Namely, the processor or the terminal device can implement the content selection method provided by the embodiment of the invention by running the software program in the android operating system.

The terminal device in the embodiment of the invention can be a mobile terminal device and can also be a non-mobile terminal device. For example, the mobile terminal device may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a palm computer, a vehicle-mounted terminal device, a wearable device, an ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), a netbook or a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), and the like, and the non-mobile terminal device may be a Personal Computer (PC), a Television (TV), a teller machine or a self-service machine, and the like, and the embodiment of the present invention is not particularly limited.

The execution main body of the content selection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention may be the terminal device, or may also be a functional module and/or a functional entity capable of implementing the content selection method in the terminal device, and may be determined specifically according to actual use requirements, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention. The following takes a terminal device as an example to exemplarily describe the content selection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention.

In the embodiment of the present invention, in the case that the terminal device obtains more contents by using the OCR technology, the terminal device may display the obtained contents in pages, that is, display a part of the contents on each page, for example, display the first content of the whole contents (hereinafter referred to as the second content) on the current page. If the user wants to operate some contents, the user may first trigger the terminal device to select the second content or select the contents (hereinafter, referred to as third content) other than the first content in the second content through the first input, and then the user may perform specific operations on the selected contents, for example, share the second content with a friend of the user or translate the third content.

As shown in fig. 2, an embodiment of the present invention provides a content selection method. The method can be applied to terminal equipment. The method may include S101 and S102 described below.

S101, the terminal equipment receives a first input under the condition that the terminal equipment displays the first content.

The first content may be a part of the second content.

Optionally, in an implementation of the present invention, the second content may be all contents acquired after the target picture is identified.

Further, the target picture may be a picture taken by a camera of the terminal device, or a picture downloaded by the terminal device from a network side device (e.g., a server), or a picture obtained by the terminal device through a screen capture operation, etc. The method can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited.

Further, the second content may specifically be all text contents acquired after the target picture is identified. The entire text content may include characters, symbols, and the like.

Further, in the case that the second content is large, the terminal device may display the text content in pages, that is, display part of the text content in the second content on each page. For example, the terminal device may display the first content of the second content on a current page of the terminal device.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 3, after acquiring the target picture 01, the terminal device may perform scanning, zooming, rotating, layout, character recognition, and the like on the target picture 01 by using OCR technology, so that all text contents (i.e., second contents) in the target picture 01 may be acquired. Because the obtained total text content is more, the terminal device may display the text content in a pagination manner, for example, the terminal device may display the target picture 01, the first content 02 in the total text content, and the function controls 03 such as "translate", "copy", "share", and "delete" on the current page, where the first content 02 may be composed of a plurality of character blocks such as "nock", "bell", and the like. If the user wants to select some text contents from all text contents, the user can trigger the terminal device to select the text contents through a first input.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present invention, the first input may be a touch input, a voice input, a gesture input, or a gravity input. The method can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited.

The first input is exemplarily illustrated below by way of example in a first and a second manner:

mode one, the first input may be a sliding input of a finger or a palm of a user in one direction in the first area. The first area is an area where the first content is located in the screen of the terminal device.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 4 (a), the first region may include four vertices of a point a, a point B, a point C, and a point D. If the user slides the finger or palm in the direction from point a to point D in this first area, the terminal device may receive a slide input (first input) of the finger or palm of the user in the direction from point a to point D in the first area. As such, after receiving the first input by the user, the terminal device may select the first target content and display the prompt information "prompt information: all text content "04 has been selected.

It should be noted that the above embodiment is exemplified by the first input being a sliding input of a finger or a palm of a user in a direction from a point a to a point D in the first region, and does not limit the embodiment of the present invention in any way. It will be appreciated that the first input may also be a sliding input of a finger or palm of the user in any other possible direction in the first region. For example, still taking fig. 4 (a) as an example for illustration, the first input may also be a sliding input of a finger or a palm of the user in a direction from a point a to a point B in the first area, or the first input may also be a sliding input of a finger or a palm of the user in a direction from a point C to a point D in the first area, and the like, which may be determined according to actual usage requirements.

Mode two, the first input may be an input of a user's finger or palm in a second direction on the first plane. And the distance between the first plane and the plane where the screen of the terminal equipment is located is smaller than or equal to a preset distance.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, when the first input is an input in the second mode, the first target content may specifically be the second content or the third content. Of course, the first target content may also be other content, and may be determined according to actual usage requirements.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the terminal device may receive the first input of the user by using an air-separation operation technology. For example, an ultrasonic sensor may be built in below a screen of the terminal device, and the ultrasonic sensor may include a plurality of ultrasonic sensing units. The terminal equipment can periodically scan each ultrasonic sensing unit, acquire a projection image of a finger or a palm of a user on the screen, and process the projection image, so that the user can operate the terminal equipment above the screen in a non-contact manner, namely, the function of space operation can be realized.

For example, assume that the second direction is a direction from the top E of the terminal device to the bottom F of the terminal device. As shown in fig. 5 (a), a top view of a sliding input of a user's palm in a second direction on a first plane is provided for an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in (b) of fig. 5, a cross-sectional view of a sliding input of a user's palm in a second direction on a first plane is provided for the embodiment of the present invention, wherein a distance between the first plane P1 and a plane where a screen P2 of the terminal device is located is d2, and the distance d2 may be less than or equal to a preset distance d 1. As such, after the terminal device receives the first input of the user, the terminal device may select the first target content (e.g., select the second content), and display the prompt information "prompt information: all text content "04 has been selected.

It should be noted that the above embodiment is exemplified by the second direction being a direction from the top E of the terminal device to the bottom F of the terminal device, and does not form any limitation on the embodiment of the present invention. It will be appreciated that the first direction may also be any other possible direction.

S102, the terminal device responds to the first input and selects first target content, and the first target content is second content or third content.

The third content may be a content other than the first content in the second content. The second content and the third content are contents selected by a preset input.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the first target content may also be a first content or a fourth content, where the fourth content is any content randomly selected by the user from the second content.

In an embodiment of the present invention, different first inputs may be used to trigger selection of different first target content.

(1) Taking the second content comprising page 1 text content (i.e. text content of the current page), page 2 text content, … …, and page 9 text content, and the preset input (i.e. the first input) being a sliding input of a finger or a palm of the user in a first area along a preset direction as an example, the terminal device selecting the first target content in response to the first input is exemplarily described as follows:

for example, it is assumed that in a case where the preset input is a slide input of a finger or a palm of a user in a direction from a point a to a point B in a first region as shown in (a) in fig. 4, the preset input is used to trigger selection of the first content. If the terminal device receives a sliding input (i.e., a first input) of a finger or a palm of the user in a direction from the point a to the point B in the first area, the terminal device may select the page 1 text content in response to the first input, i.e., the terminal device may select the first content in a case where the first input is a preset input.

For example, it is assumed that in a case where the preset input is a slide input of a finger or a palm of a user in a direction from a point a to a point D in the first region as shown in (a) in fig. 4, the preset input is used to trigger selection of the second content. If the terminal device receives a sliding input (i.e., a first input) of the user's finger or palm in the direction from point a to point D in the first area, the terminal device may select page 1 text content, page 2 text content, … …, and page 9 text content in response to the first input, i.e., in the case where the first input is a preset input, the terminal device may select the second content.

For example, it is assumed that in a case where the preset input is a slide input of a finger or a palm of a user in a direction from a point a to a point C in the first region as shown in (a) in fig. 4, the preset input is used to trigger selection of the third content. If the terminal device receives a sliding input (i.e., a first input) of the user's finger or palm in the direction from point a to point C in the first area, the terminal device may select page 2 text content, … …, and page 9 text content in response to the first input, i.e., in the case where the first input is a preset input, the terminal device may select the third content.

(2) Taking the second content including page 1 text content (i.e. text content of the current page), page 2 text content, … …, and page 9 text content, and the first input being a selection input of a plurality of sub-options as an example, the terminal device selecting the first target content in response to the first input is exemplarily described below:

for example, if the user slides a finger in a preset direction in the screen of the terminal device or presses the screen, etc., the terminal device may display a first interface 05 as shown in (a) of fig. 6, and the first interface 05 may include 9 sub-options, each of which may be used to select text content in one page. As shown in (b) in fig. 6, if the user clicks the sub option "2" corresponding to the page 2 text content, the sub option "4" corresponding to the page 4 text content, and the sub option "9" corresponding to the page 9 text content in the first interface 05, the terminal device may select the text content (i.e., the fourth content) randomly selected (custom-selected) by the user from the entire text contents in response to the received user input (i.e., the first input) for the three sub options, and display the prompt information "shown in (c) in fig. 6: the text content "06 on page 2, page 4 and page 9 has been selected.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, after the first target content is selected, the user may perform a target operation on the first target content, where the target operation may include a translation operation, a copy operation, a share operation, a delete operation, and the like.

For example, the user may trigger the terminal device to translate the first target content by inputting the translation control, for example, translating the first target content from chinese to english; or, the user can trigger the terminal device to copy the first target content through inputting the copy control; or, the user can trigger the terminal device to share the first target content to the friend of the user through the input of the sharing control; or, the user may trigger the terminal device to delete the first target content from the terminal device through an input to the deletion control. Of course, the user may also perform any other possible operation on the first target content, which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.

In the method for selecting content provided by the embodiments of the present invention, under the condition that there are many contents (for example, text contents acquired after identifying a target picture) in a terminal device, a user may trigger the terminal device to select all the contents (i.e., second contents) or select contents (i.e., third contents) other than contents displayed on a current page, through a preset first input, that is, the user may select contents from all the contents through the first input without triggering the terminal device to switch a page on which the contents are displayed, so that a process of selecting the contents may be simplified, and user time may be saved.

Optionally, with reference to fig. 2, as shown in fig. 7, before "the terminal device receives the first input" in S101, the content selection method provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include S103 and S104 described below. Accordingly, the "terminal device receives the first input" in the above S101 may be specifically realized by S101A described below, and the above S102 may be specifically realized by S102A or S102B described below.

And S103, receiving a second input by the terminal equipment under the condition that the terminal equipment displays the first content.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present invention, the second input may be a touch input, a voice input, a gesture input, or a gravity input. The method can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, S103 may specifically include: the terminal device receives a sliding input of a finger or a palm of a user in a first direction in a first area. The first area is an area where the first content is located in the screen of the terminal device.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first direction is not specifically limited, and may be determined according to actual use requirements. Illustratively, still taking the first region shown in fig. 4 (a) as an example for illustration, the first direction may be a direction from a point a to a point D, or a direction from a point B to a point C, or a direction from a point a to a point B, or a direction from a point D to a point B.

Optionally, the terminal device selects a fifth content in a sliding input process of the finger or the palm of the user in the first region along the first direction, where the fifth content is a part of or all of the first content, compares the number of characters included in the fifth content with a preset threshold, and triggers to execute step S104 when the number of characters included in the fifth content is greater than or equal to the preset threshold.

And S104, the terminal equipment responds to the second input and displays target options, wherein the target options comprise a first option and a second option.

The first option may be used to select the second content, and the second option may be used to select the third content.

S101A, the terminal device receives a first input for one of the target options.

S102A, when the one option is the first option, the terminal device selects the second content.

S102B, if the one option is the second option, the terminal device selects the third content.

It should be noted that, the above embodiments are exemplified by the target option including the first option and the second option, and do not limit the embodiments of the present invention in any way. It is understood that, in actual implementation, the target option may also include other possible options, which may be determined according to actual usage requirements. For example, the target options may also include a third option that may be used to select the first content and a fourth option that may be used to select the fourth content.

In the embodiment of the invention, if the first input is the input of the first option by the user, the first target content is the second content; if the first input is input to the second option by the user, the first target content is third content; if the first input is input to the third option by the user, the first target content is the first content; and if the first input is the input of the user to the fourth option, the first target content is the fourth content.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the terminal device may display the target option in a preset transparency in a preset area of a screen of the terminal device. For example, the terminal device may display the target option with a preset transparency of 30%.

Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, the user may drag the target option in the screen of the terminal device to trigger the terminal device to change the display position of the target option in the screen, that is, to change the display area of the target option.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the fourth option may include a plurality of sub-options, and the fourth content may include a plurality of sub-contents. Wherein each sub-option may be used to select a different sub-content in the fourth content.

For example, (a) in fig. 8 is a schematic diagram illustrating a terminal device displaying a target option according to an embodiment of the present invention, and (b) in fig. 8 is an enlarged view of the target option in (a) in fig. 8. It is assumed that the second input is a slide input in a first direction in a first area of the screen of the terminal device, the first area being an area of the screen of the terminal device where the first content is located. If the terminal device receives a sliding input (i.e., a second input) of the user in the first direction in the screen, the terminal device may display a target option 07 as shown in (a) of fig. 8 in response to the second input, and the target option 07 may include a first option 071, a second option 072, a third option 073, and a fourth option 074. If the user clicks the first option 071 (or the second option 072, or the third option 073), the terminal device may select the second content (or the third content, or the first content); and if the user clicks the fourth option 074, the terminal device may switch the interface as shown in (a) of fig. 8 to the first interface 05 as shown in (a) of fig. 6, and the first interface 05 may include a plurality of sub-options.

It should be noted that, for a specific description that the user selects a plurality of sub-options to trigger the terminal device to select the fourth content, reference may be made to the related description of S102 in the foregoing embodiment, and details are not described here again.

According to the content selection method provided by the embodiment of the invention, different options are displayed on the screen of the terminal equipment, so that a user can select different text contents through inputting different options (namely through different preset inputs), and the flexibility and diversity of text contents selected by the user are improved.

Optionally, with reference to fig. 7, as shown in fig. 9, after S104, the content selection method provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include S105 and S106 described below. S101a1 described below can implement S101A.

Illustratively, the first time period is 10 seconds. After the terminal device displays the target option, the terminal device may start a timer and start timing. If the terminal device does not receive the input of the user to any one of the target options before the timing duration reaches 10 seconds, the terminal device may execute a default operation, for example, the default operation may be to select the first content, select the second content, and select the third content; if the terminal device receives the user input of one of the target options before the timing duration reaches 10 seconds, the terminal device may select the text content corresponding to the one option, for example, if the terminal device receives the user input of the first option, the terminal device may select the entire text content (i.e., the second content).

According to the content selection method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the terminal equipment can execute default operation and automatically select certain text content under the condition that the input of the target option is not received within the first time length after the target option is displayed, so that the flexibility of the terminal equipment for selecting the text content is improved.

Optionally, with reference to fig. 7, as shown in fig. 10, after the above S101A, the content selection method provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include S107 and S108 described below, or may include S107 and S109 described below.

And S107, after receiving the first input, the terminal equipment starts to time.

In the embodiment of the invention, after the first input is received, the terminal equipment can start the timer, start timing and keep displaying the target option within the second time length.

And S108, if a third input aiming at another option in the target options is received within a second time length after the first input is received, the terminal equipment responds to the third input, deselects the first target content and selects the second target content.

The second target content may be content in the second content.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the third input may be an input to another one of the target options.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the second target content may be different from the first target content.

For example, if the first input is an input to a first one of the target options and the third input is an input to a second one of the target options, the terminal device may deselect the second content (i.e., the first target content), select the third content (i.e., the second target content), and restart the timer in response to the third input.

For example, if the first input is an input to a second one of the target options and the third input is an input to the first one of the target options, the terminal device may deselect the third content (i.e., the first target content) and select the second content (i.e., the second target content) and restart the timer in response to the third input.

For example, if the first input is an input to a first option of the target options and the third input is an input to a third option of the target options, the terminal device may deselect the second content (i.e., the first target content), select the first content (i.e., the second target content), and restart the timer in response to the third input.

For example, if the first input is an input to a second option of the target options and the third input is an input to a third option of the target options, the terminal device may deselect the third content (i.e., the first target content), select the first content (i.e., the second target content), and restart the timer in response to the third input.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the second time period may be 10 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds, and the like. The method can be determined according to actual use requirements, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited.

And S109, if a third input aiming at another option in the target options is not received within a second time length after the first input is received, the terminal equipment cancels the display of the target options after the second time length.

For a specific description of the third input, reference may be made to the description related to S108 in the foregoing embodiment, and details are not repeated here.

Illustratively, the terminal device may start a timer and start timing after receiving the first input. If the third input of the user is not received within the second time period, the terminal device may cancel displaying the target option after the timing time period reaches the second time period.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, in the above fig. 10, the terminal device first executes S102A (or S102B) and then executes S107 for an exemplary illustration, which does not limit the embodiment of the present invention at all. It is understood that, in actual implementation, the terminal device may also execute S102A (or S102B), S107; or S107 may be performed first, and then S102A (or S102B) may be performed, which may be determined according to actual usage requirements.

According to the content selection method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the terminal equipment can keep displaying the target option within the second time length after receiving the first input, so that a user can determine whether to reselect the text content according to the requirement, and the experience of the user can be improved.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, in a case where the first input is an input of a finger or a palm of the user in the second direction on the first plane, the first target content may be the second content. Correspondingly, the content selection method provided by the embodiment of the invention may further include the following steps S110 and S111.

And S110, the terminal equipment receives a fourth input of the user.

And S111, the terminal equipment responds to the fourth input and deselects the second content.
