By the present invention, the user can import next one letter in the previous position that is transfused to letter very apace, and does not need the position of mobile felt pen significantly, thereby can improve the efficient of input and reduce the possibility that mistake is imported.
Description of drawings
Fig. 1 is the synoptic diagram of known touch-screen;
Fig. 2 is the synoptic diagram of the preferred embodiment of portable electric device of the present invention;
Fig. 3 to Figure 26 is to use the synoptic diagram of the touch-screen of known input method and input method of the present invention input english sentence.
Embodiment
See also Fig. 2, it is for the synoptic diagram of handheld apparatus of the present invention.Fig. 2 has represented handheld apparatus 2000 of the present invention, personal digital assistant (Personal Assistant Device for example, PDA) or mobile phone, comprise a touch-screen 200, a dummy keyboard 201, a plurality of virtual key 2011 and the input control device 300 that is arranged at handheld apparatus 2000 inside.Wherein input control device 300 is in order to carry out input method of the present invention.
Be input as example with English, add up, can learn the letter that most possibly occurs after each letter at one group of word of using always, and the highest TOP V of taking-up probability.For example, following table is listed the partial results at the English dictionary statistics of 26000 speech.
| The position | Letter | Most possible following five letters that occur |
| 1 | p | r、a、e、o、 |
| 1? | i? | n、m、r、s、d |
| 1 | y | o、a、e、u、a |
| 1 | o | r、b、p、c、s |
| 2 | e | r、n、l、a、s |
| 2 | l | a、o、e、u、i |
| 2 | r | a、o、e、i、u |
| 2 | S | t、s、y、c、p |
| 3 | a | n、r、t、d、c |
| 3 | d | i、e、d、r、 |
| 3? | i | n、t、l、s、m |
| 4 | m | i、a、e、o、p |
| 4 | r | e、i、o、a、t |
| 5 | a | n、r、t、l、c |
| 5 | S | t、i、e、o、h |
| 6 | X | i、y、t、e |
As can be seen from the above table, in quilt 26000 English words of adding up, the most normal letter that appears at the 1st character position of English word has p, i, y, o, and the letter that appears at the 2nd character position has e, l, r, s, and the rest may be inferred.Wherein most possible 5 letters that occur are r after alphabetical p,, a, e, o, i, 5 letters of most possible appearance are n, m, r, s, d alphabetical i after, the rest may be inferred.This statistical form is recorded in the handheld apparatus.
The situation of importing " Primax is 21 years old. " respectively with known touch-screen input method and input method of the present invention below will be described.
See also Fig. 3 to Figure 26, each figure comprises A and B two figure, wherein schemes the touch-screen that A represents to use known input method, and figure B represents to use the touch-screen of input method of the present invention.
See also Fig. 3 A, the letter that the letter representation that indicates with circle is transfused to, in the input data of " Primax is 21years old ", first letter that is transfused to is p.See also Fig. 3 B, first letter that is transfused to also is p.
See also Fig. 4 A, the letter of second input is r.See also Fig. 4 B, in input method of the present invention, after first alphabetical P was transfused to, input control device 300 showed that on the position of alphabetical p one may show 5 letters after most possibly appearing at p by key window 2010 and according to the information of statistical form.May comprise 9 virtual keys by key window 2010, these 9 virtual keys are included in 5 alphabetical r, a, e, o, the i of alphabetical p most probable appearance afterwards, punctuation mark ", ", ". " and space bar.
In the known method of Fig. 4 A, to button r, the user must move to felt pen from the position of the right p button the position of the r button on the close left side significantly from button p.And in the inventive method of Fig. 4 B, the user is after input p, going out in the position display of button p may be by key window 2010, and the next alphabetical r that is transfused to just appear at may be by key window 2010, so the user does not need significantly the position of mobile felt pen can import next alphabetical r.The situation of Fig. 5 to Fig. 7 is identical with Fig. 4.
See also Fig. 8, the letter that Fig. 8 will import is x, and the letter that was transfused to before x is a.In Fig. 8 A, the user directly moves to button x with felt pen from button a.In Fig. 8 B, after the previous alphabetical a of x was transfused to, having occurred may be by key window 8010.May comprise 5 alphabetical n, r, t, d, the c that most probable occurs after alphabetical a by key window 8010, not comprise the alphabetical x that the user will import.When the user found not comprise want to import alphabetical by key window, it can directly move to felt pen the position of alphabetical x and press, to finish the input of alphabetical x.Owing to may only comprise 9 letters by key window, thus the user whether can find out soon may be by there being the next one to want the letter of importing in the key window.May cancel when not touched in the t between at a time by arbitrary button of key window may be by the demonstration of key window when input control device 300 detects.This time t can change with user's input habit.For example, handheld apparatus can provide a testing mechanism, allows the user test out to be fit to the length of time t of input habit of controlling oneself.
See also Fig. 9 B, after the user pressed x, input control device 300 promptly shows may be by key window 9010.May comprise that most probable appears at x 4 alphabetical i, y, t, e and space bars afterwards by key window 9010.Because alphabetical x is last letter of first English word Primax, next should import a space bar so that carry out the input of the 2nd English word, so the user can directly click may be by the space bar in the key window 9010.
See also Figure 10 B.The 2nd word that will be transfused to is " is ", because the statistics of the letter that occurs about most probable after the space bar not, and therefore demonstration that can possible button window when space bar is transfused to after.The location point word selection mother " i " that this moment, the user directly arrived alphabetical i.
The input explanation of Figure 11 to 12 as hereinbefore.
See also Figure 13, what will import in Figure 13 is numeral 2.The user directly clicks numeral 2 in Figure 13 B.See also Figure 14 B, after numeral 2 is selected, input control device 300 is same show one may be by key window 14010.Since the previous input of user to as if numeral, so the object that next the systemic presupposition user may need to import also is numeral, therefore may be actually a numeric keypad by key window 14010, comprises virtual key and the space bar of digital 0-9.Therefore the user is directly pressing key window 14010 input digits 1.
See also Figure 15 B, after numeral " 21 " was transfused to, what then need input was space bar, so that carry out the input of next English word.Owing to may comprise space bar by key window 14010, so the user directly may import space bars by key window 14010.
Figure 16 to the situation of Figure 26 as hereinbefore.
What specify is possible be not limited in above embodiment by the quantity and the kind (for example letter, punctuation mark, function button or the like) of the virtual key that key window comprised, but can change according to most of users' input habit.
Can understand by above description, of the present invention may by key window allow the user can be very apace at the previous next letter of position input that is transfused to letter, and do not need the position of mobile felt pen significantly, thereby can improve the efficient of input and reduce the wrong possibility of importing.
Above embodiment only is used to illustrate the present invention, and other modification of being made under the situation that does not break away from spirit of the present invention all should be considered as falling within the scope of the present invention.
