Generally, a keyboard and a mouse are used as the main input means of a computer, and a keyboard is used to input characters, and a mouse is used to use functions provided by a mouse such as space movement or copy printing.

A computer mouse is a computer peripheral device that indicates a location by using a cursor displayed on a display device in a computer system. The computer mouse includes a ball and a function setting button that can extract coordinates.

However, in recent years, due to the widespread use of Windows, all programs support the GUI (Graphic User Interface) function, and accordingly, the use of the mouse is gradually increasing. In particular, when using the Internet, most operations are performed by a mouse when the user surfs the web.

As such, the portion of the mouse as an input tool on a computer is increasing, and a user selects a location with a mouse and clicks using a click button as necessary to surf the web or activate a specific function in an application.                         

Click is an input method that is frequently used to occupy most of the input function of a mouse. In particular, in applications such as web environments, surveys, and games, a lot of click signals are required, and users frequently use click buttons.

In the case of the conventional mouse input, the click function is implemented through the button input, and thus the dependency on the left mouse button corresponding to the click function is very high.

Therefore, in the current technical field, there is an urgent need to further enhance the function of the mouse as an input tool by analyzing a mouse input signal and converting a specific type of mouse signal into a click signal so that the user can conveniently input the click signal. Required.

The present invention has been proposed to meet the above demands, and by analyzing input signals of a mouse, which is frequently used as an input device in a computer, a user can conveniently insert a click signal at a necessary position without pressing a click button. It is an object of the present invention to provide an automatic click signal input device using a mouse movement for using a web browser or an application, and a method thereof, and a computer-readable recording medium storing a program for realizing the method.

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a mouse click signal input apparatus comprising: signal detecting means for detecting a predetermined signal corresponding to a click by tracking a movement of a mouse indicator (pointer); Positioning means for extracting a position of a point where the predetermined signal detected by the signal detecting means is generated and determining a position requiring a click signal in a variably adjustable peripheral effective space; And click signal generating means for generating a click signal of the mouse at the position determined by the positioning means.

The present invention provides a method for inputting a click signal of a mouse, comprising: a first step of tracking a movement of a mouse indicator (pointer) to detect a predetermined signal corresponding to a click; A second step of extracting a position of a point at which the predetermined signal is generated and determining a position requiring a click signal in a variably adjustable peripheral effective space; And a third step of generating a click signal of the mouse at the position.

On the other hand, the present invention is to provide a click signal input of the mouse, the automatic input signal input device equipped with a processor, the first function for tracking the movement of the mouse indicator (pointer), to detect a predetermined signal corresponding to the click; A second function of extracting a position of a point where the predetermined signal is generated and determining a position requiring a click signal in a variably adjustable peripheral effective space; And a computer readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for realizing a third function of generating a click signal of the mouse at the position.

The present invention analyzes the movement of the mouse (input signal) and automatically generates a click signal at a necessary position even when the click button is not pressed, so that the user can conveniently use a web environment or other applications.

To this end, when the specific input pattern corresponding to the click is extracted by recognizing the input characteristic of the user, the present invention checks a position requiring a click near a predetermined range of the corresponding position, and generates a click signal at the corresponding position.

According to the present invention, since the click signal can be easily and quickly generated using the movement of the mouse, an efficient mouse input can be expected and contribute to the productivity improvement using the application.

The above objects, features and advantages will become more apparent from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a configuration of an embodiment of an automatic click signal input apparatus using a mouse movement according to the present invention.

That is, as shown in Figure 1, the automatic click signal input device using the movement of the mouse according to the present invention, by tracking the movement of the mouse indicator (pointer), a predetermined signal (click type input signal corresponding to the click) Position detection for extracting the position of the point where the predetermined signal detected by the signal detection unit 10 is generated and determining the position requiring the click signal in the surrounding effective space. And a click signal input unit 30 for generating a click signal of the mouse at the position determined by the position recognition unit 30.

Here, the predetermined signal (click type input signal) is determined by the xy rotation type of the mouse. As shown in FIG. 2, the y value is negative and then positive (+) as shown in FIG. 2. The point that changes to is the click reference point.

The automatic click signal input apparatus using the movement of the mouse according to the present invention recognizes a user's input characteristics, and when a specific input pattern corresponding to the click is extracted, checks a position requiring a click near a predetermined range of the corresponding position, By generating a click signal at the corresponding position, the click signal is automatically generated even if the user does not actually click.

The signal of the mouse is extracted by the mouse drive and transmitted to the operating system. In the present invention, the signal detection unit 10 continuously searches for a pattern signal having a predefined click type by using the mouse signal transmitted to the operating system as an input. . In this case, the click shape is defined as the basic click motion for generating the click signal as shown in FIG. Therefore, when the mouse continuously moves and a signal as shown in FIG. 2 is generated, the signal detector 10 transfers control to the position recognizer 20 for extracting the point coordinates. Then, the position recognizing unit 20 extracts the coordinates of the vertices as shown in FIG. 3 of the portion where the signal in the form of a click is generated, and selects the coordinates requiring the click signal in a predetermined effective space. At this time, if the click function is required in several coordinates, the coordinates closest to the vertex coordinates are selected. Finally, the click signal input unit 30 generates a click signal at the coordinates obtained by the position recognition unit 20 and transmits the click signal to the operating system through the mouse drive.

Then, the components of the automatic click signal input apparatus using the movement of the mouse according to the present invention will be described in detail.

The signal detector 10 continuously tracks a user's mouse signal and detects a specific signal (click type input signal) corresponding to a click among the user's mouse signals (see FIG. 2). That is, the signal detector 20 continuously searches the user's mouse input signal and finds an input signal having a predefined click type. The input signal of the click type is preferably determined by the x-y rotational shape of the mouse as described above, and the point at which the y value goes negative and then becomes positive (+) becomes a click reference point. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the point where the y value goes to plus (+) and then minus (-) may be used as a click reference point, and the x value goes to minus (-) and then positive (+). The reference point may be used as a click reference point, or the point at which the x value changes to a negative value and then becomes a negative point may be used as the click reference point.

The position recognition unit 20 finds a vertex to which the user wants to input a click in the movement of the mouse and finds whether a click is required in the effective space. A window currently activated for a range of the effective area in the coordinates of the click reference point Determines the position where the click signal is needed. That is, the position recognizing unit 20 extracts the position coordinates of the point where the click type input signal detected by the signal detecting unit 10 is generated, and checks whether there are coordinates requiring a click in a certain effective space around the position. Check it. At this time, if the click function is required in several coordinates, the coordinates closest to the vertex coordinates are selected.

The click signal input unit 30 generates a mouse click signal at a corresponding position determined by the position recognition unit 20, automatically generates a click signal even when the user does not actually click, and transmits the click signal to the operating system through the mouse drive. .

4 is a flowchart illustrating a method of automatically inputting a click signal using a movement of a mouse according to the present invention.

First, an input signal is continuously detected until a mouse input corresponding to a click is found (401), and when a click movement (click type input signal) as shown in FIG. 2 is extracted (402), it corresponds to a vertex of the click. The x and y coordinates are searched for (403) and a check is made in the effective space (404).

As a result of the check, if the click is not necessary, the input signal is detected again (402).

As a result of the check, if a coordinate requiring a click is found, a click signal is generated with respect to the coordinate and transmitted to the operating system (405).

As described above, the present invention can generate a click signal automatically using an input signal of a mouse even if the user does not actually click, and can conveniently implement the input in a web environment or an application. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, when a user inputs a click movement when a user needs a click in a web browser or other application, the click is automatically input. In particular, an application that needs to generate a large number of clicks, such as online surveys or test result grading, can be used very conveniently because the user can input a click signal only by moving the mouse even if the user does not click on a specific position. In addition, by implementing the automatic click function of the present invention as an auxiliary function instead of the main function of the mouse click, it is possible to further enhance the function of the mouse as an input tool by allowing the user to select the automatic click function when the right mouse button is clicked when necessary. have.

The method of the present invention as described above may be implemented as a program and stored in a computer-readable recording medium (CD-ROM, RAM, ROM, floppy disk, hard disk, magneto-optical disk, etc.).

The present invention described above is not limited to the above-described embodiments and the accompanying drawings, and various substitutions, modifications, and changes are possible in the art without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention. It will be clear to those of ordinary knowledge.

The present invention as described above, by replacing the function of the input button by using the movement of the mouse used as an input tool of the personal computer, the user can use the mouse input more quickly and conveniently, especially in a web browser or online survey , Click results in applications such as scoring test results.
