Problems solved by technology

Although the full keyboard is very convenient to use in many cases, due to the small keys or other reasons, the full keyboard is not as convenient to use in some scenarios as the ordinary keyboard. For example, when making a call, the user is still accustomed to using such figure 1 Numeric keypad shown
In the prior art, when inputting numeric characters on the full keyboard, the keys are relatively small, so the keys are easily pressed by mistake, which affects the input speed, etc.

Embodiment 1

[0016] Such as figure 2 As shown, the present embodiment provides an input device, and the device includes:

[0017] The full keyboard key unit 201 is configured to generate a key signal corresponding to the key according to the key touch of the full keyboard after starting the mapping mode;

[0018] The character retrieval unit 202 is configured to receive the key signal, obtain and output the digital character corresponding to the key signal according to the mapping relationship between the key signal corresponding to at least one key and a digital character.

[0019] Using the device of this embodiment, multiple keys in the full keyboard can be combined into one numeric key in the common numeric keyboard, which facilitates the user's input.

Embodiment 2

[0021] Such as image 3 As shown, the present embodiment provides an input device, and the device includes:

[0022] The full keyboard key unit 201 is configured to generate a key signal corresponding to the key according to the key touch of the full keyboard after starting the mapping mode;

[0023] A character retrieval unit 202, configured to receive the key signal, and obtain and output the digital character corresponding to the key signal according to the mapping relationship between the key signal corresponding to at least one key and a digital character;

[0024] The mapping editing unit 203 is configured to edit the mapping relationship between the key signal corresponding to the at least one key and a digital character.

[0025] A software interface can be set in the device of this embodiment, so that the device can start the mapping mode through the options in the interactive interface and the change of the use scene. The change of the use scene, such as enabling th...

Embodiment 3

[0028] Like the device in Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, the character retrieval unit 202 described in this embodiment may further include a first editing module 2021, for example Figure 5A , Figure 5B As shown, the first editing module 2021 can map the 4 adjacent keys forming a rectangular array in the 2 adjacent rows of keys in the full keyboard to 1 number key, that is, the mapping relationship includes pressing the pressed key The button signals generated by Q, W, A, S correspond to character 1, the button signals generated by pressing buttons E, R, D, F correspond to character 2, and the buttons generated by pressing buttons T, Y, G, H The signal corresponds to character 3.

[0029] The character retrieval unit 202 described in this embodiment may further include a second editing module 2022, such as Figure 6A , Figure 6B As shown, the second editing module 2022 can map 3 or 4 adjacent keys in a row of keys to a number key. For example, the button signals generate...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for inputting digital character with full keyboard and a device thereof, wherein the device comprises the following components: a full keyboard pushbutton unit which is used for generating a pushbutton signal corresponding with the pushbutton according to pushbutton pressing of full keyboard after actuating a mapping mode; and a character searching unit which is used for receiving the pushbutton signal, obtaining and outputting the digital character corresponding with the pushbutton signal according to the mapping relationship between the pushbutton signal corresponding with at least one pushbutton and a digital character. The invention has the beneficial effect that the method and the device according to the invention facilitate the user in inputting, increases the input efficiency and reduce the error rate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a keyboard input method and device, in particular to a method and device for inputting numeric characters with a full keyboard. Background technique [0002] The keyboard is an important user input tool for handheld devices. There are two types of keyboards for handheld devices: one is an ordinary numeric keyboard mainly composed of 10 numeric keys, "*" and "#" keys, such as our ordinary mobile phones; One is a full keyboard composed of 26 letter keys and other keys, such as the keyboard of the Blackberry mobile phone. Because the volume of the handheld device should not be too large, the keys of the full keyboard are all relatively small. Although the full keyboard is very convenient to use in many cases, due to the small keys or other reasons, the full keyboard is not as convenient to use in some scenarios as the ordinary keyboard. For example, when making a call, the user is still accustomed to using such figure 1 Numeric ...
