Abstract

The present invention relates to a touch area correction method and apparatus. The apparatus may include a memory storing at least one program, at least one communication module for performing communication, and a processor for performing calculations by executing said at least one program. A processor may be a device that receives input from a user touching a predetermined area including a first interface among areas displayed on a vehicle display, and outputs a second interface corresponding to the first interface based on whether the area receiving the user's input is a first area displaying the first interface or a second area corrected based on the first area.

A computer-readable recording medium storing a program for executing the method according to claim 1 on a computer.

Description

Method and apparatus for touch area calibration The present invention relates to a touch area correction method and device. Conventional vehicle IVI (In-Vehicle Infotainment) systems provide a fixed touch area, making it difficult for drivers to accurately touch the screen while driving. In particular, driver touch errors can occur depending on road conditions. Such errors cause inconvenience to the driver and can also affect driving safety. In addition, current vehicle IVI systems lack user profile-based data management capabilities, which caused inconvenience for drivers who had to reconfigure the settings for the vehicle IVI system whenever they used a rental car or another vehicle. Accordingly, there is a need for technology that can improve the accuracy of touch operations on vehicle IVI systems and enhance user convenience. The aforementioned background technology is technical information that the inventor possessed for the derivation of the present invention or acquired during the process of deriving the present invention, and it cannot be considered as prior art disclosed to the general public prior to the filing of the present invention. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating a case where a touch error occurs in a display inside a vehicle according to one embodiment. FIG. 2 is a drawing for explaining the overall system of the present invention according to one embodiment. FIG. 3a is a block diagram of a touch area correction device according to one embodiment. FIG. 3b is a diagram illustrating a touch area correction model according to one embodiment. FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a touch area correction method according to one embodiment. FIG. 5a is a diagram illustrating a process for identifying a user according to one embodiment. FIG. 5b is a flowchart illustrating a process for identifying a user according to one embodiment. FIG. 6a is a diagram illustrating the process of correcting a touch area when there is no other operating UI in the vicinity according to one embodiment. FIG. 6b is a flowchart illustrating the process of correcting a touch area when there is no other operating UI nearby according to one embodiment. FIG. 7a is a diagram illustrating the process of correcting a touch area when there is another operation UI nearby according to one embodiment. FIG. 7b is a flowchart illustrating the process of correcting a touch area when there is another operation UI nearby according to one embodiment. FIG. 8 is a flowchart illustrating the process of transmitting touch area correction data between vehicles according to one embodiment.
