Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a portable electronic device and a method of controlling the same, and more particularly to a portable electronic device and a method thereof for non-contact control. [Prior Art] In the current portable electronic device technology, the contact-controlled portable electronic device has been developed to be quite mature. As shown in FIG. 1 , it is a schematic diagram of the appearance of a conventional touch-controlled portable electronic device. The user uses the finger 12 to slide in different directions on the touch screen 141 of the portable electronic device 14 , or With different degrees of pressing, the touch screen 141 receives a specific signal and then performs a corresponding function to be activated. However, different touch screens also have different control mechanisms during operation. For example, when the touch screen of the portable electronic device is a resistively controlled touch screen, the user's finger When the screen is touched, the transmission of the partial wave is blocked, and the relative energy attenuation detected by the detecting unit disposed inside the portable electronic device is provided to the software for calculation to further locate the coordinate of the finger. . Another common touch mechanism is capacitive touch. Although it is equivalent to the resistive design, it mainly uses the inner and outer conductive layers to generate a uniform low-voltage electric field. When the finger touches the screen, it will be on the outer conductive layer. The electric field generates capacitive coupling, and a small current is drawn, and the detecting electrode is responsible for measuring the current at each corner to calculate the coordinates of the finger. Referring to FIG. 1 again, the touch screen 141 must be directly contacted with the touch screen 141 by using a 6 200928865 contact body (eg, the user's finger 12) to enable the portable electronic device 14 to The sensing unit 142 senses the direction in which the user's finger 12 is actuated and the length of time the button is pressed, and transmits the signals to the processing unit 143 for further determination and execution of the corresponding function to be activated. The contact body required by the touch method of different mechanisms is not completely the same. For the resistive touch mechanism, the contact body can be an electrical conductor or a non-conducting body. However, for a capacitive touch mechanism, the contact is The body must be electrically conductive to absorb small currents and cause a slight change in the current distribution. Since the contact body often slides on the touch screen 141, a lot of traces remain on the surface of the touch screen 141. For example, when the user uses the finger 12 as a contact body, the surface of the touch screen 141 that has been used for a long time will be A plurality of fingerprints 161 or scratches 162 remain, thus affecting the aesthetics and even the touch function of the portable electronic device 14. Therefore, how to provide a portable electronic device and a non-contact control method thereof can be controlled by a non-contact screen, that is, the Q can be controlled to perform a corresponding function to be activated, and the appearance of the screen is not preserved to ensure the appearance. In view of the above problems, it is an object of the present invention to provide a portable electronic device and a method for non-contact control thereof, which are output by a wireless method. The wireless signal receives and rejects the refraction signal of the signal, and after comparing and outputting the refracted wireless signal, the corresponding starting function 200928865 can be found and executed according to the comparison table. Therefore, the Sushan & error is detected by the user's effective action/stopping action within the distance of the portable electronic device, so the corresponding function is not required to be activated, and there is no need to directly or not This will detract from the residual traces of the control function after the use of the curtain, in order to achieve the above purpose, - to be willing / 6 4 (according to this Mao Mingzhi - kind of portable current Leigong installation, which includes - launch unit, - The sensing unit and the electronic device are equipped with a processing unit, wherein the _ two dumps are 7L early and the Ύ processing is electrically coupled to the salt metering unit. The unit and the transmitting unit are fired. ^ 耵 兀 以 以 以 以 以 以 以 以 以 以 以 以 以 ο ο ο ο ο ο ο ο ο ο ο ο ο ο ο ο ο ο ο ο 而 ο 而 而 而 而 而 而 而 而 而 而 而 而 而 而 而兀 (4) Refracting the look-up table to find and execute the corresponding function to be activated. The wireless signal may be an electromagnetic wave signal or a light wave signal. Meanwhile, according to the method of non-contact control of the present invention, it may be used to control the 4 stable type. Electronic device. This The method of contact control comprises the steps of: outputting a wireless signal in a wireless T mode; wirelessly receiving the refracted wireless signal; and comparing the rounded and refracted non-wire signal to one The refracting reference table finds and executes a corresponding function to be activated, wherein the wireless signal can be an electromagnetic wave signal or a light wave signal. According to the above, a configurable electronic device and a method thereof for non-contact control of the present invention It uses a wireless method to output and receive wireless signals, and finds the corresponding function to be activated in the refracting table according to the result of comparing the two signals. Finally, the processing unit is used to perform the function to be activated. In the present invention, the wireless method can be used to confirm the user's action within the effective sensing distance of the portable electronic device, so that no touch screen is required, that is, 200928865 can be used to enable the portable electronic device to switch differently. Compared with the conventional technology, the function of the hair is caused by traces on the screen and the disc is beautiful, and the long-term use will not detract from the control function. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, a portable electronic device and a method of non-contact control thereof according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein the same elements will be described with the same reference numerals. 2 is a block diagram showing the operation of the portable electronic device of FIG. 2, and FIG. 4 is a flow chart of a non-contact control method that can be used for charging and setting. 4, first, in Figure 2: a = preferred embodiment - portable (four) set = coupled to the transmitting unit ί42 early; ° 245. Its A 'processing unit 245 is electrically based on the Q 4 unit 243 and storage unit 244. In the middle, portable === method: know 'first, TM type to take a round ^, hair shot early 242 series use wireless side unit (four) line signal 1; continue 'in step s', sense The wireless of the measured refraction, 妒::: is received in correspondence with the output wireless signal I - and finally - in step S3, the wireless information table of the storage unit 244 causes the processing unit to be 5 in the comparison. Now I and the refracted wireless signal 244 并 并 执行 执行 四 四 钱 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 Signal worker. Alternatively, the transmitting unit 242 outputs the wireless signal in a wireless manner only when the portable electronic device 24 is in an active state, and the wireless signal output is more detailed when the user utilizes an object within the effective sensing distance. = in order to block the output of the wireless signal Ϊ the direction of travel and perform a specific direction of motion 'will cause the refracted from the object 22 wireless signal & refracted back to the sensing unit 243, and the sensing unit such as the wireless signal 11 'The wireless ray number R (for example, the difference in wavelength or intensity of the signal) refracted by the output wireless signal 1 ”, and according to the obtained alignment result, the corresponding refractory pair (10) is sought to be activated. The function, according to which the function to be activated is displayed and displayed on the screen 241. Therefore, it is not necessary to directly contact the screen 241 of the portable electronic device μ to switch the function, so that the accounting is in the process of operation 241 remains any trace to ensure aesthetics. The object 22 described above can be oriented in a direction perpendicular to the screen 241, or horizontally in the direction of the screen 241 & to perform a particular gesture or action; The portable electronic device 24 can be switched to different functions to be activated according to the distance moved by the object 22 or the amplitude of the movement. The above-mentioned function to be activated can be selected from the setting mode, the communication mode, the multimedia mode, and the data processing mode. The group of the mode and the application mode may be used by the processing unit 245 of the portable electronic device 24 to compare (eg, calculate or determine) the difference between the output wireless signal and the refracted wireless signal meter. It can also be executed by other judging elements. 200928865 In addition, the sensing unit according to different mechanisms has a corresponding operation mode. For example, when the sensing unit 243 is a microwave sensor, due to the output wireless signal I and the refraction The wireless signal R is an electromagnetic wave signal, so when the processing unit 245 compares the output wireless signal I and the refracted wireless signal R, it compares based on the wavelength relationship between the two signals. In contrast, when the sensing unit is In the photo sensor, since the output wireless signal I and the refracted wireless signal R are all optical signals, the processing unit 245 outputs the comparison. The wireless signal I and the refracted wireless signal R are compared based on the intensity relationship between the two signals. Although the above two implementations propose two different signals, regardless of the signal type, the processing unit 245, which is a difference between the wireless signal I outputted and the refracted wireless signal R, so as to find a corresponding function to be activated in the refracting table 244a, and execute the function to be activated. Therefore, the various signal types are considered to be one of the various embodiments of the present invention, and are not to be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. It is to be noted that the embodiment of the function to be activated is not limited to the invention. Please refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 5A to FIG. 5D simultaneously, which are respectively schematic diagrams of the non-contact controlled portable electronic device of the present invention, which are corresponding to the function to be activated under different motion control within the effective sensing distance, and the applied functions thereof. The non-contact controlled portable electronic device is exemplified by microwave control. As shown in FIG. 5A, when the object 22 (for example, the user's finger) is above the screen 241 of the portable electronic device 24, it moves in a direction that is gradually closer to the screen 241 in a direction perpendicular to the screen 241 11 200928865. The object 22 performs a pressing action, so that the wireless signal I that is rotated for the screen 241 reaches the object 22, and the line from the transmitting unit 242 is "returned to the sensing unit 243, and the refraction is not The direction of the screen 241 is shifted, so that the refracted object '22 is different from the wireless signal length of the refracted wireless signal j at the wavelength close to the number R. The processing unit 245 compares the radio signal from the transmitting unit 2 Ο 〇 signal I and the refracted received from the sensing unit 243 to obtain a wireless pair of outputs to obtain a ratio of the output wireless signal to the refracted 唬R. And further searching for the wavelength function of the angle R in the refraction table 244a. For example, when the portable electronic device 24 is in a state to be activated, since the screen is pressed in the multimedia mode corresponding to the screen 241, the processing unit 245 outputs the output according to the action of the refraction (four) line signal= The wavelength of the wireless signal I is changed, and the wavelength of the ^ is determined, and the processing unit ice performs the function of "playing" in the refraction table according to the action, thereby enabling the portable electronic device to play in the multimedia mode. By performing the "press" action to perform the playback sound halfway.
