According to the embodiments of the present invention, it is provided an electronic apparatus, which includes:


a fixing unit, configured to maintain a relative position relationship between the electronic apparatus and a user's head or wrist; the fixing unit is configured to maintain a first relative position relationship between the electronic apparatus and the user's wrist; the fixing unit is configured to maintain a second relative position relationship between the electronic apparatus and the user's head; and


a display unit, fixedly disposed on the fixing unit;


where,


the electronic apparatus is in a first use mode, in the case where the fixing unit maintains the first relative position relationship between the electronic apparatus and the user's head; and


the electronic apparatus is in a second use mode, in the case where the fixing unit maintains the second relative position relationship between the electronic apparatus and the user's wrist, and the first use mode is different from the second use mode.


Implementations of the technical solutions will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.


Embodiment 1

In the present embodiment, the electronic apparatus may be a wearable electronic apparatus, herein, various components in the wearable electronic apparatus may be designed integrally, that is, the various components cannot be rotated/detached from each other and cannot be reassembled, and they are in a completely fixed connection.



FIG. 1 shows a wearable electronic apparatus of the embodiment of the present invention which includes:


a fixing unit 11, configured to maintain a relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and a user's head; the fixing unit 11 is able to maintain a first relative position relationship and a second relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head, and the first relative position relationship is different from the second relative position relationship;


a display unit 12, fixedly disposed on the fixing unit 11;


a first sound output unit 13, located at a first end of the fixing unit 11;


a second sound output unit 14, located at a second end of the fixing unit 11, and the first end is different from the second end, herein:


the wearable electronic apparatus is in a first use mode, in the case where the fixing unit 11 maintains the first relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head; and


the wearable electronic apparatus is in a second use mode, in the case where the fixing unit 11 maintains the second relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head.


In the present embodiment, preferably, the various components in the wearable electronic apparatus may be designed integrally, that is, the various components cannot be rotated/detached from each other and cannot be reassembled in an arbitrary manner.


At this point, due to the integrally designed wearable electronic apparatus, the fixed connection between the fixing unit and the first sound output unit and/or the second sound output unit cannot be adjusted/rotated. Thus, when the first relative position relationship and the second relative position relationship is switched therebetween, the only thing that can do is to put on or take off the wearable electronic apparatus. For example, in the case where the fixing unit maintains the first relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head, the wearable electronic apparatus is put on the user's head to function as a headset, and the corresponding first use mode is that the user of the wearable electronic apparatus listens to the sound output from the wearable electronic apparatus. As another example, in the case where the fixing unit maintains the second relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head, the wearable electronic apparatus is taken off from the head and is mounted above the eyes to function as glasses by using the display unit on the fixing unit, and the corresponding second use mode is that the user of the wearable electronic apparatus watches such as image and video output from the wearable electronic apparatus.


In the case where the relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head maintained by the fixing unit is switched from the first relative position relationship to the second relative position relationship, positions of the first sound output unit at the first end of the fixing unit and the second sound output unit at the second end of the fixing unit relative to the user's head of the wearable electronic apparatus are maintained to be approximately constant, that is, both around the ears, respectively.


Using the wearable electronic apparatus of the present invention, with the change between the first relative position relationship and the second relative position relationship, the use mode is switched between the first use mode and the second use mode and thus a corresponding first operating mode or a corresponding second operating mode is performed, which will make the user's hands free, will not affect the user's current information processing operation and will meet the user's combined experiences of functional requirements, entertainment requirements and usability requirements etc.


Embodiment 2

Various components of the wearable electronic apparatus is not integrally designed, that is, the various components are not fixedly connected to each other, can be rotated/detached from each other and reassembled in an arbitrary manner.



FIG. 1 shows a wearable electronic apparatus of the embodiment of the present invention which includes:


a fixing unit 11, configured to maintain a relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and a user's head; the fixing unit 11 is able to maintain a first relative position relationship and a second relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head, and the first relative position relationship is different from the second relative position relationship;


a display unit 12, fixedly disposed on the fixing unit 11;


a first sound output unit 13, located at a first end of the fixing unit 11;


a second sound output unit 14, located at a second end of the fixing unit 11, and the first end is different from the second end, herein:


the wearable electronic apparatus is in a first use mode, in the case where the fixing unit 11 maintains the first relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head; and


the wearable electronic apparatus is in a second use mode, in the case where the fixing unit 11 maintains the second relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head.


In the present embodiment, preferably, the various components of the wearable electronic apparatus are not designed integrally, that is, the various components can be rotated/detached from each other and can be reassembled in an arbitrary manner, i.e. the first sound output unit and the fixing unit are rotatably connected to each other and the second sound output unit and the fixing unit are rotatably connected to each other, so that when the relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head to be switched from the first relative position relationship to the second relative position relationship, the position of the fixing unit relative to the user's head is changed and the relative positions between user's head and the first, and between the user's head and the second sound output units are maintained constant. The present embodiment is different from the completely fixed manner of Embodiment 1.


At this point, due to the non-integrally designed wearable electronic apparatus, when the first relative position relationship and the second relative position relationship is switched therebetween, it is not required to put on or take off the wearable electronic apparatus. In the case where the fixing unit maintains the first relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head, the wearable electronic apparatus is put on the user's head to function as a headset, and the corresponding first use mode is that the user of the wearable electronic apparatus listens to the sound output from the wearable electronic apparatus. As another example, in the case where the fixing unit maintains the second relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head, due to the non-integrally designed wearable electronic apparatus, the connection between the fixing unit and the first sound output unit and/or the second sound output unit is a non-fixed connection which can be adjusted/rotated, and it is not required to take off the wearable electronic apparatus from the head. With this non-fixed connection, the fixing unit is mounted above the eyes to function as glasses by using the display unit on the fixing unit, and the corresponding second use mode is that the user observes such as image and video output from the wearable electronic apparatus. In the case where it is required to return to the first use mode, the modes can be switched therebetween repeatedly by this on-fixed connection.


In the case where the relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head maintained by the fixing unit is switched from the first relative position relationship to the second relative position relationship, positions of the first sound output unit at the first end of the fixing unit and the second sound output unit at the second end of the fixing unit relative to the user's head of the wearable electronic apparatus are maintained to be approximately constant, that is, both around the ears, respectively.


Using the wearable electronic apparatus of the present invention, with the change between the first relative position relationship and the second relative position relationship, the use mode is switched between the first use mode and the second use mode and thus a corresponding first operating mode or a corresponding second operating mode is performed, and by this non-fixed connection, the modes can be switched therebetween randomly, which will make the user's hands free, will not affect the user's current information processing operation and will meet the user's combined experiences of functional requirements, entertainment requirements and usability requirements etc.


Embodiment 3

The display is an ordinary display.

a display unit 12, fixedly disposed on the fixing unit 11;


a first sound output unit 13, located at a first end of the fixing unit 11;


a second sound output unit 14, located at a second end of the fixing unit 11, and the first end is different from the second end, herein:


the wearable electronic apparatus is in a first use mode, in the case where the fixing unit 11 maintains the first relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head; and


the wearable electronic apparatus is in a second use mode, in the case where the fixing unit 11 maintains the second relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head.


In the present embodiment, preferably, the display unit is located at a first position on the fixing unit so that light output from the display unit to form a display image is incident on eyes of the user in the case where the fixing unit maintains the second relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head.


In the present embodiment, the display unit may be implemented as an ordinary display unit, such as a display, that is, the display unit is particularly a display. In this case, only a predefined virtual image can be displayed. For example, the display may be a LCD or LED screen.

Embodiment 4

The display unit is a transparent display unit.



FIG. 1 shows a wearable electronic apparatus of the embodiment of the present invention which includes:


a fixing unit 11, configured to maintain a relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and a user's head; the fixing unit 11 is able to maintain a first relative position relationship and a second relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head, and the first relative position relationship is different from the second relative position relationship;

a first sound output unit 13, located at a first end of the fixing unit 11;


a second sound output unit 14, located at a second end of the fixing unit 11, and the first end is different from the second end, herein:


the wearable electronic apparatus is in a first use mode, in the case where the fixing unit 11 maintains the first relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head; and


the wearable electronic apparatus is in a second use mode, in the case where the fixing unit 11 maintains the second relative position relationship between the wearable electronic apparatus and the user's head.

In the case where the transparency is higher than a threshold, both a virtual image and a real physical world can be seen. Using the embodiment of the present invention, an overlay effect can be produced. For example, when seeing a building in the front, information such as the longitude and latitude information of the building or what companies working in the building may be captured to be a virtual image which will be superimposed on the building; alternatively, a selection may be made, that is, in the case where the transparency is higher, more transparent, using the embodiment of the present invention, an effect of not shading eyes may be produced so that the user can see the real physical world, for example, looking at where he is going or looking at a building in the front; and in the case where the transparency is lower, more opaque, using the embodiment of the present invention, an effect of shading eyes may be produced so that the user may see a virtual image, such as a map navigation image.


Using the wearable electronic apparatus of the present invention, with different manners the display unit outputs the image, the user may select to observe a single virtual image, a single real physical world or observe a superimposed image formed by combining the virtual image and the real physical world so as to present a user with combination of a simple physical image and information associated with it so that in addition to making the user's hands free, the user's experience can be increased and the user's combined experiences of functional requirements, entertainment requirements and usability requirements etc can be better met.
