Description

  The present invention relates to an electronic device and an input control program.

  2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, electronic devices such as smartphones, mobile phones, and electronic book terminals that have a touch panel have become widespread. In an electronic device having a touch panel, character input is performed using a software keyboard displayed on the touch panel. As a typical character input method using a software keyboard, a “flick input method” is known. The flick input method refers to the touch position and the moving direction of the touch position among a plurality of character candidates assigned to the input key when the touch position moves with respect to the input key selected according to the touch position on the touch panel. This is a method for inputting a character corresponding to the pair. In the flick input method, the operation of moving the touch position with respect to the input key is called “flick operation”.

  In electronic devices that use the flick input method, there is no button for each key and the input surface is flat, so an operation to move the touch position from the input key against the user's intention, that is, an unintended flick operation is performed. May be. When an unintended flick operation is performed, a character different from a character that the user originally wants to input may be erroneously input among a plurality of character candidates assigned to the input key. For this reason, various techniques for suppressing erroneous input have been proposed.

  For example, there is a technique for comparing the movement distance of the initial touch position with respect to the input key and a threshold value, and stopping the occurrence of an event corresponding to the flick operation when the movement distance is equal to or smaller than the threshold value.

  However, the above-described conventional technology has a problem that it is difficult to suppress an erroneous input associated with an unintended flick operation. For example, in the above-described conventional technology, when the movement distance of the touch position moved by an unintended flick operation exceeds a threshold value, the occurrence of the event is not stopped, so that a character different from the character that the user originally wants to input is erroneously input. There is a fear.

  The disclosed technology has been made in view of the above, and an object thereof is to provide an electronic device and an input control program that can suppress an erroneous input associated with an unintended flick operation.

  In one aspect, an electronic apparatus disclosed in the present application includes a display unit, a touch panel provided by being stacked on the display unit, and a processor. The electronic device detects the touch position of the touch panel. The electronic device is associated with a set of an input key selected according to a touch position of the touch panel from a plurality of keys displayed on the display unit and a moving direction of the touch position with respect to the input key, The number of times the character input from the input key is corrected is measured. When the touch position moves with respect to the input key, the electronic device can perform the movement according to the touch position after the movement based on the number of times according to the combination of the input key and the movement direction of the touch position. Adjust the waiting time until the character input from the input key is confirmed.

  According to one aspect of the electronic device disclosed in the present application, it is possible to suppress an erroneous input associated with an unintended flick operation.

The disclosed technology is not limited by this embodiment. In the following embodiments, the same reference numerals are given to the components having the same functions, and duplicate descriptions are omitted.

<Example of hardware configuration of electronic device>
FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a hardware configuration example of an electronic apparatus according to the present embodiment. In FIG. 1, an electronic device 10 includes an antenna 11, a wireless unit 12, a speaker 13, a microphone 14, an audio input / output unit 15, a touch panel 16, an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) 17, a memory 19, And a processor 20. Examples of the electronic device 10 include a smartphone and a tablet terminal.

  The wireless unit 12 transmits and receives wireless signals via the antenna 11.

  The audio input / output unit 15 performs audio processing on the sound collected by the microphone 14 and performs audio processing on the audio signal in the radio signal received via the radio unit 12 to output sound from the speaker 13.

  The touch panel 16 is an input interface that detects a touch operation on the screen of the LCD 17. The LCD 17 is an output interface that displays various information such as a character input screen in the character input mode. For example, the touch panel 16 and the LCD 17 are stacked to form a display module 18, and the display module 18 is attached to the surface of the electronic device 10. In the following description, the touch panel 16 and the LCD 17 are collectively referred to as “touch panel 16”.

  The memory 19 stores various application programs, various tables, and the like. The memory 19 is used as a buffer memory. As an example of the memory 19, a RAM (Random Access Memory) such as SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory), a ROM (Read Only Memory), a flash memory, and the like can be cited.

  The processor 20 performs various processes of the electronic device 10. In particular, the processor 20 performs various controls according to input operations on the touch panel 16. Examples of the processor 20 include a central processing unit (CPU), a digital signal processor (DSP), and a field programmable gate array (FPGA).

<Operation of electronic equipment>
FIG. 2 is a diagram for explaining the operation of the electronic apparatus according to the present embodiment. In FIG. 2, an example of the operation of the electronic device 10 for avoiding a situation in which a character “o” different from the character “a” that the user originally wants to input is avoided is shown in time series from time t1 to time t5. Yes.

  In FIG. 2, at time t <b> 1, touch is performed after the character input screen 16 </ b> A is displayed on the touch panel 16. Hereinafter, the touch after the display of the character input screen 16A may be simply referred to as “touch”. The touch position on the touch panel 16 may be referred to as a “touch position”.

  The character input screen 16A is divided into two areas 16B and 16C. Characters input by the user are displayed in area 16B, and a keyboard is displayed in area 16C. Here, as an example of the keyboard, a numeric keypad for inputting kana characters is shown. The numeric keypad for inputting kana characters includes a key for inputting characters and a delete key for deleting characters.

  The processor 20 detects the touch position of the touch panel 16 at time t1. In the example of FIG. 2, the processor 20 detects the touch position T <b> 1 for the key “A”.

  In character input of kana characters in the flick input method, when an input key is selected according to the touch position of the touch panel 16 from a plurality of keys displayed on the touch panel 16, a plurality of character candidates assigned to the input key are displayed. Is displayed. Here, the “input key” refers to a key that is currently selected as a key for inputting characters among a plurality of keys displayed on the touch panel 16. The plurality of character candidates are a plurality of characters displayed on the touch panel 16 in response to selection of an input key, and are a plurality of characters that are continuous with each other according to a predetermined rule. In the example of FIG. 2, when the key “A” is selected as the input key in accordance with the touch position T1, “I”, “U”, “E”, and “O” are the key candidates, respectively. "A" is displayed in the left direction, upward direction, right direction, and downward direction.

  Although not shown, when the key “ka” is selected as the input key according to the touch position T1, “ki”, “ku”, “ke”, “ko” The key “ka” is displayed in the left direction, the upward direction, the right direction, and the downward direction, respectively. Similarly, for other keys, a plurality of character candidates assigned to the input keys are displayed.

  Next, it is assumed that an unintended “flick operation” is performed by the user at time t2. The “flick operation” is an operation for moving the touch position with respect to the input key, and the “unintended flick operation” is an operation for moving the touch position with respect to the input key against the user's intention. At time t2, as an example, an unintended flick operation is performed in the area of the key “A”, which is an input key, so that the touch position T1 moves downward with respect to the key “A”, and the touch after the movement Position T2. Then, of the plurality of character candidates assigned to the input key “A”, the character “O” positioned below the key “A” is input according to the touch position T2 after the movement. The processor 20 displays the character “o” input by the user in the area 16B.

  Next, as shown at times t3 and t4, the processor 20 associates the input key selected according to the touch position with the combination of the moving direction of the touch position with respect to the input key and the character input from the input key. The number of times of correction (hereinafter referred to as “the number of corrections” as appropriate) is measured.

  That is, at time t3, an operation of deleting the character “o” input from the input key “a” by the user is performed. Upon receiving an operation for deleting the character “o” input from the input key “a” by the user, the processor 20 stores the deleted character (hereinafter referred to as “deleted character” as appropriate) “o” in the memory 19. At the same time, the deletion character “o” is deleted from the area 16B.

  Next, at time t4, after an operation of deleting the character “o” input from the input key “a” is received, the first touch is performed. Hereinafter, the first touch after accepting an operation for deleting a character may be referred to as a “new touch”. The position of the new touch with respect to the touch panel 16 may be referred to as a “new touch position”. The processor 20 detects a new touch position of the touch panel 16 at time t4, and determines a character input from the input key according to the detected new touch position. In the example of FIG. 2, the processor 20 detects a new touch position T3 for the input key “A”, and determines the character “A” as a character input from the input key according to the detected new touch position T3.

  Then, when the new touch position T3 is present in the display area of the input key “A” that is the same as the touch position T1, and the new touch position T3 does not move with respect to the input key “A”, the processor 20 Process. That is, since the character “o” input from the input key “a” has been corrected to the character “a”, the processor 20 moves the touch position corresponding to the input key “a” and the deleted character “o”. Count the number of corrections according to the combination of “downward”. In this way, the processor 20 measures the number of corrections in association with the combination of the input key selected according to the touch position and the moving direction of the touch position with respect to the input key. The number of corrections measured by the processor 20 is stored in the memory 19.

  FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of a correspondence relationship between the input key, the moving direction of the touch position, and the number of corrections, which is stored in the memory. In FIG. 3, it is assumed that the initial value of the number of corrections is “0”. Assume that the new touch position T3 is present in the same display area of the input key “A” as the touch position T1, and the new touch position T3 does not move relative to the input key “A”. In this case, the processor 20 counts up the number of corrections corresponding to the combination of the input key “A” and the movement direction “downward” of the touch position corresponding to the deletion character “O” by one.

  Returning to the description of FIG. Next, at time t5, an unintended “flick operation” is performed again by the user. At time t5, as an example, an unintended flick operation is performed in the area of the key “A”, which is an input key, so that the initial touch position moves downward with respect to the key “A”, and the post-movement The touch position is T4. On the other hand, the processor 20 determines from the input key “A” according to the touch position after movement based on the number of corrections corresponding to the combination of the input key “A” and the movement direction “downward” of the touch position. Adjust the waiting time until input characters are confirmed.

  An example of adjusting the standby time will be described with reference to FIG. The processor 20 reads from the memory 19 the number of corrections “1” corresponding to the combination of the input key “A” and the movement direction “downward” of the touch position. Then, the processor 20 uses the read correction number “1” to calculate the waiting time until the character “o” input from the input key “a” is determined according to the touch position T4 after the movement. Specifically, the processor 20 extends the standby time as the number of corrections is counted up as adjustment of the standby time. For example, the processor 20 calculates the standby time by multiplying the correction count “1” by a predetermined reference time.

  Returning to the description of FIG. The processor 20 replaces the touch position T4 after the movement with the touch position before the movement in the period from when the touch position moves with respect to the input key “A” at the time t5 until the standby time expires. The character “A” input from the input key “A” is determined. In other words, if the processor 20 detects the touch position T4 after the movement in the period until the standby time expires, the processor 20 invalidates the detected touch position T4 after the movement, and uses the input key according to the touch position before the movement. Confirm the character “A” input from “A”. Then, the processor 20 displays the character “A” determined according to the touch position before the movement in the area 16B. This avoids a situation in which a character “o” different from the character “a” that the user originally wants to input is erroneously input.

<Processing electronic devices>
4 to 7 are flowcharts for explaining the processing of the electronic device according to the present embodiment.

  The processor 20 determines whether or not an application in which character input is performed by the user, that is, a character input application is activated (S101). When the character input application is not activated (No at S101), the processor 20 repeats the determination at step S101.

  When the character input application is activated (Yes in S101), the processor 20 displays the character input screen 16A on the touch panel 16 (S102).

  The processor 20 determines whether or not a touch is detected (S103). If a touch is not detected (No at S103), the processor 20 moves the process to step S109.

  When a touch is detected (Yes at S103), the processor 20 performs a touch start process (S104). The touch start process performed in step S104 is shown in FIG.

  In the touch start process illustrated in FIG. 5, first, the processor 20 acquires touch coordinates that are coordinates of a touch position on the touch panel 16 (S201).

  The processor 20 determines whether or not the touch coordinates are present in the input key display area (S202). If the touch coordinates are present in the display area of the input key (Yes at S202), the processor 20 displays a plurality of character candidates assigned to the input key on the touch panel 16 (S203), and the process proceeds to step S105 in FIG. To do.

  When the touch coordinates do not exist in the input key display area (No in S202), the processor 20 determines whether or not the touch coordinates exist in the display area of the delete key (S204). If the touch coordinates do not exist in the delete key display area (No at S204), the processor 20 moves the process to step S105 in FIG.

  If the touch coordinates are present in the display area of the delete key (Yes at S204), the processor 20 accepts an operation for deleting the character input from the input key and deletes the character from the display on the touch panel 16 (S205). Then, the processor 20 stores the deleted character in the memory 19 (S206), and the process proceeds to step S105 in FIG.

  Returning to the description of FIG. 4, the processor 20 determines whether or not the touch coordinates exist in the display area of the delete key (S105). If the touch coordinates are present in the display area of the delete key (Yes at S105), the processor 20 moves the process to step S109.

  If the touch coordinates do not exist in the delete key display area, that is, if the touch coordinates exist in the input key display area (No in S105), the processor 20 determines whether or not the touch coordinates move with respect to the input key. Determine (S106). If the touch coordinates do not move (No at S106), the processor 20 accepts an operation for determining character input, such as a touch release operation, as necessary, and the process proceeds to step S108.

  When the touch coordinate moves with respect to the input key, that is, when the touch position moves with respect to the input key (Yes in S106), the processor 20 performs a touch update process (S107). The touch update process performed in step S107 is shown in FIG.

  In the touch update process illustrated in FIG. 6, first, the processor 20 acquires moving touch coordinates that are coordinates of the touch position after movement (S301).

  The processor 20 specifies the moving direction of the touch position from the touch coordinates before moving and the moving touch coordinates (S302). For example, the left direction, the upward direction, the right direction, and the downward direction are specified as the movement direction of the touch position. The moving direction of the touch position specified by the processor 20 is stored in the memory 19.

  The processor 20 reads the number of corrections corresponding to the combination of the input key and the moving direction of the touch position from the memory 19 (S303). Note that the memory 19 stores, for example, a correspondence relationship between the input key, the moving direction of the touch position, and the number of corrections as illustrated in FIG. Then, the processor 20 calculates a waiting time until the character input from the input key is determined according to the touch position after the movement, using the read correction number (S304). Specifically, as the adjustment of the standby time, the processor 20 extends the standby time as the number of corrections is counted up, and shortens the standby time as the number of corrections is counted down. Note that details of the count-up or count-down of the number of corrections will be described later.

  After calculating the standby time, the processor 20 starts a standby time timer (S305), and shifts the processing to step S108 in FIG. The waiting time timer measures the waiting time.

  Returning to the description of FIG. 4, the processor 20 performs a touch end process (S <b> 108). The touch end process performed in step S108 is shown in FIG.

  In the touch end process shown in FIG. 7, first, the processor 20 determines whether or not the standby time timer is activated (S401). If the standby time timer is not activated, the touch coordinates are not moved, and if the standby time timer is activated, the touch coordinates are moved. If the standby time timer has not been activated (No at S401), the processor 20 moves the process to step S404.

  When the standby time timer is activated (Yes in S401), the processor 20 determines whether or not a timeout of the standby time timer has been detected, that is, whether or not the standby time has expired (S402).

  When the timeout of the waiting time timer is not detected (No in S402), the processor 20 invalidates the moving touch coordinates and determines the character input from the input key according to the touch coordinates before the movement instead of the moving touch coordinates. (S403), the process proceeds to step S405.

  When the timeout of the waiting time timer is detected (Yes in S402), the processor 20 determines the character input from the input key according to the touch coordinates before the movement and the moving direction of the touch position (S404), and performs the processing. The process proceeds to step S405.

  Next, the processor 20 determines whether or not the deleted character is stored in the memory 19 (S405). If the deleted character is stored in the memory 19, the current touch coordinate corresponds to the new touch coordinate that is the coordinate of the new touch position, and if the deleted character is not stored in the memory 19, the current touch coordinate. Does not correspond to the new touch coordinates. If the deleted character is not stored in the memory 19 (No at S405), the processor 20 moves the process to step S109 in FIG.

  When the deleted character is stored in the memory 19 (Yes in S405), the processor 20 refers to the memory 19 and determines whether the deleted character and the character determined in step S403 or S404 are input from the same input key. Is determined (S406). That is, if the deleted character is stored in the memory 19, the current touch coordinates correspond to the new touch coordinates, so the processor 20 displays the same input key as the touch position where the new touch position was detected last time. It is determined whether or not it exists in the area.

  The processor 20 determines that the deleted character and the confirmed character are not input from the same input key, that is, the new touch position does not exist in the same input key display area as the previously detected touch position ( (No at S406), the process proceeds to step S109 in FIG. If the new touch position does not exist in the same input key display area as the previously detected touch position, it is not a correction of an erroneous input caused by an unintended flick operation, but an erroneous input caused by an input key selection error by the user. Corrections are made. For this reason, when the new touch position does not exist in the same input key display area as the previously detected touch position, the processor 20 does not count up or count down the number of corrections in the processes of steps S407 to S410.

  When the deleted character and the confirmed character are input from the same input key, that is, when the new touch position exists in the same input key display area as the previously detected touch position (S406). (Yes), the following processing is performed. That is, the processor 20 determines whether or not the new touch coordinates are moved with respect to the input key (S407). If the new touch coordinates do not move with respect to the input key (No at S407), the processor 20 counts up the number of corrections according to the combination of the input key and the moving direction of the touch position corresponding to the deleted character (S408), The process proceeds to step S109 in FIG. At this time, the processor 20 initializes (deletes) the deleted character stored in the memory 19.

  When the new touch coordinate moves with respect to the input key (Yes in S407), the processor 20 determines whether or not the deleted character is a character that is input along with the flick operation (S409). If the deleted character is a character that is input along with the flick operation (Yes at S409), the processor 20 moves the process to step S109 in FIG.

  If the deleted character is not a character that is input along with the flick operation (No at S409), the processor 20 counts down the number of corrections according to the combination of the input key and the moving direction of the new touch position (S410), and performs the processing. The process proceeds to step S109 in FIG. At this time, the processor 20 initializes (deletes) the deleted character stored in the memory 19.

  As described above, the processor 20 measures the number of corrections in association with the combination of the input key selected according to the touch position and the moving direction of the touch position with respect to the input key.

  Returning to the description of FIG. 4, the processor 20 determines whether or not the character input application is terminated (S109). If the character input application is not terminated (No at S109), the processor 20 returns the process to step S103.

  When the character input application is terminated (Yes at S109), the processor 20 closes the character input screen 16A (S110).

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the electronic device 10 includes the touch panel 16 and the processor 20. The processor 20 detects the touch position of the touch panel 16. Then, the processor 20 inputs from the input key in association with the combination of the input key selected according to the touch position from the plurality of keys displayed on the touch panel 16 and the moving direction of the touch position with respect to the input key. The number of corrections, which is the number of times the character to be corrected, is measured. Then, when the touch position moves with respect to the input key, the processor 20 inputs from the input key according to the touch position after the movement based on the number of corrections according to the combination of the input key and the moving direction of the touch position. Adjust the waiting time until the character to be confirmed is confirmed.

  Thereby, even if the touch position moves with respect to the input key due to an unintended flick operation, the confirmation of the input character corresponding to the touch position after the movement can be delayed by the standby time. As a result, an erroneous input associated with an unintended flick operation can be suppressed.

  Further, the processor 20 has a new touch position detected after the operation of deleting the character input from the input key is received in the same input key display area as the previously detected touch position, and the input If the new touch position does not move relative to the key, the following processing is performed. That is, the processor 20 counts up the number of corrections corresponding to the combination of the input key and the moving direction of the touch position corresponding to the deleted character as the number of times. Then, the processor 20 extends the standby time as the number of corrections is counted up.

  As a result, the longer the character input from the input key is corrected, the longer the standby time, so that it is possible to more efficiently suppress erroneous input associated with an unintended flick operation.

  Further, the processor 20 has a new touch position detected after the operation of deleting the character input from the input key is received in the same input key display area as the previously detected touch position, and the input When the new touch position moves with respect to the key, the following processing is performed. That is, the processor 20 counts down the number of corrections corresponding to the combination of the input key and the moving direction of the new touch position as the number of times. Then, the processor 20 shortens the standby time as the number of corrections is counted down.

  Thereby, when the touch position moves with respect to the input key in accordance with the flick operation intended by the user, a situation in which determination of the input character according to the touch position after the movement is excessively delayed is avoided. As a result, it is possible to smoothly perform character input accompanying the flick operation intended by the user.

  Further, when the new touch position does not exist in the same input key display area as the previously detected touch position, the processor 20 does not count up or count down the number of corrections.

  As a result, the number of corrections is not updated along with correction of erroneous input due to an input key selection error by the user, so correction of erroneous input due to an input key selection error by the user and an unintended flick operation It is possible to clearly discriminate the correction of erroneous input caused by the error.

  Further, the processor 20 is input from the input key according to the touch position before the movement instead of the touch position after the movement in the period from when the touch position moves with respect to the input key until the standby time expires. Confirm the character to be used.

  As a result, the touch position after the movement can be invalidated during the period until the standby time expires, so that erroneous input associated with an unintended flick operation can be more efficiently suppressed.
