Device control method and system thereof

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a device control method. The device control method is applied to a mobile device having an image capturing function, and the mobile device is connected to a communication network. The device control method comprises capturing a first image of a specific area; transmitting a connection signal to a selected electronic device on a device list through the communication network; determining whether an image of the electronic device is in the first image based on whether a response made by the electronic device to the connection signal is received; when it is determined that the image of the electronic device is in the first image, creating a mapping relation between the selected electronic device and the image of the electronic device in the first image; and sending the connection signal to another selected electronic device in the device list, and repeating the device identification and map creating process until all the electronic devices on the device list has been verified. The present disclosure provides a device control system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device control method and a device control system, in particular to a device control method and a device control system using image recognition technology. Background technique [0002] With the development of communication and Internet of Things technology, a single mobile device, such as a smartphone, tablet computer, etc., can control the actions of multiple electronic devices through the network. However, the existing equipment control technology has many deficiencies. For example, the control program icon corresponding to the electronic device can only be displayed on the mobile device in the form of a list, but cannot be presented on the mobile device in the form of stereoscopic visualization, so that the user can only control it by clicking one of the above lists. corresponding electronic equipment. Because the difference between the control program icons corresponding to the electronic equipment is small, it cannot ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

For example, the control program icon corresponding to the electronic device can only be displayed on the mobile device in the form of a list, but cannot be presented on the mobile device in the form of stereoscopic visualization, so that the user can only control it by clicking one of the above lists. Corresponding electronic equipment

Because the difference between the control program icons corresponding to the electronic equipment is small, it cannot be recognized intuitively, and it is prone to wrong control

[0003] In addition, in order to create a control connection between the mobile device and the electronic device to be controlled, the user needs to manually perform multiple settings, specifically including the steps of program search, manual selection of programs, and parameter setting steps, etc. Due to the operation of the system, it takes a long time to wait

[0004] In addition, the control program settings of different electronic devices may require different steps, making the control settings of electronic devices more complicated, causing users to easily make mistakes during the setting process, and once they make mistakes, they need to reset, which brings a lot of inconvenience to users
