  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings.

First Embodiment
First, an electronic device according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIG. In the present embodiment, an example in which the electronic device is a mobile phone will be described. However, in the present embodiment, the electronic device is not limited to the mobile phone, and may be any electronic device such as a music player, a smartphone, a tablet, a portable personal computer, a digital camera, a media player, an electronic book reader, a navigator, and a game machine. It may be.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the electronic device 10 according to the present embodiment includes one or more physical keys 11, an operation pad 12, and a display unit 19.

  Each physical key 11 is provided to be able to be pressed in a direction (pressing direction) from the front surface to the back surface. For example, numbers or symbols may be printed on the surface of each physical key 11. The surface of each physical key 11 may be called a key top surface. In the present embodiment, the physical key 11 includes, for example, a dielectric such as a resin. For example, the relative dielectric constant of the resin contained in the physical key 11 may be 1 or more (for example, about 3). In the following description, an operation of pressing the physical key 11 is referred to as a pressing operation. In addition, the operation of releasing the pressed state of the physical key 11 by weakening the pressing on the pressed physical key 11 is also referred to as a release operation.

  The operation pad 12 is a user interface that receives a user operation on the electronic device 10 using a projected capacitive touch sensor 14 described later. In the present embodiment, a region (one-dot chain line in FIG. 1) surrounding one or more physical keys 11 in the case surface (appearance surface) of the electronic device 10 functions as the operation pad 12. The area functioning as the operation pad 12 includes the surface of the physical key 11. According to this configuration, it is possible to fit the physical key 11 and the operation pad 12 in a narrow area. Such a configuration is suitable, for example, for small devices such as mobile phones or mobile music players.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 2, one or more physical key sensors 13 capable of detecting an operation on each of one or more physical keys 11 (indicated by an alternate long and short dash line in the figure), as shown in FIG. And a touch sensor 14 capable of detecting an operation on the operation pad 12. For example, the one or more physical key sensors 13 and the touch sensor 14 are located on the substrate 15 in the pressing direction of the physical key 11 inside the housing of the electronic device 10.

  The touch sensor 14 is, for example, a projected capacitive sensor, and is provided in the vicinity of the physical key sensor 13 (and the physical key 11). Here, the proximity means that the distance between the physical key sensor 13 and the touch sensor 14 is close to the extent that the touch sensor 14 can detect, for example, a conductor (for example, a user's finger) pressing the physical key 11. In the present embodiment, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, the touch sensor 14 is disposed substantially adjacent to (for example, substantially adjacent to) each physical key sensor 13 so as to surround the periphery of the one or more physical key sensors 13. In other words, the touch sensor 14 is disposed on the substrate 15 so as to avoid the area where the one or more physical key sensors 13 are disposed.

  The projected capacitive touch sensor 14 includes a drive electrode (transmission antenna) and a reception electrode (reception antenna), and detects the capacitance between the drive electrode and the reception electrode. In the present embodiment, the capacitance detected by the touch sensor 14 can be, for example, a difference value between the capacitance at the time of execution of the calibration performed on a timely basis and the capacitance at the current time.

  For example, when a conductor such as a user's finger approaches the touch sensor 14, the capacitance detected by the touch sensor 14 increases. That is, the conductor approaching the touch sensor 14 has an effect of increasing the capacitance detected by the touch sensor 14. On the other hand, as described later, when the physical key 11 configured to include a dielectric such as a resin is pressed to approach the touch sensor 14, the capacitance detected by the touch sensor 14 decreases. That is, the dielectric approaching the touch sensor 14 has an effect of reducing the capacitance detected by the touch sensor 14.

  Therefore, when the physical key 11 is operated, the touch sensor 14 is affected by both the object pressing the physical key 11 and the physical key 11. The capacitance detected by the touch sensor 14 in response to the operation on the physical key 11 will be further described later.

  Next, with reference to FIGS. 3A and 3B, the positional relationship between the physical key 11 and the substrate 15 on which the physical key sensor 13 and the touch sensor 14 are provided will be described. In FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B, for simplification of the description, for example, other configurations such as a housing of the electronic device 10 and a holding member (for example, key rubber) that holds each physical key 11 so as to be pressed. The illustration of the elements is omitted.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 3A, the physical key 11 is integrally formed with a protrusion 16 projecting from the back surface. The substrate 15 on which the physical key sensor 13 and the touch sensor 14 are provided is disposed fixed to the housing of the electronic device 10 so as to face the back surface of the physical key 11.

  The physical key sensor 13 includes, for example, a disc spring 17 (for example, a metal dome) and a key switch 18. Further, the touch sensor 14 is provided substantially adjacent to the disc spring 17 on the radially outer side of the disc spring 17. Further, in the present embodiment, at least a part of the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 overlap with each other in the pressing direction of the physical key 11. Hereinafter, an area where at least a part of the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 overlap in the pressing direction is also referred to as an overlapping area.

  FIG. 3A shows a state (release state) in which the physical key 11 is not pressed. In the released state, the disc spring 17 is not deformed, and the key switch 18 is off. On the other hand, FIG. 3B shows a state in which the physical key 11 is pressed (pressed state). In the pressed state, the disc spring 17 is deformed by the load from the protrusion 16 of the physical key 11. The deformed disc spring 17 turns on the key switch 18. Then, when an object (for example, a user's finger) for pressing the physical key 11 is released from the physical key 11, the disc spring 17 elastically deforms and returns to the original state, for example, the state shown in FIG.

  Here, the relationship between the operation on the physical key 11 and the capacitance detected by the touch sensor 14 will be described. When the physical key 11 changes from the release state shown in FIG. 3A to the pressed state shown in FIG. 3B, the distance between the physical key 11 and the object pressing the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 It becomes short. At this time, the touch sensor 14 is affected by both the physical key 11 (dielectric) and an object on which the physical key 11 is pressed. Hereinafter, the reference value of the electrostatic capacitance which the touch sensor 14 detects is demonstrated as zero.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the capacitance detected by the touch sensor 14 when the physical key 11 is pressed by the user's finger. FIG. 4 is a graph showing the x-axis and y-axis as positions on the touch sensor 14 and the z-axis as capacitance (detected value). When the physical key 11 is pressed by the user's finger, the touch sensor 14 is affected by the increase in capacitance from the conductor (user's finger) and decreases the capacitance from the dielectric (physical key 11). to be influenced. Here, compared with the influence by the physical key 11, the influence by the user's finger is dominant. For this reason, as shown, for example in FIG. 4, the electrostatic capacitance of a value (positive value) larger than a reference value is detected.

  The electronic device 10 according to the present embodiment can detect the operation on the touch sensor 14 as well as the detection of ON / OFF based on the pressing operation on the physical key 11. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the physical key 11 has a configuration that can be pressed. In the present embodiment, the physical key sensor 13 has a configuration capable of detecting an operation on the physical key 11. The physical key sensor 13 can detect, for example, the result of the operation on the physical key 11 as ON / OFF of the physical key 11. Further, in the present embodiment, the touch sensor 14 has a configuration capable of detecting the capacitance when the user's finger or the like approaches. For example, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the touch sensor 14 can detect the capacitance when the physical key 11 is pressed.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, the control unit 22 can determine the coordinates of the touch position (for example, the coordinates at which the capacitance becomes maximum) based on the capacitance detected by the touch sensor 14. Here, the touch position does not have to be the position directly touched by the user's finger on the touch sensor 14. In the present embodiment, the touch position may be, for example, a position on the touch sensor 14 corresponding to the position at which the user's finger is performing the pressing operation on the operation pad 12 including the physical key 11. In the present embodiment, for example, when an operation on the physical key 11 is detected, the control unit 22 can recognize a result detected by the touch sensor 14. Further, in the present embodiment, for example, even when an operation on the physical key 11 is not detected, a result detected by the touch sensor 14 when, for example, the user's finger approaches the operation pad 12 Can be recognized.

  Hereinafter, the determination of the coordinates by the control unit 22 based on the capacitance detected by the touch sensor 14 may be described as “the touch sensor 14 detects the coordinates” as appropriate. Further, in the following description, the fact that the touch sensor 14 detects coordinates may be described as “detecting an operation on the touch sensor 14” as appropriate. Therefore, the case where the operation on the touch sensor 14 is not detected corresponds to the case where the touch sensor 14 does not detect coordinates.

  Next, a schematic configuration of the electronic device 10 will be described with reference to FIG. The electronic device 10 includes a physical key sensor 13, a touch sensor 14, a display unit 19, a communication unit 20, a storage unit 21, and a control unit 22.

  As described above, the physical key sensor 13 includes the disc spring 17 and the key switch 18, and can detect the operation (press operation and release operation) on the physical key 11. The physical key sensor 13 can also detect the state (pressed state and released state) of the physical key 11.

  The touch sensor 14 includes the drive electrode and the reception electrode as described above, and can detect the capacitance (or change in capacitance) between the drive electrode and the reception electrode. Hereinafter, as described above, the touch sensor 14 will be described on the assumption of a projected capacitive type. On the other hand, in the electronic device 10 according to the present embodiment, it is not essential that the finger of the user directly touches the touch sensor 14. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the touch sensor 14 may not necessarily detect direct touch of the user's finger or the like. For example, in the present embodiment, the touch sensor 14 may be a proximity sensor capable of detecting the position and degree of proximity of a user's finger or the like.

  The display unit 19 includes a display device such as a liquid crystal display or an EL display, for example, and can display various screens.

  The communication unit 20 is an interface for performing communication by connecting to, for example, a base station via wireless or wired communication.

  The storage unit 21 includes, for example, a primary storage device and a secondary storage device, and stores various information, programs, and the like necessary for the operation of the electronic device 10. The storage unit 21 can be configured by, for example, a semiconductor memory or a magnetic disk.

  The control unit 22 includes at least one processor, dedicated or general purpose, to provide control and processing capabilities to perform various functions, as will be described in more detail below. In particular, in the electronic device 10 according to the present embodiment, the control unit 22 executes various processes related to the touch sensor 14. For example, the control unit 22 acquires, from the touch sensor 14, information indicating the capacitance detected by the touch sensor 14. Moreover, the control part 22 shall be able to measure time of a predetermined | prescribed space | interval, making an arbitrary event a trigger.

  The number of processors provided in the control unit 22 is not limited to one, and may be plural. According to various embodiments, the at least one processor may also be implemented as a single integrated circuit (IC) or as a plurality of communicatively coupled integrated circuits IC and / or discrete circuits. Good. The at least one processor can be implemented in accordance with various known techniques.

  In one embodiment, a processor includes one or more circuits or units configured to perform one or more data calculation procedures or processes. For example, the processor may be one or more processors, controllers, microprocessors, microcontrollers, application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), digital signal processors, programmable logic devices, field programmable gate arrays, or any of these devices or configurations. The functions described below may be performed by including a combination or a combination of other known devices or configurations.

  In addition, the control unit 22 may appropriately execute calibration (automatic zero correction) of the touch sensor 14 based on the capacitance indicated by the acquired information. In the present embodiment, when the capacitance is less than the reference value (for example, a negative value), the control unit 22 sets the currently detected capacitance as the reference value. Specifically, when the detection value of the capacitance is “−10”, the control unit 22 performs calibration by increasing (+10) the detection value so that the detection value becomes “0”. Run the The calibration algorithm is not limited to the correction, and any algorithm that brings the detected value close to the reference value can be employed.

  Next, the operation of the electronic device 10 according to the present embodiment will be described.

  As described above, in the electronic device 10 according to the present embodiment, the physical key sensor 13 can detect an operation on the physical key 11 as ON / OFF of the physical key 11. In addition, as described above, the electronic device 10 according to the present embodiment can recognize an operation on the touch sensor 14 as a result (for example, coordinates) detected by the touch sensor 14. Therefore, according to the electronic device 10 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, by causing the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 to cooperate with each other, a highly convenient usage can be realized.

  As an interface for detecting a user's operation, when both a keyboard constituted by physical keys and a touch panel are connected, a configuration in which these are switched and used can be considered. That is, the configuration is such that switching is performed so as to recognize the operation of the keyboard when the user wants to input using the keyboard configured by physical keys, and switching is performed so as to recognize the operation of the touch sensor when the user wants to input using the touch sensor Is considered.

  The electronic device 10 according to the present embodiment includes both the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14. Therefore, it is desirable to realize natural behavior according to a series of inputs even if the user's operation on one of the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 is followed by the user's operation on the other. In particular, in the present embodiment, based on a series of operations from one of the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 to the other, a smooth operation without a sense of incongruity for the user is performed. Hereinafter, a specific example of such an operation will be described.

  In the example described below, the electronic device 10 moves the position of the pointer displayed on the display unit 19 in response to the detection of the operation on the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14. Here, the pointer can be, for example, a graphical user interface (GUI) for specifying the position of an object or the like on the screen displayed on the display unit 19. In the present embodiment, the operation performed in response to the detection of the operation on the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 is not limited to the movement of the position of the pointer. For example, the position of the cursor for designating the position of a character or the like may be moved on the screen displayed on the display unit 19. Further, for example, the display range of a screen such as an Internet browser displayed on the display unit 19 may be moved.

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating the operation of the electronic device 10 according to the present embodiment.

  At the time when the operation shown in FIG. 6 starts, in the electronic device 10, it is assumed that the physical key sensor 13 has not detected an operation on the physical key 11, and the touch sensor 14 has not detected any coordinates. That is, at this point in time, the electronic device 10 has not detected an operation on the physical key 11 and has not detected an operation on the touch sensor 14.

  When the operation illustrated in FIG. 6 starts, the control unit 22 determines whether an operation on one of the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 has been detected (step S11). When the operation to either one is not detected in step S11, the control unit 22 continues the process of step S11. The case where the operation on either one is not detected in step S11 is the case where neither the operation on the physical key 11 nor the operation on the touch sensor 14 is detected.

  On the other hand, when an operation on one of the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 is detected in step S11, the control unit 22 executes a process corresponding to the detected operation (step S12). When an operation on the touch sensor 14 is detected in step S12, the control unit 22 executes the function assigned to the operation on the touch sensor 14. For example, when an operation in which the user slides a finger on the touch sensor 14 is detected, the control unit 22 moves the position of the pointer displayed on the display unit 19 so as to follow the trajectory of the slide operation. It is also good. When an operation on the physical key 11 is detected in step S12, the control unit 22 executes the function assigned to the physical key 11. For example, when an operation on a physical key 11 that is a direction indication key (cross key) such as a cursor key is detected, the control unit 22 causes the display unit 19 to display the direction indicated by the direction indication key. You may move the position.

  In step S12, when the control unit 22 executes the process corresponding to the operation, it is preferable to store the result of the operation in the storage unit 19 or the storage unit built in the control unit 22. In the present embodiment, the control unit 22 reads out and uses the result of the operation stored as described above in step S14 described later.

  When the process corresponding to the operation is performed in step S12, the control unit 22 determines whether the operation on the other of the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 has been detected (step S13). Here, the operation on the other of the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 means an operation on the touch sensor 14 when an operation on the physical key 11 is detected in step S11. On the other hand, when an operation on the touch sensor 14 is detected in step S11, an operation on the other of the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 means an operation on the physical key 11.

  When the operation on the other of the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 is not detected in step S13, the control unit 22 returns to step S11 and continues the process. The case where the operation on the other is not detected in step S13, that is, the case where neither the operation on the physical key 11 nor the operation on the touch sensor 14 is detected.

  On the other hand, when an operation on the other of the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 is detected in step S13, the control unit 22 executes a process corresponding to the detected operation (step S14). The “process corresponding to the detected operation” performed in step S14 is the same as the process performed in step S12. However, in step S14, the control unit 22 reflects the result of the operation on one detected in step S11, and then executes the processing corresponding to the detected operation. The result of this operation can be read out and used from the one stored in the storage unit 19 or the built-in storage unit in step S12.

  In the present embodiment, the control unit 22 reflects the coordinates specified as a result of the process performed in step S12 in the process performed in step S14. For example, when coordinates (x1, y1) are indicated as a result of the process executed in step S12, control unit 22 corresponds to the detected operation based on coordinates (x1, y1) in step S14. Execute the process That is, in step S14, the control unit 22 executes processing corresponding to the detected operation, with coordinates (x1, y1) as initial conditions. When the process corresponding to the operation is performed in step S14, the control unit 22 ends the operation according to the present embodiment illustrated in FIG.

  7 and 8 are diagrams for explaining the operation of the electronic device 10 according to the present embodiment. Hereinafter, the operation of the electronic device 10 according to the present embodiment will be described based on a specific example.

  As shown in FIG. 7A, it is assumed that an operation in which the user slides a finger from position T1 to position T2 is detected in the touch sensor 14 (step S11). In this case, as shown in FIG. 8A, the control unit 22 moves the pointer from the coordinate P1 to the coordinate P2 on the display unit 19 so as to follow the locus of the slide operation (step S12).

  Next, as shown in FIG. 7B, it is assumed that an operation in which the user's finger presses the lower direction (D) of the physical key 11 is detected (step S13). In this case, as shown in FIG. 8B, the control unit 22 moves the pointer from the coordinate P2 to the coordinate P3 on the display unit 19 as processing corresponding to an operation of pressing the lower direction (D) of the physical key 11 (Step S14). Here, following the operation (step S11) on the touch sensor 14 (one side), the operation (step S13) on the physical key 11 (the other side) is detected. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, the process corresponding to the operation on the physical key 11 (the other) is performed based on the result (coordinate P2) of the operation on the touch sensor 14 (the one). (Step S14).

  Thereafter, by regarding the processing performed in step S13 and step S14 as the processing performed in step S11 and step S12, the processing corresponding to the operation on the “other” reflecting the result of the operation on “one” is successively performed. Can be performed. In this case, what is referred to as the operation for "the other" in steps S13 and S14 is regarded as the operation for "one" when the processing performed in steps S11 and S12 is considered. A specific example of such a case will be further described below.

  After the state shown in FIG. 8B, as shown in FIG. 7C, it is assumed that an operation in which the user slides a finger from position T3 to position T4 is detected in the touch sensor 14 (step S13). In this case, as shown in FIG. 8C, the control unit 22 moves the pointer from the coordinate P3 to the coordinate P4 on the display unit 19 so as to follow the trajectory of the slide operation (step S14). Here, following the operation (step S11) on the physical key 11 (one side), the operation (step S13) on the touch sensor 14 (the other side) is detected. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 8B and 8C, the process corresponding to the operation on the touch sensor 14 (the other) is performed based on the result (coordinate P3) of the operation on the physical key 11 (the one). (Step S14).

  After the state shown in FIG. 8C, as shown in FIG. 7D, it is assumed that an operation in which the user's finger presses the lower left direction (L and D simultaneously) of the physical key 11 is detected (step S13). ). In this case, as shown in FIG. 8D, the control unit 22 coordinates the pointer from the coordinate P4 on the display unit 19 as a process corresponding to an operation of pressing the lower left direction (L and D simultaneously) of the physical key 11. Move to P5 (step S14). Here, following the operation (step S11) on the touch sensor 14 (one side), the operation (step S13) on the physical key 11 (the other side) is detected. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 8C and 8D, processing corresponding to the operation on physical key 11 (the other) is performed based on the result (coordinate P4) of the operation on touch sensor 14 (one). (Step S14).

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the control unit 22 performs an operation in which the other of the physical key sensor 13 and the touch sensor 14 detects at least a part of the result of the operation detected by one of the physical key sensor 13 and the touch sensor 14. Reflect the result of Here, the operation detected by the physical key sensor 13 may be an operation detected by the physical key 11.

  The electronic device according to the third embodiment can also be realized by the same configuration as the electronic device 10 according to the first embodiment described above, and the control of the control unit 22 is partially changed. In the third embodiment, of the operation of the electronic device 10 according to the first embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the contents of the process performed in step S14 are mainly changed. Hereinafter, in the third embodiment, the description similar to the first and second embodiments will be simplified or omitted as appropriate.

  In the second embodiment described above, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the control unit 22 determines the movement distance per unit time of coordinates based on the result detected by one of the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14. And the other detected (step S14). On the other hand, in the third embodiment, the control unit 22 reflects the one-way component of the displacement of the coordinates detected by the touch sensor 14 on the result of the operation on the physical key sensor 13 or the physical key 11. More specifically, in the third embodiment, the directional component of the slide operation performed by the user on the touch sensor 14 is made to remain even when the operation on the physical key 11 is performed.

  11 and 12 are diagrams for explaining the operation of the electronic device 10 according to the third embodiment. Hereinafter, the operation of the electronic device 10 according to the third embodiment will be described based on a specific example.

  As shown in FIG. 11A, it is assumed that an operation in which the user slides a finger from the position T1 to the position T2 is detected in the touch sensor 14 (step S11). In this case, as shown in FIG. 12A, the control unit 22 moves the pointer from the coordinate P1 to the coordinate P2 on the display unit 19 so as to follow the trajectory of the slide operation (step S12). At this time, it is assumed that the direction component of the displacement of the coordinates detected in response to the operation of the user sliding the finger from the position T1 to the position T2 in the touch sensor 14 is mainly in the right direction. In this case, as shown in FIG. 12A, the control unit 22 causes the display unit 19 to move the pointer from the coordinate P1 to the coordinate P2 at the speed V1 (step S12). After moving the pointer to the right in step S12, the control unit 22 preferably stores the component of the movement direction in the storage unit 19 or in the storage unit built in the control unit 22 or the like.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 11B, it is assumed that an operation in which the user's finger presses the lower direction (D) of the physical key 11 is detected (step S13). In this case, as shown in FIG. 12B, the control unit 22 performs a process corresponding to an operation of pressing the lower direction (D) of the physical key 11 in the display unit 19 from the coordinate P2 through the coordinate P3. The coordinate is moved to P4 (step S14). Here, following the operation (step S11) on the touch sensor 14 (one side), the operation (step S13) on the physical key 11 (the other side) is detected. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 12A and 12B, based on the result (direction component Vr2) of the operation on the touch sensor 14 (one), the process corresponding to the operation on the physical key 11 (the other) is performed.

The pointer is moved in the direction of the composite vector of the downward component Vd. In the example illustrated in FIG. 11 and FIG. 12, the slide operation in the right direction with respect to the touch sensor 14 is no longer detected after the time point P2. For this reason, in an example of the present embodiment, the control unit 22 may gradually reduce the magnitude of the vector of the component Vr2 in the right direction at the time point P2 after the time point P2. In the example shown in FIG. 12C, the component Vr2 in the right direction at time point P2 becomes the component Vr3 in the right direction at time point P3 and gradually decreases so that it becomes the component Vr4 in the right direction at time point P4. It has become.

Smooth operation is performed. In particular, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 12, the trajectory of the movement of the pointer according to the user's operation is not unnaturally refracted. Therefore, according to the electronic device 10 according to the present embodiment, the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 can be cooperated to enhance convenience.

  In the third embodiment described above, as shown in FIG. 11 and FIG. 12, the control unit 22 detects the one direction component of the displacement of the coordinate detected by one of the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 by the other. The result is reflected on the result (step S14). On the other hand, in the fourth embodiment, the control unit 22 reflects the unidirectional component of the displacement per unit time of the coordinates detected by the touch sensor 14 on the result of the operation on the physical key sensor 13 or the physical key 11. More specifically, in the fourth embodiment, a relatively quick slide operation such as flicking or swiping performed by the user on the touch sensor 14 can be continuously performed by the operation on the physical key 11.

  13 and 14 are diagrams for explaining an example of the operation of the electronic device 10 according to the fourth embodiment. The operation of the electronic device 10 according to the fourth embodiment will be described below based on a specific example.

  In the following example, the electronic device 10 detects a relatively quick slide operation, such as flicking or swiping on the touch sensor 14. Based on the detection of such a slide operation, the electronic device 10 scrolls the display range of the screen displayed on the display unit 19 in the upward or downward direction, for example. Hereinafter, the user's relatively quick slide operation such as flicking or swiping on the touch sensor 14 is appropriately referred to simply as “flick”.

  In this embodiment, it is preferable to detect the displacement per unit time of the coordinates detected by the touch sensor 14 in order not to detect the relatively slow slide operation of the user as a flick. In this way, when the displacement per unit time of the coordinates detected by the touch sensor 14 becomes larger than a predetermined value, it can be detected as a flick. In this case, when the displacement per unit time of the coordinates detected by the touch sensor 14 does not increase beyond a predetermined time, it is possible not to detect as a flick. In the present embodiment, in the case where the displacement per unit time of the coordinates detected by the touch sensor 14 is larger than a predetermined value, for example, when the upward direction is included as the one-way component of the displacement, this operation is upward. It can be detected as a flick.

  As shown in FIG. 13A, it is assumed that a relatively large upward flick from the position T1 to the position T2 is detected in the touch sensor 14 (step S11). At this time, it is assumed that the directional component of the displacement of the coordinate detected in response to the flick from the position T1 to the position T2 in the touch sensor 14 includes the upward direction. In this case, as shown in FIG. 14A, the control unit 22 scrolls the display range of the screen displayed on the display unit 19 largely in the upward direction, for example, according to the size of the flick (step S12). . In FIG. 14A, in accordance with the large flick, the display range of the screen of the list display displayed on the display unit 19 is scrolled upward by about 10 lines. After scrolling upward in step S12, the control unit 22 preferably stores the direction and size of the scroll in the storage unit 19 or the storage unit built in the control unit 22.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 13B, it is assumed that an operation in which the user's finger presses the lower direction (D) of the physical key 11 is detected (step S13). As a process corresponding to this operation, as shown in FIG. 14 (B), the control unit 22 makes the display range of the screen displayed on the display unit 19 about the same as the scroll size according to the detection of the flick. , And scroll upward (step S14). Here, following the operation (step S11) on the touch sensor 14 (one side), the operation (step S13) on the physical key 11 (the other side) is detected. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 14B, based on the one-way component (here, the upward direction) of displacement (flick) per unit time of the coordinates detected by the operation on the touch sensor 14 (one side), the physical key A process corresponding to the operation on 11 (the other) is performed (step S14). When the previous flick is detected, the control unit 22 scrolls the display range of the list display screen displayed on the display unit 19 largely upward by about 10 lines. Therefore, even when an operation of pressing the downward direction (D) of the physical key 11 by the user's finger is detected, the control unit 22 controls the display range of the list display screen displayed on the display unit 19 by about 10 lines. , Scroll up.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 13C, it is further assumed that an operation of pressing the lower direction (D) of the physical key 11 by the user's finger is detected (step S13). As a process corresponding to this operation, as shown in FIG. 14C, the control unit 22 makes the display range of the screen displayed on the display unit 19 about the same as the scroll size according to the previous detection of the flick. , And scroll upward (step S14). After that, each time an operation of pressing the downward direction (D) of the physical key 11 by the user's finger is detected, the control unit 22 sets the display range of the screen displayed on the display unit 19 to the flick of the previous one. Scroll up in the same degree as the size of the scroll according to the detection.

  FIG. 15 and FIG. 16 are diagrams for explaining another example of the operation of the electronic device 10 according to the fourth embodiment.

  In the following example, the electronic device 10 is the same as the above-described example in that flicks to the touch sensor 14 are detected.

  In this example, as shown in FIG. 15A, it is assumed that a relatively small upward flick from the position T1 to the position T2 is detected in the touch sensor 14 (step S11). At this time, it is assumed that the directional component of the displacement of the coordinate detected in response to the flick from the position T1 to the position T2 in the touch sensor 14 includes the upward direction. In this case, as shown in FIG. 16A, the control unit 22 scrolls the display range of the screen displayed on the display unit 19, for example, upward according to the size of the flick (step S12). . In FIG. 16A, the display range of the list display screen displayed on the display unit 19 is scrolled up by about three lines in a small upward direction in response to a large flick. After scrolling upward in step S12, the control unit 22 preferably stores the direction and size of the scroll in the storage unit 19 or the storage unit built in the control unit 22.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 15B, it is assumed that an operation in which the user's finger presses the lower direction (D) of the physical key 11 is detected (step S13). As processing corresponding to this operation, as shown in FIG. 16 (B), the control unit 22 makes the display range of the screen displayed on the display unit 19 about the same as the scroll size according to the previous detection of the flick. , And scroll upward (step S14). Here, following the operation (step S11) on the touch sensor 14 (one side), the operation (step S13) on the physical key 11 (the other side) is detected. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 16 (B), based on the one-way component (here, the upward direction) of displacement (flick) per unit time of the coordinates detected by the operation on touch sensor 14 (one side), the physical key A process corresponding to the operation on 11 (the other) is performed (step S14). When the previous flicking is detected, the control unit 22 scrolls the display range of the list display screen displayed on the display unit 19 largely upward by about three lines. Therefore, even when an operation in which the user's finger presses the lower direction (D) of the physical key 11 is detected, the control unit 22 controls the display range of the list display screen displayed on the display unit 19 by about three lines. , Scroll up.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 15C, it is further assumed that an operation of pressing the lower direction (D) of the physical key 11 by the user's finger is detected (step S13). As processing corresponding to this operation, as shown in FIG. 16C, the control unit 22 makes the display range of the screen displayed on the display unit 19 about the same as the scroll size according to the previous detection of the flick. , And scroll upward (step S14). After that, each time an operation of pressing the downward direction (D) of the physical key 11 by the user's finger is detected, the control unit 22 sets the display range of the screen displayed on the display unit 19 to the flick of the previous one. Scroll up in the same degree as the size of the scroll according to the detection.

  Thus, in the present embodiment, the control unit 22 reflects the one-way component of the displacement per unit time of the coordinates detected by the touch sensor 14 on the result of the operation on the physical key sensor 13 or the physical key 11.

  According to the electronic device of the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 13 and 15, when an operation on the physical key sensor 13 is detected following the flick on the touch sensor 14, the operation is shown in FIGS. 14 and 16. As such, the scrolling in response to the flick continues to be performed. Therefore, according to the electronic device according to the present embodiment, a smooth operation without a sense of incongruity for the user is performed. In particular, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 14, when it is desired to scroll the screen display over a large number of lines greatly, the user does not have to repeat the flick of the large operation many times. Therefore, according to the electronic device 10 according to the present embodiment, the physical key 11 and the touch sensor 14 can be cooperated to enhance convenience.
