When the main control unit 23 receives the authentication completion signal, the main control unit 23 determines that the mobile device 10 has passed the authentication procedure.

When the main control unit 23 executes the unmanned mode, and when the sensing unit 21 does not generate the trigger event signal, the main control unit 23 further determines whether the mobile device 10 passes the authentication procedure. When the mobile device 10 passes the authentication procedure, the main control unit 23 executes the home mode. However, when no mobile device 10 passes the authentication procedure, the main control unit 23 re-determines whether the sensing unit 21 generates the trigger event signal.

The present invention has three goals: the first is to reduce user operations as much as possible, and to improve the degree of automation; the second is to provide a unified interface where all components in the management and control system act in the same way, increase the diversity of components, and reduce design complexity And improve reusability; the third is to provide a system that can be flexibly increased or decreased to meet the needs of various users.

For example, please refer to FIG. 3, the function of the sensing unit 21 is to detect whether an area is invaded, and its main function is to detect activities within the range. The sensing unit 21 contains at least one sensor, such as an infrared blocking detector, a magnetic sensor, a motion detector, a weight sensor, etc., or a smart camera that can detect and Determine whether there are people in the area. In a preferred embodiment, a main entrance, such as a gate, can be provided with a magnetic switch to determine whether the gate has been opened, so as to determine whether someone is entering or leaving.

When someone invades the monitored area, the sensing unit 21 sends a trigger event signal to the main control unit 23 in a wired or wireless manner.

The mobile device 10 is carried by the user, and its main function is to allow the authentication unit 24 to execute the authentication process, thereby allowing the authentication unit 24 to determine whether the user is present. The mobile device 10 is a wireless device that can be connected to the main control unit 23 and carried by the user. Furthermore, the mobile device 10 may be a wearable device, such as a smart watch, smart ring, earrings, necklace, key ring, etc., a wireless device, or a portable electronic device, such as a smart phone, a tablet computer, etc. , Carried by the user.

In this preferred embodiment, the authentication unit 24 of the mobile device 10 and the event management device 20 is authenticated in a wireless manner, such as Bluetooth wireless communication, Bluetooth Low Energy wireless communication, Zigbee Wireless communication or WiFi wireless communication.

The authentication unit 24 is connected to the main control unit 23 in a wired or wireless manner, and has at least one wireless module, and the wireless module is used to scan the mobile device 10 or connect to the mobile device 10.

In addition, before the main control unit 23 executes the management and control method, the mobile device 10 must first register with the authentication unit 24 so that the authentication unit 24 records the registration information of the mobile device 10. After the authentication unit 24 completes the registration with the mobile device, the mobile device 10 registered with the authentication unit 24 can pass the authentication procedure of the authentication unit 24, which also means that the user carrying the mobile device 10 is in This event control device 20 is nearby.

The main control unit 23 directs the authentication unit 24 to execute the authentication procedure or close the authentication procedure, and the authentication unit 24 transmits the authentication result to the main control unit 23. For example, when the authentication unit 24 determines that the mobile device 10 passes the authentication procedure, the authentication unit 24 generates and sends an authentication completion signal to the main control unit 23. When the authentication unit 24 cannot detect the wireless signal of the mobile device 10, it generates and sends an authentication invalidation signal to the main control unit 23. And because the certification completion signal and the certification invalidation signal both contain the information of the mobile device 10, the master can know the 10 mobile devices that currently pass the certification process through the certification completion signal or the certification invalidation signal Numbers and information.

The main control unit 23 has an authenticated mobile device table for recording the information of the mobile device 10 that has been authenticated so far, that is, that has passed the authentication process. After the main control unit 23 receives the authentication completion signal, the main control unit 23 adds the information of the mobile device 10 corresponding to the authentication completion signal into the certified mobile device list. After receiving the certification invalidation signal, the main control unit 23 removes the data of the mobile device 10 corresponding to the certification invalidation signal from the certified mobile device table. In this way, the main control unit 23 only needs to check the data in the certified mobile device table to know the information and the number of the mobile devices 10 that have completed the certification process so as to determine whether to execute the next state.

The event execution unit 22 is connected to the main control unit 23 in a wired or wireless manner to receive the home event signal, the unmanned event signal or the alarm event signal sent by the main control unit 23, and make a response based on these event signals The corresponding behavior.

As shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, the main control unit 23 records the current behavior pattern and sends related event signals according to this behavior pattern. The main control unit 23 executes three different modes, namely, an unmanned mode, an alarm mode, and a home mode. Each means that no user is near the main control unit, an intrusion is detected, and the user has gone home. After the main control unit 23 is updated to the next mode, it will send a corresponding event signal to the event execution unit 22 so that the event execution unit 22 executes the corresponding behavior according to this mode.

In addition, when the main control unit 23 is initially activated, the main control unit 23 can be executed in the unattended mode or the home mode, and the authentication unit 24 is activated to execute the authentication procedure to determine whether the mobile device 10 is Have passed the certification process. In a preferred embodiment, it is more appropriate to start execution from the home mode.

Before the authentication unit 24 is activated, the mobile device 10 needs to register with the authentication unit 24, so that the authentication unit 24 can record the registration information of the mobile device 10, as a way to determine whether the mobile device 10 can pass the authentication process. News.

The simplest authentication procedure is to scan the wireless signal sent by the mobile device 10 by the wireless module of the authentication unit 24, because the mobile device 10 has been registered with the authentication unit 24, and the authentication unit 24 compares the mobile device 10 with the wireless signal. Whether the device data in the sent wireless signal matches the registration data recorded during registration, and use this as authentication.

The authentication unit 24 has a record table for recording the data of the mobile device 10 that has completed the authentication process and the time when the signal sent by the mobile device 10 was last received. When a signal from a registered mobile device 10 is received, but the received signal has not been recorded in the record table, the authentication unit 24 adds the information of the mobile device 10 corresponding to the received signal with the current time In the record table, an authentication completion signal containing the information of the mobile device 10 is sent; when the received signal from the mobile device 10 has been recorded in the record table, the authentication unit 24 is in the record table The time corresponding to the received signal is updated to the current time; when the current time and the time recorded in the record table are found to exceed a preset value, it means that the mobile device 10 is no longer near the authentication unit 24, then the mobile device 10 The information of is removed from the log, and a certification invalidation signal containing the information of the mobile device 10 is issued.

For example, please refer to FIG. 4. In the preferred embodiment, the authentication procedure is a scanning authentication procedure and includes the following steps: Determine whether the wireless signal sent by the mobile device is scanned (S401); When the wireless signal sent by the mobile device is scanned, it is determined whether the device data in the wireless signal matches the registration data recorded during registration (S402); When the device data in the wireless signal matches the registration data recorded during registration, determine whether the device data in the wireless signal has been recorded in the record table (S403); When the device data in the wireless signal has been recorded in the record table, update a record time corresponding to the device data in the wireless signal in the record table to the current time (S404), and re-determine whether the scan is The wireless signal sent by the mobile device (S401); When the device data in the wireless signal has not been recorded in the log table, the device data in the wireless signal and the current time are recorded in the log table (S405), and the authentication completion signal is generated and sent (S406) Then, re-determine whether the wireless signal sent by the mobile device is scanned (S401); When the device data in the wireless signal does not match the registration data recorded during registration, check whether the time difference between the recording time corresponding to each device data recorded in the log table and the current time exceeds a preset value (S407); When the time difference between the record time corresponding to any device data recorded in the record table and the current time exceeds the preset value, the device data corresponding to the record time whose current time difference exceeds the preset value is taken from the record Remove from the table, generate and send the certification invalidation signal (S408), and re-determine whether the wireless signal sent by the mobile device is scanned (S401); When the time difference between the recording time corresponding to each device data recorded in the recording table and the current time does not exceed the preset value, re-determine whether the wireless signal sent by the mobile device is scanned (S401); When the wireless signal sent by the mobile device is not scanned, re-determine whether the wireless signal sent by the mobile device is scanned (S401).

However, the wireless signal sent by the mobile device 10 may be recorded by interested persons, and the further authentication procedure is the connection authentication procedure. Since the mobile device 10 has been registered with the authentication unit 24, and only the registered mobile device can connect, when the authentication unit 24 successfully connects with the mobile device 10, it can be regarded as passing the authentication procedure .

Similar to the scanning authentication procedure, the connection authentication procedure contains a log to record the mobile devices 10 that have been authenticated so far. When the connection is completed, the connected mobile device 10 is added to the record table, and an authentication completion signal containing the information of the mobile device is issued; when the connected mobile device 10 loses the connection, it will lose the connection The mobile device 10 moves out of the log table and sends an authentication invalidation signal containing the information of the mobile device that lost the connection.

For example, please refer to FIG. 5A. In this preferred embodiment, the authentication procedure includes the following steps: Determine whether the connection with the registered mobile device is successful (S501); When the connection with the registered mobile device is successful, the device data of the successfully connected mobile device is recorded in a record table (S502), and an authentication completion signal is generated and sent (S503), and then judge whether The connection with the registered mobile device is successful (S501); When the connection with the registered mobile device is not successful, determine whether the successfully connected mobile device loses connection (S504); When the connection with the successfully connected mobile device is lost, the device data of the lost connection is removed from the log (S505), and after a certification invalidation signal is generated and sent (S506), Re-judge whether the connection with the registered mobile device is successful (S501); When the connection with the mobile device that has not been successfully connected is lost, it is determined whether the connection with the registered mobile device is successful (S501).

In addition, it is also possible that a person who intends to steal the mobile device 10 from the user in order to invade the user's residence. To avoid this situation, the authentication of the user by the mobile device 10 can be further added. In one embodiment, the main control unit 23 or the event execution unit 22 has a numeric key input module that allows the user to enter a password, and allows the user to enter the password during registration. When the authentication unit 24 performs the During the authentication process, the authentication unit 24 will return the information of which mobile device 10 is currently performing the authentication process with to the main control unit 23, and the main control unit 23 will issue a prompt at this time asking the user to enter a password. After entering the correct password, the authentication procedure is completed.

However, when the connection method is used in the authentication process, the connection between the mobile device 10 and the authentication unit 24 may be disconnected due to wireless signal interference. At this time, the user is at home, but the main control unit 23 jumps back to the unmanned mode because the authentication unit 24 is disconnected from the mobile device 10. At this time, the event execution unit 22 executes an unmanned event and turns off the electrical appliance, causing the user Troubles. In order to avoid the above problems, a retry connection authentication procedure should be added when performing the connection authentication procedure.

The purpose of the retry connection authentication procedure is to automatically retry the connection within a certain period of time, and the authentication invalidation signal is issued when there is no way to retry the connection within a preset time. The retry connection authentication procedure contains two tables, one is the connected authentication table and the other is the retry connection table. The connected certification table records the mobile device 10 that has completed the connection. The retry connection table records the time when the connection is lost and the device information of the mobile device 10. When the connection is completed, the authentication unit 24 adds the device information of the mobile device 10 to the connected authentication table, and sends the authentication completion signal.

When the mobile device 10 is disconnected from the authentication unit 24, the authentication unit 24 removes the device information of the mobile device 10 from the connected authentication table and adds it to the retry connection table. And record the disconnection time. When the difference between the current time and the time in the retry connection table exceeds a preset value, the authentication invalidation signal is issued, and this field is removed from the retry connection table.

When the mobile device 10 when the connection is completed is in the retry connection table, the field in the retry connection table is removed, and this information is added to the connected authentication table again. In this way, the authentication unit 24 will automatically retry the connection without causing user confusion due to unexpected disconnection.

For example, please refer to FIG. 5B. In this preferred embodiment, when the main control unit 23 executes the home mode, the authentication unit 24 executes the retry connection authentication procedure, and the retry The trial connection authentication process includes the following steps: Stop and reset a timing unit, and start the timing unit to start timing (S5001); Determine whether the connection with the registered mobile device is successful (S5002); When the connection with the registered mobile device is successful, it is determined whether the device data of the successfully connected mobile device is recorded in a retry connection record table (S5003); When the device data of the successfully connected mobile device is recorded in the retry connection record table, the device data of the successfully connected mobile device is removed from the retry connection record table (S5004 ), and record the device data of the successfully connected mobile device in a connected authentication table (S5005), and re-determine whether the connection with the registered mobile device is successful (S5002); When the device data of the successfully connected mobile device is not recorded in the retry connection log table, the device data of the successfully connected mobile device is recorded in the connected authentication table (S5006) , And generate and send the authentication completion signal containing the device data of the successfully connected mobile device (S5007), and re-determine whether the connection with the registered mobile device is successful (S5002); When the connection with the registered mobile device is not successful, determine whether the successfully connected mobile device loses the connection (S5008); When the successfully connected mobile device loses connection, the device data of the lost mobile device is removed from the connected authentication table (S5009), and the device of the lost mobile device is removed The data and current time are recorded in the retry connection record table (S5010), and it is determined whether the connection with the registered mobile device is successful (S5002); When the successfully connected mobile device does not lose connection, determine whether the time difference between the time corresponding to the device data of the lost mobile device in the retry connection log table and the current time exceeds a preset value ( S5011); When the time difference between the device data of any one of the mobile devices that lost connection and the current time in the retry connection record table exceeds the preset value, the device data of the mobile device that lost the connection is transferred from the Retry the removal from the connection record table (S5012), generate and send an authentication invalidation signal (S5013), and re-determine whether the connection to the registered mobile device is successful (S5002); When the time difference between the time corresponding to the device data of the mobile device that lost the connection and the current time exceeds the preset value in the retry connection record table, re-determine whether the connection to the registered mobile device is successful ( S5002).

In yet another embodiment, when executing the authentication process, the main control unit 23 must first connect to a server, the server sends a message to the user's mobile device 10, and the mobile device 10 activates the corresponding application , To require the user to enter a password within a preset time, and when the user enters the correct password, the password is sent to the server for verification. When the server verifies that the password is correct, the server returns the authentication completion signal to complete the authentication process.

After the main control unit 23 enters the unmanned mode, the main control unit 23 sends the unmanned event signal to the event execution unit 22. In the unmanned mode, the main control unit 23 monitors the trigger event signal sent from the sensing unit 21. When the main control unit 23 receives a trigger event signal in the unmanned mode, it means that something has broken into the monitoring area, and the main control unit 23 executes the alarm mode instead.

When the authentication unit 24 executes the authentication procedure on any mobile device 10 in the unmanned mode and determines that at least one mobile device 10 has passed the authentication procedure, it means that the user returns to the monitoring area, and then generates the authentication completion signal, so that The main control unit 10 then executes the home mode.

When the main control unit 23 enters the alarm mode, it will send the alarm event signal to the event execution unit 22, and wait for the user to intervene, and determine whether it receives an unmanned mode setting signal or a response after the user intervenes Home mode setting signal. After the user intervenes, the user can set the main control unit 23 to return to the unmanned mode or the home mode according to requirements. For example, the user can set to automatically return to the unmanned mode thirty minutes after entering the alarm mode; or enter the home after the authentication unit 24 is connected to the mobile device 10 and passes the authentication procedure Mode; or the sensing unit 21 malfunctions, or cats, dogs, animals, etc., after the user confirms safety, the main control unit 23 receives the user remotely sent through the mobile device 10 or network route Set the signal to switch to the unmanned mode or the home mode. This part can be set by the user.

When the main control unit 23 enters the home mode, it will send the home event signal to the event execution unit 22. When the main control unit 23 receives the authentication invalidation signal from the authentication unit 24 and determines that no mobile device 10 is in an authentication completed state, it means that there is no person at home, and the main control unit 23 turns to Perform the unattended mode.

The event execution unit 22 executes corresponding actions according to the event signal sent by the main control unit 23.

As shown in FIG. 3, it is an embodiment. A piece of software is installed in a smart phone as the event management and control device 20, which contains the main control unit 23, the authentication unit 24, and the event execution unit 22. The user carries a smart key ring as the mobile device 10, and the smart key ring is registered and authenticated by the authentication unit 24. The main control unit 23 controls a room, which contains two accessible places, one is the door 31, the other is the window 32, and a magnetic sensor as the sensing unit 21 is installed on the two entrances and exits. Detector to sense whether the entrance and exit are opened. In addition, a video recorder, an alarm horn and an electric light as other event execution units 22 can be additionally installed in the room.

The magnetic sensors on the doors and windows are the sensing unit 21, and the video recorder, the alarm horn and the light switch are the event execution unit 22. The user hopes that the light will automatically turn off when leaving home to save power. The light is designed to handle the unmanned event signal and turn off the socket when the unmanned event signal is received to save power.

The user hopes that the video recorder and the alarm horn can start recording when someone or something breaks into the monitoring area, and sound an alarm to deter the intruder. Therefore, the video recorder and the alarm speaker are designed to process the alarm event signal, and when the alarm event signal is received, the video recorder is activated, the alarm speaker is activated, and the alarm event signal is sent to the smart phone. The event execution unit 22 notifies the user by sending information via the network, and uploads an image to a server so that the user can confirm the current situation. In addition, the mobile phone video recording module of the smart phone can also be used as the event execution unit 22, and its function is the same as the aforementioned video recorder.

The event execution unit 22 can also handle various events. For example, the light switch is added to continuously turn on and off after receiving the alarm event signal to deter intruders, or it can be added after receiving the return home event signal. Turn on the light automatically. These can be set by users freely to meet the needs of users.

Therefore, the present invention is an automated system, when the user leaves, the related electrical appliances are turned off, and when the user returns, the related electrical appliances are automatically turned on. When the user is absent but is intruded by something unknown, he can also turn on the relevant equipment and notify the user.

The main control unit 23, the sensing unit 21 and the event execution unit 22 may be a piece of hardware or a piece of software. In one embodiment, the main control unit 23, the event execution unit 22, and the sensing unit 21 are different applications of a smart phone, and the smart phone can be installed on the door. When someone opens the door When the sensing unit application detects the movement of the smart phone, it sends the trigger event signal to the main control unit application so that the main control unit application sends the alarm event signal to the event execution unit application , To open the camera lens on the smartphone to start shooting, or to send a text message to the user.

In addition, the sensing unit 21 and the event execution unit 22 can also be integrated into the same set of hardware, such as a smart camera, which can detect whether there is an intrusion in the monitoring area, and send the trigger event signal when there is an intrusion. To the main control unit 23, and when the main control unit 23 determines that the user is absent, it sends the alarm event signal to the smart camera, and then the smart camera starts to record. In this embodiment, the smart camera is both the sensing unit 21 and Event execution unit 22.

The sensing unit 21 will also receive the event signal sent by the main control unit 23. For example, the sensing unit 21 is an infrared blocking sensor. When the user goes home, the infrared blocking sensor receives The home event signal can turn off the infrared transmitter to reduce power consumption and increase product life.

Furthermore, because the user is carrying the mobile device 10, but it may be because the user is moving at the limit of the radio wave communication, as a result, the connection with the main control unit 23 is continuously completed and disconnected, causing the event Repeated switching of electrical appliances in the execution unit may shorten the life of the electrical appliances. To solve this problem, the main control unit 23 may check the wireless signal strength of the mobile device 10 before determining whether the mobile device 10 has passed the authentication procedure, and when the wireless signal strength of the mobile device 10 is sufficiently strong , The authentication mechanism is performed to determine whether the mobile device 10 passes the authentication procedure. In one embodiment, when in the unmanned mode, the authentication unit 24 scans the mobile device 10, and if the signal strength of the scanned mobile device 10 is insufficient, the signal is ignored until the signal of the mobile device 10 When the strength is strong enough, the authentication unit 24 starts to connect with the mobile device 10 to perform the authentication procedure.

After the event execution unit 22 receives the relevant event signal, it can further consider the current environmental conditions. For example, the event execution unit 22 is an electric light with a brightness meter, which can detect the brightness of the environment. When receiving the home event signal, it can refer to the brightness of the current environment and turn on the light automatically if the brightness is insufficient.

Although the main functions are achieved through the unmanned mode, the alarm mode, and the home mode, the wireless module in the authentication unit 24 needs to be continuously turned on, which increases the power consumption of the authentication unit 24. In addition, the authentication unit 24 may be installed inside the building, and the mobile device 10 uses lower power wireless signals to save power. Therefore, the authentication unit 24 and the mobile device 10 need to be within a short distance to pass the The authentication process causes the user to open the door to trigger the sensing element 21, but at this time, the authentication unit 24 and the mobile device 10 have not completed the authentication process and trigger an alarm, which causes the user to be troubled.

Therefore, when the main control unit 23 executes the unmanned mode, the authentication unit 24 monitors the trigger event signal, and after receiving the trigger event signal, executes a warning mode first.

Further, referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 6A and FIG. 6B, the event management and control device further includes a timing unit 25. In another preferred embodiment of the event management and control method, when the sensing unit generates the trigger event signal (S602), the main control unit first executes the following steps before executing the alarm mode (S603): Execute a warning mode (S6022), stop and reset the timing time of the timing unit (S6023), start the timing unit to start timing (S6024), and determine whether the mobile device passes the authentication procedure (S6025); In the warning mode, the main control unit generates and transmits a warning event signal to the event execution unit; When the mobile device passes the authentication procedure, the main control unit executes the home mode (S606); When no mobile device passes the authentication procedure, the main control unit determines whether the timing time of the timing unit exceeds a preset time (S6026); When the timing time of the timing unit exceeds the preset time, the main control unit executes the alarm mode (S603); When the timing time of the timing unit does not exceed the preset time, the main control unit re-determines whether the mobile device passes the authentication procedure (S6025).

After executing the warning mode, the main control unit 23 will send the warning event signal, and after starting the timing unit 25 at this time, determine whether the mobile device 10 has passed the authentication procedure according to whether the authentication completion signal is received. If any mobile device 10 passes the authentication procedure before the timing time of the timing unit has exceeded the preset time, it will enter the home mode. If the timing time of the timing unit 25 exceeds the second preset time, no mobile device 10 still passes the authentication process before entering the alarm mode. In this way, the authentication unit 24 does not need to activate the wireless module in the unmanned mode, and power consumption can be saved. In addition, there will be no trouble of triggering an alarm first while the authentication process is being performed.

However, there will be a period of delay from generating the trigger event signal to the alarm mode. If the event execution unit 21 is an image or audio recorder, if the recording starts after the alarm event signal is received, the critical image cannot be recorded. Therefore, the event execution unit 21 as an image or audio recorder needs to start recording when receiving the warning event signal to avoid missing key information. After entering the warning mode and receiving the return home event signal, the event execution unit 21 can delete this piece of information to protect user privacy, or it can keep it until the record space is insufficient and delete it first. To get more space. If you enter the warning mode, enter the alarm mode, and continue to record information until the user intervenes or receives other event signals.

Although the event management system of the present invention can facilitate users to monitor a specific area, it cannot cover large areas, such as large houses or factories with multiple rooms, due to the resource limitations of a single system. At this time, we can integrate several systems into a large-scale system through the Internet. Users can adjust them flexibly according to their personal needs and integrate them into a large-scale system, which is like a system and executes corresponding events according to each event. action.

The event management system of the present invention is a regional system, and integrating multiple regional systems can become an integrated system. The integrated system is a master-slave architecture. In the integrated system, one regional system is selected as the master system, and the other regional systems are subsystems. An integrated system has only one master system and at least one subsystem. Furthermore, the event management system of the present invention also includes a bridging unit, that is to say, the main system and the regional system as the subsystem each have a bridging unit, and the bridging units of the main system and each subsystem are connected through the network . In this preferred embodiment, the main system has a main control unit, which also controls the sensing unit, event execution unit, and authentication unit of the main system. In addition, it also receives the bridge unit of each subsystem through the bridge unit. Coming signal.

Therefore, in the integrated system, the main control unit of the main system controls the execution mode of the entire integrated system. The bridge unit in each subsystem is responsible for transmitting the signals of the sensing unit and the authentication unit to the main control unit of the main system, and receives the event signal sent by the main control unit of the main system to the sensing unit, event execution unit and Authentication unit.

The main system and subsystems under the integrated system do not need to have a complete sensing unit, event execution unit and authentication unit, only the sensing unit, event execution unit and authentication unit in the integrated system. It can be configured flexibly according to personal needs.

For example, referring to Figure 7, the integrated system has a main system 20a and two subsystems 20b, 20c. The main system 20a has an event execution unit 22a and a main control unit 23a; and a subsystem 20b has one The bridge unit 26b, a sensing unit 21b and an event execution unit 22b; the other subsystem 20c has a bridge unit 25c and an authentication unit 24c.

The main control unit 23a of the main system 20a and the bridge units 26b, 26c of the subsystems 20b and 20c are connected by a network, and the main control unit 23a of the main system 20a receives the trigger event signal and authentication of all the sensing units 21b in the integrated system The authentication event signal of the unit 24b is used to determine the current execution mode. Similarly, when the main control unit 23a wants to send related event signals to the entire integrated system, the main control unit 23a in the main system 20a sends it to the bridge units 26b, 26c of the subsystems 20b, 20c via the network, and so on. Then, each unit of the entire integrated system can perform corresponding actions, just like an independent system.

However, the integrated system has two different systems: the main system 20a and the subsystems 20b and 20c. The user must set separately, which is likely to cause troubles in the installation of the user. In order to reduce the complexity of the user installation, the main system 20a can be installed in Run on the server.

For example, please refer to Figures 7 and 8. The user has a house with two rooms, the front is a store, and the back is a storage room, and a door 200 is connected to it. The store is provided with a front door 211b and a window 212b, and the user installs a first smart electronic device as the subsystem 20b in the store, and points the lens of the first smart electronic device 20b at the door and window, so as to be Record the image at the time of the invasion. The user installs a magnetic sensor on the front door 211b and the window 212b as the sensing unit 21b to sense whether the entrance is opened. In addition, an alarm horn 221b and an electric light 222b are installed in the store as the event execution unit 22b.

Similarly, a rear door 211c and a rear window 212c are provided in the rear storage room, and the user also installs a magnetic sensor on them as the sensing unit 21c to sense whether the entrance is opened. Similarly, the user also installs a second smart electronic device as the sub-system 20c, and points the camera lens of the second smart electronic device 20c into the storage room.

The user carries a smart key ring 10 and is registered by the authentication unit. In addition, a server is provided on the network as the main system 20a. The main system 20a has a main control element 23a and an event execution element 22a. The event execution element 22a in the main system 20a is responsible for sending relevant information to notify the user.

The first smart electronic device 20b in the store contains a bridge unit 26b, an event execution unit 22b, and an authentication unit 24b, and cooperates with the front door 211b, windows 212b, alarm horn 221b and electric lights 222b in the store to form the subsystem 20b . The second smart electronic device 20c in the storage room contains a bridge unit 26c and an event execution unit 22c, and cooperates with the magnetic sensors provided on the rear door 211c and the rear window 212c to form the subsystem 20c.

When the integrated system is started, the main control unit 23a of the main system 20a enters the unmanned mode, the current door is opened, and the trigger event is sent to the bridge unit 26b of the subsystem 20b, and the bridge unit 26b of the subsystem 20b is uploaded to the main system 20a. The control unit 23a and the main control unit 23a switch to the alarm mode at this time, and send an alarm event to the event execution unit 22a in the main system 20a to notify the user of this situation. In addition, the alarm event is also sent to the subsystems 20b and 20c. After the bridging units 26b and 26c of the subsystems 20b and 20c receive the alarm event signal, they forward them to the event execution units 22b and 22c in the subsystems 20b and 20c to perform related actions. . For example, the camera modules of the subsystems 20b and 20c can start recording and upload these images to the server, so that the user can instantly see the current home situation and perform related actions.

For another example, after the user leaves the house, the authentication unit 24c of the subsystem 20b sends an authentication failure signal to the bridge unit of the subsystem 25b. The bridge unit 20b uploads this event to the main control unit 23a of the main system 20a, and the main control unit 23a is in Knowing that there is no authenticated mobile device 10 in the current integrated system, it switches to the unmanned mode and sends an unmanned event signal to the subsystems 20b and 20c. At this time, the subsystems 20b and 20c can activate the sensing units 21b and 21c. , And monitor the trigger signal.

In this way, the subsystem of the entire integrated system is just like a previous independent system, but without being restricted by the resource constraints of the subsystem, users can expand the entire system flexibly according to their needs.
