It is also possible to perform image acquisition simultaneously with an operating frequency of the image acquisition device below a threshold for the number of pixels and below a frequency threshold, under the first configuration parameter.

Fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a function control method according to still another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in fig. 2, the function control method includes the following steps.

In step S201, based on the full-time operation sensor operating with the first configuration parameter, the application scenario of the terminal is determined as the application scenario for performing the user behavior operation detection.

In step S202, if the user behavior operation is not detected, the full-time operation sensor operating with the first configuration parameter is controlled to perform the user behavior operation detection.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the terminal is provided with an image acquisition device for acquiring images based on the full-time working sensor, the full-time working sensor is used for monitoring the external environment of the terminal in real time, and the terminal is controlled according to the monitored external environment. When the application scene of the terminal is determined, the full-time working sensor is set to operate according to the first configuration parameter, and under the condition that the full-time working sensor operates according to the first configuration parameter, the number of pixels of an image acquired by the image acquisition device is lower than a pixel number threshold value, namely, a pixel part of the image acquisition device to be subjected to image acquisition is started for image acquisition. It is also possible to set the detection frequency of the full-time operation sensor to be lower than the frequency threshold, i.e. to perform image acquisition at a lower detection frequency, or to perform image acquisition at the same time at an operation frequency of the image acquisition device which is lower than the threshold of the number of pixels and lower than the frequency threshold. And determining the application scene of the terminal as the application scene for detecting the user behavior operation based on the full-time working sensor operated by the first configuration parameter. The user behavior operation detection may be, for example, human eye gaze detection, gesture detection, or the like when the user operates the user terminal. In the process of using the terminal, an image acquisition device which acquires images based on a full-time working sensor is used for detecting user behavior operation. The user behavior operation can be divided into different stages, and for the user behavior operation in different stages, the user behavior operation is detected by adopting full-time working sensors with different parameter configurations. For example, the different phases of the user behavior operation may be a phase including no detection of the user behavior operation, a phase in which the user performs the behavior operation, and the like, wherein the phases in which the user behavior operation is not detected include a phase in which the user is not detected, a phase in which the user is detected and is not performing the behavior operation, and a phase in which the user is detected and is initially performing the behavior operation. For example, the gesture detection of the user is performed based on a full-time working sensor, a scene where the user does not exist before the terminal is detected in a stage where the user is not detected, the image acquisition device acquires an image before the terminal by using a low detection frequency and opening partial pixels of the image acquisition device, and whether the image includes a feature of a 'person' is judged according to the acquired image. The stage of detecting the user and performing no behavior operation may correspond to a stage of detecting that the user exists before the terminal through the full-time sensor, but the user does not perform a preset behavior operation for controlling the terminal. The image acquisition device acquires an image in front of the terminal according to the parameter configuration of the lower detection frequency and the opening part of pixels, and judges whether the image comprises the characteristics of a person or not according to the acquired image, namely, the existence of a user is detected. The image acquisition device is still configured with parameters for detecting people, acquires an image in front of the terminal, judges whether a user is about to perform preset gestures and action operations according to action amplitude and the like of an object included in the image, detects that the user does not perform the gesture operations or does not perform the gesture operations of a preset control terminal, and determines that the user is detected and is in a stage of not performing the action operations. The stage of detecting the user and performing the behavior operation initially may be an initial stage of performing a preset behavior operation for controlling the terminal by the user corresponding to the presence of the user in front of the terminal detected by the full-time sensor. The image acquisition device acquires an image in front of the terminal according to the parameter configuration of the lower detection frequency and the opening part of pixels, and judges whether the image comprises the characteristics of a person or not according to the acquired image, namely the existence of a user is detected. The image acquisition device still configures parameters for human detection to acquire images in front of the terminal, judges that the user executes gesture operation of the preset control terminal according to action amplitude and the like of an object in the images, and determines that the user is detected and is in a stage of initially executing behavior operation. The terminal is currently in a stage of not detecting the user behavior operation, namely the terminal is in a stage of not detecting the user, detects the user and is in a stage of not executing the behavior operation, and detects the user and is in a stage of initially executing the behavior operation, the full-time working sensor which runs by the first configuration parameters is controlled to detect the user behavior operation, and the use power consumption of the full-time working sensor is reduced.

According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the terminal is provided with the image acquisition device for acquiring images based on the full-time working sensor, when the full-time working sensor performs user behavior operation detection by using the first configuration parameter, if the full-time working sensor is at the stage of not detecting the user behavior operation, the full-time working sensor operating by using the first configuration parameter is controlled to perform user behavior operation detection, so that different parameter configurations are adopted for detection in stages in the application process of the full-time working sensor, and the power consumption is saved.

Fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a function control method according to still another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in fig. 3, the function control method includes the following steps.

In step S301, based on the full-time operation sensor operating with the first configuration parameter, the application scenario of the terminal is determined as the application scenario for performing the user behavior operation detection.

In step S302, if it is detected that the current stage is performing behavior operation, the full-time operation sensor operating with the second configuration parameter is controlled to perform user behavior operation detection.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the terminal is provided with an image acquisition device for acquiring images based on the full-time working sensor, and the application scene of the terminal is determined to be the application scene for detecting the user behavior operation based on the full-time working sensor operating according to the first configuration parameter. And under the condition that the full-time working sensor operates according to the first configuration parameter, correspondingly starting a pixel part of an image acquisition device for image acquisition, or acquiring an image by adopting a detection frequency lower than a frequency threshold value. In the process of using the terminal, the user behavior operation detection is carried out by using the image acquisition device which acquires images based on the full-time working sensor, for example, human eye gaze detection, gesture detection and the like when the user operates the terminal. The different phases of the user behavior operation may be a phase including no detection of the user behavior operation, a phase in which the user performs the behavior operation, and the like, wherein the phases in which the user behavior operation is not detected include a phase in which the user is not detected, a phase in which the user is detected and is not performing the behavior operation, and a phase in which the user is detected and is initially performing the behavior operation.

For example, the user gesture detection is performed based on the full-time operation sensor, the stage where the user is not detected may correspond to a stage where the user does not exist before the terminal, and the stage where the user is detected and the behavior operation is not performed may correspond to a stage where the user is detected to exist before the terminal through the full-time sensor, but the user does not perform the preset behavior operation for controlling the terminal. The stage of detecting the user and performing the behavior operation initially may be an initial stage of performing a preset behavior operation for controlling the terminal by the user corresponding to the presence of the user in front of the terminal detected by the full-time sensor. That is, the stage in which the user behavior operation is not detected may be implemented by a full-time operation sensor operating with the first configuration parameter, the number of pixels of the image acquired by the image acquisition device is lower than a pixel number threshold, and/or the operation frequency lower than a frequency threshold is used to perform image acquisition, and whether the user exists in the image is determined according to the acquired image. And if the user is detected to exist, judging whether the user executes the gesture operation or not or whether the gesture operation executed by the user is the preset gesture operation or not by using the same parameter configuration of the full-time working sensor. And if the action amplitude of the gesture operation of the user is detected to meet the set threshold value, determining that the user is in a stage of initially executing behavior operation. After the user is in the stage of initially executing the behavior operation, the user is about to perform the gesture operation, that is, the user enters the stage of executing the behavior operation in the next stage. When a user executes a behavior operation, the full-time working sensor running with the second configuration parameter is controlled to detect the user behavior operation, for example, a gesture or other set actions are detected, and under the condition that the full-time working sensor running with the second configuration parameter detects the user behavior operation, the pixel number of an image acquired by the image acquisition device is the maximum pixel number capable of being acquired by the image acquisition device, and/or the working frequency of the full-time working sensor is higher than a frequency threshold value, so that the image acquisition progress is improved, a full-detail picture is acquired, the detection frequency is improved, the sensitivity degree of the action detection is improved, and the terminal is controlled according to the user behavior operation detection.

According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the terminal is provided with an image acquisition device for acquiring images based on a full-time working sensor, the full-time working sensor performs user behavior operation detection according to a first configuration parameter, if the full-time working sensor is currently in a stage where the user behavior operation is not detected, the full-time working sensor running according to the first configuration parameter is controlled to perform the user behavior operation detection, if the full-time working sensor running according to a second configuration parameter is detected to be currently in a stage where the behavior operation is executed, the full-time working sensor running according to the second configuration parameter is controlled to perform the user behavior operation detection, the second configuration parameter is higher than the first configuration parameter, the detection is performed by adopting different parameter configurations in stages in the application process of the full-time working sensor, the detection precision and the sensitivity are met, and meanwhile, the standby power consumption is effectively reduced.

Fig. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a function control method according to still another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the function control method including the following steps, as shown in fig. 4.

In step S401, in response to determining that the ambient light level of the terminal is lower than a preset ambient light level threshold based on the full-time operation sensor operating with the first configuration parameter, determining the application scene of the terminal as an application scene for performing pocket mode detection of the terminal.

In step S402, a target image in the terminal display screen orientation direction is captured based on the full time operation sensor operating at the first configuration parameter.

In step S403, if the eye-gaze state is detected based on the target image, the control terminal exits the pocket mode.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the terminal is provided with an image acquisition device for image acquisition based on the full-time working sensor, and the full-time working sensor correspondingly turns on a pixel part of the image acquisition device for image acquisition under the condition of operating with the first configuration parameter, or performs image acquisition by adopting a detection frequency lower than a frequency threshold. And determining the application scene of the terminal as the application scene for carrying out the pocket mode detection of the terminal based on the full-time working sensor which operates by the first configuration parameter. The pocket mode is widely applied to the terminal, when the terminal is in the pocket mode by the equipment, namely the terminal is in a scene in a pocket of a user, the terminal cannot be on when a new message is received, and the phenomenon that mistaken touch is caused by contact of a body or other parts in the pocket is avoided. When the terminal is determined to be in the pocket mode, a front distance sensor may be disposed at the terminal, and when the distance sensor detects that the distance between the terminal and an object to be detected (pocket) is smaller than a set distance, the terminal is determined to be in the pocket of the user according to the distance, and the relevant operation that the terminal is in the pocket mode is performed.

It can be understood that when the terminal is in the pocket of the user, the brightness of the terminal is much lower than the brightness of the terminal in other environments, that is, the terminal determines that the ambient light brightness of the terminal is lower than the preset ambient light brightness threshold based on the full-time operation sensor operating with the first configuration parameter, and determines that the application scene of the terminal is the application scene for performing the pocket mode detection of the terminal. Namely, with the lower configuration of the full-time working sensor, when the current ambient light brightness of the terminal is detected to be lower than the preset ambient light brightness threshold, the judgment of whether the terminal is in the pocket mode is started. The image acquisition device still uses a full-time working sensor operated by the first configuration parameter to acquire a target image in the direction of the display screen of the terminal, and based on the target image, image identification, feature detection and the like are carried out to determine that the human face is detected and determine that the human face is in a human eye watching state, and at the moment, the terminal is controlled to exit from a pocket mode for a user to use the terminal in a low-brightness use scene. It can be understood that the image capturing device, operating with the first configuration parameter, captures the target image in the direction of the terminal display screen, and controls the terminal to maintain the pocket mode based on the target image in order to detect that the target image contains a human face or not detect the gaze state of human eyes in the target image, and at this time, it is highly likely that the user uses the usage scene of the terminal at a lower brightness. It is also understood that when the terminal is in a dark environment with low brightness, it may include that the current ambient light brightness of the terminal is lower than the preset ambient light brightness threshold, and the user is not in a state of looking at the terminal, i.e. the state of looking at the terminal by the eyes of the user is not detected, however, the terminal is not in a pocket. The distance sensor set through the terminal detects that the distance from the terminal to a measured object is smaller than a set distance, and the full-time working sensor operates based on a first configuration parameter, a target image on the orientation direction of a display screen of the acquisition terminal is based on a target image, and when a human eye gazing state is detected in the target image, the control terminal keeps a pocket mode, so that a judgment result of the pocket mode is more accurate.

According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the terminal is provided with the image acquisition device for acquiring images based on the full-time working sensor, the full-time working sensor determines that the ambient light brightness of the terminal is lower than a preset ambient light brightness threshold value according to the first configuration parameter, pocket mode detection of the terminal is carried out, the full-time working sensor still runs based on the first configuration parameter, a target image in the direction of the display screen of the terminal is acquired, if a human eye watching state is detected based on the target image, the terminal is controlled to exit from the pocket mode, the characteristics of light detection and dynamic capture of the full-time working sensor can be fully exerted, pocket mode detection of the terminal is achieved, and cost is not additionally increased.

Fig. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a function control method according to still another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in fig. 5, the function control method includes the following steps.

In step S501, an application scene of the terminal is determined as an application scene for detecting the ambient light brightness of the terminal based on the full-time operation sensor operating with the first configuration parameter.

In step S502, the control terminal performs screen brightness adjustment based on the detection result of the ambient light brightness detection.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal is installed with an image acquisition device that performs image acquisition based on a full-time working sensor, and under the condition that the full-time working sensor operates according to the first configuration parameter, a pixel portion of the image acquisition device that will perform image acquisition is correspondingly turned on, or image acquisition is performed by using a detection frequency lower than a frequency threshold. The theoretical power consumption of the full-time working sensor is less than 1mW, the light intensity detection range can be realized within the range of 3-10000 Lux, and the ambient light detection requirement in the use of a terminal is met. The real-time detection of the ambient light brightness of the terminal may be performed based on a full-time operation sensor operating with the first configuration parameter, the control terminal may perform screen brightness adjustment based on a detection result of the ambient light brightness detection, or perform other related adjustments with respect to the ambient light brightness detection result. The environment light detection sensor can be arranged in the terminal instead of the terminal, extra cost is not required to be added, and the power consumption is low.
