Detailed Description

Embodiments of the present application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. The terminology used in the description of the embodiments of the application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments of the application only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.

Currently, users have more and more electronic devices, and many electronic devices have audio playing functions, for example: cell phones, tablets, computers, smart televisions, smart speakers, and the like. When a user uses a plurality of audio devices (i.e., electronic devices having audio playback functions) in the same environment, the audio devices may interfere with the user, for example: in a home scene, a user answers an incoming call when watching a television, and the conversation of the user can be influenced if the television volume is too large; in addition, the work and rest habits among family members are different, and the rest is affected mutually when the audio equipment is used. These can affect the user's device usage experience.

An alternative scheme is to detect the current state of the user, and when the user is detected to enter a talking or sleeping state, adjust the upper limit of the volume of other audio devices to a preset volume value so as to reduce the influence among the audio devices.

Considering that the control mode performs volume regulation and control on other audio devices, and may affect the device use experience of other users in the public space, the embodiment of the application provides another device control method, by classifying the devices, after the user enters a call or sleep state, different controls are performed on the devices according to the classification of the devices, so that the intelligence of device control is improved, the device use experience of the individual user is met as far as possible, and meanwhile, the requirements of collective users in the public space are met. A home scene will be described as an exemplary scene.

Fig. 1 is a schematic view of a home scenario provided in an embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 1, a home scenario 1000 may be divided into one or more areas, where one or more areas may include one or more audio devices, and the audio devices may be portable electronic devices (e.g., a mobile phone, a tablet, a wearable device, etc.) or non-portable electronic devices (e.g., smart home devices such as a smart speaker, a smart television, etc.). Other types of electronic devices may also be included in the home scene 1000, such as routers, smart lights, and the like.

For example, as shown in fig. 1, the home scene 1000 may be divided into seven areas: living room, primary lying, secondary lying, study room, bathroom, kitchen and corridor; the living room comprises a mobile phone 1001, a flat panel 1002, a smart watch 1003, a smart television 1004, a router 1005 and a smart sound box 1006; the primary sleeper includes an intelligent light 1007, the secondary sleeper includes an intelligent sound box 1008, and the study includes a computer 1009.

Each electronic device can perform data interaction with other electronic devices through the communication function of the electronic device. A user may control and/or manage other electronic devices through some of them (e.g., cell phones, tablets, etc.).

The electronic device can perform data interaction with other electronic devices through the cloud device, can also establish close-range communication connection with other electronic devices, and performs data interaction through the established close-range communication connection. Techniques for establishing a close range communication connection include, but are not limited to: wireless local area networks (wireless local area networks, WLAN) (e.g., wireless fidelity (wireless fidelity, wi-Fi) networks), bluetooth (BT) technology, ultra Wideband (UWB) technology, near field communication (near field communication, NFC) technology, infrared (IR) technology, general 2.4G/5G band wireless communication technology, and the like. The data interaction mode between the electronic devices through the short-range communication connection can be direct transmission between the devices or indirect transmission between the devices.

Taking three persons as an example, as shown in fig. 2, a home scenario 1000 includes a user a, a user B, and a user C. Taking the example of the user a, when the user a is talking or sleeping, if the user B and/or the user C is playing audio content using the audio device, the user a may be affected.

According to the device control method provided by the embodiment, when the target user behavior of a certain user A is detected, the electronic devices in the same environment can be controlled, the influence of the electronic devices on the user A is reduced, and the requirements of other users can be met while the device use experience of the user A is met. The target user behavior may be a user behavior that is easily interfered by environmental sound, such as a user entering a call state or a sleep state. The following describes the device control process in connection with a talk scenario and a sleep scenario.

Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a call scenario provided in the embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 3, where a user a, a user B, and a user C are in a living room, where the user a is using a tablet, the user B is watching a television, and the user C is playing a mobile phone. At this time, when the mobile phone a of the user a receives the incoming call (i.e. the call request), the voice of other electronic devices in the scene may affect the call process of the user a when the user a listens to the call. In this embodiment, other audio devices besides the receiving device may be controlled, so as to reduce the influence of these devices on the receiving of the call by the user and give consideration to the demands of other users. The following describes a specific flow of the device control.

Fig. 4 is a schematic flow chart of a device control method provided in the embodiment of the present application, and an execution subject of the method may be any electronic device in a home scene 1000, for example, a portable electronic device such as a mobile phone 1001 of a user, a smart watch 1003, and the like. The execution subject of the device control method may also be a designated electronic device in the home scene 1000, for example, the operation data of each audio device may be collected by the router 1005 in the home scene 1000, and the device control process may be performed by the router 1005 according to the collected device operation data. In connection with the scenario shown in fig. 3, in the embodiment of the present application, the mobile phone a owned by the user a is taken as an example for an execution subject.

Referring to fig. 4, the device control method provided in this embodiment may include the following steps:

s110, when the user is detected to enter a call state, acquiring a device list of the audio devices in the online state in the same environment.

In this embodiment, the mobile phone a may receive a call request or send out a call request, and when detecting the call request, it may consider that the user enters a call state; in order to save processing resources, the user may also be considered to enter a talk state when it is detected that a talk request is being put on, considering that the talk may not be put on. The call request may be a voice call request or a video call request by running a telephony application or an instant messaging type application.

As an optional implementation manner, after detecting that the user enters the call state, the mobile phone a may acquire, from the cloud device, a device list (simply referred to as an online device list) of an audio device in an online state in the home scene through the user account, and then select the online device list in the same environment, where the same environment may be in a target area where the mobile phone a is located.

As previously described, a user may control and/or manage some electronic devices (e.g., cell phones, tablets, etc.) in a scene. For example, a user may log into an application program on the mobile phone a for controlling and/or managing the electronic device through a user account, and control and/or manage the associated electronic device through the electronic device in the associated scene. Take the "Smart Life" application offered by Hua technology Co., ltd as an example for illustration. FIG. 4 illustrates an exemplary user interface of a "Smart Life" application.

As shown in fig. 5 (a), after the user opens the "smart life" application, the corresponding user interface 10 may include a scene name 101 (here, an exemplary scene name 101 is "home of a"). When the mobile phone a detects an operation that the user clicks the icon 102 located on the right side of the scene name 101, the application program may provide a "home name" option for the user to modify the scene name 101, and may also provide a "room management" option for the user to set rooms in the scene, such as adding rooms, deleting rooms, and changing room names.

Here, the room may be generated from a real room, for example, a room calculated after the user creates a grid map/point cloud map of the home scene 1000 in the "smart life" application. In other embodiments, the room is virtual, and is a virtual room that the user establishes according to his or her needs. Some of the relatively fixed location electronic devices in the home scene 1000 have location tags that are configurable by the user, with the electronic devices having the same location tags being in the same room.

When the user clicks the "more" icon 103, handset a may pop up more options such as "add device", "create scene", "share device" and "connect to three-party platform". Wherein, the option of adding equipment can be used for users to add and associate new electronic equipment; the 'create scene' option allows the user to create a new intelligent scene; the option of sharing the equipment can be used for a user to share the control right of the associated one or more electronic equipment to other users, so that the other users manage and/or control the shared one or more electronic equipment, thereby meeting the use requirement of multiple users; the "connect three party platform" option allows the user to associate accounts in other applications for managing electronic devices with the "Smart Life" application, thereby enabling the "Smart Life" application to manage more electronic devices.

The user may view the associated electronic device in the interface corresponding to the "home" icon 108, and fig. 5 (a) shows the interface corresponding to the "home" icon, where the "home" icon may be displayed in a selected state (where the selected example of the icon represents that the "home" icon is filled). In this interface, each electronic device in the home scene 1000 and associated with a "smart life" application will generate a card in which the user can view the device name, device status, and room in which it is located. For example, as shown in fig. 5 (a), the user associates a smart tv 1004 (corresponding to card 104), a router 1005 (corresponding to card 105), a sound box 1006 (corresponding to card 106), and a smart light 1007 (corresponding to card 107) in the scene.

The device state may include an on-line state and an off-line state, where the on-line state may refer to that the device is in an on-state and is in a WLAN or establishes a communication connection (such as a bluetooth connection) with the mobile phone a; the offline state may refer to the device being powered off, or not being in a WLAN or establishing a communication connection with handset a.

As shown in fig. 5 (a) and (b), the user may click on the my icon 109, open the my interface 20, log in to the account through the account center icon 201, exit the account, manage other services related to the account (such as cloud space services), etc.

The user can also establish a sharing group when sharing the devices, and share the associated electronic devices to other user accounts in the group. As shown in fig. 5 (B) and (c), the user may click on the my share icon 202 in the my interface 20, open the my share interface 30, view the established share group, and establish a new device share group, such as the established family group 301 shown in the figure, in which user a (corresponding to "a" in the group member) shares its associated electronic device with user B (corresponding to "a" in the group member).

It will be appreciated that the above description is only given by taking the control right that the user a shares the electronic device with the user B as an example, the user a may also be used as a sharee to accept the sharing of other users, and the corresponding card corresponding to the electronic device that the user a accepts the sharing may be displayed in the interface corresponding to the "home" icon 108. In addition, the sharing group may be embodied in other forms, for example, the group word is not displayed in the interface, but only the related information of the sharing members is displayed, and the user a and each sharing member can form a sharing group.

When the online device list is acquired, the online device list in the family scene can be acquired from the cloud device according to the account number of the electronic device login and the account numbers of other users in the sharing group corresponding to the device sharing service, and then the online device list in the same environment is selected from the cloud device.

In addition, the user can share other services such as cloud space to other user accounts, so that the user can enjoy more intelligent multi-device perception service. That is, the mobile phone a can obtain, from the cloud device, audio devices (simply referred to as online devices) in online states associated with all accounts in each sharing group where the mobile phone a is located; and then selects an online device (called a target online device) in the environment of the mobile phone a. The following is illustrative:

assume that user a logs in to the cloud space service and the "smart life" application of mobile phone a through account a, associates smart tv 1004 with speaker 1006 in the "smart life" application, and adds account B as a shared member of the family group, and user a logs in to tablet 1002 and smart watch 1003 through account a (as a system account). The user B logs in the cloud space service and the smart life application program of the mobile phone B through the account B, the sound box 1008 is associated in the smart life application program, and the shared member account a and the account C are added in the cloud space service. User C logs in to the cloud space service and the "smart life" application of the mobile phone C through account number C, does not associate any device in the "smart life" application, and also logs in to the computer 1009 through account number C. Assume that other electronic devices are online except for the computer 1009.

Then, the shared group in which account a is located includes two: family groups in "Smart Life" applications (including Account A and Account B), and sharing groups in cloud space services (including Account A, account B, and Account C). According to the two sharing groups, all accounts in the sharing group where the mobile phone a is located include three accounts in total: the mobile phone A can acquire all online devices associated under the three accounts from the cloud device, wherein the online devices associated with the account A comprise: cell-phone A, tablet 1002, audio amplifier 1006, intelligent wrist-watch 1003 and intelligent TV 1004, account number B associated online device includes: the mobile phone B and the audio box 1008, and the online equipment associated with the account number C includes: and a mobile phone C.

It can be appreciated that the target group adopted when the online device list is obtained from the cloud device is not limited to the shared group of the cloud space service and the "smart life" application, and may be a shared group/family group corresponding to other services.

In addition, in the case where the user establishes a plurality of groups, if the groups are marked with geographical information, the target group may be determined according to the location of the mobile phone a and the geographical information of each group. For example, the user a also associates an electronic device located in a company in the "smart life" application program, establishes a company group, and takes an account number of a certain colleague of the company as a sharing member of the group to share the electronic device of the company. The user a may mark geographical information for the established home group and company group, respectively, or the mobile phone a may automatically generate geographical information for each group according to the location of the electronic device shared in the group. When determining the target group, the mobile phone a may use the group (i.e., the home group) matching the location of the mobile phone a as the target group.

As another alternative, handset a may also obtain a list of devices connected to Wi-Fi from the router and then select an online device (i.e., the target online device) from the same environment. The method is simple, and the target online equipment can be acquired quickly; under the condition of diversified connection modes, the mode of acquiring the online equipment from the cloud equipment can acquire more comprehensive target online equipment.

In this embodiment, the target online device other than the mobile phone a may be an electronic device whose distance from the mobile phone a is smaller than a preset distance, or an electronic device connected to the mobile phone a in the same Wi-Fi network, where the Wi-Fi signal strength of the Wi-Fi signal is greater than a preset threshold, or an electronic device in the same room as the mobile phone a, or an electronic device capable of establishing close-range communication connection with the mobile phone a. The target online device may also be determined in other manners, and the specific determination manner is not particularly limited in this embodiment.

The mobile phone a may determine the distance with other electronic devices by using technologies such as global satellite positioning system (global positioning system, GPS) positioning, bluetooth ranging or UWB ranging, and the value of the preset distance may be set according to needs, for example, 5 meters. In addition, handset a may obtain Wi-Fi signal strengths from the router for connection to various electronic devices in the Wi-Fi network. For some electronic devices (such as smart televisions) with relatively fixed positions, the mobile phone A can acquire a room where the device is located from a smart life application program; for some electronic devices with unfixed locations, the mobile phone a may determine the room in which the device is located using GPS positioning, bluetooth positioning, UWB positioning, or other techniques.

In this embodiment, for different target user behaviors, the same environment may be determined in the same manner, or the same environment may be determined in different manners. The present embodiment is exemplified by the case of determining the same environment in different manners.

Taking the example that the same environment refers to the same room (i.e. the room where the mobile phone a is located) in the call scene, in this embodiment, after the mobile phone a detects that the user enters the call state, as described above, the cloud device may obtain online devices associated with each account in the shared group where the mobile phone a is located: cell phone a, tablet 1002, smart watch 1003, smart tv 1004, speaker 1006, speaker 1008, cell phone B, and cell phone C. Then, the target online device in the same room (namely, the room in which the mobile phone A is located: living room) can be selected from the following: cell phone a, tablet 1002, smart watch 1003, smart tv 1004, speaker 1006, cell phone B, and cell phone C.

S120, judging whether a person exists in the same environment, and if not, executing a step S130; if so, step S140 is performed.

The mobile phone A can judge whether people exist in the same environment or not besides determining the target online equipment, and if not, the mobile phone A can control all the target online equipment except the answering equipment to reduce the volume; if someone is present, the electronic device may be controlled differently depending on the classification of the electronic device.

In the specific judgment, the mobile phone A can determine whether people exist in the surrounding environment through one or more devices of an intelligent door lock, a router, an internal or external camera, a human body sensor and the like. The mobile phone A can acquire personnel information from an intelligent door lock, acquire equipment information of electronic equipment connected to the same Wi-Fi from a router, and acquire personnel information in the surrounding environment from a camera and a human body sensor; the mobile phone a can determine whether a person exists in the environment according to one or more kinds of information.

S130, controlling all devices except the answering device in the device list to reduce the volume.

Specifically, for each target online device other than the answering device, when the volume of the device exceeds the preset volume value, the volume of the device may be adjusted to the preset volume value, or other volume control manners may be adopted to perform device control, which is not limited in this embodiment.

And S140, performing equipment control according to the classification of each equipment in the equipment list.

For the situation that people exist in the same environment, the mobile phone A can classify the target online equipment, and different control modes can be adopted for different classified target online equipment.

In this embodiment, the electronic devices may be classified into the following three types according to the device sharing rate of the electronic devices: private devices, low-sharing-rate public devices (simply referred to as low-sharing devices), high-sharing-rate public devices (simply referred to as high-sharing devices).

Wherein the sharing rates of the private device, the low sharing device, and the high sharing device are sequentially increased.

It will be appreciated that electronic devices may be categorized into other numbers of categories, such as simply two categories of personal devices and common devices, or more, and that the present embodiment is exemplified by a total of three categories.

In this embodiment, the classification method of the electronic device includes, but is not limited to, the following three ways:

first, classification is based on device type. Devices that are typically used exclusively by one person, such as cell phones and smart watches, may be determined to be private devices, such as shown in fig. 6; the method comprises the steps that devices with relatively low sharing rate, such as a tablet, a computer and the like, which can be used by multiple persons are determined to be low sharing devices; the intelligent television, the intelligent sound box and the like can be used by multiple persons, and the equipment with relatively high sharing rate is determined to be high sharing equipment. This embodiment is followed by an exemplary description taking this classification method as an example.

And secondly, classifying according to the account registered by the electronic equipment, namely marking the account, wherein the classification of the electronic equipment is the classification to which the registered account belongs. For example, the tablet, when logging in account number 1, belongs to a low-sharing device; when logging in account number 2, it belongs to a private device.

Thirdly, classifying according to the account switching frequency of the electronic equipment. Specifically, the account switching frequency can be determined according to the account switching frequency of the electronic device in a preset time period, and when the account switching frequency is smaller than a first-time threshold value in specific implementation, the electronic device can be considered to belong to private equipment; when the number of times of account switching is greater than or equal to a first time threshold value and less than a second time threshold value, the electronic equipment can be considered to belong to low-sharing equipment; when the number of times of account switching is greater than or equal to the second number of times threshold, the electronic device can be considered to belong to a high-sharing device. The first time threshold and the second time threshold may be set according to actual needs, for example, the first time threshold may be two times, and the second time threshold may be four times.

Considering that the user can answer the call on the private device, the user can answer the call on a low-sharing device (such as a tablet) or a strong-sharing device (such as a smart television), for example, the user A can answer the call on the mobile phone A, can answer the call on the tablet, and can answer the call on the smart television. In this embodiment, different control modes may be adopted for different answering devices.

As shown in fig. 7, in the case where the target user behavior is that the user enters a call state, when device control is specifically performed, it may be determined that the device class of the answering device (step S141), and if the answering device belongs to a private device or a low-sharing device, it may be controlled to reduce the volume of private devices and low-sharing devices of the same account as the answering device (i.e., private devices and low-sharing devices of the same account as the answering device) in the device list (step S142). If the answering device belongs to the high sharing device, the private device with the same account as the answering device, the low sharing device with the same account, and the high sharing device except the answering device in the device list can be controlled to reduce the volume (step S143).

For example, as known from the first classification method, in the online device in the room (i.e. the same environment) where the user a is located, the private device includes: cell phone a, smart watch 1003 (same account as cell phone a), cell phone B and cell phone C; the low-sharing device includes: tablet 1002 (same account as handset a); the high-sharing device includes: smart tv 1004 and audio box 1006. If the user A answers the call on the mobile phone A, the flat 1002 and the intelligent watch 1003 can be controlled to reduce the volume, and the volume of the mobile phone B, the mobile phone C, the intelligent television 1004 and the voice box 1006 is kept unchanged; if the user A answers the call on the tablet 1002, the mobile phone A and the intelligent watch 1003 can be controlled to reduce the volume, and the volume of the mobile phone B, the mobile phone C, the intelligent television 1004 and the voice box 1006 is kept unchanged; if user A listens to a call on smart TV 1004, then handset A, tablet 1002, smart watch 1003 and speaker 1006 can be controlled to reduce the volume, and handset B and handset C remain unchanged.

In this embodiment, when a user selects to answer a call on a private device or a low-sharing device, the private device and the low-sharing device with the same account are controlled to reduce the volume, so that the influence of the electronic devices on the answering device can be reduced; for private equipment with different accounts, low sharing equipment with different accounts and all high sharing equipment (namely high sharing equipment with the same account and different accounts), volume control is not carried out, namely the volume is kept unchanged, so that experience of other users in public space can be enhanced.

When a user selects to answer a call on high-sharing equipment, the call is indicated to be a call behavior with one public attribute, and the call can be listened by other users in public space, at the moment, besides private equipment and low-sharing equipment of the same account, the high-sharing equipment except the answering equipment is controlled to reduce the volume, so that the influence of other electronic equipment on the answering equipment can be further reduced, and the use experience of each user participating in the call is improved; in addition, considering personal demands of other users, for private equipment and low-sharing equipment with different accounts, volume control is not performed, namely the volume is kept unchanged, so that equipment using experience of the users in public space can be enhanced.

The above describes the device control process in the call scenario, and the following describes the device control process in the sleep scenario.

Fig. 8 is a schematic diagram of a sleeping scenario provided in the embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 8, in which a user a sleeps in a primary sleeping position, a user B listens to music in a secondary sleeping position, and a user C watches television in a living room. In view of this situation, in this embodiment, the device control method provided in the embodiment of the present application may control electronic devices in the same environment, reduce the sleep influence of these electronic devices on the user a, and consider the needs of other users. The following describes a specific flow of the device control.

Fig. 9 is a schematic flow chart of another method for controlling a device, similar to the method shown in fig. 4, where the execution subject of the method may be any electronic device or a designated electronic device in a home scenario, and in this embodiment, the execution subject is taken as an example of a mobile phone a to perform an exemplary description.

Referring to fig. 9, the device control method provided in the present embodiment may include the following steps:

s210, after detecting that a user enters a sleep state, acquiring a device list in an online state in the same environment.

The mobile phone a may detect the sleep state of the user throughout the day, or may use a period from a first time of the evening to a second time of the next day as a detection period, and perform sleep detection in the detection period, so as to save energy consumption.

During specific detection, sleep detection can be performed according to the state information of the mobile phone A, information can be acquired from other electronic equipment, and the sleep detection is performed by combining the input information of the other electronic equipment, so that the accuracy of a detection result is improved. Wherein the condition that the mobile phone a determines that the user a falls asleep includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following conditions: the current time is in a sleep time period preset by a system or set by a user; the user closes the window curtains, doors and/or lights in the main sleeper; the smart wearable device (e.g., smart watch 1003) detects that user a falls asleep based on user a's heart rate, movement information, and/or brain information; the mobile phone A turns off the screen at night and starts to charge; the mobile phone A starts a do not disturb mode or a flight mode; an intelligent sound box (not shown) in the main sleeping room starts to play sleep-aiding audio; the user adjusts the air cleaner or the temperature and humidity control apparatus (not shown) to a sleep mode; the user issues an instruction indicating to fall asleep: "I sleep", "evening", "turn off the lights", "play sleep aiding music", etc.

The manner of acquiring the online device list in the same environment by the mobile phone a is similar to that in step S110, and will not be described here again.

Taking the example that the same environment refers to the same house (i.e. the house where the mobile phone a is located) in the sleep scene, in this embodiment, after the mobile phone a of the user a detects that the user enters the sleep state, as described above, the online devices associated with each account in the shared group where the mobile phone a is located may be obtained from the cloud device: cell phone a, tablet 1002, smart watch 1003, smart tv 1004, speaker 1006, speaker 1008, cell phone B, and cell phone C. And then, target online equipment of the same house (namely the whole home environment where the mobile phone A is located) can be selected from the target online equipment, and the target online equipment is all the online equipment obtained from the cloud equipment.

S220, judging whether a person exists in the same environment, and if not, executing a step S230; if so, step S240 is performed.

The mobile phone A can judge whether people exist in the same environment or not except for determining target online equipment (namely online equipment in the same environment), and if not, can control all the target online equipment to reduce the volume; if someone is present, the electronic device may be controlled differently depending on the classification of the electronic device.

The method for determining whether a person exists is similar to that in step S120, and will not be described here.

S230, controlling all devices in the device list to reduce the volume.

Specifically, for each target online device, the volume control may be performed, and the specific control process may be referred to the description related to step S130, which is not repeated herein.

S240, controlling the mobile phone A, private equipment with the same account number as the mobile phone A and low sharing equipment with the same account number in the equipment list to reduce the volume, and sending reminding messages by the private equipment with the different account number, the low sharing equipment with the different account number and the high sharing equipment with the different account number.

For the situation that people exist in the same environment, the mobile phone A can classify the target online equipment, and different control modes can be adopted for different classified target online equipment. The device classification method may be referred to the related description in step S140, and will not be described herein.

Taking the same environment as the same house as an example, based on the first classification method, the private device in the obtained online device with the same environment comprises: cell phone a, smart watch 1003 (same account as cell phone a), cell phone B and cell phone C; the low-sharing device includes: tablet 1002 (same account as handset a); the high-sharing device includes: smart tv 1004, speaker 1006 and audio box 1008. After detecting that the user a falls asleep, the mobile phone a, the tablet 1002 and the smart watch 1003 can be controlled to reduce the volume, and the mobile phone B, the mobile phone C, the smart television 1004, the sound box 1006 and the audio box 1008 are controlled to send out reminding messages.

The reminding message sent by the controlled electronic device can comprise a text message and/or a voice message, for example, the reminding message can be a text message for a mobile phone and a tablet; for smart televisions, text messages and voice messages may be included; for smart speakers and smart watches, it may be a voice message. The message content of the reminding message can be set according to the needs, for example, the message content can be: "someone falls asleep, you can turn down the volume.

Similar to a call scene, the volume of the mobile phone A, the private equipment with the same account number as the mobile phone A and the low-sharing equipment with the same account number as the mobile phone A is controlled to be reduced, so that the sleeping influence of the electronic equipment on the user A can be reduced; for private equipment with a different account number (i.e. different from the account number logged in by the mobile phone A), low-sharing equipment with the different account number and all high-sharing equipment, volume control can be omitted, namely the volume is kept unchanged, so that experience of other users in a public space can be enhanced; in order to improve the intelligence, so as to further improve the equipment use experience of the user, for private equipment with a non-same account, low-sharing equipment with a non-same account and high-sharing equipment with a non-same account, the equipment can be controlled to send out reminding messages so as to remind the user using the equipment that the equipment can keep low volume, so that rest of other people is not influenced.

In this embodiment, when the user is detected to exit from the call state or the sleep state, the target online device with the reduced volume may be restored to the volume before the reduction.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the above embodiments are exemplary and not intended to limit the present application. The order of execution of one or more of the above steps may be adjusted, or optionally combined, as the case may be, to obtain one or more other embodiments, for example, the step of determining whether a person exists in the same environment may be performed before acquiring a list of devices in the same environment that are online, or both steps may be performed simultaneously. Those skilled in the art can select any combination from the above steps according to the need, and all the steps do not depart from the spirit of the scheme of the present application.

According to the equipment control method, when the user is detected to enter a call state or a sleep state, the online equipment in the same environment can be obtained, different volume control modes are carried out on the equipment according to the classification of the online equipment, so that the intelligence of equipment control can be improved, and the equipment use experience of the individual user is improved while the equipment use experience of the collective user in the public space is improved.
