Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, there will be disadvantages in the process of using the new keyboard: since the keyboard body is made of rigid material, if the user does not check the display of the electronic device, it is impossible to confirm whether the correct key has been clicked, which requires the user to check the electronic device frequently. The display of the device is bound to reduce the user's input speed

Abstract

The invention discloses a keyboard. The keyboard comprises a first panel, a first device and a detection unit. M physical buttons on the first panel have a first status and a second status. The first device can adjust the M physical buttons to be in the first status according to a first switching order output by the detection unit, so that the surface of the keyboard is plane. The first device can adjust the M physical buttons to be in the second status according to a second switching order output by the detection unit. When a user clicks the physical button, the clicked physical button changes the shape from the second status to the first status, and generates tactile feedback, so that the user can be guaranteed to confirm the clicked physical button according to the tactile feedback without seeing the display of an electronic device frequently, and improves the input speed. The invention also discloses the electronic device and a control method thereof.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of data input equipment, and in particular relates to a keyboard, electronic equipment and a control method. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of interactive technology, new types of keyboards have appeared at present. The new keyboard includes a keyboard body and a detection device. The keyboard body is made of glass or other similar rigid materials (such as tempered glass), and keys are printed or etched on the keyboard body. When the user uses the new keyboard, the detection device can Detect the user's operation to realize data input. The new keyboard has a smooth surface, and is applied in some electronic devices, such as using the new keyboard in a deformable notebook computer, so as to adapt to various working modes of the deformable notebook computer. [0003] However, there will be disadvantages in the process of using the new keyboard: since the keyboard body is made o...
