Abstract
The present invention discloses a force feedback hand training method including: providing a training game content and adjusting the training game content based on predetermined parameters; displaying the training game content on a display; determining whether an input button position of at least one input signal from a hand training device matches a predetermined input button position; and storing a determination result in a storage module.
Claims17
A force feedback hand training method, comprising:
- providing a training game content and adjusting the training game content based on predetermined parameters;
- displaying the training game content on a display;
- determining whether an input button position of at least one input signal from a hand training device matches a predetermined input button position;
- and
- storing a determination result in a storage module, wherein:
- the hand training device, comprising:
- a bottom surface;
- a top surface connecting to the bottom surface;
- a plurality of buttons, wherein the plurality of buttons are configured on one side of a connecting portion of the top surface and the bottom surface, and are spaced apart from each other, wherein a moving direction of the button is parallel to the bottom surface;
- a plurality of pressure sensors, wherein each pressure sensor respectively corresponds to the button;
- a signal transmitter configured to transmit signals generated by the pressure sensors;
- a fixing portion having a ring structure with a hole, wherein the fixing portion is configured on a side of the button opposite to the pressure sensor;
- an angle sensor, wherein the angle sensor is configured on a side of the button same to the pressure sensor;
- and
- a pivot, wherein the pivot connects the fixing portion and the angle sensor, when the fixing portion moves along a direction parallel to the bottom surface, the pivot rotates along a direction normal to the bottom surface.
