[0042] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the technical solutions of the present application, and are not used to limit the present application.

[0043] In the present embodiment, for the sake of description, the following is described with the central processing unit of the refrigerator as the execution subject.

[0044] Since most of the existing intelligent voice refrigerators need the user to use a specific wake-up word first to make the voice recognition system enter the wake-up state, and then receive the subsequent voice control instructions. However, if the user forgets to use the correct wake-up word, or misuses other similar words, the system may not respond correctly, thereby affecting the user experience, resulting in poor interaction effect of the refrigerator.

[0045] The present application provides a solution, by setting a human body sensor on the intelligent voice refrigerator, based on the human body data detected by the human body sensor, judging whether the user has the demand to use the refrigerator, at the same time, when the human body data meets the voice activation condition, activating the voice device and charging the timer value, so that the voice device executes the corresponding voice task, and when the timer value reaches the voice threshold, controlling the voice device to enter the dormant state. Based on this, the wake-up state of the voice device can be flexibly controlled through the human body sensor, thereby improving the interaction effect of the user and the refrigerator.

[0046] In order to better understand the technical solutions of the present application, the following will be described in detail in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments of the specification.

[0047] In the present embodiment, the functional module layout diagram of the intelligent voice refrigerator of the present application is as shown in Figure 1As shown, the human body information is collected by the human body sensing sensor, including but not limited to collecting the distance information, angle information and moving direction information of the user and the refrigerator, so as to determine whether to trigger the wake-up instruction of the voice device and the light display device based on the collected information such as whether the distance between the user and the refrigerator meets the preset condition, whether the moving direction of the user meets the preset condition and / or whether the position of the user meets the preset condition. The voice device includes the intelligent voice recognition and processing system of the refrigerator, which realizes the interaction with the user through the integrated voice recognition chip, supports multiple languages and can accurately recognize the voice instruction of the user. After the voice device is woken up, the received voice instruction of the user can be responded to and the corresponding broadcast action such as broadcasting the food information, recipe suggestion or recommended food material of the current refrigerator can be performed, or the refrigerator control action including but not limited to turning on the refrigerator, turning off the refrigerator, adjusting the refrigeration parameter of the refrigerator, etc. The light display device is used to wake up the current voice device, for example, when the light display device is turned on, it indicates that the current voice device is in the wake-up state, which facilitates the user to determine whether the voice device is in the wake-up state by observing the light display device and enhances the user's perception.

[0048] Further, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 The system architecture diagram of the control method of the refrigerator of the present application is provided, wherein the refrigerator includes a central processing unit, a human body sensing device, a voice device and a light display device. The human body sensing device sends the detected human body data to the central processing unit for analysis and judgment. When the human body data meets the wake-up condition of the voice device, the central processing unit sends a wake-up instruction to the voice device to wake up the voice device, so that the refrigerator voice device can be in the interactive state without voice wake-up, thereby improving the interactive effect of the refrigerator. Meanwhile, the wake-up instruction can also be sent to the light display device to turn on the prompt light of the light display device, so that the user can perceive that the current voice device is in the wake-up state.

[0049] Optionally, the voice device, the human body sensing sensor and the light display device can be installed in Figure 1 the area of the top of the refrigerator as shown, and can also be installed in various places of the refrigerator such as the front, side and back of the refrigerator or the inside of the refrigerator. In addition, the voice device can also be installed on the human body sensing sensor to reduce the complexity of the system.

[0050] Optionally, the human body sensing sensor includes but is not limited to infrared, millimeter wave, ultrasonic and other distance sensors, visual sensors for face recognition, gesture recognition and image sensors.

[0051] Optionally, the light display device can be an LED indicator light indicating different states of the voice device by different colors, or an LCD display screen displaying text, icons or simple animations based on the display screen to represent different states of the voice device. In addition, other display methods can also be used for display, which are not limited in the present application.

[0052] Optionally, after the voice device is woken up, a wake-up time is usually set, which is usually set to 10-60 seconds or more. When the human body data detected by the human body sensor meets the voice activation condition within the wake-up time, the voice device is activated and the timer value is reset. If the human body data meeting the voice activation condition is repeatedly detected within the wake-up period, the countdown of the wake-up period will be repeatedly refreshed. In addition, after the user inputs the voice instruction, the timer value will also be reset.

[0053] It should be noted that the above parameters are only used for explanation and are not limited to the present application.

[0054] The present application provides a control method of a refrigerator, which is described with reference to Figure 3 , Figure 3 The present application provides a control method of a refrigerator, which is described with reference to

[0055] In the present embodiment, a human body sensor and a voice device are arranged on the refrigerator, and the control method of the refrigerator comprises steps S10-S30:

[0056] Step S10, if the human body data detected by the human body sensor meets the voice activation condition, the voice device is activated and the timer value is reset.

[0057] It should be noted that the human body sensor includes but is not limited to infrared, millimeter wave, ultrasonic distance sensor, visual sensor for face recognition, gesture recognition, image sensor, etc. The human body sensor and the voice device can be installed simultaneously on the top area of the refrigerator, or can be installed dispersedly on the refrigerator, such as the front, side, back of the refrigerator or the inside of the refrigerator. Optionally, the voice device can also be installed on the human body sensor, and the two are coupled to improve the intelligence of the refrigerator. The voice activation condition includes but is not limited to that the distance between the user and the refrigerator in the detected human body data is within a preset distance range, the user's direction of travel points to the area where the refrigerator is located, the user's current position stays in the voice wake-up area of the refrigerator, the user's identity information such as face, fingerprint, gesture, etc. is accurately identified, etc.

[0058] In the embodiment, when the human body data detected by the human body sensing sensor satisfies the voice activation condition, for example, the human body sensing sensor is an ultrasonic sensor, based on the human body data detected by the sensor, the distance between the user and the refrigerator is within 2-5 meters, at this time, it is judged that the human body data satisfies the voice activation condition, then the voice device is activated and the timing value of the timer is reset, so that the voice device responds to the voice instruction of the user or performs the corresponding voice task based on the current environmental information within the countdown time of the timer, that is, the voice wake-up period.

[0059] In another optional embodiment for judging whether the human body data satisfies the voice activation condition, the refrigerator can determine a voice wake-up area according to the current location, and if the user is in the voice wake-up area, it is judged that the human body data satisfies the voice activation condition. Specifically, the stop position corresponding to the human body data can be determined, and the voice wake-up area determined according to the location of the refrigerator is obtained, and then when the stop position is in the wake-up area, it is determined that the human body data satisfies the voice activation condition. Based on this, the actual stopping position of the user in the human body data is detected by the human body sensing sensor, so that the voice activation judgment is accurately performed, and the voice wake-up false triggering caused by the user walking near the refrigerator is avoided.

[0060] Optionally, the human body sensing sensor can also calculate the moving direction of the target human body, that is, the user, based on the angle information of the detected human body data, and then perform the action of determining the stop position corresponding to the human body data when the moving direction points to the area where the refrigerator is located, thereby avoiding the false triggering of voice wake-up. Specifically, the moving direction of the target human body can be determined according to the human body data, and when the moving direction points to the area corresponding to the location of the refrigerator, the steps of determining the stop position corresponding to the human body data and obtaining the voice wake-up area determined according to the location of the refrigerator are performed.

[0061] Based on this, the human body data detected by the human body sensing sensor is analyzed and processed, and then the voice state of the refrigerator is woken up when the human body data satisfies the voice wake-up condition, thereby avoiding the need for a wake-up word to wake up the processing, improving the user experience, and improving the interaction effect of the refrigerator based on the processing of the detected human body data.

[0062] Step S20, the voice device performs a voice task;

[0063] It should be noted that the voice task refers to the task performed by the voice device, and not the task performed in response to the voice instruction input by the user.

[0064] Based on this, in the embodiment, after the voice device is woken up, in addition to responding to the voice instruction input by the user to perform the related action, if the voice signal input by the user is not received within a period of time after being woken up, that is, the voice signal is empty, a corresponding voice task can also be generated according to the current environmental information.

[0065] Specifically, the voice task can be generated according to the voice signal received by the voice device, and then the information broadcast action and / or the refrigerator control action corresponding to the voice task are performed, or if no voice signal is detected within a preset period of time, a voice task for the refrigerator to perform the information broadcast action is generated based on the current environmental information such as the current period and the current temperature, or the current historical use information and the goods information of the refrigerator. The information broadcast action includes but is not limited to recipe query and recipe suggestion, shopping list management, food shelf life, inventory or maintenance reminder, weather broadcast, and seasonal fruit and vegetable information broadcast. The refrigerator control action includes but is not limited to adjusting the operating parameters of the refrigerator, such as reducing the refrigeration temperature, adjusting the light brightness inside the refrigerator, opening the refrigerator door, entering the energy-saving mode, or limiting the child to open the freezer, etc.

[0066] After the voice device is activated, the corresponding voice task is performed through the voice device, thereby improving the interaction effect between the user and the refrigerator.

[0067] In step S30, if the timing value of the timer is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value, the voice device is controlled to enter a sleep state.

[0068] In the embodiment, the timing value of the timer is the wake-up time of the voice device when the voice device is woken up, and when the timing value is greater than or equal to the preset threshold value, it means that the wake-up period of the voice device has arrived, and the voice device needs to be controlled to enter a sleep state, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the refrigerator and optimizing the use of resources. The length of the preset threshold value can be set based on actual needs, which is not limited here.

[0069] The embodiment provides a control method of a refrigerator. A human body sensing sensor and a voice device are arranged on the refrigerator. The human body data of a user is detected through the human body sensing sensor, and the distance, direction, and position of the human body data are accurately judged. When the human body data meets the voice activation condition, the voice device is activated and the timing value of the timer is reset. Based on this, the intelligent voice refrigerator is woken up without sensing, the user interacts with the refrigerator more naturally, the voice task is executed based on the voice device, and when the voice wake-up time is reached, the voice device is controlled to enter a sleep state. Based on this, the interaction effect between the user and the refrigerator is improved.

[0070] Based on the first embodiment of the present application, in the second embodiment of the present application, the same or similar contents as the above first embodiment can be referred to the above introduction, and the subsequent will not be described. On this basis, the refrigerator is also provided with a prompting device, which can be a light display device such as a prompt light, a display screen, etc., or a voice prompting device. Based on this, please refer to Figure 4 , after step S10, the control method of the refrigerator further comprises step S40:

[0071] Step S40, when the timer value is less than the preset threshold, the prompting device is executed based on the voice device in the wake-up state of the prompting action.

[0072] In this embodiment, the timer value represents the wake-up time of the voice device, and when the timer value is less than the preset threshold, the voice device is still in the wake-up state. Based on this, in order to further improve the user's perception effect, and further improve the user's interaction effect with the refrigerator, at this time, the prompting action of the voice device in the wake-up state can be executed based on the prompting device, for example, when the prompting device is an indicator light, the indicator light can be controlled to be turned on to prompt the user that the voice device is currently in the wake-up state.

[0073] Alternatively, if the prompting device is a display screen, the display screen can display text information that the voice device is in the wake-up state.

[0074] In another optional embodiment, after the timer value is greater than or equal to the preset threshold and the voice device is controlled to enter the sleep state, the prompting device also needs to be controlled to enter the sleep state to prompt the user that the current voice device is in the un-wake-up state.

[0075] Further, after the voice device executes the voice task, if the human body sensor detects human body data again within the voice wake-up period, or the user continuously inputs the voice signal within the voice wake-up period, the timer value needs to be reset. Specifically, when the timer value is less than the preset threshold, if the target human body data detected by the human body sensor or the voice signal received by the voice device, the timer value is reset.

[0076] Exemplarily, in order to help understand the implementation process of the control method of the refrigerator obtained after the above first embodiment, wherein the prompting device is a prompt light, the voice device includes a voice module, the detection device judges the voice wake-up by detecting the distance between the user and the refrigerator, and the timer value is 30 seconds.

[0077] Based on this, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5A brief flowchart of a control method of a refrigerator is provided, specifically: when the voice device is in a voice sleep state, the light of the prompt lamp is turned off, then when it is detected that the user is close to the refrigerator, i.e., the distance between the user and the refrigerator is less than a preset distance, a voice wake-up action is performed and the voice device is woken up, at the same time the light of the indicator lamp is turned on and kept for 30 seconds, within the 30 seconds, when the voice module of the voice device receives a voice instruction, a corresponding voice task is generated. When the light display time of the indicator lamp exceeds 30 seconds, the voice device needs to be controlled to enter the sleep state, and the light of the indicator lamp is turned off. Within the 30 seconds of the voice wake-up period, if the human body sensing data is triggered again, the timing value of the timer needs to be updated and reset, i.e., the light of the indicator lamp starts to count 30 seconds again.

[0078] It should be noted that the parameters of the above examples are only used to understand the present application and do not constitute a limitation on the control method of the refrigerator of the present application. More forms of simple transformation based on this technical concept are within the protection scope of the present application.

[0079] In the present embodiment, the prompt when the voice device is woken up by the prompt device allows the user to know that the voice is in a wake-up state, enhances user perception, and further improves the interaction effect between the user and the refrigerator.

[0080] Based on the first embodiment of the present application, in the third embodiment of the present application, the same or similar contents as the above first embodiment can be referred to the above introduction, and will not be described in detail hereinafter.

[0081] On this basis, as an optional implementation of executing a voice task based on a voice device, when the voice signal is not empty, i.e., the voice device receives a voice signal input by the user, including the user directly talking to the refrigerator or sending a voice signal to the refrigerator through a remote device, the voice signal needs to be parsed, and then a control instruction is generated based on the parsed voice signal, wherein the parsing process includes operations such as pre-processing, feature extraction and analysis, and instruction output of the voice signal, which are not limited here. After obtaining the control instruction, a voice task for broadcast processing and / or a voice task for refrigerator control processing are generated based on the control instruction. For example, the input voice information is "today's weather, if it is lower than 5 degrees Celsius, enter energy-saving mode", and the current environmental temperature is 3 degrees Celsius. After parsing the sentence, the voice device generates a control instruction for weather information broadcast and a control instruction for entering energy-saving mode according to the current detected environmental temperature information, and then generates a voice task for broadcasting weather information and a voice task for controlling the refrigerator to enter energy-saving mode based on the instruction, i.e., encapsulating the control instruction into the voice task, so as to make the refrigerator execute the broadcast action of the voice task corresponding to the weather information and the control action of the refrigerator entering energy-saving mode.

[0082] Optionally, if the input voice information is "what food is placed in the refrigerator for a long time", the voice device generates a voice task of broadcasting information of all foods placed in the refrigerator for more than 3 days after analyzing the sentence. Optionally, if the input voice information is "open the refrigerator door", a voice task of the refrigerator control process of opening the refrigerator door is generated. Based on this, the voice instruction input by the user can be effectively responded, and the corresponding voice task can be generated to control the refrigerator, thereby improving the interaction effect of the refrigerator.

[0083] In another optional implementation of the voice task executed by the voice device, when the voice signal is empty, that is, after triggering the voice activation condition, if the voice device does not detect the voice signal within a preset time period, in order to improve the interaction effect of the refrigerator, the voice device can usually automatically perform a voice task of information broadcasting based on the current environmental information.

[0084] Specifically, if the voice device does not detect the voice signal within the preset time period, the current time period can be determined first, and then a voice broadcasting task is generated based on the current time period, and an information broadcasting action corresponding to the voice broadcasting task is performed. For example, when the current time period is the morning time period such as 7-9 am, a voice task of morning news, music playing or weather broadcasting can be generated; when the current time period is the cooking time period such as 11-13 pm, the storage information of the refrigerator needs to be obtained, and then a voice task corresponding to the recipe suggestion is generated based on the storage information; in addition, if the current time period is the purchasing time period such as 15-17 pm, a voice task corresponding to the item purchasing information can be generated based on the storage information of the refrigerator. Based on this, when no voice signal is received within the preset time period, a voice task of information broadcasting action is generated based on the real-time environmental information, so that the refrigerator executes the corresponding information based on the voice task, thereby improving the interaction effect of the refrigerator. The preset time period is usually less than the timing value of the timer.

[0085] In another optional implementation of the voice task executed by the voice device, the historical voice tasks generated by the voice device can also be determined, and then a target voice task for broadcasting processing is generated based on the historical voice tasks and the current goods information of the refrigerator. For example, among the generated historical voice tasks, 80% of the historical voice tasks are broadcasting the recipe suggestion of today. Based on this, the voice device is woken up, and a target voice task meeting the user's demand is generated based on the task processing amount or the task repetition degree of the historical voice task and the current obtained information, so that the refrigerator executes the information broadcasting action corresponding to the target voice task.

[0086] Optionally, in addition to obtaining the time period information, the current weather information can also be obtained in real time, and a voice task corresponding to the broadcasting information of the corresponding food purchase suggestion or food use suggestion is generated based on the weather information.

[0087] Optionally, historical usage information of the refrigerator can also be obtained, and corresponding voice tasks for information broadcasting can be generated based on this information. Furthermore, corresponding voice tasks for information broadcasting processing can be generated at other times, which will not be elaborated upon here.

[0088] It should be noted that the above parameters are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit this application.

[0089] This application provides a refrigerator, which includes: at least one processor; and a memory communicatively connected to the at least one processor; wherein the memory stores instructions executable by the at least one processor, which are executed by the at least one processor to enable the at least one processor to perform the refrigerator control method of the first embodiment described above.

Although refrigerators with various systems are shown in the figures, it should be understood that implementation or possession of all the systems shown is not required. More or fewer systems may be implemented alternatively.
