Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] Example

[0039] To facilitate understanding of this application, Figure 1 The contents described in the structural schematic diagram of a virtual reality text input glove device provided by the first embodiment of the present invention are described in detail for the first embodiment of the present application.

[0040] See also Figure 1 As stated, Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of a virtual reality text input glove device provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention is shown, wherein the device comprises a glove body 101, an input module 102 and a processing module 103, wherein the input module and the processing module are both arranged on the glove body, the input module is electrically connected to the processing module, and the processing module can communicate with a third-party device.

[0041] Specifically, the glove body uses elastic material (black elastic material, Lycra or nylon blend) to cut and sew the basic glove shape, and reserves an opening at the back of the hand, which is used for the subsequent installation of electronic components. Use breathable and sweat-absorbent materials for wear-resistant and waterproof treatment, use flat seam technology to reduce friction, support printing customized gloves, and perfectly fit the hand shape. The glove body is designed as a half-finger glove, with the back of the hand extending higher, covering the knuckles, from the wrist to the fingertips, exposing the fingertips. Or a full-finger glove design is adopted, and the button is embedded in the fingertips. It can also be designed with a separate finger ring, and each electronic component can be worn independently. Or a simple separate finger ring elastic plastic connection is used. The processing module, sensor and other components are welded to the FPCB flexible printed circuit board, and the FPCB is embedded in the back of the glove. A wrist adjustment strap is provided at the wrist of the glove body, which is made of black or colored elastic material, nylon or Velcro, and its width is about 5cm. The wrist adjustment strap can also be a magnetic quick release buckle, or a knob-type fine adjustment system. Seal all openings and joints for waterproofing and install adjustment straps to ensure the glove fits snugly.

[0042] In this application, a modular design can be adopted, and the input module can be designed as a detachable module, and these modules can be installed on different types of gloves as needed. Specifically, a finger ring design can be adopted, and the input module can be designed as an independent finger ring instead of the entire glove, and the number and position of wearing can be selected according to needs. Stretchable materials are used to make gloves using stretchable conductive materials, and the buttons and circuits are directly printed or embedded in the material.

[0043] The input module is used to receive user operations; the processing module is used to generate target text according to the user operations and send the target text to the third-party device.

[0044] Specifically, after the user puts on the virtual reality text input glove device, the user operates the input module. The input module is a physical button, an LED display button or a touch sensing area, and small holes are opened at the fingertips and finger joints. The physical button, LED display button or touch sensing area is fixed to the glove body through these small holes, and the button is connected to the processing module, so that the processing module can use the built-in algorithm to generate the target text according to the user operation, process the input signal in real time, and transmit the data to a third-party device (including VR / AR device) through wireless communication (such as Bluetooth) or wired communication to realize text input.

[0045] The connection and communication in this application can use visible light communication instead of Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connection to send data to VR / AR devices through the LED lights on the gloves. Or use UWB ultra-wideband technology and use UWB for data transmission and precise positioning.

[0046] Alternatively, optical tracking can be used to replace physical buttons, using reflective marks on the surface of the gloves to track finger movements through external cameras or built-in cameras in VR headsets. EMG signal sensing can also be used to identify subtle muscle activity by integrating EMG sensors inside the gloves to determine what the user intends to input. It is also possible to use tactile feedback virtual buttons, using force feedback devices instead of physical buttons to provide tactile feedback when the finger touches the preset virtual button position.

[0047] In a feasible implementation manner, the input module includes a main input submodule and an auxiliary function submodule, wherein the main input submodule is arranged on the fingers of the glove body, and the auxiliary function submodule is arranged on the palm of the glove body.

[0048] Specifically, the main input submodule includes several objects, each of which includes a first instruction set, each of which includes data in each input mode, including Chinese and English, numbers, symbols, etc. The auxiliary function submodule also includes several objects, each of which includes a second instruction set, each of which includes each input mode.

[0049] When the user operation is to operate the first target object in the main input submodule, the processing module is used to generate the target text according to the first instruction set contained in the first target object and the current input mode.

[0050] Specifically, the main input submodule is used for text input. When the user operates the first target object in the main input submodule, the processing module filters out target data from the data belonging to the current input mode in the first instruction set contained in the first target object, and then generates target text based on the target data and the preset input algorithm.

[0051] When the user operates the second target object in the auxiliary function submodule, the processing module is used to switch the current input mode according to the second instruction set included in the second target object.

[0052] Specifically, the auxiliary function submodule is used to switch the current input mode. When the user operates the second target object in the auxiliary function submodule, the processing module determines the target input mode from the second instruction set contained in the second target object according to the number of user operations, and switches the current input mode to the target input mode. The function keys are used to quickly switch between Chinese, English, numbers, symbols and other input modes, and the display screen provides real-time feedback on the current input mode.

[0053] In a feasible implementation manner, generating the target text according to the first instruction set contained in the first target object and the current input mode includes:

[0054] According to the number of operations on the first target object and the current input mode, a first user instruction corresponding to the user operation is determined from the first instruction set; and the target text is generated according to the first user instruction using a preconfigured text input algorithm.

[0055] Specifically, from the first instruction set contained in the first target object, based on the selection order of each data in the first instruction set pre-configured in the first instruction set, and according to the number of operations on the first target object, the target data is filtered out from the data belonging to the current input mode, and then the target text is generated based on the target data and the preset input algorithm.

[0056] Furthermore, based on the 9-grid input method, each button corresponds to multiple letters, and the specific letter is selected by the number of clicks. The intelligent prediction algorithm uses natural language processing technology to analyze the current input context and predict the possible next character, word or phrase to help improve input speed and accuracy.

[0057] For example, quickly click the corresponding button 1-3 times to select the required letter. Click the "ABC" (corresponding to the first instruction set and the selected order) button (corresponding to the first target object) once (i.e. the number of operations) to enter A (corresponding to the target data), twice (i.e. the number of operations) to enter B (corresponding to the target data), and three times (i.e. the number of operations) to enter C (corresponding to the target data). Then pause briefly or click a specific confirmation key to confirm the current input (corresponding to the target data).

[0058] In a feasible implementation manner, the main input submodule and the auxiliary function submodule both include a plurality of physical buttons or a plurality of touch sensing areas.

[0059] Specifically, the main input submodule includes 9 physical buttons or 9 touch sensing areas, and the 9 physical buttons or the 9 touch sensing areas are respectively arranged at the tip of the index finger, the second joint of the index finger, the base of the index finger, the tip of the middle finger, the second joint of the middle finger, the base of the middle finger, the tip of the ring finger, the second joint of the ring finger, and the base of the ring finger of the glove body; the first indication set contained in each target object is a set of instructions corresponding to each square in the nine-square input method at the setting position of each target object on the glove body.

[0060] When the main input submodule and the auxiliary function submodule include a plurality of physical buttons, each physical button is respectively arranged on each finger of the glove body, and the user operation is to press the target physical button, and the target object is the target physical button.

[0061] Specifically, the physical button is a small circular touch button, and the data in each instruction set (corresponding letters or function identifiers) are printed on the button surface.

[0064] In a feasible implementation, when the user operation is to operate the third target object in the auxiliary function submodule, the processing module is used to generate a second user instruction according to the operation range of the third target object, wherein the second user instruction is used to implement the scroll wheel function.

[0065] Specifically, the third target object is a strip button, which is set between the thumb and the index finger, preferably in red, and the strip button can realize the selection of the scroll wheel function through the user's touch and slide operation. The third target object can also be an additional function button, which is set at the tip of the thumb. Alternatively, the third target object is set as a touchpad, which is integrated in the thumb area.

[0066] The auxiliary function submodule also includes function keys near the thumb. Click the function keys near the wrist to switch different input shortcut modes. The mode is user-defined, and the key input content can be modified according to personal habits. Shortcut keys can be used for complex commands or quick operations. For example, CTRL+C is for paste.

If it is a curved OLED display screen, it covers the entire palm area. If it is a projector, it performs projection display and projects information onto the palm or other surfaces.

[0069] In this application, a micro projector can be integrated into the glove to project information on the palm or nearby surface. Alternatively, the physical display screen on the glove can be removed, and all information can be displayed through an AR headset, with a virtual keyboard or input feedback superimposed in the user's field of view. Alternatively, tactile feedback information can be transmitted, using different modes of vibration or pressure to transmit information, completely replacing visual display.
