Detailed Description

The following description of the embodiments of the present application will be made clearly and fully with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which it is evident that the embodiments described are only some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments, which can be made by one of ordinary skill in the art without undue burden from the present disclosure, are within the scope of the present disclosure.

Referring to fig. 1, a flowchart of a control method according to an embodiment of the present application is shown, and the method may be applied to an electronic device having a target component, such as a notebook or a server having a heat dissipation component. The technical scheme in the embodiment is mainly used for reducing the operation complexity when the component mode is switched.

Specifically, the method in this embodiment may include the following steps:

step 101: the electronic device collects first information.

Wherein the first information may include any one or more of the following:

information characterizing whether the electronic device is connected with an audio output device;

information characterizing a device type of an audio output device to which the electronic apparatus is connected;

information representing whether the current output volume of an audio output device connected with the electronic equipment meets output operation conditions;

information representing whether the volume of target sound collected by an audio collection component in electronic equipment meets collection operation conditions or not;

and information representing whether the optical information corresponding to the electronic equipment meets the control condition.

Specifically, in this embodiment, the first information may be collected by a collection component in the electronic device.

For example, the acquisition component may be an information acquisition interface in the electronic device, where the information acquisition interface is connected to a connection interface of the audio output component, so as to be capable of monitoring whether the electronic device is connected with an audio output device, detecting a device type of the audio output device, and detecting a current output volume of the audio output device;

the acquisition component can be an audio acquisition component in the electronic equipment, and the audio acquisition component is used for acquiring target sound around the electronic equipment, such as a microphone matched with a loudspeaker and the like;

the collecting component can be an optical collecting component in the electronic equipment, and the optical collecting component is used for collecting optical information corresponding to the electronic equipment, such as an optical sensor capable of collecting ambient light temperature and ambient light brightness;

step 102: and controlling the target component of the electronic device to switch from the first mode to the second mode at least according to the first information.

Wherein the target component is configured to perform a target function and generate sound, the target function being different from the sound generation. That is, the target component is capable of achieving the target function, and the target component generates sound when achieving the target function.

In one implementation, the target component may be a heat dissipating component that generates sound while performing a heat dissipating function for the electronic device. For example, the heat dissipation component is a fan, and the fan generates sound when rotating to dissipate heat of the electronic equipment through the fan blades; for another example, the heat dissipation assembly is a water pump, and the water pump can make the water flow radiate the electronic equipment through the motor, and the motor can generate sound, and the like.

It should be noted that, the target component in the first mode can generate a first sound, and the target component in the second mode can generate a second sound, and the first sound is different from the second sound. Specific: the first sound generated by the target component when implementing the target function in the first mode is different from the second sound generated by the target component when implementing the target function in the second mode.

Wherein, the first sound is different from the second sound, specifically: the volume of the first sound is different from the volume of the second sound. Therefore, in this embodiment, the mode of the target component is switched according to the first information, so that the sound volume generated by the target component when the target function is implemented changes, for example, becomes larger or smaller.

According to the above technical scheme, in the control method provided by the first embodiment of the present application, the first information is collected on the electronic device, and then the target component for executing the target function and generating the sound in the electronic device is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode according to at least the first information, where the first sound generated by the target component in the first mode is different from the second sound generated by the target component in the second mode. Therefore, in the embodiment, the mode control of the target component is realized through the acquisition of the first information, and the condition of manually switching modes is avoided, so that the operation complexity for realizing the mode control is reduced.

In one implementation, the target component performs the heat dissipation function with a first parameter in a first mode and with a second parameter in a second mode. The first parameter is different from the second parameter such that the volume of the first sound is different from the volume of the second sound.

Taking the target assembly as a fan as an example, the first parameter is a first rotating speed parameter of the fan, the second parameter is a second rotating speed parameter of the fan, and the second rotating speed parameter is different from the first rotating speed parameter, so that the fan controls the fan blades to rotate according to the different rotating speed parameters, and different sound volumes can be generated while different heat dissipation effects are realized by the fan.

Taking the target assembly as a water pump as an example, the first parameter is a first motor operation parameter of the water pump, the second parameter is a second motor operation parameter of the water pump, and the first motor operation parameter is different from the second motor operation parameter. Therefore, the water pump controls the motor to operate according to different motor operation parameters, so that the water pump can generate sounds with different volumes while realizing different heat dissipation effects through different flow rates of water flows.

Therefore, in this embodiment, the target component may be controlled to switch between different modes by collecting the first information, so that the target component may achieve different heat dissipation effects with different parameters, and at the same time, the target component may generate sounds with different volumes.

In one implementation, when the target component of the electronic device is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode according to at least the first information in step 102, the following may be specifically implemented:

if the first information at least characterizes that the electronic device is connected with the audio output device, the target component of the electronic device is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode.

Specifically, in step 102, it is determined that the content represented by the first information represents that the electronic device is connected to the audio output device, the target component is switched from the first mode to the second mode, and if the electronic device is not connected to the audio output device, the target component is maintained in the first mode.

For example, taking an electronic device as a notebook, in this embodiment, information about whether an audio output device such as an earphone or a sound box is connected to the notebook is collected, that is, first information, so that when the first information characterizes that the notebook is connected to the earphone or the sound box, a fan in the notebook is controlled to switch from a first mode to a second mode, thereby changing a heat dissipation effect of the fan on the notebook, and changing sound volume generated by the fan.

Further, in step 102, if the first information at least indicates that the electronic device is connected to the audio output apparatus, the target component of the electronic device is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode, which may be the following situations:

controlling a target component of the electronic device to switch from a first mode to a second mode when the first information at least characterizes the audio output device as a first device type, wherein the volume of the second sound is larger than that of the first sound;

and controlling the target component of the electronic equipment to switch from the first mode to the second mode when the first information at least indicates that the audio output device is of the second device type, wherein the volume of the second sound is smaller than that of the first sound.

Based on this, in the present embodiment, the control target component may be switched from the current mode to a mode in which the volume of sound is large, or the control target component may be switched from the current mode to a mode in which the volume of sound is small, depending on the device type of the audio output device.

Specifically, in this embodiment, the device type of the audio output device may be determined by collecting device parameters of the audio output device connected to the electronic device and analyzing the device parameters. For example, in this embodiment, the driver in the electronic device detects the device parameter of the audio output device, so as to analyze that the audio output device is a wireless device or a wired device, and analyze that the audio output device is a first device type device or a second device type device.

In one implementation, an audio output component is configured in an electronic device, such as a speaker in a notebook. Based on this, the first device type is a type in which the maximum output volume is greater than that of an audio output component in the electronic apparatus, and the second device type is a type in which the maximum output volume is less than that of the audio output component. For example, the first device type is a speaker type and the second device type is a headset type.

For example, as shown in fig. 2, in the case where the acquired first information indicates that the notebook computer is connected to the sound box, the cooling fan is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode with a higher fan rotation speed, and at the same time, the volume of sound generated by the cooling component in the second mode is larger, so as to achieve a better cooling effect; as shown in fig. 3, in this embodiment, when the first information is collected to indicate that the notebook computer is connected to the earphone, the cooling fan is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode with a lower fan rotation speed, and at the same time, the volume of sound generated by the cooling component in the second mode is smaller, so that the influence of the sound generated by the cooling component on the use of the notebook computer is avoided.

Based on the above implementation, in one implementation, in step 102, when the first information at least characterizes that the audio output device is of the first device type, when the target component of the electronic device is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode, the method specifically may be:

and controlling the target component of the electronic equipment to switch from the first mode to the second mode under the condition that the first information characterizes that the audio output device is of the first device type and the current output volume of the audio output device meets the output operation condition.

The current output volume meets the output operation condition, which may be: the current output volume exceeds a preset proportional value of the maximum output volume of the audio output device. For example, the current output volume of a sound box to which a notebook is connected exceeds 30% of its maximum volume.

Based on this, in this embodiment, only when the audio output device connected to the electronic apparatus is of the first device type having a maximum output volume greater than the audio output device and the current output volume of the audio output device exceeds the preset proportional value of the maximum output volume, the target device of the electronic apparatus is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode having a larger volume for generating sound. If the audio output device connected to the electronic apparatus is of the first device type having a maximum output volume greater than the audio output device, but the current output volume of the audio output device does not exceed the preset proportional value of the maximum output volume, the target device is not controlled to switch to the second mode for generating a sound with a larger volume, so as to avoid affecting the sound output effect of the audio output device, or the target device is controlled to switch to the second mode for generating a sound with a smaller volume, so as to improve the sound output effect of the audio output device.

For example, as shown in fig. 4, if the notebook computer is connected with the sound box and the current output volume of the sound box reaches 40%, the current output volume exceeds 30% of the maximum volume (i.e. the preset proportional value), the cooling fan in the notebook computer is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode with higher fan rotation speed, and at the same time, the volume of sound generated by the cooling fan in the second mode is larger, and the better cooling effect can be realized although the volume is larger. However, as shown in fig. 5, if the notebook computer is connected with the sound box and the current output volume of the sound box is only 1% of the maximum volume, the cooling fan is not controlled to switch modes, so that the sound output effect of the sound box is prevented from being influenced by generating larger sound in the second mode with higher rotating speed of the switching fan, or the cooling fan is controlled to switch to the second mode with lower rotating speed of the fan, thereby improving the sound output effect of the sound box.

In another implementation manner, in the case where the first information at least characterizes that the audio output device is of the second device type in step 102, when the target component of the electronic device is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode, the method specifically may be:

and controlling the target component of the electronic equipment to switch from the first mode to the second mode under the condition that the first information characterizes that the audio output device is of the second device type and the volume of the target sound acquired by the audio acquisition component meets the acquisition operation condition.

The audio acquisition component is a component configured for an audio output component in the electronic equipment, such as a microphone configured for a loudspeaker. The audio acquisition component is used for acquiring target sounds such as environmental sounds around the electronic device. In addition, an audio acquisition device, such as a microphone on a headset, is also provided on the audio output device of the second device type. The audio acquisition device is used for acquiring target voice, such as user voice.

Specifically, the volume of the target sound satisfies the acquisition operation condition, which may be: the volume of the target sound is greater than the volume of the target voice, or the volume of the target sound is less than or equal to the volume of the target voice and the volume difference is less than the first threshold.

Based on this, in this embodiment, when the audio output device connected to the electronic apparatus is of the second device type having a maximum output volume smaller than the audio output device and the volume of the target sound is larger than the volume of the target voice, or the volume of the target sound is smaller than or equal to the volume of the target voice and the volume difference is smaller than the first threshold, the target device of the electronic apparatus is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode having a smaller volume for generating sound. If the audio output device connected to the electronic device is of the second device type with the maximum output volume smaller than the audio output component, but the volume of the target sound is smaller than the volume of the target voice and the volume difference is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the target component is not controlled to switch to the second mode for generating the smaller volume sound, the functional effect of the target function realized by the target component is affected, or the target component is controlled to switch to the second mode for generating the larger volume sound, so that the functional effect of the target function realized by the target component is improved.

For example, as shown in fig. 6, if the notebook is connected with an earphone and the volume difference between the volume of sound collected by the microphone on the earphone and the volume of ambient sound collected by the microphone on the notebook is not more than 20dB (i.e., the first threshold value), the cooling fan is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode with a lower fan rotation speed, at the same time, the volume of sound generated by the cooling fan in the second mode is smaller, and although the cooling effect may be worse, the volume of running noise of the notebook can be reduced, so that the sound collection effect of the microphone on the earphone and the sound listening effect of the earphone are ensured, so as to improve the user experience of the notebook. As shown in fig. 7, if the notebook is connected with the earphone and the volume of the voice collected by the microphone on the earphone exceeds the volume of the environmental sound collected by the microphone on the notebook by 40dB, the cooling fan of the notebook is not controlled to perform mode switching, or the cooling fan in the notebook is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode with higher fan rotation speed, at the same time, the volume of the sound generated by the cooling fan in the second mode is larger, and although the volume is larger, the better cooling effect can be realized while the voice collection effect of the earphone microphone and the listening effect of the earphone are ensured.

In one implementation, when the target component of the electronic device is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode according to the first information in step 102, the following manner may be implemented:

and at least under the condition that the optical information corresponding to the first information representation electronic equipment meets the control condition, the target component of the control electronic equipment is switched from the first mode to the second mode.

It can be seen that, in this embodiment, mode switching of the target component is implemented through optical information corresponding to the electronic device.

Based on the above implementation, in an optional implementation, the optical information corresponding to the electronic device includes: an ambient light parameter of an environment in which the electronic device is located, the ambient light parameter comprising: any one or more of ambient light temperature and ambient light intensity.

Wherein the ambient light color temperature may be obtained by:

and acquiring a target light wavelength in the environment where the electronic equipment is located by utilizing a distance sensor in the electronic equipment, and then obtaining the color temperature of the ambient light according to the target light wavelength.

The distance sensor is mainly used for receiving second light reflected by other equipment after outputting first light in the environment where the electronic equipment is located, and obtaining the distance between the electronic equipment and the other equipment at least according to the wavelength of the second light.

It should be noted that, the light of the target light wavelength, that is, the target light for obtaining the color temperature of the ambient light, may be the same light or different from the second light. That is, the light used for distance measurement by the distance sensor and the light used for obtaining the color temperature of the ambient light in the present embodiment may be the same light or different light. In a preferred implementation manner, the distance sensor collects target light of non-second light in the environment where the electronic device is located, and obtains the target light wavelength of the target light, so as to obtain the color temperature of the ambient light, and avoid the situation that the color temperature obtaining accuracy is low due to the fact that the first light corresponding to the second light is different from the ambient light where the electronic device is located.

In particular, the distance sensor may be a TOF (Timeofflight) sensor in an electronic device. Based on the above, in this embodiment, the ambient light color temperature of the environment where the electronic device is located is collected by multiplexing the distance sensor in the electronic device.

In addition, the ambient light level may be obtained by:

and acquiring the ambient light brightness of the environment where the electronic equipment is positioned by utilizing an image acquisition component in the electronic equipment.

Based on this, the control conditions in the present embodiment may include: the ambient light parameter is within a preset parameter range. Such as an ambient light color temperature of less than 3200K or an ambient light color temperature of greater than 4000K, and/or an ambient light brightness of less than 30.

For example, as shown in fig. 8, when the TOF recognizes that the color temperature of ambient light is less than 3200K, that is, warm white light, in the notebook, the cooling fan is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode with a lower fan rotation speed, and at the same time, the sound volume generated by the cooling fan in the second mode is smaller, and although the cooling effect may be poor, the running noise volume of the notebook can be reduced, so as to improve the user experience of the user on the notebook. As shown in fig. 9, TOF recognizes that the color temperature of the ambient light is within the range of 4000 to 4500K or greater than 4500K, i.e., natural light or strong light, and controls the cooling fan to switch from the first mode to the second mode with higher fan rotation speed, at the same time, the volume of sound generated by the cooling fan in the second mode is larger, and although the volume is larger, better cooling effect can be achieved.

In another alternative implementation the optical information is component information of a light emitting component in the electronic device. The light emitting component may be a component capable of emitting light in an electronic device and receiving the emitted light by a user, such as a screen of a notebook, a keyboard of a notebook, and the like. The component information can represent the luminous intensity of the luminous component, such as information of the light intensity of a notebook screen, the light intensity of a notebook keyboard lamp and the like.

Based on this, the control conditions include: the component information characterizes that the luminous intensity of the luminous component is in a preset intensity range.

For example, the notebook screen has a light intensity less than 30, or the notebook keyboard light has a light intensity greater than 10, etc.

Based on this, when the component information characterizes that the light emission intensity of the light emitting component in the electronic device is in the intensity range, the target component can be controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode.

For example, as shown in fig. 10, when the light intensity of the notebook screen is less than 30, it indicates that the notebook is in the night mode, at this time, the cooling fan may be controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode with a lower fan rotation speed, and at the same time, the sound volume generated by the cooling fan in the second mode is smaller, and although the cooling effect may be poor, the running noise volume of the notebook can be reduced, so as to improve the use experience of the notebook for the night user. For another example, when the light intensity of the keyboard lamp of the notebook computer is greater than 10, it indicates that the notebook computer is in a daytime mode, and the cooling fan can be controlled to switch from the first mode to a second mode with a higher fan rotating speed, and meanwhile, the sound volume generated by the cooling fan in the second mode is larger, and although the sound volume is larger, a better cooling effect can be achieved.

In another implementation manner, the second information may be obtained before step 102, where the second information includes any one or more of current time information of the electronic device and location information where the electronic device is located.

The location information may be represented by a location identifier, such as indoor or outdoor, such as a work area or a home area, etc. The time information may be represented by a time frame or time point, such as a work time frame or an entertainment time frame, further such as 8 am or 9 pm.

Based on this, when the target component of the electronic device is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode according to at least the first information in step 102, this may be achieved by:

and controlling the target component of the electronic device to switch from the first mode to the second mode according to the first information and the second information.

When the optical information corresponding to the first information representing the electronic device meets a control condition (for example, the component information representing the luminous intensity of the luminous component in the electronic device is in a preset intensity range), and the second information representing the current time information of the electronic device is in a preset time range or the position information of the electronic device is in a preset position range, the control target component is switched from the first mode to the second mode.

For example, when the light intensity of the notebook screen is less than 30 and the notebook is in the position range of the home area, it indicates that the notebook is in the home office state at night, at this time, the cooling fan can be controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode with lower fan rotation speed, and at the same time, the sound volume generated by the cooling fan in the second mode is smaller, although the cooling effect may be worse, the running noise volume of the notebook can be reduced, and the influence on sleeping of other people in the home environment is avoided.

For example, when the light intensity of the keyboard lamp of the notebook computer is greater than 10 and the current time is in the working time range, the notebook computer is in the working state in daytime, the cooling fan can be controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode with higher fan rotating speed, and meanwhile, the sound volume generated by the cooling fan in the second mode is larger, and although the sound volume is larger, better cooling effect can be achieved, so that the user experience of using the notebook computer for office work is improved.

In another implementation manner, the third information may be obtained before step 102, where the third information includes sound information of the target sound collected by the audio collecting component in the electronic device.

Wherein the third information characterizes whether the volume of the target sound is smaller than a second threshold.

Based on this, when the target component of the electronic device is controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode according to at least the first information in step 102, this may be achieved by:

and controlling the target component of the electronic device to switch from the first mode to the second mode according to the first information and the third information.

And when the optical information corresponding to the first information representation electronic equipment meets the control condition (for example, the component information representation light-emitting component of the light-emitting component in the electronic equipment is in a preset intensity range), and the volume of the third information representation target sound is smaller than a second threshold value, the control target component is switched from the first mode to the second mode.

For example, when the light intensity of the notebook screen is less than 30 and the sound volume collected by the microphone on the notebook is less than 20dB (i.e., the second threshold value), it indicates that the notebook is in an office state at night, at this time, the cooling fan can be controlled to switch from the first mode to the second mode with a lower fan rotation speed, and at the same time, the sound volume generated by the cooling fan in the second mode is smaller, although the cooling effect may be worse, the running noise volume of the notebook can be reduced, so that the influence on sleeping of other people in the home environment is avoided.

For example, when the light intensity of the keyboard lamp of the notebook computer is greater than 10 and the sound volume collected by the microphone on the notebook computer is greater than 20dB, the notebook computer is in a working state in daytime, the cooling fan can be controlled to switch from a first mode to a second mode with higher fan rotating speed, meanwhile, the sound volume generated by the cooling fan in the second mode is higher, and although the sound volume is higher, better heat dissipation effect can be achieved, so that the user experience of using the notebook computer for office work is improved.

Referring to fig. 11, a schematic structural diagram of a control device according to a second embodiment of the present application is provided, where the control device may be configured in an electronic device having a target component, such as a notebook or a server having a heat dissipation component. The technical scheme in the embodiment is mainly used for reducing the operation complexity when the component mode is switched.

Specifically, the apparatus in this embodiment may include the following units:

an information acquisition unit 1101 for acquiring first information on an electronic device;

a mode control unit 1102, configured to control a target component of the electronic device to switch from a first mode to a second mode according to at least the first information, where the target component is configured to execute a target function and generate sound, and the target function is different from the generated sound;

Taking the scenario that the user uses the notebook for office as an example, due to the influence of special environment, the office habit of people changes, and many people start to mix office modes (possibly at home, in a coffee shop, in offices, in shared office spaces, etc.), if the notebook fan is in a high-performance mode at home or at night, a large noise is generated, and the rest of the family is influenced. The current notebook computer cannot judge the quietness of the surrounding environment, so that the intelligent speed adjustment of the fan can not be realized to reduce the noise of the fan.

In office space sharing, most of the time, the task is multiplexed, for example: when meeting, need open microphone, camera, audio equipment simultaneously, perhaps can do document editing work moreover, the CPU needs high-speed operation, and the notebook noise grow can not influence peripheral office staff when the noise is great in the surrounding moreover, whether can promote the fan rotational speed based on the actual in-service use condition intelligence of surrounding environment noise and notebook under this kind of environment and let the notebook provide higher performance in order to promote office efficiency.

Therefore, based on the above-mentioned needs, the present application provides a solution for intelligently controlling noise of a notebook fan based on ambient environment changes for a user, specifically: and a scheme for intelligently adjusting the revolution number of the notebook fan. Specifically, the following are flowcharts of whether to adjust the rotation speed of the notebook fan according to several pairs provided in the present application, as follows:

as shown in fig. 17, a flowchart of a decision mechanism for wired earphone insertion is shown. In general, a notebook fan normally operates at a normal rotation speed, such as 3500-5000 rpm, based on which, after the notebook system is started, whether an earphone is inserted into the system, such as a universal serial bus USB (UniversalSerialBus) type earphone or a 3.5mm earphone, when the earphone is inserted into the notebook, a microphone on the earphone detects whether a sound input is present, if yes, the microphone on the earphone records the sound of a main speaker, and after the system is started, the system microphone detects whether a sound input is present, if yes, the system microphone also records the sound of the surrounding environment, when the sound loudness of the speaker is greater than or equal to 40dB, the notebook system automatically improves the heat dissipation performance of the system, increases the rotation speed of the fan to more than 5000 rpm, when the sound loudness of the main speaker is less than or equal to 20dB, the rotation speed of the fan is reduced to 2000 rpm, or if the microphone of the earphone is present, the microphone on the notebook can prompt whether to enter a mute mode through a popup window, if the user clicks the microphone is present, and if the rotation speed of the fan is not reduced to 2000 rpm, and if the noise is not reduced to the noise is reduced, and the noise is not reduced to the surrounding of the notebook.

As shown in fig. 18, a flowchart of a judging mechanism for accessing a bluetooth headset or a sound box to a notebook is shown. In general, the notebook fan operates normally at a normal rotation speed, for example 3500-5000 rpm, after the system is started, whether the Bluetooth equipment requests pairing is monitored, if yes, the Bluetooth equipment is identified, and whether the Bluetooth earphone is used is judged.

When the Bluetooth headset is connected to the notebook, the system recognizes that the Bluetooth headset is inserted, the system can automatically reduce the rotation number of the fan of the notebook, and when the Bluetooth connection is disconnected, the fan of the notebook is restored to the normal rotation number. If the microphone on the earphone has sound input, the microphone on the earphone receives the sound of the main speaker, the system microphone receives the environmental noise, when the sound of the main speaker reduces the environmental noise > =40 dB, the system can automatically improve the heat dissipation performance of the system, the number of the fan revolutions is adjusted to be more than 5000 revolutions per minute, when the sound of the main speaker reduces the environmental noise < =20 dB or the microphone has no sound input, the system automatically reduces the number of the fan revolutions of the notebook, thereby reducing the noise and the power consumption (the noise of the notebook can not affect the surrounding people under the condition of the earphone), and when the earphone is disconnected, the notebook fan is restored to the normal number of revolutions, and the specific flow is shown by referring to FIG. 17.

When the Bluetooth sound box is connected, the system automatically increases the rotation number of the fan to more than 5000 rpm so as to improve the performance of the notebook. When disconnected, the notebook fan returns to a normal number of revolutions.

As shown in fig. 19, a flowchart of the judgment with the ambient light level is shown. Typically, notebook fans operate normally at normal speeds, such as 3500-5000 rpm. After the system is started, the notebook camera or the ToF recognizes that the ambient light is darkened, and when the ToF recognizes that the peripheral color temperature is smaller than 3200K (warm white light), the system can automatically reduce the rotation number of the fan of the notebook to half of the original standard rotation number (such as 2000 rpm), so that noise and power consumption are reduced. When the ToF recognizes that the ambient light is 4000-4500K (natural light) or more than 4500K (natural light+light or under strong light), the rotation number of the fan is automatically increased to be more than 5000 rpm, so that the performance of the notebook is improved, and the use experience of a user is improved.

As shown in fig. 20, a flowchart of time judgment is shown. Typically, notebook fans operate normally at normal speeds, such as 3500-5000 rpm. After the system is started, the system adjusts the time to be the time of the local time zone, a user sets a defined time point in advance, such as the default time is 10 pm, based on which, after the notebook time is later than the time set by the user, the system automatically reduces the rotation number of the fan of the notebook, such as forcibly to 2000 rpm, so as to reduce the rotation number to half of the original standard rotation number, thereby reducing noise and power consumption.

As shown in fig. 21, a flowchart for judgment by screen brightness and microphone pickup size is shown. Typically, notebook fans operate normally at normal speeds, such as 3500-5000 rpm. After the system is started, when the brightness of a screen of the notebook is reduced to 30, meanwhile, the sound receiving volume of a microphone Mic is smaller than 20dB, the notebook is identified as a night mode, the system automatically and forcedly reduces the rotation number of a fan of the notebook to 2000 rpm, if the sound receiving volume of the microphone Mic is not smaller than 20dB, a message box is popped up to prompt whether to enter a fan mute mode, if a user selects a control of yes, the system automatically and forcedly reduces the rotation number of the fan of the notebook to 2000 rpm, and if the user selects a control of no, the fan of the notebook operates normally at a normal rotation speed; if the brightness of the notebook screen is not less than 30, the notebook fan normally operates at a normal rotation speed.

As shown in fig. 22, a flowchart for determining whether there is an earphone inserted, color temperature, time, screen brightness, and earphone sound volume is shown. Typically, notebook fans operate normally at normal speeds, such as 3500-5000 rpm. After the system is started, judging whether headphones are inserted, whether the color temperature acquired after the TOF temperature sensor is automatically opened is smaller than 3200K, whether the system time is later than a local time zone 22 point, whether the screen brightness is smaller than 30, whether the Mic sound volume is smaller than 20dB, if yes, forcibly reducing the revolution of the notebook fan to 2000 rpm, otherwise, normally operating the notebook fan at the normal revolution.

Therefore, the technical scheme of the notebook computer power consumption intelligent control system can intelligently balance the notebook computer performance and fan noise, and can intelligently adjust the notebook computer power consumption while providing better office experience for users.
