detailed description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application are clearly and completely described in the following with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. It is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without departing from the inventive scope are the scope of the present application.

As shown in FIG. 1 , the embodiment of the present application provides a mobile terminal positioning method, which may include:

S100. Obtain a signal strength of a wireless signal that is sent by the mobile terminal to the at least two signal receiving devices at a first moment, and determine the obtained signal strength as an intensity group, where the setting positions of the at least two signal receiving devices are at a level Different in direction;

Wherein, the horizontal direction may be a horizontal plane direction, and when the set positions of the at least two signal receiving devices are different in the horizontal direction, the projection positions of the set positions of the at least two signal receiving devices on the horizontal plane are different.

The mobile terminal positioning method provided by the embodiment of the present application may be applied to a signal receiving device, and may also be applied to other devices (such as a router or a server) that are in communication connection with the signal receiving device.

In a practical application, a mobile terminal positioning method provided by an embodiment of the present application is used to determine whether a mobile terminal is located in a viewing area block of a video playing device. The video playing device can be a television, a computer, a mobile phone, a tablet, a projector, and the like.

The signal receiving device can be a gateway, and the gateway is also called an inter-network connector and a protocol converter, and can implement network interconnection between two devices or two systems with different communication protocols.

The mobile terminal can be an electronic device that the user often carries with him, such as a communication device such as a mobile phone or a smart wearable device such as a wristband. The mobile terminal can also be an electronic device that is often used by a user when watching a video, such as a remote controller.

In practical applications, the signal receiving device may first match the mobile terminal to record each other's device identifications and communicate according to the recorded device identification. Specifically, the mobile terminal may send the wireless signal to the matched signal receiving device according to a preset time period. The wireless signal transmitted by the mobile terminal may be in various forms, such as Bluetooth, infrared, radio frequency identification (RFID, Radio Frequency Identification), and the like. The signal content of the wireless signal transmitted by the mobile terminal may be any, and is not limited herein.

Optionally, the signal receiving device may be set in the area block where the video playing device is located, or may be set in the best viewing area of the video playing device. Of course, the signal receiving device may also be set in other area blocks, and the present application does not Make a limit.

For the sake of understanding, the specific solutions of the present application will be described by using the two signal receiving devices of the first signal receiving device and the second signal receiving device as an example.

The signal strengths of the wireless signals transmitted by the mobile terminal at the first moment to the first signal receiving device and the second signal receiving device are: A ₁ and B _{1 respectively} , and the present application can determine A ₁ and B ₁ as an intensity group: (A ₁ , B ₁ ).

Among them, the intensity group in the present application can be expressed in various ways, such as an array, and is not limited to (A ₁ , B ₁ ).

It should be noted that, when the present application is used to determine the area block in which the mobile terminal is located, since the moving distance of the mobile terminal in the horizontal direction is large and the moving distance in the height direction is small, the present application can apply the mobile terminal in three dimensions. The movement in the space is simplified to the movement in the horizontal direction, that is, the movement of the mobile terminal in the height direction is ignored. Of course, this processing method may cause some small errors in the positioning result of the mobile terminal. In order to reduce this error, the present application can set each signal receiving device within a normal range of movement of the mobile terminal in the height direction. For example, if the mobile terminal is a wristband and the normal movement range of the user carrying the wristband in the height direction is 0.3 meters to 1.2 meters, the present application can set the signal receiving device within a height range of 0.3 meters to 1.2 meters. Preferably, the present application can set the signal receiving device at an intermediate height of the above conventional moving range. For example, if the normal moving range is 0.3 meters to 1.2 meters, the signal receiving device can be set at a height of 0.75 meters.

In practical applications, the set heights of the at least two signal receiving devices may be the same.

In practical applications, there are various methods for determining the distance between two devices by the signal strength of the wireless signals between the two devices. One of the following examples is provided:

Through formula

D=10^((abs(RSSI)-A)/(10*n))

Calculating the distance D between the mobile terminal and the signal receiving device, wherein the RSSI is the signal strength of the wireless signal received by the signal receiving device (the wireless signal is sent by the mobile terminal), and A is the distance between the mobile terminal and the signal receiving device. The signal strength of the wireless signal obtained by the signal receiving device (the wireless signal is sent by the mobile terminal), and n is the environmental attenuation factor.

Optionally, the reference distance may be a preset distance, such as 1 meter. It can be seen from the above formula that when the environmental attenuation factors in a certain block are the same, the distance D between the two devices is only related to the signal strength of the signals transmitted between the two devices.

2 and 3 are top views of the positional relationship between the signal receiving device and the mobile terminal. As shown in FIG. 2, when the set positions of the respective signal receiving apparatuses 001 are the same in the horizontal direction, when the mobile terminal 004 moves on the circumference of a circle centered on each of the signal receiving apparatuses 001, for each of the signal receiving apparatuses 001 It is to be noted that since the distance between the mobile terminal 004 and the signal receiving device 001 is R ₁ , the signal strength of the wireless signal transmitted by the mobile terminal 004 to the signal receiving device 001 does not change. In this case, when the signal strength of the wireless signal transmitted by the mobile terminal 004 to each of the signal receiving devices 001 is known, only the circle on which the mobile terminal 004 is located can be determined, and the mobile terminal 004 cannot be more accurately determined. position. The dotted rectangle shown in Figure 2 is the area occupied by the room where the video playback device is located.

When the set positions of the signal receiving devices are different in the horizontal direction, for example, the first signal receiving device 002 and the second signal receiving device 003 are disposed at the position as shown in FIG. When the mobile terminal 004 moves, the radius R ₁ of the circle corresponding to the circumference where the mobile terminal is located may be determined according to the signal strength of the wireless signal transmitted by the mobile terminal 004 to the first signal receiving device 002. Similarly, the radius R ₂ of the circle corresponding to the circumference where the mobile terminal is located may be determined according to the signal strength of the wireless signal transmitted from the mobile terminal 004 to the second signal receiving device 003. In this way, the position of the mobile terminal can be more accurately located through the two round applications. The dotted rectangle shown in Figure 3 is the area occupied by the room where the video playback device is located. In practical applications, the present application may only locate mobile terminals in an area occupied by a room in which the video playing device is located.

S200: Align the strength group with the intensity group corresponding to each of the preset multiple area blocks, and determine the area block where the mobile terminal is located according to the comparison result.

It can be understood that when the set positions of the at least two signal receiving devices are different in the horizontal direction, the signal strengths of the wireless signals transmitted by the mobile terminal to the at least two signal receiving devices at different positions are not all the same. For example, if the signal strengths of the wireless signals transmitted by the mobile terminal to the first signal receiving device and the second signal receiving device at the A position are the first strength and the second intensity, respectively, the mobile terminal sends the signal to the first point at any point not being A. The signal strengths of the wireless signals of a signal receiving device and the second signal receiving device are not the first intensity and the second intensity, respectively.

On this basis, the application can divide the area to be tested (for example, the area corresponding to the room where the video playing device is located) into a plurality of area blocks, and then obtain a signal transmitting device (for simulating the mobile terminal) to send to each center block center to The signal strength of the wireless signal of each signal receiving device. In this way, when the signal strength of the wireless signal transmitted by the mobile terminal to each signal transmitting device is obtained, the area block in which the mobile terminal is located can be determined by comparison.

The signal sending device in the embodiment of the present application may be a beacon device (such as a Bluetooth beacon) or a mobile terminal.

For ease of understanding, the following description will be made in conjunction with FIG. 4:

As shown in FIG. 4, the present application divides the living room into 6 rows and 13 columns and a total of 78 area blocks. For convenience, this application uses the row number and column number of each area block to indicate each area block, for example, A ₁ B ₁ area block. It is a block of area number A ₁ and column number B ₁ . The application can determine the signal strength of the wireless signal sent by the signal transmitting device to the first signal receiving device 002 and the second signal receiving device 003 in a certain area block to be an intensity group corresponding to the area block. In this way, the present application can obtain the intensity groups corresponding to the respective 78 regional blocks. When the present application obtains the signal strengths of the wireless signals transmitted by the mobile terminal 004 to the first signal receiving device 002 and the second signal receiving device 003, respectively, an intensity group can also be obtained. The present application can compare the intensity group with the intensity group corresponding to each of the 78 area blocks, and determine the intensity group closest to the intensity group in the intensity group corresponding to each of the 78 area blocks, and the closest intensity. The area block corresponding to the group is determined as the area block in which the mobile terminal 004 is located.

In an actual application, as shown in FIG. 5, step S200 may specifically include:

S210. Align the determined intensity group with the intensity group corresponding to each of the preset plurality of area blocks, and obtain an intensity group that is closest to the determined intensity group in the intensity group corresponding to each of the preset plurality of area blocks;

Among them, there are various ways to determine whether they are closest to each other, and the following application exemplarily provides one of them:

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, step S210 may include:

S211: For each of the at least two signal receiving devices, the signal strength of the wireless signal received by the signal receiving device in the determined intensity group is respectively calculated according to the intensity group corresponding to each of the preset multiple regions. The absolute value of the difference in signal strength of the wireless signal received by the signal receiving device;

S212. Obtain an absolute value of a difference corresponding to each area block according to a correspondence between a preset plurality of area blocks and an intensity group in which the signal strength used in the calculation of the absolute value of the difference is performed;

S213. For each area block, perform a summation operation on the absolute values of the differences corresponding to the area block, and obtain a sum of difference values corresponding to the area block.

S214. Determine an intensity group corresponding to the area block corresponding to the sum of the smallest differences as the intensity group closest to the determined intensity group.

The following is an example with reference to FIG. 4:

Each of the 78 area blocks in FIG. 4 corresponds to an intensity group (S _1i , S _2i ), wherein S _{1i is} a wireless signal sent by the signal transmitting device to the first signal receiving device 002 in the area block. The signal strength, S _{2i is} the signal strength of the wireless signal transmitted by the signal transmitting device to the second signal receiving device 003 in the region block. i is the area block number, and i is the value from 1 to 78. The intensity group determined in step S100 is (S ₁ , S ₂ ), where S ₁ is the signal strength of the wireless signal transmitted by the mobile terminal to the first signal receiving device 002, and S ₂ is sent by the mobile terminal to the second signal receiving device. 003 The signal strength of the wireless signal. Then, for the first signal receiving device 002, the absolute value of the difference between S ₁ and each of S _1i , that is, |S ₁ -S _1i |, can be calculated. Correspondingly, for the second signal receiving device 003, the absolute value of the difference between S ₂ and each S _2i can be calculated, that is, |S ₂ -S _2i |.

For each of the area blocks: When i is the number of the area block, |S ₁ -S _1i | and |S ₂ -S _2i | may be determined as the absolute value of the difference corresponding to the area block. Then, |S ₁ -S _1i | and |S ₂ -S _2i | corresponding to each area block are summed, and the sum of the differences corresponding to the area block is obtained, that is: |S ₁ -S _1i |+| S ₂ -S _2i |. |S ₁ -S _1i |+|S ₂ -S _2i | The smaller the distance, the signal strength of the wireless signal transmitted by the mobile terminal 004 to the two signal receiving devices shown in FIG. 4 and the |S ₁ -S _1i |+|S ₂ -S _2i | The signal transmission devices in the corresponding area blocks respectively transmit the signal strengths of the wireless signals transmitted to the two signal receiving apparatuses shown in FIG. 4 to be similar. Therefore, the present application can determine the intensity group corresponding to the region block corresponding to the sum of the smallest differences as the intensity group closest to the determined intensity group.

S220. Determine, as the area block where the mobile terminal is located, the area block corresponding to the closest strength group.

Many existing video playback devices can record the video information played by them and the corresponding time points to generate a viewing record. However, in the process of implementing the present application, the inventor of the present application finds that the video playing device does not represent the user to view the video effectively. Therefore, the present application can determine the area block in which the mobile terminal that the user often carries with him can determine. Whether the mobile terminal is located in the effective viewing area, and thus the effective viewing record in the viewing record can be identified. In this way, the present application can fully and accurately utilize the existing viewing record, and the accurate viewing situation of the user can be obtained without active notification.

When the user is located outside the effective viewing area within a certain period of time, the video played during the time period cannot be effectively viewed by the user. Therefore, the application may not determine the viewing record in the time period as a valid viewing record or within the time period. The viewing history is determined to be an invalid viewing record. In this way, the application realizes the validity identification of the viewing record and improves the accuracy of the viewing rate. At the same time, the application does not require the user to provide its viewing record on its own initiative, which is simple and convenient.

In the prior art, the viewing history of the television program only corresponds to the family, which makes it impossible to determine which family members in a family are watching a certain television program based on the viewing history of the existing television program. Since the mobile terminal has user attributes, the mobile terminals of different users are generally different (for example, each user has his own mobile phone and a wristband), so the present application can determine whether the user of the mobile terminal is located on the television by determining the area block in which the mobile terminal is located. Effective viewing area, even if multiple family members are watching TV programs, can determine the attributes of each family member watching TV programs.

Specifically, the application can identify each mobile terminal by using a device identifier of the mobile terminal, such as a Universally Unique Identifier (UUID), and thereby identify each user. In this way, the application can generate an effective viewing record for each user, making the viewing record more accurate. For example: from 12 o'clock to 13:00, the hostess of a family carries a mobile phone and sits on the sofa to watch the A program. From 13:00 to 14:00, the family’s male owner wore a bracelet on the treadmill next to the TV while watching B. The prior art generates a viewing record of the A program and the B program from 12 o'clock to 14 o'clock and corresponds the viewing record to the family (for example, Unit 1 101 of the C cell 1 building), but cannot accurately determine the viewing history and The correspondence between different users in the family. The present application can generate a viewing record of the A program corresponding to the hostess in the family from 12 o'clock to 13 o'clock and a viewing record of the B program corresponding to the male host from 13 o'clock to 14 o'clock.

After the viewing record and the user correspond, the application can perform statistics and analysis on different types of user-friendly videos according to the user's information (such as identity information, income information, geographic location information, etc.), thereby more accurately determining different users. Likes. Further, the present application can perform targeted content push, such as advertisement push, according to the determined preferences of different users.

Preferably, the application can push the push content matched with the user when the user's mobile terminal is located in the effective viewing area. This ensures that the pushed content is viewed by the user who likes the content, improving the push effect.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7, the method for obtaining the strength group corresponding to the preset multiple area blocks may include:

S110. Obtain an environmental attenuation factor of the preset plurality of area blocks.

The present application can obtain an environmental attenuation factor by measuring and calculating a plurality of regional blocks.

S120. For each of the preset plurality of regional blocks, according to the environmental attenuation factor and the distance between the regional block and the at least two signal receiving devices respectively, the mobile terminal in the regional block is sent to the mobile terminal. The signal strengths of the wireless signals of the at least two signal receiving devices determine the obtained signal strength as the intensity group corresponding to the area block.

In practical applications, after obtaining the environmental attenuation factor, the present application can calculate the signal strength of the wireless signal sent by the signal transmitting device to each signal receiving device in each region block by using the environmental attenuation factor, without 78 in FIG. A signal transmitting device is provided in each of the area blocks to actually measure the signal strength of the wireless signal transmitted by the signal transmitting device to each of the signal receiving devices in each of the area blocks.

Specifically, this application can pass the formula

RSSI(d)=10*n*lg(d)+A

The signal strength RSSI(d) of the wireless signal transmitted from the signal transmitting device of the distance d to the signal receiving device is calculated.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8, step S110 may include:

S111. Obtain a signal strength of a wireless signal for testing sent by each signal sending device to the at least two signal receiving devices, and obtain a distance between each of the signal sending devices and each of the signal receiving devices, where At least one of the signal issuing devices is disposed in each of the preset plurality of regional blocks.

For ease of understanding, the following is an example with reference to the accompanying drawings:

As shown in FIG. 9, the embodiment of the present application may select six of the 78 area blocks shown in FIG. 4, and use the center of the six area blocks as a device installation point. Specifically, the embodiment of the present application can install two signal receiving devices and four signal transmitting devices at the center points A to F of the six regional blocks to obtain the environmental attenuation factors of the 78 regional blocks.

Optionally, the first signal receiving device of the at least two signal receiving devices is located in the first area block, and the second signal receiving device of the at least two signal receiving devices is located in the second area block,

The first area block is a video display area of the video playing device, and the video display area may be a screen for playing a video in a video playing device, a screen, or the like, or may be a marker of a nearby video playing device such as a set top box. The second area block is the best viewing area of the video display area, and the best viewing area can be the area where the bedding is located, and the sitting bedding can be: sofa, chair, stool, bed, tatami, bathtub, etc.;

Or the first area block and the second area block are respectively located on the left and right sides of the video display area of the video playing device;

Alternatively, the first area block and the second area block respectively have left and right sides of an optimal viewing area of the video display area.

As shown in Figure 9, the area block where the B point is located is the video display area of the video playback device, and the area block where the E point is located is the best viewing area of the video display area. Then: the first signal receiving device and the second signal receiving device may be respectively set at point B and point E; or respectively set at point A and point C (points A and C are respectively located at the left and right sides of point B); or respectively Set at point D and point F (points D and F are located on the left and right sides of point E). Of course, the first signal receiving device and the second signal receiving device may also be respectively disposed at the center points of other area blocks, which is not limited in this application. After the setting positions of the first signal receiving device and the second signal receiving device are determined, the present application may set four signal transmitting devices respectively at the center points of the remaining four region blocks.

After selecting the setting positions of the respective signal transmitting devices and the respective signal receiving devices, the embodiment of the present application can measure and/or calculate the distance between any two set positions. As shown in FIG. 10, after determining that the position of each of the signal transmitting devices and the respective signal receiving devices is from the point A to the point F, any of the distances D1 to D13 shown in FIG. 10 can be obtained as needed.

S112. Determine an environmental attenuation factor of the preset plurality of regional blocks according to a distance between each of the signal sending devices and each of the signal receiving devices and a signal strength of the wireless signal for testing.

Step S112 may specifically include:

For each device group: determining an environmental attenuation factor corresponding to the device group according to the signal strength of the wireless signal for testing transmitted between the two devices in the device group and the distance between the two devices in the device group, wherein each Each device group is composed of one signal issuing device and one signal receiving device, and the signal issuing device and the signal receiving device in each device group are different at the same time;

Determining an environmental attenuation factor of the preset plurality of regional blocks according to an environmental attenuation factor corresponding to each device group.

As shown in FIG. 11 , when the first signal receiving device and the second signal receiving device are respectively disposed at points A and C, and four signal transmitting devices are respectively set at points B, D, E, and F, the present application Embodiments can obtain these distances D1, D2, D8 to D13. Through these distances and the signal strengths of the wireless signals transmitted by the four signal transmitting devices to the first signal receiving device and the second signal receiving device respectively, the embodiment of the present application can calculate points B, D, E, and F, respectively.

The embodiment of the present application can further calculate the environmental attenuation factor of the 78 regional blocks as a whole according to n ₁ to n ₈ . Specifically, the average value of the environmental attenuation factor corresponding to each device group can be used as the environmental attenuation factor of the preset plurality of regional blocks, that is, the average value of n ₁ to n ₈ is determined as the 78 regional blocks. The overall environmental attenuation factor. As shown in FIG. 12, when the first signal receiving device and the second signal receiving device are respectively disposed at points D and F, and four signal transmitting devices are respectively set at points A, B, C, and E, the present application The embodiment can obtain the distances shown in FIG. 12 and obtain the environmental attenuation factors of the plurality of area blocks based on the distances.

It should be noted that since the environmental attenuation factor is easily affected by the obstacles and the like, when the environmental attenuation factor corresponding to a certain device group is large, it indicates that there may be a barrier between the two devices in the device group. In order to prevent the effect of the barrier on the overall range of environmental attenuation factor calculations, the present application may delete the environmental attenuation factor caused by the barrier.

As shown in FIG. 14, the embodiment of the present application further provides a method for processing a viewing record, which may include:

S001: Obtain time information that the area block where the mobile terminal is located is located in the effective viewing area of the video playing device, where the area block where the mobile terminal is located is determined by the positioning method of the mobile terminal provided by the embodiment of the present application;

The effective viewing area may be an area capable of receiving the video played by the video playing device, and the effective viewing area may be determined according to the position and the viewable angle of the video playing device.

The effective viewing area may include: a primary effective viewing area and a secondary effective viewing area.

Wherein, step S001 may include:

Recording, according to the correspondence between the area block and the effective viewing area, at least one entry time of the mobile terminal entering the effective viewing area of the video playing device and at least one leaving time of the mobile terminal leaving the effective viewing area of the video playing device;

Dividing the entry time and the departure time into at least one time group, each time group includes an entry time and an departure time later than the entry time, and an entry time and an exit time in the same time group There are no other entry and exit times.

The corresponding relationship between the area block where the mobile terminal obtained by the application is located and the effective viewing area may be various, and one of the following is provided by way of example:

As shown in FIG. 15, the present application determines a triangular effective viewing area as shown in 009 according to the location of the television 005 and the viewable angle 007 of the television 005. In this way, after determining the area block in which the mobile terminal 004 is located, the present application determines whether the mobile terminal 004 is located in the effective viewing area according to the correspondence between the area block in which the mobile terminal is located and the effective viewing area. The corresponding relationship between the area block where the mobile terminal is located and the effective viewing area may be as shown in FIG. 16 , and each area block filled with the oblique line corresponds to the effective viewing area, and when the mobile terminal 004 is located in each area block filled with the oblique line. When it is inside, it is determined that the mobile terminal 004 is located in the effective viewing area.

S002: Process the viewing record of the video playing device according to the time information, and obtain an effective viewing record.

After obtaining the effective viewing record, the present application may store the effective viewing record in association with the device identifier of the mobile terminal, or store the effective viewing record in association with the identifier of the user of the mobile terminal.

The step S002 may include:

Determining the time interval between the departure time and the entry time in each time group;

Determining a time group having a time interval not less than a preset time length as a valid time group;

For each of the valid time groups, the viewing record of the video playing device between the leaving time and the entering time in the effective time group is determined as a valid viewing record.

In practical applications, the user often carries the mobile terminal to move around (for example, to take things to the living room, etc.), and if the preset duration is not limited, the viewing record that the user does not view may be determined as a valid viewing record. Therefore, the present application can avoid this situation by comparing the time interval with the preset duration, thereby improving the accuracy of the effective viewing record.

In the prior art, the viewing record of the television program only corresponds to the family, which makes it impossible to determine which family members in a family are watching a certain television program based on the viewing history of the existing television program. Since the mobile terminal has user attributes, the mobile terminals of different users are generally different (for example, each user has his own mobile phone and a wristband), so the present application can determine the user of the mobile terminal by determining whether the mobile terminal is located in the effective viewing area of the television. Whether it is located in the effective viewing area of the TV, even if multiple family members are watching TV programs, it is possible to determine the attributes of each family member watching the TV program.

Specifically, the application can identify each mobile terminal by using a device identifier of the mobile terminal, such as a Universally Unique Identifier (UUID), and thereby identify each user. In this way, the application can generate an effective viewing record for each user, so that the viewing record is more accurate. For example: from 12 o'clock to 13:00, the hostess of a family carries a mobile phone and sits on the sofa to watch the A program. From 13:00 to 14:00, the family’s male owner wore a bracelet on the treadmill next to the TV while watching B. The prior art generates a viewing record of the A program and the B program from 12 o'clock to 14 o'clock and associates the viewing record with the home (for example, Unit 1 101 of the C cell 1 building), but cannot accurately determine the viewing history and The correspondence between different users in the family. In the present application, it is possible to generate a viewing record of the A program corresponding to the hostess in the family from 12 o'clock to 13 o'clock and a viewing record of the B program corresponding to the male host from 13 o'clock to 14 o'clock.

After the viewing record and the user correspond, the application can perform statistics and analysis on different types of user-friendly videos according to the user's information (such as identity information, income information, geographic location information, etc.), thereby more accurately determining different users. Likes.

Of course, in an actual application, the application may also correspond to the recording record of the television program by the device identifier of the mobile terminal or the user identifier stored in the mobile terminal, and the record generated by the user watching the video on other video playing devices such as a computer or a mobile phone. In order to obtain the viewing record of the same user in the whole network (common name of various networks, including at least: Internet, cable television network, mobile network, etc.). In this way, the application can analyze the viewing record of the user in the whole network environment. The analysis result of the present application is more accurate because the viewing record of the user in the whole network environment more fully and accurately reflects the viewing behavior characteristics of the user.

In an actual application, the present application may record a time interval in which the mobile terminal is located in the effective viewing area of the video playing device, or record the entering time of the mobile terminal entering the effective viewing area and the leaving time of the mobile terminal leaving the effective viewing area. Specifically, the application may periodically determine whether the mobile terminal is located in the effective visible area block and may generate an area block record in each determination. The area block record may include: whether the mobile terminal is located in the effective viewing area. The indication information and the area block record generation time information. The present application can read each block record one by one to determine an entry time and an exit time and obtain the above time group.

Correspondingly, the present application can also obtain a plurality of viewing records and sequentially read each viewing record to obtain a generation time of each viewing record, thereby determining a valid viewing record between the effective time groups. Further, the present application may also determine the viewing duration of the valid viewing record based on the effective viewing history of the generation time between the effective time groups.

In other embodiments of the present application, the viewing record processing method shown in FIG. 14 may further include: obtaining information of an application running in the mobile terminal. Based on this, step S002 may specifically include:

And processing the viewing record of the video playing device according to the time information and the information of the application to obtain an effective viewing record.

The application can specifically obtain name information and/or type information of an application running in the mobile terminal.

The processing of the viewing record of the video playing device according to the time information and the information of the application program to obtain the effective viewing record may specifically include:

Determining, according to the obtained information of the application, whether the application running in the mobile terminal satisfies a preset requirement, and obtaining running period information of the application that meets the preset requirement;

And processing the viewing record of the video playing device according to the running period information and the time information to obtain an effective viewing record.

The preset requirement may be that the application running in the mobile terminal is not a preset application. Alternatively, the preset requirement may be that the application running in the mobile terminal is not a preset type of application. The preset type may be an application type that requires the user to look at the screen of the mobile terminal for a long time, for example, a game application, a video playback application, and the like. Correspondingly, the above preset application may be an application that requires the user to look at the screen of the mobile terminal for a long time.

When an application running through a mobile terminal requires the user to look at the screen for a long time, the user cannot effectively view the video played by the video playing device during the running of the application. For example, when a user plays a game on a sofa, the television is playing a program, and the user will be affected by the game and cannot effectively watch the program.

It can be seen that the application can determine the effective viewing record in the viewing record according to the information of the application running in the mobile terminal.

Specifically, the application may process the viewing record of the video playing device according to the time information to obtain a first to-be-confirmed viewing record. Correspondingly, the application can process the viewing record of the video playing device according to the running period information, and obtain a second to-be-confirmed viewing record. Then, comparing the first to-be-confirmed viewing record with the second to-be-recognized viewing record, the effective viewing record is determined according to the comparison result.

For example, the application can determine the viewing record existing in both the first to-be-confirmed viewing record and the second to-be-confirmed viewing record as the effective viewing record.

Specifically, the application may also collect the biometric information of the user by using the mobile terminal, and then process the viewing record of the video playing device according to the time information and the biometric information to obtain an effective viewing record.

The biometric information may include heartbeat information, fingerprint information, iris information, and the like of the user. If the user enters the effective viewing area of the video playing device by positioning the mobile terminal, and the user stays longer than the preset duration, it is further determined whether the mobile terminal collects the biometric information of the user, and only the biometric characteristics of the user are collected. The information will determine that the viewing record corresponding to the situation is a valid viewing record, which avoids the miscalculation of the viewing record when the user does not wear the mobile terminal and the mobile terminal is placed in the effective viewing area. When the mobile terminal of another person is used by the same household user, the user's unique biometric information such as the fingerprint information and the iris information of the user can also determine the real user attribute corresponding to the mobile terminal, and ensure the accuracy of the statistical result of the viewing record.
