[0039] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in this invention or the prior art, the drawings used in the description of the embodiments or the prior art will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings described below are some embodiments of this invention. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained from these drawings without creative effort.

[0040] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the monitoring method provided by the present invention;

[0041] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the monitoring device provided by the present invention;

[0042] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the electronic device provided by the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0043] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the technical solutions of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0044] The following is combined with Figures 1-3 The present invention describes a monitoring method, a monitoring device, an air conditioner, and an electronic device.

[0045] The execution subject of the monitoring method in this embodiment of the invention can be a controller. In some embodiments, the execution subject can also be a server. The execution subject of the monitoring method in this embodiment of the invention is not limited here. The monitoring method in this embodiment of the invention will be described below using a controller as the execution subject.

[0046] Reference Figure 1 The monitoring method of this invention mainly includes steps 110, 120, 130 and 140.

[0047] Step 110: Listen to the status information of the door lock.

[0048] It is understandable that the status information of a door lock includes open, closed, and unlocked states.

[0049] In some embodiments, for smart locks, the smart lock and the controller can communicate with each other. The smart lock can automatically determine its status information. The controller can acquire the status information in real time for monitoring.

[0050] In other embodiments, for door locks that do not have communication functions, sensors can be set at the door lock location to monitor the door lock status information, and the controller can determine the door lock status information by reading the sensor data.

[0051] For example, infrared sensors and vibration sensors can be installed inside the keyhole.

[0052] Step 120: If, during the first target time period, the door lock is detected switching from closed to unlocked and then back to closed for the Mth time, the first target monitoring file within the first target area is sent to the first target object.

[0053] The door lock switches from the closed state to the unlocked state, and then switches back from the unlocked state to the closed state. In this situation, it can be determined that the door lock was attempted to be opened, but failed, which may indicate abnormal unlocking behavior.

[0054] However, considering special cases such as users picking up the wrong key, entering the wrong password, and large fingerprint recognition errors, M is set to an integer greater than 1.

[0055] In this situation, users are given a chance to make mistakes. Therefore, an abnormal unlocking behavior is only defined as an abnormal intrusion situation when it occurs for the Mth time within the first target time period.

[0056] If an abnormal intrusion is identified, send the first target monitoring file within the first target area to the first target object.

[0057] It is understandable that the primary target could be a user who has been granted permission in advance to identify and judge abnormal intrusion behavior.

[0058] The first target area is the area where the door lock is located. When the door lock is being opened, the person unlocking the door must be within the target area.

[0059] Abnormal status information of the door lock can be monitored during the first target time period. The length of the first target time period can be set to a fixed value, such as 30 minutes or 40 minutes. Of course, the length of the first target time period can also be automatically determined according to the actual situation. There is no limit to the length of the first target time period here.

[0060] The primary target monitoring file can be a monitoring video file or a monitoring image file. This primary target monitoring file can be obtained through a monitoring camera or a terminal with monitoring capabilities.

[0061] Taking a surveillance camera as an example, the surveillance camera can communicate with the controller and can be installed in a suitable location to monitor the primary target area according to actual needs.

[0062] In cases where an abnormal intrusion is identified, the surveillance footage from the camera within the first target time period can be directly extracted to obtain the first target surveillance footage containing the data used to monitor the abnormal intrusion behavior.

[0063] After obtaining the first target monitoring file, the first target monitoring file can be sent to the first target object. Specifically, the first target monitoring file can be sent to the first target object's smart terminal via email or an application.

[0064] The first target object can review the received first target monitoring file to further determine the security of abnormal intrusion behaviors in the first target monitoring file.

[0065] For example, abnormal intrusion behavior could be the user's failure to unlock the door normally, the user's attempt to unlock the door being interrupted, or the door lock failing to unlock abnormally.

[0066] In this situation, the first target can determine the automatically identified abnormal intrusion behavior as safe by reviewing the first target monitoring file, thus eliminating the need to issue an alarm.

[0067] For example, an abnormal intrusion behavior could be a stranger failing to unlock a door. In this case, the primary target can review the monitoring files of the primary target to determine the automatically identified abnormal intrusion behavior as unsafe and then trigger an alarm.

[0068] Step 130: If the first target input information of the first target object is received within the second target time period, determine that the first target input information includes alarm information.

[0069] The second target time period can be a fixed time period, such as 60 minutes, 90 minutes, 120 minutes, or 180 minutes. There is no restriction on the length of the second target time period.

[0070] It is understandable that after receiving and reviewing the first target monitoring file, the first target object can input the first target input information through a smart terminal.

[0071] The input methods for the primary target information include, but are not limited to, touch input, voice input, and physical button input.

[0072] For example, after the first target object views the first target monitoring file on the phone's security application, a control can automatically pop up on the phone's screen to select whether it is safe.

[0073] The controls can include "safe controls" or "unsafe controls". After the first target object clicks the corresponding control, it can determine the input content of the first target input information.

[0074] After receiving a click operation from the first target object on the "unsafe control", it can be determined that the input information of the first target includes alarm information.

[0075] The first target input information is used to confirm that automatically identified abnormal intrusion behavior is unsafe.

[0076] Step 140: Send alarm information to the networked alarm system and store the first target monitoring file.

[0077] Understandably, if the input information for the first target includes alarm information, the alarm information is sent to the networked alarm system and the monitoring file for the first target is stored.

[0078] A networked alarm system is an automatic alarm receiving and alarm platform. It can be an alarm management platform built by an operator in a monitoring center. The networked alarm system communicates with networked alarm devices and detection equipment installed by businesses and households that have installed burglar alarm systems.

[0079] Networked alarm systems can transmit alarms detected by these distributed alarm devices to a management platform via various transmission methods through networked alarm software. The central platform then handles the alarms, and the operator's operational system provides real-time processing to minimize losses and facilitate traceability. Upon receiving alarm information, the networked alarm system can promptly issue an alert.

[0080] To facilitate the recording and archiving of unsafe and abnormal intrusion behaviors, and to make it easier to monitor and detect them, the monitoring file of the first target can be stored when the first target input information includes alarm information.

[0081] It is understandable that the first target monitoring file can be stored locally or on a cloud server; there are no restrictions on the storage location of the first target monitoring file.

[0082] When the first target object needs to be monitored and replayed, the stored monitoring file of the first target can be retrieved directly, without having to manually search and retrieve the monitoring file from a large number of cumbersome monitoring files, which improves the efficiency of filtering and enhances the user experience.

[0083] According to the monitoring method provided in the embodiments of the present invention, by monitoring the status information of the door lock in real time, the abnormal status of the monitoring area can be automatically determined according to the status of the door lock, and the corresponding monitoring file can be sent to the user for security judgment. This makes it convenient for the user to issue an alarm and directly obtain the monitoring file, improves the efficiency of filtering monitoring files, and enhances the user experience.

[0084] In some embodiments, after the step of sending the first target monitoring file within the first target area to the first target object, the method further includes: if the first target input information of the first target object is not received within the second target time period, sending alarm information to the networked alarm system and storing the target monitoring file.

[0085] It is understandable that the primary target may be too busy or unable to check the smart terminal in a timely manner, thus failing to promptly determine the automatically identified abnormal intrusion behavior.

[0086] In this situation, considering the security and urgency of abnormal intrusion behavior, an alarm message can be automatically sent to the networked alarm system and the target monitoring file can be stored if the first target object is not identified within a certain period of time.

[0087] In this embodiment, the actual situation of the user is fully considered, and the security of abnormal intrusion behavior is taken into account. It can automatically trigger alarms and store monitoring files, thereby improving the security under monitoring.

[0088] In some embodiments, after step 110: listening to the status information of the door lock, the method further includes: when the door lock is listened to for the Nth time in the first target time period, switching from the closed state to the unlocked state and then switching from the unlocked state to the open state, obtaining the second target monitoring file in the second target area in the third target time period.

[0089] It should be noted that N is a positive integer. In this case, by listening to the door lock's status information, it can be determined that the door lock has been opened.

[0090] Understandably, a door lock can be opened by a trusted user, or it can be opened by an unauthorized intruder.

[0091] In this situation, it is necessary to identify the person who unlocks the door in order to determine security.

[0092] It is understandable that the starting point of the third target time period can be the moment when the door lock is detected to be in the open state. The length of the third target time period can be a fixed length, such as 30 minutes or 40 minutes, or it can be automatically determined according to the actual situation. There is no limit to the length of the third target time period here.

[0093] The second target area is the indoor area after the door lock is opened, or other areas separated by the door. For example, in a home setting, the second target area could be the living room area.

[0094] The second target monitoring file can be a monitoring video file or a monitoring image file. This second target monitoring file can be obtained through a monitoring camera or a terminal with monitoring capabilities.

[0095] Taking a surveillance camera as an example, the surveillance camera can communicate with the controller and can be installed in a suitable location to monitor the first target area according to actual needs. In this embodiment, the surveillance camera can be installed in the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0096] It is possible to obtain a second target monitoring file obtained from a surveillance camera. In this embodiment, the matching degree between a second target object within a second target area and a preset target object can be determined based on the second target monitoring file.

[0097] The second target is the personnel identified by monitoring in the second target area during the third target time period.

[0098] In this situation, the matching degree between the second target object and the preset target object can be determined by automatically identifying the second target object that has opened the door lock and entered the second target area.

[0099] It is understandable that the preset target can be a person with pre-set access to open the door lock, or a person who is not a threat.

[0100] In some embodiments, the matching degree between a second target object and a preset target object within a second target area is determined based on a second target monitoring file, including the following implementation process.

[0101] Understandably, a target image containing a second target object can be determined based on the second target monitoring file.

[0102] It is understandable that video frames from the second target monitoring file can be filtered to obtain image frames containing people, and then the image frames containing people can be extracted to obtain the target image containing the second target object.

[0103] In this case, face recognition is then performed on the target image to determine the target face image.

[0104] In other words, face recognition is then performed on the target image to filter out target images containing face images and extract the target face images.

[0105] In this embodiment, the second target monitoring file is first identified and filtered to obtain target images containing people, and then face recognition is performed on the target images to determine the target face image. In this embodiment, the target face image can be directly used as the face image of the second target object.

[0106] In this case, the similarity between the target face image and the face image of the preset target object is then determined as the matching degree.

[0107] In this case, the facial image of the target object can be pre-entered so that the similarity between the target facial image and the pre-entered target object's facial image can be calculated by facial recognition algorithms.

[0108] For example, features can be extracted from the target face image and the face image of a preset target object, and the Euclidean or cosine distance of the features can be calculated. In this case, the calculated Euclidean or cosine distance can be directly used as the similarity, that is, the matching degree between the second target object and the preset target object.

[0109] In this embodiment, the identity of the second target can be accurately determined by recognizing facial images, thereby improving the security of monitoring.

[0110] In other embodiments, after determining the target image containing the second target object based on the second target monitoring file, the method further includes: if the target face image is not determined, determining the target outline of the second target object based on the target image.

[0111] In this case, since the second target object may obscure its own facial features, or if the target face image cannot be identified in the second target monitoring file, the target outline of the second target object is identified.

[0112] In this case, the similarity between the target contour and the contour of the preset target object can be determined as the matching degree.

[0113] In this case, the target contour of the second target object can be determined based on a target recognition algorithm. In some embodiments, specific calibration points in the target contour can be identified, and the distance ratio between each calibration point can be determined.

[0114] For example, the length of an arm or leg can be determined in relation to the height. Then, by comparing the outline of the target object with the outline of the preset target object in a unified monitoring scenario, the similarity between the target outline and the preset target object can be determined, thereby determining the matching degree between the second target object and the preset target object.

[0115] In this case, the inability to recognize facial images can be taken into account, which improves the compatibility of surveillance recognition and the high fault tolerance of the application, and helps to improve surveillance security.

[0116] If the matching degree is determined and is less than the first preset value, the door lock will be switched to the closed state.

[0117] It is understandable that the first preset value is a pre-set constant, and different first preset values ​​can be set for different matching degree calculation methods.

[0118] If the matching degree is less than the first preset value, the second target object can be determined to be an abnormal intruder. In this case, the second target monitoring file can be sent to the first target object, and the door lock can be closed.

[0119] Understandably, the door lock in this situation is a smart door lock, which can automatically lock itself when the door is closed.

[0120] In this situation, the intruder can be locked in the second target area so that relevant measures can be taken in a timely manner.

[0121] According to the monitoring method of the present invention, by calculating the matching degree between the second target object and the preset target object, and determining the identity of the second target object based on the magnitude of the matching degree, and taking corresponding measures, such as sending monitoring files, the security of monitoring can be effectively improved.

[0122] In some embodiments, after determining the matching degree between the second target object and the preset target object within the second target area based on the second target monitoring file, the monitoring method of the present invention further includes: when receiving the second target input information of the first target object within the second target time period, determining that the second target input information includes alarm information.

[0123] It is understandable that after receiving and reviewing the monitoring file of the second target, the first target object can input the second target's input information through a smart terminal.

[0124] The input methods for the second target input information include, but are not limited to, touch input, voice input, and physical button input.

[0125] For example, after the first target views the monitoring file of the second target on the phone's security application, a control can automatically pop up on the phone's screen to select whether it is safe.

[0126] Controls can include "safe controls" or "unsafe controls". After the first target object clicks the corresponding control, it can determine the input content of the second target input information.

[0127] After receiving a click operation from the first target object on the "unsafe control", it can be determined that the input information from the second target includes alarm information.

[0128] The second target input information is used to confirm that automatically identified abnormal intrusion behavior is unsafe.

[0129] In this case, an alarm message is sent to the networked alarm system and a second target monitoring file is stored.

[0130] Understandably, if the input information for the second target includes alarm information, the alarm information is sent to the networked alarm system and the monitoring file for the second target is stored.

[0131] To facilitate the recording and archiving of unsafe and abnormal intrusion behaviors, and to make monitoring and investigation easier, monitoring files of the second target can be stored when the input information of the second target includes alarm information.

[0132] It is understandable that the second target monitoring file can be stored locally or on a cloud server; there are no restrictions on the storage location of the second target monitoring file.

[0133] When the first target object needs to be monitored and replayed, the stored monitoring file of the second target can be retrieved directly, eliminating the need to manually search and retrieve monitoring files from a large number of cumbersome monitoring files, thus improving the efficiency of filtering and enhancing the user experience.

[0134] In this embodiment, if abnormal intrusion behavior is determined based on the matching degree calculation, the corresponding monitoring file can be sent to the user for security assessment. This makes it convenient for the user to issue an alarm and directly obtain the monitoring file, improving the efficiency of filtering monitoring files and enhancing the user experience.

[0135] In some embodiments, after determining the matching degree between the second target object and the preset target object within the second target area based on the second target monitoring file, the monitoring method of the present invention further includes: if no second target input information of the first target object is received within the second target time period, sending alarm information to the networked alarm system and storing the second target monitoring file.

[0136] It is understandable that the primary target may be too busy or unable to check the smart terminal in a timely manner, thus failing to promptly determine the automatically identified abnormal intrusion behavior.

[0137] In this situation, considering the security and urgency of abnormal intrusion behavior, an alarm message can be automatically sent to the networked alarm system and the target monitoring file can be stored if the first target object is not identified within a certain period of time.

[0138] In this embodiment, the actual situation of the user is fully considered, and the security of abnormal intrusion behavior is taken into account. It can automatically trigger alarms and store monitoring files, thereby improving the security under monitoring.

[0139] Reference Figure 2 The monitoring device provided by the present invention will be described below. The monitoring device described below can be referred to in correspondence with the monitoring method described above.

[0140] The monitoring device in this embodiment of the invention includes: a listening module 210, a first processing module 220, a second processing module 230, and a third processing module 240.

[0141] The monitoring module 210 is used to monitor the status information of the door lock, including the open status, closed status and unlocked status;

[0142] The first processing module 220 is used to send the first target monitoring file within the first target area to the first target object when the door lock switches from the closed state to the unlocked state and then switches back to the closed state for the Mth time during the first target time period; where M is an integer greater than 1.

[0143] The second processing module 230 is used to determine, when it receives the first target input information of the first target object within the second target time period, that the first target input information includes alarm information.

[0144] The third processing module 240 is used to send alarm information to the networked alarm system and store the first target monitoring file.

[0145] According to the monitoring device of the present invention, by real-time monitoring of the status information of the door lock, the abnormal status of the monitoring area can be automatically determined based on the status of the door lock and the corresponding monitoring file can be sent to the user for security judgment. This facilitates the user to issue an alarm and directly obtain the monitoring file, improves the efficiency of filtering monitoring files, and enhances the user experience.

[0146] In some embodiments, the monitoring device of the present invention further includes a fourth processing module, which is used to send alarm information to the networked alarm system and store the first target monitoring file when no first target input information of the first target object is received within the second target time period.

[0147] In some embodiments, the monitoring device of the present invention further includes a fifth processing module, which is used to acquire a second target monitoring file within a second target area within a third target time period when the door lock is detected switching from a closed state to an unlocked state and then back to an open state for the Nth time within a first target time period; wherein N is a positive integer; based on the second target monitoring file, determine the matching degree between the second target object within the second target area and a preset target object; if the matching degree is less than a first preset value, send the second target monitoring file to the first target object and switch the door lock to a closed state.

[0148] In some embodiments, the fifth processing module is further configured to, when receiving second target input information of the first target object within the second target time period, determine that the second target input information includes alarm information; send alarm information to the networked alarm system and store the second target monitoring file.

[0149] In some embodiments, the fifth processing module is further configured to send alarm information to the networked alarm system and store the second target monitoring file if no second target input information of the first target object is received within the second target time period.
