Abstract

The invention provides electronic equipment as well as a wearable pointing device and a method applied to the same. The wearable pointing device comprises a near signal generating unit for generating a near operation signal, a remote signal generating unit for generating a remote operation signal, a control unit for generating a control instrument according to the received near operation signal and remote operation signal and sending the control instrument, a locating unit for sending a locating signal to the electronic equipment when receiving a location instrument, and a communication unit for communicating with the electronic equipment and sending the received control instrument to the electronic equipment. By applying a technology provided by the preferable embodiment of the invention, the invention provides a more intuitionistic operation way for users within any range of the distance between the users and the electronic equipment in such a way that a signal generating unit bound on a hand generates an operation signal for controlling the electronic equipment, thereby providing better mutual feeling for the users and improving the working efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to human-computer interaction technology, in particular to an electronic device and a wearable pointing device and method applied to the electronic device. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of technologies related to computers and other electronic devices, the satisfaction of users' personal experience when using electronic devices is becoming more and more important to the sales performance of manufacturers. Taking computers as an example, the existing mainstream pointing devices for interactive operations with computers are mice, trackballs, etc.; although these pointing devices complete the interactive tasks well, when using computers, users need to constantly switch between keyboards and keyboards. And pointing device, and when the user sits on the sofa to watch a movie, it is even more inconvenient to use the traditional pointing device that must be placed on the desktop. [0003] In the prior art that...
