参照图1，提出本发明的宠物喂食方法一实施例，所述方法应用于喂食设备，包括以下步骤：
S11、检测当前是否满足喂食条件，该喂食条件包括第一喂食条件和第二喂食条件。
S12、当满足第一喂食条件时，采用喂养模式投放食物。
S13、当满足第二喂食条件时，采用娱乐模式投放食物。
本发明实施例中，为喂食设备设置了两种食物投放模式，一种为喂养模式，另一种为娱乐模式；同时分别为两种食物投放模式设置了不同触发条件，分别为第一喂食条件和第二喂食条件。喂养模式与传统的食物投放模式相同，主要目的是喂饱宠物，防止宠物挨饿，保持宠物身体健康；娱乐模式为本发明实施例新增的模式，主要目的是为了与宠物互动玩耍，增加趣味性，防止宠物寂寞孤独，保持宠物身心健康。
步骤S11中，喂食设备实时或定时的检测当前是否满足第一喂食条件或第二喂食条件。具体实施时，喂食设备可以通过以下方案检测当前是否满足喂食条件。
方案一：
可以在喂食设备上(如顶部)设置摄像头，该摄像头可以为全景摄像头，也可以为普通摄像头，当为普通摄像头时，该普通摄像头优选可以旋转拍摄。此时，喂食设备通过摄像头实时或定时(间隔时间几秒到几十秒)的监测宠物状态，并根据宠物状态自动确定当前是否满足喂食条件。
作为一实施例，喂食设备根据监测到的宠物状态判断宠物是否处于饥饿状态或无聊状态；当监测到宠物处于饥饿状态时，则确定当前满足第一喂食条件；当监测到宠物处于无聊状态时，则确定当前满足第二喂食条件。
例如，当监测到的宠物状态为宠物在喂食设备附近寻找食物和/或吠叫(特别是对着喂食设备吠叫)时，则判定宠物处于饥饿状态。一般的，若检测到宠物离喂食设备的距离小于预设距离(如1米以内)或小于预设距离且持续预设时间(如2分钟)，则认定宠物在喂食设备附近；若监测到宠物低头在地上来回寻找，则认定宠物在寻找食物。此外，还可以根据宠物饥饿时可能表现出的其它状态来确定宠物是否饥饿，本发明对此不作限定。
又如，当监测到的宠物状态为宠物长时间睡觉、发呆或闲逛时，则判定宠物处于无聊状态。所述的长时间睡觉如持续睡觉1个小时左右，所述的长时间发呆如持续发呆(睁着眼睛不走动)20-30分钟， 所述的长时间闲逛如持续闲逛(来回走到)20-30分钟。此外，还可以根据宠物无聊时可能表现出的其它状态来确定宠物是否无聊，如当宠物远距离(如距离喂食设备2米以上)的对着喂食设备吠叫时也可以判定宠物处于无聊状态，本发明对此不作限定。
本方案中，喂食设备可以通过主动监测宠物状态来自动选择对应的食物投放模式进行喂食，智能化程度高，特别适合用户无暇照顾宠物的情形。
方案二：
喂食设备可以与用户终端建立通信连接，可以是直接与用户终端连接，也可以通过服务器与用户终端连接，所述用户终端如手机、平板等移动终端，或者个人电脑、笔记本电脑等计算机终端。喂食设备上(如顶部)设置有摄像头，该摄像头可以为全景摄像头，也可以为普通摄像头，当为普通摄像头时，该普通摄像头优选可以旋转拍摄。
此时，喂食设备检测当前是否满足喂食条件的具体流程如图2所示，包括以下步骤：
S111、通过摄像头监视宠物，并将监视画面发送给用户终端。
喂食设备通过摄像头跟踪拍摄宠物，并将拍摄到的监视画面实时或定时的发送给用户终端，可以是直接发送给用户终端，也可以通过服务器发送给用户终端。
S112、接收用户终端发送的第一喂食指令或第二喂食指令。
用户终端接收到监视画面并予以显示，用户可以通过监视画面远程监视宠物状态，进而决定是否需要对宠物喂食，以及是以喂养模式还是娱乐模式投放食物。当决定以喂养模式投放食物时，则发布第一喂食指令；当决定以娱乐模式投放食物时，则发布第二喂食指令。用户可以通过语音、触控、手势、按键、鼠标等控制方式向用户终端发布喂食指令。
用户终端接收用户发布的第一喂食指令或第二喂食指令并发送给喂食设备，可以直接发送给喂食设备或通过服务器发送给喂食设备，喂食设备接收用户终端发送的第一喂食指令或第二喂食指令。
S113、当接收到第一喂食指令时，确定当前满足第一喂食条件。
S114、当接收到第二喂食指令时，确定当前满足第二喂食条件。
喂食设备接收到喂食指令后，判断该喂食指令为第一喂食指令还是第二喂食指令。当为第一喂食指令时，则确定当前满足第一喂食条件；当为第二喂食指令时，则确定当前满足第二喂食条件。
本方案中，用户可以远程监视宠物，并根据宠物状态远程控制喂食设备以相应的食物投放模式喂食，特别适合用户离家外出的情形，使得用户即使在外面也能照顾家里的宠物或与宠物娱乐互动。
方案三：
用户可以在喂食设备上设置喂食时间，该喂食时间包括第一喂食时间段和第二喂食时间段。第一喂食时间段对应喂养模式，如设定为9:00-10:00、12:30-13:30、17:00-18:00等。第二喂食时间段对应娱乐模式，如设定为11:00-12:00、15:00-16:00、20:00-21:00等。用户可以直接在喂食设备上进行设置，也可以通过手机、平板等终端设备连接喂食设备，并在终端设备上进行设置。
此时，喂食设备获取当前的时间信息，并根据时间信息确定当前是否满足喂食条件。具体的，喂食设备根据时间信息判断当前是否处于第一喂食时间段或第二喂食时间段；当处于第一喂食时间段时，确定当前满足第一喂食条件；当处于第二喂食时间段时，确定当前满足第二喂食条件。
本方案中，喂食设备可以根据用户设置的喂食时间自动以对应的食物投放模式喂食，智能化程度高，特别适合用户无暇照顾宠物的情形。
方案四：
用户直接向喂食设备发布(或下达)对应的喂食指令，喂食设备接收到用户发布的第一喂食指令时，确定满足第一喂食条件，接收到用户发布的第二喂食指令时，确定满足第二喂食条件。
用户可以通过语音、触控、手势、按键等控制方式向喂食设备发布喂食指令。例如，用户向喂食设备发出语音指令，喂食设备接收语音指令，并将该语音指令识别为文字信息，解析该文字信息，根据解析结果确定该语音指令是否为第一喂食指令或第二喂食指令。
本方案中，用户可以直接操控喂食设备以相应的食物投放模式喂食，适合用户在家的情形，使得用户可以在家照顾宠物或与宠物娱乐互动。
在具体实施时，可以将前述四种方案中的至少两种方式结合起来实施。对于方案一和方案三，可以设置为喂食设备的无人值守的自动喂食模式，当开启自动喂食模式时，喂食设备则可以采用方案一和/方案三的方式自动喂食。
步骤S12中，当满足第一喂食条件时，说明宠物当前比较饥饿，喂食设备则采用喂养模式投放食物进行喂食。具体实施时，喂食设备可以近距离投放食物和/或将食物投放在同一位置，比如将食物投放在距离喂食设备1米以内的固定区域内，使得宠物能够快速进食，解除饥饿状态。
步骤S13中，当满足第二喂食条件时，说明宠物当前比较无聊，喂食设备则采用娱乐模式投放食物进行喂食。具体实施时，喂食设备可以远距离投放食物和/或将食物分别投放在不同位置，比如：将食物向上抛出投放在距离喂食设备3米以外的区域，让宠物跳跃接取食物；或者喂食设备的投食嘴来回转动或改变投食角度以将食物投向不同的方向，让宠物来回跑动接取食物；或者利用投食设备不同朝向的至少两个投食嘴交替投放食物以将食物投向不同的方向，让宠物来回跑动接取食物；等等。
此外，两种食物投放模式投放食物的种类和/或数量还可以有所不同，如：以娱乐模式投放食物时，优选投放体积较大的固态食物，每次投放一个固态食物，且娱乐模式投放的食物量少于喂食模式投放的食物量。
从而使得宠物一边吃食物，一边运动玩耍，增强了宠物喂食的趣味性，既锻炼了宠物的身体，又排解了宠物的孤独寂寞，保证了宠物的身心健康。
如图3所示，为实现本发明的宠物喂食方法的喂食设备一实例的结构示意图，该喂食设备顶部设置有摄像头101，侧面设置有投食嘴102(优选可以360度旋转)，内部设置有食物存储腔、投食机械单元 (优选可以360度旋转)及电路单元。摄像头101优选为全景摄像头，也可以是能够旋转一定角度(优选360度)的普通摄像头，摄像头101可以捕捉宠物状态进而分析宠物当前是否需要喂食，还可以测出宠物与喂食设备的距离，从而确定喂食设备最佳的投食方向、角度及距离。
喂食设备的电路单元如图4所示，主要包括中央处理单元、存储单元、摄像头控制单元、射频收发单元、射频前端及射频功放单元、WIFI/BT单元、语音识别单元、投食控制单元。摄像头控制单元设置为控制摄像头启动、关闭、拍摄、旋转等，投食控制单元设置为控制投食机械单元运动，喂食设备可以利用WIFI/BT单元与用户终端近距离通信连接，利用射频收发单元通过通信网络(如2G/3G/4G/5G/EMTC/NB-IoT等)与服务器、用户终端远距离连接，使得用户可以通过用户终端远程控制喂食设备喂食。其中，WIFI为Wireless Fidelity的缩写，中文名为无线保真，又称为无线宽带、无线网；BT为Blue Tooth的简称，中文名为蓝牙。
采用本发明实施例的宠物喂食方法，宠物主人可以通过终端设备远距离操控喂食设备或通过语音近距离操控喂食设备来使喂食设备以不同的食物投放模式喂食，也可以让喂食设备自动监测宠物状态并选择对应的食物投放模式进行喂食，实现了随时随地让宠物在玩耍中喂食、在喂食中玩耍，从而可以更好地关心和照顾自己的宠物，让它们不感到孤单寂寞，为宠物的精细化照顾管理提供了便利，填补了该领域的空白。
本发明实施例的宠物喂食方法，通过设置两种食物投放模式，当满足第一喂食条件时则采用喂养模式投放食物，当满足第二喂食条件时则采用娱乐模式投放食物，与宠物互动玩耍，从而为喂食设备增加了娱乐互动功能，增强了宠物喂食的趣味性，既锻炼了宠物的身体，又排解了宠物的孤独寂寞，保证了宠物的身心健康。
参照图5，提出本发明的宠物喂食装置一实施例，所述装置应用于喂食设备，包括条件检测模块10、第一喂食模块20和第二喂食模块30，其中：条件检测模块10，设置为检测当前是否满足喂食条件， 该喂食条件包括第一喂食条件和第二喂食条件；第一喂食模块20，设置为当满足第一喂食条件时，采用喂养模式投放食物；第二喂食模块30，设置为当满足第二喂食条件时，采用娱乐模式投放食物。
条件检测模块10实时或定时的检测当前是否满足第一喂食条件或第二喂食条件。具体实施时，条件检测模块10可以通过以下方案检测当前是否满足喂食条件。
可选地，条件检测模块10如图6所示，包括监测单元11和第一确定单元12，其中：监测单元11，设置为通过摄像头监测宠物状态；第一确定单元12，设置为根据宠物状态确定当前是否满足喂食条件。
作为一实例，第一确定单元12如图7所示，包括第一判断子单元121和第一确定子单元122，其中：第一判断子单元121，设置为根据宠物状态判断宠物是否处于饥饿状态或无聊状态；第一确定子单元122，设置为当宠物处于所述饥饿状态时，确定当前满足第一喂食条件；当宠物处于无聊状态时，确定当前满足第二喂食条件。
例如，当监测单元11监测到的宠物状态为宠物在喂食设备附近寻找食物和/或吠叫(特别是对着喂食设备吠叫)时，第一判断子单元121则判定宠物处于饥饿状态。一般的，若监测单元11检测到宠物离喂食设备的距离小于预设距离(如1米以内)或小于预设距离且持续预设时间(如2分钟)，第一判断子单元121则认定宠物在喂食设备附近；若监测到宠物低头在地上来回寻找，第一判断子单元121则认定宠物在寻找食物。此外，第一判断子单元121还可以根据宠物饥饿时可能表现出的其它状态来确定宠物是否饥饿，本发明对此不作限定。
又如，当监测单元11监测到的宠物状态为宠物长时间睡觉、发呆或闲逛时，第一判断子单元121则判定宠物处于无聊状态。所述的长时间睡觉如持续睡觉1个小时左右，所述的长时间发呆如持续发呆(睁着眼睛不走动)20-30分钟，所述的长时间闲逛如持续闲逛(来回走到)20-30分钟。此外，第一判断子单元121还可以根据宠物无聊时可能表现出的其它状态来确定宠物是否无聊，如当宠物远距离(如距离喂食设备2米以上)的对着喂食设备吠叫时也可以判定宠物 处于无聊状态，本发明对此不作限定。
本方案中，喂食设备可以通过主动监测宠物状态来自动选择对应的食物投放模式进行喂食，智能化程度高，特别适合用户无暇照顾宠物的情形。
可选地，条件检测模块10如图8所示，包括监视单元13、接收单元14和第二确定单元15，其中：监视单元13，设置为通过摄像头监视宠物，并将监视画面发送给用户终端；接收单元14，设置为接收用户终端发送的第一喂食指令或第二喂食指令；第二确定单元15，设置为当接收到第一喂食指令时，确定当前满足第一喂食条件；当接收到第二喂食指令时，确定当前满足第二喂食条件。
监视单元13通过摄像头跟踪拍摄宠物，并将拍摄到的监视画面实时或定时的发送给用户终端，可以是直接发送给用户终端，也可以通过服务器发送给用户终端。接收单元14接收用户终端发送的喂食指令，判断该喂食指令为第一喂食指令还是第二喂食指令，并通知第二确定单元15。
本方案中，用户可以远程监视宠物，并根据宠物状态远程控制喂食设备以相应的食物投放模式喂食，特别适合用户离家外出的情形，使得用户即使在外面也能照顾家里的宠物或与宠物娱乐互动。
可选地，条件检测模块10如图9所示，包括时间获取单元16和第三确定单元17，其中：时间获取单元16，设置为获取当前的时间信息；第三确定单元17，设置为根据时间信息确定当前是否满足喂食条件。
第三确定单元17如图10所示，包括第二判断子单元171和第三确定子单元172，其中：第二判断子单元171，设置为根据时间信息判断当前是否处于第一喂食时间段或第二喂食时间段；第三确定子单元172，设置为当处于第一喂食时间段时，确定当前满足第一喂食条件；当处于第二喂食时间段时，确定当前满足第二喂食条件。
本方案中，宠物喂食装置可以根据用户设置的喂食时间自动以对应的食物投放模式喂食，智能化程度高，特别适合用户无暇照顾宠物的情形。
可选地，用户也可以直接向喂食设备发布(或下达)对应的喂食指令，条件检测模块10接收到用户发布的第一喂食指令时，确定满足第一喂食条件，接收到用户发布的第二喂食指令时，确定满足第二喂食条件。
用户可以通过语音、触控、手势、按键等控制方式向喂食设备发布喂食指令。例如，用户向喂食设备发出语音指令，条件检测模块10接收语音指令，并将该语音指令识别为文字信息，解析该文字信息，根据解析结果确定该语音指令是否为第一喂食指令或第二喂食指令。
本方案中，用户可以直接操控喂食设备以相应的食物投放模式喂食，适合用户在家的情形，使得用户可以在家照顾宠物或与宠物娱乐互动。
在具体实施时，可以将前述四种方案中的至少两种方式结合起来实施。
当满足第一喂食条件时，说明宠物当前比较饥饿，则由第一喂食模块20采用喂养模式投放食物进行喂食。具体实施时，第一喂食模块20可以近距离投放食物和/或将食物投放在同一位置，比如将食物投放在距离喂食设备1米以内的固定区域内，使得宠物能够快速进食，解除饥饿状态。
当满足第二喂食条件时，说明宠物当前比较无聊，第二喂食模块30则采用娱乐模式投放食物进行喂食。具体实施时，第二喂食模块30可以远距离投放食物和/或将食物分别投放在不同位置，比如：将食物向上抛出投放在距离喂食设备3米以外的区域，让宠物跳跃接取食物；或者喂食设备的投食嘴来回转动或改变投食角度以将食物投向不同的方向，让宠物来回跑动接取食物；或者利用投食设备不同朝向的至少两个投食嘴交替投放食物以将食物投向不同的方向，让宠物来回跑动接取食物；等等。
此外，两种食物投放模式投放食物的种类和/或数量还可以有所不同，如：第二喂食模块30以娱乐模式投放食物时，优选投放体积较大的固态食物，每次投放一个固态食物，且娱乐模式投放的食物量 少于喂食模式投放的食物量。
从而使得宠物一边吃食物，一边运动玩耍，增强了宠物喂食的趣味性，既锻炼了宠物的身体，又排解了宠物的孤独寂寞，保证了宠物的身心健康。
