Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of intelligent systems for exhibition halls and pavilions, and in particular to an exhibition hall control system, method, apparatus, electronic equipment, and computer program product. Background Technology
[0002] An exhibition hall refers to the process of creating content by organically integrating elements such as exhibits, exhibition themes, and visitors within a spatial environment.
[0003] In related technologies, exhibition halls mostly use fixed display boards to display relevant content. Therefore, when the exhibition space is limited, it is difficult to display a lot of content using fixed display boards, resulting in less content displayed in the exhibition hall. If fixed display boards are added to the exhibition hall, the exhibition space will be reduced, resulting in a narrow visitor route. Furthermore, when there are too many visitors, it will cause congestion, thereby affecting the visitor's efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0007] A third aspect of this disclosure provides an exhibition hall control device applied to the aforementioned exhibition hall control system. The exhibition hall control system includes an exhibition hall resource management unit and a control unit. The exhibition hall resource management unit includes an image acquisition subunit and a display subunit.

[0010] The above-mentioned at least one technical solution adopted in the embodiments of this disclosure can achieve the following beneficial effects: when a target display scheme is determined, the display subunit arranges each display area in the exhibition hall according to the target display scheme, wherein the target display scheme includes multiple sub-display schemes, and one display area corresponds to multiple sub-display schemes; when the image acquisition subunit obtains the image information corresponding to each display area, the image acquisition subunit sends the image information to the control unit, the control unit determines the target display area currently visited by the target visitor and the corresponding number of visits from each display area according to the image information, and determines the target sub-display scheme from the multiple sub-display schemes corresponding to the target display area according to the number of visits; when the control unit determines that the target visitor has left the target display area according to the image information, it generates a display scheme change instruction according to the target sub-display scheme and sends the display scheme change instruction to the display subunit, and the display subunit changes the sub-display scheme currently used in the target display area to the target sub-display scheme according to the display scheme change instruction.
[0011] As can be seen, the embodiments of this disclosure can divide the target display scheme into multiple sub-display schemes and allocate these sub-display schemes to various display areas. This allows for the display of more content using fewer display areas. Furthermore, the visitor's visit can be monitored using image acquisition devices. After a visitor leaves the target display area, the control center can determine the target sub-display scheme to be used for the next visit based on the number of times the visitor has viewed the target display area. The display content in the target display area is then updated according to the target sub-display scheme. Based on this, each display area can continuously change its display content, thereby allowing more content to be displayed within a limited space. Simultaneously, the visitor's visit can be monitored, and the display content is only updated after a visitor leaves the target display area, avoiding any impact on the visitor's experience during the content switching process and ensuring visitor efficiency.

[0023] It should be noted that the terms "a" and "a plurality of" used in this disclosure are illustrative rather than restrictive, and those skilled in the art should understand that, unless otherwise expressly indicated in the context, they should be understood as "one or more".
[0024] The names of messages or information exchanged between multiple devices in the embodiments of this disclosure are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of such messages or information.
[0025] An exhibition hall refers to the process of creating content by organically integrating exhibits, exhibition themes, and visitors within a spatial environment. With the development of the times, exhibition hall design has gradually expanded to include fields such as culture, technology, commerce, and sports, and has rapidly developed in areas such as three-dimensionality, interactivity, and technology. Specifically, relevant content can be displayed and introduced through exhibitions. For example, cultural center exhibition halls bear the important responsibility of protecting and inheriting cultural heritage. Various forms of cultural relics, artworks, and historical documents can be displayed in cultural center exhibition halls, allowing visitors to understand and appreciate precious cultural heritage up close. Through exhibitions and explanations, cultural knowledge can be conveyed to the public, guiding visitors to value and protect cultural heritage. Corporate exhibition halls can showcase the company's development history, allowing visitors to gain a deeper understanding of the company.
[0026] Most existing exhibition halls use fixed display panels to showcase relevant content. The size and content of these fixed panels are fixed and cannot be changed at will. Therefore, when the exhibition hall area is small but there is a lot of content to be displayed, it is impossible to display all the content completely. Alternatively, a large number of fixed display panels can be set up in the exhibition hall to display more content, but this will make the passageways for visitors too narrow, causing congestion when multiple visitors are visiting, resulting in a slow visiting process.
[0027] In existing technologies, multimedia display boards can be installed in the exhibition hall, and a corresponding control system can be used to switch the content displayed on the multimedia display boards, thus allowing more content to be displayed in a smaller exhibition hall. However, this method can only be implemented when the control system instructs the multimedia display boards to change the displayed content after detecting that a visitor has arrived at the designated area. This requires visitors to wait in front of the multimedia display boards for the content to be changed, thereby increasing the visitor's visit time.
[0028] Therefore, to address the aforementioned problems, this disclosure provides an exhibition hall control system, method, apparatus, electronic device, and computer program product, specifically including a control unit and an exhibition hall resource management unit. The exhibition hall resource management unit includes an image acquisition subunit, a guidance subunit, and a prompting subunit. Based on this, when visitors tour the exhibition hall, the image acquisition subunit can acquire image information within the display area. The number of times a visitor has toured the display area can be determined using image information from different times. The control unit can then adjust the display scheme corresponding to the display area in a timely manner based on the number of visits.
[0029] At the same time, the guidance sub-unit can guide visitors through the exhibition hall. When a visitor stays in a certain exhibition area for too long, or when the time a target visitor spends in the target exhibition area exceeds a preset threshold, the prompt sub-unit can prompt the target visitor to leave the target exhibition area, that is, prompt the target visitor to go to the next exhibition area as soon as possible. In this way, more content can be displayed in a smaller exhibition hall, and multiple visitors can be visited in an orderly manner in the exhibition hall.
[0030] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of an exhibition hall control system provided in an embodiment of this disclosure is shown. Figure 1 As shown, the exhibition hall resource management unit 102 of this embodiment includes an image acquisition subunit 1021, a display subunit 1022, a guidance subunit 1023, and a prompting subunit 1024. The image acquisition subunit 1021 can collect image information of the target display area at different times, and then determine the number of times a visitor visits the target display area based on the multiple image information corresponding to different times. The image acquisition subunit 1021 may include multiple image acquisition devices, specifically high-speed cameras, color cameras, and black-and-white cameras, etc., which can be used to acquire image information of the display area. Furthermore, multiple image acquisition devices can be set up in various locations in the exhibition hall, with different angles, thereby enabling image acquisition of various areas of the exhibition hall. The control unit 101 then analyzes the images acquired by the image acquisition subunit 1021. It should be understood that each display area has a corresponding image acquisition subunit 1021, guidance subunit 1023, and prompting subunit 1024, thereby enabling more accurate analysis and prompting of visitors in each display area.
[0031] Specifically, an exhibition area may include one or more image acquisition devices. These devices can acquire image information corresponding to the exhibition area and then send this image information to the control unit 101. The control unit 101 can determine whether a visitor is currently in the exhibition area based on the image information. When a visitor is in the exhibition area, the control unit 101 can identify facial information in the image information and match the identification result with the facial information stored in the storage subunit 1014. When it is determined that the visitor's facial information matches the facial information stored in the storage subunit 1014... When no matching relationship exists, the facial information in the storage subunit 1014 can be updated based on the visitor's facial information, and the visitor can be marked as a first-time visitor. When it is determined that the visitor's facial information matches the facial information already stored in the storage subunit 1014, the visitor's facial information in the storage subunit 1014 can be marked based on the number of times the visitor has been identified. For example, when the visitor's facial information is identified for the fourth time, the visitor's facial information in the storage subunit 1014 can be marked as having appeared four times. Simultaneously, the visitor's identity can be directly determined based on the identification result. It should be understood that the control unit 101 of this embodiment also includes a storage subunit 1014, which can be used to store facial information and identity information of various personnel, such as staff and visitors. Specific settings can be configured according to actual applications. Facial information should correspond one-to-one with identity information, and the data content stored in the storage subunit 1014 can be maintained by data management.
[0032] The aforementioned guidance subunit 1023 is mainly used to guide visitors to tour the exhibition hall according to the preset tour route. The preset tour route can be a route pre-set in the exhibition hall for visitors to move around in. The prompt subunit 1024 is mainly used to remind visitors when they stay in a certain exhibition area for too long, or to remind visitors to speed up their tour when their tour speed is slow.
[0033] In practical applications, the guidance subunit 1023 can receive control commands from the control center, thereby providing visitors with prompts and guidance on the tour route. Specifically, this can be achieved through voice prompts, the installation of light signs or directional signs, or the placement of flowing light strips along walkable routes to guide visitors. Based on this, visitors can be guided through the exhibition hall, improving their tour efficiency.
[0034] Based on this, when setting the actual exhibition area of the exhibition hall, the exhibition scheme corresponding to the preset exhibition content can be broken down. According to the corresponding exhibition area of each exhibition area, the exhibition scheme can be divided into multiple different sub-exhibition schemes in the exhibition order. Then, the guidance sub-unit 1023 guides visitors to visit different exhibition areas in the exhibition hall in the exhibition order. At the same time, the image acquisition sub-unit 1021 can acquire the visitor's visit progress in real time. The visit progress can be the number of times the visitor visits different exhibition areas. Then, the control unit 101 can change the exhibition content of the exhibition area according to the pre-designed exhibition scheme order according to the visit progress. During the visit, the guidance sub-unit 1023 and the prompting sub-unit 1024 work together to guide the visitor to visit different exhibition areas in the exhibition order, so as to display rich content for visitors in a limited space and enable visitors to have a more comprehensive understanding of the exhibition content.
[0035] In some embodiments, the exhibition hall design of this disclosure can be a circular or rectangular frame-shaped reciprocating route. Multiple display areas can be set in the reciprocating route, and the reciprocating route can pass through the display areas. Different display areas continuously update the display content according to a pre-designed display scheme, so that visitors can continuously view the content displayed in different display areas along the reciprocating route. This allows more content to be displayed in a smaller space, thereby ensuring rich content while reducing costs.
[0036] In practical applications, the exhibition hall resource management unit 102 of this embodiment further includes a display subunit 1022, which may include a movable obscuring subunit, a movable display subunit, a multimedia display subunit, an access control subunit, and a lighting subunit. The movable obscuring subunit is mainly used to obscure the target display area, or to obscure a specific display board or platform within the display area, during the process of changing the currently used sub-display scheme of the target display area to the target sub-display scheme according to the display scheme change instruction. Specifically, it can be an electric curtain or an electric barrier. The movable display subunit is mainly used to display physical display content in the target display area when the target sub-display scheme includes physical display content. Specifically, it can be an electric display board or an electric display stand. The multimedia display subunit is mainly used to display multimedia display content in the target display area when the target sub-display scheme includes multimedia display content. Specifically, it can be a projector or a movable multimedia display board. The access control subunit is mainly used to restrict the activity range of visitors in the exhibition hall. Specifically, it can be various forms of electric doors. The lighting subunit can add atmosphere to the display area. Specifically, it can be light bulbs of various colors.
[0037] Specifically, the control unit 101 can establish a communication connection with the exhibition hall resource management unit 102 to realize data interaction. The specific connection can be a wireless network or a wired network connection. The wireless network can be a 5G mobile communication network. When the deployment of the exhibition scheme is relatively fixed, either a wired network or a 5G mobile communication network can be used. In order to adapt to the needs of unstable exhibitions such as temporary exhibitions or the need for constant changes in the exhibition content in the exhibition scheme, a 5G mobile communication network can be used for data transmission.
[0038] The aforementioned movable obscuring subunit and movable display subunit are equipped with mechanical structures such as slide rails and motors capable of executing control commands, which are issued by the control unit 101. Based on this, the control unit 101 can send control commands to the movable obscuring subunit or the movable display subunit, thereby enabling flexible control of these subunits and allowing for more diverse display formats, thus enhancing the viewing experience for visitors. Simultaneously, the control unit 101 can also control the access control subunit.
[0039] Specifically, electric gates can be installed in each exhibition area. When the electric gates in an area are closed, visitors cannot enter that area. When the electric gates are open, visitors can enter the area. Furthermore, multiple exhibition areas are interconnected, meaning that one can move from one area to the next. Based on this, access control sub-units can make the tour routes more diverse, thereby enhancing the visitor experience.
[0040] In some embodiments of this disclosure, a display scheme can be designed for preset display content. At the same time, a display scheme can be divided into multiple sub-display schemes according to the display order based on the number of display areas in the current exhibition hall. Then, the multiple sub-display schemes are assigned to multiple display areas according to the display order. Based on this, visitors can visit the preset display content through multiple display areas.
[0041] Specifically, when the exhibition hall has only two display areas, the first display scheme is arranged in the first display area for visitors, the second display scheme is arranged in the second display area for visitors, the third display scheme is arranged in the first display area for visitors, and so on, until the last display scheme is arranged. Meanwhile, each sub-display scheme includes multiple display contents, which may include display content corresponding to fixed display boards, display content corresponding to multimedia display boards, etc. Based on this, the embodiments of this disclosure can design multiple sub-display schemes according to the number of display areas and preset display content, and then display them in multiple display areas according to the display order of the sub-display schemes, thereby displaying more display content in a smaller display area.
[0042] In a presentation scheme, the overall presentation content can consist of the presentation content corresponding to m*n sub-presentation schemes in m cycles, where m is the cycle number and R is the number of sub-presentation schemes. m Let R represent the m-th cycle, n be the number of sub-show options in each cycle, and R be the number of sub-show options. m~n This represents the nth sub-display scheme in the mth iteration, for example, R 2~3 For the third sub-display scheme in the second loop; R 1~2 This is the second sub-display scheme in the first cycle. Here, n ≥ 2, and its value is limited by the size of the physical display space and the amount of content displayed in each sub-display scheme. Preferably, n ≥ 3 yields better results. m is generally greater than or equal to 1, and its value is not limited. Preferably, m = 2 / 3 / 4 yields better results. It should be understood that one display area can correspond to multiple sub-display schemes, but one sub-display scheme can only be arranged in one display area.
[0043] In practical applications, the preset display content can be customized display content. This embodiment further categorizes the customized display content into dimensions. For example, the first dimension can be the source of the display content, such as a national-level platform, a provincial / ministerial-level / group-level platform, a municipal / secondary-level unit platform, or a science popularization platform; the second dimension can be the professionalism of the display content, such as professional-level, general-level, or science popularization-level content; the third dimension can be the category of the display content, such as patent operation-related knowledge, patent cultivation-related knowledge, technology transfer-related knowledge, or legal and political research-related knowledge; the fourth dimension can be the style required for the display content, such as lighting style—a dark red light for literary content, a blue light for marine culture; and the fifth dimension can be the display speed required for the display content—a slower display speed for highly specialized content, and a faster display speed for well-known content. Based on this, relevant management personnel can use the control unit 101 to set the preset display content in conjunction with the above dimensions and determine whether it includes R. m~n The display scheme is then presented, and the display sub-unit 1022 controls the relevant units to display corresponding content according to the instructions of the control unit 101.
[0044] In an optional embodiment, this disclosure can also design explanatory texts for each sub-display scheme based on its corresponding display content and display speed. These explanatory texts can help visitors understand the content of each sub-display scheme. Furthermore, when the guide explains the content to the visitors based on the explanatory texts, a question-and-answer session can be added, thereby increasing the visitor's interactive experience and providing timely explanations when visitors have questions, leading to a deeper understanding of the sub-display schemes. Simultaneously, before visitors enter the exhibition hall, the exhibition hall resource management unit 102 will complete R1 according to the instructions of the control unit 101, that is, arrange the display content corresponding to the multiple sub-display schemes in the first cycle. 2~1 The content displayed thereafter will be presented in a timely manner through automated transformation.
[0045] In some embodiments, the control unit 101 of this disclosure may further include an image recognition subunit 1021, an image analysis subunit 1022, and an image classification subunit 1023. Based on this, when image information is acquired from the image acquisition subunit 1021, the image recognition subunit 1021 first identifies facial information in the image information and matches the recognition result with existing facial information in the storage subunit 1014. Based on this, the visitor's identity can be determined. The visitor's identity may include staff members, first-time visitors, second-time visitors, and target visitors. The target visitor can be the most important person in a visiting group. That is, before the visiting group enters the exhibition hall, the group leader can be consulted to determine the ranks of multiple visitors in the group, and the most important visitor can be identified as the target visitor. Then, when the visiting group enters the exhibition hall, the control unit 101 can control multiple image acquisition devices in the exhibition hall to focus on the target visitor, thereby achieving real-time follow-up photography. It should be understood that after identifying the target visitor, the facial image of the target visitor can be obtained, and the facial information can be recognized by the image recognition subunit 1021. The recognized facial information is then stored in the storage subunit 1014 to facilitate the subsequent identification of the visitor's identity.
[0046] In practical applications, the importance of visitors can be determined by considering factors such as their job title and age, and the specific criteria can be set according to the actual situation. For example, when considering job title to determine the importance of visitors, the highest-ranking visitor in the group can be designated as the target visitor; when considering age to determine the importance of visitors, the oldest visitor in the group can be designated as the target visitor.
[0047] After acquiring image information through the image acquisition device, the image recognition subunit 1021 in the control unit 101 can detect whether facial information exists in the image information. If facial information is present, a facial matrix is constructed using the facial information, and a similarity algorithm is used to match the facial matrix with multiple facial information entries in the storage subunit 1014. If the match is successful, the visitor's identity can be determined based on the matching result. If the match fails, the visitor corresponding to the facial information is marked as a first-time visitor, and the failed facial information and the visitor's corresponding start and end times are transmitted to the storage subunit 1014. It should be understood that the facial information already stored in the storage subunit 1014 can be deleted when the visitor leaves the exhibition hall, i.e., when the image acquisition device determines that the visitor has left the exhibition hall. Alternatively, a preset time period can be set, i.e., if no facial information of the visitor is acquired in the exhibition hall within the preset time period, the facial information corresponding to the visitor will be automatically deleted. Furthermore, the information can be maintained by relevant technical personnel. Meanwhile, the facial information of the staff should be stored in the storage sub-unit 1014 in advance, so as to accurately identify the visitors and reduce storage costs.
[0048] In some embodiments, the image classification subunit 1023 can be used to classify multiple visitors. For example, the age of a visitor can be determined by the facial information obtained by the image recognition subunit 1021, and then the multiple visitors can be divided into a youth group and an adult group according to their age, and the number of visitors in the youth group and the adult group can be counted.
[0049] In some embodiments, the image analysis subunit 1022 can analyze the classification results obtained by the image classification subunit 1023 and the image recognition results obtained by the image recognition subunit 1021 to determine the display scheme. The classification results can be the number of visitors in the youth group and the adult group, and the image recognition results can be the identity of the visitors.
[0050] In practical applications, display schemes can be designed for the preset display content from multiple perspectives. Then, based on the classification results and image recognition results, the best display scheme can be determined from multiple display schemes and presented to visitors.
[0051] Specifically, the exhibition design can be tailored to the preferences of visitors of different identities or age groups, thus providing the best exhibition solution based on the actual identity and age of the visitors and ensuring a positive visitor experience.
[0052] When the target visitor is identified, the image analysis subunit 1022 analyzes the target visitor's image information. It analyzes the target visitor's preferences using parameters such as dwell time and number of conversations in various exhibition areas, and transmits the preference analysis results to the exhibition hall administrator's email address while simultaneously saving them to the storage subunit 1014. It should be understood that the storage subunit 1014 can also permanently store the corresponding facial information and preference analysis results of past visitors, as well as publicly available information on relevant industry personnel.
[0053] In some embodiments, in a loopable exhibition hall, visitors can proceed along a preset route according to the display order of the sub-display schemes, guided by the guidance subunit 1023. The guidance subunit 1023, image recognition subunit 1021, and prompting subunit 1024 cooperate to guide, urge, and prompt visitors at appropriate times, enabling them to cyclically advance along the route. Simultaneously, the display subunit 1022 automatically changes the content of the sub-display schemes that have already been visited. When visitors return to the same location via the looping route, the displayed content is different from before, thus overcoming the limitations of physical space and providing visitors with richer content. The technical solutions involved in achieving this seamless automatic change are as follows:
[0054] Suppose that the presentation scheme can be sequentially divided into the first sub-presentation scheme R of the first cycle. 1~1 The second sub-display scheme R in the first loop 1~2 The first sub-display scheme R in the second cycle 2~1 And the second sub-display scheme R in the second cycle 2~2 This means that all the content corresponding to the exhibition plan can be displayed in the exhibition hall through two cycles. Based on this, before the visitors enter the exhibition hall, corresponding to the first cycle R1, the first exhibition area should display R. 1~1 The corresponding display content, and the second display area should display R. 1~2 The corresponding display content.
[0055] In practical applications, when multiple visitors enter the exhibition hall, they first need to visit the first display area. After all visitors have finished visiting the first display area and are moving on to the second display area, the control unit 101 will determine whether all visitors in the first display area have left based on the image information captured by the image acquisition device. Once it is confirmed that all visitors have left the first display area, i.e., that there are no visitors in the first display area, the first sub-display scheme R of the first cycle will be updated. 1~1 Change to the first sub-display scheme R in the second loop 2~1Based on this, when all visitors have left the first exhibition area and arrived at the second exhibition area, R 1~1 The exhibition plan in the exhibition area will be changed to R through the exhibition hall resource management unit 102. 2~1 Furthermore, since there are no visitors in the first display area during the transformation of the sub-display scheme, the switching of the sub-display scheme can be completed without the visitors' awareness, and will not take up any additional waiting time. Of course, the start time of the sub-display scheme transformation can be adjusted according to the actual situation, but the transformation of the display content must be completed during the off-peak period when no one is visiting the sub-display scheme, so as to achieve seamless expansion of the display content.
[0056] In some embodiments, the guidance subunit 1023 of this disclosure can guide the movement and speed of visitors in an orderly manner through various means such as controlling lights or emitting sounds, when multiple visitors are touring the exhibition hall according to a preset route. For example, a flowing light strip can be arranged along the preset route, with the lights on the drivable routes turned on and the routes without lights being prohibited. Based on this, visitors can only move around the exhibition hall through the illuminated routes, thereby achieving the purpose of guiding visitors. It should be understood that in practical applications, common technologies such as voice prompts and LED light displays can also be used to provide guidance to visitors. Furthermore, the guidance subunit 1023 can also take the form of a mobile intelligent robot, integrating the required functions of the guidance subunit 1023 onto the robot, thereby increasing the visitor's interest and ensuring a better guiding effect.
[0057] In practical applications, even when multiple visitors are guided by the guidance subunit 1023, some visitors may still lag behind the overall group for various reasons, remaining in the exhibition area where the tour has already concluded. This prevents the sub-exhibition plan from being seamlessly changed. In this case, the exhibition hall resource management unit 102 can intelligently identify the lingering visitors through the image recognition unit. These lingering visitors can be those whose visit time in the target exhibition area exceeds a preset threshold, and the unit will issue a reminder urging them to catch up with the overall group and leave the currently lingering sub-exhibition plan. The specific technical solution is as follows:
[0058] Option 1: The display time period of each sub-display scheme can be determined based on the display speed and duration of each sub-display scheme. Based on this, the sub-display scheme that the visitor is currently visiting can be determined based on the time the visitor spends in the exhibition hall.
[0059] In practical applications, assuming a visitor enters the first exhibition area at 12:00 and the current exhibition time in the first exhibition area is 30 minutes, the visitor needs to leave the first exhibition area at 12:30. Based on this, a time threshold for visitors to leave the exhibition area can be set. Assuming the time threshold is 20 minutes, at 12:50, the image acquisition device in the first exhibition area can acquire the current image information of the first exhibition area. The image recognition subunit 1021 can analyze the image information to determine whether there are still people remaining in the first exhibition area. If the image recognition subunit 1021 determines that there are still visitors remaining in the first exhibition area, the control unit 101 controls the prompting subunit 1024 deployed in the first exhibition area to issue an audio-visual reminder to the remaining people, urging them to go to the second exhibition area as soon as possible.
[0060] Option 2: Since many unexpected situations may occur during the actual demonstration, the guide's facial information can be stored in the storage subunit 1014 before the demonstration begins. This allows for real-time tracking of the guide's location using image acquisition devices deployed in each demonstration area. Based on this, the current demonstration area can be used as the guide's current area during the demonstration. Furthermore, a waiting time threshold can be set when the guide changes demonstration areas. When the waiting time threshold is reached, the image acquisition subunit 1021 of the previous demonstration area acquires the image information of that area and determines whether there are still visitors remaining. If the image recognition subunit 1021 determines that visitors are still remaining in the demonstration area, the control unit 101 controls the prompting subunit 1024 deployed in that area to issue an audio-visual reminder, urging the visitors to proceed to the next area as soon as possible.
[0061] After the aforementioned prompting subunit 1024 issues a reminder y seconds later, it re-determines whether there are still people lingering in the area. If they are, the control unit 101 controls the multimedia display subunit 1022 in the display area 1022 to display the reminder information, and controls the lighting subunit to gradually decrease the brightness of the lights in the display area or flash the lights to give a stronger reminder to the lingering people, urging them to leave the display area. When it is determined that there are no lingering people in the display area, the control unit 101 will control the display area to change the content according to the aforementioned display content change rules.
[0062] In some embodiments of this disclosure, when the content displayed in the display area is changed, there are no visitors in the display area. Therefore, the display scheme can be changed seamlessly through the display subunit 1022. Specifically, the control unit 101 can also control the multimedia display subunit 1022 to display different pictures or videos according to the display scheme, and the control unit 101 can also control the lighting subunit to present more varied display effects by changing the color, angle, and color temperature of the lights.
[0063] In some embodiments, the control unit 101 can also change the sub-display scheme when a visitor is within the display area. During the change, the visitor can move freely within the display area and intuitively experience the change in the sub-display scheme, thus providing a visually stunning experience. It should be understood that since the sub-display scheme needs to be changed while the visitor is within the display area, there is no longer a prompt to clear lingering visitors in this scenario.
[0064] In some embodiments, the image recognition subunits 1021 deployed throughout the exhibition hall can also automatically capture group photos of visitors. After the visitors have completed their tour, they can browse, download, and print the required group photos at the exit of the exhibition area, thereby saving manpower and time for dedicated personnel to take group photos.
[0065] In some embodiments, when the exhibition hall resource management unit 102 includes an AI explanation unit, the unit can use holographic projection to replace human guides in explaining the exhibits and automatically introduce certain exhibits from different sub-exhibition schemes, thereby saving human resources and achieving a fully automated visitor experience without human intervention.
[0066] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the display scheme may include a first sub-display scheme R in the first loop. 1~1 The second sub-display scheme R in the first loop 1~2 The first sub-display scheme R in the second cycle 2~1 And the second sub-display scheme R in the second cycle 2~2 The current exhibition hall includes a first exhibition area and a second exhibition area. Based on this, the exhibition hall resource management unit 102 can pre-set the first sub-exhibition scheme R of the first cycle according to the control instructions issued by the control unit 101. 1~1 Displayed in the first display area, the second sub-display scheme R in the first loop will be displayed. 1~2 The first sub-display scheme R is displayed in the second display area. Based on this, when visitors complete their visit to the first display area and proceed to the second display area, the first display area will automatically present the second cycle of the first sub-display scheme R through the movable obscuring sub-unit, multimedia display sub-unit 1022, and lighting unit.2~1 The corresponding display content. At this time, in order to avoid the first display area from interfering with the visitor's line of sight when the sub-display scheme is changed, the moving blocking sub-unit can block the first display area. At this time, it can be assumed that only the second display area exists in the current exhibition hall, thereby helping visitors focus on the second viewing area.
[0067] In practical applications, after visitors complete their tour of the second exhibition area, they will follow the prompts from the prompting sub-unit 1024 to retrace their steps along the pre-set circular tour route back to the first exhibition area. However, at this point, the sub-exhibition schemes in the first exhibition area have been switched to the first sub-exhibition scheme R of the second loop through the cooperation of the exhibition hall resource management unit 102 and related units. 2~1 In this cycle, whenever a visitor completes their tour of the nth sub-exhibition and proceeds to the (n+1)th sub-exhibition, the content displayed in the area where the nth sub-exhibition is located will automatically switch to the (n+2)th sub-exhibition through the display sub-unit. Since the preset tour route is set to be circular, visitors can continuously circle around the area to view more exhibits within a limited space, thus achieving the effect of a folded exhibition hall.
[0068] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of another exhibition hall control system provided in an embodiment of this disclosure is shown. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the exhibition hall control system of this disclosure includes:
[0069] The exhibition hall resource management unit 202 includes an image acquisition subunit 2021 and a display subunit 2022. The image acquisition subunit 2021 is used to acquire image information corresponding to each display area in the exhibition hall. The display subunit 2022 is used to arrange each display area according to the target display scheme. The target display scheme includes multiple sub-display schemes, and one display area corresponds to multiple sub-display schemes.
[0070] Control unit 201 is used to determine the target display area currently visited by the target visitor and the corresponding number of visits from each display area based on image information, and to determine the target sub-display scheme from multiple sub-display schemes corresponding to the target display area based on the number of visits;
[0071] The control unit 201 is also used to monitor the target visitors based on the image information corresponding to the target display area, and generate a display scheme change instruction based on the target sub-display scheme when the target visitors are detected leaving the target display area.
[0072] The display sub-unit 2022 is also used to change the sub-display scheme currently used in the target display area to the target sub-display scheme according to the display scheme change instruction.
[0073] In some practical applications, each exhibition area in the exhibition hall has a corresponding image acquisition subunit 2021 and display subunit 2022. The control unit 201 can acquire the image information acquired by the image acquisition subunit 2021 in each exhibition area and recognize the facial information in the image information. This allows the control unit to determine the number of times the target visitor appears in different exhibition areas, i.e., the number of times the target visitor visits different exhibition areas. It can also determine the target exhibition area that the target visitor is currently visiting. Based on this, the control unit 201 can determine the target sub-display scheme to be used next for the target exhibition area based on the number of times the target visitor visits the target exhibition area. Then, the control unit 201 can monitor the target visitor through the image information in the target area. When the control unit 201 detects that the target visitor has left the target exhibition area, i.e., when the facial information of the target visitor is no longer in the image information, it generates a display scheme change instruction based on the target sub-display scheme and sends the display scheme change instruction to the display subunit 2022. The display subunit 2022 then changes the sub-display scheme currently used in the target exhibition area to the target sub-display scheme according to the display scheme change instruction.
[0074] As can be seen, the embodiments of this disclosure can divide the target display scheme into multiple sub-display schemes and allocate these sub-display schemes to various display areas. This allows for the display of more content using fewer display areas. Furthermore, the visitor's visit can be monitored using image acquisition devices. After a visitor leaves the target display area, the control center can determine the target sub-display scheme to be used for the next visit based on the number of times the visitor has viewed the target display area. The display content in the target display area is then updated according to the target sub-display scheme. Based on this, each display area can continuously change its display content, thereby allowing more content to be displayed within a limited space. Simultaneously, the visitor's visit can be monitored, and the display content is only updated after a visitor leaves the target display area, avoiding any impact on the visitor's experience during the content switching process and ensuring visitor efficiency.
[0075] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the interior structure of an exhibition hall provided in an embodiment of this disclosure is shown. For example... Figure 3As shown, the exhibition hall in this embodiment can be an elliptical structure, including a first display area 301 and a second display area 302. After entering the display area, visitors can tour the exhibition hall along a preset tour path 303. Therefore, when it is determined that preset display content needs to be displayed in the exhibition hall, the size of the preset display content must first be compared with the size of the content that the exhibition hall can display. If the size of the content that the exhibition hall can display is smaller than the size of the preset display content, a loop playback method can be used to ensure that the exhibition hall can display all the preset display content.
[0076] In some embodiments, when splitting the preset display content, it is first necessary to determine the display scheme corresponding to the preset display content, and then split the display scheme according to the area that can be displayed in each display area. For example, the preset display scheme requires 50m² to be fully displayed. 2 The exhibition area is [not specified], but the total area that can be displayed in the two exhibition areas currently included in the exhibition hall is only 25 square meters. 2 Based on this, the exhibition plan can be divided into four sub-exhibition plans and displayed in the exhibition hall, so that visitors can visit the pre-set exhibition content through a loop.
[0077] Specifically, assume the presentation scheme includes the first sub-presentation scheme R in the first loop. 1~1 The second sub-display scheme R in the first loop 1~2 The first sub-display scheme R in the second cycle 2~1 And the second sub-display scheme R in the second cycle 2~2 This means that all the content corresponding to the exhibition plan can be displayed in the exhibition hall through two cycles. Based on this, before the target visitor enters the exhibition hall, corresponding to the first cycle R1, the first display area should display R. 1~1 The corresponding display content, and the second display area should display R. 1~2 The corresponding display content.
[0078] In practical applications, when a target visitor enters the exhibition hall, they first need to visit the first display area. After visiting the first display area, the target visitor moves to the second display area. The control unit determines whether the target visitor has left the first display area based on the image information captured by the image acquisition device. If it is confirmed that the target visitor has left the first display area, that is, if it is confirmed that there is no target visitor in the first display area, the first sub-display scheme R of the first cycle is activated. 1~1 Change to the first sub-display scheme R in the second loop 2~1 Based on this, when the target visitor leaves the first exhibition area and arrives at the second exhibition area, R 1~1 The exhibition plan in the exhibition area will be changed to R through the exhibition hall resource management unit.2~1 Meanwhile, since there are no target visitors in the first display area during the transformation of the sub-display scheme, the switching of the sub-display scheme can be completed without the visitors' awareness, and will not take up any additional waiting time. Of course, the time when the sub-display scheme starts to change can be adjusted according to the actual situation, but the change of the display content must be completed during the gap period when no one is visiting the sub-display scheme, so as to achieve seamless expansion of the display content.
[0079] In some embodiments, the exhibition hall resource management unit further includes a guidance subunit, which is used to guide target visitors to the target exhibition area after the sub-display scheme currently used in the target exhibition area is changed to the target sub-display scheme according to the display scheme change instruction.
[0080] Specifically, in this embodiment, the guidance subunit can guide visitors' routes and speeds by controlling lights or emitting sounds, among other methods, when multiple visitors are orderly touring the exhibition hall according to a preset route. For example, a flowing light strip can be arranged along the preset route, with the lights on the drivable routes turned on and the unlit routes designated as prohibited. Based on this, visitors can only move through the exhibition hall along the lit routes, thus achieving the purpose of guiding their movement. It should be understood that in practical applications, common technologies such as voice prompts and LED signage can also be used to provide guidance to visitors. Furthermore, the guidance subunit can also take the form of a mobile intelligent robot, integrating the necessary functions into the robot to increase visitor engagement and ensure a better guiding effect.
[0081] In some embodiments, the display subunit further includes a movable occlusion subunit, a movable display subunit, and a multimedia display subunit; wherein, the movable occlusion subunit is used to occlude the target display area during the process of changing the sub-display scheme currently used in the target display area to the target sub-display scheme according to the display scheme change instruction; the movable display subunit is used to display the physical display content in the target display area when the target sub-display scheme includes physical display content; and the multimedia display subunit is used to display the multimedia display content in the target display area when the target sub-display scheme includes multimedia display content.
[0082] Specifically, when visitors finish visiting the first exhibition area and move to the second exhibition area, in order to avoid the first exhibition area from interfering with the visitor's view when the sub-exhibition scheme of the first exhibition area is changed, the moving blocking sub-unit can block the first exhibition area. At this time, it can be assumed that only the second exhibition area exists in the current exhibition hall, thereby helping visitors focus on visiting the second exhibition area.
[0083] In practical applications, the mobile display subunit can be a motorized display panel or a motorized display stand. Therefore, when the display scheme includes physical objects, it can be displayed through the mobile display subunit. For example, when it is necessary to display a cultural relic, the cultural relic can be placed on a motorized display stand, so that visitors can directly view the physical cultural relic.
[0084] The multimedia display sub-unit can be a projector or a movable multimedia display board, etc. Therefore, when the display scheme includes physical multimedia files, they can be displayed by moving the display sub-unit. The multimedia files can be video files, audio files, etc.
[0085] The aforementioned movable obscuring subunit and movable display subunit are equipped with mechanical structures such as slide rails and motors capable of executing control commands, which are issued by the control unit. Based on this, the control unit can flexibly control the movable obscuring subunit and movable display subunit, thereby diversifying the display formats and enhancing the viewing experience for visitors.
[0086] In some embodiments, the exhibition hall resource management unit further includes an access control subunit, which is used to restrict the range of activities of visitors in the exhibition hall.
[0087] Specifically, the control unit can also control the access control subunit. Specifically, electric doors can be installed in each exhibition area. When the electric door of an area is closed, visitors cannot enter that area. When the electric door is open, visitors can enter the area. Furthermore, multiple areas are interconnected, meaning that one area can be accessed to the next. Based on this, the access control subunit can make the tour route more diverse, thereby enhancing the visitor's experience.
[0088] The exhibition hall control method provided in this disclosure can be executed by a terminal or by a chip applied to the terminal.
[0089] For example, the aforementioned terminals may include one or more of the following: mobile phones, tablets, wearable devices, in-vehicle devices, laptops, ultra-mobile personal computers (UMPCs), netbooks, handheld computers (PDAs), and wearable devices based on augmented reality (AR) and / or virtual reality (VR) technologies. They may also include, but are not limited to, remote control devices, wearable devices, streetlights, home appliances, and other smart terminals. This disclosure does not impose specific limitations on these aspects.
[0090] Figure 4 A flowchart illustrating the exhibition hall control method provided in an embodiment of this disclosure is shown. Figure 4 As shown, an exhibition hall control system applied in this embodiment of the disclosure includes an exhibition hall resource management unit and a control unit. The exhibition hall resource management unit includes an image acquisition subunit and a display subunit. The method includes:
[0091] S401: Given a target display scheme, the display sub-unit arranges the display areas in the exhibition hall according to the target display scheme. The target display scheme includes multiple sub-display schemes, and one display area corresponds to multiple sub-display schemes.
[0092] S402: When the image acquisition subunit obtains the image information corresponding to each display area, the image acquisition subunit sends the image information to the control unit. The control unit determines the target display area visited by the target visitor at the current moment and the corresponding number of visits from each display area based on the image information, and determines the target sub-display scheme from multiple sub-display schemes corresponding to the target display area based on the number of visits.
[0093] S403: When the control unit determines that the target visitor has left the target display area based on the image information, it generates a display scheme change instruction based on the target sub-display scheme and sends the display scheme change instruction to the display sub-unit. The display sub-unit changes the sub-display scheme currently used in the target display area to the target sub-display scheme according to the display scheme change instruction.
[0094] As can be seen, the embodiments of this disclosure can monitor the visitor's visit through image acquisition equipment. After detecting that a visitor has left the target display area, the control center can determine the target sub-display scheme to be used for the next visit based on the number of times the visitor has viewed the target display area, and update the display content in the target display area according to the target sub-display scheme. Based on this, each display area can continuously change the display content, thereby allowing more content to be displayed in a limited space. At the same time, the visitor's visit can also be monitored, and the display content is only updated after the visitor has left the target display area, avoiding the impact of the display content switching process on the visitor's visit, thereby ensuring the visitor's visit efficiency.
[0095] In some embodiments, the exhibition hall resource management unit further includes a guidance subunit and a prompting subunit. After the display subunit changes the sub-display scheme currently used in the target display area to the target sub-display scheme according to the display scheme change instruction, the guidance subunit guides the target visitors to visit the target display area. At the same time, if the target visitors stay in the target display area for more than a preset threshold time, the prompting subunit prompts the target visitors to leave the target display area.
[0096] Specifically, in this embodiment, the guidance subunit can guide visitors' routes and speeds by controlling lights or emitting sounds, among other methods, when multiple visitors are orderly touring the exhibition hall according to a preset route. For example, a flowing light strip can be arranged along the preset route, with the lights on the drivable routes turned on and the unlit routes designated as prohibited. Based on this, visitors can only move through the exhibition hall along the lit routes, thus achieving the purpose of guiding their movement. It should be understood that in practical applications, common technologies such as voice prompts and LED signage can also be used to provide guidance to visitors. Furthermore, the guidance subunit can also take the form of a mobile intelligent robot, integrating the necessary functions into the robot to increase visitor engagement and ensure a better guiding effect.
[0097] The prompting subunit can have a voice prompt function to remind visitors if they linger too long in a certain exhibition area, or to encourage them to speed up their visit if they are moving slowly. For example, for a target visitor in a specific exhibition area, after obtaining the corresponding exhibition duration, the subunit can use image acquisition equipment to acquire real-time image information of that area. It can then extract the initial image information that first identifies the target visitor and the final image information that last identifies them. Based on the acquisition time of these images, the subunit can determine the visitor's total time spent in the target exhibition area. If the visit duration exceeds the corresponding exhibition duration, the prompting subunit can issue a voice announcement, such as "Please proceed to the next exhibition area as soon as possible." Based on this, the guidance subunit and the prompting subunit can work together to guide visitors through different exhibition areas in sequence, thus presenting rich content within a limited space and allowing visitors to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the exhibits.
[0098] In some embodiments, the display subunit further includes a mobile occlusion subunit, a mobile display subunit, and a multimedia display subunit. During the process of the display subunit changing the sub-display scheme currently used in the target display area to the target sub-display scheme according to the display scheme change instruction, the target display area is occluded by the mobile occlusion subunit.
[0099] When the target sub-display scheme includes physical display content, the physical display content is displayed through a mobile display sub-unit; when the target sub-display scheme includes multimedia display content, the multimedia display content is displayed through a multimedia display sub-unit.
[0100] Specifically, when visitors finish visiting the first exhibition area and move to the second exhibition area, in order to avoid the first exhibition area from interfering with the visitor's view when the sub-exhibition scheme of the first exhibition area is changed, the moving blocking sub-unit can block the first exhibition area. At this time, it can be assumed that only the second exhibition area exists in the current exhibition hall, thereby helping visitors focus on visiting the second exhibition area.
[0101] In practical applications, the mobile display subunit can be a motorized display panel or a motorized display stand. Therefore, when the display scheme includes physical objects, it can be displayed through the mobile display subunit. For example, when it is necessary to display a cultural relic, the cultural relic can be placed on a motorized display stand, so that visitors can directly view the physical cultural relic.
[0102] The multimedia display sub-unit can be a projector or a movable multimedia display board, etc. Therefore, when the display scheme includes physical multimedia files, they can be displayed by moving the display sub-unit. The multimedia files can be video files, audio files, etc.
[0103] The aforementioned movable obscuring subunit and movable display subunit are equipped with mechanical structures such as slide rails and motors capable of executing control commands, which are issued by the control unit. Based on this, the control unit can flexibly control the movable obscuring subunit and movable display subunit, thereby diversifying the display formats and enhancing the viewing experience for visitors.
[0104] In some embodiments, the exhibition hall resource management unit may further include an image recognition subunit, an image classification subunit, and an image analysis subunit. Based on this, the image recognition subunit can be used to identify visitors in the exhibition hall according to image information to obtain recognition results; the image classification subunit can be used to classify visitors according to the recognition results to obtain classification results; and the image analysis subunit can be used to analyze the recognition results and classification results to obtain a target display scheme.
[0105] Specifically, when using the image recognition subunit to identify multiple visitors, the identity weights of the multiple visitors can be obtained; then, the target visitor can be determined from the multiple visitors based on the identity weights; and the target visitor can be monitored through the image acquisition subunit.
[0106] In practical applications, when the control unit acquires image information from the image acquisition subunit, it can first use the image recognition subunit to recognize the facial information in the image information and obtain the recognition result. Then, the recognition result is matched with the facial information already existing in the storage subunit. Based on this, the identity of the visitor can be determined. The identity of the visitor can include staff members. The number of times the visitor has visited can also be determined, and the visitor can be marked as a first-time visitor, a second-time visitor, or a target visitor.
[0107] When multiple visitors are visiting, their respective identity weights can be determined. Then, based on these identity weights, the visitor with the highest weight can be identified as the target visitor. The target visitor can then be tracked in real time using image acquisition equipment in the exhibition hall.
[0108] Specifically, before a tour group visits the exhibition hall, the group leader can be consulted to determine the identity weights of multiple visitors within the group. The visitor with the highest identity weight is then identified as the target visitor. When the tour group enters the exhibition hall, the control unit can control multiple image acquisition devices in the hall to focus on the target visitor, enabling real-time tracking and filming. It should be understood that after identifying the target visitor, their facial image can be acquired, and facial information can be recognized by the image recognition subunit. The recognized facial information is then stored in the storage subunit for subsequent identification of the visitor.
[0109] In practical applications, the weighting of visitor identity can be determined by referring to the visitor's job title. Higher job titles carry greater weight, and lower job titles carry less weight. The specific weighting can be set according to the actual situation. For example, when using job title as a reference for visitor identity weighting, the highest-ranking visitor in the visiting group can be designated as the target visitor. It should be understood that the visitor's age can also be determined through image recognition, and age weights can be set for different ages—higher age weights for older visitors and lower age weights for younger visitors. Based on this, the target visitor can be determined based on the age weights of multiple visitors, thus identifying the visitor with the highest age weight as the target visitor. It should be understood that the importance mentioned above can be determined by identity weight or age weight; that is, the visitor with the highest identity weight or the highest age weight can be designated as the most important.
[0110] After acquiring image information through the image acquisition device, the image recognition subunit in the control unit can detect whether facial information exists in the image information. If facial information is present, a facial matrix is constructed using the facial information, and a similarity algorithm is used to match the facial matrix with multiple facial information entries in the storage subunit. If a match is successful, the visitor's identity can be determined based on the matching result. If a match fails, the visitor corresponding to the facial information is marked as a first-time visitor, and the failed facial information and the visitor's corresponding start and end times are transmitted to the storage subunit. It should be understood that the facial information already stored in the storage subunit can be deleted when the visitor leaves the exhibition hall, i.e., when the image acquisition device determines that the visitor has left the exhibition hall. Alternatively, a preset time period can be set, i.e., if no facial information of the visitor is acquired in the exhibition hall within the preset time period, the facial information of the visitor will be automatically deleted. This information can also be maintained by relevant technical personnel. Furthermore, the facial information of staff members should be pre-stored in the storage subunit to accurately identify visitors and reduce storage costs.
[0111] In some embodiments, the image classification subunit can be used to classify multiple visitors. For example, the age of a visitor can be determined by the facial information obtained by the image recognition subunit, and then the multiple visitors can be divided into a youth group and an adult group according to their age, and the number of visitors in the youth group and the adult group can be counted.
[0112] In some embodiments, the image analysis subunit can analyze the classification results obtained by the image classification subunit and the image recognition results obtained by the image recognition subunit to determine the display scheme. The classification results can be the number of visitors in the youth group and the adult group, and the image recognition results can be the identity of the visitors.
[0113] In practical applications, display schemes can be designed for the preset display content from multiple perspectives. Then, based on the classification results and image recognition results, the best display scheme can be determined from multiple display schemes and presented to visitors.
[0114] The foregoing mainly describes the solutions provided by the embodiments of this disclosure. It is understood that, in order to achieve the above functions, the electronic device includes hardware structures and / or software modules corresponding to the execution of each function. Those skilled in the art should readily recognize that, based on the units and algorithm steps of the various examples described in conjunction with the embodiments disclosed herein, this disclosure can be implemented in hardware or a combination of hardware and computer software. Whether a function is executed in hardware or by computer software driving hardware depends on the specific application and design constraints of the technical solution. Those skilled in the art can use different methods to implement the described functions for each specific application, but such implementation should not be considered beyond the scope of this disclosure.
[0115] This disclosure embodiment can divide the electronic device into functional units according to the above method example. For example, each function can be divided into a separate functional module, or two or more functions can be integrated into one processing module. The integrated module can be implemented in hardware or as a software functional module. It should be noted that the module division in this disclosure embodiment is illustrative and only represents one logical functional division; other division methods may be used in actual implementation.
[0116] By dividing each function into corresponding functional modules, this disclosure provides an exhibition hall control device, which can be an electronic device or a chip applied to an electronic device. Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the exhibition hall control device provided in an embodiment of this disclosure is shown. Figure 5 As shown, the exhibition hall control system applied in this embodiment of the disclosure includes an exhibition hall resource management unit and a control unit, wherein the exhibition hall resource management unit includes an image acquisition subunit and a display subunit, and the device 500 includes:
