The current of the current series circuit is collected by the current collecting module and is transmitted to the processing unit 120 through the bluetooth signal.

The alignment table is then configured and stored in the processing unit 120. In one embodiment, the glove type input method can be suitable for a stroke order code input method and a five-key English input method, and the comparison table correspondingly comprises a comparison table corresponding to the stroke order code input method and a comparison table corresponding to the five-key English input method. It should be noted that one glove body 110 may be used as an input device, or two glove bodies 110 may be used together as an input device, which is not limited by the present invention.

The instructions comprise a Tab instruction, an input method switching instruction, a cursor forward one character instruction, a cursor backward one character instruction and a determining instruction. The characters mentioned above include five groups of characters abcde, fghij, klmno, rpqst, and uxwxzy.

Next, in step S520, the information corresponding to the current value is searched from the comparison table as input information by the processing unit 120, and the input information is sent to the display unit 130. In one embodiment, the processing unit 120 searches the comparison table for information corresponding to the current value as input information, and the step of sending the input information to the display unit 130 includes:

determining the type of the input method currently used (the type of the input method comprises a stroke order code input method or a five-key English input method), and searching a comparison table corresponding to the type of the input method, wherein the type of the input method comprises the stroke order code input method and the five-key English input method. And searching information corresponding to the current value in the found comparison table, wherein the searched information comprises characters, orders of strokes and instructions. And judging the type of the searched information, if the character is a character, using the searched character as input information, defining the cursor position as the first character position of the input information, and then sending the input information and the cursor position to the display unit 130. If the found information is the stroke order, the found stroke order is used as the input information, and the input information is sent to the display unit 130. If the searched information is an instruction, the searched instruction is executed in the input information determined last time, and the input information determined last time after the instruction is executed is sent to the display unit 130.

Finally, in step S530, the input information is displayed through the display unit 130.
