Embodiment
See also shown in Figure 1.Data input device of the present invention comprises that mainly a microprocessor 10 is electrically connected first digital camera 11, second digital camera 12, Vibration Sensor 13; One image generation device 14 is in order to project the image 20 for user's input operation; One mirror 15 places camera lens the place ahead of second digital camera 12, makes second digital camera 12 can absorb the image that is reflected by mirror 15; One light source 16 is in order to provide first digital camera 11, the required brightness of second digital camera, 12 picked-up images.Microprocessor 10 of the present invention also can be electrically connected an electronic product 80, utilizes the display 81 of electronic product 80 to demonstrate the image that camera absorbs.
Adjust the relative position of second digital camera 12, mirror 15 and image 20, make the horizontal optical axis of second digital camera 12 be parallel to the projecting plane of image 20, make second digital camera 12 can only absorb image 20 to its top very reference image 30 in the short-range, the strip image shown in Fig. 2 B.Because second digital camera 12 only can absorb the input pen image 221 in a bit of set distance range in keyboard image 21 tops, if leaving keyboard image 21 tops, input pen 22 surpasses the distance that sets, second digital camera 12 promptly can not absorb the image of input pen 22, and whether affirmation user that therefore can be more correct carries out input operation.
The present invention can absorb the reference image that the user utilizes finger or input pen 22 to carry out input operation on image 20 with the design of second digital camera 12 and mirror 15, in order to determine whether the user carries out input operation.If microprocessor 10 detects the reference image that second digital camera, 12 picked-up users touch image 20, the input image that microprocessor 10 just absorbs according to first digital camera 11, produce a corresponding input signal, the input field 221 of the keyboard of the image bottom of input pen 22 contact at this moment image 21.When for example first digital camera, 11 picked-up input pens 22 touched the input image of " T " input field 211, microprocessor 10 produced the input signal of one " T " word relatively.First digital camera 11, second digital camera 12 are formed a camera, utilize finger or input pen 22 carries out the input image of input operation on image 20 and with reference to image in order to the picked-up user.
The present invention utilizes the input pen image 22 of second digital camera, 12 picked-ups, can provide microprocessor 10 to confirm that input pen 22 touches the horizontal level of keyboard image 21, absorb the image of input pens 22 again via first digital camera 11, provide microprocessor 10 to confirm that input pens 22 touch the upright position of keyboard image 21, that input field 211 in can affirmation input pen 22 contact keyboard images 21 faster.And then can produce corresponding output information faster.Need not utilize the processor of high-speed computation function can produce the input information fast.
The present invention can utilize the light source 16 with specific glow color, shine finger or input pen 22 when user's input operation, make the image of first digital camera 11, second digital camera, 12 picked-up fingers or input pen 22, have particular color, have more identity.
The present invention also can make first digital camera 11, second digital camera 12 respectively in conjunction with the shade 111,121 of light source 16 glow color same colors, make image of its picked-up finger or input pen 22 more not be subjected to the influence of surround lighting evil.
The present invention also can make image generation device 14 project brighter light, to replace light source 16.Image generation device 14 is projected have the brighter light of particular color.
See also shown in Fig. 3 A, the 3B.The data input device of second embodiment of the invention omits second digital camera 12 among first embodiment.Make the function of first digital camera 11 with second digital camera 12.But need to dispose first mirror 17, second mirror 18 in first digital camera, 11 camera lens the place aheads.Adjust first mirror 17, second mirror 18 to suitable position, shown in Fig. 3 A, 3B, can make first digital camera 11 absorb the image of first mirror 17,18 reflections of second mirror simultaneously, as shown in Figure 2 keyboard image 21 and with reference to the image of image 30.Present embodiment more can be reduced the number of the structure of data input device.
See also shown in Figure 4.The data input device of third embodiment of the invention, be in conjunction with in the tubular container 40, with microprocessor 10, first digital camera 11, Vibration Sensor 13 or microphone, image generation device 14, first mirror 17, second mirror 18 and lightguide 19 to be convenient for carrying.Tubular container 40 has the hole respectively corresponding to Vibration Sensor 13 or microphone, image generation device 14, first mirror 17, second mirror 18, involves the transmission of light in order to vibrations.
Lightguide 19 can be optical fiber or lens group etc., is sent to first video camera 11 in order to the image with 18 reflections of second mirror.
See also shown in Figure 5.The present invention also can directly place camera lens the place ahead of camera with picture 50, replace to utilize image generation device to project the image that carries out input operation for the user.But picture 50 must be furnished in the ad-hoc location that can absorb image for camera lens.Image on the picture 50 comprises plural input field 51,52,53, and the confession user is used in finger or input pen 22 carries out input operation on picture 50.The Trackpad of input field 51 similar general notebook computers carries out as utilizing as the mouse for the user, the vernier in the display frame of the electronic product display that control and the present invention are electrically connected or carry out the input operation of handwriting input etc.The left-right key of input field 52,53 similar mouses, when the user touched input field 52,53, microprocessor promptly can produce corresponding input signal.
See also shown in Figure 6.The present invention also can utilize the image in the display frame 60 of display of electronic product, and for example a keypad 61 images replace and utilize image generation device to project the image of confession user input operation.The user utilizes finger or input pen 22 to carry out input operation on the desktop in camera lens the place ahead of camera, behind camera picked-up image, can show in display frame 60 that input pen 22 carries out the image of input operation on keyboard 61.
Data input device of the present invention can produce the corresponding input data of input operation with the user correctly, fast, and save manufacturing cost.
The above record, only for utilizing the embodiment of the technology of the present invention content, modification, variation that any personage who is familiar with this technology uses the present invention to do all belong to the claim that the present invention advocates, disclose and be not limited to embodiment.
