detailed description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. It is obvious that the described embodiments are a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, but not all embodiments. . All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without departing from the inventive scope are the scope of the disclosure.

First embodiment

Referring to FIG. 1 , a flowchart of a method for prompting an event according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may be specifically included.

Step 101: When the specified event is monitored, the screen orientation of the mobile terminal is detected.

In particular implementations, embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied to mobile terminals, such as mobile phones, tablets, personal digital assistants, wearable devices (eg, wristbands, glasses, watches, etc.), and the like. The mobile terminal is respectively provided with at least one flash on at least two different surfaces, for example, a flash is disposed on the front side (the surface on which the screen is located), and another flash is disposed on the back side (front facing surface).

The operating systems of these mobile terminals may include Android (Android), IOS, Windows Phone, Windows, and the like.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, an event requiring a prompt, such as an alarm clock, an incoming call, and the like, may be set, and the mobile terminal continuously monitors these events.

For example, in the Android system, you can write a Receiver, which inherits the Broadcast Receiver.

In the AndroidManifest.xml (used to describe the components exposed in the package), configure the written Receiver and tie the corresponding BroadcastAction. The event of the incoming call is, for example, TelephonyManager.ACTION_PHONE_STATE_CHANGED.

When the events that require prompting are monitored, the current screen orientation of the mobile terminal, that is, how to place the information of the mobile terminal, can be detected.

In a specific implementation, the mobile terminal is provided with an acceleration sensor, that is, a sensor that can sense acceleration and convert into an available output signal, and generally includes the following types:

1. Piezoelectric type, piezoelectric accelerometer is the piezoelectric effect of piezoelectric ceramic or quartz crystal. When the accelerometer is vibrated, the force of the mass applied to the piezoelectric element also changes.

2. Piezoresistive type, piezoresistive accelerometer adopts the mover of the permanent magnet induction stepping motor. The mover is equipped with three sensors. Through the correction of the acceleration closed loop, the acceleration of the mover is consistent with the command acceleration.

3. Capacitive, capacitive accelerometers are capacitive sensors based on the principle of capacitance. One of the electrodes is fixed and the other is an elastic diaphragm. The elastic diaphragm is displaced by an external force (such as air pressure, hydraulic pressure, etc.) to change the capacitance.

4. Servo-type, servo-type accelerometer The vibration system consists of the “m-k” system, which is the same as the general accelerometer, but the mass m is followed by an electromagnetic coil. When there is acceleration input on the pedestal, the mass deviates from the equilibrium position. The displacement is detected by the displacement sensor and amplified by the servo amplifier to be converted into a current output. The current flows through the electromagnetic coil to generate electromagnetic recovery in the magnetic field of the permanent magnet. Force, trying to keep the mass in the original equilibrium position in the instrument housing.

When detecting the orientation of the screen, as shown in FIG. 2, the first acceleration of the acceleration sensor on the X-axis, the second acceleration on the Y-axis, and the third acceleration on the Z-axis in the mobile terminal can be read.

In one example, the first difference between the first acceleration, the second acceleration, and 0 is less than a second between a preset first difference threshold, a third acceleration, and a gravitational acceleration (9.8 m/s ² ) When the difference is less than the preset second difference threshold, it is determined that the screen orientation of the mobile terminal is the screen facing upward.

In this example, the acceleration of the mobile terminal on the X-axis, the acceleration on the Y-axis is close to or even 0, and the acceleration on the Z-axis is close to even the acceleration of gravity, indicating that the mobile terminal is not subjected to a force in the horizontal direction. It is only subjected to gravity in the vertical direction.

In this case, the mobile terminal is allowed to stand, usually placed on an object by the user, and the screen is oriented vertically upwards with the screen facing up.

In another example, when the first difference between the first acceleration, the second acceleration, and 0 is less than a preset first difference threshold, a third acceleration, and a target acceleration (-9.8 m/s ² ) When the third difference is less than the preset third difference threshold, it is determined that the screen orientation of the mobile terminal is the screen facing downward.

In this example, the target acceleration (-9.8 m/s ² ) is opposite to the gravitational acceleration (9.8 m/s ² ) and the values are the same.

In this example, the acceleration of the mobile terminal on the X-axis, the acceleration on the Y-axis is close to or even 0, and the acceleration on the Z-axis is close to or even the target acceleration opposite to the gravitational acceleration, indicating that there is no horizontal direction in the mobile terminal. Subjected to force, it is only subjected to gravity in the vertical direction.

In this case, the mobile terminal is allowed to stand, usually placed on an object by the user, the screen orientation is vertical downward, and the orientation is the screen facing downward.

Of course, the above-mentioned screen orientation is only an example. When implementing various embodiments of the present disclosure, other screen orientations may be set according to actual conditions, for example, screen orientation, and the like, which is not limited by the embodiments of the present disclosure. In addition, in addition to the above-mentioned screen orientation, those skilled in the art may also adopt other screen orientations according to actual needs, and the embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit this.

Step 102: Associate a flash configured in the mobile terminal according to the screen orientation.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the mobile terminal may configure two or more flashes, such as a fill light of a camera, a breathing light, a flash light dedicated to prompting, and the like. In addition, in some cases, the screen can also be used as a flash by increasing the brightness, displaying a pure white picture, and the like.

If the screen orientation of the mobile terminal is determined, the flash can be associated for subsequent prompting.

In one example, the front flash of the mobile terminal is associated when the screen is oriented with the screen facing up.

In this example, the front flash is oriented the same as the front of the screen, that is, the front flash is facing up. Since the mobile terminal is placed on an object, the downward side is often directly in contact with the object and is blocked. The side is generally not obstructed by obstacles, so the front flash is generally not obstructed by obstacles.

In another example, the rear flash of the mobile terminal is associated when the screen is oriented with the screen facing down.

In this example, the rear flash is opposite to the screen orientation, that is, the rear flash is facing up. Since the mobile terminal is placed on an object, the downward side is often directly in contact with the object and is blocked. The side is generally not obstructed by obstacles, so the rear flash is generally not obstructed by obstacles.

Of course, the association manner of the above-mentioned flash is only an example. When implementing various embodiments of the present disclosure, the manner of association of other flashes may be set according to actual conditions. For example, when the screen is sideways, the front flash and the rear flash are associated at the same time, and so on. The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit this. In addition, in addition to the above-mentioned manner of the flash, the person skilled in the art can also use other flash related manners according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit this.

Step 103: Drive the flash to perform blinking.

In a specific implementation, if the associated flash is determined, the flash may be driven to blink to prompt the specified event, that is, prompt the user for a corresponding event, such as an alarm, an incoming call, or the like.

For example, if the flash is the fill light of the camera, in Android, you can use the Camera.Open to turn on the fill light to flash.

For example, if the flash is a breathing light, in Android, you can first apply for the system service Activity.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE to obtain the NotificationManager, and then create a notification that is not displayed. The related parameter Notification.FLAG_SHOW_LIGHTS is set in the notification, and the breathing light flashes.

Second embodiment

Referring to FIG. 3, a flowchart of a method for prompting an event of another embodiment of the present disclosure is shown, which may specifically include the following steps:

Step 301: When the specified event is monitored, the screen orientation of the mobile terminal is detected.

Step 302: Associate a flash configured in the mobile terminal according to the screen orientation.

Step 303: Drive the flash to blink to prompt the specified event.

Step 304: Detect a user operation mode of the mobile terminal.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, if the user sees the blinking prompt of the flash, the mobile terminal can be directly operated, such as flipping, picking up, shaking, etc., to turn off the flash.

When detecting the mode of operation, as shown in FIG. 2, the fourth acceleration of the acceleration sensor on the X-axis, the fifth acceleration on the Y-axis, and the sixth acceleration on the Z-axis in the mobile terminal can be read.

In one example, when the increase of the fourth acceleration, the fifth acceleration, and the sixth acceleration exceeds a preset amplification threshold, it is determined that the user operates the mobile terminal in a flipping operation.

In this example, the acceleration of the mobile terminal on the X-axis, the acceleration on the Y-axis, and the acceleration on the Z-axis vary greatly (characterized as an increase in acceleration above a preset increase threshold), typically an axis If the data is greater than 2, the mobile terminal can be considered to be flipped by the user.

In another example, when the increase of the fourth acceleration and the fifth acceleration does not exceed the preset increase threshold, and the increase of the sixth acceleration exceeds the preset increase threshold, determining that the user operates the mobile terminal as picking up operation .

In this example, the acceleration of the mobile terminal on the X-axis and the acceleration on the Y-axis do not change significantly (characterized by the acceleration increase not exceeding the preset increase threshold), and the acceleration on the Z-axis varies greatly (characterization) In order for the acceleration to increase beyond the preset increase threshold), the mobile terminal can be considered to be picked up by the user.

Of course, the detection method of the foregoing operation mode is only an example. When the various embodiments of the present disclosure are specifically implemented, the detection methods of other operation modes may be set according to actual conditions, and the embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit this. In addition, in addition to the detection method of the above operation mode, those skilled in the art may also adopt other detection methods according to actual needs, and the embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit this.

Step 305, stopping driving the flash to perform flicking according to the operation mode.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, if it is detected that the user operates the mobile terminal, indicating that the user knows the prompted event, the flash can be turned off correspondingly according to the operation mode.

In one example, the flash is turned off when the mode of operation is a flip operation.

In this example, if the user flips the mobile terminal, the flash can be turned off directly.

In another example, when the mode of operation is a pick up operation, the brightness of the flash is turned down, for example, gradually turning down the brightness of the flash until it is turned off.

In this example, if the user picks up the mobile terminal, the flash can be gradually dimmed until it is turned off.

If the flash is the fill light of the camera, in Android, after turning on the fill light, you can get Camera.Parameters and set the flashing parameters, such as brightness.

When it is closed, call FLASH_MODE_TROCH, set it to FLASH_MODE_OFF, and release it.

For another example, if the flash is a breathing light, in Android, the probe function can be called to control the flicker of the breathing light, such as brightness, frequency, and the like.

At present, when the flash is flashing, it needs to be closed by the physical button. When the alarm sounds and the user is still in the state of just waking up, it is inconvenient to find the physical button, and the flexibility is poor.

The embodiment of the present disclosure closes the flash by the user's operation mode on the mobile terminal, and the overall operation of the mobile terminal is more convenient than operating a physical button, thereby improving the flexibility of the closing operation.

It should be noted that, for the sake of simple description, the method embodiments are all described as a series of action combinations, but those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited by the described order of actions. Because certain steps may be performed in other sequences or concurrently in accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure. In the following, those skilled in the art should also understand that the embodiments described in the specification are all preferred embodiments, and the actions involved are not necessarily required by the embodiments of the present disclosure.
