Smart TV is an intelligent multimedia terminal that conforms to the trend of “high definition”, “networking” and “intelligence” of TV sets. It has the content of obtaining programs from various channels such as the Internet, video equipment and computers. The integrated operator interface uses the features that consumers want most clearly on the big screen. Compared with the traditional TV application platform, the smart TV can realize various application services such as network search, network television, video on demand (VOD), digital music, network news, network video telephone, and the like. The TV is becoming the third type of information access terminal after the computer and mobile phone, and the user can access the information he needs at any time. When using a URL to access a network resource on a computer or performing a network search through a search engine, the keyboard can be conveniently operated; when using the smart TV for the above operation, the above cannot be input through the remote controller due to limitations of the hardware itself.

In the process of use, different control terminals need to be selected according to the change of the scene to bring the user operation. A lot of obstacles.

The prior art solves the above problems generally by simulating a keyboard operation by using a remote controller, specifically: giving a new function to a button on the remote controller, for example, by using the number key <1>, the letters a, b, c, and number 1 can be input.
