Abstract

There is provided an optical navigation device including an image sensor, a processing unit, a storage unit and an output unit. The image sensor is configured to successively capture images. The processing unit is configured to calculate a current displacement according to the images and to compare the current displacement or an accumulated displacement with a threshold so as to determine an outputted displacement. The storage unit is configured to save the accumulated displacement. The output unit is configured to output the outputted displacement with a report rate.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the priority benefit of Taiwan Patent Application Serial Number 101115438, filed on May 1, 2012, the full disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND[0002]1. Field of the Disclosure[0003]This disclosure generally relates to a human machine interface device and, more particularly, to an optical navigation device and a locus smoothing method thereof capable of increasing locus smoothness.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]Traditionally, the optical mouse is one of the peripheral devices for interacting with the computer system having a display screen. An optical mouse generally includes a light source, an image sensor and a processing unit. The light source emits light to a working surface. The image sensor receives reflected light from the working surface and successively outputs image frames. The processing unit calculates a displacement of the optical mouse with respect to the worki...
