In addition, touch apparatus 110 includes concave shape, and its depth is arranged to from exterior section to center Part gradually increases or keeps uniform.That is, touch apparatus 110, which may be arranged so that, does not include protrusion surface.When touch is set When including protrusion surface for 110, the track of gesture and the curature variation of touch-surface can be drawn naturally due to user, thus it is accurate True touch input may become difficult.The touch apparatus 110 shown in Fig. 1 may be arranged so that its depth heart C1 wherein Place is maximum, and its curvature gradually decreases to predetermined curvature from exterior section to center C1.
Meanwhile, protrusion surface may not be to refer to the salient point in regional area, but can refer to the whole of touch apparatus 110 and touch Touch the convex domain in region.Therefore, it can be included being formed by compression moulding according to the touch apparatus 110 of disclosure embodiment Projection at its center so that user can be by feeling kick, with the concentric circles protruded from touch apparatus 110 Thin fold etc. directly feels the position of core.
Alternatively, the curved surface of touch apparatus 110 could be arranged to different curvature.For example, touch apparatus 110 can include recessed curved surface shape, and its gradient is gradually reduced close to the center portion thereof point.That is, touch apparatus 110 can be with It is arranged so that the curvature small (meaning that radius of curvature is big) close to the region of core and the region away from core Curvature, i.e. the curvature of exterior section is big (meaning that radius of curvature is small).By this way, when the central part of touch apparatus 110 When the curvature divided is less than the curvature of its exterior section, readily available indicator inputs gesture on core.Due to outside Partial curvature is more than the curvature of core, therefore user touches exterior section to detect its curvature, even and if therefore working as User, which not look at touch apparatus 110, can also readily recognize the position of core.
In the touch input device 100 according to disclosure first embodiment, touch apparatus 110 can include recessed Curved surface, and the touch perception sensation of operation (or) that user feels when therefore inputting gesture can strengthen.Touch The curved surface of equipment 110 can be arranged to perform operation with people (such as, moves him or she when his or her wrist is fixed Finger or wrist is rotated or is twisted when finger extends) when the track that is drawn by the movement of finger tip it is similar.
As embodiment of the present disclosure, compared with being generally flat touch apparatus, include the touch of recessed curved surface Equipment 110 can more meet ergonomics.That is, except the fatigue as caused by with wrist etc. can be reduced, user touches and grasped The sensation of work can be improved.Compared with the situation of gesture is inputted on flat touch apparatus, input accuracy can be obtained Improve.
In addition, touch apparatus 110 can be arranged to circle.When touch apparatus 110 is arranged to circle, easily formed recessed Curved surface.When touch apparatus 110 is provided in round, because user can detect touch apparatus 110 by touch perception Circular touch region, therefore user can input circular gesture operation, such as, roll or rotate.
In addition, when touch apparatus 110 is arranged to recessed curved surface, user can intuitively know that finger exists The location of in touch apparatus 110.When touch apparatus 110 is arranged to curved surface, gradient is in touch apparatus 110 Any point relative changes.Therefore, the inclined sensation that user can be felt by finger intuitively knows that finger is set in touch The location of in standby 110.
When user is by his or her eye gaze to position in addition to touch apparatus 110, user is in touch apparatus 110 During upper input gesture, above characteristic can provide the feedback for the position that finger is placed in touch apparatus 110 and help to use Gesture is expected in family input, and therefore the input accuracy of gesture can be improved.For example, when user feels to be conveyed to touching for finger Touch equipment 110 gradient it is flat when, user can intuitively know that he or she is just touching the core of touch apparatus 110, and And user can intuitively know to be placed from finger by sensing the direction of the gradient for the touch apparatus 110 for conveying to finger Core any direction.
Meanwhile, in the range of ergonomic designs, it may be determined that the diameter and depth of touch apparatus 110.For example, can be with The diameter of touch apparatus 110 is selected in the range of 50mm to 80mm.In view of the average length for finger of growing up, finger is once The scope of removable (only finger natural mobile when wrist is fixed) can be selected in 80mm.In the straight of touch apparatus 110 In the case that footpath is more than 80mm, when edge of the user along touch apparatus 110 draws circle, the movement of hand become it is unnatural simultaneously And wrist uses more than needs.
On the other hand, when the diameter of touch apparatus 110 is less than 50mm, the area of touch area reduces, and therefore may be used The diversity of the gesture of input can be reduced.In addition, when drawing gesture in narrow region, causing gesture input error rate to carry It is high.
In addition, when touch apparatus 110 sets globulate, being drawn by using the depth of its diameter divided by touch apparatus 110 Value can be selected from 0.04 to 0.1 scope.The value drawn by using the diameter of touch apparatus divided by the depth of touch apparatus 110 It is the degree for representing curved surface bending.That is, in the touch apparatus 110 with identical diameter, with its diameter divided by The value increase that depth is drawn, touch apparatus 110 has more recessed shape, on the other hand, obtained with its diameter divided by depth The value gone out reduces, and touch apparatus 110 has more flat shape.
When the value drawn with the diameter of touch apparatus divided by the depth of touch apparatus 110 is more than 0.1, the song of concave shape Rate increases, and the therefore touch perception reduction of user.The curvature of touch apparatus 110 preferably matches the finger of user naturally The bent curvature of a curve that finger tip is drawn when mobile.On the other hand, when the value drawn with its diameter divided by depth be more than 0.1 when, when with Family along touch apparatus 110 move finger when, user can feel unnatural operation feeling.When user is unconscious and naturally During mobile finger, touch apparatus 110 can be separated with finger tip.In this case, the touch of gesture disconnects, and therefore may Generation recognizes mistake.
On the other hand, when the value drawn with the diameter of touch apparatus divided by the depth of touch apparatus 110 is more than 0.04, with Situation for drawing gesture on flat touch apparatus is compared, and user is likely difficult to feel the difference of operation feeling.
Meanwhile, the touch pad that the touch apparatus 110 with curved surface is used can use optical method to detect touch.Example Such as, infrared light emitting diode (IR LED) and photodiode array can be arranged on the rear surface of touch apparatus 110.IR LED and photodiode can obtain the infrared image reflected by finger, and controller can be touched from the image zooming-out obtained Point.
Fig. 4 is the view for showing the finger trace when user's in the vertical direction inputs gesture, and Fig. 5 is to show The view of finger trace when user inputs gesture in the horizontal direction.
As shown in figures 4 and 5, it can be included according to the touch apparatus 110 of disclosure embodiment recessed curved Curved surface.In this case, the curvature of touch apparatus 110 can be determined to be so that user feels easypro when user inputs gesture It is suitable.With reference to Fig. 4, when user's in the vertical direction moves finger, the pass in addition to finger is moved or is not bent in user In the state of section, user only can input gesture by the natural activity of finger.In the same fashion, with reference to Fig. 5, when user is in water When square moving up finger, in user does not reverse the state of wrist excessively, user can only pass through finger and wrist is natural Activity inputs gesture.Therefore, because the shape of touch apparatus 110 is ergonomic designs, when being used for a long time, The fatigue of user can reduce, and can prevent the generable bone disorders in wrist or other joints.
Core can be included and with different gradient or curvature according to the touch apparatus 110 of disclosure embodiment Exterior section.When touch apparatus 110 is set to flat or inclined surface, touch apparatus 110 has gradient, and And when touch apparatus 110 is set to curved surface, touch apparatus 110 has curvature.Hereinafter, in figure 6 and figure 7 Show different variant embodiments.
