The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate embodiments consistent with the present disclosure and, together with the description, serve to explain the principles of the invention.

The implementations set forth in the following description of exemplary embodiments do not represent all implementations consistent with the invention.

To solve above-mentioned technical problems, the present disclosure provides a display control method. <FIG> is a flow chart illustrating a display control method according to an exemplary embodiment. The display control method is applicable to an electronic device. The electronic device may include a smart phone, a personal computer, a server, or the like. The electronic device may include a tactile sensor, a display screen, and a biometric sensor arranged below the display screen. A size of the biometric sensor is larger than a preset size.

The tactile sensor may include at least one of a touch-sensitive display screen, a pressure sensor, an infrared sensor, and a light sensor. The tactile sensor may collect touch signals according to a preset period and send the touch signals to a processor of the electronic device. When the tactile sensor is a touch sensor, the touch signal may be a hovering touch signal. The processor may identify attribute information of the touch signal to obtain sensing data. The attribute information may include at least one of a size, quantity, and a characteristic of the touch signal. To facilitate understanding, a touch-sensitive display screen, usually referred to as a capacitive touch screen or a capacitive screen, with a capacitive sensor provided in the display screen is used to describe the solutions of the embodiments.

The biometric sensor may include at least one of a fingerprint sensor, an iris sensor and an auricle sensor. The fingerprint sensor will be taken as an example of the biometric sensor to describe the solutions of the embodiments in the following.

As illustrated in <FIG>, a display control method, applied to an electronic device, may include steps at block <NUM> to block <NUM>.

At block <NUM>, at least one frame of sensing data representing motion of a target object relative to an electronic device is obtained.

In an embodiment, this can be achieved through a capacitive screen. An operating principle of the capacitive screen may be briefly described as the following. The capacitive screen creates a uniform electric field across a display screen. When a finger approaches or touches the display screen, a capacitance may be added to the display screen. Current from electrodes on the four sides of the display screen may flow to a touch point. Since current strength is proportional to a distance between the finger and an electrode, a position of the touch point may be calculated based on magnitudes of the current from the four electrodes. Based on this principle, the capacitive screen may collect a frame of touch signal according to a preset period and send the collected touch signal to a processor in the electronic device or store the collected touch signal in a local memory.

The processor in the electronic device may communicate with the capacitive screen or the local memory to obtain the touch signal. After that, the processor may process the touch signal. For example, processing each frame of touch signal may obtain a size, a position, or a characteristic (such as left, right, etc.) of an outline approached or touched by the target object, that is, a frame of sensing data may be obtained. For another example, processing multiple continuous frames of touch signals may identify a moving speed, a position, and a moving direction of the target object relative to the capacitive screen, to obtain a frame of sensing data. The closer the acquisition time of each frame of touch signal to the acquisition time of the latest touch signal that the capacitive screen can sense, the better the sensing data is, and the better it can reflect the movement of the target object relative to the electronic device.

In an embodiment, a cyclic storage area may be preset in the local memory. The cyclic storage area may be divided into at least one sub unit. Each sub unit is successively stored with one frame of sensing data according to a chronological sequence of acquisition time of the sensing data. After sensing data is stored in the last sub unit, a next frame of sensing data may cover the sensing data in the first sub unit, and so on. In this way, the processor may read the cyclic storage area according to a preset time interval or whenever the sensing data in the memory is updated to obtain required sensing data.

At block <NUM>, a to-be-identified region on the electronic device is predicted according to the sensing data.

In an embodiment, the processor may predict the to-be-identified region based on the sensing data obtained at block <NUM>. The to-be-identified region refers to a region used for displaying preset information on the display screen. The preset information is configured to indicate to identify biometric information of the target object, for example, indicating the user to press his/her finger on the to-be-identified region to collect fingerprint information. The preset information may include one or more of a fingerprint icon, a light spot, and boundary of the to-be-identified region, which may be set according to specific scenarios. For example, the foregoing preset information may include a fingerprint icon or boundary of the to-be-identified region, which is applicable to a scenario where a fingerprint sensor is realized by a capacitive sensor or an ultrasonic sensor. For another example, in addition to the fingerprint icon and boundary of the region to be identified, the foregoing preset information may also include a light spot, which is applicable to a scenario where the fingerprint sensor is realized by an optical sensor.

In an embodiment, the target object may be used to control the display screen in a far-to near way (non-contacting) as shown in <FIG>, where, a finger moves from point A to point B, and point C is a predicted target position. The to-be-identified region <NUM> is generated by taking the point C as a central position. This is applicable to a scenario where a tactile sensor in the electronic device is a touch-sensitive display screen, an infrared sensor, or a light sensor. At this time, as illustrated in <FIG>, predicting the to-be-identified region may include the following. At block <NUM>, the processor may predict a target position where the target object is in contact with the electronic device according to the sensing data. The target object may be a human finger pulp, a human toe pulp, or a nose of a cat or a dog. The target object contains a biological characteristic that can uniquely reflect the target object. At block <NUM>, the processor may determine the to-be-identified region according to the target position. A size of the target position may be set according to an area of a preset part of the target object. For example, when the preset part is the finger pulp, the area of the to-be-identified region may be greater than or equal to an area of a thumb pulp, to facilitate accommodating each finger of the user.

For the action at block <NUM>, determining the to-be-identified region may include the following manners.

In a first manner, a preset shape and a preset size of the to-be-identified region may be pre-stored in the electronic device. The preset shape may be one of a circle, a rectangle, and an eye shape. The above-mentioned preset size is used to determine the size of the to-be-identified region, and may be set according to a size of the target object. After the target position is determined, a region with the preset size and the preset shape may be obtained by taking the target position as the center, and the region with the preset shape is determined as the to-be-identified region. For example, when the preset shape is a circle and a preset radius is R, a circle may be obtained based on the target position and the preset radius R, and the circle is the to-be-identified region.

In a second manner, as illustrated in <FIG>, at block <NUM>, the processor may obtain a plurality of sub regions (such as <NUM> pixels * <NUM> pixels) contained in a target region on the electronic device, and obtain a central position of each sub region. The target region is a region where the preset information is able to be displayed on the electronic device. For example, the target region may be a display area <NUM> facing the fingerprint sensor in the display screen, and the sub region may be obtained by dividing the above-mentioned target region. A division method can be regular division or random division. The central position of each sub region is determined during division. For example, when the sub regions are regularly divided, an intersection position of diagonals of a sub region may be taken as the central position of the sub region. For another example, when the sub regions are irregularly divided, a barycenter position of a sub region may be taken as the central position of the sub region. At block <NUM>, the processor may obtain a distance between the target position and the central position of each sub region. The above-mentioned distance may be Euclidean distance. A distance between two points may be calculated according to the coordinates of the target position and the central position and Euclidean distance calculation formula. At block <NUM>, the processor may sort all the sub regions according to the distances, and a sub region corresponding to a minimum distance is determined as the to-be-identified region.

In a third manner, the processor may obtain a plurality of sub regions contained in the target region, and obtain a central position of each sub region. An obtaining manner for obtaining the plurality of sub regions may refer to the above block <NUM>. Then, the processor may predict which sub region the target object may fall into, and the sub region that the target object may fall into is the to-be-identified region.

In another embodiment, the target object may operate the display screen in a way of swiping from one side to the other (contacting) as shown in <FIG>, where a finger swipes from point A to point B, and point C is a selected target position on a movement trajectory. The to-be-identified area <NUM> is generated by taking the point C as a central position. This is applicable to a scenario where a tactile sensor in the electronic device is a touch-sensitive display screen, a pressure sensor, an infrared sensor, or a light sensor. At this time, as illustrated in <FIG>, determining the target position may include the following. At block <NUM>, the processor may determine a historical movement trajectory and a current moving direction of the target object based on the sensing data. For example, the processor may determine a position of the target object according to each frame of sensing data, and obtains a piece of historical movement trajectory generated by the target object and a current moving direction according to the positions of a certain part of the target object in multiple continuous frames of sensing data and corresponding collection time. The multiple continuous frames of sensing data include sensing data collected at current time. The historical movement trajectory may be a trajectory AB as shown in <FIG>. At block <NUM>, the processor may predict a target movement trajectory has not been generated by the target object according to the historical movement trajectory and the current moving direction. The target movement trajectory may be a trajectory BC as shown in <FIG>. At block <NUM>, the processor may determine the target position based on the target movement trajectory. For example, the processor may select a point with a certain distance from the target object on the target movement trajectory as the target position. A specific method of determining the to-be-identified region based on the target position is the same as that at block <NUM>, and will not be repeated here.

At block <NUM>, the preset information is displayed in the to-be-identified region, and the preset information is configured to indicate to input biometric information of the target object.

In an embodiment, the processor may control the display screen to display the preset information in the to-be-identified region, such as displaying an icon and/or a light spot for indicating entry of biometric information in the to-be-identified region, an effect may be as shown in <FIG> and <FIG>. In this way, when the user touches the display screen, the preset information may be displayed in the to-be-identified region immediately. Alternatively, a to-be-identified position may be predicted in advance, and the preset information may be displayed first, and then the user may just drop the finger naturally, instead of determining the position of displaying the preset information during a falling process of the finger until touching the screen. Alternatively, the finger may fall into the to-be-identified position just by slightly adjusting on the basis of a direction of its natural fall, i.e., adjusting referring to the position of displaying the preset information. The fingerprint sensor located under the display screen may collect fingerprint information, i.e., biometric information. After the fingerprint information is collected, the processor may also perform matching with a pre-stored fingerprint module to implement functions such as fingerprint information entry, fingerprint unlocking, and payment matching.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the at least one frame of sensing data representing motion of the target object relative to an electronic device may be obtained, the to-be-identified region on the electronic device may be predicted according to the sensing data, and the preset information is displayed in the to-be-identified region. The preset information is configured to indicate to input the biometric information of the target object. In this way, with this embodiment, the to-be-identified region may dynamically change with the sensing data, thus there is no need for the target object to input the biometric information at a fixed preset position, which is beneficial to improve the experience of using the information entry function. In addition, the time for displaying the preset information in the to-be-identified region may be earlier than the time when the target object reaches the to-be-identified region, so as to achieve the effect of guiding the target object to press the preset information, thus further enhancing the experience of using the information entry function.

The solution of the above display control method is described below in combination with an embodiment in which a user uses a mobile phone to achieve fingerprint unlocking. The solution includes the following.

A large area of fingerprint sensors is provided in the mobile phone. A target region corresponding to the fingerprint sensors on the display screen is divided into several sub regions in advance. A size of each sub region may be set to <NUM> pixels * <NUM> pixels. A position with two pieces of preset information (a fingerprint icon and a light spot) lighted up is defined as shown in <FIG>. If a finger falls within a range of A to B, the fingerprint icon and the light spot may be displayed in region M. If the finger falls within a range of B to C, the fingerprint icon and the light spot may be displayed in region M.

When the user picks up the mobile phone, an effect is shown in <FIG>. The processor may distinguish the left hand or the right hand according to the sensing data collected by the capacitive screen, predict the to-be-identified position, and light up the fingerprint icon and light spot in the corresponding region to guide the user to perform unlocking. The effect is shown in <FIG>, where (b) shows a solution of displaying the fingerprint icon and the light spot in the region M, and (c) shows a solution of displaying the fingerprint icon and the light spot in region N.
