Touch device and control method and method for determining unlocking thereof
First Claim
1. A touch device, comprising:
- at least two image capturing units, respectively configured in different corners of a touch plane, wherein at least one light-reflected object is configured around the touch plane; and
a processing unit, coupled to the at least two image capturing units, wherein the at least two image capturing units emit a detecting signal along the touch plane, and the processing unit detects a reflected signal reflected from the detecting signal through the image capturing units,wherein when the touch device is operated in a touch-lock mode, the processing unit detects the reflected signal through the at least two image capturing units, so as to receive a first gesture performed on the touch plane, and determines whether the first gesture matches a first specific gesture, and when the first gesture matches the first specific gesture, the processing unit controls the touch device to operate in a touch-on mode,wherein when the touch device is operated in the touch-on mode, the processing unit provides touch information, and when the touch device is operated in the touch-lock mode, the processing unit does not provide the touch information,wherein the processing unit analyses the reflecting signal to obtain a number of a plurality of blocking points and a plurality of positions of the blocking points on the touch plane, so as to obtain the first gesture, andwherein the processing unit determines whether the first gesture is performed by a single hand by determining whether a first ratio between a distance between any two of the blocking points and a first side length of the touch plane is smaller than a first predetermined ratio, determining whether a second ratio between the distance and a second side length of the touch plane is smaller than a second predetermined ratio, and determining whether the distance complies with a reasonable range performed by the single hand according to the first ratio and the second ratio, so as to determine whether the first gesture matches the first specific gesture.

Abstract
A touch device and a control method and a method for determining unlocking thereof are provided. The touch device includes image capturing units configured nearby a touch surface respectively, and light-reflected objects are configured around the touch surface. In this method, the image capturing units are used to detect a reflected signal to receive a first gesture on the touch surface when the touch device is operated in a touch-lock mode. The image capturing units emit a detecting signal along the touch plane and detect the reflected signal reflected from the detecting signal. It is determined whether the first gesture matches a first specific gesture. When the first gesture matches the first specific gesture, the touch device is operated in a touch-on mode. Touch information is provided when the touch device is operated in the touch-on mode but not provided when the touch device is operated in the touch-lock mode.
