1. A method for preventing inadvertently touch of an electronic device, the electronic device having a physical button switch, and the method comprising:
- determining whether the physical button switch is triggered by an operation motion being received;
determining whether a first human body is closing to the physical button switch;
if the first human body is closing to the physical button switch and the physical button switch is triggered, sending a physical button switch signal corresponding to the physical button switch to the electronic device to perform a function corresponding to the physical button switch; and
if the first human body is not closing to the physical button switch when the physical button switch is triggered, not sending, by a sensing module, the physical button switch signal corresponding to the physical button switch to the electronic device,wherein the electronic device comprises the sensing module, and the step of determining whether the first human body is closing to the physical button switch comprises;
sensing whether the first human body is entering a first range by the sensing module, and generating a first sensing value in response to that the first human body entering the first range is sensed, wherein the first range is a spatial range which covers a physical surface of the physical button switch, wherein the first sensing value is indicative of the closeness of the first human body to the physical button switch; and
determining that the first human body is closing to the physical button switch if the first sensing value is greater than a first threshold value.

8. A device for preventing inadvertently touch of the electronic device, comprising:
-
a physical button switch configured to receive an operating motion and to be triggered by the operating motion; and a sensing module coupled to the physical button switch, and configured to determine whether a first human body is closing to the physical button switch, wherein if the first human body is closing to the physical button switch and the physical button switch is triggered by the operating motion, the sensing module sends a physical button switch signal corresponding to the physical button switch to the electronic device to perform a function corresponding to the physical button switch, wherein if the first human body is not closing to the physical button switch when the physical button switch is triggered, the sensing module does not send the physical button switch signal corresponding to the physical button switch to the electronic device, wherein the sensing module senses whether the first human body is entering a first range, and generates a first sensing value in response to that the first human body entering the first range is sensed, wherein the first range is a spatial range which covers a physical surface of the physical button switch, wherein the first sensing value is indicative of the closeness of the first human body to the physical button switch, wherein if the first sensing value is greater than a first threshold value, the sensing module determines that the first human body is closing to the physical button switch. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
