For the purpose of making objectives, technical schemes and advantages of the present application more clear, clear and complete description will be made to the technical schemes of the present application in conjunction with specific embodiments and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely a part of the embodiments of the present application and not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those ordinarily skilled in the art without paying creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.
In the process of implementing the present invention, the inventor has found that in an existing lock screen application of the virtual reality device, a digital password unlocking mode is mainly adopted, a fixed password is set by the system operation, and each time unlocking is performed, the correct fixed password is input for unlocking. However, the digital password is too single and easy to crack, and the password security is low.
In order to overcome the defects in the prior art, the present invention provides an unlocking method and a virtual reality device. The core of the present invention is that a password icon related to latest operations is set, so that the password icon is updated in real time with the use of a virtual reality device, a password is not easily cracked, and the security is higher. The implementation modes of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, and the implementation process of taking the technical means in the present invention to solve the technical problems and achieve the technical effects can be fully understood and implemented.
Step 10: Displaying A candidate icons, the A candidate icons including M password icons related to latest operations;
Step 11: Acquiring, in response to an operation of selecting an unlocking icon from the A candidate icons, a selected unlocking icon; and
Step 12: Performing an unlocking operation according to the selected unlocking icon and the M password icons related to the latest operations.
The A candidate icons displayed in this embodiment may be, for example, one or a combination of a photo, a picture, or an application icon, and the password icon may be, for example, an application icon installed in a virtual reality device, a photo stored in the virtual reality device, or a picture that has been called or accessed through the virtual reality device.
The value of M in the M password icons related to the latest operations described in this embodiment may be fixed, or may be flexibly set according to the degree of memory after each screen-off or before unlocking. For example, latest operations may be memorized as many as possible before the screen-off to set the value of M as large as possible, to obtain a higher level of security.
The M password icons related to the latest operations in step 10 may be determined according to an operation order performed by the virtual reality device. For example, a task list of a system may be acquired, and a corresponding operation order is determined according to the execution time of tasks in the task list to determine M latest operation, to generate the M password icons related to the latest operations.
The number of the unlocking icons described in step 11 may be a fixed value, or may be flexibly set as needed after each screen-off or before unlocking. Optionally, step 11 may be implemented in the following implementation mode:
Monitoring, for any one candidate icon in the A candidate icons, retention time of a cursor on the candidate icon; and
Determining, if the retention time is greater than a preset time threshold, the candidate icon as the selected unlocking icon.
It should be noted that in this embodiment, the cursor may be a focus point of the head and eyes or a control point of a handle, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.
Optionally, in order to avoid the situation that the number of selected unlocking icons is forgotten, the step of prompting whether to obtain a corresponding number of unlocking icons may also be performed in this embodiment. For example, before the corresponding number of unlocking icon is obtained, a prompt “Please continue to select an unlocking icon” may be given. Or, an unlocking icon display area may be set in the scene of the virtual reality device, the unlocking icon display area is divided into a corresponding number of a display position, and it is prompted whether the selection of an unlocking icon is completed by displaying whether the corresponding number of display position is filled. Or, before obtaining the corresponding number of unlocking icon, no prompt is given, and a prompt of stopping the selection operation is given until the corresponding number of unlocking icon is obtained.
In step 12, judging whether verification is passed according to the selected unlocking icon and the M password icons related to the latest operations, if so, the unlocking operation is performed, and if not, the scene of displaying the A candidate icons in step 10 may be returned to re-select an unlocking icon.
In this embodiment, a password icon related to latest operations of a user is set, so that the password icon is updated in real time with the use of a virtual reality device, a password is not easily cracked, and the user does not need to repeatedly and manually set the password. Therefore, in a lock screen application, the unlocking method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is higher in security.
In addition, this embodiment adopts a form of taking an icon as a password, and the user does not need to memorize an irregular digital password, and only needs to intuitively operate the password icon according to own device usage memory, so that unlocking can be achieved, thereby liberating the user's mind and providing the user with a brand new unlocking experience.
In the foregoing embodiment, the unlocking operation is performed according to the selected unlocking icon and the M password icons related to the latest operations. That is, there may be many implementation modes of step 12. Several modes will be listed below, but are not limited thereto.
As shown in
Step 1121: Judging whether the selected unlocking icon includes at least one of the M password icons related to the latest operations and a predetermined number of fixed icon; and
Step 1122: If a judgment result is yes, performing the unlocking operation.
In the implementation mode shown in
For example, it is assumed that the value of M is 5 and the number of fixed icon is 2. If the unlocking icon obtained in step 11 includes 7 icons, 5 icons therein are password icons related to the latest operations, and 2 icons are preset fixed icons, so the verification is passed, and the unlocking operation may be performed.
For another example, it is assumed that the value of M is 5 and the number of fixed icon is 2. If the unlocking icon obtained in step 11 includes 5 icons, 3 icons therein are password icons related to the latest operations, and 2 icons are preset fixed icons, so the verification is passed, and the unlocking operation may be performed.
In this embodiment, the fixed icon is used as a hidden password for the verification of step 12, which effectively avoids a risk that other users except the legal user can unlock the virtual reality device without boundaries according to memory after having used the virtual reality device during the independent verification of the password icon. The fixed icon may be a preset number of fixed icons, e.g., several fixed application icons such as a weather icon and a time icon, or a few pictures that are preferred. Of course, when one or more of the M password icons related to the latest operations coincides with the fixed icon, the coincident icon may be displayed as two to avoid the conflict of the fixed icon with the password icon.
In an alternative embodiment, the step of judging whether the selected unlocking icon includes at least one of the M password icons related to the latest operations and the predetermined number of fixed icon includes:
Acquiring a password icon related to the last operation from the M password icons related to the latest operations;
Judging whether the selected unlocking icon includes the password icon related to the last operation and the predetermined number of fixed icon; and
if so, performing the unlocking operation, and if not, returning to the scene of displaying the A candidate icons in step 10 to re-select an unlocking icon.
In the embodiment of the present invention, according to the order of latest operations, a password icon related to the last operation is determined. When the selected unlocking icon includes the password icon related to the last operation and the predetermined number of fixed icon, the verification is passed, and the unlocking operation is performed.
According to the above example, it is assumed that the value of M is 5, the number of fixed icons is 2 and a video application is the last used application, if the unlocking icon obtained in step 11 includes 3 icons, wherein 1 icon is the video application icon, and 2 icons are preset fixed icons. The predetermined number of the fixed icons is 2, and the video application is the last used application, so verification is passed, and the unlocking operation is performed.
The unlocking is verified by the password icon related to the last operation and the predetermined number of fixed icon, which well avoids the difficulty of unlocking due to the inability to remember multiple latest operations.
In an alternative embodiment, on the basis of the unlocking mode as shown in
In the first step, at least one unlocking mode is displayed, the at least one unlocking mode including a combination unlocking mode of the password icon and the fixed icon;
In the second step, in response to an operation of selecting an unlocking mode from the at least one unlocking mode, the selected first unlocking mode is acquired;
In the third step, if the first unlocking mode is the combination unlocking mode of the password icon and the fixed icon, the M password icons related to the latest operations, the predetermined number of fixed icon and other icons are generated; and
In the fourth step, the M password icons related to the latest operations, the predetermined number of fixed icon and other icons are randomly arranged, to form the A candidate icons.
It should be noted that the method of generating the A candidate icons in this alternative embodiment may be applied to each foregoing embodiment related to the unlocking mode shown in
The method of generating the A candidate icons in the embodiment of the present invention may be performed during screen-off or before unlocking. When the first unlocking mode selected by the user is the combination unlocking mode of the password icon and the fixed icon, M password icons are generated according to the order of the latest operations, a predetermined number of fixed icon is generated, and other icons are randomly generated, to form the A candidate icons.
As shown in
Step 2121: Judging whether the selected unlocking icon is the same as the M password icons related to the latest operations; and
Step 2122: If a judgment result is yes, the unlocking operation is performed.
In this embodiment, the M password icons related to the latest operations are used as the unlocking verification condition. If the selected unlocking icon acquired in step 11 is in one-to-one correspondence with the M password icons related to the latest operations, the verification is passed, and the unlocking operation is performed. If the selected unlocking icon acquired in step 11 does not have a one-to-one correspondence with the M password icons related to the latest operations, the verification is not passed, and the scene of displaying the A candidate icons in step 10 may be returned.
In this embodiment, unlocking can be implemented only when the unlocking icon and the password icon are identical, thereby improving the password security.
In an alternative embodiment, on the basis of the unlocking mode as shown in
In the first step, at least one unlocking mode is displayed, the at least one unlocking mode including a password icon unlocking mode;
In the second step, in response to an operation of selecting an unlocking mode from the at least one unlocking mode, the selected second unlocking mode is acquired;
In the third step, if the second unlocking mode is the password icon unlocking mode, the M password icons related to the latest operations and other icons are generated; and
In the fourth step, the M password icons related to the latest operations and other icons are randomly arranged, to form A candidate icons.
The method of generating the A candidate icons in this embodiment may be performed during screen-off or before unlocking. When the selected second unlocking mode is the password icon unlocking mode, M password icons are generated according to the order of the latest operations, and other icons are randomly generated, to form the A candidate icons.
For each embodiment described above, optionally, before the unlocking operation is performed, the method further includes:
It is judged whether the order of selecting the unlocking icon matches the order of the latest operations, and if so, the unlocking operation is performed.
The order of selecting, by the user, the unlocking icon may be recorded according to step 11, and the order of the latest operations of the user may be acquired according to the task list of the system. In each foregoing embodiment, before the unlocking operation is performed, it is further judged whether the order of selecting, by the user, the unlocking icon matches the order of the latest operations of the user, and the password complexity and security may be further improved. Of course, the step of judgment in the embodiment of the present invention may also be performed before the step of verification of various implementation modes of step 12 described above, which is not limited thereto.
The following is a detailed description of the technical scheme by taking the combination unlocking mode of the password icon and the fixed icon as an example.
When a user wakes up a virtual reality device, a password icon unlocking mode and a combination unlocking mode of the password icon and the fixed icon are displayed in a scene created by the virtual reality device. When the user selects the combination unlocking mode of the password icon and the fixed icon, the user is further prompted to set the number of password icon to be included in the unlocking icon; the number of password icon to be included in the unlocking icon set by the user is 2; after that, according to the presetting of the user, 3 application icons corresponding to a sniper game application, a home decoration application and a road rash game application lately operated by the user are taken as 3 password icons, application icons corresponding to a weather application and a clock application are taken as 2 fixed icons, and 4 other icons are randomly generated, thus forming 9 candidate icons. The 9 candidate icons are displayed in the scene of the virtual reality device for user selection.
After it is monitored that the user selects 5 icons by controlling a cursor through eyeball rotation, the user is prompted that the selection is completed. The 5 unlocking icons selected by the user are the sniper game application icon, the home decoration application icon, the weather application icon, the clock application icon, and the calendar application icon. The number of password icons to be included in the unlocking icon set by the user is 2, so that the unlocking icon selected by the user accords with the verification condition, the verification is passed, and the unlocking operation is performed.
In another unlocking process, the 5 unlocking icons selected by the user are the sniper game application icon, the road rash game application icon, the home decoration application icon, the clock application icon, and the calendar application icon. The user does not correctly select the 2 fixed icons, so that the verification is not passed, the scene of displaying the 9 candidate icons is returned.
In another unlocking process, if the user performs the unlocking operation three times and still does not unlock correctly, the user is prohibited from unlocking. For example, after 10 minutes, 9 candidate icons may be displayed again in the scene of the virtual reality device for the user to perform the unlocking operation.
