Magic cube input system

Abstract

A magic cube input system comprises a control module, a page module, a quick pick module, and a function module; the function module performs selection of a character input mode or a screen keyboard change mode. Under the character input mode, the control module receives voice instructions or motion instructions to control page scrolling of the page module, pick an initial character and subsequent characters successively after the initial character being picked, and the quick pick module presents commonly used characters or vocabularies to be picked up quickly through the control module. Under the screen keyboard change mode, the control module receives the voice instructions or motion instructions to control the page scrolling of the page module and select a suitable screen keyboard via the page scrolling so as to perform character or symbol input or the screen keyboard quick change.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to an input system for smart devices especially wearable smart devices and portable smart devices, and more particularly to an input system which is controlled with voices, touches, gestures, a mouse, key pressing, knob turning, sensing or remote control to attain purposes of conversion for screen keyboards and character or symbol input.[0003]2. Description of Related Art[0004]The currently used input technology is keying data with a keyboard, clicking a virtual keyboard on a screen with a mouse, touching the virtual keyboard on the screen, or reading out words. However, the traditional key arrangement on the keyboard, input mode, and inconvenient screen keyboard change are hardly to satisfy a variety of smart products. For example:[0005]1. The conventional keyboard or mouse is inconvenient to be carried.[0006]2. The keys on the conventional keyboard or virtual keyboard on the screen are cl...

Benefits of technology

[0019]The magic cube input system according to the present invention is mainly used for character and symbol input and screen keyboards conversion. With one of the purposes, characters and symbols are distributed on a page of a magic cube analog, and the characters are input via the page of the cube being scrolled to achieve the purpose of character being picked; the magic cube input system can be applied to various smart devices, the characters are simply arranged, and the system is controlled easily via simple voice instructions such as “up”, “down”, “left” and “right”, numbers “1”, “2”, “3”, “4”, “5”, “6”, “7”, “8” and “9”, “move forward”, “move backward”, “delete”, “confirm”, “transmit”, “switch”, “quickly pick” and “convert” to complete character input and message transmission so as to enhance recognition and control facility to avoid leakage of the input data; the magic cube input system also can be controlled to pick characters via a gesture, touch, mouse, key pressing, knob turning, sensing or controller. With the other one of the purposes, different screen keyboards which are presented on different pages can be scrolled to attain screen keyboard conversion fast via a gesture, touch, mouse, key pressing, knob turning, sensing or controller. The present invention can be operated with character and symbol input speedily and effectively at any locations.

[0020]The magic cube input system in accordance with the present invention is a word and message input system with which characters and symbols are arranged in a nine-angle grid on each surface of a magic cube analog or various screen keyboards are converted there between by way of page rolling; the magic cube input system conducts the character and symbol input via control of page rolling to pick characters or conversions of the screen keyboards. The magic cube input system is suitable for various smart devices such as computers, smart televisions, tablets, mobile phones, smart watches, smart hand rings, and smart glasses; it is not only easier and faster for the word input but also capable of solving input problems resulting from too small screen provided by the wearable devices and hand held devices or the screen being unable to be touched directly.

Problems solved by technology

However, the traditional key arrangement on the keyboard, input mode, and inconvenient screen keyboard change are hardly to satisfy a variety of smart products.

1. The conventional keyboard or mouse is inconvenient to be carried.

2. The keys on the conventional keyboard or virtual keyboard on the screen are close to each other such that it is easy to touch a wrong key inadvertently or not easy to find a right key conveniently.

3. The wearable devices provide a limited screen size and the screen is hard to be touched directly such that it is unfavorable for the user to conduct input with the virtual keyboard on the screen.

6. Steps to perform conversion between the screen keyboards are very complicated with inadequate intuition.
