[0028] The smart wearable device 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application is specifically a smart glove that can automatically adjust the tightness of wearing.

[0029] In the embodiment of the present application, the telescopic wire group 12 is arranged along the wearable body 11 and is relatively bound to the wearable body 11, that is, the telescopic movement of the telescopic wire group 12 can drive the wearable body 11 to expand and contract, thereby adjusting the tightness of the wearable body 11; specifically, the above-mentioned wearable body 11 includes an outer layer, an interlayer and an inner layer, and the above-mentioned telescopic wire group 12 can be arranged in the interlayer of the wearable body 11, or on the outer surface of the above-mentioned wearable body 11, thereby realizing the binding of the telescopic wire group 12 to the wearable body 11.

[0030] In the embodiment of the present application, the driving device 13 is fixed on the wearable body 11, and one end of the telescopic wire group 12 is fixedly connected to the wearable body 11, and the driving end of the driving device 13 is connected to the other end of the telescopic wire group 12, so that the driving device 13 can drive the telescopic wire group 12 to adjust the telescopic movement relative to the glove body 11, thereby driving the wearable body 11 to adjust the tightness.

[0031] Optionally, in one embodiment, the wearable body 11 includes a finger sleeve 111, and the telescopic line group 12 includes a plurality of telescopic lines 121, each telescopic line 121 is retractable, and each telescopic line 121 is arranged along the length direction of the finger sleeve 111, so that when the driving device 13 drives the telescopic line group 12, the telescopic line group 12 is retracted along the length direction of the finger sleeve 111, and the glove body 11 can be adjusted to a state that is compatible with the user's hand length more quickly and conveniently.

[0032] Optionally, there are multiple finger sleeves, and the wearable body 11 further includes a wristband portion 112, which is connected to the multiple finger sleeves 111. The wristband portion 112 corresponds to the position of the user's wrist, that is, when the user wears the smart wearable device, the wristband portion 112 will be placed on the user's wrist, thereby wearing the smart wearable device on the user's hand. The drive device 13 is arranged on one side of the wristband portion 112 to improve wearing comfort and avoid affecting the adaptability and comfort of the hand position due to the setting of the drive device 13; further, the drive device 13 includes multiple drive units 131, each of the drive units 131 corresponding to driving a retractable line 121 on the finger sleeve 111, which can achieve fine control of the tightness of different finger sleeves 111 parts of the wearable body 11.

[0033] Optionally, in one embodiment, at least one retractable wire 121 is correspondingly provided between two adjacent finger sleeves 111, one end of each retractable wire 121 is connected to the driving end of the corresponding driving unit 131, and the other end of the retractable wire 121 bypasses the area between the corresponding two adjacent finger sleeves 111 and is connected to the other side of the wristband part 112.

[0034] In this embodiment, the retractable wire 121 is arranged between two adjacent finger sleeves 111, and one end of the retractable wire 121 is connected to the driving end of the driving unit 131 arranged on one side of the wristband part 112, and the other end of the retractable wire 121 is fixedly connected to the other side of the wristband part 112. In this way, the retractable wire 121 is driven by the driving unit 131 to retract and adjust, which can force the part of the wearable body 11 located between the two adjacent finger sleeves 111 to fit the user's hand, thereby realizing the tightness adjustment of the wearable body 11.

[0035] Optionally, in another embodiment, each of the finger sleeves 111 is correspondingly provided with at least one retractable wire 121, one end of each retractable wire 121 is connected to the driving end of a corresponding driving unit 131, and the other end of the retractable wire 121 passes around the fingertip of the corresponding finger sleeve 111 and is connected to the other side of the wristband part 112.

[0036] In this embodiment, the retractable wire 121 is arranged along the finger sleeve 111, and one end of the retractable wire 121 is connected to the driving end of the driving unit 131 arranged on one side of the wristband part 112, and the other end of the retractable wire 121 is fixedly connected to the other side of the wristband part 112. In this way, the retractable wire 121 is driven by the driving unit 131 to retract and adjust, which can force the finger sleeve 111 of the wearable body 11 to fit the user's hand, thereby achieving the tightness adjustment of the wearable body.

[0037] Among them, one side of the above-mentioned wristband part 112 can be the side where the palm surface of the wearable body 11 is located, and the other side of the wristband part 112 can be the side where the back of the hand of the wearable body 11 is located; or one side of the above-mentioned wristband part 112 can be the side where the back of the hand of the wearable body 11 is located, and the other side of the wristband part 112 can be the side where the palm surface of the wearable body 11 is located.

[0038] Optionally, in one embodiment, the above-mentioned smart wearable device further includes a wire group pressure sensor 14, which is arranged on the above-mentioned wearable body 11, specifically on the inner layer of the wearable body 11, and the above-mentioned wire group pressure sensor 14 corresponds to the retractable wire group 12. The wire group pressure sensor 12 is used to obtain the pressure between the retractable wire group 12 and the user's hand, and then adjust the retractable wire group 12 according to the pressure to achieve tightness adjustment of the wearable body 11.

[0039] Specifically, the above-mentioned wire group pressure sensor 14 corresponds to the setting position of the above-mentioned telescopic wire 121. The above-mentioned wire group pressure sensor 14 can detect the pressure between the corresponding telescopic wire 121 and the user's hand, and judge the degree of fit between the user's hand and the wearable body 11 by the above-mentioned pressure, and then control each driving unit 131 of the driving device 13 to drive the corresponding telescopic wire 121 to perform telescopic adjustment until the pressure between the telescopic wire 121 and the user's hand is in the first preset pressure range, thereby completing the wearing tightness adjustment of the wearable body for the user.

[0040] Among them, when the pressure between the retractable line 121 and the user's hand is lower than the first preset pressure interval, it means that the fit between the user's hand and the wearable body is not enough, and the control driving unit 131 drives the corresponding retractable line 121 to contract; and when the pressure between the retractable line 121 and the user's hand is higher than the first preset pressure interval, it means that the fit between the user's hand and the wearable body is too tight, and the control driving unit 131 drives the corresponding retractable line 121 to extend.

[0041] Optionally, in a specific embodiment, the wire group pressure sensor 14 is disposed at the finger joints of the wearable body 11. Since the finger joints of the wearable body 11 fit the user's hand most directly and closely when the user wears the gloves, the pressure between the finger joints of the wearable body 11 and the user's hand, that is, the pressure between the retractable wire 121 and the user's hand, effectively reflects the degree of fit between the user's hand and the wearable body 11. Therefore, the wire group pressure sensor 14 is disposed at the finger joints on the back of the wearable body 11.

[0042] Optionally, one of the above-mentioned wire group pressure sensors 14 is provided at each of the above-mentioned finger joints of the wearable body 11. For example, the above-mentioned wearable body 11 includes 5 fingers and has a total of 14 finger joints, so a total of 14 above-mentioned wire group pressure sensors 14 are provided.

[0043] See also Figure 3 In the smart wearable device provided in the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned telescopic line 121 is connected to the driving end of the corresponding driving unit 131 through the spring 122, which can play a buffering and telescopic role, thereby improving the user's comfortable experience under different finger gestures.

[0044] Continue reading Figure 3 The drive unit 131 includes a fixed pulley 1311 and a motor 1312. One end of the telescopic cable 121 is wound along the guide groove of the fixed pulley 1311 and connected to the drive shaft of the motor 1312. After being buffered by the spring 122, the telescopic cable 121 passes around the fixed pulley 1311 and connects to the drive shaft of the motor 1312. The fixed pulley 1311 adjusts the direction of force applied to the telescopic cable 121, facilitating the placement of the motor 1312 and connecting the telescopic cable 121 to the motor 1312 of the corresponding drive unit 131.

[0045] The smart wearable device provided in the embodiment of the present application also includes a processor (not shown) arranged on the above-mentioned wearable body 11, and the above-mentioned processor is electrically connected to the above-mentioned wire group pressure sensor 14 and the above-mentioned motor 1312; the above-mentioned processor is used to control the rotation of the above-mentioned motor 1312 according to the first pressure signal sent by the wire group pressure sensor 14, so as to drive the corresponding telescopic wire 121 to retract and retract until the pressure corresponding to the above-mentioned first pressure signal is in the first preset pressure range.

[0046] Optionally, in a specific embodiment, the above-mentioned smart wearable device also includes a display device 15, and the above-mentioned display device 15 is arranged on the above-mentioned wristband part 112, and can be specifically arranged on the other side of the above-mentioned wristband part 112, which is on the same side as the palm surface of the wearable body 11; the above-mentioned processor is electrically connected to the above-mentioned display device 15, and can provide the user with simple interactive operations, such as setting the above-mentioned first preset pressure range.

[0047] See also Figure 4 , shows a schematic diagram of the process of automatically adjusting the tightness of the wearable body in an embodiment of the present application, including steps 401 to 413.

[0048] In step 401, after the user puts on the gloves, the process of automatically adjusting the tightness of the gloves is triggered;

[0049] In step 402, the user uses the touch display device on the wristband to input the pressure range [Pmin, Pmax] corresponding to the expected fit tightness of each line group pressure sensor, which is also the first preset pressure range mentioned above. Pmin and Pmax can be set or adjusted based on the user's own experience, or can be adjusted and determined based on a learning algorithm;

[0050] In step 403, the automatic adjustment function is turned on by the touch display device, and the hand is kept in an open palm posture;

[0051] In step 404, each line group pressure sensor begins to collect fitting pressure values at each point of the hand and feeds them back to the processor;

[0052] In step 405, the processor performs calculations based on the real-time pressure value fed back by the pressure sensor to determine whether it is within the corresponding set pressure range;

[0053] In step 406, when the detected pressure value is within the interval [Pmin, Pmax], the next step is directly transferred to step 413, and the motor stops rotating;

[0054] In step 407, when the detected pressure value is less than Pmin, it is determined that the current wearable body fits too loosely and needs to be adjusted to a tighter state;

[0055] In step 408, the processor controls the motor to rotate counterclockwise, controlling the corresponding expansion line to retract inward, so that the finger fits more tightly against the glove surface, and the corresponding pressure value increases;

[0056] In step 409, when the motor is rotating and adjusting, the pressure sensor monitors the pressure data in real time until it determines that the pressure value reaches the set range [Pmin, Pmax], and then enters step 413, and the motor stops rotating;

[0057] In step 410, when the detected pressure value is greater than Pmax, it is determined that the wearable body is too tight and needs to be adjusted to a looser state;

[0058] In step 411, the processor controls the motor to rotate clockwise, controlling the corresponding retractable wire to extend outward, so that the finger fits more loosely against the surface of the wearable body, and the corresponding pressure value becomes smaller;

[0059] In step 412, while the motor is rotating and adjusting, the pressure sensor monitors the pressure data in real time until it is determined that the pressure value reaches the set range [Pmin, Pmax], and then enters step 413, the motor stops rotating;

[0060] In step 413, when the values of all line group pressure sensor modules are within the set range [Pmin, Pmax], it is determined that the automatic adjustment function is completed, all motors are fixed in position, the wearer is comfortable, and the process ends.

[0061] Alternatively, as Figure 3 As shown, the smart wearable device further includes a pulley pressure sensor 16, which is disposed inside the slide groove of the fixed pulley 1311 and is used to monitor the pressure between the retractable wire 121 and the surface of the fixed pulley 1311. The processor is electrically connected to the pulley pressure sensor 16 and is further configured to perform gesture recognition based on a second pressure signal transmitted by the pulley pressure sensor 16. When the user's fingers are in different bending states, the pressure between the retractable wire 121 and the pulley surface varies. The pulley pressure sensor 16 can convert the pressure data between the retractable wire 121 and the pulley surface into a second pressure signal and transmit it to the processor for recognition. The processor can then determine the posture of the corresponding finger based on the second pressure signal corresponding to each retractable wire 121. Based on the posture of each finger, the processor can then determine the user's current gesture, complete gesture recognition, and thereby implement the corresponding shortcut function.

[0062] In actual applications, the pressure ranges generated by the retractable wire 121 on the pulley pressure sensor 16 in different finger posture states are pre-calibrated. For example, if the pressure range generated by the retractable wire 121 on the corresponding pulley pressure sensor 16 when the finger is in the first posture state is pre-calibrated as the second preset pressure range, then when the pressure generated by the retractable wire 121 on the corresponding pulley pressure sensor 16 is monitored to be within the second preset pressure range, it is determined that the finger corresponding to the retractable wire 121 is in the first posture state.

[0063] For example, according to the different bending states of the fingers, the finger postures are divided into the first posture, the second posture and the third finger posture; among them, the first posture is the finger posture when the palm is stretched out, the second posture is the finger posture when the hand is naturally stretched, and the third posture is the finger posture when the hand is in a bent fist state.

[0064] When the tightness of the wearable body is adjusted, the hand is in the open palm position, and each finger is in the first position. At this time, the pressure value generated by the retractable wire 121 corresponding to each finger on the pulley pressure sensor 16 is recorded as P A When the hand is in a normal use state, the hand is in a stretched posture, and each finger is in a second posture state. At this time, the pressure value generated by the retractable line 121 corresponding to each finger on the pulley pressure sensor 16 is recorded as P; when the hand is in a bent fist posture, each finger is in a third posture state. At this time, the pressure value generated by the retractable line 121 corresponding to each finger on the pulley pressure sensor 16 is recorded as P B Since the greater the degree of finger bending, the more the telescopic line 121 stretches outward under the drive of the internal spring 122, that is, the pressure generated by the telescopic line 121 on the corresponding fixed pulley 1311 surface is greater, so P A , P and P B Between satisfying P A <P<P B The size relationship.

[0065] Therefore, when the calibration finger is in the first posture state, the pressure interval formed by the retractable wire 121 on the corresponding pulley pressure sensor 16 is the second preset pressure interval; when the calibration finger is in the second posture state, the pressure interval formed by the retractable wire 121 on the corresponding pulley pressure sensor 16 is the third preset pressure interval; when the calibration finger is in the third posture state, the pressure interval formed by the retractable wire 121 on the corresponding pulley pressure sensor 16 is the fourth preset pressure interval;

[0066] Then, when it is monitored that the pressure generated by the telescopic line 121 on the corresponding pulley pressure sensor 16 is within the above-mentioned second preset pressure range, it is determined that the finger corresponding to the telescopic line 121 is in the first posture state; then, when it is monitored that the pressure generated by the telescopic line 121 on the corresponding pulley pressure sensor 16 is within the above-mentioned third preset pressure range, it is determined that the finger corresponding to the telescopic line 121 is in the second posture state; then, when it is monitored that the pressure generated by the telescopic line 121 on the corresponding pulley pressure sensor 16 is within the above-mentioned fourth preset pressure range, it is determined that the finger corresponding to the telescopic line 121 is in the third posture state.

[0067] Specifically, see Figure 5 , shows a schematic diagram of pressure detection corresponding to three finger postures in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 5As shown, in the first posture state, the deformation of the spring 122 is smaller, and the surface pressure of the fixed pulley 1311 is smaller; in the second posture state, the deformation of the spring 122 is larger than that in the first posture state, and the surface pressure of the fixed pulley 1311 in the second posture state is larger than that in the first posture state; in the third posture state, the deformation of the spring 122 is larger than that in the second posture state, and the surface pressure of the fixed pulley 1311 in the third posture state is larger than that in the second posture state. Therefore, the pressure generated by the telescopic line 121 on the corresponding pulley pressure sensor 16, combined with the pre-calibrated second preset pressure interval, third preset pressure interval and fourth preset pressure interval, can effectively identify the posture of each finger.

[0068] Specifically, the calibration process of the second preset pressure interval, the third preset pressure interval, and the fourth preset pressure interval corresponding to each finger is as follows:

[0069] After keeping the hand in the open palm position and completing the above automatic adjustment of the tightness of the wearable body, the pressure value P of the pulley pressure sensor 16 corresponding to the current i-th finger is recorded. Ai As the first posture determination condition, where i∈[1,5]; in order to improve the applicability of data recognition, the palm posture determination condition range is set to [P Ai ,P Ai +P0], thereby determining the above-mentioned second preset pressure range; wherein P0 is a buffer value, which can be set by the user according to actual usage, or adjusted to a suitable value through the algorithm;

[0070] Before turning on the gesture recognition function, the judgment conditions of the fist-clenching posture are recorded in advance. The specific method is as follows: the display device of the glove prompts the user to keep the hand in the fist-clenching posture, and at this time, the pressure value P of the pulley pressure sensor 16 corresponding to the i-th finger is recorded. Bi ,In order to improve the applicability of data recognition, the range of the fist posture judgment condition is set to [P Bi -P0,P Bi ], thereby determining the fourth preset pressure interval; wherein, P can be B[1:5] Correction to adjust it to the appropriate value;

[0071] Accordingly, determine [P Ai ,P Ai +P0] and [P Bi -P0,P Bi ] between the pressure range (P Ai +P0,P Bi -P0) is a condition for determining the hand stretching posture, thereby determining the third preset pressure interval corresponding to the i-th finger;

[0072] After the gesture recognition function is turned on, the pulley pressure sensor 16 corresponding to each finger begins to detect pressure data in real time. If the pressure data value of the finger is detected to reach the judgment condition of the corresponding gesture, the corresponding gesture judgment can be realized. Each finger includes the first posture, the second posture and the third posture, which correspond to the three postures of palm posture, normal posture and fist posture respectively.

[0073] For example, if the index finger is the second finger, the current pressure value of the pulley pressure sensor 16 corresponding to the index finger extension line is P2. If P A2 <P2<P A2 +P0, the index finger is judged to be in the first posture; if P B2 -P0 <P2<P B2 , then the index finger is judged to be in the third posture; if P A2 +P0 <P2<P B2 -P0, the index finger is judged to be in the second posture;

[0074] Using this method, the pulley pressure corresponding to each finger is detected and judged to determine the posture of each finger. Since each finger corresponds to three postures, 5 fingers can achieve a total of 3^5=243 gesture combinations. This allows users to define different shortcut functions and control interactions based on specific gestures.

[0075] Optionally, in a specific embodiment, the above-mentioned smart wearable device 10 also includes a wireless communication module arranged on the wearable body 11, and the above-mentioned wireless communication module is electrically connected to the above-mentioned processor. The above-mentioned wireless communication module can send the combination gesture determined by the processor to the terminal device, and the above-mentioned terminal device executes the shortcut function corresponding to the above-mentioned combination gesture.

[0076] See also Figure 6 , shows a schematic diagram of the circuit structure of the smart wearable device in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 6 As shown, the above-mentioned smart wearable device circuit 20 includes a charging module 21, a power module 22, a wire group pressure sensor module 23, a pulley pressure sensor module 24, a processor 25, a motor drive module 26, a display touch function module 27 and other function modules 28;

[0077] The wire group pressure sensor module 23, the pulley pressure sensor module 24, the motor drive module 26, the display touch function module 27 and other function modules 28 are all electrically connected to the processor 25. The charging module 21 charges the power module 22, and the power module 22 supplies power to the entire glove circuit 10.

[0078] The pulley pressure sensor module 24 can convert the pressure data between the telescopic wire and the pulley surface into an electrical signal and transmit it to the processor for identification. The processor controls the forward and reverse rotation of the motor through the motor drive module 26, thereby driving the wire group to extend and retract. The above-mentioned motor drive module 26 includes five, each motor drive module corresponds to a fingertip of the smart wearable device.

[0079] The processor is connected to the display touch module, which is located on the wristband on the palm side and can provide users with simple interactive operations.

[0080] The embodiment of the present application further provides a control method, which is applied to a smart wearable device, wherein the smart wearable device includes a wearable body, a retractable wire group, and a driving device; the wearable body is used to be worn on the hand of a user, the retractable wire group is arranged on the wearable body, and the retractable wire group extends along the extension direction of the wearable body, and the retractable wire group is retractable; the driving device is installed on the wearable body, and the driving device is connected to the retractable wire group, and the driving device drives the retractable wire group to retract; Figure 7 As shown, the above method includes steps 101 and 102.

[0081] In an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned smart wearable device may be a smart glove including a processor, and the processor may drive and control the above-mentioned driving device to drive the above-mentioned telescopic wire group to be telescopic.

[0082] Step 101: When the smart wearable device is worn, obtain first pressure information between the retractable wire assembly and the user's hand.

[0083] In the above step 101, when the smart wearable device is worn, the first pressure information between the retractable wire group and the user's hand is monitored and obtained through the pressure sensor, and the actual pressure between the retractable wire and the user's hand is determined, so as to determine the degree of fit between the wearable body and the user's hand.

[0084] Step 102: Based on the first pressure information, control the driving device to drive the telescopic wire group to extend and retract, so as to adjust the tightness of the wearable body.

[0085] In the above step 102, because the telescopic wire group is provided on the wearable body and is retractable, the driving device is installed on the wearable body, the driving device is connected to the telescopic wire group, and the driving device drives the telescopic wire group to retract. Therefore, according to the first pressure information reflecting the degree of fit between the wearable body and the user's hand, the driving device can be controlled to operate, drive the telescopic wire group to retract, and adjust the tightness between the telescopic wire group and the hand. Since the telescopic wire group extends along the extension direction of the wearable body and is arranged along the glove body, the telescopic wire group drives the adjustment of the tightness between the wearable body and the hand, thereby achieving tightness adjustment of the wearable body.

[0086] The control method provided in the embodiment of the present application is that the telescopic wire group is arranged on the wearable body, and the telescopic wire group is connected to the driving device, and the driving device is installed on the wearable body. Therefore, when the smart wearable device is worn, the first pressure information between the telescopic wire group and the user's hand is obtained, and the driving device is controlled according to the first pressure information to drive the telescopic wire group to perform telescopic adjustment, thereby automatically achieving the tightness adjustment of the wearable body, thereby improving the adaptability and wearing comfort of the smart wearable device, thereby solving the problem of poor adaptability and poor comfort of existing smart gloves.

[0087] Optionally, in one embodiment, the wearable body includes a finger sleeve, and the retractable wire group includes a plurality of retractable wires, each retractable wire is retractable, and each retractable wire is arranged along the length direction of the finger sleeve;

[0088] For each of the telescopic lines, step 102 specifically includes:

[0089] Step 1021 : Control the driving unit to drive the retractable wire to retract and retract according to first pressure information between the retractable wire and the hand and a first preset pressure range.

[0090] In this embodiment, the wearable body includes a glove, and the telescopic wire assembly includes a plurality of telescopic wires, which are arranged along the length direction of the finger cuff. When the drive device drives the telescopic wire assembly, the telescopic wires are extended and retracted along the length direction of the finger cuff, so that the wearable body can be adjusted to a state that is compatible with the length of the wearer's hand more quickly and conveniently.

[0091] Optionally, in one embodiment, the wearable body further includes a wristband portion, and the drive device is disposed on one side of the wristband portion; the drive device includes a plurality of drive units, each of which drives a corresponding retractable wire on the finger cuff; specifically, each finger cuff is correspondingly provided with at least one retractable wire, one end of each retractable wire is connected to the drive end of a corresponding drive unit, and the other end of the retractable wire passes around the fingertip of the corresponding finger cuff and is connected to the other side of the wristband portion;

[0092] At the same time, the wristband portion corresponds to the position of the user's wrist, that is, when the user wears the glove, the wristband portion will be sleeved on the user's wristband portion, thereby wearing the smart wearable device on the user's hand; the driving device is arranged on one side of the wristband portion to improve wearing comfort and avoid affecting the adaptability and comfort of the hand position due to the arrangement of the driving device; further, the driving device includes a plurality of driving units, each of which drives one of the retractable wires, so as to achieve fine control of the tightness of different parts of the glove body; the retractable wire is arranged along the finger sleeve, and one end of the retractable wire is connected to the driving end of the driving unit arranged on one side of the wristband portion, and the other end of the retractable wire is fixedly connected to the other side of the wristband portion, so that the retractable wire is driven by the drive of the driving unit to adjust the extension and contraction, which can force the finger sleeve of the wearable body to fit the user's hand, thereby achieving tightness adjustment of the wearable body;

[0093] In this embodiment, the drive unit corresponding to the retractable cable is controlled to drive the retractable cable to extend and retract based on first pressure information between the retractable cable and the user's hand and a first preset pressure range. The first pressure information reflects the actual pressure between the retractable cable and the user's hand, while the first preset pressure range defines the pressure range between the retractable cable and the user's hand for a comfortable fit. Therefore, based on the first pressure information and the first preset pressure range, the drive unit corresponding to the retractable cable is controlled to drive the retractable cable to extend and retract until the actual pressure between the retractable cable and the user's hand falls within the first preset pressure range.

[0094] Optionally, a display device is provided on the wristband portion, and the first preset pressure interval can be set or adjusted by the user as needed, specifically through the display device.

[0095] Optionally, in one embodiment, the first pressure information includes a first pressure between the expansion line and each joint of the finger of the hand corresponding to the expansion line, and the step 1021 includes step 1022.

[0096] Step 1022: According to each of the first pressures and the first preset pressure range, control the driving unit corresponding to the telescopic wire to drive the telescopic wire to extend and retract, so that each of the first pressures is within the first preset pressure range.

[0097] In the above embodiment, because the finger joints of the wearable body fit the user's hand most directly and tightly when the user wears the smart wearable device, the first pressure between the telescopic line and the corresponding joints of the user's fingers is obtained to effectively reflect the degree of fit between the user's hand and the wearable body. In combination with the above-mentioned first preset pressure range, the driving unit is controlled to drive the corresponding telescopic line to perform telescopic adjustment until the above-mentioned first pressure is within the above-mentioned first preset pressure range, and the wearable body can be adjusted to a suitable tightness.

[0098] Optionally, in one embodiment, the above method further includes steps 103 to 106.

[0099] Step 103: monitor second pressure information between each of the telescopic wires and the corresponding driving unit.

[0100] In the above step 103, since one end of each telescopic wire is connected to the driving end of a corresponding one of the above driving units, the pressure sensor can be used to monitor the pressure of the telescopic wire acting on the corresponding driving unit to obtain the above second pressure information.

[0101] In practical applications, the drive unit includes a fixed pulley and a motor. One end of the telescopic cable is wound along a slot in the fixed pulley and then connected to the drive shaft of the motor. The fixed pulley adjusts the direction of force applied to the telescopic cable, facilitating motor placement and connecting the telescopic cable to the motor of the corresponding drive unit. A pressure sensor for monitoring the pressure exerted by the telescopic cable on the corresponding drive unit is located inside the slot in the fixed pulley.

[0102] Step 104: Determine the posture of the finger corresponding to each retractable line according to the second pressure information corresponding to each retractable line.

[0103] Among them, because the other end of the above-mentioned retractable wire passes around the fingertip of the corresponding finger part and is connected to the other side of the above-mentioned wristband part, when the user's fingers are in different bending states, the tension of the retractable wire is different, resulting in different pressures between the retractable wire and the corresponding drive unit. Therefore, the posture of the corresponding finger can be analyzed and determined through the above-mentioned second pressure information.

[0104] Step 105: Determine the current combined gesture of the hand according to the posture of each finger.

[0105] The postures of the user's fingers determined in step 104 are combined to determine the current gesture of the user's hand, ie, the combined gesture.

[0106] For example, five fingers can each correspond to three different gestures, which adds up to 3^5=243 possible gesture combinations. This allows users to define different shortcut functions based on specific gestures, enabling gesture control.

[0107] Step 106: When the combined gesture matches the preset combined gesture information, execute the corresponding shortcut function.

[0108] Among them, when the combination gesture matches the preset combination posture information, it means that the combination gesture is consistent with the gesture operation corresponding to the preset combination posture information. Therefore, according to the correspondence between the pre-set preset combination posture and the shortcut function, the shortcut function corresponding to the above-mentioned combination gesture is determined, and the corresponding shortcut function is executed, thereby realizing the execution of the corresponding function through gesture operation control.

[0109] In the above embodiment, by monitoring the second pressure information between each retractable wire and the corresponding driving unit, the posture of the finger corresponding to the retractable wire is determined, and then the combined gesture currently made by the user is determined to achieve gesture operation.

[0110] Optionally, the control method provided in the embodiment of the present application further includes steps 1051 to 1052 before the above step 106 .

[0111] Step 1051: When the gesture recognition function of the smart wearable device is not enabled, if the combined gesture is the same as a preset unlocking gesture, enable the gesture recognition function of the smart wearable device.

[0112] In the above step 1051, the above gesture recognition function is a shortcut function that executes a corresponding operation based on the recognition of the hand posture of the user wearing the above smart wearable device; the above preset unlocking gesture is a specific gesture pre-set for activating the gesture recognition function of the smart wearable device; when the gesture recognition function of the smart wearable device is not turned on, if the combination gesture currently presented by the user's hand is the same as the preset unlocking gesture, it means that gesture recognition is required, and thus the gesture recognition function of the smart wearable device is turned on; and when the gesture recognition function of the smart wearable device is not turned on, if the combination gesture currently presented by the user's hand is different from the preset unlocking gesture, the gesture recognition function of the smart wearable device is not turned on, which can effectively prevent others from randomly using the smart wearable device to perform gesture operations, and is more secure.

[0113] Step 1052: When the gesture recognition function of the smart wearable device is turned on, execute the step of executing the corresponding shortcut function according to the combined gesture.

[0114] In the above step 1052, that is, when the gesture recognition function of the smart wearable device is activated, the shortcut function corresponding to the combined gesture will be executed according to the recognized combined gesture to achieve quick operation and provide convenience for the user.
