The first event, the second event, and the third event may be different from each other, or may be partially or completely the same, and this embodiment is not limited.

According to the control method of the electronic equipment with the folding screen, provided by the embodiment of the application, by utilizing the characteristic that the folding screen is foldable, a user can trigger the electronic equipment to execute the corresponding event by executing the folding operation on the folding screen, so that the man-machine interaction efficiency is improved, and the use experience of the user is improved. And, through confirming that the user makes the folding screen folded through rotating which (or which) screen, make electronic equipment can carry out different responses according to the difference that the user rotated the screen, further improve human-computer interaction efficiency.

With reference to the first aspect, in a possible implementation manner, the determining, by the electronic device, that a user performs a folding operation on a folding screen of the electronic device may specifically include: the electronic equipment determines that an included angle between the first screen and the second screen becomes smaller; or the electronic equipment determines that the included angle between the direction vector of the orientation of the first screen and the direction vector of the orientation of the second screen becomes larger. In this way, the electronic device can distinguish whether the user performs the folding operation on the folding screen by detecting the included angle between the first screen and the second screen or the included angle between the direction vector of the orientation of the first screen and the direction vector of the orientation of the second screen.

With reference to the first aspect or the foregoing possible implementation manners, in another possible implementation manner, the method may further include: the electronic equipment detects the change of the angle of the first screen within a preset time and the change of the angle of the second screen within the preset time from the moment when the user is determined to execute the folding operation; the electronic device determines that the first screen of the first screen and the second screen is rotated and the second screen is not rotated, which may specifically include: the electronic device determining that a change in the angle of the first screen is greater than a first multiple of a change in the angle of the second screen; or, the electronic device determines that the first screen of the first screen and the second screen is not rotated and the second screen is rotated, which may specifically include: the electronic device determines that a change in the angle of the second screen is greater than a second multiple of a change in the angle of the first screen; or, the electronic device determines that both the first screen and the second screen of the first screen and the second screen are rotated, which may specifically include: the electronic device determines that a ratio of the change in the angle of the first screen to the change in the angle of the second screen is less than a threshold.

Thus, the visual effect to the user is that by rotating the picture in the left screen image set to page to the right, by rotating the picture in the right screen image set to page to the left, by rotating the left screen and the right screen simultaneously, the picture in the left screen is turned to the right, and the picture in the right screen is turned to the left.

In addition, in some embodiments, the angular velocity of the rotated screen is positively correlated with the page turning speed of the image set, i.e., the greater the angular velocity of the rotated screen (i.e., the faster the user turns the screen), the faster the page turning speed of the image set.

Thus, the visual effect given to the user is that the electronic book is turned to the right by rotating the left screen, the electronic book is turned to the left by rotating the right screen, and the current page is recorded as a bookmark page by rotating the left screen and the right screen simultaneously.

In addition, in some embodiments, the angular velocity of the rotated screen is positively correlated with the page turning speed of the electronic book, that is, the greater the angular velocity of the rotated screen (i.e., the faster the user rotates the screen), the faster the page turning speed of the electronic book.

Thus, the visual effect to the user is that the multimedia file is fast-forwarded by rotating the left screen, fast-backed by rotating the right screen, and paused by rotating both the left and right screens.

In addition, in some embodiments, the angular velocity of the rotated screen is positively correlated with the fast forward/fast backward speed of the multimedia file, that is, the greater the angular velocity of the rotated screen (i.e., the faster the user rotates the screen), the faster the fast forward/fast backward speed of the multimedia file.

The embodiment of the application provides a control method of an electronic device with a folding screen, and the method can be applied to the electronic device with the folding screen. In the embodiment of the present application, an electronic device including a folding screen may be referred to as a folding screen electronic device. The folding screen is a display screen and has the characteristic of being foldable. The user can trigger the electronic equipment to execute corresponding events by executing folding operation on the folding screen, so that the man-machine interaction efficiency is improved, and the use experience of the user is improved.

For example, in some embodiments of the present application, the folding screen may be a flexible folding screen. The flexible folded screen may be folded along the folded edge to form a plurality (two or more) of screens.

For example, the flexible folding screen shown in fig. 1 (a) may be folded along a folding edge to form the a-screen 101 and the B-screen 102 shown in fig. 1 (B), and for example, the flexible folding screen shown in fig. 2 (a) may be folded along a folding edge to form the a-screen 201, the B-screen 202, and the C-screen 203 shown in fig. 2 (B), wherein (a) in fig. 1 and (a) in fig. 2 are schematic diagrams of the flexible folding screen when it is not folded, (B) in fig. 1 and (B) in fig. 2 are schematic diagrams of the flexible folding screen when it is folded (half-folded), (C) in fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of the flexible folding screen when it is completely folded, (C) in fig. 2 is a diagram of the flexible folding screen when it is completely folded, an angle α between the a-screen and the B-screen is 0 °, an angle 362 ° in fig. 2, and the flexible folding screen may also be completely folded, (α) and α are both angles, or (α) is an angle of 360 °.

In the case where the folded screen is not folded, the angle between the adjacent screens is 180 °. for example, the angle α between the a screen 101 and the B screen 102 shown in (a) in fig. 1 is 180 °. also, for example, the angle α 1 between the a screen 201 and the B screen 202 shown in (a) in fig. 2 is 180 °, and the angle α 2 between the B screen 202 and the C screen 203 is 180 °. after the folded screen is folded, the angle between the adjacent screens may take a range of [0 °, 180 °).e. the angle α ∈ (0 °, 180 °) between the a screen 101 and the B screen 102 shown in (B) in fig. 1, the angle α 1 ∈ (0 °, 180 °) between the a screen 201 and the B screen 202 shown in (B) in fig. 2, and the angle α 2 ∈ (0 °, 180 °) between the B screen 202 and the C screen 203.

In other embodiments of the present application, the folding screen may be a multi-screen folding screen. The multi-screen folding screen may include a plurality (two or more) of screens. The plurality of screens may be connected in turn by a folding shaft. Each screen can rotate around a folding shaft connected with the screen, and folding of the multi-screen folding screen is achieved.

For example, as shown in (a) of fig. 3, the multi-screen folding screen includes two screens, which are referred to as an a-screen 301 and a B-screen 302, respectively. The A screen 301 and the B screen 302 are connected through a folding shaft, and the A screen 301 and the B screen 302 can rotate around the folding shaft, so that folding of the multi-screen folding screen is achieved. For example, when the a-screen 301 and/or the B-screen 302 are rotated about the folding axis, a multi-screen folding screen shown in (B) of fig. 3 and a multi-screen folding screen shown in (c) of fig. 3 can be formed. Fig. 3 (a) is a schematic diagram of a multi-screen folding screen when the multi-screen folding screen is not folded. Fig. 3 (b) is a schematic diagram of a configuration of the multi-panel folding screen after being half-folded. Fig. 3 (c) is a schematic diagram of the multi-screen folding screen after being completely folded. The multi-screen foldable screen may also include three or more screens, and the specific form and the folding manner thereof can refer to fig. 2 and the related description, which are not repeated herein.

In the case where the folded screen is not folded, the angle α between the a screen 301 and the B screen 302 shown in (a) of fig. 3 is 180 °. when the folded screen is folded, the angle between adjacent screens may be in the range of [0 °, 180 °), for example, the angle α e (0 °, 180 °) between the a screen 301 and the B screen 302 shown in (B) of fig. 3, and the angle α between the a screen 301 and the B screen 302 shown in (c) of fig. 3 is 0 °.

In the above fig. 1-fig. 3, the folding screen of the electronic device is folded longitudinally to achieve the folding of the folding screen. Of course, the folding screen of the electronic device can also be folded transversely to realize the folding of the folding screen. For example, the folding screen is taken as a flexible folding screen. The flexible folding screen shown in fig. 4 (a) is folded along the folding edge, and during the folding process, the a screen and the B screen shown in fig. 4 (B), (c), and (d) may be formed in sequence.

In addition, the above-mentioned fig. 1-4 are schematic diagrams of the angle between the adjacent panels of the folded screen being [0 °, 180 ° ], of course, the angle between the adjacent panels of the folded screen may also be (180 °, 360 ° ], for example, taking the flexible folded screen shown in fig. 1 as an example, the a screen 101 and the B screen 102 shown in fig. 5 (a) and (B) can be formed by folding the flexible folded screen shown in fig. 1 (a) along the folding edge, the angle α between the a screen 101 and the B screen 102 shown in fig. 5 (a) is 360 °. the angle α between the a screen 101 and the B screen 102 shown in fig. 5 (B) is (180 °, 360 °).

And then, according to the determined result, the electronic equipment executes the corresponding event.

Wherein the events performed by the electronic device may be different for different determined results. For example, if the electronic device determines that the first screen is rotated and the second screen is not rotated such that the folding screen of the electronic device is folded, event 1 may be performed. Event 2 may be performed if it is determined that the second screen is rotated and the first screen is not rotated such that the folding screen of the electronic device is folded. Event 3 may be performed if it is determined that both the first screen and the second screen are rotated such that the folding screen of the electronic device is folded. Event 1, event 2, and event 3 are different from each other. Of course, the events performed by the electronic device may be the same for different determined results. For example, event 1, event 2, and event 3 are the same. Alternatively, the events performed by the electronic device may not be identical for different determined outcomes. For example, event 1 is the same as event 2, different from event 3, and the like.

A control method for an electronic device with a foldable screen according to an embodiment of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to specific scenarios. For convenience of description, the following embodiments are described with reference to the electronic device shown in fig. 1, each screen of the electronic device being measured for its orientation by providing a gyro sensor as an example. It will be appreciated that the electronic device includes two screens, an a screen and a B screen respectively. The A screen and the B screen are screens formed by folding the flexible folding screen along the folding edge. The screen a may be the first screen described in this embodiment, and the screen B may be the second screen described in this embodiment.

Fig. 7 is a flowchart illustrating a control method of an electronic device with a foldable screen according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 7, the method may include:

s701, the electronic equipment determines whether the user performs folding operation on a folding screen of the electronic equipment.

For example, the electronic device may determine whether the user performed a folding operation on a folding screen of the electronic device by determining whether the angle α between the a-screen and the B-screen has decreased, if it is determined that the angle α between the a-screen and the B-screen has decreased, the user performs a folding operation on the folding screen, and if the angle α between the a-screen and the B-screen has not decreased, the user does not perform a folding operation on the folding screen.

In some embodiments, the electronic device may determine the angle α between the a-screen and the B-screen using the gyro sensors disposed in the a-screen and the B-screen.

The electronic device can periodically measure and obtain a direction vector of the orientation of each screen through a gyroscope sensor arranged in each screen (such as an A screen and a B screen), for example, the direction vector of the orientation of the A screen and the direction vector of the orientation of the B screen are obtained.

Wherein the coordinate system of the gyro sensor is a geographical coordinate system. The geographic coordinate system is shown in fig. 8, with the origin o at the point where the vehicle (which may refer to the equipment containing the gyroscopic sensor) is located, the x-axis pointing east (E) along the local latitudes, the y-axis pointing north (N) along the local meridian, and the z-axis pointing up along the local geographic vertical, and forming a right-hand orthogonal coordinate system with the x-axis and the y-axis. The plane formed by the x axis and the y axis is the local horizontal plane, and the plane formed by the y axis and the z axis is the local meridian plane. Thus, it can be understood that the coordinate system of the gyro sensor is: the gyroscope sensor is used as an origin o, the direction east along the local latitude line is used as an x axis, the direction north along the local meridian line is used as a y axis, and the direction up along the local geographical vertical line (namely the opposite direction of the geographical vertical line) is used as a z axis.

The electronic device can measure and obtain the direction vector of the orientation of each screen in the coordinate system of the gyro sensor arranged in the electronic device by using the gyro sensor arranged in each screen. For example, taking the case where the a-screen is provided with the gyro sensor a and the B-screen is provided with the gyro sensor B as an example, referring to the side view of the electronic apparatus shown in fig. 9, the direction vector of the orientation of the a-screen in the coordinate system of the gyro sensor a measured by the electronic apparatus is the vector z1, and the B-screen in the gyro sensor B is the vector z1The directional vector of the orientation in the coordinate system of sensor B is vector z 2. Using equation (1):the angle θ between vector z1 and vector z2 can be calculated.

Wherein,

as can be seen from fig. 9, since the vector z1 is perpendicular to the a screen and the vector z2 is perpendicular to the B screen, the angle α between the a screen and the B screen can be obtained as 180 ° - θ, that is, the electronic device can determine the angle α between the a screen and the B screen according to the direction vector of the orientation of the a screen in the coordinate system of the gyro sensor a (i.e., the vector z1) and the direction vector of the orientation of the B screen in the coordinate system of the gyro sensor B (i.e., the vector z 2).

It should be noted that although the positions of the gyro sensors disposed in the a-screen and the B-screen do not overlap, that is, the origins of the coordinate systems of the gyro sensors of the a-screen and the B-screen do not overlap, the x-axis, the y-axis, and the z-axis of the two coordinate systems are parallel, so that the coordinate systems of the gyro sensors disposed in the a-screen and the B-screen can be considered to be parallel. Thus, although the vector z1 and the vector z2 are not in the same coordinate system, the angle θ between the vector z1 and the vector z2 can be calculated by the above equation (1) because the axes of the two coordinate systems are parallel.

Then, the electronic device may determine whether the angle α between the a screen and the B screen has become smaller by comparing the currently determined angle between the a screen and the B screen with the angle between the a screen and the B screen measured last time (or last time).

For example, referring to the side view of the electronic device shown in fig. 10, as shown in (a) of fig. 10, the electronic device may determine, by using the gyro sensors disposed in the a screen and the B screen, that an angle α between the a screen and the B screen at the current time is an angle a, and, as shown in (B) of fig. 10, the electronic device may determine, by using the gyro sensors disposed in the a screen and the B screen, that an angle α between the a screen and the B screen at the previous time is an angle B.

It should be noted that the period for determining the included angle α between the a screen and the B screen may be predefined, may be configured in advance (for example, configured in the electronic device when the electronic device is shipped), or may be set by a user, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited specifically herein.

It is further understood that the above description is directed to determining whether a user performed a folding operation on a folding screen based on whether the determined angle α between the a screen and the B screen (e.g., angle α between the a screen and the B screen is 180 ° - θ) is smaller, and that the electronic device may also determine whether the user performed a folding operation on the folding screen based on whether the angle between the direction vector of the orientation of the a screen and the direction vector of the orientation of the B screen is larger, or that the user performed a folding operation on the folding screen if the angle between the direction vector of the orientation of the a screen and the direction vector of the orientation of the B screen is larger, or that the user did not perform a folding operation on the folding screen if the angle between the direction vector of the orientation of the a screen and the direction vector of the orientation of the B screen is not larger, or that the user performed a folding operation on the folding screen if the angle between the direction vector of the orientation of the a screen and the direction vector of the orientation of the B screen is not larger, or that the electronic device may measure the direction vector of the orientation of the B screen using a sensor provided in the orientation of the gyroscope sensor provided in the a screen, or the orientation of the folding screen, or the electronic device may be considered as larger, or that the orientation of the folding screen is larger, or the orientation of the folding screen, or that the orientation of the folding screen is larger, or the orientation of the folding screen is larger, or the folding screen, or the orientation of the folding screen, or of the folding screen.

If the electronic device determines that the user performs the folding operation on the folding screen of the electronic device, the electronic device may perform a corresponding event in response to the folding operation. In order to be able to correspond the screen rotated by the user to the event performed by the electronic device, in the embodiment of the present application, when determining that the user performs the folding operation, the electronic device may further determine which screen (or screens) is rotated so that the folding screen of the electronic device is folded, that is, the following S702 is performed.

S702, when it is determined that the folding operation is performed on the folding screen of the electronic equipment by the user, the electronic equipment determines the rotated screen in the screen A and the screen B.

Generally, a user may effect folding of a folded screen by rotating one or more screens of an electronic device along a folding edge or folding axis. When determining that the folding operation is performed on the folding screen of the electronic device by the user, the electronic device may determine which screen(s) is (are) rotated so that the folding screen of the electronic device is folded, that is, when determining that the folding operation is performed on the folding screen by the user, the electronic device may determine the rotated screen among the screens (such as the a screen and the B screen) included in the electronic device.

For example, the electronic device may determine the rotated screen of the a screen and the B screen according to an angle change of the a screen and an angle change of the B screen included in the electronic device.

The electronic equipment can determine the angle change of the screen A within the preset time and the angle change of the screen B within the preset time from the moment when the folding operation of the folding screen is determined by the user, so that the rotated screen in the screen A and the screen B is determined by utilizing the determined angle change of the screen A and the angle change of the screen B within the preset time. Taking t1 as an example to represent the preset time, the value range of t1 may be [300 ms, 1 s ].

Theoretically, the electronic device may determine that the rotated screen of the a screen and the B screen is not rotated when the angle of the a screen is determined to be changed and the angle of the B screen is not changed according to the angle change of the a screen and the angle change of the B screen within the preset time. Or when the angle of the screen A is determined not to change and the angle of the screen B is determined to change, the rotated screen in the screen A and the screen B is determined to be the screen B, and the screen A is not rotated. Or when the angle of the screen A is determined to be changed and the angle of the screen B is determined to be changed, the rotated screen in the screen A and the screen B is determined to be the screen A and the screen B.

It is understood that when a user folds the folded screens of the electronic device, if the user wants to rotate one of the screens to fold the folded screen, the user can rotate the screen along the folding edge or the folding axis. In actual operation, another screen adjacent to the screen may also be rotated by the user. That is, the case where the angle of a certain screen does not change in a strict sense does not occur. However, the angle by which the other panel adjacent to the one panel is rotated is necessarily small with respect to the angle by which the one panel is rotated. Therefore, in the embodiment of the application, the electronic device may determine the rotated screen of the a screen and the B screen by comparing the determined angle change of the a screen within the preset time with the determined angle change of the B screen within the preset time.

For example, if the angle change of the a-screen is greater than a first multiple of the angle change of the B-screen within a preset time, the a-screen is considered to be rotated and the B-screen is not rotated. That is, the a screen is rotated and the B screen is not rotated so that the folding screen of the electronic device is folded. And if the angle change of the B screen in the preset time is more than a second multiple of the angle change of the A screen in the preset time, the B screen is considered to be rotated, and the A screen is not rotated. That is, the B screen is rotated, and the a screen is not rotated so that the folding screen of the electronic device is folded. The first multiple and the second multiple may be in a range of [1.5, 3 ]. The value of the first multiple and the value of the second multiple can be the same or different. The values of the first multiple and the second multiple may be predefined or set by a user, and this embodiment is not limited in this embodiment.

And if the ratio of the angle change of the screen A to the angle change of the screen B in the preset time is less than the threshold value, the screen A and the screen B are both considered to be rotated. That is, it is the a-screen and the B-screen that are both rotated so that the folding screen of the electronic device is folded. The threshold value may be in the range of [1.5, 2 ]. The threshold may be predefined or set by a user, and the embodiment is not limited in this respect. It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the ratio of the angle change of the a screen in the preset time to the angle change of the B screen in the preset time may be: the ratio of the maximum value to the minimum value in the angle change of the A screen and the angle change of the B screen. If so, the electronic device determines: the angle change of the screen A in the preset time is theta 1, the angle change of the screen B in the preset time is theta 2, and the ratio of the angle change of the screen A in the preset time to the angle change of the screen B in the preset time is as follows: a ratio of a maximum value of θ 1 and θ 2 to a minimum value of θ 1 and θ 2.

In summary, the result determined by the electronic device may be one of the following three results: results 1: the screen A is rotated, and the screen B is not rotated; result 2, the A screen is not rotated, and the B screen is rotated; results 3: both the a-screen and the B-screen are rotated.

The electronic device can determine the angle change of the corresponding screen within a preset time by using a gyroscope sensor arranged in each screen (such as an A screen and a B screen) of the electronic device. In some embodiments, the electronic device may determine the change of the angle of the screen within a preset time according to the change of the orientation of the corresponding screen within the preset time measured by the gyro sensors disposed in the a screen and the B screen.

For example, taking the preset time as 1 second, and taking the electronic device as an example to determine the angle change of the a screen within 1 second, with reference to fig. 11, a determination process of the angle change of a certain screen (for example, the a screen) within the preset time from the time when it is determined that the user performs the folding operation on the folding screen is described.

If, as shown in fig. 11, the user is using the electronic device in the initial state of the folded screen, i.e. the angle α between the a-screen and the B-screen is 180 ° when the user is folding the folded screen, i.e. the user has performed the folding operation on the folded screen by rotating the a-screen along the folding edge, as shown in fig. 11, it is assumed that, when the user has rotated the a-screen to the position 1, the electronic device detects that the angle α between the a-screen and the B-screen becomes smaller, i.e. the electronic device determines that the user has performed the folding operation on the folded screen, as shown in fig. 11, the electronic device may measure the orientation of the a-screen at the position 1 using a gyro sensor provided in the a-screen, as shown in fig. 11, as the vector z1-1 when the electronic device has determined that the folding operation has been performed on the folded screen by the user, the user may time the measurement of the orientation of the a-screen at the position 1 using gyro sensor provided in the a-screen, as the vector z 6325-1 when the orientation of the folded screen has been determined that the folding operation on the folded screen has been performed by the user, as the vector z-2, as shown in fig. 7, the electronic device may be measured after 1, as the angle 2, the angle # 2, which the orientation of the angle # a-2 vector may be determined from the angle # 1 when the angle # a-7, which is equal to the angle # 1, i.e.e.e.e.e. when the angle # t.e. when the angle # 1, the angle # 2, which the angle # 2 vector which the angle # 1, which is measured after the angle of the folding operation of the folding screen may be equal to the folding operation of the folding screen may be measured after 1, which the folding operation of the folding screen may be equal to the folding screen after 1, which the folding screen may be measured after 1, which is equal to the angle # 1, i.e.e. when the angle # 1, which is equal to the angle # 2 after the angle # 2, i.e.e.e.e.e. when the angle # 2 after 1, which is equal to the angle # 2 after the angle #.

Similarly, when the electronic device determines that the user performs the folding operation on the folding screen, it may also determine that the angle of the B screen changes within a preset time (i.e., 1 second) from the time when the user performs the folding operation on the folding screen. The electronic device determines that the process of determining the angle change of the B screen within 1 second is similar to the process of determining the angle change of the a screen from the moment when the user performs the folding operation on the folding screen, and details are not repeated here.

Therefore, the rotated screen in the screen A and the screen B can be determined by utilizing the determined angle change of the screen A in the preset time and the angle change of the screen B in the preset time. As shown in fig. 11, it can be determined that the a screen is rotated and the B screen is not rotated.

It should be noted that, as described above, the fact that a certain screen is not rotated in the embodiment of the present application does not mean that the angle of the screen is not changed within a preset time, but the angle change of the screen is smaller than the angle change of another screen (e.g., smaller than 1/1.5, 1/2, 1/3, etc.) in this embodiment, in addition, fig. 11 illustrates that the initial state of the folded screen is unfolded, i.e., the angle α between the a screen and the B screen is 180 °, when it is determined that the folding operation is performed on the folded screen by the user, the angle α between the a screen and the B screen is smaller than 180 °, in practical use, the initial state of the folded screen may also be folded, i.e., when the angle α between the a screen and the B screen is smaller than 180 °, and when the angle α between the a screen and the B screen is larger than 180 °, when it is determined that the folding operation is performed on the folded screen by the user, the electronic device may also be in this embodiment, and the angle between the a screen and the B screen may also be smaller than 180 ° and may also be smaller than α.

And S703, the electronic equipment executes the corresponding event according to the rotated screen in the A screen and the B screen.

As described in S702, the result determined by the electronic device may be one of the following three results: results 1: the screen A is rotated, and the screen B is not rotated; result 2, the A screen is not rotated, and the B screen is rotated; results 3: both the a-screen and the B-screen are rotated. Wherein the events performed by the electronic device may be different for different determined results. For example, if the electronic device determines that the user performed a folding operation, and the a-screen is rotated and the B-screen is not rotated, a first event may be performed. If the electronic device determines that the user performed the folding operation, and the a-screen is not rotated and the B-screen is rotated, a second event may be performed. If the electronic device determines that the user performs the folding operation and both the A screen and the B screen are rotated, a third event may be performed. Wherein, the first event, the second event and the third event may be different from each other. Of course, the events performed by the electronic device may be the same for different determined results. For example, the first event, the second event, and the third event are all the same. Alternatively, they may not be identical. For example, the first event is the same as the second event, different from the third event, and so on.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, which event is executed corresponding to different results determined by the electronic device may be predefined or preconfigured in the electronic device, or may be set by a user. That is, which event is performed by which specific screen(s) is rotated may be predefined or may be user-set. If predefined or pre-configured in the electronic device, the electronic device may display a prompt message (e.g., may be displayed when the corresponding application is first (or each time) run) for prompting the user what events the electronic device may be triggered to perform by rotating the corresponding screen. If the user setting is available, a setting interface can be provided for the user to set what events the electronic equipment can be triggered to execute by rotating the corresponding screen.

Taking a specific scenario as an example, a specific event executed by the electronic device according to the determined result is described below.

Scene 1: in conjunction with fig. 1, an example is given in which a user is viewing pictures in a collection of images, such as pictures in a gallery, using an electronic device.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 11, when a user views a picture using an electronic device, an included angle α between an A screen and a B screen included in a folding screen of the electronic device is 180 degrees if the user rotates the A screen in a clockwise direction along the folding edge without rotating the B screen, then the electronic device may detect that the included angle α between the A screen and the B screen is reduced, i.e., it is determined that the user performed a folding operation on the folding screen.

In other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 12, when a user views a picture using an electronic device, the angle α between the A and B screens included in a folded screen of the electronic device is 180 degrees if the user rotates the B screen in a counterclockwise direction along the folded edge without rotating the A screen, then the electronic device may detect that the angle α between the A and B screens is reduced, i.e., it is determined that the user performed a folding operation on the folded screen, the electronic device may also determine that the user performed folding of the folded screen by rotating the B screen without rotating the A screen, i.e., the electronic device determines that the rotated one of the A and B screens is the B screen and the A screen is not rotated, at which time, the electronic device may perform events 1-2 in response to the folding operation, e.g., because the A screen is located on the left side of the folded edge and the B screen is located on the right side of the folded edge, the event 1-2 performed by the electronic device may be that a picture in a gallery is flipped to the left, e., a picture in the gallery is displayed as a picture in a picture gallery before the user performed folding operation, e., a picture in a picture gallery is displayed as a folded picture in a page 3, and thus, the electronic device may be viewed by rotating the example, a picture in a picture gallery.

It should be noted that the descriptions in the corresponding examples of fig. 11 and fig. 12 are introduced by taking the example that the picture displayed on the folding screen (the a screen and the B screen) by the electronic device is a picture (i.e., the picture is tiled on the a screen and the B screen). Of course, when the user views the pictures by using the electronic device, different pictures can be displayed on the A screen and the B screen. Therefore, when the electronic equipment determines that one of the screen A and the screen B is rotated, the picture displayed on the rotated screen can be turned to the corresponding direction. For example, when the electronic device determines that the rotated screen of the a screen and the B screen is not rotated, the picture displayed on the a screen may be turned to the right, and the picture displayed on the B screen is not changed. For another example, when the electronic device determines that the rotated screen of the a screen and the B screen is the B screen and the a screen is not rotated, the picture displayed on the B screen may be turned to the left, and the picture displayed on the a screen is not changed. Of course, when it is determined that one of the a screen and the B screen is rotated, the electronic device may also turn the page of the image displayed on the rotated screen to the corresponding direction, and tile the image on the a screen and the B screen. For example, when the electronic device determines that the rotated screen of the a screen and the B screen is not rotated, a previous picture of the picture displayed on the a screen may be tiled on the a screen and the B screen. For another example, when the electronic device determines that the rotated screen of the a screen and the B screen is the B screen and the a screen is not rotated, the next picture displayed on the B screen may be tiled on the a screen and the B screen.

In still other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 13, when a user views a picture using an electronic device, the angle α between the A screen and the B screen included in the folding screen of the electronic device is 180 degrees. if the user rotates the A screen in a clockwise direction and rotates the B screen in a counterclockwise direction along the folding edge, then the electronic device may detect that the angle α between the A screen and the B screen is reduced, i.e., it is determined that the user performed a folding operation on the folding screen. the electronic device may also determine that the user performed folding of the folding screen by rotating the A screen and the B screen, i.e., the electronic device determines that the rotated one of the A screen and the B screen is the A screen and the B screen, at this time, the electronic device may perform events 1-3 in response to the folding operation, e.g., because the A screen is located on the left side of the folding edge and the B screen is located on the right side of the folding edge, the events 1-3 performed by the electronic device may be that the A screen is turned to the right, and the B screen is turned to the left, e.e., such that the library of the A screen displayed on the electronic device is displayed as a top picture library of a picture 1-folded picture 1, and the top picture library of the electronic device is displayed as a picture library of a picture 1-up picture library of a picture 1, and the electronic device is displayed on the electronic device displayed as a picture library of a picture 1, and the electronic picture library of a picture library displayed on the electronic device is displayed on the electronic device, and the electronic picture library of a.

Scene 2: in conjunction with fig. 1, a user is browsing an electronic book using an electronic device.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 11, when a user is browsing an electronic book using an electronic device, an included angle α between an A screen and a B screen included in a folding screen of the electronic device is 180 degrees, if the user rotates the A screen in a clockwise direction along the folding edge without rotating the B screen, then the electronic device may detect that an included angle α between the A screen and the B screen becomes smaller, i.e., it is determined that the user performed a folding operation on the folding screen, the electronic device may further determine that the user performed folding of the folding screen by rotating the A screen without rotating the B screen, i.e., the electronic device determines that the rotated one of the A screen and the B screen is not rotated, at this time, the electronic device may perform an event 2-1 in response to the folding operation, e.e., since the A screen is located on the left side of the folding edge and the B screen is located on the right side of the folding edge, the event 2-1 performed by the electronic device may be that the content of the electronic device is turned to the right.

In other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 12, when a user is browsing an electronic book using an electronic device, an included angle α between an A screen and a B screen included in a folding screen of the electronic device is 180 degrees, if the user rotates the B screen in a counterclockwise direction along the folding edge without rotating the A screen, then the electronic device may detect that an included angle α between the A screen and the B screen is reduced, i.e., it is determined that the folding operation is performed on the folding screen by the user, the electronic device may further determine that the folding operation is performed by the user by rotating the B screen without rotating the A screen, i.e., the electronic device determines that the rotated one of the A screen and the B screen is the B screen and the A screen is not rotated, at this time, the electronic device may perform an event 2-2 in response to the folding operation, e.e., because the A screen is located on the left side of the folding edge and the B screen is located on the right side of the folding edge, the event 2-2 performed by the electronic device may be that the content of the electronic device is turned to the left.

In still other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 13, when a user views a picture using an electronic device, an included angle α between an A-screen and a B-screen included in a folding screen of the electronic device is 180 degrees if the user rotates the A-screen in a clockwise direction and rotates the B-screen in a counterclockwise direction along the folding edge, then the electronic device may detect that the included angle α between the A-screen and the B-screen is smaller, i.e., it is determined that the folding operation was performed on the folding screen by the user, the electronic device may also determine that the folding of the folding screen was performed by the user by rotating the A-screen and the B-screen, i.e., the electronic device determines that the rotated one of the A-screen and the B-screen is the A-screen and the B-screen, at which time, the electronic device may perform events 2-3 in response to the folding operation, e.e., the events 2-3 performed by the electronic device may be such that a current page of a displayed on the folding screen is recorded as an example of a bookmark, and the current page of the electronic book is recorded as a bookmark added to the electronic book before the folding operation, e.e., the electronic book is displayed as an electronic book displayed by the rotating the electronic device, and the electronic book is recorded as an electronic book, and the electronic book is displayed page is recorded as.

Scene 3: in conjunction with fig. 1, a user is watching a multimedia file, such as a video, using an electronic device.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 11, a user viewing a video using an electronic device may include an A-screen and a B-screen at an angle α of 180 degrees when viewing the video using the electronic device, if the user rotates the A-screen in a clockwise direction along the fold without rotating the B-screen, then the electronic device may detect that the angle α between the A-screen and the B-screen has decreased, i.e., it is determined that the user performed a folding operation on the folded screen.

In other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 12, the user may view the video using the electronic device if the B-screen is rotated in a counterclockwise direction along the folding edge and the A-screen is not rotated. Then, the electronic device may determine that the user performed the folding operation on the folding screen, and also determine that the user does not rotate the a screen to fold the folding screen by rotating the B screen, that is, determine that the rotated screen of the a screen and the B screen is the B screen, and the a screen is not rotated. At this point, the electronic device may perform event 3-2 in response to the fold operation. For example, since the a-screen is located on the left side of the folding edge and the B-screen is located on the right side of the folding edge, the event 3-2 performed by the electronic device may be: and fast rewinding the video. In this way, the user sees the effect of: and the fast backward of the video is realized by rotating the B screen.

In still other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 13, when a user is viewing a video using the electronic device, if the user has rotated the A-screen in a clockwise direction along the fold edge and has rotated the B-screen in a counter-clockwise direction. Then, the electronic device may determine that the user performed a folding operation on the folding screen, and may also determine that the user folds the folding screen by rotating the a screen and the B screen, that is, determine that the rotated screen of the a screen and the B screen is the a screen and the B screen. At this point, the electronic device may perform event 3-3 in response to the fold operation. For example, event 3-3 performed by the electronic device may be: pause the video or exit the video playing interface. In this way, the user sees the effect of: the video is paused or quitted from the video playing interface by simultaneously rotating the A screen and the B screen.

Of course, the electronic device executes the application of the corresponding event according to the rotated screen of the determined screen a and the screen B, which is not limited to the above-mentioned scenes 1 to 3, but may also be applied to other scenes. For example, a user is listening to music using an electronic device as an example. If the user folds the folding screen of the electronic equipment by rotating the screen A without rotating the screen B, the electronic equipment can play the last piece of music of the currently played music. If the user folds the folding screen of the electronic equipment by rotating the screen B without rotating the screen A, the electronic equipment can play the next piece of music of the currently played music. If the user rotates the a screen and the B screen simultaneously to fold the folding screen of the electronic apparatus, the electronic apparatus may pause the playing of music, etc. For another example, if the user folds the folding screen of the electronic device by rotating the a screen without rotating the B screen, the electronic device turns down the system volume (e.g., turns down the ring tone). If the user folds the folding screen of the electronic equipment by rotating the B screen without rotating the A screen, the electronic equipment can increase the volume of the system (such as turning a ringing tone). If the user rotates the A screen and the B screen simultaneously to fold the folding screen of the electronic device, the electronic device may turn the system volume to 0 (e.g., mute the ring tone).

It should be noted that, in the above scenario, if the user rotates different screens, the content displayed by the electronic device may be triggered to change, such as scenario 1, scenario 2, and scenario 3. Then, in the process of folding the folding screen of the electronic device by the user, the electronic device may switch the displayed content from the current interface to the other interfaces in a gradual animation manner as the folding screen is folded. For example, in combination with scene 1 and fig. 11, during the rotation of the a screen by the user, the electronic device switches the displayed content from picture 1 to picture 2 in a gradual animation manner as the a screen rotates. As another example, in conjunction with scene 2 and fig. 12, during the rotation of the B screen by the user, the electronic device switches the displayed content from page 10 of the electronic book to page 11 of the electronic book in a gradual animation manner as the B screen rotates. Of course, the mode switching may be performed without the gradation animation.

In addition, the change speed of the gradual animation can be different along with the different angular speed of the rotated screen. Illustratively, the greater the angular velocity of the rotated screen (i.e., the faster the user rotates the screen), the faster the rate of change of the fade animation. For example, in conjunction with scene 1 and fig. 11, during the process of the user rotating the a screen, the greater the rotated angular speed of the a screen, the faster the electronic device switches the displayed content from picture 1 to picture 2. The experience for the user is that the larger the speed of rotating the screen is, the faster the picture page turning speed is. For another example, in combination with scene 3 and fig. 12, in the process of rotating the B screen by the user, the greater the rotated angular speed of the B screen is, the faster the electronic device fast-backs the video. The experience for the user is that the greater the speed of rotating the screen, the faster the fast-rewind (or fast-forward) speed of the video. For another example, the video may be fast-forwarded/fast-rewound according to a larger number of pages turned over by the picture or the electronic book as the angular speed of the rotated screen is larger (i.e., the speed of the user rotating the screen is faster). As with scene 1 and fig. 11, when the angular velocity of the rotated screen is angular velocity 1, the electronic device switches the displayed content from picture 1 to picture 2. When the angular speed of the rotated screen is 2, the electronic equipment switches the displayed content from picture 1 to picture 8. Picture 8 is the top three pictures of picture 1. The number of page turns or the fast forward/fast backward ratio can also be determined according to the change of the angle of the rotated screen. For example, in connection with scene 1 and scene 2, each time the angle of the rotated screen changes by X °, for example, X equals 3 or another numerical value, a picture is turned over or an electronic book is turned over. As another example, in connection with scene 3, the video is fast forward/fast backward by 1% or 1 minute for every change in the angle of the rotated screen by Y °, e.g., Y equals 2 or another value.
