The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

The application discloses a device control method, which is applied to a first device, and the flow chart is shown in fig. 1, and comprises the following steps:

step S11, acquiring a power-on request, controlling the first device and the second device to be powered on based on the power-on request, and controlling the first device and the second device to establish a communication path based on the power-on request;

split-type devices, typically comprising at least a first device and a second device, for example: a split AR device, comprising: control end equipment and head end equipment, because control end equipment and head end equipment are separated, when using, the head end equipment is worn on user's head, and control end equipment is on user's hand or on one's body to control AR equipment, head end equipment and control end equipment are through wired or wireless connection, when control end equipment is controlled head end equipment, need be with control signal transmission to head end equipment, respond by head end equipment, realize control.

If the control end equipment controls the head end equipment to be powered on, the controller of the control end equipment sends a power-on command to the head end equipment after receiving the power-on request, the head end equipment responds, the head end equipment powers on each functional device of the head end equipment, and a communication path is established between the control end equipment and the head end equipment (the communication path is used for transmitting the control command of the control end equipment to the head end equipment after the split type equipment starts to operate). The head-end equipment receives the power-on instruction of the control-end equipment, responds to the power-on instruction to power on the functional equipment and establishes a communication path, which all need a certain time. After the control end device sends the power-on instruction to the head end device, it cannot be determined when the head end device completes power-on and when the communication path is successfully established, so that the control end device will default to transmit the power-on instruction to the head end device, and then the control end device will consider that the power-on is completed, and at this time, if the controller of the control end device sends a start instruction for controlling the operation of the head end device to the head end device. The head-end equipment may fail to operate or fail due to the communication path being established successfully or some functional devices being not powered up.

If the control end device controls one or more functional devices on the head end device, the one or more functional devices on the head end device cannot respond to the control effectively, and a control error is caused. The plurality of functional devices may be different kinds or functions of functional devices, and include one or more of a camera, a photosensor, a pressure sensor, a gyroscope, a control module, and the like.

In this embodiment, the processor is disposed on the first device (in this embodiment, the first device may be regarded as a control-end device), and when the first device acquires the power-on request, the first device sends a power-on instruction to the second device based on the power-on request (in this embodiment, the second device may be regarded as a head-end device), and establishes a communication path between the first device and the second device, and meanwhile, the first device also responds to the power-on request, so that the power-on of the plurality of first functional devices on the first device is completed. The plurality of first functional devices and the plurality of second functional devices may be different kinds or different functional devices, for example, one or more of a camera, a photosensor, a pressure sensor, a gyroscope, a control module, and the like.

Specifically, after the first device obtains the power-on request, the first device controls a plurality of first functional devices of the first device to be powered on, and also controls a plurality of second functional devices of the second device to be powered on, that is, the first device sends a power-on instruction to the second device, so that the plurality of second functional devices on the second device are powered on;

after the first device acquires the power-on request, the first device also controls the first device and the second device to establish a communication path based on the power-on request. Specifically, a first communication module is arranged on the first device, a second communication module is arranged on the second device, the first communication module is used for establishing a communication path with the second communication module, and after the communication path is completed, a control signal sent to the second device by the first device is transmitted based on the communication path, or a hardware data signal sent to the first device by the second device is transmitted.

The power-on instruction is sent from the first device to the second device without passing through the communication path, which may specifically be: the power management module is arranged on the first equipment, the power management module on the first equipment controls the power supply conditions of each device in the first equipment and the second equipment, and if the first equipment controls the second equipment to be powered on based on the power-on request, the first equipment directly transmits current to the second equipment so as to power on each functional device on the second equipment. It should be noted that, in this case, the first device and the second device may be connected by a wire.

Wherein, the power-on request may be: a user presses a start button on first equipment or second equipment, at this time, (a processor of) the first equipment acquires a power-on request, and both the first equipment and the second equipment need to be controlled to be powered on so as to respond to the power-on request; or, a sensor on the first device detects a signal, and then the processor of the first device generates a power-on request based on the signal;

alternatively, the following may be used: some sensor on the second device detects information such as: the first sensor on the second device detects a signal indicating that the second device is worn on the head of the user, and transmits the detected signal to the first device, and the first device generates a power-on request based on the signal and controls the power-on of the functional devices on the first device and the second device.

Step S12, feedback information is obtained, wherein the feedback information is used for representing whether the first equipment and the second equipment are completely electrified or not and whether the establishment of the communication path is completed or not;

the feedback information is used to represent whether the first device and the second device are completely powered on, specifically, the first device may obtain a signal indicating whether each first functional device on the first device is powered on, and also obtain a signal indicating whether each second functional device on the second device is powered on, combine the obtained signal indicating whether each first functional device of the first device is powered on and the obtained signal indicating whether each second functional device of the second device is powered on, obtain the feedback information indicating whether the first device and the second device are completely powered on, and then directly send the feedback information to the processor of the first device, where the processor only needs to obtain one feedback information to determine whether all the functional devices on the first device and the second device are powered on.

Specifically, the combination of the acquired signal indicating whether each functional device of the first device is powered on and the acquired signal indicating whether each functional device of the second device is powered on may be a first communication module of the first device, where the first communication module may receive the signal indicating whether each functional device of the first device is powered on and may also receive the signal indicating whether each functional device of the second device is powered on, and after receiving the signals, the first communication module directly combines the signals to obtain a total signal, and then the first communication module only needs to send the combined feedback information to the processor, and does not need to send a plurality of signals indicating whether the functional devices of different devices are powered on to the processor.

The feedback information can also indicate whether the establishment of the communication path is completed, and specifically, if the first device acquires the information that whether the powering on of the plurality of second functional devices sent by the second device is completed, it indicates that the establishment of the communication path between the first device and the second device is completed. If the second device sends information to the first device, the second device needs to transmit the information to the first device through the communication path between the first device and the second device, so that as long as the first device can receive the information sent by the second device, the establishment of the communication path between the first device and the second device can be confirmed, and the information can be transmitted.

And step S13, if it is determined that the first device and the second device are completely powered on and the communication path is established, sending a control instruction to control the first device and the second device to operate.

The processor of the first device acquires the feedback information, determines that the first device and the second device are completely powered on based on the feedback information, and establishes the communication path, which indicates that the first device and the second device can be started or controlled by the system and can perform other operations. In this embodiment, the control of the first device and the second device may be system start for controlling the first device and the second device, or may be switching from a standby state to an operating state for controlling the first device and the second device.

If the feedback information indicates that part of functional devices on the first equipment or the second equipment are not powered on and completed, continuing to wait for information whether the functional devices sent by the first equipment or the second equipment are powered on and completed, and sending a control instruction for subsequent control until the feedback information that all the functional devices of the first equipment and the second equipment are powered on and completed is obtained.

Further, it is determined that the first device and the second device are all powered on, and the following method may be used, for example:

after the power-on request is obtained and a first preset time length passes, the first equipment and the second equipment are determined to be completely powered on, wherein the first preset time length is at least not shorter than the time length required by each functional device in the first equipment and the second equipment to be powered on.

Specifically, when the processor acquires a power-on request, that is, timing is started, and in the timing process, the processor controls each functional device of the first device and the second device to be powered on, however, each functional device of the first device and the second device does not need to feed back power supply information, and only the processor needs to determine in advance the time length required by the power-on completion of each functional device of the first device and the second device, and then determines the time length of the longest time length required by the power-on completion of all the functional devices of the first device and the second device as a first predetermined time length, the processor only needs to start timing when the processor acquires the power-on request, after the first predetermined time length is set, considers that all the functional devices of the first device and the second device are powered on, and at this time, the timing is stopped, and any one functional device of the first device and the second device can be controlled.

Alternatively, it may be:

and if the feedback information is acquired, determining that the first equipment and the second equipment are completely powered on.

That is, as long as the processor acquires the feedback information, it indicates that the first device and the second device are all powered on completely. Specifically, the following may be mentioned: each functional device in the first equipment and the second equipment can feed back power supply information only after the functional device is powered on, if any functional device in the first equipment or the second equipment is not powered on, the power supply information cannot be fed back, the power supply information does not exist, and the processor cannot necessarily have feedback information.

Or even if there is a functional device that does not complete power supply in the first device or the second device, the power supply information may be fed back, but the processor may not assemble the multiple pieces of power supply information that include the incomplete power supply into the feedback information, that is, as long as the processor does not acquire the feedback information, even if it acquires the multiple pieces of power supply information, it may not indicate that all the functional devices have been powered up.

Alternatively, it may be:

and determining that the feedback information indicates that each functional device in the first equipment and the second equipment is powered on completely, and determining that the first equipment and the second equipment are powered on completely.

In this scheme, it is not identified whether the acquired power supply information includes power supply information that does not complete power supply, but only a plurality of pieces of power supply information are acquired, the acquired power supply information is summarized into one piece of feedback information, and only the processor identifies the feedback information, so that it is determined whether each functional device is powered on completely.

In this embodiment, feedback information that can represent whether the first device and the second device are powered on is acquired, so as to determine whether the first device and the second device are powered on completely and whether the communication path is established completely, which realizes that the subsequent control can be continued only after the first device and the second device are powered on completely and the communication path is established completely, thereby avoiding the problem of control error caused by the fact that part of functional devices on the first device or the second device are controlled without being powered on completely.

In this embodiment, various control instructions or control information are integrated or sent by the processor of the first device, the processor of the first device controls the first device and the second device, the second device is provided with a plurality of functional devices and a second communication module for establishing a communication path, the processor or the controller is not arranged on the second device, and the processor of the first device directly controls each functional device on the second device, so that the problems of large weight and heating of the second device due to more circuits and devices on the second device caused by the arrangement of the controller on the second device are avoided, and the problem of user experience is reduced if the second device is worn on the head of a user; and only set up each functional device on the second equipment, do not set up treater or controller, will reduce circuit and device on the second equipment, and can not appear the problem of generating heat, when wearing the second equipment on the user head, can improve user experience.

The device control method disclosed in this embodiment includes acquiring a power-on request, controlling a first device and a second device to be powered on based on the power-on request, and controlling the first device and the second device to establish a communication path based on the power-on request; acquiring feedback information, wherein the feedback information is used for representing whether the first equipment and the second equipment are completely powered on and whether the communication path is established; and if the first equipment and the second equipment are completely powered on and the communication path is established based on the feedback information, sending a control instruction to control the first equipment and the second equipment to operate. According to the scheme, after the instruction for starting the first device and the second device is obtained, the first device and the second device are controlled to be powered on, and a communication path between the first device and the second device is established. And after feedback information that all the first equipment and the second equipment are powered on and the communication path is established is acquired, the first equipment and the second equipment are controlled to start to operate, the problem that control errors can be caused by directly controlling the first equipment and the second equipment to be powered on and operate after a power-on request is received is avoided, and user experience is improved.
