Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the drawings herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0058] The terms "first," "second," and so on, in the specification and claims of this application and the accompanying drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. The naming or numbering of steps in this application does not necessarily imply that the steps in the method flow must be executed in the chronological or logical order indicated by the naming or numbering. Named or numbered process steps may be executed in a different order based on the desired technical objectives, as long as the same or similar technical effects are achieved.

[0059] Please refer to Figure 1 , a method for controlling an in-flight entertainment system, comprising:

[0060] S101: Obtaining an entertainment database in the entertainment system, and dividing the data units of the entertainment database into groups of people suitable for the entertainment system, thereby obtaining entertainment data sub-units of different groups of people suitable for the entertainment system;

[0061] In this embodiment, the entertainment database stores several data units, which may or may not be of the same category. In this embodiment, these data units include video data, audio data, game data, and other data that can interact with passengers, providing relaxation and entertainment. The demographic segmentation is primarily based on an age range or gender, and the entertainment data sub-unit is composed of multiple data units.

[0062] S102: Obtaining a first control signal for activating the entertainment system. Upon receiving feedback that the entertainment system has been activated, obtaining basic information of a target passenger corresponding to the target entertainment system for a single seat on the current flight.

[0063] Among them, the basic information of the target passengers mainly includes the age and gender of the passengers. These basic information can be obtained directly from the ticket purchase information after the passenger's authorization. There is no need to ask the passenger for more permissions and information, avoiding infringing on the passenger's privacy and reducing the passenger experience.

[0064] S103: Waiting to receive a second control signal indicating that the target passenger has entered the airport. When the second control signal is received, searching the entertainment database based on the basic information of the target passenger to extract a plurality of target entertainment data sub-units covering the basic information of the target passenger.

[0065] The energy carried by an airplane is limited, and various systems are generally designed based on economic efficiency. To minimize the burden on the system, this embodiment requires extracting the target entertainment data sub-unit after confirming that the target passenger has entered the airport to board the flight. This avoids unnecessary system burden caused by screening and extracting the target entertainment data sub-unit if the target passenger does not board the flight.

[0066] Among them, the interpretation of several target entertainment data sub-units covering the basic information of the target passenger is that if the age of the target passenger is included in the applicable age range of the entertainment data sub-unit, or the gender corresponds, the entertainment data sub-unit can be considered as the target entertainment data sub-unit.

[0067] S104: Obtaining whether the area to be displayed by all target entertainment data sub-units is larger than the maximum area that the display system can display; if not, directly outputting to the display system for display;

[0068] In this embodiment, the target passenger basic information may be covered by multiple target entertainment data sub-units, so it is necessary to consider whether all target entertainment data sub-units can be displayed within the limited display space of the display system. If not, it is necessary to consider the order of display, that is, which target entertainment data sub-units are placed on the current page and which target entertainment data sub-units are placed on the next page that cannot be seen directly.

[0069] S105: If yes, then establish an entertainment data evaluation model, score the plurality of target entertainment data sub-units according to the target passenger basic information, obtain a plurality of first evaluation values, sort the plurality of first evaluation values, and display them sequentially from top to bottom in the display system according to the sorting order. The remaining target entertainment data sub-units that are not displayed on the first page of the display system are stored sequentially on the next page;

[0070] S106: Obtain the first target entertainment data subunit, and determine whether the number of data units in the current target entertainment data subunit is greater than 1. If not, perform normal display.

[0071] S107: If it is greater than 1, establish a data unit evaluation model, score several target entertainment data sub-units according to the target passenger basic information, obtain several second evaluation values, sort the several second evaluation values, and display the data units in the display system from top to bottom according to the sorting order.

[0072] There are multiple data units within the target entertainment data sub-unit, and the internal data units are also sorted in a way that enables passengers to find entertainment data content that suits them more quickly.

[0073] Through the above method, entertainment data that may be suitable for the target passenger is first screened out from the database, and then the data in the target entertainment data sub-unit is evaluated through the evaluation of the target entertainment data sub-unit, and the order of display on the display system is obtained, so that the target passenger can see the content that may be of interest to him at the first time, and avoid the problem of poor physical examination caused by the target passenger having to search for a long time as much as possible.

[0074] An exemplary embodiment of the present invention further includes:

[0075] S201: determining whether a program for outputting a data unit in the current entertainment system is in a running state; if not, not obtaining a current aircraft status feedback signal;

[0076] S202: If the aircraft is in the running state, obtaining a current aircraft state feedback signal, wherein the aircraft state feedback signal includes a first feedback signal indicating that the aircraft is taking off, a second feedback signal indicating that the aircraft is in level flight, and a third feedback signal indicating that the aircraft is landing;

[0077] S203: Obtaining a current aircraft status feedback signal to adjust the volume output of the entertainment system.

[0078] In order to further enhance the user experience of the entertainment system, there will be huge noise during takeoff and landing. The takeoff phase also includes the noisy phases such as the climb phase. At this time, the volume output of the entertainment system is controlled and adjusted through the above control method to avoid the need for passengers to repeatedly adjust the volume, so that passengers can get a better experience.

[0079] Specifically, adjusting the volume output of the entertainment system according to the current aircraft status feedback signal includes:

[0080] S301: Establish a volume control model, set a volume control threshold, and save the current initial volume value;

[0081] S302: Determine whether the current initial volume value is less than the volume control threshold. If not, do not process.

[0082] Among them, the volume control threshold can be selected through multiple tests to select a volume level that is not offensive and can relatively reduce external noise. It can be selected according to specific actual conditions and will not be explained in detail in the present invention.

[0083] Secondly, if the customer's initial volume value is already greater than the set volume control threshold, no adjustment is required.

[0084] S303: If it is less than, obtaining a current aircraft status feedback signal. If it is a first feedback signal, outputting a volume adjustment value through a volume control model based on the data unit currently being output by the entertainment database and the aircraft status. The volume adjustment value is used to generate a first volume control signal, which is then output to the entertainment system.

[0085] S304: The current aircraft status feedback signal is the second feedback signal, and the current volume level is adjusted from the volume adjustment value to the initial volume value;

[0086] S305: The current aircraft status feedback signal is the third feedback signal, and the current volume level is adjusted from the initial volume value to the volume adjustment value.

[0087] In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, establishing a volume control model includes:

[0088]

[0089] when season Output, when When value.

[0090] Where, is the volume adjustment value, is the initial volume value, Based on the The first calculation coefficient of the aircraft state feedback signal, Based on the current entertainment database is output The second calculation coefficient of the data unit, The volume control threshold.

[0091] In order to ensure that the volume control model does not adjust the sound too loud, a restriction condition is also set. That is, if the volume adjustment value output by the model is not less than the volume control threshold, the volume adjustment value at this time will be reassigned and output according to the volume control threshold. In other cases, normal output will be performed.

[0092] In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the first calculation coefficient includes:

[0093] When the aircraft status feedback signal is the first feedback signal or the third feedback signal, ;

[0094] When the aircraft status feedback signal is the second feedback signal, ;

[0095]

[0096] Where, is the first calculation coefficient of the first feedback signal or the third feedback signal, is the first calculation coefficient of the second feedback signal, is the third calculation coefficient, , when the number of aircraft engines is greater than 2, , when the number of aircraft engines is not more than 2, , is the unladen mass of the aircraft, is the fully loaded mass of the aircraft, is the total number of rows of seats on the aircraft, is the row number of the seat where the current target entertainment data subunit is located, The row number of the seat closest to the aircraft engine.

[0097] In this embodiment, the relationship between the distribution of seat positions and noise is combined. The closer the seat is to the engine, the louder the noise will be. Therefore, the above model combined with the distribution of seat positions makes the result more reasonable.

[0098] Secondly, regarding the second calculation coefficient , can be set according to specific circumstances. In this embodiment, the types of data units are mainly video data, audio data and game data. Therefore, considering comprehensively, video data is the first type of second calculation coefficient, that is, , audio data is the second calculation coefficient of the second type, that is, , the game data is the third type of second calculation coefficient, that is, .

[0099] An exemplary embodiment of the present invention further includes:

[0100] When the entertainment system executes the first volume control signal, it determines whether a second volume control signal from the non-entertainment system is received. If the second volume control signal is not received, the first volume control signal continues to be executed; if the second volume control signal is received, the first volume control signal is stopped and the second volume control signal is executed.

[0101] In this embodiment, the passenger needs to be given the highest adjustment authority. If the passenger feels uncomfortable and needs manual adjustment, the automatic adjustment of the entertainment system needs to be stopped immediately and the control instructions provided by the passenger need to be accepted.

[0102] In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the second control signal for waiting to receive the target passenger entering the airport includes:

[0103] When feedback information is obtained that the target passenger has entered security check, a second control signal is sent; wait for feedback information that the target passenger has been identified at the boarding gate, and when the target passenger information at the boarding gate is obtained, determine whether the current target entertainment data sub-unit has been displayed to the display system; if it has been displayed, no processing is performed; if the display is not completed, stop scoring several target entertainment data sub-units, and display them according to the order in which the target entertainment data sub-units are obtained from the entertainment database.

[0104] In this field, from entering the airport to boarding the plane, passengers generally need to scan the code once at security check and once at the check-in gate. When the code scan information for boarding the plane is obtained, it means that the passenger is about to board the plane. If the entertainment data is not displayed when the passenger reaches the seat, this solution loses its great advantage. Therefore, when the process is not completed, the completed content needs to be displayed at this time.

[0105] In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the entertainment data evaluation model includes:

[0106]

[0107] Where, is the first evaluation value, is the number of categories of data units in the target entertainment data subunit, is the fourth calculation coefficient, , when the target entertainment data subunit contains data units that need to be used online, , when there is no data unit that needs to be used for networking in the target entertainment data subunit, , is the number of data units in the target entertainment data subunit, For the The average age of the population adapted to each data unit, is the age of the target passengers.

[0108] In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the data unit evaluation model includes:

[0109]

[0110] Where, is the second evaluation value, is the power consumption of the entertainment system when using this data unit, The time consumed to start the data unit, is the size of the data unit, The minimum network bandwidth required for the data unit to run. For fit, .

[0111] The model considers the consumed time, the size of the data unit and the network bandwidth, all of which are the data affecting the actual use, so that the accuracy of the result calculated by the final model can be further improved.

[0112] It should be noted that, during the above evaluation calculation, the values in the same unit need to be taken to avoid large errors, and secondly, since only the value calculation is performed, in the embodiment, the calculation between units does not need to be considered, only the value taken in the same unit is guaranteed, and finally the result that can be compared under the same standard is obtained, and secondly, if the same evaluation value appears, the front and rear order can be random.

[0113] Among them, the value of is explained and described by taking an actual example.

[0114] When the target customer is less than 18 years old, the when calculating the data unit of the game class, and the when calculating the data unit of the remaining categories;

[0115] When the target customer is not less than 18 years old and is male, the when calculating the data unit of the music class, and the when calculating the data unit of the remaining categories;
