Method and device for actuating a key of a keyboard with a tracer finger of a robot

摘要

There is provided a method for actuating a first key of a keyboard with a tracer finger of a robot. An exemplary method comprises acquiring parameters of the keyboard and determining a position of the first key as a function of the acquired parameters using a model of the keyboard. The exemplary method also comprises guiding the tracer finger of the robot to the determined position of the first key. The exemplary method additionally comprises actuating the first key with the tracer finger of the robot.

1. A method for establishing positions of keys of a keyboard of a terminal device for actuating a first key of a keyboard of the terminal device with a tracer finger of a robot of a testing apparatus, the method comprising:
detecting a keyboard to be tested via the testing apparatus; selecting a model by a computation module of the testing apparatus from a plurality of models as a function of a type of the detected keyboard, whereby the selected model is one of the plurality of models, whereby the plurality of models are each associated with an arrangement of the keys in rows and columns having a same distance between keys of one row and keys of one column; acquiring parameters of the detected keyboard via an interface of the testing apparatus, whereby a first acquired parameter is a distance between two predefined keys of a row of the detected keyboard, and a second acquired parameter is a distance between two predefined keys of a column of the detected keyboard, determining, by the computation module, a position of the first key to be actuated as a function of the first acquired parameter or the second acquired parameter using the selected model of the keyboard; guiding, by a control module, the tracer finger of the robot to the determined position of the first key; and actuating, by the control module, the first key with the tracer finger of the robot.
