FIG. 1 provides a flow chart of a method for controlling an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, the electronic device of the present disclosure includes a head-mounted device, for example, virtual reality (VR) glasses and the like. The control method for an electronic device of the present disclosure may include step S101, acquiring a user's head posture or gaze posture. In some embodiments, there are various sensors in the head-mounted device, and these sensors can be used to acquire the user's head posture or gaze posture. In some embodiments, for example, the position of the user's gaze in the field of view may be determined by acquiring an image of the user's eyes, and then using a trained neural network model. It should be understood that the present disclosure may adopt various existing technologies to obtain the user's head posture or gaze posture, and will not be described in detail in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

In some embodiments, the method of the present disclosure may further include step S102, when the head posture or gaze posture satisfies a preset condition, moving the adjustment panel in the field of view of the electronic device to the center of the field of view by a preset distance. In some embodiments, when the head posture or gaze posture satisfies the preset condition, it indicates that the user intends to operate the adjustment panel. At this time, moving the adjustment panel in the field of view of the electronic device to the center of the field of view by a preset distance can be It is convenient for the user to operate the adjustment panel, and also enables the adjustment panel to be in a favorable operable position in the field of view without affecting the display of the content in the main interface.

As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the field of view 20, the main interface 21 and the adjustment panel 22 of the electronic device are shown. When the head posture or gaze posture meets the preset conditions, the adjustment panel in the field of view of the electronic device 22 Moves the preset distance toward the center of the field of view. In some embodiments, the preset distance is 1/3 to 2/3, such as 1/2, of the distance between the edge of the adjustment panel 22 close to the main interface 21 and the edge of the main interface 21 close to the adjustment panel 22 . At this time, moving the adjustment panel 22 to the center of the field of view 20 can facilitate the user's operation on the adjustment panel 22 .

In some embodiments, the method of the present disclosure may further include step S103, changing the control in the adjustment panel from the first state to the second state when the head posture or the gaze posture is maintained for a first preset time. In some embodiments, in order to avoid misoperation, when the head posture or the gaze posture is maintained for the first preset time, the control in the adjustment panel is changed from the first state to the second state, so as to avoid other reasons. False triggers, for example, might just be a fatigued head shake or a casual glance.

The embodiments of the present disclosure predict the user's operation intention on the adjustment panel by detecting the head posture or gaze posture of the electronic device, and directly present the corresponding operation to the user, reducing the user's operation steps and improving operation efficiency.

In some embodiments, the head posture or the gaze posture satisfying the preset condition includes: the head rotation is greater than or equal to a preset angle, or the eyes glance at the adjustment panel for a second preset time.

As shown in FIG. 2 , generally, when the adjustment panel is not intended to be operated, the adjustment panel is located at the edge of the field of view of the electronic device, so as to reduce interference to watching content displayed on the main interface.

In some embodiments, the first preset time is 300ms to 500ms. In some embodiments, if the first preset time is too short, misoperation may easily occur, and if the first preset time is too long, the effect of improving operation efficiency will be weakened. In some embodiments, for example, the head is held for 350 ms after the corresponding angle satisfying the preset condition or the gaze is fixed on the adjustment panel for 350 ms.

In some embodiments, the first state includes a semi-hidden stowed state. When the adjustment panel is not operated, the adjustment panel is in the half-hidden stowed state, for example, only corresponding signs are displayed, such as brightness signs or sound signs, In order to reduce the interference to watching the content displayed on the main interface. In some embodiments, the second state includes an expanded state. As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, the controls in the adjustment panel are changed from the first state to the second state. At this time, the controls on the adjustment panel are also changed from a semi-hidden closed state to a fully expanded state, which is convenient for users. Further operations to improve the efficiency and convenience of user operations.
