Unlocking method of a touch screen and electronic device with camera function thereof
An unlocking method of a touch screen and an electric device with camera function thereof are disclosed. A camera module is used for capturing a plurality of images. A touch screen shows an application function icon, a shooting mode icon, an activate area and a slide path connecting the icons and the activate area while the touch screen is locked. A processing module is electrically connected with the camera module and the touch screen. While detecting that the application function icon or the shooting mode icon is dragged to the activate area through the slide path, the processing module transmits an unlocking signal to the touch screen. The touch screen unlocks according to the unlocking signal and shows a screen of application function operation or a screen of camera function. Therefore, users would feel more convenient than before while using an electric device with camera function.
1. An electronic device with camera function, comprising:
a camera module capturing an image;
a touch screen displaying at least one application function icon in a first sensing zone, a shooting mode icon in a second sensing zone, an activate area between the first sensing zone and the second sensing zone and a slide path connecting the at least one application function icon in the first sensing zone and the shooting mode icon in the second sensing zone with the activate area during a locking mode; and
a processing module being electrically connected to the camera module and the touch screen; the processing module issuing an unlocking signal to the touch screen only when the at least one application function icon in the first sensing zone or the shooting mode icon in the second sensing zone is dragged to the activate area between the first sensing zone and the second sensing zone through the slide path; the touch screen entering an unlocking mode and displaying a screen of application function operation or a screen of camera function according to the unlocking signal accordingly;
wherein only when the at least one application function icon in the first sensing zone or the shooting mode icon in the second sensing zone is touched during the locking mode, the processing module issues a corresponding display signal to the touch screen; the touch screen correspondingly displays the other one of the at least one application function icon or the shooting mode icon in the activate area between the first sensing zone and the second sensing zone according to the corresponding display signal.
2. The electronic device with camera function as recited in claim 1 , wherein while detecting that the at least one application function icon or the shooting mode icon is touched during the locking mode, the processing module issues a direction display signal to the touch screen; the touch screen displays a direction icon in the slide path according to the direction display signal.
3. The electronic device with camera function as recited in claim 1 , further comprising a motion detection unit for detecting a rotate angle of the touch screen; the processing module rotating the at least one application function icon and the shooting mode icon according to a detecting result of the motion detection unit.
4. The electronic device with camera function as recited in claim 1 , wherein while detecting that the shooting mode icon is dragged to the activate area through the slide path, the processing module further issuing an activate signal to the camera module to activate the camera module.
5. An unlocking method of a touch screen, comprising the following steps:
using a touch screen for displaying at least one application function icon in a first sensing zone, a shooting mode icon in a second sensing zone, an activate area between the first sensing zone and the second sensing zone and a slide path connecting the at least one application function icon in the first sensing zone and the shooting mode icon in the second sensing zone with the activate area during a locking mode;
issuing an unlocking signal to the touch screen by a processing module only when the at least one application function icon in the first sensing zone or the shooting mode icon in the second sensing zone is dragged to the activate area between the first sensing zone and the second sensing zone through the slide path; and
enabling the touch screen for entering an unlocking mode and displaying a screen of application function operation or a screen of camera function according to the unlocking signal;
wherein while the touch screen is in the locking mode, the method further comprises the following steps:
issuing a corresponding display signal from the processing module to the touch screen only when the at least one application function icon in the first sensing zone or the shooting mode icon in the second sensing zone is touched; and
using the touch screen for correspondingly displaying the other one of the at least one application function icon or the shooting mode icon in the activate area between the first sensing zone and the second sensing zone according to the corresponding display signal.
6. The unlocking method of the touch screen as claimed in claim 5 , wherein while the touch screen is in the locking mode, the method further comprises the following steps:
issuing a direction display signal from the processing module to the touch screen while the processing module detects that the at least one application function icon or the shooting mode icon is touched; and
using the touch screen for displaying a direction icon in the slide path according to the direction display signal.
7. The unlocking method of the touch screen as claimed in claim 5 , further comprising the following step:
using a motion detection unit for detecting a rotate angle of the touch screen; and
rotating the at least one application function icon and the shooting mode icon through the processing module according to a detecting result of the motion detection unit.
8. The unlocking method of the touch screen as claimed in claim 5 , wherein while the processing module detects that the shooting mode icon is dragged to the activate area through the slide path, the method further comprises the following step:
issuing an activate signal to the camera module by the processing module to activate the camera module.
