Detailed ways

Embodiments of the present application provide a display method of a folding screen and an electronic device. It can be applied to scenarios such as taking photos, video calls, playing multimedia or live broadcasting. Based on the user's first operation, switching between the two on-screen display interfaces can be realized, so that the user can view/operate the first interface or the second interface from a better angle.

The method provided by the embodiment of the present application may be applied to an electronic device including a folding screen, where the folding screen can be folded to form at least two screens. For example, the folding screen can be folded along a folding edge or folding axis to form a first screen and a second screen. In practical applications, electronic devices with folding screens can be divided into two categories, one is electronic devices with folding screens that are folded outwards, and the other is electronic devices with folding screens that are folded inwards. Wherein, taking the first screen and the second screen formed after the electronic device is folded as an example, after the electronic device folded outwards is folded, the first screen and the second screen are opposite to each other. After the electronic device folded inward is folded, the first screen and the second screen are opposite to each other. In this embodiment of the present application, the first screen may be called an A screen, and the second screen may be called a B screen.

For example, please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a schematic diagram of a product form of an electronic device 100 that is folded outward according to an embodiment of the present application. (a) in FIG. 1 is a schematic view of the electronic device 100 folded outward when it is fully unfolded. The electronic device 100 can be folded along the folding edge in the direction shown in (a) of FIG. 1 to form the first screen and the second screen shown in (b) of FIG. (c) of FIG. 1 shows the form of the fully folded electronic device 100 , the first screen and the second screen of the electronic device 100 are opposite to each other after the electronic device 100 is completely folded.

It can be understood that when the electronic device is in the folded state, the interface can be displayed on the first screen or the second screen; when the electronic device is in the unfolded state, the interface can be displayed on the first screen and the second screen. Wherein, for the introduction of the unfolded state and the folded state of the electronic device, reference may be made to the description in the following embodiments, which will not be described here.

For another example, please refer to FIG. 2 , which is a schematic diagram of a product form of an electronic device 100 that is folded inward according to an embodiment of the present application. (a) of FIG. 2 is a schematic view of the electronic device 100 folded inward when it is fully unfolded. The electronic device 100 can be folded along the folded edge in the direction shown in (a) in FIG. 2 to form the first screen and the second screen shown in (b) in FIG. Figure 2 (c) shows the form of the fully folded electronic device 100. After the electronic device 100 is completely folded, the first screen and the second screen are opposite, and the first screen and the second screen are invisible to the user. In FIG. 2 201 shown in (c) is a line on the plane where the first screen and the second screen are in contact. In addition, the electronic device that is folded inward may further include a third screen, and the third screen is arranged on the back of the first screen or the second screen. It can be understood that, for an electronic device that is folded inward, when in a folded state, the third screen is visible to the user. When the electronic device is in the folded state, the interface can be displayed on the third screen; when the electronic device is in the unfolded state, the interface can be displayed on the first screen and the second screen.

In FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the folding screen of the electronic device 100 is folded vertically, that is, the folding screen is folded into two left and right screens (namely A screen and B screen) according to the vertical folding edge on the folding screen. In the embodiment of the present application, the folding screen of the electronic device 100 may also be folded horizontally, that is, folded into two upper and lower screens (ie screen A and screen B) according to the horizontal folding edge on the folding screen. For example, as shown in (a) in Figure 3, the folding screen is folded sequentially along the folding edges in the transverse direction of the folding screen to form (b) in Figure 3, (c) in Figure 3/(d) in Figure 3 shown.

Wherein, in some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 100 may be provided with a display screen on the back of the first screen or the second screen, which may be called a third screen. For example, as shown in (d) in FIG. 3 , a C screen (third screen) may be provided on the back of the A screen (the first screen), and the C screen may be on the same side as the rear camera on the electronic device 100 .

In some embodiments, the folding screen of the electronic device 100 may surround the electronic device 100, and the above-mentioned A screen (first screen), B screen (second screen), and C screen (third screen) may all be the folding screen a part of. Wherein, when the folding screen is folded, the A screen can face away from the C screen, and the A screen can be adjacent to the B screen.

It should be noted that the at least two screens formed by folding the electronic device in the embodiment of the present application (including the electronic device folded inward and the electronic device folded outward) may be multiple screens that exist independently, It can also be a complete screen of one-piece structure, which is only folded to form at least two parts.

For example, the folding screen may be a flexible folding screen. The flexible folding screen includes folding edges made of flexible materials. Part or all of the flexible folding screen is made of flexible materials. The at least two screens formed after the flexible folding screen is folded are a complete screen of an integral structure, but are folded to form at least two parts.

For another example, the folding screen of the electronic device may be a multi-screen folding screen. The multi-screen folding screen may include multiple (two or more) screens. The multiple screens are individual display screens. These multiple screens can be connected sequentially by folding shafts. Each screen can rotate around the folding axis connected to it to realize the folding of multi-screen folding screens.

In the embodiment of the present application, the value range of the angle α between the A screen and the B screen of the folding screen of the electronic device 100 is [0°, 180°]. Among them, if α∈[0°, P1], the electronic device 100 can determine that the folding screen is in a fully folded state; if α∈(P1, P2), the electronic device 100 can determine that the folding screen is in a half-folded state; α∈[P2, 180°], the electronic device 100 may determine that the folding screen is in a fully unfolded state. Wherein, 0°<P1<P2<180°. P1 and P2 can be understood as preset angle thresholds. In this embodiment of the present application, P1 may be referred to as a first angle threshold, and P2 may be referred to as a second angle threshold. P1 and P2 may be determined according to the habits of a large number of users using folding screens; or, P1 and P2 may be set by users in the electronic device 100 .

In some embodiments, according to the usage habits of most users, when the angle α between the A screen and the B screen is greater than 100°, the user wants to use the A screen and the B screen as a whole (that is, as a complete display screen) The possibility is high. When the angle α between the A screen and the B screen is less than 80 degrees, the user is more likely to want to use the A screen or the B screen alone, and the folding screen can be in a fully folded state. When the angle α between the A screen and the B screen is between 80 degrees and 100 degrees, the user is more likely to use the A screen and the B screen to display different display content, and the folding screen can be in a half-folding state.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the value range of the preset angle threshold P1 may be (0, 80°], and the value range of the preset angle threshold P2 may be [100°, 180°). For example, the preset angle threshold P1 may be 75°, and the preset angle threshold P2 may be 105°. The above examples are only for explaining the present application and should not be construed as limitations.

Exemplary, the electronic equipment in the embodiment of the present application can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a desktop, a laptop, a handheld computer, a notebook computer, an ultra-mobile personal computer (ultra-mobile personal computer, UMPC), a netbook, and a cellular Phones, personal digital assistants (personal digital assistant, PDA), augmented reality (augmented reality, AR)\virtual reality (virtual reality, VR) equipment, car machines and other equipment including folding screens, the embodiment of the present application is specific to the equipment The form is not particularly limited.

The electronic device 100 can determine the included angle between adjacent screens according to the measured angle change of the orientation of each screen, and then determine whether the electronic device 100 is in a fully unfolded state or a half-folded state.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the folding screen of the electronic device 100 (such as the above-mentioned display screen 494 ) can be folded to form multiple screens. Each screen may include a gyro sensor (such as the aforementioned gyro sensor 480B) for measuring the orientation (ie, the direction vector of the orientation) of the corresponding screen. For example, with reference to the above-mentioned FIG. 1 , the display screen 494 of the electronic device 100 can be folded to form an A screen and a B screen, and the A screen and the B screen both include a gyroscope sensor 480B for measuring the A screen and the B screen respectively. towards. The electronic device 100 may determine the included angle between adjacent screens according to the measured angle change of the orientation of each screen.

Exemplarily, the folding screen of the electronic device 100 can be folded to form screen A and screen B shown in FIG. 5 . The A screen is provided with a gyro sensor A, and the B screen is provided with a gyro sensor B. In the embodiment of the present application, here, the gyro sensor A measures the orientation of the A screen (ie, the direction vector of the orientation), the gyro sensor B measures the orientation of the B screen (ie, the direction vector of the orientation), and the principle of the electronic device 100 according to the A screen The principle of calculating the angle α between the A screen and the B screen is described.

Wherein, the coordinate system of the gyroscope sensor is a geographic coordinate system. As shown in Figure 6, the origin O of the geographic coordinate system is located at the point where the carrier (i.e., the device containing the gyroscope sensor, such as the electronic device 100) is located, the x-axis points east (E) along the local latitude, and the y-axis points along the local meridian Pointing north (N), the z-axis points upward along the local geographic vertical and forms a right-handed rectangular coordinate system with the x- and y-axes. Wherein, the plane formed by the x-axis and the y-axis is the local horizontal plane, and the plane formed by the y-axis and the z-axis is the local meridian plane. Therefore, it can be understood that the coordinate system of the gyro sensor is: with the gyro sensor as the origin O, the x-axis pointing east along the local latitude, the y-axis pointing north along the local meridian, and pointing upward along the local geographic vertical line ( That is, the opposite direction of the geographic vertical line) is the z-axis.

The electronic device can use the gyro sensor provided in each screen to measure the direction vector of the orientation of each screen in the coordinate system of the gyro sensor provided therein. For example, referring to the side view of the electronic device as shown in FIG. 5 , the direction vector of the A screen measured by the electronic device in the coordinate system of the gyroscope sensor A is vector z1, and the direction vector of the B screen in the coordinate system of the gyroscope sensor B is The direction vector of the orientation in is the vector z2. Electronic equipment utilizes formula (1):

便可计算出向量z1与向量z2的夹角θ。

Then the angle θ between the vector z1 and the vector z2 can be calculated.

Also according to FIG. 5 , since the vector z1 is perpendicular to the A screen, and the vector z2 is perpendicular to the B screen, the angle α between the A screen and the B screen can be obtained as α=180°-θ. That is, the electronic device obtains the direction vector of the orientation of the screen A in the coordinate system of the gyro sensor A (ie, vector z1) and the direction vector of the orientation of the screen B in the coordinate system of the gyro sensor B (ie, vector z2) according to the measurement. , the angle α between screen A and screen B can be determined.

It should be noted that although the positions of the gyro sensors set on screen A and screen B do not overlap, that is, the origins of the coordinate systems of the gyro sensors on screen A and B do not overlap, however, the x of the two coordinate systems axis, y axis, and z axis are parallel, so it can be considered that the coordinate systems of the gyroscope sensors set on the A screen and the B screen are parallel. In this way, although the vector z1 and the vector z2 are not in the same coordinate system, since the axes of the two coordinate systems are parallel, the angle θ between the vector z1 and the vector z2 can still be calculated by the above formula (1).

In some embodiments, one or more other sensors may also be used to measure the angle α between the A screen and the B screen. For example, an acceleration sensor may be set in each screen of the folding screen. The electronic device 100 (such as the processor 410) can use the acceleration sensor to measure the motion acceleration of each screen when it is rotated; then calculate the rotation angle of one screen relative to the other screen according to the measured motion acceleration, that is, the angle between A screen and B screen Angle α.

In actual application, the method provided by the embodiment of the present application can also be applied to other scenarios (for example: video call, etc.), Specifically, there is no limitation here.

The folding screen display method provided in the embodiment of the present application may be executed by an electronic device, or may be executed by components of the electronic device (such as a processor, a chip, or a chip system, etc.). The following electronic device is a mobile phone. The folding screen of the mobile phone is shown in Figure 3 above. The first screen is opposite to the second screen. B screen) and the scene of taking photos will be described as an example. As shown in FIG. 13 , the method for displaying the folding screen may include steps 1301 to 1304 , which are described below respectively.

Step 1301, determine that the folding screen is in a half-folded state.

For the description of the folding screen and the half-folding form, refer to the descriptions in the above-mentioned FIGS. 1 to 3 , and details will not be repeated here.

Optionally, the sensor module in the electronic device can identify whether the folding screen is in a fully unfolded state or a half-folded state, for example, an acceleration sensor and a gyroscope sensor are specifically used to identify and determine that the folding screen is in a half-folded state.

In the embodiment of the present application, the value range of the angle α between the first screen and the second screen of the folding screen of the electronic device is [0°, 180°]. As described above in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 , if α∈(P1, P2), the electronic device 100 may determine that the folding screen is in a half-folded state; wherein, 0°<P1<P2<180°. P1 and P2 can be understood as preset angle thresholds. In this embodiment of the present application, P1 may be called a first angle threshold, P2 may be called a second angle threshold, and the second angle threshold is greater than the first angle threshold. P1 and P2 may be determined according to the usage habits of a large number of users using folding screens; or, P1 and P2 may be set by users in electronic devices.

Optionally, according to the usage habits of most users, when the angle α between the first screen and the second screen is between 75 degrees and 145 degrees, the user wants to use the possibility of displaying different display contents on the first screen and the second screen higher.

Exemplarily, in the embodiment of the present application, the value range of the first angle threshold may be (0, 75°], and the value range of the second angle threshold may be [145°, 180°). For example, the first angle threshold may be 75°, and the second angle threshold may be 145°. The above examples are only for explaining the present application and should not be construed as limitations.

Optionally, when the angle α∈(P1, P2) between the first screen and the second screen on the electronic device is longer than a preset time (for example, 0.5 seconds), the electronic device can determine that the folding screen enters half-folded form.

Optionally, before this step 1401, when the electronic device is in a fully unfolded state, the electronic device may display an application interface on the folding screen in response to user operations (for example: powering on, clicking an application icon, etc.).

Exemplarily, take the user clicking the camera application icon as an example. As shown in FIG. 14 , when the folding screen of the electronic device is in a fully unfolded state, the display direction of the front camera of the electronic device and the folding screen are in the same direction. The electronic device can display the main interface 1401 in full screen on the folding screen. Wherein, the main interface 1401 displays a page on which application icons are placed, and the page includes a plurality of application icons (for example, a clock application icon, a calendar application icon, a gallery application icon, a note application icon, a file management application icon, an email App Icon, Music App Icon, Calculator App Icon, Video App Icon, Fitness App Icon, Weather App Icon, Browser App Icon, Smart Life App Icon, Settings App Icon, Voice Recorder App Icon, or App Store Icon, etc.) . A page indicator is also displayed under the multiple application icons to indicate the positional relationship between the currently displayed page and other pages. There are multiple tray icons (such as dialer application icons, message application icons, contacts application icons, and camera application icons 1402) below the page indicator, and the tray icons remain displayed when switching. In some embodiments, the above-mentioned pages may also include Multiple application icons and page indicators, the page indicator may not be a part of the page, but exist independently, and the above-mentioned tray icon is also optional, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application. A status bar 1403 can also be displayed on the upper part of the main interface 1401, and the status bar can 1403 include: one or more signal strength indicators of a mobile communication signal (referred to as a cellular signal), a battery status indicator, a time indicator etc.

Further, the electronic device may receive an input operation (for example, click) from the user on the camera application icon 1402, and in response to the input operation, the electronic device may turn on the camera and display the camera application interface 1501 as shown in FIG. 15 .

Step 1302, displaying the first interface on the first screen, and displaying the second interface on the second screen.

After the electronic device determines that the electronic device is in the half-folded state, it may display the first interface on the first screen and display the second interface on the second screen. Wherein, the first interface may be part or all of the display area on the first screen. Similarly, the second interface may also be part or all of the display area on the second screen. It can also be understood that the first screen displays a third interface in addition to the first interface, and the second screen displays a fourth interface in addition to the second interface, and the third interface is the same as or different from the fourth interface. That is, the follow-up is to switch part of the displayed content on the two screens.

In addition, the trigger condition of this step can be the action of the user directly opening the app in the half-folded state, or the action of opening the camera app in the fully unfolded state first, and then folding the folding screen to the half-folded state along the folded edge , not limited here.

In the embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device is in a half-folded state, there are various situations for the first interface and the second interface,

1. The first interface is used to display the picture captured by the camera, and the picture captured by the camera is the picture before receiving the shooting confirmation signal. The second interface is used to display options or a gallery related to setting the images captured by the camera.

2. The first interface and the second interface are interfaces of different levels in the same application (may be referred to as the first application). That is, the second interface is an interface at a higher level than the first interface; or, the second interface is an interface at a lower level than the first interface.

3. The first interface and the second interface are interfaces of different applications. That is, the first interface is the interface of the first application, the second interface is the interface of the second application, and the second application is different from the first application. The second application is any one of the one or more applications that have been run by the electronic device recently and have not been closed except the first application.

4. A description of the content displayed on the first screen and the second screen in the preceding scene.

It can be understood that the above-mentioned display contents of the first interface and the second interface, and the relationship between the first interface and the second interface are only examples, and in practical applications, there may also be other relationships (such as the first interface preset by the user and The second interface), the specific content displayed on the first interface and the second interface and the relationship between the first interface and the second interface are not limited in this application.

Exemplarily, continuing the above example, as shown in Figure 16, after the folding screen is converted from the fully unfolded form to the half-folded form, the folding screen is folded by the folding edge to form the first screen and the second screen, and the first screen and the second screen Can be used to jointly display the camera application interface. The first screen may display images captured by the camera, and the second screen may display options related to setting the images captured by the camera and/or a gallery, the gallery storing pictures acquired by the electronic device. The camera can be a front camera or a rear camera, and in the case of a selfie scene, the camera can be a front camera, that is, the camera can be located on the surface of the first screen or the second screen.

In the embodiment of the present application, the first screen and the second screen in the half-folded state may also include other application interfaces except the camera application interface. In addition, the interface content displayed jointly by the first screen and the second screen in the half-folded state may be more than the interface content displayed on the fully unfolded folded screen. The interface content displayed on the first screen and the second screen in the half-folded state can also be more than that displayed on the fully unfolded folded screen (that is, the subsequent switching of part of the displayed content in the two screens), which is not limited here.

Step 1303, detecting the user's first operation.

In the embodiment of this application, there are many situations for the first operation, which are described below:

In the first type, the first operation is a sliding operation along the first direction.

In this case, the electronic device detects the user's sliding operation on the folding screen (the first screen or the second screen), the sliding operation includes the first direction, the initial position of the sliding and the instant position, and the sliding operation is the user's finger Continuous operation away from the folding screen. Wherein, the first direction is a direction perpendicular to the folding edge on the folding screen, and the folding edge is used to divide the folding screen into a first screen and a second screen. In addition, the sliding operation may have an animation effect, that is, the first interface may move in the first direction along with the sliding operation.

Optionally, the distance between the initial position and the instant position (hereinafter referred to as the moving distance) is greater than or equal to a preset distance. In other words, if the movement distance is less than the preset sliding operation (for example: false touch, etc.), it is equivalent to not detecting the first operation of the user.

Furthermore, only the sliding operation in the preset area on the first screen or the second screen will be recognized by the electronic device as the first operation. It can prevent the user from accidentally touching when sliding.

Optionally, if the moving distance of the first interface is greater than or equal to the first threshold, it is determined that the first operation of the user is detected. Alternatively, when the sliding operation ends, if the area of the disappearing part of the first interface is greater than or equal to the first threshold, it is determined that the first operation of the user is detected.

As an example, take the slide operation on the first screen as an example. As shown in Figure 17, after the first interface is displayed on the first screen and the second interface is displayed on the second screen, switch between the two according to the actual needs of the user. The user can perform a sliding operation 1701 on the first screen, and the direction of the sliding operation 1701 can be toward or away from the folding edge. Specifically, there is no limitation here.

In the second type, the first operation is an operation where the user does not touch the folding screen.

1. User's gesture operation.

The gesture operation in the embodiment of the present application may be a palm swing corresponding to the front camera or the rear camera, a preset gesture, etc., which are not specifically limited here.

Optionally, the electronic device can acquire real-time images about the user through the front camera, and the front camera is located on the first screen or the second screen. If the real-time image includes a gesture operation, it is determined that the first operation is detected. It can be understood that the gesture operation can also be detected by using one or more sensors in the sensor module in FIG. 4 , which is not specifically limited here.

In addition, for gesture operations continuously issued by the user, the electronic device may determine that one gesture operation has been recognized.

As an example, take the gesture operation as an example of swinging in the horizontal direction (that is, the direction parallel to the folding edge), as shown in Figure 18, after the first interface is displayed on the first screen and the second interface is displayed on the second screen, according to the user To switch between the two interfaces on the two screens, the user can perform the air-swing gesture 1801 within the sensing area of the front camera (or one or more sensors in the sensor module in FIG. 4 ).

2. The user's tapping operation on the electronic device (tapping operation for short).

The tapping operation in the embodiment of the present application may refer to operations such as tapping the back of the electronic device (for example, tapping the back at least twice consecutively) or tapping the side edge of the electronic device, which is not specifically limited here.

Exemplarily, taking the tapping operation as an example of tapping the back at least twice continuously, as shown in Figure 19, after the first interface is displayed on the first screen and the second interface is displayed on the second screen, switch between the two according to the actual needs of the user. The user can perform continuous tap operation 1901 on the back of the electronic device.

3. The attitude angle of the electronic device changes (it can be understood that the electronic device detects that the user rotates the electronic device).

In this case, it can also be understood that when it is inconvenient for the user to operate the mobile phone with both hands, the gesture operation or the tap operation cannot be performed. For example, in extreme sports, the mobile phone is fixed on the selfie stick. When taking a photo from a top-down angle, if the preview window is on the first screen (for example, the upper half of the screen), the user needs to look up to view the preview window. There is a balance between good camera posture and viewing preview. If the mobile phone is folded and the image is switched to the second screen (for example, the lower half screen), the user's line of sight can observe the image preview window in the lower half screen more naturally, but At this time, the user cannot perform the above operations with both hands. Based on this, the switching command can also be triggered based on the gesture of the mobile phone.

Optionally, if the electronic device determines that the change value of the attitude angle of the electronic device is greater than or equal to the second threshold, it may determine that the first operation is detected. Wherein, the attitude angle includes a tilt angle (yaw, Y), a pitch angle (pitch, P) or a roll angle (roll, R).

Of course, you can also use the 3 degrees of freedom (DOF) pose-XYZ to determine the rotation of the electronic device. XYZ represents three translation axes, which can also be understood as X represents the left and right direction (or called "motion"), Y represents the front-to-back direction (or "wave"), and Z represents the up-down direction (or "lift").

Exemplarily, the posture angle and XYZ of the electronic device can be shown in Figure 20, after the first interface is displayed on the first screen and the second interface is displayed on the second screen, the two interfaces of the two screens can be switched according to the actual needs of the user , as shown in FIG. 21 , the user can trigger a switching instruction by rotating the electronic device, and the switching instruction is used for the electronic device to control the first screen to display the second interface and control the second screen to display the first interface. Specifically, there is no limitation here.

It can be understood that the situations of the above-mentioned first operations are just examples. In practical applications, there may be other situations for the first operation. For example, the first operation is the user’s voice input, or the first operation is the user’s Fingerprint contact on the back or side, etc., are not limited here.

Step 1304, in response to the first operation, display the second interface on the first screen, and display the first interface on the second screen.

After the electronic device detects the user's first operation, it may display the second interface on the first screen, and display the first interface on the second screen.

Exemplarily, the above examples are continued, and two examples are performed based on whether there is a third interface on the first screen.

For example: the first interface in step 1302 is the entire area of the display area on the first screen, and the second interface is the entire area of the display area on the second screen. As shown in Figure 22, it is the display situation of the folding screen before this step. As shown in FIG. 23 , it is the display situation of the folding screen after the electronic device responds to the first operation in this step. That is, the second interface is displayed on the first screen, and the first interface is displayed on the second screen.

Another example: in step 1302, the first interface is displayed on the first screen, and the second interface and the third interface are displayed on the second screen. As shown in Figure 24, it is the display situation of the folding screen before this step. As shown in FIG. 25 , it is the display situation of the folding screen after the electronic device responds to the first operation in this step. That is, the second interface is displayed on the first screen, and the first interface and the third interface are displayed on the second screen. That is, in this case, not all interfaces displayed on the first screen or the second screen are switched.

In the embodiment of the present application, in scenes such as taking photos, video calls, playing multimedia, live broadcasting, or in-vehicle. The content displayed on the first screen and the second screen (that is, the first interface and the second interface) are switched through the first operation of the user. Thus, the user can view/operate the first interface or the second interface from a better angle. On the one hand, the user can view the first interface from a better angle, or improve the user's operations on options on the second interface when the folding screen is in a half-folded state. On the other hand, by recognizing the user's sliding operation, gesture operation in the image, tapping operation on the back of the electronic device, and user's flipping operation on the electronic device, at least two on-screen display interfaces are switched and displayed, thereby realizing a Intelligent electronic equipment improves the performance of electronic equipment.
