If the user performs the sliding touch operation in the four directions by pressing a shift key while pressing the consonant key, Korean vowels, ya, yeo, yu and yo, are inputted. If the user performs a sliding curve touch operation in a clockwise direction at the end of the linear touch, the rest Korean vowels, ae, e, wi and oe, are inputted.

Description

Method for inputting information useful in touch screen}

The present invention relates to an information input method suitable for a touch screen, and more particularly, to an information input method suitable for a touch screen that can easily and efficiently input various types of information using a sliding touch and a multi-touch.

Recently, the utilization of the touch screen has been greatly increased. Since the touch screen does not use a separate keyboard but the touch screen also serves as a keyboard, the input key does not protrude like a general keyboard but is on the screen. Therefore, after touching one point, the sliding touch extending the touch point without releasing the hand is possible, and at the same time, the multi-touch of the other point is possible with the other hand.

If the sliding touch is used as one information input method in addition to the classical one-point touch, a large number of information can be differentiated and input. Adding a multi-touch function can effectively differentiate and input more information. Nevertheless, a systematic information input method using sliding touch and multi-touch has not been developed yet.

Accordingly, the technical problem to be achieved by the present invention is to determine the direction and shape of the sliding touch as input information, and to efficiently and easily input information such as letters and symbols on the touch screen in various ways. The purpose of the present invention is to provide an information input method suitable for a touch screen capable of differentiating and inputting more information by combining functions.

The information input method according to the present invention for achieving the above technical problem, when the line input is made by the sliding touch extending in each of the four directions of east, west, north and south without releasing after starting the touch at a point on the touch screen Characterized in that different information is input.

At this time, even if the input line by the sliding touch is input while changing the direction without breaking, the processing occurs by inputting information defined in the coordinates of the touch start point, and sliding occurs by touching one point again after the input line by the sliding touch is disconnected. The touch is preferably treated as input of information defined in the coordinate of the touched point.

When the shift key is touched together with the sliding touch, it is preferable to input information different from the case where only the sliding touch is made. The shift key may be provided in plural places. In this case, it is preferable to input different information according to the number of simultaneous touches of the shift key.

Next, when the sliding touch is subjected to the sliding bending touch in the clockwise or counterclockwise direction at the end of the touch, it is preferable that different information is input for each clockwise and counterclockwise direction.

In the case of Hangul input, a point (·) may be incidentally input when the Korean consonant defined in the coordinates of the touch start point is input and the sliding is made at the moment when a touch is made at the touch start point. In this case, when the sliding touch is made in the vertical direction, "-" is input, and when the sliding touch is made in the horizontal direction, "l" is preferably input. When the sliding is toward the north, the point (·) is "-". Is taken at the top of "-" changes to " ㅗ ", and the sliding faces south, "-" is taken under "-" When the point (·) is stamped to the right of "l" and "l" changes to "ㅏ", and the sliding faces west, the point (·) is stamped to the left of "l" and "l" is set to "ㅓ". It is desirable to change.

 If the sliding is returned and the line segment is repeated, it is preferable that "-" or "l" is input by touch of the shift key if the dot (.) Is erased and the shift key is also touched at this time.

According to the present invention, since the direction and shape of the sliding touch are determined as input information, various information such as letters and symbols can be efficiently and easily input on the touch screen. In addition, by combining the functions of multi-touch by touching a plurality of shift keys, more information can be differentiated and input.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following examples are only presented to understand the content of the present invention, and those skilled in the art will be capable of many modifications within the technical spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should not be construed as limited to these embodiments.

1 is a view for explaining the information input method of the touch screen according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1A, after touching the consonant "ㅇ" key and performing a straight line sliding in four directions of east (E), west (W), south (S), and north (N) without taking your hands off, "A", "uh", "right" and "o" are respectively inputted.

As shown in FIG. 1B, after touching the consonant "ㅇ" key and touching the shift key without releasing, the east (E), west (W), south (S), north When the linear straight touch in the four directions of (N) is performed, "ya", "fe", "yu" and "yo" are respectively inputted.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 1C, after touching the consonant "ㅇ" key, the linear touch sliding in the four directions of east (E), west (W), south (S), and north (N) is released. And when the bending bending touch in the clockwise direction at the end of the straight line "Ae", "in", "up", "out" is input.

2 is a view for explaining various types of sliding touch. As shown in FIG. 2, after touching a point, a sliding straight touch extending each of the touch points in four directions of east, west, north, and south without touching their hands is judged as input of different information for each of the four directions. Input information can be represented. That is, the number of input information Ns at the time of sliding straight line touch is four.

In addition, when the sliding straight touch is touched by the sliding bending touch in the clockwise or counterclockwise direction at the end of the straight line and is determined as input of different information for each clockwise and counterclockwise direction, a total of eight input information can be expressed. . That is, the number of input information for the sliding bending touch after the sliding straight line touch is eight. The shape of the sliding bending touch may vary, and Na, Nk, Nc, Nb, and Nm show various types of sliding bending touches.

When the number of input information by the sliding touch represented by FIG. 2 is Nx, Nx = Ns + Na + Nk + Nc + Nb + Nm = 44. In addition, considering the touch of the shift key as described in FIG. 1B, the total number of input information N (total) = Nx X 2 = 88 pieces. If two shift keys are installed and one shift key is touched and two shifts are multi-touched, then information is inputted. In this case, the total number of input information N (total) = Nx X 3 = 132 It becomes a dog.

The function of the shift key may be achieved by touching the designated coordinates, or may recognize the multi-touch number by counting the number of touch points even if the coordinates are out of the designated coordinates.
