Abstract
The present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for controlling a flexible screen and an electronic device. The method includes: obtaining a press parameter with respect to a motor drive switch; and controlling a motor to rotate according to the press parameter, to unfold or fold the flexible screen. The flexible screen can be controlled to unfold and fold to obtain a suitable screen size.
Claims13
A control method of an electronic device having a flexible screen, comprising:
- obtaining a press parameter with respect to a motor drive switch, wherein the press parameter comprises a press duration of pressing the motor drive switch, in which the press duration is a time period corresponding to a press intensity in a range in a process from the user contacting with the motor drive switch to leaving the motor drive switch, and the press duration is obtained by obtaining an intensity change curve during a press process and counting the time period in which the press intensity is in the range according to the intensity change curve;
- and
- controlling a motor to rotate according to a preset mapping relationship between press durations and values of rotation turns of the motor, in which one or more of the following is controlled according to the press intensity:
- a rotation speed and the value of rotation turns of the motor, the motor being configured to unfold or fold the flexible screen and control a speed or degree of folding or unfolding the flexible screen,
- wherein the press parameter further comprises at least one of a number of presses of pressing the motor drive switch, and a press intensity of pressing the motor drive switch, and
- wherein, after obtaining the press parameter with respect to the motor drive switch and before controlling the motor to rotate according to the press parameter, the method further comprises:
- determining whether the press intensity is within a preset range;
- determining whether the press duration is greater than a second preset threshold when determining that the press intensity is within the preset range;
- and performing the operation of controlling the motor to rotate according to the press parameter when determining that the press duration is greater than the second preset threshold.
