[0020] In order to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, a specific embodiment is used below for description, and only the parts related to the embodiment of the present invention are shown.

[0021] Embodiment 1: like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present invention provides a touch remote controller for remotely controlling a remotely controlled device, wherein the remotely controlled device supports both infrared communication and Bluetooth communication, so as to realize two control modes of the touch remote controller; the touch remote controller includes an MCU controller, a touch detection module, a backlight button module, a Bluetooth module, a coding transmission module and a touch area 1; as shown Figure 1 As shown, the MCU controller, touch detection module, backlight button module, Bluetooth module and encoding transmission module constitute the internal circuit of the touch remote control, which is arranged inside the upper part of the touch remote control; Figure 2 The figure shows the overall structure of the touch remote control. The upper surface of the touch remote control is the touch area 1, where the user can perform touch or press operations. The lower part is provided with a battery for powering the touch remote control. The touch detection module is used to detect the touch coordinates on the touch area 1 and report the touch coordinates to the MCU controller. The MCU controller controls the touch remote control to switch to the key mode or the mouse mode according to the touch coordinates. If the touch mode is switched to the key mode, the MCU controller remotely controls the remotely controlled device through the encoding transmission module, and controls the backlight key module to display virtual keys on the touch area 1, so as to obtain the user input commands through the virtual keys. If the mouse mode is switched to the mouse mode, the MCU controller remotely controls the remotely controlled device through the Bluetooth module.

[0022] The touch remote control provided in this embodiment is applied to wireless remote sensing devices, such as televisions, computers and other devices with displays and systems, and is used to control interactive operations such as application switching of wireless remote sensing devices; this embodiment is a pressure touch wireless remote control without physical buttons, and is provided with two remote control modes. In the button mode, communication is performed with the remote sensing device through the encoding transmission module, and the user can realize the button remote control function by pressing the virtual button of the backlight button module; in the mouse mode, communication is performed with the remote sensing device through the Bluetooth module, and the user can realize the touch remote control function by performing touch gestures on the touch area 1. For example, if the user slides the finger on the touch area 1, the cursor on the remote sensing device also moves accordingly; this embodiment not only realizes the button function of the remote control, but also realizes the touchpad function of the remote control, enriches the types of human-computer interaction, and improves the user experience.

[0023] As an optional implementation, in the key mode, the MCU controller communicates with the remotely controlled device by infrared through the coding transmission module, and the MCU controller sends the control instruction code to the remotely controlled device through the coding transmission module to remotely control the remotely controlled device. At the same time, the MCU module controls the backlight key module to display a virtual key on the touch area 1. The backlight key module is provided with a function keyboard silk screen, and an LED light is provided at the bottom of the touch area 1. When the key mode is entered, the LED light is triggered to light up, and a virtual key will be displayed. The user can press the virtual key to remotely control the remote sensing device. If the user presses a virtual key of a certain function, the touch detection module detects the touch coordinates corresponding to the key and reports it to the MCU controller. The MCU controller sends the corresponding control instruction code to the receiving device such as the TV set and the TV projector through the coding transmission module. After receiving the instruction code, these devices perform the corresponding key function, such as pressing the volume key to adjust the volume, pressing the power key or the power off key to turn on or off, or using the input box typing keyboard to facilitate typing search functions, etc.

[0024] As an optional implementation, in mouse mode, the touch remote controller communicates with the remotely controlled device via the Bluetooth module; the MCU controller sends cursor data to the display system of the remotely controlled device via the Bluetooth module to control the movement of the cursor on the display system. In mouse mode, the touch area 1 is equivalent to a touchpad, and the user can perform gesture operations such as sliding and clicking on it to control the cursor on the display system, thereby realizing human-computer interaction. For example, the user slides on the touch area 1 to control the cursor to slide on the display system. When the cursor is on an application, the user can double-click the touch area 1 to open the application.

[0025] As an optional implementation, the touch remote control also includes a pressure detection module and a vibration module; the pressure detection module is used to detect the pressure value generated when the finger applies pressure on the touch area 1, and transmit the pressure value directly to the MCU controller, or transmit it to the MCU controller through the touch detection module, and the MCU controller controls the vibration module to vibrate in the area where the pressure is generated according to the pressure value. If the user presses the power button hard, the pressure detection module detects this pressure value and sends it to the MCU controller through the touch detection module. The MCU controller controls the vibration module to vibrate at the position of the power button. The user feels the vibration, indicating that the power button has been successfully pressed; the pressure detection module and the vibration module can generate richer interactions with the user, further improving the user experience.

[0026] It should be noted that the pressure detection module and the touch detection module can work at the same time to jointly realize the touch remote control function of the remote control. For example, when the user wants to switch between the key mode and the mouse mode, the pressure detection module and the touch detection module respectively detect the touch coordinates of the pressure value, and then the touch detection module reports the detected touch coordinates to the MCU controller, and also sends the pressure value detected by the pressure detection module to the MCU controller (the pressure detection module can also directly send the pressure value to the MCU controller, which can save the transmission path and power consumption). The MCU controller recognizes it as a switching operation only when it receives the touch coordinates and pressure values ​​at the same time. At the same time, the MCU controller controls the vibration module to give the user vibration feedback to remind the user that the switching operation is successful; adding the pressure value detection at the same time as the touch coordinate detection can effectively prevent accidental touches.

[0027] As an optional implementation, the touch detection module detects the capacitance change value of the mutual capacitance sensor array on the touch area 1, calculates the touch coordinates of the finger through the capacitance change value, and then reports the touch coordinates to the MCU controller, and transmits the pressure value received from the pressure detection module to the MCU controller in real time; if the pressure value is greater than the preset down-pressing vibration threshold or less than the preset up-lifting vibration threshold, the MCU controller sends a vibration signal to the vibration module to make the vibration module vibrate in the area where the pressure is generated. A range interval from the down-pressing vibration threshold to the up-lifting vibration threshold is set, and only when the pressure value pressed by the user is within this threshold interval is it considered that there is a pressing action, thereby generating vibration to prevent accidental touch.

[0028] As an optional implementation, the touch remote control also includes a power detection module, a warning light and a battery connected to the MCU controller. The power detection module is used to detect the power of the battery; the MCU controller controls the power to periodically collect the power of the battery through this module, and then controls the change of the warning light according to the power to display the current power status of the battery. For example, when the power is greater than 40%, the warning light is green; when the power is detected to be less than 40% but greater than 20%, the warning light is controlled to turn yellow to remind the user that the touch remote control is low in power; when the power is detected to be less than 20%, the warning light is controlled to turn red to remind the user to replace the battery or charge it.

[0029] The embodiment is only a specific example and does not represent only one implementation mode of the present invention.

[0030] Embodiment 2: The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that: a control method of a touch remote controller is applied to a touch remote controller described in any one of the first embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the control method of the touch remote control includes: S1, receiving the touch coordinates reported by the touch detection module; the touch coordinates are the capacitance change values ​​detected by the touch detection module in the touch area 1, and are calculated based on the capacitance change values; S2, determining the switching of the control mode based on the touch coordinates; S3, if the control mode is switched from the mouse mode to the key mode, the remote control device is remotely controlled through the coding transmission module, and the backlight key module is controlled to display a virtual key on the touch area 1 to obtain the user input command through the virtual key; S4, if the control mode is switched from the key mode to the mouse mode, the remote control device is remotely controlled through the Bluetooth module. In the key mode, the user interacts with the remote control device through the virtual key; in the mouse mode, it is used to interact with the remote control device through touch gesture operations in the touch area 1. The method of this embodiment is not limited to the traditional remote control that can only use keys to control remote sensing devices. Users can choose their favorite interaction mode according to personal preferences or convenience. This embodiment is applied to the touch remote control provided in Embodiment 1. The user can freely switch the remote control mode of the remote control according to personal preferences or habits, and is no longer limited to using the button functions of the remote control. The remote control device can also be remotely controlled by touch sliding, which enriches the types of human-computer interaction and greatly improves the user experience.

[0031] As an optional implementation, the touch area 1 includes an infrared area 2 and a Bluetooth area 3; Figure 4As shown, step S2, determining the switching of the control mode according to the touch coordinates, includes: S21, when the control mode is in the key mode, detecting whether the touch coordinates on the touch area 1 slide from the infrared zone 2 to the Bluetooth zone 3, and the stay time of the touch coordinates in the Bluetooth zone 3 is greater than the preset time; if so, switching from the key mode to the mouse mode; otherwise, continuing in the key mode; S22, when the touch remote control is in the mouse mode, detecting whether the touch coordinates on the touch area 1 slide from the Bluetooth zone 3 to the infrared zone 2, and the stay time of the touch coordinates in the Bluetooth zone 3 is greater than the preset time; if so, switching from the mouse mode to the key mode; otherwise, continuing in the mouse mode.

[0032] As an optional implementation, the control method of the touch remote control can also be implemented by detecting pressure values, including: receiving touch coordinates and pressure values ​​reported by the touch detection module; the touch coordinates are the capacitance change values ​​of the touch area 1 detected by the touch detection module, and are calculated based on the capacitance change values; the pressure value is detected by the pressure detection module; according to the touch coordinates and the pressure value, the control mode switching is determined; if the touch coordinates are detected from the infrared zone 2 to the Bluetooth zone 3 or the Bluetooth zone 3 to the infrared zone 2, and the pressure values ​​on the infrared zone 2 and the Bluetooth zone 3 are detected at the same time, the key mode or the mouse mode is switched; if the touch coordinates are detected, but the pressure values ​​on the infrared zone 2 and the Bluetooth zone 3 are not detected, the key mode or the mouse mode is not switched. In addition to the detection of the pressure value, the user's accidental touch behavior can be effectively prevented.

[0033] The method of this embodiment can also control the working mode of the touch remote controller of the first embodiment, and the working mode includes an active mode, a low power mode and a sleep mode; Figure 5 As shown, the method further includes: S10, when the touch remote control is in the active mode, detecting whether the touch data on the touch area 1 meets the low power consumption condition; S20, if the touch data on the touch area 1 meets the low power consumption condition, controlling the touch remote control to enter the low power consumption mode; S30, if the touch data on the touch area 1 does not meet the low power consumption condition, identifying whether the touch data on the touch area 1 meets the sleep condition; S40, if the touch data on the touch area 1 meets the sleep condition, controlling the touch remote control to enter the sleep mode; S50, if the touch data on the touch area 1 does not meet the sleep condition, controlling the touch remote control to continue in the active mode. This method can reduce power consumption and extend battery life.

[0034] As an optional implementation, step S10, detecting whether the touch data on the touch area 1 meets the low power consumption condition, includes: collecting self-capacitance data, mutual-capacitance data and pressure data on the touch area 1; if there is self-capacitance data greater than the self-capacitance threshold, mutual-capacitance data greater than the mutual-capacitance threshold or pressure data greater than the pressure threshold for a continuous period of T1, the touch data on the touch area 1 does not meet the low power consumption condition; otherwise, the touch data on the touch area 1 meets the low power consumption condition. When a finger touches or slides on the touch area 1 of the remote control, the touch area 1 will produce capacitance changes and pressure changes, so that self-capacitance data, mutual-capacitance data and pressure data can be collected. As long as one of them exceeds the preset threshold, it means that there is a touch action, and the remote control does not meet the low power consumption condition and cannot enter the low power consumption mode to avoid affecting the normal use of the user.

[0035] As an optional implementation, step S30, identifying whether the touch data on the touch area 1 meets the sleep condition, includes: when it is detected that there is sliding data from the starting position 4 to the ending position 5 on the touch area 1, and the pressure value from the starting position 4 to the ending position 5 is greater than the sleep threshold, then entering the sleep mode. The sliding data is the capacitance data generated by the sliding of a finger on the touch area 1, such as Figure 2 As shown, the touch area 1 is provided with a starting position 4 and an ending position 5. When in an active state, the user can slide a finger from the starting position 4 to the ending position 5 to generate a sleep gesture. When the sleep gesture is detected, the MCU controller enters the sleep mode. In order to avoid the sleep gesture caused by accidental touch, it is also necessary to detect that the pressure value from the starting position 4 to the ending position 5 is greater than the sleep threshold. The sleep mode is entered only when both conditions are met.

[0036] Active mode is a high-performance working state of the remote control, which is generally a real-time response state when a finger touches it; low-power mode is a low-power state of the remote control. This mode only scans the self-capacitance channel and obtains self-capacitance data, and reduces the scanning cycle, which can reduce power consumption and enhance battery life; sleep mode is the sleep state of the remote control. In this state, self-capacitance and mutual-capacitance scanning are all turned off, and only the global detection of touch panel pressure is enabled. The pressure detection cycle is set to be greater than or equal to 25HZ and less than or equal to 50HZ. When in this detection cycle, the remote control switches from sleep mode to active state smoothly.

[0037] Low power mode is a low power touch wake-up working state. This state only scans the self-capacitance data to exit the low power mode and enter the active mode. You can also enter the sleep mode in low power mode. When in low power mode, determine whether the starting value of the self-capacitance data reaches the threshold for entering the active state. If the threshold is reached, enter the active mode. If not, calculate whether the T2 time is reached from the time of entering the low power mode to the current time. If the threshold is reached, the remote control enters the sleep mode; that is, when it is in low power mode for a certain period of time, it will automatically enter the sleep mode. This method can greatly reduce the power consumption of the remote control and extend the battery life of the remote control.
