[0032] The following is a description of exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, including various details of the embodiments of the present disclosure to facilitate understanding, which should be considered as merely exemplary. Therefore, it should be recognized by those of ordinary skill in the art that various changes and modifications may be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope of the present disclosure. Similarly, for the sake of clarity and conciseness, the description of well-known functions and structures is omitted in the following description.

[0033] The term "and / or" in this article is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there may be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. The term "at least one" in this article means any combination of at least two of any one or more of a plurality of. For example, including at least one of A, B, and C can mean including any one or more elements selected from the set consisting of A, B, and C. The terms "first" and "second" in this article refer to multiple similar technical terms and distinguish them. They do not mean to limit the order or to limit them to only two. For example, the first feature and the second feature refer to two types / two features. The first feature can be one or more, and the second feature can also be one or more.

[0034] In addition, in order to better illustrate the present disclosure, numerous specific details are given in the specific embodiments below. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present disclosure can also be implemented without certain specific details. In some examples, methods, means, components and circuits well known to those skilled in the art are not described in detail in order to highlight the main purpose of the present disclosure.

[0035] The disclosed solution provides a smart device control method, which can make the smart control between different devices more stable without being limited by distance requirements, so as to meet the user's diverse needs for smart control, thereby effectively improving the user experience.

[0036] Specifically, Figure 1 This is a schematic flow chart of a smart device control method according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 The method may be optionally applied to electronic devices, such as personal computers, servers, server clusters, and other electronic devices.

[0037] Further, the method includes at least part of the following contents. Figure 1 As shown, the smart device control method is applied to the cloud, including:

[0038] Step S101: The cloud determines mode information of the current working mode of the first device based on the control data uploaded by the first device.

[0039] For example, in one example, the control data uploaded by the first device may be obtained based on input from the target object, such as voice data, gesture operation or text information of the target object.

[0040] Further, in one example, the control data carries mode information for describing the current working mode of the first device. Alternatively, in another example, the cloud can obtain the mode information of the current working mode of the first device based on the control data uploaded by the first device. The disclosed solution does not impose specific restrictions on this.

[0041] Step S102: The cloud determines the target device to be controlled according to the mode information of the current working mode of the first device.

[0042] Step S103: The cloud sends the control instruction determined based on the control data to the target device to control the target device to execute the control instruction.

[0043] That is to say, in this example, after the first device uploads the control data to the cloud corresponding to the first device, the cloud determines the mode information of the current working mode of the first device based on the control data, and then determines the target device to be controlled, so as to send the control instructions determined based on the control data to the target device. In other words, in this example, the cloud can be used to achieve intelligent control. Compared with the existing control method, this method has higher flexibility and system stability, and is not limited to distance limitations.

[0044] In this way, the disclosed solution can utilize the mode information of the current working mode of the first device to determine the smart device to be controlled (i.e., the target device), and then send a control instruction to the smart device to control the smart device to execute the control instruction. In this way, the cloud is used to control the smart device. Compared with the existing control method, this method has higher flexibility, intelligence and system stability.

[0045] In addition, since the disclosed solution does not restrict control instructions, in other words, it can be any control instruction, so the disclosed solution can support more and more complex control operations, and the control is more diversified, thus meeting the user's high standards and diversified needs for intelligent control, thereby effectively improving the user experience.

[0046] Furthermore, since the disclosed solution can upload the control requirements obtained by the first device to the corresponding cloud, and send the determined control instructions to the target device to be controlled through the cloud, the control distance between different devices (such as the first device and the target device) is no longer limited, the control method is more flexible, and the user experience is further improved.

[0047] Furthermore, in a specific example, the control instruction can also be obtained in the following manner: specifically, before the cloud sends the control instruction determined based on the control data to the target device, for example, before the above step S103, the method further includes: performing intent recognition on the control data, obtaining the intent recognition result corresponding to the control data, and generating the control instruction according to the intent recognition result. In this way, the user's control needs are accurately understood, which provides technical support for the subsequent accuracy and timeliness of intelligent control, and thus lays the foundation for improving the user experience.

[0048] It should be pointed out that in actual applications, the intent of control data can be identified based on a natural language model, or based on preset rules, etc. The present disclosure does not impose any specific restrictions on this.

[0049] In a specific example of the disclosed solution, the target device is the first device, or a second device associated with the first device. In this way, the flexibility and intelligence of the control method in the disclosed solution are improved, and the user experience is enhanced.

[0050] Furthermore, in one example, the first device may be a smart speaker, for example, a smart screen speaker. At this time, in one example, in a smart home scenario, the voice data collected by the smart speaker may be used as control data.

[0051] Furthermore, in another example, the second device is a television control device capable of adjusting television channels.

[0052] In other words, in one example, in a scenario where a smart speaker controls a TV control device, the first device is a smart speaker. In this case, the target device may be the smart speaker or may be a TV control device (e.g., a set-top box) associated with the smart speaker and capable of adjusting TV channels.

[0053] That is to say, the disclosed solution can be applied to the scenario where a smart speaker controls a TV control device. In this scenario, the target object can control the TV control device based on the smart speaker and through voice and other means, and then control the adjustment of the TV channel. Compared with the existing control methods such as infrared code or Bluetooth, the control method provided by the disclosed solution has higher flexibility, convenience, and system stability, and is not limited to distance limitations.

[0054] Moreover, the disclosed solution can also take into account the scenario of cloud-controlled smart speakers. In other words, it can control the TV control device without changing the cloud-controlled smart speakers. This further meets the user's diverse control needs and further improves the user experience.

[0055] Furthermore, in a specific example, Figure 2 As shown, the smart device control method may specifically include:

[0056] Step S201: The cloud determines mode information of the current working mode of the first device based on the control data uploaded by the first device.

[0057] For example, in one example, the cloud determines the mode information of the current working mode of the smart speaker based on the control data uploaded by the smart speaker (such as a smart screen speaker, corresponding to the first device described above).

[0058] Here, the relevant content about the control data can refer to the above examples, which will not be repeated here.

[0059] For example, in one example, taking the example of controlling a TV control device (such as a set-top box) through a smart speaker, the target object can turn on the working mode of the smart speaker through voice or other gesture operations. For example, in one example, as shown in FIG3(a), the smart speaker can be triggered to enter the Lingxi mode (that is, the target mode described above) in a variety of ways; specifically:

[0060] Method 1: Application (Application, App) external command trigger; that is, the target object sends a voice command "Watch XXX on TV" (also known as a channel control command) to the smart speaker. At this time, the smart speaker responds to the voice command and generates an opening request to open the Lingxi Time App (also known as the TV control APP), and initiates the opening request to the cloud to request to open the Lingxi Time App and enter the Lingxi mode; further, if the request is successful, the smart speaker opens the Lingxi Time App and pops up a window to prompt to enter the Lingxi mode. Furthermore, after entering the Lingxi mode, the smart speaker can further respond to the voice command "Watch XXX on TV", for example, further switch to the "XXX" channel or "XXX" program.

[0061] Method 2: Triggered by internal instructions of the application (Application, App); that is, in the scenario where the smart speaker opens the Lingxi Time App, it responds to the startup instruction of "turn on Lingxi mode" (which can be a voice command or a gesture command, etc.). At this time, the smart speaker responds to the startup instruction and generates a mode request to enter Lingxi mode, and initiates the mode request to the cloud to request to enter Lingxi mode.

[0062] Method three: triggered by a click inside the application (Application, App); that is, in the scenario where the smart speaker opens the Lingxi Time App, as shown in Figure 3(b), a start button for "Lingxi Mode" (or prompt information such as "TV Watching") is set. At this time, the smart speaker responds to the touch operation of the start button, and generates a mode request to enter the Lingxi mode, and initiates the mode request to the cloud to request to enter the Lingxi mode.

[0063] It should be noted that the terminal status can also be recorded on the smart speaker to record the current working mode; for example, after the smart speaker enters the Lingxi mode, the terminal status can be modified accordingly to record that it is currently in the Lingxi mode.

[0064] Furthermore, it should be noted that, in one example, the control data uploaded by the smart speaker may carry the terminal status, so that the cloud can determine the current working mode of the smart speaker based on the terminal status. For example, in one example, when the smart speaker enters the Lingxi mode and the smart speaker marks the terminal status as "Lingxi mode", the control data uploaded by the smart speaker thereafter will carry the terminal status. In this way, the cloud can determine the working mode of the smart speaker based on the terminal status uploaded by the smart speaker, such as whether it is in the target mode, and then accurately identify the smart devices that need to be controlled, thereby improving the system's response speed and operation accuracy.

[0065] Alternatively, in another example, when the smart speaker enters Lingxi mode and the smart speaker marks the end state as "Lingxi mode", and at the same time, does not exit "Lingxi mode", the smart speaker can carry the end state in the uploaded control data when the end state changes. In other words, when the end state does not change, there is no need to carry the end state in the uploaded control data.

[0066] Furthermore, for the receiving end, that is, the cloud, the smart speaker may initiate a request, for example, after the three types of requests described above are successful, the terminal status of the smart device will be marked on the cloud. At this time, after the smart speaker subsequently uploads control data, the current working mode of the smart speaker can be determined from the terminal status recorded by itself.

[0067] Furthermore, it should be noted that after entering the Lingxi mode, the cloud can further detect the communication link with the TV control device to ensure that the control instructions can be sent to the TV control device in a timely manner, thereby controlling the regulation of the TV channels.

[0068] It should be pointed out that the above is only an example. In actual application, it can also be set based on actual needs, and the present disclosure does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0069] Step S202: The cloud determines whether the first device is in the target mode based on the mode information of the current working mode of the first device. If so, it proceeds to step S203, otherwise it proceeds to step S204.

[0070] For example, in one example, the cloud determines whether the smart speaker (corresponding to the first device described above) is in the target mode based on the mode information of the current working mode of the smart speaker. If so, it goes to step S203, otherwise it goes to step S204.

[0071] For example, taking the example of controlling a TV control device (such as a set-top box) through a smart speaker, the cloud can also determine whether the smart speaker (such as a smart screen speaker) is in Lingxi mode by judging whether the Lingxi mode pop-up window is visible. For example, if the Lingxi mode pop-up window on the smart speaker is visible, it is determined that the smart speaker is in Lingxi mode, otherwise the smart speaker is not in Lingxi mode.

[0072] Here, in this example, the target mode represents the mode in which the first device needs to control the second device. Furthermore, for example, in the scenario where the smart speaker controls the TV control device, the target mode can be specifically expressed as the mode in which the smart speaker needs to control the TV control device. In this case, the target mode can also be called the TV control mode.

[0073] It should be noted that in the above example, in order to support the target mode, it is also necessary to establish a link between the cloud and the TV control device, for example, the TV control device is bound to the cloud through a smart speaker in advance, so that the cloud can send control instructions to the TV control device. In this way, the target mode does not need to rely on communication technologies such as local area network, infrared remote control and Bluetooth, thereby providing a more flexible and stable intelligent control method.

[0074] It should be noted that in actual scenarios, if you want to use the target mode described above, you also need to meet the following conditions:

[0075] (1) The cloud is bound to the device information (such as account) of the TV control device.

[0076] (2) The bound TV control device and the TV controlled by the TV control device are turned on.

[0077] (3) After the target mode is turned on, the target mode pop-up window on the smart speaker (e.g., smart screen speaker) needs to be kept displayed in the foreground. For example, as shown in FIG3(c), the Lingxi mode pop-up window is always displayed on the smart speaker screen. In other words, the target mode is currently at the top layer of all applications.

[0078] Step S203: When the cloud determines that the first device is in the target mode, the second device is used as the target device, and the process proceeds to step S205.

[0079] For example, in one example, when the cloud determines that the smart speaker is in target mode, the TV control device is used as the target device, and the process proceeds to step S205.

[0080] Step S204: When the cloud determines that the first device is not in the target mode, the first device is used as the target device, and the process proceeds to step S205.

[0081] For example, in one example, when the cloud determines that the smart speaker is not in the target mode, the smart speaker is used as the target device, and the process proceeds to step S205.

[0082] Step S205: The cloud sends the control instruction determined based on the control data to the target device to control the target device to execute the control instruction.

[0083] For example, continuing to take the example of controlling a TV control device (such as a set-top box) through a smart speaker, as shown in Figure 3(d), after the smart speaker uploads the control data to the cloud, the cloud determines the mode information of the current working mode of the smart speaker based on the received control data. For example, the cloud determines the current working mode of the smart speaker based on the received terminal status of the smart speaker, and then determines whether the smart speaker is in Lingxi mode (that is, corresponding to the target mode described above); further, when the smart speaker is in Lingxi mode, it is determined that the device to be controlled is the TV control device (such as a set-top box) associated with the smart speaker. At this time, the control instruction determined based on the control data will be sent to the TV control device to control the TV control device to execute the control instruction, thereby realizing the regulation of the TV channel.

[0084] Alternatively, when the smart speaker is not in Lingxi mode, it is determined that the device to be controlled is the smart speaker, and then the control instruction determined based on the control data is sent to the smart speaker to control the smart speaker to execute the control instruction.

[0085] It should be noted that the control instructions can be used to control the TV to perform at least one of the following operations: switching TV channels, searching TV channels, adjusting the playback progress (such as fast forward, fast rewind), pausing, adjusting the volume, etc.

[0086] The above is only an example. In actual application, the control instruction can be any instruction that can control the TV, and the disclosed solution is not limited to this.

[0087] In this way, the disclosed solution can determine the smart device to be controlled (i.e., the target device) according to the mode information of the current working mode of the first device (e.g., smart speaker), and then send the control command to the smart device. In this way, the cloud is used to control the smart device. Compared with the existing control method, this method has higher flexibility, intelligence, and system stability, and is not limited by the control distance. In addition, the disclosed solution does not restrict the control command, and thus supports more and more complex control operations, meeting the user's high standards and diversified needs for intelligent control, thereby significantly improving the user experience.

[0088] For example, take the example of controlling a TV control device (such as a set-top box) through a smart speaker. Figure 4As shown, first, the device information of the TV control device is pushed to the cloud (such as the Lingxi Time service in the cloud) through the smart speaker end to bind the TV control device to the cloud corresponding to the smart speaker end; the TV control device can also push relevant data to the cloud. Secondly, after the smart speaker end (such as the Lingxi Time App) uploads the control data to the cloud, the cloud determines whether the smart speaker end is in Lingxi mode based on the end status of the smart speaker. If the smart speaker is in Lingxi mode, the cloud sends the control command to the TV control device on the TV end. Further, the TV control device sends the internal command corresponding to the control command to the TV to adjust the TV channel. If the smart speaker end is not in Lingxi mode, the cloud sends the control command to the smart speaker end. In this way, the disclosed solution can effectively use the cloud to control smart devices, thus effectively improving the flexibility, intelligence and system stability of smart control, and is no longer constrained by the control distance, thereby significantly improving the user experience.

[0089] Figure 5 FIG3 is a schematic flow chart of a method for controlling an intelligent device according to an embodiment of the present application. The method can optionally be applied to electronic devices, such as personal computers, servers, server clusters, and other electronic devices. It can be understood that the above Figures 1 to 4 The relevant contents of the method shown can also be applied to this example, and the relevant contents will not be described in detail in this example.

[0090] Further, the method includes at least part of the following contents. Specifically, Figure 5 As shown, the intelligent control method is applied in the cloud, including:

[0091] Step S501: The cloud determines mode information of the current working mode of the first device based on the control data uploaded by the first device.

[0092] For example, in one example, the cloud determines the mode information of the current working mode of the smart speaker (such as a smart screen speaker) based on the control data uploaded by the smart speaker.

[0093] Here, the relevant content about the control data can refer to the above examples, which will not be repeated here.

[0094] Step S502: The cloud determines whether the first device is in the target mode based on the mode information of the current working mode of the first device. If so, it proceeds to step S503, otherwise it proceeds to step S505.

[0095] For example, in one example, the cloud determines whether the smart speaker is in the target mode based on the mode information of the current working mode of the smart speaker. If so, it goes to step S503, otherwise it goes to step S505.

[0096] Here, in this example, the target mode indicates the mode in which the first device needs to control the second device. For example, in a scenario in which a smart speaker controls a TV control device, the target mode indicates the mode in which the smart speaker needs to control the TV control device. In this case, the target mode can also be called a TV control mode.

[0097] Step S503: When the cloud determines that the first device is in the target mode, it determines whether the first device meets the exit condition for exiting the target mode. If so, it proceeds to step S505; otherwise, it proceeds to step S504.

[0098] For example, in one example, when the cloud determines that the smart speaker is in the target mode, it determines whether the smart speaker meets the exit conditions for exiting the target mode. If so, it goes to step S505; otherwise, it goes to step S504.

[0099] Here, in this example, the exit condition for exiting the target mode may be a request instruction to exit the target mode issued by the target object on the smart speaker through a voice command (such as "exit target mode") or a click operation (such as clicking the exit button on the smart screen speaker) (also referred to as an active exit condition), or, it may also be that the priority of the non-target mode of the smart speaker (such as a call mode, other modes that cause the pop-up window of the target mode to be covered, etc.) is greater than the priority of the target mode (also referred to as a passive exit condition), and the present disclosure does not impose specific restrictions on this.

[0100] Step S504: When the cloud determines that the first device does not meet the exit condition for exiting the target mode, the second device is used as the target device, and the process proceeds to step S506.

[0101] For example, in one example, when the cloud determines that the smart speaker does not meet the exit condition for exiting the target mode, the TV control device is used as the target device, and the process proceeds to step S506.

[0102] Step S505: When the cloud determines that the first device meets the exit condition for exiting the target mode, the first device is used as the target device, and the process proceeds to step S506.

[0103] For example, in one example, when the cloud determines that the smart speaker meets the exit condition for exiting the target mode, the smart speaker is used as the target device, and the process proceeds to step S506.

[0104] It should be noted that, in actual applications, when the cloud determines that the smart speaker meets the exit conditions for exiting the target mode, the cloud can force the smart speaker to exit the target mode.

[0105] That is to say, in this example, when the cloud determines that the smart speaker is in the target mode, it can further determine whether the smart speaker meets the exit condition of the target mode, such as determining whether the smart speaker receives the exit instruction issued by the target object through voice command or click operation, or determining whether there is a program with a higher priority than the "target mode" on the smart speaker that needs to be executed. If so, it means that the smart speaker meets the exit condition. At this time, the smart speaker can be forced to exit the target mode. Accordingly, the cloud uses the smart speaker as the target device. Otherwise, that is, the smart speaker does not meet the exit condition, the cloud uses the TV control device as the target device.

[0106] In actual applications, as shown in FIG6(a), the target object can also close the target mode by clicking, for example, sending a close request to the cloud to close the target mode. Accordingly, if the request is successful, the smart speaker closes the target mode, for example, closes the pop-up window of the target mode, and accordingly, modifies the terminal state or clears the terminal state. Alternatively, in another example, the target object initiates a voice command to close the target mode, and accordingly, the smart speaker generates a close request to close the target mode and sends it to the cloud. Accordingly, if the request is successful, the smart speaker closes the target mode, for example, closes the pop-up window of the target mode, and accordingly, modifies the terminal state or clears the terminal state.

[0107] Alternatively, in another example, as shown in FIG6(b), the target object may also send a "pause" request to the smart speaker. After the smart speaker uploads the control data for "pause" to the cloud, the cloud determines whether the smart speaker is in Lingxi mode; if it is determined that it is not in Lingxi mode, the cloud sends a "pause" control instruction to the smart speaker to control the smart speaker to execute the control instruction.

[0108] Alternatively, when it is determined that the smart speaker is in Lingxi mode, the cloud sends the "pause" control command to the TV control device, and returns the determined execution result to the smart speaker; the TV control device executes the received "pause" control command to pause the current operation of the TV screen; in addition, after the TV control device executes the "pause" control command, the TV control device can also return the execution result (for example, message receipt) to the cloud, and the cloud determines whether the execution is successful based on the execution result. If it is determined that the execution fails, it generates a prompt message and sends the prompt message to the smart speaker. In this way, the intelligence level of smart control is significantly improved, so that users can know the current operation status in real time, avoiding users waiting for the response result for a long time, thereby improving the user experience.

[0109] Step S506: The cloud sends the control instruction determined based on the control data to the target device to control the target device to execute the control instruction.

[0110] In this way, after completing the judgment on whether the first device (such as a smart speaker) is in the target mode, the disclosed solution can further judge whether the first device meets the exit condition of exiting the target mode, thereby accurately identifying the target device to be controlled, thus effectively avoiding control conflicts caused by different modes, and improving the flexibility, intelligence and system stability of intelligent control. Moreover, when executing high-priority tasks (such as video calls, etc.) and responding to specific needs of users, the disclosed solution ensures the smoothness and efficiency of operations, thereby significantly improving the user experience.

[0111] The disclosed solution also provides a cloud server, such as Figure 7 As shown, including:

[0112] A mode determination unit 701 is used to determine mode information of a current working mode of the first device based on control data uploaded by the first device;

[0113] A device determining unit 702 is configured to determine a target device to be controlled according to mode information of a current working mode of the first device; and

[0114] The instruction sending unit 703 sends the control instruction determined based on the control data to the target device to control the target device to execute the control instruction.
