Abstract

The remote-control (1) has a navigation button (2), e.g. designed for operation by the thumb, provided with an integrated fingerprint sensor (3) for identifying the user upon each new operation of the navigation button and transmission by the remote-control.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf Navigationstasten für Fernsteuerungen - insbesondere im TV-Bereich.The invention relates to navigation buttons for remote controls - especially in the TV area.

Um den Benutzer z. B. einer TV-Fernsteuerung eindeutig identifizieren zu können, weist diese eine Navigationstaste auf, in deren Griffmulde ein Fingerabdrucksensor integriert ist.To the user z. B. clearly identify a TV remote control To be able to, this has a navigation button in the recessed grip a fingerprint sensor is integrated.

Dadurch ist eine jederzeitige Identifizierung des Benutzers möglich, ohne das dieser extra dazu aufgefordert werden müßte. Auch tritt durch die geringe Dauer der Identifizierung von unter einer zehntel Sekunde keine spürbare Verzögerung im Ablauf der Bedienung ein. Ebenso erübrigt sich die Eingabe einer PIN-Nummer z. B. für Online- Banking, wodurch gleichzeitig auch auf eine numerische Tastatur verzichtet werden kann - eine entsprechende Benutzeroberfläche vorausgesetzt.This enables the user to be identified at any time, without having to be asked to do so. Also occurs due to the short duration of identification of less than a tenth Seconds, there is no noticeable delay in the sequence of operations. There is also no need to enter a PIN number, e.g. B. for online Banking, which means that at the same time on a numeric keyboard can be dispensed with - a corresponding user interface provided.

Die jederzeitige Identifizierung ermöglicht nicht zuletzt auch eine lückenlose Kindersicherung.Last but not least, identification at any time also enables one complete child protection.

Zu der vorstehend beschrieben Funktionalität genügt die übliche Sendefunktion der Fernsteuerung. Eine Empfangsfunktion der Fernsteuerung ist nicht notwendig, da bei der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung eine Identifizierung durch den Fingerabdrucksensor bei jedem neuen Fingerkontakt vorgesehen ist, und das Ergebnis dann sofort durch die Fernsteuerung übertragen wird. Alternativ kann diese Identifizierung und Übertragung auch erst beim Auslösen der OK- Funktion erfolgen.The usual functionality is sufficient for the functionality described above Remote control send function. A receiving function of the Remote control is not necessary, since in the case of the invention Solution an identification by the fingerprint sensor at each New finger contact is provided, and the result is immediate is transmitted by the remote control. Alternatively, this can Identification and transmission only when the OK Function.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in den Zeichnungen dargestellt. Dabei zeigen in rein schematischer Weise:An embodiment of the invention is in the drawings shown. In a purely schematic way:

Fig. 1 den Längsschnitt durch eine TV-Steuerung; Fig. 1 is a longitudinal section through a TV controller;

Fig. 2 die Aufsicht dieser TV-Fernsteuerung. Fig. 2 is the supervision of this TV remote control.

In Fig. 1 ist eine erfindungsgemäße TV-Fernsteuerung 1 im Längsschnitt dargestellt. Die Navigationstaste 2 trägt in ihrer Griffmulde für die Daumenkuppe einen Fingerabdrucksensor 3. Die Konstruktion der Navigationstaste 2 selbst ist jedoch nicht Gegenstand dieser Anmeldung und wird hier auch nicht dargestellt; ebenso wie der Innenaufbau der Fernsteuerung. In Fig. 1, a TV remote control 1 according to the invention is shown in longitudinal section. The navigation key 2 carries in its grip for the thumb tip a fingerprint sensor. 3 The construction of the navigation button 2 itself is not the subject of this application and is not shown here; just like the internal structure of the remote control.

Fig. 2 zeigt die Aufsicht dieser TV-Fernsteuerung 1 mit Navigationstaste 2 und Fingerabdrucksensor 3. Fig. 2 shows the plan of the TV remote control 1 with navigation keys 2 and fingerprint sensor 3.

Die Erfindung ist nicht auf die dargestellte Ausführungsform beschränkt. Insbesondere kann die Art und Konstruktion der Navigationstaste variiert und diese Fernsteuerung auch für andere als TV-Geräte eingesetzt werden.The invention is not based on the illustrated embodiment limited. In particular, the type and construction of the Navigation button varies and this remote control also for other than TV sets are used.
