Detailed ways

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

The embodiment of the present application provides a method for recognizing a target area, which can be applied to a smart home. For example, the smart home may be a sweeping robot for recognizing a target area and adopting a corresponding cleaning mode for the target area.

In the following, in conjunction with specific implementations, a method for identifying a target area provided by an embodiment of the present application will be described in detail, as shown in FIG. 1, and the specific steps are as follows:

Step 101: Obtain a detection image in a target area through an image capturing device, and determine whether the detection image contains a furniture image.

In the embodiment of the present application, the image capturing device is installed on the smart home, and the smart home can move autonomously in the room, and the image capturing device can capture images of various parts of the room. The smart home detects the image information contained in the image to determine whether the image contains an image of furniture. If the smart home detects that the image contains a furniture image, step 102 is executed; if the smart home detects that the image does not contain a furniture image, it continues to receive and detect the image sent by the image capturing device.

Step 102: If the detection image includes a furniture image, determine the target furniture type in the furniture image, and determine the function of the target area according to the target furniture type.

In the embodiment of the present application, if the smart home detects that the image contains a furniture image, the smart home determines the type of the target furniture in the image, and determines the function of the target area according to the type of the target furniture.

Optionally, the function of the smart home to determine the target area according to the target furniture type includes: determining the function of the target area corresponding to the target furniture type according to a pre-stored correspondence between the furniture type and the function of the area.

In the embodiment of the present application, when the smart home detects that the image contains a furniture image, the smart home analyzes the characteristics of the target furniture through a recognition algorithm, and determines the type of the target furniture according to the characteristics of the target furniture. The smart home determines the function of the target area corresponding to the target furniture type according to the pre-stored correspondence between the furniture type and the area function.

For example, the smart home detects that the image contains furniture images, and after analyzing the characteristics of the target furniture through image recognition algorithms, it determines that the type of the target furniture is a bed. The smart home determines the type of furniture and the corresponding relationship between the furniture type and the regional function. The function of the target area corresponding to the bed is a rest function.

Step 103: Determine a target cleaning mode corresponding to the function of the target area according to the corresponding relationship between the function of the area and the cleaning mode.

In the embodiment of the present application, the smart home determines the target cleaning mode corresponding to the function of the target area according to the corresponding relationship between the function of the area and the cleaning mode.

For example, when the smart home detects that the function of the target area is the rest function, the smart home determines that the target cleaning mode corresponding to the rest function is the silent cleaning mode according to the preset corresponding relationship between the function of the area and the cleaning mode; or, the smart home When detecting that the function of the target area is the cooking function, the smart home determines that the target cleaning mode corresponding to the cooking function is the powerful cleaning mode according to the preset correspondence between the function of the area and the cleaning mode.

The smart home can also detect the area information of the target area through lidar. In the embodiment of the present application, the area information includes the size, shape, and location of the target area. Specifically, after the smart home moves to the target area, the lidar installed on the smart home emits a continuous electromagnetic wave signal into the environment. The electromagnetic wave signal will return to the lidar when it hits the boundary of the target area. The smart home is based on the received laser light. The radar echo signal analyzes the echo signal and obtains the area information of the target area. Specifically, the smart home analyzes the echo signal to obtain the size, shape and location of the target area.

The smart home obtains the location of the target area. Specifically, if there are multiple target areas, the first target area reached by the smart home is called the first target area, and the second target area reached by the smart home is called the second target area. , And so on, the Nth target area reached by the smart home is called the Nth target area. The location of the first target area is the distance and azimuth of the first target area relative to the starting position of the smart home, and the location of the second target area is the distance and azimuth of the second target area relative to the starting position of the smart home, or The distance and orientation of the second target area relative to a point in the first target area. The location of the Nth target area is the distance and azimuth of the Nth target area relative to the starting position of the smart home, or the distance and azimuth of the Nth target area relative to a point in the ith target area, where N is positive Integer, i≤N.

For example, if the starting position of the smart home is in the center of the living room, then a plane coordinate system is established with the center of the living room as the origin, and the first target area of the smart home is the bedroom. Then determine the distance and orientation of the bedroom relative to the center of the living room to determine the bedroom’s position. Location; the second target area of the smart home is the kitchen, then determine the distance and orientation of the kitchen relative to the center of the living room to determine the location of the kitchen, or determine the distance and orientation of the kitchen relative to a certain point in the bedroom to determine the kitchen s position. After the smart home has determined the location of all target areas, the layout of the entire house and the location of each room can be obtained.

The smart home displays the area information of the target area through the display device for the user to view. The user sets the target name for the target area, the smart home receives the target name of the target area, and establishes a correspondence between the target name and the function of the target area.

For example, a smart home includes multiple target areas, among which the first target area is the rest function, and the target name set by the user for the first target area is the bedroom, then the smart home establishes a corresponding relationship between the bedroom and the rest function; The second target area is the cooking function, and the target name set by the user for the second target area is the kitchen, then the smart home establishes a corresponding relationship between the kitchen and the cooking function.

In the embodiment of the present application, if the smart home determines that the current area is a non-target area, the smart home determines the location of the target area corresponding to the target name according to the corresponding relationship between the area name and the location of the area.

For example, after the smart home receives a cleaning instruction of "clean the bedroom", if the smart home determines that the current area is not a bedroom, the smart home can determine the location of the bedroom.

Step 402: Determine the route of the target area according to the location of each area, the current location and the location of the target area.

In the embodiment of the present application, the smart home obtains its current location through the SLAM algorithm, and according to the location of each area in the house, the current location of the smart home and the location of the target area, the current location to the location of the target area can be determined The route to the target area.
