Touch Gesture Recognition for Communication App Triggering
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic devices with touch screens require multiple selecting actions to trigger communication applications, which complicates the process and negatively impacts user experience.
Innovation Solution
A communication application triggering method that detects a touch track or touch point on a touch sensor and matches it with standard models, allowing for the automatic triggering of corresponding communication applications with a single operation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If menu selection method is used to trigger communication applications, then communication applications can be triggered, but multiple selecting actions are required which complicates the process
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-configures standard touch track models and their corresponding communication applications. When a user performs a touch operation, the system compares the touch track against these pre-defined models to automatically determine which communication application to trigger, eliminating the need for multi-step menu selection.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically identifies and triggers the appropriate communication application based on the touch track pattern without requiring user intervention through menus. The electronic device serves itself by interpreting touch gestures and autonomously launching the corresponding application.
2Ease of operation
If multiple selecting actions are required to trigger communication applications, then application triggering can be achieved, but user experience is negatively impacted
Solution Approach 1:
The system skips intermediate menu selection steps by directly comparing touch tracks with standard models and immediately triggering the corresponding communication application. This rushes through the triggering process in a single operation rather than requiring multiple sequential actions.
3Extent of automation
If touch track matching with standard models is implemented, then communication applications can be triggered with single operation, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system changes the parameter recognition approach by analyzing touch track parameters (position, direction, length) and matching them against standard model parameters. This automated parameter-based recognition enables single-operation triggering while managing system complexity through structured data comparison.

AI summary
The present invention discloses a communication application triggering method and an electronic device. A communication application triggering method is applied to an electronic device that has a touch sensor, where the method includes: detecting a touch track or touch point on the touch sensor after an object is selected or is called; and matching the detected touch track or touch point with at least one standard model; and if the matching is successful, and the object can be used as a sent object of a communication application that corresponds to the successfully matched standard model, triggering the communication application that corresponds to the successfully matched standard model, and adding the object as a to-be-sent object of the communication application, where different communication applications correspond to different standard models. Technical solutions of embodiments of the present invention are useful for simplifying a communication application triggering mechanism and improving user experience.
