[0033] Hereinafter, aspects of a movable operating device according to exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0034] Figure 1 FIG. 1 shows a schematic structural diagram of a mobile operating device 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1As shown, the mobile operating device 1000 includes an automatic guiding device 110, an extendable arm 120, and a control device 130. The automatic guiding device 110 is used to detect obstacles around the mobile operating device 1000 and generate corresponding guidance signals; the extendable arm 120 includes a wireless energy transmitter ( Figure 1 (not shown) the wireless energy transmitter is capable of releasing energy to one or more networked devices; the control device 130 is used to control the travel route of the movable operating device 1000 based on the guidance signal, and control the extendable arm 120 to charge the device to be charged in the one or more networked devices.
[0035] The term "mobile operating device" in the context of this application is intended to mean a device that has certain operating functions and can be moved along a certain route. For example, the mobile operating device can be a mobile manipulator system.
[0036] The automatic guidance device 110 can detect obstacles within a certain range of the mobile operating device 1000. For example, when the mobile operating device 1000 is used in a room, the automatic guidance device 110 can automatically detect obstacles in the room and generate guidance signals accordingly to enable the mobile operating device 1000 to successfully avoid the obstacles. In one or more embodiments, the automatic guidance device 110 can include one or more of a laser, a radar, an inertial measurement unit, and a visual sensor.
[0037] As the name suggests, the extendable arm 120 is an extendable arm. This extendable arm 120 may include a multi-degree-of-freedom robotic arm (swing arm, height-extending arm, etc.). In one embodiment, the extendable arm 120 also includes a wireless energy transmitter, which, under the control of the control device 130, can release energy to one or more networked devices. Here, "networked devices" refer to devices on the same network (local area network, wide area network). For example, in the IoT scenario, a networked device may refer to one or more IoT devices / modules within that scenario.
[0038] The control device 130 is configured to receive the guidance signal generated by the automatic guidance device 110 and control the travel route of the movable operating device 1000 based on the guidance signal. The control device 130 is also configured to control the wireless energy transmitter in the extendable arm 120 to charge the device to be charged.
[0039] Because the mobile operating device 1000 can be moved within a certain spatial range (e.g., within a room), it overcomes the distance limitations of existing wireless charging. Specifically, the mobile operating device 1000 can automatically approach the device to be charged for wireless charging without human intervention. Furthermore, the mobile operating device 1000 can promptly and accurately locate and charge the connected device in need of charging, thus avoiding issues such as smart device / system malfunctions or data loss caused by untimely battery charging.
[0040] In one embodiment, the control device 130 is further configured to broadcast a handshake signal and receive signals related to the power level or charging demand from the one or more networked devices. That is, the control device 130 may send a broadcast signal to the surrounding networked devices. For example, after the first networked device receives the broadcast signal, the first networked device may feedback its own power level to the mobile operating device 1000. In another example, after receiving the broadcast signal, the first networked device may send a signal related to the charging demand to the mobile operating device 1000 as needed, such as requesting the mobile operating device 1000 to charge it. Of course, those skilled in the art will understand that in addition to broadcasting a handshake signal to unspecified networked devices, the control device 130 may be configured to send a request signal to one or more networked devices for querying their power level. After receiving the request signal, the second networked device may be configured to return its power level to the control device 130 as a response.
[0041] Upon receiving a signal related to a power level or charging requirement, the control device 130 may be configured to analyze the power level or charging requirement signal to identify a device to be charged. In one embodiment, the control device 130 may determine that a networked device is a device to be charged when the power level of the networked device is below a preset threshold. In another embodiment, the control device 130 may determine that a networked device is a device to be charged when the control device 130 receives a request signal from the networked device indicating that charging is required.
[0042] In one embodiment, after determining the device to be charged, the control device 130 is further configured to: obtain the location of the device to be charged, and control the movable operating device 1000 to move toward the location of the device to be charged.
[0043] The control device 130 can obtain the location of the device to be charged in various ways. In one embodiment, the control device 130 obtains the location of the device to be charged by communicating with the device to be charged. In another embodiment, the locations of the various networked devices are pre-stored in the mobile operating device 1000 (or the control device 130) and / or a third-party device. The control device 130 obtains the location of the device to be charged from the mobile operating device 1000 or the third-party device using the device's unique identifier.
[0044] After obtaining the location of the device to be charged, in one embodiment, the control device 130 may also be configured to provide this location information to the automatic guidance device 110 so that the automatic guidance device 110 can better plan the route of the mobile operating device 1000. In another embodiment, after obtaining the location of the device to be charged, the control device 130 may automatically plan the route of the mobile operating device 1000 in conjunction with the guidance signal received from the automatic guidance device 110 so as to move toward the location of the device to be charged.
[0045] In one embodiment, the control device 130 is configured to adjust the extendable arm 120 based on a noise level between the wireless energy transmitter and one or more networked devices. The noise level can be, for example, a signal-to-noise ratio of transmitted and received signals between the wireless energy transmitter and the one or more networked devices. For another example, the noise level indicates the amount of background noise in the current environment.
[0046] Excessive noise levels can reduce wireless signal strength and performance. In one embodiment, when the noise level exceeds a preset threshold (e.g., a first threshold), the control device 130 is configured to adjust one or more degrees of freedom of the extendable arm 120 to bring the wireless energy transmitter in the extendable arm 120 closer to the device to be charged. When the noise level is within an acceptable range, the control device 130 can be configured to allow the wireless energy transmitter to begin charging the device to be charged. In one embodiment, the extendable arm 120 is extended to reduce the noise level, and once the noise level falls below the acceptable limit, the extendable arm 120 stops extending. In one example, the noise level is measured in -dBm format (0 to -100). This is a power ratio in decibels (dB) relative to one milliwatt of measured power. The closer the value is to 0, the higher the noise level. Negative values indicate less background noise. For example, a noise level of -96dBm is lower than -20dBm.
[0047] In mobile operating device 1000, extendable arm 120 may have multiple degrees of freedom. In one embodiment, extendable arm 120 is height-adjustable, and control device 130 adjusts the height of extendable arm 120 based on noise levels. This allows mobile operating device 1000 to provide charging services for various networked devices of varying heights in complex environments.
[0048] Furthermore, the charging power for various networked devices can be determined as needed. For example, the charging power for a first networked device can be preset to 5W, and the charging power for a second networked device can be preset to 15W. Then, if the control device 130 determines that the device to be charged is the first networked device, the control device 130 is configured to control the wireless energy transmitter to charge the device to be charged at 5W. Similarly, in this example, if the control device 130 determines that the device to be charged is the second networked device, the control device 130 is configured to control the wireless energy transmitter to charge the device to be charged at 15W.
[0049] In one or more embodiments, although Figure 1 Not shown, the mobile operating device 1000 may also include a floor cleaning device configured to clean the floor while traveling along a designated route according to instructions from the control device 130, with the extendable arm 120 mounted on the floor cleaning device. Unlike existing mobile operating devices, the mobile operating device 1000 of the present embodiment can simultaneously handle multiple functions, i.e., cleaning the floor while preparing to charge or charging a device to be charged. In one embodiment, the floor cleaning device is an intelligent vacuum cleaner.
[0050] In one embodiment, the mobile operating device 1000 may further include: a detection device for detecting whether there are people and / or pets in the current environment, and the control device 130 is configured to allow the charging device to be charged only when the detection device does not detect people and / or pets in the current environment. In a home scenario, some users may be concerned about radiation issues during wireless charging, so charging in an environment where there are no people / pets can meet the needs of these users. Of course, in another embodiment, the control device 130 may be configured to allow the charging device to be charged only when the detection device detects a person in the current environment, which can further ensure that there are people present during wireless charging and improve safety.
[0051] The operating frequency or cycle of the floor cleaning device and / or wireless energy transmitter can be determined as needed, for example, every two hours, daily, or weekly, without limitation. Furthermore, the operating (charging) frequency or cycle of the wireless energy transmitter can vary for different networked devices. For example, a first networked device may be charged once a week, while a second networked device may be charged once a day.
[0052] In one embodiment, when the control device 130 receives a battery full or disconnect response signal from the device to be charged, the control device 130 controls the mobile operating device 1000 to search for other devices to be charged or return to the docking station for charging.
[0053] Figure 2 FIG. 2 shows a schematic structural diagram of a movable operating device 2000 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, the mobile operating device 2000 includes an extendable arm 210, an automatic guiding device 220, a floor cleaning device 230, and a control device 240. The extendable arm 210 includes a wireless energy transmitter 211, a height extension arm 212, and a swing arm 213. The wireless energy transmitter 211 is located at one end of the extendable arm 210. Because the extendable arm 210 has multiple degrees of freedom and includes the height extension arm 212 and the swing arm 213, the height of the wireless energy transmitter 211 or the extendable arm 210 is adjustable, allowing it to be moved closer to or further away from the device to be charged as needed.
[0054] Figure 3 FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing a control method 3000 for a mobile operating device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 As shown, the control method 3000 includes the following steps:
[0055] In step S310, a guidance signal is received from an automatic guidance device in the movable operating device;
[0056] In step S320, a travel route of the movable operating device is controlled based on the guidance signal; and
[0057] In step S330, the extendable arm of the movable operating device is controlled to charge one or more networked devices to be charged.
[0058] The term "mobile operating device" in the context of this application is intended to mean a device that has certain operating functions and can be moved along a certain route. For example, the mobile operating device can be a mobile manipulator system.
[0059] The automatic guidance device can detect obstacles within a certain range of the mobile operating device. For example, when the mobile operating device is used or moved within a room, the automatic guidance device can automatically detect obstacles within the room and generate guidance signals accordingly to enable the mobile operating device to successfully avoid the obstacles. In one or more embodiments, the automatic guidance device may include one or more of a laser, a radar, an inertial measurement unit, or a visual sensor.
[0060] As the name suggests, an extendable arm is an arm with extensibility. This extendable arm may include a robotic arm with multiple degrees of freedom (swing arm, height extension arm, etc.). In one embodiment, the extendable arm also includes a wireless energy transmitter that can release energy to one or more networked devices. Here, "networked device" refers to devices on the same network (local area network, wide area network). For example, in the Internet of Things (IoT) scenario, a networked device may refer to one or more IoT devices / modules in that scenario.
[0061] Since the mobile operating device can be moved within a certain spatial range (such as within a room), charging one or more devices to be charged through the extendable arm of the mobile operating device can overcome the distance limitation problem in existing wireless charging.
[0062] although Figure 3 Not shown, in one embodiment, the above-mentioned control method 3000 may further include: broadcasting a handshake signal, and receiving a signal related to the power level or charging demand from the one or more networked devices. For example, after the first networked device receives the broadcast signal, the first networked device may feedback its own power level to the mobile operating device. In another example, after receiving the broadcast signal, the first networked device may send a signal related to the charging demand to the mobile operating device as needed, such as requesting the mobile operating device to charge it. Of course, those skilled in the art will understand that the control method 3000 may not broadcast a handshake signal but only send a request signal for querying the power level of one or more networked devices, and the networked device returns its power level as a response after receiving the request signal.
[0063] After receiving a signal related to a power level or charging requirement, control method 3000 may further include analyzing the power level or charging requirement signal to determine a device to be charged. In one embodiment, when the power level of a networked device is below a preset threshold, the networked device may be determined to be a device to be charged. In another embodiment, when a request signal indicating that charging is required is received from a networked device, the networked device may be determined to be a device to be charged.
[0064] In one embodiment, after determining the device to be charged, the control method 3000 may further include: acquiring a location of the device to be charged, and controlling the movable operating device 1000 to move toward the location of the device to be charged.
[0065] The location of the device to be charged can be obtained in a variety of ways. In one embodiment, the location of the device to be charged is obtained by communicating with the device to be charged. In another embodiment, the locations of the various networked devices are pre-stored in the mobile operating device and / or a third-party device. Therefore, the location of the device to be charged can be obtained from the mobile operating device or the third-party device using the unique identifier of the device to be charged.
[0066] After obtaining the location of the device to be charged, in one embodiment, the control method 3000 may further include providing the location information to the automatic guidance device so that the automatic guidance device can better plan the route of the mobile operating device. In another embodiment, the control method 3000 may include, after obtaining the location of the device to be charged, automatically planning the route of the mobile operating device based on the guidance signal received from the automatic guidance device so as to move toward the location of the device to be charged.
[0067] In one embodiment, control method 3000 includes adjusting the extendable arm based on a noise level between the wireless energy transmitter and one or more networked devices. For example, the noise level may be the signal-to-noise ratio of transmitted and received signals between the wireless energy transmitter and the one or more networked devices. In another embodiment, the noise level indicates the amount of background noise in the current environment. If the noise level is too high, wireless signal strength may be reduced, potentially degrading performance.
[0068] In one embodiment, when the noise level exceeds a preset threshold (e.g., a first threshold), the wireless energy transmitter in the extendable arm is brought closer to the device to be charged by adjusting one or more degrees of freedom of the extendable arm. When the noise level falls within an acceptable range, the wireless energy transmitter is allowed to begin charging the device. In one embodiment, the extendable arm is extended to reduce the noise level, and once the noise level falls below the acceptable limit, the extendable arm stops extending. In one example, the noise level is measured in -dBm format (0 to -100). This is a power ratio in decibels (dB) relative to one milliwatt of measured power. The closer the value is to 0, the higher the noise level. Negative values indicate less background noise. For example, a noise level of -96dBm is lower than -20dBm.
[0069] In a mobile operating device, the extendable arm may have multiple degrees of freedom. In one embodiment, the control method 3000 includes adjusting the height of the extendable arm based on noise levels. This allows the mobile operating device to provide charging services for various networked devices at different heights in complex environments.
[0070] Furthermore, the charging power for various networked devices can be determined as needed. For example, the charging power for a first networked device can be preset to 5W, and the charging power for a second networked device can be preset to 15W. Then, if the control device 130 determines that the device to be charged is the first networked device, the control device 130 is configured to control the wireless energy transmitter to charge the device to be charged at 5W. Similarly, in this example, if the control device 130 determines that the device to be charged is the second networked device, the control device 130 is configured to control the wireless energy transmitter to charge the device to be charged at 15W.
[0071] Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the control methods for a mobile operating device provided in one or more embodiments of the present invention can be implemented via a computer program. For example, when a computer storage medium (e.g., a USB flash drive) storing the computer program is connected to a computer, running the computer program can execute the control methods for a mobile operating device provided in one or more embodiments of the present invention.
[0072] According to one aspect of the present invention, a smart home system is provided, comprising one or more mobile operating devices 1000 or 2000 as described above. In one embodiment, the smart home system comprises a first mobile operating device and a second mobile operating device, wherein the first mobile operating device is configured to communicate with the second mobile operating device to avoid interference. In another embodiment, the smart home system comprises a central control console, a first mobile operating device, and a second mobile operating device, wherein the first mobile operating device and the second mobile operating device each communicate with the central control console and move under the guidance of the central control console to avoid collision or interference.
[0073] In summary, the movable operating device of the embodiment of the present invention can move within a certain spatial range (e.g., within a room), automatically find a device to be charged (e.g., a networked device with low battery) and control the extendable arm to wirelessly charge the device to be charged, thereby solving the distance limitation problem in existing wireless charging. It can also promptly and accurately find and charge the networked device that needs to be charged, thus avoiding problems such as smart device / system malfunction or data loss due to untimely battery charging.
[0074] Although the above description only describes some embodiments of the present invention, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention may be implemented in many other forms without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, the examples and embodiments shown are to be considered illustrative rather than restrictive, and the present invention may encompass various modifications and substitutions without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims.
