Abstract

本发明涉及在便携式设备中对用户行为的感测和自动响应。这里描述的各种方法和设备涉及这样的设备:在至少某些实施例中,这些设备可以包括一个或多个用于提供与用户行为有关的数据的传感器和至少一个处理器,该至少一个处理器用于使设备基于至少部分地通过传感器所确定的用户行为来进行响应。设备的响应可以包括设备状态的改变,并且响应可以在用户行为被确定之后自动执行。

Description

在便携式设备中对用户行为的感测和自动响应
技术领域
本发明涉及便携式设备的领域,具体涉及用于感测或确定用户行为并对用户行为进行响应的系统和方法。
背景技术
诸如蜂窝电话之类的便携式设备正变得越来越普遍。这些便携式设备随着时间而变得更加复杂,并入了许多特征,例如包括MP3播放器能力、web浏览能力、个人数字助理(PDA)能力等。
然而,这些便携式设备的电池寿命可能是有限的。通常,电池功率的主要汲取是用于这些便携式设备的显示设备,特别是可用于对显示设备进行照明的背光。在许多目前的便携式设备中,用于照明显示器的示例性过程10在图1中示出。在该过程中,当如操作12所示,用户将键输入(keyinput)输入到便携式设备中时,背光被激活(例如,被开启以生成光)。响应于激活背光而在操作14启动计时器,并且便携式设备在操作16确定是否发生了计时器的超时。如果便携式设备在操作18接收到用户键输入,则计时器重新启动(在操作14),并且过程如上所述地继续。如果便携式设备在计时器计数时未接收到用户输入,则将发生超时并且背光在操作20被停用。
另外,用户经常不经意地在便携式设备的输入设备上输入键输入,这可能使得电话执行用户无意执行的操作。例如,由于用户意外地接触输入设备上的键,背光可能点亮、电话号码可能被拨打、铃声设定可能被改变等等。输入的不经意输入对于触摸屏设备是特别烦人的,尤其是在用户将便携式设备紧靠用户耳朵放置时可能接收不经意输入的触摸屏设备。
发明内容
这里描述的各种方法和设备涉及这样的设备:在至少某些实施例中,这些设备可以包括一个或多个用于提供与用户行为有关的数据的传感器(例如,接近度传感器)和至少一个处理器,该至少一个处理器用于使设备基于至少部分地通过传感器所确定的用户行为来进行响应。设备的响应可以包括设备状态的改变,并且响应可以在用户行为被确定之后自动执行。
根据发明的一个实施例,一种方法包括在设备处接收来自至少一个传感器(例如接近度传感器)的数据,分析该数据以确定设备用户的行为,以及响应于该分析而修改设备的至少一个设定,例如与如何处理来自输入设备的输入数据有关的设定。该设备可以是诸如蜂窝电话之类的电话、集成的电话和媒体播放器、或者其他类型的可包括传感器和处理来自传感器的数据的逻辑的设备,并且输入设备可以是键区或者多点触摸输入板。传感器可以是各种传感器中的任何一种,这些传感器例如包括接近度传感器、温度传感器、加速度计、光传感器、位置确定设备、定向确定设备、射频电磁波传感器、触摸输入板、运动传感器或者声音传感器。在某些实施例中,该设备可以包括一起向至少一个处理器提供数据的多个传感器,该处理器分析该数据以确定用户的行为。在至少某些实施例中,分析可以使用人工智能处理,该处理包括对从一个或多个传感器得出的数据与阈值进行比较;例如,来自接近度传感器的数据可与阈值相比较,该阈值代表设备的一部分与用户的耳朵或头部之间的距离。来自传感器的数据可以代表传感器所检测到的模拟值;该模拟值可以表明各种模拟值中的任何一种,这些模拟值例如包括距离、温度、光强度、对运动或定向的测量、对声音强度的测量或者RF电磁测量。在至少某些实施例中,可能需要人工智能处理以接收数据并从一组可能的解释中选择对数据的解释,并且所选择的解释进而将用于决定如何修改上述至少一个设定。被修改的设定可以是各种设定中的任何一种,这些设定例如包括显示器照明器的设定、声音输入或声音输出参数的设定、与接收用户输入有关的输入设备的状态的设定、通信参数的设定、处理器的设定或者设备模式(例如,蜂窝电话模式或媒体播放器模式)的设定。
还描述了执行前述方法中的一种或多种的各种设备和在被处理系统执行时使处理系统执行这些方法的机器可读介质。
根据本发明的另一个实施例,一种操作具有铰链的便携式设备的方法包括:感测铰链的状态,当铰链的状态表明便携式设备处于张开配置时分析来自接近度传感器的数据,以及响应于该分析而修改便携式设备的至少一个设定。在至少某些实施例中,当铰链的状态表明便携式设备处于闭合配置时,来自接近度传感器的数据被忽略或者不被处理以确定用户的头部或耳朵是否在接近度传感器附近;此外,当处于该闭合配置时,接近度传感器被置于降低功耗状态。这些方法中的一种或多种的实现方式可由蜂窝电话执行,该蜂窝电话通常包括第一壳体、第二壳体、将第一壳体耦合到第二壳体的铰链、检测铰链状态的铰链状态检测器、接近度传感器、以及耦合到接近度传感器并耦合到铰链状态检测器的至少一个处理器。
还描述了其他方法、设备和机器可读介质。

媒体播放器上的拨轮(click wheel)输入设备、触摸屏输入设备、按钮设备、可移动指点输入设备或者其他输入设备。媒体选择设备可用于选择存储在存储设备和/或远程存储设备上的媒体。在至少某些实施例中,便携式媒体播放器可以包括耦合到媒体处理系统以显示如下媒体的标题或其他指示符的显示设备:该媒体是通过输入设备所选择的,并且通过扬声器或(一个或多个)耳机呈现、或者在显示设备上呈现、或者既在显示设备上也在扬声器或(一个或多个)耳机上呈现。便携式媒体播放器的示例在公开号为2003/0095096和2004/0224638的美国专利申请中有所描述,这两个申请通过引用结合于此。
这里描述的发明的实施例可以是其他类型的数据处理系统的一部分,这些数据处理系统例如是娱乐系统或个人数字助理(PDA)、通用计算机系统、专用计算机系统、另一设备内的嵌入式设备、不包括媒体播放器的蜂窝电话、或者将这些设备的方面或功能相组合的设备(例如,在一个便携式设备中,诸如
Figure G2007800397705D00061
之类的媒体播放器与PDA、娱乐系统和蜂窝电话结合)。
图2图示出根据本发明一实施例的便携式设备30。图2示出具有“块糖”样式的电话配置形式的无线设备。在图2中,无线设备30可以包括壳体32、显示设备34、输入设备36(可以是字母数字键区(keypad))、扬声器38、麦克风40和天线42。无线设备30还可以包括接近度传感器44和加速度计46。将会认识到,图2的实施例可以使用更多或更少的传感器,并且可以具有与图2所示的形状因数(form factor)不同的形状因数。
显示设备34被示出为位于壳体32的上部,并且输入设备36被示出为位于壳体32的下部。天线42被示出为在壳体32的上部从壳体32延伸。扬声器38也被示出为位于显示设备34上方的壳体32的上部。麦克风40被示出为位于输入设备36下方的壳体32的下部。可以理解,扬声器38和麦克风40可以位于壳体上的任何位置,但通常分别根据用户的耳朵和嘴来布置。接近度传感器44被示出为在扬声器38处或者在扬声器38附近,并且至少部分在壳体32内。加速度计46被示出为位于壳体32的下部并且在壳体32内。可以理解,上述特征的特定位置可以在替代实施例中有所不同。
显示设备34例如可以是不能接受输入的液晶显示器(LCD),或者同样包括LCD的触摸输入屏。输入设备36例如可以包括按钮、开关、拨号盘、滑块(slider)、键或键区、导航板、触摸板、触摸屏等。
任何公知的扬声器、麦克风和天线可分别用作扬声器38、麦克风40和天线42。
接近度传感器44可以检测对象相对于无线设备30的位置(例如X、Y、Z)、方向、速度、定向(例如滚动、俯仰、偏航)等。在至少某些实施例中,对象相对于无线设备的位置可被表示为距离。接近度传感器可以生成位置或运动数据或这二者,这些数据可用于确定对象相对于便携式设备30和/或接近度传感器44的位置。接近度传感器的一个示例在图7A中示出。
另外,处理设备(未示出)耦合到(一个或多个)接近度传感器44。处理设备可用于基于接近度传感器44所提供的位置和/或运动数据来确定对象相对于便携式设备30或接近度传感器44或相对于这二者的位置。接近度传感器可以连续或周期性地监视对象位置。接近度传感器可以还能够确定其检测的对象的类型。
关于接近度传感器的其他信息可在题为“PROXIMITY DETECTOR INHANDHELD DEVICE”的美国专利申请No.11/241,839和题为“PROXIMITY DETECTOR IN HANDHELD DEVICE”的美国专利申请No.11/240,788;2005年6月23日提交的题为“METHODS ANDAPPARATUS FOR REMOTELY DETECTING PRESENCE”的美国专利申请No.11/165,958;以及2003年6月24日授权的题为“PROXIMITY/TOUCH DETECTOR AND CALIBRATION CIRCUIT”的美国专利No.6,583,676中找到,所有这些专利申请和专利通过引用全部结合于此。

从接近度传感器44和加速度计46获得的数据可被组合在一起或者单独使用,以收集关于用户行为的信息。来自接近度传感器44、加速度计46或这二者的数据例如可用于激活/停用显示背光、发起命令、作出选择、控制显示器中的卷动(scrolling)或其他运动、控制输入设备的设定、或者对设备的一个或多个设定作出其他改变。
图3示出与图2所图示的便携式设备30类似的替代便携式设备30a。图3所示的便携式设备30a与图2所示的便携式设备30的不同之处可以在于接近度传感器44a(图3)位于麦克风40处或者在麦克风40附近。
图4示出根据本发明一实施例的便携式设备50。便携式设备50可以包括壳体52、显示/输入设备54、扬声器56、麦克风58和可选的天线60(该天线可在壳体的外部可见或者可以隐藏在壳体内)。便携式设备50还可以包括接近度传感器62和加速度计64。便携式设备50可以是蜂窝电话、集成了PDA和蜂窝电话的设备、集成了媒体播放器和蜂窝电话的设备、或者既作为娱乐系统(例如用于玩游戏)又作为蜂窝电话的设备,或者,便携式设备50可以是这里描述的任何其他类型设备。在一个特定实施例中,便携式设备50可以包括蜂窝电话、媒体播放器和PDA,它们都包含在壳体52内。便携式设备50可以具有这样的形状因数:该形状因数足够小从而其可以适合放在正常成年人的手中,并且足够轻从而其可以由成年人在一只手中携带。可以理解,术语“便携式”表示设备可容易地在成年用户的手(一只或两只)中握持;例如,膝上型计算机和iPod是便携式设备。
在一个实施例中,显示/输入设备54除了是显示器(诸如LCD)之外,还可以包括多点触摸输入屏。在一个实施例中,多点触摸输入屏是电容性感测介质,该电容性感测介质被配置为检测同时发生在触摸板平面上的不同位置处的多个触摸(例如,用户的面部或多个手指同时触摸到或几乎触摸到显示器而在出现在显示器上的斑点(blob))或接近触摸(例如显示器上的斑点),并被配置为针对多个触摸中的每一个来产生代表这些触摸在触摸板的平面上的位置的不同信号。关于多点输入触摸屏的其他信息可在2004年5月6日提交的共同在审美国专利申请No.10/840,862(见公开的美国专利申请20060097991)中找到,该申请通过引用全部结合于此。多点输入触摸屏也可以称为多点触摸输入板。
处理设备(未示出)可耦合到显示/输入设备54。处理设备可用于计算触摸板上的触摸。显示/输入设备54可以使用检测到的触摸(例如,由用户面部产生的一个或多个斑点)数据来例如识别某些对象的位置并且还识别触摸(或接近触摸)显示/输入设备54的对象的类型。
从接近度传感器62和显示/输入设备54获得的数据可被组合,以收集关于这里描述的用户行为的信息。来自接近度传感器62和显示/输入设备54的数据可用于改变便携式设备50的一个或多个设定,例如改变显示/输入设备54的照明设定。
在一个实施例中,如图4所示,显示/输入设备54占据便携式设备50的壳体52的一个表面(例如,上表面)的大部分。在一个实施例中,显示/输入设备54基本上消耗便携式设备50的整个前表面。在另一个实施例中,显示/输入设备54例如消耗便携式设备50的壳体52的前表面的至少75%。在替代实施例中,便携式设备50可以包括不具有输入能力的显示器,但该显示器仍然占据便携式设备50的一个表面的大部分。在这种情况下,便携式设备50可以包括从便携式设备50的一部分滑出或转出的其他类型的输入设备,例如QWERTY键盘或其他类型的键盘。
图5A和5B图示出根据本发明一实施例的便携式设备70。便携式设备70可以是包括铰链87的蜂窝电话,铰链87将显示器壳体89耦合到键区壳体91。铰链87使得用户能够打开和关闭蜂窝电话,以使得蜂窝电话可被置于图5A和5B所示的两种不同配置中的至少一者。在一个特定实施例中,铰链87可旋转地将显示器壳体耦合到键区壳体。具体而言,用户可以打开蜂窝电话以将其置于图5A所示的张开配置,并且可以关闭蜂窝电话以将其置于图5B所示的闭合配置。键区壳体91可以包括接收来自用户的输入(例如,电话号码输入或者其他字母数字输入)的键区95和接收来自用户的语音输入的麦克风97。显示器壳体89在其内表面上可以包括显示器93(例如LCD)、扬声器98和接近度传感器84;在其外边面上,显示器壳体89可以包括扬声器96、温度传感器94、显示器88(例如另一LCD)、环境光传感器92和接近度传感器84A。因此,在该实施例中,显示器壳体89可以包括其内表面上的第一接近度传感器和其外表面上的第二接近度传感器。第一接近度传感器可用于检测用户的头部或耳朵在第一接近度传感器的某一距离内,并用于使显示器93和88的照明设定响应于该检测而自动改变(例如,用于两个显示器的照明被关掉或者设定于降低功率状态)。来自第二接近度传感器的数据与来自环境光传感器92的数据和来自温度传感器94的数据一起可用于检测蜂窝电话已被置于用户的口袋中。
在至少某些实施例中,便携式设备70可以包含提供无线通信设备(诸如蜂窝电话)、媒体播放器、娱乐系统、PDA或者这里描述的其他类型设备的功能中的一种或多种的组件。在实施例的一种实现方式中,便携式设备70可以是与播放MP3文件(例如MP3音乐文件)的媒体播放器集成的蜂窝电话。
图2、3、4、5A和5B示出的各个设备可以是诸如蜂窝电话之类的无线通信设备,并且可以包括多个提供无线通信能力的组件。图6示出包括无线通信能力的无线设备100的一个实施例。无线设备100可以包括在图2、3、4、5A和5B所示的任何一个设备中,但是图2-5B的那些设备的替代实施例可以比无线设备100包括更多或更少的组件。

无线设备100还可以包括耦合到数字处理系统的存储设备104,用于为无线设备100存储数据和/或操作程序。存储设备104例如可以是任何类型的固态或磁存储设备。
无线设备100还可以包括一个或多个耦合到数字处理系统103的输入设备105,用于接收用户输入(例如,电话号码、名字、地址、媒体选择等)。输入设备105例如可以是与显示设备相结合的键区、触摸板、触摸屏、指点设备中的一者或多者,或者类似的输入设备。
无线设备100还可以包括至少一个耦合到数字处理系统103的显示设备106,用于显示经由输入设备105所选择的信息,例如消息、电话呼叫信息、联系信息、图像、电影和/或媒体的标题或其他指示符。显示设备106例如可以是LCD显示设备。在一个实施例中,显示设备106和输入设备105可以一起集成在同一设备(例如,与诸如LCD显示设备之类的显示设备集成的诸如多点触摸输入板之类的触摸屏LCD)中。集成在一起的触摸输入板和显示器的示例在美国公开的申请No.20060097991中示出。显示设备106可以包括背光106a以在某些情况下对显示设备106照明。可以理解,无线设备100可以包括多个显示器。
无线设备100还可以包括电池107以向系统的组件提供操作功率,这些组件包括数字RF收发器102、数字处理系统103、存储设备104、输入设备105、麦克风105A、音频换能器108、媒体处理系统109、(一个或多个)传感器110和显示设备106。电池107例如可以是可再充电或不可再充电的锂或镍金属氢化物电池。

在一个实施例中,数字RF收发器102、数字处理系统103和/或存储设备104可以包括一个或多个布置在印刷电路板(PCB)上的集成电路。
图7A和7B图示出根据本发明实施例的示例性接近度传感器。可以理解,在替代实施例中,可以使用诸如电容性传感器或类似声纳的传感器之类的其他类型的接近度传感器,而非图7A和7B所示的接近度传感器。在图7A中,接近度传感器120包括发射器122、检测器124和窗126。发射器122生成红外(IR)频带的光,并且例如可以是发光二极管(LED)。检测器124被配置为检测光强度的改变,并且例如可以是光电晶体管。窗126可以是由透明或半透明材料形成的。在一个实施例中,窗126是声网(acoustic mesh),例如通常在便携式设备的麦克风或扬声器上看到的网。在其他实施例中,窗126可以是MicroPerf、以网格形式缠绕的IR透明绞线束或者冷光镜(cold mirror)。
在操作期间,当对象128出现在窗126之上时,来自发射器122的光射在该对象上并散射。来自发射器的光可被以具有已知频率的方波脉冲发射,从而使得检测器124能够区分环境光和被对象(例如用户的头部、耳朵或用户口袋中的材料)反射回检测器124的来自发射器122的光。所散射的光的至少一部分被朝着检测器124反射。光强度的增大被检测器124所检测,并且这被处理系统(图7A中未示出)解释为表示检测器124的短距离内存在对象。如果不存在对象或者对象离检测器124超过某一距离,则不足的或者较少量的发射光被朝着检测器124反射回去,并且这被处理系统(图7A中未示出)解释为表示对象不存在或者对象在较大距离处。在每种情况下,接近度传感器测量反射光的强度,该强度与反射了光的对象和检测器124之间的距离有关。
在一个实施例中,发射器122和检测器124被布置在便携式设备的壳体内,如以上参考图2-5B所述。
在图7B中,接近度传感器的发射器122和检测器124彼此向内倾斜,以改善对反射光的检测,但图7B的接近度传感器在其他方面以类似于图7A的接近度传感器的方式操作。
可以理解,发明的实施例所使用的至少一些传感器可以确定或提供代表模拟值的数据。换言之,数据代表可以是一组可能值中的任何一个的值,这组可能值可以连续或基本连续地变化,而不是从一个值到下一个值具有量子化的、离散的跳跃的离散值。此外,数据所代表的值可以不是预定的。例如,在由接近度传感器测量距离的情况下,距离不是预定的,这与键区上代表预定值的键的值是不同的。例如,接近度传感器可以确定或提供代表可按模拟方式连续或几乎连续变化的距离的数据;在这种接近度传感器的情况下,距离可以对应于源自接近度传感器的发射器的反射光的强度。温度传感器可以确定或提供作为模拟值的、代表温度的数据。诸如环境光传感器之类的光传感器可以确定或提供作为模拟值的、代表光强度的数据。诸如加速度计之类的运动传感器可以确定或提供代表对运动的测量(例如,速度、加速度或者这二者)的数据。陀螺仪可以确定或提供代表对定向的测量(例如,俯仰、偏航或滚动的量)的数据。声音传感器可以确定或提供代表对声音强度的测量的数据。对于其他类型的传感器,传感器所确定或提供的数据可以代表模拟值。
图8示出根据本发明至少一个实施例可使用的来自传感器的各种输入和可执行的动作的图。这里所描述的任何一个设备(包括图2、3、4、5A和5B所示的设备)可以根据图8所表示的人工智能的使用而操作。图8左侧的一个或多个输入是从设备的各种传感器接收的,并且被输入到人工智能(AI)逻辑中。图8右侧的一个或多个动作可由AI逻辑响应于输入的任何组合而自动实现。在该实施例的一种实现方式中,在数据被一个或多个传感器感测之后几乎立即实现动作。
图8的示例性输入例如可以包括接近度数据、接近度数据和斑点检测数据(例如,来自多点触摸输入屏)、接近度数据和加速度计数据、加速度计数据和斑点检测数据、接近度数据和温度数据、接近度数据和环境光数据、以及许多其他可能的组合。
图8的示例性动作例如可以包括关掉便携式设备的显示器的背光、抑制用户在用户接口处输入的能力(例如,锁定输入设备)、改变电话的模式等等。可以理解,AI逻辑也可以实现以上动作的组合。例如,AI逻辑可以既关掉显示器的背光又抑制用户在用户接口处输入的能力。
图8的AI逻辑执行AI(人工智能)处理。在某些实施例中,AI处理可以在没有具体的、有意的用户输入的情况下被执行,或者在没有用户输入(例如键输入,所述用户输入具有与其相关联的预定数据)的情况下被执行。图8的AI逻辑所执行的人工智能处理可以使用各种传统的AI逻辑处理,包括对数据的模式识别和/或解释。例如,AI逻辑可以接收来自一个或多个传感器的数据并将数据与一个或多个阈值相比较,并且基于这些比较来确定如何解释数据。在一个实施例中,阈值可以代表与从接近度传感器中的光强度测量得出的值相比较的距离。代表大于阈值的距离的光强度测量表明对象(反射了发射器的光)不在附近,并且代表小于阈值的距离的光强度测量表明对象在附近。此外,输入数据可经过至少两种解释(例如,来自接近度传感器的数据表明用户的头部在传感器附近,则关掉背光,或者来自接近度传感器的数据表明用户的头部不在附近,则使背光留在显示计时器的控制下),并且AI处理试图从这至少两种解释进行选择以挑选出预测用户行为的解释。响应于该解释(例如,选择一种解释),AI逻辑使得动作被如图8所示地执行,其中该动作可以修改设备的一个或多个设定。在至少某些实施例中,AI逻辑可以执行如下的AI处理:该AI处理解释来自一个或多个传感器的数据(该解释要求AI处理在至少两种可能的解释当中进行选择)并且既基于对传感器数据的解释又基于设备的当前状态来选择动作(例如,修改设备的设定);图11A所示的方法是与设备的当前状态(例如,用户当前是否在通过设备中的电话通信)和对传感器数据(图11A的情况下是接近度数据)的解释有关的信息的使用示例。
在某些实施例中,AI处理可以对传感器数据执行传统的模式识别方法。例如,设备和用户耳朵之间的距离的改变率可以具有一模式(例如,当用户将设备移近其耳朵时表示出减速),并且距离改变率的该模式可通过模式匹配算法来检测。短语“人工智能”在全文中都用于表示:根据从一个或多个传感器可得的数据可以得出关于设备用户的使用模式的结论(不管是显式还是隐式的)。该结论可在设备中表达出来或者也可以不表达出来(例如“用户在通过电话交谈”),但该结论将被映射到具体动作或对设备的设定,这些具体动作或对设备的设定在用户以这种方式使用设备时将是适当的。例如,电话可被预编程为使得每当其检测到(1)语音在被输入到麦克风中、(2)电话连接到网络并且(3)接近度传感器被激活,则屏幕背光将被变暗。这种预编程可以涉及简单的逻辑(例如,简单的组合逻辑),但仍然在这里使用的人工智能的范围内。尽管本发明可以使用学习、统计分析、迭代和其他复杂的AI方面,但是对于所考虑的基本人工智能而言这些不是必需的。同样,词“分析”并不意味着深奥的统计分析或其他分析,而是可以涉及仅对单个阈值或数据的观察。
在至少某些实施例中,AI处理可通过耦合到一个或多个传感器的处理器或处理系统(例如数字处理系统103)来执行,这一个或多个传感器提供的数据形成AI处理的输入。可以理解,AI处理可以是图10和11A-11F所示的一个或多个方法的一部分。
在至少某些实施例中,根据那些方法中的任何一种而操作的设备除了一个或多个传感器之外还可以具有至少一个被设计为接收有意的用户输入(例如,这些用户输入指定了具体的用户输入项目)的输入设备(例如,键区、键盘或者触摸输入板),所述一个或多个传感器与这至少一个输入设备是不同且分离的,并且这些传感器不被设计为接收有意的用户输入。实际上,用户甚至可能不知道设备上存在这一个或多个传感器。
图9A-C图示出基于由便携式设备的一个或多个传感器所获得的输入数据可确定的示例性用户行为。示例性用户行为包括但不限于用户直接看便携式设备(图9A)、用户在其耳朵处或耳朵附近握持便携式设备(图9B)、用户将便携式设备放在口袋或包中(图9C)等等。
关于可根据本发明实施例来监视的用户行为和/或姿势的其他信息在2004年7月30日提交的题为“GESTURES FOR TOUCH SENSITIVEINPUT DEVICES”的美国专利申请No.10/903,964和2005年1月18日提交的题为“MODE-BASED GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACES FORTOUCH SENSITIVE INPUT DEVICES”的美国专利申请No.11/038,590中得到公开,所有这些申请通过引用全部结合于此。
图10是图示出用于对关于便携式设备的某些用户行为自动进行响应的方法200的流程图。在一个实施例中,方法200包括但不限于:收集被设计为表明关于便携式设备的用户行为的传感器数据,以及响应于对用户行为的检测而执行机器可执行代码以执行一个或多个预定的自动化动作。
方法200可以通过图2、3、4、5A、5B、6和12所示的任何一个设备来执行,并且可以使用或者也可以不使用图8所示的人工智能处理。操作202从一个或多个传感器收集传感器数据;传感器数据提供关于用户行为的信息。例如,接近度传感器可以表明设备是否在用户耳朵附近;温度传感器、环境光传感器(或者差分环境光传感器)和接近度传感器可以一起表明设备在用户的口袋中;陀螺仪和接近度传感器可以一起表明用户在看设备。在操作204中,分析来自一个或多个传感器的数据;该分析可通过设备内的一个或多个处理器(包括一个或多个传感器内的处理器)执行。该分析试图基于传感器数据来预测用户行为。可以理解,在一些情况下,根据该分析进行的预测可能是错误的。例如,如果在用户握持设备时,用户将手指放在接近度传感器上,则这可能使得该分析错误地得出如下结论:设备在用户的头部或耳朵附近。在操作206中,可以至少部分地基于对来自一个或多个传感器的数据的分析,来调整一个或多个设备设定。该调整可以包括改变设备的照明设定或者这里描述的其他动作。
图11A-F图示出用于感测数据并对所感测的数据自动进行响应的示例性方法,并且这些方法可以通过图2、3、4、5A、5B、6和12所示的任何一个设备执行,并且可以使用或者也可以不使用图8所示的人工智能处理。可以理解,对所图示的方法可以作出若干变更,包括对所感测的数据、对数据的分析和对所感测的数据的(一个或多个)响应作出的变更。
图11A的方法包括可选的操作220,在操作220中,设备确定用户是否在通过设备内的电话通信。这可以通过本领域中已知的传统技术来执行,这些技术可以感测电话呼叫何时在进行或者用户何时在通过电话或其他通信设备以其他方式通信。在操作222中,从设备上的一个或多个接近度传感器接收接近度传感器数据。然后在操作224中,分析接近度传感器数据。例如,分析数据以确定对象(例如用户的耳朵或头部)是否在设备附近。该分析用于决定是否以及如何调整设备的设定,如操作226所示。可以基于对接近度传感器数据的分析并可选地基于用户是否在通过电话或其他通信设备通信,来自动调整设备的一个或多个设定。例如,如果接近度传感器表明设备在用户的头部或耳朵附近,并且已确定用户在通过电话通信,则设备确定用户在通过将设备靠近用户的耳朵(如图9B所示)而通过电话或其他通信设备进行交谈或以其他方式通信。在这种情形中,设备自动改变对来自一个或多个输入设备的数据进行处理的方式,例如抑制用户在输入设备(例如,设备上的键区或触摸输入板)上作出有意的输入的能力。除了抑制有意的输入之外,设备还可以自动调整设备的一个或多个显示器的功率设定。另一方面,如果设备确定用户并非在通过电话通信,并且同时接近度传感器表明对象在设备附近,则设备可以决定不修改显示器的照明设定并且不抑制用户在输入设备上输入有意的用户输入的能力。对输入的抑制可按多种方式之一进行。例如,可通过关掉或降低去往输入设备的功率以使得输入设备在该模式下不可操作,来抑制输入;在另一示例中,在处于该模式时可通过不处理任何由满功率的输入设备所接收的输入,来抑制输入;在又一示例中,输入不被作为有意的输入来处理,而是被处理以确认它们是由输入设备上的触摸或接近触摸所造成的“斑点”。在最后一个示例中,即使输入表现为对键(例如键区上的“3”按钮)或者其他用户接口项的激活,输入也不被作为对该键的激活而处理,而是被处理以确认是否是“斑点”。
图11B示出本发明实施例的一种方法,该方法涉及用于控制何时将来自输入设备的数据作为输入而处理以及何时将其作为有意的用户输入而忽略的技术。在操作230中,设备接收来自一个或多个传感器的运动数据。这些传感器可以包括加速度计、运动传感器或者其他类型的表明运动数据的传感器。这些传感器可被设计为对快速运动和慢速运动进行区分。在运动涉及高的加速度水平的情况下尤其如此。在该实施例中假定快速运动可以快到用户不可能有意输入用户输入,从而设备可以决定忽略在这种传感器表明运动快于阈值运动值时所发生的输入。在操作232中分析运动数据,以确定是否基于设备的运动而自动抑制用户输入键输入或其他输入的能力。在操作234中,设备可以响应于操作232中的分析而自动抑制用户在输入设备上进行输入的能力。
图11C涉及本发明的一个实施例,其中,对与设备的位置有关的数据和与设备的运动有关的数据进行分析,以确定是否调整设备的一个或多个设定。在操作260中,接收与设备的位置有关的数据;该数据例如可以由接近度传感器提供。在操作262中,还接收与设备运动有关的数据。该数据可以来自运动传感器或者来自加速度计。在操作264中,分析与位置有关的数据和与设备运动有关的数据,以确定是否调整设备的设定。该分析可按各种不同方式执行。例如,与设备运动有关的数据可以示出与当用户将设备从用户的口袋移到用户的头部时所发生的运动相匹配的运动模式。该分析还可以确定接近度数据或者其他与位置有关的数据,这些数据表明设备在运动几乎结束之前不在用户的头部或另一对象附近。在这种情形中,该分析将会确定用户已将设备从其口袋拿出并且将其抵靠用户耳朵放置。在操作266中,在没有任何有意的用户输入的情况下,基于该分析来自动调整设备的一个或多个设定。例如,可以对来自输入设备(例如触摸输入板)的数据的处理方式作出调整。例如,输入设备的输入不被作为有意的用户输入而处理,从而有效地抑制了输入。另外,可以调整显示器的照明设定。例如,如果操作264的分析确定用户已将设备从远离耳朵的位置移到接近耳朵的位置,则在一个实施例中,可以调整照明设定并且可以抑制用户向输入设备进行有意的输入的能力。
图11D示出本发明的一个实施例,其中,通过分析来处理与位置有关的数据和与温度有关的数据,以确定是否调整设备的一个或多个设备设定。在操作270中,接收与位置有关的数据,例如来自接近度传感器的数据。在操作272中,接收与温度有关的数据,例如温度数据或者温度差分数据。在操作274中,分析与位置有关的数据和与温度有关的数据,以确定是否调整设备的一个或多个设定。在操作276中,响应于操作274的分析而调整一个或多个设备设定。
图11E示出本发明的一个实施例,其中分析与设备的位置有关的数据和与设备的触摸输入板上的触摸有关的数据,以确定是否调整设备的设定。在该实施例中,在操作290中接收与装置的位置有关的数据,并且在操作292中接收与触摸输入板上的触摸有关的数据。与位置有关的数据可以来自接近度传感器。与触摸输入板上的触摸有关的数据可以来自多点触摸输入板,该多点触摸输入板能够检测在用户的面部被按靠触摸输入板或者以其他方式处在触摸输入板附近时所发生的多点触摸。在操作294中,分析与位置有关的数据和与触摸有关的数据,以确定是否调整设备的设定。作为该分析的结果,在操作296中,调整一个或多个设备设定。例如,调整可以包括自动降低去往显示器的背光的功率或者改变对来自触摸输入板的数据的处理方式,或者这两种调整都包括。
可以使用设备模式以确定是否或者如何调整设备的设定。设备的模式可以包括各种模式或情形中的任何一种,例如扬声器电话模式或非扬声器电话模式、电池供电模式或非电池供电模式、呼叫等待模式或非呼叫等待模式、设备可以发出声音(例如警报声)的报警模式等等。与用户行为有关的数据(例如,来自诸如接近度传感器之类的一个或多个传感器和/或能够检测由面部产生的斑点的触摸输入板的数据)被与设备的模式有关地分析,并且该分析试图确定是否调整设备的设定。可以基于所感测的用户行为和设备模式来调整一个或多个设备设定。例如,当接近度数据和可选的其他数据(例如,来自运动传感器和环境光传感器的数据)表明用户已将设备(在该情况下可以是电话)靠近用户的耳朵放置时,设备可自动从扬声器电话模式切换到非扬声器电话模式。在该示例中,在没有任何来自用户的、表明切换应当发生的有意输入的情况下,设备已自动从扬声器电话模式切换到非扬声器电话模式。另一种方法涉及根据设备是否在用户耳朵附近来调整报警或警报音量。在该示例中,如果与用户行为有关的数据表明设备接近用户的耳朵,并且如果设备模式被设定为警报或报警将使得设备发出声音,则设备将会自动把报警或警报的音量级从第一级别改变到不像第一级别那么大声的第二级别。
图11F示出本发明的一个实施例,其中,来自诸如铰链检测器之类的设备配置检测器用于确定如何处理来自设备上的一个或多个传感器的数据。在一个实施例中,图11F所示的该方法可以与图5A和5B所示的设备一起使用(并且图11F中所提及的接近度传感器可以是图5A的接近度传感器84)。具体而言,耦合到铰链87的铰链检测器可以检测设备是图5A所示的张开还是图5B所示的闭合。其他配置检测器可以表明滑出输入设备(例如,滑出键盘)或者其他类型的输入设备是否已被从设备的一部分拉出(或者转出)。在操作320中,设备确定来自铰链检测器的数据是否表明设备是张开的。如果设备不是张开的,则在操作322中,如果接近度传感器被布置在设备的内表面上,则来自接近度传感器的数据被忽略。可选地,例如通过在设备处于闭合状态时关掉接近度传感器,来降低去往接近度传感器的功率。如果在操作320中确定设备是张开的,则在操作324中,处理来自接近度传感器的数据以确定设备是否被置于对象(例如用户的耳朵)附近。如果从操作324的处理确定设备不在用户耳朵附近,则在操作326中,使对显示器被照明的时间进行控制的显示计时器继续运行。该显示计时器可以类似于图1的方法中所操作的显示计时器。如果在操作324中确定设备在用户耳朵附近,则在操作328中,降低去往显示器的照明器的功率。这可以通过将显示计时器的值设定为超时状态从而使得显示器的照明器被断电来执行。可以理解,图11F的方法可以通过在显示计时器运行完之前降低去往显示器的照明器的功率来节省额外的电池寿命。
可以理解,除了本发明的调整照明设定的至少某些实施例之外,也可以使用与图1所示的方法类似的方法。例如,在图11A所示的实施例中,已被启动(例如在图1的操作14中)的显示计时器可以在图11A所示的方法被执行的时候继续计数。显示计时器将在图11A的方法被执行的时候计数,直到其超时状态被达到为止,并且在这样做之后,显示计时器可以使得照明设定在图11A的方法完成之前被改变。在这种情况下,照明设定既受显示计时器控制,又受发明的至少某些实施例的一个或多个传感器控制,这些实施例使得基于对来自一个或多个传感器的数据的分析来调整照明设定。
短语“接近度传感器”在全文中用于表示能够检测对象是否在该传感器的某个距离内的传感器,例如电容性、温度、电感性、红外或其他各种传感器。这种检测的基本对象可以是用户(或者任何其他将会存在对显示屏的查看的对象)的头部。
本发明的任何实施例可以包括一个或多个用户接口控件,该控件使得用户能够弃置(override)一个或多个传感器引起的结果。例如,在接近度传感器已使得显示器进入降低的功耗状态之后,诸如按钮之类的控件可被用户按下以使得显示器返回全功率。在另一个示例中,用户接口控件可以是检测与设备的用户交互(例如,摇动设备)的传感器(或传感器组),例如加速度计,并且用户交互已被建立以使得由一个或多个传感器引起的状态被弃置。
本发明的某些实施例可以采用一个或多个提供与光有关的数据的光传感器,该数据被分析以确定是否调整设备(例如无线设备100)的一个或多个设定。环境光级别数据可以由环境光传感器提供,其表明该传感器周围的光强度的级别。可从布置在设备上不同位置处的两个或更多个环境光传感器获得环境光差分数据。例如,一个环境光传感器可以在设备的一侧,而另一个环境光传感器可以在设备的另一侧。光强度级别的差异可通过比较来自设备的两个不同侧或不同表面的这两个环境光传感器的数据来确定。存在对光传感器的各种可能使用。光传感器可以与接近度传感器一起使用以确定设备何时被放在口袋中,以使设备被设定在仅振动模式或者设定在具有可听响铃的振动模式。在另一个示例中,响应于光传感器而确定环境光很低,并可选地响应于用户在环境光很低时已将设备设定为可视地亮起以示出呼入,设备可以在较暗时自动被置于“光铃声”模式,以使得替代来自设备的可听铃声,显示器可视地闪光(例如,通过重复地打开和关掉背光)以表明呼入。光传感器的另一种示例性使用涉及将其用作警报,该警报表明昏暗的房间(或者环境)已变得更明亮(例如,太阳已升起或者昏暗的房间的门被打开以使光进入房间内)。光传感器也可以用于使设备在感测到低的环境光级别之后自动用作光源(例如,在效果上用作闪光灯)。
图12示出根据本发明实施例的设备的另一示例。该设备可以包括处理器(诸如微处理器402)和存储器404,它们通过总线406彼此耦合。设备400可以可选地包括耦合到微处理器402的缓存408。该设备还可以可选地包括通过总线406耦合到其他组件的显示控制器和显示设备410。一个或多个输入/输出控制器412也耦合到总线406以提供对输入/输出设备414的接口,并提供对用于感测用户行为的一个或多个传感器416的接口。总线406可以包括通过本领域公知的各种桥、控制器和/或适配器而彼此连接的一条或多条总线。输入/输出设备414可以包括键区、键盘或光标控制设备,例如触摸输入板。此外,输入/输出设备414可以包括用于有线网络或无线网络的网络接口(例如,RF收发器)。传感器416可以是这里描述的任何一种传感器,例如包括接近度传感器或环境光传感器。在设备400的至少某些实现方式中,微处理器402可接收来自一个或多个传感器416的数据,并且可按这里描述的方式执行对该数据的分析。例如,可通过人工智能处理或者以这里描述的其他方式来分析数据。作为该分析的结果,微处理器402然后可以自动使得对设备的一个或多个设定进行调整。
在前面的说明中,已参考本发明的具体示例性实施例描述了本发明。显然,可以对其作出各种修改而不脱离由所附权利要求给出的本发明的更宽广的精神和范围。因此,说明书和附图将被视为说明性而非限制性的。
