Image processing terminals and method to provide services based on detection levels of remote controller keys

Abstract

The invention relates to image processing terminals and method to provide services based on detection levels of remote controller keys. The image processing terminal according to one embodiment of theinvention comprises: a processor; a storage connected with the processor; and a communication portion that a control signal based on a user's key selection from a remote controller; the storage stores program commands that may be executed by the processor, such that the detection level of a key is judged according to the control signal of the key received by the remote controller so as to executea control command corresponding to the detection level of the key; the detection level includes common press and forced press; the forced press refers to applying additional pressure of specific intensity while holding the pressure upon the key after the common pressure occurs, so that the range of coordinate values corresponding to the detection level of the common press is exceeded.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image processing terminal and a method for providing services based on detection levels of remote control keys, and more specifically, relates to a technique for causing an image processing terminal to perform different actions according to the pressure of pressing a key of a remote control for controlling the image processing terminal. Background technique [0002] A set-top box (Set-Top Box) is a device connected to a TV to properly convert video and audio signals received from the outside and display the content on the TV. [0003] In addition to general TV broadcasting radio waves, the set-top box can also receive IPTV, cable TV or satellite TV signals and display them on the TV. [0004] This kind of set-top box generally includes a remote controller in a complete set, and the user controls the set-top box remotely by operating the remote controller. [0005] On the other hand, as the types of content and servi...

Problems solved by technology

[0006] Although it is desirable to provide users with diverse content services, there is an inconvenience that users need to know the uses of many keys on the remote controller one by one in order to use diverse content services.

[0007] In addition, since the remote controller has a large number of keys, it is difficult to perform blind control (blind control) of operating the remote controller while maintaining the line of sight toward the TV screen. In fact, there are many factors that hinder viewing when operating the remote controller. For example, whenever the remote control is operated, it is necessary to turn the line of sight towards the TV screen to the remote control again, etc.
