[0049] The specific embodiments of the application have been shown in the above-mentioned drawings, and will be described in more detail hereinafter. These drawings and textual descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept of the application by any means, but to illustrate the concept of the application to those skilled in the art by referring to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0050] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0051] The terms "first", "second", "third", "fourth" and the like in the description, claims, and drawings of the present application, if any, are used for distinguishing between similar objects and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that the use of the terms so termed is interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the application described herein are capable of accomplishing the same objectives if not identically.

[0052] In the embodiments of the present application, the words "exemplary" or "for example" are used to mean example, illustration, or description. Any embodiment or design solution described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the present application should not be interpreted as being more preferred or advantageous than other embodiments or design solutions. Rather, the use of "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present concepts in a particular manner.

[0053] With the increasing demand of people on household appliances, such as cost performance, beauty or interactive human nature, the existing household appliances are gradually improving in intelligence. As a supporting device of household appliances, the remote controller can bring users a convenient use experience. However, in the general home use scenario, the diversification of functions is easy to lead to the wrong control of children on household appliances. For example, when the air conditioner remote controller is mistaken as a toy by children, it is easy to make the air conditioner set not meet the current demand, or even run in a relatively extreme temperature condition, which threatens the health of children.

[0054] In order to avoid the above problems, the existing technology provides a child lock mode for the air conditioner remote controller. When an adult thinks that a child in the current scene may mistakenly operate the air conditioner, the adult can set the air conditioner remote controller into the child lock mode in advance. This function can prevent children from pressing the remote controller randomly and causing wrong control of the air conditioner. However, in actual situations, even if the current air conditioner has a child lock function, the adult may forget to set the remote controller into the child lock mode, or the child's mistaken operation may also accidentally exit the remote controller from the child lock mode, which still has a safety hazard. In addition, the operation mode of manually starting the child lock by the adult is also not convenient.

[0055] In view of the existing problems, the application provides a control method of an air conditioner, which obtains feature information of a target user, including body shape information and / or voice information, through a control instruction of the user, including a remote controller instruction or a voice instruction, and determines whether the target user is a child according to the feature information. If the target user is a child, a child lock mode is started, and the air conditioner does not execute the received command. The method can intelligently determine the behavior of a child misoperation and automatically start the child lock mode to shield the received instruction, so as to prevent the child misoperation. The method does not depend on setting the child lock for the remote controller, but is autonomously determined by the air conditioner, is more intelligent, avoids manual setting of an adult user, and improves convenience.

[0056] Figure 1 An application scenario provided for an embodiment of the application is shown in FIG. 1. Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 1, a user 101 can issue a control instruction through a remote controller or voice. When the control instruction is a remote controller instruction, the air conditioner 102 controls an infrared detector thereon to obtain an infrared image in a preset area according to the instruction, extracts body shape information of the target user according to the infrared image, compares the body shape information with a preset threshold, determines whether the target user is a child, starts a child lock mode if the target user is a child, and executes the control instruction normally if the target user is not a child. When the user 101 issues an instruction through voice, the air conditioner 102 obtains voice information according to the voice instruction, determines whether the language belongs to a child according to at least one of a voice frequency, a voice intensity, or a speech speed in the voice information, executes the step of obtaining the infrared image to further determine whether the target user is a child if the language belongs to a child, and executes the instruction normally if the target user is not a child.

[0057] The technical solutions of the application and how the technical solutions solve the above technical problems will be described in detail below with specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes can not be described again in some embodiments. The embodiments of the application will be described below with reference to the drawings.

[0058] Figure 2 A flow of the air conditioner control method provided for an embodiment of the application is shown in FIG. 2. Figure One .

[0059] As shown in FIG. 2, the method includes the following steps. Figure 2

[0060] S201, a control instruction of a user is obtained, the control instruction including a remote controller instruction or a voice instruction.

[0061] ​In this step, the instruction issued to the air conditioner can be operated by operating the remote controller or voice interaction. When the user issues an instruction through the remote controller, the air conditioner receives the infrared signal sent by the remote controller and parses the control instruction contained therein, or when voice interaction, the air conditioner can record the user's voice features at the same time as receiving the voice instruction, as one of the basis for subsequent judgment whether it is a child.

[0062] S202, according to the control instruction, the feature information of the target user is obtained, and the feature information includes body shape information and / or voice information.

[0063] Among them, the body shape information is obtained by the infrared detector on the air conditioner, and the voice information is obtained according to the voice instruction.

[0064] It should be noted that the infrared detector usually uses infrared radiation technology to detect the thermal energy radiation of objects. All objects emit thermal radiation, and the human body can also emit infrared radiation. When the detector receives the infrared radiation signal, it will trigger a signal indicating that a human body exists. At the same time, in order to enable the detector to distinguish between children and adults, it is necessary to combine the body shape information, for example, the body height, volume and other body shape information of the human body can be comprehensively judged.

[0065] For example, if the control instruction is the remote controller instruction, the feature information includes body shape information, and the method includes:

[0066] According to the control instruction, the infrared image is obtained by the infrared detector;

[0067] The feature information of the target user in the preset area in the infrared image is obtained, the preset area is the area close to the air conditioner, and the feature information of the target user includes body shape information.

[0068] Specifically, the body shape information can include height or volume. The height and volume of adults and children are significantly different, and can be distinguished by setting a threshold. When the height and / or volume of the detected human body exceeds the threshold, it is judged to be an adult, otherwise it is a child. When the control instruction is a voice instruction, voice information can also be added for comprehensive judgment. The voice frequency, intensity or tone of children and adults are different. Generally speaking, the voice frequency of children is higher, and the voice information can be analyzed according to the voice frequency. At the same time, the voice of children is also sharp and high-pitched, and the speech speed is relatively slow. The intensity or speech speed can be analyzed according to the voice information. It should be noted that the voice judgment may be affected by environmental noise, so appropriate noise filtering and signal processing can be performed.

[0069] S203. Based on the feature information, determine whether the target user is a child. If the target user is determined to be a child, activate the child lock mode and the air conditioner will not execute the control command.

[0070] For example, after the child lock mode is activated, it further includes:

[0071] A notification message is pushed to the mobile terminal bound to the air conditioner. The notification message is used to indicate to the user corresponding to the mobile terminal that the child lock mode has been enabled, and to determine whether to disable the child lock mode.

[0072] If the user reports that the child lock mode is turned off, the air conditioner will turn off the child lock mode and execute the control command.

[0073] It should be noted that, in order to inform users of the current status of the air conditioner, i.e. whether the air conditioner has activated the child lock mode, when the air conditioner determines that the child lock mode needs to be activated based on the feature information, it can remind adult users of the current status by pushing a message to the mobile terminal bound to the air conditioner. In addition to informing users, users can also choose whether to deactivate the child lock mode through the mobile terminal. When the system determines that it does not conform to the actual scenario, it allows users to make their own choice, thereby improving operability.

[0074] The air conditioner control method provided in this embodiment obtains the target user's characteristic information, including body shape information and / or voice information, according to the user's control command. The body shape information is obtained through an infrared detector on the air conditioner, and the voice information is obtained through voice commands. Based on the characteristic information, if it is determined that the target user is a child, the child lock mode is activated, and the received command is not executed. At the same time, a prompt message is sent to the mobile terminal bound to the air conditioner to confirm with the user whether to turn off the child lock mode. This method can intelligently and effectively prevent children from accidentally operating the air conditioner, while avoiding the inconvenience of manual settings by adults, improving safety and enhancing the user experience.

[0075] Figure 3 Flowchart of the air conditioner control method provided in the embodiments of this application Figure Two .like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment... Figure 2 Based on the embodiments, the process by which the air conditioner determines if a remote control command is from a child is described in detail. This method includes:

[0076] S301. Obtain the location information of the target user in the preset area.

[0077] The profile of the target user is acquired, and a bar grid to which the profile of the target user belongs in the infrared image is determined, wherein the infrared image is divided into bar grids that overlap with each other, and a length direction of the bar grid is consistent with a height direction of a human body.

[0078] According to a position of the grid, position information of the target user in the preset area is determined.

[0079] Specifically, since the profile information of the infrared image is affected by a distance of the target user to the detector, when the distance of the target user to the detector is far, the profile in the image is small, and when the distance of the target user to the detector is close, the profile in the image is large. Therefore, different bar grids that overlap with each other can be divided according to the distance, and the length direction of the grid is consistent with the direction of the human body, so that the position of the grid is in the same plane as the target user. Therefore, the position information of the user can be determined according to the position of the grid.

[0080] It should be noted that when there are multiple profile information in the preset area, for the remote control instruction, the direction of the infrared signal can be acquired when the infrared signal is received, and for the voice instruction, the direction of the voice signal can be determined, so that the profile information in the direction belongs to the target user, and the specific position information of the target user is determined according to the position of the grid.

[0081] S302, according to the position information, threshold information corresponding to the position information is acquired, and the threshold information includes a height threshold and / or a volume threshold.

[0082] Exemplarily, threshold information corresponding to the bar grid is acquired.

[0083] Specifically, since the profile information of the infrared image is affected by the distance of the target user to the detector, the threshold of the profile information corresponding to different positions needs to be different to ensure the accuracy of comparison. Therefore, different thresholds of the profile information can be set for different grids, and the size of the threshold decreases with the increase of the distance of the grid to the detector. The specific threshold can be determined through a large amount of measured data analysis. The profile information includes height and / or volume, the height is the length of the human body profile in the infrared image, and the volume is the area of the human body profile. Correspondingly, the threshold information includes a height threshold and / or a volume threshold.

[0084] S303, according to the profile information, the height and / or volume of the target user are acquired, and if the height and / or volume of the target user are less than the height threshold and / or the volume threshold, it is determined that the target user is a child.

[0085] In this step, height and volume from body shape information can be used together. Only when both are greater than or less than a threshold can a child be identified as an adult or a child. Alternatively, only height or volume can be analyzed for judgment; there is no restriction. It should be noted that height and / or volume thresholds can accurately distinguish between adults and children, representing the critical values ​​between the two. These thresholds can be determined through extensive data analysis and subsequently calibrated.

[0086] The air conditioner control method provided in this embodiment acquires an infrared image through an infrared detector, determines the grid to which the human figure outline in the infrared image belongs, thereby determining the specific location of the target user, and determines the corresponding height and / or volume threshold based on the threshold information corresponding to the location, and then judges and compares whether the target user is a child. This method is based on the obvious characteristics of children and adults, which is conducive to the accuracy of the analysis. At the same time, using infrared images is also conducive to protecting the user's privacy.

[0087] Figure 4 Flowchart of the air conditioner control method provided in the embodiments of this application Figure Three .like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment... Figure 3 Based on the embodiments, the process by which the air conditioner determines whether a voice command is from a child is described in detail. This method includes:

[0088] S401. According to the voice command, obtain the voice information of the target user. The voice information includes multiple indicators, including at least one of voice frequency, voice intensity, or speech rate.

[0089] In this step, when the user uses voice commands, the air conditioner can acquire sound information based on the voice commands to extract the required sound features, including but not limited to sound frequency, intensity, or speech rate. Generally, there are differences in sound frequency between adults and children. Children's sound frequencies are higher, so frequency analysis can be performed on the sound information to extract the main frequency components, and then judgment can be made based on the frequency range. There are also certain differences in sound intensity between adults and children. Children's sound intensity is sharper and higher, so the intensity range in the sound information can be extracted for judgment. In addition, children's speech rate is slower than adults, which can also be used for judgment based on this feature. It should be noted that sound judgment is easily affected by environmental noise, so appropriate noise filtering and signal processing can be performed when extracting sound information.

[0090] S402. Obtain the sub-probability corresponding to each indicator in the sound information, wherein the sub-probability represents the probability that the indicator indicates a child.

[0091] In this step, based on the range of the value of each index in the obtained sound information, the probability that each index points to the sound coming from a child can be analyzed, which can be realized through big data or the establishment of an analysis model. Meanwhile, in order to improve accuracy, sound judgment is only used as an additional judgment. When the sound information points to the target user who is likely to be a child, the body shape information of the target user can be further analyzed and judged.

[0092] S403, obtaining a weighted value according to the sub-probability of the index and the corresponding weight.

[0093] In this step, when the sound information includes multiple indexes, the corresponding weight can be given to each index according to the actual situation. After determining the probability that a single index points to a child, the corresponding weight is combined to calculate and obtain a weighted value.

[0094] S404, if the weighted value is greater than the preset probability, determining that the sound information is a target sound mode.

[0095] The target sound mode is used to indicate that the probability that the sound information belongs to a child exceeds a preset probability.

[0096] In this step, the weighted value is used as an indication of the probability that the sound information belongs to a child. By comparing it with the preset probability, it can be determined whether it can be considered as a high probability that the sound belongs to a child, and the next step of judgment needs to be performed. For example, when the weighted value exceeds 50%, it can be determined that the sound may come from a child. A suitable preset probability can also be determined through analysis of a large amount of data, which is not limited here.

[0097] S405, if yes, determining to perform the step of obtaining an infrared image through the infrared detector.

[0098] In this step, when the sound information analysis indicates that the voice instruction may come from a child, the infrared image is continued to be obtained to determine the body shape information of the target user, and then the target user is finally determined to be a child. Multiple judgments greatly improve the accuracy of the result.

[0099] The air conditioner control method provided in this embodiment is based on the voice instruction of the user. The sound information of the user is analyzed first to confirm the probability that each index in the sound information points to the sound belonging to a child, and a weighted value is obtained. When the weighted value exceeds a preset probability, it is determined that the voice instruction may come from a child, and the body shape information of the user is continued to be analyzed. This method effectively uses sound characteristics for additional judgment in the scene of voice interaction, improves the recognition efficiency, and ensures the accuracy of the judgment result by combining body shape information analysis.

[0103] The processing module 502 is configured to determine whether the target user is a child according to the feature information, and if the target user is determined to be a child, a child lock mode is started, and the air conditioner does not execute the control instruction.
