Problems solved by technology

[0004] In the prior art, in order to realize the fingerprint recognition function and the touch function of the display screen at the same time, and to ensure that the application of the two functions does not affect each other, the method of integrating the fingerprint recognition function in the Home physical button is usually adopted at present. This method is not only a single , and it is easy to cause misoperation due to wrong input of fingerprint

Embodiment 1

[0036] This embodiment provides a terminal, such as figure 1 As shown, the terminal includes: a flexible screen, an input unit, a bending sensor, and a main control unit; wherein, the input unit further includes a fingerprint recognition unit and a touch input unit.

[0037] The fingerprint recognition unit is fixedly installed in the flexible screen, and is activated when receiving an instruction to enable the fingerprint recognition function, and is used to collect and recognize fingerprints input in the fingerprint input area. The fingerprint input area of ​​the fingerprint identification unit is located in the touch input area or non-touch input area of ​​the flexible screen; usually, the front of the flexible screen is a touch input area, and the back is a non-touch input area, so the fingerprint input area can be It is located on the front of the flexible screen and coincides with part or all of the touch input area of ​​the flexible screen, or it can be located on the b...

Embodiment 2

[0045] For the situation where the fingerprint input area is located in the touch input area of ​​the flexible screen, the second embodiment provides a corresponding control method, such as Figure 5 shown, including steps:

[0046] Step S501, initialization setting: enable the touch function of the touch input unit, and disable the fingerprint recognition function of the fingerprint recognition unit.

[0047] Since the use time limit and scenarios of the touch function far exceed the use time limit and scenarios of the fingerprint recognition function during terminal use, and the fingerprint recognition function is only used in some special cases involving privacy or security requirements, therefore, this implementation For example, perform the above initialization settings.

[0048] Step S502, real-time detection of the bending state of the flexible screen at the position of the bending sensing area.

[0049] The bending state at the position of the bending sensing area wi...

Embodiment 3

[0060] For the case where the fingerprint input area is located in the non-touch input area of ​​the flexible screen, the control of the touch function and the fingerprint recognition function can be realized in the same way as in the second embodiment.

[0061] However, since the fingerprint input area is in the non-touch input area, in practical applications, the fingerprint identification function and the touch function will not affect each other, so any existing method can be used to control the touch function and the fingerprint identification function. I won't repeat them here.

[0062] During the user's actual operation, since the fingerprint input area is located on the back of the flexible screen and is invisible to the user, it is not easy for the user to quickly and accurately find the corresponding position when inputting the fingerprint. Therefore, when inputting the fingerprint, the area can be bent In order to make the fingerprint input area visible to the user,...

Abstract

The invention discloses a terminal and a control method for the same. The terminal comprises a flexible screen and a main control unit as well as an input unit and a bending sensor which are installed on the flexible screen, wherein the input unit is used to input information and / or control commands; the bending sensor is used to detect a bending state of the flexible screen in a bending sensing area of the bending sensor; and the main control unit is used to control switching-on and switching-off of the input unit according to the bending state of the flexible screen in the bending sensing area of the bending sensor. According to the invention, a fingerprint recognition unit is integrated on the traditional flexible screen; a fingerprint recognition function or a touch control function can be controlled according to the bending state of the flexible screen, and / or separate switching-on / switching off can be achieved, so that wrong operations can be avoided effectively, users' operation modes are enriched, and use experience is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of terminals, in particular to a terminal and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] In the field of display technology, as a new input device, a touch panel has been widely used in the field of touch display technology. Touch panels include resistive, capacitive, optical, electromagnetic, etc. Among them, capacitive touch screens have the advantages of fast response, good reliability, high durability, and multi-touch capabilities, and are widely used on mobile terminals. At the same time, with the development of flexible display technology, current mobile terminals such as mobile phones, smart watches, smart bracelets, etc. all have a trend of becoming thinner, flexible and bendable. Therefore, flexibility, that is, thinness and flexibility are required for touch panels used in portable terminals. [0003] At the same time, with the rapid development of fingerprint technology and ...
