Embodiment
Describe in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings according to each embodiment of the present invention.Here, it should be noted that in the accompanying drawings, identical Reference numeral is given and substantially had ingredient identical or similar structures and function, and will omit being repeated in this description about them.
Below with reference to Fig. 1, describe according to the messaging device of the embodiment of the present invention.Here, according to messaging device of the present invention, can comprise the terminal device such as smart mobile phone, panel computer.
As shown in Figure 1, according to the messaging device 1 of the embodiment of the present invention, can comprise display unit 10, touch sensing unit 11, processing unit 12.
Display unit 10 can be realized by liquid crystal or OLED display screen arbitrarily, and display unit 10 can carry out display frame on its viewing area.
Touch sensing unit 11 can be realized by capacitive touch panels arbitrarily.The touch sensitive area in this touch sensing unit 11 with preset area, and can to contactant (as, finger, felt pen) position (touch location) in touch sensitive area produces response.According to embodiments of the invention, when user uses messaging device 1 input character, touch sensing unit 11 can comprise character input area (being called for short first area below), and touch sensing unit 11 can produce response by the touch location in this first area to contactant.Here, first area comprises a plurality of character set region, and these a plurality of character set regions are corresponding from different character set respectively.Fig. 2 A has shown the example of first area.Yet the invention is not restricted to this, first area can be not limited to the situation shown in Fig. 2 A.For example, in first area, can arrange a plurality of character set region in the mode of multiple lines and multiple rows, and can arrange character set in the mode of multiple lines and multiple rows in each character set region.According to embodiments of the invention, touch sensing unit 11 can overlap at least partly with display unit 10 (as, first area overlaps with the viewing area of display unit).For example, in touch sensing unit 11 can with display unit 10 overlap completely (overlapping).In this case, when user uses touch sensing unit 11 input character, as long as the first area of touch sensing unit 11 and the viewing area of display unit overlap, display unit 12 can show a plurality of characters in a plurality of character set region and a plurality of character set region on the viewing area corresponding with this first area.
Processing unit 12 can be by processor or microprocessor are realized arbitrarily.Processing unit 12 can be carried out predetermined processing based on preset program.According to embodiments of the invention, processing unit 12 can should be used for controlling display unit 10 and touch sensing unit 11 according to default character input.In the situation that user has activated character input application (as, use note, microblogging etc. are sent out message), the condition of processing unit 12 based on default starts character input mode.Under character input mode, first processing unit 12 can show a plurality of characters in a plurality of character set region and a plurality of character set region on viewing area corresponding to the first area with touch sensing unit 11.Then, when contactant starts to contact with touch sensing unit 11, processing unit 12 is determined the position of contactant in first area by touch sensing unit 11, and determines the character set region (be below called first character set region) corresponding with this position (touch location).For example, can be in messaging device 1 corresponding relation in the position in pre-stored first area and corresponding character set region, and processing unit 12 can be determined the first character set region corresponding with the touch location of contactant according to this corresponding relation.Then processing unit 12 is selected the first corresponding character set based on determined the first character set region, and by display unit 10, on the second area of viewing area, shows the character set corresponding with the first character set region (below be called the first character set).Here, in order to make demonstration clearer, region and this second area corresponding with first area on display unit 10 are not overlapping.For example, as shown in Figure 2 A, first area and second area are separated from each other.In addition, during contactant and touch sensing unit 11 keep in touch, processing unit 12 is the definite character to be entered from the first character set of the slip on touch sensing unit based on contactant, and on second area, points out character to be entered by display unit 10.
Particularly, for example, during contactant and touch sensing unit 11 keep in touch, on the second area of display unit 10, show first character set corresponding with the first character set region.Now, if processing unit 12 detects contactant, in the first character set region, slide, processing unit 12 based on contactant the slide on the first character set region determine character to be entered.For example, can determine character to be entered by the sliding position on the first character set region based on contactant.Here, can be in messaging device 1 corresponding relation of the position in pre-stored the first character set region and each character in corresponding the first character set, and processing unit 12 can be determined the character in the first character set corresponding with the touch location of contactant according to this corresponding relation.Then processing unit 12 is pointed out determined character to be entered by display unit 10 on second area.For example, as shown in Figure 2 A, if touched character set region (abcdefg) at contactant, on the second area of display unit 10, show the character set corresponding with symbol collection region (abcdefg).Now, during contactant and touch sensing unit 11 keep in touch, if processing unit 12 detects contactant and slides in this character set region, processing unit 12 based on contactant the sliding position on character set region determine character to be entered (as, b).Then processing unit 12 is pointed out determined character to be entered by display unit 10 on second area.Here, prompting mode is not limited to the example of Fig. 2 A, for example, can also by highlighted, make character to be entered become mode large or distortion to point out.
In addition, according to another embodiment of the invention, can also direction and amplitude based on slide determine character to be entered.For example, if contactant is sliding left in character set region (abcdefg), processing unit 12 can determine that character to be entered is from current character several characters that slide left based on slip amplitude, or when contactant is sliding to the right in character set region (abcdefg), processing unit 12 can determine that character to be entered is from current character several characters that slide to the right based on slip amplitude.
In addition, the example of first area and second area is not limited to the situation of Fig. 2 A.For example, as shown in Figure 2 B, in second area, can show the concentrated content of specific character with the form of multiple lines and multiple rows.Here, due to the mode of determining character to be entered based on slide and pointing out this character to be entered similar to the previous description, repeat no more here.In addition, can also in first area, with the form of multiple lines and multiple rows, arrange a plurality of character set region, and with the form of multiple lines and multiple rows, arrange a plurality of characters in each character set region.In this case, character set region that can the location positioning in first area is corresponding based on contactant, then based on contactant, the slide in this character set (as, position or upper, under, a left side, the direction such as right) is determined character to be entered.
Then, whether the slide of processing unit 12 detection contactants on the first character set region stops.If processing unit 12 determine time that the slide of contactant on the first character set region stops be less than or equal to first threshold (as, 1-3 second), processing unit 12 continues the slide in the first character set region based on contactant and determines character to be entered.In addition, if the time that the slide of the definite contactant of processing unit 12 on the first character set region stops surpasses first threshold, character to be entered (slide stops front definite character to be entered) is exported in the position of processing unit 12 based on contactant.Then, processing unit 12 can continue to detect the slide of contactant on the first character set region, and continues to determine next character to be entered.
In addition, according to another embodiment of the invention, if processing unit 12 is determined contactant and make deliberate action on the first character set region, processing unit 12 is exported the characters to be entered that the slide before making deliberate action is determined based on contactant, and deliberate action selects the slide of character different from user here.For example, this deliberate action can be the action that contactant leaves touch sensing unit 12.In this case, the character to be entered of the output definite character to be entered of the slide of that time that can be contactant before leaving touch sensing unit 12.In addition, in first area, be shown in Fig. 2 A in the situation that, owing to determining character to be entered by horizontally slipping, therefore default action can also be to slide up and down.In this case, the character to be entered of output can be the definite character to be entered of slide that contactant is made that time before deliberate action.
In addition, if when showing first character set corresponding with the first character set region on second area, processing unit 12 detects contactant outside sliding into the first character set region, and the sliding position of processing unit 12 based on contactant determined the second character set region.Here, similar to the previous description, if processing unit 12 detects contactant outside sliding into the first character set region, the position in the sliding position of processing unit 12 based on contactant and pre-stored first area is determined except extra-regional another character set region of the first character set (being called the second character set region below) with the corresponding relation in corresponding character set region, and determines the character set (be below called second character set) corresponding with this second character set region.In this case, processing unit 12 shows second character set corresponding with the second character set region by display unit 10 on second area.By the way, In the view of user, if contactant moves to the another location first area from the first character set region, processing unit 12 is determined the second character set region corresponding with this another location, and shows second character set corresponding with this second character set region on display unit 10.Now, if contactant slides in the second character set region, processing unit 12 can be determined the character to be entered in the second character set by the slide based on contactant.
By the way, can determine character set region by touch and the slide of contactant, and then the slide in character set region is determined character to be entered according to contactant.In this case, even if user has produced false touch, also can proofread and correct false touch by slide.In addition, because contactant during slide does not leave touch sensing unit 11, therefore having saved contactant clicks the required time, thereby can realize quick input.
The the first character set region of the location positioning in first area according to contactant has been described in the above, slide based on user in the first character set region corresponding character in pointing out the first character set, and outside contactant slides into the first character set region, the second character set region of the location positioning in first area point out in the second character set the situation of corresponding character based on slide based on contactant again.Yet, the invention is not restricted to this, according to another embodiment of the invention, when contactant starts to contact with touch sensing unit 11, processing unit 12 is determined the position of contactant in first area by touch sensing unit 11, and determines the first character set region corresponding with this position.Then processing unit 12 is selected the first corresponding character set based on determined the first character set region, and by display unit 10, on the second area of viewing area, shows the character set corresponding with the first character set region (below be called the first character set).In this case, during contactant and touch sensing unit 11 keep in touch, if when showing first character set corresponding with the first character set region on second area, processing unit 12 detects contactant and slides in first area, processing unit 12 based on contactant the slide on first area determine character to be entered.In addition, processing unit 12 is pointed out character to be entered by display unit 10 on second area.
For example, can determine character to be entered by the sliding position on first area based on contactant.In this case, after processing unit 12 has been determined the first character set region and the first character set, during contactant and touch sensing unit 11 keep in touch, processing unit 12 can show separately on first area that by display unit 10 it is selecting the character in the first character set with prompting user for each character in the first character set.Here, can be in messaging device 1 corresponding relation of the position in pre-stored first area and each character in corresponding the first character set, and processing unit 12 can be determined the character in the first character set corresponding with the touch location in first area of contactant according to this corresponding relation.Then processing unit 12 is pointed out determined character to be entered by display unit 10 on second area.In addition, can also direction and amplitude based on slide determine character to be entered.For example, if contactant is sliding left in first area, processing unit 12 can determine that character to be entered is from current character several characters that slide left based on slip amplitude, or when contactant is sliding to the right in first area, processing unit 12 can determine that character to be entered is from current character several characters that slide to the right based on slip amplitude.
In addition, in the situation that arrange a plurality of characters in the first character set with the form of multiple lines and multiple rows in first area, can be based on contactant character corresponding to the location positioning in first area, then based on contactant the slide in first area (as, position or on, under, a left side, the direction such as right) determine character to be entered.
Then, whether the slide of processing unit 12 detection contactants on first area stops.If processing unit 12 determines time that the slide of contactant on first area stops and be less than or equal to first threshold (as, 1-3 second), processing unit 12 continues the slide in first area based on contactant and determines character to be entered.In addition, if processing unit 12 is determined the time that the slide of contactant on first area stops, surpassing first threshold, character to be entered (slide stops front definite character to be entered) is exported in the position of processing unit 12 based on contactant.Then, processing unit 12 can continue to detect the slide of contactant on first area, and continues to determine next character to be entered.In addition, according to another embodiment of the invention, if processing unit 12 is determined contactant and make deliberate action on first area, the character to be entered that slide make deliberate action before of processing unit 12 outputs based on contactant determined, deliberate action selects the slide of character different from user here.For example, this deliberate action can be the action that contactant leaves touch sensing unit 12.In this case, the character to be entered of the output definite character to be entered of the slide of that time that can be contactant before leaving touch sensing unit 12.Here, if user wishes to select the character in other character set, can use contactant again to contact other character set region on first area.In this case, at processing unit 12, can determine this character set region and corresponding character set, and at second area, show this character set by display unit 10.Now, user can use contactant in the enterprising line slip in first area to select the character to be entered in this character set.
By above-mentioned configuration, after having determined the first character set region by the touch of contactant, the slide according to contactant in first area is determined the character to be entered in the first character set.According to the present embodiment, because first area scope is larger, so contactant can slide in the larger context.In this case, contactant slides in the larger context and can further avoid the appearance of erroneous input.
The embodiment that touch sensing unit 11 overlaps at least partly with display unit 10 has been described in the above.Yet, the invention is not restricted to this, touch sensing unit 11 can be separated from each other with display unit 10.For example, messaging device 1 can be the mobile phone with keyboard area, and the first area of touch sensing unit 11 can overlap with the keyboard area of messaging device 1.In this case, a plurality of characters in a plurality of character set region and these character set regions can be printed on the first area of touch sensing unit 11.For example, can a plurality of character set region be set on the first area of touch sensing unit 11 in the mode of key area, and each character set region (key area) comprises a plurality of characters.
Here, due to by contactant the touch on first area and slide to select character set or the mode of character similar to the previous description, therefore only it is simply described here.For example, according to one embodiment of present invention, can determine the first character set region by the touch of contactant and first area, and then the slide in the first character set region is determined and is pointed out character to be entered according to contactant, and the operation based on default (as, press, contactant leaves touch sensing unit etc.) export this character to be entered.In addition, if contactant detected outside sliding into the first character set region, the sliding position based on contactant is determined the second character set region, and then the slide in the second character set region is determined and is pointed out character to be entered according to contactant, and the operation based on default (as, press, contactant leaves touch sensing unit etc.) export this character to be entered.In addition, according to another embodiment of the invention, can determine the first character set region by the touch of contactant and first area, and then the slide in first area is determined and is pointed out character to be entered according to contactant, and the operation based on default (as, press, contactant leaves touch sensing unit etc.) export this character to be entered.Here, if user wishes to select the character in other character set, this user can use contactant again to contact other character set region on first area.Now, can determine this character set region and corresponding character set, and at second area, show this character set by display unit 10, and can be by contactant in the enterprising line slip in first area to select the character to be entered in this character set.In this case, operation that can be based on default (as, press, contactant leaves touch sensing unit etc.) export this character to be entered.
Below, with reference to Fig. 3, describe according to the character display input method of the embodiment of the present invention.Here, the method for Fig. 3 can be applied on the messaging device shown in Fig. 1.This messaging device has display unit and has first area and the touch sensing unit of the generation of the position in the first area response to contactant.
As shown in Figure 3, at step S301, the condition based on default starts character input mode.
Particularly, as the description for Fig. 1, in the situation that user has activated character input application (as, use note, microblogging etc. are sent out message), the condition of the processing unit 12 of messaging device 1 based on default starts character input mode.Now, after starting character input mode, first processing unit 12 can be controlled display unit 10 and on viewing area corresponding to the first area with touch sensing unit 11, show a plurality of characters in a plurality of character set region and a plurality of character set region.Here, under character input mode, first area can be character input area, and touch sensing unit 11 can produce response by the touch location in this first area to contactant.Under character input mode, first area can comprise a plurality of character set region, and these a plurality of character set regions are corresponding from different character set respectively.According to embodiments of the invention, touch sensing unit 11 can overlap at least partly with display unit 10.For example, first area overlaps with the viewing area of display unit.In this case, as long as the first area of touch sensing unit 11 and the viewing area of display unit overlap, display unit 12 just can, under character input mode, show a plurality of characters in a plurality of character set region and a plurality of character set region on the viewing area corresponding with this first area.
At step S302, under character input mode, when described contactant starts to contact with described touch sensing unit, by described touch sensing unit, determine the position of described contactant in described first area, and determine the first character set region corresponding with described position.
Particularly, under character input mode, when contactant starts to contact with touch sensing unit 11, processing unit 12 is determined the position of contactant in first area by touch sensing unit 11, and determines the character set region (first character set region) corresponding with this position.For example, can be in messaging device 1 corresponding relation in the position in pre-stored first area and corresponding character set region, and processing unit 12 can be determined the first character set region corresponding with the touch location of contactant according to this corresponding relation.
At step S303, based on determined the first character set region, select the first corresponding character set, and by described display unit, on the second area of described display unit, show first character set corresponding with described the first character set region.Here, on described display unit, region and the described second area corresponding with described first area is not overlapping.
Particularly, processing unit 12 is selected the first corresponding character set based on determined the first character set region, and on the second area of viewing area, shows the character set corresponding with the first character set region (the first character set) by display unit 10.Here, in order to make demonstration clearer, region and this second area corresponding with first area on display unit 10 are not overlapping.For example, as shown in Figure 2 A, first area and second area are separated from each other.
At step S304, during contactant and described touch sensing unit keep in touch, character to be entered is determined in slip based on contactant on touch sensing unit from the first character set, and by display unit at the above character to be entered of described second area.
Particularly, during contactant and touch sensing unit 11 keep in touch, processing unit 12 is the definite character to be entered from the first character set of the slip on touch sensing unit based on contactant, and on second area, points out character to be entered by display unit 10.
For example, step S304 may further include: if when showing first character set corresponding with the first character set region on second area, contactant detected slides in the first character set region, based on contactant, the slide on the first character set region is determined character to be entered, and on second area, points out character to be entered by display unit.
Particularly, according to one embodiment of present invention, during contactant and touch sensing unit 11 keep in touch, on the second area of display unit 10, show first character set corresponding with the first character set region.Now, if processing unit 12 detects contactant, in the first character set region, slide, processing unit 12 based on contactant the slide on the first character set region determine character to be entered.For example, can determine character to be entered by the sliding position on the first character set region based on contactant.Then processing unit 12 is pointed out determined character to be entered by display unit 10 on second area.For example, as shown in Figure 2 A, if touched character set region (abcdefg) at contactant, on the second area of display unit 10, show the character set corresponding with symbol collection region (abcdefg).Now, during contactant and touch sensing unit 11 keep in touch, if processing unit 12 detects contactant and slides in this character set region, processing unit 12 based on contactant the sliding position on character set region determine character to be entered (as, b).Then processing unit 12 is pointed out determined character to be entered by display unit 10 on second area.Here, prompting mode is not limited to the example of Fig. 2 A, for example, can also by highlighted, make character to be entered become mode large or distortion to point out.In addition, according to another embodiment of the invention, can also direction and amplitude based on slide determine character to be entered.For example, if contactant is sliding left in character set region (abcdefg), processing unit 12 can determine that character to be entered is from current character several characters that slide left based on slip amplitude, or when contactant is sliding to the right in character set region (abcdefg), processing unit 12 can determine that character to be entered is from current character several characters that slide to the right based on slip amplitude.In addition, the example of first area and second area is not limited to the situation of Fig. 2 A.For example, as shown in Figure 2 B, in second area, can show the concentrated content of specific character with the form of multiple lines and multiple rows.Here, due to the mode of determining character to be entered based on slide and pointing out this character to be entered similar to the previous description, repeat no more here.In addition, can also in first area, with the form of multiple lines and multiple rows, arrange a plurality of character set region, and with the form of multiple lines and multiple rows, arrange a plurality of characters in each character set region.In this case, character set region that can the location positioning in first area is corresponding based on contactant, then based on contactant, the slide in this character set (as, position or upper, under, a left side, the direction such as right) is determined character to be entered.
In the situation that having determined character to be entered, user can export determined character to be entered according to predetermined action.In this case, the step of Fig. 3 can also comprise: if the time that the slide of definite contactant on the first character set region stops surpasses first threshold, character to be entered is exported in the position based on contactant.
Particularly, whether the slide of processing unit 12 detection contactants on the first character set region stops.If processing unit 12 determine time that the slide of contactant on the first character set region stops be less than or equal to first threshold (as, 1-3 second), processing unit 12 continues the slide in the first character set region based on contactant and determines character to be entered.In addition, if the time that the slide of the definite contactant of processing unit 12 on the first character set region stops surpasses first threshold, character to be entered (slide stops front definite character to be entered) is exported in the position of processing unit 12 based on contactant.Then, processing unit 12 can continue to detect the slide of contactant on the first character set region, and continues to determine next character to be entered.
In addition, the step of Fig. 3 can also comprise: if definite contactant is made deliberate action on the first character set region, export based on contactant the character to be entered that the slide before making deliberate action is determined.Here, deliberate action selects the slide of character different from user.
Particularly, if processing unit 12 is determined contactant and make deliberate action on the first character set region, processing unit 12 is exported the characters to be entered that the slide before making deliberate action is determined based on contactant, and deliberate action selects the slide of character different from user here.For example, this deliberate action can be the action that contactant leaves touch sensing unit 12.In this case, the character to be entered of the output definite character to be entered of the slide of that time that can be contactant before leaving touch sensing unit 12.In addition, in first area, be shown in Fig. 2 A in the situation that, owing to determining character to be entered by horizontally slipping, therefore default action can also be to slide up and down.In this case, the character to be entered of output can be the definite character to be entered of slide that contactant is made that time before deliberate action.
In addition, at contactant, from the first character set region, slide into the extra-regional situation of the first character set, the method of Fig. 3 can also comprise: if when showing first character set corresponding with the first character set region on second area, contactant detected outside sliding into the first character set region, the sliding position based on contactant is determined the second character set region, and by display unit, on second area, shows second character set corresponding with the second character set region.
Particularly, if when showing first character set corresponding with the first character set region on second area, processing unit 12 detects contactant outside sliding into the first character set region, and the sliding position of processing unit 12 based on contactant determined the second character set region.Here, position in the sliding position that processing unit 12 can be based on contactant and pre-stored first area is determined except extra-regional another character set region of the first character set (the second character set region) with the corresponding relation in corresponding character set region, and is determined the character set (second character set) corresponding with this second character set region.In this case, processing unit 12 shows second character set corresponding with the second character set region by display unit 10 on second area.By the way, In the view of user, if contactant moves to the another location first area from the first character set region, processing unit 12 is determined the second character set region corresponding with this another location, and shows second character set corresponding with this second character set region on display unit 10.Now, if contactant slides in the second character set region, processing unit 12 can be determined the character to be entered in the second character set by the slide based on contactant.
By the way, can determine character set region by touch and the slide of contactant, and then the slide in character set region is determined character to be entered according to contactant.In this case, even if user has produced false touch, also can proofread and correct false touch by slide.In addition, because contactant during slide does not leave touch sensing unit 11, therefore having saved contactant clicks the required time, thereby can realize quick input.
The the first character set region of the location positioning in first area according to contactant has been described in the above, slide based on user in the first character set region corresponding character in pointing out the first character set, and outside contactant slides into the first character set region, the second character set region of the location positioning in first area point out in the second character set the situation of corresponding character based on slide based on contactant again.Yet, the invention is not restricted to this, according to another embodiment of the invention, the step S304 of Fig. 3 can also comprise: if when showing first character set corresponding with the first character set region on second area, contactant detected and slide in described first area, based on contactant, the slide on described first area is determined character to be entered; And by display unit, on second area, point out character to be entered.
