Detailed ways

Before describing the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, first, the technical scenarios of the embodiments of the present application will be described with reference to the drawings.

At present, terminal devices such as smart phones are showing a trend of increasing screen-to-body ratio. Major terminal manufacturers have successively launched their own mobile phones with high screen-to-body ratio. The so-called screen-to-body ratio generally refers to the ratio of the area of the displayable image area of the display screen of a terminal device such as a mobile phone to the area of the front of the electronic device (the surface where the display screen is located). The screen-to-body ratio of mobile phones with high screen-to-body ratios introduced by terminal manufacturers has exceeded 90%). Mobile phones are almost full of screens on the front. Therefore, phones with high screen-to-body ratios are generally called "full screen" phones by mobile phone manufacturers and users.

Figure 1 is a front view of a full-screen mobile phone currently on the market. As shown in Figure 1, the current full-screen mobile phone reserves an area on the top of the display for the earpiece, front camera and other sensors. This area is anthropomorphically called "Liu Haiping" according to different shapes. ""Beauty Tip", "Punch Screen" and so on. However, because the area above the special-shaped screen cannot display images, the integrity of the screen is sacrificed to a certain extent, which affects the look and feel. In addition, the mobile phone system UI and applications must also be optimized for the above areas, which increases the difficulty of development .

In addition to mobile phones, other terminal devices such as tablet computers are developing in the direction of increasing the screen-to-body ratio. With the further development of the "full screen" trend, if terminal devices such as "full screen" tablet computers appear in the future, they will also face the above problem.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, this application provides a terminal device. The terminal device can be any device with image display function, such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a smart watch, a bracelet, a smart speaker, a smart home device, a monitor, a notebook computer, and a mobile multimedia device carried on a vehicle.

The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings.

2a and 2b are schematic structural diagrams of a first implementation manner of a terminal device provided by this application. As shown in FIGS. 2a and 2a, the terminal device includes a body 10, and a display screen 20 is installed on one side of the body 10. The display screen 20 includes a first display area 21 with a light transmittance greater than a first threshold and a light transmittance The second display area 22 is smaller than the second threshold, wherein the first threshold is greater than or equal to the second threshold. In some examples, the light transmittance is expressed as a percentage, so the first threshold and the second threshold are both percentages; the first threshold and the second threshold can be equal, for example, both are 10%, which means the The luminous flux is 10% of the incident luminous flux; the first threshold and the second threshold may not be equal, for example: the first threshold is 10%, and the second threshold is 6%.

The body 10 of the terminal device is also provided with a movable mechanism 30. The movable mechanism 30 is located below the display screen 20 and is provided with a first optical assembly 31 facing the display screen 20. The first optical assembly 31 includes at least one optical unit. . The movable mechanism 30 can generate a displacement movement relative to the main body 10, so that the position of the first optical component 31 relative to the main body 10 changes, moving from the inside of the main body 10 to the outside of the main body 10, or retracts into the main body 10. When the movable mechanism 30 moves to the first position relative to the body 10 (Figure 2b), the first optical assembly 31 is located outside the body 10, and when the movable mechanism 30 moves to the second position relative to the body 10 (Figure 2a) The light path area of the first optical component 31 for receiving and/or transmitting the light source is just below the first display area 21.

In this application, the display screen 20 may be an organic light-emitting diode display (organic light-emitting diode display, OLED Display), for example, an active-matrix organic light-emitting diode display (AMOLED Display). ), or, micro light emitting diode display (Micro LED Display), etc. The display screen 20 may further include a hard screen and a flexible screen according to the bendability of the substrate. Among them, the hard screen can be a glass substrate; the flexible screen can be a flexible plastic substrate. When the display screen 20 is a flexible screen, curved surfaces can be formed on both sides or around the body 10, and the terminal device can also be equipped with a foldable machine. body.

In this application, both the first display area 21 and the second display area 22 of the display screen 20 can be used to display images. Among them, the first display area 21 has high light transmittance, and is transparent when the screen is turned off. The light source from the outside of the terminal device can penetrate the first display area 21 and enter the terminal device. The first optical component 31 receives. In some embodiments, in order to achieve higher light transmittance of the first display area 21, the substrate, anode, and cathode of the first display area 21 may all be made of transparent materials, or the display screen may be placed in the first display area 21. Punch holes, and use another display screen made of transparent material to splice at the punching position. When both displays are on, they can display a complete image together. When the display screen made of transparent materials is off, The first display area 21 becomes a transparent area.

The optical unit in the embodiment of the present application may specifically include: a camera, a flash, a proximity sensor (proximity sensor), an ambient light sensor (ALS), a structured light sensor (SLS), an infrared camera ( One or more of infrared camera, flood illuminator, time of flight sensor, and dot projector.

The camera is used to capture still images or videos. The camera consists of a photosensitive element and a lens. The object generates an optical image through the lens and is projected to the photosensitive element. The photosensitive element may be a charge coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) phototransistor. The photosensitive element converts the optical signal into an electrical signal, and then transmits the electrical signal to an image signal processor (ISP) of the terminal device to convert it into a digital image signal. The ISP outputs the digital image signal to a digital signal processor (digital signal processor, DSP) for processing. DSP converts digital image signals into standard RGB, YUV and other formats.

The proximity light sensor may include, for example, a light emitting diode (LED) and a light detector (e.g., photodiode). The light emitting diode may be an infrared light emitting diode for emitting infrared light outward. The photodiode detects infrared reflected light from nearby objects. When sufficient reflected light is detected, it can be determined that there is an object near the terminal device. When insufficient reflected light is detected, it can be determined that there is no object near the terminal device. The terminal device can use the proximity light sensor to detect that the user holds the terminal device close to the ear to talk, so as to automatically turn off the screen to save power. The proximity light sensor can also be used in leather case mode, and pocket mode automatically unlocks and locks the screen.

The ambient light sensor is used to sense the brightness of the ambient light. The terminal device can adaptively adjust the brightness of the display screen according to the perceived brightness of the ambient light. The ambient light sensor can also be used to automatically adjust the white balance when taking pictures. The ambient light sensor can also cooperate with the proximity light sensor to detect whether the terminal device is in the pocket to prevent accidental touch.

The structured light sensor at least consists of a dot-matrix projector, a flood light sensing element and an infrared lens. Among them, the dot-matrix projector is used to generate a large number (tens of thousands) of invisible light points to form speckle projections on the object; the flood light sensor element is used to fill the camera with invisible infrared light so that the camera is in The image of the object can also be captured under dark light; the infrared lens is used to read the pattern projected by the speckle of the dot-matrix projector on the object, so as to obtain the depth of field information on the surface of the object and build a 3D model of the object. Structured light sensor can be applied to face recognition, face payment, background blur when taking portrait photos with front camera, 3D light effect, 3D beauty and 3D AR (augmented reality) superposition, 3D simulation, 3D video call , 3D emoticons, etc.

The time-of-flight sensor is generally composed of two core components: a light emitting module and a light receiving module, which can continuously send light pulses to the measured target, and then receive the light signal returned from the object at the sensor end, and finally calculate the flight of the transmitted and received light signal (Round trip) time to get the distance of the measured target. With components such as traditional cameras and other sensors, it can be used for 3D face detection, motion tracking, gesture detection, eye tracking, and night scene recognition.

In one embodiment, the first optical assembly 31 includes an optical unit, which may be a camera or any kind of sensor. For example, when the optical unit is a camera, the terminal device may have the following application scenarios:

When a user uses a terminal device to play games, watch videos, browse webpages or social media, or use instant messaging tools to deliver messages, the user usually does not need the terminal device to turn on the camera. Therefore, the movable mechanism 30 is located in the body 10 (Figure 2a). A display area 21 normally displays images, and the screen 20 presented to the user is complete, which ensures that the user gets a good look and feel.

When the user needs to use the camera, but does not need the camera to collect high-quality images, the terminal device keeps the movable mechanism 30 in the position of FIG. 2a, turns off the screen of the first display area 21, and turns on the camera so that the camera is in the first display Taking pictures or videos below the area 21 can reduce the number of movements of the movable mechanism 30 and increase the service life of the movable mechanism 30. For example, in the face unlocking scene, when the user picks up the terminal device to aim at the face, the terminal device obtains the user's request to unlock the face through sensor data, and the terminal device keeps the first display area 21 in the off-screen state and The camera is turned on, and the camera captures the user's facial information through the first display area 21, and the processor of the terminal device compares the acquired facial information with the facial data of the owner to complete the face unlocking process.

When the user needs to use a camera, and needs the camera to collect high-quality images (for example: Selfie, video call, etc.), the movable mechanism 30 moves from the inside of the body 10 to the outside of the body 10 (Figure 2b), and the first display area 21 is normal The image is displayed, and the camera takes a picture or video outside the body 10.

In some embodiments, the terminal device may also determine how to turn on the camera according to the user's operation.

Optionally, the user may send a request to turn on the camera by performing a preset click or slide operation on the display screen 20. For example, when the user performs a left or right sliding operation on the lock screen interface, or clicks a designated virtual button on the lock screen interface, the terminal device moves the movable mechanism 30 to the position shown in Fig. 2b, and turns on the camera and the display screen 20 also enters the camera page at the same time, allowing users to take selfies or record videos.

Optionally, when the user performs different gesture operations on the lock screen interface, the terminal device turns on the camera in different ways. For example, when the user performs a single-finger swipe on the lock screen interface, the terminal device turns on the camera in the state of Figure 2a; when the user performs a two-finger or multi-finger swipe on the lock screen interface, the terminal device removes the movable mechanism 30 from the body 10. Move inside to the outside of the body 10, and turn on the camera in the state of FIG. 2b.

Optionally, the user can also perform a preset sliding operation on the camera interface to enable the terminal device to turn on the camera in the two states of Figure 2a and Figure 2b. For example: when the camera is turned on in the state of Figure 2a, the user can perform a preset sliding operation on the camera interface to move the movable mechanism 30 to the position of Figure 2b; when the camera is turned on in the state of Figure 2b, the user can Perform a preset sliding operation to retract the movable mechanism 30 to the position of FIG. 2a.

Optionally, the user can also perform a preset click operation on the camera interface to enable the terminal device to turn on the camera in the two states of Figure 2a and Figure 2b. For example: Figure 3 is an exemplary schematic diagram of a camera interface. As shown in FIG. 3, the camera interface includes a virtual button 40 for selecting a camera. After the user clicks the virtual button 40, multiple icons will be displayed on the camera interface. Among them, the icon 41 is used to switch the front camera and the rear camera; the icon 42 is used to turn on the camera in the state of FIG. 2a; the icon 43 is used to move the movable mechanism 30 out of the body 10 and turn on the camera in the state of FIG. 2b. In this way, the user can turn on the camera in different states by clicking the corresponding icon.

Optionally, the terminal device can provide different usage scenarios, and each usage scenario corresponds to a camera opening method. For example: Scene 1 corresponds to turning on the camera in the state of Figure 2a, and Scene 2 corresponds to turning on the camera in the state of Figure 2b. The terminal device can set a designated switch button on the camera interface to guide the user to select different usage scenarios, and according to the usage scenario selected by the user , Move the movable mechanism 30 to the corresponding position.

Optionally, the terminal device may also record the settings when the user used the front camera last time. When the user uses the front camera next time, the terminal device determines whether to move the camera outside the body 10 according to the recorded settings.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 4a and 4b, the first optical assembly 31 includes an optical unit 311 and an optical unit 312. When the movable mechanism 30 is retracted into the body 10 (FIG. 4a), the optical unit 311 and The optical unit 312 is located under the first display area 21. When the movable mechanism 30 moves from the inside of the main body 10 to the main body 10 (FIG. 4b ), the optical unit 311 and the optical unit 312 are located outside the main body 10. The optical unit 311 and the optical unit 312 may be the same optical unit, or may be different optical units.

Optionally, the optical unit 311 and the optical unit 312 are both cameras. Among them, the optical unit 311 can select a camera with a high effective pixel, a large aperture, and a large photosensitive element size as the main camera; the optical unit 312 can select a wide-angle camera, a telephoto camera, a macro camera, etc. as the auxiliary camera. When the optical unit 311 and the optical unit 312 are both cameras, the terminal device may have the following application scenarios:

When the user does not need the terminal device to turn on the camera, the movable mechanism 30 is located in the body 10 (Figure 4a), the first display area 21 displays images normally, and the screen 20 presented to the user is complete, ensuring that the user gets a good look and feel .

When the user needs to use a camera, but does not need a camera to collect high-quality images, the terminal device keeps the movable mechanism 30 in the position of FIG. 4a, turns off the screen of the first display area 21, and turns on one or two cameras to enable The camera takes pictures or video under the first display area 21, thereby reducing the number of activities of the movable mechanism 30 and increasing the service life of the movable mechanism 30. For example, in the face unlocking scene, when the user picks up the terminal device to aim at the face, the terminal device obtains the user's request to unlock the face through sensor data, and the terminal device keeps the first display area 21 in the off-screen state and Turn on one or two cameras, the camera captures the user's facial information through the first display area 21, and the processor of the terminal device compares the acquired facial information with the owner's facial data to complete the face unlocking process . Among them, if one camera is turned on, the user’s face photo can be captured, and if two cameras are turned on, the “binocular distance measurement method” can be used to capture the user’s face photo at the same time. The depth of field information of the human face helps to improve the accuracy of face unlocking.

When the user needs to use a camera, and the camera needs to collect high-quality images (for example: Selfie, video call, etc.), the movable mechanism 30 moves from the body 10 to the position shown in Figure 4b, the first display area 21 normally displays the image, and the camera Taking pictures or video recording outside the body 10.

Optionally, the optical unit 311 is a camera, and the optical unit 312 is a time-of-flight sensor. When the user takes a selfie, the time-of-flight sensor captures the user's portrait and the depth of field information of the objects in the scene, measures the distance of the objects in the scene to determine the initial depth map generated by the camera, and then fine-tunes it. Through real-time accurate depth ranging, a progressive background blur is achieved, showing a natural blur depth of field effect without losing details, making the photo more layered, allowing the subject to naturally blend in the shooting scene without making people feel It creates a sense of separation and can also make the subject more prominent.

Optionally, the optical unit 311 is a camera, and the optical unit 312 is an infrared lens.
