[0119] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0120] Figure 1 is a flowchart of a method for controlling an electronic device according to a first exemplary embodiment; the method for controlling an electronic device can be applied to a control device of a device such as a television. Figure 1 As shown, the method for controlling an electronic device includes the following steps S101-S102:

[0121] In step S101: if the environment of the electronic device meets the boot condition, the electronic device is controlled to enter a background startup program.

[0122] In this embodiment, the control device can determine in real time whether the environment of the electronic device (such as a television, etc.) meets the startup conditions, and when it is determined that the environment of the electronic device meets the startup conditions, the electronic device can be controlled to enter the background startup program.

[0123] Optionally, the control device may be disposed in the electronic device to be controlled, or may be disposed in a remote control device (eg, a remote controller) for controlling the electronic device, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0124] For example, the control device may collect relevant information about the environment in which the electronic device is located in real time through preset sensors, and then determine whether the environment in which the electronic device is located meets the power-on conditions based on the relevant information.

[0125] It is worth noting that the above-mentioned background startup program can only start the electronic device in the background, but cannot turn on the screen of the electronic device. Since the screen of the electronic device is still turned off at this time, the user does not know that the electronic device has been started in the background. For the user, the electronic device is still in a turned-off state; if a formal startup command is received subsequently, the screen can be turned on to realize the output of the picture.

[0126] In another embodiment, the method for detecting whether the environment of the electronic device meets the power-on condition can also refer to the following Figure 3 The illustrated embodiment will not be described in detail here.

[0127] In step S102: within a preset time period after the operation of controlling the electronic device to enter the background startup program is executed, if a formal startup instruction for starting the electronic device is received, the screen of the electronic device is started.

[0128] It is worth noting that the above preset time period can be set by the developer or user according to actual needs, such as 1 minute, 1.5 minutes, etc., or can be determined based on the statistical results of historical data. For details, please refer to the following Figure 4 The illustrated embodiment will not be described in detail here.

[0129] In this embodiment, after controlling the electronic device to enter the background startup program, if a formal startup instruction for starting the electronic device is received within a preset time period, the screen of the electronic device is started. At this time, since the electronic device has been pre-started, only the screen needs to be started. The startup can be completed within a very short time after the user sends the formal startup instruction, thereby shortening the boot time perceived by the user and improving the user experience.

[0130] From the above description, it can be seen that in this embodiment, when the environment in which the electronic device is located meets the startup conditions, the electronic device is controlled to enter the background startup program and within a preset time period after executing the operation of controlling the electronic device to enter the background startup program, when a formal startup instruction for starting the electronic device is received, the screen of the electronic device is started. It can be understood that the waiting time for the electronic device to start up refers to the time from the user pressing the power button of the startup device to the completion of the startup of the electronic device. In this embodiment, the electronic device starts to start up when the power button of the startup device is pressed in the related technology, and is improved to start the background startup of the electronic device when it is detected that the environment in which the electronic device is located meets the startup conditions, thereby shortening the waiting time for the electronic device to start up by starting the electronic device in advance.

[0131] Figure 2 is a flow chart of a method for controlling an electronic device according to a second exemplary embodiment; the method for controlling an electronic device can be applied to a control device of a device such as a television. Figure 1 As shown, the method for controlling an electronic device includes the following steps S201-S204:

[0132] In step S201: if the environment of the electronic device meets the boot condition, the electronic device is controlled to enter a background startup program.

[0133] The background startup instruction is used to control the electronic device to enter a background startup program.

[0134] In step S202: within a preset time period after executing the operation of controlling the electronic device to enter the background startup program, determine whether a formal startup instruction for starting the electronic device is received: if so, execute step S203; if not, execute step S204.

[0135] In step S203: starting the screen of the electronic device;

[0136] In step S204: a shutdown instruction is sent to the electronic device.

[0137] The shutdown instruction is used to control the electronic device to enter a shutdown procedure.

[0138] The relevant explanations and descriptions of steps S201 - S203 may be found in the above embodiments and will not be elaborated here.

[0139] In this embodiment, within a preset time period after executing the operation of controlling the electronic device to enter the background startup program, if no formal startup instruction for starting the electronic device is received, a shutdown instruction is sent to the electronic device to control the electronic device to enter the shutdown program.

[0140] As can be seen from the above description, this embodiment controls the electronic device to enter a background startup program when the environment in which the electronic device is located meets the startup conditions, and within a preset time period after executing the operation of controlling the electronic device to enter the background startup program, when a formal startup instruction for starting the electronic device is received, the screen of the electronic device is started, and when the formal startup instruction for starting the electronic device is not received, a shutdown instruction is sent to the electronic device to control the electronic device to enter the shutdown program. Since the electronic device starts to start only when the power button of the startup device is pressed in the related technology, it is improved to detect that the electronic device starts the background startup when the environment in which the electronic device is located meets the startup conditions, thereby shortening the waiting time for the electronic device to start up by starting the electronic device in advance, and since the electronic device is controlled to enter the shutdown program when the formal startup instruction is not received, more accurate control of the power on and off of the electronic device can be achieved to meet user needs.

[0141] Figure 3 This is a flowchart showing how to determine whether the environment of an electronic device meets the power-on condition according to an exemplary embodiment; this embodiment is based on the above embodiment and takes how to determine whether the environment of an electronic device meets the power-on condition as an example for exemplary description. Figure 3 As shown, the environment where the electronic device is located meets the power-on condition, which may include the following steps S301-S302:

[0142] In step S301, the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located is obtained through the environment detection module.

[0143] In this embodiment, the control device of the electronic device can obtain the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located through the environment detection module.

[0144] Among them, the above-mentioned environment detection module may include a millimeter wave module, etc., and the millimeter wave module can be installed on the front of the electronic device.

[0145] For example, the above-mentioned millimeter wave module can send electromagnetic waves in the millimeter wave band to a preset area in the environment where the electronic device is located, and receive echoes reflected back after the electromagnetic waves hit an object, and then use a set algorithm to detect the echoes to obtain motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located.

[0146] In one embodiment, the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located may include one or a combination of the following:

[0147] The current speed of the object;

[0148] The speed of the object before the set time;

[0149] The current position of the object;

[0150] The position of the object before the set time;

[0151] Object size.

[0152] In step S302, when the motion data of each object meets the startup condition, it is determined that the environment in which the electronic device is located meets the startup condition.

[0153] In this embodiment, after the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located is obtained by the environment detection module, it can be determined that the environment where the electronic device is located meets the startup condition when the motion data of each object meets the startup condition.

[0154] In one embodiment, the start-up conditions matching the types of the above-mentioned motion data can be freely set based on actual business needs, such as being set to include one or a combination of the following:

[0155] The current speed of the object is less than or equal to the set speed threshold;

[0156] The speed of the object before the set time is less than or equal to the set speed threshold;

[0157] The current position of the object is in the area where objects such as sofas or chairs are located;

[0158] The position of the object before the set time is in the area where objects such as sofas or chairs are located;

[0159] The size of the objects matches the size of the human body.

[0160] From the above description, it can be seen that this embodiment obtains the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located through the environment detection module, and when the motion data of each object meets the startup conditions, it is determined that the environment where the electronic device is located meets the startup conditions. This can accurately judge whether the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located meets the startup conditions, and then determine whether the environment where the electronic device is located meets the startup conditions. This can lay the foundation for controlling the electronic device to enter the background startup program when the environment where the electronic device is located meets the startup conditions.

[0161] Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a flowchart showing how to determine whether the environment of an electronic device meets the power-on condition according to another exemplary embodiment; based on the above embodiment, this embodiment takes how to determine whether the environment of an electronic device meets the power-on condition as an example for exemplary description. Figure 4 As shown, the environment where the electronic device is located meets the power-on condition, and the following steps S401-S403 may be included:

[0162] In step S401, the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located is obtained through the environment detection module.

[0163] In step S402, when the motion data of each object meets the startup condition, it is determined that the environment in which the electronic device is located meets the startup condition.

[0164] The relevant explanations and descriptions of steps S401 - S402 can be found in the above embodiments and will not be elaborated here.

[0165] In step S403, the start condition that meets the abandonment condition is discarded.

[0166] In this embodiment, it can be determined whether the current start condition meets the discard condition based on the set period or frequency, and then the start condition that meets the discard condition can be discarded.

[0167] In one embodiment, the above-mentioned set period can be set by the developer or user according to actual business needs, such as after each boot, every day or every week, etc. This embodiment does not limit this.

[0168] The start-up conditions that meet the abandonment conditions may include one or a combination of the following:

[0169] Start conditions that are not used within the set time;

[0170] A startup condition in which the probability of starting the electronic device is lower than a set threshold.

[0171] It is worth noting that the above-mentioned set time can be set by developers or users according to actual business needs, such as setting it to every day or every week, etc., and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0172] In this embodiment, the probability of starting the electronic device can be statistically calculated based on a set period or frequency, and then when the probability is lower than a set threshold, the corresponding starting condition can be deleted.

[0173] From the above description, it can be seen that this embodiment judges whether the current startup condition meets the abandonment condition, and when the startup condition meets the abandonment condition, discards the startup condition that meets the abandonment condition, which is beneficial to improving the accuracy and efficiency of subsequent judgment of the motion data of various objects in the environment where the electronic device is located based on the retained startup condition, and can further lay the foundation for controlling the electronic device to enter the background startup program when the environment where the electronic device is located meets the power-on condition.

[0174] Figure 5 FIG. 1 is a flowchart showing how to determine whether the environment of an electronic device meets the power-on condition according to another exemplary embodiment; based on the above embodiment, this embodiment takes how to determine whether the environment of an electronic device meets the power-on condition as an example for exemplary description. Figure 3 As shown, the environment where the electronic device is located meets the power-on condition, and the following steps S501-S504 may be included:

[0175] In step S501, after receiving the formal startup instruction, the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located is stored and marked as historical startup data.

[0176] In this embodiment, each time the control device receives the formal startup instruction, it can obtain the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located, and then store and mark the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located as historical startup data.

[0177] Among them, the explanation and description of the above motion data can be found in the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0178] In step S502, the startup condition is updated according to historical startup data.

[0179] In this embodiment, after receiving the formal startup instruction, the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located is stored and marked as historical startup data, and the startup condition can be updated according to the historical startup data.

[0180] In one embodiment, after the motion data of each object in the environment of the electronic device is stored and marked as historical startup data, the current startup condition can be updated based on the characteristics of the historical startup data, for example, the range of relevant data in the current startup condition can be modified based on the value of the historical startup data. For example, if the current historical data contains that the current speed of the user is 0.5 m / s, and the current speed of the object in the current startup condition is 0.2-0.3 m / s, the range can be modified to 0.2-0.5 m / s.

[0181] In step S503, the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located is obtained through the environment detection module.

[0182] In step S504, when the motion data of each object meets the startup condition, it is determined that the environment in which the electronic device is located meets the startup condition.

[0183] The relevant explanations and descriptions of steps S503 - S504 can be found in the above embodiments and will not be elaborated here.

[0184] From the above description, it can be seen that this embodiment stores and marks the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located as historical startup data after receiving the formal startup instruction, and updates the startup conditions according to the historical startup data. This can improve the accuracy of the currently stored startup conditions, and further improve the accuracy of subsequent judgment of the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located based on the startup conditions and control of the electronic device to enter the background startup program.

[0185] Fig. 6A FIG. 1 is a flowchart showing how to determine whether the environment of an electronic device meets the power-on condition according to another exemplary embodiment; based on the above embodiment, this embodiment takes how to determine whether the environment of an electronic device meets the power-on condition as an example for exemplary description. Figure 3 As shown, the environment where the electronic device is located meets the power-on condition, and the following steps S601-S605 may be included:

[0186] In step S601, after receiving the formal startup instruction, the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located is stored and marked as historical startup data.

[0187] In step S602, the startup condition is updated according to historical startup data.

[0188] In step S603, the motion data of each object in the environment where the electronic device is located is obtained through the environment detection module.

[0189] In step S604, when the motion data of each object meets the startup condition, it is determined that the environment in which the electronic device is located meets the startup condition.

[0190] The relevant explanations and descriptions of steps S601 to S604 can be found in the above embodiments and will not be elaborated here.

[0192] The historical startup data has been used to update the startup conditions;

[0193] Historical boot data before the set time;

[0194] Historical startup data before the set number.

[0195] In this embodiment, the control device of the electronic device may also determine whether the current historical startup data meets the data discarding condition based on a set period or frequency, and then discard the historical startup data that meets the data discarding condition.
