[0021] To make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that in the present application, many technical details are proposed in order to enable the reader to better understand the present application. However, even without these technical details and various changes and modifications based on the following embodiments, the technical scheme claimed in the present application can also be implemented. The division of the following embodiments is for the convenience of description, and the specific implementation of the present application should not be construed as any limitation, and the various embodiments can be combined and referenced with each other under the premise of no contradiction.

[0022] With the development of science and technology and economy, more and more families choose smart home appliances and start smart home life. Young people can quickly accept and learn the use of smart home, but it is difficult for the elderly to quickly learn to use smart home. In addition, the current aging problem is becoming more and more serious. A smart home interaction design based on aging-friendly design has emerged. Users can adjust parameters or scenes to batch control devices through smart home APP, but for vulnerable groups such as the elderly and children, the learning cost of using mobile phone control is too high, and it is not convenient to achieve the goal quickly.

[0023] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention proposes a method for generating a sub-account control panel. The implementation details of the method for determining the bandwidth of this embodiment are specifically described below. The following content is only the implementation details provided for easy understanding and is not necessary for implementing this solution.

[0024] Embodiment 1:

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the present application provides a method for generating a sub-account control panel, and the method system is applied to electronic production equipment, and the electronic production equipment can be a server, a mobile terminal, a computer, a cloud platform, etc. The functions implemented by the production equipment data processing provided in the embodiment of the present application can be implemented by calling the program code by the processor of the electronic production equipment, wherein the program code can be stored in a computer storage medium. The method for generating the sub-account control panel includes:

[0026] Step S1: Obtain the target population set by the management account for the newly created sub-account.

[0027] At present, in addition to controlling the power on and off of smart home devices on a terminal device, the operating parameters of various smart home devices can also be controlled as needed. However, due to the development of smart homes, more and more smart home devices are bound to terminal devices, and the control methods or control logics of different smart home devices are different. Of course, this design method enables young people to better experience the convenience of life brought by smart homes, but for the elderly or children, such settings make it impossible for them to use smart home devices well, and even to the point of being unable to use them. Therefore, in order to improve the user experience of different people, this application proposes a control method for a sub-account control panel. This application generates different control panels for different groups of people, so that the elderly and children can achieve one-click control of any smart home, thereby improving the user experience of smart home devices.

[0028] Generally, young people in a family can use various smart homes well, so generally young people will have a management account. In order to enable other family members to use smart homes, various sub-accounts need to be generated for family members to use. However, in order to enable family members to use smart home devices well, it is necessary to generate targeted control panels for family members of different age groups. Therefore, before generating the control panel in this application, it is necessary to first obtain the target population set by the management account for the newly created sub-account.

[0029] Step S2: Determine an interface template for the newly created sub-account according to the target population, wherein the interface template at least includes an interface module for setting the smart home status.

[0030] In order to use different control panels for different target groups, a template correspondence table is preset in this application. Different modules corresponding to different groups of people are stored in the template correspondence table. Therefore, after determining the target group, the corresponding interface module can be determined according to the target group and the template correspondence table. All interface templates have an interface module, and the same section includes a device control area and a scene control area. The interface templates for the elderly or children also include: a sharing area and a help area.

[0031] Step S3: for the target population, obtaining the home appliances to be deployed and their equipment operating parameters preset for the general section from the management account.

[0032] Among the several control areas of the interface module, the device control area and the scene control area are mainly involved in the control of smart home devices. Among them, the device control area is mainly for controlling a single smart home device, while the scene control area mainly reflects the linkage control of each smart home device. Therefore, in this application, it is necessary to preset each smart home device that needs to be controlled and the corresponding device operating parameters in advance according to the target population through the management account, among which the smart home devices and device operating parameters preset by the management account include each smart home device and its device operating parameters in the device control area, as well as the association relationship between each smart home device in the scene control area and the device operating parameters of each associated device.

[0033] Therefore, in some embodiments, step S3 "obtaining, for the target population, from the management account the home appliances to be deployed and their device operating parameters preset for the general section" includes:

[0034] Step S31: for the target population, obtaining the home appliances to be arranged and their equipment operating parameters preset for the equipment control area from the management account.

[0035] Step S32: for the target group, obtaining the home appliances to be arranged and their equipment operation parameters preset for the scene control area from the management account.

[0036] Step S4: Associating the home appliances to be arranged and their equipment operating parameters with the buttons in the general section to generate a control panel for the newly created sub-account.

[0037] After obtaining each smart home device to be deployed and its device operating parameters, it is also necessary to associate the smart home devices and operating parameters with the corresponding buttons in the device control area and scene control to generate a control panel.

[0038] Therefore, in some embodiments, step S4 "associating the home appliances to be arranged and their equipment operating parameters with the buttons in the general section to generate the control panel of the newly created sub-account" includes:

[0039] Step S41: generating a device button corresponding to each of the home appliances to be arranged in the device control area.

[0040] Step S42: Associating the device operating parameters corresponding to each of the home appliances to be arranged with the corresponding device buttons.

[0041] In the device control area, a corresponding device button will be generated for each home appliance to be arranged, and the device operating parameters corresponding to the home appliance to be arranged will be associated and bound with the device button, so that after each device button is pressed, the corresponding device can work with the device operating parameters.

[0042] Step S43: generating at least one scene button in the scene control area.

[0043] Step S44: for each scene button, at least two of the home appliances to be arranged and their device operating parameters are associated with the scene button.

[0044] The existence of scenes enables users to control multiple home devices at one go. For example, in the home scene, there are tasks such as opening the door, turning on the air conditioner, and closing the curtains. The related smart home devices are lights, air conditioners, and curtains. When the home scene button is clicked, the lights, air conditioners, and curtains will operate according to the preset device operating parameters. Therefore, there is at least one scene button in the scene control area, and this scene button is associated with at least two home devices to be arranged and their device operating parameters.

[0045] In addition, for the elderly and children, since they are not familiar with the use of smart home devices, a help control area is also set in this application. Furthermore, a help function button needs to be generated in the help control area on the control panel generated for children and the elderly.

[0046] Therefore, in some embodiments, step S4 "generating the control panel of the newly created sub-account" includes:

[0047] Step S45: Generate a help function button in the help control area.

[0048] The help button is mainly used by users of sub-accounts who want to ask for help from the management account, and the ways of asking for help include text help and phone help. If the user of a sub-account clicks the help button only once within a certain period of time, a help message will be sent to the management user according to the preset communication process to help the user of the sub-account solve the problem. If it is detected that the help button has been clicked three times within a certain period of time, a call will be initiated to the management account, so that the user of the management account can obtain the difficulties encountered by the user of the sub-account through the call and help him solve the difficulties.

[0049] In addition, this application also sets up a shared control area for the elderly and children. The existence of the shared control area enables users of sub-accounts to share the control panel with friends, allowing friends to temporarily participate in the control of smart home devices at home.

[0050] Therefore, in some embodiments, step S4 "generating the control panel of the newly created sub-account" further includes:

[0051] Step S46: Generate a sharing button in the sharing control area.

[0052] When the share button is clicked, the sharing judgment process can be triggered. In the sharing judgment process, it is mainly through detecting whether there are other terminal devices that have a direct communication connection with the current terminal device of the logged-in sub-user. The direct communication connection here can be a connection method such as Bluetooth, hotspot or Internet. When it is detected that there is a target terminal device that is directly connected to the current terminal device, the control panel of the sub-account can be projected onto the target terminal device, so that the holder of the target terminal device can also experience the convenience of life brought by smart home devices. Of course, in order to prevent friends from accidentally touching the control panel after leaving, causing unexpected changes in smart home devices at home, it is also necessary to detect the connection status between the target terminal device and the current terminal device in real time. When it is detected that the connection between the target terminal device and the current terminal device is disconnected, the control panel projected on the target terminal device is revoked.

[0053] Considering that the senses of the elderly are not as sensitive as those of the young, each button of the present invention has vibration feedback. In addition to page changes and sound prompts, the elderly can also feel tactile prompts to enhance the feedback effect of clicks. Moreover, the management account in this application can adjust the smart home devices that can be controlled by each sub-account and the device operation parameters of each smart home device in real time according to actual conditions.

[0054] This application solves the problems of high learning cost of smart home APP, difficulty in learning to use and control quickly and proficiently, and unfriendly to the elderly and children. It makes smart home not just a hobby of contemporary young people, solves the different needs of various families for smart home, and allows people of different ages and conditions to enjoy the convenience brought by modern technology.
