Description
BACKGROUND OF THE
An e-book is a bundle of information, usually accompanied by multimedia elements such as sound, motion, as well as text (letters) that convey information. With the popularization of smart phones and the development of information and communication networks, the size of e-book market is increasing day by day.
However, unlike ordinary paper books, e-books still can not feel the textures by hand. Those who prefer to obtain predetermined information, such as pages of paper books, from such touch or feel are still negative about reading with e-books to be. This is because a kind of "tactile feedback" given by a paper book can not be felt in an electronic book terminal.
The lexical meaning of the feedback is the response action according to the action that a person puts on an object, another person, etc. This can also be combined with reading. A representative example of the feedback that can be displayed in the e-book terminal may be to inform the user of the state of the terminal or the user. Currently, most e-book terminals give feedback through visual and auditory depending on the user's behavior or terminal condition.
However, even though many e-book terminals provide feedback through visual and auditory feedback, people still want "tactile feedback" from a paper book. "Tactile feedback" refers to making the remaining amount of a book through the thickness of a paper book, etc., and the position of the book itself read naturally.
Therefore, in order to increase the satisfaction of e-book users and to raise awareness of the convenience and usefulness of e-books for people who still prefer paper books, the "tactile feedback" Technology is required to develop the technology.

Hereinafter, the adjustment of the page flipping sound according to the embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 6. FIG.
The first flipping sound, which will be described below, refers to the flipping sound that occurs when flipping to jump from the
First, FIG. 3 shows that the frequency of the page flipping sound is adjusted according to the number of remaining pages during page flipping.
3, the book content can be displayed on the
The frequency may be set within the audible frequency range at the production stage of the electronic
In one embodiment, the second flipping sound may be configured to output a flipping sound having a frequency higher than the first flipping sound, and as the number of remaining pages decreases, that is, as the page continues to pass, And the frequency of the third flipping sound may be configured to output the flipping sound having the highest frequency in the frequency range set by the user in the production step of the user or the
Accordingly, as the number of remaining pages is reduced, a flipping sound in which the frequency is gradually increased occurs, so that the user will be able to recognize how much of the remaining page is remaining even after hearing the sound.
Fig. 4 shows that the amplitude of the page flipping sound is adjusted according to the number of remaining pages during page flipping.
Referring to Fig. 4, the amplitude may be set in advance in the production step of the
In one embodiment, the second flipping sound may be configured to output a flipping sound having an amplitude less than the first flipping sound, and the less the remaining number of pages, i.e., The frequency of the third flipping sound may be configured to output a flipping sound having the smallest amplitude in the amplitude range set by the user in the production step of the user or the
Thus, as the number of remaining pages decreases, a flipping sound is generated that increases in amplitude, so that the user will be able to recognize how much of the remaining page is remaining even after hearing only the sound.
FIG. 5 shows that the duration of the page flipping sound is adjusted according to the number of remaining pages in page flipping.
Referring to FIG. 5, the duration may be set in advance in the production stage of the
In one embodiment, the second flipping sound may be configured to output a flipping sound having a duration less than the first flipping sound, and as the number of remaining pages decreases, that is, So that the duration of the third flipping sound is controlled so that the flipping sound having the smallest duration in the duration time set by the user in the production stage of the user or the electronic
Accordingly, as the number of remaining pages is reduced, a flipping sound having a longer duration is generated, so that the user will be able to recognize how much of the remaining page is remaining even after hearing only the sound.
FIG. 6 shows that the repetition period of the page flipping sound is adjusted according to the number of remaining pages in page flipping.
Referring to FIG. 6, the repetition period may be set in advance in the production step of the
In one embodiment, the second flipping sound may be configured to output a flipping sound having a repetition period less than the first flipping sound, and as the number of remaining pages decreases, that is, So that the repetition period of the third flipping sound is set so that the flipping sound having the smallest repetition period in the repetition period range set by the administrator in the user or the electronic
The embodiment shown in FIG. 6 may be applied to a case where it is desired to output a repetitive flipping sound instead of a flipping sound having a single sound.
Accordingly, as the number of remaining pages decreases, a flipping sound in which the repetition period becomes longer is generated, so that the user will be able to recognize how much the remaining page remains even after hearing the sound.
The above embodiments, that is, the sound in which the frequency, the amplitude, the duration, or the repetition period is changed may be configured such that each component is overlapped to generate sound. In other words, when the number of remaining pages is relatively large, not only low-frequency sound may be generated, but low-frequency and long-cycle sound may be generated. Sound may be generated. This may be configured such that the user can not arbitrarily change the setting after being set by the administrator in the production step, or may be configured so that the user can select and change each component of the sound.
FIG. 7 is a conceptual diagram illustrating that a flipping sound generated according to a page to be flipped is adjusted according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG.
Referring to FIG. 7, the user of the
As described above in the embodiment for generating different sounds according to the number of remaining pages, the sounds varying in the above-mentioned embodiments, that is, the frequency, the amplitude, the duration or the repetition period, . In other words, when the number of remaining pages is relatively large, not only low-frequency sound may be generated, but low-frequency and long-cycle sound may be generated. Sound may be generated. This may be configured such that the user can not arbitrarily change the setting after being set by the administrator in the production step, or may be configured so that the user can select and change each component of the sound.
FIG. 8 is a conceptual diagram showing that the flipping sound generated according to the direction of flipping is adjusted according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG.
8, the user of the
Also in the case of the embodiment described with reference to FIG. 8, as described in the embodiment for generating different sounds according to the number of remaining pages described above, the above embodiments, that is, the frequency, amplitude, The sound whose repetition period is changed may be configured so that each component is overlapped to generate a sound. In other words, when the number of remaining pages is relatively large, not only low-frequency sound may be generated, but low-frequency and long-cycle sound may be generated. Sound may be generated. This may be configured such that the user can not arbitrarily change the setting after being set by the administrator in the production step, or may be configured so that the user can select and change each component of the sound.
The flipping sound as an embodiment of the present invention is a concept that can include any sounds that can be perceived through the auditory sense of the user. In particular, information about the number of remaining pages through voice, Information or information about the flipping direction. The sound may be a sound stored in the rechargeable
