Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of equipment monitoring technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, terminal device, and storage medium for monitoring impact events. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing popularity of consumer electronic devices and the growing demand for more mainstream and intelligent products, consumers are also placing higher demands on the intelligent detection and multi-functional integration of electronic devices. Therefore, if a smart product can be designed with the automatic detection capabilities of a g-sensor (gravity sensor), it will greatly improve the user experience, increase product diversification, and enhance the product's competitiveness.

[0003] In related technologies, the device is equipped with a g-sensor, which monitors the device's three-axis data (X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis), determines the device's status based on the three-axis data, and then determines whether the device has experienced a knocking event based on the device's status.

[0004] However, existing methods for monitoring impact events require complex calculations on triaxial data to determine the equipment's status, resulting in low efficiency in determining the equipment's status and consequently, low efficiency in obtaining monitoring results for impact events. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The main objective of this invention is to provide a method, apparatus, terminal device, and storage medium for monitoring tapping events, aiming to solve the technical problem of low efficiency in obtaining monitoring results of tapping events in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes a method for monitoring tapping events, comprising:

[0007] If the first tapping event monitoring information sent by the gravity sensor is detected, the first tapping state corresponding to the first tapping event monitoring information is determined.

[0008] If the first tapping state is that the tapping object is far away from the terminal device, then the first time information of the first tapping event monitoring information is determined;

[0009] The start time information is obtained based on the second tapping event monitoring information corresponding to the most recent received tapping state where the tapping object is close to the terminal device. The second tapping event monitoring information is sent before the first tapping event monitoring information.

[0010] Based on the first-time information and the start-time information, the results of the knocking event monitoring are obtained.

[0011] Furthermore, to achieve the above objectives, the present invention also provides a device for monitoring tapping events, comprising:

[0012] The monitoring module is used to determine the first knocking state corresponding to the first knocking event monitoring information if the first knocking event monitoring information sent by the gravity sensor is detected.

[0013] The determination module is used to determine the first time information of the first tapping event monitoring information if the first tapping state is that the tapping object is far away from the terminal device;

[0014] The acquisition module is used to acquire start time information. The start time information is obtained based on the second tapping event monitoring information corresponding to the most recently received tapping state that the tapping object is close to the terminal device. The second tapping event monitoring information is sent before the first tapping event monitoring information.

[0015] The acquisition module is used to obtain the tapping event monitoring results based on the first time information and the start time information.

[0016] In addition, to achieve the above objectives, the present invention also proposes a terminal device, which includes a gravity sensor, a memory, a processor, and a tapping event monitoring program stored in the memory and running on the processor. When the processor executes the tapping event monitoring program, it implements the steps of the tapping event monitoring method described above.

[0017] Furthermore, to achieve the above objectives, the present invention also proposes a computer-readable storage medium storing a tapping event monitoring program, which, when executed by a processor, implements the steps of the tapping event monitoring method described above.

[0018] In existing technologies, complex calculations are required to process the triaxial data from gravity sensors to determine the device's state, resulting in low efficiency in determining the device's state and consequently, low efficiency in obtaining the monitoring results of impact events. In this invention, the terminal device obtains a first impact state based on the first impact event monitoring information sent by the gravity sensor. When the first impact state occurs when the impacting object moves away from the terminal device, the device determines the first time information of the first impact event monitoring information. Based on the first time information and the start time information, the device obtains the impact event monitoring result. This eliminates the need for complex calculations by the terminal device, significantly saving its processing time and thus improving the efficiency of obtaining the impact event monitoring results.

[0037] Based on the above hardware structure, an embodiment of the tapping event monitoring method of the present invention is proposed.

[0038] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating the first embodiment of the tapping event monitoring method of the present invention. The method includes the following steps:

[0039] Step S11: If the terminal device detects the first tapping event monitoring information sent by the gravity sensor, then determine the first tapping state corresponding to the first tapping event monitoring information.

[0040] It should be noted that the terminal device is equipped with a tapping event monitoring program. When the terminal device executes the tapping event monitoring program, it implements the steps of the tapping event monitoring method of the present invention. Typically, the tapping event monitoring program is always running, that is, it constantly monitors whether it receives tapping event monitoring information sent by the gravity sensor.

[0041] Typically, terminal devices need to have a gravity sensor (G-sensor, or g-sensor). These devices are primarily designed for embedded systems; therefore, the main controller (SoC) needs to run mainstream embedded operating systems such as Linux, VxWorks, and eCos. The operating system also needs to generate interrupts and transmit them to the user layer for processing in real time. Since Linux is currently the most prevalent and representative operating system in mainstream embedded devices, the following descriptions will focus on Linux as the device's operating system.

[0042] G-sensor device kernel driver implementation: Three key aspects require special attention during driver design: 1. The kernel driver code must include interrupt functionality, enabling real-time transmission of interrupts to the user layer. Different interrupt triggering methods (high-level or low-level triggering) for different gravity sensors necessitate corresponding driver trigger routines. 2. The G-sensor device must be registered as an input device during driver registration. This allows the use of the input subsystem to transmit low-level data to the user layer, reducing latency in data transmission from the lower layer to the upper layer. The input subsystem also offers more robust functionality, reducing the likelihood of program errors. 3. The underlying layer must provide reserved interfaces for user-level programs to manipulate the G-sensor device's registers. This, combined with the user-level detection algorithm implementation, enhances the accuracy of the detection algorithm.

[0043] The tapping event monitoring information sent by the gravity sensor (including first tapping event monitoring information, second tapping event monitoring information, and third tapping event monitoring information, etc.) includes an event identifier (usually an identifier code or identifier ID) and a tapping state (including first tapping state and second tapping state, etc.). Typically, the tapping state is represented by a specific identifier value: an identifier value of 1 indicates that the tapping object is close to the terminal device, and an identifier value of 0 indicates that the tapping object is far away from the terminal device. The tapping object can be any type of object (e.g., a finger, knuckle, or pen). The tapping action between the object and the terminal device necessarily involves the object either moving close to or far away from the terminal device.

[0044] In practical applications, when an object is brought close to the terminal device, the first specific parameter (specific gravitational acceleration) of the gravity sensor is counted, and when the object is moved away from the terminal device, the second specific parameter (specific gravitational acceleration) of the gravity sensor is counted. The correspondence between the first and second specific parameters and the identification value is established respectively, so as to directly obtain the identification value. Usually, this correspondence can be built into the gravity sensor, and the gravity sensor can directly determine the identification value as 0 or 1 based on its own actual parameters.

[0045] Step S12: If the first tapping state is that the tapping object is far away from the terminal device, the terminal device determines the first time information of the first tapping event monitoring information.

[0046] Based on the above description, the identification type is either the object being struck is far from the terminal device or the object being struck is close to the terminal device. The first time information of the first striking event monitoring information refers to the current time information of the execution up to step S12.

[0047] Step S13: The terminal device obtains the start time information. The start time information is obtained based on the second tapping event monitoring information corresponding to the most recently received tapping state where the tapping object is close to the terminal device. The second tapping event monitoring information is sent before the first tapping event monitoring information.

[0048] Typically, at the very beginning of the impact event monitoring information from the gravity sensor, this initial moment is set as the start time information. Then, when impact event monitoring information indicating that the impacting object is close to the terminal device is received, the start time information is updated using the determined moment of the impact state (impacting object close to the terminal device) from the impact event monitoring information.

[0049] In this invention, monitoring is performed in real time. At the start of monitoring, multiple tapping events may be detected where the tapping object is moving away from the terminal device. The tapping event monitoring information where the tapping object is closest to the terminal device is then determined as the second tapping event monitoring information. The start time information is updated using the determination time of the tapping state corresponding to the second tapping event monitoring information.

[0050] It is understandable that the knocking event monitoring information sent by the gravity sensor is based on the initial moment. Usually, the knocking object is close to the terminal device - the knocking object is far away from the terminal device, the knocking object is close to the terminal device - the knocking object is far away from the terminal device, and so on. When the knocking object is far away from the terminal device, then the knocking state of the previous knocking event monitoring information must have been that the knocking object was close to the terminal device.

[0051] Among them, the first tapping event monitoring information, where the tapping state is that the tapping object is moving away from the terminal device, could be any pair in the aforementioned multiple paired processes. In this case, the event where the tapping state is that the tapping object is moving closer to the terminal device is the second tapping event monitoring information. That is, before executing steps S11-S12, an event where the tapping state is that the tapping object is moving closer to the terminal device must have already occurred, and the start time information is determined based on this event where the tapping state is that the tapping object is moving closer to the terminal device.

[0052] Step S14: The terminal device obtains the tapping event monitoring results based on the first time information and the start time information.

[0053] Specifically, the terminal device obtains the tapping event monitoring results based on the first time information and the start time information, including:

[0054] The terminal device calculates the first time difference between the first time information and the start time information;

[0055] If the first time difference is within the first time interval, the terminal device obtains the tap event monitoring result of a single tap event occurring on the terminal device; or,

[0056] If the first time difference is within the second time interval, the terminal device obtains the tapping event monitoring result of the terminal device experiencing two tapping events.

[0057] In this embodiment of the invention, the first time interval is [0ms, 110ms] and the second time interval is [110ms, 200ms]. This is only a preferred choice of the first and second time intervals and does not constitute a limitation of the invention.

[0058] Furthermore, after the terminal device obtains the tapping event monitoring results based on the first time information and the start time information, the method also includes:

[0059] If the terminal device detects the third tapping event monitoring information sent by the gravity sensor, it determines the second tapping state corresponding to the third tapping event monitoring information.

[0060] If the second tapping state is that the tapping object is close to the terminal device, the terminal device determines the second time information of the third tapping event monitoring information;

[0061] The terminal device updates the start time information using the second time information and returns to the step of determining the first knocking state corresponding to the first knocking event monitoring information if the first knocking event monitoring information sent by the gravity sensor is detected, until the gravity sensor stops sending knocking event monitoring information, and obtains multiple knocking event monitoring results.

[0062] The terminal device obtains the final tapping event monitoring result based on the current time information, the start time information, and the monitoring results of multiple tapping events.

[0063] Based on the above description, the method of this invention performs continuous monitoring in real time. After obtaining the tapping event monitoring result, it means that the process of a pair of tapping objects approaching the terminal device and then moving away from the terminal device is completed, and the next round of monitoring is required. The third tapping event monitoring information is received, which typically indicates that the tapping object is approaching the terminal device. Then, the method of this invention is repeated to obtain multiple tapping event monitoring results corresponding to multiple cycles, and the current time information is obtained. Then, based on the current time information, the start time information, and the multiple tapping event monitoring results, the final tapping event monitoring result is obtained.

[0064] Specifically, the terminal device obtains the final tapping event monitoring results based on the current time information, the start time information, and the monitoring results of multiple tapping events, including:

[0065] The terminal device calculates the second time difference between the current time information and the start time information;

[0066] If the second time difference is within the third time interval, the terminal device will count the tapping type and the number of taps corresponding to the tapping type of multiple tapping event monitoring results.

[0067] The terminal device obtains the final tapping event monitoring results based on the tapping type and its corresponding number of taps.

[0068] The terminal device obtains the final tapping event monitoring results based on the tapping type and its corresponding number of taps, including:

[0069] If the tap type includes a double-tap event on the terminal device, and the number of taps in the double-tap event is not zero, then the terminal device obtains the final tap event monitoring result for the double-tap event; or,

[0070] If the tap type only includes a single tap event occurring on the terminal device, and the number of taps in a single tap event on the terminal device is not zero, then the terminal device obtains the final tap event monitoring result for the single tap event occurring on the terminal device.

[0071] The third time interval is [400ms, 650ms]. This third time interval is also a preferred choice and does not constitute a limitation of the present invention. If the second time difference is within the third time interval, it indicates that the multiple tapping event monitoring results are valid, that is, the user did indeed send a tapping operation to the terminal device. If the second time difference is not within the third time interval, it indicates that the multiple tapping event monitoring results are invalid, that is, the user did not send a tapping operation to the terminal device, but rather a similar tapping operation caused by accidental touch or other vibrations.

[0072] Therefore, only when the second time difference falls within the third time interval are the tapping types and the corresponding number of taps for each tapping event monitored. Tapping types include single tapping events and double tapping events, and the number of taps includes the number of taps for each single and double tapping event.

[0073] Regardless of whether the tap type includes single taps from the terminal device, as long as the tap type includes double taps from the terminal device, and the number of taps in a double tap event is not zero, the final tap event monitoring result for a double tap event is obtained. If the tap type does not include double taps from the terminal device, then only single taps from the terminal device are included. As long as the number of taps in a single tap event is not zero, the final tap event monitoring result for a single tap event is obtained.

[0074] In this embodiment, a third time interval is used to determine whether a tap is a valid tap, thereby filtering out invalid tap events and improving the accuracy of the final tap event monitoring results.

[0075] Furthermore, after the terminal device calculates the second time difference between the current time information and the start time information, the method also includes:

[0076] If the second time difference is not within the third time interval, the terminal device obtains the new current time information;

[0077] The terminal device obtains the third time difference based on the new current time information and the start time information;

[0078] If the third time difference is within the fourth time interval, the terminal device will clear the tap type and its corresponding number of taps, and return to the step of determining the first tap state corresponding to the first tap event monitoring information if the first tap event monitoring information sent by the gravity sensor is detected; or, if the third time difference is not within the fourth time interval and the third time difference is greater than the preset time threshold, the terminal device will update the start time information using the new current time information, and return to the step of determining the first tap state corresponding to the first tap event monitoring information if the first tap event monitoring information sent by the gravity sensor is detected.

[0079] The preset time threshold is usually the maximum value of the fourth time interval. In this invention, the fourth time interval is [1s, 5s], so the preset time threshold is 5s. When the third time is within the fourth time interval, the single-shot and double-shot counts need to be reset to 0. When the third time is greater than 5s (the maximum value of the group in the fourth time interval), in order to prevent the method of this invention from entering an unknown error, the start time information needs to be re-acquired: the current time (i.e., the new current event described above) value is used as the start time information.

[0080] In this embodiment, regardless of the third time difference, the corresponding operation must be performed before returning to step S11 to continue monitoring the impact event information of the gravity sensor in the terminal device.

[0081] When designing the kernel of a terminal device, when the kernel detects a g-sensor interrupt, it needs to promptly notify the input subsystem, which then uploads the event message to the user layer. To ensure real-time performance, efficient and accurate communication is required. In this low-level driver development, it is recommended to use a work queue to handle interrupt responses, although other efficient kernel message transmission methods can also be selected.

[0082] In existing technologies, complex calculations are required to process the triaxial data from gravity sensors to determine the device's state, resulting in low efficiency in determining the device's state and consequently, low efficiency in obtaining the monitoring results of impact events. In this invention, the terminal device obtains a first impact state based on the first impact event monitoring information sent by the gravity sensor. When the first impact state occurs when the impacting object moves away from the terminal device, the device determines the first time information of the first impact event monitoring information. Based on the first time information and the start time information, the device obtains the impact event monitoring result. This eliminates the need for complex calculations by the terminal device, significantly saving its processing time and thus improving the efficiency of obtaining the impact event monitoring results.

[0083] The method of this invention has lower resource consumption, faster timeliness, higher accuracy, and lower false detection rate. Therefore, when used in embedded intelligent devices with high system resource requirements and strong customer experience, it can greatly reduce the overall power consumption and heat of the system, and enhance product competitiveness and diversification.

The second tapping event monitoring information is sent before the first tapping event monitoring information.

[0088] The acquisition module 40 is used to obtain the tapping event monitoring results based on the first time information and the start time information.

[0089] Furthermore, module 40 is specifically used to calculate the first time difference between the first time information and the start time information; if the first time difference is within the first time interval, then the tapping event monitoring result of a single tapping event occurring on the terminal device is obtained; or, if the first time difference is within the second time interval, then the tapping event monitoring result of a double tapping event occurring on the terminal device is obtained.

[0092] Furthermore, the loop module is also used to calculate the second time difference between the current time information and the start time information; if the second time difference is within the third time interval, the knocking type and the number of knocks corresponding to the multiple knocking event monitoring results are counted; based on the knocking type and its corresponding number of knocks, the final knocking event monitoring result is obtained.

[0093] Furthermore, the loop module is also used to obtain the final tap event monitoring result of the terminal device experiencing a double tap event if the tap type includes a double tap event of the terminal device and the number of taps in the double tap event of the terminal device is not zero; or, if the tap type only includes a single tap event of the terminal device and the number of taps in the single tap event of the terminal device is not zero, then obtain the final tap event monitoring result of the terminal device experiencing a single tap event.
