The embodiment of the application provides a display screen control method, which can be applied to the electronic equipment, wherein:

reference herein to "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment of the application. The appearances of the phrase in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, nor are separate or alternative embodiments mutually exclusive of other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by one skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

The electronic device in this embodiment of the application may include a Smart Phone (Smart Phone), or a portable Computer with a wireless communication module, for example, a Tablet Computer (Tablet Computer), a notebook Computer (Laptop), or the like, and may also be a wearable and handheld Computer, such as a Smart wearable device (Smart weber), a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), or the like, which is not limited herein.

When the method is applied to the electronic device, wherein the display screen control method may be run in an operating system of the electronic device, and may include but is not limited to a Windows operating system, a Mac OS operating system, an Android operating system, an IOS operating system, a Linux operating system, an Ubuntu operating system, a Windows Phone operating system, and the like, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. The embodiment of the application provides a display screen control method, electronic equipment and a storage medium. The details will be described below separately.

As shown in fig. 3, the display screen control method may include the steps of:

101. when the display screen is in a preset working state, monitoring an updating instruction of preset display content, wherein the preset working state comprises displaying the preset display content.

The update instruction can be used for updating and indicating the content displayed on the display screen. In some embodiments, the monitoring for update instructions may be determined by monitoring for update instructions issued by the processor.

For example, when the preset display content of the electronic device is "a", when an update instruction sent by the processor is monitored and the update instruction is used for indicating that "B" will be displayed at the next moment, it can be known that the display screen is about to update the displayed content.

In some embodiments, the preset operating state includes displaying preset display content. Such as a screen saver in standby mode, clock information, unread message prompts, or other text, graphics, etc. The preset display content is displayed in a certain area of the display screen, or is displayed in a certain state, such as a standby state.

In some embodiments, the preset operating state may be in a lock screen state.

For example, in the screen locking state, the preset working state of the display screen is an aod (always On display) display state, and the state can display contents such as characters, numbers or patterns in a black background of the display screen for a long time, so as to prompt some commonly used information, such as current time, messages, etc., to the user through the normally bright contents. It is understood that the specific display content and the display manner may be determined according to actual situations, and the present application is not limited herein.

102. And if the updating instruction is monitored, acquiring a distance value detected by the distance sensor, wherein the distance value is the distance between the display screen and an external object.

In some embodiments, if the update command is monitored, the electronic device may start the distance sensor, and obtain the distance value detected by the distance sensor through the distance sensor. The distance value is the distance between the display screen and an external object (such as the face, the hands and the like of a user).

During the working process of the distance sensor, infrared signals can be emitted to the outside, and the infrared signals can penetrate through the display screen to reach the outside. In some embodiments, to avoid generating errors, a dark color picture (for example, dark red, brown, or black, etc.) may be displayed in the area of the display screen where the distance sensor passes through in the infrared signal emission direction of the distance sensor, so as to reduce the display brightness of the infrared signal emission area in the display screen, thereby avoiding the distance sensor from receiving excessive light interference. It will be appreciated that instead of displaying a dark picture in the particular display area, a dark picture may be displayed in the entire area of the display.

In the working process of the distance sensor, the electronic equipment can acquire the distance values detected by the distance sensor for multiple times, calculate the average value of the acquired distance values for multiple times, and determine the calculated average value as the distance between the display screen and an external object.

It is understood that obtaining the distance values detected by the distance sensor and calculating the average value a plurality of times may reduce errors in the detection process of the distance sensor.

103. And determining the distance state between the display screen and the external object according to the distance value, wherein the distance state comprises a close state and a far state.

After the electronic device acquires the distance value detected by the distance sensor, the distance state between the display screen and an external object (such as the face and the hands of a user) can be determined according to the distance value. The distance state includes an approaching state and a departing state.

The approach state indicates that the distance between the external object and the display screen is very short, the light at the display screen is affected by the external object, and the distance sensor is in a state of being shielded by the external object at the moment. For example, when the user's face is close to the display screen or the electronic device is placed in the user's pocket, the object may block the display screen, and the distance sensor may also be blocked.

The far-away state shows that the distance between the external object and the display screen is far, the light at the display screen cannot be influenced by the external object, and at the moment, the distance sensor is not shielded by the external object.

Of course, the closer or farther is a relative value, and for example, a threshold (e.g., 3cm) is used for determining, and the closer is determined if the distance between the electronic device and the external object is smaller than the threshold, and the farther is determined if the distance is larger than the threshold. It is understood that the specific values can be set according to actual conditions.

104. And controlling the detection state of the display screen to the touch instruction according to the distance state, wherein the detection state comprises an opening state or a closing state.

The display screen has a touch detection function, and a gesture instruction input by a user can be acquired by acquiring a touch signal of the user on the display screen.

In some embodiments, the display screen can still detect the touch command when the display screen is in the preset working state. For example, in an AOD display state, some electronic devices may obtain a gesture instruction specific to a user through a touch detection function that remains working, and then execute an action corresponding to the specific gesture instruction in a screen lock state, such as an action of opening a camera.

It can be understood that, in order to detect a gesture instruction, the display screen needs to always start a detection function of the gesture instruction, and perform matching work such as touch signal matching on the detected user gesture to determine whether the gesture instruction is a preset gesture instruction. Therefore, if the gesture command is detected continuously in a specific scene, unnecessary power consumption is increased.

In some embodiments, controlling the detection state of the display screen for the touch instruction according to the distance state may include:

when the distance state is the approaching state, controlling the display screen to set the detection state of the touch instruction to be a closing state;

and when the distance state is the far state, controlling the display screen to set the detection state of the touch instruction to be an opening state.

When the electronic device is in a preset working state, for example, a screen locking state, the distance state between the electronic device and an external object is acquired through the distance sensor in the state.

In some embodiments, when the distance state is the close state, it indicates that the distance between the external object (e.g., the face of the user, trousers in a pocket) and the electronic device is a short distance, and the external object may frequently touch the display screen at this time, so that the display screen triggers an action of receiving the gesture signal and performing matching. In order to avoid receiving too many false touches when the electronic device is in the screen locking state, the display screen may be controlled to set the detection state of the touch instruction to the off state.

When the distance state is the far state, it indicates that the distance between the external object (e.g., the face of the user, trousers in a pocket) and the electronic device is far, and at this time, the external object may not touch the display screen at will, and the display screen may be directly controlled to set the detection state of the touch instruction to the on state, so as to receive and determine the touch instruction of the user at any time.

It can be understood that if the distance state is the far state, and the detection state of the touch screen is turned on at this time, the on state is continuously maintained.

In some embodiments, the detection state of the touch instruction by the display screen can be controlled according to the state determination condition of the distance sensor for multiple times, so that the control accuracy is further improved.

Specifically, if the distance states detected by the distance sensors for a plurality of times are all the far states, the display screen can be directly controlled to set the detection state of the touch instruction to be the on state;

alternatively, if the distance states detected by the distance sensor are both in the proximity state a plurality of consecutive times, the display screen may be directly controlled to set the detection state of the touch command to the off state.

With reference to fig. 4, an application scenario of the display screen control method provided in the embodiment of the present application is shown in the figure.

In this scenario, an electronic device 100 is included, the electronic device 100 comprising a display screen 11 and a distance sensor 60, the distance sensor 60 being arranged below the display screen.

Wherein, the display screen 11 displays preset display content 70- "afternoon, 2: 18". When the electronic device receives an update instruction of the displayed preset display content, if the display of "2: 19 pm" is required, the distance sensor 60 is turned on to detect the current distance between the electronic device and the external object at the time.

At this time, if it is determined that the distance state between the display screen 11 and the external object is the close state according to the current distance, in order to avoid that the display screen 11 continuously detects the touch instruction due to the object contact in the screen lock state, the detection state of the touch instruction may be set to the off state, so as to reduce the power consumption of the display screen 11.

If the distance state between the display screen 11 and the external object is determined to be the distant state according to the current distance, the detection state of the touch instruction can be set to be the on state, so that the touch instruction of the user can be received and judged at any time.

As can be seen from the above, in the display screen control method provided in the embodiment of the present application, when the display screen is in the preset working state, the update instruction of the preset display content is monitored, the distance value detected by the distance sensor is obtained after the update instruction is monitored, and the detection state of the display screen on the touch instruction is controlled according to the distance state determined by the distance value. The embodiment of the application can avoid the problem that when the display screen is in the preset working state, the display screen is shielded by an object or is still frequently detected with a gesture instruction under the condition of pressure touch, so that the power consumption of the display screen in the preset working state is reduced, and the cruising ability of the electronic equipment is improved.

Referring to fig. 5, a flowchart of another implementation of the display screen control method provided in the embodiment of the present application is shown.

The display screen control method comprises the following implementation steps:

201. and the display screen displays preset display contents in a preset area in the screen locking state.

The preset display content includes a screen saver in a standby state, clock information, an unread message prompt or other characters and patterns. The preset display content is displayed in a certain preset area of the display screen in the screen locking state.

In some embodiments, the distance sensor is disposed below a preset region of the display screen for displaying preset display contents.

202. And monitoring an updating instruction of the preset display content.

The update instruction can be used for updating and indicating the content displayed on the display screen.

In some embodiments, the monitoring for update instructions may be determined by monitoring for update instructions issued by the processor.

203. And if the updating instruction is monitored, closing the display screen to display the preset display content.

In some embodiments, the display of the preset display content by the display screen is turned off, which may be by interrupting a display action (physical interruption or software interruption) or by turning off the display of the preset display content by inserting a black frame picture.

In some embodiments, only the display area where the preset display content is located may be controlled to be turned off, so that the pixels for displaying the preset display content are turned off, and the interference to the distance sensor is reduced.

204. And acquiring a distance value detected by the distance sensor after the display is closed.

In some embodiments, since the distance sensor is disposed below the display area for displaying the preset display content, if the preset display content is being displayed, the light of the preset display content may affect the infrared signal of the distance sensor, so that the distance value detected by the infrared signal is not accurate enough.

Therefore, if the updating instruction is monitored and the display screen is turned off, the detected distance value is acquired through the distance sensor after the display screen is in a black screen state. At the moment, the display screen is in a dark screen state or a screen-off state, the influence on the distance sensor is small, and the detection accuracy of the distance sensor can be effectively ensured.

205. And determining the distance state between the display screen and the external object according to the distance value, wherein the distance state comprises a close state and a far state.

206. And controlling the detection state of the display screen on the touch instruction according to the distance state, wherein the detection state comprises an opening state or a closing state.

With reference to fig. 6 to 7, in this scenario, an electronic device 100 is included, where the electronic device 100 includes a display screen 11 and a distance sensor 60, the distance sensor 60 is disposed below the display screen, and the distance sensor 60 is disposed below a preset area 701.

Wherein, the display screen 11 displays preset display content 70- "afternoon, 2: 18". After the electronic device receives an update instruction of the displayed preset display content, the display of the preset display content 70 by the preset area 701 is closed, and by closing the display of the preset display content 70, the situation that the accuracy of data acquisition of the distance sensor 60 is affected due to light or light transmittance in the process of displaying the preset display content can be reduced as much as possible.

At this time, the distance sensor 60 can be triggered to be turned on (black filling indicates that the distance sensor 60 is turned on), and the distance between the electronic device and the external object is obtained through the distance sensor in the state that the display screen is in the black screen, and because the preset region 701 is in the state of turning off the display, the distance sensor 60 can transmit the infrared signal to the outside through the preset region, and the receiving process of the infrared reflection signal is less prone to interference.

When the distance sensor 60 finishes acquiring the distance value and reaches the display update timing sequence indicated by the update instruction, the distance sensor 60 may be turned off and the content to be displayed corresponding to the update instruction is displayed, as shown in "2:19 pm" in fig. 7. Thus, the whole distance value acquisition process is completed. Of course, the updating process of the display may be completed in a short time, for example, in one or several frames, so that the human eye is not easily aware of the update.

By the above, after the update instruction is received, the display of the preset display content by the display screen is closed, the distance value detected by the distance sensor after the display is closed is obtained, the interference of light generated in the display process to the distance sensor can be reduced, and the distance value detection process of the distance sensor is more accurate.

Referring to fig. 8, a structure of a display screen control device according to an embodiment of the present application is shown.

The display screen control device is applied to an electronic device, the electronic device includes a display screen and a distance sensor, the display screen includes a display area, the distance sensor is arranged below the display area of the display screen, the display screen control method device includes an instruction monitoring module 401, a distance obtaining module 402, a state determining module 403 and a control module 404, wherein:

the instruction monitoring module 401 is configured to monitor an update instruction of preset display content when the display screen is in a preset working state, where the preset working state includes that the display screen displays the preset display content.

In some embodiments, the preset operating state includes displaying preset display content.

In some embodiments, the preset operating state may be in a lock screen state.

A distance obtaining module 402, configured to obtain a distance value detected by the distance sensor if the update instruction is monitored, where the distance value is a distance between the display screen and an external object;

A state determining module 403, configured to determine a distance state between the display screen and an external object according to the distance value, where the distance state includes a close state and a far state;

And the control module 404 is configured to control a detection state of the display screen for the touch instruction according to the distance state.

Therefore, the display screen control device provided by the embodiment of the application monitors the update instruction of the preset display content when the display screen is in the preset working state, acquires the distance value detected by the distance sensor after monitoring the update instruction, and controls the detection state of the display screen on the touch instruction according to the distance state determined by the distance value. The embodiment of the application can avoid the problem that when the display screen is in the preset working state, the display screen is shielded by an object or is still frequently detected with a gesture instruction under the condition of pressure touch, so that the power consumption of the display screen in the preset working state is reduced, and the cruising ability of the electronic equipment is improved.

Referring to fig. 9, a structure of a distance obtaining module 402 provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown. The structure includes a closing sub-module 4021 and an obtaining sub-module 4022, wherein:

the closing sub-module 4021 is configured to close the display of the preset display content by the display screen if the update instruction is monitored.

The obtaining sub-module 4022 is configured to obtain a distance value detected by the distance sensor after the display is turned off.

Referring to fig. 10, a structure of a control module 404 provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown. The control module 404 includes a first control sub-module 4041 and a second control sub-module 4042. Wherein:

the first control sub-module 4041 is configured to control the display screen to set the detection state of the touch instruction to an off state when the distance state is the proximity state.

The second control sub-module 4042 is configured to control the display screen to set the detection state of the touch instruction to an on state when the distance state is the distant state.
