[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0026] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples to implement different structures of the present invention. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present invention, the parts and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present invention. In addition, the present invention can repeat reference numbers and / or letters in different examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplification and clarity, and does not itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed.

[0027] In order to solve the problem that the smart control of home appliances in the prior art only simply receives user instructions to turn on the corresponding devices, resulting in poor user experience, the present application provides a control method for home appliances, such as Figure 1 As shown, the steps of the method include:

[0028] Step 101, obtaining the current time and the user's state; wherein the user's state represents the user's position in the current environment and the length of time at the position;

[0029] In a specific example, different times correspond to different home appliances that need to be controlled. For example, at ten o'clock in the morning, it may be necessary to control the smart speaker at home to turn on and the water heater to start heating. At nine o'clock in the evening, it may be necessary to turn on the bedside lamp and control the curtains to be closed. That is, the purpose of obtaining the current time is to determine the user's living habits, because usually, the living habits of users in the same time period are similar. Specifically, machine learning algorithms can be used to analyze user behavior, automatically adjust device operating parameters, and realize personalized smart home control. You can remotely control smart devices in your home through mobile devices, monitor home energy usage in real time, and then input the corresponding historical data into the corresponding neural network model, and then output the time and corresponding home scene mode.

[0030] In addition, the user's status represents the user's location in the current environment and the length of time at that location, for example, the user is sitting on the sofa in the living room for more than two minutes. Or the user is sitting on the chair in the study room for more than one minute. It can be seen that the purpose of obtaining the user's status is to further determine whether the user's living habits are consistent with the usual living habits at the current time. Not every user has the same living habits and schedule every day, but there may be certain differences based on real-time needs.

[0031] Step 102, determining whether to start a home scene mode corresponding to the current time according to the user's state, wherein different home scene modes correspond to different locations in the same time period;

[0032] The different time periods correspond to different preset home scene modes, which can be determined based on historical data corresponding to the user's previous living habits. For example, in the past month, the user almost started washing at around nine o'clock every night. After washing, he closed all the household appliances that did not need to be turned on at about 9:30, intelligently pulled up the curtains, turned on the bedside lamp to read, and turned off the lights to go to bed at about 10:30. It can be seen that in the time period from nine to ten thirty in the evening of the past month, the user's living habits and work and rest were relatively regular and stable. Therefore, the user can be prompted to set a corresponding home scene mode. The home scene mode is to intelligently turn on the water heater at nine o'clock, then intelligently turn on the bathroom light, and then after monitoring the user going to bed, turn off the water heater and the bathroom light, and intelligently turn on the bedside lamp and intelligently pull up the curtains, and automatically turn off the bedside lamp at about ten-thirty. In another example, if in the past month, the user watched TV in the living room for ten days and read in the study room for fifteen days from 3pm to 5pm, then two different home scene modes can be set for the same time period, one for the user in the living room and one for the user in the study room. Therefore, the corresponding home scene mode is activated by monitoring the user's status (in the study room or in the living room). Of course, the above is just an example. It can also be the same time period. More home scene modes can be set according to the user's different locations, and home scene modes corresponding to more time periods can also be set, such as a home scene mode in the time period from 9am to 10am, a home scene mode in the afternoon, etc., which can be set accordingly according to the user's living habits and work and rest schedule.

[0033] Taking this as an example, if it is currently detected that the user is at the bathroom door at 9:05 and has opened the door to enter the bathroom, the home scene mode from 9:00 to 10:30 p.m. will be automatically turned on at this time, that is, the corresponding home appliances will be turned on according to the pre-set home scene mode, without the need for manual control by the user.

[0034] Step 103, when starting the home scene mode corresponding to the current time, determine whether to adjust the light intensity of the currently started lamp after starting the home scene mode according to the current light intensity, wherein starting the home scene mode indicates that one or more corresponding home devices in the home scene mode are started.

[0035] For example, the current time is three o'clock in the afternoon, which is the time for the user to listen to music and read in the study room, and there is also a corresponding home scene mode, that is, at three o'clock in the afternoon, turn on the lights in the study room, turn on the audio system in the study room, and draw the curtains. If the user is in the study room at this time and turns on the corresponding home scene mode, but the user controls the curtains to be opened by voice, the light intensity in the study room is higher than the previous light intensity, then the light intensity can be appropriately lowered at this time, that is, the light intensity does not need to be as high as before. It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present application, after starting the corresponding home scene mode, the current light intensity can be further adjusted intelligently, which not only meets the needs of the current user, but also may further save electricity.

[0036] Through the above steps 101 to 103, in the embodiment of the present application, it can be determined whether to start the home scene mode corresponding to the current time according to the user's status, and in the case of starting the home scene mode corresponding to the current time, it is determined whether to adjust the light intensity of the currently started lamp after starting the home scene mode according to the current light intensity. It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present application, the corresponding home appliance can be started according to the current user's status, and the control of the home appliance is set according to the user's previous living habits and rules. Therefore, the corresponding home scene mode is started in the corresponding time period according to the user's status, without the need for manual control by the user, which further improves the user's control experience of the home appliance. In addition, after starting the corresponding home scene mode, the current light intensity can be further adjusted to further adapt to the user's current needs, which may further save electricity while improving the user experience. Through the embodiment of the present application, the problem of poor user experience in the intelligent control of home appliances in the prior art is solved.

[0037] In a specific example, although the corresponding home scene mode can be activated at the corresponding time, there may be a time when the user does not need to activate the corresponding home scene mode. For example, at 3 pm, the user usually needs to go to the study to read, but one day the user has something to do and does not go to the study to read, so there is no need to activate the scene mode at that time. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain the user's status and then further determine whether to activate the corresponding home scene mode according to the user's status. Therefore, the method of determining whether to activate the home scene mode corresponding to the current time according to the user's status involved in the above step 102 can further include:

[0038] Step 11, obtaining the user's current location in the environment;

[0039] Therefore, in the same time period, there may be multiple home scene modes depending on the user's location. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the user's location before determining whether to further activate the corresponding home scene mode. Therefore, in addition to the relatively fixed living habits of sleeping at night, other living habits and schedules may vary. For example, from nine to ten in the morning, you may do morning exercises at home, or you may postpone morning exercises because of your favorite sports events in the recent period. Or, from three to four in the afternoon, you may be reading or watching a movie. That is, the determination of the home scene in the same time period needs to be determined according to the user's status.

[0040] Step 12, when the location is within the preset area, obtaining the time the user has been in the preset area;

[0041] Step 13, determining whether to start the home scene mode corresponding to the current time based on the comparison result of the duration and the first preset duration.

[0042] In a specific example, the first preset duration can be set according to actual needs. For example, if the current time is 3 pm, and the user enters the living room and sits on the sofa to watch TV, the TV and the corresponding atmosphere light will be automatically turned on ten seconds after sitting on the sofa. Or, if the user needs to wash at 9 pm, the bathroom light will be turned on and the water heater will be turned on after the user approaches the bathroom door and pushes the bathroom door open or stays there for 3 seconds.

[0043] By comparing the duration with the first preset duration, the false activation of the home scene mode can be avoided. That is, in the present application, to activate the corresponding home scene mode, it is necessary to meet the time requirement and monitor the user's status. Only when both are met can the corresponding home scene mode be activated. Based on this, the method of determining whether to activate the home scene mode corresponding to the current time according to the comparison result of the duration with the preset duration involved in the above step 13 can further include:

[0044] Step 21, when the duration exceeds the first preset duration, starting the home scene mode corresponding to the current time;

[0045] Step 22: If the duration does not exceed the first preset duration, it is prohibited to start the home scene mode corresponding to the current time.

[0046] It can be seen that by comparing the length of time the user is at the current location with the first preset length of time, it is possible to further determine whether the user needs to activate the corresponding home scene mode, and it can also avoid mistaken activation of the corresponding home scene mode, because the user does not need to activate the corresponding home scene mode every time at the corresponding time.

[0047] In addition, it should be noted that the home scene mode in the embodiment of the present application is preset with a corresponding time period, for example, 9 o'clock to 10 o'clock corresponds to a home scene mode. In order to adapt to the user's variable living habits, for example, sometimes the user wants to start the home scene mode from 9 o'clock to 10 o'clock at 8:30, or the user starts the home scene mode from 9 o'clock to 10 o'clock at 9:30, then the current time does not necessarily need to be completely corresponding to the home scene mode, that is, it only needs to be within the third preset time before the start time of the home scene mode. For example, the above-mentioned 8:30 to 9 o'clock can start the home scene mode corresponding to 9 o'clock to 10 o'clock, or the current time is between 8:30 and 9 o'clock, such as 9:30, the corresponding home scene mode can also be started. That is, the current time of the present application is not completely consistent with the start or end time of the home scene mode. Between the start and end time of the home scene mode, or within a period of time before the start time, the corresponding home scene can be started according to the user's state.

[0048] In the embodiment of the present application, after the corresponding home scene mode is turned on, the current lighting intensity may not necessarily be suitable for the needs of the current environment. For example, the lighting of the current home scene mode is set based on the previous situation where the lighting intensity is consistent and good (clear weather). At that time, the outdoor environment at the current time is cloudy, that is, the lighting intensity is poor. Therefore, after starting the corresponding home scene mode, the current indoor lighting intensity needs to be appropriately increased to adapt to the current environment. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, the current lighting intensity can be adjusted in real time. Based on this, the method involved in the above step 103 of determining whether to adjust the lighting intensity of the currently activated lamp after starting the home scene mode according to the current light intensity can further include:

[0049] Step 31, determining the light intensity of the environment in which the activated lamp is located and the light intensity of the activated lamp;

[0050] Step 32, determining a target light intensity corresponding to the light intensity according to a preset mapping relationship;

[0051] Step 33, when the lighting intensity of the lamp is greater than or less than the target lighting intensity, adjust the lighting intensity of the lamp to be consistent with the target lighting intensity.

[0052] In a specific example, the lighting intensity in the home scene mode can automatically adjust the lighting settings to suit the user's habits by analyzing the user's activity time and preferred brightness in different rooms based on the application of a clustering algorithm. However, the set lighting intensity may not necessarily be able to adapt to all situations, and in some cases the lighting intensity needs to be further adjusted. Specifically, the light intensity of the current environment can be obtained through the corresponding light sensor. In addition to weather factors, the influence of light intensity also includes other factors. For example, the control of the curtains in the current home scene mode is turned on, but after the user draws the curtains through voice control, the indoor light intensity is reduced. At this time, it is necessary to adjust the light intensity in real time, that is, to increase the light intensity appropriately. In an embodiment of the present application, different light intensities correspond to different target light intensities. At this time, if the light intensity of the lamp in the home scene mode does not match the target light intensity, the light intensity needs to be adjusted to adapt to the current environmental requirements.

[0053] In the embodiment of the present application, communication between various home devices can be achieved through the SigMesh network, especially curtains, lamps and other indoor lighting-related devices. The collaborative work between devices can be achieved based on the SigMesh network, such as adjusting the indoor lighting intensity according to the light intensity as mentioned above. In addition, when communicating between devices, TLS1.3 or quantum encryption can be used to ensure the security of data transmission of the lighting control system to prevent other users outside the home environment from illegally controlling home devices.

[0054] In the embodiment of the present application, in order to prevent danger in the home environment and further save electricity, some or all of the activated home appliances can be turned off when the user does not need them. For example, if the user has returned to the room to sleep but forgot to turn off the air conditioner in the study, the air conditioner can be automatically turned off based on the current user status. Based on this, the method of the embodiment of the present application is also as follows: Figure 2 As shown, it may also include:

[0055] Step 201, based on the user's status, detecting the usage of home appliances in an area where the user is not monitored;

[0056] Step 202: Control to partially or completely shut down the home appliances activated in the area where the user is not detected.

[0057] It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present application, in addition to being able to start the corresponding home scene mode, other home appliances can also be controlled to be turned off when they do not need to be started, which can not only provide users with better intelligent control, but also further save electricity.

[0058] In the embodiment of the present application, after starting the corresponding home scene mode, the user can still continue to control the home appliances by voice. For example, the audio is started in the current home scene mode, but the user feels that the audio is a bit noisy at this time and can turn off the audio by voice control. Or, in the current home scene mode, the user needs to turn on the currently turned off atmosphere light, and can turn it on by voice control. If there is corresponding control after the home scene mode is started in the current and next period of time, the control of the home appliances in the current home scene mode can be adjusted. Based on this, after starting the home scene mode corresponding to the current time, such as Figure 3 As shown, the method of the embodiment of the present application may also include:

[0059] 301, obtaining a user's voice command, and controlling a home appliance according to the voice command, wherein controlling a home appliance refers to turning on a home appliance, turning off a home appliance, and / or adjusting parameters of the home appliance.

[0060] It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present application, in addition to turning on and off, the parameters of the home appliances can also be adjusted by voice control, such as the intensity of the light, the degree of opening and closing of the curtains, the volume of the sound system, etc. This is to meet the real-time needs of the user for the activated home appliances in the current environment. If the user's living habits or work and rest schedule change during this time period, the control of the device in the home scene mode can be directly adjusted, including the opening of the newly added device, the closing of the turned-on device, and the adjustment of the device parameters.

[0061] In addition, in the embodiments of the present application, in addition to being able to turn off devices that the user forgets to turn off, such as air conditioners, televisions, etc., it is also possible to further turn off devices that are powered on but not used for a long time, such as a charger on the socket but not charging the device, and a rechargeable kettle that is not unplugged after boiling water. These devices are powered on but not actually used, and they are also consuming electricity. Therefore, turning off the power of these devices can not only save energy, but also avoid potential dangers. Therefore, after starting the home scene mode corresponding to the current time, such as Figure 4 As shown, the method of the embodiment of the present application may also include:

[0062] Step 401, detecting the home appliances that are currently powered on but not started;

[0063] Step 402: When the duration of the powered-on but not started period exceeds a second preset period, the powered-on but not started household appliances are controlled to be powered-off.

[0064] It can be seen that in the embodiments of the present application, for household appliances that are powered on but not used, it can be judged whether they will continue to be used by the length of time they have not been started, because there may be users who continue to use them after a short period of non-use. For example, a mobile phone charger, when the user receives a call during the charging process, the charger is not charged during the call, and the charger continues to charge after the call is answered. In this case, there is no need to turn off the power supply of the charger socket. Therefore, the second preset time length can be set to a corresponding time length according to different settings of the device. For example, for a socket that often charges mobile phones, it can be set to half an hour, and a socket that often boils kettles can be set to twenty minutes. However, for more commonly used devices such as air conditioners and refrigerators, the socket can be kept powered on. That is, the corresponding time length is set according to the specific device, and the above time length is only an example.

[0065] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the power consumption of each device in the current environment can be displayed through other terminals with display screens, so that users can appropriately shut down or adjust the parameters of some devices according to actual needs to save energy. That is, users can monitor the power consumption displayed on the display screen in real time and then make real-time adjustments.

[0066] Corresponding to the above Figure 1 , the embodiment of the present application also provides a control device for household appliances, such as Figure 5 As shown, the device comprises:

[0067] The acquisition module 502 is used to acquire the current time and the user's state; wherein the user's state represents the user's position in the current environment and the length of time at the position;

[0068] The determination module 504 is used to determine whether to start the home scene mode corresponding to the current time according to the user's state, wherein different home scene modes correspond to different locations in the same time period;

[0069] The first control module 506 is used to determine whether to adjust the lighting intensity of the currently activated lamp after the home scene mode corresponding to the current time is activated according to the current light intensity, wherein the activation of the home scene mode indicates that one or more corresponding home appliances in the home scene mode are activated.

[0070] Through the device of the embodiment of the present application, it is possible to determine whether to start the home scene mode corresponding to the current time according to the user's state, and in the case of starting the home scene mode corresponding to the current time, it is possible to determine whether to adjust the light intensity of the currently started lamp after starting the home scene mode according to the current light intensity. It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present application, the corresponding home appliance can be started according to the current user's state, and the control of the home appliance is set according to the user's previous living habits and rules. Therefore, the corresponding home scene mode is started in the corresponding time period according to the user's state, without the need for manual control by the user, which further improves the user's control experience of the home appliance. In addition, after starting the corresponding home scene mode, the current light intensity can be further adjusted to further adapt to the user's current needs, which may further save electricity while improving the user experience.
