detailed description

In order to further illustrate this application, the following examples are provided:

FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a method for unlocking a user interface according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 1 , the method is applied to a terminal, and may include the following steps:

Step 102: When the unlocking interface is triggered, obtain a preset password applied to the interface, where the preset password includes multiple password segments.

In this embodiment, each unlocking interface has a corresponding application, which is used to restrict the user from accessing data or information in the application, such as a desktop loading program (corresponding to a mobile phone lock screen interface) or a terminal. Any APP (Application) such as "Alipay" installed inside.

Step 104: Generate a real-time unlock password according to the feature parameter of the click operation detected by the touch screen, where the feature parameter includes: the number of consecutive hits corresponding to consecutive click operations of each password segment.

In this embodiment, when the continuous click operation is used as the password input means, an effective real-time unlock password can be obtained by combining the number of consecutive hits corresponding to the plurality of password segments.

In this embodiment, due to the feature of the continuous click operation, when the user performs a touch-click operation on the terminal screen through the finger, it is difficult to distinguish the specific number of combos even if it is peeped by others, and has high security and privacy.

Step 106: When the real-time unlock password matches the preset password, the interface lock state is released.

It can be seen from the above embodiments that the present application can prevent the user interface from being viewed at random by detecting and verifying the continuous click operation of the user, thereby ensuring the privacy of the user information. At the same time, because the interval between each click operation in the continuous click operation is short and there is no need to change the click position, even if it is peeped by others, it is difficult to distinguish, which helps to improve the security and privacy of the screen unlocking.

The technical solutions of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with specific application scenarios. FIG. 2 is a flowchart of another method for unlocking a user interface according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 2, the method is applied to a terminal, and may include the following steps:

Step 202: Set a lock screen password for any user interface in the terminal.

In this embodiment, taking the password setting for the terminal lock screen interface as an example, the user may first switch to the “password lock” interface shown in FIG. 3 to set the password related options. As shown in FIG. 3, a "simple password" and a "click-through password" may be set by default in the terminal, wherein the "simple password" may be a numeric or gesture password, and the "click-through password" is a password based on the technical solution of the present application; When the user needs to enable the click-through password, the user can switch to the "Set Click-to-Password" interface shown in Figure 4 by sliding the "Slider" icon behind the click-through password.

As shown in FIG. 4, the click-through password includes a plurality of password segments, and the user can set each password segment by a continuous click operation in a "ring" type area on the interface. When setting a lock screen password or entering a password on the lock screen interface, the password input box may be displayed on the responding password setting or unlocking interface, and the password input box includes a sub input box corresponding to the password segment, such as in FIG. 4 . In the middle, the lock screen password includes three password segments, and the corresponding three sub-input boxes are displayed at the bottom of the interface.

In addition, in the sub-input box corresponding to each password segment, it is also displayed corresponding to the detected The identification information of each click operation as the display information corresponding to the current password input status. For example, in the password input box shown in FIG. 4, the leftmost sub input box corresponds to the first group of passwords, wherein the three black dots displayed represent the number of combos is 3; the middle sub input box corresponds to the second. The group password, but because the number of combos is large, it cannot be displayed only by the number of black dots, so "x5" indicates that the number of combos is 5.

It should be noted that the technical solution of the present application generates and verifies a password based on the feature parameters of the click operation, and the feature parameter may include the number of consecutive hits of the continuous click operation, and may also include more other parameters, such as at least one of the following: The pressing force of the click operation, the length of the pressing time, and the relative position in the preset area (such as the "ring" type area shown in FIG. 4). At the same time, the characteristic parameters of each click operation can be expressed by the improvement of the identification information shown in FIG. 4. As shown in Figure 5:

FIG. 5( a ) shows a detection method based on “pressing force”, when the pressing force does not reach the preset strength, corresponding to the black small dot on the left side, when the pressing force reaches the preset strength, corresponding to the right Black dots on the side.

FIG. 5(b) shows a detection method based on “pressing time”, when the pressing time does not reach the preset time length, corresponding to the black dot on the left side, when the pressing force reaches the preset strength, corresponding to the right side Black lines.

FIG. 5(c) shows a detection method based on “relative position in a preset area”, when the click position is the left side in the preset area, the identification information corresponding to the left side, wherein the black dot is located At the left border of the rectangular frame, when the click position is above the preset area, corresponding to the identification information on the right side, the black dot is located at the upper border of the rectangular frame.

In step 204, the unlocking interface is triggered.

In this embodiment, the terminal lock screen interface is taken as an example, and various physical buttons such as “power button”, “volume button”, and “home button” on the terminal may be triggered to be triggered, or may be detected. When the parameters such as light change and spatial position change meet the preset parameters, the terminal screen is switched from the non-display state (ie, “black screen”) to the display state. Taking the APP in the terminal as an example, the corresponding unlocking interface can be triggered when it is detected that the corresponding program icon is pressed.

Step 206: If a click operation on the touch screen of the terminal is detected, then go to step 208, otherwise continue to wait.

In this embodiment, the click operation may be located at any position on the touch screen of the terminal; or, by displaying a preset area dedicated to receiving the click operation on the unlock interface, such as the "ring" type area shown in FIG. Therefore, the process proceeds to step 208 only when a click operation is detected on the touch screen corresponding to the preset area on the terminal touch screen.

Step 208: Acquire feature parameters of the click operation.

In this embodiment, the type of the feature parameter of the click operation acquired in step 208 is determined according to the type of the feature parameter collected by the terminal when the lock screen password is set in step 202.

As an exemplary embodiment, the feature parameter only includes the number of consecutive hits of the continuous click operation, and the terminal needs to distinguish the consecutive click operations corresponding to each of the password segments, and obtain the corresponding number of combos. In order to effectively distinguish the correspondence between the continuous click operation and the password segment, a corresponding time threshold may be set, for example, in each successive click operation, the interval between adjacent click operations is less than or equal to the first preset duration. The time interval between successive click operations corresponding to the adjacent cipher segments is greater than or equal to the second preset duration, where the second preset duration is greater than the first preset duration.

Meanwhile, in order to make the password input process controllable, a password input box may be displayed on the unlock interface, and the password input box includes a sub-input box corresponding to the password segment one-to-one, such as shown in FIG. 6(a) corresponding to three Three sub-input boxes for the cipher segment. The input prompt identifier may be displayed in the corresponding sub-input box according to the password segment corresponding to the currently detected click operation. For example, in FIG. 6( a ), the input prompt identifier “▲ is displayed below the sub-input box. ", prompting the user to click the corresponding password segment, as shown in Figure 6 (a) indicates that the user is entering the first password segment. Of course, regardless of the feature parameters, the sub-input box and the input prompt identifier can be displayed. For example, FIG. 6(b) indicates that the user is inputting the third password segment.

In addition, in order to facilitate the user to understand the situation that the password has been input, the password segment and the password bit corresponding to the next click operation may be estimated according to the current password input status, and the password is corresponding to the password in the sub-entry box corresponding to the password segment. The position of the bit, showing the input prompt ID. For example, when the feature parameter is only the number of combos, as shown in FIG. 6(a), by displaying two black dots in the sub-input box on the left side, Indicates that the number of hits corresponding to the first cipher segment detected by the terminal is 2, and if the terminal detects the third click operation within the first preset duration after detecting the second click operation, it is on the left side. The sub-input box is displayed as three black dots (not shown), and the number of combos corresponding to the first cipher segment is increased to 3; if the terminal is in the second pre-detection after detecting the second click operation If the third click operation is not detected within the time limit, the input of the first cipher segment is considered to be completed, and the input prompt flag “▲” will move to the lower sub-input box (not shown) and will be detected later. The click operation to is the input to the second password segment.

As another exemplary embodiment, the feature parameter may further include feature information of each click operation in each successive click operation, and the feature information may specifically include at least one of: a pressing force of the click operation, a pressing time length, and The relative position in the preset area corresponds to the setting process of the lock screen password in step 202.

Then, the user clicks in the "ring" type preset area shown in FIG. 6(b), and controls one or more characteristics of the number of hits, the pressing force, the pressing duration, and the pressing position of the click operation, To implement the input of each click operation, the password of each password bit in the generated real-time unlock password contains the feature information of the corresponding click operation, thereby improving the complexity and security of the password. For the difference of the feature parameters of the click operation, the identification information corresponding to each detected click operation displayed in the sub-input box may also be changed, for example, the display pattern of the identification information is compared with the characteristic parameter of the corresponding click operation. Matches so that users can see the results of each click. among them:

For example, in the left sub-input box in FIG. 6(b), the number of consecutive hits of the continuous click operation is 3, and the first click operation is a click of “in the middle of the preset area, light press, short press”. The corresponding identification information is “⊙”, the circle of the outer layer corresponds to the preset area, and the black dot on the inner side indicates that the pressing time of the first click operation is short (ie “short press”), and the small dot indicates The pressing force of the first click operation is small (ie, "light pressure"), and the dot is located in the middle of the outer circle to indicate that the pressing position is the middle of the preset area.

The second click operation is a click in the middle of the preset area, heavy press, short press, in the corresponding identification information: the black dot on the inner side indicates that the pressing time of the second click operation is short (ie, "short" Press "), the large dot indicates that the pressing force of the second click operation is large (ie "heavy pressure"), and the dot is located in the middle of the outer circle to indicate that the pressing position is the middle of the preset area.

The third click operation is a click in the middle of the preset area, light press, long press, in the corresponding identification information: the black line on the inner side indicates that the third click operation has a long pressing time (ie, "long press" ), the thin line segment indicates that the pressing force of the third click operation is small (ie, “light pressure”), and the line segment is located in the middle of the outer circle to indicate that the pressing position is the middle of the preset area.

For example, in the middle sub-input box in FIG. 6(b), the number of consecutive hits of the continuous click operation is 3, corresponding to the fourth, fifth, and sixth click operations. The fourth click operation is a click on the upper side of the preset area, lightly pressing, short pressing, and in the corresponding identification information: the black dot on the inner side indicates that the pressing time of the fourth click operation is short (ie, "Short press"), a small dot indicates that the pressing force of the fourth click operation is small (ie, "light pressure"), and the dot is located above the inner side of the outer circle to indicate that the pressing position is above the inner side of the preset area.

The fifth click operation is a click on the left side of the preset area, heavy pressure, short press, in the corresponding identification information: the black dot on the inner side indicates that the pressing time of the fifth click operation is short (ie, " Short press "), the large dot indicates that the pressing force of the fifth click operation is large (ie "heavy pressure"), and the dot is located on the inner side of the outer circle, indicating that the pressing position is the inner left side of the preset area.

The sixth click operation is clicked “below the inside of the preset area, lightly press, long press”. In the corresponding identification information: the black line on the inner side indicates that the pressing time of the sixth click operation is long (ie “long press” ”), the thin line segment indicates that the pressing force of the sixth click operation is small (ie “light pressure”), and the line segment is located below the inner side of the outer circle to indicate that the pressing position is below the inner side of the preset area.
