detailed description

Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, the same numerals in different drawings refer to the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the following exemplary examples do not represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with aspects of the present disclosure as recited in the appended claims.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a user's one-handed manipulation. As shown in Figure 1, when the user holds the electronic device with one hand, the formed single-hand manipulation range (that is, the shaded area shown in Figure 1) usually refers to the arc-shaped area formed by the user's thumb. This is not limited; then, in related technologies, by scaling the content displayed on the screen, it can basically enter the user's one-handed control range, thereby ensuring that the user can realize one-handed control.

However, in addition to the content displayed on the screen, physical buttons on the electronic device are often ignored in related technologies, such as the three physical buttons directly below the screen of the electronic device shown in Figure 1. When the user uses the right hand as shown in Figure 1 to hold the In this way, it is obvious that the one-handed control range can only basically cover the middle button and the right button, but cannot cover the left button, and the physical button on the electronic device obviously cannot change its physical position through methods such as "zooming", so that the user When manipulating the relevant physical buttons, it is still impossible to achieve one-handed manipulation.

Therefore, the present disclosure solves the above-mentioned problems in the related art by improving the one-handed control solution.

Fig. 2 is a flow chart of a method for configuring key functions according to an exemplary embodiment. As shown in Fig. 2, the method is used in an electronic device and may include the following steps:

In step 202, a grip characteristic parameter is collected through a preset sensor located at a frame of the electronic device.

In step 204, according to the conformity between the holding characteristic parameters and the predefined left-hand holding characteristic parameters or right-hand holding characteristic parameters, it is identified that the electronic device is held in a left-handed or right-handed manner.

In this embodiment, when the preset sensor is a pressure sensor, the grip characteristic parameter may include at least one of the following: force-bearing position and force-bearing area. In this embodiment, by collecting the grip characteristic parameters when the user grips the electronic device, the gesture characteristics of the user when gripping the electronic device can be inferred, so as to accurately determine the user's grip mode.

Certainly, the preset sensor may also include other types, and the recognition of the gripping manner may be realized through corresponding types of gripping characteristic parameters, which is not limited in the present disclosure. For example, the preset sensor can also be a light sensor, so as to recognize the user's holding method according to the blocked state of the light sensor: when the user uses the left hand to hold the electronic device, the left frame of the electronic device is covered with a larger area, The blocked area of the right frame is small; when the user holds the electronic device with the right hand, the blocked area of the right frame of the electronic device is relatively large, and the blocked area of the left frame is small.

In step 206, the triggering function of the preset physical button on the electronic device is configured to match the held manner.

In this embodiment, the preset physical keys within the single-hand manipulation range corresponding to the gripping mode may be determined, and the preset physical keys may be configured as predefined common functions. For example, the preset physical keys may include: a group of symmetrically arranged physical keys located on the panel of the electronic device.

It can be seen from the above-mentioned embodiments that the present disclosure recognizes the one-handed holding method adopted by the user, and configures corresponding functions for the physical buttons on the electronic device, so that when the physical buttons cannot change the setting position, it can still be set according to the user's The one-handed holding method is adopted to ensure that it can realize the trigger operation of the corresponding function within the range of one-handed control, which is convenient for the user to realize the comprehensive one-handed control of the screen display content and physical buttons of the large-screen terminal.

Fig. 3 is a flow chart of another method for configuring button functions according to an exemplary embodiment. As shown in Fig. 3 , the method may include the following steps:

In step 302, grip feature parameters are collected.

In this embodiment, through the preset sensor on the electronic device, it is possible to collect the holding feature parameters when the user holds the electronic device. Among them, the preset sensor can continuously or periodically start the collection operation; or, the preset sensor can cooperate with other devices with low power consumption in the electronic device, so that when other devices detect that the electronic device is held by the user , the preset sensor starts and collects the above-mentioned grip characteristic parameters, so as to reduce the overall power consumption of the electronic device.

For example, the above-mentioned other device may be a gyroscope in the electronic device. When the gyroscope detects that the electronic device produces a predefined posture change, it may be determined that the electronic device is being held by the user, thereby prompting the preset sensor to start pairing Acquisition of grip feature parameters.

In step 304, the collected gripping feature parameters are matched with a predefined gripping scheme.

In this embodiment, the grip characteristic parameters can be collected through the preset sensor located at the frame of the electronic device, and then according to the conformity between the grip characteristic parameters and the predefined left-hand grip characteristic parameters or right-hand grip characteristic parameters , to determine the manner of being held.

In this embodiment, the preset sensor may be a pressure sensor, and the corresponding grip characteristic parameters may include at least one of the following: force-bearing position and force-bearing area. As shown in Figure 1, taking the user’s right-hand grip as an example, the thumb and palm are in contact with the right frame of the electronic device, the middle finger, ring finger and little finger are in contact with the left frame, and the index finger may be in contact with the left frame (that is, as shown in Figure 1 display) may also be located at the back cover of the electronic device; similarly, as shown in Figure 4, when the user holds the electronic device with the left hand, the thumb and palm are in contact with the left frame of the electronic device, and the middle finger, ring finger and little finger are in contact with the right frame. The frame is in contact, and the index finger may be in contact with the right frame (that is, the situation shown in FIG. 1 ) or may be located at the back cover of the electronic device.

It can be seen that when the user adopts a one-handed holding method, the force-bearing position and force-bearing area of the holding hand and the left frame and right frame of the electronic device may be different. Therefore, by pre-determining the grip characteristic parameters such as the possible force position and force area when the user uses left-hand grip or right-hand grip, to establish a corresponding predefined grip scheme (that is, the predefined left-hand grip feature parameters or right-hand grip feature parameters), the grip feature parameters collected in real time can be matched with the predefined grip scheme, so as to determine whether the user's current grip mode is left-handed or right-handed.

Of course, there are differences in other gripping characteristic parameters for different gripping modes of the user. For example, the preset sensor can also be a light sensor, so that according to the blocked state of the light sensor, the user's holding method can be identified: when the user holds it with the left hand, the left side frame of the electronic device is covered with a larger area, and the right side frame is blocked. The blocked area of the side frame is small; when the user holds the electronic device with the right hand, the blocked area of the right frame of the electronic device is relatively large, and the blocked area of the left frame is small.

In this embodiment, one type of preset sensor can be set in the same electronic device; multiple kinds of preset sensors can also be set at the same time, so as to improve the recognition accuracy of the gripping manner.

In step 306, the physical keys within the range of one-hand manipulation are determined according to the matching result.

In this embodiment, the user's single-handed manipulation distance in each holding mode can be determined through statistical analysis, and then the user's single-handed manipulation distance when holding the electronic device can be determined according to the size and specifications of the electronic device. range (such as the shaded range shown in FIG. 1 ), and the physical buttons on the electronic device within the single-hand control range.

For example, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, three physical buttons are arranged on the front bottom of the electronic device, which are respectively the menu key on the left, the home page key in the middle, and the return key on the right. In the case of the shown right-hand grip, it is within the range of one-handed control, while the menu key is located outside the range of one-handed control. However, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 , when the user holds it with the left hand, the home key and the menu key are located within the range of one-handed manipulation, while the return key is located outside the range of one-handed manipulation.

In step 308A, the functions of the physical keys within the single-hand manipulation range are configured.

Comparing Figure 1 and Figure 4, it can be seen that: assuming that among the three physical keys on the electronic device, the home key and the return key belong to the user's commonly used keys, then the user can complete the home key key by holding it with the right hand as shown in Figure 1. and the one-handed control of the return key, but in the left-hand holding mode shown in Figure 4, only the one-handed control of the home key can be completed, and the one-handed control of the return key cannot be completed.

Therefore, in this embodiment, according to the determined preset physical button that belongs to the single-handed manipulation range corresponding to the gripping mode, the preset physical button can be configured as a predefined common function. For example, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 , the menu key located within the range of one-handed manipulation can be functionally configured so that it can be configured as a "return" function, so that there is no need to change the physical position of the physical key on the electronic device. In this case, it can be ensured that users can always trigger the frequently used functions they want to use within the range of one-handed control.

"Frequently used functions" can be predefined by the user, for example, when the commonly used functions predefined by the user are "menu" and "return" functions, for the embodiment shown in Figure 1, the return key can be configured as a "menu" function, and For the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the home key may be configured as a "back" function.

Of course, the present disclosure does not limit the number of physical buttons and the number of commonly used functions on the electronic device, which may be changed as the structure of the electronic device changes; for example, as shown in FIG. , back key, and search key, and when the user holds it with the left hand, the single-handed control range can only cover the three physical keys on the left, then when the user's predefined common functions are "home page", "back ” and “Search”, you can configure the menu key as the “Search” function to meet the needs of users.

In addition, the electronic device can also configure the size of the one-handed control range according to the user's setting operation. For example, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 5, the one-handed control range can basically cover three physical buttons; while in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the one-handed control range can be configured to cover only two physical buttons according to user operations. Buttons, so as to adapt to the single-handed control situation of different users.

In step 308B, configure the functions of other physical keys outside the range of one-handed manipulation.

In this embodiment, when configuring the physical keys within the range of one-hand manipulation as predefined common functions, it is actually because the physical keys originally configured with the common functions are located outside the range of one-hand manipulation, so the single-handed The original functions of the physical buttons within the range of hand control are replaced with common functions, such as replacing the "menu" function of the leftmost menu key shown in Figure 6 with the "return" function of the return key, that is, the configured physical keys Original functions (functions before configuration) are distinguished from configured common functions.

Then, when the above-mentioned predefined commonly used functions are different from the original functions of the physical buttons, the original functions can be configured on other preset physical buttons outside the range of one-handed control, such as physical buttons originally configured with the above-mentioned commonly used functions. button. For example, as shown in Figure 6, after the "return" function is configured from the return key to the menu key, the original function of the menu key "menu" can also be configured to the return key, that is, the return key located outside the range of one-handed manipulation and The functions of the menu keys located within the reach of one hand are interchangeable.

Of course, step 308B is not necessary. For example, when configuring the commonly used function "return" to the menu key, the "return" function of the return key can still be retained, so that only the function of the menu key can be configured, which can reduce the configuration of physical keys frequency.

In step 310, the trigger function configured by the physical key is prompted.

In this embodiment, a predefined prompt manner corresponding to the trigger function may be used to prompt the trigger function configured on the preset physical button. Wherein, the prompting method may include at least one of the following: configuring a backlight color corresponding to the trigger function for the preset physical button; configuring a backlight brightness corresponding to the trigger function for the preset physical button.

For example, assuming that in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 , the colors corresponding to each trigger function are predefined, for example, the "menu" function corresponds to red, the "home page" function corresponds to yellow, and the "return" function corresponds to blue, Then when each physical key adopts the original function, that is, the backlight color of the menu key is red, the backlight color of the home key is yellow, and the backlight color of the return key is blue; After the function is configured, assuming that the menu key is configured as the "return" function and the return key is configured as the "menu" function, then the backlight color of the menu key can be changed to blue, and the backlight color of the return key can be changed to red, so that the user can according to The backlight color of each physical button can easily distinguish and identify the currently configured function of each physical button.

Similarly, assume that in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the brightness corresponding to each trigger function is predefined, for example, the "menu" function corresponds to low brightness, the "home page" function corresponds to medium brightness, and the "return" function corresponds to high brightness , then when each physical button adopts the original function, that is, the backlight brightness of the menu key is low brightness, the backlight brightness of the home button is medium brightness, and the backlight brightness of the return key is high brightness; and when the electronic device is based on the After the function configuration in the embodiment, assuming that the menu key is configured as the "return" function and the return key is configured as the "menu" function, then the backlight brightness of the menu key can be changed to high brightness, and the backlight brightness of the return key can be changed to low brightness, thereby The user can easily distinguish and identify the currently configured function of each physical button according to the backlight brightness of each physical button.

Of course, although the above-mentioned embodiment uses the physical buttons on the panel of the electronic device as an example to introduce the functional configuration solution of the physical buttons in the present disclosure, those skilled in the art should understand that: in the technical solutions of the present disclosure, only Distinguish whether the physical button is within the user's single-hand control range, without limiting the location of the physical button on the electronic device. For example, the physical button can be located not only on the panel of the electronic device, but also on the back panel, side, etc. Where, function configurations can be performed based on the technical solution of the present disclosure, which will not be repeated here.
