Compared with switching the first mouse icon 122 and the second mouse icon 124 through the buttons 131 / 132, the present embodiment switches the first mouse icon 122 and the second mouse icon 124 through the user image information MG, so as to facilitate the user to operate the mouse 130.

[0040] The following describes the computer operation methods for different embodiments. Figure 1 and Figure 4 ,in Figure 4 A flow chart of a computer operation method according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The computer operation method includes the following steps S110-S116. First, in step S110, the mouse 130 is connected to the control host 110. In step S111, the control host 110 generates a first mouse icon 122 on the display device 120. In step S112, the user moves the mouse 130 to control the position of the first mouse icon 122. In step S113, the button 131 / 132 is pressed, and the button 131 / 132 is used to generate a control signal to the control host 110, so that the control host 110 generates a second mouse icon 124 at a specified position of the display device 120 or at the position of the first mouse icon 122.

[0041] In the above step S113, a key is pressed, for example, a key combination consisting of a key 131 (e.g., Ctrl key) and any numeric key or a key 132 (not the left and right keys of the mouse) on the mouse 130, and the corresponding function triggered by the key 131 / 132 can be preset in the control host 110. The numeric key can represent the number of the mouse icon, for example, the number 1 represents the first mouse icon 122, the number 2 represents the second mouse icon 124, and so on. When the user presses the key 131 / 132, the first mouse icon 122 will stay in place (cannot be operated), and the second mouse icon 124 can be generated on the display device 120 according to the user's preset setting. In step S114, the user can move the mouse 130 to control the position of the second mouse icon 124. In step S115, when the user wants to switch to the operation of the first mouse icon 122 or other mouse icons, the user releases the original button 131 or triggers another button 132 to make the second mouse icon 124 disappear. Triggering another button is, for example, Ctrl+Esc to return to the operation of the first mouse icon 122, or triggering Ctrl+number keys to switch to other mouse icons. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to switching only two mouse icons, and more mouse icons can also be switched. In step S116, the user moves the mouse 130 to control the position of the first mouse icon 122.

[0042] In one embodiment, by repeating the above steps S113 to S116, the user can switch between the first mouse icon 122 and the second mouse icon 124 by pressing / releasing the same button 131 / 132, or by pressing and releasing one button 131 / triggering another button 132. Therefore, the user does not need to move the mouse icon horizontally for a long distance or search for the position of the mouse icon, so as to avoid the problem of difficulty in operating the mouse 130 or difficulty in finding the position of the mouse icon.

[0043] The above computer operation method can also be applied to Figure 2 The computer operating system 101 shown or Figure 3 In the computer operating system 102 shown, the control host 110 can generate a first mouse icon 122 and a second mouse icon 124 in at least two display devices 120 or at least two working windows 126 and 128 respectively, which will not be described in detail herein.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 ,in Figure 5A flowchart of a computer operation method according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The computer operation method includes the following steps S210-S216. First, in step S210, the mouse 130 is connected to the control host 110. In step S211, the control host 110 generates a first mouse icon 122 on the display device 120. In step S212, the camera 125 is turned on, and the camera 125 is used to capture the user image information MG. In step S213, the control host 110 generates a second mouse icon 124 at a designated position of the display device 120 based on the user image information MG.

[0045] In the above step S213, the user image information MG may include the head rotation angle, the position of the human eye, the position of the iris and / or the position of the human eye line of sight on the screen. For example, when the camera 125 detects that the position of the human eye line of sight corresponds to the first screen area of ​​the display device 120, the control host 110 controls the position of the first mouse icon 122 in the first screen area; when the camera 125 detects that the position of the human eye line of sight corresponds to the second screen area of ​​the display device 120, the control host 110 may generate a second mouse icon 124 in the second screen area and control the position of the second mouse icon 124.

[0046] In step S214, the user can move the mouse 130 to control the position of the second mouse icon 124. In step S215, when the user wants to switch to the operation with the first mouse icon 122, as long as the user turns his head, the control host 110 detects that the position of the human eye line of sight is away from the position of the second mouse icon 124 and makes the second mouse icon 124 disappear. In step S216, the user moves the mouse 130 to control the position of the first mouse icon 122.

[0047] In one embodiment, by repeating the above steps S213 to S216, the user can switch the first mouse icon 122 and the second mouse icon 124 through the user image information MG. Therefore, the user does not need to move the mouse icon horizontally for a long distance or search for the position of the mouse icon, so as to avoid the problem of difficulty in operating the mouse 130 or difficulty in finding the position of the mouse icon.

[0048] The above computer operation method can also be applied to Figure 2 The computer operating system 101 shown or Figure 3 In the computer operating system 102 shown, the control host 110 can generate a first mouse icon 122 and a second mouse icon 124 in at least two display devices 120 or at least two working windows 126 and 128 respectively, which will not be described in detail herein.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 6, which depicts a flow chart of a mouse icon switching method according to an embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the mouse icon switching can be displayed by a line connection method, an arrow movement method, or a method of moving the current mouse icon to the next mouse icon to be controlled and merging, so as to inform the user of the position of the mouse icon to be controlled. In addition, in step S310, when the display device 120 displays at least two working windows 126, 128, and at least two working windows 126, 128 are located in different layers (for example, overlapped and located in the upper and lower layers), the control host 110 can operate through the following mouse icon switching method. In step S311, when the first mouse icon 122 is selected for control, the control host 110 moves the working window where the first mouse icon 122 is located to the top layer. In step S312, when the second mouse icon 124 is selected for control, the control host 110 moves the working window where the second mouse icon 124 is located to the top layer. And so on, if there are more mouse icons to switch, the switching method is as described above.

[0050] That is to say, the working window and its application where the mouse icon is located can be opened and merged, so that the working window where the mouse icon to be controlled is located remains at the top layer, and the working window where the mouse icon not being controlled is moved to the next layer to avoid obscuring the mouse icon and working window currently being controlled.
