Detailed Description

The three-dimensional display device includes a VR (Virtual Reality) device or an AR (Augmented Reality) device.

When the three-dimensional display equipment is used for immersion experience, virtual reality application is configured in the three-dimensional display equipment, and a virtual user interface is presented in a virtual space when the virtual reality application is started, namely when a user wears the three-dimensional display equipment for immersion experience, the virtual user interface is presented in front of the user. The method comprises the steps that functional controls capable of achieving different business requirements are displayed in a virtual user interface, each business requirement corresponds to one function, and the business requirements comprise home page recommendation, navigation and the like; 2D movies, educational courses, travel, 3D, 360 degree panorama, live broadcast, 4K movies, program applications, games, travel, etc. in the home recommendation page.

The three-dimensional display device provides an immersive experience of the three-dimensional scene such that the space of the three-dimensional display device is a three-dimensional space, unlike a conventional two-dimensional space. Therefore, for the layout and interaction mode of the virtual user interface, different from the flat display devices such as televisions, mobile phones and the like, the three-dimensional display device has the capability of controlling the three-dimensional layout, is not limited to a plane in front of eyes, can be flexibly laid out in a 360-degree space of up, down, left, right, front and back, and can see different interfaces along with the rotation of the head of a person.

When the virtual user interface is arranged and interacted, the problems that the traditional two-dimensional space arrangement mode is simply transplanted to a three-dimensional space, interaction is difficult, discomfort which is inconsistent with expectation when the visual angle of a user is changed due to unscientific arrangement is caused, user experience is influenced, different arrangements can be provided according to the visual characteristics of people, and therefore the user experience is improved. The layout mode aims to fully utilize the three-dimensional space characteristics and the visual characteristics of people to carry out layout and interaction, so that all layouts can be operated in a comfortable experience range.

Because the virtual user interface is displayed in the three-dimensional virtual space, the overall interface overall layout of the virtual user interface can be divided into regions around the main visual angle of human eyes so that different contents can be borne in the three-dimensional space according to the visual characteristics of the human eyes. The main visual angle refers to a range that eyes of a user can see when the head of the user is not rotated, and the main visual angle of the three-dimensional display device can be understood as a range of images which can be displayed by the device.

According to the advantages of the space layout, more information can be displayed in one interface, so that the functional areas are divided according to the space positions and the ergonomic characteristics, different contents are displayed in different functional areas, and more contents can be scientifically displayed at one time.

FIG. 1 illustrates a global schematic of a virtual user interface of a three-dimensional display device according to some embodiments. As shown in fig. 1, the regions of the global interface divided according to the main visual angle of the human eye include: a main viewing angle region, a main viewing angle top region, a main viewing angle bottom region, a main viewing angle left region, and a main viewing angle right region.

The main viewing angle area shows the most frequently used functions, i.e., media, applications, games, etc., available to the user. The left and right areas of the main visual angle are secondary convenient operation areas for the function expansion of the main visual angle area. Different from the defect that the visual angle of human eyes in a two-dimensional space is limited, the content in an ultra-large visual angle range is difficult to clearly view in the horizontal direction. However, the stereoscopic space is different, and the left area and the right area of the main viewing angle are respectively arranged on the two sides of the main viewing angle area, so that the contents on the left side and the right side can be conveniently seen through orthogonal layout.

The top area of the main visual angle is a common prompt information display area and comprises information such as time, network and electric quantity, and the bottom area of the main visual angle is an application shortcut entrance, so that application switching starting can be realized. Meanwhile, in the space range, the virtual user interface also supports three-dimensional model animation display for operation information display and entry.

And after a user wears the three-dimensional display equipment and starts a virtual reality application configured in the three-dimensional display equipment, presenting a virtual user interface in a virtual space. The virtual user interface is divided into the regions shown in fig. 1, and the corresponding contents are respectively displayed in the regions.

In some embodiments, in the layout mode shown in fig. 1, the most comfortable and easy-to-operate area is within the field angle of 60 degrees directly in front of the human eyes, so that the content most concerned by the user is displayed. Therefore, the most frequently used functions can be displayed in the main visual angle area of the virtual user interface, and the user can conveniently view the functions. That is, the content recommendation region is shown in the main viewing angle region, and the content recommendation region is shown as (1) in fig. 1.

The top area of the content recommendation area shows prompt information including information such as time, network and electric quantity, the middle area of the content recommendation area shows and displays a homepage, and the bottom of the content recommendation area shows a navigation bar. The display homepage is used for showing a page comprising function controls of virtual reality applications providing different service requirements, and a plurality of navigation buttons are displayed in the navigation bar, wherein the set number of the navigation buttons can be 7 or other numerical values. The navigation bar is shown as the area (2) in fig. 1.

The prompt information, the displayed home page and the navigation bar are all displayed within the range of 60 degrees right in front of the eyes, and the content hierarchical relationship of the content recommendation area can be better divided, so that the hierarchical relationship of navigation and page set is formed, and the user is supported to browse and search interesting content more conveniently.

In some embodiments, in order to provide a user with special recommendations, for example, information about currently existing activities, heat movies, etc., when the user operates the virtual reality application, a three-dimensional model animation, that is, a message recommendation entry, may be further presented in the virtual user interface, and the UI state may refer to the content shown in part (4) in fig. 1.

The message recommendation entrance is a configurable three-dimensional animation, compared with a two-dimensional picture form, the three-dimensional animation can flexibly configure characters, pictures, animations, sounds and the like, and active requests are applied according to configuration required by operation activities.

In some embodiments, an application switching area including applications with different attributes is presented in a bottom area of a main viewing angle of a virtual user interface, and the application switching area is used as an application shortcut entry to quickly start applications recommended by an application homepage presentation system, applications with higher heat and frequently used by a user, and the like, so that more exposure of the corresponding applications is increased, and the applications are recommended to the user for use or installation. The application switching area can display the applications recommended by the system for the user and can also display the locally installed applications, namely the applications with different attributes comprise the system recommended applications and the locally installed applications. The system recommendation application comprises a system recommendation installation application and a system recommendation use application, and the local installation application comprises a system preset application and a third-party application installed by a user. The application switching area is shown as (3) in fig. 1.

The application switching area is located on a homepage of the virtual user interface so as to show the recommended applications for the user. However, because the attributes of the applications are different, the applications with different attributes include a system recommendation application and a local installation application, so that the applications with different attributes cannot be distinguished when a virtual reality user interface is displayed, and the user experience is not good.

Therefore, in order to distinguish different attributes when displaying applications and give consideration to both operation requirements and user requirements, embodiments of the present invention provide a three-dimensional display device, which divides an application switching area when displaying a virtual user interface, and displays applications with the same attribute in the same area, so that a user can select interaction on purpose, confusion is avoided, and interaction experience is better.

FIG. 2 illustrates a flow diagram of a method for presentation of application icons in a virtual user interface, in accordance with some embodiments. The embodiment of the invention provides three-dimensional display equipment, which comprises: a virtual display configured to present a virtual user interface including an application switching zone; a controller connected to the virtual display, the controller being configured to perform the following steps when executing the method for presenting the application icon in the virtual user interface shown in fig. 2:

s1, responding to an application starting instruction generated when the virtual reality application is triggered, acquiring a first application and a second application which need to be displayed, and system configuration information used for representing whether a home terminal is configured with a recommendation display function.

The interaction of the three-dimensional display equipment is different from the traditional television, mobile phone and the like, and generally the interaction is carried out through a head touch point or a handle, so that the interaction is not carried out in a remote controller mode, and any UI control presented in a virtual user interface can be freely selected to be operated like a mouse.

A user wears the three-dimensional display equipment, triggers the virtual reality application configured in the three-dimensional display equipment, and generates a virtual user interface in a virtual three-dimensional space. The virtual user interface can refer to the content shown in fig. 1, and when the application needs to be displayed, the virtual user interface can be displayed in the application switching area shown in (3) in fig. 1.

Therefore, when an application starting instruction is generated, the three-dimensional display device acquires a first application and a second application which need to be displayed from a server, and system configuration information used for representing whether a home terminal is configured with a recommendation display function. The server is a system end, and various types of data required by the three-dimensional display equipment are stored in the server.

In some embodiments, the second application is a system recommendation application and the first application is a local installation application. The system recommendation application refers to an application which is recommended to be used or recommended to be installed by a system to the three-dimensional display equipment, and comprises a system recommendation installation application and a system recommendation use application; the locally installed application refers to an application configured in the three-dimensional display device, and comprises a system preset application and a third-party application installed by a user.

In some embodiments, the number of applications displayed in the application switching area is limited, and the applications with different attributes are not all displayed, but only the applications which are recently used by the user, frequently used by the user in history, high in current popularity or high in commercial value are displayed, so that the applications are given more exposure to guide the user to start the applications.

For example, when the system recommends an application in the application switching area, the application may be an application that has not been installed and is recommended by the system according to the user preference, or may also be an application that has been installed by the user and is recommended by the system. If the recommended application is not installed, directly jumping to an application downloading page to download and install when the application is triggered; if an installed application is recommended, the application may be launched directly when triggered.

In some embodiments, to separately display the different attribute applications, a fixed display area and a page-turning display area may be generated in the application switching area, and at this time, the application switching area loads the second template interface. A plurality of fixed display positions are configured in a fixed display area in a second template interface, and each fixed display position is used for displaying the recommended application of the system; and a page turning display area in the second template interface is provided with a plurality of page turning display positions, and each page turning display position is used for displaying the local installation application. The fixed display area and the page turning display area are not always displayed at the same time, and when the system end does not recommend the application to the equipment end or the equipment end does not need to display the recommended application, the fixed display area is canceled from displaying, and only the page turning display area is displayed. At this time, the application switching area loads a first template interface, and only the page turning display bit exists in the first template interface.

In some embodiments, whether the system side recommends an application for a user and whether the device side performs a function of presentation may be selectively configured by a developer according to device parameters. Therefore, when the application is displayed in the virtual user interface, whether the three-dimensional display equipment has the recommended display function or not can be judged according to the system configuration information.

The recommendation display function is used for representing whether the system terminal recommends the application for the equipment terminal or not and whether the three-dimensional display equipment needs to display the application recommended by the system terminal or not. If the home terminal has the recommendation display function, loading a second template interface in the application switching area to simultaneously display the fixed display area and the page turning display area, namely simultaneously displaying the fixed display position and the page turning display position; and if the home terminal does not have the recommendation display function, loading the first template interface in the application switching area, and only displaying the page turning display area, namely only displaying the page turning display position.

In some embodiments, the controller, when determining whether the local terminal is configured with the recommended presentation function according to the system configuration information, is further configured to:

and 11, acquiring the current display quantity of the second application and the configuration quantity of the fixed display bits of the system configuration in the system configuration information.

And step 12, if the configuration number of the fixed display bits is zero, determining that the system configuration information represents that the home terminal is not configured with the recommended display function.

And step 13, if the current display number of the second application is zero, setting the configuration number of the fixed display bits to be zero, and determining that the system configuration information represents that the home terminal is not configured with the recommended display function.

And 14, if the configuration number of the fixed display bits is not zero and the current display number of the second application is not zero, determining that the system configuration information represents that the home terminal is configured with the recommended display function.

When judging whether the local terminal is configured with the recommendation display function, the judging conditions include two conditions, namely the configuration number of the fixed display positions for displaying the system recommendation application and the current display number of the second application (system recommendation application) pushed by the system terminal, wherein the current display number of the second application refers to the number of the applications which are recommended by the system terminal and need to be displayed in the three-dimensional display device. The configuration number and the current display number are both stored in the system configuration information, so that the current display number of the second application and the configuration number of the fixed display bits of the system configuration can be obtained according to the system configuration information.

In some embodiments, the fixed display bits are positions in the fixed display area where the system recommended application display can be performed, and if the configuration number of the fixed display bits in the fixed display area is zero, it is indicated that the fixed display area is not configured at the three-dimensional display device end, that is, the application switching area presents the first template interface. At this time, no matter whether the system side recommends the demonstrable application to the device side, the demonstrable application cannot be displayed in the fixed display area. Therefore, the fact that the local terminal is not configured with the recommended showing function can be determined according to the system configuration information.

In some embodiments, if the current display number of the second application is zero, it indicates that the system side does not recommend the displayable second application to the device side, and also indicates that the device side does not display the fixed display bits. For example, if the system side does not recommend an application, if the device side still displays the fixed display positions, there is no content that can be displayed on each fixed display position, which results in that the display content in the fixed display area is empty. The blank fixed display area still occupies the space of the application switching area, so that the number of applications which can be displayed in the page turning display area is reduced, and the interface layout and the user experience are influenced. Therefore, when the current display number of the second application is zero, the device end will not display any more even if the device end is configured with the fixed display bit. At this time, it may be determined that the home terminal is not configured with the recommended presentation function according to the system configuration information.

In some embodiments, if the configured number of fixed display bits of the fixed display area is zero, it indicates that the device is not configured with fixed display bits. If the current display number of the second application is zero, it indicates that the system side does not recommend the displayable application, that is, the content display is not required to be performed at the fixed display position, so that the device does not need to configure the fixed display position, and at this time, the configuration number of the fixed display position can be set to zero. Based on the method, the fact that the home terminal is not configured with the recommended display function can be determined according to the system configuration information.

It can be seen that, when it is determined that the recommended display function is not configured on the three-dimensional display device, the determination criteria include three conditions, namely (1) the configuration number of the fixed display bits of the fixed display area is zero, (2) the current display number of the second application is zero, (3) the configuration number of the fixed display bits of the fixed display area is zero, and the current display number of the second application is zero.

In some embodiments, if the configured number of the fixed display bits is not zero and the current display number of the second application is not zero, it indicates that the device side is configured with the fixed display area (the fixed display bits), and the system side recommends the displayable application to the device side. At this time, the second application needs to be displayed in the fixed display area, that is, the home terminal is determined to be configured with the recommended display function according to the system configuration information.

It can be seen that, when it is determined that the recommended display function is configured on the three-dimensional display device, the determination criterion includes a condition that neither the configuration number of the fixed display bits nor the current display number of the second application is zero.

S2, if the system configuration information indicates that the home terminal is not configured with the recommended display function, loading a first template interface including a page turning display position in the application switching area, displaying an icon of the first application in the page turning display position, and moving the icon displayed in the page turning display position to the direction indicated by the moving instruction when the moving instruction is received.

When the fact that the local terminal is not configured with the recommended display function is determined according to the system configuration information, the fact that the configuration number of the fixed display positions of the fixed display area is zero and/or the current display number of the second application is zero is indicated, the device terminal does not need to display the icons of the second application in the fixed display area, and only needs to display the icons of the first application in the page turning display positions. Therefore, the first template interface including the page turning display position is loaded in the application switching area to display the icon of the first application in the page turning display position, and the application switching area is displayed in the bottom area of the main visual angle of the virtual user interface.

FIG. 3 illustrates a presentation effect diagram of a page flip display area when the home terminal is not configured with a recommendation presentation function according to some embodiments. If the configuration number of the fixed display bits is zero and/or the current display number of the second application is zero, it is indicated that the device side does not configure the fixed display bits and there is no second application recommended by the system, and at this time, only the first application, such as the locally installed application, needs to be displayed. Therefore, the first template interface only comprising the page turning display area is displayed in the application switching area, a plurality of page turning display positions are displayed in the page turning display area, and the page turning display positions are used for displaying the locally installed application. Referring to fig. 3 (a), the application switching area includes a page turning display area in which seven page turning display bits are presented, respectively showing seven local installation applications B1-B7.

In some embodiments, if the total number of first applications that need to be presented on the page turn display bit exceeds the configured number of page turn display bits, then all of the first applications cannot be presented simultaneously. At this time, the application icon on the page turning display position can be triggered to move through page turning operation, so as to view the application icons in the subsequent or the preorder.

For example, the user triggers page turning buttons on both sides of the application switching area through the handle to generate a moving instruction. If the right page turning button is triggered to turn pages leftwards, the direction corresponding to the moving instruction is to be moved leftwards, so that the application icons on the page turning display positions are controlled to move leftwards integrally, a new application icon is displayed on the rightmost page turning display position again, and the application icon displayed on the leftmost page turning display position is hidden.

For another example, if the left page turning button is triggered to turn the page to the right, the direction corresponding to the moving instruction moves to the right, so that the application icons on the page turning display positions are controlled to move to the right integrally, a new application icon is redisplayed on the leftmost page turning display position, and the application icon originally displayed on the rightmost page turning display position is hidden. The specific implementation process of the page turning operation may refer to subsequent contents, which are not described herein again.

In some embodiments, since the system configuration information indicates that the local terminal is not configured with the recommendation display function, the system terminal cannot display the application at the fixed display position regardless of whether the system terminal recommends the displayable application to the device terminal. Therefore, whether the current display quantity of the second application is zero or not does not need to be judged, and the fact that the home terminal is not configured with the recommended display function can be determined according to the system configuration information.

However, if the configured number of the fixed display bits is zero and the current display number of the second application is not zero, at this time, although the device side is not configured with the fixed display bits, the system side still recommends the displayable applications to the device side. At this point, the application switching zone still needs to expose the second application.

To this end, in this scenario, the controller is further configured to: under the condition that a first template interface comprising page turning display positions is loaded in an application switching area, acquiring the current display quantity of second applications in system configuration information; and if the current display number of the second application is not zero, displaying the icon of the first application and the icon of the second application at the page turning display position.

When the configuration number of the fixed display bits is zero, the device side is not configured with the fixed display bits, but the application recommended by the system side exists, at this time, the system recommended application can be displayed in the page turning display bits, that is, the page turning display area simultaneously displays the icon of the system recommended application and the icon of the locally installed application.

In some embodiments, the controller, in executing the presenting of the icon of the first application and the icon of the second application in the page turning presentation area, is further configured to:

and step 21, acquiring the configuration number of the page turning display bits and the total application number of the designated applications in the system configuration information, wherein the designated applications comprise a first application and a second application which needs to be displayed at the page turning display bits.

And step 22, if the configuration number of the page turning display bits is greater than or equal to the total application number of the designated application, sequentially loading the icon of the second application and the icon of the first application by each page turning display bit.

And 23, if the configured number of the page turning display bits is less than the total application number of the designated applications, generating an application list based on the sequence of the second application and the first application.

And 24, displaying the specified applications corresponding to the total number of the applications in the application list at the page turning display positions, and displaying page turning buttons at two sides of the application switching area, wherein the page turning buttons are used for triggering the specified applications in the application list to be displayed at the page turning display positions.

When the system recommendation application and the local installation application need to be simultaneously displayed by the page turning display area, the number of the page turning display positions configured for the page turning display area is limited due to the limited length of the page turning display area, so that the number of the applications capable of being displayed is limited, and therefore, whether the page turning display area needs to be displayed in a page turning mode needs to be judged.

The page turning display area comprises page turning display bits used for displaying application icons, the configuration number of the page turning display bits and the total application number of the designated applications are obtained, and the designated applications comprise a first application (a local installation application) and a second application (a system recommendation application) which needs to be displayed in the page turning display area. If the configuration number of the page turning display positions is larger than or equal to the total application number of the designated applications, the page turning display area can display all the system recommended applications and all the locally installed applications which need to be displayed at the same time, the system recommended applications and the locally installed applications are displayed in the page turning display positions of the page turning display area, and at the moment, page turning buttons do not need to be displayed.

The application icon display sequence of each page turning display position in the page turning display area is sorted according to the sequence of the system recommended application and the local installation application, namely, the system recommended application is displayed firstly, and then the local installation application is displayed, at the moment, the page turning display position at the front end of the left side of the position column loads the icon of the second application firstly, the next page turning display position loads the icon of the next second application, after the icon of the second application is displayed completely, the icon of the first application is loaded by the next page turning display position, and so on, until the content is displayed on each page turning display position in the page turning display area.

For the system recommended applications with the same attribute, the sequence order is to display the applications recommended to be installed by the system first and then display the applications recommended to be used by the system; for locally installed applications with the same attribute, the sorting order may be the order of the most recent installation, the order of the most recent use by the user, the order of the historical frequent use, the order of the current high popularity, or the application of the order of the higher commercial value.

Referring to fig. 3 (b), in the case that the configured number of the fixed presentation bits is zero and the currently presented number of the second application is not zero, for example, if the system recommends 2 applications and 4 locally installed applications, the total application number of the specified applications is 6. And if the configuration number of the page turning display bits is 7, two system recommendation applications X1-X2 and four local installation applications B1-B4 can be respectively displayed in the page turning display area, and the last display bit is empty.

In some embodiments, if the configuration number of the page turning display bits is less than the total application number of the designated applications, it indicates that the page turning display area cannot simultaneously display all the system recommendation applications and the locally installed applications that need to be displayed, and at this time, a page turning manner needs to be adopted, and then the system recommendation applications and the locally installed applications are displayed in the page turning display area.

In order to perform page turning display, an application list is generated based on the sequence of the system recommended applications and the locally installed applications, designated applications corresponding to the total number of the applications are selected from the application list and displayed in a page turning display area, and other applications in the application list are not displayed for the time being. In order to facilitate page turning operation, page turning buttons are displayed on two sides of the application switching area and are used for triggering specified applications in the application list to be displayed in the page turning display area.

In some embodiments, the generation order of the application list may adopt the application presentation order of the page turning display area described above.

Referring to fig. 3 (c), in the case that the configured number of the fixed presentation bits is zero and the currently presented number of the second applications is not, for example, if the system recommends 4 applications and 6 locally installed applications, the total application number of the designated applications is 10. And if the configuration number of the page turning display bits is 7, the generated application list comprises four system recommendation applications X1-X4 and six local installation applications B1-B6. During display, the first 7 applications in the application list, namely four system recommendation applications X1-X4 and three local installation applications B1-B3 are selected and displayed in seven page turning display positions of a page turning display area respectively. At the same time, a right page-turning button is displayed on the right side of the application switching area to prompt the user that the page can be turned left to view other applications in the application list. And after the page turning for the left is executed once, displaying a left page turning button on the left side of the application switching area to realize the page turning for the right.

In some embodiments, since the page turning display region simultaneously displays the system recommended application and the locally installed application, in order to facilitate distinguishing between application icons of two different attributes, a gap mark may be displayed in the application switching region, as shown in fig. 3 (b) and (c), the gap mark being located between the system recommended application and the locally installed application. When page turning operation is carried out based on the first template interface, the interval marks move along with all application icons in the page turning display positions.

S3, if the system configuration information represents that the local terminal is configured with the recommended display function, loading a second template interface comprising a fixed display position and a page turning display position in the application switching area, displaying an icon of the second application in the fixed display position, displaying an icon of the first application in the page turning display position, and when receiving the moving instruction, keeping the icon in the fixed display position still, and moving the icon in the page turning display position to the direction indicated by the moving instruction.

The method includes the steps that a recommended display function configured at a home terminal is determined according to system configuration information, the fact that a device terminal is configured with a fixed display area is described, the fixed display area is configured with a plurality of fixed display positions, the system terminal generates applications recommended to the device terminal, and the device terminal needs to display a first application and a second application at the same time in an application switching area. Therefore, a second template interface comprising a fixed display position and a page turning display position is loaded in the application switching area, so that the icon of the second application is displayed in the fixed display position, and the icon of the first application is displayed in the page turning display position. For example, the system recommended application is displayed in the fixed display area, and the locally installed application is displayed in the page turning display area.

In some embodiments, when the system configuration information represents that the home terminal is configured with the recommendation display function, the application switching area needs to simultaneously display the system recommendation application and the locally installed application, at this time, the application switching area loads a second template interface including a fixed display bit and a page-turning display bit, so as to further distinguish two applications with different attributes, an interval mark may be displayed in the application switching area, and the interval mark is located between the fixed display bit and the page-turning display bit. The system recommendation application and the local installation application are separated by using the interval mark, so that the user can quickly and accurately select the application in which the user is interested. When page turning operation is carried out based on the second template interface, the fixed display positions and the interval marks of the fixed display area do not move together with the page turning display positions in the page turning display area.

In some embodiments, when the total number of applications that the application switching area needs to display exceeds the total configured number of the fixed display bits and the page turning display bits configured in the application switching area, the previous or subsequent application icons can be viewed in a page turning manner. For example, when the left page turning button is triggered, a movement instruction for turning a page to the right is generated, the page turning display bit in the second template interface responds to the movement instruction, and the fixed display bit does not respond to the movement instruction. Therefore, the application icon in the fixed display position does not move with the movement instruction, and the icon in the page turning display position moves to the direction indicated by the movement instruction, namely the application icon on the page turning display position moves to the right by one position in whole. And if the right page turning button is triggered, generating a moving instruction for turning a page to the left, and at the moment, moving the whole application icon on the page turning display position to the left by one position. When the page turning operation is performed based on the second template interface, the specific implementation process may refer to subsequent contents, which is not described herein again.

In some embodiments, the number of fixed display bits and page flip display bits of the application switching zone configuration is limited, such that the number of displays of system recommended applications and the number of displays of locally installed applications are limited. In order to facilitate that the total number of the recommended applications and/or the locally installed applications in the system exceeds the total number of the display bits in the application switching area, the rest of the applications which are not displayed in the application switching area can be viewed in a page turning mode.

Thus, the controller, in executing the icon presenting the second application in the fixed display position and the icon presenting the first application in the page flip display position, is further configured to:

step 311, when the second template interface including the fixed display bits and the page-turning display bits is loaded in the application switching area, acquiring the configuration number of the fixed display bits and the current display number of the second application in the system configuration information.

And 312, if the current display quantity of the second application is less than or equal to the configuration quantity of the fixed display positions, displaying the icon of the second application at the fixed display positions, and displaying the icon of the first application at the page turning display positions.

Step 313, if the current display number of the second application is greater than the configuration number of the fixed display positions, calculating the excess number of the recommended applications, displaying the second application corresponding to the configuration number of the fixed display positions on the fixed display positions, and displaying the icon of the first application and the icon of the second application corresponding to the excess number of the recommended applications on the page turning display positions.

And when the current display quantity of the second application is not zero, the second template interface loaded by the application switching area comprises a fixed display area and a page turning display area.

In some embodiments, if the current display number of the second application is less than or equal to the configuration number of the fixed display positions, which indicates that the fixed display area can completely display all the system recommended applications, the system recommended applications are sequentially displayed in each fixed display position of the fixed display area, and the locally installed applications are sequentially displayed in each page turning display position of the page turning display area.

Fig. 4 illustrates a presentation effect diagram of an application switching zone when a home terminal is configured with a recommendation presentation function according to some embodiments. In a scenario where the number of configurations of the fixed presentation bits is not zero and the number of configurations of the second application is not zero, see (a) in fig. 4, for example, if the number of configurations of the fixed presentation bits of the fixed display area is 3 and the number of configurations of the system recommended application is 3, three system recommended applications X1-X3 may be completely presented in the fixed display area. The page turn display is configured with four page turn display bits to present the corresponding locally installed applications, e.g., the page turn display displays four locally installed applications B1-B4.

In some embodiments, if the current display number of the second application is greater than the configuration number of the fixed display bits, it indicates that the fixed display area may not completely display all the system recommendation applications, at this time, only the system recommendation applications of the number corresponding to the configuration number of the fixed display bits are displayed on each fixed display bit of the fixed display area, then the interval mark is displayed, and then the excess system recommendation applications are displayed on the page-turning display area, that is, the excess system recommendation applications are displayed on the page-turning display bits.

Specifically, the configuration number of the fixed display positions is subtracted from the current display number of the system recommended applications to obtain the recommended application excess number, so that the system recommended applications corresponding to the configuration number of the fixed display positions are displayed in the fixed display area, and the locally installed applications and the system recommended applications corresponding to the recommended application excess number are displayed in the page turning display area.

Referring to (b) in fig. 4, for example, if the number of the fixed display bits of the fixed display area is 3 and the current number of the system recommended applications is 5, the recommended application excess number is calculated to be 2. At this time, the first three system recommendation applications X1-X3 are displayed on the three fixed display positions of the fixed display area, and the last two system recommendation applications X4-X5 are displayed on the first two page turning display positions of the page turning display area.

At this time, because the page turning display area needs to display the system recommendation application and the local installation application at the same time, in order to avoid display confusion, the excess system recommendation application can be placed at the front-end page turning display position of the page turning display area, and the local installation application can be placed at the rear end of the system recommendation application.

In some embodiments, when each fixed display bit displays an icon corresponding to the second application, the display order may be displayed according to the magnitude order of the heat value of the second application; when each page turning display position displays the icon corresponding to the first application, the display sequence can be displayed according to the historical use time of the first application. The display mode is applied to a scene that the second template interface is loaded in the application switching area.

In some embodiments, when the application icon presentation is performed, the controller is further configured to, when executing the presentation of the icon of the second application in the fixed presentation position and the presentation of the icon of the first application in the page turning presentation position:

step 321, when the application switching area loads the second template interface including the fixed display bit and the page turning display bit, acquiring a heat value of the second application and a historical use time of the first application.

And 322, sequentially displaying the corresponding icons of the second applications on each fixed display position according to the magnitude sequence of the heat value of each second application.

And 323, sequentially displaying the icons of the corresponding first applications on each page turning display position according to the time sequence of the historical use time of each first application from late to early.

When the application switching area loads the second template interface, the second application and the first application can be simultaneously displayed in the second template interface.

When the icons of the second applications are displayed on the fixed display positions, the icons can be displayed according to the heat value of each second application, namely the heat values of the second applications are sorted from high to low, and the icon of the second application with the highest heat value is displayed on the first fixed display position on the left side; the second most fixed display bit shows the icon of the second application with the next highest heat value, and so on.

And when the page turning display position displays the icon of the second application and the icon of the first application, sequentially displaying the icons of the second application on the page turning display position at the front end according to the magnitude sequence of the heat value. And after the icon of the second application is displayed, continuously displaying the icon of the first application. Displaying the icon display of the first application according to historical use time, and displaying the icon of the first application which is used most recently at an idle leftmost page turning display position, namely at the right side of the icon of the second application; the icon of the first application used earlier is shown in the next free page-turning display position, i.e. to the right of the icon of the first application shown previously, and so on for the other second application icons.

In some embodiments, if the number of applications that the page turning display area needs to display currently exceeds the configured number of page turning display bits of the page turning display area, a page turning operation needs to be performed on the page turning display area. The configuration number of the page turning display positions of the page turning display area is the maximum application number which can be displayed by the page turning display area at the same time.

Thus, the controller, in executing the presenting the system recommendation application and the locally installed application in the page turn display area, is further configured to:

step 331, obtaining the configuration number of the page turning display bits in the system configuration information and the total application number of the designated applications, where the designated applications include a first application and a second application that needs to be displayed in the page turning display area.

And 332, if the configured number of the page turning display bits is greater than or equal to the total application number of the designated application, sequentially loading the icon of the second application and the icon of the first application by each page turning display bit.

And 333, if the configured number of the page turning display bits is smaller than the total application number of the designated applications, sequentially generating an application list by the second application and the first application.

And 334, displaying the specified applications corresponding to the total number of the applications in the application list at the page turning display positions, and displaying page turning buttons on two sides of the application switching area, wherein the page turning buttons are used for triggering the specified applications in the application list to be displayed at the page turning display positions.

And when determining whether the application switching area needs to execute page turning operation, acquiring the configuration number of page turning display bits of the page turning display area and the total application number of the specified application. If the total application number of the designated applications is larger than the configuration number of the page turning display bits, the page turning display area is not enough to display all the displayable applications, and page turning operation is required.

The designated applications comprise local installation applications and system recommendation applications needing to be displayed in the page turning display area, and the system recommendation applications needing to be displayed in the page turning display area are system recommendation applications corresponding to the number of recommended applications except for the recommended applications displayed in the fixed display area in all the system recommendation applications.

When the page turning operation needs to be performed on the page turning display area, the implementation process of displaying each attribute application in the page turning display area may refer to the contents shown in step 21 to step 24 provided in the foregoing embodiment, and details are not described here again.

When the page turning display area needs to display all displayable application icons through page turning operation, displaying the applications corresponding to the total number of the displayable applications in the page turning display area according to the sequence in the application list, and displaying page turning buttons on two sides of the application switching area, wherein the page turning buttons are used for triggering the applications in the application list to be displayed on page turning display positions of the page turning display area.

In some embodiments, the scenario that the icon of the second application is displayed on the page-turning display position includes two cases, one case is that when the application switching area loads the first template interface, at this time, the configuration number of the fixed display positions is zero, but the second application recommended by the system exists, and therefore, the second application recommended by the system and the first application need to be displayed on the page-turning display position at the same time. The other is that when the application switching area loads the second template interface, at this time, the configuration number of the fixed display bits is not zero, and the number of the second applications recommended by the system exceeds the configuration number of the fixed display bits, so that the second applications that exceed the fixed display bits and the first applications need to be simultaneously displayed on the page-turning display bits.

In some embodiments, when the application switching area loads the second template interface, the controller is further configured to, when executing the displaying of the icon of the first application and the icon of the second application in the page turning display area:

step 341, loading a second template interface including a fixed display bit and a page turning display bit in the application switching area, and acquiring a heat value of the second application and historical use time of the first application when an icon of the second application which needs to be displayed at the page turning display bit exists.

And 342, sequentially displaying the corresponding icons of the second applications on the page turning display positions at the front end of the bit column according to the magnitude sequence of the heat value of each second application, and sequentially displaying the corresponding icons of the first applications on the page turning display positions at the rear end of the bit column according to the time sequence of the historical service time of each first application from late to early, wherein the icons of the first applications are displayed on the right side of the icons of the second applications.

When the application switching area loads the second template interface, the second application and the first application can be simultaneously displayed in the second template interface. If the configuration number of the fixed display positions is smaller than the current display number of the second applications, displaying icons of the second applications in corresponding number on the fixed display positions, and displaying icons of the first applications and other icons of the second applications which are not displayed on the fixed display positions on the page turning display positions.

When the icons of the second applications are displayed on the fixed display positions, the icons can be displayed according to the heat value of each second application, namely the heat values of the second applications are sorted from high to low, and the icon of the second application with the highest heat value is displayed on the first fixed display position on the left side; the second most fixed display position shows the icon of the second application next in heat value, and so on.

In some embodiments, when the first template interface is loaded in the application switching area, the controller is further configured to, in executing the displaying of the icon of the first application and the icon of the second application in the page turning display area:

step 351, loading a first template interface comprising a page turning display position in the application switching area, and acquiring the heat value of the second application and the historical use time of the first application when an icon of the second application which needs to be displayed at the page turning display position exists.

And 352, sequentially displaying the corresponding icons of the second applications on the page turning display positions at the front ends of the bit columns according to the magnitude sequence of the heat value of each second application, and sequentially displaying the corresponding icons of the first applications on the page turning display positions at the rear ends of the bit columns according to the time sequence of the historical service time of each first application from late to early, wherein the icons of the first applications are displayed on the right sides of the icons of the second applications.

When the first template interface is loaded in the application switching area, the icons of the second application and the first application are simultaneously displayed in the second template interface by using the page turning display position. The content of the foregoing embodiment can be referred to for the implementation manner of displaying the icon of the first application and the icon of the second application on the page turning display position, and details are not described here.

In some embodiments, the presentation order of the first application and the presentation order of the second application, and the order of generating the application list may also adopt other sorting manners, which is not specifically limited herein.

In some embodiments, when a page turning operation needs to be performed on an application displayed in the page turning display area, page turning buttons on two sides of the application switching area can be triggered. And the page turning action can trigger the application to move a position and can also trigger the application of one page to move the position integrally.

In some embodiments, in a scenario where the application is controlled to move one presentation position per activation of the page flip button, the controller is further configured to:

step 411, when the designated application which is not displayed in the page turning display position in the application list is viewed, receiving an operation on a right page turning button, and moving an icon of a next designated application which is positioned in the last displayed application in the application list to the left to display the icon in the last page turning display position, wherein the last displayed application is the application displayed in the last page turning display position in the page turning display area.

Step 412, receiving an operation on the left page turning button, and moving an icon of a specified application located before the first display application in the application list to the right to display the icon at the first page turning display position, where the first display application is an application displayed at the first page turning display position in the page turning display area.

When the applications displayed in the respective page turning display positions are not the applications in which the user is interested, the user may trigger a page turning button to view the applications located in the application list that are not yet displayed in the page turning display positions.

When the page turning operation is executed on the application icon of the page turning display position, the method can be applied to a scene that the application switching area only displays the page turning display area, namely a scene of loading the first template interface, and can also be applied to a scene that the application switching area simultaneously displays the fixed display area and the page turning display area, namely a scene of loading the second template interface.

FIG. 5 illustrates a presentation graph of a page flip display area during a page flip interaction, in accordance with some embodiments. Referring to fig. 5 (a), for example, when the system recommends that the application is zero, the application switching area loads the first template interface that only includes the page turning display area, and the page turning display area is configured with a plurality of page turning display bits. If the configured number of the page turning display bits is 7 and the total number of the current display applications is 10, generating an application list according to the 10 applications, and displaying the top 7 applications B1-B7 in the application list in the page turning display area.

Meanwhile, page turning buttons are respectively displayed on the left side and the right side of the application switching area, only the right page turning button is displayed on the right side at the initial moment, and the left page turning button is displayed on the left side after page turning is performed once. And when the page needs to be turned left, triggering the right page turning button to generate a page turning left instruction. And responding to a left page turning instruction, controlling all the applications displayed in the current page turning display position to be integrally positioned at a left position, wherein at the moment, the first application icon on the first page turning display position of the page turning display area is hidden, and the tail display position has a vacant position. And simultaneously, selecting an application icon to be displayed from the applications which are not displayed in the application list, wherein the application to be displayed is a next appointed application of the last displayed application which is originally displayed at the last page turning display position, and moving the icon of the next appointed application to the left by one position to be displayed at the last page turning display position.

Referring to fig. 5 (B), when the right page turning button is triggered, all currently displayed application icons in the page turning display area move to the left, the application B1 located at the first position is hidden, and an icon of a next designated application B8, which is originally displayed in the last displayed application of the last page turning display position, is selected from the application list and displayed at the last position, i.e., the last page turning display position, in the page turning display area. At this point, the locally installed application presented in the flip display area is B2-B8.

If the right page-turning button is again activated, as shown in fig. 5 (c), the application B2 which will be first located is hidden and the last designated application B9 selected from the list of applications is displayed in the last place of the page-turning display area. At this point, the locally installed application presented in the flip display area is B3-B9.

If the user wants to review the application that has been flipped in the state shown in fig. 5 (c), the left page-turning button is triggered to generate a right page-turning instruction. In response to the page right command, all applications B3-B9 controlling the page turn display bits move to the right by one position, at which time the non-bit application B9 on the last page turn display bit of the page turn display area is hidden and a null occurs on the first display bit. Meanwhile, an application to be displayed is selected from the applications which are not displayed in the application list, the application to be displayed is a previous designated application B2 located in the head display application B3 which is originally displayed in the head page turning display position, and the previous designated application B2 is moved to the right and displayed in the head page turning display position. At this time, the locally installed application presented in the page turn display area is B2-B8, returning to the state shown in FIG. 5 (B).

In some embodiments, when only the page-turning display bit is displayed in the application switching area, and the system recommendation application and the locally installed application are simultaneously displayed by using the page-turning display bit, the process of performing the page-turning operation may refer to the process shown in fig. 5, which is not described herein again. If the interval mark exists in the page turning display area under the scene, the interval mark moves along with the interval mark when the page is turned.

FIG. 6 illustrates a presentation diagram of an application switching zone in performing a page flip interaction, in accordance with some embodiments. Referring to fig. 6 (a), for example, when the fixed display position is not zero and the system recommended application is not zero, the application switching area loads the second template interface including the fixed display area and the page turning display area, the fixed display area is configured with a plurality of fixed display positions, and the page turning display area is configured with a plurality of page turning display positions. If the configuration number of the fixed display bits is 3 and the current number of the recommended applications of the system is 5, the calculated number of the exceeding recommended applications is 2. At this time, icons of the first three system recommended applications (system recommended applications X1, X2, and X3) are displayed on the three fixed display positions of the fixed display area, and icons of the latter two system recommended applications (system recommended applications X4 and X5) are displayed on the first two page turning display positions of the page turning display area.

If the configured number of the page turning display bits of the page turning display area is 4 and the number of the local installation applications needing to be displayed is 5, the total application number of the current display applications is calculated to be 7, wherein the total application number of the current display applications comprises two exceeding system recommendation applications (system recommendation applications X4 and X5) and five local installation applications (B1-B5).

An application list is generated according to the two beyond system recommendation applications (system recommendation applications X4 and X5) and the five local installation applications, and the first 4 applications in the application list are displayed on the four page turning display positions of the page turning display area, namely the system recommendation application X4, the system recommendation application X5, the local installation application B1 and the local installation application B2 are displayed on the page turning display positions.

Meanwhile, page turning buttons are respectively displayed on the left side and the right side of the application switching area. Referring to fig. 6 (B), when the right page turning button is triggered, the three application icons in the fixed display area are not moved, all the applications currently displayed in the page turning display area move to the left, the system recommended application X4 located at the first position in the page turning display area is hidden, and the last designated application B3, which is originally displayed at the last page turning display position and is the last displayed application in the page turning display area, is selected from the application list and displayed at the last position, that is, the last page turning display position. At this time, the applications displayed in the page turning display area are the system recommended application X5, the local installation application B1, the local installation application B2, and the local installation application B3, respectively.

If the right page turn button is triggered again, and all applications currently presented in the page turn display area are moved to the left again as shown in fig. 6 (c), the system recommended application X5 that will be first in the page turn display area is hidden and the last installed application B4 selected from the list of applications is displayed in the page turn display area. At this time, the applications displayed in the page turning display area are the local installation application B1, the local installation application B2, the local installation application B3, and the local installation application B4, respectively.

If the user wants to review the application that has been flipped in the state shown in fig. 6 (c), the left page-turning button is triggered to generate a right page-turning instruction. In response to the page right command, all applications B1-B4 controlling the paging display area move to the right by one position, at which time the non-bit application B4 on the last paging display bit of the paging display area is hidden and a null bit appears on the first display bit. Meanwhile, an application to be displayed is selected from the applications which are not displayed in the application list, the application to be displayed is a previous designated application X5 (system recommendation application) located in the head display application B1 which is originally displayed in the head page turning display position, and the previous designated application X5 is moved to the right and displayed in the head page turning display position in a position. At this time, the applications presented in the page turning display area are the system recommended application X5, the local install application B1, the local install application B2, and the local install application B3, and are restored to the state shown in fig. 6 (B). The remaining page flip states can be cycled as described above.

In some embodiments, in a scenario where each time the page flip button is triggered to control the entire page application to move the presentation position in its entirety, the controller is further configured to:

step 421, when the specified application which is not displayed in the page turning display position in the application list is viewed, receiving the operation of a right page turning button, and displaying an application icon which is positioned in the page turning display position and corresponds to a page next to the page where the application is currently displayed in the page turning display position in the application list in the page turning display position;

and 422, receiving the operation of the left page turning button, and displaying an application icon corresponding to a page which is positioned in the page turning display position and is before the page of the currently displayed application in the application list in the page turning display position.

When the applications displayed in the respective page turning display positions are not the applications in which the user is interested, the user may trigger a page turning button to view the applications located in the application list that are not yet displayed in the page turning display area. When the page turning operation is performed on the application icon displayed in the page turning display area, the scene of the first template interface is loaded, the method can be applied to the scene that the application switching area only displays the page turning display area, and can also be applied to the scene that the application switching area simultaneously displays the fixed display area and the page turning display area, namely the scene of the second template interface is loaded.

FIG. 7 illustrates another presentation diagram of a page flip display area during a page flip interaction according to some embodiments. Referring to fig. 7 (a), for example, when the system recommends that the application is zero, the application switching area loads the first template interface that only includes the page turning display area, and the page turning display area is configured with a plurality of page turning display bits. If the configuration number of the page turning display bits is 7 and the total number of the currently displayed locally installed applications is 12, generating an application list according to the 12 applications, and performing page division on the 12 locally installed applications according to the configuration number of the page turning display bits, namely dividing the first 7 locally installed applications B1-B7 into a first page and dividing the last 5 locally installed applications B8-B12 into a second page. At the initial presentation, the first 7 applications B1-B7 corresponding to the first page in the application list are displayed at the respective page turning display positions.

Meanwhile, page turning buttons are respectively displayed on the left side and the right side of the application switching area, only the right page turning button is displayed on the right side at the initial moment, and the left page turning button is displayed on the left side after page turning is performed once. And when the page needs to be turned left, triggering the right page turning button to generate a page turning left instruction. And responding to a left page turning instruction, controlling all the applications displayed in the current page turning display position to turn left by one page, at the moment, completely hiding all the application icons on all the page turning display positions in the page turning display area, simultaneously selecting the application of the next page from the applications which are not displayed in the application list, and moving and displaying all the application icons of the next page to the left at all the page turning display positions.

Referring to fig. 9 (b), if the user triggers the application X2 of the fixed display area, if the application X2 is the "K song" application, the application name "K song" and the "brief content" are displayed below the corresponding recommended presentation position.

In some embodiments, in order to better distinguish the applications displayed in the current application switching area and indicate the user operation feedback, three states of normal, focus-obtaining and left-behind are defined, and corresponding identification patterns are respectively added to corresponding display positions to indicate that the applications on the display positions of the user are focused.

When interaction is carried out based on the application switching area, a user operates a handle or a head touch point to move a control focus to a certain application, an identification pattern representing a focus obtaining state is added to a display position where the application is located, and the identification pattern representing the focus obtaining state can be in a highlight form. And if the display positions of other applications do not obtain the control focus, adding the identification pattern representing the normal state for each navigation button, wherein the identification pattern representing the normal state can be in a transparent form. If the control focus moves to the display position of other applications after the application obtaining the control focus is triggered, adding an identification pattern representing a legacy state to the display position of the application performing the triggering operation, where the identification pattern of the legacy state may be a color identification or a transparent rectangle with a border.

FIG. 10 illustrates a presentation of an application switch zone upon interaction, in accordance with some embodiments. When a user operates a display position where a control focus is moved to a certain application, highlighting (an identification pattern of a focus obtaining state) to indicate that the current application obtains the focus; if the focus is not clicked and left, the normal state (the identification pattern of the normal state) is recovered. For example, referring to (a) in fig. 10, when the user moves the control focus to the "love art" application, the "love art" application is highlighted while the application information is presented, and the presentation positions of the remaining applications are in a normal state.

Referring to (b) of fig. 10, if the user performs a trigger operation on the "love art" application that gets focus, the application is started. And then, the user operates the control focus to move to the 'Karaoke' application, the 'Aiqi art' application losing the control focus is in a legacy state, an identification pattern representing the legacy state, namely a transparent rectangle with a frame, is added to a display position where the 'Aiqi art' application is located, and display of application information is cancelled. Meanwhile, an identification pattern representing the focusing state is added to the display position where the current Karaoke application obtaining the control focus is located, namely highlighted, and the application information is displayed.

In some embodiments, when determining whether a display position of an application obtains a control focus, it may be determined whether light emitted from a handle operated by a user collides with the display position of the application. The collision operation is to determine whether the coordinates of the line intersect with the coordinates of the display position where the application is located in the application switching area, if so, the line collides with the display position where the application is located, and the display position where the application is located is determined to obtain the control focus. At this time, if the user clicks an ok key of the handle, a trigger operation may be performed to start the application.

In some embodiments, the applications exposed by the application switching zone are typically exposed in the form of application icons. However, the application icon is monotonous, so that the three-dimensional model and the animation can be issued through the system end. When the user moves the control focus to a certain application, the application icon, the name and the application information are shown in the form of animation, or only a single model animation is shown, so that the user experience is improved by displaying different animations through different models and different states.

Therefore, when the virtual user interface is displayed, the application switching area is divided, the applications with the same attribute are displayed in the same area, so that the applications with different attributes are displayed in a differentiated manner, the operation requirements and the user requirements can be considered, the user can conveniently select interaction in a purposeful manner, confusion is avoided, and the interaction experience is better.
