  • Publication number: 20240241587
    Abstract: This application discloses a palm-based human-computer interaction method performed by a computer device. The method includes: obtaining, by a palm-based interaction device, sensor data of a palm that is captured by at least two proximity sensors, the at least two proximity sensors being disposed in an array on the palm-based interaction device; recognizing a hovering interaction action of the palm based on the sensor data of the palm that is captured by the at least two proximity sensors; and performing a response operation for the hovering interaction action. This application provides a new interaction manner. A proximity sensor recognizes a hovering interaction operation performed by a palm, so that a user can control a palm-based interaction device without touching or any physical contact. This improves efficiency of interaction.
