Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of rapid identification and configuration of smart home devices, and in particular to a rapid identification and configuration method of smart home devices based on NFC technology. Background Art

[0002] With the popularity of smart homes, more and more devices need to be identified and configured in home networks. However, in smart home systems, the configuration and management of various devices usually involve multiple communication protocols and complex operating steps. Traditional configuration methods, such as device identification and network configuration through Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, wired connection, or device binding and initialization configuration through scanning QR codes, usually require users to manually enter network parameters or rely on cumbersome setting interfaces, which not only increases the difficulty of user operation, but also is prone to configuration errors. This is not only time-consuming, but also has a poor user experience, and is prone to configuration failures or unstable device connections. NFC technology is a short-range wireless communication technology that exchanges information by establishing close-range sensing between devices. It has the advantages of low power consumption, simple operation, and fast transmission. How to apply NFC technology to smart home devices is a problem that needs to be solved. Therefore, the present application proposes a smart home device rapid identification and configuration method based on NFC technology to improve configuration efficiency and user experience.
