Input management in a mobile terminal device
View Patent ↗A mobile terminal device includes an input unit, an input detection unit for detecting input information at a predetermined interval from starting to the end of the input reception, and an application control unit which allows the application to execute the process preliminarily allocated corresponding to the input information upon reception of the input information detected by the input detection unit. The application control unit allows the application to execute the preliminarily allocated process corresponding to the input information indicating the end of the input reception when the input information before elapse of the predetermined time is not received, and generates the signal indicating the end of the input reception for transmission to the input detection unit to finish input information detection.
1. A mobile terminal device comprising:
an input unit configured to receive an input through a key;
an input detection unit activated at a time when the input unit receives the input through the key to detect an input information data including at least an input state indicating the input received by the input unit until end of the input reception by the input unit;
an application control unit configured to receive the input information data detected by the input detection unit to allow an application program to perform a process preliminarily allocated corresponding to the input information; and
a timer that counts a predetermined set time, wherein
the application control unit allows the timer to count a predetermined time upon reception of the input information data, and allows the application program to execute the preliminarily allocated process corresponding to the input information data indicating the end of the input reception by the input unit when the input unit does not receive the input information data indicating the end of the input reception by the input unit until an elapse of the predetermined time, and finishes detection of the input information data by generating a signal indicating the end of the input reception by the input unit to be transmitted to the input detection unit.
2. The mobile terminal device according to claim 1 , further comprising a predetermined time set table having the predetermined time set in accordance with a kind of the application program, wherein the application control unit sets the timer to the predetermined time corresponding to the application program allowed to execute the preliminarily allocated process corresponding to the input information data by referring to the predetermined time set table.
3. The mobile terminal device according to claim 1 , further comprising a predetermined time set table having the predetermined time set in accordance with a kind of a key of the input unit, wherein the input detection unit detects the input information data which contain the kind of the key through which the input unit receives the input, and the application control unit sets the timer to the predetermined time corresponding to the key through which the input unit receives the input by referring to the predetermined time set table.
4. The mobile terminal device according to claim 1 , further comprising a predetermined time set table having a predetermined time set in accordance with a display state of the application program, wherein the application program allows the timer to count the predetermined time corresponding to the display state of the application program upon execution of the preliminarily allocated process corresponding to the input information data in response to a command of the application control unit by referring to the predetermined time set table.
5. A mobile terminal device comprising:
an input unit configured to receive an input;
an input detection unit activated at a time when the input unit receives the input to detect an input information data including at least an input state indicating the input received by the input unit;
an application control unit configured to receive the input information data detected by the input detection unit to allow an application program to perform a process preliminarily allocated corresponding to the input information; and
a timer, wherein
the application control unit allows the application program to execute the preliminarily allocated process corresponding to the input information data indicating the end of the input reception by the input unit when the input by the input unit is inputted continuously by a predetermined time set by the timer.
6. The mobile terminal device according to claim 5 , further comprising a predetermined time set table having the predetermined time set in accordance with a kind of the application program, wherein the application control unit sets the timer to the predetermined time corresponding to the application program allowed to execute the preliminarily allocated process corresponding to the input information data by referring to the predetermined time set table.
7. The mobile terminal device according to claim 5 , further comprising a predetermined time set table having the predetermined time set in accordance with a kind of a key of the input unit, wherein the input detection unit detects the input information data which contain the kind of the key through which the input unit receives the input, and the application control unit sets the timer to the predetermined time corresponding to the key through which the input unit receives the input by referring to the predetermined time set table.
8. The mobile terminal device according to claim 5 , further comprising a predetermined time set table having a predetermined time set in accordance with a display state of the application program, wherein the application program allows the timer to count the predetermined time corresponding to the display state of the application program upon execution of the preliminarily allocated process corresponding to the input information data in response to a command of the application control unit by referring to the predetermined time set table.
