  • Patent number: 9762065
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method and a device for controlling electronic devices. The method includes the following steps. According to a triggering signal, a first control signal is generated for controlling a first electronic device to execute a first action. After that, based on whether the first electronic device executes the first action, a first feedback signal is generated. When the first feedback signal indicates that the first electronic device executes the first action, a second control signal is generated for controlling a second electronic device to execute a second action. Therefore, the method and the device of the present invention provide interaction and simultaneous control between the device and a plurality of electronic devices.

  • Publication number: 20090235281
    Abstract: A handheld electronic device, an input device and an input method thereof, and a display device and a display method thereof are provided. A display interface in the display device is divided into at least two portions so as to display the operation images of different application programs in the display interface at the same time. The operation images of the application programs are operated by using a single directional input interface of the input device. In the present invention, the function described above can be achieved without modifying the application programs by using only one touch screen including a display interface and a directional input interface. Thereby, the hardware cost of the handheld electronic device and the complexity for implementing the application programs of the handheld electronic device can be both reduced.
