When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, the same numbers in different drawings refer to the same or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the following exemplary examples do not represent all implementations consistent with the application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with aspects of the application as detailed in the accompanying claims.
The remote control method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure is applied to a scene that two or more devices perform remote interactive control based on position information. For example, the method can be applied to interaction control among various intelligent home devices in the intelligent home system. In the process of remote interactive control between devices based on position information, the realization of accurate positioning of the devices is a technical problem to be solved.
It is to be appreciated that the devices involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be understood as internet of things (Internet of Things, iot) devices. For example, in some examples, the devices related to the embodiments of the present disclosure may be smart home devices such as smart speakers, smart televisions, routers, and smart lights.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, positioning equipment is installed in equipment for remote interactive control, and accurate positioning among the equipment is realized based on the installed positioning equipment, so that position sensing among the equipment is realized.
The embodiment of the disclosure provides a remote control method which is applied to the interactive control between the devices provided with the positioning devices. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, for convenience of description, one device of devices performing remote interactive control is referred to as a first device, and the other device is referred to as a second device.
In an example, the first device and the second device may implement functional control based on interaction control therebetween. For example, when the first device receives a function instruction for controlling the second device to execute a certain function, the first device is located to the second device, and sends a function instruction for executing a corresponding function to the second device, so as to control the second device to execute the corresponding function.
It will be appreciated that in embodiments of the present disclosure, the second device may also receive a function instruction for performing function control on the first device, and locate to the first device. The following description of the embodiments of the present disclosure exemplifies a process in which a first device receives a control instruction and controls a second device.
Fig. 1 is a flow chart of a remote control method according to an exemplary embodiment. Referring to fig. 1, the remote control method is applied to a 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 execute the specified function is received.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, a function instruction for controlling the second device at the designated location to perform the designated function may be issued by the user, and the first device receives the function instruction. The function instruction for controlling the second device at the specified location to perform the specified function may also be issued by the first device itself or by another device different from the first device.
It may be appreciated that in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the remote interaction control is performed based on the location information, so the function instruction related in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be a function instruction including location information, where the location information included in the function instruction is used to control the second device at the specified location to perform the specified function. Wherein the specified location included in the function instruction may be one or more of a specified distance location, a specified room location, a specified azimuth location.
In an example, for example, the user may say "xiaoyi, please help me turn on the bedroom light" to the speaker, and the function instruction received by the speaker as the first device is: the bedroom lights are turned on. Wherein the lamp is used as the second device, the bedroom is used as the appointed position, and the appointed function is to turn on the lamp.
It can be appreciated that in the embodiment of the disclosure, the remote interaction control is performed based on the location information, so that the function instruction is a function instruction including the location information, so that the first device can perform 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 location to execute the specified function, the second device at the specified location is located by the locating device.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, positioning devices, such as Ultra Wide-Band (UWB) chips, routers with nanoscale main frequency chips, and the like, are installed in the first device and the second device. The first device is positionable by the positioning device to a second device at a location corresponding to the location contained in the functional instructions.
For example, in the above example, the function instruction is "turn on the lamp of the bedroom", and the first device is located to the bedroom by the locating device, and further determines that the lamp is controlled, and further performs the lamp-on action.
In step S13, a function instruction for executing the specified function is transmitted to the second device, and the second device is controlled to execute the specified function.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, after the first device is positioned 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 second device executes the specified function corresponding to the function instruction, so as to realize interactive control of the function between the first device and the second device.
For example, in the above example, after the sound box is positioned to the bedroom lights, a "turn on" command may be sent to the bedroom lights. After receiving the instruction of turning on the lamp, the bedroom and the like can execute the function of turning on the lamp.
It should be understood that in the prior art, the lamp for turning on the bedroom is remotely controlled based on the correspondence between the pre-stored position and the device. When a new second device is added to the user as a controlled device or the user moves the first device to a new environment, the user cannot prepare to execute the instruction because the corresponding relation between the pre-stored position and the device or the corresponding relation is changed. According to the mode of the embodiment of the disclosure, when the first device receives the function instruction for controlling the second device at the designated position, the first device does not need to rely on the corresponding relation between the position and the device, and the second device is determined by positioning the positioning device in the first device to the designated position, so that the position sensing and the function control between the devices are realized. And based on the position sensing among the devices, the real-time sensing of various positions can be realized, and further the flexible control among the devices can be realized.
The remote control method according to the above embodiment will be described below with reference to practical applications.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of the second devices that control to perform the specified function may be one or a plurality. When the number of the second devices is one, the first devices are positioned to the second devices, so that one-to-one remote interaction control is realized. When one-to-one remote interaction control is performed, the first device can perform positioning of the second device based on the distance through the positioning device, namely the first device is positioned to the second device at the specified distance in the embodiment of the disclosure.
On the other hand, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of the second devices that control to perform the specified function may also be plural, so as to implement one-to-many remote interactive control, that is, one first device controls plural second devices. When one-to-many remote interactive control is performed, the first device needs to be positioned not only to the second device at the designated distance, but also to the second device at the designated angle, so as to accurately position and accurately control the second device at each distance in each direction. It can be appreciated that when the plurality of second devices are located to implement 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 sound box, and the function instruction received by the sound box as the first device is "turn on the nearest light". The loudspeaker box is positioned to the lamps in each room through the positioning equipment, the distance between each lamp and a user is determined, then the specific position of the lamp closest to the user is determined as a designated position based on the distance, and the lamp is instructed to execute the lamp-on action.
In another example, the user gives "please help me turn on the lights of the kitchen" to the sound box, wherein the lights are the second device, the position of the kitchen is the designated position, and the designated function is "turn on". The sound box is positioned to the lamps of each room through the positioning device, the lamps which are matched with the expected control of 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 information such as the positioned distance, angle and the like to the user, selecting by the user, and executing the function instruction based on the user selection.
Positioning devices are respectively installed in the devices in the embodiment of the disclosure, and signals can be received and transmitted between the positioning devices, so that ranging and positioning between the first device and the second device can be realized based on the signals received and transmitted between the positioning devices in the embodiment of the disclosure.
In an example of the present disclosure, when ranging positioning is performed, a distance between a first device and a second device may be determined based on a transmission rate and a transmission time of signals transmitted between the first device and the second device.
In some embodiments, the positioning device obtains the distance from the second device by means of time of flight (TOF) ranging, i.e. calculates the distance between the two by means of the time difference of the transceived signals. Distance measurement in a time-of-flight mode can be achieved conveniently.
In an example of the present disclosure, the positioning device may be one or more routers with nanoscale dominant frequency chips that determine location based on time of flight and speed of light of wireless fidelity (Wireless Fidelity, wiFi) signals. When the positioning device is a router with a plurality of nanoscale main frequency chips, the positioning of the second device can be realized in a triangular positioning mode.
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 receive and transmit 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 embodiment of the present disclosure is a positioning device including one or more UWB chips, ranging positioning may also be performed according to UWB signal strength.
The UWB is adopted to measure the distance to reach centimeter-level distance, so that the first equipment and the second equipment which are provided with the positioning equipment can be placed at any position of a room, and accurate positioning among all the indoor equipment is realized. Thus, various devices may be a positioning device, such as in some embodiments, a smart speaker, a smart television, a router, and a smart light may be a positioning device in the present disclosure by providing a UWB chip. In the method, the device for positioning is not required to be independently arranged by a user, so that space is saved, and cost is also saved.
According to the remote control method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, when the first device receives the function instruction for controlling the second device at the designated position, the second device can be accurately positioned through the positioning device in the device positioned to the second device at the designated position, and position sensing among the devices is realized. And based on the position sensing among the devices, flexible control among the devices can be realized. According to the remote control method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, the positioning equipment in the first equipment is positioned to the designated position without depending on the corresponding relation between the position and the equipment, and the second equipment is further determined, so that the position sensing and the function control between the equipment are realized. And based on the position sensing among the devices, the real-time sensing of various positions can be realized, and further the flexible control among the devices can be realized.
