile terminal according to the present invention is operable will now be described with reference to fig. 2.

Such communication systems may use different air interfaces and/or physical layers. For example, the air interface used by the communication system includes, for example, Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA), Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), and Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) (in particular, Long Term Evolution (LTE)), global system for mobile communications (GSM), and the like. By way of non-limiting example, the following description relates to a CDMA communication system, but such teachings are equally applicable to other types of systems.

Referring to fig. 2, the CDMA wireless communication system may include a plurality of mobile terminals 100, a plurality of Base Stations (BSs) 270, Base Station Controllers (BSCs) 275, and a Mobile Switching Center (MSC) 280. The MSC280 is configured to interface with a Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) 290. The MSC280 is also configured to interface with a BSC275, which may be coupled to the base station 270 via a backhaul. The backhaul may be constructed according to any of several known interfaces including, for example, E1/T1, ATM, IP, PPP, frame Relay, HDSL, ADSL, or xDSL. It will be understood that a system as shown in fig. 2 may include multiple BSCs 2750.

Each BS270 may serve one or more sectors (or regions), each sector covered by a multi-directional antenna or an antenna pointing in a particular direction being radially distant from the BS 270. Alternatively, each partition may be covered by two or more antennas for diversity reception. Each BS270 may be configured to support multiple frequency allocations, with each frequency allocation having a particular frequency spectrum (e.g., 1.25MHz,5MHz, etc.).

The intersection of partitions with frequency allocations may be referred to as a CDMA channel. The BS270 may also be referred to as a Base Transceiver Subsystem (BTS) or other equivalent terminology. In such a case, the term "base station" may be used to generically refer to a single BSC275 and at least one BS 270. The base stations may also be referred to as "cells". Alternatively, each sector of a particular BS270 may be referred to as a plurality of cell sites.

As shown in fig. 2, a Broadcast Transmitter (BT)295 transmits a broadcast signal to the mobile terminal 100 operating within the system. A broadcast receiving module 111 as shown in fig. 1 is provided at the mobile terminal 100 to receive a broadcast signal transmitted by the BT 295. In fig. 2, several Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites 300 are shown. The satellite 300 assists in locating at least one of the plurality of mobile terminals 100.

In fig. 2, a plurality of satellites 300 are depicted, but it is understood that useful positioning information may be obtained with any number of satellites. The GPS module 115 as shown in fig. 1 is generally configured to cooperate with satellites 300 to obtain desired positioning information. Other techniques that can track the location of the mobile terminal may be used instead of or in addition to GPS tracking techniques. In addition, at least one GPS satellite 300 may selectively or additionally process satellite DMB transmission.

As a typical operation of the wireless communication system, the BS270 receives reverse link signals from various mobile terminals 100. The mobile terminal 100 is generally engaged in conversations, messaging, and other types of communications. Each reverse link signal received by a particular base station 270 is processed within the particular BS 270. The obtained data is forwarded to the associated BSC 275. The BSC provides call resource allocation and mobility management functions including coordination of soft handoff procedures between BSs 270. The BSCs 275 also route the received data to the MSC280, which provides additional routing services for interfacing with the PSTN 290. Similarly, the PSTN290 interfaces with the MSC280, the MSC interfaces with the BSCs 275, and the BSCs 275 accordingly control the BS270 to transmit forward link signals to the mobile terminal 100.

Based on the above mobile terminal hardware structure and communication system, various embodiments of the present invention are proposed.

The invention provides a frameless mobile terminal and an image display method thereof. Aiming at the scheme of forming the visual frameless frame by utilizing the arc-shaped edge of the glass cover plate, the edge part of the image to be displayed is pre-deformed, and then the pre-deformed image can be normally displayed after being refracted by the arc-shaped edge of the glass cover plate, so that the problem that the image edge is easy to deform after passing through the arc-shaped edge is solved.

Thus, the solution of the present invention for forming a visually frameless glass sheet with a curved edge is first described.

Fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention, which shows separate parts in the mobile terminal.

As shown in fig. 3 to 6, the mobile terminal includes: the transparent cover plate 1 (for example, a glass cover plate) is used for realizing device protection and touch control integration of the mobile terminal. And the display screen 2 is used for realizing a graphic display function. And the front shell 3 is used for assembling components of the whole machine and the like. And the rear shell 4 is used for protecting the components of the whole machine. And the mainboard 5 is used for realizing the functions of software and hardware of the smart phone. And a battery 6 for providing energy. And the data interface 7 is used for realizing the function of data transmission. And the loudspeaker 8 is used for realizing the sound production function of the whole machine. The dustproof lens 9 of the rear camera realizes the protective effect of the rear camera. And the front camera 10 realizes a photographing function. And the receiver 11 realizes the sound production function of the whole machine. And the rear camera 12 realizes the photographing function. Of course, it is understood that the mobile terminal may further include a backlight panel, a light blocking plate, etc., which are not illustrated in fig. 3.

Fig. 7 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the assembled mobile terminal of fig. 3. As shown in fig. 8, the light direction is schematically shown (indicated by an arrow). As shown in fig. 7 and 8, the rear case 4 has a receiving space for placing all components inside the mobile terminal, such as the main board 5, the battery 6, the data interface 7, the speaker 8, the front camera 10, the earpiece 11, the rear camera 12, and the photosensitive component (not shown), so as to form a rear case module. And the display screen 2 and the transparent cover plate 1 are sequentially stacked on the front case 3 to form a front case module. The front shell 3 is disposed at an opening of the accommodating space of the rear shell 4 of the mobile phone to seal the accommodating space, so that the front camera 10, the receiver 11, the photosensitive component and the like are located below the display screen 2.

The peripheral edge of the transparent cover plate 1 is a chamfer structure, and the chamfer can be an oblique chamfer, a round chamfer or a combination of the two. The transparent cover plate 1 comprises two parallel or nearly parallel edges, one of which is closer to the display screen 2 than the other. And one side far away from the display screen is bent to form an arc to continue to be close to the other side of the display screen, so that an arc side is formed, namely the upper surface of the transparent cover plate is bent from the edge position to the lower surface of the transparent cover plate to continue to form a chamfer.

In addition, the rear case 4 may include: the transparent cover plate comprises a back plate and side plates, wherein the back plate and the side plates are enclosed to form the accommodating space, the side plates form an opening of the accommodating space, and the upper surface of the transparent cover plate 1 is higher than the side plates.

Wherein, because display screen 2 is the printing opacity screen, when detecting the camera before starting, the steerable display screen of mobile terminal is out of work, or the display area that the lens part of camera corresponds before the control is out of work. At this time, the lens of the front camera 10 located below the display screen 2 sequentially penetrates through the through hole for exposing the lens part on the front shell 3, the transparent display screen 2 and the transparent cover plate 1 to capture an external image, so that the function of front-end shooting is realized;

further, a through hole, for example, two through holes, exposing the lens and the photosensitive component of the front camera 10 may be provided on the front housing 3 to expose the lens and the photosensitive component, respectively. When detecting the camera before starting, the steerable display screen of mobile terminal is out of work, or the display area that the camera lens part of control front camera corresponds or the display area that photosensitive assembly corresponds is out of work. At this time, the lens of the front camera 10 located below the display screen 2 sequentially penetrates through the through hole for exposing the lens portion on the front housing 3, the transparent display screen 2 and the transparent cover plate 1, and captures an external image, thereby realizing a function of front-end shooting. Similarly, the photosensitive component located below the display screen 2 passes through the through hole for exposing the photosensitive component, the transparent display screen 2 and the transparent cover plate 1 on the front shell 3, and senses external light, so that the light sensing function is realized.

Similarly, the earpiece 11 is also disposed below the display 2, and the opening of the earpiece 11 is disposed at the side of the mobile terminal, as shown in the figure, the front side, so that the earpiece 11 can achieve the listening effect by listening at the side.

In the mobile terminal according to the embodiment of the present invention, when displaying, a part of the light passing through the display screen 2 is emitted vertically along the transparent cover plate 1, and another part of the light is refracted along with the chamfer structure of the transparent cover plate 1 (as shown in fig. 8) and emitted from the arc edge. Due to the design of the chamfering structure, the display area is enlarged, and the frameless visual effect is achieved.

Since a part of the light is refracted from the chamfered structure of the transparent cover 1, an image corresponding to the part of the light is easily deformed when displayed.

In view of this, the embodiments of the present invention provide the following ways to solve the above-mentioned deformation problems.

As shown in fig. 9, which is a schematic structural diagram of a mobile terminal according to a first embodiment of the present invention, the mobile terminal has a frameless structure and is a visual frameless structure formed by chamfering an edge of a glass cover plate, and for this part, reference may be made to the foregoing description, which is not repeated herein. It should be noted that the frameless structure in the embodiment of the present invention refers to a structure without frames on two sides, a structure without frames on three sides, or a structure without frames on four sides.

As shown in fig. 9, the mobile terminal 900 includes: a receiving module 901, an extracting module 902, a pre-warping module 903 and a display control module 904.

The receiving module 901 is configured to receive an image switching instruction.

Wherein the image switching instruction is used for instructing to switch the image (i.e. picture) from the current image to another image. Generally, the more obvious the image deformation phenomenon of the screen edge is when the image is switched, so the embodiment of the invention particularly deals with the deformation problem in the image switching process. The user can trigger the mobile terminal to generate an image switching instruction through a page turning key (virtual or physical), a predetermined gesture and the like.

The extracting module 902 is configured to extract an image to be switched to according to the image switching instruction received by the receiving module 901.

The pre-deformation module 903 is configured to perform pre-deformation processing on the edge portion of the image extracted by the extraction module 902.

The portion to be subjected to the pre-distortion processing is a portion to be displayed by the chamfered edge of the glass cover plate, that is, a portion to be distorted when the partial image is displayed. Fig. 10 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of the pre-deformation module 903. It may include: a calculation unit 9031 and a pre-deformation unit 9032. The calculating unit 9031 is configured to calculate a deformation degree of the image, for example, to estimate a deformation condition of the image after the image is refracted by the edge of the glass cover plate according to the chamfering rate of the edge of the glass cover plate and the refractive index of the glass cover plate. The pre-deformation unit 9032 is configured to perform pre-deformation processing on the image according to the deformation degree calculated by the calculation unit 9031, where the pre-deformation processing may be, for example, performing pre-distortion on a pixel point of the image. In the embodiment of fig. 10, when displaying an image, a portion of the image that is deformed is pre-distorted, so that when actually displaying the image, the pre-distortion can be corrected by using the image deformation caused by the edge of the glass cover plate, thereby displaying a normal image.

The display control module 904 is configured to control the display screen to display the pre-deformed image output by the pre-deformation module 902. For example, the display control module 904 may output the image output by the pre-warping module 902 to a display screen for display.

Fig. 11 is a schematic structural diagram of a mobile terminal according to a second embodiment of the present invention. It includes: the display device comprises a receiving module 901, an extracting module 902, a pre-deforming module 903, a display control module 904, a detecting module 906 and an instruction generating module 907.

The detecting module 906 is configured to detect a slide gesture. Wherein the swipe gesture may be, for example, a left-to-right swipe gesture, or a right-to-left swipe gesture, or a top-to-bottom swipe gesture, or a bottom-to-top swipe gesture.

In particular, the swipe gesture may be, for example, a swipe gesture that swipes across a corner of the mobile terminal, such as in a clockwise direction across a corner of the mobile terminal, or in a counter-clockwise direction across a corner of the mobile terminal. For a borderless mobile terminal, a corner region (entity) and a gesture (virtual) are combined, so that convenient touch control can be provided for a user. Meanwhile, the corner area is combined with the touch gesture, for example, the corner area slides across the sliding track of the corner, so that false triggering is not easy to occur.

The instruction generating module 907 is configured to generate an image switching instruction when the detecting module 906 detects the slide gesture.

The portion to be subjected to the pre-distortion processing is a portion to be displayed by the chamfered edge of the glass cover plate, that is, a portion to be distorted when the partial image is displayed. The pre-deformation module 903 first calculates the degree of deformation of the image, for example, according to the above-mentioned chamfering rate of the edge of the glass cover and the refractive index of the glass cover, to estimate the deformation of the image caused by the refraction of the edge of the glass cover. And then, performing pre-deformation processing on the image according to the calculated deformation degree, wherein the pre-deformation processing can be, for example, pre-distorting pixel points of the image, and the distortion program is determined according to the calculated deformation degree.

The display control module 904 is configured to control the display screen to display the pre-deformed image output by the pre-deformation module 902.

In the embodiment, after the sliding gesture is detected, the switching of the image switching instruction is generated, so that the edge part of the image to be displayed is pre-deformed, the pre-deformed image can be normally displayed after being refracted by the edge of the glass cover plate, and the problem of deformation of the image displayed on the edge of the screen is solved.

Fig. 12 is a schematic structural diagram of a mobile terminal according to a third embodiment of the present invention. It includes: a receiving module 901, an extracting module 902, a pre-deforming module 903, a display control module 904, a judging module 908 and a control module 909.

The determining module 908 is configured to determine whether the display area of the image extracted by the extracting module 902 covers the edge of the display screen.

The control module 909 is configured to instruct the pre-deformation module 903 to perform pre-deformation processing when the determination module 908 determines that the display area of the image covers the edge of the display screen; and for instructing the display output module 904 to directly output the non-pre-distorted image when the determination module 908 determines that the display area of the image does not cover the edge of the display screen.

In some scenarios, the image is not displayed in the entire display screen, but only in a certain area, for example, only in the central area of the screen, so that when the display range of the image does not cover the edge of the display screen, the image does not need to be pre-deformed. Therefore, the embodiment enables or disables the pre-distortion module for a specific situation, so that the display quality of the image can be improved.

As shown in fig. 13, which is a schematic flow chart of a touch method of a mobile terminal according to a first embodiment of the present invention, the mobile terminal has a borderless structure and is a visual borderless structure formed by chamfering an edge of a glass cover, and for this part, reference may be made to the foregoing description, which is not repeated herein.

As shown in fig. 13, the touch method of the mobile terminal includes the following steps:

step 131: and receiving an image switching instruction.

Wherein the image switching instruction is used for instructing to switch the image (i.e. picture) from the current image to another image. Generally, the more obvious the image deformation phenomenon of the screen edge is when the image is switched, so the embodiment of the invention particularly aims at the deformation problem in the image process. The user can trigger the mobile terminal to generate an image switching instruction through a turn-over key (virtual or physical), a predetermined gesture and the like.

Step 132: the image to be switched to is extracted according to the image switching instruction received in step 131.

Step 133: the edge portion of the image extracted in step 132 is subjected to a pre-deformation process.

The pre-deformed portion is a portion to be displayed through the chamfered edge of the glass cover when the image is displayed, that is, a deformed portion. As shown in fig. 14, is a schematic flow chart of an embodiment of step 133. First, the deformation degree of the image is calculated (step 141), and the deformation degree caused by the image after being refracted by the edge of the glass cover plate is estimated according to the chamfering rate of the edge of the glass cover plate and the refractive index of the glass cover plate. Then, based on the calculated deformation degree, the image is pre-deformed (step 142), wherein the pre-deformation process may be, for example, pre-distorting pixels of the image.

Step 134: and controlling the display screen to display the image subjected to the pre-deformation processing.

Fig. 15 is a flowchart illustrating a touch method of a mobile terminal according to a second embodiment of the present invention. Which comprises the following steps:

step 151: a swipe gesture is detected. Wherein the swipe gesture may be, for example, a left-to-right swipe gesture, or a right-to-left swipe gesture, or a top-to-bottom swipe gesture, or a bottom-to-top swipe gesture.

In particular, the swipe gesture may be, for example, a swipe gesture that swipes across a corner of the mobile terminal, such as in a clockwise direction across a corner of the mobile terminal, or in a counter-clockwise direction across a corner of the mobile terminal. For a borderless mobile terminal, a corner region (entity) and a gesture (virtual) are combined, so that convenient touch control can be provided for a user. Meanwhile, the corner area is combined with the touch gesture, for example, the corner area slides through a sliding track of the corner, so that false triggering is not easy to occur in the corner area, and therefore the false triggering can be reduced.

Step 152: when the slide gesture is detected in step 151, an image switching instruction is generated.

Step 153: and receiving an image switching instruction.

Step 154: the image to be switched to is extracted according to the image switching instruction received in step 153.

Step 155: the edge portion of the image extracted in step 154 is pre-deformed.

Step 156: and controlling the display screen to display the image which is output in the step 155 and is subjected to the pre-deformation processing.

Fig. 16 is a flowchart illustrating a touch method of a mobile terminal according to a third embodiment of the present invention. Which comprises the following steps:

step 161: and receiving an image switching instruction.

Step 162: the image to be switched to is extracted according to the image switching instruction received in step 161.

Step 163: it is determined whether the display area of the image extracted in step 162 covers the edge of the display screen. If yes, go to step 164, otherwise go to step 165.

Step 164: a pre-deformation process is performed and then step 165 is performed.

Step 165: the display of the image is controlled.

In some scenarios, the image is not displayed in the whole display screen, but only in a certain area, so that when the display range of the image does not cover the edge of the display screen, the image pair is not refracted by the edge portion of the glass cover plate, and therefore, the image does not need to be pre-deformed.

Therefore, the embodiment enables or disables the pre-distortion module for a specific situation, so that the display quality of the image can be improved.

A detailed embodiment of the touch method of the mobile terminal according to the embodiment of the invention is described below with reference to fig. 17.

As shown in fig. 17, it is a schematic diagram of a display screen of a four-sided frameless mobile terminal. Since a four-sided frameless structure is involved, the edge portion of the display screen is prone to visually display distortion when displaying an image. As shown in fig. 17, a normal display area 171 and a distortion display area 170 exist in the display screen according to the display condition of the image seen by the user, and if no processing is performed on the displayed image, the image displayed in the distortion display area 170 is distorted when displayed. In this case, it generally appears more obviously when the image is switched, so when the mobile terminal according to the embodiment of the present invention detects a sliding operation, for example, when the sliding gesture 172 from left to right shown in fig. 17, the mobile terminal extracts the image to be switched to, and then according to the extracted image, divides the image into two parts, for example, a part displayed in the distorted display area 170 and a part displayed in the normal display area 171, for example, first determines an edge position of the image, and then determines a part of the image away from the edge position by a predetermined number of pixel points as a part corresponding to the distorted display area 170 in the image, and the rest are parts corresponding to the normal display area 171 in the image; for example, an image within 50 pixel points from the edge is determined as an image to be displayed in the distortion display area 170. Then, the pixels in the image to be displayed in the distortion display area 170 are pre-distorted by a predetermined distortion degree, for example, by a distortion degree of 30%, so that the image to be displayed in the distortion display area 170 is pre-distorted, whereas the image to be displayed in the normal display area 171 is not processed. Finally, an image is displayed, comprising: the image without the distortion processing is displayed in the normal display area 171, and the image after the pre-distortion processing is displayed in the distortion display area 170. It should be noted that the predetermined number of pixel points and the adopted distortion degree may be selected by an empirical rule, or obtained by analog simulation.
