Embodiment Construction

[0043] figure 1 A schematic diagram showing an electronic device with tactile feedback according to an embodiment. exist figure 1 Among them, the electronic device 100 is, for example, a mobile computing device such as a mobile phone, a multimedia player, a digital assistant or an e-book, a tablet computer, or even a digital camera and other handheld devices. The electronic device 100 provides tactile sensation by controlling the vibration unit 120 feedback function. The tactile feedback function provided by the electronic device 100 further has a dynamic range compression mechanism, which can avoid distortion caused by analog or digital signal output limitations of circuits implementing the tactile feedback function. This distortion tends to create uncomfortable tactile feedback, creating an annoying user experience. As shown in the following embodiments, the electronic device 100 can reduce the distortion through the mechanism of dynamic range compression and improve user...

Abstract

The invention provides an electronic device with tactile feedback and a method for providing tactile feedback. The method comprises providing a vibration unit to generate tactile feedback; and dynamically generating a control value in response to at least one tactile command to control the vibration unit to generate tactile feedback, wherein the control value is dynamically generated by applying dynamic range compression treatment to control the magnitude of tactile feedback substantially in a vibration range.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to an electronic device, and more particularly to a handheld device with tactile feedback. Background technique [0002] Handheld devices such as smart phones, personal digital assistants, and multimedia players mostly provide a variety of functions to meet the needs of users. For users, whether the products of these handheld devices can provide an easy-to-operate user interface and allow users to have a good user experience greatly affects the willingness to use the product. [0003] Handheld devices with single-touch or multi-touch GUIs have become the mainstream user interface at present, making the handheld devices easier to use. However, for users, hand-held devices with touch functions still cannot meet the demand for human-computer interaction, so some manufacturers have developed haptic feedback (haptic feedback) on electronic products to provide a simple vibration function. The tactile feedback technology stil...
