Step 202, responding to an image acquisition instruction, calling an image acquisition component to acquire an image identification code corresponding to a target device storage unit in a device management cabinet, wherein the device to be managed is stored in the target device storage unit.

The device management method provided by the embodiment of the present specification is applied to a device to be managed, which is a digital terminal that needs to perform device management on the device to be managed, and includes, but is not limited to, a handheld terminal, a personal digital assistant, a handheld cash register, a barcode scanning gun, and the like widely used in the industries such as express delivery, logistics, business super/intelligent manufacturing, and the like. And managing the equipment, including but not limited to borrowing and returning management, charging, state data statistics, fault repair, use condition statistical analysis and the like.

The equipment management cabinet comprises a plurality of equipment storage units, each equipment storage unit can be used for storing one or at least two pieces of equipment to be managed, and when a user has a requirement for lending the equipment to be managed, the equipment to be managed can be taken out from the equipment storage unit, or when the user has a requirement for returning the equipment to be managed, the equipment to be managed can be put into the equipment storage unit.

Wherein the client includes, but is not limited to, a mobile computer, a mobile computing device, or a face recognition device, wherein the mobile computing device includes, but is not limited to, a smartphone, tablet, personal digital assistant, laptop, notebook, netbook, etc., a mobile phone (e.g., smartphone), a wearable computing device (e.g., smartwatch, smartglasses, etc.), or other type of mobile device, or a stationary computing device such as a desktop computer or PC.

In practical application, after a user sends a loan request of equipment to be managed to a client, the client can verify the identity of the user, and can send an unlocking instruction to an electromagnetic lock configured in an equipment management cabinet under the condition that the verification is passed, the electromagnetic lock unlocks the equipment management cabinet, then the user can open a cabinet door of the equipment management cabinet and take out the equipment to be managed from any equipment storage unit in the equipment management cabinet which meets the loan condition, if the user takes out the equipment to be managed from the equipment storage unit 1, the user can send an image acquisition instruction to the equipment to be managed in the taking-out process, and the equipment to be managed calls an image acquisition component to acquire an image identification code corresponding to the equipment storage unit 1; wherein the image identification code includes, but is not limited to, a two-dimensional code, a bar code, or other identifiable identification code.

Or after the user sends a return request of the equipment to be managed to the client, the client can verify the identity of the user, and can send an unlocking instruction to the electromagnetic lock under the condition that the verification is passed, the electromagnetic lock unlocks the equipment management cabinet, then the user can open the cabinet door of the equipment management cabinet and place the equipment to be managed into any equipment storage unit in the equipment management cabinet which meets the return condition, if the user places the equipment to be managed into the equipment storage unit 2, the user can send an image acquisition instruction to the equipment to be managed in the placing process, and the equipment to be managed calls an image acquisition assembly to acquire an image identification code corresponding to the equipment storage unit 2; wherein the image identification code includes, but is not limited to, a two-dimensional code, a bar code, or other identifiable identification code.

Step 204, analyzing the image identification code to obtain the position information of the target equipment storage unit in the equipment management cabinet.

In specific implementation, after the image identification code is collected by the device to be managed, the image identification code can be analyzed, and the position information of the target device storage unit in the device management cabinet is determined according to the analysis result, which can be specifically realized in the following way:

Specifically, after the image identification code is collected by the device to be managed, the image identification code can be analyzed to generate a corresponding analysis result, then the position information of the grid expressed by the image identification code in the database can be retrieved based on the analysis result, the position information of the grid can represent the position information of the device storage unit to which the image identification code belongs in the device management cabinet, and the position information can be used as the unique identifier of the device storage unit in the device management cabinet.

In practical application, the database may be a cloud database, or a database pre-stored in the local of the digital terminal. Before receiving a borrowing and returning request of a user for the device to be managed, the mapping relation between the analysis result of the image identification code and the position information can be stored in the database in advance, after the device to be managed analyzes the image identification code to obtain a corresponding first analysis result, the mapping relationship between the second analysis results of the image identification codes and the position information stored in the database in advance can be read, then comparing the first analysis result with a plurality of second analysis results, and under the condition that a second analysis result which is consistent with the first analysis result exists in the plurality of second analysis results, the second analysis result is used as a target analysis result, and the target position information associated with the target analysis result is determined according to the mapping relation, and using the target position information as the position information of the target equipment storage unit in the equipment management cabinet.

As described above, in the process that a user takes out a device to be managed from the device storage unit 1, the device to be managed collects an image identification code corresponding to the device storage unit 1, and after the image identification code is collected, the image identification code can be analyzed, then the position information of the device storage unit 1 in the device management cabinet is determined according to the analysis result, and then the device to be managed sends the position information and its own device identifier to the client, where the position information can be used to represent that the user takes out the device to be managed from the device storage unit corresponding to the position information.

Or, in the process that the user puts the device to be managed into the device storage unit 2, the device to be managed collects the image identification code corresponding to the device storage unit 2, analyzes the image identification code after collecting the image identification code, determines the position information of the device storage unit 2 in the device management cabinet according to the analysis result, and then sends the position information and the device identification of the device to be managed to the client, wherein the position information can be used for representing that the user puts the device to be managed into the device storage unit corresponding to the position information.

After receiving the location information and the device identifier, the client generates borrowing and returning information of the device to be managed based on the location information and the device identifier.

Step 206, sending the device identifier and the location information of the device to be managed to a client, wherein the client generates borrowing and returning information of the device to be managed according to the device identifier and the location information.

Specifically, as described above, after retrieving the cell location information expressed by the image identifier in the database based on the parsing result, the device to be managed may send its own device information and the cell location information to the client, so that the client generates the borrowing and returning information of the device to be managed based on the information. In practical application, the device to be managed can send the device information of the device to be managed and the grid position information to the client through the cloud service platform.

Therefore, the device identifier of the device to be managed and the location information are sent to a client, specifically, the device identifier of the device to be managed and the location information are sent to a cloud service platform, wherein the cloud service platform sends the device identifier and the location information to the client.

The device to be managed and the cloud service platform are in communication connection, and the cloud service platform and the client are in communication connection, so that the device to be managed can send the position information and the device identification to the cloud service platform, and then the cloud service platform sends the position information and the device identification to the client. The cloud service platform only has a data mirroring function, and the client is responsible for local computing and decision making.

In addition, when the client generates the borrowing and returning information of the device to be managed, in addition to using the aforementioned grid position information and the device identifier of the device to be managed, the client can also combine with the charging state information of the device to be managed and the lock state data of the device management cabinet when the user takes the device to be managed out of the device storage unit or puts the device to be managed into the device storage unit, so that the client can establish a bluetooth communication link with each device storage unit and the electromagnetic lock in the device management cabinet and acquire the charging state information and the lock state data through the bluetooth communication link, and the method can be specifically realized by the following steps:

Specifically, the device management cabinet includes a plurality of device storage units, each device storage unit is configured with a charging wire that can be used for charging a device to be managed, after a user places the device to be managed into the device storage unit, the charging wire needs to be inserted into the device to be managed to ensure that the device to be managed enters a charging state, and when the user takes the device to be managed out of the device storage unit, the charging wire in the device storage unit needs to be disconnected from the device to be managed, so that when the client generates borrowing and returning information of the device to be managed, the client can determine whether the device to be managed is successfully returned or successfully borrowed according to the charging state information of the device to be managed and the device storage unit.

In addition, each equipment management cabinet is provided with an electromagnetic lock, the electromagnetic lock can be used for controlling the switch of the equipment management cabinet, and the equipment storage unit of the equipment management cabinet and the electromagnetic lock can perform data transmission with the client through Bluetooth, namely, a first Bluetooth communication link is established between the client and each equipment storage unit in the equipment management cabinet, a second Bluetooth communication link is established between the client and the electromagnetic lock, and data transmission is performed through the first Bluetooth communication link and the second Bluetooth communication link.

In practical application, under the condition that a user has a borrowing or returning requirement on equipment to be managed, the user can send an unlocking instruction to an electromagnetic lock through a client, before the client sends the unlocking instruction, the client can firstly carry out identity verification on the user, and under the condition that the verification is passed, the unlocking instruction is sent to the electromagnetic lock, so that the electromagnetic lock carries out unlocking operation on the equipment management cabinet; after the unlocking is successful, the user can borrow the equipment to be managed from any equipment storage unit in the equipment management cabinet, or place the borrowed equipment to be managed in the idle equipment storage unit in the equipment management cabinet, so as to return the equipment to be managed.

When the equipment management cabinet is in an unlocked state, the charging state information of each equipment storage unit can be detected, for example, the charging starting time information or the charging disconnecting time information (the time point of starting to charge the equipment to be managed or stopping to charge the equipment to be managed) is detected, and the information is sent to the client through the first Bluetooth communication link; in addition, after the user successfully takes the device to be managed out of the device storage unit or successfully puts the device to be managed into the device storage unit, the user can send a locking instruction to the electromagnetic lock through the client, the electromagnetic lock responds to the locking instruction to lock the device management cabinet, and the user sends the lock state data of the device management cabinet to the client through the second Bluetooth communication link.

After receiving the charging state information of the equipment storage unit and the lock state data of the electromagnetic lock, the client can also acquire the charging state information of the equipment to be managed, so that borrowing or returning information of the equipment to be managed is generated together according to the information, the position information and the equipment identification of the equipment to be managed, wherein the charging state information of the equipment to be managed can be sent to the client by the equipment to be managed through the cloud service platform.

In the embodiment of the description, when the user returns the device to be managed, in the process of placing the device to be managed in the device storage unit, the device to be managed collects the image identification code corresponding to the device storage unit, and analyzes the image identification code, so as to determine the position information of the device storage unit in the device management cabinet according to the analysis result, wherein the position information is used for representing that the user places the device to be managed in the device storage unit corresponding to the position information, and the client can also determine whether the user successfully returns the device to be managed according to the position information, which is beneficial to ensuring the accuracy of the determination result.

In specific implementation, in addition to determining whether the user successfully returns the device to be managed through the position information, the determination may be performed by combining acceleration data and/or angular velocity data of the device to be managed, which may specifically be implemented in the following manner:

Specifically, after the user successfully returns the device to be managed, the device to be managed should be in a static state (without considering the situation of vibration), so when determining whether the user successfully returns the device to be managed, the acceleration data and/or the angular velocity data of the device to be managed can be combined, so that the determination result is more accurate.

The acceleration data and/or the angular velocity data can be acquired by a three-axis gyroscope and an acceleration sensor of the user terminal, the three-axis gyroscope can be used for measuring the angular velocity so as to judge the motion state of the equipment to be managed, and the acceleration sensor can be used for measuring the motion acceleration of the equipment to be managed.

The three-axis gyroscope can measure the angular velocity of movement along one axis or a plurality of axes, can form advantage complementation with the acceleration sensor, and can better track and capture the complete movement of the three-dimensional space of the equipment to be managed by combining the acceleration sensor and the three-axis gyroscope.

Therefore, the embodiment of the specification determines the motion state of the device to be managed by acquiring the angular velocity data and/or the acceleration data of the device to be managed and combining the angular velocity data and/or the acceleration data. If the angular velocity data and the acceleration data are both 0, the device to be managed is determined to be in a static state, and if any value in the angular velocity data or the acceleration data is not equal to 0, the device to be managed is determined to be in a non-static state.

The client determines that the electromagnetic lock is in a locking state according to the lock state data, and determines that the device to be managed is in a static state according to the angular velocity data and/or the acceleration data, and then determines that the device to be managed is successfully returned; and in the case that the electromagnetic lock is determined to be in the locked state according to the lock state data, and the device to be managed is determined to be in the non-static state according to the angular velocity data and/or the acceleration data, the device to be managed can be determined not to be successfully returned. In order to ensure the accuracy of the determination result, the charging state information can be further combined for verification.

The embodiment of the description determines the borrowing and returning information of the equipment to be managed by combining the acceleration data and/or the angular velocity data of the equipment to be managed, and is favorable for ensuring the accuracy of the generation result of the borrowing and returning information.

In specific implementation, in addition to determining whether the user successfully returns the device to be managed through the position information, the acceleration data and/or the angular velocity data, the determination may be performed by combining the device storage unit and bluetooth beacon data of the electromagnetic lock, and specifically may be implemented in the following manner:

Specifically, after the user successfully returns the device to be managed, the device to be managed is stored in the device storage unit, and therefore, in this case, the distance between the device to be managed and the device storage unit and the electromagnetic lock is short, the signal intensity of the bluetooth beacon sent by the device storage unit acquired by the device to be managed should be strong, and the signal intensity of the bluetooth beacon sent by the electromagnetic lock should be strong, so that when determining whether the user successfully returns the device to be managed, the first beacon data of the bluetooth beacon of the device storage unit acquired by the device to be managed and the second beacon data of the bluetooth beacon of the electromagnetic lock can be combined to make the determination result more accurate.

In the actual determination process, the first beacon data or the second beacon data may specifically be the signal strength of the bluetooth beacon. The client determines that the electromagnetic lock is in a locked state according to the lock state data, and determines that the device to be managed is successfully returned under the condition that the signal intensity of the device storage unit acquired by the device to be managed and/or the signal intensity of the Bluetooth signal of the electromagnetic lock are/is greater than a preset intensity threshold according to the first beacon data and/or the second beacon data; otherwise, it may be determined that the device to be managed is not successfully returned. In order to ensure the accuracy of the determination result, the charging state information can be further combined for verification.

The embodiment of the description determines the borrowing and returning information of the device to be managed by combining the device storage unit and the Bluetooth beacon data of the electromagnetic lock, and is favorable for ensuring the accuracy of the generation result of the borrowing and returning information.

In specific implementation, in addition to determining whether the user successfully returns the device to be managed through the position information, the acceleration data and/or the angular velocity data and the beacon data, the return result of the device to be managed is determined by combining the device to be managed and the charging state information of the device storage unit, and the method can be specifically implemented in the following manner:

Specifically, after the user puts the device to be managed into the device storage unit, a charging wire needs to be inserted into the device to be managed to ensure that the device to be managed enters the charging state, so that when the client generates the borrowing and returning information of the device to be managed, whether the device to be managed is successfully returned or not can be determined according to the charging state information of the device to be managed and the device storage unit. The charging state information of the device to be managed may specifically include a first time point at which the device to be managed starts to be charged through a charging line; the charging state information of the device storage unit may specifically include a second time point when the device storage unit starts to charge the device to be managed through the charging line. Therefore, the client can determine whether the device to be managed is successfully returned by determining the time difference between the first time point and the second time point.

The method comprises the steps that a client determines a time difference value between a first time point when the electromagnetic lock is determined to be in a locked state according to lock state data and a second time point when a device storage unit starts to charge the device to be managed, and determines that the device to be managed is successfully returned when the time difference value is less than a preset time threshold value; otherwise, it may be determined that the device to be managed is not successfully returned.

The embodiment of the description determines the borrowing and returning information of the device to be managed by combining the charging state information of the device to be managed and the device storage unit, and is favorable for ensuring the accuracy of the generation result of the borrowing and returning information.

In specific implementation, the charging state information may include a charging current in addition to a time point at which charging is started, so that whether the user successfully returns the device to be managed is determined by combining the charging current, which may specifically be implemented by:

besides the aforementioned position information, acceleration data and/or angular velocity data, beacon data, and charging state information, the determination may be performed in combination with acceleration data and/or angular velocity data of the device to be managed, which may specifically be implemented as follows:

Specifically, after the user puts the device to be managed into the device storage unit, a charging wire needs to be inserted into the device to be managed to ensure that the device to be managed enters the charging state, so that when the client generates the borrowing and returning information of the device to be managed, whether the device to be managed is successfully returned or not can be determined according to the charging state information of the device to be managed and the device storage unit. The charging state information of the device to be managed may specifically include a first charging current for charging the device to be managed through a charging line; the charging state information of the device storage unit may specifically include a second charging current for charging the device to be managed by the device storage unit through a charging line. Therefore, the client can determine whether the device to be managed is successfully returned by determining the time difference between the first charging current and the second charging current.

The client determines that the electromagnetic lock is in a locking state according to the lock state data, and determines that a first charging current of the equipment to be managed is the same as a second charging current for charging the equipment to be managed by the equipment storage unit, and then determines that the equipment to be managed is successfully returned; otherwise, it may be determined that the device to be managed is not successfully returned.

The following describes the device management method further by taking an application of the device management method provided in this specification in a code scanning device returning scenario as an example, with reference to fig. 3.

And 304, the face recognition terminal collects the face image of the user and carries out identity verification on the user based on the collection result.

In case the verification passes, step 306 is performed.

And step 306, the face recognition terminal sends an unlocking instruction to the electromagnetic lock.

Specifically, the electromagnetic lock responds to the unlocking instruction and performs an unlocking operation.

Step 308, the user opens the equipment management cabinet and places the code scanning equipment into any idle equipment storage unit in the equipment management cabinet.

Specifically, after the user puts the code scanning device into the device storage unit, the user needs to insert a charging wire into the device storage unit to scan the code scanning device, so as to charge the code scanning device.

And 310, acquiring an identification code corresponding to the equipment storage unit by the code scanning equipment, analyzing the identification code, and determining the position information of the equipment storage unit in the equipment management cabinet according to an analysis result.

In step 312, the code scanning device sends the first charging state information of the code scanning device, the device identifier of the code scanning device, and the location information to the cloud service platform.

In step 314, the cloud service platform sends the first charging state information, the device identifier of the code scanning device, and the position information to the face recognition terminal.

And step 316, the electromagnetic lock sends the lock state data of the equipment management cabinet to the face recognition terminal.

In step 318, the device storage unit sends the second charging state information of the device storage unit to the face recognition terminal.

And after the face recognition terminal receives the first charging state information, the equipment identifier of the code scanning equipment, the position information, the second charging state information and the lock state data, generating return information of the code scanning equipment based on the data.

The embodiment of the specification utilizes the equipment management cabinet to realize daily digital management of storage, getting, returning, charging and the like of the code scanning equipment, so that resource waste caused by loss of the code scanning equipment is avoided, and the utilization rate of the code scanning equipment is improved. In addition, the position sensing function of the equipment storage unit where the code scanning equipment is located is transferred to the code scanning equipment from the equipment management cabinet, so that the manufacturing cost of the equipment management cabinet is reduced; in addition, the image identification code corresponding to the target equipment storage unit is collected, so that the position information of the target storage unit in the equipment management cabinet is determined based on the image identification code, and the borrowing and returning information of the code scanning equipment is generated according to the position information and the equipment identification of the code scanning equipment, and the accuracy of the generation result of the borrowing and returning information is favorably ensured.
