Referring to fig. 12, fig. 12 is a block diagram of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the disclosure. The electronic device 10 may include a processor 152, and the processor 152 may be integrated on the motherboard 15. The processor 152 may control, according to the control instruction, at least one of a driving mechanism such as the first driving mechanism 18, the second driving mechanism, and the third driving mechanism 19 to drive the moving body 12 and a functional device disposed in the moving body such as the projection optical module 13, the camera module, the indicator light, the ambient light sensor, the infrared sensor, the receiver, the microphone, and the speaker to rotate or extend out of the main body 11 or to be accommodated in the main body 13.

It should be noted that the processor 152 may directly control the functional device according to the control instruction without controlling the moving body as the carrier.

In some embodiments, the processor 152 may control the third driving mechanism 19 to drive the functional device to extend out of the main body 13 when the functional device performs signal transmission with the outside. Such as: the functional device includes one or more of a receiver 17, a microphone 19, a speaker, and the like, and the processor 152 may control the functional device to protrude from the inside of the main body 13 to the outside of the main body 13 when the functional device emits a sound signal to the outside or receives a sound signal from the outside. Such as the processor 152 may control the receiver 17 to extend from the first end 131 of the main body 13 to the outside of the main body 13, and the processor 152 may control the microphone 18 to extend from the second end 132 of the main body 13 to the outside of the main body 13. Also for example: the functional device includes one or more of optical devices such as a proximity sensor, an ambient light sensor, a camera module, a projection optical module 13, and an indicator light, and when the functional device transmits an optical signal to the outside or receives an optical signal from the outside, the processor 152 may control the functional device to extend from inside the main body 13 to outside the main body 13.

When the functional device does not perform signal transmission with the outside, the processor 152 may control the functional device to be accommodated in the main body 13. For example, the processor 152 may control the receiver 17 to be housed in the main body 13. The processor 152 may also control the microphone 19 to be housed within the body 13.

The processor 152 may control one functional device to be extended out of the main body 13 at the same time. The processor 152 may also control the extension of multiple functional devices out of the main body 13 at the same time.

It is understood that when the functional device extends out of the main body 13, the processor 152 may control the functional device to perform signal transmission with the outside, for example, the processor 152 may control the functional device to emit a sound signal to the outside or receive a sound signal from the outside. And for example, the processor 152 controls the functional device to transmit optical signals to and receive optical signals from the outside.

In some embodiments, the control instructions may include instructions triggered when the electronic device 10 makes a call, instructions triggered when an incoming call is notified, instructions triggered when audio is played, instructions triggered when an image is captured, instructions triggered when a touch operation is performed, and the like.

Such as: if the electronic device 10 needs to make a call, the processor 152 may obtain an instruction that the electronic device 10 needs to make a call (such as an instruction triggered when a call is made and an instruction triggered when an incoming call is notified), the processor 152 determines that the electronic device 10 needs to make a call, and the processor 152 may control the receiver 17 and the microphone 19 to extend out of the main body 13 so as to transmit a sound signal.

For another example: electronic device 10 needs to use the camera module to perform face recognition, then processor 152 can obtain the instruction that triggers when electronic device 10 needs to collect an image, and processor 152 can control the camera module to stretch out to the outside of main part 13, so as to collect an image.

Also for example: the processor 152 may obtain a touch operation on the display of the electronic device 10, and the processor 152 may control the functional device to extend out of the main body or be accommodated in the main body according to the touch operation. For example, when the processor 152 receives a sliding operation in the first direction, the processor 152 controls the functional device to move in the first direction, and the functional device can extend out of the main body 13 or be accommodated in the main body 13. Of course, the touch operation is not limited to this, such as the processor 152 receives the click operation of the physical key or the virtual key, and the processor 152 controls the functional device to move, and the functional device can extend out of the main body 13 or be accommodated in the main body 13.

The processor 152 may control the first driving mechanism 18 according to the control instruction, and further, the functional device may be driven by the first driving mechanism 18 to rotate along the radial direction of the main body 11, or rotate around the side of the main body 11.

In some embodiments, the control instructions may include a sliding operation, and the processor 152 is configured to control the first driving mechanism 18 to drive the functional device to rotate towards the preset direction according to the sliding operation in the preset direction. Wherein the sliding operation is such as a sliding operation performed on a display of the electronic device 10. The specific control method is as follows: the processor 152 controls the first driving mechanism 18 to drive the functional device to rotate in the second direction; the sliding operation in the third direction is performed, and the processor 152 controls the first driving mechanism 18 to drive the functional device to rotate in the third direction.

Wherein the second direction and the third direction may be directions perpendicular to the axial direction of the body 12. The second direction and the third direction may be opposite, with at least one opposite component being present. It should be noted that when the second direction and the third direction are not perpendicular to the axial direction of the main body 12, the second direction and the third direction have at least a component perpendicular to the axial direction of the main body 12. The functional device is rotatable toward a component perpendicular to the axial direction of the body 12.

In some embodiments, the processor 152 is configured to control the angle at which the first drive mechanism 18 drives the functional device to rotate based on the sliding distance of the sliding operation. The sliding distance may be a distance perpendicular to the axial direction of the body 12, or the sliding distance may be a distance around the first side 126.

In some embodiments, the processor 152 is configured to control the speed at which the first drive mechanism 18 drives the functional device to rotate based on the degree of sliding motion of the sliding operation. The sliding force of the sliding operation may be a force of pressing the display of the electronic device 10, and may be detected by using a pressure sensor. For example, if the sliding force of the sliding operation is large, the processor 152 controls the first driving mechanism 18 to drive the functional device to rotate faster; the sliding force of the sliding operation is small, and the processor 152 controls the first driving mechanism 18 to rotate the functional device slowly.

In some embodiments, the control instructions further include a clicking operation, and the processor 152 is configured to control the first driving mechanism 18 to drive the functional device to rotate towards the first preset position at a first rotation speed according to the clicking operation at the first preset position, so that the functional device corresponds to the first preset position. It should be noted that a physical key or a virtual key may be provided on the electronic device 10, and the processor 152 controls the first driving mechanism 18 to drive the functional device to rotate towards the position of the physical key or the virtual key at the first rotation speed through a click operation of the physical key or the virtual key. It should be noted that the first predetermined position is not limited to the physical key and the virtual key. The first rotational speed may be an average speed.

In some embodiments, the control instructions further comprise a long press operation, and the processor 152 is configured to control the first driving mechanism 18 to drive the functional device to rotate towards the second preset position at a second rotation speed according to the long press operation of the second preset position, so that the functional device corresponds to the second preset position. It should be noted that a physical key or a virtual key may be provided on the electronic device 10, and the processor 152 controls the first driving mechanism 18 to drive the rotating body 14 to rotate towards the position of the physical key or the virtual key at the second rotating speed through a long-pressing operation of the physical key or the virtual key. It should be noted that the second preset position is not limited to the physical key and the virtual key, and the second preset position may be the same as the first preset position. The second rotational speed may be an average speed. For example, the second rotational speed may be greater than the first rotational speed. It should be noted that the second rotation speed may be smaller than the first rotation speed.

The control command is not limited to this. The control function device is rotated in the radial direction of the main body 11, such as according to gravity, acceleration direction, sound control, and the like.

It will be appreciated that the processor 152 may not only control the first drive mechanism 18 to drive the functional device in rotation. The processor 152 may also control the flexible display 14 to display, and the processor 152 may also control the functional devices to signal transmission. Such as the functional device 15 includes a camera module, the processor 152 can control the camera module to capture images to take pictures or photographs. For example, when the user needs to take a picture or needs face recognition (such as face recognition unlocking and face recognition payment), the processor 152 starts the camera module to operate through a picture taking instruction, a face recognition instruction, and other instructions. It should be noted that when the lens direction of the camera module is not aligned with the face of the user or the desired shooting position, the camera module can be controlled by the processor 152 to rotate to the desired position. Therefore, the purpose of collecting images can be achieved through the control of the processor 152 on the camera module, convenience is brought to users, and convenience is improved.

When the functional device includes the projection optics module 13, the processor 152 may control the projection optics module 13 to perform projection. For example, when a user opens a meeting and needs to project a picture, the processor 152 may control to project the picture to be projected to a preset position through the projection optical module for the user to view. It should be noted that the processor 152 may also control the first driving mechanism 18 to drive the projection optical module to rotate, so as to automatically control the projected picture.

When the functional device comprises an electroacoustic device (such as a receiver, a microphone), the processor 152 may control the electroacoustic device to emit a sound signal or to receive a sound signal. For example, when a user is engaged in a meeting that requires multiple directions to be sounded or sounded, the processor 152 can be controlled to rotate the electroacoustic device to continuously transmit or receive sound signals toward different locations.

The processor 152 may control the second driving mechanism according to the control instruction, and further, the functional device may be driven to rotate in a direction perpendicular to the radial direction of the main body 11 by the second driving mechanism. The processor 152 controls the functional device to rotate in a direction perpendicular to the radial direction of the main body 11 by, for example, a sliding operation, so as to perform fine adjustment of the functional device in the direction perpendicular to the radial direction of the main body 11, for the convenience of the user. The sliding operation can refer to the above contents, which is described in detail in this step. It should be noted that the processor 152 may also control the functional device to rotate in a direction perpendicular to the radial direction of the main body 11 by clicking operation, long-pressing operation, or the like.
