Furthermore, based on this remote control, a directional smart home system is also provided.

[0029] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0030] Embodiment of the directional smart home system:

[0031] A directional smart home system in this embodiment specifically includes a remote control, several electronic tags, and a smart home control system. The specific architecture is as Figure 1 shown.

[0032] The remote control is a remote control that combines label selection and control instruction issuance, and it can control any product in the smart home.

[0033] The specific working mode of the remote control is that when the remote control points to the electronic tag, it will emit a directional signal, and the electronic tag is uniquely covered. After receiving the signal, the electronic tag indicates that the smart home product bound to the tag has been selected by the remote control. The tag then sends the selected product ID to the smart home control system through the smart home system network. The smart home control system sends the control menu / control buttons and corresponding instructions of the selected product to the remote control. At this time, the information of the selected product and the operation buttons are already displayed on the remote control. Click the corresponding button on the remote control to control the selected product.

[0034] The structure of the remote control includes a signal transmitting module, a first command processing unit, a human-computer interaction module, and a first communication module. The signal transmitting module is connected to the first command processing unit and is used to transmit a directional signal to an electronic tag bound to a smart home within a set range under the control of the first command processing unit, so that the electronic tag sends the information of the bound smart home to the smart home control system; the signal transmitting module includes a light directional emission lens and an infrared transmitting module. The light directional emission lens is used to emit light at a relatively small angle forward, and the infrared transmitting module is used to emit infrared rays outward. The parameters and the lens of the light directional emission lens are adjustable. The first command processing unit is connected to the smart home control system through the first communication module to receive the information for the user to operate on the bound smart home issued by the smart home control system, and send the operation result of the user to the smart home control system. The smart home control system is used to control the actions of the smart home according to the operation result of the user; the first command processing unit is also connected to the human-computer interaction module and is used to display the information for the user to operate and receive the operation result of the user through the human-computer interaction module. The first command processing unit is used to control the emission of infrared rays, the display of the liquid crystal screen, receive touch screen information, and update the display content. For example, when the remote control points to the TV, the liquid crystal screen is updated to the operation menu / buttons of the TV, and when the remote control points to the air conditioner, the liquid crystal screen is updated to the operation menu / buttons of the air conditioner. The first communication module is used to connect to the smart home control system and interact with the smart home system. In this embodiment, the human-computer interaction module includes a display screen and a touch screen, which are respectively used to display and receive the operation result of the user. As another implementation method, a key keyboard can also be used for operation here. Specifically, as Figure 3 shown.

[0035] An electronic tag and a smart home product are bound together in the smart home system. The electronic tag can be a separate device or a function in the smart home product device. When the remote control sends a signal, the electronic tag receives the signal, indicating that the remote control wants to operate the product bound to the electronic tag. The electronic tag includes a signal receiving and processing module, a second command processing unit, and a second communication module. The electronic tag is used to be bound to the corresponding smart home one by one; the signal receiving and processing module is connected to the second command processing unit and is used to receive and process the directional signal emitted by the remote control; the second command processing unit is connected to the smart home control system through the second communication module to send the information of the smart home bound to the electronic tag to the smart home control system. The signal receiving module includes an infrared receiving module and an infrared decoding module; the infrared receiving module is used to receive infrared signals, and the infrared decoding module is used to decode the infrared signals. The second command processing unit is used to process and analyze the signals, and the second communication module is used to connect to the smart home control system. The layout distance between each electronic tag is greater than the set distance threshold. Specifically, as Figure 2 shown.

[0036] The smart home control system is a collection of software and hardware that manages all smart home products. The smart home control system enables all products to be interconnected, queried, and controlled with each other; the smart home control system contains the status and control methods of all products. The smart home control system is used to send the information of the bound smart home that can be operated by the user to the remote control and control the actions of the smart home according to the operation results of the user.

[0037] The specific working process of the directional smart home system is that when the user wants to control a certain smart home, the remote control points to the electronic tag bound to the smart home, indicating that the user wants to operate the smart home product; the remote control will emit a small-angle directional infrared ray forward, and the infrared ray carries a fixed data code. Because the irradiated range is relatively small, it can irradiate the only electronic tag, and the layout distance of the electronic tag needs to be greater than 1m. After the electronic tag receives the directional infrared ray code emitted by the remote control, it means that the remote control points to itself, indicating that the user has selected the smart home product bound by the electronic tag. The electronic tag uploads the ID to the smart home control system. After the smart home control system receives the information transmitted by the electronic tag, it determines the product selected by the user through the binding list, and transmits the information of the smart home bound by the electronic tag, the control menu, and the button information to the remote control. After the remote control receives the product information, operation menu / buttons transmitted by the smart home control system, it displays the information on the display screen. After the user clicks the menu through the touch screen on the remote control, the remote control uploads the value corresponding to the user operation menu to the smart home control system. After the smart home control system receives the command value, it parses the user's command and issues a control command to control the smart home. The specific working process is as Figure 4 shown.

[0038] The application scenarios of the directional smart home system are that there are TVs, curtains, main lights, atmosphere lights, and table lamps indoors. When the directional remote control points to the TV, the TV control menu / control buttons are displayed on the remote control, such as power on / off, volume up / down and other buttons, and operating the corresponding buttons can control the TV. If the directional remote control points to the main light, the control menu / control buttons of the main light are displayed on the remote control, such as turn on / off the light, brighten or dim the brightness, raise or lower the color temperature.
