The content may be visual, auditory or tactile type content, and in one embodiment may be educational content.

FIG. 2 is a view for explaining a touch input device and a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating identification values assigned to a pattern identification area according to an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 2, a mobile terminal 120 including a touch display unit 250 is described as an embodiment.

The touch input device 110 includes a plurality of reference touch units 210 and 220, a barcode pattern unit 230, and a frame unit 240. [

The plurality of reference touch units 210 and 220 and the barcode pattern unit 230 are in contact with the touch display unit 250 of the mobile terminal 120. The plurality of reference touch units 210 and 220 and the barcode pattern unit 230 may be located inside the touch boundary unit 241 and the touch boundary unit 241 may be circular as an embodiment.

The barcode pattern unit 230 is positioned between the reference touch units 210 and 220. At least one contact surface contacting the touch display unit 250 is formed in the barcode pattern unit 230 in a bar- . The barcode pattern unit 230 is positioned within a predetermined distance from the reference touch units 210 and 220 and the barcode pattern unit 230 and the reference touch units 210 and 220 may be in contact with each other .

The mobile terminal 120 recognizes the pattern of the touch input device 110 and transmits the content of the baseball game to the frame unit 240. The content of the content corresponding to the pattern of the barcode pattern unit 230 is formed in the frame unit 240, A shape for the baseball hole may be formed in the frame portion 240. [

The mobile terminal 120 according to the present invention recognizes a plurality of reference touch surfaces 211 and 221 by the reference touch units 210 and 220 and recognizes a plurality of reference touch surfaces 211 and 221 included in the pattern recognition area 231 And recognizes the touch of the barcode pattern unit 230 with respect to a plurality of identification areas.

In one embodiment, the mobile terminal 120 may recognize the reference touch surface 211, 221 and create a pattern recognition area 231 between the reference touch surfaces. At this time, the mobile terminal 120 recognizes the touch by the touch boundary portion 241 and recognizes the reference touch surface 211, 221 located within a predetermined distance from the touch point of the touch boundary portion 241. [

The pattern recognition area 231 may be specified by the reference touch planes 211 and 221 and the position of the pattern recognition area 231 may be determined by the positions of the reference touch planes 211 and 221. The boundary line of the pattern recognition area 231 may be located within a predetermined distance from the boundary line of the touch reference planes 211 and 221.

The size and shape of the pattern recognition area 231 correspond to the size and shape of the barcode pattern part 230. The contact surface of the bar code pattern portion 230 corresponds to the identification area included in the pattern recognition area 231 located. The size and shape of the identification area included in the pattern recognition area 231 may all be the same, and the size, shape, and number of the identification area may be designed variously according to the embodiment. The size, shape, and number of the contact surfaces of the barcode pattern unit 230 can be designed according to the size, shape, and number of the identification regions. In Fig. 2, a pattern recognition area 231 including 14 identification areas of the same size and shape is shown as an embodiment.

The mobile terminal 120 generates touch pattern information using the touch recognition result value of the pattern recognition area 231, and provides the contents of the touch pattern information. The hatched area in FIG. 2 represents a region where the touch is made by the touch input device 110.

The mobile terminal 120 can recognize the touch for the identification area in which the touch is made and generate the touch recognition result value. The mobile terminal 120 may generate '1' or '0' as a touch recognition result value or may call an identification value assigned to the identification area as a touch recognition result value, depending on whether or not the touch recognition is performed.

As an example, if the identification value is assigned to the pattern recognition area 231 as shown in FIG. 3, the mobile terminal 120 may generate 'BCFJN' as the touch pattern information. Then, the mobile terminal 120 can provide the content for the baseball game as the content for the " BCFJN ".

As a result, according to the present invention, it is possible to recognize a touch pattern by recognizing whether or not touch is made with respect to the identification area included in the pattern recognition area set between the reference touch points. That is, according to the present invention, since the touch pattern is determined depending on whether or not the touch is performed on the already set identification area, the geometric relation for a plurality of points to be touched at random, for example, The touch pattern can be easily recognized and the touch pattern recognition rate can be improved.

In the meantime, although two reference touch units are used in FIG. 2 as one embodiment, the reference touch unit may be two or more. For example, four reference touch parts may be arranged in a quadrangular shape, and a barcode pattern part may be positioned between four reference touch parts.

Also, according to the embodiment, the touch input device 110 may include one reference touch portion. The barcode pattern unit 230 may be positioned adjacent to one reference touch unit, for example, within a predetermined distance from one reference touch unit. 2, the touch input apparatus 110 may include only the first reference touch unit 210 or the second reference touch unit 220.

The mobile terminal 120 recognizes the first reference touch surface 211 or the second reference touch surface 221 and recognizes a plurality of patterns included in the pattern recognition area 231 located at a predetermined distance from the recognized reference touch surface Recognizes the touch of the barcode pattern unit 230 with respect to the identification area. The mobile terminal 120 may generate a pattern recognition area 231 located at a predetermined distance from the recognized reference touch surface.

When one reference touch unit is used, the width of the barcode pattern unit 230 can be widened, and the number of identification regions included in the pattern recognition area 231 can also be increased. Accordingly, more various patterns can be created, and the content that can be provided by one touch input device can also be increased.

FIG. 4 is a view for explaining a content providing method according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 5 and 6 are views for explaining a pattern recognition method according to an embodiment of the present invention. In FIGS. 5 and 6, a pattern recognition area including eight identification areas is shown as an embodiment. 4 to 6, a content providing method according to the mobile terminal of FIG. 1 is described as an embodiment.

The mobile terminal according to the present invention recognizes touch patterns according to multi-touches (S410, S420, and S430), and provides contents for the recognized patterns (S440).

More specifically, the mobile terminal recognizes a plurality of reference touch surfaces (S410), recognizes touches of a plurality of identification areas included in the pattern recognition area located between the reference touch surfaces (S420) Using the touch recognition result value for the pattern recognition area, touch pattern information is generated (S430). Then, the mobile terminal provides the content of the touch pattern information (S440).

As described above, the pattern recognition area is divided into a plurality of identification areas, and the size and shape of each of the plurality of identification areas may be the same. The mobile terminal can recognize a touch of a touch input device including a barcode type touch pattern.

In this case, according to the embodiment, the reference touch unit of the touch input device may include at least two of the first to third reference touch units, and the second reference touch unit may be different in size or shape from the first reference touch unit And the second and third reference touch parts may be positioned adjacent to each other. That is, in the mobile terminal, a plurality of reference touch surfaces may include first to third reference touch surfaces, and as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the second reference touch surface includes a first reference touch surface The size or shape may be different, and the second and third reference touch surfaces may be positioned adjacent to each other.

5 and 6, which represent a touch region of a touch input device and a pattern recognition region in a mobile terminal, FIG. 5B shows a touch input device 180 (FIG. 5A) And the user touches the mobile terminal. When the touch input device rotates 180 degrees, it can be seen that the area to be touched by the mobile terminal changes. When the mobile terminal recognizes the touch of the identification area in the left-to-right direction and generates the touch recognition result value, the touch recognition result value of FIGS. 5 (a) and 5 Can vary.

Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to generate a constant touch recognition result value regardless of the touch direction of the touch input device by determining the arrangement order of the touch recognition result values according to the size, shape, or number of reference touch surfaces. 5 and 6A, the mobile terminal recognizes a touch on the identification area in the order corresponding to the directions of the second reference touch faces 520 and 620 on the first reference touch faces 510 and 610 The touch recognition result value can be generated.

That is, the touch recognition result values included in the touch pattern information are recognized in the order corresponding to the directions from the first reference touch surfaces 510 and 610 to the second reference touch surfaces 520 and 620, It is possible to show a result. In FIG. 5, the shape of the second reference touch surface 520 is different from the first reference touch surface 510, and the size of the second reference touch surface 620 in FIG. 6 (a) ). Because the first and second reference touch surfaces 510 and 610 and the second reference touch surfaces 520 and 620 are different in size or shape, the mobile terminal may touch the second reference touch surface 520 , 620) of the first and second channels.

6B, the mobile terminal displays the first reference touch surface 640 or the third reference touch surface 650 on the first reference touch surface 630 in an order corresponding to the directions of the second reference touch surface 640 or the third reference touch surface 650 The touch recognition result value can be generated. That is, the touch recognition result values included in the touch pattern information are identified in the order corresponding to the direction from the first reference touch surface 630 to the second reference touch surface 640 or the third reference touch surface 650 A result of recognizing a touch on the area can be displayed.

In FIG. 6B, the second and third reference touch surfaces 640 and 650 are adjacent to each other and are spaced apart from the first reference touch surface 630. That is, the distances 640 and 650 of the second and third reference touch surfaces are shorter than the distance between the first reference touch surface 630 and the first reference touch surface 630, respectively. The mobile terminal can determine the arrangement order of the touch recognition result values by checking the distances between the first to third reference touch surfaces 630, 640 and 650. [

As a result, according to the present invention, by generating the touch pattern information using the reference touch surface, the touch pattern information can be generated by recognizing the touch pattern irrespective of the touch direction of the touch input device.

Meanwhile, according to the embodiment, the mobile terminal according to the present invention can recognize a touch on a plurality of identification areas included in a pattern recognition area adjacent to a reference touch surface. Then, using the touch recognition result value for the pattern recognition area, the touch pattern information is generated, and the content for the touch pattern information can be provided.

FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining a pattern recognition method according to another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 7 illustrates a pattern recognition method according to the mobile terminal of FIG. 1 as an embodiment.

The pattern recognition method described in FIG. 7 is a method capable of generating the same touch pattern information for the same pattern regardless of the shape, shape, or number of reference touch points. In this case, the input device, that is, the barcode pattern part of the touch input device may include a pattern formed in a symmetrical structure with respect to the center.

For example, when the pattern of the touch input device is a left-right symmetrical structure, as shown in FIG. 7, among the areas (hatched areas) where touch is performed by the touch input device in the mobile terminal, It is symmetrical with respect to the center. The touch recognition result value included in the touch pattern information also becomes a symmetrical structure.

7, the result of the touch recognition according to the direction of the second reference touch surface 720 on the first reference touch surface 710 and the touch recognition result on the second reference touch surface 720 The result of touch recognition according to the direction of the one reference touch surface 710 is the same. For example, in FIG. 7A, the touch recognition result value is '11000011' regardless of the touch recognition direction, and in FIG. 7B, the touch recognition result value is '01011010' have.

As a result, according to the present invention, a touch pattern can be recognized and a content can be provided by using a touch input device including a pattern of a symmetric structure.

Meanwhile, since the touch recognition result value is symmetrical in FIG. 7, the same information is redundantly included. Accordingly, the mobile terminal according to the embodiment of the present invention calculates the touch recognition result value It is possible to provide the content for the touch pattern information. The predetermined area may be a left area or a right area divided based on the center of the pattern recognition area.

That is, the mobile terminal according to the present invention can provide contents by selectively using left or right touch recognition result values in the center of the touch recognition result value of the symmetric structure. For example, the mobile terminal may use the touch recognition result value for the first area 730 (left area) or the touch recognition result value for the second area 740 (right area).

At this time, the mobile terminal can compare the touch recognition result value of the first area 730 with the touch recognition result value of the second area 740, thereby verifying the error of the pattern recognition. When the touch recognition result value for the first area 730 and the touch recognition result value for the second area 740 are symmetrical, the mobile terminal displays the touch recognition result of the first area 730 or the second area 740 Value can be provided.

On the other hand, when one reference touch surface is used, the touch recognition result value may indicate the touch recognition result for the identification area in the order corresponding to the direction from the first identification area to the second identification area. Or in the order corresponding to the direction from the second identification area to the first identification area, the touch recognition result for the identification area. In this case, the first identification area may be an identification area located closer to the reference touch surface than the second identification area. That is, the direction in this case is the direction of the second reference touch surface 720 on the first reference touch surface 710 or the direction of the first reference touch surface 710 on the second reference touch surface 720. In an embodiment, the first identification area is the identification area closest to the reference touch surface, and the second identification area is the identification area furthest from the reference touch surface.

When the bar code pattern portion is a pattern having a symmetrical structure as shown in FIG. 7, since the touch recognition result values are the same regardless of the touch recognition direction as described above, the pattern can be recognized using one reference touch surface.

FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining a pattern recognition method according to another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 8 illustrates a pattern recognition method according to the mobile terminal of FIG. 1 as an embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 8, the pattern recognition area may be a plurality of patterns, and the barcode pattern part of the touch input device may correspond to a plurality of pattern recognition areas. In Fig. 8, the case where four reference touch surfaces and two pattern recognition areas are used will be described as an embodiment. Correspondingly, the touch input device may include four reference touch parts and two bar code pattern parts.

As shown in Fig. 8 (a), the areas (hatched portions) in which the touch is recognized in the pattern recognition areas 810 and 820 are the same. That is, the two barcode pattern portions of the touch input device may include the same pattern. The mobile terminal according to the present invention can compare the touch pattern information with respect to each of the pattern recognition areas 810 and 820 to provide contents for the touch pattern information. Similar to the error verification method described in FIG. 7, the mobile terminal can check whether the touch pattern information for each of the pattern recognition areas 810 and 820 is the same, and provide the same contents if they are the same.

8B, the area (hatched portion) in which the touch is recognized in the pattern recognition area may not be the same. That is, the two barcode pattern portions of the touch input device may include different patterns. Therefore, as the two barcode pattern portions include different patterns, more patterns can be generated, and more contents can be provided.

On the other hand, one pattern of the touch input device used in Fig. 8 (a) can be divided into two patterns. Therefore, the touch pattern information for the pattern recognition area 810 in Fig. 8A is the same as the touch pattern information for the pattern recognition area 830 in Fig. 8C.

That is, the smaller the identification area included in one pattern identification area, the larger the size of the identification area, and the pattern recognition rate can be further improved. Instead of increasing the identification area for one pattern identification area, two pattern identification areas can be used.

FIG. 9 is a view for explaining a content providing method according to another embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 10 is a diagram showing identification values allocated to a pattern identification area according to another embodiment of the present invention. In Fig. 9, a content providing method of the mobile terminal illustrated in Fig. 1 is described as an embodiment.

The mobile terminal according to the present invention recognizes the first and second reference touch planes (S910), and the mobile terminal includes a plurality of (first) and second reference touch planes included in the pattern recognition area located between the first and second reference touch planes The touch for the identification area is recognized (S920). Then, in step S930, the touch pattern information including the identification value of the identification area in which the touch is recognized is generated, and the content for the touch pattern information is provided in step S940.

At this time, the identification value assigned to each of the plurality of identification regions may be an identification value assigned to be symmetrical with respect to the center of the pattern recognition region as shown in FIG. Therefore, the first touch pattern information when the touch recognition order for the identification area is performed from the left to the right and the second touch pattern information when the right to left touch patterns are symmetrical to each other. In the case of a symmetric structure, the first and second touch pattern information include the same identification value.

For example, in FIG. 10, the first touch pattern information for the pattern recognition area (hatched portion) is 'DFE' and the second touch pattern information is 'EFD'. Therefore, the mobile terminal can provide the contents by judging 'DFE' and 'EFD' as the same touch pattern information. In one embodiment, the mobile terminal can provide the contents using the information about the identification value of the symmetric structure and the table in which the content for the identification value of the symmetric structure is matched.

As described above, the mobile terminal recognizes the touch in the pattern recognition area between the reference touch faces, and recognizes the identification value for the identification area in which the touch is recognized from the first reference touch face to the second reference touch face direction And generates second touch pattern information arranged in the order corresponding to the first reference touch surface direction on the second reference touch surface.
