Millet is playing fiercely with the Meizu in the mobile phone field. However, in the field of smart TVs, it continues to die out. Not long ago, the two companies also used smart TV products to fight spasms. It is puzzling that they are pursuing the pursuit. The ultimate experience of LeTV and Xiaomi, but ignores the smartest place in the smart TV, is the text input.

Smart TVs are not just for viewing. Interactivity will become more and more critical.

The biggest distinguishing feature of smart TVs from traditional TVs is the access to the network. This is what makes television watching a reality. It is no longer simply a passive reception. Users expressing their own perceptions through television have also become a possibility and most realistic. The scene is that after I finished watching a movie and wanted to make a comment on the movie, you would find it difficult to enter text on TV.

In the near future, watching live broadcasts of various programs via smart TVs will inevitably become a trend. The forms of bullets in mobile phones and PCs will inevitably also migrate to smart TVs. At this time, the input of texts has become extremely important. .
In addition, there is a smart TV game that will usher in a blowout. The fluency and convenience of text communication is an important part of the game experience. You must know that in many cases, speech is not a substitute for text.

From this point of view, the input of text is indeed a very important user experience link in smart TVs, and now the text input of smart TVs basically remains in the most primitive stage of the selection of letters through the remote control direction keys, moving the cursor, the operating frequency High, text input is extremely slow and the process is extremely afflicting.

There is a solution but it is not satisfactory

For the problem of difficult text input, the market has long been a pioneer in the introduction of the corresponding product, the basic point of view is transformed from the computer keyboard, there are wired, but also wireless, and some directly take the computer keyboard, when the smart TV keyboard To sell, the text input experience was not tried and commented, but when I thought of my living room coffee table, I had to put a keyboard while placing a TV remote control. This feeling was very unpleasant, let alone to actually use it. .

In addition, there are also ways to enter texts via mobile phones through the help of assistant software. I have tried many of these softwares. First of all, for the input process, it is not smooth, and the function of copy and paste cannot be realized. The whole process will only let you An idea was created to abandon typing, there was still a lot of software, and more emphasis was placed on the basic operating experience. The product was positioned as a replacement for the remote control, and there was no text entry function at all.

Provides three solutions for reference by smart TV manufacturers and welcomes comments

Option One: Digital 9-key input on remote control

Regardless of technology or difficulty in implementation, I think this is the most realistic and easiest to implement. When entering the text input state, you can enter text by using the number 9 key on the remote control, which can achieve the closest to the text of the mobile phone. The input experience, I believe, will be greatly improved in the input speed.

The disadvantage is that it is not cool enough. It seems to return to the era of mobile phone features. In addition, most of the smart TV's standard remote control has canceled the digital 9-key. If you want to achieve this function, you have to add it again. The meaning of the trend.

Option two: Add a handwriting input board to the remote control

Slightly higher than the program in terms of technology and difficulty of implementation, but in fact there is no difficulty, with this, when the user needs to enter text, just pick up the remote control handwriting just fine, the input speed is equal to the hand speed.
The disadvantage is that it is still not cool enough, and in order to facilitate handwriting, it may be necessary to increase the volume of the remote control. This is in contrast to the current development of the remote control, which is increasingly compact, and the user may also be confronted with the possibility of reading and not writing. Mirrors, of course, can be solved by supporting handwritten pinyin and other methods.

Option 3: Air Stylus

Using gyro and laser positioning technology to achieve the handwriting function in the air, (of course, you can also use other technologies to achieve, I'm not particularly professional about the technology), the remote can be made into a pen type, it's cool right, enter The speed is also equal to the hand speed. As for the user experience, it depends on the user's optimization of the product.

The disadvantage is that currently there are no similar products in the market, and there is no way for users to recognize it, and everything has to start from scratch. There is no object that can be used for reference.

However, this is an opportunity for originality. Personally speaking, I am most optimistic about every three options.

Conclusion: Letv and Xiaomi wake up now. Enter the text in the smart TV. If you still handle it so easily, you will soon be overtaken by your opponent. (I'm not really picking things up (~â–½~)) .
