Problems solved by technology

[0003] Physical keyboards are currently only widely used on computers, and the user base is limited to users who can use computers. For smart home appliances that are mainly controlled by remote controls, adding physical keyboards is costly and increases the complexity of the device
[0004] The operation steps of the soft keyboard are relatively cumbersome, especially for smart home appliances that are mainly controlled by the remote control, it is necessary to operate the keys of the remote control multiple times to select a character, which is complicated and slow
[0005] It is also proposed to input text by directly setting the keyboard on the remote control, but this method needs to take into account the small size requirements of the remote control at the same time, the number or size of the keyboards has strong restrictions, and the user's line of sight needs to be in the It is very inconvenient to use the remote control and home appliances to move back and forth, and the character input efficiency is low

Abstract

The invention provides a character input method which includes the steps that a circular annular virtual keyboard and a character input region are displayed on a display screen of an electronic device, and characters to be selected are arranged on the circular annular vertical keyboard in sequence; response to the operation conducted on a rotating controller on a remote controller is conducted, and the currently selected characters are switched in sequence while the currently selected characters are displayed on the circular annular vertical keyboard in a highlighted mode; response to the operation conducted on a determination function key on the remote controller, the selection of the currently selected characters is determined, and the currently selected characters are displayed in the character input region. By means of the character input method, the character input efficiency can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to information input technology, in particular to a character input method. Background technique [0002] At present, there are mainly two ways to input text in smart home appliances. One way is to directly use a physical keyboard, such as a full keyboard, and the other is a soft keyboard, that is, an on-screen keyboard. [0003] Physical keyboards are currently only used on computers, and the user base is limited to users who can use computers. For smart home appliances that are mainly controlled by remote controls, adding a physical keyboard is costly and increases the complexity of the device. [0004] The operation steps of the soft keyboard are relatively cumbersome, especially for smart home appliances that are mainly controlled by the remote control, it is necessary to operate the buttons of the remote control multiple times to select a character, which is complicated and slow. [0005] It is also proposed to input text by...
