Detailed Description

In order to make the objects, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and understandable, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments herein without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the present application.

In order to realize automatic switching of devices connected with a playing device, reduce user operations and improve user experience, an embodiment of the present application provides a device connection method, which is applied to a first device, as shown in fig. 1, and the method includes:

step 101, receiving a connection request sent by the second device.

In this embodiment, the first device is a playing device (such as a bluetooth headset, a bluetooth sound device, etc.), and the second device is a device (such as a mobile phone, a tablet, a computer, etc.) that has been paired with the playing device but not connected to the playing device.

The second device sends a connection request to the first device.

Step 102, determining the connection priority of the second device based on a device list and the connection request, wherein the device list comprises at least one second device, a first device and a third device connected with the first device.

The first device stores a device list, which includes all devices paired with the first device (including at least one second device and the first device, and a third device connected to the first device), and device information of each device.

A connection priority of the second device is determined based on the list of devices and the connection request of the second device.

And step 103, disconnecting the connection with the third device based on the connection priority, so that the second device establishes connection with the first device.

The third device is a device (may be a mobile phone, a computer, etc.) that is being connected to the first device, and the connection priority of the third device is included in the device list of the first device.

If the connection priority of the second device is greater than or equal to the connection priority of the third device, the first device disconnects the connection with the third device and establishes connection with the second device.

In the above scheme, the first device receives the connection request sent by the second device, determines the connection priority of the second device based on the connection request, and determines the connection priority of the third device being connected with the first device based on the device list. When the connection priority of the second equipment is greater than or equal to that of the third equipment, the first equipment automatically disconnects the connection with the third equipment and establishes connection with the second equipment, so that automatic switching of the connection equipment is realized, operations required by a user when the equipment connected with the first equipment needs to be switched are reduced, and the use experience of the user is obviously improved.

In an example of the present application, as shown in fig. 2, there is further provided a device connection method, where the first device includes at least one sub-device, each sub-device has been connected to a different third device, and the disconnecting the connection with the third device and establishing a connection with the second device based on the connection priority includes:

and step 201, determining a target third device from third devices based on the connection priority.

In this embodiment, the first device is a playback device (such as a bluetooth headset including left and right channels, a bluetooth sound including at least one sound) that includes at least one sub-device.

When the first device comprises only one sub-device, then only one corresponding third device is present. And if the connection priority of the third device is less than or equal to the connection priority of the second device, determining the third device as a target third device.

When the first device comprises a plurality of sub-devices, then a corresponding plurality of third devices is present. And if at least one third device with the connection priority smaller than or equal to that of the second device exists, selecting the third device with the lowest connection priority from the at least one third device as the target third device.

And 202, disconnecting the connection with the target third device, and establishing connection between the sub-device disconnected with the target third device and the second device.

For example, as shown in fig. 3, the first device is a bluetooth sound and only includes one sub-device, and the first device is connected to the third device a. The second device has sent a connection request to the first device, determines that the connection priority of the second device is 3 based on the connection request, and determines that the connection priority of the third device a is 2 based on the device list. The connection priority of the second device is equal to or higher than that of the third device a, and therefore, the first device disconnects from the third device a and establishes a connection with the second device.

As another example, as shown in fig. 4, the first device is a bluetooth headset, and the bluetooth headset includes two sub-devices of a left channel and a right channel, the left channel is connected to the third device B, and the right channel is connected to the third device C. The second device sends a connection request to the first device, determines that the connection priority of the second device is 3 based on the connection request, determines that the connection priority of the third device B is 4 based on the device list, and determines that the connection priority of the third device C is 2. The connection priority of the second device is equal to or higher than that of the third device C, so that the first device disconnects the right channel from the third device C and establishes a connection between the right channel and the second device.

In the above-mentioned scheme, when there are multiple third devices connected with multiple sub-devices of the first device, the target third device that needs to be disconnected may be determined based on the connection priority, so that the first device disconnects from the target third device and establishes a connection with the second device. When a plurality of pieces of third equipment are connected with a plurality of pieces of sub equipment of the first equipment, the connection equipment is automatically switched based on the connection priority, and the intelligent equipment connection and the use experience of a user are further improved.

In an example of the present application, as shown in fig. 5, there is further provided a device connection method, where the first device includes at least one sub-device, each sub-device has been connected to the same third device, and the disconnecting the connection with the third device and establishing a connection with the second device based on the connection priority includes:

step 301, if the connection priorities of the third device and the second device are both greater than or equal to a preset priority, determining a target sub-device disconnected from the third device from at least one sub-device, and establishing connection between the target sub-device and the second device.

When a first device comprises a plurality of sub-devices, the plurality of sub-devices may all be connected to the same third device. At this time, it is required to determine whether the connection priorities of the third device and the second device are equal to or greater than the preset priority, if so, it is indicated that the use requirements of the third device and the second device are both higher, then it is required to determine a target sub-device that needs to be disconnected from the third device from at least one sub-device, disconnect the target sub-device from the third device, and connect the target sub-device with the second device, so that the third device and the second device can be simultaneously connected with the first device for use.

For example, as shown in fig. 6, the first device is a bluetooth headset, and the bluetooth headset includes two sub-devices of a left channel and a right channel, where the left channel and the right channel are both connected to the third device D. The second device sends a connection request to the first device, determines that the connection priority of the second device is 4 based on the connection request, determines that the connection priority of the third device D is 5 based on the device list, and sets the preset priority to 3. The connection priorities of the second device and the third device D are equal to or greater than the preset priority, so that the first device disconnects the right channel from the third device D and establishes connection between the right channel and the second device.

And step 302, if the connection priority of the third device is smaller than that of the second device, disconnecting all the sub-devices from the third device and establishing connection with the second device.

If the connection priority of the third device is less than the connection priority of the second device, all the sub-devices may be disconnected from the third device and connected to the second device.

For example, as shown in fig. 7, the first device is a bluetooth headset, and the bluetooth headset includes two sub-devices of a left channel and a right channel, where the left channel and the right channel are both connected to the third device E. The second device has transmitted a connection request to the first device, determines that the connection priority of the second device is 3 based on the connection request, and determines that the connection priority of the third device E is 2 based on the device list. The connection priority of the third device D is smaller than that of the second device, and therefore, the first device disconnects the left and right channels from the third device E, and establishes connection of the left and right channels with the second device.

In the above scheme, when the connection priorities of the third device and the second device are equal to or greater than the preset priority, the connection between the target sub-device and the third device is disconnected by selecting the target sub-device from the plurality of sub-devices connected with the third device, and the target sub-device and the second device are connected, so that when the use requirements of the third device and the second device are higher, the connection between the third device and the first device can be established for use. And when the connection priority of the third device is smaller than that of the second device, the connection between all the sub-devices and the third device can be disconnected, and all the sub-devices and the second device are connected. The intelligent device connection and the use experience of the user are further improved.

In an example of the present application, there is also provided a device connection method, where the first device includes at least one sub-device, there is at least one idle sub-device, and the establishing a connection with the second device includes:

When a first device contains a plurality of sub-devices, if there is at least one idle sub-device (i.e. no connection is established with any device), the at least one idle sub-device is connected with a second device.

For example, as shown in fig. 8, the first device is a bluetooth headset, and the bluetooth headset includes two sub-devices of a left channel and a right channel, where the right channel is connected to the third device F. The second device sends a connection request to the first device, where the left channel in the first device is not connected to any device, and is an idle sub-device, and therefore the first device establishes a connection between the left channel and the second device.

An embodiment of the present application provides a device connection method, which is applied to a first device, as shown in fig. 9, and includes:

step 401, receiving a connection request sent by a second device.

And step 403, disconnecting the connection with the third device based on the connection priority, so that the second device establishes a connection with the third device.

The device list of the first device includes a connection priority of the first device.

If the connection priority of the second device is greater than or equal to that of the first device, the first device informs the third device to disconnect the first device and establish connection with the second device.

In the above scheme, the first device receives the connection request sent by the second device, determines the connection priority of the second device based on the connection request, and determines the connection priority of the first device based on the device list. When the connection priority of the second device is greater than or equal to that of the first device, the first device notifies the third device to disconnect the connection with the first device and establish the connection with the second device, so that automatic switching of the connection devices is realized, operations required by a user when the devices connected with the first device need to be switched are reduced, the use experience of the user is obviously improved, the first device is used as a device for processing and calculating data, a control module is not required to be arranged in a playing device (namely the third device), and the cost of the playing device is obviously reduced.

When the third device only comprises one sub-device and the connection priority of the first device is smaller than or equal to the connection priority of the second device, the first device disconnects the sub-device from the third device and notifies the third device to establish connection between the sub-device and the second device.

When the third device comprises a plurality of sub-devices, and the connection priority of the first device and the connection priority of the second device are larger than or equal to the preset priority, the first device disconnects at least one sub-device of the third device, and the third device is informed to establish connection between the disconnected at least one sub-device and the second device.

When the third device comprises a plurality of sub-devices and the connection priority of the first device is smaller than that of the second device, the first device disconnects all the sub-devices of the third device and informs the third device to establish connection between all the sub-devices and the second device.

In the above scheme, based on the connection priority of the second device and the first device, different device connection schemes under different conditions are determined, so that the device connection method is more intelligent, and the use experience of the user is further improved.

These program code may be provided to a processor or controller of a general purpose computer, special purpose computer, or other programmable data processing apparatus such that the program code, when executed by the processor or controller, causes the functions/operations specified in the flowchart and/or block diagram to be implemented. The program code may execute entirely on the machine, partly on the machine, as a stand-alone software package, partly on the machine and partly on a remote machine or entirely on the remote machine or server.

In the context of this disclosure, a machine-readable medium may be a tangible medium that can contain, or store a program for use by or in connection with an instruction execution system, apparatus, or device. The machine-readable medium may be a machine-readable signal medium or a machine-readable storage medium. The machine-readable medium may include, but is not limited to, an electronic, magnetic, optical, electromagnetic, infrared, or semiconductor system, apparatus, or device, or any suitable combination of the foregoing. More specific examples of a machine-readable storage medium would include an electrical connection based on one or more wires, a portable computer diskette, a hard disk, a Random Access Memory (RAM), a read-only memory (ROM), an erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM or flash memory), an optical fiber, a portable compact disc read-only memory (CD-ROM), an optical storage device, a magnetic storage device, or any suitable combination of the foregoing.

To provide for interaction with a user, the systems and techniques described here can be implemented on a computer having: a display device (e.g., a CRT (cathode ray tube) or LCD (liquid crystal display) monitor) for displaying information to a user; and a keyboard and pointing device (e.g., a mouse or trackball) by which a user can provide input to the computer. Other kinds of devices may also be used to provide for interaction with a user; for example, feedback provided to the user may be any form of sensory feedback (e.g., visual feedback, auditory feedback, or tactile feedback); and input from the user may be received in any form, including acoustic input, speech input, or tactile input.

The systems and techniques described here can be implemented in a computing system that includes a background component (e.g., as a data server), or that includes a middleware component (e.g., an application server), or that includes a front-end component (e.g., a user computer having a graphical user interface or a web browser through which a user can interact with an implementation of the systems and techniques described here), or any combination of such background, middleware, or front-end components. The components of the system can be interconnected by any form or medium of digital data communication (e.g., a communication network). Examples of communication networks include: local Area Networks (LANs), wide Area Networks (WANs), and the internet.

The computer system may include a client and a server. The client and server are typically remote from each other and typically interact through a communication network. The relationship of client and server arises by virtue of computer programs running on the respective computers and having a client-server relationship to each other. The server may be a cloud server, a server of a distributed system, or a server incorporating a blockchain.

It should be appreciated that various forms of the flows shown above may be used to reorder, add, or delete steps. For example, the steps recited in the present disclosure may be performed in parallel or sequentially or in a different order, provided that the desired results of the technical solutions of the present disclosure are achieved, and are not limited herein.

Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and the like, are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying a relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defining "a first" or "a second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. In the description of the present disclosure, the meaning of "a plurality" is two or more, unless explicitly defined otherwise.

The foregoing is merely specific embodiments of the disclosure, but the protection scope of the disclosure is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art can easily think about changes or substitutions within the technical scope of the disclosure, and it is intended to cover the scope of the disclosure. Therefore, the protection scope of the present disclosure shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
