Problems solved by technology

However, the current touch-screen mobile terminal still retains two physical buttons on the side, the volume button and the power button, which are mechanical contact control buttons. , have certain defects, especially with the popularization and development of large-screen touch-screen mobile terminals, especially as mobile terminals become thinner and thinner, the design space of physical buttons is getting smaller and smaller, and the design difficulty and cost are getting bigger and bigger. Making physical buttons less and less in line with the development trend

[0073] Such as image 3 As shown, the first embodiment of the touch operation method of the present invention is proposed, and the method includes the following steps:

[0074] Step S11: setting a fingerprint sensor on the side of the terminal.

[0075] The fingerprint sensor of this embodiment is preferably a semiconductor capacitive fingerprint sensor. A general fingerprint sensor can work in two modes, one is a capture mode and the other is an input mode. In the capture mode, fingerprint images can be captured, the resolution is set very high, and the power consumption is high, so it is only used in the process of fingerprint collection and fingerprint unlocking. In the input mode, the resolution is low and the power consumption is small, which is the default working mode of the fingerprint sensor. In this embodiment, the fingerprint sensor is used to realize the button function in the input mode.

[0085] Such as Figure 5 As shown, the second embodiment of the touch operation method of the present invention is proposed, and the method includes the following steps:

[0086] Step S21: setting a fingerprint sensor on the side of the terminal, and defining a first touch area and a second touch area on the fingerprint sensor.

[0087] Such as Figure 6 As shown, the touch points of the fingerprint sensor in this embodiment are still arranged in a 3X4 dot matrix, and the six touch point areas in the upper half are defined as the first touch area A, and the six touch point areas in the lower half are Defined as the second touch area B.

[0088] Step S22: receiving simultaneous touch operations on the first touch area and the second touch area of ​​the fingerprint sensor.

[0089] Step S23: Input and execute the switch operation command.

[0090] In this embodiment, only when the user touches the first touch area and the second touch area of ​​the fingerprint sensor at the ...

[0099] Such as Figure 8 As shown, the fourth embodiment of the touch operation method of the present invention is proposed, and the method includes the following steps:

[0100] Step S31: setting a fingerprint sensor on the side of the terminal, and defining a first touch area and a second touch area on the fingerprint sensor.

[0101] Step S32: receiving simultaneous touch operations on the first touch area and the second touch area of ​​the fingerprint sensor.

[0102] Step S33: Input and execute the switch operation instruction.

[0103] Step S34: receiving a sliding operation on the first touch area and the second touch area of ​​the fingerprint sensor.

[0104] The sliding operation may be an operation of sliding from the first touch area to the second touch area, or an operation of sliding from the second touch area to the first touch area, or between the first touch area and the second touch area. The control area slides repeatedly.

[0105] Step S35: Input and exe...

Abstract

The present invention discloses a touch operation method and apparatus, the method applies to a terminal, and a side surface of the terminal is provided with a fingerprint sensor. The method comprises steps of: receiving a touch operation by using the fingerprint sensor and inputting a corresponding operation instruction; and executing the operation instruction. The side surface of the terminal is provided with the fingerprint sensor, and a touch operation is received by using the fingerprint sensor, so that a conventional power button or / and volume button are simulated, to replace conventional physical buttons based on mechanical contacts, thereby reducing costs, making the terminal simpler and more elegant, meanwhile eliminating the wear problem of mechanical buttons, improving aesthetics and durability, and resulting in a more sensitive and comfortable operation.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technologies, and in particular to a touch operation method and device. Background technique [0002] Touch operation has the advantages of convenient operation, sensitivity, comfort, and durability, and is very popular among users. Therefore, most of the mobile terminals on the market are touch-screen mobile terminals, and traditional physical key mobile terminals have gradually been eliminated. However, the current touch-screen mobile terminal still retains two physical buttons on the side, the volume button and the power button, which are mechanical contact control buttons. , have certain defects, especially with the popularization and development of large-screen touch-screen mobile terminals, especially as mobile terminals become thinner and thinner, the design space of physical buttons is getting smaller and smaller, and the design difficulty and cost are getting bigger and bigger. Make ...
