Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings in combination with the detailed description. It should be understood that the description is intended for purposes of illustration only and is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. Moreover, in the following description, descriptions of well-known structures and techniques are omitted so as to not unnecessarily obscure the concepts of the present application.
In the description of the present application, it is noted that the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
In addition, the technical features mentioned in the different embodiments of the present application described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
As shown in fig. 1, in a first aspect of the embodiments of the present application, there is provided a printer including:
a printer body 100;
the detection unit 200 is arranged on the printer body 100 and used for detecting user gestures moving along a specific direction within a preset range of the printer;
and a control unit (not shown in the figure) disposed on the printer body 100, and configured to determine a moving direction of the user gesture, and control the printer body 100 to execute a corresponding instruction according to the determined moving direction of the user gesture.
In a specific application, the printer according to the embodiment of the application can detect the gesture of the user, and determine the instruction to be input by the user according to the detected gesture of the user, so that the instruction is used for replacing key operation, the operation is more convenient, and the improvement of user experience is facilitated.
Wherein, different moving directions of the user gesture correspond to different instructions respectively. For example, when moving in the first direction, the control unit controls the printer body 100 to execute the first command according to the detection signal, and when moving in the second direction, the control unit controls the printer body 100 to execute the first command according to the detection signal. In this embodiment, when the user uses a gesture, the palm may be opened or held, which is not limited in this embodiment.
In some embodiments, the detecting unit 200 is disposed on the upper surface of the printer body, and the preset range of the printer is above the printer body 100. In concrete application, the range is preset as the printer with the top of printer body 100, and the maloperation that produces when the personnel all around of printer flow can be avoided.
In some embodiments, the user gesture is one of a unidirectional horizontal movement and a reciprocating movement. For example, the unidirectional horizontal movement may be a movement from the front of the printer body 100 to the back of the printer body 100, a movement from the back of the printer body 100 to the front of the printer body 100, a movement from the left of the printer body 100 to the right of the printer body 100, a movement from the right of the printer body 100 to the left of the printer body 100, a movement from the front of the printer body 100 to the right of the printer body 100, a movement from the left of the printer body 100 to the front of the printer body 100, or a movement from the right of the printer body 100 to the front of the printer body 100. The reciprocating movement is a reverse operation added on the basis of the unidirectional horizontal movement, for example, the movement is performed from the front side of the printer body 100 to the back side of the printer body 100, and then the movement is performed from the back side of the printer body 100 to the front side of the printer body 100, and accordingly, other unidirectional horizontal movements can be extended to the reciprocating movement. In specific application, the range of installation and detection is limited, meanwhile, in order to avoid misoperation, the moving direction of unidirectional horizontal movement is small, and the number of instructions which can be executed by the control unit is limited.
In some embodiments, the detection unit 200 is one of a proximity sensor and an infrared sensor.
In some embodiments, the detection unit 200 comprises at least a first sensor 201 and a second sensor 202; the user gesture is a movement between the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202. Specifically, the detection unit 200 includes a plurality of proximity sensors or a plurality of infrared sensors, and in a specific implementation process, the control unit may determine the moving direction of the user gesture through sensing signals sequentially formed by the plurality of sensors. As shown in fig. 2, in the direction of the straight line where the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202 are located, the palm sequentially passes over the first sensor 201 and over the second sensor 202, the first sensor 201 forms a sensing signal earlier than the second sensor 202, and the user gesture is moving from the left side of the printer body 100 to the right side of the printer body 100; as shown in fig. 3, in the direction of the straight line where the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202 are located, the palm sequentially passes over the second sensor 202 and over the first sensor 201, the second sensor 202 forms a sensing signal earlier than the first sensor 201, and the user gesture is moving from the right side of the printer body 100 to the right-left side of the printer body 100.
In some embodiments, the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202 have a predetermined distance therebetween to prevent the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202 from generating signals simultaneously. In a specific application, the proximity of the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202 may cause the user gesture to trigger both sensors at the same time, so that the detection of the moving direction of the user gesture cannot be realized.
As shown in fig. 4, in some embodiments, the detection unit 200 further includes a third sensor 203, and the third sensor 203 is not located on the same straight line with the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202; the user gesture moves between two of the first sensor 201, the second sensor 202, and the third sensor 203. In a specific application, by adding the third sensor 203 out of the straight line where the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202 are located, user gestures can be added between the first sensor 201 and the third sensor 203 and between the second sensor 202 and the third sensor 203, so that the number of instructions can be increased. Correspondingly, under the condition that the detection range allows and does not have interference, the number of gestures of the user can be increased by arranging the sensors in multiple ways, and the use range is improved.
As shown in fig. 5, in some embodiments, the detecting unit 200 further includes a fourth sensor 204, and the fourth sensor 204 is located on the same straight line with the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202. Specifically, the fourth sensor 204 is located on a side of the second sensor 202 far from the first sensor 201, or the fourth sensor 204 is located on a side of the first sensor 201 far from the second sensor 202. In a specific application, by adding the fourth sensor 204 to the straight line where the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202 are located, the moving direction of the user gesture in the reciprocating movement can be increased. For example, when the first sensor 201, the second sensor 202, and the fourth sensor 204 are sequentially arranged, the palm may sequentially pass through the first sensor 201, the second sensor 202, and the fourth sensor 204, and then return to the first sensor 201 or the second sensor 202 from the position of the fourth sensor 204, different moving directions may be implemented according to the position where the palm finally stays, and similarly, the palm may sequentially pass through the fourth sensor 204, the second sensor 202, and the first sensor 201, and then return to the second sensor 202 or the fourth sensor 204 from the position of the first sensor 201.
In some embodiments, the preset instructions of the printer are one of parameter selection, copying, and scanning. Wherein the parameter selection may select resolution, scaling, etc. Illustratively, when the palm moves from above the first sensor 201 to above the second sensor 202, the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202 sequentially form sensing signals, and the control unit may thereby determine that the user gesture is a first unidirectional horizontal movement and control the printer body 100 to perform the resolution selection operation; when the palm moves from above the second sensor 202 to above the first sensor 201, the second sensor 202 and the first sensor 201 sequentially form sensing signals, and the control unit can determine that the user gesture is a second unidirectional horizontal movement and control the printer body 100 to execute a scaling selection operation; when the palm moves from above the first sensor 201 to above the second sensor 202 and then returns from above the second sensor 202 to above the first sensor 201, the control unit can determine that the user gesture is a first reciprocating movement and control the printer body 100 to execute the copying operation; when the palm moves from above the second sensor 202 to above the first sensor 201 and then returns from above the first sensor 201 to above the second sensor 202, the control unit may determine that the user gesture is the second reciprocating movement and control the printer body 100 to perform the scanning operation.
In some optional embodiments, the printer body 100 is provided with a key or an input panel, and the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202 are respectively disposed on two sides of the key or the input panel.
In a second aspect of embodiments of the present application, there is provided a printer control method including the following steps.
And step S1, detecting the user gesture moving along the specific direction within the preset range of the printer.
The detection unit 200 is disposed on the upper surface of the printer body, and the printer is disposed above the printer body 100. In concrete application, the range is preset as the printer with the top of printer body 100, and the maloperation that produces when the personnel all around of printer flow can be avoided.
Wherein the user gesture is one of a unidirectional horizontal movement and a reciprocating movement.
For example, the unidirectional horizontal movement may be a movement from the front of the printer body 100 to the back of the printer body 100, a movement from the back of the printer body 100 to the front of the printer body 100, a movement from the left of the printer body 100 to the right of the printer body 100, a movement from the right of the printer body 100 to the left of the printer body 100, a movement from the front of the printer body 100 to the right of the printer body 100, a movement from the left of the printer body 100 to the front of the printer body 100, or a movement from the right of the printer body 100 to the front of the printer body 100. The reciprocating movement is a reverse operation added on the basis of the unidirectional horizontal movement, for example, the reciprocating movement is performed from the front side of the printer body 100 to the back side of the printer body 100, and then from the back side of the printer body 100 to the front side of the printer body 100.
And step S2, determining the moving direction of the user gesture.
The user gesture may be detected by the detection unit 200 including a plurality of proximity sensors or infrared sensors, and the moving direction of the user gesture may be determined by the sequence of the sensing signals of the plurality of sensors.
Specifically, the detection unit 200 includes at least a first sensor 201 and a second sensor 202; the user gesture is a movement between the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202. Specifically, the detection unit 200 includes a plurality of proximity sensors or a plurality of infrared sensors, and in a specific implementation process, the control unit may determine the moving direction of the user gesture through sensing signals sequentially formed by the plurality of sensors.
Optionally, the detection unit 200 further includes a third sensor 203, and the third sensor 203 is not located on the same straight line with the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202; the user gesture moves between two of the first sensor 201, the second sensor 202, and the third sensor 203.
In a specific application, by adding the third sensor 203 out of the straight line where the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202 are located, user gestures can be added between the first sensor 201 and the third sensor 203 and between the second sensor 202 and the third sensor 203, so that the number of instructions can be increased. Correspondingly, under the condition that the detection range allows and does not have interference, the number of gestures of the user can be increased by arranging the sensors in multiple ways, and the use range is improved.
Optionally, the detection unit 200 further includes a fourth sensor 204, and the fourth sensor 204 is located on the same straight line as the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202.
Specifically, the fourth sensor 204 is located on a side of the second sensor 202 away from the first sensor 201, or the fourth sensor 204 is located on a side of the first sensor 201 away from the second sensor 202. In a specific application, by adding the fourth sensor 204 to the straight line where the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202 are located, the moving direction of the user gesture in the reciprocating movement can be increased. For example, when the first sensor 201, the second sensor 202, and the fourth sensor 204 are sequentially arranged, the palm may sequentially pass through the first sensor 201, the second sensor 202, and the fourth sensor 204, and then return to the first sensor 201 or the second sensor 202 from the position of the fourth sensor 204, different moving directions may be implemented according to the position where the palm finally stays, and similarly, the palm may sequentially pass through the fourth sensor 204, the second sensor 202, and the first sensor 201, and then return to the second sensor 202 or the fourth sensor 204 from the position of the first sensor 201.
And step S3, controlling the printer body 100 to execute a corresponding instruction according to the determined moving direction of the user gesture.
The preset instruction of the printer is one of parameter selection, copying and scanning, and the parameter selection can select resolution, scaling and the like.
Illustratively, when the palm moves from above the first sensor 201 to above the second sensor 202, the first sensor 201 and the second sensor 202 sequentially form sensing signals, and the control unit may thereby determine that the user gesture is a first unidirectional horizontal movement and control the printer body 100 to perform the resolution selection operation; when the palm moves from above the second sensor 202 to above the first sensor 201, the second sensor 202 and the first sensor 201 sequentially form sensing signals, and the control unit can determine that the user gesture is a second unidirectional horizontal movement and control the printer body 100 to execute a scaling selection operation; when the palm moves from above the first sensor 201 to above the second sensor 202 and then returns from above the second sensor 202 to above the first sensor 201, the control unit can determine that the gesture of the user is a first reciprocating movement and control the printer body 100 to execute the copying operation; when the palm moves from above the second sensor 202 to above the first sensor 201 and then returns from above the first sensor 201 to above the second sensor 202, the control unit may determine that the user gesture is the second reciprocating movement and control the printer body 100 to perform the scanning operation.
