[0042] See also Figure 1 , is a beacon laying method provided in an embodiment of the present application. The beacon laying method can be executed by a beacon laying device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The device can be implemented in software and / or hardware, and can be a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone. In this embodiment, the beacon laying method is applied to a mobile terminal as an example. The method includes:

[0043] Step S101: while the mobile terminal is moving from the destination to the starting point, obtaining the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the last turning intersection; the last turning intersection is the turning intersection that the mobile terminal has passed most recently.

[0044] It is understandable that when a user needs to lay beacons between a starting point (such as a parking lot entrance) and a destination (such as a parking space or an elevator entrance in a parking lot) to provide navigation services, if the mobile terminal is carried from the starting point to the destination to lay beacons, since the distance between the current position and the intersection that needs to be turned in front cannot be obtained, the laying position of the beacon cannot be accurately determined. Therefore, it is necessary to carry the mobile terminal from the destination to the starting point to perform the beacon laying operation. It should be noted that the destination and the starting point may be located in a building or space such as a shopping mall complex, a mine, or an underground parking lot. In this embodiment, the destination is a certain position in an indoor parking lot, and the starting point is an entrance to an indoor parking lot. For example, the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the last turning intersection can include obtaining the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the last turning intersection and the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the last beacon. It should be noted that the turning intersection refers to an intersection where the direction of movement changes when passing through, such as turning left or right from the intersection.

[0045] In one embodiment, before obtaining the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the last turning intersection, it also includes: in response to the start instruction, turning on the pathfinding mode. Optionally, the mobile terminal is provided with a pathfinding mode to implement the beacon laying method provided in this embodiment. When the user is ready to use the mobile terminal for beacon laying, the pathfinding mode in the mobile terminal can be turned on at the destination first to trigger the mobile terminal to obtain the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the last turning intersection and the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the last beacon during the movement process. It should be noted that after the mobile terminal turns on the pathfinding mode at the destination, it will output a reminder message for setting a starting beacon, so as to set the beacon type at the destination as a starting type beacon.

[0046] In one embodiment, before obtaining the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the last turning intersection, the method further includes:

[0047] Detecting whether the mobile terminal passes a turning intersection according to gyroscope data of the mobile terminal;

[0048] When it is determined that the mobile terminal passes through a turning intersection, the information of the turning intersection passed is recorded, and the step of obtaining the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the previous turning intersection is performed.

[0049] Optionally, the mobile terminal is provided with a gyroscope, and the direction of movement of the mobile terminal, such as whether it is going straight or turning, can be obtained based on the gyroscope data of the mobile terminal. When the direction of movement of the mobile terminal is turning, it indicates that the mobile terminal is passing through a turning intersection. Therefore, it is possible to detect whether the mobile terminal has passed through a turning intersection based on the gyroscope data of the mobile terminal, and when it is determined that the mobile terminal has passed through a turning intersection, the information of the turning intersection passed through is recorded, such as the type of turning, the distance between the turning intersection and the destination or the previous turning intersection, etc., and the step of obtaining the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the previous turning intersection is performed. In this way, the gyroscope can be used to accurately obtain whether the mobile terminal has passed through a turning intersection, further improving the accuracy of beacon laying.

[0050] In one implementation, obtaining the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the last turning intersection includes:

[0051] The distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the previous turning intersection is obtained based on the pedometer data of the mobile terminal from the previous turning intersection to the current position.

[0052] Optionally, a pedometer sensor is provided in the mobile terminal, and the pedometer data of the mobile terminal can be used to obtain the number of steps taken by the user within a certain range, such as the number of steps taken from the last turning intersection or the last beacon to the current position. Since the distance taken by each step of the user can be regarded as approximately the same, the number of steps taken by the user within a certain range can be multiplied by the distance taken by each step of the user to obtain the walking distance of the user within a certain range, and the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and a certain position can be obtained accordingly, such as the distance from the last turning intersection or the last beacon to the current position. In this way, the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the last turning intersection or the last beacon can be accurately obtained through the pedometer, further improving the accuracy of beacon laying.

[0053] Step S102: When it is determined that the distance meets a preset distance condition, beacon laying reminder information is output.

[0054] Optionally, see Figure 2, the logical process of laying beacons in this embodiment is as follows: the worker starts walking from the destination in the opposite direction to the entrance and turns on the pathfinder mode. When encountering the first turning intersection, the turning point will be recorded in the cache. If the worker continues to move forward, the beacon distance logic algorithm will be triggered to remind the worker to lay the beacon. The beacon distance logic algorithm in this embodiment is as follows: Assuming that the user is about to pass an intersection by driving at a speed of x, the best reminder time is when the navigation prompt information corresponding to the beacon is played and the user just arrives at the intersection. If the signal radius of the beacon is r, the user's reaction time is t and the voice playback time is T, then the calculation formula of the distance S between the beacon and the intersection is: S>=(t+T)*xr. That is to say, when the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the previous turning intersection is greater than or equal to (t+T)*xr, it means that the corresponding beacon needs to be laid at the current position, and the beacon laying reminder information is output. Optionally, the beacon laying reminder information can be a beacon laying voice and / or text reminder information, which is not specifically limited here. It should be noted that when the distance between the current position and the previous turning intersection is greater than or equal to (t+T)*x, beacon laying reminder information can also be output. In addition, each time the mobile terminal passes a turning intersection, only one beacon can be set accordingly. It should be noted that in order to set only one beacon or reasonably set multiple beacons for each turning intersection passed by the mobile terminal, the distance that meets the preset distance condition can be that the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the previous turning intersection is greater than or equal to (t+T)*xr, and the distance between the current position of the mobile terminal and the previous beacon is greater than or equal to (t+T)*x.

[0055] Step S103: In response to the configuration instruction, configure the target beacon to be laid at the current position.

[0056] Optionally, the beacon in this embodiment may be a Bluetooth beacon. The mobile terminal may provide a setting interface for configuring the beacon, and when receiving a configuration instruction input by a user, configure the target beacon to be laid at the current location according to the configuration instruction.

[0057] In one embodiment, in response to the configuration instruction, configuring the target beacon to be laid at the current location includes:

[0058] In response to the configuration instruction, the identification of the target beacon is obtained through the Bluetooth connection with the target beacon, and the path identification information from the destination to the starting point is sent to the target beacon;

[0059] The beacon type of the target beacon is determined based on the previous turning intersection information, and the identity identifier and the beacon type are used as configuration information of the target beacon.

[0060] Optionally, after obtaining the configuration instruction, the mobile terminal may establish a Bluetooth connection with the target beacon to be laid at the current location, and then obtain the identity of the target beacon, such as the MAC address or ID of the target beacon, through the Bluetooth connection with the target beacon, and send the path identification information and station identification information from the destination to the starting point to the target beacon. Among them, the station identification information is used to characterize the location of the destination. At the same time, the mobile terminal can determine the beacon type of the target beacon based on the previous turning intersection information, and use the identity and the beacon type as the configuration information of the target beacon. It should be noted that the beacon type of the target beacon can be used to characterize the navigation indication function corresponding to the target beacon, such as indicating left turn, right turn, uphill or downhill, etc. It can be understood that, since the last turning intersection information records the turning type of the mobile terminal when passing the last turning intersection during the movement from the destination to the starting point, such as left turn or right turn, the beacon type of the target beacon can be determined based on the last turning intersection information, such as setting the turning type of the mobile terminal when passing the last turning intersection as the beacon type of the target beacon. In addition, the mobile terminal uses the identity and the beacon type as the configuration information of the target beacon to achieve navigation based on the configuration information of the target beacon.

[0061] In one embodiment, the configuration information further includes at least one of the following information: a reminder type, an identity of an adjacent beacon, and location information. The reminder type may be a voice reminder type or a text reminder type, or may be a left turn reminder type, a right turn reminder type, etc. The location information may be the distance between the current location and the previous turning intersection, etc.

[0062] In one embodiment, before the target beacon to be laid at the current position is configured based on the information of the last turning intersection in response to the configuration instruction, it also includes: closing or pausing the pathfinding mode. It can be understood that after the mobile terminal outputs the beacon laying reminder information, the pathfinding mode can be closed or suspended based on the user inputting an operation instruction to the mobile terminal, or the pathfinding mode can be automatically closed or suspended, and then the step of configuring the target beacon to be laid at the current position based on the information of the last turning intersection in response to the configuration instruction is executed. In addition, after the target beacon to be laid at the current position is configured in response to the configuration instruction, the mobile terminal will reopen or continue the pathfinding mode to continue to provide beacon laying services. It should be noted that after reaching the starting point, the mobile terminal will output a reminder message for setting an end beacon to set the beacon type at the starting point as an end type beacon.

[0063] In summary, in the beacon laying method provided in the above embodiment, you only need to carry the mobile terminal and walk along the path where the beacon is to be laid. The mobile terminal will automatically determine the beacon laying location and remind you to lay the beacon. At the same time, it can automatically configure the beacon, which improves the efficiency and accuracy of beacon laying and reduces costs.

[0064] In one embodiment, the last turning intersection information includes altitude sensor data of the mobile terminal when passing the last turning intersection; and determining the beacon type of the target beacon based on the last turning intersection information includes:

[0065] Based on the altitude sensor data of the mobile terminal at the current position and the altitude sensor data when the mobile terminal passes the last turning intersection, detecting whether the floor where the mobile terminal is located has changed;

[0066] The beacon type of the target beacon is set accordingly according to the detection result.

[0067] It can be understood that when the destination and the starting point are on different floors, for example, the destination is located on the second underground floor, and the starting point is located on the first underground floor, at this time, when the mobile terminal passes through the turning intersection, if the altitude data of the mobile terminal changes, such as increasing by 2 meters or decreasing by 2 meters, it means that the floor where the mobile terminal is located has changed, that is, it means that the mobile terminal is going uphill or downhill while passing through the turning intersection. Therefore, based on the altitude sensor data of the mobile terminal at the current position and the altitude sensor data when passing through the previous turning intersection, it can be analyzed whether the altitude data of the mobile terminal increases or decreases. If the altitude data of the mobile terminal increases or decreases significantly, it means that the floor where the mobile terminal is located has changed, and the beacon type of the target beacon is set accordingly. For example, if the altitude data of the mobile terminal increases, the beacon type of the target beacon is set to the uphill type; if the altitude data of the mobile terminal decreases, the beacon type of the target beacon is set to the downhill type. In this way, by setting the beacon type of the beacon accordingly through the altitude sensor data of the mobile terminal, beacons on multiple floors can be distinguished, and the efficiency of beacon laying is further improved.

[0068] In one embodiment, the method further comprises: after all beacons from the destination to the starting point are laid, the beacon types of all beacons are inverted to obtain beacon navigation data from the starting point to the destination. It can be understood that since the laying of beacons starts from the destination, and the beacon type of the target beacon to be laid at the current position is determined based on the information of the last turning intersection, and the vehicle that needs to provide navigation service actually moves from the starting point to the destination, therefore, after all beacons from the destination to the starting point are laid, the beacon types of all beacons are inverted, that is, left turns to right turns, right turns to left turns, downhill turns to uphill, and uphill turns to downhill, so as to obtain beacon navigation data from the starting point to the destination. Among them, the beacon navigation data may include the beacon type, identity, reminder type, location information, etc. of each laid beacon. In addition, the mobile terminal sends the beacon navigation data from the starting point to the destination to the server, so that it can be downloaded and used by the application with indoor navigation function. In this way, based on the laid beacons, beacon navigation data from the starting point to the destination can be quickly obtained, thereby enabling rapid provision of navigation services and improving user experience.

[0069] Based on the same inventive concept as the above-mentioned embodiment, the above-mentioned embodiment is described in detail below through a specific example. In this example, the mobile terminal is taken as a mobile phone.

[0070] See also Figure 3 The process of the beacon laying method provided in this embodiment is as follows: the worker needs to walk from the destination of the underground parking lot to the entrance, and at the same time open the beacon laying software in the mobile phone, click the start laying button, then the mobile phone will turn on the pathfinding mode, and obtain the data of the gyroscope, pedometer and altitude sensor of the mobile phone in real time. The direction of the worker's walking can be obtained through the gyroscope of the mobile phone, the approximate walking distance can be obtained through the pedometer, and the altitude data can be used to determine whether the worker's position has changed in the floor. With the parameters of direction, distance and floor, the approximate path model of the underground parking lot can be drawn. With the path model, the direction and orientation of each intersection on the path model can be known, and then the worker can be automatically prompted to place a beacon at this point according to the intersection direction and beacon distance algorithm, and the configuration beacon pop-up window will pop up on the mobile phone interface and the pathfinding mode will be suspended. The worker clicks to configure the beacon, and then it will interact with the beacon through Bluetooth, obtain the unique identifier of the beacon, and package the point data and beacon data into the model. After recording is completed, the pathfinding mode is restarted. If the altitude data changes significantly, it is determined as a floor switch, and the downhill beacon data is written again until the worker walks to the entrance of the underground parking lot to configure the start beacon. At this point, the beacon laying process for the entire single path is completed.

[0071] The beacon laying process of the entire path is from the end point to the starting point, because the beacon laying algorithm is based on the distance intersection algorithm, and the pedometer is used to roughly calculate the distance traveled from the intersection, and then the beacon laying point is obtained. At the end of the whole process, the entire path model will be reversed, such as turning left to right, and uphill to downhill, so the whole process is the beacon data model from the entrance to the destination.

[0072] For the case of multiple entrances and multiple routes, after the path model is generated, the beacons on multiple paths will be automatically set to blacklist each other. Through the blacklist setting, beacons on different paths will only be associated with beacons on the same path, and blacklisted beacons will not be processed even if they are received.

[0073] The specific implementation process is as follows:

[0074] First, the gyroscope sensor of the mobile phone can obtain horizontal data, which can determine the current walking direction of the worker. Then, the walking distance can be obtained through the pedometer. According to the height of the worker of about 175cm, the walking speed is 1.5m / s, the step frequency is less than 60, and the approximate distance of each step is 65cm. Then, multiply the number of steps num obtained by the pedometer by the spacing K between each step to obtain the corresponding distance L=num*K. The change of floors can be detected through the altitude data, and with the concept of floors, the overlap problem of beacons in multi-story underground parking lots can be solved.

[0075] The logic of laying beacons is roughly like this: workers start from the destination and walk in reverse to the entrance and turn on the pathfinding mode of the mobile phone. When encountering the first turning intersection, the mobile phone will record the turning point in the cache. If it continues to move forward, it will trigger the beacon distance logic algorithm to remind the worker to place the beacon. Here, the distance logic of laying beacons is as follows: Assuming that the user is about to pass an intersection when driving at a speed x, the best reminder time is when the navigation prompt information corresponding to the beacon is played and the user just arrives at the intersection. If the signal radius of the beacon is r, the user's reaction time is t and the voice playback time is T, then the calculation formula for the distance S between the beacon and the intersection is: S> = (t+T)*xr, such as Figure 2As shown. The above formula can finally determine the distance from the beacon to the intersection, and the orientation of the beacon is determined. Finally, the mobile phone automatically reminds the worker to place the beacon and turn off the pathfinding mode, and the worker starts to configure the beacon. The configured beacon obtains the unique identifier of the beacon through the Bluetooth of the mobile phone, and then stores it in the path model together with the data model. The data model object contains the beacon orientation, beacon type, prompt type, beacon unique identifier, blacklist, and the relationship between the upper and lower beacons. After the beacon configuration is completed, the worker turns on the pathfinding mode, and so on until the entrance is reached and the last start beacon is configured. The entire path model is constructed, and the path model contains the direction and length of each road in the path, the orientation of each beacon, the orientation of the starting point and the end point, the model object for configuring the beacon, and the path distinction of different floors.

[0076] For underground parking lots with multiple entrances, there are bound to be multiple paths, and there is a high possibility of intersections. If there are intersections, all beacons on different paths of the current underground parking lot can be blacklisted so that beacons on the same path will not be processed by default when they read beacons on other paths.

[0077] When all the paths are completed, there will be a final generation process. This process will invert the data of the reverse configuration process, that is, generate a new data model according to the normal rule of the user driving into the warehouse to the destination. The newly generated data model will be uploaded to the server and downloaded and used by the app with indoor navigation function. The inversion process is as follows Figure 4 As shown. Among them, Figure 4 (a) represents the beacon data model generated from the destination to the entrance, Figure 4 (b) shows the beacon data model generated from the entrance to the destination after inversion.

[0078] In summary, this embodiment provides a beacon laying method with the following innovations: low laying cost, no need for CAD drawings or floor plans of underground parking lots, one person only needs a mobile phone to complete the beacon laying of a path, simple operation, no need for construction personnel to calculate and measure during the whole process, and when they arrive at the laying point, it will automatically remind the workers to lay the beacon, and automatically obtain the beacon identifier through Bluetooth and store it in the data model, which improves the laying efficiency and greatly reduces the human error rate.

[0079] Based on the same inventive concept as the above embodiments, the embodiment of the present invention provides a beacon laying device, such as Figure 5 As shown, the device includes: a processor 310 and a memory 311 storing a computer program; wherein, Figure 5 The processor 310 shown in the figure is not used to indicate that the number of the processor 310 is one, but is only used to indicate the positional relationship of the processor 310 relative to other devices. In actual applications, the number of the processor 310 may be one or more; similarly, Figure 5 The memory 311 shown in the figure has the same meaning, that is, it is only used to refer to the position relationship of the memory 311 relative to other devices. In practical applications, the number of memories 311 can be one or more. When the processor 310 runs the computer program, the beacon laying method applied to the above device is implemented.

[0080] The device may also include: at least one network interface 312. The various components in the device are coupled together via a bus system 313. It is understood that the bus system 313 is used to achieve connection and communication between these components. In addition to the data bus, the bus system 313 also includes a power bus, a control bus, and a status signal bus.
