Nowadays, when people are traveling or traveling, they will carry their computers with them to facilitate their Internet access or work.

通常的滑鼠都是放置在桌面上使用,因為不論是滾輪滑鼠還是光電滑鼠都依賴著桌面的存在。為了脫離桌面因素,於是就出現了採用雙軸加速度傳感單元的滑鼠,其藉由感應用戶的動作(滑鼠的移動動作)產生兩個控制訊號,以控制游標的移動。但是,雙軸加速度傳感單元的感應方向是固定的,如此,用戶在使用此類滑鼠時,只能是按照這滑鼠固有的擺放方式來使用,不利於滿足不同習慣用戶的使用。 Normally, the mouse is placed on the desktop, because both the mouse and the optical mouse rely on the presence of the desktop. In order to get rid of the desktop factor, a mouse using a dual-axis acceleration sensing unit is generated, which generates two control signals by sensing the movement of the user (the moving motion of the mouse) to control the movement of the cursor. However, the sensing direction of the dual-axis accelerometer unit is fixed. Therefore, when using such a mouse, the user can only use the mouse in the manner of the mouse, which is not suitable for satisfying the use of different habitual users.

圖2為一較佳實施方式的電子設備的控制方法步驟流程圖。 2 is a flow chart showing the steps of a control method of an electronic device according to a preferred embodiment.

請參閱圖1,一較佳實施方式的控制裝置10功能模組圖,其用於控制電子設備20的工作。控制裝置10可以是滑鼠或者是具有滑鼠功能的電子產品,用來控制電腦中滑鼠箭頭的移動。控制裝置10也可以是遊戲手柄,用於遊戲角色執行對應操作,兩者構成一個電子控制系統。 Please refer to FIG. 1 , a functional block diagram of a control device 10 of a preferred embodiment for controlling the operation of the electronic device 20 . The control device 10 can be a mouse or an electronic product with a mouse function for controlling the movement of the mouse arrow in the computer. The control device 10 can also be a gamepad for the game character to perform corresponding operations, both of which form an electronic control system.

控制裝置10包括三軸感應單元102、控制單元104、處理單元106。 The control device 10 includes a three-axis sensing unit 102, a control unit 104, and a processing unit 106.

三軸感應單元102感應用戶動作,產生對應X、Y、Z軸的三個感應訊號。 The three-axis sensing unit 102 senses user motions and generates three sensing signals corresponding to the X, Y, and Z axes.

控制單元104用於比較三個感應訊號對應的位移變化量的大小,確定其中位移變化量較大的兩個感應訊號為有效感應訊號,並產生對應選擇資訊給處理單元106。當需要三個感應訊號中的兩個感應訊號時,就需要要進行一個選擇動作。本實施方式採用的遮罩方式為去掉位移量最小的方向對應的感應訊號。因為,用戶手持控制裝置10移動時,基本上都是在一個平面上移動,那麼就有一個方向的移動量很小,且該方向的移動也是沒有用的。為此,本實施方式就藉由位移量的差異來進行感應訊號的選擇。 The control unit 104 is configured to compare the magnitudes of the displacement changes corresponding to the three inductive signals, determine the two inductive signals whose displacement changes are large, and generate the corresponding selection information to the processing unit 106. When two sensing signals of three sensing signals are needed, a selection action is required. The mask mode adopted in this embodiment is to remove the sensing signal corresponding to the direction in which the displacement amount is the smallest. Because the user's hand-held control device 10 moves substantially in one plane when moving, the amount of movement in one direction is small, and the movement in that direction is useless. For this reason, in the present embodiment, the selection of the sensing signal is performed by the difference in the displacement amount.

處理單元106根據控制單元104提供的選擇資訊,提取三個感應訊號中的兩個感應訊號,再將提取的兩個感應訊號轉化為被控電子設備20的控制訊號,並發送給電子設備20。發送方式可以為有線或無線。電子設備20接收控制訊號執行對應功能,如控制滑鼠箭 頭的移動,控制遊戲角色的移動等。當控制裝置10作為滑鼠控制滑鼠箭頭的移動時,電子設備20即為電腦主機。處理單元106將兩個感應訊號分別轉化為X、Y方向上的兩個控制指令,分別表示滑鼠箭頭在X、Y方向上移動的方向位移。 The processing unit 106 extracts two sensing signals of the three sensing signals according to the selection information provided by the control unit 104, and converts the extracted two sensing signals into control signals of the controlled electronic device 20, and sends the signals to the electronic device 20. The sending method can be wired or wireless. The electronic device 20 receives the control signal to perform a corresponding function, such as controlling the mouse arrow The movement of the head controls the movement of the game character and the like. When the control device 10 acts as a mouse to control the movement of the mouse arrow, the electronic device 20 is the computer host. The processing unit 106 converts the two sensing signals into two control commands in the X and Y directions, respectively, indicating the direction shift of the mouse arrow in the X and Y directions.

藉由上述控制裝置10,用戶可以任意擺放方式的握持控制裝置10並移動,控制裝置10會自動的選擇用戶需要的兩個方向的感應訊號來控制電子設備20,從而滿足不同習慣用戶的需求。在其他實施方式中,控制單元104也可以是一個機械選擇開關,由用戶自己選擇需要的兩個感應訊號。 With the above-mentioned control device 10, the user can move and hold the control device 10 in an arbitrary manner, and the control device 10 automatically selects the sensing signals in two directions required by the user to control the electronic device 20, thereby satisfying different custom users. demand. In other embodiments, the control unit 104 can also be a mechanical selection switch, and the user selects the two required sensing signals.

請參閱圖2,其為一較佳實施方式的電子設備的控制方法步驟流程圖,包括如下步驟: Please refer to FIG. 2 , which is a flow chart of a method for controlling an electronic device according to a preferred embodiment, and includes the following steps:

步驟S21,藉由控制裝置中的三軸感應單元感應用戶動作,產生三個感應訊號。 In step S21, three sensing signals are generated by sensing the user motion by the three-axis sensing unit in the control device.

步驟S23,提取三個感應訊號中對應位移量較大的兩個感應訊號。其中,兩個感應訊號的提取可以是藉由比較三個感應訊號中對應位移量的大小而實現的自動提取,也可以是根據用戶的操作手動選擇性提取。 In step S23, two sensing signals corresponding to the larger displacement amounts of the three sensing signals are extracted. The extraction of the two inductive signals may be an automatic extraction by comparing the magnitudes of the corresponding displacements of the three inductive signals, or may be manually selected according to the user's operation.

步驟S25,將提取的兩個感應訊號轉化為控制訊號。 In step S25, the extracted two sensing signals are converted into control signals.

步驟S27,將控制訊號發送給被控電子設備。 In step S27, the control signal is sent to the controlled electronic device.

步驟S29,被控電子設備根據控制訊號執行對應功能。 In step S29, the controlled electronic device performs a corresponding function according to the control signal.
