[0043] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a system architecture schematic diagram of a grass mowing system provided by the embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 1As shown, the mowing system 100 includes a terminal device 110 and a mowing robot 120, and the terminal device 110 is in communication connection with the mowing robot 120; specifically, the terminal device 110 can include an interactive module such as an electronic screen, and a user can view relevant information through the electronic screen and realize human-computer interaction operation by touching the electronic screen.

[0044] In the method, the terminal device 110 first acquires a mowing pattern, the mowing pattern including a plurality of sub-patterns; then the terminal device 110 acquires a first interval between any two adjacent sub-patterns in the mowing pattern and a mowing width of the mowing robot; the terminal device 110 determines a mowing mode according to a user selection, the mowing mode including an external mode, the external mode being a mode of mowing according to a pattern contour of a target mowing pattern; when the mowing mode is the external mode and the first interval is less than the mowing width, the terminal device 110 outputs a prompt information, the prompt information being used to prompt the user to select an adjustment manner of adjusting the first interval between target sub-patterns, the target sub-patterns being the sub-patterns in the plurality of sub-patterns and having the first interval less than the mowing width, the adjustment manner including automatic adjustment or adjustment based on user selection; the terminal device 110 acquires a selection instruction, the selection instruction being used to indicate a target adjustment manner of adjusting the first interval between the target sub-patterns; and the terminal device 110 adjusts the first interval between the target sub-patterns according to the target adjustment manner, and finally obtains a target mowing pattern.

[0045] The following will be described in combination with Figure 2 The adjustment method provided in the embodiment of the present application is described below, Figure 2 is a flowchart of the adjustment method for a lawn combined pattern provided in the embodiment of the present application, and the adjustment method is applied to the terminal device 110 in the mowing system 100 as shown. Figure 1 The adjustment method includes the following steps:

[0046] In step 210, a mowing pattern is acquired.

[0047] In the mowing pattern, a plurality of sub-patterns are included; specifically, the mowing pattern is a combined pattern composed of the plurality of sub-patterns, and the plurality of sub-patterns are independent of each other and do not have a connecting part between them.

[0048] In step 220, a first interval between any two adjacent sub-patterns in the mowing pattern and a mowing width of the mowing robot are acquired.

[0049] In the method, due to the hardware of the mowing robot, there is a fixed width when the mowing robot performs a mowing action, and if the width is greater than the interval between the sub-patterns, the mowing robot will perform a mowing action on a target mowing pattern area of the sub-patterns without control, the visual effect is damaged, and the pattern cannot be completely presented.

[0050] In the method, please refer to Figure 3 ,Figure 3 is a terminal interface reference schematic diagram provided by an embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 3 , the terminal display interface 300 includes a pattern display area 31 and an interactive function area 32, the pattern display area 31 displays sub-patterns such as "R", "J", and "C", the first interval refers to the shortest interval between the sub-patterns, as shown by the distance 311 and the distance 312 in Figure 3 , the dashed box of the area 313 is the area occupied by the sub-patterns, Figure 3 , the distance between the dashed boxes in the interactive function area 32 is the first interval; the interactive function area 32 exemplarily provides a setting function, which can set the distance and relative position of the sub-patterns, a toolbox function, which can modify and edit the pattern type of the sub-patterns, and an editing function, which can edit the pattern color, shape, size, and other effects of the sub-patterns; the functions displayed by the above interactive function area are only for reference.

[0051] Step 230, determining a mowing mode.

[0052] The mowing mode includes an external mode, which is a mode for mowing the pattern contour of the target mowing pattern.

[0053] Specifically, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 is an application schematic diagram of an external mowing pattern provided by an embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 4 , including a target mowing pattern area 41 and a non-pattern area 42; it should be understood that only one target mowing pattern area 41 is displayed here, and in actual application, there are multiple combined patterns composed of target mowing pattern areas 41; the non-pattern area 42 is only for example reference and does not have a limiting effect. Figure 4

[0054] When the mowing robot passes through the non-pattern area 42, the height of the mowing robot blade is adjusted to mow the lawn, thereby reducing the height of the lawn in the non-pattern area 42; at the same time, when the mowing robot passes through the target mowing pattern area 41, the mowing action is paused, so that the height of the lawn outside the target mowing pattern area is lower than the height of the lawn in the target mowing pattern area, thereby presenting an outward convex visual effect; specifically, the mowing mode further includes an internal mode, which is a mode for mowing the pattern part of the target mowing pattern, i.e. Figure 4 , to present an inward concave visual effect; when the terminal recognizes that the user selects the internal mode, since mowing is only performed in the internal part of the pattern, there is no influence on the adjacent pattern, so in the internal mode, the interval between the patterns does not need to be adjusted by the terminal, and the mowing robot can directly perform the mowing action.

[0055] ​Step 240, when the mowing mode is the external mode and the first interval is less than the mowing width, outputting prompt information.

[0056] The prompt information includes a prompt statement and an inquiry statement. The prompt statement is used to prompt the user to adjust the first interval between the target sub-patterns. The target sub-patterns are the sub-patterns in the plurality of sub-patterns, and the first interval of the target sub-patterns is less than the mowing width. The inquiry statement is used to inquire about the adjustment mode for adjusting the first interval between the target sub-patterns.

[0057] Specifically, the prompt statement can be, for example, “the current pattern interval does not meet the requirements”, and the inquiry statement can be, for example, “please select the adjustment mode”. The inquiry statement can include an inquiry prompt box, and the inquiry prompt box displays the inquiry statement. The inquiry prompt box also includes selection buttons of the adjustment mode, which provides the user to select the self-adjustment mode or the arbitrary adjustment mode.

[0058] Step 250, obtaining a selection instruction.

[0059] The selection instruction is used to indicate the target adjustment mode for adjusting the first interval between the target sub-patterns.

[0060] The adjustment mode includes automatic adjustment or user-selected adjustment. Adjusting the first interval between the target sub-patterns according to the target adjustment mode includes: if the target adjustment mode is automatic adjustment, adjusting the first interval between the target sub-patterns by the terminal device; or if the target adjustment mode is user-selected adjustment, adjusting the first interval between the target sub-patterns by the user.

[0061] Specifically, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 is another terminal interface reference schematic diagram provided by the embodiment of the present application, Figure 5 The inquiry prompt box 50 in the terminal interface 40 includes an inquiry statement 51 and selection buttons 52 and 53. The selection button 52 indicates that the user selects the automatic adjustment mode, and the selection button 53 indicates that the user selects the self-adjustment, i.e., the user-selected adjustment.

[0062] The automatic adjustment is to automatically adjust the first interval to meet the condition through the evaluation of the terminal device. The user-selected adjustment is to adjust the first interval by the user operating on the terminal through dragging the sub-pattern or setting the sub-pattern interval parameter.

[0063] Step 260, adjusting the first interval between the target sub-patterns according to the target adjustment mode to obtain a target mowing pattern.

[0064] In a possible embodiment, after obtaining the target mowing pattern, the method further includes: sending the target mowing pattern to the mowing robot to instruct the mowing robot to mow according to the target pattern.

[0065] The mowing robot performs a mowing action on the lawn according to the indication of the target mowing pattern after receiving the target mowing pattern.

[0066] It can be seen that, in this example, the mowing pattern is first obtained, then the first interval of any two adjacent sub-patterns in the mowing pattern and the mowing width of the mowing robot are obtained, the mowing pattern is determined, the mowing pattern includes an external mode, the external mode is a mode of mowing the pattern contour of the target mowing pattern, when the mowing pattern is the external mode and the first interval is less than the mowing width, a prompt information is output, the prompt information is used to prompt the user to select an adjustment mode of adjusting the first interval between the target sub-patterns, the target sub-patterns are the sub-patterns in the plurality of sub-patterns whose first interval is less than the mowing width, the adjustment mode includes automatic adjustment or adjustment based on user selection, then a selection instruction is obtained, the selection instruction is used to indicate the target adjustment mode of adjusting the first interval between the target sub-patterns, and finally the first interval between the target sub-patterns is adjusted according to the target adjustment mode to obtain the target mowing pattern. In this way, by judging the lawn pattern interval at the terminal, the probability that the pattern generated after mowing the lawn has defects is reduced, and the accuracy and reliability of generating the lawn pattern are improved.

[0067] In a possible embodiment, adjusting the first interval between the target sub-patterns according to the target adjustment mode includes: when the target adjustment mode is automatic adjustment, determining a second interval according to the mowing width, the second interval is greater than or equal to the mowing width; and expanding the first interval of the target sub-pattern to the second interval, the first interval between the target sub-patterns refers to the shortest interval between the patterns.

[0068] The second interval can be equal to the mowing width or greater than the mowing width, but the second interval should be greater than the mowing width within a reasonable range, and if the second interval is set to be greater than the entire lawn width, the target sub-pattern cannot be presented.

[0069] It can be seen that, in this example, by determining the second interval according to the mowing width and expanding the first interval of the target sub-pattern to the second interval, the terminal device automatically adjusts the interval between the target sub-patterns to meet the pattern completeness and accuracy, and the intelligence of the scheme is improved, and the accuracy of generating the lawn pattern is improved.

[0070] In a possible embodiment, expanding the first interval of the target sub-pattern to the second interval comprises: for each target sub-pattern, determining a setting direction of the current target sub-pattern relative to a neighboring sub-pattern, the neighboring sub-pattern being a target sub-pattern adjacent to the current target sub-pattern; and expanding the first interval between the target sub-pattern and the neighboring sub-pattern to the second interval according to the setting direction.

[0071] The first interval of the target sub-pattern is expanded to the second interval according to the relative position relationship between the target sub-patterns. For example, if the position of the target sub-pattern A relative to the target sub-pattern B is in the horizontal direction, the first interval is expanded to the second interval in the horizontal direction. Or if the position of the target sub-pattern A relative to the target sub-pattern B is in the upper right 45° direction, the first interval is expanded to the second interval in the upper right 45° direction.

[0072] It can be seen that, in this example, the first interval is expanded to the second interval according to the direction indicated by the relative position relationship, so that the generated pattern is not flawed after adjustment, and the accuracy of the generated lawn pattern is improved.

[0073] In a possible embodiment, the terminal device comprises a display screen. After the first interval of the target sub-pattern is expanded to the second interval, the method further comprises: determining whether the first interval of any two neighboring sub-patterns after adjustment is greater than or equal to the second interval; if yes, obtaining the target mowing pattern, and displaying the target mowing pattern on the display screen to prompt the user to confirm the target mowing pattern; and after recognizing the confirmation operation of the user, sending the target mowing pattern to the mowing robot.

[0074] After the interval of the target sub-pattern is adjusted, there may be a case that the interval of any two neighboring sub-patterns after adjustment is less than the mowing width. Therefore, after the interval of the target sub-pattern is adjusted, it is determined whether the interval of any neighboring sub-pattern in the mowing pattern is greater than or equal to the second interval. If yes, the target mowing pattern is determined, and subsequent operations are performed. If no, the above operation of automatically adjusting the first interval by the terminal is repeated until the interval of any neighboring sub-pattern in the mowing pattern is greater than or equal to the second interval.

[0075] The mowing pattern automatically adjusted by the terminal device needs to be confirmed by the user before being used as the target mowing pattern for generation. Since the pattern automatically adjusted by the terminal device may not meet the aesthetic or other needs of the user, the user is requested to confirm the mowing pattern after adjustment.

[0076] It can be seen that in this example, by confirming whether the first spacing of any two adjacent sub-patterns after adjustment is greater than or equal to the second spacing; if yes, the target mowing pattern is obtained, and the target mowing pattern is displayed on the display screen to prompt the user to confirm the target mowing pattern. After recognizing the user's confirmation operation, the target mowing pattern is sent to the mowing robot. In this way, the reliability of the scheme is improved, and the situation where the adjusted pattern still does not meet the generation condition is avoided. The pattern after terminal adjustment needs to be confirmed by the user before being generated, which is beneficial to realize the personalized setting of the user and optimize the user experience.

[0077] In one possible embodiment, adjusting the first spacing between the target sub-patterns according to the target adjustment mode comprises:

[0078] When the target adjustment mode is user selection-based adjustment, generating and displaying adjustment prompt information according to the mowing width, the adjustment prompt information being used to instruct the user to perform an adjustment operation on the target sub-patterns, the adjustment operation comprising dragging any pattern in the target sub-patterns;

[0079] In response to the adjustment operation, moving the selected pattern by the user and recording the first spacing in real time;

[0080] When the first spacing is greater than or equal to the mowing width, displaying confirmation information.

[0081] Wherein, please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 is a self-adjusting display interface provided by an embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 6 The adjustment prompt information can be real-time first spacing recording information displayed in the area 61. The user selects any pattern in the target sub-patterns on the terminal operation interface and performs an adjustment operation. Specifically, the adjustment operation can be a drag operation as shown in Figure 6 or the first spacing parameter can be input in the area 61, and then the terminal adjusts. When the user adjusts the first spacing to be greater than or equal to the mowing width, confirmation information is displayed. The confirmation information can be a pattern 62 as shown in Figure 6 , from a pattern without color filling to a pattern with color filling, to display the process from not meeting the standard to meeting the standard. In addition, the confirmation information can also include text information, voice information and other information with prompting effect, which is not limited here.

[0082] It can be seen that in this example, by generating and displaying the adjustment prompt information according to the mowing width, the pattern selected by the user is moved in response to the adjustment operation, and the first interval is recorded in real time. When the first interval is greater than or equal to the mowing width, the confirmation information is displayed. In this way, the accuracy of the user's self-adjustment of the mowing pattern is realized, and it is ensured that the user's adjusted mowing pattern meets the demand, thereby reducing the probability of being unable to generate the target mowing pattern, improving the efficiency of mowing and the ease of operation of generating the target pattern.

[0083] In one possible embodiment, after the adjustment prompt information is displayed, the method further includes:

[0084] identifying the mowing pattern after the adjustment operation, and determining whether the interval between any two adjacent sub-patterns in the mowing pattern after the adjustment operation is greater than or equal to the mowing width;

[0085] if yes, determining that the mowing pattern after the adjustment operation is the target mowing pattern;

[0086] if no, continuously displaying the adjustment prompt information at the display screen until the interval between any two adjacent sub-patterns in the mowing pattern after the adjustment operation is greater than or equal to the mowing width.

[0087] In this way, after the interval of the target sub-pattern is adjusted, there may be a case where the interval between any two adjacent sub-patterns after the adjustment is less than the mowing width. Therefore, after the interval of the target sub-pattern is adjusted, it is determined whether the interval between any two adjacent sub-patterns in the mowing pattern meets the requirement of being greater than or equal to the mowing width. If yes, the target mowing pattern is determined, and subsequent operations are performed. If no, the adjustment prompt information is continuously displayed to instruct the user to make adjustments until the display is stopped when the requirement is met.

[0088] It can be seen that in this example, by identifying the mowing pattern after the adjustment operation, it is determined whether the interval between any two adjacent sub-patterns in the mowing pattern after the adjustment operation is greater than or equal to the mowing width. If yes, the mowing pattern after the adjustment operation is determined to be the target mowing pattern. If no, the adjustment prompt information is continuously displayed at the display screen until the interval between any two adjacent sub-patterns in the mowing pattern after the adjustment operation is greater than or equal to the mowing width. In this way, the user is continuously prompted by the prompt information before the standard is met, which avoids the impact caused by adjusting the target sub-pattern, and improves the accuracy and reliability of the mowing pattern generation.
