Element input method, equipment and system

Abstract

The invention relates to an element input method, equipment and a system. A display displays circle speller; all symbols in one spelling scheme for spelling elements are arranged along the circle speller on the display; one or a plurality of symbols arranged along the circle speller on the display selected by a user are responded; a first zone on the display displays a possible symbol string which is started with a selected symbol; one of symbol strings displayed in the first zone selected by the user is responded; the first zone is updated by a possible element corresponding to the selected symbol string; one of elements displayed in the first zone selected by the user is responded; and the selected element is input.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to element input technology, and in particular to a method for inputting characters in non-Latin alphabet form, as well as corresponding equipment and systems. Background technique [0002] With the popularization of electronic devices, there is an increasing need to input elements, especially text, in the electronic devices. [0003] In the prior art, people generally use a keyboard to perform input. However, it is well known that keyboards, especially standard keyboards, are relatively large in size. Although some miniaturized keyboards have been developed, they are usually too small to be easily manipulated by the user. Moreover, using a keyboard for input is not particularly suitable for use in automobiles, because the installation of the keyboard will take up too much space in the car, especially the driver's control space. Furthermore, during driving, the driver's use of the keyboard for input can lead t...

[0006] Although this method reduces the occupancy of the interior space of the car, especially the driver's control space, and reduces the distraction of the driver's attention to a certain extent, thereby improving driving safety to a certain extent, but this input method requires The user performs multiple rotations and presses on the circular controller, which requires a long input time, and thus requires the electronic device to perform multiple processing accordingly, thereby occupying a lot of computing resources (such as CPU, memory, etc.) of the electronic device, so This approach leads to inefficiencies not only in terms of user manipulation, but also in terms of the internal performance of electronic devices

And this method needs to display the letter matrix on the display, which takes up a large area on the display
