Indicating device and operating method thereof

Abstract

An indicating device and an operating method thereof are disclosed. The indicating device includes a display element and a functional module. The display element includes physical scales, at least oneinformation indicating identification disposed on the physical scales, and at least one indicator disposed on the physical scales. The functional module includes a touch detection unit configured tosense a signal change via a transparent conductive film; and a processor configured to output, according to the signal change, a command to control the at least one indicator to indicate information corresponding the at least one information indicating identification. The indicating device and the operating method thereof can display time and other information.

Description

technical field [0001] The disclosure relates to an information indication method, in particular to an indication device and an operation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Currently, a wearable device has been developed as an input device capable of communicating with an external device (such as a mobile phone). For example, it has become more and more common to install a wireless antenna and a functional module in a traditional wristwatch (i.e., an analog wristwatch) to make the wristwatch a smart wristwatch. The existing wireless antenna for smart wristwatches Usually, a chip antenna (chip antenna), helix antenna (Helix or Spiral antenna), patch antenna (patchantenna) or loop antenna (loop antenna) etc. is used to receive and transmit signals. A chip antenna is a kind of electromagnetic field antenna, that is to say, a chip antenna uses an electromagnetic field to receive and transmit signals. [0003] The existing smart watch structure usually includes a sur...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The antenna is installed in the housing space or the watch case inside the original wristwatch. However, the objects forming the housing space, such as the case, bottom case, and dial of the existing smart watch, are generally made of metal, which has the ability to shield signals. Therefore, the signal received or transmitted by the accommodation space of the existing smart watch or the antenna in the case will be affected by the case, bottom case, dial and other objects made of metal

[0004] Even if at least one of the dial, case, and bottom case forming the accommodation space is made of non-metal, or the object of at least one of them is partially made of non-metal, if the antenna is placed in the accommodation space or the case Inside, the antenna will still be affected by the objects that form the accommodation space, such as the dial, watch case, bottom case, or the movement, functional modules, and batteries placed in the accommodation space, resulting in interference with external devices (such as mobile phones) The wireless communication distance is greatly shortened

[0005] In addition, traditional watches do not have touch screens and electronic knobs (buttons). Even if various communication and computing modules or sensors are installed in the watch, traditional watches can only display time through physical time display components , the traditional watch does not have the function of displaying other information (such as the result of sensor perception), that is to say, the user cannot get the desired information from the traditional watch, for example, when the traditional watch is equipped with multiple sensors Or processor to provide step counting function, the traditional watch can not provide a suitable way to display the step counting data
