Detailed Description

The display screen generally plays a role in a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, and a wearable electronic device to display contents such as text, pictures, icons, or videos. With the increasing requirements of users on the definition and the fineness of displayed contents, more mobile terminals adopt touch display screens with larger sizes to achieve the display effect of a full screen. However, in the process of setting a display screen with a larger size, it is found that functional devices such as a front camera, a proximity optical sensor, a projection component, and a receiver, which are arranged at the front end of the mobile terminal, affect the area that the touch display screen can extend to.

Generally, a mobile terminal includes a front panel, a rear cover, and a bezel. The front panel includes a forehead area, a middle screen area and a lower key area. Generally, the forehead area is provided with a sound outlet of a receiver and functional devices such as a front camera, the middle screen area is provided with a touch display screen, and the lower key area is provided with one to three physical keys. With the development of the technology, the lower key area is gradually cancelled, and the physical keys originally arranged in the lower key area are replaced by the virtual keys in the touch display screen.

And functional devices such as a receiver sound outlet hole and a front camera arranged in the forehead area are important for the functional support of the mobile phone and are not easy to cancel, so that the display area of the touch display screen is expanded to cover the forehead area with great difficulty. After a series of researches, the inventor finds that functional devices such as a projection component, a telephone receiver, a camera and a structured light component can be hidden and arranged inside a terminal main body of a mobile terminal or on the back of the terminal main body, and a sliding component or a rotating component is configured to be exposed from the top of the terminal main body, so that the original upper forehead area is expanded into a displayable area of a touch display screen, the area of the displayable area is increased, and the effect of a full-screen is achieved.

The terminal control method is used for improving the screen occupation ratio and the display effect of the mobile terminal by arranging the camera assembly in the terminal body, and controlling the camera to start according to the position change of the camera assembly and the foreground application program of the mobile terminal so as to improve the user experience. In a specific embodiment, the terminal control method is applied to the terminal control device 200 shown in fig. 12 and the mobile terminal 100 (fig. 14) configured with the terminal control device 200, and a specific flow of the embodiment will be described below by taking the mobile terminal as an example, but it is understood that the mobile terminal applied in the embodiment may be a smart phone, a tablet computer, a wearable electronic device, and the like, and is not limited specifically herein. As one mode, the mobile terminal includes a terminal body and a camera assembly disposed in the terminal body, and the camera assembly is movable relative to the terminal body and exposed from the terminal body. As will be described in detail with respect to the flow shown in fig. 7, the terminal control method may specifically include the following steps:

Alternatively, the terminal body may be determined as the reference object, and then whether the camera assembly is removed from the terminal body may be detected. It will be appreciated that the movement of the camera assembly relative to the terminal body includes at least one of sliding or rotating, i.e., the camera assembly may be removed from the terminal body by relative sliding or relative rotation.

Specifically, when the camera assembly is slidable relative to the terminal body, a distance sensor may be provided in advance at a position where the terminal body contacts the camera assembly, when a distance value between the terminal body and the camera assembly detected by the distance sensor changes, it is indicated that the camera assembly is sliding relative to the terminal body, when the distance value detected by the distance sensor increases, it is indicated that the camera is ascending toward the top of the terminal body, when the distance value detected by the distance sensor decreases, it is indicated that the camera is descending toward the top of the terminal body, so that it is possible to detect whether the camera assembly moves relative to the terminal body, and it is possible to detect whether the camera assembly moves out of the terminal body based on a specific measurement value of the distance sensor.

Further, when the camera assembly can rotate relative to the terminal body, an angle sensor can be arranged on the camera assembly in advance, when the change of the angle value between the terminal body and the camera assembly detected by the angle sensor is detected, the camera assembly is represented to rotate relative to the terminal body, when the angle value detected by the angle sensor is increased, the camera is represented to rotate towards the top of the terminal body, when the angle value detected by the angle sensor is decreased, the camera is represented to rotate back to the top of the terminal body, so that whether the camera assembly moves relative to the terminal body can be detected, and whether the camera assembly moves out of the terminal body can be detected according to the specific measurement value of the angle sensor.

Of course, in this embodiment, the movement of the camera assembly may be controlled manually by a user or controlled electrically by a mobile terminal, which is not limited herein.

Step S120: and when the camera assembly is moved out of the terminal body, judging whether the foreground of the mobile terminal runs an application program calling the camera assembly.

In this embodiment, when the camera assembly moves out of the terminal body, the foreground application of the mobile terminal is detected to determine whether the application calling the camera assembly is running on the foreground of the mobile terminal. Where invoking the camera assembly may include at least taking a picture, scanning, previewing, etc. As one mode, whether the application program calling the camera assembly is running in the foreground of the mobile terminal can be detected by detecting the current display interface of the mobile terminal, that is, when it is detected that the current display interface displays pictures such as photographing, scanning, previewing and the like, it is determined that the camera assembly is being called by the foreground application of the mobile terminal.

Step S130: and when the foreground of the mobile terminal does not call the application program of the camera assembly, starting the system camera application.

Further, when the foreground of the mobile terminal does not run the application program which is calling the camera assembly, it is characterized that the user only needs to acquire images through the system camera, and then the system camera application is directly started and the camera assembly is started, as shown in fig. 8, so as to increase the starting speed of the system camera.

As a mode, when the system camera application is started, first obtaining a state of the system camera application when the system camera application is previously exited, where the state of the system camera application when the system camera application was previously exited may be stored by the mobile terminal, and when the system camera application needs to be started next time, determining to start the front camera or start the rear camera based on the state when the system camera application was previously exited.

The first terminal control method provided by the embodiment of the application detects whether the camera assembly is moved out of the terminal body, when the camera assembly is moved out of the terminal body, whether the application program calling the camera assembly is running on the mobile terminal foreground is judged, when the application program calling the camera assembly is not on the mobile terminal foreground, the system camera application is started, the camera assembly is arranged inside the terminal body, the screen occupation ratio and the display effect of the mobile terminal are improved, the camera is controlled to be started according to the position change of the camera assembly and the foreground application program of the mobile terminal, and the user experience is improved.

Referring to fig. 9, fig. 9 is a schematic flowchart illustrating a second terminal control method according to an embodiment of the present application. As will be explained in detail with respect to the flow shown in fig. 9, the method may specifically include the following steps:

step S210: detecting whether the camera assembly moves relative to the terminal body.

Step S220: when the camera assembly moves relative to the terminal body, whether the camera assembly moves from an initial position to a preset position or not is judged.

As one mode, the mobile terminal presets and stores an initial position and a predetermined position, wherein the initial position is used as a criterion for a starting position, and the predetermined position is used as a criterion for an ending position. Specifically, when it is detected that the camera assembly moves relative to the terminal body, a start position and an end position of the movement of the camera assembly are further detected, the start position is compared with the initial position to determine whether the start position is the initial position, and the end position is compared with the predetermined position to determine whether the end position is the predetermined position, so that it can be determined whether the camera assembly moves from the initial position to the predetermined position.

In this embodiment, the initial position is not higher than the position where the camera assembly is exposed from the top of the terminal body, and the predetermined position is not lower than the position where the camera assembly is exposed from the top of the terminal body, that is, the camera assembly is hidden in the terminal body to be exposed from the top of the terminal body when the camera assembly moves from the initial position to the predetermined position.

Step S230: and when the camera assembly moves from the initial position to the preset position, judging whether the foreground of the mobile terminal runs an application program calling the camera assembly.

Referring to fig. 10, fig. 10 is a flowchart illustrating a step S230 of a second terminal control method according to an embodiment of the present application. As will be explained in detail with respect to the flow shown in fig. 10, the method may specifically include the following steps:

Whether the mobile terminal is in the screen locking state can be directly judged through a code or judged through a broadcast event, and the judgment is specifically as follows: and receiving a system broadcast event, when the screen state of the system is changed, the system can send a broadcast, and whether the mobile terminal is in a screen locking state can be acquired only by monitoring the broadcast.

Step S232: and when the mobile terminal is in a non-screen locking state, judging whether the foreground of the mobile terminal runs an application program calling the camera assembly.

When the mobile terminal is detected to be in a non-screen-locking state, namely when the mobile terminal is in a screen-off state but in a non-screen-locking state, a non-screen-off state and in a non-screen-locking state or a screen-opening state, whether an application program calling a camera assembly is running on a foreground of the mobile terminal is detected.

Step S233: and when the mobile terminal is in a screen locking state, starting the system camera and controlling the camera assembly to acquire face information.

In addition, when the mobile terminal is detected to be in the screen locking state, namely when the mobile terminal is in the screen unlocking state and the screen locking state or the screen unlocking state and the screen locking state, the screen of the mobile terminal is represented to be in the locked state, and the screen can be unlocked to enter the user interface of the mobile terminal only by performing identity verification. In this embodiment, the identity authentication may be performed through the face information, and therefore, as a mode, the system camera application is started and the camera assembly is controlled to acquire the face information, so as to determine whether the user corresponding to the face information is a real user.

Step S234: and matching the face information with preset face information.

As a mode, the mobile terminal is preset and stores preset face information, the preset face information is used as a judgment basis for face information collected by the camera assembly, and after the face information is obtained, the face information is matched with the preset face information to judge whether a user corresponding to the face information is a real user.

Step S235: and when the face information is not matched with the preset face information, starting a system security camera.

When the face information is not matched with the preset face information, the user corresponding to the face information is represented to be not a real user, at the moment, the mobile terminal starts the system security camera, it can be understood that the mobile terminal is not successfully unlocked, although the system security camera can collect images, the photo album cannot be accessed, and privacy of the real user can be protected.

Step S240: and when an application program calling the camera assembly runs in the foreground of the mobile terminal, indicating the application program to read the preview image acquired by the camera assembly.

In this embodiment, when an application program that is calling a camera assembly runs in the foreground of a mobile terminal, as a manner, the mobile terminal controls the camera assembly to collect a preview image and cache the collected preview image, and then sends a message to the application program to instruct the application program to read the preview image collected by the camera assembly from the cached image; alternatively, the mobile terminal sends a message to the application program instructing the application program to call the camera assembly to capture a preview image and to obtain the preview image captured by the camera assembly, so as to directly send the view to the application program for processing, as shown in fig. 11.

Step S250: and when the foreground of the mobile terminal does not run an application program calling the camera assembly, starting the system camera application.

The second terminal control method provided by the embodiment of the application detects whether the camera component moves relative to the terminal body, judging whether the camera assembly moves from the initial position to the preset position when the camera assembly moves relative to the terminal body, when the camera assembly moves from the initial position to the preset position, whether the foreground of the mobile terminal runs an application program calling the camera assembly or not is judged, when an application program calling the camera assembly is running in the foreground of the mobile terminal, the application program is instructed to read the preview image acquired by the camera assembly, when the foreground of the mobile terminal does not run the application program calling the camera assembly, the system camera application is started, the starting speed of the camera is improved by controlling different starting modes of the camera according to the application program running on the foreground of the mobile terminal, so that the user experience is improved.
