Detailed Description
Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the exemplary embodiments below are not intended to represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.
Taking the alarm clock function of the mobile phone as an example, the user often subconsciously turns off the alarm clock due to the sleeping state, which causes the problems of not getting up, late arriving at work and the like, and the related technology forces the user to get up by increasing the difficulty and the process of turning off the alarm clock by the user: when the alarm clock rings at the preset time, the user actively turns off the alarm clock on the mobile phone; for example, when the alarm clock rings, the user can turn off the alarm clock by operating a power key of the mobile phone, a turn-off button of the interface of the mobile phone, or completing a question or answering a question on the mobile phone.
However, in the related art, when the user wants to turn off the alarm clock, the user only needs to directly operate the mobile phone to turn off the alarm clock, and the user does not really get up, so that the purpose of forcing the user to get up cannot be achieved, the user cannot be effectively helped to get up, and therefore popularization and use of the alarm clock can be affected, and user experience is poor.
In order to solve the above problem, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an alarm clock control method, including: when the alarm clock rings, starting the double cameras of the terminal; calling the double cameras to measure the distance between the terminal and a target object specified by a user in advance; and when the measured distance is monitored to be larger than the preset distance threshold value, the alarm clock is turned off. The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can be applied to a scene that the alarm clock function of the terminal needs to be used to help the user get up. The technical scheme relates to a terminal, wherein the terminal is an electronic device with double cameras and alarm clock functions, such as a smart phone and wearable equipment.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating an alarm clock control method according to an exemplary embodiment, where an execution subject of the method may be a terminal, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps 101 and 103:
in step 101, when the alarm clock rings, the dual cameras of the terminal are started.
For example, when the alarm clock rings, the camera of the terminal is automatically turned on and the double cameras of the terminal are started.
For example, the user needs to perform alarm setting in advance: the method comprises the steps that a user sets the closing mode of an alarm clock to a mode of closing the alarm clock based on double-camera ranging in advance on an alarm clock setting interface of a terminal, and the user needs to provide a picture/image of a target object selected by the user; the target object is used as a reference object when the double cameras are called to measure the distance. The user can use the picture of the target object already stored in the terminal, and can also call the camera to take the picture of the target object.
In step 102, the distance between the terminal and a target object specified by the user in advance is measured by calling the double cameras.
For example, when the alarm clock rings, the user needs to hold the terminal to move far enough away from a pre-specified target object and align the two cameras of the terminal with the target object. The terminal measures the distance between the terminal and the target object by calling the double cameras.
The alarm clock ringing method comprises the steps that the user does not get up before the alarm clock rings, the terminal is placed at the place where the user can directly take the alarm clock without stretching the hand, the linear distance between the terminal and the target object is smaller than a preset distance threshold value, and therefore the alarm clock can be closed only when the user moves the handheld terminal to the place where the distance from the target object is larger than the preset distance threshold value when the alarm clock rings, and therefore the user can be effectively helped to get up.
In step 103, when it is monitored that the measured distance is greater than the preset distance threshold, the alarm clock is turned off.
In the process of alarm clock ringing, the terminal continuously calls the double cameras to measure the distance between the terminal and a target object, and monitors whether the measured distance is greater than a preset distance threshold value; when the measured distance is monitored to be larger than a preset distance threshold value, an alarm clock is turned off, and the double cameras of the terminal are turned off at the same time; illustratively, the alarm clock starts timing when it rings; when the measured distance is monitored not to exceed the preset distance threshold, the alarm clock is continuously rung until the timing duration reaches the preset ringing duration, and therefore the trouble of a user and the excessive consumption of the battery power caused by the fact that the alarm clock rings all the time can be avoided.
For example, the preset distance threshold should be at least greater than a linear distance between the body or both hands of the user and the target object when the user is not getting up, for example, 3 meters, and the preset distance threshold may use a default value of the terminal, or may be adjusted by the user on an alarm clock setting interface of the terminal according to actual needs.
According to the technical scheme, when the alarm clock rings, a user needs to hold the terminal to move to a place far enough from a pre-specified target object and align the double cameras of the terminal with the target object, the distance between the terminal and the target object is measured by calling the double cameras of the terminal, and the alarm clock can be turned off only when the distance between the terminal and the target object is monitored to be larger than a preset distance threshold value, so that the alarm clock can be turned off when the user needs to get up and the hand-held terminal moves to the place far enough from the target object when the alarm clock rings, the difficulty and the cost of turning off the alarm clock by the user are increased, the purpose of effectively waking up the user is achieved, and the problem that the user cannot get up due to the fact that the user can turn off the alarm clock only by directly operating a mobile phone in the related technology and cannot force the user to get up is solved; therefore, the use effect of the alarm clock can be guaranteed, and the user experience is improved.
In one possible implementation, as shown in fig. 2, the step 101 shown in fig. 1 may be implemented to include steps 201 and 204:
in step 201, when the alarm clock rings, a camera of the terminal is turned on, and a first camera is started.
Illustratively, the dual cameras of the terminal include a first camera and a second camera. In step 201, when the alarm clock rings, the terminal automatically turns on a camera of the terminal and starts a first camera of the two cameras.
In step 202, a first camera is called to capture an image of an object to be measured.
In an example, a user holds a terminal by hand and aims at an object to be detected through a camera of the terminal, and calls a first camera to acquire an image of the object to be detected.
In step 203, it is determined whether the object to be detected is the target object according to the image of the object to be detected and the second feature information of the target object acquired in advance.
For example, the manner of acquiring the second characteristic information of the target object by the terminal may include: and the terminal analyzes the picture of the target object, extracts and stores second characteristic information of the target object.
For example, the second characteristic information of the target object, which is actually characteristic information of the photo/image of the target object, may include: visual features such as edges, contours, shapes, and regions of the image of the target object, etc.; statistical features of the image, such as histograms, etc.; transform coefficient characterization: such as fourier delineation operators, autoregressive model coefficients, etc.; algebraic characteristics: such as the singular value decomposition of the image matrix, etc.
In an example, the terminal judges whether the object to be detected is the target object according to the image of the object to be detected and the second characteristic information of the target object; if the object to be detected is determined to be the target object, go to step 204; if the object to be measured is not determined to be the target object, go to step 202.
In step 204, when the object to be measured is determined to be the target object, the second camera is started.
In an example, when the terminal determines that the object to be detected is the target object according to the image of the object to be detected and the second characteristic information of the target object, the terminal starts a second camera of the terminal.
Above-mentioned in this disclosed embodiment not directly start the two cameras at terminal when alarm clock jingle bell but at first start first camera, gather the image of the object to be measured and discern whether the object to be measured is the target object through calling first camera, only just start when judging that the object to be measured is the target object the second camera has realized just starting the two cameras at terminal when the user aims at the target object with the two cameras at terminal, avoids frequently starting the system processing resource waste that two cameras caused, saves battery power.
In one possible implementation, step 203 shown in fig. 2 may be implemented as: after the terminal acquires the image of the object to be detected by calling the first camera, analyzing the image of the object to be detected to obtain first characteristic information of the object to be detected; judging whether the first characteristic information of the object to be detected is matched with the second characteristic information of the target object: if the first characteristic information is judged to be matched with the second characteristic information of the target object, determining that the object to be detected is the target object; and if the first characteristic information is judged not to be matched with the second characteristic information of the target object, determining that the object to be detected is not the target object.
For example, the first feature information of the object to be measured, which is actually the feature information of the image of the object to be measured, may include: visual features such as edges, contours, shapes, and regions of an image of the object to be measured; statistical features of the image, such as histograms, etc.; transform coefficient characterization: such as fourier delineation operators, autoregressive model coefficients, etc.; algebraic characteristics: such as the singular value decomposition of the image matrix, etc.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the terminal obtains the second characteristic information of the target object in advance, obtains the first characteristic information of the object to be detected by analyzing the image of the object to be detected, and determines that the object to be detected is the target object when the first characteristic information is judged to be matched with the second characteristic information, so that the purpose of identifying the target object by using the first camera is achieved.
The implementation is described in detail below by way of several embodiments.
FIG. 3 is a flow chart illustrating a method of alarm clock control, which is implemented by a terminal, according to an exemplary embodiment; as shown in fig. 3, the method comprises the steps of:
in step 301, when the terminal alarm clock rings, the camera of the terminal is turned on, the first camera is started, and timing is started.
For example, the user needs to perform alarm setting in advance: the user sets the closing mode of the alarm clock to the mode of closing the alarm clock based on the double-camera ranging in advance on the alarm clock setting interface of the terminal, and the user needs to provide the photo/image of the target object selected by the user at the same time. The double cameras of the terminal comprise a first camera and a second camera.
In step 302, the terminal invokes the first camera to acquire an image of an object to be measured.
A user holds the terminal in a hand and aims at an object to be detected through a camera of the terminal, and a first camera is called to collect an image of the object to be detected.
In step 303, the terminal analyzes the image of the object to be detected to obtain first characteristic information of the object to be detected.
In step 304, the terminal determines whether the first characteristic information of the object to be detected matches with the second characteristic information of the target object acquired in advance; if the first characteristic information is determined to match the second characteristic information, go to step 305; if the first characteristic information and the second characteristic information are not matched, go to step 302.
In step 305, the terminal determines that the object to be measured is a target object and starts a second camera.
In an example, when the terminal determines that the first characteristic information of the object to be detected is matched with the second characteristic information of the target object, the object to be detected is determined to be the target object, and the second camera of the terminal is started.
In step 306, the terminal invokes the dual cameras to measure the distance between the terminal and a target object pre-designated by the user.
For example, when the alarm clock rings, the user needs to hold the terminal to move far enough away from a pre-specified target object and align the two cameras of the terminal with the target object. The terminal measures the distance between the terminal and the target object by calling the double cameras.
The alarm clock ringing method comprises the steps that the user does not get up before the alarm clock rings, the terminal is placed at the place where the user can directly take the alarm clock without stretching the hand, the linear distance between the terminal and the target object is smaller than a preset distance threshold value, and therefore the alarm clock can be closed only when the user moves the handheld terminal to the place where the distance from the target object is larger than the preset distance threshold value when the alarm clock rings, and therefore the user can be effectively helped to get up.
In step 307, the terminal turns off an alarm clock when the measured distance is greater than a preset distance threshold.
For example, when the measured distance does not exceed the preset distance threshold, the terminal continues to ring until the timing duration reaches the preset ring duration.
For example, the preset distance threshold should be at least greater than a linear distance between the body or both hands of the user and the target object when the user is not getting up, for example, 3 meters, and the preset distance threshold may use a default value of the terminal, or may be adjusted by the user on an alarm clock setting interface of the terminal according to actual needs.
According to the technical scheme, when the alarm clock rings, a user needs to hold the terminal to move to a place far enough from a pre-specified target object and align the double cameras of the terminal with the target object, the distance between the terminal and the target object is measured by calling the double cameras of the terminal, and the alarm clock can be turned off only when the distance between the terminal and the target object is monitored to be larger than a preset distance threshold value, so that the alarm clock can be turned off when the user needs to get up and the hand-held terminal moves to the place far enough from the target object when the alarm clock rings, the difficulty and the cost of turning off the alarm clock by the user are increased, the purpose of effectively waking up the user is achieved, and the problem that the user cannot get up due to the fact that the user can turn off the alarm clock only by directly operating a mobile phone in the related technology and cannot force the user to get up is solved; therefore, the use effect of the alarm clock can be guaranteed, and the user experience is improved.
As a possible embodiment, taking a mobile phone as an example, a scheme for turning off an alarm clock by using the distance measurement of two cameras of the mobile phone is provided, and the scheme provides a mode for turning off the alarm clock of the mobile phone by using the principle of the distance measurement of two cameras of the mobile phone, that is, the alarm clock can be automatically turned off only when the distance between the two cameras of the mobile phone and a photographed object is far enough, for example, the alarm clock can be turned off only when the distance between the mobile phone and the photographed object reaches 3 meters or more than 3 meters. When the alarm clock rings, the user holds the mobile phone, the camera faces to the front object, and the alarm clock can be turned off when the distance between the camera and the front object is 3 meters. Therefore, the user gets up, the alarm clock closing cost is increased, and the purpose of effectively waking up the user is achieved. The scheme comprises the following steps:
1) preparing in advance: firstly, the user needs to select an object as a target object to be identified when the alarm clock is turned off. The user selects the closing mode of the alarm clock as the mode of closing the alarm clock based on the double-camera ranging in advance on the alarm clock setting interface of the terminal, and the user needs to provide the picture of the target object selected by the user at the same time.
2) Starting the two cameras: when the alarm clock rings, the mobile phone starts the double cameras, a view finding window of the camera appears on a user interface of the mobile phone, and a user cannot directly turn off the alarm clock by operating the mobile phone.
3) Distance judgment: a user needs to hold the mobile phone by hand to aim the camera at a target object; after the mobile phone identifies the target object, the distance between the user and the target object is judged, and when the distance is larger than a set distance threshold value, the terminal can automatically turn off the alarm clock. The set distance threshold is longer than the distance that the user can reach with reaching, for example 3 meters, but allows free adjustment.
For example, the identification process for the target object is described in detail as follows: when the alarm clock is set, a user needs to select a target object, can select an existing photo or can shoot a photo through a camera, and after the target object is determined, the system can extract key characteristic information of the photo of the target object to be used as a reference for identifying the target object later. When the alarm clock rings, the system can open the camera, the user aims at the target object through the camera, the system judges whether the characteristic information of the target object at the moment is the target object set before, and if the characteristic information is the target object set before, the double-camera ranging is started.
By way of example, the principle of using dual-camera ranging is illustrated as follows: referring to fig. 4, the following formula can be obtained according to the principle of similar triangles: Z/T ═ Z-f/[ T- (x)l-xr)]Wherein Z is the physical distance of the connecting line between the point to be measured and the two cameras, and xlAnd xrRespectively, the coordinate of the point to be measured in the image is far from the central point, and the parallax d is xl-xrD units are pixel points; t is the physical distance of the two cameras, and the unit of T is millimeter level or 0.1 millimeter level; f is the focal length of the camera, the unit of f is a pixel point, and the focal lengths of the two cameras are assumed to be the same, so that the value of Z can be obtained according to the formula. The distance value between the mobile phone and the target object does not need an absolute accurate value, and the error is within an acceptable range.
For example, the process of using dual cameras to identify objects and measure distances to turn off an alarm clock is described as follows: the terminal identifies a target object through a camera, and then measures the distance between the terminal and the target object through two cameras; and when the measured distance is judged to be larger than the set distance threshold value, the terminal automatically turns off the alarm clock, otherwise, the alarm clock rings all the time until the duration time reaches the specified ring time length, and then the alarm clock is turned off, for example, ten minutes.
The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the disclosure realizes the identification and distance measurement of the target object by using the double cameras, and provides a new interactive mode for turning off the alarm clock; because the two cameras are used for identifying objects and measuring the distance, a user needs to get up to hold the mobile phone to move and shoot, and the alarm clock cannot be directly turned off simply by operating the mobile phone, so that the user can be effectively helped to get up.
The following are embodiments of the disclosed apparatus that may be used to perform embodiments of the disclosed methods.
