FIG. 2A is a flowchart of a control method according to an embodiment of the disclosure. The control method shown in FIG. 2A may be executed by the electronic system 1 shown in FIG. 1. Therefore, please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2A to better understand the control method described in the following paragraphs.


The control method shown in FIG. 2A includes steps S20 to S22. In step S20, the electronic device 10 may receive the initial image information from the electronic device 12 (that is, external electronic device) through the bridge device 11. In step S21, the electronic device 10 executes the audiovisual module 105 to transform the initial image information with the first image format into the transformed image information with the second image format, and the transformed image information is displayed on the display 100 of the electronic device 10. In step S22, the electronic device 10 executes the control module 104 to receive the control signal for operating the transformed image information, and provide the control signal to the electronic device 12 through the bridge device 11 (that is, external electronic device).


In an embodiment, the electronic device 10 of the electronic system 1 may be a computer device, and the electronic device 12 may be a smart phone. The bridge device 11 is coupled to the image output port of the electronic device 12 to acquire the initial image information from the electronic device 12. In this way, in step S20, the electronic device 10 may receive the initial image information with a mobile phone image format from the electronic device 12 through the bridge device 11. In step S21, the electronic device 10 may establish a coordinate transformation relationship between the initial image information and the transformed image information to transform at least one of a display range, a resolution, and a display direction in the initial image information. For example, the processor 10 may scale or crop the initial image information to set the resolution or image range of the transformed image information. Alternatively, the processor 10 may determine the display direction of the initial image information to adaptively transform the display direction to a direction suitable for the display 100 to display. In addition, the initial image information may include black areas generated when transformed to standard video specifications, and the processor 10 may determine that the black areas are invalid areas and set image boundaries that exclude the invalid areas so as to prevent the user from operating in the invalid areas.


Then, in step S22, the user may operate on the display 100 of the electronic device 10 according to the screen displayed by the transformed image information to generate a control signal to control the electronic device 12. For example, the user may use a mouse to click on a first coordinate of the screen displayed by the display 100 in the transformed image information.


The processor 101 may calculate a second coordinate in the initial image information corresponding to the first coordinate in the transformed image information according to the coordinate transformation relationship between the initial image information and the transformed image information established in step S21. The processor 101 may provide the second coordinate and the control signal to the electronic device 12 through the bridge device 11 for control.


For example, according to the control method shown in FIG. 2A, the user may watch the screen displayed by the display 100 of the electronic device 10 and directly click on the displayed screen, and then the processor 101 may generate the control signal according to the coordinate transformation relationship to correctly control the electronic device 12, thereby effectively improving the convenience in operation.


In one example, the electronic device 12 may operate on an Android operating system. Thus, an image may be acquired from the image output port of the electronic device 12 through the bridge device 11 and provided to the electronic device 10. That is, the function of watching and controlling the image of the electronic device 12 may be provided to the electronic device 10. In this way, the disclosure effectively prevents the electronic device 12 from enabling the developer option or enabling the USB debugging function through the Android Debug Bridge (ADB) command, and effectively avoids possible security or information risks for the electronic device 12.


In another example, after the bridge device 11 acquires an image from the electronic device 12, in addition to providing the function of watching and controlling the electronic device 12 to the electronic device 10, the bridge device 11 may provide the function of watching the electronic device 12 to another coupled external display device (not shown in FIG. 1) to share and display the image. In this way, the external display device may acquire the initial image information provided by the electronic device 12 through the bridge device 11 for display.


Although the electronic system 1 in FIG. 1 only shows one bridge device 11 and one electronic device 12 that provides the initial image information, the disclosure is not limited thereto. In an embodiment, the bridge device 11 may be coupled to a plurality of electronic devices 12, and all the electronic devices 12 may provide the initial image information to the bridge device 11. The bridge device 11 has a switch circuit to provide one or more pieces of initial image information to the electronic device 10 according to the control of the electronic device 10 so that the electronic device 10 may select one of the electronic devices 12 for watching and control through the bridge device 11.


Alternatively, in an embodiment, the electronic device 10 may be connected to a plurality of bridge devices 11, and the bridge devices 11 may be respectively connected to the corresponding electronic devices 12 for the electronic device 10 to acquire the function of watching and controlling the corresponding electronic device 12 through each bridge device 11. In this way, each bridge device 11 may provide the initial image information of the corresponding electronic device 12 to the electronic device 10, and the electronic device 10 may select one or more bridge devices 11 for display.


In addition, in an embodiment, the electronic device 10 may be connected to a plurality of bridge devices 11, and each bridge device 11 may be connected to one or more corresponding electronic devices 12, which also falls within the scope of the disclosure.


In summary, according to the electronic device, electronic system, and control method of the disclosure, the user may watch the initial image information provided by other electronic devices on the electronic device without changing the user setting of the electronic device. In addition, the user may provide a control signal on the electronic device that the user is watching to directly control the external electronic device through the bridge device and the application. Therefore, the disclosure not only eliminates complicated setting procedures and effectively improves the convenience in watching and operation but also effectively protects user information.



FIG. 2B is a flowchart of a control method according to an embodiment of the disclosure. Since the control method shown in FIG. 2B is similar to the control method shown in FIG. 2A, the same steps are denoted by the same reference numerals, and for the descriptions thereof, please refer to the relevant paragraphs above, which will not be repeated hereinafter. The control method shown in FIG. 2B may be executed by the electronic system 1 shown in FIG. 1. Therefore, please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2B to better understand the control method described in the following paragraphs.


In the control method shown in FIG. 2B, step S22 includes steps S23 and S24. In step S23, the electronic device 10 executes the control module 104 to receive a control operation for operating the transformed image information, wherein the control operation may be input by at least one of input devices such as a keyboard, a mouse, and a touch device. In step S24, the electronic device 10 may provide a corresponding control command to the electronic device 12 through the bridge device 11 according to control mapping information.


In an embodiment, the processor 101 may execute the control module 104 to pre-create the control mapping information so as to record the corresponding relationship between the control operation and the control command. In this way, when the electronic device 10 receives the control operation such as a long-press event, a fast double-click event, a drag event, a multi-finger touch event, a rotation manipulation event, and a mouse wheel event in step S23, the processor 101 may determine the control operation in step S23 and look up the control mapping information according to the control operation in step S23 to determine the corresponding control command, and provide the control command to the electronic device 12 through the bridge device 11.


Therefore, through the pre-created control mapping information, the user may determine the corresponding relationship between the control operation and the control command. In an embodiment, when the user uses the keyboard to generate the control operation on the electronic device 10, the control operation may be mapped to the control operation for a touch panel or other different input interfaces of the electronic device 12. In other words, by creating the control mapping information, the user may map the control operation to control signals generated by various input interfaces, thereby effectively improving the scalability and convenience of use of the electronic device 1 and the control method.


In an embodiment, the initial image information displayed by the electronic device 12 has a command receiving interface, and the processor 101 may execute the control module 104 to pre-establish the corresponding relationship between the control operation and the command receiving interface, and record the corresponding relationship in the control mapping information. In this way, when the electronic device 10 receives the control operation in step S23, the electronic device 10 may recognize the control operation and look up the control mapping information according to the type of the control operation to determine the command receiving interface corresponding to the control operation and accordingly provide the control signal that triggers the command receiving interface to the bridge device 11 to be transmitted to the electronic device 12.


For example, the command receiving interface may be a touch operation button in the initial image information. When the user directly operates the electronic device 12, the user may directly touch the displayed command receiving interface for control. When the initial image information is provided to the electronic device 10, the user may create the control mapping information on the electronic device 10 to bind the specific control operation to trigger the touch operation button, and store the corresponding relationship in the control mapping information. Therefore, the pre-created control mapping information may not only establish the relationship between the control operation and the control signal but also map the control operation to the command receiving interface in the initial image information so that the user may easily operate the electronic device 12 according to the control mapping information created by the existing input device on the electronic device 10.



FIG. 3A is a schematic diagram of an electronic system 3a according to an embodiment of the disclosure. The electronic system 3a shown in FIG. 3A is similar to the electronic system 1 shown in FIG. 1, except that the bridge device 11 in FIG. 1 is replaced by a bridge device 31a in FIG. 3A. Therefore, the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals, and for the descriptions thereof, please refer to the relevant paragraphs above, which will not be repeated hereinafter.


A data transmission module 110 and an audiovisual acquisition module 112 are stored in the bridge device 31a. In this embodiment, the bridge device 31a may be coupled to the image output port of the electronic device 12, and execute the data transmission module 110 to perform data transmission and execute the audiovisual acquisition module 112 to acquire the initial image information from the image output port. In this embodiment, since the bridge device 31a of the electronic system is not provided with a control operation module, the bridge device 31a cannot share the control signal provided by the electronic device 10 with the electronic device 12. However, by executing the data transmission module 110 and the audiovisual acquisition module 112, the bridge device 31a may still perform audiovisual data transmission.


Therefore, in the electronic system 3a, by plugging the bridge device 31a into the image output port of the electronic device 12 and executing the application App 1 on the electronic device 10, the user may acquire the image of the electronic device 12 and watch it on the electronic device 10 without changing the user setting of the electronic device 12, which effectively improves the convenience of use.

The electronic system 3b shown in FIG. 3B is similar to the electronic system 1 shown in FIG. 1, except that the bridge device 11 and the electronic device 12 in FIG. 1 are replaced by a bridge device 31b and an electronic device 32b in FIG. 3A. Therefore, the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals, and for the descriptions thereof, please refer to the relevant paragraphs above, which will not be repeated hereinafter.


In this embodiment, the electronic device 32b includes a display 320, a processor 321, and a memory 322, and the memory 322 stores an application App2. The application App2 may include a transmission module 323, a control module 324, and an audiovisual module 325. The display 320, the processor 321, and the memory 322 in the electronic device 32b may be similar to the display 100, the processor 101, and the memory 102 in the electronic device 10, respectively. The application App1 may be similar to or the same as the application App2. In other words, the application App2 is also stored in the electronic device 32b.


In this embodiment, the bridge device 3 lb stores a data transmission module 110 and a control sharing module 111. In this embodiment, the bridge device 3 lb may execute the data transmission module 110 to perform data transmission and execute the control sharing module to share the control signal provided by the electronic device 10 with the electronic device 32b.


For the electronic system 3b as a whole, since the application App2 is stored in the electronic device 32b, the transmission module 323, the control module 324, and the audiovisual module 325 may be executed through the processor 321. In this way, the electronic device 32b may execute the audiovisual module 325 and the transmission module 323 to acquire the initial image information and transmit it to the bridge device 3 lb. Therefore, the image output port may not be necessary for the electronic device 32b, and even if the bridge device 3 lb is not coupled to the image output port of the electronic device 32b, the electronic system 3b may still transmit the initial image information to the bridge device 3 lb by using the electronic device 32b execute the transmission module 323 and the audiovisual module 325. In addition, the bridge device 3 lb does not need to be provided with the audiovisual acquisition module. Therefore, the requirement for hardware of the electronic system 3b may be effectively lowered.

The electronic system 3c shown in FIG. 3C is similar to the electronic system 1 shown in FIG. 1 and the electronic system 3b shown in FIG. 3B. Therefore, the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals, and for the descriptions thereof, please refer to the relevant paragraphs above, which will not be repeated hereinafter.


In this embodiment, the electronic device 32b stores the application App2, and the electronic device 10 stores the application App 1. The electronic device 32b and the electronic device 10 are connected through the bridge device 11. In this way, the function of sharing the image and controlling between the electronic devices 10 and 32b may be a bidirectional operation. That is, by using the electronic device 32b to execute the transmission module 323 and the audiovisual module 325, the user may select to share the initial image information from the electronic device 32 to the electronic device 10. On the other hand, by using the electronic device 10 to execute the transmission module 103 and the audiovisual module 105, the user may also share the initial image information with the electronic device 32b.


It goes without saying that a person with ordinary knowledge in the field may combine the above-described embodiments according to different user and system requirements to carry out adaptive design and adjustment. For example, the operations of steps S23 and S24 in FIG. 2B may also include the operation of step S21 in FIG. 2A. Therefore, when the user uses the mouse to click on the screen of the display 100 according to the transformed image information, the user may use the keyboard at the same time to generate a control operation and map it to a control command. In other words, in addition to the coordinate transformation of mouse clicking, the electronic device 10 may also map the control operation input by the keyboard to a control command at the same time to effectively improve the convenience of use.

Furthermore, the menu area 41 may include a plurality of menus for the user to operate and select the source that provides the initial image information, the device that displays the image, the resolution of the displayed image, whether to map the control operation according to the control mapping information, whether to set or create the control mapping information, and so on. Take the menu 410 as an example, when the user clicks on the menu 410, the user may connect to the bridge device 11 by executing App1, and select the image source for display in the menu 410.


In summary, according to the electronic device, electronic system, and control method of the disclosure, the user may watch the initial image information provided by other electronic devices on the electronic device without changing the user setting of the electronic device.
