Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a flowchart of a device interaction method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 3, the method comprises the steps of: S31-S33.
S31: and when the mobile robot obtains the service requirement, determining the interactive object according to the service requirement.
The manner in which the mobile robot gets the service requirement may be implemented by at least one of the following.
As an implementation mode, voice collection can be carried out through the voice collection assembly on the mobile robot, and service requirements can be obtained according to collected voice information. The mobile robot may recognize the collected voice information in a voice recognition manner, so as to obtain various service requirements of the user, for example, when the voice information is recognized to include the name of the mobile robot, request contents such as a temperature query request and a security check request in the voice information may be used as the service requirements. The interactive object may be determined based on the location specifically referenced in the service requirements or the device information in the service requirements. For example, when the service request indicates that the temperature of room No. 1 needs to be queried, the thermometer installed in room No. 1 may be used as the interaction target.
As another implementation, the service requirement may be received through a communication component on the mobile robot. The mobile robot can receive service requirements from external equipment such as a mobile phone, a server or other robots, and therefore the interactive object is determined according to the received service requirements. In some application scenarios, the range of motion of each mobile robot is limited, for example, when the range of motion of mobile robot a is first floor and the range of motion of mobile robot B is ninth floor, robot a may invoke robot B for information collection/feedback. When the robot A can send a service requirement to the robot B so that the robot B provides auxiliary service for the robot A according to the service requirement of the robot A, the robot B can determine an interactive object of the nine-storied building according to the service requirement of the robot A.
As still another implementation, when a function button provided by the mobile robot is triggered, the service requirement may be determined according to the type of the triggered function button. The function buttons provided by the mobile robot may be physical menu buttons or virtual buttons displayed on the display screen of the mobile robot. When the user operates the function button of the mobile robot, the mobile robot can respond to the operation of the function button and determine the service requirement according to the function type corresponding to the function button in the operation process.
S32: when the interactive object is determined not to support the network communication function, the mobile robot moves to the target position where the interactive object is located, and collects the collected data provided by the interactive object in a specified data collection mode.
For example, when it is determined that the interactive object is a first device in the internet of things system, in order to acquire information of the first device, the mobile robot moves to a target location where the first device is located to perform information acquisition. When it is determined that the current interactive object is the first device which does not support the network communication function, the mobile robot may move with the deployment position of the first device as a target position.
The specified data acquisition mode may be an image acquisition mode, the specified data acquisition mode being related to a device type of the interactive object.
In an application scenario, when the service requirement is to obtain data of some thermometers, the mobile robot can move to a position where the thermometers are installed, start an image recognition function, and obtain content displayed by the thermometers in an image recognition mode.
Optionally, the method may further comprise S30 before acquiring the acquisition data provided by the interactive object.
S30: the mobile robot stores the equipment information of the interactive object, wherein the equipment information of the interactive object comprises the equipment type of the interactive object and the deployment position of the interactive object.
In order to facilitate the mobile robot to perform visual identification, the installation position of each interactive object can be set to be matched with the visual identification range of the mobile robot in advance, so that the situation that the visual identification range of the mobile robot is not enough to complete data acquisition is avoided. The device information of each interactive object is stored in advance, so that the mobile robot can conveniently determine whether the interactive object supports the network communication function according to the device type of the interactive object when the mobile robot needs to acquire the data of one interactive object or perform data interaction with the interactive object. The mobile robot can quickly determine whether the mobile robot needs to move according to the equipment type and the deployment position of the interactive object, and quickly determine a moving path under the condition that the mobile robot needs to move. The mobile robot can determine the position of the interactive object quickly according to the service requirement under the condition of pre-storing the equipment information of the interactive object, so that the mobile robot can move or acquire data, and the equipment interaction efficiency is favorably improved.
S33: the mobile robot sends the collected data to a server or outputs the collected data through output equipment on the mobile robot.
After the mobile robot obtains the collected data of the interactive equipment, the processing mode of the collected data can be determined according to the mode of obtaining the service requirement. If the service requirement is that the mobile robot is obtained through a voice recognition mode, the obtained collected data can be subjected to voice playing or display through output equipment such as a loudspeaker and a display on the mobile robot. If the service requirement is the request data received by the mobile robot from the mobile phone, the server or the robot, the collected data can be sent to the corresponding mobile phone, the server or the robot according to the service requirement, so that the data feedback of the service requirement is realized.
In an application scenario, the mobile robot C receives an environment detection request from the server, and the mobile robot C takes the environment detection request as a service requirement, wherein the environment detection request indicates that the current state of the fire fighting access needs to be acquired. The mobile robot C acquires data of each device arranged in the fire fighting access, for example, data displayed by a thermometer in the fire fighting access is acquired in an image acquisition mode or whether an indicator lamp in the fire fighting access works normally is determined in an image acquisition mode, whether an alarm bell in the fire fighting access rings or not is sensed in a voice acquisition mode, and the like.
In another application scenario, the mobile robot D obtains a room temperature query requirement from a hotel client or a hotel worker in a voice recognition mode, moves to a position where a thermometer is installed according to the room temperature query requirement, scans the temperature displayed by the thermometer, outputs the collected temperature to a hotel user through a loudspeaker, or sends the collected temperature to a server for analysis processing, so that hotel management personnel can know the state of each room through accessing the server.
In the method, a scheme for information interaction based on a mobile robot is provided, when a service requirement is obtained, if the mobile robot determines that an interactive object corresponding to the current service requirement is a device which does not support a network communication function, the mobile robot moves to a target position where the interactive object is located, the mobile robot collects collected data provided by the interactive object in a specified data collection mode, and then the mobile robot provides the collected data of the interactive object to a server or outputs the collected data through an output device on the mobile robot. In an interactive system, collected data can be provided to a server or a user by means of a mobile robot even if there are some interactive objects that do not support a network communication function. The method provides richer equipment interaction modes, and can be better applied to multi-equipment management scenes in environments such as hotels, exhibition halls and the like.
In an alternative embodiment, referring to fig. 4, the method may further include: S34-S35.
S34: when the interactive object is determined to support the network communication function, the mobile robot moves according to the network communication range allowed by the interactive object and the target position where the interactive object is located, so that the mobile robot is located in the network communication range allowed by the interactive object.
When the current interactive object is determined to comprise a second device in the Internet of things system, the mobile robot can carry out near field communication with the interactive object.
S35: and interacting with the interactive object according to the communication mode supported by the interactive object to obtain the acquired data provided by the interactive object.
When the interactive object is determined to support short-distance wireless communication, the mobile robot moves to a wireless communication range allowed by the interactive object and interacts with the interactive object in a wireless communication mode, so that the mobile robot can integrate and process data of different devices. The communication mode supported by the interactive object is related to the equipment composition of the interactive object, and the communication mode supported by the interactive object can be a wireless communication mode such as BLE, WIFI, UWB, zigbee, bluetooth and the like.
In an application scenario, when it is determined that the current interactive object is an air conditioner with a bluetooth communication function, the mobile robot can move according to the deployment position of the air conditioner so as to enter the bluetooth connection range of the air conditioner. When the Bluetooth signal of the air conditioner is scanned, the air conditioner can be interacted with the Bluetooth communication mode to obtain the setting parameter of the air conditioner or adjust the temperature of the air conditioner.
In another application scenario, the mobile robot determines that the mobile robot needs to move to a position for auxiliary service according to a service requirement sent by another associated robot or a server, but the mobile robot passes through a gate, an elevator and other equipment with an NFC function in the moving process, so that the gate, the elevator and other equipment with the NFC function can be used as an interactive object. When the mobile robot moves to the position of the gate, the NFC function is started, the gate is controlled to be started, when the mobile robot approaches the elevator, the elevator door is controlled to be opened based on the NFC function, and the elevator is controlled to drive the mobile robot to a specified floor. The mobile robot may transmit the position information during the movement to the related robot, or may transmit the position information during the movement and control data for devices such as gates and elevators to the server for storage.
In some application scenarios, the mobile robot may obtain multiple service requirements during moving, the mobile robot may interact with multiple interactive objects, and the above-mentioned S32-S33 and S34-S35 may be used in combination.
When the current interactive object is determined to be a third device in the internet of things system, the mobile robot may perform network communication with the third device based on the internet, or may scan the device identifier of the third device and establish a short-distance communication relationship with the third device within a communication range allowed by the third device when the mobile robot needs to interact with the third device, so as to perform short-distance communication with the third device temporarily.
Through the implementation mode, the mobile robot can not only collect data of the interactive object which does not support the network communication function, but also interact with the interactive object which supports the network communication function.
Optionally, the device interaction method may further include: and the mobile robot sends a control instruction to the associated equipment of the mobile robot according to the acquired data so that the associated equipment can perform corresponding operation according to the control instruction.
The associated device is a robot or an internet of things device supporting a network communication function (i.e., may be an associated device supporting a network communication function in the above-mentioned internet of things system).
In one example, the mobile robot can control the opening of smart windows, humidifiers, air conditioners and the like in a control room according to the room temperature collected from the thermometer.
In an application scene, when a robot A in a hotel lobby receives client check-in information or a check-in order from a server, the robot A sends a service demand to a mobile robot B on a floor where a check-in room is located according to the client check-in information or check-in room and check-in time in the check-in order, and the mobile robot B controls opening of an intelligent window and opening of a humidifier in the room according to the service demand and adjusts setting parameters of an air conditioner according to the collected room temperature.
Through the implementation mode, data acquisition can be carried out on various devices through the mobile robot, and other associated devices can be controlled through the mobile robot according to the acquired data, so that other robots or the Internet of things devices supporting the network communication function can cooperatively work with the mobile robot according to the received control instruction.
Optionally, as a way of determining an interactive object according to a service requirement, the process of determining the interactive object may include: and determining a target robot from the plurality of associated robots as an interactive object according to the service requirement.
As an implementation manner, the mobile robot may establish a communication relationship with a plurality of associated robots having a direct networking capability in advance, and when the mobile robot needs to perform a cooperative work with one or more other robots, according to a specific service requirement or a service task, one or more robots may be determined from the plurality of associated robots establishing a communication relationship in advance as target robots, so as to determine an interactive object.
As another implementation manner, the mobile robot may store a device interaction table in advance, and the device interaction table may include information of each device in the above-mentioned internet of things system and a communication type supported by each device.
