  • Patent number: 11429191
    Abstract: An input method and a smart terminal device. After a processor in the smart terminal device determines, based on a first detection solution of a first infrared sensor, that a target object enters or leaves a first space range from a first plane, the processor starts or stops displaying a cursor based on distances measured by ultrasonic sensors; and after the processor determines, based on a second detection result of a second infrared sensor, that the target object enters or leaves a second space range from a second plane, the processor starts or stops performing a confirmation operation based on a location of the cursor.

  • Publication number: 20210117078
    Abstract: A gesture input method for a wearable device and a wearable device are disclosed. In an embodiment, a gesture input method includes collecting, by a sensor of the wearable device, a track of a movement of a user gesture in a track recognition area, wherein the track recognition area is a preset scan area of the sensor, and wherein the track recognition area comprises a gesture recognition area and a gesture sensing area located above the gesture recognition area and recognizing, by the sensor, the track in the gesture recognition area as input information based on area information of the track recognition area, wherein the area information comprises coordinate system information of the track recognition area.

  • Patent number: 10913426
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an automobile including a processor and a sensing apparatus, and the sensing apparatus is installed on a part that is of the automobile and that may be in contact with a hand of a driver, and includes a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter sends a sound wave signal to the hand of the driver, and the receiver receives a reflected sound wave signal reflected by the hand of the driver, converts the reflected sound wave signal to an electrical signal, and sends the electrical signal to the processor. The processor analyzes the electrical signal to obtain a feature of the reflected sound wave signal, and recognizes an identity of the driver based on the feature of the reflected sound wave signal.

  • Patent number: 10852873
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to pressure-sensitive detection apparatus. One example apparatus includes a pressure sensor array located in a touch display screen. One half-bridge circuit is constituted in each row of the pressure sensor array. When there is a touch input signal on the touch display screen, a first half-bridge circuit and a second half-bridge circuit corresponding to a touch location of the touch input signal output signals. A deformation amount generated when pressure is applied to a first pressure sensor component in the first half-bridge circuit is less than a deformation amount generated when the pressure is applied to a second pressure sensor component in the first half-bridge circuit, and a deformation amount generated when the pressure is applied to a first pressure sensor component in the second half-bridge circuit is greater than a deformation amount generated when the pressure is applied to a second pressure sensor component in the second half-bridge circuit.
