具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚地描述,显然,所描述的实施例是本申请一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
本申请的说明书和权利要求书中的术语“第一”、“第二”等是用于区别类似的对象,而不用于描述特定的顺序或先后次序。应该理解这样使用的数据在适当情况下可以互换,以便本申请的实施例能够以除了在这里图示或描 述的那些以外的顺序实施,且“第一”、“第二”等所区分的对象通常为一类,并不限定对象的个数,例如第一对象可以是一个,也可以是多个。此外,说明书以及权利要求中“和/或”表示所连接对象的至少其中之一,字符“/”,一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。
下面结合附图,通过具体的实施例及其应用场景对本申请实施例提供的触感增强机构、电子设备和触感增强方法进行详细地说明。
请参阅图1和图2,其中,图1是本申请实施例提供的触觉增强单元沿第一方向的剖面结构示意图;图2是本申请实施例提供的触觉增强单元沿第二方向的剖面结构示意图。第一方向可以是垂直于收容槽11槽底的方向,第二方向可以是平行于收容槽11槽底的方向。本申请实施例提供的触感增强机构包括控制单元(未图示)和触感增强单元100。
如图1和图2所示,触感增强单元100包括:主体部1、磁流体2、柔性封装层3和磁性件4。
其中,主体部1上设有收容槽11,磁流体2收容于收容槽11内,柔性封装层3封闭收容槽11的槽口;磁性件4设于收容槽11内,磁性件4设于收容槽11的侧壁或设于收容槽11的底部边缘;
控制单元用于调节磁性件4作用于磁流体2的磁场,使磁流体2在所述磁场的作用下推动柔性封装层3形变。
在一种可选的实施方式中,磁性件4可以包括励磁线圈,这样,通过调节该励磁线圈流过的电流的大小和方向,便可以改变磁性件4产生的磁场的大小和方向。当然,在实施中,磁性件4还可是任意能够产生磁场的装置,且为了便于说明,本申请实施例中,以磁性件4包括励磁线圈为例进行举例说明,在此不构成具体限定。
此外,柔性封装层3可以是一层柔性薄膜(如:聚酰亚胺薄膜),从而能够跟随磁流体2的位移而发生形变,例如:如图3所示,在磁流体2向收容槽11的中心聚拢时,柔性封装层3的中心区域会被磁流体2推向收容槽11外,从而形成凸起结构。
值得注意的是,在一种实施方式中,磁性件4可以设于收容槽11的侧壁,例如:假设磁性件4包括线圈,则该线圈可以呈长条形结构,且沿收容槽11 的侧壁延伸,或者在收容槽11的侧壁上开设凹槽,以将线圈收容在该凹槽内等。这样,可以从收容槽11的侧边方向驱动磁流体2移动,无需将线圈设置在收容槽11的槽底下方或者槽口上方,有利于简化触感增强机构的结构,并减少其占用空间,且在将触感增强机构贴设在柔性显示屏下方的情况下,该触感增强机构贴设也能够推动上方的柔性显示屏发生形变。
在一种实施方式中,磁性件4也可以设于收容槽11的底部边缘,其结构和原理与磁性件4可以设于收容槽11的侧壁的实施方式相似,不同之处在于,本实施方式中,磁性件4也可以抵靠收容槽11的槽底设置,且位于槽底的靠近收容槽11侧壁的边缘处,这样,在磁性件4产生磁场时,能够提升该磁场对磁流体2在第一方向上的作用力,第一方向为垂直于收容槽11的槽底的方向,从而能够提升磁流体2推动柔性封装层3的凸起量,有利于提升触觉体验。
在本申请实施例中,磁性件4能够产生磁场以推动磁流体2移动,而磁流体2被限制在收容槽11内,因此,该磁流体2移动时,会推动封闭收容槽11的槽口的柔性封装层3发生形变,从而突出于柔性封装层3所在平面,形成用于触觉感知的凸起,这样,用户通过触摸可以感知柔性封装层3的形变,以实现触觉反馈。此外,本申请实施例中,控制单元能够对磁性件4进行控制,以调节磁性件4产生的磁场,这样,在磁性件4产生的磁场发生改变的情况下,磁流体2的受力也会发生改变,从而调节柔性封装层3所发生的形变,能够提升具有触感增强机构的电子设备的触觉反馈效果。
可选的,磁性件4包括线圈,所述控制单元位于收容槽11外,主体部1上开设有通孔40,所述线圈通过所述通孔40与所述控制单元电连接。
本实施方式中,将控制单元设置在收容槽11外,例如:在主体部1下方设置一层布线层5,可以在该布线层5上设置控制单元的线路。此时,由于线圈设置在收容槽11内,需要在主体部1上开设通孔40,以使控制单元的线路穿过该通孔40后与线圈连接,此时,控制单元还可以便捷地与外部电路或者其他触觉增强单元中的线圈连接。
当然,在实施中,控制单元也可能设置在收容槽11内,在此不作具体限定。
可选的,所述控制单元用于调节磁性件4产生的磁场的大小和方向中的至少一项;
和/或,
主体部1的材质为隔磁材料。
在一种实施方式中,通过调节磁性件4产生的磁场的大小,可以改变柔性封装层3上形成的凸起结构的凸起程度,此外,通过调节磁性件4产生的磁场的方向,可以改变柔性封装层3上形成的凸起结构的外形。
这样,通过调节磁性件4产生的磁场的大小和方向中的至少一项,可以改变用户对触感增强机构所形成触觉增强内容的触觉,这样,同一触感增强机构能够产生不同的触觉,提升了触感增强机构的触觉反馈效果。
在一种实施方式中,将主体部1的材质为隔磁材料,这样,可以将多个触觉增强单元100并列设置,且通过隔磁材料隔绝不同触觉增强单元100之间的磁场干扰,这样,能够提升触感增强机构的触觉反馈效果。
可选的,触感增强机构包括至少两个触觉增强单元100;
所述至少两个触觉增强单元100呈矩阵排列,主体部1的材质为软磁性材料。
在至少两个触觉增强单元100呈矩阵排列的情况下,任意相邻的两个触觉增强单元100的主体部1并排设置,通过将主体部1的材质为软磁性材料,可以利用该软磁性材料对任意相邻的两个触觉增强单元100之间的磁场方向进行扭转,能够降低触觉增强单元100之间的磁场干扰,以及降低主体部1外部的磁场干扰。
在实施中,上述软磁性材料可以是锌锰合金或铬锆合金等,该软磁性材料会将磁场方向扭转,对收容槽11内部环境进行磁场屏蔽,用于使各个触觉增强单元100间的励磁线圈产生的磁场不会互相干扰,同时软磁性材料会更改主体部1内部的结构适配,以抵抗主体部1外部的磁场影响,这样,还能够使外部电路产生的感应磁场不会干扰到收容槽11内的磁流体2。
可选的,如图2所示,磁性件4包括第一线圈411和第二线圈412,第一线圈411与第二线圈412设于收容槽11的相邻两侧。
本实施方式中,在收容槽11的相邻两侧分别设置第一线圈411和第二线 圈412,在工作中,控制单元可以控制其中的第一线圈411通电且第二线圈412不通电,或者,控制其中的第一线圈411不通电且第二线圈412通电,或者,控制其中的第一线圈411和第二线圈412都通电,以实现触觉增强单元100在柔性封装层3上形成不同形态的触觉增强内容。例如:在第一线圈411通电且第二线圈412不通电时,在柔性封装层3上的靠近第一线圈411的一侧形成凸起结构;在第一线圈411不通电且第二线圈412通电时,在柔性封装层3上的靠近第二线圈412的一侧形成凸起结构;在第一线圈411和第二线圈412都通电时,在柔性封装层3上的靠近第一线圈411和第二线圈412之间的角落形成凸起结构,这样,通过不同形态的触觉增强内容可以向用户反馈不同的触觉,提升了触觉增强机构的触觉反馈效果。
当然,在实施中,磁性件4还可以包括相对设置的两个线圈。可选的,如图2所示,磁性件4包括第一线圈411和第三线圈413,第一线圈411与第三线圈413相对设于收容槽11的两侧。
本实施方式下,通过控制相对设置的第一线圈411和第三线圈413中的一个或两个通电,同样可以调节在柔性封装层3上形成的凸起结构的形态和/或位置,以提升触觉增强机构的触觉反馈效果,在此不再赘述。
需要说明的是,在实施中,磁性件4可以同时包括相对设置的两个线圈以及相邻设置的两个线圈。
可选的,收容槽11呈矩形结构,磁性件4包括第一线圈411、第二线圈412、第三线圈413和第四线圈414,第一线圈411、第二线圈412、第三线圈413和第四线圈414分别设于收容槽11的四周(例如:第一线圈411、第二线圈412、第三线圈413和第四线圈414分别设于收容槽11的4个侧壁,或者分别设置在收容槽11的底部的4条边缘处);
第一线圈411、第二线圈412、第三线圈413和第四线圈414围合形成一形变区20,所述控制单元控制第一线圈411、第二线圈412、第三线圈413和第四线圈414中的至少一个产生磁场,使位于形变区20内的磁流体2形变以推动柔性封装层3形变。
本实施方式中,第一线圈411、第二线圈412、第三线圈413和第四线圈414首尾相对设置,且各个线圈平行于收容槽11的一个侧边设置,以在收容 槽11内合围形成形变区20,其中,磁流体2位于该形变区20内,这样,通过环绕磁流体2的4个线圈所产生的磁场,可以驱使磁流体2在形变区20内发生多种结构的形变。
例如:如图4a所示,所述控制单元控制第一线圈411、第二线圈412、第三线圈413和第四线圈414同时通电,使磁流体2聚集于形变区20的中心;或
如图4b所示,所述控制单元控制第一线圈411、第二线圈412和第三线圈413同时通电,且第四线圈414断电,使磁流体2聚集于形变区20的靠近第一线圈411、第二线圈412和第三线圈413的边缘,磁流体2的体积沿远离第四线圈414的方向逐步增大;或
如图4c所示,所述控制单元控制第一线圈411和第二线圈412同时通电,且第三线圈413和第四线圈414同时断电,使磁流体2聚集于形变区20的一角,形变区20的一角位于第一线圈411和第二线圈412之间;或
如图4b所示,所述控制单元控制第一线圈411通电,且第二线圈412、第三线圈413和第四线圈414同时断电,使磁流体2聚集于形变区20靠近第一线圈411的边缘。
需要说明的是,在实施中,上述通过激活不同位置的线圈(411~414)来调节磁性件4的工作模式的方式,可以与调节线圈(411~414)的电流大小和电流方向以实现调节磁性件4的工作模式的方式进行结合。
其中,调节该线圈的电流方向,可以改变磁性件4的磁场方向,从而调节磁流体2的受力方向,这样,能够改变柔性封装层3上形成的凸起结构的位置;通过调节线圈的电流大小,可以改变磁性件4的磁场强度,从而调节磁流体2的受力大小,这样,能够改变柔性封装层3上形成的凸起结构的凸出程度。基于上述凸起结构的位置和凸出程度的改变,可以实现不同的触感反馈。
本实施方式中,假设收容槽11为矩形框结构,可以在收容槽11的4条边处分别设置一个励磁线圈,这样,可以使4个励磁线圈环绕设置在磁流体2外,通过激活其中的部分励磁线圈,可以实现触觉增强单元100的工作模式切换。在实施中,控制单元可以单独控制每一个励磁线圈41的电流大小和 /或电流方向,以实现控制触感增强单元100在多种工作模式之间进行切换,其中,触摸不同的工作模式下的触感增强单元100能够产生不同的触感,形成丰富的触感组合,满足不同应用场景的需求,从而能够提升了触感增强反馈的性能。
可选的,如图5所示,所述触觉增强机构包括至少两个触觉增强单元100,主体部1的材质为隔磁材料,主体部1分隔所述至少两个触觉增强单元100;
所述控制单元分别控制所述至少两个触觉增强单元100中的每一个触觉增强单元100内的线圈通电。
本实施方式中,控制单元可以单独控制每一个触觉增强单元100,即同一控制单元可以控制不同的触觉增强单元100处于不同的工作模式,例如:控制其中一个触觉增强单元100处于第一工作模式,控制另一个触觉增强单元100处于第二工作模式,这样,通过多个触觉增强单元100进行相互协作,可以实现更精确的触觉反馈。
可选的,磁性件4包括至少两个间隔设置的线圈(如:第一线圈411、第二线圈412、第三线圈413、第四线圈414);
其中,触觉增强单元100包括N种工作模式,且N种工作模式与N个线圈工作组一一对应,所述线圈工作组包括至少一个通电线圈,N为正整数;
其中,所述控制单元用于激活触觉增强单元100中与目标工作模式对应的线圈工作组,使触觉增强单元100工作于所述目标工作模式。
本实施方式中,可以将励磁线圈41进行分组,其中,每一个线圈工作组可以包括至少一个通电的线圈。这样,通过将线圈工作组与工作模式一一对应,控制模块在控制触觉增强单元100工作于目标工作模式的情况下,仅需要激活该目标工作模式对应的线圈工作组即可。
可选的,如图2所示触觉增强单元100为例,该触觉增强单元100的工作模式可以包括以下模式:
模式一:假设激活的线圈用于产生吸附磁流体2的磁场,则如图4a所示,在激活4个线圈(第一线圈411、第二线圈412、第三线圈413和第四线圈414)时,能够趋使磁流体2流向收容槽11的中间区域。
模式二:在激活3个线圈(如:第一线圈411、第二线圈412和第三线 圈413)时,能够趋使磁流体2形成如图4b所示的U型的凸起结构,需要说明的是,如图4b仅作为一个实例,在实施中,控制单元还可以切换未激活的线圈为位于收容槽11上侧边处的第二线圈412、位于收容槽11右侧边处的第三线圈413或位于收容槽11下侧边处的第四线圈414,以使磁流体2所形成的U型凸起结构的朝向发生90°旋转。也就是说,模式二具体可以包括4种,在此不再一一赘述。
模式三:在仅激活2个相邻的线圈(如:第一线圈411和第二线圈412)时,能够趋使磁流体2形成如图4c所示的聚集在收容槽11的顶角处的凸起结构,需要说明的是,如图4c仅作为一个实例,在实施中,控制单元还可以切换未激活的线圈为第二线圈412和第三线圈413、第三线圈413和第四线圈414或第四线圈414和第一线圈411,以使磁流体2所形成的凸起结构的发生90°旋转。也就是说,模式三具体可以包括4种,在此不再一一赘述。
模式四:在仅激活1个线圈(如:第一线圈411)时,能够趋使磁流体2形成如图4d所示的沿收容槽11的一条侧边聚集的凸起结构,需要说明的是,如图4d仅作为一个实例,在实施中,控制单元还可以切换激活的线圈为第二线圈412或第三线圈413或第四线圈414,以使磁流体2所形成的凸起结构发生90°旋转。也就是说,模式四具体可以包括4种,在此不再一一赘述。
综上,在磁性件4包括4个线圈的情况下,触觉增强单元100可以具有13种工作模式。当然,在实施中,基于控制逻辑的调节,触觉增强单元可以包括更多(例如:控制线圈产生与磁流体2相斥的磁场等)或者更少的工作模式。此外,在实施中,收容槽11的形状并不限定为四边形,其还可以是五边形、六边形等等,且每一个收容槽11内包括的线圈的数量也可以进行调整,例如:一个、2个、3个、4个、5个、6个等,基于收容槽11的形状和每一个收容槽11内包括的线圈的数量的调整,触觉增强单元100的工作模式也会发生相应的变化,在此不作具体限定。
可选的,如图1所示,触觉增强单元100还可以包括布线层5,该布线层5层叠设置在主体部1的下方(即背向收容槽11的槽口的一侧),在实施中,布线层5上可以布置电路,以贯穿收容槽11槽底部的通孔40的连接件能够将磁性件4中的各个线圈分别与布线层5上的电路进行电连接,从而通 过该布线层5可以将各个线圈与控制单元、电源等进行电连接。
本申请实施例还提供一种显示面板,该显示面板可以包括如上实施例提供的触觉增强机构。
本申请实施例中,在显示面板中设置如上实施例提供的触觉增强机构,能够使显示面板能够进行触觉反馈,其具有与如图1至图5所示触觉增强机构相似的有益效果,为避免重复,在此不再赘述。
本申请实施例还提供一种电子设备,如图5所示,该电子设备可以包括如上实施例提供的触觉增强机构,所述电子设备还包括柔性显示屏200;
柔性显示屏200设于收容槽11的槽口或设于触感增强机构的背离收容槽11的槽口的一侧;
在柔性显示屏200设于收容槽11的槽口的情况下,触感增强机构推动柔性显示屏200发生形变。
在实施中,触觉增强机构中的控制单元可以是电子设备的处理器。
示例性的,本申请实施例中的电子设备可以为手机、平板电脑、笔记本电脑、掌上电脑、车载电子设备、移动上网装置(Mobile Internet Device,MID)、增强现实(Augmented Reality,AR)/虚拟现实(Virtual Reality,VR)设备、机器人、可穿戴设备、超级移动个人计算机(Ultra-Mobile Personal Computer,UMPC)、上网本或者个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant,PDA)等,还可以为服务器、网络附属存储器(Network Attached Storage,NAS)、个人计算机(Personal Computer,PC)、电视机(Television,TV)、柜员机或者自助机等,本申请实施例不作具体限定。通过在该电子设备上装配触觉增强机构,从而使得电子设备能够为视觉障碍人群提供触觉反馈。
在一种实施方式中,可以将显示屏与触感增强单元100相背设置,以使触感增强单元100所形成的触感增强内容位于显示屏的背面,在用户使用电子设备的过程中,显示屏可以朝向用户的脸部,且用户的手部接触电子设备的背面,这样,在从显示屏上查看显示内容的同时,还可以触摸电子设备背面的触感增强内容,以获取触觉反馈。
在一种实施方式中,可以将触感增强单元100设置在柔性显示屏200的下方,从而在触感增强单元100的上表面发生形变时,能够使贴设在柔性封 装层3上的柔性显示屏200也发生相应的形变。这样,可以在显示屏上集成触感增强机构,以利用显示屏进行触感增强反馈。
值得注意的是,在实施中,柔性显示屏200的下方可以设置大量的触感增强单元100,该触感增强单元100甚至可以与柔性显示屏200的像素一一对应,例如:一个像素与一个触感增强单元100正对设置。
在实施中,上述柔性显示屏200可以是触控显示屏,这样,在用户触摸柔性显示屏200,以获取触觉反馈时,触控显示屏还可以获取用户触摸的位置,从而确定用户触摸的触感增强内容,以及形成该触感增强内容的触感增强单元或者该触感增强内容对应的显示内容等,从而获知用户执行的触控操作,进而实现相应的触觉反馈。例如:在触控显示屏显示文字的情况下,触感增强机构可以在每一个文字的位置处形成对应的盲文,用户触摸该盲文进行阅读使,电子设备可以获取用户触摸的位置,从而获取用户阅读的速度,这样,有助于实现文字切换与用户阅读速度的匹配,或者在用户阅读至文字末尾时,及时的切换触感增强机构形成的盲文等。
需要说明的是,在实际应用中,除了将触感增强机构设置在柔性显示屏的下方之外,还可以将显示屏和触感增强机构设置在电子设备上的不同区域,以使用户通过显示屏进行视觉反馈,并通过触感增强机构进行触觉反馈,在此不构成具体限定。
本申请实施例还提供一种触感增强方法,该方法可以应用于上一实施例中提供的电子设备,如图6所示,该触感增强方法可以包括以下步骤:
步骤601、控制单元获取目标触感增强单元和所述目标触感增强单元各自的目标工作模式;
步骤602、所述控制单元控制所述目标触感增强单元工作于各自对应的目标工作模式,以在柔性封装层上形成触感增强内容。
在实施中,控制单元可以根据触觉反馈需求来确定目标触感增强单元以及目标触感增强单元各自的目标工作模式,其中,目标触感增强单元可以包括一个触感增强单元或者至少两个触感增强单元,且在目标触感增强单元包括至少两个触感增强单元时,每一个触感增强单元的目标工作模式可以相同或者不同。
这样,在控制单元控制所述目标触感增强单元工作于各自对应的目标工作模式时,能够通过触觉增强机构形成用于满足触觉反馈需求的触觉增强内容,例如:在指定的位置形成一个立体图标、在指定位置形成一段盲文等。
可选的,电子设备的显示屏与触感增强机构可以共用一个控制单元,例如:共用电子设备的处理器,该处理器还可以根据显示屏的显示内容、用户配置等信息确定需要触感强化的区域、以及确定该需要触感强化的区域中的触感增强单元各自的目标工作模式,并控制该需要触感强化的区域中的触感增强单元按照各自的目标工作模式进行工作,以实现相应的触觉反馈。
作为一种可选的实施方式,所述控制单元获取目标触感增强单元和所述目标触感增强单元各自的目标工作模式,包括:
控制单元获取第一信息,所述第一信息包括:柔性显示屏的显示内容和所述显示内容的显示位置;
所述控制单元根据所述第一信息,确定目标触感增强单元和所述目标触感增强单元各自的目标工作模式,其中,所述目标触感增强单元的位置与所述显示位置对应,所述目标触感增强单元各自的目标工作模式与所述显示内容对应。
在实施中,柔性显示屏上显示的内容可以是文字、图片、图标等任意内容,控制单元根据所述第一信息,确定目标触感增强单元和所述目标触感增强单元各自的目标工作模式后,可以控制目标触感增强单元工作于各自的目标工作模式,以形成与文字对应的盲文、与图片对应浮雕图、与图标对应的触感等触觉增强内容,以使用户通过触摸该触觉增强内容便可以将柔性显示屏上显示的内容以触觉反馈的方式传达给用户。例如:如图7所示,在显示内容为图片验证码时,电子设备可以识别图片中的验证码,并通过触觉反馈的方式形成验证码的盲文。
值得提出的是,在相关技术中,对于部分视觉障碍消费者在使用手机过程中,在如图7所示场景下进行验证码输入时需要使用到手机的辅助功能进行输入辅助时。目前主流的辅助手段为:通过放大字体,增加语音助手等手段来达到辅助用户输入正确的验证码的功能,如:智能语音助手通过识别图片,自动播报识别内容,以辅导用户输入正确信息,完成身份验证动作。
再例如:如图8所示图形+位置对准类的验证场景下,需要用户拖动滑块至指定区域,完成拼图,此时,相关技术中的语音助手并不能有效的辅导用户完成相关操作。而本申请实施例中,可以借助视觉障碍用户最熟悉的触觉方式来辅助用户完成相应操作,如:在滑块和指定区域分别形成特定的触觉反馈,以使用户根据触觉的辅助来获知滑块和指定区域的位置,从而实现将滑块拖动至指定区域。
本实施方式中,控制单元能够根据柔性显示屏的显示内容和所述显示内容的显示位置,在触感增强机构的相应位置形成与显示内容相对应的触感增强内容,以辅助用户通过触觉感知来识别柔性显示屏上显示的内容,和/或辅助用户通过触觉感知来操作电子设备。
可选地,所述显示内容包括文字内容,所述显示位置包括所述柔性显示屏显示的每一个文字的显示区域;
所述控制单元根据所述第一信息,确定目标触感增强单元和所述目标触感增强单元各自的目标工作模式,包括:
所述控制单元确定与目标文字的显示区域对应的目标触感增强单元,并确定所述目标触感增强单元各自的目标工作模式,其中,所述目标触感增强单元工作于各自的目标工作模式,以在所述柔性显示屏上形成与所述目标文字对应的盲文,所述柔性显示屏显示的文字内容包括所述目标文字。
在实施中,上述目标触感增强单元可以是与显示有文字的显示位置正对的触感增强单元。当然,在目标触感增强单元的数量较少的情况下,目标触感增强单元可以轮流显示不同的盲文,例如:将一段文字划分为M段,M为大于1的整数,目标触感增强单元可以包括触感增强机构中的全部触感增强单元,这样,目标触感增强单元可以分M次轮流形成每一段文字的盲文。
在实施中,还可以获取用户触摸的触感增强单元的标识信息(如:位置信息),在用户依次阅读目标触感增强单元形成的盲文时,可以根据用户触摸的触感增强单元的变化来确定用户阅读盲文的速度,并据此匹配用户阅读盲文的速度;或者根据用户触摸的触感增强单元的变化来确定用户是否阅读至当前显示的盲文中的最后一个,从而据此在用户阅读至当前显示的盲文中的最后一个时,控制目标触感增强单元形成下一段盲文。
可选地,所述显示内容包括预设图标;
所述控制单元根据所述第一信息,确定目标触感增强单元和所述目标触感增强单元各自的目标工作模式,包括:
所述控制单元根据所述预设图标的显示位置,确定目标触感增强单元;
所述控制单元根据所述预设图标的类型,确定所述目标触感增强单元各自的目标工作模式。
本实施方式中,可以为不同的图标配置不同的触觉增强模式,这样,在显示屏显示某一图标或显示某一些图标时,能够根据每一个图标的显示位置来确定用于形成该图标的触觉反馈的触感增强单元,例如:利用某一图标的显示位置正下方的触感增强单元来形成该图标的触觉反馈。此外,还可以根据每一个图标的所配置的触觉增强模式来确定形成该图标的触觉反馈的触感增强单元的工作模式。
例如:假设显示屏上显示了音乐播放功能的按钮:播放按钮、暂停按钮、下一曲按钮。则可以通过控制显示有播放按钮的位置对应的触感增强单元工作于第一工作模式,以在显示有播放按钮的位置处形成第一触感的按键;控制显示有暂停按钮的位置对应的触感增强单元工作于第二工作模式,以在显示有暂停按钮的位置处形成第二触感的按键;控制显示有下一曲按钮的位置对应的触感增强单元工作于第三工作模式,以在显示有下一曲按钮的位置处形成第三触感的按键,这样,用户通过各个按键的触感便可以区分每一个按键的功能或类型,从而执行相应的操作。
可选的,上述预设图标还可以关联各自的按键音效、震动模式等,以在用户触控该预设图标时,使电子设备发出该预设图标所关联的按键音效,或产生与该预设图标所关联的震动,能够起到通过音效或震动来提示用户的实际操作与用户想要执行的操作是否匹配的效果,提升了用户体验。
在实施中,在用户触摸显示屏以获取触觉感知过程中,用户可以关闭触控功能(例如:按压侧边的硬件按钮,或双指触摸显示屏),以关闭触控功能,并在用户获取完触觉反馈内容后,开启触控功能,以进行触控操作,这样可以减少用户在触摸显示屏以获取触觉感知过程中,发生误触控操作的概率。
作为一种可选的实施方式,所述触觉增强方法还包括:
所述控制单元获取对所述柔性显示屏的触控信息;
所述控制单元根据所述触控信息,确定目标触感增强内容,其中,所述目标触感增强内容为与所述触控位置信息对应的触感增强单元所输出的内容;

本实施方式下,电子设备在接收对触控显示屏的触控操作时,能够根据用户所触控的目标触感增强内容,来获取用户的触觉感知信息,例如:根据用户所触控的盲文来获取用户阅读盲文的进度,从而根据该进度来确定切换触感增强单元形成的盲文的时机等;或者根据用户对触觉增强按钮的触控操作来获取用户需要执行的指令,并按照该指令执行相应的操作等等。
可选的,所述控制单元控制所述目标触感增强单元工作于各自对应的目标工作模式,以在柔性显示屏层上形成触感增强内容,包括:
在息屏模式下,所述控制单元控制所述目标触感增强单元工作于各自对应的目标工作模式以在柔性显示屏上形成凸起的预设按钮;
所述控制单元执行与所述目标触感增强内容相对应的响应,包括:
所述控制单元执行与所述预设按钮关联的命令组合或功能。
在实施中,上述预设按钮为在息屏模式下能够以触感反馈的形成于显示屏上的触感增强按钮,在用户未唤醒电子设备的情况下,用户也可以通过触摸显示屏而找到该预设按钮的位置,从而对该预设按钮进行触控操作。该预设操作可以与命令组合或功能预先关联,其中,设按钮关联的命令组合或功能可以是用户预先设置的。例如:用户通过系统设置的方式,将预设按钮与拨打紧急联系人电话的命令组合关联,这样,在用户触控该预设按钮时,能够控制电子设备执行拨打紧急联系人电话的操作。当然,在实施中,预设按钮关联的命令组合或功能可以是出厂设置的,在此不作具体限定。
本实施方式中,能够在息屏模式下,形成可供用户触摸和操作的触感增强按钮,从而在息屏模式下,能够使用户基于该触感增强按钮执行快捷操作。
