Problems solved by technology

[0002] Many consumer electronic devices such as satellite navigation machines, MP3 players, small audio-visual players, handheld audio-visual game consoles, smart phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), etc. are quite popular, mainly due to their thin and light The short shape allows users to carry it easily, but no matter what kind of device it is, it is difficult to control it with one hand and one finger. The main reason is that many buttons must be designed to control various functions
[0003] With the handheld audio-visual player (iPod nano) released by Microsoft (Microsoft), a circular touch pad (Touch Pad) is arranged on it, and fingers can be moved on the touch pad to achieve volume control, function selection and For window scrolling and other functions, the control of many functions is built on the circular touchpad, but it must be held with one hand and controlled with the fingers of the other hand, and cannot be controlled with one hand and one finger, because the circular touchpad The control panel is not really ergonomic
