Abstract
Description
本發明是有關於一種用於切換電子裝置的模式的方法,且特別是有關於一種電子裝置和用於喚醒電子裝置的方法。The present invention relates to a method for switching modes of an electronic device, and more particularly, to an electronic device and a method for waking up the electronic device.
在現有技術中,在頭戴式顯示器(head mounted display;HMD)閒置一段時間之後,HMD的作業系統可切換到省電模式(例如,休眠模式)以節省電力,而HMD可被喚醒以供用戶使用。In the prior art, after a head mounted display (HMD) has been idle for a period of time, the operating system of the HMD can switch to a power saving mode (eg, sleep mode) to save power, and the HMD can be woken up for the user use.
在不同情況中,可經由各種機制喚醒HMD。舉例來說,對於那些具有接近感測器的HMD,接近感測器可安置在HMD上的一些特定位置處以偵測用戶是否已經穿戴HMD。在這些情況下,當接近感測器被觸發(即,偵測到靠近接近感測器的某一物體)時,其可表示HMD已經由用戶穿戴,且HMD將被喚醒以供使用。In different situations, the HMD can be woken up via various mechanisms. For example, for those HMDs that have proximity sensors, the proximity sensors may be placed at some specific locations on the HMD to detect whether the user has worn the HMD. In these cases, when the proximity sensor is triggered (ie, an object is detected near the proximity sensor), it may indicate that the HMD has been worn by the user, and the HMD will be awakened for use.
然而,在某些情況下,上述機制可能是不準確的。舉例來說,若恰好有一些物體(例如,HMD的頭部綁帶)經過HMD的接近感測器附近的區域,則可能意外地觸發接近感測器,且可能不必要地喚醒HMD。However, in some cases, the above mechanism may be inaccurate. For example, if something happens to be passing an area near the HMD's proximity sensor (eg, the HMD's head strap), the proximity sensor may be accidentally triggered and the HMD may be unnecessarily awakened.
有鑑於此,本發明提供一種電子裝置和用於喚醒電子裝置的方法,其可用於解決上述技術問題。In view of this, the present invention provides an electronic device and a method for waking up the electronic device, which can be used to solve the above technical problems.

圖1是根據本發明之一示例性實施例繪示的電子裝置的功能方塊圖。在各種實施例中,電子裝置100可為HMD或其它類似智慧型裝置,但本發明不限於此。參考圖1,電子裝置100包含但不限於記憶體101、接近感測器102以及處理器104。電子裝置100可適用於VR、AR、MR、XR或其它與現實模擬有關的技術。FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram of an electronic device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. In various embodiments, the
記憶體101可以是任何類型的固定或可移動隨機存取記憶體(random-access memory;RAM)、唯讀記憶體(read-only memory;ROM)、快閃記憶體記憶體、類似裝置或上述裝置的組合。記憶體101記錄程式碼、裝置配置、緩衝資料或永久資料(例如使用者資料、訓練資料、情感分類器、情感決策、情感配置、加權關係、線性關係、情感組),且稍後將引入這些資料。The
接近感測器102可安置於電子裝置100上的一些特定位置上,以偵測電子裝置100附近是否存在物體,但本發明不限於此。The
處理器104耦接到記憶體101和接近感測器102。處理器104經配置以載入儲存在記憶體101中的程式碼,以執行本發明的示例性實施例的程式。The
在一些實施例中,處理器104可以是中央處理單元(central processing unit;CPU)、微處理器、微控制器、數位信號處理(digital signal processing;DSP)晶片、現場可程式設計閘陣列(field-programmable gate array;FPGA)。處理器104的功能也可通過獨立電子裝置或積體電路(integrated circuit;IC)來實施,且處理器104的操作也可通過軟體來實施。In some embodiments, the
在本發明的實施例中,處理器104可存取儲存於記憶體101中的程式碼和/或模組以實施本發明中所提供的用於喚醒電子裝置100的方法,所述方法將在下文進一步論述。In an embodiment of the present invention, the
參考圖2,其是根據本發明的實施例繪示的用於喚醒電子裝置的方法的流程圖。此實施例的方法可由圖1中的電子裝置100執行,且以下將輔以圖1中的元件說明圖2各步驟的細節。Referring to FIG. 2 , which is a flowchart of a method for waking up an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method of this embodiment may be performed by the
在本發明的實施例中,可假設電子裝置100處於省電模式(例如,休眠模式/睡眠模式)中。在一些實施例中,電子裝置100可裝設有作業系統且具有顯示器,且當電子裝置100處於省電模式中時,作業系統和顯示器可停用(例如,關閉)。舉例來說,當電子裝置100在工作模式中進行操作時,作業系統和顯示器可啟用(例如,打開),且當電子裝置100滿足一些特定條件(例如,閒置一段預定時間)時,處理器104可將電子裝置100切換到省電模式,但本發明不限於此。In an embodiment of the present invention, it may be assumed that the
之後,在步驟S210中,處理器104可判斷在電子裝置100處於省電模式的期間中,電子裝置100的接近感測器102是否被觸發。若是,則處理器104可執行步驟S220;否則處理器104可執行步驟S240。Then, in step S210, the
在步驟S220中,處理器104可判斷電子裝置100是否滿足移動條件。若是,則處理器104可執行步驟S230以將電子裝置100切換到工作模式。若否,則處理器104可執行步驟S240以將電子裝置100維持在省電模式中。In step S220, the
在第一實施例中,處理器104可判斷電子裝置100在預定時間區間(例如,30秒)內是否被移動。在各種實施例中,電子裝置104可基於一些特定技術,例如在預定時間區間內的時間點偵測到的6自由度(degree of freedom;DOF)值的變化而判定電子裝置100移動,但本發明不限於此。In the first embodiment, the
在第一實施例中,反應於判定電子裝置100在預定時間區間內移動,處理器104可判定電子裝置100滿足移動條件。另一方面,反應於判定電子裝置100在預定時間區間內未移動,處理器104可判定電子裝置100未滿足移動條件,但本發明不限於此。In the first embodiment, in response to determining that the
在第一實施例的一種情況下,處理器104可在判斷電子裝置100在預定時間區間內是否移動之前啟用電子裝置100的顯示器。另外,處理器104可反應於判定電子裝置100未滿足移動條件而停用電子裝置100的顯示器。也就是說,在第一實施例的某些情況下,若接近感測器102被觸發,則處理器104可首先開啟電子裝置100的顯示器,且接著判斷電子裝置100是否滿足移動條件。In one case of the first embodiment, the
若判定電子裝置100滿足移動條件,則表示使用者正在使用電子裝置100,且因此處理器104可隨後執行步驟S230以將電子裝置100切換到工作模式。由於電子裝置100的顯示器已經啟用,所以處理器104可啟用電子裝置100的作業系統以將電子裝置100切換到工作模式,但本發明不限於此。If it is determined that the
另一方面,若判定電子裝置100未滿足移動條件,則表示接近感測器102已被意外地觸發(即,使用者未使用電子裝置100),且因此處理器104可隨後執行步驟S240以將電子裝置100維持在省電模式中。由於電子裝置100的顯示器已經啟用,所以處理器104可相應地停用電子裝置100的顯示器以使電子裝置100維持在省電模式中,但本發明不限於此。On the other hand, if it is determined that the
因此,本發明的方法可反應於判定電子裝置100在省電模式期間中實際地被移動而將電子裝置100切換到工作模式。因此,可避免電子裝置100被意外地和不必要地喚醒,從而減少電子裝置100的電力消耗。Therefore, the method of the present invention can switch the
在第二實施例中,處理器104可控制電子裝置100的相機(例如,前置相機)以在電子裝置100切換到省電模式之前擷取第一影像。接著,反應於判定電子裝置100的接近感測器102在電子裝置100處於省電模式的期間中被觸發,處理器104可控制相機以擷取第二影像且判断第一影像是否匹配於第二影像。在各種實施例中,處理器104可反應於判定第一影像與第二影像之間的相似度高於預定相似度閾值而判定第一影像匹配於第二影像,但本發明不限於此。In the second embodiment, the
在一個實施例中,反應於判定第一影像匹配於第二影像,處理器104可判定電子裝置100未滿足移動條件。另一方面,反應於判定第一影像未匹配於第二影像,處理器104可判定電子裝置100滿足移動條件。In one embodiment, in response to determining that the first image matches the second image, the
詳細地說,第一影像可理解為在電子裝置100切換到省電模式之前的電子裝置100前面的視圖。因此,若在省電模式期間所擷取的第二影像匹配於第一影像,則表示電子裝置100在省電模式期間未移動。因此,處理器104可判定電子裝置100未滿足移動條件。In detail, the first image can be understood as a view of the front of the
另一方面,若在省電模式期間所擷取的第二影像未匹配於第一影像,則表示電子裝置100在省電模式期間中被移動。因此,處理器104可判定電子裝置100滿足移動條件,但本發明不限於此。On the other hand, if the second image captured during the power saving mode does not match the first image, it means that the
在第二實施例的一種情況下,處理器104可在控制相機擷取第二影像之前啟用電子裝置100的作業系統,同時維持停用電子裝置100的顯示器。在這種情況下,由於電子裝置100的作業系統已經啟用,因此處理器104可經由啟用電子裝置100的顯示器來將電子裝置100切換到工作模式。In one case of the second embodiment, the
另一方面,處理器104可經由停用電子裝置100的作業系統而使電子裝置100維持在省電模式中,但本發明不限於此。On the other hand, the
雖然本發明已以實施例揭露如上,然其並非用以限定本發明,任何所屬技術領域中具有通常知識者,在不脫離本發明的精神和範圍內,當可作些許的更動與潤飾,故本發明的保護範圍當視後附的申請專利範圍所界定者為準。Although the present invention has been disclosed above by the embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone with ordinary knowledge in the technical field can make some changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, The protection scope of the present invention shall be determined by the scope of the appended patent application.
