[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lawn mowers, and in particular to a control method, control system, equipment and medium for displaying patterns on a lawn. [Background Technology]

[0002] As people's demands for a higher quality of life rise, automated lawn maintenance and the creation of ornamental lawns have become a new trend. In China, lawn mowing equipment is generally used in businesses, residential areas, and public green spaces, typically equipped with gardening staff and traditional mowing equipment. However, overseas businesses and individuals have long used automatic lawn mowers, remote-controlled mowers, and robotic lawn mowers. With advancements in technology and a growing interest in art, more robotic lawn mowers are now equipped with artistic mowing capabilities, allowing users to create their own custom designs and patterns on the lawn, satisfying the demand for artistic lawn mowing.

[0003] However, in the existing technology, the artistic pattern cutting function developed by most smart lawn mowers has the problem that it cannot be combined with the selected area for cutting. That is, after the user selects the artistic cutting pattern, the smart lawn mower will plan the path of the entire large working area, so that the selected artistic pattern will appear on the lawn after the entire large area is cut. This method of cutting the entire working area will seriously affect the cutting efficiency, and the cutting effect may not necessarily meet the user's needs. [Summary of the invention]

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of the embodiments of the present invention is to propose a control method, control system, device and medium for displaying patterns on a lawn. Through the method of the present invention, the user's needs for completing artistic pattern cutting within a certain sub-area or multiple sub-areas can be met, thereby improving the cutting efficiency of artistic pattern cutting.

[0005] In view of this, an embodiment of the present invention aims to provide a control method for displaying a pattern on a lawn, comprising the following steps:

[0006] Receive user input for a custom mowing pattern;

[0007] Setting the custom mowing pattern on a mowing map;

[0008] Check the sub-areas in the mowing map;

[0009] generating a new mowing map in response to the selected sub-area in the mowing map and the customized mowing pattern, and transmitting the new mowing map to a mowing device;

[0010] The mowing device generates a mowing path based on the customized mowing pattern and the sub-areas in the checked mowing map, so that the mowing device mows along the mowing path.

[0011] In some embodiments, a custom mowing pattern input by a user is received, where the custom mowing pattern includes at least one of a preset pattern, a text pattern, and a hand-drawn pattern.

[0012] In some embodiments, setting the customized mowing pattern on a mowing map includes:

[0013] The customized mowing pattern is displayed on the mowing map to allow the user to adjust the customized mowing pattern.

[0014] In some embodiments, selecting a sub-area in the mowing map includes:

[0015] The user manually selects the sub-area that needs to be mowed or determines the sub-area involved in the custom pattern and automatically selects the sub-area involved in the custom pattern.

[0016] Another aspect of the present invention provides a control system for displaying a pattern on a lawn, comprising:

[0017] a mobile device configured to obtain a user-entered custom mowing pattern and a user-selected sub-area;

[0018] A mowing device is used to obtain the customized mowing pattern and the selected sub-area and generate a mowing path, and mow along the mowing path.

[0019] In some embodiments, the mowing device includes an intelligent processing system and a motor system. The intelligent processing system is communicatively connected with the mobile device to obtain the custom mowing pattern and the selected sub-area, and generates a mowing path in the selected lawn space based on the custom mowing pattern and the selected sub-area. The motor system controls the mowing device to move along the mowing path and further controls the raising and lowering of the mowing blade to cut the grass in the target area.

[0020] Another aspect of the embodiments of the present invention further provides a control system for displaying patterns on a lawn, comprising:

[0021] A mobile device configured to obtain a user-defined mowing pattern input, and to determine and actively select sub-areas involved in the user-defined mowing pattern;

[0022] A mowing device is used to obtain the customized mowing pattern and the selected sub-area and generate a mowing path, and mow along the mowing path.

[0023] In some embodiments, the mowing device includes an intelligent processing system and a motor system. The intelligent processing system is communicatively connected with the mobile device to obtain the custom mowing pattern and the selected sub-area, and generates a mowing path in the selected lawn space based on the custom mowing pattern and the selected sub-area. The motor system controls the mowing device to move along the mowing path and further controls the raising and lowering of the mowing blade to cut the grass in the target area.

[0024] In another aspect of an embodiment of the present invention, a computer device is provided, comprising: at least one processor; and a memory, wherein the memory stores computer instructions that can be executed on the processor, and the instructions implement the steps of the above method when executed by the processor.

[0026] Compared with related technologies, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: by receiving a user-inputted custom mowing pattern, determining the location of the custom mowing pattern, and selecting the sub-areas involved in the custom mowing pattern, the custom mowing pattern shape is displayed at the corresponding location in the area to be mowed, thereby increasing the diversity and interest of lawn mowing and satisfying people's artistic needs for lawn mowing. Moreover, after the user selects the mowing pattern, the smart mower does not need to perform path planning for the entire large working area, and the selected artistic pattern can only be realized on the lawn after the entire large area is cut. The smart mower only needs to perform path planning for the selected sub-area, and after completing the small area of ​​the selected sub-area, the selected artistic pattern can be realized on the lawn. This method of cutting a portion of the working area can greatly improve cutting efficiency, and the cutting effect can greatly meet the user's needs. [Brief Description of the Drawings]

[0027] The specific embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0028] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of an embodiment of a control method for displaying patterns on a lawn provided by the present invention;

[0029] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of an embodiment of a control device for displaying patterns on a lawn provided by the present invention;

[0030] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of an embodiment of a computer device provided by the present invention; [Specific implementation method]

[0031] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, with examples illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when referring to the drawings, identical numerals in different figures represent identical or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all possible embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.

[0032] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the description and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0033] In the present invention, unless otherwise stated, the following example is merely a specific example and is not intended to limit the embodiments of the present invention to the following specific steps, values, conditions, data, sequences, etc. Those skilled in the art can apply the concepts of the present invention by reading this specification to construct more embodiments not described herein.

[0034] In order to facilitate those skilled in the art to understand the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the technical environment in which the technical solution is implemented is described below.

[0035] Before a robot mower begins work, it needs to construct a map of the area to be mowed, determine its boundaries, and plan a path within the area. This path consists of a series of ordered points. Creating an electronic map of the mowing area typically involves guiding the robot mower along the operating boundary. For large or polygonal mowing areas, the map is typically divided into multiple sub-areas to facilitate the robot's operation.

[0036] During operation, the robot mower uses a positioning system to determine its position and acquires information about its next location, enabling it to move autonomously along a planned path. This autonomous driving significantly reduces the labor of mowing workers, and the robot creates user-specified patterns on the lawn, enhancing its aesthetic appeal and artistic quality.

[0037] However, in the existing technology, the artistic pattern cutting function developed by most smart lawn mowers has the problem that it cannot be combined with the selected area for cutting. That is, after the user selects the artistic cutting pattern, the smart lawn mower will plan the path of the entire large working area, so that the selected artistic pattern will appear on the lawn after the entire large area is cut. This method of cutting the entire working area will seriously affect the cutting efficiency, and the cutting effect may not necessarily meet the user's needs.

[0038] Based on actual technical requirements similar to those described above, the present disclosure provides a control method, a control device, an apparatus, and a medium for displaying patterns on a lawn.

[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, the control method for displaying a pattern on a lawn according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0040] S1, receiving a custom mowing pattern input by a user;

[0041] S2. Setting the customized mowing pattern on the mowing map;

[0042] S3. Check the sub-area in the mowing map;

[0043] S4, generating a new mowing map in response to the selected sub-areas in the mowing map and the customized mowing pattern, and transmitting the new mowing map to the mowing device;

[0044] S5. The mowing device generates a mowing path based on the customized mowing pattern and the selected sub-areas in the mowing map, so that the mowing device mows along the mowing path.

[0045] Steps S1 to S4 are completed in the mobile device, and S5 is completed in the mowing device. S1 receives a user-defined mowing pattern, wherein the user-defined mowing pattern includes at least one of a preset pattern, a text pattern, a picture, a photo, a hand-drawn pattern, and an emoticon pattern.

[0046] Furthermore, the custom mowing pattern describes the desired shape of the lawn area. This custom mowing pattern can be obtained through various methods, including downloading it online, receiving it from other devices, drawing it with a drawing tool, taking a photo, or selecting it from an existing image album or preset patterns. Alternatively, the user can input text, letters, symbols, emoticons, etc., that they want to create on the lawn using an input device. Furthermore, users can use image editing tools to modify the pattern obtained through any of the above methods, such as filtering objects, removing backgrounds, and sharpening images, to achieve personalized settings.

[0047] In one possible implementation, a mobile device interface displays a mowing map and at least one of a preset pattern, text pattern, image, photo, hand-drawn pattern, or emoticon. The user selects a pattern by clicking on one of the options. For example, if the user clicks on a preset pattern, the interface displays various pre-set patterns, and the user can manually select one or more of them. Alternatively, if the user clicks on a text pattern, a keyboard appears, and the user can select and enter one or more letters, text, punctuation marks, or emoticons. Alternatively, if the user clicks on an image, the user can choose to import the desired image from the local gallery or download it from the internet via a network connection. After selecting a pattern, click Confirm to proceed to the next step.

[0048] S2. Setting the customized mowing pattern on a mowing map.

[0049] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the mowing map includes a mowing map pre-established for the area to be mowed, and the mowing map may include the boundary of the mowing area, obstacles in the area to be mowed, and non-mowing areas in the area to be mowed, such as passages, trees, stones, etc. The mowing map includes a plurality of segmented sub-areas, and the plurality of segmented sub-areas can be freely divided by the user in the mowing map, or automatically divided by the mower after the mower builds the map, and the new mowing map after the division is transmitted to the mobile device. Setting the custom mowing pattern on the mowing map includes combining the custom mowing pattern with the new mowing map, and the custom mowing pattern, like the obstacles, boundaries or passages, is a component of the mowing map. In one example, the custom mowing pattern can be displayed on the mowing map.

[0050] In a possible implementation, setting the custom mowing pattern on a mowing map includes: displaying the custom mowing pattern on the mowing map to allow a user to adjust parameters of the custom mowing pattern.

[0051] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the custom mowing pattern can be displayed on the mowing map, for example, the custom mowing pattern floats on the mowing map or the custom mowing pattern is integrated into the mowing map. The receiving of the user's adjustment of the parameters of the custom mowing pattern includes: the position of the custom mowing pattern can be changed by selecting the custom mowing pattern and dragging and dropping the pattern; the rotation direction of the custom mowing pattern can also be adjusted to determine the orientation of the pattern; the size of the custom mowing pattern can be matched with the corresponding gesture, such as the fingertip moving away from the corresponding pattern will expand, and the fingertip moving closer will shrink the corresponding pattern, thereby achieving scaling of the pattern size; the size of the custom mowing pattern can also be enlarged and reduced by clicking the point in the lower right corner with a finger, for example, continuing to drag the point in the lower right corner toward the lower right direction will enlarge the custom mowing pattern, and dragging the point in the lower right corner toward the upper left corner will shrink the custom mowing pattern.

[0052] The disclosed embodiment adds a pattern adjustment function, which enables modification of various parameters such as pattern position and size, thereby increasing the user's DIY fun and making the creative plan more in line with the user's aesthetic and practical needs.

[0053] S3. Check the sub-area in the mowing map.

[0054] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the sub-area in the mowing map that is checked is used to select the sub-area that needs to be cut when the mowing device performs the custom mowing pattern cutting. The mowing device will generate a mowing path within the sub-area range in the checked mowing map and mow along the mowing path; the mowing device will not generate a mowing path or perform a mowing operation within the sub-area range in the unchecked mowing map. In one example, in a possible implementation, checking the sub-area in the mowing map includes: the user manually checking the sub-area that needs to be mowed. In this embodiment, the user clicks on the sub-area where the custom mowing pattern and the mowing map intersect, or the sub-area that the user needs the mower to cut, on the mobile device interface. The checking method includes but is not limited to: clicking the check mark of the sub-area in the mowing map, and clicking any position of the sub-area in the mowing map. The selected subarea is indicated by a darker color than the unselected subarea, and a selected subarea is displayed with a check mark. The selected subarea may be a colored check mark or a circle. For example, if the user has not selected a subarea, the unselected subarea's check mark is displayed as a small white circle. If the user has selected a subarea, the currently selected subarea's check mark is displayed as a small black circle. This manual selection method can satisfy the user's DIY experience and better meet the actual needs of customers. Thus, the lawn mower can achieve a small mowing pattern on the working lawn while meeting customer needs.

[0055] In another possible implementation, selecting a subarea of ​​the mowing map includes determining the subarea associated with the custom pattern and automatically selecting the subarea associated with the custom pattern. In this embodiment, the controller of the mobile device determines, based on the positional relationship between the custom mowing pattern and the mowing map, the subarea where the custom mowing pattern intersects with the mowing map and automatically selects the subarea where the pattern intersects. Indication of selection includes, but is not limited to, a darker color for the selected subarea than for the unselected subarea and a selected indicator displayed in the selected subarea. The selected indicator may be a colored check mark or a circle. For example, if the user has not selected a subarea, the selected indicator for the unselected subarea is displayed as a small white circle. When the user has selected a subarea, the selected indicator for the currently selected subarea is displayed as a small black circle. This automatic selection method allows for more intelligent mowing of a small area of ​​the lawn to display a mowing pattern if the user forgets to select a subarea, making pattern mowing more intelligent and improving the mowing efficiency of the mowing device.

[0056] After setting the custom mowing pattern on the mowing map in step S2, step S3 is added to select the sub-area in the mowing map; this allows the user to independently select the area that the mowing device needs to cut, which can not only meet the needs of artistic pattern cutting, but also improve the cutting efficiency of artistic pattern cutting.

[0057] S4. Generate a new mowing map in response to the selected sub-areas in the mowing map and the customized mowing pattern, and transmit the new mowing map to the mowing device.

[0058] After completing the settings of the custom mowing pattern and selecting the sub-areas of the mowing map, the user clicks the start option on the interface of the mobile device. The controller of the mobile device merges the mowing map with the custom mowing pattern to generate a new mowing map, and transmits the new mowing map to the mowing device via communication. The communication method may include one or a combination of Bluetooth communication, Wi-Fi communication, Near Field Communication (NFC), and other communication methods.

[0059] The new mowing map can include a large mowing map with a custom pattern or a small mowing map containing only the mowing pattern and partitions. Transmitting the map containing only the mowing pattern and partitions to the mowing device allows the mowing device to receive a more precise mowing area, enabling the mowing device to perform pattern mowing in a smaller area and improving mowing efficiency.

[0060] S5. The mowing device generates a mowing path based on the customized mowing pattern and the selected sub-areas in the mowing map, so that the mowing device mows along the mowing path.

[0061] The mowing device receives the mowing map and merges it with the custom mowing pattern to generate a new mowing map. The mowing device will generate a mowing path within the selected sub-areas of the mowing map and mow along that path. The mowing device will not generate a mowing path or perform mowing operations within the unselected sub-areas of the mowing map. This mowing path generation method includes, but is not limited to, avoiding areas not covered by the custom mowing pattern and generating a mowing path within the selected sub-areas of the mowing map that are not covered by the custom mowing pattern. This ensures that the mowing device operates only within the selected sub-areas, improving operational efficiency.

[0062] The present invention receives a custom mowing pattern input by a user, determines the location of the custom mowing pattern, and selects the sub-area involved in the custom mowing pattern, so that the corresponding position of the area to be mowed appears in the shape of the custom mowing pattern, thereby increasing the diversity and fun of lawn mowing, meeting people's artistic needs for lawn mowing, and can realize the user's need to complete artistic pattern cutting in a certain sub-area or multiple sub-areas, thereby improving the cutting efficiency of artistic pattern cutting.

[0063] In the disclosed embodiments, the path planning method may adopt a bow-shaped path formed by a Boustrophedon covering method, or a U-shaped path formed by an internal spiral covering (ISC) method, or a tree-shaped path formed by an STC (Spanning Tree Covering) covering method. It should be noted that the generation method of the planned path is not limited to the above examples. Technicians in the relevant field may make other changes based on the technical essence of this application, but as long as the functions and effects achieved are the same or similar to those of this application, they should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.

[0064] It should be pointed out in particular that the various steps in the various embodiments of the above-mentioned control method for cutting patterns on a lawn can be cross-linked, replaced, added, or deleted with each other. Therefore, these reasonable permutations, combinations, and transformations of the control method for cutting patterns on a lawn should also fall within the scope of protection of the present invention, and the scope of protection of the present invention should not be limited to the embodiments.

[0065] Based on the above objectives, a second aspect of an embodiment of the present invention provides a control device for displaying patterns on a lawn. Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of a control device for cutting patterns on a lawn provided by the present invention. Figure 2As shown, in one possible implementation of an embodiment of the present invention, a control device for cutting a pattern on a lawn includes: a mobile device configured to obtain a user-input custom mowing pattern and a user-selected sub-area; a mowing device configured to obtain the custom mowing pattern and the selected sub-area, generate a mowing path, and mow along the mowing path. In another possible implementation, a control device for displaying a pattern on a lawn includes: a mobile device configured to obtain a user-input custom mowing pattern, determine and actively select the sub-area involved in the custom pattern; and a mowing device configured to obtain the custom mowing pattern and the selected sub-area, generate a mowing path, and mow along the mowing path.

[0066] Furthermore, the mowing device includes an intelligent processing system and a motor system. The intelligent processing system is communicatively connected with the mobile device to obtain the custom mowing pattern and the selected sub-area, and generates a mowing path in the selected lawn space based on the custom mowing pattern and the selected sub-area. The motor system controls the mowing device to move along the mowing path and further controls the raising and lowering of the mowing blade to cut the grass in the target area.

[0067] In this embodiment, the mowing device can be positioned using satellite positioning, such as signals from a combined global navigation satellite system (GNSS), or signals from independent navigation satellite systems, such as the US GPS, Russia's Glonass, Europe's Galileo, and China's BeiDou satellite navigation system. Furthermore, related augmentation systems, such as the US WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System), Europe's EGNOS (European Geostationary Navigation Overlay System), and Japan's MSAS (Multi-functional Transport Satellite Augmentation System), can be used to locate the mowing device. In one example, if the mowing device's position determined by satellite positioning is not accurate enough, the position can be corrected using other positioning methods, such as an inertial navigation system. In one example, the corrected mowing device position can be determined within a certain range. The determination method may include: if the position is within a non-customized mowing pattern area and within a user-selected sub-area, controlling the mowing device to mow at a preset mowing height; if the position is within the customized mowing pattern area, controlling the mowing blade to raise, stopping mowing, and controlling the mowing device to leave the customized mowing pattern area.

[0068] The disclosed embodiment determines whether the current position of the lawn mower is consistent with the scope of the mowing area. If so, mowing is performed according to the mowing height corresponding to the mowing area to prevent mis-mowing due to positioning errors. In one example, if the position is not within the mowing area, mowing is stopped and the lawn mower is controlled to return to the mowing area. The mowing area is a non-customized mowing pattern area and is located in a sub-area selected by the user.

[0069] In some implementations, the mobile device may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, or other mobile terminal device that can perform image processing.
