Electronic device and method for monitoring reading state of user

Abstract

The invention provides an electronic device which comprises a face identifying module and a judging module, wherein the face identifying module is used for identifying a face range in a present image of a user acquired by a camera device when a reading function of the electronic device is started, calculating a ratio of a minimum wrapped rectangle of the face range to the present image and using the ratio as a present ratio; the judging module is used for judging if the calculated present ratio is more than a standard ratio stored in a storage of the electronic device; and when the resent ratio is more than the standard ratio, the judging module can trigger the electronic device to send an alarming signal, thereby reminding the user to keep a proper reading distance. The invention also provides a method for monitoring the reading state of the user. By using the device and method provided by the invention, the problem of blurred vision caused by a too short reading distance can be efficiently avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electronic device and a method for monitoring a user's reading state. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of electronic technology and computer technology, more and more people begin to use electronic devices to download reading materials such as books, magazines and newspapers for reading, such as mobile phones, PDAs, netbooks and e-books. When the user uses the electronic device to read, if the reading distance is too close to the electronic device, the user's eyesight will be reduced. In addition, when the user is reading, he often falls asleep during the reading process. When the user falls asleep, the electronic device is still turned on, thereby causing a waste of power. Contents of the invention [0003] In view of the above, it is necessary to provide an electronic device, which can remind the user to keep an appropriate reading distance when the user's reading distance is too close to th...
