Abstract: Disclosed are a glass type terminal capable of supporting gestures using one finger or two fingers by providing a three-dimensional input device at a temple hinged to a rim of a lens, and an input method thereof. For three-dimensional touch inputs, the temple is configured to have an upper surface, a lower surface, an inner side surface and an outer side surface provided touch sensor, respectively. Upon sensing of a touch input applied onto said one or more surfaces of the temple using one finger or two fingers, a screen displayed on a lens is controlled in correspondence to the sensed touch input. Under such configuration, a user can control the screen in a more convenient manner.

Abstract: A keyboard for a handheld device comprises a plurality of side-keys and a main keyboard. The side-keys are configured at one side(s) and/or back of the device and used for changing layout of the main keyboard and operated by one hand holding the device. The main keyboard is used for inputting characters/commands and operated by another hand. Some or all of the side-keys can also be re-used as mouse buttons together with a touch screen of the device being re-used as a touch pad for a mouse. Some or all of the side-keys are operated by means of releasing a finger holding a side-key first and then using the finger to press down or touch the side-key to hold it again. This method operating a side-key can also be used for other key/buttons such as mouse buttons of a touch mouse, a touch-pad mouse, etc. The main keyboard can further comprise a physical keyboard and a mapping keyboard configured on a touch screen of the device to realize much more keys by means of simultaneously pressing down and releasing two or more keys of the physical keyboard. A current layout of the physical keyboard is mapped to the mapping keyboard.
