Abstract

An information processing method and an electronic device are described. The method is applied to an electronic device and includes obtaining first track data of a motion of an operating body with respect to the electronic apparatus, and obtaining first identification data of the operating body; deriving first input data corresponding to the first identification data and the first track data; and the electronic apparatus responding to the first input data.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An information processing method applied to an electronic apparatus, the method comprising:
obtaining first track data of a motion of an operating body with respect to the electronic apparatus, and obtaining first identification data of the operating body, by obtaining a first texture of the operating body via a texture acquiring unit of the electronic apparatus, the first identification data being the first texture;
obtaining a first movement parameter in relation to the motion of the operating body;
deriving first input data corresponding to the first identification data and the first track data by determining a first standard texture that matches the first texture from among standard textures based on the first texture and the first movement parameter; and determining the first input data based on the first standard texture; and
the electronic apparatus responding to the first input data.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the obtaining first track data comprises obtaining first track data of the operating body via a touch control unit of the electronic apparatus.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein obtaining a first texture of the operating body via the texture acquiring unit of the electronic apparatus comprises detecting that a movement speed of the operating body is less than a predetermined threshold, and then acquiring the first texture via the texture acquiring unit.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the first standard texture comprises:
generating a first corrected texture based on the first movement parameter and the first texture; and
determining a standard texture that matches the first corrected texture as the first standard texture; or
generating analog textures based on the first movement parameter and the standard textures; and
determining an analog texture that matches the first texture as a first analog texture, the first standard texture corresponding to the first analog texture.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the obtaining first track data comprises:
acquiring at least two frames of image that includes the operating body via an image acquiring unit, wherein any two frames among the at least two frames are acquired at different time; and
determining the first track data according to a position change of the operating body from the at least two frames of image; and
the obtaining first identification data comprises: acquiring an image of the operating body via the image acquiring unit; and
determining the first identification data from the acquired image.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first input data comprises instruction data for controlling the electronic apparatus.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the instruction data comprises an instruction to adjust a brightness of the electronic apparatus.

8. The method of claim 2 , wherein obtaining the first track data comprises recording a position parameter of a contact point between the operating body and the touch control unit and a movement direction parameter of the contact point.

9. An electronic apparatus, comprising:
a processor;
a memory; and
computer program instructions stored in the memory and when being run by the processor, cause the processor to:
obtain first track data of a motion of an operating body;
obtain first identification data of the operating body;
obtain first input data corresponding to the first identification data and the first track data; and
respond to the first input data, wherein the processor obtains a first texture of the operating body via a texture acquiring unit of the electronic apparatus, the first identification data being the first texture and the processor obtains a first movement parameter in relation to the motion of the operating body, and determines a first standard texture that matches the first texture from among standard textures based on the first texture and the first movement parameter and determines the first input data based on the first standard texture.

10. The electronic apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the processor obtains first track data of the operating body via a touch control unit of the electronic apparatus.

11. The electronic apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the processor detects that a movement speed of the operating body is less than a predetermined threshold, and then acquires the first texture via the texture acquiring unit.

12. The electronic apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the processor generates a first corrected texture based on the first movement parameter and the first texture; and determines a standard texture that matches the first corrected texture as the first standard texture; or generates analog textures based on the first movement parameter and the standard textures; and determines an analog texture that matches the first texture as a first analog texture, the first standard texture corresponding to the first analog texture.

13. The electronic apparatus of claim 12 , wherein the processor acquires at least two frames of image that includes the operating body via an image acquiring unit, wherein any two frames among the at least two frames are acquired at different time; determines the first track data according to a position change of the operating body from the at least two frames of image; and acquires an image of the operating body via the image acquiring unit; and determines the first identification data from the acquired image.

14. The electronic apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the processor records a position parameter of a contact point between the operating body and the touch control unit, and a movement direction parameter of the contact point.

15. The electronic apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the first input data comprises instruction data for controlling the electronic apparatus.

16. The electronic apparatus of claimed in claim 15 , wherein the instruction data is an instruction to adjust a brightness of the electronic apparatus.
