Method and terminal for triggering application programs and application program functions

A mobile terminal with touch-based triggering functionality, comprising:

• a parameter setting module configured to:
• receive a plurality of touch trajectories;
• based on application programs or application program functions to be configured, establish a mapping index table for storing mapping relationships between the received touch trajectories and the application programs or application program functions;
• and
• store the mapping index table on the mobile terminal;
• a trajectory acquisition module configured to:
• detect and respond to a touch event;
• and
• obtain a touch trajectory corresponding to the touch event;
• and
• a function trigger module configured to
• compare the obtained touch trajectory with the touch trajectories stored in the mapping index table for similarity matching;
• and
• when the obtained touch trajectory matches a stored touch trajectory in the mapping index table, trigger the application program or application program function corresponding to the stored touch trajectory.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer program for, when being executed by a processor, performing a touch-based triggering method for a mobile terminal, the method comprising:

• receiving a plurality of touch trajectories;
• based on application programs or application program functions to be configured, establishing a mapping index table for storing mapping relationships between the received touch trajectories and the application programs or application program functions;
• storing the mapping index table on the mobile terminal;
• detecting and responding to a touch event;
• obtaining a touch trajectory corresponding to the touch event;
• comparing the obtained touch trajectory with the touch trajectories stored in the mapping index table for similarity matching;
• and
• when the obtained touch trajectory matches a stored touch trajectory in the mapping index table, triggering the application program or application program function corresponding to the stored touch trajectory.
