It should also be understood that the term “and / or” as used herein refers to and includes any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the integrated control system for equipment provided by the present invention includes: an opening and closing module, an exhibition machine master control module, an exhibit control module, a lighting control module, an air conditioning control module, a player control module, and a central control module.

[0037] In practical implementation, the opening / closing module is used to uniformly control the opening / closing of various devices in the exhibition hall and record their control data. These devices may include, but are not limited to, computers, projectors, TV boxes, air conditioners, exhibition equipment, and lighting. Among them, computers, projectors, TV boxes, air conditioners, exhibition equipment, and lighting can be referred to as exhibition equipment.

[0038] In practice, the exhibition machine master control module is used to control the opening and closing of each exhibition machine in the exhibition hall and record the operation data of each exhibition machine; each exhibition machine is a part of the various equipment in the exhibition hall. It can be understood that the function of the exhibition machine master control module is similar to that of the opening and closing module, but its function is limited to the exhibition machines.

[0039] In practical implementation, the exhibit control module is used to individually control various exhibits within the exhibition hall according to their categories, and to record the current display data of each exhibit category; each exhibit category is a part of the various devices within the exhibition hall. For example, exhibit categories may include, but are not limited to, computers, projectors, and TV boxes. The exhibit control module retrieves the object to identify whether it is a computer, projector, or TV box, and uses this information to individually control each exhibit category and record the current display data of each exhibit category.

[0040] In practice, the lighting control module is used to control the on / off state of various lights within the exhibition hall and record their operational data. Each light is a component of a larger set of equipment within the exhibition hall.

[0041] In practice, the air conditioning control module is used to control each air conditioner in the exhibition hall and record its operating data. Each air conditioner is part of the various pieces of equipment in the exhibition hall.

[0042] In practice, the player control module controls the various players within the exhibition hall and records their operational data. Each player is a component of the various devices within the exhibition hall. For example, these players may include, but are not limited to, TV boxes and computer players.

[0043] In practice, the central control module is used to control various devices in the exhibition hall through the opening and closing module, the exhibition machine master control module, the exhibit control module, the lighting control module, and the player control module, and to record their control data.

[0044] In practical implementation, the central control module can transfer the control operations of the opening and closing module, the exhibition machine master control module, the exhibit control module, the lighting control module, and the player control module to the background sub-thread, which can reduce the execution pressure of the main thread and will not affect other operations between these modules.

[0045] In this embodiment of the invention, the integrated device control system adopts a modular design with clear classification and intuitive functional design, allowing users to easily learn and operate it without a complex learning process, thus simplifying the operation of the control device. Simultaneously, it can integrate control of various common devices (such as computers) and less common devices (such as TV boxes), intelligently adapting to various controllable devices to maximize compatibility. It offers comprehensive functionality and supports the addition of corresponding control units (such as the control buttons below) and their control methods, demonstrating good scalability and openness. Furthermore, the integrated device control system is equipped with individual data recording for each module, ensuring that each control action is recorded locally for future use and traceability.

[0046] In practical implementation, the integrated equipment control system of the present invention provides a central control interface to support users in controlling various devices within the exhibition hall through the central control interface. For example, the central control interface includes a functional area and a display area. The functional area displays the control buttons corresponding to each module of the integrated equipment control system (i.e., the opening / closing module, the exhibition machine master control module, the exhibit control module, the lighting control module, and the player control module), while the display area displays the corresponding operation interface for each module. When the integrated equipment control system detects that a module, i.e., the target module, is selected, it displays the corresponding operation interface of that target module in the preset display area.

[0047] For example, the central control interface can be as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the control buttons for each module of the integrated control system for the functional area display equipment are as follows: "Open / Close Hall" control button for the opening / closing module, "Exhibit Control" control button for the exhibit control module, "Air Conditioning Control" control button for the air conditioning control module, "Exhibition Machine Control" control button for the exhibition machine master control module, "Lighting Control" control button for the lighting control module, and "Video Control" control button for the player control module, etc. Figure 2 As shown, when the integrated control system detects that the "Open / Close" control button corresponding to the target module, namely the opening / closing module, is clicked and selected, the one-click opening / closing operation interface of the opening / closing module is displayed in the display area (which will be described in detail below).

[0048] As an example, when the total number of control buttons corresponding to each module of the integrated control system exceeds the maximum number of control buttons displayed in the functional area, the functional area can support dragging and dropping to display the control buttons corresponding to each module of the integrated control system.

[0049] In practice, when a device of the same type as a certain existing device is added to the exhibition hall, it is not necessary to modify the central control program. The information of the corresponding device is simply recorded and written into a JSON text file, and the control item can be added on the central control operation interface.

[0050] In this embodiment of the invention, the integrated control system provides a central control interface that integrates the corresponding operation interfaces of each module into one interface. The categories are clear, the functions are well-defined and easy to understand, and the interface layout is user-friendly, allowing users to get started immediately without a complicated learning process. This simplifies the operation of the control equipment. For example, when a control button in the left function area is selected, the display area switches to show the corresponding operation interface. The corresponding operation interface of each module is displayed in the same central control interface, eliminating the need to repeatedly open and switch the corresponding operation interface of each module.

[0051] In practical implementation, the integrated control system can use the storage function provided by the software development engine to record the user's click information each time the user clicks through the corresponding interface. When the central control module determines that the operation is successful, it will store the ID of the current operation and the operation behavior locally through the engine data storage. When the system starts for the first time, the program will automatically scan the recorded data and parse it to implement it in the current operation interface.

[0052] Optionally, the opening / closing module provides both opening and closing functions to achieve unified control of the opening / closing of various devices within the exhibition hall, while simultaneously recording their control data. In practical implementation, the opening / closing module provides a one-button opening / closing operation interface, including opening mode and closing mode buttons. The opening mode button uses a one-button control method to sequentially turn on all devices within the exhibition hall according to a pre-set power-on sequence, while the closing mode button uses a one-button control method to sequentially turn off all devices within the exhibition hall according to a pre-set power-off sequence.

[0053] In this embodiment of the invention, the opening and closing module provides a one-click opening and closing operation interface. The various function control buttons provided by the module are displayed visually on this interface. The function design is clear and intuitive, and the interface layout is user-friendly, allowing users to quickly learn how to use it without a complex learning process, thus simplifying the operation of the control equipment. Simultaneously, by uniformly controlling the opening and closing of various devices within the exhibition hall according to a pre-set power-on and power-off sequence, the safe and orderly opening and closing of all equipment within the exhibition hall contributes to improving the intelligence of the integrated control system.

[0054] Optionally, the exhibition machine master control module provides an exhibition machine control operation interface, such as... Figure 2 The display area is shown in the image. The exhibition machine control interface provides power-on and power-off buttons. The power-on mode button provides one-button control to sequentially power on all exhibition machines in the exhibition hall according to a pre-set power-on order. The power-off mode button provides one-button control to sequentially power off all exhibition machines in the exhibition hall according to a pre-set power-off order. In practice, the implementation of this exhibition machine control interface is the same as or similar to the implementation of the one-button power-on / off control interface described above.

[0055] In this embodiment of the invention, the exhibition machine master control module provides an exhibition machine control operation interface, displaying the various function control buttons provided by the master control module in a visual manner. The function design is clear and easy to understand, and the interface layout is user-friendly, allowing users to start using it immediately without a complicated learning process, thus simplifying the operation of the control equipment. Simultaneously, by uniformly controlling the on / off of each exhibition machine in the exhibition hall according to a pre-set power-on and power-off sequence, the safe and orderly on / off of each exhibition machine in the exhibition hall is ensured, contributing to the improvement of the intelligence of the integrated equipment control system.

[0056] Optionally, the exhibit control module provides an exhibit operation interface, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the exhibit's user interface provides multiple exhibit category buttons and multiple exhibit option buttons. These exhibit category buttons may include, but are not limited to, computer category buttons, projector category buttons, and TV playback box category buttons. Figure 3 (Not shown). Multiple exhibit option buttons may include, but are not limited to, a power button, a restart button, and volume buttons. The power button is used to control the power on or off of various exhibits within the exhibition hall. The restart button (… Figure 3 (Not shown) This volume button is used to control the restart of various exhibits within the exhibition hall. As an example, the volume button can be adjusted by dragging.

[0057] In practical implementation, after the exhibit control module detects that a target exhibit category button among multiple exhibit category buttons has been clicked and selected, it supports corresponding control of the exhibit corresponding to the target exhibit category button through the switch button, the restart button, and the volume button. For example, after the equipment integrated control system detects that the computer category button has been clicked and selected, it supports controlling the computer to turn on / off through the switch button, restarting the computer through the restart button after the computer is turned on, and controlling the computer's volume through the volume button.

[0058] In this embodiment of the invention, the exhibit control module provides an exhibit operation interface, which displays the various function control buttons provided by the exhibit control module in a visual manner. The function design is clear and easy to understand, and the interface layout is suitable for the user's viewing method, so that the user can get started immediately without a complicated learning process, thereby simplifying the operation of the control device.

[0059] Optionally, the lighting control module can control the on / off of individual lights within the exhibition hall using either a one-button or zone-based method. For example, the lighting control module provides a lighting control interface with a master control button, an on / off button, and multiple zone-based lighting control buttons. The master control button is used to control the on / off of individual lights within the exhibition hall using a one-button method. Any of the zone-based lighting control buttons is used to switch the lighting control authority to the corresponding zone within the exhibition hall. The on / off button controls the lights within the exhibition hall to turn on, and the off button controls the lights within the exhibition hall to turn off.

[0060] In practical implementation, when the lighting control module detects that the master lighting control button has been selected, it supports one-click control of all lights in the exhibition hall to turn on via the "lights on" button, and one-click control of all lights in the exhibition hall to turn off via the "lights off" button. Alternatively, when the lighting control module detects that a specific area lighting control button (i.e., the target area lighting control button) has been selected among multiple area lighting control buttons, it supports one-click control of all lights in the target area lighting control button to turn on via the "lights on" button, and one-click control of all lights in the target area lighting control button to turn off via the "lights off" button.

[0061] For example, the lighting control interface can be as follows: Figure 4 As shown, taking an exhibition hall with two floors as an example, the exhibition hall can be divided into the first floor and the second floor. The lighting control buttons for these areas include two separate buttons: "First Floor Lighting" and "Second Floor Lighting." When the lighting control module detects that the "First Floor Lighting" button has been selected, it supports one-click control of turning on all the lights on the first floor using the "On Lights" button, and one-click control of turning off all the lights on the first floor using the "Off Lights" button.

[0062] In this embodiment of the invention, the lighting control module provides a lighting control operation interface, which displays the various function control buttons provided by the lighting control module in a visual manner. The function design is clear and easy to understand, and the interface layout is suitable for users to view, so that users can start using it immediately without a complicated learning process, thereby simplifying the operation of the control device and reducing the cost of the control device.

[0063] Optionally, the air conditioning control module can control each air conditioner in the exhibition hall using either a one-button or zone-based control method. For example, the air conditioning control module provides an air conditioning control interface with a master control button, a power on button, a power off button, a mode selection button, a fan speed selection button, a temperature adjustment button, and multiple zone control buttons. The master control button is used to control each air conditioner in the exhibition hall using a one-button control method; the power on button is used to turn on each air conditioner; the power off button is used to turn off each air conditioner; the mode selection button is used to control the operating mode of each air conditioner; the fan speed selection button is used to control the fan speed of each air conditioner; and any one of the zone control buttons is used to switch the air conditioning control authority to the corresponding zone in the exhibition hall.

[0064] In practical implementation, when the air conditioning control module detects that the main air conditioning control button has been selected, it supports controlling each air conditioner in the exhibition hall via the power on / off button, mode selection button, fan speed selection button, and temperature adjustment button. Alternatively, when the air conditioning control module detects that a specific area control button (the target area control button) has been selected from multiple area control buttons, it supports controlling each air conditioner within the target area via the power on / off button, mode selection button, fan speed selection button, and temperature adjustment button. The temperature adjustment button allows users to adjust the temperature of each air conditioner in the exhibition hall by dragging it.

[0065] For example, the air conditioning control interface can be as follows: Figure 5 As shown, taking an exhibition hall with two floors as an example, the exhibition hall can be divided into the first floor and the second floor. The multiple air conditioning control buttons for each area include two separate control buttons: "First Floor Air Conditioning" and "Second Floor Air Conditioning." When the air conditioning control module detects that the "First Floor Air Conditioning" control button has been selected, it supports controlling each air conditioner on the first floor of the exhibition hall using the power on / off button, mode selection button, fan speed selection button, and temperature adjustment button.

[0066] In this embodiment of the invention, the air conditioning control module provides an air conditioning control operation interface, which displays the various function control buttons provided by the air conditioning control module in a visual manner. The function design is clear and easy to understand, and the interface layout is suitable for the user's viewing method, so that the user can start using it immediately without a complicated learning process, thereby simplifying the operation of the control device and reducing the cost of the control device.

[0067] Optionally, the player control module provides a video control interface, which includes a source switching button, a fast forward button, a rewind button, a play / pause button, and displays a video playback progress bar. Specifically, the source switching button controls the various players within the exhibition hall to switch between different videos; the fast forward button controls the various players within the exhibition hall to accelerate forward playback of the current video; the rewind button controls the various players within the exhibition hall to accelerate backward playback of the current video; and the play / pause button controls the various players within the exhibition hall to pause / resume playback of the current video.

[0068] For example, the video control interface can be as follows: Figure 6 As shown, as an example, the video playback progress bar allows users to control the playback progress of the current video played by each player within the exhibition hall by dragging and dropping. As another example, the player control module supports automatically replaying the previously played video when each player within the exhibition hall restarts.

[0069] In this embodiment of the invention, the player control module provides a video control operation interface, which displays the various function control buttons provided by the player control module in a visual manner. The function design is clear and easy to understand, and the interface layout is suitable for the user's viewing method, so that the user can start using it immediately without a complicated learning process, thereby simplifying the operation of the control device and reducing the cost of the control device.

[0070] It should be noted that the buttons mentioned above can be virtual buttons.

[0071] Because most existing exhibition hall control systems use Socket communication, communication speed is slow, and sometimes even results in waiting times. Therefore, in this embodiment of the invention, the integrated equipment control system uses multiple Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) communication interfaces and multiple User Datagram Protocol (UDP) communication interfaces. It communicates with various devices within the exhibition hall through these TCP and UDP interfaces. By simply obtaining the control codes and ports of the devices to be controlled, access to the integrated equipment control system is rapid. Controlling the devices using the known control codes significantly reduces communication latency, achieving immediate control and response.

[0072] In practical implementation, the central control module can integrate the control signals corresponding to various devices in the exhibition hall. When operating various devices in the exhibition hall, the control signals are sent to the local area network via UDP through the opening and closing module, the exhibition machine master control module, the exhibit control module, the lighting control module, the air conditioning control module, and the player control module. After receiving the corresponding control signals, the various devices in the exhibition hall can retrieve the information in the received control signals and perform the corresponding operations when the execution conditions are met.

[0073] For example, the control codes for each lighting group within the exhibition hall can be pre-stored. The central control module can obtain each lighting group control code and send it to the lighting control module via UDP protocol. The lighting control module can then control the opening and closing of that lighting group. The central control module can place the control operation for this lighting group into a sub-thread to perform the sending task.

[0074] As an example, when the integrated control system of the equipment starts up, the central control module can load control signals by running the following program code:

[0075]

[0076] As an example, the computer can be remotely powered on by running the following program code through the opening / closing module or exhibit control module:

[0077]

[0078]

[0079] As an example, the central control module can run the following program code to transmit control signals via a UDP local area network:

[0080]

[0081]

[0082] As an example, the central control module can run the following program code to transmit control signals via the TCP protocol:

[0083]

[0084]

[0085] As an example, after obtaining the fixed IP address of the TV playback box via the UDP communication protocol, the product control module sends the corresponding control signals to the TV playback box through a designated port. This allows the TV playback box to perform corresponding operations based on the received control signals, thereby controlling various functions such as turning the volume on and off. The central control module can relocate the control signal sending mechanism to a sub-thread to reduce the overhead of the main thread.

[0086] For example, the central control module can run the following program code to control the TV playback box through the exhibit control module:

[0087]

[0088]

[0089]

[0090] In one applicable scenario provided by the present invention, in order to meet the control requirements of special devices, such as devices that support Socket communication, the device integrated control system provided by the present invention also supports Socket communication with these special devices.

[0091] Optionally, the central control module controls the projector and its on / off state asynchronously or synchronously through the opening / closing module or the exhibit control module. By supporting asynchronous control of the projector and its on / off state by the opening / closing module or the exhibit control module, the central control module can avoid the main thread from being blocked and thus reduce the execution pressure on the main thread during the transmission process.

[0092] For example, the central control module can transplant the control signal sending mechanism corresponding to the computer and projector into different sub-threads to achieve asynchronous sending function.

[0093] As an example, the central control module can run the following program code to control the projector and its on / off state asynchronously or synchronously through the opening / closing module or exhibit control module:

[0094]

[0095]

[0096]

[0097] In summary, this invention integrates the characteristics and control protocols of various audio, optical, and electronic multimedia devices, and designs the overall control interface-level control logic. It allows for convenient management and control by importing information from each terminal device through configuration files. Specifically, the host control method utilizes the motherboard's built-in Wake-on-LAN function and leverages the host's existing network cable via UDP to achieve central control power-on and power-off, resulting in simplified wiring, convenient operation, and stable control.

[0098] As described above, the integrated equipment control system provided by this invention adopts a modular design with clear classification and intuitive functional design, allowing users to easily learn and use it without a complex learning process. This simplifies the operation of the control equipment and reduces its cost. Furthermore, it can integrate control for various common devices (such as computers) and less common devices (such as TV boxes), intelligently adapting to various controllable devices to maximize compatibility. It offers comprehensive functionality and supports the addition of corresponding control units (such as the control buttons mentioned above) and their control methods, demonstrating good scalability and openness.
