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 embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the invention, as detailed in the appended claims.
The remote control method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure is applied to a scene in which two or more devices perform remote interactive control based on position information. For example, the method can be applied to interaction control among the intelligent home devices in the intelligent home system. The technical problem to be solved is to realize accurate positioning of equipment in the process of carrying out remote interactive control between the equipment based on position information.
It is understood that the devices involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be understood as Internet of things (Iot) devices. For example, in some examples, the device related to the embodiments of the present disclosure may be a smart sound box, a smart television, a router, a smart lamp, or other smart home devices.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, positioning equipment is installed in equipment for remote interactive control, and accurate positioning between the equipment is realized based on the installed positioning equipment, so that position perception between the equipment is realized.
The embodiment of the disclosure provides a remote control method, which is applied to interactive control among the devices with the positioning devices. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, for convenience of description, one of the devices performing remote interactive control is referred to as a first device, and the other device is referred to as a second device.
In one example, function control can be achieved between the first device and the second device based on interaction control between the first device and the second device. For example, when the first device receives a function instruction for controlling the second device to execute a certain function, the first device locates the second device, sends the function instruction for executing the corresponding function to the second device, and controls the second device to execute the corresponding function.
It is understood that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second device may also receive a function instruction for performing function control on the first device, and locate the second device to the first device. The following describes an example of a process in which a first device receives a control instruction and controls a second device.
FIG. 1 is a flow chart illustrating a remote control method according to an exemplary embodiment. Referring to fig. 1, the remote control method is applied to the first device, and includes the following steps S11 to S13.
In step S11, a function instruction for controlling the second device at the specified location to perform the specified function is received.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a function instruction for controlling the second device at the designated location to execute the designated function may be issued by the user and received by the first device. The function instructions for controlling the second device at the specified location to perform the specified functions may also be issued by the first device itself or by another device different from the first device.
It is understood that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the remote interactive control is performed based on the location information, so the functional instruction involved in the embodiment of the present disclosure may be a functional instruction containing location information, where the location information contained in the functional instruction is used to control the second device at the specified location to execute the specified function. Wherein, the designated position included in the function instruction can be one or more of a designated distance position, a designated room position and a designated azimuth position.
In an example, for example, the user may say "love classmates, please help me turn on the lamp in the bedroom" to the sound box, and the functional instruction received by the sound box as the first device is: the bedroom lights are turned on. Wherein, the lamp is as the second equipment, and the bedroom is as the assigned position, and the assigned function is for turning on the light.
It is understood that in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the remote interactive control is performed based on the location information, so the function instruction is a function instruction including the location information, so that the first device can perform the positioning of the second device based on the function instruction.
In step S12, upon receiving a function instruction for controlling the second device at the specified position to execute the specified function, the second device at the specified position is located by the locating device.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a positioning device, such as an ultra wide-Band (UWB) chip, a router having a nanoscale dominant frequency chip, or the like, is installed in the first device and the second device. The first device may be located to the second device at a position corresponding to the position contained in the functional instruction by the locating device.
For example, in the above example, the function instruction is "turn on the lamp in the bedroom", the first device is located in the bedroom by the locating device, and then the lamp is determined to be controlled, and then the lamp-on action is executed.
In step S13, a function instruction to execute the specified function is sent to the second device, and the second device is controlled to execute the specified function.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, after the first device is located to the second device, a function instruction for executing a specified function may be sent to the second device, and after the second device receives the function instruction, the specified function corresponding to the function instruction is executed, so as to implement interactive control of function implementation between the first device and the second device.
For example, in the above example, after the speaker is positioned to the bedroom light, a "light on" command may be sent to the bedroom light. The bedroom and the like can execute the function of turning on the light after receiving the 'light-on' instruction.
It should be understood that, in the prior art, the lamp for turning on the bedroom is remotely controlled based on the pre-stored correspondence between the position and the device. When a user adds a new second device as a controlled device or moves a first device to a new environment, the user cannot prepare to execute the user's instruction because there is no pre-stored correspondence between the location and the device or the correspondence changes. Based on the mode of the embodiment of the present disclosure, when receiving a function instruction for controlling a second device at a designated location, a first device locates at the designated location through a positioning device in the first device without depending on a corresponding relationship between the location and the device, and then determines the second device, thereby implementing location awareness and function control between the devices. And based on the position perception among the devices, the real-time perception of various positions can be realized, and further the flexible control among the devices can be realized.
The embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with reference to practical applications.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of the second devices that control the execution of the designated function may be one or more. When the number of the second devices is one, the first devices are positioned to the second devices, and one-to-one remote interactive control is achieved. When performing one-to-one remote interactive control, the first device may perform, through the positioning device, positioning of the second device based on the distance, that is, the first device is positioned to the second device at a specified distance in the embodiment of the present disclosure.
On the other hand, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of the second devices that control to execute the specified function may also be multiple, and one-to-many remote interactive control is implemented, that is, one first device controls multiple second devices. When the one-to-many remote interactive control is carried out, the first equipment not only needs to be positioned to the second equipment at the specified distance, but also needs to be positioned to the second equipment at the specified angle, so that the second equipment at each distance in each direction can be accurately positioned and accurately controlled. It is to be understood that when a plurality of second devices are positioned to realize the interactive control, the plurality of second devices may be the same type of device or different types of devices.
In one example, the user gives "please help me turn on the nearest light" to the speaker, and the functional instruction received by the speaker as the first device is "turn on the nearest light". The loudspeaker box is positioned to the lamps of all rooms through the positioning equipment, the distance between each lamp and the user is determined, then the specific position of the lamp closest to the user is determined as the specified position based on the distance, and the lamp is indicated to execute the lamp turning-on action.
In another example, the user gives "please help me turn on the light of the kitchen" to the speaker, where the light is the second device, the location of the kitchen is the designated location, and the designated function is "turn on the light". The loudspeaker boxes are positioned to the lamps of all rooms through the positioning device, the lamps matched with the control expected by the user are further determined based on the angle and the distance of the kitchen, and then the lamps are instructed to perform the lamp-on action. Or providing the information of the positioning distance, the positioning angle and the like to the user, selecting by the user, and executing the function instruction based on the selection of the user.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, each device is installed with a positioning device, and signals can be transmitted and received between the positioning devices, so that in the present disclosure, ranging and positioning between the first device and the second device can be realized based on signal transmission and reception between the positioning devices.
In an example of the present disclosure, when performing ranging positioning, a distance between a first device and a second device may be determined based on a transmission rate and a transmission time of a signal transmitted between the first device and the second device.
In some embodiments, the positioning device obtains the distance from the second device by time of flight (TOF) ranging, i.e. calculates the distance between the positioning device and the second device by the time difference of transmitting and receiving signals. The distance between the first equipment and the second equipment can be conveniently obtained by ranging in a time-of-flight mode.
In an example of the present disclosure, the positioning device may be one or more routers with a nanoscale dominant frequency chip that determine position based on time of flight and speed of light of a Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) signal. When the positioning device is a router with a plurality of nanoscale main frequency chips, the positioning of the second device can be realized by adopting a mode such as triangulation.
In another example of the present disclosure, the positioning device may be a device having one or more UWB chips. The first device and the second device can send and receive signals through the UWB chip, and the distance between the first device and the second device can be determined through the transmission time and the transmission speed of the signals.
Furthermore, when the positioning device in the embodiments of the present disclosure is a positioning device including one or more UWB chips, ranging and positioning may also be performed according to the UWB signal strength.
The UWB is adopted to measure the distance and position to reach the measurement of centimeter-level distance, so the first equipment and the second equipment provided with the positioning equipment can be placed at any position of a room, and the accurate positioning among the indoor equipment is realized. Therefore, various devices can become positioning devices, such as in some embodiments, smart speakers, smart televisions, routers, and smart lights can become positioning devices in the present disclosure by setting up UWB chips. In the method and the device, a user does not need to independently set special equipment for positioning, so that the space is saved, and the cost is also saved.
According to the remote control method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, when the first device receives a function instruction for controlling the second device at the designated position, the second device at the designated position is positioned through the positioning device in the device, so that the second device can be accurately positioned, and the position perception among the devices is realized. And based on the position perception between the devices, the flexible control between the devices can be realized. According to the remote control method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, the second device is determined by positioning the positioning device in the first device to the specified position without depending on the corresponding relation between the position and the device, so that the position sensing and the function control between the devices are realized. And based on the position perception among the devices, the real-time perception of various positions can be realized, and further the flexible control among the devices can be realized.
