本发明涉及一种触控显示装置、触控显示系统及其调整触控区域的方法,特别是一种可调整触控区域的触控显示装置、触控显示系统及其调整触控区域的方法。The present invention relates to a touch display device, a touch display system and a method for adjusting a touch area thereof, in particular to a touch display device capable of adjusting a touch area, a touch display system and a method for adjusting a touch area .

背景技术 Background technique

随着科技的进步,对于触控显示系统的应用亦日益增加。以微

The new generation operating system launched by the company
Figure G2009101800982D00012
7 as an example, the operating system already supports the touch display system.

在先前技术当中,触控显示系统通常是将计算机系统所输出的影像信号显示于触控显示装置,再将触控区域中被触控的坐标值回传至计算机系统以进行操作。先前技术也公开一种触控显示装置,其触控模块是利用一透明触控面板设置于一般的显示器前,并且触控模块可将触控面板上被触控的坐标信号回传至计算机系统,以控制计算机系统。In the prior art, the touch display system usually displays the image signal output by the computer system on the touch display device, and then returns the touched coordinates in the touch area to the computer system for operation. The prior art also discloses a touch display device, the touch module of which is arranged in front of a general display using a transparent touch panel, and the touch module can return the coordinate signal touched on the touch panel to the computer system , to control the computer system.

因此一般而言,触控显示装置所显示的影像画面应该与触控区域一致。但在先前技术当中,由于显示器的规格、大小与信号分辨率的设定不同,因此显示器会具有显示状态的设定,如Aspect、Full或是1∶1等显示设定。其中Aspect是使得显示于显示器的影像画面能够呈现上下顶边的效果,而1∶1是以真实分辨率点对点的方式,将影像画面正常的显示于显示器的正中央但如此一来,显示器的上下或是左右就可能会产生无作用区域,其中无作用区域为显示器不显示影像画面的区域,亦俗称为黑区(Black Area)。Therefore, generally speaking, the image screen displayed by the touch display device should be consistent with the touch area. However, in the prior art, since the specifications, sizes, and signal resolutions of the monitors are set differently, the monitors have display state settings, such as aspect, full, or 1:1 display settings. Among them, Aspect is to make the video screen displayed on the monitor show the effect of the top and bottom edges, and 1:1 is to display the video screen in the center of the monitor in a point-to-point manner with real resolution, but in this way, the top and bottom of the monitor Or there may be inactive areas on the left and right, where the inactive areas are areas where the display does not display images, and are also commonly known as black areas.

以下请参考图1,关于先前技术的触控显示装置的显示器画面示意图。如图1所示,假设此时显示状态设定为1∶1,而影像分辨率为1280*800,则由于信号分辨率与显示状态的设定,在显示器画面90会同时显示出影像画面92及无作用区域93。然而,触控模块无法得知其影像画面92的范围,因此仍将触控区域91视为整个显示器画面90的大小。因此当使用者要按压影像画面92的按压点A时,实际上必须要按压到按压点A’才能对应到按压点A。因此,对使用者来说会极为不便。Please refer to FIG. 1 below, which is a schematic diagram of a display screen of a touch display device in the prior art. As shown in Figure 1, assuming that the display state is set to 1:1 at this time, and the video resolution is 1280*800, then due to the setting of the signal resolution and display state, the video screen 92 will be displayed on the display screen 90 at the same time. And ineffective area 93. However, the touch module cannot know the range of its image frame 92 , so it still regards the touch area 91 as the size of the entire display frame 90 . Therefore, when the user wants to press the pressing point A of the image screen 92, in fact, the pressing point A' must be pressed to correspond to the pressing point A. Therefore, it will be extremely inconvenient for the user.

有鉴于此,有必要发明一种新的触控显示系统与调整触控区域的方法,以解决先前技术的缺失。In view of this, it is necessary to invent a new touch display system and a method for adjusting the touch area to solve the deficiency of the prior art.

本发明的触控显示系统1包括触控显示装置10、计算机系统20以及对照表T。触控显示装置10与计算机系统20电性连接,可接收影像信号。触控显示装置10包括触控模块11及显示器12。触控模块11提供一具有触控功能的触控区域31,使得使用者在此触控区域31内能以触控方式控制计算机系统20。显示器12具有显示功能,能在其显示器画面30上显示出代表影像信号的影像画面32。显示器12具有显示状态调整模块121,显示状态调整模块121能控制显示器12的显示状态的设定,如Aspect、Full或是1∶1等显示设定。藉由显示状态的设定,能让影像画面32正常的显示于显示器12的正中央,并通过上下顶边或是真实点对点的方式呈现。在本发明的一实施例中,显示状态调整模块121可为电子电路、软件、硬件、固件或其结合的方式组成,但本发明不以此为限。The touch display system 1 of the present invention includes a touch display device 10 , a computer system 20 and a comparison table T. As shown in FIG. The touch display device 10 is electrically connected to the computer system 20 to receive image signals. The touch display device 10 includes a touch module 11 and a display 12 . The touch module 11 provides a touch area 31 with a touch function, so that the user can control the computer system 20 in the touch area 31 by touch. The display 12 has a display function, and can display an image frame 32 representing an image signal on its display screen 30 . The display 12 has a display state adjustment module 121 , and the display state adjustment module 121 can control the setting of the display state of the display 12 , such as aspect, full or 1:1 display settings. By setting the display state, the image frame 32 can be normally displayed in the center of the display 12, and presented by the upper and lower top edges or in a real point-to-point manner. In an embodiment of the present invention, the display state adjustment module 121 may be composed of electronic circuits, software, hardware, firmware or a combination thereof, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

计算机系统20具有能支持触控功能的操作系统21,用以输出影像信号到显示器12上以显示出代表影像信号的影像画面32。影像信号皆具有其影像分辨率。藉由不同的影像分辨率及显示状态的搭配,即可在显示器画面30上显示出不同范围的影像画面32。The computer system 20 has an operating system 21 capable of supporting touch functions, and is used to output image signals to the display 12 to display an image frame 32 representing the image signals. The video signals all have their video resolutions. By matching different image resolutions and display states, different ranges of image frames 32 can be displayed on the display screen 30 .

以下是以图3所示的显示器画面30为例,假设本实施例的显示状态调整模块121设定显示器12的显示状态为1∶1,而显示器12接收的影像信号的影像分辨率为1280*800。由图3可得知在显示器画面30除了显示出影像画面32外,还包括显示出无作用区域33,其中无作用区域33为显示器12未显示影像画面32的区域。而此时触控显示系统1即藉由操作系统21或是触控模块11进行调整,使得触控区域31的范围与影像画面32相对应。其调整方法在之后会有详细的描述,故在此不再赘述。The following is an example of display screen 30 shown in FIG. 800. It can be known from FIG. 3 that in addition to displaying the video frame 32 , the display screen 30 also includes a non-active area 33 , wherein the non-active area 33 is an area where the display 12 does not display the video frame 32 . At this time, the touch display system 1 is adjusted by the operating system 21 or the touch module 11 so that the range of the touch area 31 corresponds to the image frame 32 . The adjustment method will be described in detail later, so it will not be repeated here.

The touch display system 1 can know the coordinates to be adjusted of the touch area 31 by comparing the image resolution and the display state with the comparison table T. The comparison table T can be established in different modules according to the requirements of different implementations, and the present invention is not limited thereto. The detailed comparison method will be described in detail later, so it will not be repeated here.

接着请参考图4到图6,关于本发明的调整触控区域方法的各实施方式的步骤流程图。此处需注意的是,以下的各实施方式虽以具有触控显示装置10的触控显示系统1为例说明本发明的调整触控区域的方法,但本发明的调整触控区域的方法并不以使用在触控显示系统1为限。Next, please refer to FIG. 4 to FIG. 6 , which are flowcharts of steps of various implementations of the method for adjusting the touch area of the present invention. It should be noted here that although the following embodiments use the touch display system 1 with the touch display device 10 as an example to illustrate the method for adjusting the touch area of the present invention, the method for adjusting the touch area of the present invention does not It is not limited to use in the touch display system 1 .

首先请先参考图4,图4为关于本发明的调整触控区域方法的第一实施方式的步骤流程图。First of all, please refer to FIG. 4 , which is a flow chart of the steps of the first embodiment of the method for adjusting the touch area of the present invention.

首先进行步骤401:接收影像信号,并在触控显示装置显示代表影像信号的影像画面。First proceed to step 401: receive an image signal, and display an image frame representing the image signal on the touch display device.

计算机系统20传输影像信号到触控显示装置10。触控显示装置10接收影像信号后,能在显示器12上显示出代表影像信号的影像画面32。The computer system 20 transmits the image signal to the touch display device 10 . After receiving the image signal, the touch display device 10 can display an image frame 32 representing the image signal on the display 12 .

接着进行步骤402:藉由显示状态调整模块检测并取得信号分辨率及显示状态。Then proceed to step 402 : detect and obtain the signal resolution and the display state by the display state adjustment module.

在此步骤402中,显示状态调整模块121检测并取得从计算机系统20传来的影像信号的信号分辨率,以及得知显示状态调整模块121本身所设定的,亦即触控显示装置10所显示的显示状态。In this step 402, the display state adjustment module 121 detects and obtains the signal resolution of the image signal transmitted from the computer system 20, and obtains the resolution set by the display state adjustment module 121 itself, that is, the touch display device 10 The displayed display state.

再进行步骤403:藉由触控模块或显示状态调整模块判断是否同时显示出影像画面及无作用区域。Then go to step 403: judge whether to display the image frame and the inactive area at the same time by the touch module or the display state adjustment module.

在此步骤403中,可藉由触控模块11或是显示状态调整模块121来进行判断。In this step 403 , the determination can be made by the touch module 11 or the display state adjustment module 121 .

以下先以利用触控模块11进行判断的实施方式为例进行说明。在此实施例中,对照表T设置于触控模块11内。由于在步骤402中已经检测出信号分辨率及显示状态,显示状态调整模块121将其检测结果传递至触控模块11。触控模块11根据检测结果,直接藉由查询对照表T以得知此时显示器画面30为何。如此一来,触控模块11即可判断出显示器12是否同时显示影像画面32及无作用区域33。In the following, the implementation of judging by the touch module 11 is taken as an example for description. In this embodiment, the comparison table T is set in the touch module 11 . Since the signal resolution and display state have been detected in step 402 , the display state adjustment module 121 transmits the detection result to the touch module 11 . According to the detection result, the touch module 11 directly checks the comparison table T to know what the display screen 30 is at this time. In this way, the touch module 11 can determine whether the display 12 displays the image frame 32 and the inactive area 33 at the same time.

另一方面,显示状态调整模块121亦可得知信号分辨率及显示状态后,直接查询对照表T以进行判断。而在此一实施例中,对照表T设置于显示状态调整模块121内。接着显示状态调整模块121判断出显示器12是否同时显示影像画面32及无作用区域33,再根据判断结果产生一对应信号。最后将对应信号传输至触控模块11,让触控模块11可直接进行后续的处理。如此一来,触控模块11即可藉由对应信号直接得知显示器12是否同时显示影像画面32及无作用区域33。On the other hand, the display state adjustment module 121 may directly query the comparison table T for judgment after knowing the signal resolution and the display state. In this embodiment, the comparison table T is set in the display state adjustment module 121 . Then the display state adjustment module 121 judges whether the display 12 displays the image frame 32 and the inactive area 33 at the same time, and then generates a corresponding signal according to the judgment result. Finally, the corresponding signal is transmitted to the touch module 11, so that the touch module 11 can directly perform subsequent processing. In this way, the touch module 11 can directly know whether the display 12 displays the image frame 32 and the inactive area 33 at the same time through the corresponding signal.

需注意的是,触控模块11或显示状态调整模块121亦可根据显示状态及信号分辨率直接计算出是否会显示出无作用区域33。It should be noted that the touch module 11 or the display state adjustment module 121 can also directly calculate whether the inactive area 33 will be displayed according to the display state and signal resolution.

上述触控模块11与显示状态调整模块121之间数据的传输可经由其内部集成电路(Inter-Integrated Circuit,I2C)进行传输,但本发明并不以此为限。The data transmission between the above-mentioned touch module 11 and the display state adjustment module 121 can be transmitted through its internal integrated circuit (Inter-Integrated Circuit, I2C), but the present invention is not limited thereto.

若显示器画面30上只显示出影像画面32,则代表触控区域31与影像画面32已经为互相对应的状态,因此即结束上述的判断流程。If only the image frame 32 is displayed on the display screen 30, it means that the touch area 31 and the image frame 32 are already in a corresponding state, and thus the above-mentioned determination process ends.

若显示器画面30上同时显示出影像画面32与无作用区域33,即代表触控区域31与影像画面32的范围并不相符,因此即进行步骤404:藉由触控模块调整触控区域的坐标,以使触控区域与影像画面的范围相对应。If the image frame 32 and the inactive area 33 are displayed on the display screen 30 at the same time, it means that the range of the touch area 31 and the image frame 32 do not match, so step 404 is performed: adjusting the coordinates of the touch area by the touch module , so that the touch area corresponds to the range of the image screen.

此步骤404请同时参考图4A,关于本发明的触控显示装置的调整触控区域后的示意图。For this step 404, please also refer to FIG. 4A , which is a schematic diagram of the adjusted touch area of the touch display device of the present invention.

由于藉由查询对照表T或是直接根据信号分辨率及显示状态进行计算,触控模块11已经知道在此信号分辨率及显示状态下,影像画面32的范围为何。因此步骤404即如图4A所示,触控模块11将触控区域31的起始与结束的坐标重新定义,使其起始与结束的坐标能与影像画面32的范围相对应。By looking up the comparison table T or directly calculating according to the signal resolution and display state, the touch module 11 already knows what the range of the image frame 32 is under the signal resolution and display state. Therefore, in step 404 , as shown in FIG. 4A , the touch module 11 redefines the start and end coordinates of the touch area 31 so that the start and end coordinates correspond to the range of the image frame 32 .

如此一来,使用者即可精准地操作触控显示装置10。In this way, the user can precisely operate the touch display device 10 .

需注意的是,本实施例亦可再继续进行步骤405:重新定义无作用区域的范围,以增加触控区域的范围。It should be noted that this embodiment can also continue to step 405: redefine the range of the inactive area to increase the range of the touch area.

在步骤404将触控区域31的坐标重新调整的步骤后,触控模块11亦可将无作用区域33的范围重新定义,增加该触控区域31的范围,以使触控区域31更能与影像画面32的范围互相对应。细言之,触控模块11可将触控区域31的范围设定成稍微大于影像画面32的范围,亦即稍微覆盖至无作用区域33,以增加触控区域31的范围。如此一来,使用者在操作触控区域31位于四个角落的按键时,例如按下“关闭窗口”的按键时,会更加地便利。After the step of readjusting the coordinates of the touch area 31 in step 404, the touch module 11 can also redefine the range of the inactive area 33 to increase the range of the touch area 31 so that the touch area 31 can be more compatible with The ranges of the image frames 32 correspond to each other. In detail, the touch module 11 can set the range of the touch area 31 to be slightly larger than the range of the image frame 32 , that is, slightly cover the inactive area 33 , so as to increase the range of the touch area 31 . In this way, it will be more convenient for the user to operate the buttons located at the four corners of the touch area 31 , for example, when pressing the “close window” button.

本发明调整触控区域方法亦可利用以下所述的第二实施方式达到。接着请参考图5,图5为关于本发明的调整触控区域方法的第二实施方式的步骤流程图。The method for adjusting the touch area of the present invention can also be achieved by using the second embodiment described below. Next, please refer to FIG. 5 . FIG. 5 is a flow chart of the steps of the second embodiment of the method for adjusting the touch area of the present invention.

本发明的调整触控区域方法的第二实施方式首先进行步骤501:接收影像信号,并在触控显示装置显示代表影像信号的影像画面。The second embodiment of the method for adjusting the touch area of the present invention firstly performs step 501 : receiving an image signal, and displaying an image frame representing the image signal on the touch display device.

与步骤401相同,计算机系统20传输影像信号到触控显示装置10,使得触控显示装置10接收影像信号后,能在显示器12上显示出影像画面32。Same as step 401 , the computer system 20 transmits the image signal to the touch display device 10 , so that the touch display device 10 can display the image frame 32 on the display 12 after receiving the image signal.

其次进行步骤502:藉由操作系统或显示状态调整模块检测并取得信号分辨率及显示状态。Next, proceed to step 502: detect and obtain signal resolution and display status through the operating system or the display status adjustment module.

在此步骤502中,操作系统21检测并取得计算机系统20本身所输出影像信号的信号分辨率,以及经由显示状态调整模块121得知触控显示装置10所显示的显示状态。另一方面,操作系统21亦可利用显示状态调整模块121同时检测并得知其显示状态及回传信号分辨率,本发明并不以此为限。In this step 502 , the operating system 21 detects and obtains the signal resolution of the image signal output by the computer system 20 itself, and obtains the display state displayed by the touch display device 10 through the display state adjustment module 121 . On the other hand, the operating system 21 can also use the display state adjustment module 121 to simultaneously detect and obtain its display state and the resolution of the returned signal, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

计算机系统20与显示状态调整模块121之间可藉由显示数据信道/命令接口(DisplayData Channel/Command Interface,DDC/CI)进行数据传递,但本发明并不以此为限。Data transmission can be performed between the computer system 20 and the display state adjustment module 121 through a Display Data Channel/Command Interface (DDC/CI), but the present invention is not limited thereto.

接着进行步骤503:藉由操作系统判断是否同时显示出影像画面及无作用区域。Then proceed to step 503 : determine whether to display the image frame and the inactive area at the same time by the operating system.

在此实施例中,对照表T建立于操作系统21中。得知信号分辨率及显示状态后,操作系统21利用查询对照表T以判断此信号分辨率及显示状态是否会在显示器画面30上显示出影像画面32及无作用区域33。另一方面,操作系统21亦可根据显示状态及信号分辨率直接计算出是否会显示出无作用区域33。In this embodiment, the comparison table T is established in the operating system 21 . After knowing the signal resolution and display state, the operating system 21 uses the query table T to determine whether the signal resolution and display state will display the image frame 32 and the inactive area 33 on the display screen 30 . On the other hand, the operating system 21 can also directly calculate whether to display the inactive area 33 according to the display status and signal resolution.

若显示器画面30上未显示出无作用区域33,则结束此调整的流程。If the inactive area 33 is not displayed on the display screen 30, the adjustment process is ended.

若显示器画面30显示出无作用区域33,则进行步骤504:藉由操作系统调整触控区域的坐标,以使触控区域与影像画面的范围相对应。If the display screen 30 displays the inactive area 33 , proceed to step 504 : adjust the coordinates of the touch area through the operating system, so that the touch area corresponds to the range of the video image.

由于藉由查询对照表T或是直接根据信号分辨率及显示状态进行计算,操作系统21已知无作用区域33的范围,因此在此步骤504中,计算机系统20更改操作系统21的设定,直接将控制无作用区域33的触控信号滤除掉,以重新定义触控区域31的坐标。换言之,计算机系统20在处理由触控模块11传来的触控信号时,直接将触控信号更改至影像画面32上相对应的位置,而无作用区域33部分的触控信号或是影像则视为不存在。如此一来,即如图4A所示,操作系统21即可直接利用其内部的设定将触控区域31的坐标重新定位,使其能与影像画面32互相对应。Since the operating system 21 knows the range of the inactive area 33 by querying the comparison table T or directly calculating according to the signal resolution and display state, so in step 504, the computer system 20 changes the setting of the operating system 21, The touch signals controlling the inactive area 33 are directly filtered out to redefine the coordinates of the touch area 31 . In other words, when the computer system 20 processes the touch signal transmitted from the touch module 11, it directly changes the touch signal to the corresponding position on the image screen 32, while the touch signal or image in the inactive area 33 is deemed not to exist. In this way, as shown in FIG. 4A , the operating system 21 can directly use its internal settings to reposition the coordinates of the touch area 31 so that they can correspond to the image screen 32 .

同样地,第二实施例亦可再继续进行步骤505:重新定义无作用区域的范围,以增加触控区域的范围。Similarly, the second embodiment can continue to step 505: redefine the range of the inactive area to increase the range of the touch area.

操作系统21亦可将触控信号所能接收的范围设定成稍微大于影像画面32的范围,以增加触控区域31的范围,以使触控区域31更能与影像画面32的范围互相对应,以方便使用者操作。The operating system 21 can also set the range that the touch signal can receive to be slightly larger than the range of the image screen 32, so as to increase the range of the touch area 31, so that the touch area 31 can be more corresponding to the range of the image screen 32 , for user convenience.

接着请参考图6,图6为关于本发明的调整触控区域方法的第三实施方式的步骤流程图。Next, please refer to FIG. 6 . FIG. 6 is a flow chart of the steps of the third embodiment of the method for adjusting the touch area of the present invention.

首先进行步骤601:接收影像信号,并在触控显示装置显示代表影像信号的影像画面。First proceed to step 601: receive an image signal, and display an image frame representing the image signal on the touch display device.

此步骤601与步骤501相同。计算机系统20传输影像信号到触控显示装置10,使得触控显示装置10接收影像信号后,能在显示器12上显示出影像画面32。This step 601 is the same as step 501. The computer system 20 transmits the image signal to the touch display device 10 , so that the touch display device 10 can display an image frame 32 on the display 12 after receiving the image signal.

再进行步骤602:藉由操作系统或显示状态调整模块检测并取得信号分辨率及显示状态。Then go to step 602: detect and obtain the signal resolution and display status through the operating system or the display status adjustment module.

操作系统21检测并取得计算机系统20本身所传送的信号分辨率,或从显示状态调整模块121同时得知信号分辨率及其显示状态。此步骤602与步骤502相同。The operating system 21 detects and obtains the signal resolution transmitted by the computer system 20 itself, or simultaneously obtains the signal resolution and its display state from the display state adjustment module 121 . This step 602 is the same as step 502 .

接着进行步骤603:藉由操作系统判断是否同时显示出影像画面及无作用区域。Then proceed to step 603 : judge whether to display the image frame and the inactive area at the same time by the operating system.

操作系统21利用对照表T或是直接根据显示状态及信号分辨率进行计算,来判断显示器画面30上是否显示出影像画面32及无作用区域33。此步骤603与步骤503相同。The operating system 21 determines whether the image frame 32 and the inactive area 33 are displayed on the display screen 30 by using the comparison table T or directly performing calculations based on the display status and signal resolution. This step 603 is the same as step 503.

若显示器画面30上未显示出无作用区域33,则结束此调整的流程。If the inactive area 33 is not displayed on the display screen 30, the adjustment process is ended.

若显示器画面30显示出了无作用区域33,则进行步骤604:藉由触控模块调整触控区域的坐标,以使触控区域与影像画面的范围相对应。If the display screen 30 displays the inactive area 33 , proceed to step 604 : adjust the coordinates of the touch area by the touch module, so that the touch area corresponds to the range of the image frame.

即如图4A所示,操作系统21将判断完毕的对应信号传递至触控模块11,让触控模块11将触控区域31的起始与结束的坐标重新定义,使其能符合影像画面32的范围,以使触控区域31与影像画面32的范围相对应。That is, as shown in FIG. 4A , the operating system 21 transmits the determined corresponding signal to the touch module 11, so that the touch module 11 redefines the coordinates of the start and end of the touch area 31 so that it can conform to the image frame 32 range, so that the touch area 31 corresponds to the range of the image screen 32 .

上述对应信号之间的传递可藉由USB接口来达到,但本发明并不以此为限。The transmission between the above corresponding signals can be achieved through the USB interface, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

同样地,第三实施例亦可再继续进行步骤605:重新定义无作用区域的范围,以增加触控区域的范围。Similarly, the third embodiment may continue to step 605: redefine the range of the inactive area to increase the range of the touch area.

触控模块11在此步骤605中可将触控区域31的范围设定成稍微大于影像画面32的范围,以增加触控区域31的范围,以使触控区域31更能与影像画面32的范围互相对应,以方便使用者操作。In this step 605, the touch module 11 can set the range of the touch area 31 to be slightly larger than the range of the image screen 32, so as to increase the range of the touch area 31, so that the touch area 31 can be more closely aligned with the range of the image screen 32. The ranges correspond to each other to facilitate user operation.

此处需注意的是,本发明的调整触控区域的方法并不以上述的步骤次序为限,只要能达到本发明的目的,上述的步骤次序亦可加以改变。It should be noted here that the method for adjusting the touch area of the present invention is not limited to the order of the above steps, as long as the purpose of the present invention can be achieved, the order of the above steps can also be changed.

另一方面,本发明亦包括另一实施方式。请参考图7,图7为关于本发明的触控显示装置显示新操作画面的示意图。On the other hand, the present invention also includes another embodiment. Please refer to FIG. 7 . FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram showing a new operation screen displayed by the touch display device of the present invention.

在上述的第一及第三实施例中,由于是利用触控模块11来将触控区域31的坐标重新定义,因此触控模块11亦可在无作用区域33的范围内再定义出新操作区域34的坐标。新操作区域34可提供收发邮件等快捷键的操作,以控制计算机系统20。另一方面,新操作区域34亦可提供对应显示器12的基本控制,如调整影像画面的亮度或是对比度等基本控制,但本发明并不以此为限。同时显示器12可在无作用区域33的范围内增加显示出新操作画面35,以使新操作区域34能与新操作画面35相对应。显示新操作画面35的方式可利用显示器12的屏幕显示技术(On-Screen Display,OSD),但本发明并不以此方式为限。由于触控模块11已经定义了新操作区域34的坐标,因此当使用者按压新操作画面35时,触控模块11即传递控制命令至计算机系统20或显示器12,使得使用者得以更方便地操作计算机系统20或显示器12。In the above-mentioned first and third embodiments, since the touch module 11 is used to redefine the coordinates of the touch area 31, the touch module 11 can also redefine a new operation within the range of the inactive area 33. Coordinates of area 34. The new operation area 34 can provide shortcut key operations such as sending and receiving emails, so as to control the computer system 20 . On the other hand, the new operation area 34 can also provide basic controls corresponding to the display 12 , such as adjusting the brightness or contrast of the image screen, etc., but the present invention is not limited thereto. At the same time, the display 12 can increase and display the new operation picture 35 within the scope of the inactive area 33 , so that the new operation area 34 can correspond to the new operation picture 35 . The way to display the new operation picture 35 can utilize the On-Screen Display (OSD) technology of the display 12, but the present invention is not limited to this way. Since the touch module 11 has defined the coordinates of the new operation area 34, when the user presses the new operation screen 35, the touch module 11 transmits the control command to the computer system 20 or the display 12, so that the user can operate more conveniently. Computer system 20 or display 12 .

综上所陈,本发明无论就目的、手段及功效,处处均显示其迥异于公知技术的特征,恳请审查员明察,早日赐准专利,使嘉惠社会,实感德便。惟应注意的是,上述诸多实施例仅是为了便于说明而举例而已,本发明所要求保护的权利范围自然应当以权利要求书的范围所述的为准,而非仅限于上述实施例。To sum up, the present invention, regardless of its purpose, means, and efficacy, shows its characteristics that are completely different from the known technology. I urge the examiner to be aware of it and grant a patent as soon as possible to benefit the society. I really appreciate it. However, it should be noted that the above-mentioned embodiments are only examples for the convenience of description, and the scope of rights claimed in the present invention should naturally be based on the scope of the claims, rather than limited to the above-mentioned embodiments.
