Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of smart home, and particularly relates to a smart wardrobe system and a control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the improvement of people's demand for intelligent clothing storage, smart wardrobes that can coordinate clothing storage information are becoming increasingly popular. Smart wardrobes can usually record the updated information of all stored clothes, so that users can understand the specific storage status of all clothes without manually rummaging through them. Currently, smart wardrobes are usually used in combination with smart dressing mirrors. When a user wears clothes in front of a smart dressing mirror, the smart dressing mirror will identify the clothes currently worn by the user and feedback the information of the clothes worn by the user to the smart wardrobe, so that information such as the wearing frequency of the currently worn clothes can be added to the clothing storage information of the smart wardrobe, thereby facilitating the user to more intuitively understand the existing clothes in the smart wardrobe and the wearing rate of each piece of clothing.

[0003] The drawback of the above-mentioned method for obtaining clothing wearing information of smart wardrobes is that the specific clothes worn by the user each time need to be identified by the image recognition system of the smart dressing mirror. There are not only problems such as difficult recognition and hard distinction of clothes with similar styles, but also missed detections because the user does not check the worn clothes in front of the smart dressing mirror every time, resulting in easy omission or error of information when the smart wardrobe updates the clothing wearing information.

[0004] Correspondingly, there is a need in the art for a new smart wardrobe system and a control method thereof to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To solve the above problems in the prior art, that is, to solve the problem that when the existing intelligent wardrobe collects information on the clothes worn by the user through the intelligent dressing mirror, it is easy to miss or misidentify the clothes, the present invention provides an intelligent wardrobe system. The intelligent wardrobe system includes an intelligent wardrobe, a control terminal, and an RFID reading device. The intelligent wardrobe includes a communication module and a prompt module. The RFID reading device includes a first switch, a second switch, an RFID reading unit, and a main control unit connected in series with a power supply. The communication module and the main control unit are respectively communicatively connected to the control terminal. One of the first switch and the second switch is set to be opened when a user is detected outside or inside the room door, and the other of the first switch and the second switch is arranged within the rotation area of the room door and is set to be opened when the room door is opened to a set angle. The RFID reading unit can be powered on and read the RFID tag information of the clothes currently worn by the user when the first switch and the second switch are both opened. The main control unit can send the RFID tag information read by the RFID reading unit to the control terminal. The control terminal can calculate the number of times the clothes worn by the user when going out based on the received RFID tag information, and send the calculated number of times the clothes worn by the user when going out to the communication module. The communication module can transmit the received number of times the clothes worn by the user when going out to the prompt module.

The power unit is connected to the power supply in a manner parallel to the RFID reading unit, the main control unit, and one of the first switch and the second switch, and the power unit can be powered on and started when the other of the first switch and the second switch is opened alone. The main control unit also sends the total power change information when the RFID reading device reads the RFID tag information together with the read RFID tag information to the control terminal. The control terminal calculates the number of times the clothes worn by the user when going out based on the RFID tag information read when the total power of the RFID reading device remains unchanged.

[0007] In a preferred technical solution of the above intelligent wardrobe system, the power unit is connected to the power supply in a manner parallel to the RFID reading unit, the main control unit, and the first switch. The first switch is arranged within the rotation area of the room door and is set to be opened when the room door is opened to a set angle. The second switch is set to be opened when a user is detected outside or inside the room door. The power unit can be powered on and started when the second switch is opened alone.

[0008] In the preferred technical solution of the above intelligent wardrobe system, the first switch is a first pressure-sensitive switch disposed on the pivoting side of the doorframe of the room door, and the first pressure-sensitive switch is configured to be squeezed and thus turned on when the room door is opened to a set angle.

[0009] In the preferred technical solution of the above intelligent wardrobe system, the second switch includes a doormat laid outside the room door and a second pressure-sensitive switch disposed on the doormat, and the second pressure-sensitive switch can be turned on when the user moves onto the doormat.

[0010] In the preferred technical solution of the above intelligent wardrobe system, the RFID reading unit is disposed above the outside of the room door.

[0011] In addition, the present invention also provides a control method for the above intelligent wardrobe system, and the control method includes: reading RFID tag information of the clothes currently worn by the user; sending the read RFID tag information to the control terminal; the control terminal calculating the number of times of wearing the clothes worn by the user when going out according to the received RFID tag information; sending the calculated number of times of wearing the clothes worn by the user when going out to the communication module; the communication module transmitting the received number of times of wearing the clothes worn by the user when going out to the prompt module.

[0012] In the preferred technical solution of the above control method, the RFID reading device further includes a power unit, and the power unit is connected to the power supply in a manner of being connected in parallel with one of the RFID reading unit, the main control unit, the first switch, and the second switch. The power unit can be powered on and started when the other of the first switch and the second switch is independently turned on. The step of "sending the read RFID tag information to the control terminal" specifically includes: sending the total power change information when the RFID reading device reads the RFID tag information together with the read RFID tag information to the control terminal; the step of "the control terminal calculating the number of times of wearing the clothes worn by the user when going out according to the received RFID tag information" specifically includes: the control terminal screening the RFID tag information read when the total power of the RFID reading device remains unchanged from all the RFID tag information; calculating the number of times of wearing the clothes worn by the user when going out according to the screened RFID tag information.

[0013] In the preferred technical solution of the above control method, the step of "calculating the wearing times of the clothes worn by the user when going out according to the screened RFID tag information" specifically includes: determining the effective times of the received RFID tag information; retrieving the historical wearing times matching the screened RFID tag information; adding the historical wearing times and the effective times, and taking the sum of the historical wearing times and the effective times as the wearing times of the clothes worn when going out corresponding to the screened RFID tag information, wherein the effective times are the actual wearing times calculated according to the single wearing cycle after calculating the historical wearing times.

[0014] In the preferred technical solution of the above control method, the step of "calculating the wearing times of the clothes worn by the user when going out according to the screened RFID tag information" specifically includes: obtaining a query instruction for the clothes wearing times; if the query instruction is obtained, then calculating the wearing times of the clothes worn by the user when going out according to the screened RFID tag information.

[0015] Those skilled in the art can understand that the RFID reading device of the intelligent wardrobe system of the present invention can read the RFID tag information of the clothes worn on the user when the user goes out, and perform information feedback with the intelligent wardrobe through the control terminal.

[0019] Figure 3 It is a flowchart of the steps of the control method of the intelligent wardrobe system of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0020] Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make adjustments according to needs to adapt to specific application scenarios.

[0021] In addition, it should be noted that in the description of the present invention, although the steps of the control method of the present invention are described in a specific order in this application, these orders are not restrictive. Without departing from the basic principles of the present invention, those skilled in the art can execute the steps in different orders.

[0022] Based on the problem pointed out in the background technology that when the existing intelligent wardrobe collects the information of the clothes worn by the user through the intelligent dressing mirror, it is easy to miss or misidentify the clothes, the present invention provides an intelligent wardrobe system and its control method, aiming to improve the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the clothes wearing information fed back to the intelligent wardrobe, so as to facilitate the overall management of the worn clothes by the intelligent wardrobe.

[0023] First, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 which is the overall structural schematic diagram of the preferred embodiment of the intelligent wardrobe system of the present invention. As Figure 1 shown, the intelligent wardrobe system of the present invention includes an intelligent wardrobe, a control terminal, and an RFID reading device. The RFID reading device can read the information written on the RFID tag of the clothes. Both the RFID reading device and the intelligent wardrobe can communicate with the control terminal, so that the control terminal can receive the clothes RFID tag information read by the RFID reading device, and transmit the wearing times of each worn piece of clothing calculated according to the received RFID tag information to the intelligent wardrobe. Specifically, the intelligent wardrobe includes a communication module and a prompting module that can actively or passively send prompting information (at least including the prompting information of the wearing times of the clothes) to the user. The intelligent wardrobe communicates with the control terminal through the communication module. The RFID reading device includes a first switch, a second switch, an RFID reading unit, and a main control unit connected in series with a power supply. The RFID reading device communicates with the control terminal through the main control unit. The first switch is arranged in the rotation area of the room door in the user's home and is set to be opened when the room door is opened to a set angle. The second switch is set to be opened when the user is detected outside or inside the room door. The RFID reading unit can be powered on and read the RFID tag information of the clothes worn by the user when the first switch and the second switch are both opened. The main control unit can send the RFID tag information read by the RFID reading unit to the control terminal. The control terminal can calculate the wearing times of the clothes worn by the user when going out according to the received RFID tag information, and send the calculated wearing times of the clothes worn when going out to the communication module. The communication module can transmit the received wearing times of the clothes worn when going out to the prompting module.

[0024] With the above settings, in a possible scenario, after receiving the RFID tag information, the control terminal calculates in real time the number of times the clothes worn by the user when going out, and transmits the calculated number of times to the smart wardrobe for data update, so that the number of times the clothes are worn stored on the smart wardrobe side can be updated each time the RFID reading device detects that the user wears the corresponding clothes and goes out. Specifically, when the user goes out or returns home, the action of opening the room door and passing by the doorway causes the first switch and the second switch to be turned on simultaneously. At this time, the RFID reading unit is powered on and operates to read the RFID tag information of the clothes worn on the user passing by the doorway, and transmits it to the control terminal through the main control unit; after receiving the RFID tag information, the control terminal can screen the stored data that matches the currently received RFID tag information among the RFID tags of all the user's clothes, so as to retrieve the historical number of times each currently worn piece of clothing corresponds to, and then increase the number of times of wearing by one on the basis of the historical number of times of wearing corresponding to each currently worn piece of clothing, so as to update the number of times the currently worn clothes are worn. For example, when the RFID reading unit reads the RFID tag information of the white top and black pants worn by the user, the control terminal will screen the RFID tag information corresponding to the white top and black pants respectively among the RFID tag information of all the clothes, so as to retrieve the historical number of times the white top and black pants correspond to, and then increase the historical number of times of wearing of the white top and black pants by one to achieve the purpose of data update, and then transmit the updated latest number of times the white top and black pants are worn to the communication unit of the smart wardrobe; after receiving the information on the number of times the clothes worn by the user when going out sent by the control terminal, the communication unit will transmit the relevant information to the prompt unit, so that the prompt unit can prompt the user of the number of times the white top and black pants have been worn by means of active display or passive prompt (such as the user's voice query of the number of times a specific piece of clothing has been worn, selecting the function of querying the number of times the clothes are worn in the information query area of the smart wardrobe, etc.), so that the user can perform operations such as cleaning and nursing on the corresponding clothes. Among them, the RFID tag information of all the clothes in the smart wardrobe stored in the control terminal can be stored in the control terminal either by the user directly inputting it into the control terminal or by the smart wardrobe first obtaining the RFID tag information of all the clothes and then transmitting it to the control terminal.

[0025] In the above embodiments, the user can also set the single wearing cycle of the clothing so that the control terminal can calculate the number of times the clothing is worn that is more in line with the user's clothing cleaning and care habits according to the single wearing cycle input by the user. Specifically, the single wearing cycle of the clothing is set as the wearing time. When the single wearing cycle of the clothing is M days (it can also be other time units such as hours), the clothing being continuously worn for M days is counted as one wear. When the RFID reading unit reads the RFID tag information of a certain piece of clothing worn by the user multiple times within consecutive M days and sends the multiple RFID tag information to the control terminal, the control terminal, after receiving the RFID tag information for the first time within M days and increasing the original wearing times of this piece of clothing by one, will not update the wearing times of this piece of clothing when it no longer receives the RFID tag information of this piece of clothing within M days. If the RFID tag information of this piece of clothing is received again on the (M + 1)-th day, the wearing times of this piece of clothing will be incremented by one again. Or, the single wearing cycle of the clothing is set as the number of times of being recognized (i.e., the number of times the user goes out dressed). When the single wearing cycle of the clothing is N times, the clothing being continuously recognized N times by the RFID reading unit is counted as one wear. When the RFID reading unit reads the RFID tag information of a certain piece of clothing worn by the user N times and sends the read RFID tag information to the control terminal each time, the control terminal, after receiving the RFID tag information for the first time and increasing the original wearing times of this piece of clothing by one, will not update the wearing times of this piece of clothing when it no longer receives the RFID tag information of this piece of clothing from the second to the N-th time. If the RFID tag information of this piece of clothing is received for the (N + 1)-th time, the wearing times of this piece of clothing will be incremented by one again.

[0026] In a preferred scenario, the control terminal calculates the number of times the corresponding clothing worn out by the user based on the received RFID tag information only when the user has a query requirement for the number of times of clothing wear. Taking the query calculation process of the number of times of wearing a certain piece of clothing A by the user as an example, specifically, when the user sends a query instruction for the number of times of wearing clothing A to the smart wardrobe or the control terminal, the control terminal calculates the effective number of times of receiving the RFID tag information corresponding to clothing A when directly or indirectly receiving the query instruction through the smart wardrobe, retrieves the historical number of times of wearing (i.e., the number of times of wearing clothing A calculated when querying the number of times of wearing clothing A last time), and takes the sum of the effective number of times and the historical number of times of wearing as the total number of times clothing A has been worn currently. Among them, the "effective number of times" is the actual number of times of wearing calculated according to the single wearing cycle after calculating the historical number of times of wearing. As an example, corresponding to the above algorithm for counting the single wearing cycle, the calculation method of the effective number of times is as follows: in the case where the single wearing cycle is M days of wearing time, if the duration between calculating the historical number of times of wearing clothing A and calculating the current number of times of wearing clothing A contains several M days, such as three, then the first acquisition of the RFID tag information of clothing A within each M day is counted as wearing clothing A once, and the sum of the first acquisitions of the RFID tag information of clothing A within three M days is the effective number of times of clothing A during this period. For example, in the case where the single wearing cycle is two days and the duration between calculating the historical number of times of wearing clothing A and calculating the current number of times of wearing clothing A is eleven days, eleven days contains six single wearing cycles (the part exceeding but less than two days is also counted as a single wearing cycle). At this time, just look at which single wearing cycle the control terminal receives the RFID tag information of clothing A within these six single wearing cycles. If the control terminal receives the RFID tag information of clothing A within four single wearing cycles, then the effective number of times of clothing A is four times; in the case where the single wearing cycle is N times of being recognized, if the total number of times of receiving the tag information of clothing A by the control terminal between calculating the historical number of times of wearing clothing A and calculating the current number of times of wearing clothing A contains several N times, such as three, then every N times is counted as wearing clothing A once, and three times is the effective number of times of clothing A during this period (where the part exceeding but less than N times is also counted as wearing clothing A once).

[0027] Of course, in addition to the case of receiving the query instruction for the number of times of clothing wear sent by the user, it is also possible to set the control terminal to calculate and transmit the number of times of clothing wear to the smart wardrobe once every set number of days.

[0028] Regarding the above embodiments, it should be noted that, first of all, the installation position of the first switch, "the rotation area of the room door", is any area where the room door can turn on the first switch when it rotates, such as any position on the side where the room door is pivotally connected to the door frame, the ground area swept by the bottom of the room door when it rotates, etc. The set angle at which the room door is opened is specifically the angle at which the room door is opened to allow the user to enter and exit the room.

[0029] In addition, those skilled in the art can set the opening timing of the second switch according to the recognition requirements. For example, in a preferred scenario, when the second switch is set to be opened when a user is detected outside the room door, the first switch is opened when the user opens the room door, and the second switch is opened when the user moves outside the room door, and the RFID reading unit is powered on to read the RFID tag information of the clothes worn by the user when going out. In another preferred scenario, when the second switch is set to be opened when a user is detected inside the room door, the first switch is opened when the user opens the room door, and the second switch is opened when the user moves inside the room door, and the RFID reading unit is powered on to read the RFID tag information of the clothes worn by the user when entering the room. Those skilled in the art can set the installation position of the RFID reading unit according to the specific reading scenario. For example, when the RFID reading unit is powered on to read the RFID tag information of the clothes worn by the user when going out, the RFID reading unit is set outside the room door, and when the RFID reading unit is powered on to read the RFID tag information of the clothes worn by the user when entering the room, the RFID reading unit is set inside the room door, so as to reduce the distance between the RFID reading unit and the clothes to be read on the user when the RFID reading unit is working.

[0030] Furthermore, the control terminal can be any form of control device with data transmission, storage, and computing processing functions. For example, the control terminal can be a hardware control device set independently or integrated with the control module of the smart wardrobe, or it can be a cloud server.

[0031] Refer to again Figure 2 And continue to refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 is the circuit diagram of the preferred embodiment of the RFID reading device of the smart wardrobe system of the present invention. As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the RFID reading device further includes a power unit. The power unit is connected to the power supply in a manner parallel to the RFID reading unit, the main control unit, and the first switch, and the power unit can be powered on and started when the second switch is opened alone. From Figure 2As can be seen from the circuit diagram shown, in this preferred case, the RFID reading device includes a main line where the power supply is located and two branches connected in parallel to the main line. The power unit is arranged on one branch, the first switch, the RFID reading unit and the main control unit are arranged on the other branch, and the second switch is arranged on the main line. Taking the second unit being set to open when a user is detected outside the room door and the RFID reading device reading the RFID tag of the clothing when the user goes out to calculate the wearing times as an example, when only the room door is opened, the first switch is opened and the second switch is not activated, and the circuit is not powered on; when the user goes out, the room door is first opened, the first switch is opened, the circuit is not powered on, and then the user moves to the outside of the room door, the second switch is opened, the circuit is powered on, the power unit, the RFID reading unit and the main control unit are powered on and started simultaneously, and the total power when the RFID reading device reads the RFID tag of the clothing is always the sum of the operating powers of the power unit, the RFID reading unit and the main control unit; when the user enters the room, the user moves to the outside of the room door to cause the second switch to open, the branch where the power unit is located is connected to the power supply and started, the branch where the RFID reading unit is located is not powered on, the RFID reading device has an operating power, when the user opens the door and enters, the first switch is opened, the RFID reading unit and the main control unit are powered on and started, the RFID reading unit reads the RFID tag of the clothing, and the total power of the RFID reading device when reading the RFID tag of the clothing changes from small to large (initially it is the operating power of the power unit, and later it becomes the sum of the operating powers of the power unit, the RFID reading unit and the main control unit). When the main control unit transmits the RFID tag information read by the RFID reading device to the control terminal, it will also send the total power change information of the RFID reading device when reading the RFID tag to the control terminal at the same time, so that the control terminal can screen out all the RFID tag information read when the user goes out according to whether the total power of the RFID reading device changes, and thus calculate the wearing times of the clothing worn by the user when going out only according to the RFID tag information read when the total power of the RFID reading device remains unchanged, and screen and process the received RFID tag information. Of course, the control terminal can also screen the RFID tags read when the user enters the room according to the power change situation to calculate the wearing times of the clothing.

[0032] Alternatively, it is also possible to use an image acquisition device to distinguish whether the situation when reading the RFID tag information is the situation of the user going out or the situation of the user entering the room, so as to send the read RFID tag information to the control terminal only when the user goes out or enters the room.

[0033] As an example, the control terminal is a cloud server. The power unit is an indicator light that emits light when the RFID reading device reads the RFID tag information of the clothing, reminding the user that the RFID reading device is operating. The first switch is a first pressure-sensitive switch provided on the pivot side of the door frame of the room door. The first pressure-sensitive switch is configured to be squeezed and thus opened when the room door is opened to a set angle, and closed after the RFID reading unit reads the RFID tag information of the clothing. For example, the first switch is set to close after being opened for t seconds (the time t meets the reading and transmission requirements of the RFID tag information), or the main control unit controls the first switch to close after uploading the RFID tag information to the cloud server. The second switch includes a doormat laid outside the room door and a second pressure-sensitive switch provided on the doormat. The second pressure-sensitive switch can be opened when the user moves onto the doormat. Similarly, the second switch is closed after the RFID reading unit reads the RFID tag information of the clothing. For example, the second switch is set to close after being opened for t seconds (the time t meets the reading and transmission requirements of the RFID tag information), or the main control unit controls the second switch to close after uploading the RFID tag information to the cloud server. The RFID reading unit is provided above the outside of the room door to avoid the RFID reading unit being too close to the room door and prevent the metal room door from affecting the normal operation of the RFID reading unit. Preferably, when the RFID reading unit and the indicator light are provided outside the room door, the RFID reading device further includes a receiving member for receiving the RFID reading unit and the indicator light to provide anti-damage protection for the RFID reading unit and the indicator light. Those skilled in the art can set the receiving member in the shape of a camera device housing according to the protection requirements to provide camouflage protection for the RFID reading unit and the indicator light and reduce the probability of it being damaged artificially.

[0034] It should be noted that in actual applications, the installation positions of the first switch and the second switch can also be swapped. The first switch can be set on the main circuit, and the second switch can be set on the branch circuit in parallel with the indicator light. Furthermore, the first switch and the second switch do not have to be in the form of pressure-sensitive switches. For example, the first switch can be set as a push switch, or the second switch can be set as a human body induction switch, as long as the installation structures of the first switch and the second switch can be opened when the user opens the room door to a preset angle and when the user moves to the inside or outside of the room door. In addition, the power unit can also be set as other components with a certain operating power, such as a sound reminder (emitting a beeping reminder when the power unit is powered on).

[0035] Refer again to Figure 3 , Figure 3 is a flowchart of the steps of the control method of the intelligent wardrobe system of the present invention. As Figure 3 shown, based on any of the above intelligent wardrobe systems, the present invention also protects a control method of an intelligent wardrobe system, which includes the following steps:

[0036] Step S1: Read the RFID tag information of the clothes currently worn by the user;

[0037] Step S2: Send the read RFID tag information to the control terminal;

[0038] Step S3: The control terminal calculates the number of times the clothes worn by the user when going out according to the received RFID tag information;

[0039] Step S4: Send the calculated number of times the clothes worn by the user when going out to the communication module;

[0040] Step S5: The communication module transmits the received number of times the clothes worn by the user when going out to the prompt module.

[0041] Further, the RFID reading device further includes a power unit. The power unit is connected to the power supply in a manner parallel to the RFID reading unit, the main control unit, and the first switch, and the power unit can be powered on and started when the second switch is opened alone. In this case, the above step S2 "Send the read RFID tag information to the control terminal" specifically includes:

[0042] Send the total power change information when the RFID reading device reads the RFID tag information and the read RFID tag information to the control terminal together;

[0043] The above step S3 "The control terminal calculates the number of times the clothes worn by the user when going out according to the received RFID tag information" specifically includes:

[0044] The control terminal screens the RFID tag information read when the total power of the RFID reading device remains unchanged from all the RFID tag information;

[0045] Calculate the number of times the clothes worn by the user when going out according to the screened RFID tag information.

[0046] Even further, the step of "calculating the number of times the clothes worn by the user when going out according to the screened RFID tag information" specifically includes:

[0047] Determine the effective number of times of the received RFID tag information;

[0048] Retrieve the historical number of times of wearing that matches the screened RFID tag information;

[0049] Add the historical wear count and the valid count, and use the sum of the historical wear count and the valid count after accumulation as the wear count of the currently worn clothing when going out corresponding to the filtered RFID tag information. Here, the valid count is the actual wear count calculated based on the single wear cycle after calculating the historical wear count.

[0050] In addition, the step of "calculating the wear count of the clothing worn by the user when going out according to the filtered RFID tag information" specifically includes:

[0051] Obtain a query instruction for the clothing wear count;

[0052] If the query instruction is obtained, then calculate the wear count of the clothing worn by the user when going out according to the filtered RFID tag information.

[0053] Of course, when performing the step of calculating the wear count of the clothing worn by the user when going out according to the filtered RFID tag information, the execution timing of this step can be determined based on whether the query instruction for the clothing wear count is obtained, or it can be set to execute this step once every set time. Those skilled in the art can set when to calculate the clothing wear count according to the timing calculation requirements of the wear count.

[0054] In the above steps, when calculating the wear count of the clothing, in addition to applying the power change situation of the RFID reading device, in the case where the control terminal receives the single wear cycle parameter of the clothing set by the user, the specific methods of calculating the valid count and the current wear count of the clothing based on the valid count and the historical wear count have been described above, so the specific calculation process of the calculation steps will not be elaborated here.

[0055] In summary, the intelligent wardrobe system of the present invention includes a control terminal, an intelligent wardrobe capable of communicating with the control terminal, and an RFID reading device. Among them, the RFID reading device is provided with a first switch for the door opening situation and a second switch for the in-and-out situation, so as to read the RFID tag information of the clothing worn on the user's body only after the user opens the door and walks through the doorway, and then calculate the wear count of the corresponding clothing through the control terminal and feedback it to the intelligent wardrobe, effectively avoiding the misreading of the clothing RFID tag information in all living scenarios when the room door is only opened, facilitating the intelligent wardrobe to count the wear count of the clothing worn out by the user and easily soiled, thereby assisting the user in cleaning and nursing management of the easily soiled clothing.

[0056] So far, the technical solution of the present invention has been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that the protection scope of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principle of the present invention, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
