The following is a specific introduction to the content of the present invention. The usage scenario of "a user sets the smart mute of the mobile phone at night" is as follows:

1. An end user sleeps at about 11:00 every day, and occasionally someone contacts him before 12 o'clock in the evening, but he does not want to be disturbed after 12 o'clock. Therefore, he sets the timed intelligent detection from 12 o'clock every night to 7 o'clock in the morning of the next day. The detection interval is 20 minutes, and the pre-set processing mode is mute;

2. One day, he and his friend talked late on the phone. After 12 o'clock, the timing detection has started. It is detected that the mobile phone is in the call state, and the smart detection function does not start the pre-set processing mode. The next detection is performed after 20 minutes. ;

3, after a while, he finished the phone call, put the phone nearby, and turned off the lights;

4, 20 minutes is over, the smart detection is carried out again, the light sensor detects that the surroundings are dark, and the user should have rested;

5, ready to pre-set the processing mode (mute), the phone screen pop-up dialog box prompts the user, the user does not respond within the specified time

6. The current status and time of the mobile phone are recorded, and the user can check it if necessary.

7, restart the pre-set processing mode, set the phone to mute;

8, without the impact of spam messages, harassing calls, users can rest very well.

In addition, in the scene where a tourist goes abroad to use WIFI to watch a movie, the smart detection function can detect that the light of the room is lit, if the camera on the hand is not facing his face, or simultaneously detecting his face. When the eyes are closed, you know that he is already asleep. You can turn off the phone or data link according to the preset processing method.

The embodiment of the present invention can assist the user to manage the idle state of the mobile terminal without affecting the normal use of the mobile terminal by the user. Especially after the evening break, the mobile terminal can intelligently detect and perform shutdown, sleep, data link closure or muting. Under the premise of not increasing the hardware cost, the standby time of the mobile terminal is improved, the waste of the traffic is eliminated, the unnecessary interruption is avoided, and the intelligence of the mobile terminal is obviously improved.

The example of the implementation of the WIFI after watching the movie, the specific implementation process includes the following steps:

1. The visitor sets the time period of intelligent detection at night in advance, and the preset processing method is to close the data link;

2, visitors 4G data link is open by default, he hopes to hang on WeChat and chat with friends at all times, of course, watching movies use WIFI, because it is late, watching the movie fell asleep;

3. The time for intelligent detection is up, the light is still on, and the camera recognizes the shape of the face in front;

4, intelligent detection and further blink detection, found that the eyes are closed, so the phone pop-up dialog box asks the tourists to confirm that the tourists did not respond;

5. After recording the current state and time of the mobile phone, the data link of the mobile phone is closed according to the preset processing mode.

6. After the user is asleep, the WIFI signal may be broken due to poor network status.

7. Wake up the next morning, the tourists found that the mobile phone could not connect to WIFI, but it used the smart detection function to avoid the problem of using a large amount of data for the mobile phone to use the data connection.
