Description

Touch screen display method using color change and recording medium therefor

The present invention relates to a touch screen display method using a color change and a recording medium therefor, and more particularly, to change one or more input object colors according to a user's number of touches on the corresponding object. Colors are displayed on the touch screen, and thus, the user can experience the emotional effect of discoloring the object according to many touches, and also receives the actual number of touches in a visual manner. A touch screen display method using effective color change and the like and a recording medium therefor.

Touch screen means that if a person's hand or an object touches a character or a specific location on the screen (screen) without using a keyboard, the input screen can be input directly on the screen so that the location can be detected and processed by the stored software. It refers to a screen that can be received, and is widely used as an input screen of a user terminal such as a mobile phone or a computer. In such a touch screen, the user input is a method of simply touching the display, and thus has an advantage of simple input, but also has a disadvantage in that analog sensitivity is hardly transmitted to the user.

The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a new touch screen display method capable of analog sentiment and a recording medium therefor.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a touch screen display method, the method comprising the steps of calculating the number of touches on the object on the touch screen on which at least one object is displayed; And changing the color displayed on the object in response to the calculated number of touches.

In addition, the present invention is a touch screen display method, the method comprising the steps of calculating the display time of the object on a touch screen on which at least one object is displayed; And changing the color displayed on the object in response to the calculated display time.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the color change is to decrease the brightness or saturation of the color displayed on the object. When the display time of the object elapses for a predetermined time or more, the color of the object may be removed.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the method may further include converting a color displayed on the one or more objects into a preset initial color, wherein the touch screen is a public display.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the object is a page of an e-book, and pages of an e-book with many touches are displayed in a darker color than pages of an e-book with few touches.

The touch screen display method according to the present invention changes the color of one or more input objects displayed on the touch screen according to the number of times the user touches the corresponding object, and displays the corresponding object color on the touch screen with the changed color. Therefore, the user may experience the emotional effect of discoloring the object according to many touches, and also receives the actual number of touches in a visual manner, which is effective for a public display or an e-book.

In addition, the terms ... unit, ... unit, module, block, etc. described in the specification means a unit for processing at least one function or operation, which may be implemented in hardware or software or a combination of hardware and software. have.

1A and 1B are diagrams illustrating a touch screen display method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, a user's touch on a specific object that proceeds on a touch screen on which one or more objects are displayed is detected (S110). The touch may be performed by any input means such as a user's finger, a stylus pen, or the like, and includes both a touch or a touchless touch.

Thereafter, the number of touches on the touched object is calculated (S120). Here, the number of touches refers to the number of touches performed after the preset time.

The color of the touched object is changed according to the calculated number of touches (S130). In one embodiment of the present invention, the change of the object color is such that the brightness or the saturation is changed, in particular, as the number of touches increases, the numerical value of the color parameter such as brightness or saturation decreases. As a result, the user may obtain an analog emotional effect, in which the color of a specific object is worn out due to his touch.

Another embodiment of the present invention implements a so-called volatilization effect on the display, which reduces the brightness or saturation of the color of the object in proportion to the time the actual object is displayed on the display. As a result, the user may receive an analog emotion, that is, discoloration of an object over time, and may easily distinguish between an old object and a recently displayed object by color.

1B is a flowchart illustrating a touch screen display method according to another embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1B, the display time of the object is calculated on the touch screen on which one or more objects are displayed (S210). Thereafter, in response to the calculated display time, the color displayed on the object is changed (S220). In this case, the color change is reduced in brightness or saturation. According to another embodiment of the present invention, when an object display time elapses for a predetermined time or more, volatilization of color occurs, in which the color of the object disappears completely.

Furthermore, the touch screen display method according to an embodiment of the present invention further includes converting the color of the actually changed object into the initial color of the object. That is, according to the present invention, a plurality of objects of the same initial color are displayed on the touch screen.

When a touch on a specific object is more progressed than other objects, the brightness or saturation of the color of the specific object is reduced, whereby the specific touch is compared to an object in which the touch is not actively progressed, that is, the use is not actively progressed. The colors of the objects are clearly distinguished. However, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the user may initialize the color of the changed object to the initial color at any point in time, thereby displaying the total number of touches again as the object color.

Hereinafter, a touch screen display method according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

2 to 4, first, a plurality of

objects

130a, 130b, 130c, and 130d are displayed on the touch screen 120 provided in the mobile phone terminal 110. In this case, the plurality of

objects

130a, 130b, 130c, and 130d represent the same color.

Referring to FIG. 3, a plurality of touches on a specific object 130b are performed, and the number of touches on the 130b object is calculated by the computing device of the mobile phone terminal 110 and then stored in a memory. do. Thereafter, the number of touches stored in the memory is matched with the degree of color change by the central processing unit of the mobile phone terminal 110. Accordingly, the color of the displayed object is changed and displayed on the touch screen. Alternatively, the color of the object may change according to the display time of the object, which is within the scope of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4, the color of the 130b object is converted according to the calculated number of touches. For example, brightness or saturation may be reduced. This is similar to the effect that the color of an object used by a user is worn out by a user's touch.

As a result, the user can intuitively know which object is actually used a lot, and object selection is easier in a dark environment or an emergency situation.

The touch screen display method according to the present invention can also be applied to a public display having a larger touch screen than a mobile phone terminal.

Referring to FIG. 5, a public display 210 including a large touch screen 220 is disclosed, and a plurality of

objects

230a, 230b, 230c, and 230d such as a movie promotion poster are displayed on the touch screen 220. do.

6 and 7, of course, a touch by a large number of users proceeds more actively to an object representing a popular movie, and the number of touches increases. Therefore, the brightness or saturation of the object color displaying the specific movie is reduced in proportion to the increased number of touches. As a result, the next user can clearly know which object the user has touched more actively and searched through the color of the object displayed on the touch screen.

The touch screen display method according to the present invention can be applied to an e-book, which will be described in detail with reference to the following drawings.

Referring to FIG. 8, at least one e-book page p is displayed on the touch screen 310, and the entire page of the e-book is spaced at a narrow interval on the side of the displayed e-book page p, such as the side of the book. The overlapped side area 320 is displayed.

Referring to FIG. 9, a user touch is actively performed with respect to a specific page p1 in which a user's preferred content is displayed among all pages of the e-book. Accordingly, the color of the specific page is changed to a darker color, and the change of the color is proportional to the number of touches as described above. Alternatively, the color of the object may change according to the display time of the object, which is within the scope of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 10, the page p1 changed to a dark color is overlapped with another page in the side area 320 and is displayed, thereby allowing the user to actually read a page that has been read a lot, that is, the color of an e-book page. Can only be distinguished by.

In addition, the touch screen display method and input device, the user terminal and the system according to the present invention may be embodied as computer readable codes on a computer readable recording medium. The computer-readable recording medium includes all kinds of recording devices in which data that can be read by a computer system is stored. Examples of the recording medium include ROM, RAM, optical disk, magnetic tape, floppy disk, hard disk, nonvolatile memory, and the like, and also include a carrier wave (for example, transmission through the Internet). The computer readable recording medium can also be distributed over network coupled computer systems so that the computer readable code is stored and executed in a distributed fashion.

Although the present invention has been described with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings, this is merely exemplary, and it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various modifications and equivalent other embodiments are possible.

Therefore, the true technical protection scope of the present invention will be defined by the technical spirit of the appended claims.
