It is also desirable to improve the security of the user in obtaining the password.
Disclosure of Invention
The application provides a novel wireless access point connection mode, and the password of the wireless access point can be acquired in an AR mode.
According to various aspects of the invention, a user device scans surrounding access points and sends a received identifier of an access point to a server for querying. The server determines whether at least one of the access points identified in the received query message has a corresponding entry in its memory. And if so, the server returns the position information and the prompt information of the at least one access point to the access point and instructs the user equipment to start the AR scene.
After receiving the query response including the AR-on instruction, the user device scans the surrounding environment using the image pickup device, creates an AR scene, and outputs a live-action map corresponding to the target position of the access point in the AR scene.
When the user device arrives at the location of any access point in the live-action map, an image scan may be performed for a target object at the target location (which corresponds to the reminder information for the access point). The user device then performs image recognition on the scanned image and extracts features. In one implementation, the user device uploads the extracted features to a server for verification. And if the authentication is passed, the server issues the password of the access point to the user equipment. In another implementation, the user device may read the password information directly in the extracted features without network interaction.
The method for acquiring the access point password in the AR scene at least has the following advantages that:
a novel hotspot connection mode is provided, and the experience of connecting a user with wifi is improved. The user equipment can more intuitively acquire the relevant information of each access point in the AR scene and select the most suitable access point for connection, so that the connection success rate is improved.
Secondly, the access point can be determined and selected by the server according to the current position of the user equipment uploaded by the user equipment based on various factors (such as the distance between the access point and the user equipment, the signal strength of the access point, the load of the access point and the like), so that the stability of wifi connection is improved.
Thirdly, the invention also verifies the characteristic information of the target object sent by the user equipment through the server, thereby improving the security of wireless connection and preventing malicious connection from attackers.
According to one aspect of the invention, there is provided a method performed on a wireless device for obtaining cryptographic information of a wireless access point, comprising sending a query request to a server, the query request comprising identifiers of the one or more access points; receiving a query response from the server; starting an Augmented Reality (AR) scene in response to including an AR start instruction in the query response; and acquiring password information of an access point in the AR scene.

Detailed Description
In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below.
In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention, but the present invention may be practiced in other ways than those specifically described herein, and thus the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
Fig. 1 is an illustration of a wireless communication system 100 in accordance with various aspects of the disclosure. The wireless communication system 100 includes a user equipment 101, an access point 102, and a server 103. Note that only one user equipment 101 and one access point 102 are shown herein for simplicity. In practice, however, the wireless communication system 100 may include multiple user devices and/or multiple access points.
An access point may also be referred to as a hotspot, router, etc., as is well known to those skilled in the art. User devices may access a wireless network through an access point for social interaction, shopping, navigation, queries, and the like. The access point requires password authentication for connection. An access point may be referred to herein simply as an AP.
Examples of user devices include mobile phones, personal digital assistants, laptop computers, tablet devices, and/or other communication/computing devices capable of communicating over a wireless network. The user device may employ any operating system known in the art, such as an android system, an iOS operating system, and the like.
As shown, the server 103 includes a memory 104, the memory 104 storing information related to a plurality of access points (1, 2 … … N), including an Identifier (ID) of each access point, location information, hint information, password information (e.g., wifi connection password), and feature information. A server may also be referred to as a network device, as is well known to those skilled in the art.
One example of the storage of information about access points in memory 104 is shown in table 1 below.
AP 1 ID 1 Location information 1 Prompt information 1 Cipher information 1 Characteristic information 1
AP 2 ID 2 Location information 2 Prompt information 2 Cipher information 2 Characteristic information 2
…… …… …… …… …… ……
AP N ID N Position information N Prompt information N Cipher letterMessage N Characteristic information N
TABLE 1
An identifier of an access point uniquely identifies the access point, such as a Service Set Identifier (SSID) and/or a Basic Service Set Identification (BSSID) of the access point.
The location information of the access point may be absolute location coordinates of the access point including, but not limited to, longitude, latitude information. The access point location information may be predetermined and pre-stored in the server.
The hint information of an access point may be information corresponding to a preset binding target related to the access point. The binding target may be a stereoscopic object (e.g., a cup, a mouse, a home appliance, etc.), a picture, or text, among others.
The characteristic information of the access point may be information related to a preset binding target. For example, image characteristic information related to the binding target, and the like.
Note that although server 103 is shown here as a separate entity from access point 102, some of the functionality of server 103 may also be integrated into access point 102. For example, one or more of an access point identifier, location information, reminder information, password information, and feature information stored in memory 104 may be stored in access point 102. As another example, memory 104 may also be provided in access point 102 and server 103 may be omitted. In a further example, the one or more items of information in memory 104 may also be stored in a server different from server 103; for example, the feature information of the access point may be stored in another server, whereby the function of verifying the feature information may be performed by another server, as will be described below.
Fig. 2 is a message flow diagram of a method of obtaining cryptographic information for a wireless access point using augmented reality according to embodiments of the invention.
Note that in fig. 2, for clarity of illustration, access point 102 and server 103 are shown as separate entities, but in other embodiments, access point 102 and server 103 may also be integrated together to perform their respective functions without departing from the scope of the present invention.
The method for acquiring password information of an access point using augmented reality according to the present invention may include at least the steps of:
in step 201, a user device sends a query request to a server. Identifiers of one or more access points may be included in the query request.
For example, each access point in a wireless network may broadcast a signal to make terminal devices within its range aware of its presence, which may include an identifier of the access point (e.g., SSID/BSSID).
In alternative embodiments, the query request may also include other information, such as current location information of the user device, and so forth.
At step 202, the server, upon receiving an inquiry request from the user device, determines whether one or more access points identified in the inquiry request match its stored access point information.
For example, the server may match an Identifier (ID) of an access point in the received query request with a record in its memory, determining whether an entry corresponding to at least one of the one or more access points exists in the memory.
If there is at least one matching access point, the server sends an inquiry response to the user equipment, wherein the inquiry response can comprise an AR starting instruction, the position information of the matched access point or access points, prompt information and the like. For example, the query response may be in the form of an [ open AR instruction, (AP ID 1, location 1, prompt 1), (AP ID 2, location 2, prompt 2), … … ].
If there is no match, the server sends a query response including matching failure information to the user equipment, and the user equipment may restart scanning for surrounding access points after receiving the matching failure information.
In step 203, after the user device receives the query response, the AR scene is opened and the password is obtained in the AR scene in response to including an open AR instruction in the query response, as described in further detail below.
The switching on of the AR scene may be automatic or by user triggering.
Specifically, the user device may automatically start the AR scene in response to the user device determining that the AR start instruction is included in the query response, or may prompt the user on a display to determine whether to start the AR scene after determining that the AR start instruction is included in the query response, and start the AR scene by a user selection.
In step 204, the user device establishes a wireless connection with the access point using the acquired password.
Obtaining passwords in AR scenarios
The following describes a specific operation of the user equipment to obtain the password in the AR scene in step 203 in fig. 2 above.
According to various aspects of the present invention, the user device may output a live-action map superimposed with an access point icon (e.g., a dot or a small picture such as an advertisement provided by an access point provider) in the AR scene through the location and reminder information of the access point(s) returned by the server.
When the user device reaches the target location of any access point in the live-action map, an image scan may be performed by the AR client for a target object at the target location. The target object can be any binding object corresponding to the prompt message, such as pictures, words, stereo objects and the like.
After the image scan is complete, the user device may perform image recognition on the scanned image and extract features for use in obtaining password information. In one embodiment, the user equipment uploads the extracted features to the server for authentication, and if the extracted features pass the authentication, the server issues a password of the access point to the user equipment. In another embodiment, the user device may read the password information directly in the extracted features without network interaction.
The operation of acquiring the password information of the access point in the AR scene is described in detail below. As shown in fig. 3, the method of obtaining a password in an AR scene (as in step 203 above) may include the steps of:
in step 301, the user equipment starts an AR scene in response to determining that the query response from the server has an AR start instruction, and performs image scanning on a real scene of the surrounding environment using the image capturing apparatus.
As described above, the switching on of the AR scene may be automatically or in response to a user selection.
In step 302, the user equipment superimposes information (position information of the access point, prompt information, etc.) received from the server as virtual data in the scanned offline environment.
In one implementation, the user device may first present all matching access points returned by the server in the AR scene. For example, the access points are displayed as icons at corresponding positions in the AR scene according to the position information of the access points. The user device may then select one of the access points in the AR scene (e.g., by clicking on its icon). In response to a user selection, relevant information (e.g., reminder information, navigation information, etc.) for the access point is displayed in the AR scene.
In another implementation, the user equipment first selects one access point to connect to from among multiple access points returned by the server to present in the AR scene. For example, the user device may display a list of access points received from the server (e.g., a bluetooth key hotspot list for WiFi master keys) on the display to prompt the user to make a selection.
And then, the user equipment takes the position information and the prompt information of the access point to be presented as virtual data to perform visual rendering, and the virtual data and the real image of the real scene scanned by the user equipment are overlapped and fused, so that the access point is displayed in the AR scene.
For example, the user device may determine relative location information of the access point with respect to the user device based on its own location (e.g., which may be determined by a positioning function of the user device) and an absolute location of the access point provided by the server. The relative location information may include at least a distance of the access point from the user device, a bearing of the access point relative to the user device, and so forth. After the user equipment identifies the relative position of the access point, 3D mapping is carried out at the relative position, and prompt information of the access point is loaded. In 3D mapping, 3D mapping may be performed using a library of image modeling. The rendered 3D image is then displayed in a picture captured by the image capture apparatus, thereby forming an enhanced display picture.
The prompt for the access point may be displayed directly on the AR map or in response to the user clicking on an icon of the access point in the AR scene.
In step 303, the user device performs an image scanning operation at a target location of the access point and extracts image features.
The user equipment performs real-time image scanning for a target object (preset binding object) at a target position of any one of the access points in response to an image scanning operation of a user at the target position.
The user equipment then performs image processing on the scanned image to extract features therein.
In step 304, the user equipment acquires password information of the access point through the image feature obtained in step 303.
In one implementation, the user device uploads the extracted image features to the server for verification, and the server compares the image features with image features stored in the server and corresponding to the access point to determine whether the image features match. And if the password information is matched with the password information, the password information of the access point is sent to the user equipment. And if not, sending a rejection response to the user equipment.
In another implementation, the user device obtains access point password information directly from the extracted image features. For example, the binding target may be a picture (such as a two-dimensional code) that is pre-embedded with the password information of the access point, in which case the user device may read the password information directly from the two-dimensional code.
Fig. 4 is a flow diagram of a method for a user device to obtain a password in an AR scenario, according to aspects of the present disclosure.
In step 401, the user equipment sends a query request to the server. The query request includes identifiers of one or more access points scanned by the user device.
The identifiers of the one or more access points may be obtained by the user equipment by searching for broadcast signals of the access points around it, the broadcast signals including identifiers of the access points (such as SSID/BSSID).
In alternative embodiments, the query request may also include other information, such as the current location of the user device, and so forth.
At step 402, the user device receives a query response from the server.
The query response may include an open AR instruction and information (e.g., location information, reminder information) about at least one access point stored in the server.
In step 403, the user equipment starts the AR scene in response to the start AR scene instruction in the query response of the server. The user equipment scans images of a real scene of the surrounding environment, and the access point information received from the server is used as virtual data to be superposed in the scanned offline environment.
At step 404, the user device performs an image scanning operation at a target location of the access point.
The user device performs an image scan of a binding object associated with the access point, such as for an item corresponding to the characteristic information. The user equipment then performs image processing on the scanned image to extract image features thereof.
In step 405, the user equipment obtains password information of the access point.
The user equipment can upload the extracted image features and the identifier of the access point to the server, the server verifies whether the image features uploaded by the user equipment are matched with the stored feature information of the access point, and if the image features uploaded by the user equipment are matched with the stored feature information of the access point, the password information of the access point is issued to the user equipment.
Alternatively, the user equipment may also obtain the access point password information directly from the extracted image features.
Fig. 5 is a flowchart of an operational method of a server obtaining a password in an AR scene according to aspects of the present disclosure.
In step 501, a server receives a query request from a user device.
Identifiers of one or more access points may be included in the query request.
At step 502, the server queries for the one or more access points identified by the query request.
In particular, the server determines whether at least one of the identifiers of the one or more access points has a corresponding record in its memory. If there is a record, the attestation server stores the password information for the access point.
At step 503, the server sends a query response to the user device.
If, in step 502, the server determines that at least one of the access points identified by the query request has a corresponding record in its memory, the server includes an AR opening instruction and related information of the at least one access point (e.g., location information, feature information, etc. of the access point) in the query response for the user equipment to open an AR scenario and obtain password information of the at least one access point in the AR scenario.
In step 504, the server receives feature information about the access point from the user device.
The characteristic information may be characteristic information of an image of the user device scanning the target object in the vicinity of the access point according to the prompt information.
The server verifies this characteristic information of the access point, step 505.
Specifically, the server receives the access point identifier and the corresponding characteristic information from the user equipment, compares the characteristic information with the corresponding characteristic information of the access point stored in the server, and determines whether the two are matched.
At step 506, the server sends an authentication response message to the user device.
If the access point profile from the user device matches the corresponding profile of the access point stored in the server in step 505, the server transmits the password information for the access point to the user device.
And if the characteristic information does not match, the server sends a matching failure message to the user equipment.
Note that step 504-506 is optional, as indicated by the dashed box. For example, where the user device obtains password information directly from the scanned image, step 504 and 506 may be omitted.
It should also be noted that although the operation of verifying the characteristic information is performed in the same server that performs the query operation (e.g., step 502) herein, the verification operation may also be performed in another server separate from the server that performs the query operation, the other server storing the characteristic information of the access point, as mentioned above.
The above describes an embodiment of acquiring the cryptographic information of an access point in an AR scene according to the present invention, but other variations are also contemplated by the present invention.
In a preferred embodiment, the user equipment may include not only the identifier of the access point to be queried but also the current location of the user equipment in the query request sent to the server.
After determining the matching one or more access points, the server invokes map data on the line for each of the one or more access points to generate navigation guidance data arriving at the access point from the user's location, wherein the navigation guidance data may be navigation guidance data generated after the server integrates a three-dimensional image (e.g., street view image) arriving at the access point in conjunction with the user's location.
The server returns navigation guidance data regarding the one or more access points to the user device along with location information, and reminder information for the one or more access points. The user device may additionally enhance the display of the navigation guidance data in the live view image scanned in real time. For example, in the case where the server returns to an access point, the navigation guidance data may be directly displayed or displayed in response to a click of the access point icon by the user equipment. In the event that the server returns multiple access points, the navigation guidance data may be displayed in response to the user device clicking on the selected access point icon. .
Referring to FIG. 6, a schematic diagram of an augmented reality application scenario in accordance with the implementation is shown. After receiving the position information, the prompt information and the optional navigation guide data sent by the server, the user equipment performs visual rendering based on the AR engine of the foreground, creates an AR scene model corresponding to the prompt information of the access point, and performs enhanced display on the navigation guide data in the AR scene model.
As shown in fig. 6, the navigation prompt includes a guide arrow to reach the target access point displayed in the live view image scanned by the user equipment, and a virtual icon of a preset binding target (here, a cup) displayed at the target position of the access point in an enhanced manner. The user equipment can also interact with the server in real time, and continuously updates the navigation prompt based on the position change of the user, so that the user is guided to quickly arrive at the target access point.
Note that although fig. 6 shows navigation guidance data, the navigation guidance data may not be superimposed in the enhanced live-action scene.
In another preferred embodiment, the server, upon determining that more than one of the access points included in the query request match the access point information stored in its memory, selects an access point among the matching access points for connection by the user device.
The selection of the access point by the server may be based on various factors, such as the distance of the access point from the user device, the signal strength of the access point, the load of the access point, and so on.
The server then sends the location information, reminder information, and (optionally) navigation information for the access point to the user device.
