In general, once the event prompt sent by the mobile electronic device has reached the purpose of notifying the user, the user no longer needs the mobile electronic device to continue to perform the event prompting effect. The present invention is a method for adjusting the degree of event reminding based on the above viewpoint, and a mobile electronic device and a computer program product to which the method is applied. In order to clarify the content of the present invention, the following specific examples are given as examples in which the present invention can be implemented.

1 is a block diagram of a mobile electronic device in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1 , the mobile electronic device 100 includes two sensors 110 and 120 and a processing unit 130 . The mobile electronic device 100 can be a mobile phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a personal digital assistant mobile phone, a smart phone, a digital camera, a music player, a game. Game device, or any other mobile electronic device with event prompting function, and contains two (or more than two) sensors. For convenience of explanation, it is assumed in the present embodiment that the mobile electronic device 100 has two sensors 110 and 120. The sensor 110 and the sensor 120 may be a capacitive sensor, a pressure sensor (such as a resistive sensor), a temperature sensor, an optical sensor, etc., or any other detectable touch. Sensor. Each of the sensors 110 and 120 corresponds to a detection portion of the mobile electronic device 100, and the two detection portions are independent of each other. For example, corresponding to the sensor 110 and corresponding to the sensor 120 The detection locations can be located on both sides of the mobile electronic device 100, as shown in FIG. The processing unit 130 may be a hardware (for example, a wafer set) having an arithmetic processing capability, a software component, or a combination of hardware and software components. When the mobile electronic device 100 is performing the vibration prompt corresponding to an event, the processing unit 130 determines the motion of the user according to the information provided by the sensor 110 and the sensor 120, and then the vibration intensity of the vibration prompt at an appropriate timing. Make adjustments.

The operation of the mobile electronic device 100 will be further described below. FIG. 3 is a flow chart of a method for adjusting the degree of event prompting according to an embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 3 at the same time. First, when the mobile electronic device 100 receives an event, as shown in step 310, the mobile electronic device 100 performs a vibration prompt corresponding to the event. The event may be an incoming call, a short message, an email, an alarm reminder, a calendar reminder, or any event that may trigger the mobile electronic device 100 to perform a vibrating alert.

Next, in step 320, the processing unit 130 determines whether all of the sensors (eg, the sensors 110 and 120) located at the respective detection locations detect the touch at the same time, and if yes, proceeds to step 330. For example, if the sensors 110 and 120 are pressure sensors, when the pressures detected by the sensors 110 and 120 exceed a predetermined pressure, the processing unit 130 determines the sensor 110 and 120 has detected a touch. In an embodiment of the present invention, in step 320, the processing unit 130 determines whether all of the sensors (eg, the sensors 110 and 120) detect a human touch, and if so, proceeds to step 330. For example, if the sensors 110 and 120 are capacitive sensors, when both of the sensors 110 and 120 detect a conductor, the processing unit 130 It is determined that both the sensors 110 and 120 detect human touch; for another example, if the sensors 110 and 120 are temperature sensors, when the temperatures detected by the sensors 110 and 120 exceed At a predetermined temperature, the processing unit 130 determines that both the sensors 110 and 120 detect human touch; for another example, if the sensors 110 and 120 are optical sensors, when the sensor 110 and When the detected brightness is lower than a predetermined brightness, the processing unit 130 determines that both the sensors 110 and 120 detect the human touch. The invention does not limit the means for the sensor 110 or the sensor 120 to detect human touch.

Next, in step 330, the processing unit 130 attenuates the vibration intensity of the vibrating alert. For example, the processing unit 130 may gradually weaken the vibration intensity of the vibration prompt to the minimum vibration intensity, or directly turn off the vibration prompt. In another embodiment of the present invention, in step 310, when an event is received, the mobile electronic device 100 performs a ringing tone corresponding to the event in addition to the vibration prompt corresponding to the event. In the step 330, in addition to attenuating the vibration intensity of the vibrating alert, the processing unit 130 further reduces the playing volume of the ringtone prompt. For example, the processing unit 130 may gradually reduce the playing volume of the ringtone prompt to the minimum playing volume, or directly turn off the ringing prompt.

According to this, when the mobile electronic device 100 performs the vibration and/or ringing prompt, the user only needs to touch the two (or more) detecting portions of the mobile electronic device 100 at the same time, and the mobile electronic device 100 automatically weakens or closes. Shake and/or ring tones to avoid interference with others.

Please refer to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 simultaneously. FIG. 4 is another embodiment of the present invention. A block diagram of the illustrated mobile electronic device, and FIG. 5 is a flow chart of a method for adjusting the degree of event prompting according to another embodiment of the present invention. The embodiment shown in FIG. 4 is a modified embodiment of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1. The difference is that the mobile electronic device 400 includes the sensors 410, 420 and the processing unit 430, and the mobile electronic device 400. An acceleration sensor (g-sensor) 440 is included. The sensor 410, the sensor 420, and the processing unit 430 of the present embodiment are the same as or similar to the sensor 110, the sensor 120, and the processing unit 130 in the mobile electronic device 100, and thus are not described herein again.

The processing unit 430 can obtain the acceleration information and/or the angle information of the mobile electronic device 400 by using the acceleration sensor 440, and then use the information to determine whether the mobile electronic device 400 is moved.

5 is similar to the steps of FIG. 3, except that FIG. 5 replaces step 320 in FIG. 3 with step 520. In step 520, when the mobile electronic device 400 is performing the vibration prompt, the processing unit 430 determines that the sensor (ie, the sensors 410 and 420) located in each detection portion detects the touch at the same time, and the processing unit 430 further determines whether the mobile electronic device 400 is moved based on the information of the mobile electronic device 400 obtained by the acceleration sensor 440.

For example, the processing unit 430 can obtain the initial acceleration of the mobile electronic device 400 when the event is received and the current acceleration of the mobile electronic device 400 through the acceleration sensor 440, thereby calculating the acceleration variation of the mobile electronic device 400. When the amount of change in acceleration is greater than an acceleration threshold, the processing unit 430 determines that the mobile electronic device 400 is moved. In addition, the processing unit 430 can also transmit a sense of acceleration The information provided by the detector 440 obtains the initial angle of the mobile electronic device 400 when receiving the event, and the current angle of the mobile electronic device 400, thereby estimating the amount of change in the angle of the mobile electronic device 400. Once the amount of angular change is greater than the angular threshold, processing unit 430 determines that mobile electronic device 400 is being moved.

In step 520, if the processing unit 430 determines that the sensor 410 and the sensor 420 located at the two detection locations simultaneously detect the touch, and the mobile electronic device 400 is moved again, the process proceeds to step 530. In step 530, the processing unit 430 attenuates the vibration intensity of the vibrating alert. Since step 530 is the same as or similar to step 330, it will not be described here.

It should be particularly noted that, in step 520, the processing unit 430 may first determine whether the sensor 410 and the sensor 420 detect a touch at the same time, and then determine whether the mobile electronic device 400 is moved. In addition, the processing unit 430 may first determine whether the mobile electronic device 400 is moved, and then determine whether the sensor 410 and the sensor 420 detect the touch at the same time. In other words, the present invention does not limit the order in which the mobile electronic device 400 is touched and whether the mobile electronic device 400 is moved.

According to this, when the mobile electronic device 400 performs the vibration and/or ringing prompt, the user only needs to touch the two (or more) detection parts of the mobile electronic device 400 at the same time, and move the mobile electronic device 400, the mobile electronic device. 400 will automatically reduce the vibration and / or ringing tips to avoid interference with others.

FIG. 6 is a block diagram of a mobile electronic device according to an embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 6, the mobile electronic device 600 includes a sensor 610 and processing Unit 620. The mobile electronic device 600 can be a mobile phone, a personal digital assistant, a personal digital assistant mobile phone, a smart phone, a digital camera, a music player, a game machine, or any other mobile electronic device with an event prompt function. The sensor 610 is, for example, an acceleration sensor that can detect the tilt angle of the mobile electronic device 600 and the amount of change in acceleration. The processing unit 620 is connected to the sensor 610, and may be a hardware (for example, a wafer set) having a processing capability, a software component, or a combination of hardware and software components. When the mobile electronic device 600 performs a vibration prompt of an event, the processing unit 620 determines whether the mobile electronic device 600 is moved by using the information provided by the sensor 610. If the processing unit 620 determines that the mobile electronic device 600 is moved, the processing unit 620 automatically adjusts the degree of the event prompt.

The operation of the mobile electronic device 600 will be further described below. FIG. 7 is a flow chart of a method for adjusting the degree of event prompting according to an embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 at the same time. First, when the mobile electronic device 600 receives an event, as shown in step 710, the mobile electronic device 600 performs a vibrating alert corresponding to the event. The event may be an incoming call, a short message, an email, an alarm reminder, a calendar reminder, or any event that may trigger the mobile electronic device 600 to perform a vibrating alert.

Next, in step 720, the processing unit 620 determines whether the mobile electronic device 600 is moved. The processing unit 620 can determine whether the mobile electronic device 600 is moved according to the angle change amount and/or the acceleration change amount of the mobile electronic device 600 measured by the sensor 610. Since the detailed judgment steps are the same as or similar to the foregoing embodiments, they are not described herein again.

In step 720, if the processing unit 620 determines that the mobile electronic device 600 is moved, then proceeds to step 730. In step 730, the processing unit 620 attenuates the vibration intensity of the vibrating alert. For example, the processing unit 620 may gradually reduce the vibration intensity of the vibrating alert or directly turn off the vibrating alert. If the mobile electronic device 600 simultaneously performs the ringtone prompt corresponding to the event, the processing unit 620 may also reduce the playing volume of the ringtone prompt or directly turn off the ringtone prompt.

FIG. 8 is a flow chart of a method for adjusting the degree of event prompting according to another embodiment of the present invention. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 8, before the processing unit 620 determines whether the mobile electronic device 600 is moved (step 830), it is necessary to first determine whether the mobile electronic device 600 is in a steady state at the time of receiving the event (step 820). Please also refer to Figure 6 and Figure 8. After the mobile electronic device 600 performs a vibrating alert corresponding to an event (step 810), the processing unit 620 determines whether the mobile electronic device 600 is in a steady state (step 820). For example, the processing unit 620 first obtains the amount of change in acceleration of the mobile electronic device 600 through the sensor 610. In an embodiment, if the time when the amount of change in acceleration is maintained within a predetermined range reaches a preset value (for example, 0.1 second), it is determined that the mobile electronic device 600 is in a steady state. That is, as long as the amount of change in acceleration of the mobile electronic device 600 can remain within the preset range for a certain period of time, the processing unit 620 determines that the mobile electronic device 600 is in a steady state (eg, stationary).

In another embodiment, the processing unit 620 obtains the acceleration change amount of the mobile electronic device 600 several times at different times, and if the obtained acceleration change amount is exceeded, the amount of the acceleration change amount exceeding the preset range is within the allowable range. within (For example, the number of acceleration changes exceeding the preset range, and the amount of acceleration change obtained, the ratio between the two does not exceed a threshold), the processing unit 620 also determines that the mobile electronic device 600 is in a stable state. For example, assume that processing unit 620 obtains an amount of acceleration change of mobile electronic device 600 at five points in time. If the acceleration change amount of only one time point exceeds the preset range, the processing unit 620 still determines that the mobile electronic device 600 is in a stable state. According to this, the judgment of the steady state will become more flexible.

As long as the mobile electronic device 600 is not yet in a stable state, the processing unit 620 continuously determines until the mobile electronic device 600 is determined to be in a stable state, and then, as shown in step 830, the processing unit 620 then determines whether the mobile electronic device 600 is moved. . Since the step of determining whether the mobile electronic device 600 is moved is the same as or similar to the foregoing embodiment, it will not be described herein.

If the processing unit 620 determines that the mobile electronic device 600 is moved, as shown in step 840, the processing unit 620 attenuates the vibration intensity of the vibrating alert. For example, the processing unit 620 can gradually reduce the vibration intensity of the vibration prompt or directly turn off the vibration prompt. If the event received by the mobile electronic device 600 has a corresponding ringtone prompt, the processing unit 620 can also reduce the playback volume of the ringtone prompt or directly turn off the ringtone prompt.

FIG. 9 is a flow chart of a method for adjusting the degree of event prompting according to another embodiment of the present invention. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 9, before determining whether the mobile electronic device 600 is moved, the processing unit 620 must first determine whether the mobile electronic device 600 is in a horizontal state at the time of receiving the event. Please also refer to Figure 6 and Figure 9. After the mobile electronic device 600 performs a vibration prompt corresponding to an event (step 910), the processing unit 620 determines whether the mobile electronic device 600 is in a horizontal state by using the information provided by the sensor 610 (step 920). In detail, since the sensor 610 can detect the angle data of the mobile electronic device 600 corresponding to the X-axis, the Y-axis, and the Z-axis in the three-dimensional space, the processing unit 620 can obtain the mobile electronic device through the sensor 610. The tilt angle of 600. When the tilt angle falls within a predetermined range (eg, 0-45 degrees), the processing unit 620 determines that the mobile electronic device 600 is in a horizontal state.

After the processing unit 620 determines that the mobile electronic device 600 is in the horizontal state, the processing unit 620 then determines whether the mobile electronic device 600 is moved (step 930). Similarly, the processing unit 620 can determine whether the mobile electronic device 600 is moved by the amount of change in acceleration or the amount of change in the angle provided by the sensor 510.

If it is determined that the mobile electronic device 600 is moved, the processing unit 620 attenuates the vibration intensity of the vibrating alert (step 940). For example, the processing unit 620 can gradually reduce the vibration intensity or directly turn off the vibration prompt. In another embodiment, when the vibration intensity of the vibration prompt is weakened, the processing unit 620 may further reduce the playing volume of the ringtone prompt of the corresponding event, or directly turn off the ringing prompt.

FIG. 10 is a flow chart of a method for adjusting the degree of event prompting according to still another embodiment of the present invention. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 10, before determining whether the mobile electronic device 600 is moved, the processing unit 620 must first determine whether the mobile electronic device 600 is in a stable and horizontal state at the time of receiving the event. Please refer to FIG. 6 and FIG. 10 simultaneously, and the mobile electronic device 600 performs a vibration prompt corresponding to an event. (Step 1010), in addition to determining whether the mobile electronic device 600 is in a stable state, the processing unit 620 must additionally determine whether the mobile electronic device 600 is in a horizontal state (step 1020). In this embodiment, the processing unit 620 also uses the information provided by the sensor 610 to determine whether the mobile electronic device 600 is in a stable state and a horizontal state. However, since the manner of determination is the same as or similar to the foregoing embodiment, No longer.

After determining that the mobile electronic device 600 is both stable and level, the processing unit 620 then determines whether the mobile electronic device 600 is moved (step 1030). And after determining that the mobile electronic device 600 is moved, the vibration intensity of the vibration prompt is weakened (step 1040). In addition, the processing unit 620 can also directly turn off the vibrating alert, lower the playing volume corresponding to the ringtone prompt of the event, or directly turn off the playing volume.

As described above, before the degree to which the event electronic device 600 is moved to reduce the event prompt, the processing unit 620 must first determine whether the mobile electronic device 600 is in a steady state, is in a horizontal state, or is in a steady state and a horizontal state at the same time. The above determination will enable the screened mobile electronic device 600 to be placed in a pocket or backpack by the user and moved as the user moves. That is, only when detecting and judging that the user deliberately picks up the mobile electronic device 600, the degree of event reminding is adjusted, thereby reducing the probability of performing an adjustment action at the time of the accident.

The processing unit 1120 is, for example, a hardware (for example, a wafer set) having a processing capability, a software component, or a combination of hardware and software components. When the mobile electronic device 1100 performs a ringtone prompt for an event, the processing unit 1120 determines whether the user picks up the mobile electronic device 1100 by using the information provided by the sensor 1110. If the processing unit 1120 determines that the mobile electronic device 1100 is picked up by the user, the processing unit 1120 automatically adjusts the degree of the ringtone prompt.

The operation of the mobile electronic device 1100 will be further described below. FIG. 12 is a flow chart of a method for adjusting the degree of event prompting according to an embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to FIG. 11 and FIG. 12 at the same time. First, when the mobile electronic device 1100 receives an event, as shown in step 1210, the mobile electronic device 1100 performs a ringtone prompt corresponding to the event.

The processing unit 1120 determines whether the mobile electronic device 1100 is picked up according to the angle change amount of the mobile electronic device 1100 measured by the sensor 1110. Further, when the processing unit 1120 determines that the angle change amount measured by the sensor 1110 is greater than an angle threshold, the mobile electronic device 1100 is determined. Was picked up.

After the processing unit 1120 determines that the mobile electronic device 1100 is picked up, as shown in step 1230, the processing unit 1120 lowers the playback volume of the ringtone prompt. In an embodiment, the processing unit 1120 can gradually reduce the playing volume of the ringtone prompt until the ringtone prompt is turned off; in another embodiment, the processing unit 1120 can also directly turn off the ringtone. In addition, in step 1210, if the mobile electronic device 1100 simultaneously performs the vibration prompt corresponding to the event, in step 1230, the processing unit 1120 may also gradually reduce the vibration intensity of the vibration prompt or directly turn off the vibration prompt.
