Input method and keypad applying finger discrimination

Abstract

The invention provides an input keyboard. A processor detects the key matrix to obtain key-state signals; an inductive recognizer recognizes the finger positions of a user on the key matrix and / or sets finger positions of the user via position keys; a code generator performs code conversion and keying input according to position signals and key-state signals. The invention also provides an input method of the keyboard. The input keyboard and the input method of the invention have the following advantages that: with recognition technology, pressing a same key with different fingers can input different meanings, so keyboard input is simplified with fewer keys, key numbers for fingers are uniformly distributed and finger motion scopes are minimized. The left hand and the right handwork separately, and the thumbs and the palms are put on a supporting position in normal time, so the operation not only is consistent with input habits and easy to learn and master, but also improves the inputspeed and reduces hand fatigue.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to input and output devices, electronic devices such as computers, mobile phones and multimedia devices, in particular to an input method using finger recognition and a keyboard. Background technique [0002] At present, electronic devices such as computers, mobile phones, and multimedia equipment are more and more widely used, and they are even inseparable from work, study, and life. People use them for word processing, image processing, design, management, and connecting to the Internet to send and receive emails, search and download information, browsing the web, video games, communicating, etc. [0003] Computer technology is also developing rapidly, the computing speed is getting faster and faster, and the processing capacity is getting higher and higher, but the keyboard as an input and output device still uses the standard QWERTY keyboard in the era of typewriters. Although there are a lot of improvements in keyboard design...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Computer technology is also developing rapidly, the computing speed is getting faster and faster, and the processing capacity is getting higher and higher, but the keyboard as an input and output device still uses the standard QWERTY keyboard in the era of typewriters. Although there are a lot of improvements in keyboard design and ergonomics, but generally accepted

At the same time, the shortcomings of the standard QWERTY keyboard are generally recognized, such as difficulty in learning and memory, slow input speed, easy hand fatigue, etc.
