Detailed Description

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the following describes specific technical solutions of the present invention in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. The following examples are intended to illustrate the invention but are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

Example one

The embodiment of the invention provides a device binding method, which is applied to first devices, wherein the first devices are bound devices. The first device can be intelligent devices such as an intelligent watch, an intelligent bracelet, an intelligent door lock and a tracker, and certainly, the first device can also be electronic devices such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a desktop computer and a personal digital assistant. The functions implemented by the device binding method of this embodiment may be implemented by a processor in the first device calling a program code, and of course, the program code may be stored in a computer storage medium.

Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating an implementation flow of a device binding method according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps:

step S101, the first device starts a near field communication module based on a first broadcast identifier sent by the server, and enters a pre-binding program.

Here, the near field communication module is to enable communication between the first device and other second devices. The near field communication module may be bluetooth or Wireless Fidelity (WIFI), and since the first device to be bound and the second device to be bound are both within a preset range in this embodiment, and in practical application, the first device and the second device may be within a certain range, data exchange between the first device and the second device may be achieved through a near field communication manner. Of course, the first device and the second device may also exchange data in other communication manners, for example, a 2G/3G/4G wireless communication manner, which is not limited in this embodiment.

In an embodiment of the present invention, step S101 may also be implemented by:

step S1011, when receiving the first broadcast identifier, the first device starts a near field communication module and is in an unbundable state.

Here, when the first device is in the non-bindable state, in this case, the second device may only search for the first broadcast identifier of the first device using the same near field communication method as the first device, but may not access the first device, or may not exchange data with the first device even if the second device is accessible.

Step S1012, when receiving the binding notification sent by the server, the first device changes from the non-bindable state to the bindable state.

Here, when the first device changes from the non-bindable state to the bindable state, the second device may access the first device using the same near field communication method as the first device to exchange data with the first device.

And step S102, the first equipment establishes physical connection with the second equipment through the near field communication module and performs authentication.

When the first device enters the bindable state, the first device can establish a physical connection with the second device through the near field communication module to exchange data. The authentication process is achieved by data exchange between the first device and the second device.

Here, the authentication is performed in order to verify whether the second device has the right to bind with the first device and to access the first device for data exchange with the first device to control the function of the first device. By authenticating the second device which is bound with the first device in advance, the safety of the first device can be effectively ensured, and the first device is prevented from being maliciously bound.

In an embodiment of the present invention, step S102 may also be implemented by the following steps:

step S1021, the first device receives the second key sent by the second device in a near field communication manner.

Here, the second key is generated by the second device according to a predefined algorithm based on the received identifier of the first device, the predefined algorithm is an algorithm configured by the server for the second device, and the algorithm is a predefined algorithm that is not disclosed. Thus, the second key generated according to the predefined algorithm is unique based on the received identification of the first device.

It should be noted that after the physical connection between the first device and the second device through the near field communication module is completed, the data connection between the first device and the second device is prohibited from being established in a near field communication manner, and at this time, the first device receives the second key sent by the second device in a near field communication manner.

In step S1022, the first device generates a first key based on a predefined algorithm.

Here, the first device also generates the first key based on the same predefined algorithm, as well as its own identity. Thus, since the identification of the first device is fixed and invariant, and the predefined algorithm is fixed, the first key generated by the first device is also unique.

Step S1023, when the first key matches the second key, the authentication is passed.

Here, the first device matches the first key with the second key, determines whether the first key is the same as the second key, and passes authentication if the determination result indicates that the first key is the same as the second key; and if the judgment result shows that the first secret key is different from the second secret key, the authentication is not passed.

And step S103, if the authentication is passed, the binding with the second equipment is completed.

If the authentication result of the first device to the second device is authentication pass, the second device is a device which can be bound with the first device. Then, the first device binds with the second device so that the second device controls the function of the first device, or can enable efficient data transmission between the first device and the second device. When the first device finishes the binding with the second device, the first device is changed from the bindable state to the bound state, and at the moment, the first device communicates with the second device through the server or communicates with the second device in a near field communication mode to exchange data.

If the authentication result of the first device to the second device is that the authentication is not passed, the second device and the first device cannot be bound, data exchange cannot be performed between the second device and the first device, and the second device cannot control the first device.

In an embodiment of the present invention, before the first device turns on the near field communication module, the method may further include the steps of:

step S104, the first device sends a first binding request to the server.

Here, the first binding request includes an identification of the first device. For the first device, its identity is only actively sent to the server and not to the other devices. That is, the identity of the first device is not exposed to the outside except for the server, and only the server can obtain its identity from the first device.

In the embodiment of the invention, the communication between the first device and the server can be realized through the server communication module, and the server communication module can communicate in a 2G/3G/4G wireless communication mode or in a near field communication mode such as Bluetooth and WIFI. Then, before the first device sends the first binding request to the server, the user is required to open the first device first, and after the first device is opened, the first device can establish communication with the server through the server communication module, and send the first binding request to the server.

It should be noted that, before the first device sends the first binding request to the server, the first device may be in a factory default state, at this time, the server communication module maintains a closed state, and the communication module between the first device and the other second device also maintains a closed state.

In step S105, the first device receives the first broadcast identifier sent by the server based on the first binding request.

Here, the first broadcast flag received by the first device is generated and transmitted by the server based on the first binding request. The first broadcast identifier is used for broadcasting to at least one second device around the first device to ensure that the at least one second device around the first device can search for the first device through the first broadcast identifier.

After the first device sends a first binding request including the first device identifier to the server, the server analyzes the first binding request to obtain the identifier of the first device, generates a first broadcast identifier according to a predefined rule, and sends the first broadcast identifier to the first device.

In the embodiment of the present invention, in the process of authenticating the second device, the method further includes the following steps:

in step S1061, the first device determines a first time.

Here, the first time is a time when the first device changes to the bindable state or a time when a first broadcast identifier is received. When the first device changes from the non-binding state to the binding state or when the first device receives the first broadcast identifier, the first device records the current time and determines the current time as the first time.

In step S1062, the first device determines a second time according to the first time and a preset validity period.

Here, the validity period may be preset when the first device is shipped from a factory, may be preset when a user sets the first device as needed, or may be a preset validity period allocated by the server to the first device. The validity period is a time period, and when the first device has determined the first time, the first time may be used as a start time of the preset validity period, and then an end time of the preset validity period is the second time.

In step S1063, the first device determines a third time to receive the second key.

Here, the third time is a time when the first device receives the second key transmitted by the second device.

Step S1064, if the third time is before the second time, and when the first key matches the second key, the authentication is passed.

Here, if the third time is before the second time, which means that the time when the first device receives the second key sent by the second device is within the preset validity period, the above steps S1022 to S1023 may be performed to authenticate the second device.

Step S1065, if the third time is after the second time, failing to authenticate.

Here, if the third time is after the second time, which indicates that the time when the first device receives the second key sent by the second device is not within the preset validity period, the second device is already in the authentication timeout state when sending the second key, and the authentication fails.

In the device binding method provided in this embodiment, in the process of authenticating the second device, whether the time when the first device receives the second key sent by the second device is within the preset validity period is determined by monitoring the time of the authentication process, so that if the first device cannot receive the second key sent by the second device for a long time, the authentication is overtime and the authentication fails, and the first device does not need to wait for receiving the second key all the time, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the first device.

In this embodiment of the present invention, after the first device and the second device are bound or after the first device is just powered on, the method may further include the following steps:

in step S1071, the first device determines the number of second devices bound to the first device.

Here, the number may be 0 or any positive integer of 1 or more. When the number is 0, it indicates that the second device is not bound with the first device at this time, and at this time, the first device may be a factory default state immediately after the start-up, or may be a state after being unbound with all previously bound second devices; when the number is any positive integer N which is greater than or equal to 1, it is indicated that N second devices are bound with the first device at this time, that is, after the first device and the second device are bound, the number N of the second devices bound with the first device is obtained.

Step S1072, if the number of the second devices reaches a preset threshold, the first device is in an unbundable state.

Here, the preset threshold is a preset number threshold of the second devices that can be bound with the first device. The preset threshold may be preset by the first device when the first device leaves a factory, may also be preset by a user by setting the first device as needed, and may also be a preset threshold allocated by the server for the first device.

And when the number N of the second devices reaches a preset threshold value M, the first device is in an unbondable state. For example, a user may preset a preset threshold M to be 3, and at this time, the number of the second devices already bound to the first device is 3, the first device determines that the number N of the second devices bound to the first device is 3, and determines that the value of N reaches the preset threshold M, that is, the value of N is equal to the value of M, and then the first device is in an unbundable state at this time.

Step S1073, if the number of the second devices does not reach the preset threshold value, the near field communication module is started based on the second broadcast identifier sent by the server, and the binding state is entered.

Here, when the number N of the second devices does not reach the preset threshold M, it indicates that the first device may also bind with other second devices at this time. For example, a preset threshold M may be preset by a user to be 3, and at this time, the number of the second devices already bound to the first device is 2, the first device determines that the number N of the second devices bound to the first device is 2, and determines that the value of N does not reach the preset threshold M, that is, the value of N is smaller than the value of M, and then the first device may also bind to other second devices at this time.

Step S1074, a connection is created with another second device through the near field communication module, and authentication is performed.

Step S1075, if the authentication is passed, completing the binding with the another second device.

Here, the steps S1073 to S1075 are the same as the binding process of the steps S102 to S103, and this embodiment is not described again for saving space. Steps S1073 to S1075 are to dynamically allocate a broadcast identifier to the first device, so that the first device can be bound to a plurality of second devices within the validity period, so as to avoid a situation where only one second device is bound, and the one second device has a fault and cannot effectively implement control over the first device.

According to the device binding method provided by the embodiment, the first device can be bound with at least one second device, when the number of the second devices bound with the first device reaches the preset threshold, the first device is in a non-binding state, and at this time, even if other second devices meeting the binding condition still exist, the second device cannot be bound with the first device, so that resource waste caused by too many useless second devices being bound with the first device can be prevented, and malicious binding of the second device to the first device can be avoided. In addition, when the number of the second devices bound with the first device does not reach the preset threshold value, the first device continues the binding process, so that other second devices meeting the conditions can be bound with the first device, the binding of the first device and the plurality of second devices is realized, more requirements of users are met, and the diversification of the user requirements is realized.

Fig. 2 is a schematic view of an application scenario of the device binding method according to the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, here, a first device is an intelligent bracelet 201, a second device is a mobile phone 202, for example, the intelligent bracelet 201 is worn on a hand of a child, and the mobile phone 202 is carried by a parent, by using the device binding method according to the embodiment of the present invention, after the intelligent bracelet 201 and the mobile phone 202 are bound, the intelligent bracelet 201 and the mobile phone 202 can perform data transmission, so that the parent can control the intelligent bracelet 201 worn by the child through the mobile phone 202, for example, the alarm clock time on the intelligent bracelet is controlled through the mobile phone, so as to prevent the child from late learning; acquiring the position of the smart bracelet by using a mobile phone to determine the current specific position of the child; the mobile phone is used for controlling the smart bracelet to start a photographing function or a shooting function so as to acquire the environment of the position of the child, so that the safety condition of the child is determined.

The device binding method provided by this embodiment is adopted to bind the smart band 201 and the mobile phone 202 in fig. 2, first, the smart band of the child is opened, and the binding button is selected to operate to control the smart band to bind, then, the smart band sends a first binding request to the server to request to bind with the mobile phone of the parent, where the first binding request includes an identifier of the smart band, and the identifier may be an Identity Identifier (ID) of the smart band. After the smart band sends the first binding request, the server sends a first broadcast identifier to the smart band based on the first binding request, the smart band opens a WIFI function based on the first broadcast identifier and enters a bindable state, at the moment, the mobile phone of a parent receives a predefined rule sent by the server and searches for the identifier of the smart band according to the predefined rule, the identifier of the smart band is sent to the server, and finally the smart band is connected with the mobile phone through the WIFI function and authenticates the mobile phone, and if the identifier of the smart band passes the authentication, the binding with the mobile phone is completed. The whole binding process only needs a user to open the intelligent bracelet and select the binding button, the other binding steps are completed by the equipment, the full automation can be realized by the binding process, and the binding process is more convenient.

Example two

The embodiment of the invention provides a device binding method, which is applied to a device binding system, wherein the system comprises at least one first device of a bound device, at least one second device serving as the bound device and a server. The first device may be an intelligent device such as a smart watch, a smart bracelet, a smart door lock, a tracker, or an electronic device such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a desktop computer, and a personal digital assistant. The second device is used for managing the bound first device, the second device can be an electronic device such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a desktop computer and a personal digital assistant, and certainly, the second device can also be an intelligent device such as a smart watch and a smart bracelet.

Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of an implementation flow of a second device binding method according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 3, the method includes the following steps:

step S301, the server sends a first broadcast identifier to the first device.

Here, the first binding request includes an identification of the first device.

In this embodiment of the present invention, the step S301 may include the following steps:

step S3011, when the server receives the first binding request sent by the first device, the server generates the first broadcast identifier according to the predefined rule.

Here, the first broadcast identification is generated and transmitted by the server based on the first binding request. The first broadcast identifier is used for broadcasting to at least one second device around the first device to ensure that the at least one second device around the first device can search for the first device through the first broadcast identifier.

When the server receives the first binding request sent by the first device, the server analyzes the first binding request to obtain the identifier of the first device, and generates a first broadcast identifier according to a predefined rule.

Step S3012, send the first broadcast identifier to the first device.

Step S302, the first device starts the nfc module and enters a pre-binding procedure.

Step S303, the server sends the predefined rule to the second device.

Here, the predefined rule is a canonical format for generating the first broadcast identifier, and the predefined rule may specify a character string format of the generated first broadcast identifier; the first broadcast identification transmitted by the second device may be at least one.

Step S304, the second device sends the first broadcast identifier determined from the set of broadcast identifiers searched by itself to the server.

In this embodiment of the present invention, the step S304 may include the following steps:

in step S3041, the second device searches the broadcast identifier set according to the predefined rule.

Here, since the first broadcast identifier sent by the server to the first device is generated according to a predefined rule, the second device performs a search according to the predefined rule, and when the first device is within the search range, the second device can search the first device according to the predefined rule.

In this embodiment, the second device may search for at least one first device, and then, according to a predefined rule, the second device may search for a broadcast identifier set, where the broadcast identifier set includes at least one broadcast identifier, and each broadcast identifier corresponds to one first device. Therefore, when the second device searches for a plurality of broadcast identifiers in the broadcast identifier set, the second device searches for a plurality of first devices.

Step S3042, the second device sends the first broadcast identifier determined from the broadcast identifier set to the server.

Here, the second device determines at least one first broadcast identifier from the broadcast identifier set, and in implementation, all broadcast identifiers in the broadcast identifier set may be displayed and output to a user, and the user selects at least one broadcast identifier from the plurality of broadcast identifiers, so that the broadcast identifier selected by the user is the determined first broadcast identifier.

And the second device sends the determined first broadcast identification to the server, wherein the determined first broadcast identification can be at least one, and when the determined first broadcast identifications are multiple, the second device indicates that the user needs to bind multiple second devices with the first device.

Step S305, the server notifies the first device corresponding to the first broadcast identifier to enter a bindable state.

When the server receives a first broadcast identifier sent by the second device, the server analyzes the first broadcast identifier, determines a first device corresponding to the first broadcast identifier, and sends a binding notification to the determined first device to notify the first device to enter a bindable state after the first device is determined.

In step S306, the first device maintains a bindable state.

Step S307, the server sends the identifier of the first device corresponding to the first broadcast identifier to the second device.

Here, the first device is a first device corresponding to the determined first broadcast identifier transmitted to the server by the second device. The server searches for the first device corresponding to the first broadcast identifier based on the first broadcast identifier sent by the second device, and sends the identifier of the first device to the second device when the first device is found.

It should be noted that the number of the identifiers of the first device is at least one, and the number of the identifiers of the first device is equal to or less than the number of the first broadcast identifiers determined by the second device. For example, when the number K of the first broadcast identifiers determined by the second device in the broadcast identifier set is 3, and the second device sends the first broadcast identifiers to the server, the number of the first devices found by the server is also 3, and the number L of the identifiers of the first devices sent to the second device is also 3. Or, when the number K of the first broadcast identifiers determined by the second device in the broadcast identifier set is 3, the second device sends the first broadcast identifier to the server, and the server only finds two first devices, then the number L of the identifiers of the first devices sent to the second device is 2.

Step S308, the first device establishes physical connection with the second device through the near field communication module, and performs authentication.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the authentication in step S308 may be implemented by the following steps:

and S3081, the second device generates a second key based on a predefined algorithm and sends the second key to the first device in a near field communication mode.

Step S3082, when the first device passes the authentication based on the second key, receiving an authentication pass notification sent by the first device.

And S3083, if the authentication is passed, the binding with the first equipment is completed.

In step S309, the server receives the binding success notification sent by the second device.

Step S310, the server establishes a mapping relationship between the first device and the second device.

And after the second device and the first device are bound, the server receives a binding success notice sent by the second device, and establishes a mapping relation between the first device and the second device according to the identification information of the first device and the second device to form binding information. Here, the mapping relationship between the first device and the second device is association information between the first device and the second device, that is, the binding information.

According to the equipment binding method provided by the embodiment of the invention, because the broadcast identification set is searched according to the predefined rule, the searched broadcast identifications are all the broadcast identifications of the first equipment in a bindable state, so that the effective binding of the first equipment and the second equipment can be ensured, the whole binding process can be fully automated, the binding process is more convenient and faster, and the user experience can be effectively improved. In addition, after receiving the first broadcast identifier sent by the second device, the server sends the identifier of the first device corresponding to the first broadcast identifier to the second device, so that accurate binding of the first device and the second device can be guaranteed, binding errors are avoided, full automation of the whole binding process can be realized, the binding process is more convenient, and user experience can be effectively improved.
