[0019] FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a haptic feedback method according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, this method includes the following steps.

[0020] Step 101: The first electronic device generates session information in response to a session information editing operation input by a first user.

[0021] In an embodiment of the present invention, the first electronic device includes, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a tablet, a laptop, a wearable device, etc.

[0022] In this step, the session information includes character information, the character information is Morse code character information, and the Morse code character information includes first character information and / or second character information.

[0023] Optionally, the character information editing operation includes an operation in which a first user clicks at least once on a character editing button at a transmission interface of the first electronic device.

[0024] FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the transmission interface of the first electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the transmission interface of the first electronic device has a character editing button, a back button, a Morse code input area, and a normal character display area. The character editing button includes a first character button, a second character button, a space button, a delete button, and a completion button. When the first user clicks the back button, the first electronic device responds to the click operation of the back button input by the first user and returns to the previous operation interface. When the first user clicks the first character button, the first electronic device generates first character information in response to the click operation of the first character button input by the user. When the first user clicks the second character button, the first electronic device generates second character information in response to the click operation of the second character button input by the first user. When the first user clicks the space button, the first electronic device generates a space delimiter character for separating Morse code characters corresponding to different groups of normal characters in response to the click operation of the space button input by the first user. When the first user clicks the delete button, the first electronic device deletes the last Morse code character in the Morse code input area in response to the click operation of the delete button input by the first user. When the first user clicks the completion button, the first electronic device generates a completion delimiter character for separating different groups of Morse code characters in response to the click operation of the completion button input by the first user. Among these, the first character button includes a "·" button, the second character button includes a "-" button, the first character information includes "·" character information, and the second character information is "-" character information.

[0025] The first user clicks at least once on the character editing button in the transmission interface of the first electronic device, and the first electronic device generates character information in response to the click operation of at least one character editing button input by the first user. For example, when the first user clicks the first character button three times and the completion button once, "···" character information and one completion delimiter character are generated. When the first user clicks the first character button, the second character button, and the completion button once, "·-" character information and one completion delimiter character are generated. When the first user clicks the first character button three times, the second character button once, and the completion button once, "···-" character information and one completion delimiter character are generated. When the first user clicks the first character button and the completion button once, "·" character information is generated. When the first user clicks the space button once, one space delimiter character is generated. When the first user clicks the second character button once, the first character button once, the second character button twice, and the completion button once, "-·--" character information and one completion delimiter character are generated. The first electronic device generates character information of "··· ·- ···- · -·--" in response to the click operations of a plurality of character editing buttons input by the first user.

[0026] The first electronic device generates Morse code character information in response to the character editing operation input by the first user, and displays the Morse code character information in the Morse code input area. The first electronic device converts the Morse code character information into characters according to the pre-set correspondence between normal characters and Morse code characters, generates normal character information corresponding to the Morse code character information, and displays the normal character information corresponding to the Morse code character information in the normal character display area.

[0027] As shown in Table 1 below, the correspondence between normal characters and Morse code characters is shown in Table 1.

[0028]

Table 1

[0029] As shown in Table 1 above, the Morse code character corresponding to the normal character S is "···", the Morse code character corresponding to the normal character A is "·-", the Morse code character corresponding to the normal character "V" is "···-", the Morse code character corresponding to the alphabet "E" is "·", and the Morse code character corresponding to the normal character "Y" is "-·--". For example, when the Morse code character information generated in response to a character information editing operation input by the first user on the first electronic device is "··· ·- ···- · -·--", the first electronic device displays the Morse code character information "··· ·- ···- · -·--" in the Morse code input area. The first electronic device converts the Morse code character information into characters according to the pre-set correspondence between normal characters and Morse code characters to generate normal character information of "Save Y", and displays the normal character information of "Save Y" in the normal character display area.

[0030] As another option, the character information editing operation includes an operation in which the first user taps the back cover of the first electronic device. When a first tap operation is input by the first user, the first electronic device generates first character information in response to the first tap operation input by the first user. When a second tap operation is input by the first user, the first electronic device generates second character information in response to the second tap operation input by the first user. When a third tap operation is input by the first user, the first electronic device generates a space-separated character in response to the third tap operation input by the first user. As shown in FIG. 2, when the first user clicks the character editing button at least once, the first electronic device generates input state information including character information and / or graphic information in response to at least one character button click operation input by the first user. For example, the input state information includes three circles on the first user side.

[0031] Step 102: In response to a transmission operation input by the first user, the first electronic device transmits session information to the data platform.

[0032] As one option, the transmission operation includes a transmission button click operation.

[0033] As shown in Figure 2, the transmission interface of the first electronic device further includes a transmission button. After the first user confirms that there is no error in the Morse code character information displayed in the Morse code input area, the first user clicks the transmission button, and the first electronic device responds to the transmission button click operation input by the first user, and transmits the Morse code character information and the normal character information corresponding to the Morse code character information to the data platform. The data platform transmits the Morse code character information and the normal character information corresponding to the Morse code character information to the second electronic device.

[0034] As another option, the transmission operation includes an operation of not tapping the back cover within a preset time interval. If the second user does not input a first tap operation or a second tap operation on the back cover of the first electronic device within the preset time interval, the second electronic device transmits the generated character information to the data platform, and the data platform transmits the character information to the electronic device possessed by the information transmission target preset by the first user. For example, if the information transmission target preset by the first user is the second user and the electronic device possessed by the second user is the second electronic device, the data platform transmits the character information to the second electronic device.

[0035] Step 103: The second electronic device acquires session information from the data platform and generates first tactile feedback based on the session information.

[0036] In this step, the first tactile feedback includes at least one of the first character tactile feedback, the second character tactile feedback, the third character tactile feedback, and the fourth character tactile feedback. Among these, the first character information corresponds to the first character tactile feedback, the second character information corresponds to the second character tactile feedback, the third character information corresponds to the third character tactile feedback, and the fourth character information corresponds to the fourth character tactile feedback. For example, the first character information is "·", the first character tactile feedback is one short vibration, the second character information is "-", the second character tactile feedback is one long vibration, the third character information is a completion delimiter character, the third character tactile feedback is two high-speed short vibrations, the fourth character information is a space delimiter character, and the fourth character tactile feedback is two high-speed long vibrations. For example, if the completion delimiter character is the "" character, and the character information received by the second electronic device is the Morse code character information "·- ···" and the normal character information "AS", and there is a completion delimiter character between the "·-" character and the "···" character, the first tactile feedback generated by the second electronic device includes one short vibration, one long vibration, two high-speed short vibrations, one short vibration, one short vibration, and one short vibration.

[0037] In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the first electronic device generates session information in response to a session information editing operation input by a first user, and transmits the session information to a data platform in response to a transmission operation input by the first user so that the second electronic device can obtain the session information from the data platform and generate tactile feedback based on the session information. In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, by utilizing the characteristics of Morse code and transmitting information through Morse code, the information transmission process is simplified, the interestingness in the information transmission process is improved, and the user experience is improved.

[0038] In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the first user can generate character information by knocking on the back cover of the first electronic device, and can complete the transmission of information without taking out the first electronic device, improving the convenience of information transmission.

[0039] Figure 3 is a flowchart of another tactile feedback method according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Figure 3, this method includes the following steps.

[0040] Step 201: The first electronic device generates session information in response to a session information editing operation input by the first user.

[0041] In the embodiment of the present invention, the first electronic device includes, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a tablet, a laptop, a wearable device, etc.

[0042] In this step, the session information includes character information and emotional state information. For the description of the character information, reference can be made to the description of step 101, so the description will not be repeated here.

[0043] The first electronic device generates emotional state information in response to an emotional state editing operation input by the first user. The emotional state information includes an emotional state and tactile feedback parameters corresponding to the emotional state.

[0044] As shown in Figure 2, the transmission interface of the first electronic device further includes a menu button. When the first user clicks the menu button, the first electronic device pops up an emotional state information setting interface in response to the click operation of the menu button input by the first user.

[0045] FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of an emotional state setting interface according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 4, the emotional state setting interface includes three emotional states, a tactile feedback intensity slider, a tactile feedback frequency slider, a tactile feedback time slider, and a back button. The three emotional states are "happy", "normal", and "unhappy", respectively. After the first user selects an emotional state, the first user clicks on a certain position point on the tactile feedback intensity slider or slides the tactile feedback intensity slider to a certain position point to set the tactile feedback intensity corresponding to this emotional state. After the first user selects an emotional state, the first user clicks on a certain position point on the tactile feedback frequency slider or slides the tactile feedback frequency slider to a certain position point to set the tactile feedback frequency corresponding to this emotional state. After the first user selects an emotional state, the first user clicks on a certain position point on the tactile feedback time slider or slides the tactile feedback time slider to a certain position point to set the tactile feedback time corresponding to this emotional state. When the emotion of the first user is not high, the emotional state can be selected as the "unhappy" emotional state, the tactile feedback intensity corresponding to the "unhappy" emotional state can be set to a low intensity, the tactile feedback frequency can be set to a low frequency, and the tactile feedback time can be set to a long time. When the emotion of the first user is high, the emotional state can be selected as the "happy" emotional state, the tactile feedback intensity corresponding to the "happy" emotional state can be set to a high intensity, the tactile feedback frequency can be set to a high frequency, and the tactile feedback time can be set to a short time. For example, when the emotion of the first user is a positive emotion such as warmth, intimacy, and trust, the emotional state can be selected as the "happy" emotional state. When the emotion of the first user is a negative emotion such as pain, discomfort, and aggression, the emotional state can be selected as the "unhappy" emotional state.

[0046] As an option, the emotional state setting interface may further include a tactile feedback intensity value box, a tactile feedback frequency value box, and a tactile feedback duration value box, and the first user can set the numerical values of the tactile feedback parameters specific to the emotional state in the corresponding value box. For example, the first user sets the tactile feedback frequency corresponding to the emotional state of "happy" to 2 times / s and the tactile feedback duration to 2 s.

[0047] As shown in FIG. 4, the emotional state setting interface further includes a save button. After the first user edits the emotional state information and clicks the save button, the first electronic device saves the set emotional state information to the first electronic device in response to the save button click operation input by the first user.

[0048] Step 202: The first electronic device transmits the session information to the data platform in response to the transmission operation input by the first user.

[0049] In this step, the first electronic device synchronizes the character information and the emotional state information and transmits them to the data platform in response to the transmission operation input by the first user.

[0050] Step 203: The second electronic device obtains the session information from the data platform and generates the second tactile feedback based on the session information.

[0051] In this step, the haptic feedback parameters include at least one of the haptic feedback intensity, haptic feedback frequency, and haptic feedback time. For example, the emotional state includes a "happy" emotional state, and the haptic feedback parameters corresponding to the "happy" emotional state include that the haptic feedback frequency is 2 times / s. The second electronic device generates a second haptic feedback corresponding to the session information based on the haptic feedback frequency of 2 times / s. For example, if the session information received by the second electronic device includes the character information "·-" and the "happy" emotional state, the second electronic device executes a second haptic feedback corresponding to the character information "·-" according to the haptic feedback frequency of 2 times / s.

[0052] In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the first electronic device generates session information in response to a session information editing operation input by a first user, and transmits the session information to a data platform in response to a transmission operation input by the first user. The second electronic device obtains the session information from the data platform and generates a second haptic feedback based on the session information. In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, by utilizing the characteristics of Morse code and transmitting information through Morse code, the information transmission process is simplified, the interestingness in the information transmission process is improved, and the user experience is improved.

[0053] In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the second electronic device obtains the session information from the data platform and generates a second haptic feedback based on the session information. In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, by expressing the nuance elements lost in the information transmission process through the session information and truthfully expressing the overall tone of the emotion, it is beneficial to make the haptic feedback richer, shorten the distance between users, reduce misunderstandings and collisions, promote trust and cooperation, and improve the user experience.

[0054] FIG. 5 is a flowchart of another tactile feedback method according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 5, this method includes the following steps.

[0055] Step 301: The second electronic device receives session information transmitted from the data platform.

[0056] In the embodiment of the present invention, the second electronic device includes, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a tablet, a laptop, a wearable device, etc.

[0057] In this step, the session information includes character information. The first electronic device generates character information in response to a character information editing operation input by the first user, transmits the character information to the data platform in response to a first transmission operation input by the first user, and the data platform transmits the character information to the second electronic device.

[0058] Step 302: The second electronic device generates first tactile feedback based on the session information.

[0059] In the embodiment of the present invention, since the description of step 302 can refer to the description in step 103, the description will not be repeated here.

[0060] In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the second electronic device obtains session information transmitted from the data platform and generates tactile feedback based on the session information.

[0063] In an embodiment of the present invention, the second electronic device includes, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a tablet, a portable PC, a wearable device, etc.

[0064] In this step, the session information includes character information and emotional state information. Specifically, the first electronic device generates emotional state information in response to an emotional state editing operation input by the first user, and in response to a transmission operation input by the first user, transmits emotional state information including the emotional state and the tactile feedback parameter corresponding to the emotional state to the data platform. The second electronic device, in response to an emotional state click operation input by the second user, sends a data request including a request for obtaining the tactile feedback parameter corresponding to the emotional state set by the first user according to the emotional state of the first user to the data platform, and the data platform responds to the received data request and sends the tactile feedback parameter corresponding to the emotional state to the second electronic device. For example, the first user sets the emotional state to an emotional state of "happy", sets the tactile feedback intensity corresponding to the emotional state of "happy" to a high intensity, sets the tactile feedback frequency to a high frequency, and sets the tactile feedback time to a short time.

[0065] FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of the receiving interface of the second electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 6, the receiving interface of the second electronic device includes a character editing button, a back button, a Morse code input area, a normal character display area, and a mood state button for the first user. Here, since the descriptions of the character editing button, the back button, the Morse code input area, and the normal character display area can be referred to the description in step 101, the descriptions will not be repeated here. The second user clicks the mood state button of the first user, and the second electronic device responds to the mood state click operation input by the second user and obtains the tactile feedback parameter corresponding to the "happy" mood state set by the first user from the data platform. For example, the second user clicks the "happy" mood state button of the first user, and the second electronic device responds to the mood state button click operation input by the second user and sends a data request including a request for obtaining the tactile feedback parameter corresponding to the "happy" mood state set by the first user to the data platform. The data platform sends the tactile feedback parameter corresponding to the "happy" mood state to the second electronic device in response to the received data request. The tactile feedback parameter corresponding to the "happy" mood state includes that the tactile feedback frequency is 2 times / s and the tactile feedback time is 2 s.

[0066] Step 402: The second electronic device generates second tactile feedback based on the session information.

[0067] In the embodiment of the present invention, since the description of step 402 can be referred to the description of step 203, the description will not be repeated here.

[0068] In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the second electronic device acquires session information from the data platform and generates second tactile feedback based on the session information.
