BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a voice recognition module according to an embodiment of the present invention; and
FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a method for controlling a voice recognition module according to an embodiment of the present invention.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
As shown in FIG. 1 , a voice recognition module 100 includes a controller 101 , a microphone array 102 connected to the controller 101 , and a speaker 103, and further includes a power supply unit 104 supplying power to the controller 101 , the microphone array 102, and the speaker 103.
Generally, an operating mode of the voice recognition module 100 includes a standby mode and a wakeup mode. It is beneficial to reduction of energy consumption to keep the voice recognition module in the standby mode without using a voice recognition function. When the voice recognition function needs to be used, the voice recognition module 100 is woken up.
The controller 101 may be configured to control operating states of the microphone array 102 and the speaker 103. For example, in an embodiment, the microphone array 102 may include two or more microphones. The controller 101 may be configured to keep at least one microphone in an awake state, and wake up the remaining microphones to operate according to different operating circumstance requirements. An arrangement of the microphones in the microphone array 102 is not limited, may be a linear array, or may be a two-dimensional array or a three-dimensional array.
Specifically, in an embodiment, the voice recognition module 100 may include four microphones and one speaker 103. In a standby mode, the controller 101 is configured to control one of the microphones to be in an awake state. When the microphone receives any sound, the controller 101 controls the speaker 103 to send a sound wave pulse signal. The microphone receives an echo of the sound wave pulse signal, and moreover the controller 102 stores an echo graph and compares the echo graph with a preset echo graph. The controller 101 controls an operating state of the voice recognition module according to a comparison result.
If the comparison result is that the current echo graph is the same as the preset echo graph, it indicates that it is unnecessary to wake up the voice recognition module 100; if the comparison result is that the two are different, it indicates that there is a user entering a current space where the voice recognition module 100 is located and the voice recognition function may need to be used, and the controller 101 performs control to start the remaining three microphones.
In an embodiment, a preset echo graph may be an echo graph of an empty room obtained through a test or an experiment. In this embodiment, when the current echo graph is different from the echo graph of the empty room, it is considered that there is a user entering the same space and the voice recognition function needs to be enabled, and the controller 101 performs control to start corresponding microphones.
In an embodiment, a microphone may be controlled to operate by setting a threshold of a difference between a current echo graph and an echo graph of an empty room, that is, when the difference exceeds the threshold, the remaining microphones are started.
By means of the foregoing solution, when a user needs to use the voice recognition module, the module is woken up, thereby reducing energy consumption and costs. As shown in FIG. 2, a method for controlling a voice recognition module according to an embodiment of the present invention is applicable to the foregoing voice recognition module 100. Steps of the method include the following:
S100, at least one microphone being in an awake state, after the at least one microphone receives a sound, a speaker is controlled to send a sound wave signal.
In an embodiment, one microphone in a microphone array may be in an awake state, and is configured to activate the speaker through any sound received.
In an embodiment, the speaker may send a plurality of sound wave pulse signals to form a clear and accurate sound wave echo graph.
S102, the at least one microphone receives an echo of the sound wave signal and obtains a current echo graph in a space where the voice recognition module is located.
S104, the current echo graph is compared with a preset echo graph to control the voice recognition module.
In an embodiment, when the current echo graph is different from the preset echo graph, it indicates that there may be a user entering the space where the voice recognition module is located and the entire voice recognition module is controlled to wake up, that is, the remaining microphones in a dormant state.
In an embodiment, when a difference between the current echo graph and the preset echo graph exceeds a preset value, the entire voice recognition module is controlled to wake up.
When the space where the voice recognition module is located is an empty room, the preset echo graph in a state of the empty room is obtained.
Embodiments of the present invention further disclose a household appliance including the foregoing voice recognition module 100. The household appliance may be a refrigerator, a washing machine, a cooker hood, a cooktop, a coffee machine, a dishwasher, or the like.
A refrigerator is taken as an example below, the refrigerator is placed in a room 1 , and the refrigerator is provided with the voice recognition module 100 through which a voice recognition function and a voice control function can be realized. When there is no one in the room 1 , an echo graph X of an empty room of the room 1 is obtained and stored.
Generally, the voice recognition module 100 of the refrigerator is in a standby state to save electric energy, where at least one microphone is left in an operating state. When the microphone 102 receives any sound, the speaker 103 is controlled to send a sound wave pulse signal, the microphone 102 receives an echo of the pulse signal and obtains an echo graph Y, and the echo graph Y is compared with a preset echo graph X of the empty room. If Y is different from X, it indicates that there is someone entering the room 1 and the voice recognition function needs to be enabled, and the controller 101 wakes up the remaining microphones. Otherwise, the voice recognition module 100 continues to be on standby.
A person of ordinary skill in the art may understand that all or part of the steps of all methods of the foregoing embodiments may be completed by a program instructing related hardware, the program may be stored in a computer-readable storage medium, and the storage medium may include: a ROM, a RAM, a magnetic disk, an optical disc, or the like.
Although the present invention is disclosed above, the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and the scope of the present invention, and therefore the protection scope of the present invention should be subject to the scope defined by the claims.
