It should be noted that the following embodiments can refer to, draw on or combine with each other, and the same terms, similar features and similar implementation steps in different embodiments will not be described repeatedly.

[0021] The following describes the operating architecture involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0022] Adapted to the intelligent control of devices, the method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure may involve communication between smart devices, smart gateways, Internet of Things platforms, and clients, such as Figure 3 As shown in the figure, in the IoT system, the smart gateway plays the role of connecting devices, data transmission and security. Smart devices are connected to the smart gateway through wireless or wired means, and then communicate with the IoT platform and clients. Clients (such as mobile phone APPs) can interact with the IoT platform through the Internet to control and monitor the status of smart devices. Figure 4 As shown, in the IoT system, the data received by the IoT platform can be processed by the real-time processing engine, and the results of the real-time processing can be given; wherein, the real-time processing engine can be run in conjunction with a database, write relevant data into the database, and obtain the required data through the database.

[0023] Among them, the smart device may include drying equipment, such as a smart clothes drying machine, and may also include smart curtains, etc., but is not limited thereto. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, any smart device equipped with a light-chasing module may be regarded as a target device. The smart device may be used to execute the steps of the light-chasing control method of the device provided in the present disclosure. During the execution of the method, the smart device may communicate with the client and the Internet of Things platform.

[0024] Among them, the terminal may include any terminal running the client. The terminal (also referred to as a device) may be a smart phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, an intelligent voice interaction device (such as a smart speaker), a wearable electronic device (such as a smart watch), a vehicle-mounted terminal, a smart home appliance (such as a smart TV), an AR / VR device, etc., but is not limited to this. Optionally, the terminal may also refer to a control device configured based on a smart device, such as a remote control that can load a client. In one example, the terminal can be used to execute the light chasing control method of the device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, and during the execution of the method, it can communicate with a smart device, an Internet of Things platform, etc.

[0025] Among them, the Internet of Things Platform (IOT Platform for short) is a software platform used to connect, manage and control a large number of IoT devices. It is located in the architecture of the Internet of Things. As a middleware, it is located between the IoT device layer and the IoT gateway layer on the one hand, and between applications on the other hand. Through the IoT platform, users can achieve interconnection between devices, obtain device data in real time, and control devices.

[0026] Among them, the real-time processing engine is a software framework or system for processing real-time data streams, which can quickly process and analyze data as it is generated to meet application scenarios with extremely high real-time requirements. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, processing engines such as Apache Flink and GTS Engine can be used.

[0027] In the disclosed embodiments, light chasing is an intelligent operation. Taking a smart clothes drying machine as an example, the height or position of the drying rod assembly in the clothes drying machine can be automatically adjusted so that the clothes being dried can always be in a position with optimal light intensity, thereby improving drying efficiency and saving energy.

[0028] The following is a detailed description of the light chasing control method of the device in the embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0029] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, the method applied to the Internet of Things platform may include S101 to S102: S101. Receive attribute information related to a target device, and send a first message to a real-time processing engine based on the attribute information; the attribute information includes information for instructing the target device to start a light chasing operation.

[0030] S102. If a first light-chasing instruction is received after the real-time processing engine processes the first message, a second message is sent to the target device and / or a target client associated with the target device. The first light-chasing instruction is used to instruct the target device to suspend the light-chasing operation; the first message is used to feedback that the target device has started the light-chasing operation and is in a suspended light-chasing state.

[0031] Optionally, the attribute information may include information sent by the target client and / or the target device. For example, the user may trigger the start of the light-chasing operation through the target device, such as by voice control, physical buttons, etc.; the user may also trigger the start of the light-chasing operation through the target client associated with the target device, such as a control for starting or stopping the light-chasing operation is arranged on the interactive interface of the client, and the user may control the target device to start the light-chasing operation by triggering the control.

[0032] Among them, when the target client and / or target device responds to the operation of starting light chasing and determines that the device attribute used to characterize the light chasing state has changed, it can send attribute information to the Internet of Things platform. Optionally, the change of device attributes can be identified by the device attribute code, such as when the user uses the client to turn on the light chasing function of the clothes drying machine, the device attribute solarTraceSwitch changes from 0 to 1. When it is determined through the device attribute code that its device attribute has changed, the target client and / or target device can send attribute information to the Internet of Things platform, such as synchronizing the device's light chasing attribute solarTraceSwitch=1 to the Internet of Things platform in real time.

[0033] Optionally, when receiving attribute information related to the target device, the IoT may send a first message to the real-time processing engine based on the attribute information. Exemplarily, the IoT platform may package the changed attribute solarTraceSwitch=1 and an identifier for the target device (such as a device unique code iotid) to generate a first message and transmit it to the real-time processing engine.

[0034] Optionally, the real-time processing engine can obtain real-time weather data for processing when the preset acquisition conditions are met for the target device through the first message, and feedback the processing results to the Internet of Things platform. Among them, the first light-chasing instruction fed back is used to instruct the target device to suspend the light-chasing operation, which indicates that the real-time processing engine has correctly received the request to start the light-chasing operation, but the processing result of the first message indicates that there is no need to perform light-chasing at present or the light-chasing operation is invalid. When the Internet of Things platform receives the first light-chasing instruction, it can send a control instruction to suspend the light-chasing operation to the target device to control the target device not to perform light-chasing temporarily. In addition, when the Internet of Things platform receives the first light-chasing instruction, it can also send a second message to the target device and / or the target client associated with the target device, and the second message is used to feedback that the target device has started the light-chasing operation and is in a suspended light-chasing state. Through the second message, the user can promptly understand whether the light-chasing function has been started normally.

[0035] In one example, if Figure 5 As shown, when the Internet of Things platform sends the first message, it indicates that the light chasing function of the smart device is correctly started (at this time, the smart device has not received the light chasing control instruction, but the real-time processing engine continues to process the first message), but because the conditions required for light chasing are not met or the effect of light chasing at the current time is very poor (such as the current rainfall is greater than the preset threshold), the control device temporarily enters the suspended light chasing state, and can control the smart device to perform light chasing when it is determined later that the conditions required for light chasing are met (such as the weather turns from heavy rain to clear weather).

[0036] In a feasible embodiment, the method applied to the Internet of Things platform may also include S103: if a second light-chasing instruction is received after the real-time processing engine processes the first message, a light-chasing control instruction is sent to the target device to enable the target device to perform the light-chasing operation, and / or a third message is sent to the target client.

[0037] Among them, the third message is used to feedback that the target device is in a light chasing state; the third message includes light chasing related data sent after the target device performs the light chasing operation and / or information sent based on the second light chasing instruction.

[0038] Optionally, the third message may be sent by the IoT platform to the target client when receiving the second light-chasing instruction, so that the user can understand the state of the device performing light-chasing within a short time when the target device can perform the light-chasing operation. In order to ensure the validity of the sent message, the third message may also be sent by the IoT platform to the target device after sending the light-chasing control instruction to the target device and receiving the processing message fed back by the target device (such as the relevant data generated by performing light-chasing).

[0039] Optionally, relative to the first light-chasing instruction, the second light-chasing instruction may be sent within a short time after the real-time processing engine correctly receives the first message, which indicates that the device can perform the light-chasing operation within a short time after the user triggers the light-chasing function; the second light-chasing instruction may also be sent by the real-time processing engine after sending the first light-chasing instruction and correctly processing the first message (such as when the real-time weather data is correctly obtained), which indicates that the device does not immediately perform the light-chasing operation after the user triggers the light-chasing function, but waits for the effective light-chasing opportunity to perform the light-chasing operation.

[0040] Optionally, the first light-chasing instruction and / or the second light-chasing instruction is sent after the real-time processing engine obtains real-time weather data of the location of the target device and confirms the weather status based on the real-time weather data; the weather status corresponding to the first light-chasing instruction does not meet the preset light-chasing conditions, and the weather status corresponding to the second light-chasing instruction meets the light-chasing conditions.

[0041] Among them, the acquisition of real-time weather data includes: the real-time processing engine stores the attribute information of the target device into the database, and obtains the real-time weather data through the database when the preset acquisition conditions are met; the preset acquisition conditions include that the target device is in the state of starting the light chasing and reaches the preset data acquisition time.

[0042] Optionally, in the acquisition condition, the real-time processing engine can determine the target device in the state of starting the light chasing through the attribute information reflected in the first message, and the preset data acquisition time is related to the geographical location and / or spatial location of the target device. Exemplarily, the real-time processing engine needs to combine the real-time weather data to process the first message. In order to reduce the amount of calculation, the real-time weather data can be obtained in the time period when the light chasing is required to process the first message. For example, the sunrise time on January 1, 2024 is 06:03 and the sunset time is 17:58 (such as related to the geographical location of the target device), then the data acquisition time can be set to 06:03-17:58; it can be understood that the data acquisition time is a dynamic threshold. Among them, if the target device is located in the south and faces the east (such as the spatial location of the target device), considering that the change in its light angle only occurs in the morning, the effect of light chasing in the afternoon is poor, therefore, the data acquisition time can be further adjusted to 06:03-12:00.

[0043] Optionally, when the real-time processing engine determines that the acquisition condition is met, the real-time weather data of the location of the target device is obtained through the database, and the first message is processed. At this time, the weather status can be confirmed based on the real-time weather data. When it is determined that the weather status meets the preset light-chasing condition, the real-time processing engine can send a second light-chasing instruction to the Internet of Things platform; when it is determined that the weather status does not meet the preset light-chasing condition, the real-time processing engine can send a first light-chasing instruction to the Internet of Things platform.

[0044] Optionally, the preset light-chasing conditions include consideration of at least one of light intensity, weather conditions, time information, etc. Among them, the light intensity data can be obtained by detecting the sensor of the target device, the weather conditions can be obtained through weather information provided by a third-party platform, and the time information can include information such as the current time and the time period for performing light chasing. Exemplarily, taking weather information as an example, the weather data includes rainfall probability information. If the rainfall probability is lower than a preset value, it can be considered that the current weather conditions are suitable for light chasing and meet the light chasing conditions; such as the cloud thickness included in the weather data, if the weather data shows that the clouds are thin or clear and cloudless, it can be considered that the lighting conditions are good and meet the light chasing conditions. The disclosed embodiment does not specifically limit the light chasing conditions, which can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0045] In a feasible embodiment, sending a first message to the real-time processing engine based on the attribute information in S101 includes steps A1 to A3: Step A1: monitor the message queue and the real-time processing engine. If it is determined that the performance of the message queue and / or the real-time processing engine meets the preset index requirements, write the first message into the message queue based on the attribute information.

[0046] Step A2: transmitting the first message to the real-time processing engine through the message queue.

[0047] Step A3: Obtain a confirmation message of the transmitted first message fed back by the message queue.

[0048] Among them, the first message transmitted to the real-time processing engine carries attribute information, an identifier and / or version number generated by the Internet of Things platform for the attribute information; the version number is used to identify different information versions.

[0049] Optionally, to ensure the effectiveness and timeliness of message processing, the IoT platform can monitor the message queue and real-time processing engine in real time. The message queue can be monitored from indicators such as response time, transmission rate, queue length, and success rate of message processing. For example, for response time, monitor whether the time interval from sending a message to successfully processing the message meets a certain set threshold. For real-time processing engine monitoring, indicators such as CPU usage, memory usage, processing delay, and throughput can be used.

[0050] Optionally, the IoT platform may write the first message into the message queue based on the attribute information when it is determined that the performance of the message queue and / or the real-time processing engine meets the preset index requirements. When it is determined that the performance of the message queue and / or the real-time processing engine does not meet the preset index requirements, in order to improve the timeliness of message processing, a backup queue and / or backup processing engine may be used, and the first message may be written into the backup queue, and the first message may be transmitted to the real-time processing engine or the backup processing engine for processing through the backup queue.

[0051] Optionally, after transmitting the first message to the real-time processing engine through the message queue, the IoT platform can receive a message from the message queue to indicate whether the message transmission is successful. In the disclosed embodiment, the message queue can be designed as a message delivery mechanism to ensure the reliable transmission and processing of messages. When the first message is successfully written to the message queue, the IoT platform can receive a confirmation message returned by the message queue; when the first message is correctly transmitted to the real-time processing engine for processing, the message queue can receive a confirmation message fed back by the real-time processing engine. At this time, the IoT platform can check the status of a specific message by querying the message queue, including whether the specific message has been successfully sent, received, and processed, etc., to obtain a confirmation message indicating whether the first message has been correctly transmitted to the real-time processing engine.

[0052] Optionally, when the IoT platform generates the first message based on the attribute information, it may generate a corresponding identifier and / or version number for the attribute information. The identifier may be a unique code, and the version number may be used to identify different information versions corresponding to the same identifier. In the case where the attribute information in the first message changes, the first message is repeatedly processed, etc., the version number may be used to distinguish them, thereby ensuring the uniqueness and validity of the message processing.

[0053] In a feasible embodiment, the method applied to the Internet of Things platform further includes S104 to S105: S104: If a processing failure message sent by the real-time processing engine is received, the version number of the attribute information is updated, and the first message is retransmitted to the real-time processing engine.

[0054] S105. If the duration between the first time of receiving the processing failure message and the second time of receiving the attribute information is greater than the preset duration, a fourth message is sent to the target device and / or the target client, and the fourth message is used to feedback that the target device is being controlled to start the light chasing operation.

[0055] Optionally, in actual operation, network failure, resource limitation, real-time processing engine failure, message format error and other problems may occur, causing the real-time processing engine to fail to process the first message. At this time, the Internet of Things platform can update the version number for the attribute information and retransmit the first message with a different version number to the real-time processing engine.

[0056] Optionally, in order to promptly feedback to the user whether the activation of the light chasing function is successful, the IoT platform can determine the duration between the first time of receiving the processing failure message and the second time of receiving the attribute information (the time when the client and / or target device sends the attribute information), and compare the duration with the preset duration. If it is greater than the preset duration, it indicates that the processing time of the first message by the IoT platform and the real-time processing engine has exceeded the acceptable range perceived by the user. Since the processing status has not been fed back to the user for a long time, the IoT platform can send a fourth message to the target device and / or target client to feedback to the user that it is controlling the target device to start the light chasing operation, so as to avoid the user repeatedly initiating a request to start the light chasing operation for the target device due to not receiving feedback for a long time, which can effectively reduce the waste of resources and improve the interactive experience.

[0057] In the disclosed embodiment, the message fed back by the IoT platform to the client and the smart device can be broadcasted by voice or displayed through an interactive interface to timely remind the user of the current light-chasing status of the smart device.

[0058] Based on the same inventive concept, the embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a light-chasing control method applied to a device of a client.

[0059] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the method applied to the client includes S201: receiving a second message sent by the Internet of Things platform.

[0060] Among them, the second message is sent by the Internet of Things platform after receiving the first light-chasing instruction sent by the real-time processing engine after processing the first message, and is used to feedback that the target device has started the light-chasing operation and is in a suspended light-chasing state; the first message is sent by the Internet of Things platform to the real-time processing engine based on the received attribute information related to the target device; the attribute information includes information used to instruct the target device to start the light-chasing operation; the first light-chasing instruction is used to instruct the target device to suspend the light-chasing operation.

[0061] Optionally, after the client establishes an association with the smart device, control information related to the smart device can be sent to the client, so that the control status of related functions of the smart device can be fed back to the user in a timely manner through the client.

[0062] In a feasible embodiment, before S201 receives the second message sent by the Internet of Things platform, it also includes S200: in response to the operation of triggering the target device to start light chasing, when it is determined that the device attribute used to characterize the light chasing state has changed, sending attribute information to the Internet of Things platform.

[0063] Optionally, the user can trigger the target device to start the light chasing function and perform the light chasing operation through the client. When responding to the trigger operation, if the client determines that the device attribute used to characterize the light chasing state has changed, that is, before responding to the trigger operation, the light chasing function of the target device is in the off state, the client can send the attribute information to the IoT platform to complete the message processing through the IoT platform, the real-time processing engine and the database, realize the control of the device, and obtain feedback messages in a timely manner.
