However, due to the diverse range of smart home devices and the fact that some functions can respond differently to different users, configuring various smart home devices is a very tedious task. It requires inputting different user preference parameters for each device individually, and frequent adjustments are needed based on the user's age range or activity level. This transforms what should be convenient smart home devices into a burden for users, resulting in a significant waste of time and a reduced user experience.

[0016] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0018] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a method for adjusting a smart home device is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart in the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions. Furthermore, although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be executed in a different order than that shown here.

[0019] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of an adjustment method for a smart home device according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0020] Step S102: If the detection result of the human body sensor in the target area indicates the presence of vital signs, the object corresponding to the aforementioned vital signs is taken as the target object.

[0021] It's understandable that the target area could be a home environment. The system acquires the detection results from the human body sensor within that area. If the detection results indicate the presence of vital signs, the object exhibiting these signs is designated as the target. Since the human body sensor operates on an infrared light source, the human body is more easily penetrated than surrounding devices.

[0022] It should be noted that the aforementioned human body sensor can also detect human vital signs, such as body temperature, in environmental objects.

[0023] Step S104: Control the monitoring equipment in the target area to collect the biometric features of the target object.

[0024] It is understandable that the monitoring equipment in the target area collects the biometric features of the aforementioned target objects.

[0025] Optionally, the aforementioned monitoring equipment can collect various types of information, such as image information, video information, or voice information, etc.

[0026] Optionally, the aforementioned biometric features can be of various types, such as facial features, voiceprint features, etc.

[0027] In one optional embodiment, the above-mentioned control of the monitoring device in the target area to collect the biometric features of the target object includes: waking up the monitoring device in the target area that is in a dormant state; and controlling the awakened monitoring device to rotate to the target direction corresponding to the target object to collect the biometric features.

[0028] It's understandable that continuously operating monitoring equipment would incur resource overhead when no living beings are present in the target area. Therefore, monitoring equipment typically goes into sleep mode when not in use. When the human sensor detects living beings, the target object is identified, and monitoring is deemed necessary. Therefore, the sleeping monitoring equipment in the target area is awakened, and its acquisition orientation is adjusted. The monitoring equipment rotates to the target object's corresponding direction for biometric data acquisition. This process reduces the power consumption of smart home devices and minimizes resource waste.

[0029] Step S106: Based on the above biometric features, determine the target age range of the target object and the current activity status of the target object.

[0030] It is understandable that, based on biometric features, the target age range of the target object is determined, and in order to make dynamic adjustments, the current activity status of the target object is also determined.

[0031] It should be noted that the current activity status mentioned above can be obtained by classifying multiple regular statuses collected by the monitoring equipment. For example, the preset regular activity statuses may include: exercise status, rest status, cooking status, bathing status, sleeping status, etc. Based on biometric features, the current activity status is determined from multiple preset regular activity statuses.

[0032] In an optional embodiment, when the biometric features include facial features and voiceprint features, determining the target age range of the target object based on the biometric features includes: determining a first age range corresponding to the target object based on the facial features; determining a second age range corresponding to the target object based on the voiceprint features; and obtaining the target age range corresponding to the target object based on the first age range and the second age range.

[0033] Understandably, to obtain a highly accurate target age range, facial features and voiceprint features are combined to identify the target age range. Based on facial features, the first age range corresponding to the target object is determined. Based on voiceprint features, the second age range corresponding to the target object is determined. A single first or second age range may have significant bias due to individual differences among target objects. Determining the target age range based on both the first and second age ranges helps improve the accuracy of the target age range.

[0034] Optionally, the target age range corresponding to the target object can be obtained based on the intersection of the first age range and the second age range.

[0035] Step S108: Based on the above target age range and the above current activity status, determine the target environmental parameters corresponding to the above target area.

[0036] It is understandable that there are static parameter settings for the target age range, and dynamic parameter settings for the current activity status. Combining static and dynamic settings helps to improve the accuracy of the target environmental parameters for the target area.

[0037] In one optional embodiment, determining the target environmental parameters corresponding to the target region based on the target age range and the current activity state includes: determining a first environmental parameter corresponding to the target region from a set of preset environmental parameters based on the target age range; determining a dynamic adjustment parameter corresponding to the current activity state; and adjusting the first environmental parameter based on the dynamic adjustment parameter to obtain the target environmental parameters.

[0038] It is understandable that, based on the characteristics of people of different ages, multiple preset environmental parameters can be obtained for different age ranges. Based on the target age range, a first environmental parameter corresponding to the target area is determined from these preset parameters. Since this first environmental parameter is determined from multiple preset parameters, it has strong universality but weak adaptability to specific target objects and specific activity states. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain a dynamic adjustment parameter based on the current activity state corresponding to the target object. The first environmental parameter is adjusted using the dynamic adjustment parameter to obtain the target environmental parameter. As can be seen from the above process, the dynamic adjustment parameter affects the first environmental parameter according to the current activity state. After the activity state changes, conditions can be automatically adjusted, avoiding frequent manual adjustments by the user. Furthermore, determining the first environmental parameter based on the target age range avoids setting parameters that are unfavorable to the characteristics of that age group.

[0039] To facilitate understanding, a specific example is given: if the target age range is 80 years and above, the target audience is the elderly. Common characteristics of the elderly include decreased vision, aging of the skin and mucous membranes, and poor moisturization. Based on the above target age range, the first environmental parameter includes adjusting the color temperature of the lights to a warm light suitable for the elderly, increasing the light intensity of the lamps, and keeping the room bright to meet the visual characteristics of the elderly. The first environmental parameter may also include increasing the room humidity to prevent the elderly from getting sick due to dryness of the nasal mucosa.

[0040] In an optional embodiment, adjusting the first environmental parameter based on the dynamic adjustment parameter to obtain the target environmental parameter includes: determining whether there is a preset preference setting parameter corresponding to the target object; if there is a preference setting parameter corresponding to the target object, adjusting the first environmental parameter based on the preference setting parameter and the dynamic adjustment parameter to obtain the target environmental parameter.

[0041] It is understandable that users have different usage preferences. If preference settings have been entered, there are preference settings corresponding to the target object. By introducing personalized settings and adjusting the first environment parameters, the target environment parameters can be obtained.

[0042] It should be noted that when there is a conflict between preference settings and dynamic adjustment parameters, prioritizing preference settings can provide a better user experience.

[0043] In one optional embodiment, adjusting the first environmental parameter based on the dynamic adjustment parameter to obtain the target environmental parameter includes: acquiring the body temperature information of the target object collected by the human body sensor; and adjusting the first environmental parameter based on the body temperature information and the dynamic adjustment parameter to obtain the target environmental parameter.

[0044] It is understandable that human body sensors, based on the principle of infrared radiation, can acquire the body temperature information of a target object. By taking the actual collected body temperature information into account, parameters are dynamically adjusted based on this information to regulate the primary environmental parameters, thereby obtaining the target environmental parameters.

[0045] It should be noted that when the target environmental parameter is temperature, combining body temperature information with dynamic information may lead to situations where the body temperature is significantly higher than normal in a resting state. In such cases, it is not advisable to blindly lower the body temperature, as the target may be ill and would become even more sensitive to cold.

[0046] Step S110: Control the first smart home device to adjust the current environmental parameters of the target area to the target environmental parameters.

[0047] It is understandable that controlling the first smart home device adjusts the current environmental parameters of the target area until the target environmental parameters are reached.

[0048] Optionally, the aforementioned first smart home device can be of various types, such as: fans, air conditioners, humidifiers, air purifiers, heating and cooling lamps, and indoor lighting fixtures, etc.

[0049] In an optional embodiment, controlling the first smart home device to adjust the current environmental parameters of the target area to the target environmental parameters includes: determining the first smart home device among a plurality of smart home devices in the target area based on the target environmental parameters; determining a predetermined adjustment completion time corresponding to the first smart home device based on the target age range; determining a target adjustment parameter corresponding to the first smart home device based on the current environmental parameters of the target area, the predetermined adjustment completion time, and the target environmental parameters; and controlling the first smart home device to adjust the current environmental parameters of the target area to the target environmental parameters based on the target adjustment parameters.

[0050] It is understandable that, based on target environmental parameters, a first smart home device is selected from among multiple smart home devices in the target area. Since different age groups have varying abilities to adapt to fluctuations in their surrounding environment, and certain age groups, such as very young or very old, are not adapted to rapid and drastic environmental changes, a predetermined adjustment completion time is determined for the first smart home device based on the target age range. Based on the current environmental parameters of the target area, the predetermined adjustment completion time, and the target environmental parameters, the target adjustment parameters for the first smart home device are determined. The first smart home device is then controlled to adjust the current environmental parameters of the target area to the target environmental parameters based on the target adjustment parameters. Through the above process, determining an appropriate predetermined adjustment completion time based on the target age range helps maintain the comfort of the target individual during the adjustment process from the current environmental parameters of the target area to the target environmental parameters.

[0051] In an optional embodiment, before determining the target adjustment parameter corresponding to the first smart home device based on the current environmental parameters of the target area, the predetermined adjustment completion time, and the target environmental parameters, the method further includes: determining the current operating parameters of the first smart home device; determining whether the first smart home device can adjust the current environmental parameters to the target environmental parameters within the predetermined adjustment completion time based on the current operating parameters; if the first smart home device can adjust the current environmental parameters of the target area to the target environmental parameters within the predetermined adjustment completion time based on the current operating parameters, the method further includes: determining the current operating parameters of the first smart home device based on the current operating parameters; determining whether the first smart home device can adjust the current environmental parameters of the target area to the target environmental parameters within the predetermined adjustment completion time based on the current operating parameters.

[0052] It is understandable that, in order to avoid unnecessary and frequent device startups, the current operating parameters of the first smart home device are determined. If the first smart home device can adjust the current environmental parameters to the target environment within a predetermined adjustment time based on the current operating parameters, it can be considered that no adjustment is needed. By using the current operating parameters, the current environmental parameters of the target area can be adjusted to the target environmental parameters.

[0053] In an optional embodiment, before the first smart home device adjusts the current environmental parameters of the target area to the target environmental parameters, the method further includes: determining the parameter difference between the target environmental parameters and the current environmental parameters; and not adjusting the first smart home device if the parameter difference is less than a preset difference threshold.

[0054] It is understandable that when the difference in environmental parameters is small, no adjustment is necessary. As long as the difference between the target environmental parameters and the current environmental parameters is less than the preset difference threshold, it is possible to avoid frequent changes in the first smart home device due to minor adjustments, which would lead to energy waste.

[0055] In an optional embodiment, the method further includes: acquiring the distance between the target object and the second smart home device collected by the human body sensor, wherein the second smart home device is a home device of a preset type in the target area; when the distance is less than a preset usage distance threshold, determining a target working mode corresponding to the second smart home device based on the target age range; and controlling the second smart home device to adjust to the target working mode.

[0056] It is understandable that human body sensors are used to obtain the distance between the target object and a second smart home device of a preset type. If the distance is less than the preset usage distance threshold, it is considered that the target object intends to use the second smart home device. Based on the target age range, the corresponding working mode of the second smart home device is determined, and the second smart home device is controlled to adjust to the target working mode.

[0057] Optionally, the aforementioned second smart home device can be of various types, such as: smart door lock, smart refrigerator, smart mattress, etc.

[0058] To illustrate this, consider the following examples: For the target age range of 80 years and above, the target audience is the elderly. For smart mattresses, given the elderly's weaker skeletal muscles and need for higher firmness, and their poorer blood circulation requiring heating, the corresponding operating mode is heating and firming. For children aged 0-3 years, whose faster metabolism makes them more sensitive to heat, the smart mattress needs cooling; therefore, its operating mode is cooling. Similarly, for smart locks, the elderly often use facial recognition to unlock doors due to fingerprint fading or wear. Preschool children cannot unlock doors independently; therefore, for children, the smart lock's operating mode is "unlock only in emergencies." For smart refrigerators targeting elderly users, which are not suited to diets high in oil and salt, the recipe recommendation mode of the smart refrigerator can be activated. The amount of various seasonings in the recommended recipes will be adjusted to be suitable for the elderly, and the proportion of greasy food in the recommended recipes will be reduced and the dietary fiber will be increased.

[0059] In one optional embodiment, the distance between the target object and the second smart home device collected by the human body sensor is obtained, wherein the second smart home device is a home device of a preset type in the target area; if the distance is less than a preset usage distance threshold, it is determined whether there is a predetermined preferred working mode of the second smart home device corresponding to the target object; if the predetermined preferred working mode exists, the second smart home device is controlled to adjust to the predetermined preferred working mode.

[0060] It is understandable that if the distance is less than the preset usage distance threshold, it is considered that the target object intends to use the second smart home device. If a preset preferred working mode has been recorded, the second smart home device is controlled to adjust to the above-mentioned preset preferred working mode, which reflects the emphasis on personalized preference settings.

[0061] Through the above steps, the system can automatically adjust based on age range and current activity status, thereby reducing user setup work, improving device adjustment efficiency, and enhancing user experience. This solves the technical problem in related technologies where frequent parameter settings for smart home devices lead to excessive effort and reduced user comfort.

[0062] Based on the above embodiments and optional embodiments, the present invention proposes an optional implementation method. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of an optional adjustment method for a smart home device according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the human sensor first detects vital signs in the target area. Once vital signs are detected, the target object corresponding to those signs is identified. Monitoring devices in the target area are in sleep mode when not in use. When the human sensor detects vital signs, the target object is identified and monitoring is deemed necessary. Therefore, the sleep-bound monitoring device in the target area is awakened, and its acquisition orientation is adjusted. The device rotates to the target direction corresponding to the biometric features of the target object for acquisition. This process reduces the energy consumed by adjusting smart home devices, minimizing resource waste.

[0063] Subsequently, based on biometric features (facial features and voiceprint features), the target age range for the target object is determined. Furthermore, to allow for dynamic adjustments, the current activity state of the target object is also determined. To obtain a highly accurate target age range, facial features and voiceprint features are combined to identify the target age range. Based on facial features, a first age range corresponding to the target object is determined. Based on voiceprint features, a second age range corresponding to the target object is determined. A single first or second age range may have significant deviations due to individual differences among target objects. Determining the target age range based on the intersection of the first and second age ranges helps improve the accuracy of the target age range.

[0064] Next, based on the characteristics of people of different ages, multiple preset environmental parameters can be obtained for different age ranges. Based on the target age range, a first environmental parameter corresponding to the target area is determined from these preset parameters. Based on the current activity state of the target object, a dynamic adjustment parameter corresponding to the current activity state is obtained. Based on the dynamic adjustment parameter, the first environmental parameter is adjusted to obtain the target environmental parameter. After the activity state changes, the conditions can be automatically adjusted, avoiding frequent manual adjustments by the user.

[0065] When the target audience is the elderly, common characteristics of the elderly include decreased vision and poor skin and mucous membrane aging and moisture retention. Based on the above target age range, the first environmental parameters include adjusting the color temperature of the lights to warm light that is suitable for the elderly, increasing the light intensity of the lamps, and keeping the room bright to meet the visual characteristics of the elderly. The first environmental parameters may also include increasing the room humidity to prevent the elderly from getting sick due to dry nasal mucosa.

[0066] The system controls a first set of smart home devices (including fans, air conditioners, humidifiers, air purifiers, heating and cooling lights, and indoor lighting) to adjust the current environmental parameters of the target area until the target environmental parameters are reached. Based on the target environmental parameters, the first smart home device is selected from among multiple smart home devices in the target area. Since different age groups have varying abilities to adapt to fluctuations in their surrounding environment, and certain age groups, such as very young or very old, are not adapted to drastic changes in the environment in a short period, a predetermined adjustment completion time for the first smart home device is determined based on the target age range.

[0067] If the first smart home device can adjust the current environmental parameters to the target environment within the predetermined adjustment time based on the current operating parameters, it can be considered that no adjustment is needed. The current environmental parameters of the target area can be adjusted to the target environmental parameters using the current operating parameters.

[0068] If the first smart home device cannot adjust the current environmental parameters to the target environment within the predetermined adjustment completion time based on the current operating parameters of the target area, the predetermined adjustment completion time, and the target environmental parameters, a target adjustment parameter corresponding to the first smart home device is determined. The first smart home device is then controlled to adjust the current environmental parameters of the target area to the target environmental parameters based on the target adjustment parameter.

[0069] The above-mentioned optional implementation methods achieve at least the following effects: The physical characteristics of children, teenagers, middle-aged people, and the elderly differ across age groups, and their requirements for the home environment also vary. For example, children's skin is delicate and sensitive to temperature, so smart water heaters need to lower the water temperature during bathing. The elderly experience decline in vision, hearing, mobility, and reaction speed, requiring greater ease of operation from home systems. Therefore, the parameters of home devices need to be adaptively adjusted according to age and activity levels. By using human body sensors and monitoring equipment to determine the age range of the target individual, the environment can be automatically adjusted. Based on the current activity state, dynamic adjustments can be completed without complex or frequent operations, improving the flexibility of smart home devices and increasing user comfort.

[0070] It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart in the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions, and although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases the steps shown or described may be executed in a different order than that shown here.

[0071] This invention also provides an adjustment system for smart home devices. The following describes the adjustment system for smart home devices provided in this invention.

[0072] Figure 3 This is a structural block diagram of the adjustment system for a smart home device provided according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the system includes: a human body sensor 302, a main control device 304, and a monitoring device 306. The system will be described below.

[0077] In an adjustment system for a smart home device provided by this invention, a human body sensor 302 is used to detect vital signs in a target area and obtain detection results. A main control device 304, connected to the human body sensor 302, is used to identify the object corresponding to the vital signs as the target object when the detection results indicate the presence of vital signs. A monitoring device 306, connected to the main control device 304, is used to collect the biometric features of the target object. The main control device 304 is also used to determine the target age range and the current activity state of the target object based on the biometric features; determine the target environmental parameters corresponding to the target area based on the target age range and the current activity state; and control the first smart home device to adjust the current environmental parameters of the target area to the target environmental parameters. This achieves the purpose of automatic adjustment based on age range and current activity state, thereby reducing the user's setup work, improving device adjustment efficiency, and enhancing the user experience. It also solves the technical problem of frequent parameter settings for smart home devices, which leads to a lot of effort and reduces user comfort.

[0078] This embodiment also provides an adjustment device for a smart home device, which is used to implement the above embodiments and preferred embodiments; details already described will not be repeated. As used below, the terms "module" and "device" can refer to a combination of software and / or hardware that performs a predetermined function.
