DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATED EMBODIMENTS

The technical solutions of embodiments of the present disclosure will be described clearly and completely in the following in combination with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely a part of embodiments of the present disclosure, but not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts based on the embodiments of the present disclosure shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 1, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, a shoe 10 is provided, which includes a vamp 11 and a sole 12. The vamp 11 is coupled to the sole 12, and an opening 101 is formed between the vamp 11 and the sole 12 for wearing the shoe 10 for wearing the shoe 10 to a foot of a wearer. The shoe 10 further includes a touch interaction device 13. The touch interaction device 13 includes a support body 131, a light-emitting unit 133, a flexible touch sensor 135, and a control module 137. The support body 131 is attached to the vamp 11. The light-emitting unit 133 is arranged on the support body 131. The flexible touch sensor 135 is attached to the support body 131 and covers the light-emitting unit 133. The control module 137 is electrically coupled to the light-emitting unit 133 and the flexible touch sensor 135.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the touch interaction device 13 is able to works in different working modes, such as a game mode, a cool mode, and so on. The flexible touch sensor 135 is configured to detect a touch operation to the light-emitting unit 133. The control module 137 is configured to control, according to the touch operation detected by the flexible touch sensor 135 and a current working mode of the touch interaction device 13, the light-emitting unit to change its working states.

In one embodiment, when the touch interaction device 13 works in a game mode, the control module 137 controls the light-emitting unit 133 to emit light before a touch operation is detected by the flexible touch sensor 135. The amount of the light emitting unit 133 is plural. The control module 137 controls a plurality of the light-emitting units 133 to emit light according to a preset manner. The flexible touch sensor 135 detects a touch operation to the plurality of light-emitting units 133 during a preset time period in which at least one of the light-emitting units 133 is emitting light, and the control module 137 counts up when the touch operation to the light-emitting units 133 is detected. In the embodiment of the disclosure, the light-emitting units 133 are light emitting diodes (LEDs), and the flexible touch sensor 135 is a transparent flexible touch device. It can be understood that, the control module 137 can also control the light-emitting units 133 to emit light after the touch operation is detected by the flexible touch sensor 135.

It can be understood that, the preset manner may be to control the plurality of light-emitting units 133 to randomly emit light, that is, one or more of the light-emitting units 133 is controlled to emit light for a preset time period, and then the one or more of the light-emitting units 133 is automatically turned off, and another one or more of the light-emitting units 133 is randomly controlled to emit light, and repeats the above process. When one of the light-emitting units 133 is turned off after emitting light for the preset time period, the one of the light-emitting units 133 may be controlled to emit light again. The flexible touch sensor 135 covers each of the light-emitting units 133, and can receive and distinguish touch operations to different light-emitting units 133. In this way, while the plurality of light-emitting units 133 are controlled to emit light in the preset manner, the flexible touch sensor 135 may detect the touch operation to each light-emitting unit 133, and determine whether the touch operation is to the light-emitting unit 133 that is currently emitting light, thereby realizing an accumulative counting game similar to the hamster. For example, if a touch operation to a certain light-emitting unit 133 is detected by the flexible touch sensor 135 while the certain light-emitting unit 133 is emitting light, the control module 137 counts up. If a touch operation to a light-emitting unit 133 that isn't currently emitting light is detected by the flexible touch sensor 135, the control module 137 won't count up.

It can be understood that, in one embodiment, the touch interaction device 13 may further include an audio module 136 electrically coupled to the control module 137. When the touch operation to at least one of the light-emitting units 133 that is currently emitting light is detected by the flexible touch sensor 135, the control module 137 is further configured to control the at least one of the light-emitting units 133 to change illuminating colors, and control the audio module 136 to play a prompt tone. For example, if a touch operation to a certain light-emitting unit 133 is detected by the flexible touch sensor 135 while the certain light-emitting unit 133 is emitting light, the control module 137 counts up, and controls the audio module 136 to play a first prompt tone. If a touch operation to a light-emitting unit 133 that isn't currently emitting light is detected by the flexible touch sensor 135, the control module 137 controls the audio module 136 to play a second prompt tone.

When the touch interaction device 13 works in a cool mode, touch operations to different light-emitting units 133 may be received by the flexible touch sensor 135, and the control module 137 may control, according to different positions at which the touch operations are received, at least one of the light-emitting units 133 at the corresponding position to emit light. In addition, the control module 137 may also control, according to different touch operations, the at least one of the light-emitting units 133 at the corresponding position to change their illuminating states. For example, in response to a long-press on a certain area of the flexible touch sensor 135, the control module 137 may control the light-emitting units 133 on the corresponding area to change illuminating colors. In response to a double-click on a certain area of the flexible touch sensor 135, the control module 137 may control the light-emitting units 133 on the corresponding area to maintain a blinking state, etc.
