Touch interaction methods and systems using a human body as a signal transmission medium
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- sending, by a wearable system attached to a user comprising a processor, a first wave signal that transmits through a part of a body of the user as a medium to an object in touch with the user;
receiving, by the wearable system, a second wave signal comprising;
a first received wave signal transmitting through the same part of the body, the first received wave signal being a reflected wave formed by the first wave on a touched surface of the object after the first wave signal is reflected by the object, ora second received wave signal transmitting through a different part of the body, the second received wave signal being a transmitted wave formed after the first wave penetrates through the object;
obtaining a parameter of the contact between the body of the user and the object according to a signal characteristic of the second wave signal, the parameter comprising at least one of;
a contact time or a contact area; and
executing a corresponding operation according to the parameter, the operation comprising at least one of switching a mode, inputting content, or matching a device.

Abstract
Interaction methods and systems are provided relating to the field of information interaction. A method comprises: sending a first wave signal; in response to contact between a user body and an object, receiving a second wave signal that corresponds to the first wave signal after the first wave signal is transmitted by using a medium comprising at least a part of the user body; and obtaining a parameter of the contact between the user body and the object according to a signal characteristic of the received second wave signal. The interaction method and system can help a user to naturally and efficiently complete an information interaction process, simplify an interaction process, and improve the interaction efficiency.
