With the development of the electronic information industry, mobile intelligent terminals have gradually become the most important way for people to obtain information. At present, mobile intelligent terminals are equipped with a Bluetooth module, and different mobile intelligent terminals connect devices through a Bluetooth module to achieve data sharing. Bluetooth technology is a unified bridge for various peripheral interfaces in the network. It eliminates the connection between devices and replaces them with wireless connections.

After the input identification number or PIN is verified, device pairing can be realized, thereby implementing device pairing connection. Many users will need to sort the list and further enter the PIN to match nearby devices as a cumbersome task; at the same time, this creates significant security weaknesses because many users do not intentionally change the default PIN, or leave the default The PIN, which causes the Bluetooth function of the user device to be connected when it is not known, causes the user's personal information and important data to be leaked to other users, thereby causing losses.

detailed description

In an embodiment of the present invention, the device to be paired divides the touch screen into at least two regions, and when receiving a pressing instruction of the contact, determining a pressing region to which the contact belongs according to the divided region; The area generates a first shared code; a pairing relationship is established according to the first shared code.

The establishing a pairing relationship according to the first shared code is: determining that the first shared code is consistent with the second shared code, establishing a pairing relationship; and the second shared code is a shared code generated by the target pairing device of the device to be paired .

The invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.

Embodiment 1

A touch screen-based device pairing method according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, includes the following steps:

Step 101: The device to be paired divides the touch screen into at least two areas;

Specifically, the device to be paired sets the number of the touch screen partition according to the screen size and the screen resolution of the touch screen of the target paired device, and the number of the set is at least 2; according to the set number and the resolution of the touch screen itself, the divided each is determined. The vertex coordinates of the regions, and the range of each region is determined according to the coordinates of all the vertices of each region;

Wherein, when the target pairing device is a plurality of devices having different touch screen screen sizes, the number and shape of the area to be paired with the paired devices are consistent, and different devices are in different devices. The extent of each zone is determined by the screen resolution of its own touch screen. Here, the shape of each of the divided regions is not limited, and may be various shapes such as a square, a rectangle, and a polygon, and the region is determined for each region to be divided according to the vertex coordinates of each region.

In practical applications, when the user needs to perform pairing, the number of touch screen partitions of the device to be paired can also be set by the user according to actual conditions. When the same paired device is paired with different target paired devices, the touch screen can be divided into multiple regions with different numbers and different shapes.

Step 102: When receiving a pressing instruction of the contact, the device to be paired determines, according to the divided area, a pressing area to which the contact belongs;

Specifically, when the user presses the touch screen of the device to be paired to perform pairing, the device to be paired receives the pressing instruction reported by the contact contacted by the user with the touch screen, according to the coordinates of all the vertices and the coordinates of the contact of each region divided in step 101. Point, determining the pressing area to which the contact belongs; wherein the pressing command reported by the contact carries the coordinate point of the contact; all the vertex coordinates of each divided area are in pixels (pixel), and accordingly, the contact coordinate point In pixels (pixel).

Step 103: The device to be paired generates a first shared code according to the pressed area.

Specifically, after determining the pressing area of the contact, the to-be-paired device extracts a first shared code corresponding to the pressed area according to the pressing area; wherein the first shared code is a pre-agreed PIN, or a device category code; here, the PIN And the device category code may be a string of numbers preset in accordance with different areas divided by the touch screen, or a string of case-insensitive letters, or a combination of letters and numbers.

In an actual application, for the same location area, the shared codes stored in the paired two or more paired devices are consistent, so that when the user presses the same area on different paired devices, the extracted according to the pressed area The shared code is the same; for each partitioning method, each area divided in each partitioning mode has a one-to-one correspondence with the shared code, and the shared code can be saved in the memory in advance, and when the shared code needs to be generated, the pressing area can be directly extract.

Step 104: The paired device establishes a pairing relationship according to the first shared code.

Specifically, the device to be paired receives the second shared code generated by the target pairing device, and the first Matching the shared code with the second shared code; when the first shared code is consistent with the second shared code, determining that the paired device is successfully paired with the target paired device, establishing a pairing relationship; when the first shared code is When the second shared code is inconsistent, it is determined that the paired device fails to pair with the target paired device.

Here, the process of generating the second shared code by the target pairing device is consistent with the process of generating the first shared code by the device to be paired, and is the same as steps 101 to 103.

In actual use, the method of the embodiment of the present invention can be used for pairing multiple pairs of devices. When multiple paired devices simultaneously press the same area, a pairing relationship can be established between multiple paired devices to implement a plurality of paired devices. File sharing and application sharing, data interaction between multiple paired devices, for example, when multiple paired devices are respectively equipped with shared game applications, wireless online games between multiple paired devices; here, paired devices Pairing between them can be Bluetooth pairing.

In practical applications, the number of touch screen divisions in step 101 should not be excessive. If the number of touch screen divisions is too large, the area of each area divided may be too small, and the user may easily press to the adjacent area of the target pressing area when pairing, so the area of the smallest area divided here should not be smaller than the finger. The area of the finger pad.

In an actual application, the first shared code is a shared code generated by the current device to be paired, and the second shared code is a shared code generated by the target paired device of the device to be paired; here, the target relationship between the device to be paired and the target paired device Corresponding, therefore, the first shared code is also opposite to the second shared code. For the target paired device, the shared code generated by itself is the first shared code (that is, the second shared code in step 104), The shared code generated by the paired device is the second shared code (ie, the first shared code in step 104).

FIG. 2 illustrates an example of dividing a touch screen into four rectangular regions of equal size, and illustrating a method for dividing a touch screen region in step 101, as shown in FIG. 2:

X ₂₁ (m/2,0), X ₂₂ (m,0), X ₂₃ (m,n/2), X ₂₄ (m/2,n/2);

Four corner coordinates of the third area:

X ₃₁ (m/2, n/2), X ₃₂ (m, n/2), X ₃₃ (m, n), X ₃₄ (m/2, n);

Four vertex coordinates of the fourth region:

X ₄₁ (0, n/2), X ₄₂ (m/2, n/2), X ₄₃ (m/2, n), X ₄₄ (0, n).

Wherein, the screen resolution of the touch screen (the part of the thick line siege) is m pixels*n pixels, the lower left corner is the origin of the touch screen coordinate point, and X _ij (a, b) represents the jth vertex of the i th area Vertex coordinates, a is the coordinate value of the horizontal direction of the touch screen, b is the coordinate value of the vertical direction of the touch screen; for the touch screen, the number of the screen size and the screen resolution in the horizontal direction is smaller than the vertical direction.

The vertex coordinates of the four regions can be used to quickly and easily determine the pressing area to which any contact on the touch screen belongs.

The range of the four areas of the touch screen with a screen resolution of 1280 pixels*720 pixels is:

Four vertex coordinates of the first region:

X ₁₁ (0,0), X ₁₂ (360,0), X ₁₃ (360,640), X ₁₄ (0,640);

Four vertex coordinates of the second region:

X ₂₁ (360,0), X ₂₂ (720,0), X ₂₃ (720,640), X ₂₄ (360,640);

Four corner coordinates of the third area:

X ₃₁ (360, 640), X ₃₂ (720, 640), X ₃₃ (720, 1280), X ₃₄ (360, 1280);

Four vertex coordinates of the fourth region:

X ₄₁ (0,640), X ₄₂ (360, 640), X ₄₃ (360, 1280), X ₄₄ (0, 1280).

When the contact coordinates of the touch screen of the user are (200, 725), the pressing area of the contact is the fourth area; when the contact coordinates of the touch screen of the user is (390, 400), the pressing area of the contact is the second region;

Similarly, when the touch screen with a screen resolution of 854 pixels*480 pixels uses the area division as shown in FIG. 2, the contact coordinates of the user pressing the touch screen are (120, 305), and the pressing area of the contact is the fourth area. Wherein the coordinates of the four vertices of the fourth region are X ₄₁ (0, 427), X ₄₂ (240, 427), X ₄₃ (240, 854) and X ₄₄ (0, 854), respectively.
