[0025] In order to improve the working efficiency of a scanning device, the present invention provides a control method, device, equipment and medium for a scanning device.

[0026] The present application embodiment provides a control method for a scanning device, wherein the scanning device includes a camera, and the scanning device may be a scanning pen. The control method flow is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the specific steps include:

[0027] S101, when the first receiving unit receives the first trigger signal, the starting acquisition unit sends a starting signal to the camera to control the camera to start collecting information.

[0028] S102, when the second receiving unit receives the second trigger signal, the pause collection unit sends a pause signal to the camera to control the camera to pause collecting information.

[0029] S103, when the third receiving unit receives the third trigger signal, the recovery collection unit sends a recovery signal to the camera to control the camera to continue collecting information.

[0030] In this embodiment, the first receiving unit, the second receiving unit and the third receiving unit can respectively obtain the first trigger signal, the second trigger signal and the third trigger signal through the terminal device, and the terminal device can be one or more of a smart phone, a tablet computer and a portable computer, and of course it can also be a desktop computer, etc. The source of the first trigger signal, the second trigger signal and the third trigger signal can be a server. The terminal device obtains the first trigger signal, the second trigger signal and the third trigger signal in the server through the network, and the network can include various connection types, such as wired communication links, wireless communication links, etc. The number of the terminal device, the network and the server can be set according to actual needs. For example, the terminal device can also obtain the first trigger signal, the second trigger signal and the third trigger signal in a server cluster composed of multiple servers through the network. The user can use the terminal device to interact with the server through the network to receive or send messages, etc. The server can be a server that provides various services.

[0031] Exemplarily, the present invention is particularly suitable for application scenarios where a scanning device is required to perform multiple scans continuously. When the second receiving unit receives the second trigger signal, the pausing acquisition unit sends a pausing signal to the camera to control the camera to suspend collecting information, so that the camera suspends scanning, but does not turn off the camera; and when the third receiving unit receives the third trigger signal, the resuming acquisition unit sends a resuming signal to the camera to control the camera to continue collecting information, so that when the user needs to use the scanning device to scan again, there is no need to perform initialization operations such as turning on the camera, thereby improving the working efficiency of the scanning device and thus improving the user's experience of using the scanning device.

[0032] In a possible embodiment, the control method further includes step S104, when the fourth receiving unit receives the fourth trigger signal, the termination acquisition unit sends a termination signal to the camera to control the camera to terminate the acquisition of information. In this embodiment, when the scanning device does not need to perform the scanning, the termination acquisition unit sends a termination signal to the camera to control the camera to terminate the acquisition of information, so as to prevent the scanning device from being erroneously scanned due to the failure to close the scanning device in time.

[0033] For example, when the scanning device is required to continuously scan a total of 20 pages of documents on both sides, when one document is scanned, before scanning other documents, it is not necessary to turn off the camera. The second receiving unit only needs to receive the second trigger signal, and the pause acquisition unit sends a pause signal to the camera to control the camera to pause collecting information, so that the scanning work of the camera can be temporarily stopped without turning off the camera, and there is no need to restart the camera, which saves operation time. After the scanning of 20 pages of documents is completed, the fourth receiving unit receives the fourth trigger signal, and the termination acquisition unit sends a termination signal to the camera to control the camera to stop collecting information, so as to realize the closing of the camera, which is convenient, fast and easy to operate.

[0034] In another possible embodiment, the control method further includes step S105, wherein the termination acquisition unit sends a shutdown signal to the scanning device to control the scanning device to shut down. In this embodiment, when the scanning device is not needed to scan, the termination acquisition unit can send a shutdown signal to the scanning device to control the scanning device to shut down, thereby cutting off current transmission to save energy.

[0035] Optionally, before the first receiving unit receives the first trigger signal, the scanning device completes initialization. In this embodiment, the scanning device completes initialization before the first receiving unit receives the first trigger signal, so that the subsequent scanning device does not need to be initialized again when receiving the recovery signal, thereby improving the working efficiency of the scanning device and ensuring the accuracy of subsequent operations.

[0036] Further optionally, the transmission unit controls the camera to transmit the information collected by the camera to the processing module in the scanning device, and the processing module includes a recognition unit and a translation unit, the recognition unit is used to perform recognition processing on the information collected by the camera, and the translation unit is used to perform translation processing on the information collected by the camera. In this embodiment, the transmission unit controls the camera to transmit the information collected by the camera to the processing module in the scanning device, so that the processing module can perform recognition processing or translation processing on the information collected by the camera, the recognition processing can identify the collected text or image information, and the translation processing can translate the recognized text information.

[0037] Further optionally, the control method also includes that the processing module is also connected to a display module, and a display control unit controls the display module to obtain the processing results of the processing module on the information collected by the camera, and the display module is used to display the results.

[0039] When the first receiving unit 201 receives the first trigger signal, the start acquisition unit 202 sends a start signal to the camera to control the camera to start acquiring information. When the second receiving unit 203 receives the second trigger signal, the pause acquisition unit 204 sends a pause signal to the camera to control the camera to pause acquiring information.
