[0040] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments.

Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the application claimed for protection, but merely represents the selected embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application. Some embodiments of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and the various features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0041] Example

[0042] See also Figure 1 , the robot control system includes a login module, an interaction module, a workbench module, a personal information module and a communication module;

[0043] like Figure 6 As shown, the login module is used to issue user account passwords, randomly generate verification codes, and verify user information;

[0044] Exemplarily, the login module

[0045] like Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the interaction module is used to bind and connect the robot, issue control instructions to the robot, and manage the robot equipment;

[0046] The interaction module includes a robot binding unit, a robot control unit and a device management unit;

[0047] Robot binding unit, used to bind the robot and switch the robot to create tasks;

[0048] The robot control unit is used to select the corresponding task and issue control instructions according to the currently bound robot;

[0049] Device management unit, used to view connected devices and edit device information.

[0050] The robot system uses Uniapp as the development framework.

[0051] Demonstratively, the interactive module can bind multiple robots at the same time, and multiple robots can be controlled using one system. Using Uniapp as a development framework, it can be compatible with multiple systems, and quickly build interfaces to simplify development steps. Using the Uniapp cross-platform development framework, it provides a rich component library that can quickly build interfaces. Use the u-view component library to customize theme styles, add buttons, lists, cards and other components, and use some of its common animation effects to add more interactive experiences to the application. Use a fast and concise JavaScript library jQuery, which is mainly used to simplify DOM operations, handle events, asynchronous requests, and animations.

[0052] The workflow of the interactive module is:

[0053] On the home page, determine whether the required robot device is available. If so, select the corresponding robot device. Otherwise, scan the QR code to add the robot device and bind it.

[0054] After selecting the corresponding robot device, use Bluetooth to search for the robot device. When the corresponding robot device is searched, select and send the control command; if the corresponding robot device is not searched, search for the device again;

[0055] When the robot is bound, you can view the bound device. At the same time, you can edit the information of the bound device, including modifying the image and name. If you modify the bound device information, submit the modified content to complete the modification of the bound device. If you do not modify the bound device, return to view the bound device.

[0056] like Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, the workbench module is used to manage tasks for the robot and set scheduled tasks, including new tasks, task records and today's tasks;

[0057] Demonstratively, the workbench can create new tasks and customize tasks according to personal preferences and actual conditions. At the same time, historical work records can be viewed to achieve real-time control of the robot's work; tasks can also be pre-set and scheduled for the robot to complete tasks. Pre-set tasks can be modified and deleted. The workflow of the workbench module is as follows:

[0058] Enter the workbench, and you can choose to create a new task, task record and today's task;

[0059] Task history can be used to view and delete historical tasks;

[0060] Today's tasks are pre-set tasks. You can view the content displayed on the current interface and view all records. You can delete or modify today's tasks.

[0061] like Figure 4 and Fig. 9 As shown, the personal information module is used to store, view and modify personal information related information and set the system server contact information;

[0062] The personal information module includes feedback unit, personal information unit and password modification unit;

[0063] Feedback unit, used to report system problems and check after-sales contact information and email addresses;

[0064] The personal data unit is used to display and modify the user's personal data, including name, gender, mobile phone number and email address;

[0065] The password modification unit is used to modify the password according to the personal information; wherein the new password and the old password cannot be the same.

[0066] For example, the usage process of the personal information module is as follows:

[0067] Enter the My page, where you can view your personal information, including your account, name, and role. In the Personal Information section, you can modify your account picture, name, gender, phone number, and email address. After modifying your personal information, submit the modified content. If there is no modification, return to the My page directly.

[0068] Enter the password change interface, enter the new password and the old password at the same time and submit. If the new password is the same as the old password, re-enter the password or return to the My interface; if the new password is different from the old password, the password change is successful;

[0069] Feedback unit: enter the feedback form, fill in the feedback information, upload the problem picture and submit it. You can also directly obtain the contact information of the system server to provide feedback.

[0070] When the user switches accounts, he can log out and return directly to the login interface.

[0071] The communication module is used to realize the communication between the various modules of the system and the robot.

[0072] The communication module can use Bluetooth and wireless network for transmission, avoiding the unstable communication caused by unstable network in the traditional method of using only network transmission. At the same time, the wireless network can be connected remotely and the robot can be remotely controlled.

[0073] Based on the same inventive concept, please refer to Figure 5 The present invention also proposes a robot control method, comprising the following steps:

[0074] Log in to the robot control system and establish a connection with the robot control system;

[0075] Use the interactive module to connect the robot and select control instructions;

[0076] Transmit control instructions to the robot and control the robot to complete the corresponding instructions.

[0077] The control instructions are transmitted to the robot through network communication and Bluetooth.

[0078] For the specific implementation process of the above system, please refer to a robot control system provided in an embodiment of the present application, which will not be repeated here.
