In addition, the present invention provides various types of sensors provided in the motion sensing unit of the wristwatch-type device, thereby generating motion information using vibrations, currents, and muscles in addition to the movement of the palm or fingers, There is another purpose for using as input.
Another object of the present invention is to enable the wristwatch device worn by the user to be used regardless of whether the wristwatch device worn by the user is worn by the user by changing the arrangement of the sensor detection positions for inputting characters or functions .
The object of the present invention can be achieved by a wristwatch-type device comprising: a motion sensing unit for sensing motion of at least one of a finger or a palm of a wearer and generating motion information; And a display unit for transmitting the command to an external device and receiving data from the external device and a display unit for outputting a control operation of the control unit, And the motion information is transmitted to the main body when the motion sensing part is provided in the locking buckle. The wristwatch device according to claim 1,
Therefore, the wristwatch-type device using the motion input of the present invention is equipped with a motion detection unit for detecting the palm or the finger of the user on the mobile device, which is a wristwatch-type device, to detect movement of the user's palm or finger, There is an effect that it is not necessary to provide a separate input device by performing the operation.
In addition, the present invention can operate the wristwatch-type device by providing the motion sensing unit in the main body or by separately providing a buckle or the like in accordance with the wearing style of the user even if the wristwatch-type device is worn on the inside or outside of the wrist There are other effects.
In addition, the present invention provides various types of sensors provided in the motion sensing unit of the wristwatch-type device, thereby generating motion information using vibrations, currents, and muscles in addition to the movement of the palm or fingers, There is another effect you can use as input.
Further, according to the present invention, there is another effect that the wristwatch device worn by the user can be used regardless of whether the wristwatch device worn by the user is worn on the user's right or left hand by changing the sensor detection position arrangement for inputting characters or functions.
