Wherein, when it is detected that the electronic device enters a call state, the touch sensitivity of the first touch area is adjusted so that the first touch area is in a floating touch state.

Wherein, the display screen 20 may be a capacitive touch screen, and the capacitive touch screen may be provided with two types of capacitance, ie mutual capacitance and self capacitance. Among them, mutual capacitance is to use ITO indium tin oxide semiconductor transparent conductive film on the glass surface to make horizontal electrodes and vertical electrodes. The intersection of two sets of electrodes will form capacitance, that is, these two sets of electrodes respectively constitute the two poles of capacitance. When a finger touches the touch screen, it affects the coupling between the two electrodes near the touch point, thereby changing the capacitance between the two electrodes. When detecting the mutual capacitance, the horizontal electrodes send excitation signals in turn, and all the vertical electrodes Receive signals at the same time to obtain the capacitance value of all horizontal and vertical electrode intersections, that is, the capacitance of the two-dimensional plane of the entire touch screen. According to the two-dimensional capacitance change data of the touch screen, the coordinates of each touch point can be calculated. Therefore, Even if there are multiple touch points on the screen, the real coordinates of each touch point can be calculated. Mutual capacitance can be used to achieve multi-touch detection, but the electric field of mutual capacitance is so small that the signal strength is so low that it cannot sense very weak signals, so when the sensing object (such as the user's finger) hovers on the screen , the mutual capacitance cannot sense the signal. Self-capacitance is a horizontal and vertical electrode array made of ITO on the glass surface. These horizontal and vertical electrodes respectively form capacitance with the ground, that is, the self-capacitance is the capacitance of the electrode to the ground; when the finger touches the capacitive screen, the capacitance of the finger will be It will be superimposed on the capacitance of the screen body to increase the capacitance of the screen body; during touch detection, the self-capacitance detects the horizontal and vertical electrode arrays in turn, and determines the horizontal and vertical coordinates respectively according to the changes in capacitance before and after the touch, and then combines them into a plane The touch coordinates; the self-capacitance scanning method is equivalent to projecting the touch points on the touch screen to the X-axis and Y-axis directions respectively, and then calculating the coordinates in the X-axis and Y-axis directions respectively, and finally combining them into the coordinates of the touch points. Among them, self-capacitance can generate a stronger signal than mutual capacitance, and can be used to detect farther sensing objects. For example, the sensing distance range of detecting fingers can reach 20mm.

Wherein, the display screen 20 also includes a first touch area 21 and a second touch area 22, the first touch area 21 is located at the top of the display screen 20, and the second touch area 22 is the screen 20 excluding the first Touch areas other than touch area 21.

In some embodiments, the first touch area 21 is provided with two types of capacitance, including mutual capacitance and self-capacitance; the second touch area 22 is provided with a type of capacitance, including mutual capacitance. For example, when the display screen 20 is powered on, the mutual capacitance between the first touch area 21 and the second touch area 22 is always in the working state, and the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 can be in the working state or in the dormant state. For example, the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 is generally in a dormant state. When it is detected that the electronic device 100 enters a call state, the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 starts to be powered on, and the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 is transferred from the dormant state to the working state, and the second touch area is enhanced. The electric field signal strength of the self-capacitance of a touch area 21 makes the first touch area 21 in a floating touch state. Further, when it is detected that the electronic device 100 exits the calling state, reduce the electric field signal strength of the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 or turn off the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 to make the first touch area 21 a contact. Touch state.

In some embodiments, the entire screen of the display screen 20 is provided with two types of capacitance at the same time, that is, the first touch region 21 and the second touch region 22 are simultaneously provided with mutual capacitance and self-capacitance. For example, when the display screen 20 is powered on, the mutual capacitance and self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 and the second touch area 22 are always in the working state. Capacitance, so that only the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 remains in the working state, and enhance the electric field signal strength of the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 to make the first touch area 21 a floating touch state, the second touch Area 22 is in contact touch state.

In some embodiments, the touch sensitivity of the first touch area can be increased independently, and the touch sensitivity of the second touch area can be kept unchanged.

For example, mutual capacitance and self-capacitance are set on the first touch area 21, and only mutual capacitance is set on the second touch area 22. For example, when the display screen 20 is powered on, the first touch area 21 and the second touch area 22 The mutual capacitance is always in the working state, and the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 can be in the working state or in the dormant state. For example, the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 is generally in a dormant state. When it is detected that the electronic device 100 enters a call state, the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 starts to be powered on, and the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 is transferred from the dormant state to the working state, and the second touch area is enhanced. The electric field signal strength of the self-capacitance of a touch region 21 makes the first touch region 21 in a floating touch state, and keeps the electric field signal strength of the mutual capacitance of the second touch region 22 unchanged.

For example, the first touch area 21 and the second touch area 22 are provided with mutual capacitance and self capacitance at the same time, for example, when the display screen 20 is powered on, the first touch area 21 and the second touch area 22 mutual capacitance and self capacitance The capacitor is always in the working state. When it is detected that the electronic device 100 enters the call state, the electric field signal strength of the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 is enhanced to make the first touch area 21 a floating touch state, and the second touch area 21 is kept The electric field signal strength of the mutual capacitance and the self capacitance of the region 22 does not change.

In some embodiments, the touch sensitivity of the first touch area can be adjusted up, and the sensitivity of the second touch area can be adjusted down.

For example, mutual capacitance and self-capacitance are set on the first touch area 21, and only mutual capacitance is set on the second touch area 22. For example, when the display screen 20 is powered on, the first touch area 21 and the second touch area 22 The mutual capacitance is always in the working state, and the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 can be in the working state or in the dormant state. For example, the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 is generally in a dormant state. When it is detected that the electronic device 100 enters a call state, the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 starts to be powered on, and the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 is transferred from the dormant state to the working state, and the second touch area is enhanced. The electric field signal intensity of the self-capacitance of a touch area 21 makes the first touch area 21 in a floating touch state, and reduces the electric field signal intensity of the mutual capacitance of the second touch area 22 .

For example, the first touch area 21 and the second touch area 22 are provided with mutual capacitance and self capacitance at the same time, for example, when the display screen 20 is powered on, the first touch area 21 and the second touch area 22 mutual capacitance and self capacitance The capacitor is always in the working state. When it is detected that the electronic device 100 is in the call state, the electric field signal strength of the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 is enhanced to make the first touch area 21 a floating touch state, and the second touch area 21 is reduced. The mutual capacitance of the region 22 and the electric field signal strength of the self capacitance. Or when it is detected that the electronic device 100 enters the call state, the electric field signal strength of the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 is enhanced to make the first touch area 21 in a floating touch state, and the self-capacitance of the second touch area 22 is turned off. , the self-capacitance of the second touch region 22 is restarted until the electronic device 100 exits the call state.

Step 102 , detecting a distance state between the user and the first touch area through the first touch area in the floating touch state.

Wherein, when the first touch area 21 enters the floating touch state, the distance state between the user and the first touch area 21 can be detected through the first touch area 21 in the floating touch state. For example, the distance state between the user's face or ear and the first touch area 21 is detected through the first touch area 21 in the floating touch state. For example, the distance state may include a proximity state, that is, it is detected that the user's face or ear approaches the first touch area 21 . The distance state may also include a far away state, that is, it is detected that the user's face or ear is far away from the first touch area 21 .

Step 103, in response to the distance state, controlling the electronic device to implement a control function corresponding to the distance state.

In some embodiments, the distance state includes an approach state, wherein in response to the distance state, controlling the electronic device to implement a control function corresponding to the distance state includes:

In response to the proximity state, the electronic device is controlled to turn off the display screen during a call.

For example, taking a mobile phone as an example, when the user holds the mobile phone for a call, when the mobile phone is close to the user's face, in response to the proximity state, the display screen of the mobile phone can be directly turned off during the call to save power.

For example, it is also possible to firstly control the display screen to lock when the approach state occurs, turn off the display screen when the far state does not occur within a few seconds after the lock screen, and turn on the display screen when the far state occurs. The time to turn off the display is adjusted to a few seconds after the lock screen occurs, in order to prevent too frequent changes of the approach state and the far state from causing the frequent switching of the display screen on and off, which has a certain protective effect on the service life of the display screen .

In some embodiments, the distance state includes a far state, wherein in response to the distance state, controlling the electronic device to implement a control function corresponding to the distance state includes:

In response to the far away state, the electronic device is controlled to turn on the display screen after the call ends.

For example, taking a mobile phone as an example, when the user holds the mobile phone to make a call, after the call ends and the mobile phone is far away from the user's face, in response to the far away state, the mobile phone is controlled to turn on the display screen after the call is over, so as to facilitate the user's use.

For example, when the far away state occurs during a call, it is also possible to first control the display screen to be bright but still in the lock screen, and to unlock the display screen when there is no approach state within a few seconds after the screen is bright, so that the user can use it during the call. Use other functions of the mobile phone during the process, such as looking up contact numbers.

All the above-mentioned technical solutions may be combined in any way to form optional embodiments of the present application, which will not be repeated here.

An electronic device with a display screen provided by an embodiment of the present application, the display screen includes a first touch area and a second touch area, the first touch area is located at the top of the display screen, by adjusting the touch of the first touch area of the display screen Sensitivity to make the first touch area in the floating touch state, detect the distance state between the user and the first touch area through the first touch area in the floating touch state, and control the electronic device to realize communication with the first touch area in response to the distance state The control function corresponding to the distance state. When the electronic device of the embodiment of the present application implements the proximity function, the touch sensitivity of the fixed area at the top of the display screen is adjusted to realize floating touch, and the touch signal of the display screen itself is used to realize the proximity function, so as to improve the control of the display screen by the electronic device. The accuracy of turning off the screen or turning on the screen can realize the proximity function of the proximity sensor by using the display screen under the condition of omitting the proximity sensor, which can improve the compactness of the structure and save the design cost.

Wherein, the display screen 20 includes a first touch area 21 and a second touch area 22, and the first touch area 21 is located at the top of the display screen 20;

Wherein, the control circuit 31 adjusts the touch sensitivity of the first touch area 21 to make the first touch area 21 in a floating touch state when detecting that the electronic device 100 enters a call state.

Wherein, the display screen 20 may be a capacitive touch screen, and the capacitive touch screen may be provided with two types of capacitance, ie mutual capacitance and self capacitance. Among them, mutual capacitance is to use ITO indium tin oxide semiconductor transparent conductive film on the glass surface to make horizontal electrodes and vertical electrodes. The intersection of two sets of electrodes will form capacitance, that is, these two sets of electrodes respectively constitute the two poles of capacitance. When a finger touches the touch screen, it affects the coupling between the two electrodes near the touch point, thereby changing the capacitance between the two electrodes. When detecting the mutual capacitance, the horizontal electrodes send excitation signals in turn, and all the vertical electrodes Receive signals at the same time to obtain the capacitance value of all horizontal and vertical electrode intersections, that is, the capacitance of the two-dimensional plane of the entire touch screen. According to the two-dimensional capacitance change data of the touch screen, the coordinates of each touch point can be calculated. Therefore, Even if there are multiple touch points on the screen, the real coordinates of each touch point can be calculated. Mutual capacitance can be used to achieve multi-touch detection, but the electric field of mutual capacitance is so small that the signal strength is so low that it cannot sense very weak signals, so when the sensing object (such as the user's finger) hovers on the screen , the mutual capacitance cannot sense the signal. Self-capacitance is a horizontal and vertical electrode array made of ITO on the glass surface. These horizontal and vertical electrodes respectively form capacitance with the ground, that is, the self-capacitance is the capacitance of the electrode to the ground; when the finger touches the capacitive screen, the capacitance of the finger will be It will be superimposed on the capacitance of the screen body to increase the capacitance of the screen body; during touch detection, the self-capacitance detects the horizontal and vertical electrode arrays in turn, and determines the horizontal and vertical coordinates respectively according to the changes in capacitance before and after the touch, and then combines them into a plane The touch coordinates; the self-capacitance scanning method is equivalent to projecting the touch points on the touch screen to the X-axis and Y-axis directions respectively, and then calculating the coordinates in the X-axis and Y-axis directions respectively, and finally combining them into the coordinates of the touch points. Among them, self-capacitance can generate a stronger signal than mutual capacitance, and can be used to detect farther sensing objects. For example, the sensing distance range of detecting fingers can reach 20mm.

For example, when the display screen 20 is powered on, the mutual capacitance and self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 and the second touch area 22 are always in the working state. When the control circuit 31 detects that the electronic device 100 enters the call state, the control circuit 31 Turn off the self-capacitance of the second touch area 22, so that only the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 remains in the working state, and enhance the electric field signal strength of the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 to make the first touch area 21 In the floating touch state, the second touch area 22 is in the contact touch state.

For example, the first touch area 21 and the second touch area 22 are provided with mutual capacitance and self capacitance at the same time, for example, when the display screen 20 is powered on, the first touch area 21 and the second touch area 22 mutual capacitance and self capacitance The capacitor is always in the working state. When the control circuit 31 detects that the electronic device 100 enters the call state, the control circuit 31 increases the electric field signal strength of the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 to make the first touch area 21 a floating touch. state, and keep the electric field signal strength of the mutual capacitance and self capacitance of the second touch area 22 unchanged.

In some embodiments, the control circuit 31 can increase the touch sensitivity of the first touch area 21 and decrease the sensitivity of the second touch area 22 .

For example, mutual capacitance and self-capacitance are set on the first touch area 21, and only mutual capacitance is set on the second touch area 22. For example, when the display screen 20 is powered on, the first touch area 21 and the second touch area 22 The mutual capacitance is always in the working state, and the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 can be in the working state or in the dormant state. For example, the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 is generally in a dormant state. When the control circuit 31 detects that the electronic device 100 enters a call state, the control circuit 31 controls the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 to start powering up, and transfers from the dormant state. Enter the working state, and enhance the electric field signal strength of the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 to make the first touch area 21 in a floating touch state, and reduce the electric field signal strength of the mutual capacitance of the second touch area 22.

For example, the first touch area 21 and the second touch area 22 are provided with mutual capacitance and self capacitance at the same time, for example, when the display screen 20 is powered on, the first touch area 21 and the second touch area 22 mutual capacitance and self capacitance The capacitor is always in the working state. When the control circuit 31 detects that the electronic device 100 enters the call state, the control circuit 31 increases the electric field signal strength of the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 to make the first touch area 21 a floating touch. state, and reduce the electric field signal strength of the mutual capacitance and self capacitance of the second touch region 22 . Or when the control circuit 31 detects that the electronic device 100 enters the call state, the control circuit 31 increases the electric field signal strength of the self-capacitance of the first touch area 21 to make the first touch area 21 in a floating touch state, and turns off the The self-capacitance of the second touch area 22 is not turned on again until the electronic device 100 exits the call state.

Wherein, when the first touch area 21 enters the floating touch state, the control circuit 31 can detect the distance state between the user and the first touch area 21 through the first touch area 21 in the floating touch state. For example, the control circuit 31 detects the distance state between the user's face or ear and the first touch area 21 through the first touch area 21 in the floating touch state. For example, the distance state may include a proximity state, that is, it is detected that the user's face or ear approaches the first touch area 21 . The distance state may also include a far away state, that is, it is detected that the user's face or ear is far away from the first touch area 21 .

In some embodiments, the distance state includes a proximity state, wherein the control circuit 31 is configured to control the electronic device 100 to turn off the display screen 20 during a call in response to the proximity state.

For example, taking a mobile phone as an example, when the user holds the mobile phone for a call, when the mobile phone is close to the user's face, in response to the approaching state, the display screen of the mobile phone can be directly turned off during the call to save power.

For example, it is also possible to first control the display screen to lock the screen when the approach state occurs, close the display screen when the away state does not occur within a few seconds after the lock screen, and turn on the display screen when the far state occurs. The time to turn off the display is adjusted to a few seconds after the lock screen occurs, in order to prevent too frequent changes of the approach state and the far state from causing the frequent switching of the display screen on and off, which has a certain protective effect on the service life of the display screen .

In some embodiments, the distance state includes a far state, wherein the control circuit 31 is configured to control the electronic device 100 to turn on the display screen 20 after the call ends in response to the far state.

For example, taking a mobile phone as an example, when the user is holding the mobile phone to make a call, after the call ends and the mobile phone is far away from the user's face, in response to the far away state, the mobile phone is controlled to turn on the display screen after the call is completed, so as to facilitate the user's use.

For example, when the far away state occurs during a call, it is also possible to first control the display screen to light up but still be in the lock screen, and unlock the display screen when there is no approach state within a few seconds after the screen is brightened, so that the user can use it during the call. Use other functions of the mobile phone, such as looking up contact numbers, etc.
