Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a multi-touch recognition method for an infrared touch screen according to a first embodiment of the present application. In this embodiment, an execution main body of the infrared touch screen multi-touch recognition method is a device having an infrared touch screen multi-touch recognition function. The multi-touch recognition method of the infrared touch screen as shown in fig. 1 may include:
s101: and generating an infrared image according to the collected infrared information.
And a plurality of groups of infrared transceiving modules are arranged in an infrared touch screen of the terminal equipment. Each group of infrared transceiver modules comprises an infrared transmitting tube and an infrared receiving tube. The infrared transmitting tube and the infrared receiving tube are arranged separately.
In the infrared transceiving module, the infrared transmitting tube can transmit infrared rays, the infrared receiving tube can receive the infrared rays and convert optical signals of the received infrared rays into electric signals to obtain signal values corresponding to the infrared rays. The infrared detection network can be formed by multiple groups of infrared receiving and transmitting modules.
When the infrared transmitting tube transmits infrared rays, the infrared rays may be received by the corresponding infrared receiving tube. If the infrared ray is not blocked, the signal value of the infrared ray received by the infrared receiving tube should be a preset value.
If the infrared ray is blocked, the intensity of the infrared ray will drop sharply, so that the signal value of the infrared ray received by the infrared receiving tube is far smaller than the preset value.
Therefore, in the practical application process, the terminal device can judge whether the infrared ray corresponding to the infrared receiving tube is blocked according to the signal value of the infrared ray detected by the infrared receiving tube.
And if the signal value of the infrared ray received by one infrared receiving tube is smaller than a preset threshold value, the infrared ray corresponding to the infrared receiving tube is shielded by the object.
And if the signal value of the infrared ray received by a certain infrared receiving tube is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value, indicating that the infrared ray corresponding to the infrared receiving tube is not shielded by the object.
The infrared shielding object may be a finger, a stylus or other object.
The preset threshold value may be determined according to the preset value and the allowable error threshold value. For example, the preset threshold may be a difference value obtained by subtracting the error threshold from the preset value. Alternatively, the preset threshold may be another value that is greater than the difference and smaller than the preset value.
When the terminal equipment performs touch recognition, the terminal equipment can acquire the acquired infrared information. The infrared ray information may be signal values of infrared rays collected by the respective infrared receiving tubes.
And then, the terminal equipment can determine the shielded infrared rays according to the signal values of the infrared rays collected by the infrared receiving tubes.
After determining the blocked infrared rays, the terminal device may determine the start position and the end position of each blocked infrared ray according to a preset rectangular coordinate system.
The starting position is the position coordinate of the infrared emission tube corresponding to the shielded infrared ray.
The end position is a position coordinate of the infrared receiving tube corresponding to the blocked infrared ray.
The terminal equipment can determine pixel points through which the shielded infrared rays pass according to the starting position and the ending position of each shielded infrared ray and the width of each infrared ray.
Then, the terminal device may generate an infrared image based on the pixel points through which the respective blocked infrared rays pass.
In the infrared image, if a pixel point at a certain position is passed by a shielded infrared ray, the pixel value of the pixel point is accumulated by K. If the pixel point is passed by N shielded infrared rays, the pixel value of the pixel point is accumulated for N times, and the pixel value of the pixel point is N x K. K is a natural number greater than 0, and N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 0.
The terminal equipment can determine the pixel value of each pixel point in the infrared image according to the number of the shielded infrared rays passing through each pixel point in the infrared image.
For example, as shown in fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of an infrared path disposed on an infrared touch screen. The rectangular area in fig. 2 is an area blocked by the blocking object, and the rectangular area blocks a plurality of infrared rays. At this time, the terminal device may determine the blocked infrared rays according to the signal values collected by the infrared receiving tubes, and determine the pixel values of the pixel points through which the blocked infrared rays pass, thereby obtaining the infrared image in this embodiment.
Note that the infrared image may be a grayscale image. At this time, the pixel value of each pixel point in the infrared image is the gray value of the pixel point. In this embodiment, the grayscale image may be an 8-bit grayscale image, that is, the image may have 256 levels of grayscale values at most, and the grayscale value range may be 0 to 255.
In the embodiment of the application, the terminal device may generate an infrared image according to the collected infrared information. In the infrared image, the higher the pixel value of the pixel point is, the higher the possibility that the pixel point belongs to the shielded area is. Therefore, compared with the prior art, the terminal device of the embodiment can more intuitively and accurately represent the possibility that each pixel belongs to the shielded area through the pixel value of each pixel in the infrared image.
Further, since the touch point is generally passed by a plurality of infrared rays, the terminal device may take the currently generated infrared image as an initial image.
And then, the terminal equipment carries out filtering processing on the initial image, takes the pixel points with the pixel values smaller than the preset pixel threshold value in the initial image as noise points, and sets the pixel values of the noise points as 0, so as to obtain the filtered infrared image.
The preset pixel threshold value can be set according to an actual scene. For example, the preset pixel threshold may be set to a value of 5, 10, 20, etc.
In the infrared image, the lower the pixel value of a pixel point is, the lower the possibility that the pixel point belongs to a shielded area is. Therefore, the terminal device filters the initial image through the preset pixel threshold value, noise points in the initial image can be filtered, the subsequent calculation amount for processing the infrared image is reduced, and the accuracy for identifying the target touch area is improved.
S102: and traversing the pixel value of each pixel point in the infrared image to obtain the peak area of the infrared image.
After the terminal device acquires the infrared image, the pixel value of each row of pixel points in the infrared image in the horizontal direction and the pixel value of each column of pixel points in the vertical direction can be acquired.
Then, the terminal device may traverse pixel values of pixel points in each row in the infrared image in the horizontal direction, and perform curve fitting according to the pixel values of the pixel points in each row and the abscissa of each pixel point to obtain a first pixel curve corresponding to the pixel points in each row.
After the terminal device acquires the first pixel curve, a peak point and a valley point in the first pixel curve may be searched.
In the first pixel curve, the pixel value of the peak point is greater than the pixel values of the pixel points on the two adjacent sides, and the pixel value of the valley point is less than the pixel values of the pixel points on the two adjacent sides.
After determining the peak point of the first pixel curve, the terminal device may determine a wave region corresponding to the peak point. Wherein, the area from the peak point to the valley point at two adjacent sides is the wave area of the peak point.
For example, as shown in fig. 3, a is a peak point in the first pixel curve, B and C are valley points adjacent to the point a in the first pixel curve, the pixel values of the respective pixel points in the region from the point B to the point a monotonically increase, and the pixel values of the respective pixel points in the region from the point a to the point C monotonically decrease.
At this time, the terminal device may determine a region from point B to point C as a wave region of point a.
After determining the wave region corresponding to the peak point, the terminal device may intercept a first peak region in the wave region corresponding to the peak point according to a preset peak height. The difference value between the pixel value of the peak point and the pixel value of each pixel point in the first peak area is smaller than or equal to the preset peak height.
For example, as shown in fig. 3, a region from point B to point C is determined as a wave region of the peak point a. The terminal device can intercept the region from the point B to the point C according to the preset peak height to obtain a point D and a point E.
The region from the point D to the point E is a peak region of the point A, and the difference value between the pixel value of the point A and each pixel point of the region from the point D to the point E is smaller than or equal to the preset peak height.
Similarly, the terminal device may traverse the pixel values of the pixels in each column in the vertical direction in the infrared image, and perform curve fitting according to the pixel values of the pixels in each column and the ordinate of each pixel to obtain a second pixel curve corresponding to each column.
Then, the terminal device determines a peak point and a valley point in the second pixel curve according to the second pixel curve.
In the second pixel curve, the pixel value of the peak point is greater than the pixel values of the pixel points on the two adjacent sides, and the pixel value of the valley point is less than the pixel values of the pixel points on the two adjacent sides.
After determining the peak point of the second pixel curve, the terminal device may determine a wave region corresponding to the peak point. Wherein, the area from the peak point to the valley point at two adjacent sides is the wave area of the peak point.
After determining the wave region corresponding to the peak point, the terminal device may intercept a second peak region in the wave region corresponding to the peak point according to a preset peak height.
The difference value between the pixel value of the peak point and the pixel value of each pixel point in the second peak area is smaller than or equal to the preset peak height.
In this way, the terminal device may determine the first peak area corresponding to each first pixel curve according to the peak point and the preset peak height of each first pixel curve, and determine the second peak area corresponding to each second pixel curve according to the peak point and the preset peak height of each second pixel curve.
Then, the terminal device may determine a peak region of the infrared image based on the first peak region and the second peak region.
Specifically, if a certain pixel point belongs to both a first peak region of a certain first pixel curve and a second peak region of a certain second pixel curve, the terminal device may determine the pixel point as a peak point of the infrared image, and determine a position where the peak point of the infrared image is located as the peak region of the infrared image.
For example, if a certain pixel belongs to the first peak region in the X-th row and the pixel also belongs to the second peak region in the Y-th row, the pixel is a peak point of the infrared image, and the position of the pixel belongs to the peak region of the infrared image. X and Y are both positive integers greater than 0.
It can be understood that, in the infrared image, the higher the pixel value of a pixel point is, the higher the possibility that the pixel point belongs to a blocked area is. Therefore, the blocked region should be a peak region where the peak point in the infrared image is located.
Therefore, in this embodiment, the terminal device traverses the pixel values of the respective pixel points in the infrared image, so as to identify the peak region of the infrared image. At this time, the terminal device may limit the screening range of the target touch area to the peak area of the recognized infrared image, reduce the workload of screening the target touch area, and improve the accuracy of recognizing the target touch area.
And, the terminal device may identify the first peak region from the row direction and the second peak region from the column direction, respectively, in identifying the peak region of the infrared image. Then, the terminal equipment integrates the first peak area and the second peak area to identify the peak area of the infrared image. The wave crest region of the infrared image is determined in the secondary identification mode, so that the accuracy of identifying the wave crest region of the infrared image can be further improved.
S103: and determining a target touch area according to the peak area and a preset screening rule.
After the terminal device acquires the peak area of the infrared image, the terminal device can determine a target touch area from the peak area according to a preset screening rule.
The preset screening rules can be set according to actual requirements.
In some possible implementation manners, the terminal device may obtain the number of pixel points included in each peak area, and determine the peak area in which the number of pixel points is greater than the first number threshold as the target touch area.
When a user touches the infrared touch screen, the area touched by the user should have a certain area. In addition, in the infrared image, the area of each peak region is related to the number of pixel points in the peak region. Therefore, the terminal device may set the first number threshold when recognizing the target touch area.
If the number of the pixel points in a certain peak area is smaller than or equal to the first number threshold, the area of the peak area is smaller, and the peak area is not a target touch area.
If the number of the pixel points in a certain peak area is greater than the first number threshold, the terminal device may determine the peak area as a target touch area.
At the moment, the terminal equipment can quickly and accurately identify the target touch area from each wave crest area according to the number of pixel points contained in each wave crest area, and the identification speed and accuracy of the target touch area are improved.
In other possible implementation manners, the terminal device may determine a connected region of a pixel point corresponding to the peak region, and determine the connected region as a suspected touch region according to the connected region.
And pixel points in each wave peak area are wave peak points of the infrared image. At this time, the terminal device may determine the connected region of the pixel point corresponding to the peak region according to the coordinates of each peak point.
The communication area is an image area formed by adjacent peak points, namely any two pixel points in the communication area can be connected by a line completely belonging to the communication area.
The terminal device may obtain the connected region of the pixel point corresponding to the peak region through any one of algorithms such as an image segmentation method, a seed filling method, a watershed method, a region growing method and the like based on the binary image, and the terminal device does not limit the adopted algorithm.
After the connected areas are determined, the terminal device may screen the connected areas to obtain a suspected touch area. For example, the terminal device may obtain the number of pixel points of each connected region, and determine the connected region in which the number of pixel points is greater than the second number threshold as the suspected touch region.
After the suspected touch area is determined, the terminal device may acquire feature information of the suspected touch area, and determine authenticity evaluation degree information of the suspected touch area based on the feature information.
The characteristic information is used to identify characteristics of the suspected touch area. The characteristic information may include one or more of information such as an area of the pseudo-touch area, the number of infrared rays passing through the pseudo-touch area, and a highest pixel value in the pseudo-touch area.
After the terminal device obtains the feature information, the terminal device may score the feature information according to a preset scoring standard to obtain authenticity evaluation degree information corresponding to each suspected touch area.
When the characteristic information includes only one type of information, the authenticity rating information is a rating value of the information. When the characteristic information includes a plurality of kinds of information, the authenticity evaluation degree information is a sum of score values corresponding to the respective information.
After determining the authenticity evaluation degree information of the suspected touch area, the terminal device may screen out the target touch area from the suspected touch area based on the authenticity evaluation degree information, and obtain the position information of the target touch area.
Specifically, the higher the authenticity evaluation degree information is, the higher the possibility that the pseudo touch area corresponding to the authenticity evaluation degree information is a real touch area is.
Therefore, the terminal device may determine the suspected touch area corresponding to the authenticity evaluation degree information greater than the preset information threshold as the target touch area. Or, the terminal device may sort the authenticity evaluation degree information corresponding to each pseudo touch area in order from high to low, and select the pseudo touch area corresponding to the highest K pieces of authenticity evaluation degree information as the target touch area. K is a preset positive integer.
For example, when the user uses the infrared touch panel, the user generally performs single-point touch with one finger, two-point touch with two fingers, and three-point touch with three fingers, and therefore K may be set to 3. When a plurality of suspected touch areas exist, the suspected touch area corresponding to the highest 3 pieces of authenticity evaluation degree information may be selected as the target touch area.
In the above description, the terminal device sets the preset scoring criterion. Through the preset scoring standard, the terminal equipment can calculate the authenticity evaluation degree information of each suspected touch area according to the characteristic information of each suspected touch area, and the credibility of each suspected touch area is quantized, so that the terminal equipment can conveniently and quickly screen the target touch area according to the authenticity evaluation degree information of each suspected touch area, and the identification speed and the accuracy of the target touch area are improved.
To sum up, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device generates an infrared image according to the collected infrared information; traversing pixel values of all points in the infrared image to obtain a peak area of the infrared image; and determining a target touch area according to the peak area and a preset screening rule. In the prior art, a suspected touch area is determined by simply judging whether an infrared signal is shielded or not, once the infrared signal is shielded, a suspected touch area exists, so that a large number of suspected touch areas are detected, the workload for screening the final target touch area from the large number of suspected touch areas is huge, the identification speed during multi-point touch is low, and due to the fact that the data size is too large, the condition of wrong screening or screen missing may occur during screening, and the identification precision during multi-point touch is low. In the above scheme, although whether the infrared signal is blocked is also determined, when the infrared ray is blocked, the suspected touch area is not directly determined, but the infrared image is determined according to the blocked infrared ray, and then the peak area corresponding to the infrared image is acquired. It is understood that the infrared image in this embodiment may correspond to a suspected touch area in the prior art. In this embodiment, the peak area of the infrared image corresponds to the suspected touch area, that is, in the above scheme, the suspected touch area is obtained by further performing screening on the basis of the suspected touch area obtained in the prior art. Therefore, the number of the suspected touch areas obtained in the above scheme is less than that obtained in the prior art. Therefore, the number of the suspected touch areas obtained through the embodiment is greatly reduced, the workload for subsequently screening the target touch areas from the suspected touch areas is also reduced, the identification speed can be increased, the condition that the screen is mistaken or missed due to overlarge workload can be avoided, the target touch areas can be more accurately screened, and the identification precision and the identification speed during multi-point touch are improved.
It should be understood that, the sequence numbers of the steps in the foregoing embodiments do not imply an execution sequence, and the execution sequence of each process should be determined by its function and inherent logic, and should not constitute any limitation to the implementation process of the embodiments of the present application.
