Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of display device technology, such as a control method, apparatus, and smart TV for a smart TV. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, with the continuous increase in the size of smart TV displays and the diversification of display forms, the aspect ratio of display screens is gradually taking on various forms, such as the emergence of new 21:9 aspect ratio screens. However, video resources, application interfaces, and other playback content are usually still produced and output with a fixed target aspect ratio of 16:9. Therefore, during actual playback, users often have the need to view further information or operate other functions while watching video content. Based on this, related technologies have proposed methods that use images or sound to determine whether additional content is displayed during the playback of video content on the TV. These methods include voice commands, remote control operations, or interface clicks, to meet the user's multi-content interaction needs during viewing or use.

[0003] In the process of implementing the embodiments of this disclosure, at least the following problems were found in the related art: While the technology can respond to user interaction commands and display additional content during video playback, it often fails to properly adjust the display position of the video content when the display ratio of the screen and the video content is inconsistent. This results in the additional content being presented by covering, obscuring, or inserting, which not only affects the normal viewing experience of the video content, but also makes it difficult to make full use of the available display space on the screen due to the inconsistent display ratio. Both the display effect and the interactive experience need to be improved.

[0004] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the background section above is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of this application, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art known to those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To provide a basic understanding of some aspects of the disclosed embodiments, a brief summary is given below. This summary is not intended as a general commentary, nor is it intended to identify key / important components or describe the scope of protection of these embodiments, but rather as a prelude to the detailed description that follows.

[0006] This disclosure provides a control method, device, and smart TV for smart TVs, which not only ensures the normal viewing experience of the first content, but also realizes the collaborative display of multiple contents, improving the utilization efficiency of display space and the user interaction experience.

[0007] In some embodiments, the method includes: detecting user interaction behavior when a smart TV is playing first content and the aspect ratio of the display screen is inconsistent with the target aspect ratio of the first content; acquiring second content corresponding to the preset trigger command when the user interaction behavior includes a preset trigger command; controlling the first content to move to one edge area of ​​the display screen to form a functional area on the opposite side of the display screen, and controlling the second content to be displayed in the functional area.

[0008] In some embodiments, the control device includes a processor and a memory storing program instructions, the processor being configured to execute the control method for a smart TV described above when the program instructions are executed.

[0009] In some embodiments, the smart TV includes: a TV body; and the aforementioned control device for the smart TV, which is installed on the TV body.

[0010] The control method, device, and smart TV for smart TVs provided in this disclosure can achieve the following technical effects: This embodiment of the disclosure detects user interaction behavior when a smart TV is playing first content and the aspect ratio of the display screen is inconsistent with the target aspect ratio of the first content. Upon recognizing a user triggering a preset trigger command, it acquires second content corresponding to the preset trigger command and simultaneously controls the first content to move to one edge of the display screen, thereby forming a functional area on the opposite side of the display screen and displaying the second content within that functional area. This allows for reasonable adjustment of the display position of the first content without altering its own display ratio. Therefore, when the aspect ratio of the display screen and the playing content is inconsistent, this embodiment of the disclosure can fully utilize the available display space created by the ratio difference and present the second content as an independent area, thus avoiding the second content from covering, obscuring, or interfering with the first content. This ensures a normal viewing experience for the first content while achieving collaborative display of multiple contents, improving the utilization efficiency of display space and the user interaction experience.

Detailed Implementation

[0013] To provide a more detailed understanding of the features and technical content of the embodiments of this disclosure, the implementation of the embodiments of this disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the embodiments of this disclosure. In the following technical description, for ease of explanation, several details are used to provide a full understanding of the disclosed embodiments. However, one or more embodiments may still be implemented without these details. In other cases, well-known structures and devices may be simplified in their depiction to simplify the drawings.

[0014] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this disclosure are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate for the embodiments of this disclosure described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion.

[0015] Unless otherwise stated, the term "multiple" means two or more.

[0016] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the character " / " indicates that the objects before and after it are in an "or" relationship. For example, A / B means: A or B.

[0017] The term "and / or" describes an association between objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B means: A or B, or A and B.

[0018] The term "correspondence" can refer to an association or binding relationship. The correspondence between A and B means that there is an association or binding relationship between A and B.

[0019] Combination Figure 1 As shown, this disclosure provides a control method for a smart TV, including: S101, when the smart TV is playing the first content and the aspect ratio of the display screen is inconsistent with the target aspect ratio of the first content, the control device detects user interaction behavior.

[0020] S102, when the user interaction behavior includes a preset trigger command, the control device obtains the second content corresponding to the preset trigger command.

[0021] S103, the control device controls the first content to move to one edge area of ​​the display screen to form a functional area on the opposite side of the display screen, and controls the second content to be displayed in the functional area.

[0022] The control method for smart TVs provided in this disclosure detects user interaction when the aspect ratio of the display screen is inconsistent with the target aspect ratio of the first content while the first content is playing. Upon detecting a user triggering a preset trigger command, the method acquires the second content corresponding to the preset trigger command and simultaneously controls the first content to move to one edge of the display screen, thereby forming a functional area on the opposite side of the screen and displaying the second content therein. This allows for reasonable adjustment of the display position of the first content without altering its own aspect ratio. Therefore, when the aspect ratio of the display screen and the playing content is inconsistent, this disclosure can fully utilize the available display space resulting from the aspect ratio difference and present the second content as an independent area. This avoids the second content covering, obscuring, or interfering with the first content, ensuring a normal viewing experience for the first content while achieving collaborative display of multiple contents, thus improving the utilization efficiency of display space and the user interaction experience.

[0023] Optionally, the control device detects user interaction behavior, including: the control device collects one or more of the user's remote control commands, voice commands, and gesture commands to obtain user interaction behavior. In this way, by collecting user-issued remote control commands, voice commands, and / or gesture commands to obtain user interaction behavior, the embodiments of this disclosure can adapt to different users' operating habits and usage scenarios, achieving unified detection and processing of multiple interaction methods, thereby improving the convenience and accuracy of users triggering preset trigger commands and enhancing the human-computer interaction experience of smart TVs.

[0024] Optionally, a preset trigger command is used to instruct the smart TV to perform a display state adjustment operation during the playback of the first content, so as to trigger the adjustment of the display position of the first content and form a functional area on the display screen for displaying additional second content.

[0025] Specifically, in some embodiments, the preset trigger command includes a bullet screen-like command, used to instruct the display or shutdown of bullet screen content. When a bullet screen-like command is received, the control device controls the first content to move to one edge area of ​​the display screen, and displays the second content related to the bullet screen in the functional area formed on the opposite side, so as to achieve bullet screen display without obscuring the first content.

[0026] In other embodiments, the preset trigger command includes a retrieval command, which instructs the retrieval of relevant information in the current screen of the first content. When a retrieval command is received, the control device controls the first content to move to one edge area of ​​the display screen and displays the retrieval information related to the first content in a functional area formed on the opposite side, so as to provide the user with retrieval information related to people or objects in the screen without interrupting the display of the first content.

[0027] In other embodiments, the preset trigger command includes an application wake-up command, which instructs other applications to be launched during the playback of the first content. When an application wake-up command is received, the control device controls the first content to move to one edge area of ​​the display screen, and displays the application's interface content in a functional area formed on the opposite side, so as to achieve parallel display of the first content and the application interface.

[0028] Optionally, embodiments of this disclosure may also include more preset trigger commands, and are not limited to the three preset trigger commands mentioned above. The second content displayed in the functional area can also be reasonably set according to different preset trigger commands, thereby realizing the collaborative display of multiple contents, which will not be listed one by one here.

[0029] Optionally, the control device controls the first content to move to one side edge area of ​​the display screen, including: the control device determines the candidate movement mode of the first content based on the design aspect ratio of the display screen and the target aspect ratio of the first content; the control device controls the first content to move to one side edge area of ​​the display screen according to the candidate movement mode.

[0030] Thus, this embodiment of the present disclosure can pre-determine the candidate movement method of the first content based on the designed aspect ratio of the display screen and the target aspect ratio of the first content, and control the first content to move to one edge area of ​​the display screen accordingly. This provides a clear basis for the display adjustment of the first content, avoiding arbitrary movement operations that could lead to unreasonable functional area layout, thereby causing the second content to cover, obstruct, or interfere with the first content, affecting the normal viewing experience of the first content.

[0031] Optionally, the control device determines the candidate movement mode of the first content based on the designed aspect ratio of the display screen and the target aspect ratio of the first content, including: if the designed aspect ratio of the display screen is greater than the target aspect ratio of the first content, the control device may determine that the candidate movement mode of the first content includes a horizontal leftward movement or a horizontal rightward movement; or, if the designed aspect ratio of the display screen is less than the target aspect ratio of the first content, the control device may determine that the candidate movement mode of the first content includes a vertical upward movement or a vertical downward movement.

[0032] Thus, this embodiment of the present disclosure can control the first content to move horizontally when the designed aspect ratio of the display screen is greater than the target aspect ratio of the first content, and control the first content to move vertically when the designed aspect ratio of the display screen is less than the target aspect ratio of the first content. This allows the movement of the first content to match the actual available free space on the display screen, achieving adaptive adaptation to different display formats such as widescreen and portrait screen. This makes fuller use of the available display space resulting from inconsistent aspect ratios, improving the rationality of the functional area layout and the consistency of the display effect.

[0033] Optionally, the target aspect ratio can be set in conjunction with the output method of the first content. Specifically, the target aspect ratio can be set to 16:9 to correspond to the display ratio of mainstream video resources. The target aspect ratio can also be adjusted according to the user's actual needs, or set to any other display ratio such as 4:3.

[0034] Optionally, the control device controls the first content to move to one edge area of ​​the display screen according to the selected movement mode, including: the control device acquiring current user information; the control device determining the target movement mode of the first content from the selected movement modes based on the current user information; and the control device controlling the first content to move to the target edge area of ​​the display screen according to the target movement mode.

[0035] Thus, by obtaining current user information and combining it with the candidate movement methods to determine the target movement method of the first content, the final display positions of the first and second content can be adaptively adjusted according to the user's actual state. This ensures the formation of functional areas while improving the adaptability of the display layout to the user's viewing habits and further optimizing the user's interactive experience.

[0036] Optionally, the control device acquires current user information, including: if the candidate movement mode of the first content includes a horizontal left movement mode or a horizontal right movement mode, the control device determines the current user information as user position information; or, if the candidate movement mode of the first content includes a vertical up movement mode or a vertical down movement mode, the control device determines the current user information as user posture information.

[0037] In this way, the embodiments of this disclosure can determine the key user information to be acquired based on the candidate movement mode of the first content. When the first content moves in the horizontal direction, the user's position information is acquired to adapt to the user's viewing angle. When the first content moves in the vertical direction, the user's posture information is acquired to adapt to the user's viewing height. This ensures that the display effect always matches the user's viewing state, which not only improves the user's viewing comfort but also enhances the user's actual interactive experience.

[0038] Optionally, the control device determines the target movement mode of the first content from the candidate movement modes based on the current user information, including: when the user position is close to the right edge area of ​​the display screen, the control device determines that the target movement mode of the first content is a horizontal leftward movement mode; or, when the user position is close to the left edge area of ​​the display screen, the control device determines that the target movement mode of the first content is a horizontal rightward movement mode.

[0039] Thus, when the candidate movement methods include horizontal leftward movement or horizontal rightward movement, this embodiment of the disclosure determines the target movement direction of the first content based on the user's location information, enabling the first content to move away from the user's location, thereby arranging the functional area in a position that is more conducive to the user's viewing and improving the actual user experience when interacting with the second content.

[0040] Optionally, the control device determines the target movement mode of the first content from the candidate movement modes based on the current user information, including: when the user's posture is standing or sitting, the control device determines that the target movement mode of the first content is a vertical downward movement mode; or, when the user's posture is lying down, the control device determines that the target movement mode of the first content is a vertical upward movement mode.

[0041] Thus, when the selectable movement methods include vertical upward movement or vertical downward movement, this embodiment of the disclosure determines the target movement direction of the first content based on the user's posture information, so that the first content can move in a direction that is at a different height from the user's head, thereby arranging the functional area in a position that is more conducive to the user's viewing and improving the actual experience of the user interacting with the second content.

[0042] Optionally, the control device controls the first content to move to the target edge area of ​​the display screen in a target movement manner, including: the control device controls the first content to move to the left edge area of ​​the display screen in a horizontal leftward movement manner.

[0043] Thus, combined Figure 4-2 As shown, this embodiment of the disclosure moves the first content horizontally to the left edge of the display screen, creating an independent functional area on the right side of the screen for displaying the second content. This allows for parallel display of the first and second content without altering the display ratio of the first content, improving the utilization efficiency of display space. Furthermore, this embodiment adapts to the user's right-side viewing scenario, facilitating interaction between the user and the second content in the functional area, thereby improving the adaptability of the display layout to user viewing habits and further optimizing the user's interactive experience.

[0044] Optionally, the control device controls the first content to move to the target edge area of ​​the display screen according to the target movement mode, including: the control device controls the first content to move to the right edge area of ​​the display screen according to the horizontal rightward movement mode.

[0045] Thus, combined Figure 4-3 As shown, this embodiment of the disclosure moves the first content horizontally to the right edge of the display screen, creating an independent functional area on the left side of the screen for displaying the second content. This allows for parallel display of the first and second content without altering the display ratio of the first content, improving the utilization efficiency of display space. Furthermore, this embodiment adapts to users viewing from the left, facilitating interaction between the user and the second content in the functional area, thus improving the adaptability of the display layout to user viewing habits and further optimizing the user's interactive experience.

[0046] Optionally, the control device controls the first content to move to the target edge area of ​​the display screen in a target movement manner, including: the control device controls the first content to move to the lower edge area of ​​the display screen in a vertical downward movement manner.

[0047] Thus, combined Figure 5-2As shown, this embodiment of the disclosure moves the first content vertically downwards to the lower edge of the display screen, creating an independent functional area on the upper part of the screen for displaying the second content. This allows for parallel display of the first and second content without altering the display ratio of the first content, improving the utilization efficiency of display space. Furthermore, this embodiment of the disclosure can adapt to user viewing postures (standing or sitting), facilitating browsing of the second content in the functional area under the current posture, thereby improving the adaptability of the display layout to user viewing habits and further optimizing the user's interactive experience.

[0048] Optionally, the control device controls the first content to move to the target edge area of ​​the display screen in a target movement manner, including: the control device controls the first content to move to the upper edge area of ​​the display screen in a vertical upward movement manner.

[0049] Thus, combined Figure 5-3 As shown, this embodiment of the disclosure moves the first content vertically upwards to the upper edge of the display screen, creating an independent functional area on the lower side of the screen for displaying the second content. This allows for parallel display of the first and second content without altering the display ratio of the first content, improving the utilization efficiency of display space. Furthermore, this embodiment can adapt to users' lying postures, facilitating browsing of the second content in the functional area while in the current position, thus improving the adaptability of the display layout to user viewing habits and further optimizing the user's interactive experience.

[0050] Combination Figure 2 As shown, this disclosure provides another control method for smart TVs, including: S201, when the smart TV is playing the first content and the aspect ratio of the display screen is inconsistent with the target aspect ratio of the first content, the control device detects user interaction behavior.

[0051] S202, when the user interaction behavior includes a preset trigger command, the control device obtains the second content corresponding to the preset trigger command.

[0052] S203, the control device controls the first content to move to one edge area of ​​the display screen to form a functional area on the opposite side of the display screen, and controls the second content to be displayed in the functional area. Alternatively, S204, when the user interaction behavior does not include a preset trigger command, the control device controls the first content to be displayed in the center area of ​​the display screen.

[0053] The control method for smart TVs provided in this disclosure detects user interaction when the aspect ratio of the display screen is inconsistent with the target aspect ratio of the first content while the first content is playing. Upon detecting a user triggering a preset trigger command, the method acquires the second content corresponding to the preset trigger command and simultaneously controls the first content to move to one edge of the display screen, thereby forming a functional area on the opposite side of the screen and displaying the second content therein. This allows for reasonable adjustment of the display position of the first content without altering its own aspect ratio. Therefore, when the aspect ratio of the display screen and the playing content is inconsistent, this disclosure can fully utilize the available display space resulting from the aspect ratio difference and present the second content as an independent area. This avoids the second content covering, obscuring, or interfering with the first content, ensuring a normal viewing experience for the first content while achieving collaborative display of multiple contents, thus improving the utilization efficiency of display space and the user interaction experience.

[0054] In addition, combined Figure 4-1 and 5-1 As shown, in the absence of preset trigger commands in user interaction behavior, the embodiments of this disclosure can control the first content to be displayed in the central area of ​​the display screen, so that the first content still maintains a normal display state when no additional content needs to be displayed, thereby avoiding unnecessary interface changes and ensuring the continuity and stability of the user's viewing experience.

[0055] Optionally, the control device controls the first content to be displayed in the central area of ​​the display screen, including: the control device controls the geometric center of the first content to coincide with the geometric center of the display screen.

[0056] Thus, the embodiments of this disclosure can be adapted to different display formats such as widescreen and portrait screen, ensuring that the first content is always displayed in the center area of ​​the display screen, thereby avoiding unnecessary interface changes and ensuring the continuity and stability of the user's viewing experience.

[0057] Combination Figure 3 As shown, this disclosure provides another control method for smart TVs, including: S301, when the smart TV is playing the first content and the aspect ratio of the display screen is inconsistent with the target aspect ratio of the first content, the control device detects user interaction behavior.

[0058] S302, when the user interaction behavior includes a preset trigger command, the control device obtains the second content corresponding to the preset trigger command.

[0059] S303, the control device controls the first content to move to one edge area of ​​the display screen to form a functional area on the opposite side of the display screen, and controls the second content to be displayed in the functional area. Alternatively, S304, when the user interaction behavior includes both a first trigger command and a second trigger command, the control device acquires the second content and the third content corresponding to the first trigger command and the second trigger command, respectively. Both the first trigger command and the second trigger command are preset trigger commands.

[0060] S305, the control device controls the first content to be displayed in the central area of ​​the display screen, so as to form a first functional area and a second functional area on both sides of the central area respectively, and controls the second content and the third content to be displayed in the first functional area and the second functional area respectively.

[0061] The control method for smart TVs provided in this disclosure detects user interaction when the aspect ratio of the display screen is inconsistent with the target aspect ratio of the first content while the first content is playing. Upon detecting a user triggering a preset trigger command, the method acquires the second content corresponding to the preset trigger command and simultaneously controls the first content to move to one edge of the display screen, thereby forming a functional area on the opposite side of the screen and displaying the second content therein. This allows for reasonable adjustment of the display position of the first content without altering its own aspect ratio. Therefore, when the aspect ratio of the display screen and the playing content is inconsistent, this disclosure can fully utilize the available display space resulting from the aspect ratio difference and present the second content as an independent area. This avoids the second content covering, obscuring, or interfering with the first content, ensuring a normal viewing experience for the first content while achieving collaborative display of multiple contents, thus improving the utilization efficiency of display space and the user interaction experience.

[0062] In addition, combined Figure 4-4 and 5-4 As shown, when the user interaction behavior includes both a first trigger command and a second trigger command, the embodiments of this disclosure can keep the first content in the central area of ​​the display screen, and form a first functional area and a second functional area on both sides to display the second content and the third content, so that multiple additional contents can be presented simultaneously without obscuring the first content, thereby achieving a higher level of multi-content collaborative display and further improving the utilization efficiency and interactivity of the display space.

[0063] Optionally, the control method for a smart TV further includes: when the user interaction behavior includes multiple preset trigger commands, the control device determines a first trigger command with the highest priority and a second trigger command with the second highest priority; the control device acquires second content and third content corresponding to the first trigger command and the second trigger command, respectively; the control device controls the first content to be displayed in the central area of ​​the display screen, so as to form a first functional area and a second functional area on both sides of the central area, and controls the second content and the third content to be displayed in the first functional area and the second functional area, respectively.

[0064] Thus, by prioritizing multiple preset trigger commands when user interaction includes such commands, this embodiment of the present disclosure selects the two preset trigger commands with the highest and second-highest priority for display control. This allows the system to maintain the orderliness of the display logic in scenarios with multiple concurrent commands, avoids interface chaos, and ensures the stability and controllability of the multi-content display process.

[0065] Specifically, in some embodiments, the priority of application wake-up commands is higher than that of retrieval commands, the priority of retrieval commands is higher than that of bullet screen commands, and the priority of bullet screen commands is higher than that of other commands. In this way, embodiments of this disclosure can set corresponding priorities for different trigger commands to ensure that the system can maintain the orderliness of display logic even in scenarios with multiple concurrent commands.
