ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND METHOD BY WHICH ELECTRONIC DEVICE INPUTS INFORMATION BY USING EXTERNAL ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18468325 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND METHOD BY WHICH ELECTRONIC DEVICE INPUTS INFORMATION BY USING EXTERNAL ELECTRONIC DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
An electronic device is described in this patent application. The device includes communication circuitry, a display module, a processor, and memory. The memory stores instructions that, when executed, allow the processor to control a field for inputting text through the display. The device can receive user input for the text input field and confirm whether the field is a predetermined type. If it is, the device can transmit information related to the type of keyboard to be used through an external electronic device. The device can then receive data input based on the keyboard type from the external device and input the data into the field.
- The patent application describes an electronic device with communication circuitry, a display, and a processor.
- The device can display a text input field and receive user input for that field.
- It can determine if the field is a predetermined type and confirm information related to the type of keyboard to be used.
- The device can transmit this information to an external electronic device.
- It can receive data input based on the keyboard type from the external device.
- The device can then input the received data into the text input field.
Potential applications of this technology:
- This technology can be used in smartphones, tablets, and other electronic devices with text input fields.
- It can improve the user experience by allowing the device to adapt the keyboard type based on the field being used.
- This can be particularly useful for specialized fields such as scientific or technical writing.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Users often have to manually switch between different keyboard types when entering text in different fields.
- This technology automates the process by determining the field type and selecting the appropriate keyboard.
Benefits of this technology:
- It simplifies the text input process for users by automatically selecting the appropriate keyboard.
- It saves time and effort by eliminating the need for manual keyboard switching.
- It improves accuracy by ensuring that the correct keyboard type is used for each field.
Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes communication circuitry, a display module, a processor operatively connected to the communication circuitry and the display, and memory, wherein the memory stores instructions, when executed, the processor controls a field for inputting text through the display is displayed, receive a user input for the field for inputting the text, confirm whether the field is a predetermined type, in response to the reception of the user input, confirm information related to the type of keyboard to be output through an external electronic device, if the field is the predetermined type, transmit, to the external electronic device, the confirmed information related to the type of keyboard through the communication circuitry, receive, from the external electronic device, data input on the basis of the keyboard corresponding to the keyboard type, and input data for the field on the basis of the received data.
