In the hardware design of the digital photo frame, the hardware components and circuits related to handwriting input and handwriting recognition are integrated, so that the digital photo frame is not only used to display digital photo images, but also It further has message board and calendar functions.

Please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a block diagram of an embodiment of the digital photo frame with information display function of the present invention. As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a digital photo frame 1 , which includes: a handwriting input module 11 , a control unit 12 , an image display unit 13 , a time scheduling module 14 and a memory unit 15 . Wherein, the handwriting input module 11 and the image display unit 13 can be, for example, the design of the same touch display screen module (not shown) in terms of design performance of the actual digital photo frame 1 .

The handwriting input module 11 is used to receive at least one handwriting input character input by the user, and then correspondingly form a character string information. Wherein, the handwriting input character can for example be the character of text or symbol, and those of ordinary skill in the art should be able to understand that promptly includes touch handwriting panel (Touch Panel), handwriting input program, character mapping table etc. in the handwriting input module 11 (Fig. not shown), to receive the user's handwriting input, and form character string information corresponding to the input characters handwritten by the user to output. In addition, when the handwriting input module 11 forms the character string information correspondingly, it can also add a position parameter to the character string information to record the position coordinates of the handwriting input characters input by the user.

The control unit 12 is connected to the handwriting input module 11 and the memory unit 15, and is used to receive the character string information output by the handwriting input module 11 and to access the image data stored in the memory unit 15, and the control unit 12 is mainly used for Processing the image data and setting a display format for the character string information, and then outputting a data control signal. Wherein, the actual design of the memory unit 15 can be, for example, any one or a combination of a built-in flash memory (such as: NAND flash memory) and an external memory card. Of course, if the memory unit 15 is designed to be connected with an external memory card, a corresponding memory slot (not shown) is designed in the digital photo frame 1 for inserting a memory card.

The time scheduling module 14 is connected to the control unit 12 and further includes a time module 141 and a calendar module 142 in the time scheduling module 14 . Among them, the time module 141 is used to count the date/time, and the calendar module 142 can store relevant character string information according to the date/time input by the user, and through the timing of the time module 141, the When the date or time arrives, output the string information for prompt information.

Finally, the image display unit 13 is also connected to the control unit 12 to receive the data control signal output by the control unit 12 to display the image data, and further display the character string information according to the display format and the position parameter. Thereby, when viewing the image data through the image display unit 13 , the user can see the prompt effect generated by the character string information on the image display unit 13 at the same time.

The aforementioned control unit 12 further includes: a processing unit 120 , an identification module 121 and a cache unit 122 . Among them, the identification module 121 is used to identify the character string information to identify whether the character string information contains information that conforms to the time format, and the time format can be, for example, any or a combination of year, month, day, and time The format, and the arrangement or writing mode of the date/time (such as 2007-12-12, etc.) can be easily replaced or changed by those of ordinary skill in the art, and is not intended to limit the utility model. Therefore, if the string information contains information that conforms to the time format, it means that the string information input by the user is used as a calendar information prompt, so the identification module 121 will use the string information according to the The date and time information in the time format are stored in the calendar module 142; on the contrary, if the string information does not include information conforming to the time format, it means that the string information input by the user is only used as a direct message Therefore, the identification module 121 will directly output the character string information to the processing unit 120 .

Incidentally, if the string information contains information conforming to the time format, it means that the string information input by the user is used as a calendar information reminder, but if the recognition module 121 recognizes the time When the format information is the current time, the character string information is also directly output to the processing unit 120 .

The processing unit 120 is mainly used to receive the character string information output by the identification module 121, and after obtaining the image data from the memory unit 15 and processing the image data, it outputs a data control signal to control the image display unit 13 for correlation. display. The cache unit 122 is used to temporarily store the character string information input by the handwriting input module 11, or the character string information output by the calendar module 142 when the date and time arrive, so that it can be provided to the recognition module 121 for recognition. And at this time, if the recognition module 121 recognizes that the information in the time format is the current time, it will directly output the string information to the processing unit 120 .

It is worth mentioning that, in this embodiment, the display format set by the processing unit 120 in the control unit 12 for the character string information may be different due to actual application design, which can roughly be, for example, the following display formats :

The first display format is a display format in which the processing unit 120 simply switches font colors randomly to set as the display format of the character string information. However, the embodiment of this display format does not limit the relative position of the string information displayed on the image data. In actual design, it can be based on random coordinates, fixed coordinates, or the position represented by the position parameter in the string information. The coordinates are used as the display position of the string information for display.

The second display format is also the display format of the character string information that the processing unit 120 will directly set as the display format of the character string information by adding an outer frame line when displaying the character string information. The embodiment of this display format also does not limit the relative position of the character string information when the image data is displayed, and can also be based on random coordinates, fixed coordinates, or position coordinates represented by the position parameters in the character string information, as the display position of the string information for display. In addition, a display format can also be designed in conjunction with the above-mentioned first display format for simultaneous processing, that is, the font color will be switched randomly at the same time, and an outer frame line will be added around the character string information.

As for the third display format, the processing unit 120 will first use the position coordinates represented by the position parameters of the received character string information as the relative display position of the character string information when the image data is displayed, that is, the actual The character string information will be displayed according to the position of the user's handwriting input. Most importantly, the processing unit 120 will further perform analysis processing on the image data to analyze the color of the image data relative to the position coordinates, and then set the font color of the character string information as the image data at the position coordinates contrasting color of the color.

In this way, by changing the display format of the character string information, the information that the user wants to remark or leave a message can avoid overlapping with the background color formed by the image data.

Of course, the aforementioned three display formats are not intended to limit the present invention, and any change or combination purely on the display format can be covered by the claims of the present invention.

In addition, besides one of the display formats that can be preset when the processing unit 120 leaves the factory, multiple display formats can also be designed in the processing unit 120 at the same time. External operations control the settings of the processing unit 120 to achieve the effect of manually selecting different display formats.

Please refer to FIG. 2 again, which is a schematic diagram of the first use state of the digital photo frame with information display function of the present invention. As shown in the figure, this embodiment is, for example, exemplified by taking the aforementioned first display format, and the digital photo frame 1 of this embodiment is used as a message board. Wherein, after the user enters the handwritten input characters (including words and symbols) of "Come on!" by handwriting, it will actually correspond to character string information for subsequent processing. In this embodiment, for example, a fixed display position is used as the display of the character string information. Therefore, when the digital photo frame 1 displays the stored image data through the image display unit 13, it can simultaneously display the character string information that the user wants to leave a message, and the font color of the character string information in FIG. 2 is switched randomly. way to display.

Please refer to FIG. 3 again, which is a schematic diagram of a second usage state of the digital photo frame with information display function of the present invention. As shown in the figure, this embodiment is, for example, exemplified by taking the aforementioned second display format, and the digital photo frame 1 of this embodiment is used to realize the calendar function. That is to say, when the user enters the handwritten input characters of "2007-12-12 09:00 conference room meeting" by handwriting, it will actually correspond to character string information, and the character is recognized by the recognition module 121 in the digital photo frame 1 When the string information contains information conforming to the time format, and the time information referred to by the time format is not the current time, the string information will be stored in the calendar module 142 .

Therefore, when the date/time indicated by the information in the time format is reached through the timing of the time module 141, it will be output as prompt information. That is, the relevant prompt information as shown in FIG. 3 . Since this embodiment adopts the design of the second display format above, an outer frame line is added around the character string information for display.

To sum up, this utility model integrates handwriting input and handwriting recognition functions on the hardware structure of the digital photo frame, so that the digital photo frame can not only display photo images, but also display and prompt handwritten memo information The function, in order to facilitate the user to carry out information memorandum upload and leave a message and other purposes. In addition, the utility model can further analyze and process the image data to be displayed, so as to further change the font color when the string information is displayed, so that the information to be forgotten or leave a message can avoid the background color formed by the image data. Duplicate situations arise.
