Abstract

A flexible strain sensor based automatic time synchronization method of a watch. The method comprises: step 1, adjusting a hand to a pre-set position; step 2, acquiring a current time; and step 3, sending the current time to the watch, and adjusting the hand to the current accurate time. Step 1 comprises the following steps: the watch comprises a surface, and the surface is provided with an opening; a flexible strain sensor is provided at a position, directly facing the opening of the surface, of a machine core of the watch; the length of the flexible strain sensor extending out of the opening is greater than the height of any hand to the surface; the flexible strain sensor is connected to a processor of the watch, the processor stores a strain threshold of the flexible strain sensor and the processor drives the hand to rotate; when a strain value of the flexible strain sensor reaches the strain threshold, the processor controls a drive motor of the hand contacting the flexible strain sensor to drive the hand to rotate by a rotation threshold and stop at the pre-set position.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a watch adjusting method, in particular to a watch automatic time setting method based on a flexible strain sensor. Background technique [0002] When adjusting the pointer of the current watch, it is generally adjusted manually. It is necessary to observe the surface with the naked eye, and then rotate the pointer to a desired position. In order to liberate users, there are gradually watches that can be automatically adjusted. The adjustment method is based on first judging the position of the physical pointer of the watch. At present, the mainstream is to use a camera to take pictures of the surface of the watch and judge the position of the pointer through image recognition. Then in order to adjust the time, turn the pointer to the corresponding time position. [0003] First, this method relies on camera equipment other than watches, such as mobile phones. Second, image recognition requires a special module, which increases...
