[0034] Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, example embodiments can be implemented in a variety of forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that the disclosure will be more comprehensive and complete and to fully convey the concepts of the example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The described features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0035] In addition, the accompanying drawings are only schematic illustrations of the present disclosure and are not necessarily drawn to scale. The same reference numerals in the figures represent the same or similar parts, and their repeated description will be omitted. Some of the block diagrams shown in the accompanying drawings are functional entities and do not necessarily correspond to physically or logically independent entities. These functional entities can be implemented in software form, or implemented in one or more hardware modules or integrated circuits, or implemented in different networks and / or processor devices and / or microcontroller devices.

[0036] When using electronic devices, such as mobile phones and watches, vibration can be used to provide information prompts or feedback.

[0037] In the related art, the vibration intensity can be adjusted according to the external sound volume, for example, a sensor can be used to obtain the external sound intensity, and the vibration mode can be selected according to the sound intensity. For another example, based on the sound sensor, motion sensor, mobile phone processor and scene mode conversion module, the scene mode of the mobile phone can be automatically converted to weekly short ringtone plus vibration, vibration, or ringtone plus vibration according to whether the mobile phone is in motion and the intensity of the surrounding sound.

[0038] However, since the human body's perception of sound and vibration comes from different receptors, the method of adjusting the vibration intensity according to the intensity of external sound lacks scientificity, resulting in low accuracy in adjusting the vibration intensity.

[0039] In view of the above problems, an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure provides a vibration adjustment method of an electronic device.

[0040] Next, combine Figure 1 The system architecture of the operating environment of this exemplary embodiment is exemplarily described.

[0041] Figure 1A schematic diagram of a system architecture is shown, and the system architecture 200 may include a terminal 110 and a server 120. The terminal 110 may be a terminal device such as a smart phone, a tablet computer, an intelligent wearable electronic device (such as a smart watch), and a vibrator is configured in the terminal 110, and a vibration prompt may be provided for a vibration triggering event in the terminal by the vibrator. The server 120 generally refers to a background system that provides related services of the vibration adjustment method of the electronic device in this exemplary embodiment. The server 120 may be a cloud server. The terminal 110 and the server 120 may be connected via a wired or wireless communication link to perform data interaction.

[0042] Taking the electronic device as an example, which is a smart phone terminal, in an exemplary implementation, when a vibration triggering event occurs in the smart phone, such as an incoming call vibration reminder event, the smart phone terminal can determine the target vibration sensing object, such as the contact area between the user's palm and the smart phone, and then adjust the vibration intensity of the vibrator according to the contact area to determine the current vibration intensity of the vibrator, thereby providing a vibration prompt for the vibration triggering event based on the current vibration intensity.

[0043] Continuing with the example that the electronic device is a smart phone terminal, in another exemplary implementation, when a vibration trigger event occurs in the smart phone, the server can determine the contact area between the target sensing object and the electronic device based on the contact data generated by the smart phone, and then adjust the vibration intensity of the vibrator based on the contact area to determine the current vibration intensity of the vibrator, so that the vibrator can vibrate to prompt the vibration trigger event according to the current vibration intensity.

[0044] As can be seen from the above, the execution subject of the vibration adjustment method of the electronic device in this exemplary embodiment can be the terminal 110 mentioned above, or can be the server 120 mentioned above, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0045] Combine the following Figure 2 A vibration adjustment method of an electronic device in this exemplary embodiment is described, wherein the electronic device includes a vibrator, Figure 2 An exemplary process of the vibration adjustment method of the electronic device is shown, which may include:

[0046] Step S210, in response to a vibration triggering event occurring in the electronic device, determining a contact area between the target vibration sensing object and the electronic device;

[0047] Step S220: adjusting the vibration intensity of the vibrator according to the contact area to determine the current vibration intensity of the vibrator.

[0048] Based on the above method, when a vibration trigger event occurs in an electronic device, the vibration intensity of the electronic device can be adjusted according to the target sensing object currently holding the electronic device, such as the contact area between the user's palm and the electronic device, thereby improving the accuracy of determining the vibration intensity and further enhancing the user's vibration tactile experience.

[0049] Below Figure 2 The steps shown are explained in detail.

[0050] In step S210, in response to a vibration triggering event occurring in the electronic device, a contact area between the target vibration sensing object and the electronic device is determined.

[0051] In an exemplary embodiment, the vibration trigger event may include an incoming call or text message, and may also include receiving various notification messages, such as alarms, to-do reminders, application notification messages, and other reminder events. The vibration trigger condition may be pre-configured, and when a vibration trigger event that meets the vibration trigger condition occurs in the electronic device, the vibrator in the electronic device will vibrate, and the user will be notified or reminded of the event through vibration.

[0052] In another exemplary embodiment, the vibrator can also be used to provide touch vibration feedback when the user operates the electronic device. In other words, the vibration trigger event can also include a touch vibration feedback event, such as a user's gesture operation such as pressing, sliding, clicking, etc. on the touch screen of the electronic device, taking pictures, playing music, and operating games, etc., which can all be provided with touch vibration feedback through the vibrator.

[0053] In an exemplary implementation, the target vibration sensing object is used to sense the vibration prompt generated by the vibrator in response to the vibration triggering event.

[0054] For example, the electronic device in the present disclosure may include a tablet computer, a smart phone, a wearable electronic device (such as a smart watch), etc. In the case where the electronic device is a tablet computer or a smart phone, the target vibration sensing object may include the palm of the user holding the electronic device, that is, when the user holds the tablet computer or the smart phone, the vibration of the electronic device can be sensed by the palm of the user. In the case where the electronic device is a smart watch, the target vibration sensing object may include the arm of the user wearing the smart watch, such as the wrist, etc.

[0055] As mentioned above, the electronic device includes a vibrator, that is, the electronic device is equipped with a vibrator. The vibrator is a vibration motor, also known as a tactile feedback motor, and its main function is to provide an interactive experience between the user and the electronic device through vibration or vibration feedback.

[0056] In an exemplary embodiment, the vibrator is disposed at an edge of a housing of the electronic device, and the contact area includes a contact area between the target vibration sensing object and the edge of the housing of the electronic device.

[0057] For example, the vibrator can be configured to correspond to a portion of the edge of the housing, and the area occupied by the setting position of the vibrator is less than or equal to the edge area of ​​the housing of the electronic device. For example, taking the electronic device as a smart phone, the commonly used vibrator in the smart phone is a linear motor, which allows users to feel tactile feedback from the phone, providing a more immersive or interactive user experience. Linear motors can be divided into X-axis linear motors and Z-axis linear motors. The X-axis linear motor is usually installed in the horizontal direction of the phone, that is, the left and right sides of the phone (long side), while the Z-axis linear motor is usually installed in the longitudinal direction of the phone, that is, the upper and lower sides (short sides) of the phone. The X-axis linear motor can be used to provide vibration feedback in the horizontal direction. The Z-axis linear motor can be used to provide vibration feedback in the vertical direction. The size of the linear motor is less than or equal to the size of the phone frame.

[0058] In an exemplary embodiment, when the electronic device has a surround screen or an external screen, the contact area between the target vibration sensing object and the electronic device can be determined by the area of ​​the pixels at the edge of the screen of the electronic device covered by the target vibration sensing object.

[0059] In another exemplary embodiment, when the electronic device has a physical frame, at least one pressure sensing unit may be configured in the electronic device, such as setting a pressure sensing unit at the frame position of the electronic device, and then determining the holding posture of the target vibration sensing object relative to the electronic device through the pressure sensed by the pressure sensing unit, thereby determining the contact area between the target vibration sensing object and the electronic device through the holding posture of the target vibration sensing object relative to the electronic device.

[0060] Based on this, for example, Figure 3 A schematic diagram showing a method for determining a contact area in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 3 , the method may include steps S310 to S330. Wherein:

[0061] In step S310, in response to a vibration triggering event occurring in the electronic device, a pressure value of each pressure sensing unit is determined.

[0062] As mentioned above, at least one pressure sensing unit is configured in the electronic device, wherein the pressure sensing unit can be pre-set at any position of the edge of the housing of the electronic device. The size of the pressure unit can also be determined according to demand, and this exemplary embodiment does not specifically limit this.

[0063] Take the mobile phone as an example, Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a pressure sensing unit provided in a mobile phone in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 4 As shown, four pressure sensing units can be set on the edge of the mobile phone housing, namely Figure 4 Pressure sensing unit A, pressure sensing unit B, pressure sensing unit C, and pressure sensing unit D. Figure 4 The pressure sensing unit setting method shown in the figure allows the pressure sensing unit to exist on all four sides of the edge of the mobile phone shell, so that more holding postures can be determined in subsequent steps based on the pressure sensing unit. Of course, two pressure sensing units can also be set on the left and right sides of the edge of the mobile phone shell, or two pressure sensing units can be set on the upper and lower sides of the edge of the mobile phone shell, respectively. Three pressure sensing units can also be set on any three sides of the edge of the mobile phone shell. In the case where the size of the pressure sensing unit is small, six pressure sensing units can also be set on the edge of the mobile phone shell, such as setting one pressure sensing unit on the upper and lower sides respectively, and then setting two pressure sensing units on the left edge of the mobile phone shell, and setting two pressure sensing units on the right edge of the mobile phone shell. This exemplary embodiment does not make any special limitation to this.

[0064] Exemplarily, in a case where a pressure sensing unit is pre-configured in the electronic device, when a vibration triggering event occurs in the electronic device, the pressure value sensed by each pressure sensing unit can be obtained.

[0065] In step S320, the current holding posture of the target vibration sensing object with respect to the electronic device is determined according to the pressure value of each of the pressure sensing units.

[0066] Exemplarily, a specific implementation of step S320 may include: according to the pressure value of each of the pressure sensing units, searching in a first mapping relationship table for the holding posture corresponding to the pressure value of each of the pressure sensing units, so as to determine the current holding posture of the target vibration sensing object for the electronic device; wherein, the method for determining the first mapping relationship table includes: pre-collecting the pressure value of each of the pressure sensing units when different vibration sensing objects take different holding postures for the electronic device; and establishing a first mapping relationship table between the pressure value of each pressure sensing unit and the holding posture according to the collected pressure values.

[0067] Taking the electronic device as an example, a smart phone may be held by a user in different holding postures, such as one-handed or two-handed. The contact area between the user's palm and the phone is different in each holding posture. When the user uses different holding postures, the pressure value sensed by each pressure sensing unit is different. Therefore, the current holding posture can be determined by the pressure value sensed by the pressure sensing unit.

[0068] For example, various possible holding postures of different users when using mobile phones can be determined in advance through extensive research. Figure 5A , Figure 5B , Figure 5C and Figure 5D Four typical holding postures are shown respectively. Then, for each holding posture, the pressure values ​​sensed by each pressure sensing unit configured in the mobile phone when different users hold the mobile phone using the holding posture are collected in advance. Since different users have different holding strengths when using the same holding posture, such as some hold it tighter and some hold it looser, and the palm sizes of different users are also different, the pressure values ​​detected by each pressure detection unit for the same holding posture may be different. Therefore, for the same holding posture, the corresponding relationship between the pressure value range of each pressure sensing unit and the holding posture can be established based on the pressure values ​​of each pressure sensing unit collected when different users use the holding posture. Based on the corresponding relationship between the pressure value range of each pressure sensing unit and the holding posture established under different holding postures, the first mapping relationship table between the pressure value of each pressure sensing unit and the holding posture can be determined.

[0069] Among them, for the mapping relationship in the first mapping relationship table, for the same holding posture, it is determined by the pressure value range of each pressure sensing unit. Figure 4 Taking the figure as an example, a mapping relationship in the first mapping relationship table can be expressed as follows: when the pressure value range of pressure sensing unit A is greater than a and less than b, and the pressure value range of pressure sensing unit B is greater than c, and the pressure value range of pressure sensing unit C is greater than d and less than e, and the pressure value range of pressure sensing unit D is greater than f and less than g, the holding posture B1 is adopted. That is, each mapping relationship in the first mapping relationship table is a corresponding relationship between the combination result of the pressure value range of the pressure sensing unit and the holding posture, and the current pressure value of each pressure sensing unit needs to satisfy its corresponding pressure value range at the same time to determine the current holding posture.

[0070] For example, another specific implementation of step S320 can be as follows: Figure 6 shown. Figure 6 A flowchart of a method for determining a current holding posture in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 6 , the method may include steps S610 to S630. Wherein:

[0071] In step S610, the target pressure generating position of the target vibration sensing object on the electronic device is determined according to the pressure value of each pressure sensing unit and the setting position of each pressure sensing unit.

[0072] For example, the target pressure position of the target vibration sensing object on the electronic device can be determined based on the pressure sensing unit that detects pressure and its corresponding setting position and the pressure sensing unit that does not detect pressure and its corresponding setting position. Figure 5A When the holding posture is set as Figure 4 Taking the example shown, pressure sensing unit A and pressure sensing unit B can output pressure values, while pressure sensing unit C and pressure sensing unit D have no pressure output values. The target pressure generating position is the set position corresponding to pressure sensing unit A and pressure sensing unit B.

[0073] In step S620, the target size of the target vibration sensing object is obtained.

[0074] Taking the target vibration sensing object as the user's palm as an example, when the user turns on the real-time vibration intensity adjustment function in the electronic device, the user can be guided to enter the palm size data such as the palm area, and the entered palm area and other size data can be saved in the non-volatile memory of the electronic device. The user's ID (Identity Document) and the user's palm area and other size data can also be associated, and the association relationship can be sent to the server to store the user's palm area and other size data in the server. Correspondingly, the target size of the target vibration sensing object stored in the electronic device can be obtained, and the target size of the target vibration sensing object stored in the server can also be obtained from the server.

[0075] For example, the user can be guided to measure the user's palm size data in advance through the TOF (Time-of-Flight) camera in the camera module of the electronic device, and then calculate the user's palm area based on the palm area calculation formula according to the measured palm size data. For example, the TOF camera in the camera module can capture the user's palm image, and at the same time determine the distance from the camera module lens to the user's palm based on the TOF technology, that is, the shooting distance. By measuring the size of the palm in the user's palm image, such as measuring the size data such as the palm width, and then based on the palm area calculation formula, the palm area in the captured user's palm image can be calculated according to the measured size, and the scaling ratio of the user's palm image relative to the user's actual palm can be determined by the shooting distance. Finally, the user's palm area can be determined according to the product of the calculated palm area in the user's palm image and the scaling ratio. In other words, the user's palm area is also a calculated value, and there may be a small deviation between it and the user's actual palm area. However, the larger the actual palm area of ​​the user, the larger the calculated palm area, and the smaller the actual palm area, the smaller the calculated palm area. Therefore, the calculated palm area can still reflect the actual palm area of ​​the user to a large extent.

[0076] In step S630, based on the target size and the target pressure generation position, the holding posture corresponding to the target size and the target pressure generation position is searched in the second mapping relationship table between the vibration sensing object size and pressure generation position and the holding posture to determine the current holding posture of the target vibration sensing object for the electronic device.

[0077] In an exemplary embodiment, the method for determining the second mapping relationship table includes: pre-collecting the pressure value of each pressure sensing unit when vibration sensing objects of different sizes adopt different holding postures for the electronic device; for each size of the vibration sensing object, determining the pressure generating position of each size of the vibration sensing object in different holding postures according to the collected pressure values ​​of the pressure sensing units at different positions; and determining the second mapping relationship table between the size and pressure generating position of the vibration sensing object and the holding posture according to the pressure generating position of each size of the vibration sensing object in different holding postures.

[0078] For example, the electronic device is a smart phone, and the vibration sensing object is the user's palm. For each holding posture for the mobile phone obtained in advance, the pressure values ​​of each pressure sensing unit when multiple palms of different sizes use the holding posture can be collected in advance, so as to obtain the pressure generation position when multiple palms of different sizes use the holding posture in advance. For the same holding posture, the pressure generation position is different due to different palm sizes. For example, if the setting method of the pressure sensing unit is as follows: Figure 4As an example, for Figure 5A For the holding posture in the example, for people with smaller palms, only pressure sensing unit A senses the pressure value, that is, the pressure generating position is the setting position of pressure sensing unit A. For people with larger palms, both pressure sensing unit A and pressure sensing unit B can sense the pressure value, that is, the pressure generating position is the setting position of pressure sensing unit A and pressure sensing unit B. Therefore, for the same holding posture, there may be multiple second mapping relationships. For example, for Figure 5A In the holding posture in the embodiment, the minimum palm area S1 when the pressure sensing unit B senses the pressure can be collected. In this way, two mapping relationships can be established: the palm area is less than S1 and the pressure sensing unit A senses the pressure value corresponding to the holding posture 5A, and the palm area is greater than or equal to S1 and the pressure sensing unit A and the pressure sensing unit B sense the pressure value corresponding to the holding posture 5A. In the second mapping relationship table, the vibration sensing object size and the pressure generation position jointly determine the holding posture.

[0079] After the second mapping relationship table is determined in advance, the current holding posture can be determined according to the holding posture in a second mapping relationship when the target vibration sensing object size and the target pressure generation position jointly satisfy the vibration sensing object size range and the pressure generation position in a second mapping relationship.

[0080] Exemplarily, another specific implementation of step S320 may include: detecting a current posture of the electronic device according to a gyroscope in the electronic device, the current posture including a horizontal screen or a vertical screen; determining the current holding posture of the electronic device by the target vibration sensing object according to a third mapping relationship table based on the current posture of the electronic device and the pressure value of each of the pressure sensing units; wherein the third mapping relationship table is determined in a manner including: pre-collecting the pressure value of each of the pressure sensing units when different vibration sensing objects take different holding postures for the electronic device when the electronic device is in different postures; and establishing a third mapping relationship table between the posture of the electronic device and the pressure value of each pressure sensing unit and the holding posture according to the collection result.

[0081] Continuing with the example that the electronic device is a smart phone and the vibration sensing object is the user's palm, for each holding posture in the horizontal screen posture and each holding posture in the vertical screen state, the pressure value of each pressure sensing unit is collected when different users' palms use the holding posture in the posture. Similarly, because different users use different holding strengths when using the same holding posture in the same posture, such as some hold tighter and some hold looser, and the palm sizes of different users are also different, the pressure values ​​detected by each pressure detection unit for the same holding posture in the same posture may be different. Therefore, for the same holding posture in the same posture, the pressure value range of each pressure sensing unit and the corresponding relationship between the electronic device posture and the holding posture can be established based on the pressure values ​​of each pressure sensing unit when different users use the holding posture in the posture. Based on the pressure value range of each pressure sensing unit and the corresponding relationship between the electronic device posture and the holding posture established under different holding postures, the third mapping relationship table between the pressure value of each pressure sensing unit and the electronic device posture and the holding posture can be determined.

[0082] After determining the third mapping relationship table, the electronic device posture and the pressure value range of the corresponding pressure sensing unit in each mapping relationship in the third mapping relationship table can be matched according to the current posture of the electronic device and the current pressure value sensed by each pressure sensing unit. When the electronic device posture included in a certain mapping relationship and the current posture of the electronic device, as well as the pressure value range of each pressure sensing unit and the current pressure value of the corresponding pressure sensing unit are all matched successfully, the holding posture in the mapping relationship is determined as the current holding posture.

[0083] Of course, in an exemplary embodiment, data can also be collected in advance to establish a mapping relationship between the electronic device posture, the pressure value of each pressure sensing unit, the pressure generation position, the size of the vibration sensing object and the holding posture. That is, when the electronic device posture, the pressure value of each pressure sensing unit, the pressure generation position and the size of the vibration sensing object simultaneously meet the conditions of a certain mapping relationship, the current holding posture is determined according to the holding posture in the mapping relationship; the current holding posture can also be determined only when the pressure generation position meets the conditions in a certain mapping relationship, and this exemplary embodiment does not make special restrictions on this.

[0084] For example, Figure 7 A flowchart showing another method for determining the current holding posture in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 7, the method may include steps S710 to S740. Wherein: in step S710, the current posture of the electronic device detected by the gyroscope in the electronic device is obtained; in step S720, the current pressure value of each pressure sensing unit is obtained; in step S730, the pressure weight of each pressure sensing unit is determined according to the current pressure value of each pressure sensing unit; in step S740, the current holding posture is determined according to the current posture of the electronic device and the pressure weight of each pressure sensing unit.

[0085] For example, the pressure values ​​sensed by each pressure sensing unit of the electronic device under different holding postures can be collected in advance, the pressure values ​​sensed by each pressure sensing unit can be sorted, and the pressure weight of each pressure sensing unit can be determined according to the sorting result, that is, the pressure weight of the pressure sensing unit in the front order is greater than the pressure weight of the pressure sensing unit in the back order. For example, the pressure sensing unit is set in a manner such as Figure 4 Taking the shown example, it can be determined that the pressure weight of the first pressure sensing unit in the sorting result is 0.4, the pressure weight of the second pressure sensing unit is 0.3, the pressure weight of the third pressure sensing unit is 0.2, and the pressure weight of the third pressure sensing unit is 0.1, thereby establishing a mapping relationship table between the electronic device posture and the pressure weights of the pressure sensing units and the holding posture, and then matching the current posture of the electronic device with the electronic device posture in the mapping relationship table, matching the pressure weights of each pressure sensing unit with the pressure weights of each pressure sensing unit in the mapping relationship table, and determining the current holding posture based on the holding postures in all successfully matched mapping relationships.

[0086] In step S330, the contact area between the target vibration sensing object and the electronic device is determined according to the current holding posture.

[0087] For example, Figure 8 A flow chart of a method for determining a contact area according to a current holding posture in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 8 , the method may include steps S810 to S820.

[0088] in:

[0089] In step S810, according to the current holding posture, the target contact area ratio corresponding to the current holding posture is searched in the fourth mapping relationship table.

[0090] In an exemplary embodiment, the target contact area ratio is used to indicate the ratio of the contact area between the target vibration sensing object and the electronic device to the total area of ​​the current vibration sensing object in the current holding posture.

[0091] In an exemplary embodiment, the method for determining the fourth mapping relationship table includes: when vibration sensing objects of different sizes adopt different holding postures for the electronic device, pre-collecting the ratio of the contact area between the vibration sensing object and the electronic device to the total area of ​​the vibration sensing object to obtain the contact area ratio; based on the collected contact area ratios under different holding postures, establishing a fourth mapping relationship table between the contact area ratio and the holding posture.

[0092] Taking the electronic device as a smart phone and the vibration sensing object as the user's palm as an example, for each holding posture obtained in advance, the contact area between the palm and the edge of the mobile phone shell, that is, the frame, when different users hold the mobile phone using the holding posture can be collected in advance, and then the area of ​​the contact area is measured. According to the ratio of the area of ​​the contact area to the total area of ​​the user's palm, the contact area ratio of the user is determined, and the mean, median or mode of the contact area ratio of the middle 85% of users is selected to determine the contact area ratio under the holding posture. According to the contact area ratios under different holding postures collected in advance, a fourth mapping relationship table between the contact area ratio and the holding posture is established.

[0093] For example, Fig.9A and Fig. 9B Shown separately Figure 5A The contact area and Figure 5B The contact area corresponding to the holding posture in Fig.9A and Fig. 9B The black area in the middle palm is the contact area between the palm and the mobile phone frame in the left holding posture, and the area of ​​the black area is the contact area between the palm and the mobile phone frame in this holding posture.

[0094] After the fourth mapping relationship table is determined in advance, in actual use, the contact area ratio corresponding to the current holding posture can be searched in the fourth mapping relationship table according to the determined current holding posture, and it can be determined as the target contact area ratio.

[0095] In step S820, the contact area between the target vibration sensing object and the electronic device is determined based on the total area of ​​the target vibration sensing object and the target contact area ratio.

[0096] In an exemplary implementation, the method for determining the total area of ​​the target vibration sensing object may refer to the method for determining the target size of the target vibration sensing object described above, which will not be described in detail herein.

[0097] For example, after determining the target contact area ratio in the fourth mapping relationship table, the total area of ​​the target vibration sensing object collected and stored in advance can be obtained, and the contact area between the target vibration sensing object and the electronic device can be determined based on the product of the total area of ​​the target vibration sensing object and the target contact area ratio.

[0098] For an electronic device with a vibrator set at the edge of the shell, the vibration sensing at the edge of the shell is the most sensitive, so the vibration intensity can be adjusted by the contact area between the vibration sensing medium and the edge of the shell of the electronic device. Through the above steps S310 to S330, the contact area between the target vibration sensing object and the edge of the shell of the electronic device can be quickly determined based on the holding posture, thereby avoiding the problem of directly detecting the contact area requiring more hardware equipment support and improving the efficiency of contact area determination.

[0099] It should be noted that the contact area in the present disclosure is not measured, but calculated through the above-mentioned steps S310 to S320. In other words, the contact area in the present disclosure can be understood as a calculated contact area value, which has a certain difference with the actual contact area between the target vibration sensing object and the electronic device, but this difference is calculated with reference to the actual contact area of ​​many vibration sensing objects and electronic devices. For example, when determining the contact area ratio under different holding postures, the actual contact area of ​​different vibration sensing objects with electronic devices under different holding postures is measured, thereby determining the mapping relationship, so this difference is relatively small. And the calculated contact area and the actual contact area are in a positive proportional relationship, that is, the larger the actual contact area, the larger the calculated contact area must be, and the smaller the actual contact area, the smaller the calculated contact must be. Therefore, the contact area calculated in the present disclosure can also reflect the actual contact area size of different target vibration sensing objects and electronic devices to a large extent, and can also reflect the actual contact area size of the same target vibration sensing object with the electronic device under different holding postures. In other words, adjusting the vibration intensity according to the calculated contact area can also improve the accuracy of vibration intensity determination.

[0100] Continue to refer Figure 2 In step S220, the vibration intensity of the vibrator is adjusted according to the contact area to determine the current vibration intensity of the vibrator.

[0101] Exemplarily, a specific implementation of step S220 may include: determining a vibration intensity scaling ratio based on a first ratio between the contact area and a reference contact area corresponding to the target vibration sensing object in the reference holding posture; based on the vibration intensity scaling ratio, adjusting a preset vibration intensity of the vibrator to determine a current vibration intensity of the vibrator, wherein the preset vibration intensity is determined based on a vibration intensity comfort value of the target vibration sensing object in the reference holding posture.

[0102] In an exemplary embodiment, a method for determining a reference contact area corresponding to the target vibration sensing object in a reference holding posture includes: establishing a fifth mapping relationship between the size of the vibration sensing object and the reference contact area under the reference holding posture based on pre-collected contact areas of vibration sensing objects of different sizes with the electronic device under the reference holding posture; and determining the reference contact area corresponding to the target vibration sensing object in the reference holding posture based on the size of the target vibration sensing object and according to the fifth mapping relationship.

[0103] The reference holding posture may include the holding posture most used by users in a preliminary survey. Of course, the reference holding posture may also be determined according to user needs, and this exemplary embodiment does not specifically limit this.

[0104] For example, the contact areas between vibration sensing objects of different sizes and the electronic device when the electronic device is held using a reference holding posture can be collected in advance, thereby establishing a fifth mapping relationship between the size of the vibration sensing object and the reference contact area based on the collected contact areas between the vibration sensing objects of different sizes and the electronic device in the reference holding posture.

[0105] The fifth mapping relationship may be a fifth mapping relationship table between the size range of the vibration sensing object and the reference contact area, such as the mapping relationship table may include: when the palm area is greater than S0 and less than or equal to S1, the reference contact area is A1; when the palm area is greater than S1 and less than or equal to S2, the reference contact area is B; when the palm area is greater than S2 and less than or equal to S3, the reference contact area is C, etc. The fifth mapping relationship may also be a functional relationship between the size of the vibration sensing object and the reference contact area, such as fitting a relationship curve between the size of the vibration sensing object and the reference contact area based on the collected data, thereby determining the fifth mapping relationship based on the functional relationship corresponding to the relationship curve, such as the functional relationship corresponding to the fitted relationship curve is f=6x+5, where x is the size of the vibration sensing object and f is the reference contact area.

[0106] After the fifth mapping relationship is determined in advance, the size of the target vibration sensing object is matched with the size in the fifth mapping relationship table according to the acquired size of the target vibration sensing object, and the reference contact area of ​​the target vibration sensing object in the reference holding posture is determined according to the reference contact area corresponding to the successfully matched size; the size of the target vibration sensing object can also be substituted into the functional relationship corresponding to the fifth mapping relationship, and the reference contact area of ​​the target vibration sensing object in the reference holding posture is determined according to the output value of the function.

[0107] In an exemplary embodiment, the method for determining the preset vibration intensity includes: obtaining a target size of the target vibration sensing object; and determining, according to the target size, a preset vibration intensity corresponding to the target vibration sensing object based on a sixth mapping relationship between the vibration sensing object size and the preset vibration intensity.

[0108] Among them, the method for determining the sixth mapping relationship includes: pre-collecting the vibration intensity comfort values ​​of vibration sensing objects of different sizes for the electronic device in a reference holding posture; for each size of vibration sensing objects, sorting the collected vibration intensity comfort values, and determining the vibration intensity comfort values ​​whose sorting order is within a preset sequence range; for each size of vibration sensing objects, determining the preset vibration intensity value corresponding to each size of vibration sensing objects according to the vibration intensity comfort values ​​whose sorting order is within the preset sequence range; and establishing the sixth mapping relationship between the size of the vibration sensing object and the preset vibration intensity according to the preset vibration intensity value corresponding to the vibration sensing object of each size.

[0109] Taking the example that the electronic device is a smart phone and the vibration sensing object is the user's palm, ergonomic data of the entire population can be collected in advance, and the vibration intensity comfort values ​​of a certain number of users with different hand areas under a reference holding posture can be measured. The collected population can be stratified according to the hand area to obtain stratification results for different hand area ranges. For the hand area of ​​each stratification, a representative part is selected, such as the vibration intensity comfort value of the middle 85% of the population, to determine the preset vibration intensity comfort value of the stratified population.

[0110] For example, for the vibration intensity comfort values ​​collected for each layer of hand area, the vibration intensity comfort values ​​can be sorted, and the vibration intensity comfort values ​​corresponding to the hand areas in the middle 85% of the sorting order are selected, that is, 85% is the preset order range. For example, for the hand area of ​​the first layer, the vibration intensity comfort values ​​of 100 people are collected, and the 100 vibration intensity comfort values ​​are sorted, and a total of 85 vibration intensity comfort values ​​with a sorting order range from the 7th to the 92nd are selected. According to any statistical data such as the mean, median, mode, etc. of these 85 vibration intensity comfort values, the preset vibration intensity value corresponding to the hand area of ​​the first layer is determined. Thus, according to the preset vibration intensity values ​​corresponding to different hand area layers, a sixth mapping relationship between the hand area range and the preset vibration intensity is established. For example, the sixth mapping relationship may include: when the hand area is greater than S0 and less than or equal to S1, the preset vibration intensity is 67; when the hand area is greater than S1 and less than or equal to S2, the preset vibration intensity is 68; when the hand area is greater than S2 and less than or equal to S3, the preset vibration intensity is 69, etc.

[0111] In this way, the target size of the target vibration sensing object is matched with the size range in the sixth mapping relationship to determine the size range to which the target size belongs. According to the preset vibration intensity corresponding to the size range to which the target size belongs, the preset vibration intensity corresponding to the target vibration sensing object can be obtained.

[0112] For example, after determining the contact area S corresponding to the current holding posture 当 , and the reference contact area S of the target vibration sensing object in the reference holding posture 参 In the case of 参 Contact area S 当 The vibration intensity scaling ratio can be determined by the following formula (1):

[0113]

[0114] After the vibration intensity scaling ratio is determined, the current vibration intensity of the vibrator can be determined according to the product of the vibration intensity scaling ratio and the preset vibration intensity corresponding to the target vibration sensing object, so as to adjust the vibration intensity of the vibrator according to the current vibration intensity.

[0115] In an exemplary embodiment, the electronic device is configured with four pressure sensing units, and the four pressure sensing units are respectively arranged at four sides of the edge of the housing of the electronic device. Figure 4 The pressure sensing unit is set as shown. Based on this, Fig.10A flow chart showing another method for adjusting vibration intensity according to contact area in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Fig.10 , the method may include steps S1010 to S1030. Wherein:

[0116] In step S1010 , a preset vibration intensity of the vibrator is adjusted according to the contact area to determine a candidate vibration intensity of the vibrator.

[0117] For example, the vibration intensity scaling ratio can be determined based on the ratio between the contact area in the current holding posture and the reference contact area, and then the candidate vibration intensity is determined based on the product of the vibration intensity scaling ratio and the preset vibration intensity corresponding to the target vibration sensing object.

[0118] In step S1020, the pressure value of each of the pressure sensing units is obtained, the pressure values ​​of the pressure sensing units are sorted, and the target positions of the pressure sensing units corresponding to the pressure values ​​in the first N positions are determined according to the sorting result, where N is an integer greater than 0 and less than 4.

[0119] The pressure sensing unit is set as Figure 4 Taking the method shown as an example, where N is 2, the pressure values ​​of each pressure sensing unit can be sorted to determine the target position, which can be understood as the main location where pressure occurs.

[0120] In step S1030, a first preset adjustment coefficient corresponding to the target position is obtained, and the candidate vibration intensity is adjusted according to the first preset adjustment coefficient to determine the current vibration intensity of the vibrator.

[0121] For example, for different settings of the vibrator, when the user adopts different holding postures, if the main location of pressure is consistent with the setting location of the vibrator, such as the main location of pressure is on the left and right sides of the phone, and the vibrator is also set on the left and right sides of the phone, the user is more sensitive to the vibrator. At this time, the candidate vibration intensity can be multiplied by a coefficient less than 1, and the candidate vibration intensity can be appropriately reduced to obtain the current vibration intensity; if the main location of pressure is inconsistent with the setting location of the vibrator, such as the main location of pressure is on the upper and lower sides of the phone, and the vibrator is set on the left and right sides of the phone, the user is less sensitive to the vibrator. At this time, the candidate vibration intensity can be appropriately increased to obtain the current vibration intensity. In this way, users can have the best vibration intensity experience under different holding conditions.

[0122] Therefore, the first preset adjustment coefficient corresponding to the target position can be determined based on the target position and the setting position of the vibrator. For example, if the target position and the setting position of the vibrator are consistent, the first preset adjustment coefficient is less than 1; if the target position and the setting position of the vibrator are inconsistent, the first preset adjustment coefficient is greater than 1.

[0123] In an exemplary embodiment, adjusting the vibration intensity of the vibrator according to the contact area to determine the current vibration intensity of the vibrator may also include: adjusting a preset vibration intensity of the vibrator according to the contact area to determine a candidate vibration intensity of the vibrator; obtaining a pressure value of each of the pressure sensing units, and when the pressure value of the pressure sensing unit meets a preset condition, obtaining a second preset adjustment coefficient corresponding to the preset condition; and adjusting the candidate vibration intensity according to the second preset adjustment coefficient to determine the current vibration intensity of the vibrator.

[0124] For example, as mentioned above, different users hold the electronic device with different strengths. Users who hold the device tightly are more sensitive to vibrations, while users who hold the device loosely are less sensitive to vibrations. Therefore, the tightness of the grip can be determined based on the pressure value of each pressure sensing unit, and the candidate vibration intensities can be adjusted based on the different tightness to obtain the current vibration intensity. For example, the preset conditions include that the maximum pressure value or the average pressure value of each pressure sensing unit is greater than the first preset value. At this time, it can be considered that the user's grip force is large, and the corresponding second preset adjustment coefficient can be less than 1, that is, because it is more sensitive, the candidate vibration intensity can be multiplied by a value less than 1, and the candidate vibration intensity can be appropriately reduced to obtain the best vibration intensity experience value. The preset conditions may also include that the maximum pressure value or the average pressure value of each pressure sensing unit is less than the second preset value. At this time, it can be considered that the user's grip force is small and he is not sensitive to vibration sensing. Then the corresponding second preset adjustment coefficient can be greater than 1, that is, the candidate vibration intensity is multiplied by a value greater than 1, and the candidate vibration intensity is appropriately increased to obtain the current vibration intensity, so as to obtain the best vibration intensity experience value.

[0125] In an exemplary embodiment, as mentioned above, the electronic device in the present disclosure includes a wearable electronic device. In the case where the electronic device is a wearable electronic device, the target vibration sensing object includes the arm of the wearable electronic device user. Based on this, Fig.11 A schematic diagram showing a flow chart of a method for adjusting vibration intensity of a wearable electronic device in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, with reference to Fig.11 , the method may include steps S1110 to S1140. Wherein:

[0126] In step S1110 , a preset vibration intensity of the vibrator is adjusted according to the contact area to determine a candidate vibration intensity of the vibrator.

[0127] The specific implementation of step S1110 may refer to the above-mentioned step S1010, which will not be described in detail here.

[0128] In step S1120, a target wearing mode selected for the wearable electronic device is obtained.

[0129] In an exemplary embodiment, the target wearing mode includes wearing on the outside of the arm or wearing on the inside of the arm. For example, when using the wearable electronic device, the user can choose to wear it on the inside of the arm or on the outside of the arm in the wearing mode setting, so as to wear the wearable electronic device according to the selected wearing mode. Therefore, the target wearing mode selected by the user can be obtained from the wearing mode setting.

[0130] In step S1130, a third preset adjustment coefficient corresponding to the target wearing style is obtained.

[0131] For example, the mapping relationship between different target wearing modes and the third preset adjustment coefficient can be predetermined. For example, when worn on the inside of the arm, it is more sensitive to vibration sensing, and the corresponding third preset adjustment coefficient can be less than 1; when worn on the outside of the arm, it is more sensitive to vibration sensing, and the corresponding third preset adjustment coefficient can be greater than 1.

[0132] In step S1140 , the candidate vibration intensity is adjusted according to a third preset adjustment coefficient to determine the current vibration intensity of the vibrator.

[0133] For example, the current vibration intensity of the vibrator may be determined based on the product of the third preset adjustment coefficient and the candidate vibration intensity, so that the vibrator outputs the current vibration intensity, thereby providing a vibration prompt or feedback for the vibration triggering event based on the current vibration intensity.

[0134] In an exemplary embodiment, when the electronic device is a wearable electronic device, such as a smart watch, a tension force sensing device can be configured on the strap of the smart watch. The tighter the strap is, the tighter it is worn, and the watch body should be in closer contact with the skin. Then, the contact area between the arm and the dial of the smart watch under different tensions is collected in advance, so as to establish the seventh mapping relationship between the tension and the contact area of ​​the dial. Then, according to the tension currently collected by the tension force sensing device, the contact area between the arm and the dial of the smart watch is determined based on the seventh mapping relationship.

[0135] For example, the electronic device is a smart phone and the vibration sensing object is the user's palm. Fig.12A flow chart showing a method for adjusting the vibration intensity of another electronic device in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Fig.12 , the method may include the steps.

[0136] In step S1210, the real-time vibration intensity automatic adjustment function is turned on; in step S1220, it is determined whether the user's hand area data has been recorded, if not, go to step S1230, if yes, go to step S1250; in step S1230, guide the user to measure the hand area data and store the measurement results; in step S1240, according to the mapping relationship between the hand area and the preset vibration intensity, determine the preset vibration intensity A corresponding to the hand area entered by the user; in step S1250, detect the pressure value of the pressure sensing unit in real time to determine the current holding posture according to the detected pressure value; in step S1260, determine the current contact area ratio B according to the current holding posture; in step S1270, determine the current contact area according to the contact area ratio B, and determine the vibration intensity scaling ratio C based on the current contact area; in step S1280, adjust the preset vibration intensity according to the vibration intensity scaling ratio C to obtain the current vibration intensity.

[0137] For example, when the user enters the system vibration setting, it is first determined whether the user has recorded the hand data. When the user has not recorded the hand data, the system enters step S1230 and step S1240 to perform initial settings. In step S120, the ToF camera in the mobile phone camera module is used to measure the user's palm size and calculate the palm area. In step S1240, the vibration intensity A corresponding to the currently measured palm area is determined based on the predetermined mapping relationship between the palm areas of different sizes and the preset vibration intensity. When it is determined that the user has recorded the hand data, the system enters step S1250 to step S1280 to adjust the vibration intensity in real time. When using a mobile phone, the user may hold the phone in different postures, such as one hand, two hands, etc. The contact area between the hand and the mobile phone is different in each holding posture, and the contact area is highly correlated with the vibration intensity, so the contact area of ​​different holding postures can be monitored in real time.

[0138] The detection of the contact area can be achieved using the pressure sensing unit of the mobile phone frame. When using different holding postures, as long as you know which pressure sensing units in the frames detect the pressure, you can use the mobile phone gyroscope to determine the horizontal and vertical screen conditions to deduce the user's holding posture. Based on the mapping relationship between the holding posture and the contact area ratio, the target contact area ratio corresponding to the current holding posture can be determined. The contact area corresponding to the current holding posture can be obtained based on the target contact area ratio and the entered user palm area. Divide the contact area corresponding to the current holding posture by the reference contact area corresponding to the reference holding posture to obtain the vibration intensity scaling ratio. The current vibration intensity under the current holding posture is obtained by multiplying the preset vibration intensity and the vibration intensity scaling ratio.

[0139] Different users have different degrees of vibration intensity. The human body's external vibration stimulation is mainly received by Pacinian corpuscles under the skin. The total number of Pacinian corpuscles distributed on the palm skin of adults is generally similar. When using electronic devices, the contact area between the electronic device and the palm affects the effect of the vibration stimulation transmission of the electronic device. Therefore, the palm size and real-time contact area are two key factors that determine the vibration intensity.

[0140] In the present disclosure, the contact area ratio can be determined according to the posture of holding the mobile phone, the contact area can be determined according to the contact area ratio and the palm size, and then the vibration intensity can be adjusted based on the contact area. This can better provide a vibration experience of appropriate strength according to different usage scenarios and improve the accuracy of vibration intensity determination.

[0141] It should be noted that the above figures are only schematic illustrations of the processes included in the method according to the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, and are not intended to be limiting. It is easy to understand that the processes shown in the above figures do not indicate or limit the time sequence of these processes. In addition, it is also easy to understand that these processes can be performed synchronously or asynchronously, for example, in multiple modules.
