Stylus Air Mouse Mode for Screen Casting Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
When screen casting from a terminal equipped with a stylus, the stylus's operation functionality does not meet all requirements, making content casting operations inconvenient, especially in scenarios like video playing or PowerPoint presentations on large screens.
Innovation Solution
An air mouse mode implementation method and device that establishes a Bluetooth connection between the electronic device and stylus, allowing the stylus to enter an air mouse mode indicated by a dot icon, enabling functions like page turning and marking, and automatically switching back to the original mode when the screen casting event ends.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the stylus is used for screen casting operations, then the terminal can be equipped with a stylus for input operations, but the stylus function does not meet all operation requirements when display content is cast on a large screen
Solution Approach 1:
The stylus dynamically switches between two operational modes: standard stylus mode for normal use and air mouse mode for screen casting scenarios. This dynamic adaptation allows the stylus to change its functionality based on the operational context, enabling it to provide both precise pointing (standard mode) and comprehensive media control (air mouse mode) as needed
2Ease of operation
If the stylus enters air mouse mode, then the stylus can implement laser pen functions for precise control, but requires additional mode switching mechanisms
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically detects when screen casting is active and triggers the air mouse mode without requiring manual user configuration. The electronic device monitors the casting state and autonomously switches the stylus to the appropriate operational mode, eliminating the need for users to manually configure complex settings while still providing access to enhanced functionality

AI summary
An air mouse mode implementation method includes establishing, by an electronic device, a communication connection to a stylus through BLUETOOTH, sending, by the electronic device, notification information to the stylus through the communication connection when detecting a screen casting event of the electronic device, where the notification information instructs to enter an air mouse mode, receiving, by the electronic device, a determining instruction from the stylus through the communication connection, entering, by the electronic device, the air mouse mode based on the determining instruction, and modifying, from an arrow icon to a dot icon and by the electronic device, an indication icon corresponding to the stylus.
