Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of Internet of Things, and in particular to a control method and related devices for a whole-house intelligent system. Background Art

[0002] The whole-house smart system can include clients, cloud servers, local servers, and smart devices. The client can first request the server to create a scene, which can contain information such as events, conditions, and actions. After the cloud server or local server creates the scene, when it detects that an event has occurred and the conditions are met, it executes an action, such as sending a control instruction to the smart device. After receiving the control instruction, the smart device executes the control instruction to achieve intelligent control. Among them, the whole-house smart system can also be called a smart life system, referred to as whole-house intelligence or smart life.

[0003] However, the above-mentioned whole-house smart system has the following problems: when the local server fails, the scene created on the local server or cloud server cannot be realized, or when the network between the cloud server and the local server fails, the scene created on the cloud server cannot be realized. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present application provides a control method and related devices for a whole-house intelligent system, which are used to solve the problem that the scenes created in the prior art cannot be realized.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present application provides a control method for a whole-house intelligent system, wherein the whole-house intelligent system includes a client, a monitoring device, multiple intelligent devices and M control devices, and the monitoring device can monitor the working status of the M control devices, where M is an integer greater than 1.

[0006] The method includes: a first control device receives a scene creation request from the client, the first control device is one of the M control devices, the scene creation request includes first scene information, and the first scene information includes multiple action information; the first control device generates N copy scene information according to the scene creation request, N is a positive integer less than or equal to M, each of the N copy scene information includes at least one action information among the multiple action information, the N copy scene information corresponds to N control devices one by one, and the control device corresponding to each copy scene information in the N copy scene information can execute the action indicated by each action information contained in each copy scene information; the first control device sends the copy scene information corresponding to each control device among the N control devices except the first control device; the first control device sends first indication information to the monitoring device, and the first indication information is used to indicate that there is an association relationship between the N copy scene information and an association relationship between the N control devices and the N copy scene information.

[0007] In some embodiments, the first control device may be Figure 4 The cloud shown.

[0008] In other embodiments, the first control device may be Figure 4 Whole house host shown.

[0009] As an example, assume that the first scene information can include multiple action information, which are used to indicate multiple actions that need to be performed, such as opening the smart door lock, the smart speaker voice broadcasting welcome home, turning on the smart lights, and turning on the smart air conditioner.

[0010] The first control device generates three copy scene information according to the ability of each control device to execute multiple actions indicated by multiple action information: copy scene information 1, copy scene information 2 and copy scene information 3. Among them, copy scene information 1 can correspond to the cloud, copy scene information 2 can correspond to the whole house host, and copy scene information 3 can correspond to the Bluetooth gateway. Then the cloud can execute the action indicated by the action information in copy scene information 1, the whole house host can execute the action indicated by the action information in copy scene information 2, and the Bluetooth gateway can execute the action indicated by the action information in copy scene information 3.

[0011] In this method, multiple copies of scene information can be created based on a scene creation request, and these multiple copies of scene information can be deployed in multiple control devices respectively. In this way, when a control device fails, the linkage requirements between smart devices can be realized through other control devices based on the copy scene information.

[0012] In some possible implementations, the first scene information includes marking information, and the marking information is used to indicate key action information among the multiple action information; wherein the action information contained in each copy of the scene information is the key action information indicated by the marking information.

[0013] In this method, the key actions indicated by the multiple action information can be the basic needs set by the user, so that each control device can execute the key actions indicated by the multiple action information, that is, each control device can be used to meet the basic needs of the user.

[0014] In some possible implementations, the method also includes: the first control device determines the priority of each copy scene information, and the priority of each copy scene information is used to determine the activation order of each copy scene information among the N copy scene information; the first control device sends the priority of each copy scene information to the monitoring device.

[0015] In this method, the copy scene information that needs to be activated can be determined based on the priority of each copy scene information, and then the corresponding action can be performed according to the control device corresponding to the copy scene information that needs to be activated.

[0016] In some possible implementations, the first control device determines the priority of each copy scene information including: determining the priority of each copy scene information based on the ability of the control device corresponding to each copy scene information to execute the multiple actions indicated by the multiple action information, the higher the ability of the control device corresponding to each copy scene information to execute the multiple actions indicated by the multiple action information, the higher the priority of each copy scene information.

[0017] In this method, the higher the priority of the replica scene information, the stronger the ability of the control device corresponding to the replica scene information to execute actions. In this way, the replica scene information can be activated based on the order of execution ability from high to low, so that the activated replica scene information is always the replica scene information with the highest priority among the multiple replica scene information corresponding to the multiple control devices in normal states, thereby improving the user experience.

[0018] In some possible implementations, the first control device sends the first indication information to the monitoring device, including: when the N control devices include the first control device, and the duration of the corresponding copy scene information configured by the first control device is less than the duration of the corresponding copy scene information configured by any control device among the N control devices, before the first control device sends the copy scene information corresponding to each control device to each control device, the first control device sends the first indication information to the monitoring device; and / or, after the first control device sends the copy scene information corresponding to the second control device to the second control device among the N control devices, and before the first control device sends the copy scene information corresponding to each third control device to each third control device among the N control devices, the first control device sends the first indication information to the monitoring device, and the duration of the corresponding copy scene information configured by the second control device is less than the duration of the corresponding copy scene information configured by each third control device.

[0019] As an example, assuming that the first control device is in the cloud, the configuration duration of the copy scene information 1 is < the configuration duration of the copy scene information 2 is < the configuration duration of the copy scene information 3 is < the configuration duration of the copy scene information 4.

[0020] Before the cloud sends the copy scene information to the whole house host, Bluetooth gateway and mesh device, it can first send the first indication information 1 to the monitoring device. The first indication information 1 is used to indicate the association relationship between the cloud and the copy scene information 1.

[0021] Optionally, after the cloud sends the first indication information 1 to the monitoring device, it may also send the copy scene information 2 to the whole house host. In this example, the second control device may include the whole house host.

[0022] After the cloud sends the copy scene information 2 to the whole-house host and before sending the copy scene information 3 to the Bluetooth gateway, it can send the first indication information 2 to the monitoring device, and the first indication information 2 is used to indicate the association relationship between the whole-house host and the copy scene information 2.

[0023] In this example, the third control device may include a Bluetooth gateway.

[0024] After the cloud sends the copy scene information 3 to the Bluetooth gateway, it can send the first indication information 3 to the monitoring device, where the first indication information 3 is used to indicate the association relationship between the Bluetooth gateway and the copy scene information 3.

[0025] As another example, assuming that the first control device is the whole-house host, the configuration duration of copy scene information 2 < the configuration duration of copy scene information 1 < the configuration duration of copy scene information 3 < the configuration duration of copy scene information 4.

[0026] In this example, before the whole-house host sends the copy scene information to the cloud, Bluetooth gateway and mesh device, it can first send the first indication information 1 to the monitoring device. The first indication information 1 is used to indicate the association relationship between the whole-house host and the copy scene information 2.

[0027] Optionally, after the whole-house host sends the first indication information 1 to the monitoring device, it may also send the copy scene information 1 to the cloud. In this example, the second control device may include the cloud.

[0028] After the whole-house host sends the copy scene information 1 to the cloud and before sending the copy scene information 3 to the Bluetooth gateway, it can send the first indication information 2 to the monitoring device, and the first indication information 2 is used to indicate the association relationship between the cloud and the copy scene information 1.

[0029] In this example, the third control device may include a Bluetooth gateway.

[0030] In this method, the first control device can send the control device corresponding to the copy scene information with a short configuration time to the monitoring device before deploying the copy scene information with a long configuration time. In this way, the copy scene information with a long configuration time can be deployed in the process of executing the action indicated by the action information based on the copy scene information with a short configuration time, avoiding the problem of too long response time of the smart device due to too long deployment time of the copy scene information when the copy scene information is used to execute the action after all N copy scene information are successfully deployed.

[0031] In some possible implementations, the first action information in the first scene information includes second scene information, the second scene information includes at least one action information, wherein the N copy scene information includes copy scene information of the second scene information.

[0032] In the method, the copy scene information of the second scene information may include one or more. When the second copy scene information includes one, the N copy scene information may be as follows: Fig.15 When the second copy scene information includes multiple copies, the N copies of scene information can be as follows: Fig.15 shown.

[0033] The N copy scene information includes the copy scene information of the second scene information, so that the control device corresponding to each copy scene information in the N copy scene information can perform corresponding actions on the multiple action information in each copy scene information.

[0034] In some possible implementations, the second action information in the action information included in the second scene information includes third scene information, wherein the N copy scene information includes copy scene information of the third scene information.

[0035] As an example, N copies of scene information can be as follows Fig.17 shown.

[0036] The N copy scene information includes the copy scene information of the second scene information, so that the control device corresponding to each copy scene information in the N copy scene information can perform corresponding actions on the multiple action information in each copy scene information.

[0037] In some possible implementations, the first control device generates a piece of copy scene information, where the piece of copy scene information is the copy scene information with the lowest priority among the N pieces of copy scene information.

[0038] In the method, the copy scene information includes action information in the copy scene information of the third scene information, which can avoid the situation where the action information of the copy scene information of the third scene information cannot be executed due to a failure of the control device corresponding to the copy scene information of the second scene information or the scene engine in the control device, thereby avoiding the situation where the action information of the copy scene information of the first scene information cannot be executed.

[0039] In the second aspect, the present application provides a control method for a whole-house intelligent system, wherein the whole-house intelligent system includes a client, a monitoring device, multiple intelligent devices and M control devices, and the monitoring device can monitor the working status of the M control devices, where M is a positive integer greater than 1. The method includes: the monitoring device receives first indication information from a first control device, the first indication information is used to indicate that there is an association relationship between N copy scene information and an association relationship between N control devices and the N copy scene information, the first control device is one of the N control devices, N is a positive integer less than or equal to M, each of the N copy scene information includes at least one action information among multiple action information in the first scene information, the N copy scene information corresponds to the N control devices one by one, and the control device corresponding to each copy scene information in the N copy scene information can execute the action indicated by each action information contained in each copy scene information; when the monitoring device detects that the working state of the current control device is abnormal, the monitoring device sends first activation indication information to the backup control device according to the first indication information, the current control device is one of the N control devices, and the backup control device is one of the N control devices with a normal working state, and the first activation indication information is used to instruct the backup control device to activate the copy scene information corresponding to the backup control device.

[0040] In the method, the current control device may be one of the N control devices. The activation order of the copy scene information corresponding to the current control device is higher than the activation order of the copy scene information corresponding to the standby control device.

[0041] As an example, the current control device can be the cloud, and the backup control device can be the whole-house host.

[0042] In this method, when the current control device is in an abnormal state, the monitoring device can send activation instruction information to the copy scene information of the backup control device to avoid the situation where multiple smart devices cannot be linked due to the abnormal state of the current control device.

[0043] In some possible implementations, the first scene information includes marking information, and the marking information is used to indicate key action information among the multiple action information; wherein the action information contained in each copy of the scene information is the key action information indicated by the marking information.

[0044] In some possible implementations, the method also includes: the monitoring device receives the priority of each copy scene information, and the priority of each copy scene information is used to determine the activation order of each copy scene information among the N copy scene information; wherein, the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the current control device is higher than the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the backup control device, and the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the backup control device is higher than the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to any one of the N control devices except the current control device and the backup control device.

[0045] In some possible implementations, the higher the ability of the control device corresponding to each copy scene information to execute the multiple actions indicated by the multiple action information, the higher the priority of each copy scene information.

[0046] In some possible implementations, the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the current control device is the highest priority among the N copy scene information.

[0047] In some possible implementations, the method also includes: when the monitoring device detects that the current control device is in normal working status, it sends a deactivation indication message to the backup control device, and sends a second activation indication message to the current control device, wherein the second activation indication message is used to instruct the current control device to activate the copy scene information corresponding to the current control device, and the deactivation indication message is used to instruct the backup control device to deactivate the copy scene information corresponding to the backup control device.

[0048] In this method, when the working state of the current control device returns to normal, the monitoring device can continue to send activation indication information to the current control device, so that the activated copy scene information is always the copy scene information with the highest priority among the multiple copy scene information corresponding to multiple control devices in normal states, thereby improving the user experience.

[0049] In the third aspect, the present application provides a control method for a whole-house intelligent system, wherein the whole-house intelligent system includes a client, a monitoring device, multiple intelligent devices and M control devices, and the monitoring device can monitor the working status of the multiple control devices, and M is a positive integer greater than 1.

[0050] The method includes: the target control device receives activation indication information from the monitoring device, the activation indication information is used to instruct the target control device to activate the copy scene information corresponding to the target control device, and the copy information includes action information; in response to the activation indication information, the target control device controls at least one smart device among the multiple smart devices to perform the action indicated by the action information.

[0051] In the method, the control device that receives the activation instruction information may be referred to as a target control device. The target control device may be any one of the N control devices.

[0052] In some possible implementations, the method further includes: the target control device receiving deactivation indication information from the monitoring device, where the deactivation indication information is used to instruct the target control device to deactivate scene information corresponding to the target control device.

[0084] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0085] In order to facilitate the clear description of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, in the embodiments of the present application, the words "first" and "second" are used to distinguish the same items or similar items with substantially the same functions and effects. For example, the first information and the second information are only used to distinguish different information, and their order is not limited. Those skilled in the art can understand that the words "first" and "second" do not limit the quantity and execution order, and the words "first" and "second" do not necessarily limit them to be different.

[0086] In the embodiments of the present application, "at least one" refers to one or more, and "more than one" refers to two or more. "And / or" describes the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone, where A and B can be singular or plural. The character " / " generally indicates that the previous and next associated objects are in an "or" relationship. "At least one of the following" or similar expressions refers to any combination of these items, including any combination of single or plural items. For example, at least one of a, b, or c can represent: a, b, c; a and b; a and c; b and c; or a and b and c. Among them, a, b, c can be single or multiple.

[0087] This application can be applied to Figure 1 In the smart home scenario shown in Figure 1 As shown, a smart home can include smart devices such as smart TVs, smart speakers, smart projectors, smart refrigerators, smart routers, smart door locks, smart air conditioners and smart lights.

[0088] In the field of smart home, multiple smart devices need to be linked to realize the control requirements of multiple smart devices. For example, when the temperature is higher than 30℃, turn on the air conditioner for cooling, when the outdoor wind speed is greater than level 3, close the windows, etc.

[0089] At present, linkage between multiple smart devices can be achieved based on the whole-house smart system. Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of a whole-house intelligent system architecture, such as Figure 2 As shown, the whole-house smart system may include: a client, a cloud, a whole-house host and at least one slave gateway.

[0090] Among them, the client can communicate with the cloud or the whole-house host, the whole-house host can be connected to at least one slave gateway and schedule the at least one slave gateway, and each of the at least one slave gateway can be connected to at least one smart device and control the at least one smart device.

[0091] As an example, the at least one slave gateway may include a programmable logic controller (PLC) gateway, a Bluetooth gateway, a Zigbee gateway, etc. Among them, the PLC gateway can be connected to and control a PLC device, the Bluetooth gateway can be connected to and control a Bluetooth device, and the Zigbee gateway can be connected to and control a Zigbee device.

[0092] Optionally, the whole house host can also be connected to at least one smart device and control the at least one smart device. As an example, the whole house host can be connected to a wireless fidelity (WiFi) device and control the WiFi device.

[0093] In this embodiment, the cloud and the whole house host can be used to create scenes. The user can input a scene creation request on the client, and the client sends a scene creation request to the cloud or the whole house host based on the scene creation request. After the cloud or the whole house host receives the scene creation request, it creates a scene based on the scene creation request instruction.

[0094] As an example, the client may be deployed in a terminal device used by a user.

[0095] Optionally, when the terminal device used by the user is connected to the whole-house host through a router, or when the terminal device used by the user and the whole-house host are in the same local area network, the client can send a scene creation request to the whole-house host.

[0096] Optionally, when the terminal device used by the user is in a different local area network from the whole-house host, the client can send a scene creation request to the cloud.

[0097] As another example, the client can be deployed in the whole house central control screen. The whole house central control screen and the whole house host can be connected through a router, that is, the whole house central control screen and the whole house host are in the same local area network, and the client can send a scene creation request to the whole house host. At present, the scene can be pre-installed in advance by the installation and maintenance personnel or created in advance by the user. In some examples, the created scene can be displayed in some applications (application, App), such as smart life. In other examples, the created scene can also be displayed on the whole house central control screen. Users can manage scenes in the App or the whole house central control screen and click to trigger execution.

[0098] A scene can be composed of a trigger event, a condition, and an action. The trigger event is the starting point of the entire scene, which is an instantaneous state change. When this change occurs, the execution of the entire scene process begins.

[0099] Trigger events can include manual trigger events and automatic trigger events. Manual trigger events refer to users clicking on scene cards on the APP, triggering by voice, or clicking on buttons on the whole house central control screen. Automatic trigger events refer to changes in the status of smart devices or environments.

[0100] The effective condition is the condition that needs to be met to execute the action. When the trigger event meets the effective condition, the corresponding action can be executed. The trigger event and the effective condition can form the trigger of the scene.

[0101] The execution action is the action that the smart device needs to perform, for example, turning on the smart air conditioner, turning on the smart light, etc.

[0102] The created scene can be associated with a mode, and one scene can be created for each mode.

[0103] As an example, in the home mode, the created scenes may include: opening of the smart door lock, voice broadcast of welcome home by the smart speaker, turning on of the smart light, turning on of the smart air conditioner, etc. Among them, opening of the smart door lock may be a triggering event of the scene.

[0104] As another example, in the away mode, the created scenes may include: closing the smart door lock, closing the smart light, closing the smart air conditioner, etc. Among them, closing the smart door lock may be a triggering event for the scene.

[0105] In this embodiment, the scene engine can be deployed on both the cloud and the whole-house host.

[0106] After creating a scene in the cloud, you can deploy the created scene to the scene engine in the cloud. The scene engine in the cloud can call on a variety of Internet resources, such as music playback and weather query of member (VIP) resources.

[0107] After the whole-house host creates a scene, it can deploy the created scene to the whole-house host's scene engine. The whole-house host's scene engine can link all devices in the whole house, including WiFi devices, Bluetooth devices, etc.

[0108] Optionally, a scene engine can also be deployed in the slave gateway. In some examples, after the cloud or the whole house host creates a scene, the created scene can be deployed to the scene engine of the slave gateway. The scene engine of the slave gateway can link the devices under this gateway, which is easy to modify and update quickly.

[0109] Optionally, after creating a scene in the cloud or in the whole house, the created scene can also be deployed to the mesh network (mesh) device. Mesh devices can also execute scenes through mesh networking, but it is not easy to modify, creation is prone to failure, and deployment space is limited.

[0110] In this embodiment, the cloud, the whole-house host and the slave gateway can be collectively referred to as control devices, and PLC devices, Bluetooth devices, zigbee devices and WiFi devices can be collectively referred to as execution devices.

[0111] In this application, the cloud can also be called a cloud server, the whole house host and at least one slave gateway can be a local server, and both the cloud server and the local server can be called control devices.

[0112] Figure 3 This is another schematic diagram of the whole house intelligent system architecture. Figure 3 As shown, the whole-house smart system may include: a cloud, a central gateway, a backup hub, at least one slave gateway, a blind gateway, a router and a WiFi device.

[0113] Among them, the central gateway can be equivalent to Figure 2 The whole-house host, central gateway and WiFi device can establish a communication connection through the router.

[0114] The backup hub is a backup hub gateway for the hub gateway, and the backup hub can also establish a communication connection with the WiFi device. When the hub gateway cannot work normally, the WiFi device can be controlled based on the backup hub. When the hub gateway works normally, the backup hub does not assume the control function of the WiFi device.

[0115] Each of the at least one slave gateway is a gateway that can be scheduled by the central gateway. The central gateway can control the smart devices under each slave gateway through each slave gateway to realize scene execution.

[0116] In this embodiment, the at least one slave gateway may include: Figure 2 The PLC gateway, Bluetooth gateway and ZigBee gateway shown in the figure.

[0117] As an example, assuming that the central gateway needs to control a Bluetooth device, it can first send control information to the Bluetooth gateway so that the Bluetooth gateway can control the Bluetooth device based on the control information.

[0118] The blind gateway does not accept the scheduling of the central gateway. It can communicate with the cloud and is responsible for connecting some smart devices to the cloud and realizing the linkage of these smart devices through the source end.

[0119] In this embodiment, the system can deploy scenes in the central gateway or cloud. As an example, scenes such as sunrise and sunset, outdoor weather, working days and holidays, notifications to terminal devices, switches and execution scenes (nested), WiFi device events, voice control, door locks, and Rubik's Cube capabilities are deployed in the cloud.

[0120] exist Figure 2 or Figure 3 In the whole-house smart system shown, it is often the case that a scene is created successfully, but multiple smart devices in the scene cannot be linked.

[0121] This is because the existing whole-house smart system creates a scene based on a scene creation request, and a scene is deployed in the scene engine of a control device. For example, after the scene is created in the cloud, the created scene can be deployed in the scene engine of the cloud. For another example, after the whole-house host creates a scene, the created scene can be deployed in the scene engine of the whole-house host.

[0122] In this way, when an abnormality occurs in the control device or in the scene engine in the control device, the scene deployed in the scene engine of the control device cannot be realized, that is, multiple smart devices cannot be linked.

[0123] To this end, the present application provides a technical solution that can solve the problem in the prior art that multiple smart devices cannot be linked together.

[0124] In the technical solution provided in the present application, after the cloud or the whole-house host receives a scene creation request, it can generate multiple copy scene information based on the scene creation request, and deploy these multiple copy scene information to multiple control devices respectively.

[0125] In this method, multiple copies of scene information can be created based on a scene creation request, and these multiple copies of scene information can be deployed in multiple control devices respectively. In this way, when a control device fails, the linkage requirements between smart devices can be realized through other control devices based on the copy scene information.

[0126] Among them, each copy scene information in the multiple copy scene information includes a triggering event, an effective condition and an execution action.

[0127] The multiple copy scene information correspond one-to-one to the multiple control devices, and each copy scene information in the multiple copy scene information can be deployed to the corresponding control device.

[0128] Each control device has different execution capabilities for executing actions. Each copy scene information in the plurality of copy scene information can be generated based on the execution capability of the control device corresponding to each copy scene information.

[0129] Each of the multiple copy scene information also has a priority, and the priority of each copy scene information is used to determine the activation order of each copy scene information in the multiple copy scene information. The higher the ability of the control device corresponding to the copy scene information to execute an action is, the higher the priority of the copy scene information is.

[0130] In addition, the whole-house smart system of the present application may also include a monitoring device, in which a monitoring process may be deployed.

[0131] The cloud or whole-house host can send indication information to the monitoring device, where the indication information is used to indicate that there is an association relationship between multiple copy scene information, and an association relationship between multiple control devices and multiple copy scene information.

[0132] Optionally, the cloud or whole-house host can also send the priority of each copy scene information in multiple copy scene information to the monitoring device. The monitoring device can confirm whether the state of each control device is abnormal based on the monitoring process, and determine the control device that needs to be activated based on the state of each control device and the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to each control device, and activate the control device that needs to be activated.

[0133] Next, this application will combine Figures 4 to 23 , the solution of this application is introduced in detail.

[0134] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the whole-house intelligent system architecture provided by this application. Figure 4 As shown, the whole-house smart system may include a client, M control devices, multiple smart devices and monitoring devices, where M is an integer greater than 1.

[0135] The M control devices may include a cloud, a whole-house host, and at least one slave gateway, and each of the M control devices may be deployed with a scene engine. The structure and connection relationship of the client, cloud, whole-house host, at least one slave gateway, and multiple smart devices can refer to Figure 2 The embodiments shown will not be described in detail here.

[0136] In this embodiment, after receiving the scene creation request from the client, the cloud or the whole-house host can generate multiple copies of scene information based on the scene creation request, and deploy the multiple copies of scene information to multiple control devices. The multiple control devices are control devices among the M control devices.

[0137] Optionally, the scene creation request includes first scene information, which can be used to create a scene, and the first scene information includes multiple action information.

[0138] Each of the plurality of copy scene information includes a trigger event, a validation condition and an execution action. The trigger event and the validation condition of each of the plurality of copy scene information are the same, and the execution action of each copy scene information may be different.

[0139] The multiple copy scene information correspond one-to-one to the multiple control devices, and each copy scene information in the multiple copy scene information can be deployed to the corresponding control device.

[0140] In this embodiment, deploying each copy scene information to the corresponding control device can be understood as sending each copy scene information to the control device corresponding to each copy scene information, and the control device corresponding to each copy scene information deploys each copy scene information to the scene engine of the control device.

[0141] The ability of each of the multiple control devices to perform the actions indicated by the multiple action information may be different. The ability of the control device to perform the actions indicated by the multiple action information may be used to indicate the ability of the control device to control the smart device to perform the actions indicated by the multiple action information, and the ability to perform the actions indicated by the multiple action information may be associated with the number of actions indicated by the multiple action information, the ability to perform the actions indicated by the multiple action information, and the speed of performing the actions indicated by the multiple action information.

[0142] Each of the multiple copy scene information may be generated based on the ability of the control device corresponding to each copy scene information to execute the actions indicated by the multiple action information.

[0143] Each of the multiple copy scene information also has a priority. The priority of each copy scene information can be determined based on the ability of the control device corresponding to each copy scene information to execute the actions indicated by multiple action information. The priority of each copy scene information is used to determine the activation order of each copy scene information among the multiple copy scene information.

[0144] As an example, assuming that the multiple control devices include control device 1 and control device 2, when the number of actions indicated by the multiple action information executed by control device 1 is greater than that of control device 2, or the execution capability of control device 1 to execute the actions indicated by the multiple action information is higher than that of control device 2, or the execution speed of control device 1 to execute the actions indicated by the multiple action information is higher than that of control device 2, the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to control device 1 is higher than the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to control device 2.

[0145] A monitoring process can be deployed in the monitoring device, and the monitoring device can communicate with each of the M control devices, so that the monitoring process of the monitoring device can establish a heartbeat connection with the scene engine of each control device to detect the working status of each control device (or detect the working status of the scene engine of each control device), and activate or deactivate the copy scene information deployed by the scene engine of each control device based on the working status of each control device (or the working status of the scene engine of each control device).

[0146] The first control device among the multiple control devices can send indication information to the monitoring device, where the indication information is used to indicate that there is an association relationship between the multiple copy scene information and an association relationship between the multiple copy scene information and the multiple control devices.

[0147] Optionally, the first control device may also send the priority of each copy of the scene information in the multiple copies of the scene information to the monitoring device.

[0148] Optionally, the association relationship between the multiple copy scene information may be associated with the priority of each copy scene information in the multiple copy scene information. As an example, the association relationship between the multiple copy scene information may include the activation order of each copy scene information in the multiple copy scene information.

[0149] During the scene usage process, the monitoring device can monitor the status of each control device in multiple control devices based on the monitoring process, and then determine the copy scene information that needs to be activated based on the status of each control device, indication information and the priority of each copy scene information.

[0150] It is understandable that the cloud or the whole-house host may receive multiple scene creation requests, each of which includes the first scene information. At least one action information in the multiple action information included in the first scene information of different scene creation requests is different.

[0151] Figure 5 Another schematic diagram of the whole-house smart system architecture provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 5 In the system, the Bluetooth gateway can control smart door locks and smart lights, and the cloud and the whole house host can control smart door locks, smart lights, smart speakers and smart air conditioners.

[0152] Figure 6 This is a flow chart of a control method for a whole-house intelligent system provided in this application. Figure 6 As shown, the method may include S601 to S604.

[0153] In this embodiment, the whole house intelligent system can be as follows Figure 4 The whole house smart system shown.

[0154] In this embodiment, the method may be applied to the first control device. For example, the method may be implemented by the first control device, or may be implemented by a chip in the first control device, or may be implemented by an application or service in the first control device.

[0155] In some embodiments, the first control device may be Figure 4 The cloud shown.

[0156] In other embodiments, the first control device may be Figure 4 Whole house host shown.

[0157] S601, a first control device receives a scene creation request from a client, the first control device is one of M control devices, the scene creation request includes first scene information, the first scene information includes multiple action information, and M is an integer greater than 1.

[0158] In this embodiment, the user may input a scene creation request on the client. After receiving the scene creation request input by the user, the client may send the scene creation request to the first control device.

[0159] As an example, the client may be deployed in a terminal device used by a user.

[0160] As another example, the client can be deployed in the central control screen throughout the house.

[0161] The user may input multiple scene creation requests on the client, and each of the multiple scene creation requests may correspond to a working mode.

[0162] Figure 7 A schematic diagram of a first user interface of a terminal device provided in one embodiment of the present application. Figure 7 As shown, in this interface, the smart home can include multiple working modes, such as away mode, home mode and night mode.

[0163] In this example, the user can create a leaving scene by clicking the Create Scene button in the leaving mode. The user can create a returning scene by clicking the Create Scene button in the returning mode. The user can create a night scene by clicking the Create Scene button in the night mode.

[0164] Optionally, the user can also add other working modes by clicking the custom button or the "+" button, and create corresponding scenes based on the added working modes.

[0165] Taking the home mode as an example, when the user clicks the create scene button of the home mode, the terminal device can display the following Figure 8 The second user interface shown in FIG. 1 may include a date button and a plurality of action buttons.

[0166] In this example, the user can input the time information of the home mode by clicking the date button, and the time information can be used to indicate the time of executing the scene of the home mode.

[0167] In addition, the user can input multiple action information of the scene of the home mode by clicking multiple action buttons. The multiple action buttons correspond to the multiple action information one by one, and each action button in the multiple action buttons is used by the user to input corresponding action information.

[0168] As an example, when the user clicks the button of action 1, the terminal device may display the following Fig. 9 The third user interface shown in the figure includes an add smart device button, a smart device action button, a key action selection box and a confirm button.

[0169] In this example, the user can click to add a smart device button to input the execution device corresponding to action 1, and the user can input the action that the execution device needs to execute by clicking the smart device action button.

[0170] The client can determine whether the user sets action 1 as a key action through the key action selection box.

[0171] like Fig. 9 As shown in (a) in FIG. 1 , when the user clicks the key action selection box, a “√” mark may appear in the key action selection box, so that the client can determine that the user sets action 1 as the key action.

[0172] like Fig. 9 As shown in (b), the user did not click the key action selection box, and there is no "√" mark in the key action selection box, so the client can determine that the user set action 1 as a non-key action.

[0173] In this example, after the user clicks the OK button, the terminal device can return to the following Figure 8 The second user interface is shown.

[0174] After the user enters the date and action, they can click Figure 8 After receiving the instruction of the user clicking create, the client can send a scene creation request to the first control device.

[0175] Taking the home mode as an example, the scene creation request may include the first scene information, and the first scene information may include multiple action information. The multiple action information is used to indicate multiple actions that need to be performed, such as opening the smart door lock, the smart speaker voice broadcasting welcome home, turning on the smart lights, and turning on the smart air conditioner.

[0176] Optionally, the first scene information may also include the execution order of multiple actions indicated by the multiple action information.

[0177] Assuming that the user sets action 1 to open the smart door lock, action 2 to broadcast welcome home through the smart speaker voice, action 3 to turn on the smart lights, and action 4 to turn on the smart air conditioner, the execution order of the multiple actions indicated by these multiple action information is: open the smart door lock, broadcast welcome home through the smart speaker voice, turn on the smart lights, and turn on the smart air conditioner.

[0178] In this example, action 1 may be a triggering event for the scene.

[0179] Optionally, the first scene information may further include marking information, where the marking information is used to indicate key action information among the multiple action information.

[0180] Assuming that the user clicks the key action selection box when inputting action 1, action 1 includes the marking information, indicating that opening the smart door lock is a key action.

[0181] Assuming that the user also clicks the key action selection box when inputting action 3, action 3 also includes the marking information, indicating that turning on the smart light is also a key action.

[0182] S602, the first control device generates N copy scene information according to the scene creation request, N is a positive integer less than or equal to M, each of the N copy scene information includes at least one action information among multiple action information, the N copy scene information corresponds one-to-one to N control devices, and the control device corresponding to each copy scene information in the N copy scene information can execute the action indicated by each action information contained in each copy scene information.

[0183] In this embodiment, the method for the first control device to generate N copy scene information based on a scene creation request may include: determining N control devices from M control devices, each of the N control devices being capable of executing at least one action information among multiple action information in the first scene information; determining the ability of each of the N control devices to execute multiple actions indicated by the multiple action information; and generating copy scene information corresponding to each control device based on the ability of each control device to execute multiple actions indicated by the multiple action information.

[0184] Taking the home mode as an example, assuming that the first scene information includes four action information: the smart door lock is opened, the smart speaker voice broadcasts welcome home, the smart lights are turned on, and the smart air conditioner is turned on. The smart devices involved in the first scene information include smart door locks, smart lights, smart speakers, and smart air conditioners.

[0185] by Figure 5For example, the Bluetooth gateway has the ability to control the opening of smart door locks and smart lights, and the cloud or whole-house host has the ability to open smart door locks, broadcast welcome home through the smart speaker, turn on smart lights and smart air conditioners, so the N control devices include the cloud, whole-house host and Bluetooth gateway.

[0186] In this example, the first control device can be a cloud or whole-house host.

[0187] Assume that the first control device generates three replica scene information according to the ability of each control device to execute multiple actions indicated by multiple action information: replica scene information 1, replica scene information 2, and replica scene information 3. Among them, replica scene information 1 can correspond to the cloud, replica scene information 2 can correspond to the whole house host, and replica scene information 3 can correspond to the Bluetooth gateway. Then the cloud can execute the action indicated by the action information in replica scene information 1, the whole house host can execute the action indicated by the action information in replica scene information 2, and the Bluetooth gateway can execute the action indicated by the action information in replica scene information 3.

[0188] In this example, the Bluetooth gateway can control smart door locks and smart lights, but cannot control smart speakers and smart air conditioners, so the action information in the copy scene information 3 can include opening the smart door lock and turning on the smart light.

[0189] The cloud and the whole-house host can control smart door locks, smart lights, smart speakers and smart air conditioners, so the action information in copy scene information 1 and copy scene information 2 can include smart door locks opening, smart speakers voice broadcasting welcome home, smart lights turning on and smart air conditioners turning on.

[0190] Optionally, the smart door lock and the smart light can also interact through mesh networking. In this case, the smart door lock and the smart light can be mesh devices. Accordingly, the first control device can also generate copy scene information 4, which can be deployed to the smart door lock and the smart light. The action information in the copy scene information 4 can include opening the smart door lock and turning on the smart light.

[0191] In this embodiment, the action information included in each piece of N copy scene information may be key action information indicated by the marking information.

[0192] As an example, assuming that opening the smart door lock and turning on the smart light are key action information, the actions indicated by the action information in each of the N copy scene information include opening the smart door lock and turning on the smart light.

[0193] The key actions indicated by the multiple action information may be basic requirements set by the user, so that each control device may execute the key actions indicated by the multiple action information, that is, each control device may be used to meet the basic requirements of the user.

[0194] Optionally, the first control device may also determine a priority of each copy scene information in the N copy scene information, and the priority of each copy scene information is used to determine an activation order of each copy scene information in the N copy scene information.

[0195] Optionally, the first control information may determine the priority of each copy scene information based on the ability of the control device corresponding to each copy scene information to execute multiple actions indicated by the multiple action information.

[0196] Based on the priority of each copy scene information, the copy scene information that needs to be activated can be determined, and then the corresponding action can be performed according to the control device corresponding to the copy scene information that needs to be activated.

[0197] The higher the ability of the control device corresponding to each copy scene information in the N copy scene information to execute multiple actions indicated by multiple action information, the higher the priority of each copy scene information.

[0198] The ability of the control device to perform multiple actions indicated by multiple action information can be associated with the number of multiple actions indicated by the multiple action information performed by the control device, the execution capability of the control device to perform multiple actions indicated by the multiple action information, or the execution speed of the control device to perform multiple actions indicated by the multiple action information.

[0199] As a first example, when playing music or videos, if a control device can use a membership to obtain better sound quality or use paid content, the control device will have a stronger ability to play music or videos.

[0200] As a second example, when using a weather query service, since the accuracy of service predictions provided by different developers is different, the response time is different. If a control device provides a higher accuracy of service predictions than other control devices, or the response time of service predictions provided by the control device is shorter than other control devices, then the control device has a strong ability to query weather services.

[0201] As a third example, assuming that multiple control devices can perform the same action, a control device with a short response time or strong action stability has greater capability.

[0202] As a fourth example, assuming that the number of actions that a control device can perform is greater than the number of actions that other control devices can perform, the control device has a stronger ability to perform multiple actions indicated by multiple action information.

[0203] by Figure 5 For example, the cloud and whole-house host can control smart door locks, smart lights, smart speakers and smart air conditioners, and the Bluetooth gateway and mesh devices can control smart door locks and smart lights. The number of action information that can be executed by the cloud and whole-house host is greater than the number of action information that can be executed by the Bluetooth gateway. Then the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the cloud and whole-house host is higher than the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the Bluetooth gateway and mesh devices.

[0204] For the smart speaker voice broadcast "Welcome home", when connected to the Internet, the cloud can verify the user's music membership, so better voice broadcast content can be used through the cloud, such as the high sound quality resolution of the cloud voice broadcast. Therefore, the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the cloud is higher than the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the whole house host.

[0205] In addition, the deployment process of the replica scene information corresponding to the mesh device is more complicated than the deployment process of the replica scene information corresponding to the Bluetooth gateway, so the priority of the replica scene information corresponding to the Bluetooth gateway is higher than the priority of the replica scene information corresponding to the mesh device.

[0206] In this embodiment, the higher the priority of the replica scene information, the stronger the ability of the control device corresponding to the replica scene information to execute actions. In this way, the replica scene information can be activated based on the order of the ability to execute actions from high to low, so that the activated replica scene information is always the replica scene information with the highest priority among the multiple replica scene information corresponding to the multiple control devices in normal states, thereby improving the user experience.

[0207] In this example, the copy scene information generated by the first control device can be as follows: Fig.10 The first control device may generate copy scene information 1, copy scene information 2, copy scene information 3 and copy scene information 4.

[0208] Among them, the actions indicated by the action information in the copy scene information 1 include: opening the smart door lock, the smart speaker voice broadcasting welcome home (member version), turning on the smart light and turning on the smart air conditioner. The priority of the copy scene information 1 is 0, and the copy scene information 1 corresponds to the cloud.

[0209] The actions indicated by the action information in the copy scene information 2 include: opening the smart door lock, the smart speaker voice broadcasting welcome home (normal version), turning on the smart light and the smart air conditioner. The priority of the copy scene information 2 is 1, and the copy scene information 2 corresponds to the whole house host.

[0210] The actions indicated by the action information in the copy scene information 3 include: opening the smart door lock and turning on the smart light. The priority of the copy scene information 3 is 2, and the copy scene information 3 corresponds to the Bluetooth gateway.

[0211] The actions indicated by the action information in the copy scene information 4 include: opening the smart door lock and turning on the smart light. The priority of the copy scene information 4 is 3, and the copy scene information 4 corresponds to the mesh device.

[0212] In this example, opening the smart door lock is the trigger event for the copy scene information.

[0213] Optionally, the first control device may generate N copies of scene information through a scene engine of the first control device.

[0214] S603: The first control device sends the copy scene information corresponding to each control device to each control device other than the first control device among the N control devices. Accordingly, each control device other than the first control device among the N control devices receives the copy scene information corresponding to each control device.

[0215] by Fig.10 For example, assume that the copy scene information generated by the first control device includes copy scene information 1, copy scene information 2, copy scene information 3 and copy scene information 4, where copy scene information 1 corresponds to the cloud, copy scene information 2 corresponds to the whole-house host, copy scene information 3 corresponds to the Bluetooth gateway, and copy scene information 4 corresponds to the mesh device.

[0216] As an example, when the first control device is the cloud, the cloud can send copy scene information 2, copy scene information 3 and copy scene information 4 to the whole house host, Bluetooth gateway and mesh device respectively.

[0217] After the whole-house host receives the copy scene information 2, the copy scene information 2 can be deployed to the scene engine of the whole-house host.

[0218] When the cloud sends the copy scene information 3 to the Bluetooth gateway, the copy scene information 3 can be sent to the Bluetooth gateway through the whole house host. After the Bluetooth gateway receives the copy scene information 3, the copy scene information 3 can be deployed to the scene engine of the Bluetooth gateway.

[0219] When the cloud sends the copy scene information 4 to the mesh device, the copy scene information 4 can be sent to the mesh device through the whole-house host and the Bluetooth gateway.

[0220] It can be understood that when the cloud sends the copy scene information 4 to the mesh device, the copy scene information 4 is sent to each mesh device.

[0221] Optionally, after receiving the copy scene information 4, each mesh device may deploy the copy scene information 4 into its own storage space.

[0222] In this example, mesh devices include smart door locks and smart lights. The cloud can send copy scene information 4 to the smart door locks and smart lights respectively through the whole-house host and Bluetooth gateway.

[0223] Optionally, the Bluetooth gateway may generate identification information of the replica scene information 4 based on the replica scene information 4, and send the identification information to the mesh device. As an example, the identification information may be an identification document (ID) of the replica scene information 4.

[0224] In this example, the cloud can deploy the copy scene information 1 to the scene engine of the cloud.

[0225] As another example, when the first control device is a whole-house host, the whole-house host can send copy scene information 1, copy scene information 3 and copy scene information 4 to the cloud, Bluetooth gateway and mesh device respectively.

[0226] After the cloud receives the copy scene information 1, the copy scene information 1 can be deployed to the scene engine of the cloud.

[0227] After receiving the copy scene information 3, the Bluetooth gateway may deploy the copy scene information 3 to the scene engine of the Bluetooth gateway.

[0228] When the whole-house host sends the copy scene information 4 to the mesh device, the copy scene information 4 can be sent to the mesh device through the Bluetooth gateway.

[0229] It can be understood that when the whole-house host sends the copy scene information 4 to the mesh device, the copy scene information 4 is sent to each mesh device.

[0230] Optionally, after receiving the copy scene information 4, the mesh device may deploy the copy scene information 4 into a storage space of the mesh device.

[0231] In this example, mesh devices include smart door locks and smart lights. The whole-house host can send copy scene information 4 to the smart door locks and smart lights respectively through the Bluetooth gateway.

[0232] Optionally, the Bluetooth gateway may generate identification information of the replica scene information 4 based on the replica scene information 4, and send the identification information to the mesh device. As an example, the identification information may be an identification ID of the replica scene information 4.

[0233] In this example, the whole-house host can deploy the copy scene information 2 to the scene engine of the whole-house host.

[0234] S604, the first control device sends first indication information to the monitoring device, the first indication information is used to indicate that there is an association relationship between the N copy scene information and an association relationship between the N control devices and the N copy scene information. Correspondingly, the monitoring device receives the first indication information.

[0235] Optionally, the first control device may also send the priority of each copy of the scene information in the N copies of the scene information to the monitoring device.

[0236] In this method, multiple copies of scene information can be created based on a scene creation request, and these multiple copies of scene information can be deployed in multiple control devices respectively. In this way, when a control device fails, the linkage requirements between smart devices can be realized through other control devices based on the copy scene information.

[0237] The association relationship between the N copy scene information may be associated with the priority of each copy scene information in the N copy scene information. As an example, the association relationship between the N copy scene information may include the activation order of each copy scene information in the N copy scene information, and the activation order of each copy scene information in the N copy scene information is determined based on the priority of each copy scene information in the N copy scene information.

[0238] In some implementations, the first control device sends the first indication information to the monitoring device, which may include: when N control devices include the first control device, and the duration of the corresponding copy scene information configured by the first control device is less than the duration of the corresponding copy scene information configured by any control device among the N control devices, before the first control device sends the copy scene information corresponding to each control device to each control device, the first control device sends the first indication information to the monitoring device; and / or, after the first control device sends the copy scene information corresponding to the second control device to the second control device among the N control devices, and before the first control device sends the copy scene information corresponding to each third control device to each third control device among the N control devices, the first control device sends the first indication information to the monitoring device, and the duration of the corresponding copy scene information configured by the second control device is less than the duration of the corresponding copy scene information configured by each third control device.

[0239] As an example, assuming that the first control device is a cloud, the cloud corresponds to the copy scene information 1, and when the cloud configures the copy scene information 1, the copy scene information 1 is deployed to the scene engine of the cloud.

[0240] When configuring the copy scene information 2, the cloud needs to first determine that the control device corresponding to the copy scene information 2 is the whole-house host, and then send the copy scene information 2 to the whole-house host, and finally the whole-house host deploys the copy scene information 2 to the scene engine.

[0241] When configuring the copy scene information 3, the cloud needs to first determine that the control device corresponding to the copy scene information 3 is the Bluetooth gateway, and then send the copy scene information 3 to the Bluetooth gateway through the whole-house host. Finally, the Bluetooth gateway deploys the copy scene information 3 to the scene engine.

[0242] When configuring the copy scene information 4, the cloud needs to first determine that the control device corresponding to the copy scene information 4 is a mesh device, and then send the copy scene information 4 to each mesh device through the whole house host and Bluetooth gateway. Finally, each mesh device deploys the copy scene information 4 to its own storage space.

[0243] Generally, the more complicated the configuration process of the copy scene information is, the shorter the configuration time of the copy scene information is. Therefore, in this example, the configuration time of copy scene information 1 is less than the configuration time of copy scene information 2, less than the configuration time of copy scene information 3, and less than the configuration time of copy scene information 4.

[0244] In this example, before the cloud sends the copy scene information to the whole house host, Bluetooth gateway and mesh device, it can first send the first indication information 1 to the monitoring device. The first indication information 1 is used to indicate the association relationship between the cloud and the copy scene information 1.

[0245] Optionally, after the cloud sends the first indication information 1 to the monitoring device, it may also send the copy scene information 2 to the whole house host. In this example, the second control device may include the whole house host.

[0246] After the cloud sends the copy scene information 2 to the whole-house host and before sending the copy scene information 3 to the Bluetooth gateway, it can send the first indication information 2 to the monitoring device, and the first indication information 2 is used to indicate the association relationship between the whole-house host and the copy scene information 2.

[0247] In this example, the third control device may include a Bluetooth gateway.

[0248] After the cloud sends the copy scene information 3 to the Bluetooth gateway, it can send the first indication information 3 to the monitoring device, where the first indication information 3 is used to indicate the association relationship between the Bluetooth gateway and the copy scene information 3.

[0249] As another example, assuming that the first control device is the whole-house host, the whole-house host corresponds to the copy scene information 1, and when the whole-house host configures the copy scene information 2, the copy scene information 2 is deployed to the scene engine of the whole-house host.

[0250] When configuring the copy scene information 1, the whole-house host needs to first determine that the control device corresponding to the copy scene information 1 is the cloud, and then send the copy scene information 1 to the cloud, and finally the cloud deploys the copy scene information 1 to the scene engine.

[0251] When configuring the copy scene information 3, the whole-house host needs to first determine that the control device corresponding to the copy scene information 3 is the Bluetooth gateway, and then send the copy scene information 3 to the Bluetooth gateway. Finally, the Bluetooth gateway deploys the copy scene information 3 to the scene engine.

[0252] When configuring the copy scene information 4, the whole-house host needs to first determine that the control device corresponding to the copy scene information 4 is a mesh device, and then send the copy scene information 4 to each mesh device through the Bluetooth gateway. Finally, each mesh device deploys the copy scene information 4 to its own storage space.

[0253] In this example, the configuration duration of copy scene information 2 < the configuration duration of copy scene information 1 < the configuration duration of copy scene information 3 < the configuration duration of copy scene information 4.

[0254] In this example, before the whole-house host sends the copy scene information to the cloud, Bluetooth gateway and mesh device, it can first send the first indication information 1 to the monitoring device. The first indication information 1 is used to indicate the association relationship between the whole-house host and the copy scene information 2.

[0255] Optionally, after the whole-house host sends the first indication information 1 to the monitoring device, it may also send the copy scene information 1 to the cloud. In this example, the second control device may include the cloud.

[0256] After the whole-house host sends the copy scene information 1 to the cloud and before sending the copy scene information 3 to the Bluetooth gateway, it can send the first indication information 2 to the monitoring device, and the first indication information 2 is used to indicate the association relationship between the cloud and the copy scene information 1.

[0257] In this example, the third control device may include a Bluetooth gateway.

[0258] After the whole-house host sends the copy scene information 3 to the Bluetooth gateway, it can send the first indication information 3 to the monitoring device, and the first indication information 3 is used to indicate the association relationship between the Bluetooth gateway and the copy scene information 3.

[0259] In this method, the first control device can send the control device corresponding to the copy scene information with a short configuration time to the monitoring device before deploying the copy scene information with a long configuration time. In this way, the copy scene information with a long configuration time can be deployed in the process of executing the action indicated by the action information based on the copy scene information with a short configuration time, avoiding the problem of too long response time of the smart device due to too long deployment time of the copy scene information when the copy scene information is used to execute the action after all N copy scene information are successfully deployed.

[0260] Next, the present application will take the first control device as the cloud as an example to further introduce the method of the present application.

[0261] Fig.11 A schematic flow chart of a control method for a whole-house intelligent system provided in one embodiment of the present application. The control method may include S1101 to S1104.

[0262] In this embodiment, the whole house intelligent system can be as follows Figure 4 The whole house smart system shown.

[0263] In this embodiment, the method can be applied in the cloud. For example, the method can be implemented by the cloud, or by a chip in the cloud, or by an application or service in the cloud.

[0264] S1101, the cloud receives a scene creation request from a client, the scene creation request includes first scene information, and the first scene information includes multiple action information.

[0265] As an example, assume that the scene creation request may include first scene information, the first scene information may include multiple action information, and the actions indicated by the multiple action information include: opening the smart door lock, the smart speaker voice broadcasting welcome home, turning on the smart lights, and turning on the smart air conditioner.

[0266] In this embodiment, the step of the user inputting a scene creation request on the client can refer to Figures 7 to 9 , I will not go into details here.

[0267] S1102, the cloud generates copy scene information 1, copy scene information 2 and copy scene information 3 according to the scene creation request, copy scene information 1 corresponds to the cloud, copy scene information 2 corresponds to the whole house host, and copy scene information 3 corresponds to the Bluetooth gateway.

[0268] In this embodiment, each copy scene information in copy scene information 1, copy scene information 2 and copy scene information 3 includes at least one action information among multiple action information, and the control device corresponding to each copy scene information can execute the action indicated by each action information contained in each copy scene information.

[0269] For example, the action information in the copy scene information 1 may include: smart door lock opens, smart speaker voice broadcasts welcome home (member version), smart lights turn on, and smart air conditioner turns on. The action information in the copy scene information 2 may include: smart door lock opens, smart speaker voice broadcasts welcome home (normal version), smart lights turn on, and smart air conditioner turns on. The action information in the copy scene information 3 may include: smart door lock opens and smart lights turn on.

[0270] Optionally, the cloud can also generate copy scene information 4 according to the scene creation request, and the copy scene information 4 can correspond to the mesh device.

[0271] In this example, the action information in the copy scene information 4 includes: the smart door lock is opened and the smart light is turned on. The mesh device may include a smart door lock and a smart light.

[0272] Optionally, the cloud may also determine the priority of each copy scene information, and the priority of each copy scene information is used to determine the activation order of each copy scene information.

[0273] Optionally, the cloud may determine the priority of each copy scene information based on the ability of the control device corresponding to each copy scene information to execute multiple actions indicated by the multiple action information.

[0274] The higher the ability of the control device corresponding to each copy scene information to execute multiple actions indicated by the multiple action information is, the higher the priority of each copy scene information is.

[0275] Among them, the number of action information that can be executed by the cloud and the whole-house host is greater than the number of action information that can be executed by the Bluetooth gateway, then the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the cloud and the whole-house host is higher than the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the Bluetooth gateway and the mesh device.

[0276] In addition, the cloud can verify the user's music membership, so better voice broadcast content can be used through the cloud. The deployment process of the replica scene information corresponding to the mesh device is more complicated than the deployment process of the replica scene information corresponding to the Bluetooth gateway.

[0277] So in this example, the priority of copy scene information 1 is 0, the priority of copy scene information 2 is 1, the priority of copy scene information 3 is 2, and the priority of copy scene information 4 is 3.

[0278] The steps of generating copy scene information 1, copy scene information 2 and copy scene information 3 in the cloud according to the scene creation request can refer to the content of the aforementioned S602 and will not be repeated here.

[0279] S1103, the cloud sends the copy scene information 2 and the copy scene information 3 to the whole house host and the Bluetooth gateway respectively. Correspondingly, the whole house host and the Bluetooth gateway receive the copy scene information 2 and the copy scene information 3 respectively.

[0280] Optionally, the cloud can also send a copy of the scene information 4 to each mesh device.

[0281] Optionally, the cloud can deploy the copy scene information 1 to the scene engine of the cloud.

[0282] The process of the cloud sending copy scene information 2 and copy scene information 3 to the whole house host and Bluetooth gateway and the process of the cloud sending copy scene information 4 to each mesh device can refer to the above-mentioned S603 content and will not be repeated here.

[0283] S1104, the cloud sends first indication information to the monitoring device, the first indication information is used to indicate that each copy of the scene information has an association relationship and each copy of the scene information has an association relationship with the corresponding control device. Correspondingly, the monitoring device receives the first indication information.

[0284] Optionally, the cloud can also send the priority of each copy scene information to the monitoring device.

[0285] In this example, the cloud sends the first indication information to the monitoring device, which may include: when the duration of the copy scene information corresponding to the cloud configuration is less than the duration of the copy scene information corresponding to the other control devices, before the cloud sends the copy scene information corresponding to each control device to each of the other control devices, the cloud sends the first indication information to the monitoring device; and / or, after the cloud sends the copy scene information corresponding to the second control device to the second control device among the other control devices, and before the cloud sends the copy scene information corresponding to each third control device to each of the other control devices, the cloud sends the first indication information to the monitoring device, and the duration of the copy scene information corresponding to the second control device configuration is less than the duration of the copy scene information corresponding to the third control device configuration.

[0286] When the configuration time of the copy scene information 1 is less than the configuration time of the copy scene information 2, the configuration time of the copy scene information 3 is less than the configuration time of the copy scene information 4, the control method of the whole house intelligent system can also be as follows: Fig.12 shown.

[0287] S1101, the cloud receives a scene creation request from a client, the scene creation request includes first scene information, and the first scene information includes multiple action information.

[0288] S1102, the cloud generates copy scene information 1, copy scene information 2 and copy scene information 3 according to the scene creation request, copy scene information 1 corresponds to the cloud, copy scene information 2 corresponds to the whole house host, and copy scene information 3 corresponds to the Bluetooth gateway.

[0289] S1103, the cloud sends first indication information 1 to the monitoring device, where the first indication information 1 is used to indicate the association relationship between the cloud and the copy scene information 1.

[0290] Optionally, after the cloud sends the first indication information 1 to the monitoring device, it can also send the priority of the copy scene information 1 to the monitoring device.

[0291] S1104, the cloud sends the copy scene information 2 to the host in the whole house.

[0292] In this example, the second control device may include a whole-house host.

[0293] S1105, the cloud sends a first indication information 2 to the monitoring device, where the first indication information 2 is used to indicate the association relationship between the whole-house host and the copy scene information 2.

[0294] Optionally, after the cloud sends the first indication information 2 to the monitoring device, it can also send the priority of the copy scene information 2 to the monitoring device.

[0295] S1106, the cloud sends the copy scene information 3 to the Bluetooth gateway.

[0296] In this example, the third control device may include a Bluetooth gateway.

[0297] S1107, the cloud sends a first indication message 3 to the monitoring device, where the first indication message 3 is used to indicate the association relationship between the Bluetooth gateway and the copy scene information 3.

[0298] Optionally, after the cloud sends the first indication information 3 to the monitoring device, it can also send the priority of the copy scene information 3 to the monitoring device.

[0299] In some embodiments, the cloud may also execute S1104 first, and then execute S1103 and S1105.

[0300] Optionally, the cloud can also generate copy scene information 4 according to the scene creation request.

[0301] In this case, after S1107, the cloud may also send the copy scene information 4 to the mesh device, and send the first indication information 4 to the monitoring device, where the first indication information 4 is used to indicate the association relationship between the mesh device and the copy scene information 4.

[0302] In some embodiments, the cloud may also first execute S1104 and S1106, and then execute S1103, S1105, and S1107. After S1107, the cloud sends the copy scene information 4 to the mesh device.

[0303] Next, this application will take the first control device as the whole-house host as an example to further introduce the method of this application.

[0304] Fig.13 A schematic flow chart of a control method for a whole-house intelligent system provided in one embodiment of the present application. The control method may include S1301 to S1304.

[0305] In this embodiment, the whole house intelligent system can be as follows Figure 4 The whole house smart system shown.

[0306] In this embodiment, the method can be applied to the whole-house host. For example, the method can be implemented by the whole-house host, or can be implemented by a chip in the whole-house host, or can be implemented by an application or service in the whole-house host.

[0307] S1301, the whole-house host receives a scene creation request from a client, where the scene creation request includes first scene information, and the first scene information includes multiple action information.

[0308] As an example, assume that the scene creation request may include first scene information, and the first scene information may include multiple action information, such as the smart door lock opening, the smart speaker voice broadcasting welcome home, the smart light turning on, and the smart air conditioner turning on.

[0309] In this embodiment, the step of the user inputting a scene creation request on the client can refer to Figures 7 to 9 , I will not go into details here.

[0310] S1302, the whole-house host generates copy scene information 1, copy scene information 2 and copy scene information 3 according to the scene creation request. Copy scene information 1 corresponds to the cloud, copy scene information 2 corresponds to the whole-house host, and copy scene information 3 corresponds to the Bluetooth gateway.

[0311] In this embodiment, each copy scene information in copy scene information 1, copy scene information 2 and copy scene information 3 includes at least one action information among multiple action information, and the control device corresponding to each copy scene information can execute the action indicated by each action information contained in each copy scene information.

[0312] For example, the action information in the copy scene information 1 may include: smart door lock opens, smart speaker voice broadcasts welcome home (member version), smart lights turn on, and smart air conditioner turns on. The action information in the copy scene information 2 may include: smart door lock opens, smart speaker voice broadcasts welcome home (normal version), smart lights turn on, and smart air conditioner turns on. The action information in the copy scene information 3 may include: smart door lock opens and smart lights turn on.

[0313] Optionally, the whole-house host can also generate copy scene information 4 according to the scene creation request, and the copy scene information 4 can correspond to the mesh device.

[0314] In this example, the action information in the copy scene information 4 includes: the smart door lock is opened and the smart light is turned on. The mesh device may include a smart door lock and a smart light.

[0315] Optionally, the cloud may also determine the priority of each copy scene information, and the priority of each copy scene information is used to determine the activation order of each copy scene information.

[0316] Optionally, the cloud may determine the priority of each copy scene information based on the ability of the control device corresponding to each copy scene information to execute multiple actions indicated by the multiple action information.

[0317] The higher the ability of the control device corresponding to each copy scene information to execute multiple actions indicated by the multiple action information is, the higher the priority of each copy scene information is.

[0318] Among them, the number of action information that can be executed by the cloud and the whole-house host is greater than the number of action information that can be executed by the Bluetooth gateway, then the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the cloud and the whole-house host is higher than the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the Bluetooth gateway and the mesh device.

[0319] In addition, the cloud can verify the user's music membership, so better voice broadcast content can be used through the cloud. The deployment process of the replica scene information corresponding to the mesh device is more complicated than the deployment process of the replica scene information corresponding to the Bluetooth gateway.

[0320] So in this example, the priority of copy scene information 1 is 0, the priority of copy scene information 2 is 1, the priority of copy scene information 3 is 2, and the priority of copy scene information 4 is 3.

[0321] The steps of generating copy scene information 1, copy scene information 2 and copy scene information 3 in the cloud according to the scene creation request can refer to the content of the aforementioned S602 and will not be repeated here.

[0322] S1303, the whole house host sends the copy scene information 1 and the copy scene information 3 to the cloud and the Bluetooth gateway respectively. Correspondingly, the cloud and the Bluetooth gateway receive the copy scene information 1 and the copy scene information 3 respectively.

[0323] Optionally, the whole-house host can also send a copy of the scene information 4 to each mesh device.

[0324] Optionally, the whole-house host can deploy the copy scene information 2 into the scene engine of the whole-house host.

[0325] The process of the whole-house host sending the copy scene information 1 and the copy scene information 3 to the cloud and the Bluetooth gateway and the process of the whole-house host sending the copy scene information 4 to each mesh device can refer to the above-mentioned S603 content and will not be repeated here.

[0326] S1304, the whole-house host sends first indication information to the monitoring device, where the first indication information is used to indicate that each copy of the scene information has an association relationship and that each copy of the scene information has an association relationship with the corresponding control device. Accordingly, the monitoring device receives the first indication information.

[0327] Optionally, the whole-house host can also send the priority of each copy scene information to the monitoring device.

[0328] In some embodiments, the whole-house host may not generate the corresponding copy scene information 1 in the cloud, and accordingly, the whole-house host may not send the copy scene information 1 to the cloud.

[0329] In this example, the whole-house host sends the first indication information to the monitoring device, which may include: when the duration of the copy scene information corresponding to the configuration of the whole-house host is less than the duration of the copy scene information corresponding to the configuration of other control devices, before the whole-house host sends the copy scene information corresponding to each control device to each control device in other control devices, the whole-house host sends the first indication information to the monitoring device; and / or, after the whole-house host sends the copy scene information corresponding to the second control device to the second control device in other control devices, and before the whole-house host sends the copy scene information corresponding to each third control device to each third control device in other control devices, the whole-house host sends the first indication information to the monitoring device, and the duration of the copy scene information corresponding to the second control device configuration is less than the duration of the copy scene information corresponding to the configuration of each third control device.

[0330] When the configuration time of the copy scene information 1 is less than the configuration time of the copy scene information 2, the configuration time of the copy scene information 3 is less than the configuration time of the copy scene information 4, the control method of the whole house intelligent system can also be as follows: Fig.14 shown.

[0331] S1301, the whole-house host receives a scene creation request from a client, where the scene creation request includes first scene information, and the first scene information includes multiple action information.

[0332] S1302, the whole-house host generates copy scene information 1, copy scene information 2 and copy scene information 3 according to the scene creation request. Copy scene information 1 corresponds to the cloud, copy scene information 2 corresponds to the whole-house host, and copy scene information 3 corresponds to the Bluetooth gateway.

[0333] S1303, the whole-house host sends the first indication information 1 to the monitoring device, where the first indication information 1 is used to indicate the association relationship between the whole-house host and the copy scene information 2.

[0334] Optionally, after the cloud sends the first indication information 2 to the monitoring device, it can also send the priority of the copy scene information 2 to the monitoring device.

[0335] S1304, the whole house host sends the copy scene information 1 to the cloud.

[0336] In this example, the second control device may include a cloud.

[0337] S1305, the whole-house host sends the first indication information 2 to the monitoring device, and the first indication information 2 is used to indicate the association relationship between the cloud and the copy scene information 1.

[0338] Optionally, after the whole-house host sends the first indication information 2 to the monitoring device, it can also send the priority of the copy scene information 1 to the monitoring device.

[0339] S1306, the whole-house host sends the copy scene information 3 to the Bluetooth gateway.

[0340] In this example, the third control device may include a Bluetooth gateway.

[0341] S1307, the whole-house host sends the first indication information 3 to the monitoring device, and the first indication information 3 is used to indicate the association relationship between the Bluetooth gateway and the copy scene information 3.

[0342] Optionally, after the whole-house host sends the first indication information 3 to the monitoring device, it can also send the priority of the copy scene information 3 to the monitoring device.

[0343] In some embodiments, the control method may not include S1304 and S1305.

[0344] In some embodiments, the whole-house host may also execute S1304 first, and then execute S1303 and S1305.

[0345] Optionally, the whole-house host can also generate copy scene information 4 according to the scene creation request.

[0346] In this case, after S1307, the whole-house host can also send the copy scene information 4 to the mesh device and send the first indication information 4 to the monitoring device. The first indication information 4 is used to indicate the association relationship between the mesh device and the copy scene information 4.

[0347] In some embodiments, the whole-house host may also first execute S1304 and S1306, and then execute S1303, S1305, and S1307. After S1307, the whole-house host sends the copy scene information 4 to the mesh device.

[0348] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first action information in the first scene information may further include second scene information, and the second scene information may include at least one action information. In this case, the N duplicate scene information generated by the first control device may include duplicate scene information of the second scene information.

[0349] For example, assuming that the action information in the first scene information includes: action information 1, action information 2, action information 3 and action information 4, action 1 indicated by action information 1 is to open the smart door lock, action 2 indicated by action information 2 is to broadcast welcome home by voice of the smart speaker, action 3 indicated by action information 3 is to turn on the smart light, and action 4 indicated by action information 4 is the second scene information. Among them, action 1 indicated by action information 1 can be the triggering event of the first scene information, and action information 4 is the first action information in the first scene information.

[0350] In this embodiment, the copy scene information of the second scene information may include one or more. The copy scene information of the first scene information may be referred to as first copy scene information, and the copy scene information of the second scene information may be referred to as second copy scene information.

[0351] When the second copy scene information includes one, there is at least one first copy scene information among the N first copy scene information that can include the second copy scene information. Among them, the control device corresponding to the at least one first copy scene information can include control device 1 and control device 2. Among them, control device 1 can be the control device corresponding to the second copy scene information, and control device 2 can be used to schedule the control device corresponding to the second copy scene information.

[0352] As an example, assume that the first copy scene information includes: first copy scene information 1, first copy scene information 2, first copy scene information 3 and first copy scene information 4, first copy scene information 1 corresponds to the cloud, first copy scene information 2 corresponds to the whole house host, first copy scene information 3 corresponds to the Bluetooth gateway, and first copy scene information 4 corresponds to the mesh device. And assume that the second copy scene information is deployed in the whole house host.

[0353] In this example, the first copy scene information can be as follows: Fig.15 As shown, the first copy scene information 1 and the first copy scene information 2 both include the second copy scene information.

[0354] Optionally, in some examples, the first copy scene information 1 and the first copy scene information 2 may include an identifier of the second copy scene information.

[0355] When the second copy scene information includes multiple pieces, at least one of the N first copy scene information generated by the first control device may include the second copy scene information. The control device corresponding to each first copy scene information in the at least one first copy scene information and the control device corresponding to the second copy scene information included in each first copy scene information are the same control device.

[0356] As an example, assume that the first copy scene information includes: first copy scene information 1, first copy scene information 2, first copy scene information 3 and first copy scene information 4, the first copy scene information 1 corresponds to the cloud, the first copy scene information 2 corresponds to the whole house host, the first copy scene information 3 corresponds to the Bluetooth gateway, and the first copy scene information 4 corresponds to the mesh device. And assume that the second copy scene information includes: second copy scene information 1 and second copy scene information 2, the second copy scene information 1 corresponds to the cloud, and the second copy scene information 2 corresponds to the whole house host.

[0357] In this example, the copy scene information of the first scene information can be as follows: Fig.16 As shown, the first copy scene information 1 includes the second copy scene information 1, and the first copy scene information 2 includes the second copy scene information 2.

[0358] Optionally, in some examples, the first copy scene information 1 may include an identifier of the second copy scene information 1 , and the first copy scene information 2 may include an identifier of the second copy scene information 2 .

[0359] Optionally, in some embodiments, the second action information in the action information included in the second scene information may also include third scene information, and the second scene information may include at least one action information. In this case, the N copy scene information generated by the first control device may also include copy scene information of the third scene information.

[0360] For example, assuming that the action information in the first scene information includes: action information 1, action information 2, action information 3 and action information 4, the action indicated by action information 1 is to open the smart door lock, the action indicated by action information 2 is to broadcast welcome home by voice of the smart speaker, the action indicated by action information 3 is to turn on the smart light 1, and the action indicated by action information 4 is the second scene information, the second action information in the second scene information includes the third scene information, and the action indicated by the action information in the third scene information is to turn on the smart light 2. Among them, action information 1 can indicate the triggering event of the first scene information, and action information 4 is the first action information in the first scene information.

[0361] In this embodiment, the copy scene information of the third scene information may include one or more. The copy scene information of the third scene information may be referred to as third copy scene information, and the following description will be given by taking the example that both the second copy information and the third copy scene information include one.

[0362] When the third copy scene information includes one, there is at least one first copy scene information in the N first copy scene information that can include the third copy scene information.

[0363] As an example, assume that the first copy scene information includes: first copy scene information 1, first copy scene information 2, first copy scene information 3 and first copy scene information 4, first copy scene information 1 corresponds to the cloud, first copy scene information 2 corresponds to the whole house host, first copy scene information 3 corresponds to the Bluetooth gateway, and first copy scene information 4 corresponds to the mesh device. And assume that the second copy scene information is deployed in the whole house host, and assume that the third copy information is deployed in the Bluetooth gateway.

[0364] In this example, the first copy scene information can be as follows: Fig.17 The first copy scene information 1 may include the second copy scene information, and the first copy scene information 2 may include the third copy scene information. The first copy scene information 3 and the first copy scene information 4 may include the action indicated by the action information in the third copy scene information.

[0365] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first copy scene information 1 may include an identifier of the second copy scene information, and the first copy scene information 2 may include second action information of the second copy scene information, and the second action information of the second copy scene information is used to indicate an identifier of the third copy scene information.

[0366] Optionally, when the first control device generates the first copy scene information, it can also directly create the first copy scene information with the lowest priority, and the first copy scene information includes the action indicated by the action information in the third copy scene information. Fig.18 In this embodiment, the first copy scene information includes the action information in the third copy scene information, which can avoid the situation where the action information of the third copy scene information cannot be executed due to a failure of the control device corresponding to the second copy scene information or the scene engine in the control device, thereby avoiding the situation where the action of the first copy scene information cannot be executed.

[0367] It can be understood that the above embodiment describes the generation and configuration process of the copy scene information. Next, the present application will describe the use process of the copy scene information.

[0368] Fig.19 This is a flow chart of a control method for a whole-house intelligent system provided by another embodiment of the present application. Fig.19 As shown, the method may include S1901 to S1903.

[0369] In this embodiment, the whole house intelligent system can be as follows Figure 4 The whole house smart system shown.

[0370] In this embodiment, the method can be applied to a monitoring device. For example, the method can be implemented by the monitoring device, or can be implemented by a chip in the monitoring device, or can be implemented by an application or service in the monitoring device.

[0371] In this embodiment, the monitoring device can detect the working status of each control device among N control devices in the whole-house intelligent system.

[0372] S1901, the monitoring device detects the working status of the current control device.

[0373] In this embodiment, the current control device may be one of the N control devices. As an example, the current control device may be a cloud, a whole-house host, or a Bluetooth gateway.

[0374] In this embodiment, when the monitoring device determines that the triggering event and the effectiveness conditions of the scene are all satisfied, it detects the working state of the current control device, wherein the scene engine in the current control device is deployed with the copy scene information corresponding to the scene.

[0375] As an example, assume that the triggering event of the scene is the opening of the smart door lock, and the effective condition is to execute from 5 pm to 10 pm. After the smart door lock detects that it is turned on, it can send the status information of the smart door lock to the Bluetooth gateway, and the status information is used to indicate that the smart door lock is in the open state. After the Bluetooth gateway receives the status information, it can determine whether the triggering condition and the effective condition of the scene are met based on the status information and the copy scene information deployed in the Bluetooth gateway. If the triggering condition and the effective condition of the scene are met, the Bluetooth gateway can send an indication information to the monitoring device, and the indication information is used to indicate the control device corresponding to the detection scene.

[0376] S1902, when the monitoring device detects that the working state of the current control device is abnormal, the monitoring device sends a first activation indication message to the backup control device according to the first indication message, the backup control device is one of the N control devices with a normal working state, and the first activation indication message is used to instruct the backup control device to activate the copy scene information corresponding to the backup control device. Correspondingly, the backup control device receives the first activation indication message.

[0377] In this embodiment, the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the current control device is higher than the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the backup control device, and the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the backup control device is higher than the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to any control device in normal working condition among the N control devices.

[0378] As an example, assuming that the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the cloud is higher than the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the whole house host, and the priority of the copy scene information is higher than the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the Bluetooth host. Then the current control device can be the cloud, and the backup control device can be the whole house host.

[0379] Optionally, the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the current control device may be the highest priority among the N copy scene information.

[0380] S1903: The standby control device controls at least one smart device to perform an action in response to the first activation instruction information.

[0381] In the method, the at least one intelligent device is an intelligent device that can be controlled by the backup control device.

[0382] As an example, assuming that the backup control device is a whole-house host, which can be used to control smart door locks, smart speakers, smart lights and smart air conditioners, the at least one smart device may include smart door locks, smart speakers, smart lights and smart air conditioners.

[0383] The scene engine in the standby control device may include the copy scene information corresponding to the standby control device, and the copy scene information includes action information.

[0384] In this embodiment, the action performed by at least one smart device may be an action indicated by the action information.

[0385] Assuming that the action information in the copy scene information corresponding to the whole-house host includes: smart door lock opening, smart speaker voice broadcast welcome home (normal version), smart lights turning on and smart air conditioner turning on, the whole-house host can control the smart door lock, smart speaker, smart lights and smart air conditioner to perform the actions indicated by the above action information.

[0386] After receiving the first activation instruction information, the whole-house host can send a first instruction to the smart speaker, where the first instruction is used to instruct the smart speaker to turn on. Correspondingly, the smart speaker turns on after receiving the first instruction.

[0387] After receiving the first activation instruction information, the whole-house host can send a second instruction to the smart air conditioner, and the second instruction is used to instruct the smart air conditioner to turn on. Correspondingly, the smart air conditioner turns on after receiving the second instruction.

[0388] After receiving the first activation instruction information, the whole-house host can send a third instruction to the smart light through the Bluetooth gateway, and the third instruction is used to instruct the smart light to turn on. Correspondingly, the smart light turns on after receiving the third instruction.

[0389] Optionally, the control device that receives the activation indication information may be referred to as a target control device. In this example, the target control device is the standby control device.

[0390] Optionally, the method may also include S1904 to S1906.

[0391] S1904, when the monitoring device detects that the current control device is in normal working state, it sends deactivation instruction information to the backup control device, the deactivation instruction information is used to instruct the backup control device to deactivate the copy scene information corresponding to the backup control device. Correspondingly, the backup control device receives the deactivation instruction information.

[0392] In the method, the backup control device deactivates the copy scene information corresponding to the backup control device in response to the deactivation indication information, so that the backup control device no longer controls at least one intelligent device to perform an action.

[0393] S1905, the monitoring device sends second activation instruction information to the current control device, where the second activation instruction information is used to instruct the current control device to activate the copy scene information corresponding to the current control device. Correspondingly, the current control device receives the second activation instruction information.

[0394] S1906: The current control device controls at least one smart device to perform an action in response to the second activation instruction information.

[0395] In the method, the at least one smart device is a smart device that can be controlled by the current control device.

[0396] As an example, the current backup control device is the cloud, which can be used to control smart door locks, smart speakers, smart lights and smart air conditioners. Then the at least one smart device may include smart door locks, smart speakers, smart lights and smart air conditioners.

[0397] The scene engine in the current control device may include the copy scene information corresponding to the current control device, and the copy scene information includes action information.

[0398] In this embodiment, the action performed by at least one smart device may be an action indicated by the action information.

[0399] Assuming that the action information in the copy scene information corresponding to the cloud includes: smart door lock opening, smart speaker voice broadcast welcome home (member version), smart lights turning on and smart air conditioner turning on, the cloud can control the smart door lock, smart speaker, smart lights and smart air conditioner to perform the actions indicated by the above action information.

[0400] After the cloud receives the second activation instruction information, the first instruction can be sent to the smart speaker through the whole-house host, and the first instruction is used to instruct the smart speaker to turn on. Correspondingly, the smart speaker turns on after receiving the first instruction.

[0401] After the cloud receives the second activation instruction information, a second instruction can be sent to the smart air conditioner through the whole house host, and the second instruction is used to instruct the smart air conditioner to turn on. Correspondingly, the smart air conditioner turns on after receiving the second instruction.

[0402] After the cloud receives the second activation instruction information, a third instruction can be sent to the smart light through the whole-house host and the Bluetooth gateway, and the third instruction is used to instruct the smart light to turn on. Correspondingly, the smart light turns on after receiving the third instruction.

[0403] In this example, the target control device is the current control device.

[0404] Optionally, when the monitoring device detects that the working states of the current control device and the backup control device are both abnormal, the monitoring device may send a third activation indication message to other control devices, where the third activation indication message is used to instruct other control devices to activate the copy scene information corresponding to the current control device.

[0405] Among them, the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to other control devices is higher than that of any control device among the N control devices except the current control device, the backup control device and other control devices.

[0406] As an example, assuming that the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the cloud is higher than the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the whole house host, and the priority of the copy scene information is higher than the priority of the copy scene information corresponding to the Bluetooth host. Then the current control device can be the cloud, the backup control device can be the whole house host, and the other control device can be the Bluetooth host.

[0407] Assuming that the action information in the copy scene information corresponding to the Bluetooth host includes: the smart air conditioner is turned on, the Bluetooth host can control the smart light to perform the action indicated by the above action information.

[0408] After receiving the third activation instruction information, the Bluetooth host may send a third instruction to the smart light, where the third instruction is used to instruct the smart light to turn on. Correspondingly, the smart light turns on after receiving the third instruction.

[0409] In this example, the target control device is the other control device.

[0410] In some embodiments, the replica scene information may also be deployed in the mesh device. As an example, the mesh device may include a smart door lock and a smart light.

[0411] Optionally, when the status of the cloud, the whole-house host and the Bluetooth gateway are all abnormal, after the smart door lock is turned on, the smart door lock determines whether the conditions for the scene to be effective are met. If the conditions for the scene to be effective are met, the smart door lock can broadcast the scene identifier of the scene. After the smart light receives the scene identifier, it can determine the copy scene information corresponding to the scene identifier based on the scene identifier, and then turn on based on the copy scene information.

[0412] In this example, the smart door lock can be equivalent to a control device.
