Detailed Description

To make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clear, embodiments of the present application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Reference herein to "a plurality" means two or more. "and/or" describes the association relationship of the associated objects, meaning that there may be three relationships, e.g., a and/or B, which may mean: a exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone. The character "/" generally indicates that the former and latter associated objects are in an "or" relationship.

Household appliances usually have a timing function, for example, a washing machine can wash clothes in a timed time period through the timing function, a microwave oven can heat a real object in the timed time period through the timing function, and a dishwasher can wash bowls and chopsticks in the timed time period through the timing function. Generally, when the time duration is reached, the household appliance performs a reminder, such as an audio reminder. However, when the timing length is long, the user often processes other events in the timing length, and the reminder of the home appliance may be ignored in processing other events.

In order to improve the reminding effect of the household appliance reminding when the time comes, the embodiment of the application realizes a timing linkage function between the terminal and the household appliance. Through the function, a user only needs to use the terminal to shoot the countdown panel of the household appliance, the terminal can recognize the timing information of the household appliance and automatically create a timing event synchronous with the household appliance based on the timing information. When the timing duration of the household appliance is reached, the reminding can be performed through the household appliance, and the reminding can be performed through the terminal, so that the reminding effect of time reminding is improved. And the timing event is automatically set by the terminal based on the identified timing information, manual setting by a user is not needed, and the setting flow of the timing event is simplified. The following description will be made using exemplary embodiments.

Referring to fig. 1, a flow chart of a timing method provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. The method comprises the following steps:

and 101, acquiring an image through a camera, and identifying the acquired image.

In a possible application scene, when the timing linkage with the household appliance is needed, a user starts a shooting function of the terminal and shoots a timing panel of the household appliance by using the terminal. After the terminal collects images through the camera, the collected images are identified, and whether the images contain timing information or not is identified. If the timing information is identified, executing step 102; and if the timing information is not identified, executing a normal shooting process.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 2, when a click operation on the camera control 21 is received, the terminal performs image acquisition through the camera and performs image recognition.

And 102, responding to the fact that the timing information is contained in the image, and displaying a timing event setting control.

In a possible implementation, when recognizing that the image contains the timing information, the terminal does not directly perform timing event setting, but first displays a timing event setting control to prompt the user that the current image contains the timing information, so that the user can trigger setting of the timing event through the control.

The timing information identified by the terminal at least comprises timing time which can be the time currently displayed on the timing panel of the household appliance because the timing event is set to at least need timing duration.

The timing event setting control may be at least one of a button, an icon, or a popup, and the specific form of the timing event setting control is not limited in this embodiment.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 2, when it is recognized that the image includes the timing time "0: 48", the terminal displays the timed event setting control 23 on the upper layer of the image 22 and prompts the recognition that the image includes the timing task.

And 103, responding to the triggering operation of the timing event setting control, and setting the timing event based on the identified timing information.

When the user intends to perform image shooting for timing linkage, the terminal can be instructed to automatically set the timing event by triggering the timing event setting control. Correspondingly, when receiving the triggering operation of the timing event setting control, the terminal sets the timing event based on the identified timing information.

In one possible implementation, when receiving a trigger operation on the timing event setting control, the terminal automatically sets and executes the timing event through the timing application in the background based on the identified timing information.

In another possible implementation, since the identified timing information may have an error, in order to improve the setting accuracy of the timing event, when a triggering operation on the timing event setting control is received, the terminal jumps to display a timing event setting interface of the timing application, and automatically sets the timing event on the timing event setting interface based on the identified timing information. When receiving a confirmation operation of the automatically set timing event, the terminal executes the timing event.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 2, when a click operation on the timed event setting control 23 is received, the terminal jumps to display the timed event setting interface 24 and displays the automatically set timed event with the timing duration of 48 minutes in the interface. When the user determines that the timing event is correct, the timer can be started (namely, the timing event is executed) by clicking the 'start' control; when the user determines that the timing event is incorrect, the timing event may be further manually set within the timing event setting interface 24, such as manually setting the timing duration of the timing event.

Obviously, by adopting the timing method provided by the embodiment of the application, for some traditional household appliances without terminal interaction function, timing linkage between the household appliances and the terminal can be realized through image shooting on the premise of not establishing connection with the terminal. And the process of setting the timing event is automatically executed by the terminal, so that the setting process of the timing event is simplified, and the setting efficiency of the timing event is improved.

In summary, in the embodiment of the application, the terminal performs image recognition on the acquired image, and displays the timing event setting control when the terminal recognizes that the acquired image contains timing information, so that a user can trigger the terminal to automatically set the timing event based on the recognized timing information through the control; by adopting the scheme provided by the embodiment of the application, the terminal can realize timing linkage with the household appliance, for example, after the countdown is set for the household appliance, a user uses the terminal to shoot the countdown panel of the household appliance, the terminal can automatically create the timing event synchronous with the household appliance, and therefore the terminal is utilized to realize time-up reminding, on one hand, the user does not need to manually set the timing event, the setting efficiency of the timing event is improved, and on the other hand, the reminding effect is improved.

Referring to fig. 3, a flow chart of a timing method provided by another exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. The method comprises the following steps:

step 301, acquiring an image through a camera, and identifying a timing time contained in the image based on a timing time characteristic, wherein the timing time characteristic includes at least one of a number, a time separator and a timing knob.

Typically, the countdown displayed on the timing panel has a particular timing feature, such as a numeric and time separator between the numbers (e.g., ": when the timing panel is counting down by displaying dynamic numbers) and a timing knob when the timing panel is counting down using physical controls. Therefore, in this embodiment, the terminal recognizes the timing time included in the image based on the timing time feature.

In a possible implementation mode, a timing recognition model is arranged in the terminal, and the timing recognition model can be a machine learning model based on a convolutional neural network, and after the acquired image is input into the timing recognition model, the model performs feature extraction on the image, so that a timing recognition result is obtained based on the extracted features.

Step 302, responding to the timing time contained in the image, identifying the timing object contained in the image, wherein the timing object is an object acted by the timing time.

In some possible application scenarios, when a plurality of household appliances work simultaneously, such as a washing machine, a dishwasher and an oven, a user can sequentially shoot the timing panel of each household appliance and set a timing event, and correspondingly, when the timing duration of the timing event is reached, the terminal can remind that the timing is up. In order to further remind the user of the timing of which household appliance is reached when the user is reminded of the arrival time, in one possible implementation mode, when the timing time is identified to be contained in the image, the terminal further identifies a timing object contained in the image, namely an object acted by the timing time.

In a possible implementation mode, an object recognition model is set in the terminal, and the object recognition model can be a machine learning model based on a convolutional neural network, and after an image is input into the model, the model performs feature extraction on the image, so that an object recognition result is obtained based on the extracted features.

Schematically, as shown in fig. 2, the terminal recognizes that the timing object included in the image is a washing machine.

In another possible implementation manner, since the control panel of the household appliance may include some characters related to its own function in addition to the timing time, in order to improve the recognition accuracy of the timing object, the terminal may perform character recognition on the characters in the image to obtain a character recognition result. In order to reduce the influence of characters in the image that are not related to the timing object, the terminal may recognize only characters on the side of the timing time. The terminal may perform text Recognition on the image through an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology, which is not limited in this embodiment.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 2, the terminal recognizes that the timing period peripheral side includes characters: fine washing, quick washing, drying and spin-drying.

Further, the terminal determines a timing object included in the image based on the character recognition result and/or the object recognition result.

Optionally, the terminal matches the text indicated by the text recognition result with the keyword corresponding to the candidate timing object, so as to determine the timing object based on the keyword matching result.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 2, the terminal determines that the timing object is a washing machine based on the character recognition results "fine washing, quick washing, drying, and spin-drying".

It should be noted that, this embodiment only takes the two timing object identification manners as examples, and the terminal may also identify the timing object by using other manners, which is not limited in this embodiment.

Step 303, the timing task is determined based on the identified timing object.

Further, the terminal determines a timing task corresponding to the timing event based on the identified timing object. In one possible embodiment, the terminal stores a mapping relationship between the timing object and the timing task, so as to determine the timing task based on the mapping relationship. Illustratively, the mapping relationship between the timing object and the timing task is shown in table one.

Watch 1

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 2, the terminal determines the timed task as a laundry task based on the identified laundry machine.

Step 304, the timing time and the timing task are determined as the timing information.

And the terminal determines the determined timing time and the timing task as timing information so as to set a timing event based on the timing time and the timing task at the same time.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 2, the timing information determined by the terminal includes: a timed time of "48 minutes" and a timed task of "laundry task".

Step 305, in response to identifying that the timing information is contained in the image, displaying a timing event setting control.

The step 102 may be referred to in the implementation manner of this step, and this embodiment is not described herein again.

And step 306, responding to the triggering operation of the timing event setting control, setting the timing time as the timing duration of the timing event, and setting the time-out reminding content of the timing event based on the timing task.

In order to remind a user of which timing task is finished when the arrival time reminding is carried out, the terminal sets the arrival time reminding content of the timing event based on the timing task besides the timing time, wherein the arrival time reminding content is the content displayed when the arrival time is reached.

Optionally, the terminal displays the determined timing task in a timing event setting interface, so that a user can determine or manually edit the timing task. Illustratively, as shown in fig. 2, the timed event setting interface 24 displays the timed task "wash" in addition to the timed duration of 48 minutes.

Optionally, the arrival-time reminding content may be at least one of text content, voice content, picture content, or animation content, which is not limited in this embodiment.

In a possible implementation manner, when the timing duration corresponding to the timing event is reached, the terminal performs the arrival time reminding based on the arrival time reminding content. For example, while performing the audio alert, text content, picture content, or animation content is displayed, or voice content is played.

Illustratively, on the basis of fig. 2, as shown in fig. 4, when the time-out duration is reached, the terminal displays a time-out reminder 25 in the form of a text to remind the user that the washing machine has finished washing.

In the embodiment, the terminal identifies the timing time contained in the image based on the timing time characteristics, further identifies the timing object in the image, and determines the timing task, so that the timing event is set based on the timing time and the timing task, and on one hand, the accuracy of the determined timing information is improved; on the other hand, under the condition that a plurality of household appliances with set timing tasks exist at the same time, the arrival time reminding is carried out by utilizing the arrival time reminding content determined based on the timing tasks, the reminding effect can be further improved, and a user can conveniently and quickly position the household appliances.

In some possible scenarios, the terminal may only identify the timing time contained in the image, or may not identify the timing object in the image, and accordingly, the terminal determines the identified timing time as the timing information. Optionally, in order to remind which timing task is completed when the timing time is reached, when the timing time is identified, the terminal sets the timing time as the timing duration of the timing event, and sets the image containing the timing time as the arrival time reminding content of the timing event. The image containing the timing time can be automatically stored by the middle terminal, the user does not need to manually trigger shooting, and after the time-out reminding is completed, the terminal automatically deletes the image and releases the storage space of the terminal.

Optionally, when the timing duration of the timing event is reached, the terminal may display the image in addition to performing the sound prompt, so that the user may determine the household appliance completing the timing task according to the image.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 5, when the time length reaches the time-up period, the terminal displays a time-up reminder 51, and the time-up reminder 51 includes an image 52 of the time length.

In the embodiment, under the condition that the timing object is not identified or cannot be identified, the terminal takes the image containing the timing time as the arrival time reminding content, so that the arrival time reminding content is displayed during arrival time reminding, and the efficiency of determining the timing event by the user is improved.

In a possible application scenario, during the process of executing the timing task, a user may need to leave home for some reasons, and if the timing task of the home appliance is not timely turned off or suspended before leaving, resource waste and even potential safety hazard may be caused. In one possible implementation manner, in response to the triggering operation of the timing event setting control, the terminal acquires the event geographic position while generating the timing event based on the timing information, and binds the timing event with the event geographic position.

The event geographic location may be a longitude and latitude coordinate or a geographic location name (such as home), which is not limited in this embodiment. The event geolocation may be used to indicate where the timed object performing the timed task is located.

Furthermore, when the untimed timing event exists and the distance between the current geographic position and the geographic position of the event corresponding to the untimed timing event is larger than the distance threshold, the terminal carries out timing event reminding to remind the user of the untimed timing event, so that resource waste or potential safety hazard caused by forgetting of the user is avoided.

In an illustrative example, as shown in fig. 6, when there is a cooking task that has not yet arrived and the terminal detects that the distance between the current geographical location and the timing object oven corresponding to the cooking task is 20 meters, the terminal displays a timing event reminder 61 to remind the user that the cooking task has not yet been completed.

In the embodiment, when the terminal sets the timing event, the timing event is bound with the event geographic position, so that when a user is far away from the timing object, timing event reminding is performed based on the binding relation, resource waste and potential safety hazards caused by the fact that the user forgets the timing event are avoided, and safety of the household appliance when the household appliance executes the timing task is improved.

Through the scheme provided by the embodiment, although the terminal can perform the arrival time reminding based on the set timing event, in some scenarios, the user may not always pay attention to or use the terminal, and the arrival time reminding displayed by the terminal may also be missed. In order to further improve the arrival time reminding effect, the terminal determines the equipment currently used by the user, so that the arrival time reminding is carried out through the equipment, and the arrival time reminding touch rate is improved. The following description will be made using exemplary embodiments.

Referring to fig. 7, a flow chart of a timing method provided by another exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. In this embodiment, the method is described as an example of being used in a first terminal, and the method includes the following steps:

and 701, acquiring an image through a camera, and identifying the acquired image.

Step 702, in response to recognizing that the image contains timing information, displaying a timing event setting control.

In step 703, in response to the triggering operation on the timing event setting control, setting a timing event based on the identified timing information.

The implementation of steps 701 to 703 may refer to steps 101 to 103, which is not described herein again.

Step 704, in response to the time duration reaching the timing event, determining a reminding device, where the reminding device is a first terminal, or a second terminal logging in the same account as the first terminal.

When the timing duration of the timing event is reached, the first terminal does not directly perform time-out reminding, but determines the reminding device in the use state at first, wherein the reminding device in the use state can be the first terminal itself, or a second terminal logging in the same account with the first terminal.

Optionally, the first terminal may also determine the reminding device within a preset time (for example, within 1 minute) before the timing duration is reached, so that the time-out reminding is directly performed by the reminding device when the timing duration is reached, and the specific time for determining the reminding device is not limited in this embodiment.

In a possible implementation manner, when the first terminal is a smartphone, the second terminal may be a smart television, a tablet computer, a wearable device, or a smart housekeeping device, etc., which logs in to the same account as the smartphone.

Regarding the specific process of determining the reminder device, this step may include the following sub-steps.

1. And acquiring the equipment state of each terminal for logging in a target account, wherein the target account is the account logged in by the terminal.

In a possible implementation manner, the first terminal obtains, through the server, device states of the terminals that log in the target account, where the device states include a used state, an unused state, or an offline state.

Optionally, when the device is in the non-screen-off state and there is a running task or application, the first terminal determines that the device is in the use state.

Schematically, as shown in fig. 8, when the smartphone 81 is in an unused state, the smartphone 81 obtains the device states of the smart television 82 and the tablet 83 through the server, where the smart television 82 is in the unused state, and the tablet 83 is in a used state.

2. And determining the terminal in the use state as the reminding equipment.

Further, the first terminal determines the terminal in the use state as the reminding device.

Schematically, as shown in fig. 8, the smartphone 81 determines the tablet 83 in the use state as the reminder device.

In a possible implementation manner, when there are at least two terminals in use, the first terminal determines the terminal with the highest reminding priority as the reminding device based on the reminding priority of each terminal. The reminding priority can be determined based on the influence degree of the arrival time reminding on the current task executed by the terminal, for example, the influence degree of the arrival time reminding on the current task executed by the terminal is higher, the reminding priority is lower, otherwise, the influence degree of the arrival time reminding on the current task executed by the terminal is lower, and the reminding priority is higher.

In an illustrative example, the reminding priority of the terminal is, from high to low, sequentially: smart watch > smart phone > panel computer > smart television > smart sound box.

In other possible embodiments, the reminding priority may also be determined based on the terminal using distance, where the terminal using distance and the reminding priority are in a negative correlation relationship, that is, the smaller the terminal using distance is, the higher the reminding priority is, so as to achieve a higher reminding effect, and this embodiment does not limit this.

Of course, the first terminal may also determine at least two terminals in the use state as the reminding devices, which is not limited in this embodiment.

Step 705, performing arrival time reminding through a reminding device.

Optionally, when the reminding device is the first terminal, carrying out arrival time reminding based on the arrival time reminding content; when the reminding device is the second terminal, the first terminal sends the arrival time reminding content to the second terminal so that the second terminal can carry out arrival time reminding based on the arrival time reminding content.

The first terminal can send the arrival time reminding content to the second terminal through a network, or the first terminal can send the arrival time reminding content through a wireless communication connection (such as a Bluetooth connection) with the second terminal, and the reminding mode of the sent arrival time reminding content conforms to the working mode of the second terminal, for example, when the second terminal is an intelligent television, the reminding mode of the arrival time reminding content can be voice reminding or visual reminding; when the second terminal is the intelligent sound box, the reminding mode of the reminding content can be voice reminding.

Schematically, as shown in fig. 8, the smartphone 81 sends arrival time reminding content to the tablet computer 83 in the use state, and the tablet computer 83 reminds the user of arrival time.

In this embodiment, the terminal determines the terminal in the use state as the reminding device based on the device states of other terminals logging in the same account, so that the reminding device is used for performing time-out reminding, the contact rate of the time-out reminding is improved, and the reminding effect of the time-out reminding is improved.
