A preferred embodiment of the present invention is a display device operation interface. In this embodiment, the display device operation interface is configured to operate the display device to display a screen, and perform corresponding functions on the screen displayed by the display device according to different blowing modes and different rotation directions of the display device.

In fact, the display device of the present invention can be disposed on any electronic device or information processing device having a display function, such as a common smart phone, a tablet computer, etc., without particular limitation.

Please refer to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram of the operation interface of the display device of this embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the display device operation interface 1 is disposed in the display device E. The display device operation interface 1 is coupled to the display module 2. The display device operation interface 1 includes a blow sensor module 10, a gravity sensing module 12, a processing module 14, a control module 16, and an image capture module 18. The air-sensing module 10 is coupled to the gravity sensing module 12, the processing module 14 and the image capturing module 18; the gravity sensing module 12 is coupled to the processing module 14; The control module 16 is coupled to the display module 2; the image capture module 18 is coupled to the processing module 14.

In this embodiment, the display module 2 in the display device E displays a screen. When the air blowing sensing function of the display device E is activated, if the user starts the first blowing of the display device E, the display device operating interface 1 disposed in the display device E will pass through the air blowing sensing module. 10 senses the first blow. When the air blowing sensing module 10 senses the first air blowing, the gravity sensing module 12 senses whether the display device E is rotated at this time. If so, the gravity sensing module 12 measures the direction of rotation of the display device E. Then, the processing module 14 determines a screen moving direction of the screen displayed by the display module 2 according to the rotation direction of the display device E measured by the gravity sensing module 12.

That is to say, it is assumed that the user blows the display device E (as shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B) and simultaneously changes the angle at which the display device E is originally placed or held in a certain direction (for example, the display device E and the vertical The angle between the directions changes from M1 in Figure 2A to Figure 2B. In the M2), the display device operation interface 1 disposed in the display device E senses the direction in which the display device rotates, and determines the direction in which the user wants to move the screen displayed by the display module 2.

In practical applications, the air blowing sensing function of the display device E can be activated by long pressing a power button of the display device E or selecting a shortcut function button on the operation interface of one of the display devices E, but not limited thereto. The air blowing sensing module 10 can sense the first blowing by means of a microphone or other sound receiving device to receive the first blowing sound, but is not limited thereto. The gravity sensing module 12 can perform sensing of the rotation of the display device E and its rotation direction through components such as a gravity sensor or a gyroscope, but is not limited thereto.

After the user finishes the first blowing of the display device E, if the user continues to perform the second blowing on the display device E, the air blowing sensing module 10 senses one of the second blowing gases. The volume and the second blow maintain at least one blow duration. Then, the processing module 14 determines an initial acceleration of the screen displayed by the mobile display module 2 according to the blowing volume of the second blowing measured by the air blowing sensing module 10.

It should be noted that when the air blowing sensing module 10 starts to sense the second air blowing, the image capturing module 18 will capture an image in front of the display device E and determine whether there is a human face in the image. If the determination result is yes, the air blowing sensing module 10 continues to sense the second air blowing. If the determination result is no, the representative user is not located in front of the display device E, and the second insufflation sensed by the insufflation sensing module 10 is not formed by the user's insufflation, so the insufflation sensing module 10 stops. The second blowing gas is sensed.

After the processing module 14 determines the screen moving direction and the initial acceleration of the screen displayed by the display module 2 of the mobile display device E, the control module 16 displays the display module 2 according to the moving direction of the screen and the initial acceleration. The screen performs one of the functions.

In a practical application, the processing module 14 can also determine whether a blowing mode of the second blowing corresponds to a preset mode. If the determination result is yes, the control module 16 controls the display module 2 to execute one of the preset instructions corresponding to the preset mode. For example, the second blowing air blowing mode may include, but is not limited to, the blowing volume of the second blowing, the duration of the blowing, the direction of the blowing, and the number of blowing.

In addition, the user can also set the preset mode and its corresponding preset finger Order to facilitate the user's operating habits. For example, the user can set a preset mode for blowing the air toward the display device E once to represent a preset command for closing the window being operated in the screen displayed by the display module 2; or setting a rapid blowing of the air toward the display device E. The second preset mode represents a preset instruction for quickly scrolling up the screen displayed by the display module 2.

In a practical application, when the air blowing sensing module 10 senses the blowing volume and the blowing duration of the second blowing, the air blowing sensing module 10 can sense the second blowing in a first time. One of the first volume and the second volume of one of the second times. In this way, the processing module 14 can determine, according to the first volume of the second blowing air at the first time, the first acceleration of the screen displayed by the display module 2 in the moving direction of the screen on a standard axis, and according to the first The second volume of the second blowing current sensing display device E has a second acceleration on the coordinate axis.

Then, the processing module 14 further compares the second acceleration with the first acceleration to determine whether the second acceleration is equal to the first acceleration.

If the determination result of the processing module 14 is that the second acceleration is equal to the first acceleration, and the second blowing is stopped at a third time, the control module 16 controls the screen displayed by the display module 2 to stop sliding.

If the determination result of the processing module 14 is that the second acceleration is not equal to the first acceleration, the processing module 14 estimates one of the screens displayed by the display module 2 by subtracting the acceleration increase from the first acceleration by the second acceleration. Sliding speed. Since the second acceleration is not equal to the case where the first acceleration may be "the second acceleration is greater than the first acceleration" or the "second acceleration is less than the first acceleration", the following will be described separately.

If the second acceleration is greater than the first acceleration, the processing module 14 determines whether the acceleration increase of the second acceleration minus the first acceleration is greater than an increase amount preset value. If so, the processing module 14 determines that the screen moving direction is one of the first directions on the screen displayed by the display device E.

Assuming that the first direction determined by the processing module 14 is the bottom-up direction in the screen, the function performed by the control module 16 on the screen may be to move the screen from bottom to top (ie, as shown in FIG. 3A). The screen changes to the screen shown in Fig. 3B or a control menu is pulled from the bottom up (i.e., the screen shown in Fig. 3A is changed to the screen shown in Fig. 3C).

Assuming that the first direction determined by the processing module 14 is a left-to-right direction in the screen, the function performed by the control module 16 on the screen may be to move the screen from left to right (that is, as shown in FIG. 3A). The picture changes to the picture shown in FIG. 3D), selects a left function key (ie, the picture shown in FIG. 3E changes to the picture shown in FIG. 3F) or performs a turn to the next page (ie, by FIG. 3G) The screen shown becomes a function of the screen shown in Fig. 3H.

If the second acceleration is less than the first acceleration, the processing module 14 determines whether the acceleration reduction of the second acceleration minus the first acceleration is greater than a decrease preset value. If so, the processing module 14 determines that the screen moving direction is one of the second directions on the screen displayed by the display device E, and the second direction is opposite to the first direction.

Assuming that the second direction determined by the processing module 14 is from top to bottom in the picture, the function performed by the control module 16 on the picture may be to move the picture from top to bottom (ie, as shown in FIG. 3B). The picture changes to the picture shown in FIG. 3A or a state column is pulled down from the top (that is, the picture shown in FIG. 3A is changed to the picture shown in FIG. 3I).

Assuming that the second direction determined by the processing module 14 is a right-to-left direction in the screen, the function performed by the control module 16 on the screen may be to move the screen from right to left (that is, as shown in FIG. 3D The screen changes to the screen shown in FIG. 3A), selects a right function key (ie, the screen shown in FIG. 3E changes to the screen shown in FIG. 3J) or performs a flip back to the previous page (ie, by FIG. 3H). The screen shown becomes a function of the screen shown in Fig. 3G.

Another preferred embodiment of the present invention is a method of operating a display device. In this embodiment, the display device operation method is for operating the display device to display a screen, and performing corresponding functions on the screen displayed by the display device according to different blowing modes and different rotation directions of the display device.

Please refer to FIG. 4. FIG. 4 is a flow chart showing a method of operating the display device of this embodiment. As shown in FIG. 4, first, in step S10, the method controls a display device to display a screen. Next, in step S12, the method senses a first blowing and rotating display device, and determines a moving direction of the screen according to a rotation direction of the display device. Next, in step S14, the method senses a blow volume of the second blow and the second blow maintains at least one blow duration, and thereby determines an initial acceleration of the screen movement. Then, in step S16, the method performs relative to the screen displayed by the display device according to the moving direction of the screen and the initial acceleration. Should be one of the features.

In practical applications, the method can also determine whether a blowing mode of the second blowing gas conforms to a preset mode. The blowing mode of the second blowing may include the blowing volume of the second blowing, the duration of the blowing, the direction of the blowing, and the number of blowing, but not limited thereto. If the determination result is yes, the method controls the display device to execute one of the preset instructions corresponding to the preset mode.

5A and 5B, FIG. 5A and FIG. 5B are flowcharts showing a method of operating a display device according to another embodiment. As shown in FIG. 5A, in step S20, the method controls a display device to display a screen. In step S22, the method activates a blow sensing function of the display device. In an actual application, step S22 can start the air blowing sensing function of the display device by long pressing one of the power button of the display device or selecting a shortcut function button on the operation interface of one of the display devices, but not limited thereto.

When the display device senses a first blow, the method proceeds to step S24 to determine whether the display device is rotated. Actually, the display device can judge whether the display device rotates through components such as a gravity sensor or a gyroscope, but is not limited thereto. If the result of the determination in step S24 is YES, the method proceeds to step S26 to determine a screen moving direction according to one of the rotation directions of the display device.

When the display device senses a second air blow, the method first performs step S27 to capture an image in front of the display device and determine whether there is a human face in the image. If the result of the determination in step S27 is YES, the method proceeds to step S28, and determines, according to the first volume of the second blowing at a first time, the screen displayed by the display device is first on the one of the standard axes of the screen moving direction. Acceleration (A1). Next, in step S30, the method senses a second acceleration (A2) of the display device on the coordinate axis according to the second volume of the second blowing at a second time. If the result of the determination in the step S27 is NO, the method proceeds to a step S29 to stop any sensing of the second blowing.

Then, in step S32, the method determines whether the second acceleration (A2) is equal to the first acceleration (A1). If the result of the determination in step S32 is YES and the second blowing is stopped at a third time, the method proceeds to step S34 to control the screen displayed by the display device to stop sliding.

If the result of the determination in step S32 is NO, the representative second acceleration (A2) is not equal to the first acceleration (A1), as shown in FIG. 5B, the method performs step S36 to the second acceleration (A2). The acceleration increase amount obtained by subtracting the first acceleration (A1) is used to estimate a sliding speed of the screen displayed by the display device.

Since the second acceleration is not equal to the case where the first acceleration may be "the second acceleration is greater than the first acceleration" or the "second acceleration is less than the first acceleration", the following will be described separately.

If the second acceleration is greater than the first acceleration, the method proceeds to step S38 to determine whether the acceleration increase of the second acceleration minus the first acceleration is greater than an increase amount preset value. If the result of the determination in step S38 is YES, the method proceeds to step S40 to determine that the screen moving direction is one of the first directions on the screen displayed by the display device. Next, in step S42, the method performs a first function corresponding to one of the first directions on the screen displayed by the display device.

If the second acceleration is less than the first acceleration, the method proceeds to step S44 to determine whether the acceleration decrease by the second acceleration minus the first acceleration is greater than a decrease preset value. If the result of the determination in step S44 is YES, the method proceeds to step S46, and determines that the screen moving direction is one of the second directions on the screen displayed by the display device, and the second direction is opposite to the first direction. Next, in step S48, the method performs a second function corresponding to one of the second directions on the screen displayed by the display device.

For example, if the first direction determined in step S40 is the bottom-up direction in the screen displayed by the display device, the first function performed on the screen displayed by the display device in step S42 may be to Move up or pull up a control menu from the bottom up, but not limited to this. If the second direction determined in step S46 is the top-down direction in the screen displayed by the display device, the second function performed on the screen displayed by the display device in step S48 may be to move the screen from top to bottom. Or pull down a status column from the top, but not limited to this.

In another example, if the first direction determined in step S40 is a left-to-right direction in the screen displayed by the display device, the first function performed on the screen displayed by the display device in step S42 may be The screen moves from left to right, performs the function of turning to the next page, or selects a left function key, but is not limited to this. If the second direction determined in step S46 is a right-to-left direction in the screen displayed by the display device, step S48 is to the display device. The second function performed by the displayed screen may be to move the screen from right to left, perform the function of turning back to the previous page, or select a right function key, but not limited thereto.

Compared with the prior art, with the display device operation interface and method disclosed in the present invention, the user can control the display device to perform the function corresponding to the finger touch by blowing and holding and rotating the display device with one hand. The moving direction of the display screen can be changed by adjusting the rotation direction of the display device, and the sliding speed and duration can be adjusted to change the sliding speed of the display screen, and different functions can be performed according to different blowing modes.

Therefore, even if the size of the screen of the portable touch device is large, when the user can only perform the touch operation with one hand or the portable touch device cannot be placed on a table or other items, the user The screen displayed on the screen of the portable touch device can be smoothly and arbitrarily slid without any inconvenience, so that the lack of prior art can be effectively improved.
