Air Operation Guidance via Graphic Menu Icons
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing air operation methods lack guidance for users, making it difficult to perform gestures correctly, with limited flexibility and extensibility, as they require standard actions and do not provide operation tips on screens, restricting speed, amplitude, and gesture variations, and each action corresponds to only one function.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that display a graphic menu with icons on a screen, detect air operations, and trigger corresponding menu functions based on movement physical quantities, allowing users to perform air operations more accurately and conveniently by visually guiding them through the graphic menu and icons, and adjusting the number of menu items for increased functionality.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If gesture recognition is performed on hand images shot by a camera, then air operation can be implemented, but users lack visual guidance making it difficult to perform gestures correctly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent displays a graphic menu with icons on the screen that provides real-time visual feedback to users during air operation. The menu shows available functions and guides users on which gestures to perform, creating a feedback loop that helps users understand the correct operations and their effects, thereby resolving the lack of visual guidance
2Adaptability or versatility
If standard actions are required for air operation, then operation can be controlled, but flexibility and extensibility are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The graphic menu displays multiple function icons that can be triggered by the same or similar air operations. This allows a single gesture type to access multiple functions depending on which icon is targeted, increasing versatility without requiring users to learn numerous different gesture standards
3Productivity
If each action corresponds to only one function, then operation is simple, but the number of triggerable functions is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The graphic menu dynamically adapts its content based on the current context and detected air operations. Multiple function icons are displayed and can be triggered, allowing the system to handle multiple functions within a single operational framework, increasing productivity while maintaining ease of use through visual guidance

AI summary
The embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a method and apparatus for guiding an operating body for air operation, a computer-readable storage medium, and an electronic device. The method includes: displaying, on a screen, a graphic menu having a first preset shape and an icon in mapping with an operating body and having a second preset shape; detecting an air operation of the operating body with respect to the screen in a space; detecting a movement physical quantity of the icon on the screen in response to the air operation; and triggering, based on the movement physical quantity and a target function region in the graphic menu corresponding to the icon, a menu function corresponding to the target function region. According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, a user may be guided visually to perform air operations with the operating body, and thus knows clearly how to trigger various functions with the operating body, which helps the user to perform air operations accurately. In addition, the number of functions triggered by air operations may be increased under the assistance of the graphic menu, thereby further making it more convenient for the user to perform air operations.
