摘要:
A method for retrieving object information is applied to a portable electronic device and includes the following steps. A global position system (GPS) module receives a position signal to get GPS data. A magnetic sensing module senses magnetic field to get azimuth direction data. A touch input module inputs an event which is a movement moving from a touch position towards an object to get input direction data. A processing module gets angle difference data according to the azimuth direction information and the input direction information. The information of the corresponding object from a database according to the parameters of the GPS data is retrieved, and the parameters of the GPS data, the azimuth direction data and the angle difference data are used by the processing module.
