  • Publication number: 20240004492
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a touch device, a display device, and a processor. The processor includes a built-in operating system with a user mode and a kernel mode. The user mode includes a touch application module, a control interface module, and an image application module. The kernel mode includes a main driver module and a secondary driver module. The secondary driver module performs preliminary behavior analysis processing on a sensing signal, and then transmits the sensing signal to the touch application module, to obtain corresponding touch data and transmit the touch data to the control interface module. The control interface module generates a display instruction according to the touch data. The image application module generates image data according to the display instruction. The main driver module receives and processes the image data to generate a display image, to directly transmit the display image to the display device.

  • Patent number: 11762495
    Abstract: This application provides an electronic device, including: a processor, configured to select one of an absolute coordinate mode and a relative coordinate mode according to a switching instruction. When the processor uses the absolute coordinate mode, absolute coordinate information received by the processor is run in the absolute coordinate mode; and when the processor uses the relative coordinate mode, the absolute coordinate information received by the processor is converted into relative coordinate information and is run in the relative coordinate mode. Therefore, this application performs adaptive conversion between the absolute coordinate mode and the relative coordinate mode, to provide users with more flexible operations.
