    Technical area
    The present invention relates to a human-machine interaction method that uses combinations of tactile and contactless commands. It also relates to a human-machine interface implementing the method, and an apparatus integrating the interface.
    The field of the invention is more particularly but not limited to that of human-machine interfaces based on tactile and non-contact control interfaces. State of the art
    Portable devices with tactile interfaces are well known. These include computers equipped with a touch screen, smartphones and tablets.
    In general, they comprise a control interface superimposed on a display screen which makes it possible to interact directly (with a control object such as a finger or a stylus) with information or elements displayed.
    The control interfaces use capacitive technologies most of the time.
    The most common techniques include electrodes arranged in the form of rows and columns. The detection of control objects is carried out essentially in two measurement modes.
    In a mutual capacity measurement mode (generally called "mutual" mode), coupling capacitors are measured between line electrodes and coupling electrodes. When a control object is approached near an overlap zone, it disrupts the field lines and modifies the measured mutual capacity. This method is limited to contact measurements because of its low sensitivity. On the other hand, it allows unambiguous detection of several control objects simultaneously.
    In an individual capacitance measurement mode (generally called a "self" mode), the capacitance between each electrode and one or more control objects in proximity is measured. This method makes it possible to detect objects away from the electrodes, without contact, therefore. However, because of the structure in lines and columns of the electrodes, the presence of several objects simultaneously generates "ghosts" which lead to false detections. The method is essentially limited to detecting only one object at a time.
    Control interfaces are known which exploit the two techniques and which therefore allow: detection of a single remote control object in "self" mode; - By switching in "mutual" mode, the detection of several objects in contact with the interface simultaneously.
    Thus, human-machine interaction methods which are currently known and which rely on this type of techniques offer only very limited possibilities for remote interaction.
    In addition, touchless and touch interaction modes are managed separately and sequentially, which limits the possibilities for ordering.
    In the case of small "smartphones" type terminals, the possibilities of human-machine interactions are strongly constrained by ergonomic aspects. Indeed, if the terminal is held in the hand, with known man-machine interfaces there are two problems: - the fingers of the hand holding the device are not usable for commands, and even overflow on the slab touch and trigger unwanted commands, - so there is only one hand left to perform commands, with the limitations mentioned above.
    Furthermore, capacitive measuring techniques are known which make it possible to obtain sufficiently high sensitivities to detect control objects in a neighborhood of small individual electrodes, remotely and without contact with the surface of the control interface. .
    For example, patent FR 2 756 048 discloses a capacitive measurement solution for detecting the position of a finger in contact and in space up to several centimeters away from measurement electrodes.
    The present invention aims to provide a human-machine interaction method that allows the realization of commands implementing combinations of touch and contactless commands.
    Another object of the present invention is to propose a method of human-machine interaction that is well adapted to the ergonomic constraints of using smartphone-type devices.
    Another object of the present invention is to propose a method of human-machine interaction that makes it possible to use both hands to control portable devices of the smartphone type.

    It is understood that the embodiments or implementation which will be described in the following are in no way limiting. It will be possible, in particular, to imagine variants of the invention comprising only a selection of characteristics described subsequently isolated from the other characteristics described, if this selection of characteristics is sufficient to confer a technical advantage or to differentiate the invention with respect to the state of the art. This selection comprises at least one feature preferably functional without structural details, or with only a part of the structural details if this part alone is sufficient to confer a technical advantage or to differentiate the invention from the state of the prior art.
    In particular, all the variants and all the embodiments described are combinable with each other if nothing stands in the way of this combination at the technical level.
    In the figures, the elements common to several figures retain the same reference.
    With reference to FIG. 1 and in FIG. 2, there will be described an electronic device 12 according to the invention, designed to be held in hand.
    In the embodiment presented, this device is of the mobile phone or smartphone type. It is understood, however, that its functions are in no way limiting. The described embodiments could equally well be implemented on a tablet computer or on any electronic device of similar shape. The apparatus 12 includes a display screen 13.
    It also comprises a control interface with, in particular, transparent capacitive measuring electrodes 14 disposed on the display screen 13.
    These capacitive measuring electrodes 14 are arranged so as to be able to detect control objects 10, such as for example fingers, near or in contact with the surface.
    They are made of a substantially transparent conductive material, such as, for example, ITO (indium-tin oxide) deposited on a dielectric material (glass or polymer). They are superimposed on a display screen 13, for example of the TFT (thin film transistor) or OLED (organic light emitting diodes) type. The display screen 13 and the control interface with the measurement electrodes 14 constitute a human-machine interface that makes it possible to interact with the apparatus 12.
    The area covered by the measuring electrodes 14 defines a control object detection area 10 called a screen detection area 15.
    According to an advantageous aspect of the invention, the control interface of the apparatus 12 also comprises external detection zones or at the edge of the display screen 13 which are arranged in such a way as to allow more varied interactions with the user.
    These external detection zones are positioned so as to be accessible to control objects corresponding to fingers of the hand or hands holding the apparatus 12.
    In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and FIG. 2, the apparatus comprises at least one peripheral detection zone 16 located at the edge of the screen 13, on the same face as this one. This peripheral detection zone 16 is placed so as to be accessible in particular to the thumb of the hand 11 holding the device.
    In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and FIG. 2, the apparatus also comprises at least one lateral detection zone 20 located on the side or the edge of the apparatus 12. This lateral detection zone 20 is placed so as to be accessible in particular to the thumb of the hand 11 which hold the device.
    According to embodiments, the peripheral detection zone 16 and / or the lateral detection zone 20 may comprise capacitive measurement electrodes distinct from those of the display screen 13.
    According to other preferred embodiments, capacitive measurement electrodes of the periphery of the screen 13 are used to detect control objects 10 in peripheral detection areas 16 and / or in lateral detection zones 20 (or in a detection zone encompassing peripheral detection zones 16 and lateral detection zones 20 as shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2).
    Indeed, these edge capacitive electrodes are sensitive to the presence of control objects 10 beyond the limits of the screen 13. Comparing their measurements with those obtained with electrodes located further towards the inside of the screen 13, it is possible to determine that a detected control object is in a peripheral or lateral detection zone 16, and not above the screen 13. This detection mode may be called an effect detection. on board.
    In this case, the device according to the invention may not comprise capacitive measuring electrodes in the peripheral and / or lateral detection zones 16.
    It should be noted that the peripheral detection zone 16 and the lateral detection zone 20 as shown in the figures are also accessible to other fingers such as the index finger when the apparatus is held in the left hand. Other configurations, not shown, are of course possible within the scope of the invention. Thus, according to variants of embodiments, the apparatus according to the invention may comprise: at least one lateral detection zone and / or at least one peripheral detection zone 16; at least two lateral detection zones and / or at least two peripheral detection zones 16 arranged symmetrically with respect to the display screen 13; at least one lateral detection zone and / or at least one peripheral detection zone 16 located on or opposite the sides of the device in contact with the index fingers when the apparatus is held with both hands, for example with the display screen oriented in "landscape" mode.
    With reference to FIG. 3, we will now describe an embodiment of a detection electronics that makes it possible to produce a control interface.
    In this embodiment, the capacitive electrodes 39 (which correspond to the measurement electrodes 14 of the screen 13 and / or the measuring electrodes of the external detection zones) make it possible to detect the presence and / or to measure the distance of at least one control object 10 in their vicinity.
    In particular, the capacitive electrodes 39 corresponding to the measurement electrodes 14 of the screen 13 and their associated electronics are arranged in such a way as to enable the simultaneous detection of several control objects 10 in different configurations, including in particular: control objects 10 in contact with the surface of the screen 13, - objects remote control of the surface of the screen 13, - some control objects in contact with the surface of the screen 13 and others at a distance.
    The position of the control object (s) relative to the apparatus 12 (and / or their location in a detection zone) is determined from the position of the measurement electrodes 39 which detect these control objects 10.
    The distance, or at least information representative of this distance, between the control objects and the electrodes 39 is determined from measurements of the capacitive coupling between these electrodes 39 and the control objects 10.
    This embodiment makes it possible to obtain sufficient measurement sensitivity to be able to detect and locate control objects in contact with the surface of the apparatus 12 or electrodes 14 in particular, or which evolve in the vicinity of the apparatus 12 at a distance of non-zero distance from its surface.
    Guard elements in the form of guard electrodes or guard planes (not shown) are positioned along the rear face of the measurement electrodes 39 relative to the detection areas of the control objects. These guard elements have the function of avoiding parasitic electrical couplings between the measurement electrodes 39 and their environment, as will be explained later.
    In the case of the display screen 13, the guard elements are also made of a substantially transparent conductive material, such as for example ITO (indium-tin oxide). They are separated from the measurement electrodes 16 by a layer of dielectric material.
    The measurement electrodes 39 are connected to capacitive measurement electronic means 37.
    These capacitive measurement electronic means 37 are made in the form of a floating bridge capacitive measurement system as described for example in FR 2 756 048 of Rozière.
    The detection circuit comprises a so-called floating portion 36 whose reference potential 31, called guarding potential 31, oscillates relative to the mass 33 of the overall system, or to the earth. The potential difference between the guard potential 31 and the ground 33 is generated by an excitation source, or an oscillator 34.
    The guard elements are connected to the guard potential 31.
    The floating portion 36 comprises the sensitive portion of the capacitive sensing shown in FIG. 3 by a charge amplifier. It can of course include other processing and signal conditioning means, including digital or microprocessor-based, also referenced to the guard potential 31. These processing and conditioning means make it possible for example to calculate distance information. and pressure from capacitive measurements. The power supply of the floating portion 36 is provided by floating power transfer means, comprising for example DC / DC converters.
    This capacitive measurement system makes it possible to measure capacitance information between at least one measuring electrode 39 and a control object 10. The control object 10 must be connected to a potential different from the guard potential 31, such as for example the mass potential 33. One finds oneself in this configuration when the control object 10 is a finger of a user whose body defines a mass, or an object (such as a stylus) handled by this user.
    A set of analog switches or switches, controlled by electronic control means, makes it possible to select a measurement electrode 39 and connect it to the capacitive detection electronics 37 in order to measure the coupling capacity with the control object. 10. The switches are configured so that a measuring electrode 39 is connected to either the capacitive sensing electronics 37 or the guarding potential 31.
    The sensitive part of the detection is protected by a guard shield 32 connected to the guard potential 31.
    Thus, a measurement electrode 39 connected by a switch 30 to the capacitive detection electronics 37 (or active measurement electrode 39) is surrounded by guard planes consisting at least partly of inactive measurement electrodes 39 and guard elements related to the guard potential 31.
    Since the active measuring electrode 39 is also at the guarding potential 31, the parasitic capacitances between this electrode and its environment are avoided, so that only the coupling with the object of interest is measured with maximum sensitivity. The floating electronics 36 is connected to the electronics of the apparatus 38 referenced to ground by electrical connections compatible with the difference of reference potentials. These links may comprise, for example, differential amplifiers or optocouplers.
    The switches 30 thus make it possible to sequentially scan or interrogate the measurement electrodes 14 of the screen 13, as well as the measurement electrodes of the external detection zones.
    Of course, several channels capacitive detection electronics 37 can be implemented in parallel, each controlling a subset of electrodes 39. It is possible for example to implement a capacitive sensing electronics channel 37 to control electrodes 14 of the screen 13 and a channel capacitive sensing electronics 37 for controlling the electrodes of the external detection zones.
    Examples of modes of implementation of the control method according to the invention will now be described for interacting with an apparatus such as that described with reference to FIGS. 1, Fig. 2 and FIG. 3.
    Of course, these modes of implementation are non-limiting examples.
    In addition, the control method according to the invention can be implemented on an apparatus in addition to or in parallel with other methods of controlling or generating known commands. The apparatus 12 as described in connection with FIGS. 1, Fig. 2 and FIG. 3 is an example of an apparatus particularly adapted to the implementation of the control method according to the invention. However, the control method according to the invention can of course be implemented in any other suitable apparatus without departing from the scope of the invention.
    In the control methods of tactile and contactless control interfaces of the prior art, there are usually two types of commands: - so-called contact commands, which are executed when a control object 10 touches the surface of the touch control interface. It may be for example commands for selecting an item displayed on the screen 13 (selecting a piece of music, selecting an email to view the content, etc.) or validation; - So-called flyover commands, which are executed when a control object 10 is detected near the surface of the control interface. It can be for example commands to move displayed items or to open a pop-up window for viewing the content.
    For convenience, a control object 10 is designated which touches the surface of the touch control interface a contact object, and a control object 10 is designated which is detected near the surface of the control interface an object overflight.
    With reference to FIG. 4, according to the control method of the invention, there is introduced another type of control, called combined control 43, which is triggered when at least one contact object is present in at least one predefined contact zone and at least one a rollover object is present in at least one predefined rollover area.
    In general, therefore, the method according to the invention comprises the following steps: searching for overflight objects, searching for contact objects, executing a combined command if at least one object contact is present in at least one predefined contact zone, or possibly, execution of an overflight control 42 in the opposite case.
    The steps of searching for overhead objects and searching for contact objects can of course be performed in any order.
    The predefined contact areas and the predefined overflight zones are selected from the screen detection areas 15 and the external detection areas of the control interface as defined in relation to FIGS. 1 and FIG. 2.
    With reference to FIG. 5, in certain embodiments of the control method according to the invention, the predefined contact and flight zones are included in the screen detection zone 15.
    In this case, the method according to the invention can be implemented in an apparatus 12 whose control interface is limited to a touch screen 13, insofar as the capacitive sensors used are capable of simultaneously detecting at least an object of contact and at least one overflight object.
    According to an exemplary mode of implementation, the method according to the invention comprises the execution of a combined command 43 performing a spatial (or geometric) transformation around a reference point 51 on an element 50 (such as a preselected image) represented on the display screen 13: a first control object 10 (a finger or a stylet), or object of contact, is placed on the surface of the touch-sensitive panel 13. Its position defines a point of reference 51; a second control object (another finger), or overflight object, is moved above the surface of the touch-sensitive panel 13, along a two-dimensional or three-dimensional trajectory 52; the element 50 is then displaced or deformed as a function of the chosen spatial transformation, which may comprise, for example, a homothety, a rotation and a deformation. Reference point 51 serves as the origin for the transformation. It therefore corresponds to a center of rotation as illustrated in FIG. 4 for a rotation, or at a fixed zone for a homothety or deformation.
    A displacement of the contact object on the surface of the touch-sensitive panel may furthermore make it possible, as desired, to move the element 50 on the display 13 or to move the reference point 51 relative to the element 50.
    With reference to FIG. 5, in some embodiments of the control method according to the invention, the predetermined contact and flight zones correspond to detection zones that are distinct from the control interface.
    In particular, in certain implementation modes: the predefined overflight area is included in the screen detection zone; the contact zone corresponds to at least one external detection zone, such as a lateral detection zone and / or a peripheral detection zone. It is then called, respectively, lateral contact zone or peripheral contact zone. 16.
    For example, it is possible to use as a contact zone a lateral detection zone 20 arranged on the edge of the device 12 so as to be easily accessible with a finger (a control object 10) of a hand holding the device 12.
    According to exemplary embodiments, the method according to the invention may comprise the execution of a combined command 43 in response to the detection of a contact object 10 in a peripheral or lateral contact zone 16.
    It is then possible to carry out actions with fingers of the hand holding the device 12 which make it possible to modify overflight commands 42 made by moving an overflight object over the screen 13, or to introduce therein additional controls.
    The possibilities of interactions with the device are thus considerably increased.
    For example: - a "tap" or a long press 60 of an object of contact 10 in a peripheral contact area 16 or side 20 can be used as a command for validation or selection in the context of the execution of a overflight control 42, - a "tap" or a prolonged press 60 of an object of contact 10 in a peripheral or lateral contact area 16 may be used to temporarily block an overflight control 42, so that it can move or removing the overhead object without introducing an additional overflight command 42. In particular, the display 13 can be temporarily rendered insensitive to the movements 52 or to the presence of an overflight object; a "tap", a prolonged support 60 or a displacement 61 of a contact object 10 in a peripheral or lateral contact area 20 may be used to modify the manner in which an overflight control 42 which moves or spatial transformation of an element 50 (such as an image or graphic object) on the display 13 interprets or takes into account trajectory or position information 52 of a rollover object. In particular, it is possible to modify at least one of the following parameters: sensitivity, direction of movement, passage from a zoom mode (modification of the size of the element 50) to a displacement mode (of the element 50 on the screen 13); a "tap" or a prolonged press 60 of a contact object 10 in a peripheral or lateral contact zone 16 may be used to transform an overflight command 42 corresponding to a scrolling of elements 40 on the screen display 13 as a function of the trajectory or the position 52 of an overflight object in a command corresponding to a scrolling of sub-elements contained in one of the elements 50 (always according to the trajectory or the position 52 of the overflight object).
    Of course, the invention is not limited to the examples that have just been described and many adjustments can be made to these examples without departing from the scope of the invention.
