Abstract

The application provides a virtual keyboard display method and a vehicle, and relates to the technical field of human-computer interaction. The method comprises the following steps: determining a safety-critical region on a vehicle-mounted display screen according to an application program running on the vehicle-mounted display screen; wherein the safety-critical region is used for displaying information associated with driving safety to meet a preset requirement; if an input trigger operation on an input region in the vehicle-mounted display screen is detected, obtaining the size of a virtual keyboard to be displayed and position information of the input region in the vehicle-mounted display screen; determining at least one effective candidate display region in the vehicle-mounted display screen according to the size of the virtual keyboard and the position information of the input region; determining a target display region according to the overlapping degree of the safety-critical region and each effective candidate display region and the positional relationship between each effective candidate display region and the input region, and displaying the virtual keyboard in the target display region. Thus, the virtual keyboard can avoid shielding driving safety associated information, and the driving safety is improved.
