根據本發明提供了一種用控 μ „ 用㈣顯/|、咨上選單之影像控 制不,,先’該影像控制系統包括: :選單’該選單被配置成環路内複數個同時顯示的選 单項目, :單中挑選項目的選擇器’該環路與選擇器 對移動;及, 使用者輸人裝置,該使用者輸人裝置將來自使用者的指 令輸入以從選單中選擇選單項目’其中該使用者輸入裝置 包括控制裝置以產生將環路與選擇器彼此相對移動之#制 信號’該控制裝置有環路組態,^繞著控制裝置料组 態的移動造成選擇器與選單環路之間對應的相對移動。 本發明提供一種影像控制系統以控制選單或選擇器繞著 選單旋轉,其中該選單係由配置在環路内的許多個同:顯 示的項目構成。控制裝置的環路組態與選單項目的環路間 之關聯讓使用者可直覺地繞著項目選單航行並選擇所需的 項目0 較佳的是,選單以諸如轉盤的三維影像方式顯示。在一 種範例中,選單本身旋轉且在顯示選單之顯示器上提供一 選擇器區域。在一種替代方案範例中,選單維持靜止而選 擇器被配置成因應於控制信號繞著環路移動的游標。 藉著控制使用者輸入裝置,使用者可相對地移動選單與 選擇器區域,有效地旋轉轉盤以使顯示在顯示器上的選擇 器區域内之項目可在任何時間點上被控制。 在一種範例中,控制裝置是可旋轉控制器,其中控制哭 545062 A7 B7 五、發明説明(3 ) 的旋轉造成選單的對應旋轉。在另一種範例中,控制裝置 包括環狀壓力墊以接收來自使用者的壓力並產生對應於壓 力墊上施加壓力之角度位置的控制信號。 較佳的是’使用者輸入裝置包括至少一個力量感測電阻 裔以接收來自使用者的力量並據以產生控制信號。使用螢 幕上轉盤連同使用具有力量感測電阻器的使用者輸入裝置 讓使用者可在任何時間直覺地控制並選擇顯示在螢幕上的 項目,藉此簡化項目挑選程序。 現在參考附圖詳細描述本發明之範例,諸附圖中: 圖1顯示具有根據本發明之影像控制系統的電視與遙控單 元之示意圖;且,> 圖2顯示根據本發明之行動電話的示意圖。 圖1顯不具有根據本發明之影像控制系統的電視與遙控單 元之示意圖。該電視有傳統螢幕2和被配置以實施影像控制 系統的遂控單元4。在本範例中,遙控單元4具有被用以控 制螢幕2上選單之位置或移動的旋轉控制裝置6。 士下文所述者,^使用者藉著譬如壓下專用按短$或僅藉 著壓下控制裝置6而選擇遙控單元4上的一個選單功能時, 選單呈現在電視的螢幕2上。在此範例中,選單的形式是具 有許多項目10的三維轉盤3,每個項目被安排以顯示關聯於 一特定電視頻道或諸如電視、網際網路、隨選視訊等資訊 種類的影像。選單項目也可為諸如音量、對比或彩色等電 視系統的控制功能。任何形式的選單只要是能造成連續操 控的連續形狀都很適合。適當形狀的其他範例還包括二維 -6 -
545062 A7 B7 五、發明説明(4 圓或橢圓。選單項目不一定要形成完整環路且若選單内有 間隙也不會影響控制系統的操作。在圖1 +所示範例内,搜 擇器區域12被提供在螢幕上相當於轉盤3之最前方部分的: 置處。 ‘ 為了要切換電視頻道,使用者須旋轉轉盤3以使被選擇的 頻道影像顯示在選擇器區域12内。—旦完成此工作,被選 擇的影料轉換到電視的主螢幕2。因為在任何時點上經常 只有單-個頻道顯示在電視螢幕2上,使用者首先須將選單 ·:'喚起1螢幕2上。這可譬如藉由壓下控制裝置6或藉由 壓下遙控器4上的專用按紐來完成。 如下文所說明者,控制裝置6須為可造成在遙控單元4上 的環路組態上連續移動—譬如圓形移動—以對應選單或 特定選單項目標明之游標在螢幕2上的旋轉移動之控制裝見 。在-種範例t ’使用者旋轉控制裝置6的外殼,該旋轉動 作由遙控單元4内提供的感測器裝置檢測。任何其他適當 式的位置編碼器可被使用以決定由裝置6產生的控制信號 控制螢幕上選單之移動與旋轉。 、在-種替代方案範例中,控制裝置可為環狀壓力敏感 、讓使用者手‘在控制裝置上的滑動可由感測器裝置檢 並對應到螢幕2上轉,盤的移動。 在上述兩種範例中,控制裝置均有環路組態以與轉盤3有 /關聯。這在,中以點Xl,X2, YiH2顯示。控制裝置6透過 從點Xl到X2的45度角度旋轉將造成轉盤3的對應旋轉,以使螢 幕2上的點Yl移動到點Y2。此關聯讓使用者可直覺控制選單 裝 以 置 形 以 墊 測 訂 線 Α4規格(210 X 297公釐) 545062 A7 一 _____ B7 五、發明説明(5 ) ,從而簡化選單項目挑選程序。 影像轉盤的產生由電視本身内的電路(未顯示)及/或軟體 控制。電視有持續從所有可用電視頻道接收信號之接收器( 未顯示)。一般會根據使用者的選擇有單一個頻道被選擇並 顯示在螢幕2上。在本發明中,當因應於來自遙控單元4之 信號而被啟動時,螢幕上選單項目轉盤3由電視内的電路產 生。產生此種顯示的適當系統細節揭橥在以新力公司(s〇ny
Corporation)為名的歐洲專利申請案(Eur〇peail patent
Application)EP0,767,418中,該案的内容在此附呈供卓參。 在此文件中使用預先程式化的中央處理單元產生圖形以在 顯示器上產生轉盤效果。 在本發明的一種範例中,為了要達成螢幕上轉盤與遙控 裔4的控制裝置6間之關聯,使用了一個或更多個力量感測 電阻器。以INTERLINK ELECTRONICS INC.公司為受讓人 的編號W095/16975國際專利申請案(internati〇nai patent application)揭橥一種適合使用在本發明中的力量感測電阻 益衣置範例’但熟諸本技術領域者會知道其他的範例,該 專利案的内容附呈供卓參。 在W095/16975中揭橥的裝置内提供四個力量感測電阻器 的陣列,包括感測器基底、半導體層和配置在積體電路圖 樣内的電阻器。一與積體電路電阻器隔絕的共用電位被提 供。半導體層被配置成當沒有施加任何力量時不接觸任何 一個電阻器,但當使用者施加力量到陣列上一位置處時, 半導體層即在該位置處接觸電阻器圖樣,藉此將一個或更 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS) A4規格(210 X 297公釐) 545062
多個電阻器連接至共用電位。根據在陣列上施加力量的位 置產生輸出信號,藉此使該信號得以解碼並決定該位置 電視從遙控單元4接收該信號並據以決定轉盤3的轉動方向 。控制裝置6的移動造成力量感測電阻器所提供信號之改缴 ’該信號之改變被用來造成選單的對應移動。 在一種替代性具體實例中,當使用者操作控制裝置6時, 在選單螢幕上可看到有一跟隨轉盤内選單項目的游標(未顯 示)。換舌之,在此情況下轉盤3不因應於遙控單元4提供之 信號而旋轉,而是轉盤維持靜止且游標從一個項目順序移 動到另一個項目。游標可為被強調的背景或從選單内一個 項目移動到另一個項目之諸如星狀符號或滴答聲的實際符 號。 ’丁、 在本發明的兩種具體實例中均提供使用者介面,其有具 備可在完整圓週上接收輸入之輸入裝置的遙控單元。但是 可限制控制裝置的角度範圍在完整圓週的一部份,該圓週 部分一般對應於選單的角度範圍。此外,控制裝置不一定 要是連續的,亦即可不在角度範圍上提供連 ,而對固定數目個預定角度位置—㈣以辦角分隔 個位置一的每一個角度產生一信號。 圖2顯示根據本發明之行動電話手機15的示意圖。如上文 所述’本發明也可應用到行動電話選單上。圖2令電話手機 ,幕上的選單被顯示為二維圓形’但是顯然任何適當的選 I形式均可同樣地有效操作。撥號器16被提供在手機15的 月j表面,亦#手機包含諸如鍵板等傳統控亲㈣表面—上。 -9- 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS) A4規格(210X297公爱) " ----------
