Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of voice control technology, and in particular to a voice control method, a device selection method and an electronic device. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of voice recognition technology, electronic devices (such as mobile phones, etc.) can perform corresponding actions according to the voice commands issued by users. For example, when a user issues a voice command "Youyou, call mom", the mobile phone can dial mom's mobile phone number according to the voice command to realize the interaction between the user and the electronic device.

[0003] However, due to certain reasons (such as the electronic device is far away from the user), the electronic device cannot accurately recognize the voice command, so that the electronic device does not respond or responds incorrectly, which in turn affects the user's experience. Summary of the invention

[0004] The embodiments of the present application provide a voice control method, a device selection method and an electronic device, which are used to realize timely and accurate recognition of voice commands, so that the electronic device can respond in a timely and accurate manner.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the embodiments of the present application adopt the following technical solutions:

[0006] In a first aspect, a voice control method is provided, which is applied to a first electronic device in a voice sharing system, wherein the voice sharing system includes multiple electronic devices, each of which corresponds to a different wake-up word, and a communication connection is established between the multiple electronic devices. In the method, first, the first electronic device receives a voice command issued by a user. Then, when the voice command includes a wake-up word corresponding to a target device and action information, the first electronic device sends an action command to a target device corresponding to an identifier of the target device. Then, the target device executes the action command.

[0007] In the present application, since the first electronic device is an electronic device in the voice sharing system, and the first electronic device is used to send an action instruction to the target device so that the target device executes the action instruction, that is, as long as any electronic device in the voice sharing system receives the voice instruction, it can control the target device to perform the corresponding action, and the target device does not need to receive the voice instruction to perform the corresponding action. In this way, remote interaction between electronic devices can be achieved, which can not only reduce the occurrence of errors in the target device's action execution or the inability to execute the action due to the long distance between the user and the target device, and improve the accuracy of the target device's action execution, but also reduce the occurrence of the target device's inability to receive voice instructions due to damage to the target device's microphone, thereby improving the reliability of the voice sharing system and thereby improving the user's interactive experience.

[0008] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the first electronic device is determined based on electronic device information selected by a user on a first interface displayed by a second electronic device, or the first electronic device is determined based on electronic device information corresponding to a control control selected by a user on a second interface displayed by the second electronic device; wherein the second electronic device is one of multiple electronic devices, and the second electronic device and the first electronic device may be the same or different.

[0009] In the present application, since the first electronic device is determined based on the user's selection operation on any electronic device information on the first interface, or the first electronic device is determined based on the user's control operation on any control control on the second interface, that is, the first electronic device is a device specified by the user, therefore, the first electronic device can directly analyze according to the received voice command to obtain the identification and action instructions of the target device, and there is no need for the voice sharing system to first determine the first electronic device before performing voice command analysis. In this way, the calculation process of determining the first electronic device can be reduced, thereby improving the efficiency of the target device in executing actions.

[0010] In a possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the first electronic device is an electronic device corresponding to a voice instruction received from a plurality of electronic devices whose signal strength value meets a preset signal condition.

[0011] In the present application, since the first electronic device is determined based on the signal strength value, and the signal strength value is a signal strength value that meets the preset signal condition, after the user issues a voice command, the target device and action command parsed by the first electronic device are accurate. In other words, the first electronic device can accurately identify the voice command issued by the user, thereby ensuring that the target device can accurately execute the action command issued by the user, reducing the occurrence of action execution errors due to unclear voice commands received by the target device, and improving the user's interactive experience.

[0012] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, when the action instruction includes an outgoing call instruction, the process of the first electronic device sending the action instruction may specifically include: the first electronic device sends the outgoing call instruction to the target device corresponding to the identifier of the target device. Afterwards, the target device may make an outgoing call according to the called number or contact information in the outgoing call instruction, and display an outgoing call interface, wherein the contact information may include a contact name or a contact phone number.

[0013] In the present application, if the action instruction includes an outgoing call instruction, the target device can execute the outgoing call instruction and display the outgoing call interface on the target device. In this way, as long as the first electronic device can determine the target device and the action instruction, the target device can perform the corresponding action. In other words, regardless of whether the target device can accurately receive the voice command issued by the user, the target device can accurately perform the corresponding action, thereby improving the user experience.

[0014] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the method further includes: the first electronic device receives the called number information sent by the target device. Then, the first electronic device displays an outgoing call interface, wherein the outgoing call interface includes the called number information.

[0015] In the present application, after the target device executes the outgoing call action, the first electronic device can receive the called number information sent by the target device, so as to display the outgoing call interface according to the called number information. That is to say, the first electronic device will also synchronously display the corresponding outgoing call interface. In this way, even if the user is far away from the target device, the user can talk to the contact through the interface displayed on the first electronic device, so that the user can clearly understand the call status and can communicate with the contact in time when the call is connected, thereby improving the user experience.

[0016] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, when the action instruction includes a vehicle control instruction, the process of the first electronic device sending the action instruction may specifically include: the first electronic device sends the vehicle control instruction to the target vehicle. Thereafter, in response to the vehicle control instruction, the vehicle-mounted system in the target vehicle controls the target device in the vehicle to perform a corresponding action.

[0017] In the present application, if the action instruction includes a vehicle control instruction, the target device can control the target device to perform the corresponding action. In this way, as long as the first electronic device can determine the target device and the action instruction, the target device can perform the corresponding action. In other words, regardless of whether the target device can accurately receive the voice instruction issued by the user, the target device can accurately perform the corresponding action, thereby improving the user experience. In addition, by determining the target device and the action instruction by the first electronic device, not only can the remote control of the car be achieved, but also the situation where the car cannot receive the voice instruction issued by the user due to a failure of the hardware in the car (such as a microphone) can be reduced, thereby improving the reliability of the intelligent voice sharing system.

[0018] In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the method further includes: the first electronic device receives an execution result of the action instruction sent by the target device; wherein the execution result of the action instruction includes completion status information or failure status information, the completion status information is used to indicate that the target device has completed the action corresponding to the action instruction, and the failure status information is used to indicate that the target device has failed to respond to the action instruction. Afterwards, the first electronic device outputs the execution result of the action instruction.

[0019] The first electronic device may output the execution result of the action instruction in the form of voice or text.

[0020] In the present application, when the first electronic device receives the execution result of the action instruction sent by the target device, the first electronic device can output the execution result of the action instruction by voice or text, so that the user can know the execution result of the action instruction in time, avoid the user's doubts about whether the voice instruction is executed, and thus improve the user's experience. In addition, if the execution result of the action instruction is a failure status information, the user can manually control the target device to execute the action instruction or issue the voice instruction again, reducing the user's waiting time.

[0021] In the second aspect, a device selection method is provided, which is applied to a first device among multiple electronic devices in a voice sharing system, wherein the wake-up words corresponding to the multiple electronic devices are all different, and a communication connection is established between the multiple electronic devices. In this method, the first device receives voice commands received by other electronic devices in the voice sharing system except the first device. Afterwards, for the voice commands received by each electronic device in the multiple electronic devices, the first device recognizes the voice commands according to a voice recognition algorithm, and obtains a signal strength value corresponding to the voice commands, wherein the voice recognition algorithm refers to an algorithm for calculating the signal strength of the voice commands according to the voice loudness and / or voice quality. Afterwards, the first device uses the electronic device corresponding to the voice command whose received signal strength value meets the preset signal condition as the first electronic device; wherein the first device is the same as or different from the first electronic device.

[0022] In the present application, the first device can recognize the voice command through a voice recognition algorithm to obtain the signal strength value corresponding to the voice command, and the voice recognition algorithm refers to an algorithm for calculating the signal strength of the voice command according to the voice loudness and / or voice quality. Therefore, the voice command whose signal strength value meets the preset signal condition is a voice command that is less affected by noise and is clearer. In other words, the electronic device corresponding to the voice command is the electronic device that receives the clearest voice command, which not only provides a basis for the subsequent first electronic device to accurately recognize the voice command. It can also improve the intelligent coordination ability of all electronic devices in the intelligent voice sharing system. In other words, as long as one electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system can receive the voice command with the strongest signal strength, the target device can complete the corresponding action without the target device receiving the voice command issued by the user, thereby increasing the use scenarios of the intelligent voice sharing system and improving the user experience.

[0023] In addition, since the voice command only includes the wake-up word corresponding to any electronic device among multiple electronic devices, the first device can determine the corresponding signal strength value at the same time as the user sends the action information, without having to wait until the user outputs the action information to calculate the signal strength, which provides a basis for the subsequent timely determination of the first electronic device, thereby improving the efficiency of the determination of the first electronic device.

[0024] In a possible implementation manner of the second aspect, the method further includes: when the signal strength value is the highest or the signal strength value is greater than a preset strength value, the first device determines that the signal strength value meets a preset signal condition.

[0025] In a possible implementation of the second aspect, the determination process of the above-mentioned first electronic device may specifically include: the first device determines the number of voice instructions received whose signal strength values ​​meet the preset signal conditions. When the number is 1, the first device may directly use the electronic device corresponding to the voice instructions whose signal strength values ​​meet the preset signal conditions as the first electronic device.

[0026] In the present application, if the number of voice instructions whose signal strength values ​​meet the preset signal conditions is 1, the first device can directly use the electronic device corresponding to the voice instructions whose signal strength values ​​meet the preset signal conditions as the first electronic device. In this way, the accuracy of the determination of the first electronic device can be improved, providing a basis for the subsequent accurate recognition of voice instructions.

[0027] In a possible implementation of the second aspect, the above method further includes: when there are multiple voice instructions whose signal strength values ​​meet the preset signal condition, the first device can use the electronic device corresponding to the voice instruction whose signal strength value meets the preset signal condition as a candidate first electronic device. Afterwards, the first device can obtain the status information of each candidate first electronic device; wherein the status information includes at least one of battery life status information, running status information, and the number of background running programs. Afterwards, the first device uses the electronic device corresponding to the voice instruction that meets the preset condition corresponding to the status information as the first electronic device.

[0028] In the present application, if there are multiple voice instructions whose signal strength values ​​meet the preset signal conditions, the first device can, based on the status information of the candidate first electronic devices, select the electronic device corresponding to the voice instruction that meets the preset conditions corresponding to the status information as the first electronic device. In this way, the first electronic device can be the device with the best status among the candidate first electronic devices, providing a basis for the subsequent accurate recognition of voice instructions.

[0029] In a possible implementation manner of the second aspect, when the status information includes battery life status information, the preset condition corresponding to the battery life status information includes that the electronic device is in a charging mode or that the remaining power of the electronic device is the highest.

[0030] In the present application, the first electronic device is an electronic device that is in charging mode or has the highest remaining power. In this way, it can ensure that the first electronic device has sufficient power to avoid the situation where the power is too low due to the device recognizing voice commands and affecting the user's subsequent use.

[0031] In a possible implementation manner of the second aspect, when the status information includes operating status information, the preset condition corresponding to the operating status information includes that the electronic device is in an idle state, wherein the idle state refers to a state corresponding to the electronic device that is not used by a user.

[0032] In the present application, the first electronic device is an electronic device in an idle state. In this way, the operating speed of the first electronic device can be guaranteed, the occurrence of low operating speed due to a large number of programs or algorithms running on the electronic device can be reduced, and the user experience can be improved.

[0033] In a possible implementation of the second aspect, when the status information includes the number of background running programs, the preset condition corresponding to the number of background running programs includes the minimum number of background running programs in the electronic device or the number of background running programs in the electronic device is less than a preset number, wherein the number of background running programs represents the number of applications running in the background of the electronic device.

[0034] In the present application, the first electronic device is an electronic device with the least number of background running programs or the number of background running programs is less than a preset number. In this way, the running speed of the first electronic device can be guaranteed, and the occurrence of low running speed due to a large number of programs or algorithms running on the electronic device can be reduced, thereby improving the user experience.

[0035] In a possible implementation of the second aspect, when the state information includes multiple types of information, the determination process of the first electronic device may specifically include: the first device screens multiple temporary first electronic devices in descending order of the priority corresponding to the state information, and obtains candidate first electronic devices that meet the preset conditions corresponding to the state information corresponding to the priority. Afterwards, when a candidate first electronic device that meets the preset conditions corresponding to the state information corresponding to the lowest priority is obtained, the first device uses the candidate first electronic device that meets the preset conditions corresponding to the state information corresponding to the lowest priority as the first electronic device.

[0036] In the present application, the first device compares the status information of the electronic devices in sequence according to a preset priority until the first electronic device is determined from the candidate first electronic devices. In this way, it can be ensured that the first electronic device is the device with the best overall status among the candidate first electronic devices, providing a basis for subsequent accurate recognition of voice commands.

[0037] In a possible implementation of the second aspect, after the first device determines the first electronic device, the method further includes: the first device can upload the determination result of the first electronic device to other devices in the intelligent voice sharing system.

[0038] In this application, after determining the first electronic device, the first device will upload the determination result of the first electronic device. In this way, all electronic devices in the voice sharing system can know the determination result of the first electronic device, which can not only reduce the waste of resources caused by the device that is not a temporary hub performing command analysis, but also reduce the situation where the target device repeatedly executes multiple action instructions due to sending action instructions to the target device multiple times.

[0039] In a third aspect, a voice control method is provided, which is applied to multiple electronic devices in a voice sharing system, wherein the wake-up words corresponding to the various electronic devices in the voice sharing system are different, and a communication connection is established between the electronic devices in the multiple electronic devices. In this method, at least one electronic device in the voice sharing system receives the voice command input by the user respectively. Afterwards, when the voice command includes the wake-up word and action information corresponding to any electronic device in the multiple electronic devices, the first electronic device in the at least one electronic device determines the identification and action instruction of the target device based on the voice command, wherein the target device refers to the electronic device corresponding to the wake-up word. Afterwards, the first electronic device sends an action instruction to the target device corresponding to the identification of the target device. Afterwards, the target device performs a corresponding action in response to the action instruction.

[0040] In this application, as long as any electronic device in the voice sharing system receives a voice command, the target device can be controlled to perform the corresponding action, and the target device does not need to receive the voice command issued by the user before it can perform the corresponding action. In this way, it can provide a basis for the subsequent target device to accurately respond to the user's action command, reduce the occurrence of action execution errors caused by unclear voice commands received by the target device, improve the accuracy of the target device's execution of actions, and thus improve the user's interactive experience. At the same time, it can also avoid the situation where the target device cannot successfully receive the voice command issued by the user.

[0041] In a possible implementation of the third aspect, when the electronic devices in the voice sharing system are electronic devices of the same manufacturer, each electronic device in the voice sharing system can install a voice sharing APP. Afterwards, each electronic device in the voice sharing system can log in to the account information of the same user to establish an intelligent voice sharing system.

[0042] In a possible implementation of the third aspect, when the electronic devices in the voice sharing system are electronic devices from different manufacturers, the electronic devices in the voice sharing system can install a specific APP, wherein the specific APP is an intelligent voice sharing APP specified by the electronic devices of each manufacturer. Afterwards, the electronic devices in the voice sharing system can log in to the specific APP according to the account number and password.

[0043] In the present application, electronic devices can establish a voice sharing system for electronic devices from different manufacturers by installing and logging into a specific APP to integrate all resources of the electronic devices in the voice sharing system. In other words, whether the electronic devices in the intelligent voice sharing system are from the same manufacturer or from different manufacturers, resources can be shared. This not only improves the interactivity of electronic devices from different manufacturers, but also increases the interconnection paths between different electronic devices from the same manufacturer, thereby improving the user experience.

[0044] In a possible implementation of the third aspect, the first electronic device is determined based on a selection operation of a user on electronic device information input on a first interface displayed by a second electronic device, or the first electronic device is determined based on a control operation of a user on electronic device information input on a first interface displayed by the second electronic device; wherein the second electronic device may be the same as or different from the first electronic device.

[0045] In a possible implementation manner of the third aspect, the first electronic device is an electronic device corresponding to the voice instruction received, the signal strength value of which meets the preset signal condition, among the multiple electronic devices.

[0046] In a fourth aspect, the present application provides an electronic device, comprising a microphone, a memory and one or more processors; the microphone, the memory and the processor are coupled; the microphone is used to collect voice data, the memory is used to store computer program code, and the computer program code comprises computer instructions; when the processor executes the computer instructions, the electronic device executes the method as described above.

[0065] The technical scheme in the embodiment of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiment of the present application. Wherein, in the description of the present application, unless otherwise specified, the "and / or" in the present application is only a kind of association relationship describing the associated object, indicating that there can be three kinds of relationships, for example, A and / or B, which can be represented by: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone, wherein A, B can be singular or plural. And, in the description of the present application, unless otherwise specified, "multiple" refers to two or more than two. "At least one of the following (individuals)" or its similar expressions refers to any combination of these items, including any combination of single items (individuals) or plural items (individuals). For example, at least one of a, b, or c (individuals) can be represented by: a, b, c, ab, ac, bc, or abc, wherein a, b, c can be single or multiple. In addition, in order to facilitate the clear description of the technical scheme of the embodiment of the present application, in the embodiment of the present application, the words "first", "second" and the like are used to distinguish the same items or similar items with substantially the same functions and effects. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that words such as "first" and "second" do not limit the quantity and execution order, and words such as "first" and "second" do not necessarily limit the difference. At the same time, in the embodiments of the present application, words such as "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations or explanations. Any embodiment or design described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the embodiments of the present application should not be interpreted as being more preferred or more advantageous than other embodiments or designs. Specifically, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present related concepts in a concrete way for easy understanding.

[0066] With the continuous development of electronic devices such as mobile phones and smart homes, voice recognition technology has been widely used in various usage scenarios of electronic devices. Specifically, electronic devices can perform corresponding actions by recognizing the voice commands (or voice signals) issued by users. For example, in a call scenario, if the user issues a voice command "Youyou, call mom", it means that the user wants to talk to mom. Therefore, the mobile phone can dial mom's mobile phone number according to the voice command to realize the call between the user and mom, that is, to realize the interaction between the user and the electronic device.

[0067] In some embodiments, if the distance between the user and the electronic device is far, or the ambient noise between the electronic device and the user is large, the voice signal received by the electronic device may be weak, which may cause the electronic device to be unable to accurately recognize the voice commands issued by the user, and may cause the electronic device to have action execution errors (i.e., response errors), or no response, affecting the user's experience.

[0068] In one example, for the above situation where the distance between the user and the electronic device is far, see Figure 1 As shown, taking the usage scenario as a smart home scenario and the electronic device as a mobile phone as an example, since the user is currently watching TV in the living room and the mobile phone is in the bedroom, the distance between the mobile phone and the user is far. Therefore, if the user needs to interact with the mobile phone by voice, the user needs to go to the bedroom, or the user needs to speak louder before he can control the mobile phone to perform corresponding actions by voice. In other words, the mobile phone needs to accurately and clearly recognize the voice commands issued by the user before it can complete the corresponding interactive functions.

[0069] In another example, in response to the situation where the environmental noise between the above-mentioned electronic device and the user's environment is relatively large, take the electronic device as a car (such as an on-board terminal in a car) as an example. During the driving of the car, if the user issues a voice command (for example, close the window) while the car is driving on a construction section, that is, the environmental noise between the electronic device and the user's environment is relatively large, the electronic device may not be able to accurately recognize the voice command issued by the user. Therefore, the user is required to manually control the car to perform the corresponding action (for example, the user operates the window closing device on the car), or the user is required to issue a corresponding voice command after the car passes the construction section to control the car to perform the corresponding window closing action.

[0070] In some embodiments, if the distance between the user and the electronic device is far, not only may the voice signal received by the electronic device be weak, but the electronic device may also fail to receive the voice signal output by the user, resulting in the electronic device being unable to perform the corresponding action in a timely manner. Alternatively, if the microphone of the electronic device is damaged, the electronic device may not be able to receive the voice signal sent by the user, which may result in the electronic device being unable to recognize the voice command sent by the user in a timely manner, and thus being unable to perform the corresponding action in a timely manner, resulting in a low user experience.

[0071] In one example, in the case where the distance between the user and the electronic device is far and the electronic device cannot receive the voice signal output by the user, see Figure 2 As shown, the usage scenario is a smart car scenario, and the electronic device is a car A. When the user leaves the car A (such as Figure 2The car A shown is located in a parking lot near the company, and the user is working in the company), that is, when the user is far away from the car A, the car A cannot receive the voice command issued by the user. Therefore, if the user needs to interact with the car A by voice, the distance between the user and the car A needs to be shortened. For example, the user needs to return to the car A before he can control the car A to perform the corresponding action by voice. In other words, the car A needs to accurately and clearly recognize the voice command issued by the user before it can complete the corresponding interactive function.

[0072] In another example, in response to the situation where the microphone of the above-mentioned electronic device is damaged and the electronic device cannot receive the voice signal output by the user, taking the electronic device as an example of a car, when the user issues a voice command, if the microphone in car A is damaged, then car A may not be able to receive the voice command issued by the user, and further cannot perform the corresponding action according to the voice command. Therefore, in order to enable car A to perform the corresponding action, the user may need to manually control car A to perform the corresponding action, resulting in a lower user experience.

[0073] Therefore, in response to the above problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a voice control method. In this method, when at least one electronic device receives a voice command issued by a user, a temporary hub (or a first electronic device) can parse the received voice command to obtain the identification and action instructions of the target device, wherein the at least one electronic device is an electronic device with an intelligent voice system and the same intelligent voice sharing system is established, and the temporary hub is an electronic device that receives the clearest voice command. Afterwards, the temporary hub can send the action instruction to the target device. Afterwards, the target device can execute the action instruction and send the execution status of the action instruction to the temporary hub.

[0074] In the embodiment of the present application, since the temporary hub is the electronic device that receives the clearest voice commands, after the user issues a voice command, the target device and action commands parsed by the temporary hub are accurate. In other words, the temporary hub can accurately identify the voice commands issued by the user, thereby ensuring that the target device can accurately execute the action commands issued by the user, reducing the occurrence of action execution errors due to unclear voice commands received by the target device, and improving the user's interactive experience.

[0075] Exemplarily, the electronic device can be any device with an intelligent voice system, such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a television, a speaker, a car, etc. The embodiments of the present application do not impose any restrictions on the specific type of the electronic device.

[0080] The processor 110 may also be provided with a memory for storing instructions and data. In some embodiments, the memory in the processor 110 is a cache memory. The memory may store instructions or data that the processor 110 has just used or cyclically used. If the processor 110 needs to use the instruction or data again, it may be directly called from the memory. This avoids repeated access, reduces the waiting time of the processor 110, and thus improves the efficiency of the system.

[0087] The modem processor may include a modulator and a demodulator. Among them, the modulator is used to modulate the low-frequency baseband signal to be sent into a medium-high frequency signal. The demodulator is used to demodulate the received electromagnetic wave signal into a low-frequency baseband signal. The demodulator then transmits the demodulated low-frequency baseband signal to the baseband processor for processing. After the low-frequency baseband signal is processed by the baseband processor, it is passed to the application processor. The application processor outputs a sound signal through an audio device (not limited to a speaker 170A, a receiver 170B, etc.), or displays an image or video through a display screen 194. In some embodiments, the modem processor may be an independent device.

[0092] The electronic device 100 implements the display function through a GPU, a display screen 194, and an application processor. The GPU is a microprocessor for image processing, which connects the display screen 194 and the application processor. The GPU is used to perform mathematical and geometric calculations for graphics rendering.

In some embodiments, the audio module 170 can be arranged in the processor 110, or some functional modules of the audio module 170 can be arranged in the processor 110.

[0099] The speaker 170A, also called a "speaker", is used to convert an audio electrical signal into a sound signal. The electronic device 100 can listen to music or listen to a hands-free call through the speaker.

[0106] Motor 191 can generate vibration prompts. Motor 191 can be used for incoming call vibration prompts, and can also be used for touch vibration feedback. Indicator 192 can be an indicator light.

[0107] The SIM card interface 195 is used to connect a SIM card.

The eSIM card can be embedded in the electronic device 100 and cannot be separated from the electronic device 100.

[0108] The present application embodiment provides a voice control method, which can be applied to any electronic device in an intelligent voice sharing system. Figure 4 As shown, the voice control method may include S401-S406.

[0109] S401, at least one electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system receives a voice command issued by a user.

[0110] The voice command (or voice signal) includes wake-up information (or wake-up word) and / or action information (or action command).

[0111] The above wake-up information is used to indicate the target device that the user wants to control, that is, to indicate the target device in the intelligent voice sharing system (or called voice sharing system) that ultimately needs to respond to the voice command and perform the corresponding action. The corresponding wake-up words between the electronic devices in the intelligent voice sharing system are different, so that the target device can be determined according to the wake-up word. The intelligent voice sharing system is a system for sharing voice commands received by all electronic devices, that is, as long as one electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system can receive the voice command issued by the user, the electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system can control the target device to perform the corresponding action according to the voice command.

[0112] The above-mentioned action information is used to indicate the action that the target device needs to perform. For example, the action information may be an outgoing call instruction, which is used to trigger the target device to make an outgoing call according to the called number or contact information in the outgoing call instruction, and display the corresponding outgoing call interface, wherein the contact information may include the contact name (such as mom) or the contact number. For example, the action information may also be a vehicle control instruction, which is used to trigger the target device to perform control according to the device information in the vehicle control instruction, wherein the device information may include the device name (such as air conditioning, car window, etc.).

[0113] In some embodiments, an intelligent voice sharing system can be established between electronic devices through an APP. In one example, for an electronic device, if the electronic device is a device with a display screen (such as a mobile phone, a computer, etc.), the user can download an intelligent voice sharing application (application, APP) in the electronic device (such as an application market in the electronic device). After that, the user can log in to the same account in the intelligent voice sharing APP to establish the intelligent voice sharing system.

[0114] In another example, if the electronic device is a device without a display screen (such as a speaker, router, etc.), that is, an electronic device that cannot install the above-mentioned smart voice sharing APP, the user can select an electronic device with a smart voice sharing APP from the smart voice sharing system. Afterwards, the user can manually add the electronic device without a display screen to the corresponding smart voice sharing APP in the electronic device with the smart voice sharing APP to realize the establishment of the smart voice sharing system.

[0115] In addition, it should be understood that the electronic devices in the intelligent voice sharing system can communicate with each other through a preset wireless communication method. Among them, the preset wireless communication method may include one or more of Bluetooth, WIFI, NFC, and mobile networks (such as 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, etc.).

[0116] In some embodiments, after the user outputs a voice command, each electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system has the ability to receive the voice command. For example, if the user wants to control the smart speaker in the intelligent voice sharing system to play music, the user can output the corresponding voice command, such as the voice command can be "speaker yoyo, play music". After that, the electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system can receive the voice command. The electronic device refers to an electronic device with a microphone turned on and capable of receiving the voice signal output by the user. The electronic device is not limited to a smart speaker, but may include other electronic devices (such as mobile phones, computers, etc.), that is, the target device (such as a smart speaker) does not need to receive the voice command issued by the user before it can perform the corresponding action. In this way, it can provide a basis for the subsequent target device to accurately respond to the user's action command, reduce the occurrence of action execution errors due to unclear voice commands received by the target device, and improve the accuracy of the target device's execution of actions, thereby improving the user's interactive experience. At the same time, it can also avoid the target device from failing to successfully receive the voice command issued by the user.

[0117] For another example, if a user wants to remotely control the vehicle to turn on the air conditioner, the user can trigger the voice function of the nearest device, where the nearest device refers to the electronic device closest to the user, such as a mobile phone carried by the user. Exemplarily, the way to trigger the voice function of the nearest device can be to manually click the target button (power button) to turn on the corresponding voice function, or to turn on the corresponding voice function through voice output (such as the user outputs the wake-up word of the nearest device). Afterwards, the user can directly output the corresponding voice command for the nearest device, such as the voice command can be "Car YoYo, turn on the air conditioner." Afterwards, the nearest device can receive the voice command to control Car YoYo to perform the action of turning on the air conditioner. In this way, remote control of electronic devices can be achieved, which provides convenience for users to remotely control devices.

[0118] For another example, the user wants to control the mobile phone to call the contact mom, and the mobile phone is the device closest to the user, that is, the user can only output voice commands to the mobile phone, then the user can directly click the power button to turn on the voice function of the mobile phone, and output the corresponding action command, such as the action command can be "call contact mom". Alternatively, the user can input the wake-up word of the mobile phone (such as mobile phone Yoyo) to turn on the voice function of the mobile phone. Afterwards, when the mobile phone receives the wake-up word input by the user, the mobile phone can output a reply message (such as where are you) by voice. Afterwards, the user can output the corresponding action command (such as call contact mom).

[0119] It is understandable that the wake-up words corresponding to each electronic device in the above-mentioned intelligent voice sharing system can be pre-set by the user according to his own habits, or can be the default of each electronic device, as long as each electronic device can be distinguished by the wake-up word, and there is no specific limitation, that is to say, the corresponding wake-up words of electronic devices are different. For example, the wake-up word corresponding to the smart speaker can be the speaker Yoyo, or Fangfang, etc. For another example, the wake-up word corresponding to the tablet can be the tablet Yoyo, or Miaomiao, etc.

[0120] Specifically, for each electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system, the electronic device (such as a system manager in the electronic device) can obtain the wake-up words corresponding to other electronic devices, so that the electronic device can know the wake-up words corresponding to any electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system (including the electronic device itself), thereby enabling the electronic device to determine the target device based on the wake-up words.

[0121] In some embodiments, in order to prevent users from waking up electronic devices by mistake, the present application can be combined with the sound wave recognition technology in voice recognition technology to determine whether the electronic device is executing a voice command issued by the user himself. In this way, the identity of the user can be determined, the occurrence of erroneous awakening of electronic devices due to non-owner identities can be reduced, and the safety of using electronic devices can be improved.

[0122] It should be noted that the various electronic devices in the above-mentioned intelligent voice sharing system can be electronic devices from the same manufacturer or from different manufacturers, without specific limitation. Among them, the same manufacturer means that all electronic devices in the intelligent voice sharing system correspond to the same manufacturer. Different manufacturers means that at least two electronic devices in the intelligent voice sharing system correspond to different manufacturers. For example, the intelligent voice sharing system includes device A, device B, and device C. Device A and device B correspond to the same manufacturer, and device B and device C correspond to different manufacturers, then it can be considered that the electronic devices in the intelligent voice sharing system correspond to different manufacturers.

[0123] In one example, if the at least one electronic device is an electronic device from the same manufacturer, each of the at least one electronic device can install the above-mentioned intelligent voice sharing APP. Afterwards, each of the at least one electronic device can log in to the account information of the same user to establish an intelligent voice sharing system. Exemplarily, taking a mobile phone as an example of an electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system, after the mobile phone has installed the intelligent voice sharing APP, if the application icon 11 corresponding to the intelligent voice sharing APP is clicked, the mobile phone can display the account login interface (such as Figure 5As shown in the figure), the user can enter the corresponding mobile phone number and account password in the account login interface, for example, the mobile phone number is 132****8888. After that, if the "Login" control is clicked, the mobile phone can display the electronic device information that has agreed to intelligent voice sharing (such as Figure 5 As shown), for example, information such as TV and speakers. Among them, the electronic devices that have agreed to intelligent voice sharing represent electronic devices belonging to the intelligent voice sharing system. Afterwards, if the "add" control A is clicked, the mobile phone can add electronic devices that establish the voice sharing function, that is, add electronic devices to the intelligent voice system.

[0124] In another example, if the at least one electronic device is an electronic device from a different manufacturer, the at least one electronic device can use a specific APP as the connection software, that is, the at least one electronic device can install the specific APP, wherein the specific APP is an intelligent voice sharing APP specified by the electronic devices of each manufacturer, that is, the specific APP is an APP that can be installed in the electronic devices of each manufacturer and can be run in the electronic device. After that, the electronic device can log in according to the account and password. After the login is successful, the electronic device can obtain the information of other electronic devices that log in to the account, so as to establish an intelligent voice sharing system with other electronic device information.

[0125] It can be understood that the intelligent voice sharing system in this embodiment can integrate all resources in the electronic device. That is to say, whether the electronic devices in the intelligent voice sharing system are from the same manufacturer or different manufacturers, resources can be shared. In this way, not only the interactivity between electronic devices from different manufacturers can be improved, but also the interconnection paths between different electronic devices from the same manufacturer are increased, thereby improving the user experience.

[0126] It should be noted that before establishing the intelligent voice sharing function, each electronic device needs to determine whether the user has authorized functions such as WIFI, Bluetooth, microphone, and speaker. When the access permission is turned on, that is, when the electronic device (such as the intelligent voice sharing APP or a specific APP in the electronic device) receives the user's authorization operation for functions such as WIFI, Bluetooth, microphone, and speaker, the electronic device can use WIFI, Bluetooth, microphone, and speaker.

[0127] For example, see Figure 6As shown, taking a mobile phone as an example, the mobile phone can display access permission prompt information, consent controls, and rejection controls on the device display interface of the smart voice sharing APP. Among them, the prompt information is used to ask the user whether the mobile phone can use functions such as WIFI, Bluetooth, microphone, and speaker. For example, the prompt information can be "whether to allow the current APP to use WIFI, Bluetooth, microphone, speaker, etc."

[0128] In one example, if the above-mentioned consent control is triggered by the user, it means that the user agrees that the smart voice sharing APP uses functions such as WIFI, Bluetooth, microphone, and speaker. Therefore, the smart voice sharing APP can use functions such as WIFI, Bluetooth, microphone, and speaker to provide a basis for the subsequent execution of the voice control method. In another example, if the above-mentioned rejection control is triggered by the user, it means that the user rejects the smart voice sharing APP to use functions such as WIFI, Bluetooth, microphone, and speaker. Therefore, the smart voice sharing APP will not use functions such as WIFI, Bluetooth, microphone, and speaker, such as receiving voice commands issued by the user.

[0129] In some embodiments, the above Figure 6 The interface asking the user whether to enable access rights is only an example, and the user can also determine whether to enable access rights in other ways. For example, the mobile phone can display function options (such as WIFI function, Bluetooth function, etc.) so that the user can turn off or on the corresponding function by turning off or on the function options. For example, if the WIFI control is triggered by the user, it means that the user has turned on the WIFI function, that is, the mobile phone (such as the smart voice sharing APP in the mobile phone) can send and / or receive voice commands issued by the user through WIFI.

[0130] S402, the temporary center in the intelligent voice sharing system analyzes the voice command to obtain an analysis result, wherein the analysis result includes an identification of the target device and an action instruction.

[0131] Among them, the above-mentioned temporary hub (or called the first electronic device) is an electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system.

[0132] Specifically, when the voice command includes wake-up information and action information, the temporary hub can analyze the voice command to obtain the target device identifier and the action command, wherein the target device identifier is used to indicate the target device.

[0133] Several possible methods for determining the above-mentioned temporary hub are introduced below.

[0134] In one implementation, the temporary hub can be an electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system specified by the user. In one example, the user can directly use the intelligent voice sharing APP to select any electronic device as a temporary hub, that is, the temporary hub is determined based on the electronic device information selected by the user on the first interface displayed on the second electronic device, wherein the second electronic device can be the same as the first electronic device or different, without specific limitation. For example, Figure 7 As shown, taking the second electronic device as a mobile phone and the first interface as an intelligent scene interface as an example, the mobile phone displays an intelligent scene interface, which includes information of each electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system. Among them, the information of the electronic device (or electronic device information) may include an identification (such as a name) of the electronic device. In addition, the information of the electronic device may also include an icon and / or location of the electronic device.

[0135] Specifically, the intelligent voice sharing system includes the local device, the TV in the living room, the TV in the master bedroom, the speakers in the living room, the speakers in the master bedroom, and the intelligent projector. The mobile phone receives the trigger operation 1 (or selection operation) input by the user for the information of any device in the intelligent scene interface (such as the TV icon in the living room), for example, the trigger operation 1 can be a double-click operation, a long press operation, and the like. Afterwards, the mobile phone responds to the trigger operation 1 and displays an authorization interface, wherein the authorization interface includes prompt information determined by the temporary hub, a confirmation control, and a cancellation control, and the prompt information is used to ask the user whether the electronic device clicked can be used as a temporary hub, for example, the prompt information can be "whether to use the electronic device as a temporary hub". If the user clicks the confirmation control, it means that the user agrees that the electronic device is used as a temporary hub, so the intelligent voice sharing system can directly determine the electronic device triggered by the user as a temporary hub; if the user clicks the cancellation control, it means that the user does not agree that the electronic device is used as a temporary hub, so the intelligent voice sharing system will not determine the electronic device clicked by the user as a temporary hub.

[0136] In another example, the intelligent voice sharing system can directly use the electronic device that receives the user's manual input operation as a temporary hub, that is, the temporary hub is determined based on the user's control operation of the electronic device information input corresponding to the control control selected on the second interface displayed by the second electronic device, wherein the second electronic device and the first electronic device can be the same or different, and there is no specific limitation. For example, Figure 8As shown, taking the second electronic device as a mobile phone and the second interface as an intelligent scene interface as an example, the mobile phone receives the user's click operation on the information of any device in the intelligent scene interface (such as the TV information in the living room), for example, the click operation can be a single click operation, etc. Afterwards, the mobile phone responds to the click operation and displays at least one control control, such as adjusting the volume, "switch control", etc. Afterwards, in response to the user's control operation on a certain control control in the current interface, the mobile phone can control the device to perform the action corresponding to the control control. For example, in response to the user's rightward drag operation on the button 12A on the progress bar 12, the mobile phone sends a volume increase instruction to the TV. In response to the volume increase instruction, the TV increases the volume value of the TV. Since the user inputs the operation on the mobile phone, it indicates that the mobile phone and the user are in the same position, so the mobile phone can accurately receive the voice command issued by the user, ensure the quality of the received voice command, and thus accurately recognize the voice command.

[0137] In another implementation, the temporary hub can be determined by the intelligent voice sharing system (such as any electronic device or designated electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system) according to the distance between the user and each electronic device. The closer the distance between the user and the electronic device, the higher the clarity of the voice command output by the user received by the electronic device, that is, the higher the accuracy, and thus the higher the accuracy of recognizing the voice command. Specifically, the electronic device can use the electronic devices in the intelligent voice sharing system whose distance from the user is less than a preset distance (such as 3 meters) as temporary hubs. Exemplarily, the distance between the user and the electronic device can be measured by an ultrasonic sensor.

[0138] Optionally, if there are multiple electronic devices whose distances to the user are less than the preset distance, any one of the multiple electronic devices whose distances to the user are less than the preset distance can be used as a temporary hub, or the electronic device closest to the user can be used as a temporary hub. Fig. 9 As shown, user R is sitting on the sofa in the living room, that is, all electronic devices in the home are in the same space as user R. Therefore, the intelligent voice sharing system can determine the corresponding temporary hub according to the actual location of the user. If there is only one electronic device whose distance from the user is less than the preset distance, the intelligent voice sharing system can directly use the electronic device as the temporary hub. For example, see Figure 2 As shown, after user Y parks car A in the parking lot, he goes to work in the company. That is, the distance between user Y and car A is far. Since user Y holds mobile phone F in his hand, that is, the distance between user Y and mobile phone F is close, the system manager can use mobile phone F as a temporary hub.

[0139] In another implementation, the temporary hub may be an electronic device with the best signal strength of the voice command received in the intelligent voice sharing system. Exemplary, the process of determining the temporary hub by the signal strength of the voice command may include: Fig.10 S10-S30 shown.

[0140] S10, a first device in the intelligent voice sharing system obtains a voice command received by other devices in the intelligent voice sharing system.

[0141] Specifically, after an electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system receives a voice command issued by a user, other devices in the intelligent voice sharing system except the first device can send the voice commands they received to the first device respectively. That is, the first device can obtain the voice commands received by all electronic devices in the intelligent voice sharing system, providing a basis for the subsequent determination of the temporary hub.

[0142] Among them, optionally, in this implementation, since the algorithm in the mobile phone is more accurate and the algorithm capability of the mobile phone is stronger, the mobile phone (such as the system manager in the mobile phone) can directly determine the mobile phone as the first device. In other implementations, the system manager of the mobile phone can also select any electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing as the first device, without specific limitation.

[0143] Optionally, the first device may be pre-set, and all electronic devices in the smart sharing system may obtain information about the first device (such as an identifier of the first device).

[0144] It can be understood that after the intelligent voice sharing system is established, all electronic devices in the intelligent voice sharing system can be in a voice pickup state, that is, all electronic devices can pick up the corresponding voice signal. Exemplarily, when a user sends a voice signal, all electronic devices can receive the voice signal sent by the user. Afterwards, each electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system can parse the received voice signal to obtain a digital signal. Afterwards, other devices in the intelligent voice sharing system can send the digital signal to the first device separately through wireless communications such as WIFI or Bluetooth.

[0145] S20: For each voice command received by the other device, the first device determines, according to a voice recognition algorithm, a signal strength value corresponding to the voice command received by the other device.

[0146] Among them, the above-mentioned speech recognition algorithm refers to an algorithm that calculates the signal strength of the voice command based on two evaluation indicators: speech loudness and speech quality. The speech loudness is used to indicate the volume of the sound corresponding to the voice command. In other words, the speech loudness can indicate the distance between the electronic device that receives the voice command (i.e., the electronic device corresponding to the voice command) and the user. The larger the speech loudness value, the closer the distance between the electronic device corresponding to the voice command and the user. The speech quality is used to indicate the clarity of the voice command. In other words, the voice quality can be used to determine whether the received voice command is affected by noise. That is, the larger the voice quality value, the less the voice command is affected by noise, and the higher the accuracy of the electronic device's recognition. In addition, the above-mentioned speech recognition algorithm can also use speech loudness or speech quality to evaluate the signal strength of speech quality.

[0147] In some embodiments, when the first device receives a digital signal sent by other devices in the intelligent voice sharing system, the first device can parse the voice signal for each received voice command to obtain a digital signal, that is, the first device includes the digital signal received by all electronic devices in the intelligent voice sharing system. Afterwards, the intelligent voice sharing APP in the first device can calculate each digital signal according to the above-mentioned voice recognition algorithm to obtain a signal strength value corresponding to the digital signal.

[0148] In other embodiments, when the first device receives a voice command sent by other devices in the intelligent voice sharing system, the first device can parse each voice command received to obtain a digital signal. Afterwards, the intelligent voice sharing APP in the first device can calculate the digital signal according to the voice recognition algorithm to obtain a signal strength value corresponding to the voice command. It can be understood that the process of parsing the voice signal by the above-mentioned electronic device can be performed before the signal is sent or after the signal is sent, and there is no specific limitation.

[0149] It should be noted that when the electronic device receives the wake-up information sent by the user, the first device can calculate the wake-up information according to the above-mentioned voice recognition algorithm to obtain the signal strength value corresponding to the wake-up information. In this way, the intelligent voice sharing system can determine the corresponding signal strength value at the same time as the user sends the action information, without having to wait until the user outputs the action information to calculate the signal strength, which provides a basis for the subsequent timely determination of the temporary hub, thereby improving the efficiency of the temporary hub determination.

[0150] S30, the first device uses the electronic device corresponding to the voice command with the highest signal strength value as a temporary hub.

[0151] In an embodiment of the present application, after calculating the signal strength value corresponding to the voice command received by each other device (briefly described as the signal strength value corresponding to each voice command), the first device can determine the signal strength value with the highest numerical value from the signal strength values ​​corresponding to each voice command, and use the electronic device corresponding to the voice command with the highest signal strength value and the electronic device that receives the voice command with the highest signal strength value as the best device (i.e., a temporary hub), wherein the best device is the electronic device that receives the strongest voice signal at this time in the above-mentioned intelligent voice sharing system, and it can receive the voice commands output by the user in a timely and accurate manner.

[0152] In some embodiments, the first device can determine the signal strength value with the highest numerical value by sorting the signal strength value corresponding to each voice command according to a preset order. The preset order can be an arrangement order from large to small, or an arrangement order from small to large, and is not specifically limited. For example, if the preset order is an arrangement order from large to small, it means that the signal strength value at the first position is the highest, so the first device can use the signal strength value at the first position as the signal strength value with the highest numerical value; if the preset order is an arrangement order from small to large, it means that the signal strength value at the final position is the highest, so the first device can use the signal strength value at the final position as the signal strength value with the highest numerical value.

[0153] In some embodiments, the first device may also use other methods to determine the temporary hub according to the signal strength value. For example, the first device may use the electronic device corresponding to the voice instruction with a signal strength value greater than a preset strength value as the temporary hub.

[0154] In some embodiments, before determining the temporary hub, the first device needs to determine the number of voice commands whose signal strength values ​​meet the preset conditions. Exemplarily, the signal strength value meeting the preset conditions may be the highest signal strength value, or the signal strength value being greater than the preset strength value (such as 40dBA), or the signal strength value being within the preset strength range (such as 35-45dBA), etc., without specific limitation.

[0155] Afterwards, when the number is 1, the first device can directly use the electronic device corresponding to the voice instruction whose signal strength value meets the preset conditions as a temporary hub. When the number is greater than 1, such as the number of voice instructions with the highest signal strength values ​​is multiple, indicating that there are multiple voice instructions that meet the preset conditions, the first device can use the electronic device corresponding to the voice instruction whose signal strength value meets the preset conditions as a candidate temporary hub. Afterwards, the first device can select the best device from the candidate temporary hubs as a temporary hub based on the status information of the candidate temporary hubs.

[0156] Exemplarily, the above-mentioned status information may include at least one of: battery life status information of the electronic device, operating status information of the electronic device, and the number of background running programs of the electronic device. It is understandable that users and electronic device manufacturers can define new status information according to actual conditions. For example, the status information may also be communication signal strength (such as WIFI signal strength, Bluetooth signal strength, etc.), device response speed, etc., which is not limited here.

[0157] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned status information includes a type of information, and the first device can directly determine the best device from multiple electronic devices corresponding to voice instructions whose signal strength values ​​meet the preset conditions corresponding to the status information based on the status information.

[0158] In one example, the above-mentioned status information includes battery life status information of the electronic device, and the battery life status information indicates the remaining usage time of the battery. Accordingly, the preset conditions corresponding to the battery life status information may include that the electronic device is in charging mode or that the remaining power of the electronic device is the highest. Accordingly, the above-mentioned first device can use the electronic device in charging mode or the electronic device with the highest remaining power value among multiple candidate temporary hubs as the best device. For example, the candidate temporary hubs include device A, device B, and device C. If the power corresponding to device A is 76%, the power corresponding to device B is 45%, and the power corresponding to device C is 90%, then the first device can use device C as the best device, that is, device C is a temporary hub.

[0159] In one example, the above-mentioned status information includes operating status information of the electronic device, and the operating status information indicates whether the electronic device is being used by the user. Accordingly, the preset condition corresponding to the operating status information may include that the electronic device is in an idle state, wherein the idle state refers to the state corresponding to the electronic device that is not used by the user. Correspondingly, the above-mentioned first device can use the electronic device in an idle state among multiple candidate temporary hubs as the best device. For example, the candidate temporary hubs include device A, device B, and device C. If device A and device B are both in a busy state, that is, device A and device B are both used by the user, and device C is in an idle state, the first device can use device C as the best device, that is, device C is a temporary hub.

[0160] In another example, the above-mentioned status information includes the number of background running programs of the electronic device, and the number of background running programs indicates the number of applications running in the background of the electronic device. Accordingly, the preset condition corresponding to the number of background running programs may include that the number of background running programs in the electronic device is the least, or the number of background running programs in the electronic device is less than a preset number (such as 2). Accordingly, the above-mentioned first device can use the electronic device with the least number of background running programs among multiple candidate temporary hubs as the best device. For example, the candidate temporary hubs include device A, device B, and device C. If the number of background running programs of device A is 3, the number of background running programs of device B is 5, and the number of background running programs of device C is 1, then the first device can use device C as the best device, that is, device C is a temporary hub.

[0161] In other embodiments, the above-mentioned status information includes multiple types of information, and the above-mentioned first device can sort the status information according to a preset priority, and compare the status information of the electronic devices in sequence until the best device is determined from the candidate temporary hubs. Among them, the preset priority means that when the status information includes multiple types of information, a corresponding level is set for each type of status information, and the first device preferentially selects the candidate temporary hub corresponding to the status information with the highest priority as the best device.

[0162] In another example, if the status information includes battery life status information of the electronic device and operating status information of the electronic device, the first device may determine the best device from a plurality of candidate temporary hubs based on the priority corresponding to the battery life status information and the priority corresponding to the operating status information. Exemplarily, the first device may screen the plurality of temporary candidate hubs in order of priority from high to low, according to the status information corresponding to the priority, to obtain a candidate temporary hub that meets the preset conditions corresponding to the status information corresponding to the priority. After obtaining a candidate temporary hub that meets the preset conditions corresponding to the status information corresponding to the lowest priority, the first device may use the candidate temporary hub that meets the preset conditions corresponding to the status information corresponding to the lowest priority as a temporary hub.

[0163] For example, the remaining power of device A is 94% and it is in a busy state, the remaining power of device B is 40% and it is in an idle state, and the remaining power of device C is 86% and it is in an idle state. The priority corresponding to the battery life status information is lower than the priority corresponding to the running status information. Therefore, the first device can first screen the candidate temporary hubs that meet the preset conditions corresponding to the running status information, and the preset conditions corresponding to the running status information are that the electronic device is in an idle state. The first device determines that both device B and device C are in an idle state, and device A is in a busy state. Therefore, device A does not meet the preset conditions corresponding to the running status information. In other words, the candidate temporary hubs that meet the preset conditions corresponding to the running status information include device B and device C. Afterwards, the first device can continue to compare based on the battery life status information to determine the candidate temporary hubs that meet the preset conditions corresponding to the battery life status information. The preset conditions corresponding to the battery life status information include that the remaining power of the electronic device is the highest. Since the remaining power of device C is higher than the remaining power of device B, the candidate temporary hubs that meet the preset conditions corresponding to the battery life status information include device C. The priority corresponding to the battery life status information is the lowest. Therefore, device C is a candidate temporary hub that meets the preset conditions corresponding to the status information corresponding to the lowest priority. The first device can use device C as a temporary hub.

[0164] It should be noted that, if there are electronic devices with the same priority conditions among the electronic devices corresponding to the multiple voice commands with the highest signal strength values, the first device may select any electronic device that meets the priority conditions as the best device.

[0165] In some embodiments, after the first device determines the temporary hub, the first device can upload the determination result of the temporary hub to other devices in the intelligent voice sharing system, so that all devices in the intelligent voice sharing system are aware of the determination result of the temporary hub. This can not only reduce the waste of resources caused by command analysis by devices that are not temporary hubs, but also reduce the situation where the target device repeatedly executes multiple action commands due to sending action commands to the target device multiple times.

[0166] In one implementation, the intelligent voice sharing system can determine a temporary hub according to the target working mode, wherein the target working mode can be a specified mode or an intelligent mode. Specifically, if the target working mode is a specified mode, it means that the user specifies an electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system as a temporary hub, and the temporary hub can directly analyze the voice command; if the target working mode is an intelligent mode, it means that the user has not specified any electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system as a temporary hub, and the first device can determine the temporary hub by the above-mentioned method of determining the signal strength value. In other words, the target working mode is determined after multiple electronic devices establish an intelligent voice sharing system. Afterwards, when an electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system receives a voice command issued by a user, the intelligent voice sharing system can directly determine the temporary hub according to the target working mode, which provides a basis for the subsequent temporary hub to analyze the voice command.

[0167] Optionally, if the above-mentioned target working mode is a designated mode, indicating that the user designates an electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system as a temporary hub, then other devices in the intelligent voice sharing system except the temporary hub may not be in a voice pickup state. In other words, even if other devices can receive voice commands issued by the user, other devices will not pick up the voice commands. In this way, unnecessary waste of resources caused by picking up voice commands can be reduced.

[0168] It can be understood that by determining the temporary hub through the target working mode, the intelligent coordination capability of all electronic devices in the intelligent voice sharing system can be improved. That is to say, as long as one electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system can receive the voice command with the strongest signal strength, the target device can complete the corresponding action without the target device receiving the voice command issued by the user, thereby increasing the usage scenarios of the intelligent voice sharing system and improving the user experience.

[0169] S403, the temporary center sends the above action instructions to the target device.

[0170] Specifically, after the temporary hub determines the identification and action instructions of the target device, the temporary hub can send the action instructions to the target device via WIFI, Bluetooth or mobile communication network (such as 4G, 5G, etc.).

[0171] In some embodiments, the actions performed by the temporary hub described above may be performed by an intelligent voice system in the temporary hub.

[0172] S404: The target device executes the above action instruction.

[0173] In some embodiments, when the target device receives an action instruction issued by the temporary center, the target device can respond to the action instruction and perform a corresponding action. For example, if the voice instruction is a speaker control instruction, and the speaker control instruction is "speaker Yoyo, play music", then after receiving the action instruction of "play music", the speaker Yoyo can perform the action of playing music. For another example, if the action instruction is a vehicle control instruction, and the vehicle control instruction is "vehicle Yoyo, turn on the air conditioner and turn off the ventilation", then after receiving the action instruction of "turn on the air conditioner and turn off the ventilation", the vehicle Yoyo can control the "air conditioner" device to turn on.

[0174] S405, the target device uploads the execution result of the above action instruction to the temporary center.

[0175] The execution result of the action instruction may include completion status information and failure status information. The completion status information is used to indicate that the target device has completed the action corresponding to the action instruction. The failure status information is used to indicate that the target device has failed to respond to the action instruction.

[0176] Specifically, if the target device has completed the action instruction, the target device can upload the completion status information to the temporary hub. If the target device fails to execute the action instruction, the target device can upload the failure status information to the temporary hub.

[0177] In some embodiments, the execution result of the above-mentioned action instruction may also include unfinished state information, and the unfinished state information is used to indicate that the target device is executing the action corresponding to the action instruction. Exemplarily, when the user issues an action instruction, the action instruction is in an unfinished state until the target device completes the action instruction, and the target device converts the execution result of the action instruction from the unfinished state information to the completed state information, or until the target device determines that the action instruction cannot be completed, and the target device converts the execution result of the action instruction from the unfinished state information to the failed state information. In other words, only when it is determined that the target device has completed the action instruction or that the target device cannot execute the action instruction, the target device uploads the execution result of the action instruction to the temporary center.

[0178] S406, the temporary center outputs the execution result of the above action instruction.

[0179] Specifically, when the temporary center receives the execution result of an action instruction issued by the target device, the temporary center can output the execution result of the action instruction through voice or text, so that the user can know the execution result in time and avoid the user having doubts about whether the voice instruction is executed.

[0180] In one example, the above action command is a vehicle control command, and the vehicle control command is "turn on the air conditioner and turn off the ventilation". If the target device is executing the action command, the temporary center can output "turning on the air conditioner and turning off the ventilation" by voice; if the target device has completed the action command, the temporary center can output "turning on the air conditioner and turning off the ventilation" by voice; if the target device cannot complete the action command, the temporary center can output "sorry, failed to turn on the air conditioner and turn off the ventilation" by voice. In this way, the execution result of the action command can be notified in a timely manner to improve the user experience.

[0181] In another example, the above action instruction is an outgoing call instruction, and the outgoing call instruction is "call mom from address book". If the target device has dialed "mom", the temporary hub can display a prompt message "calling contact mom for you" on the current interface of the temporary hub in text form. If the target device cannot complete the action instruction, the temporary hub can display a prompt message "Sorry, contact mom was not called for you" on the current interface of the temporary hub in text form, so that the user can manually call mom or issue a voice instruction again, reducing the user's waiting time.

[0182] Optionally, the target device can also send the telephone information (such as telephone number, contact name) of the called user (such as mother) to the temporary hub, and the temporary hub responds to the telephone information (or called number information) and can display the outgoing call interface (such as Fig.11 As shown), wherein the called number information is displayed on the outgoing call interface, that is, the outgoing call interface includes the called number information (such as the called number, the region to which the called number belongs, etc.).

[0183] Optionally, after the call is connected, the user can also use the temporary hub to continue the call with the called party. The call process is as follows: First, Fig.12 As shown in FIG. 1 , the user sends a wake-up message “Hello, mobile phone Yoyo” in the living room. Afterwards, the electronic devices (such as Fig.12 The mobile phone, smart speaker, tablet computer, smart TV and laptop computer in the intelligent voice sharing system respectively receive the wake-up information sent by the user. Afterwards, for each electronic device in the intelligent voice sharing system, the electronic device can parse the received wake-up information to obtain a digital signal. Afterwards, the smart speaker, tablet computer, smart TV and laptop computer can send the corresponding digital signal to the mobile phone via WIFI or Bluetooth. Afterwards, when the mobile phone receives the above-mentioned multiple digital signals, the intelligent voice sharing APP of the mobile phone can calculate all the digital signals separately according to the voice recognition algorithm to obtain multiple signal strength values. Afterwards, if Fig.13 As shown, the mobile phone can use the multiple signal strength values ​​to select the electronic device corresponding to the voice command with the highest signal strength value as the best device, that is, determine Fig.12 as the best device and identifies the tablet as the temporary hub.

[0184] Afterwards, if the user issues an action command, the tablet computer can analyze the action command in combination with the above wake-up information, that is, analyze the voice command "Hello, mobile phone Yoyo, address book calls mom" issued by the user to obtain an analysis result, wherein the analysis result is used to indicate that the target device corresponding to the user command is the mobile phone, and the action command is address book calls mom. Afterwards, the tablet computer can send the action command "address book calls mom" to the mobile phone. Afterwards, the mobile phone can execute the action command "address book calls mom", that is, the mobile phone dials mom's phone number. Afterwards, when the call is connected, the mobile phone can transfer the call to the tablet computer, that is, the mother's call interface is displayed on the tablet computer, and the user can talk to mom through the tablet computer.

[0185] Among them, optionally, the tablet computer and the called party (i.e., the called device corresponding to "Mom") actually communicate with the called party through the mobile phone. After receiving the audio data sent by the called party, the mobile phone sends the audio data to the tablet computer. Afterwards, the tablet computer can play the audio data so that the user of the tablet computer can receive the speech content of the called party. Similarly, the tablet computer will send the audio data to the mobile phone, and after receiving the audio data sent by the tablet computer, the mobile phone will send the audio data to the called party. Afterwards, the called party can play the audio data so that the user of the called party can receive the speech content of the calling party, thereby realizing communication between the calling and called users.

[0186] In some other embodiments, the user specifies that the temporary hub is a mobile phone as an example, see Fig.14As shown in FIG. 1 , the process is as follows: First, the user issues a voice command "Car Yoyo, turn on the air conditioner, turn off the ventilation". Afterwards, the mobile phone can directly analyze the voice command "Car Yoyo, turn on the air conditioner, turn off the ventilation" issued by the user to obtain an analysis result, wherein the analysis result is used to indicate that the target device corresponding to the user's command is the car, and the action command is to turn on the air conditioner and turn off the ventilation. Afterwards, the mobile phone can send the action command of "turn on the air conditioner, turn off the ventilation" to the car through WIFI, Bluetooth or mobile network. Afterwards, the car can execute the action command of "turn on the air conditioner, turn off the ventilation". Afterwards, when the car completes the action command, it sends the completion status of the action command to the mobile phone. Afterwards, the mobile phone can output "The air conditioner has been turned on for you, and the ventilation has been turned off" by voice. In this way, not only can the remote control of the car be realized, but also the situation where the car cannot receive the voice command issued by the user due to the failure of the hardware in the car (such as the microphone) can be reduced, thereby improving the reliability of the intelligent voice sharing system.
