Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of safety assistance technology, and in particular to a smart assistance method for outdoor camping using a mobile phone. Background Technology
[0002] Outdoor camping, as an activity that allows people to get close to nature and relax, is becoming increasingly popular. There is also some research within the industry regarding outdoor camping and related equipment.
[0003] For example, application CN202110492382.4 provides a multifunctional outdoor camping tent. This technical solution includes poles and a tent fabric. Positioning feet are installed at the bottom of the poles, and a structural base plate is installed inside the positioning feet. A four-way connector is connected to the top of the poles, and a canopy pole is installed on top of the four-way connector. A structural support is welded above the canopy pole, and a telescopic mechanism is installed above the structural support via an insert. A waterproof canopy is laid on the outside of the canopy poles. The tent fabric is installed between the poles, with a front door and side windows on the side walls. This technical solution achieves multiple functions such as waterproofing and insulation. The inflatable mattress at the bottom provides a reliable and comfortable resting environment for the user. The independent design of the waterproof canopy and tent fabric avoids interference between the waterproofing and insulation functions, thus realizing specific functionalities.
[0004] Another application, CN202411747903.6, discloses a solar-powered outdoor camping light. This solution includes a light body with multiple solar charging components rotatably mounted on its upper part. These components are evenly distributed along the circumference of the light body. Each component includes a first solar charging panel and two second solar charging panels, located on either side of the first panel and connected to and overlapping it. Multiple lighting lamps are fixedly mounted on the lower part of the light body. A power supply component is located inside the light body, electrically connected to the lighting lamps, the first solar charging panels, and the second solar charging panels. This solution improves the light's battery life and lighting effect.
[0005] However, actual outdoor camping often presents safety challenges, and the aforementioned technical solutions do not address these challenges, lack effective safety warning mechanisms, and cannot detect potential dangers in a timely manner, such as the approach of wild animals. This results in the inability to meet the safety protection needs of campers during actual outdoor camping. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In view of the problems existing in the field of existing safety assistance technology, the present invention is proposed.
[0007] Therefore, one of the objectives of this invention is to provide a smart assistance method for outdoor camping using a mobile phone. By obtaining the camping location on the mobile phone and deploying infrared sensors for environmental safety monitoring, it can accurately identify the activity patterns and threat levels of wild animals. Based on multi-dimensional data such as distance changes, movement speed, and acceleration, it can achieve graded early warning, effectively improving campers' ability to perceive and respond to potential dangers in advance.
[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution: This invention provides a mobile phone-based smart assistance method for outdoor camping, comprising the following steps: S10: Acquire relevant data, including obtaining the camping location on the mobile phone, and performing environmental safety monitoring based on the location. The environmental safety monitoring includes deploying environmental safety sensors around the camping tent, including infrared sensors. S20: Obtain the distance between the infrared sensors and the camping tent based on the deployed infrared sensors, as well as the number of deployed infrared sensors, and obtain the infrared sensors closest to and farthest from the camping tent based on the number of sensors. S30: Mark the infrared sensor furthest from the camping tent as infrared sensor I. When infrared sensor I detects wild animals, calculate the change in distance between the wild animals and infrared sensor I, and analyze the activity patterns of wild animals based on the change in distance. S40: Mark the infrared sensor closest to the camping tent as infrared sensor II, acquire the infrared sensor arranged between infrared sensor II and infrared sensor I, mark the infrared sensor as reference infrared sensor, and make relevant settings based on infrared sensor between infrared sensor I and reference infrared sensor; S50: The relevant settings include setting at least 4 distance segments based on the distance between the reference infrared sensor and the I infrared sensor, marking the two distance segments closer to the I infrared sensor as the main distance segments, and performing relevant calculations based on the main distance segments when the reference infrared sensor detects wild animals; S60: The relevant calculation includes calculating the change in the movement speed of wild animals in the main distance segment. If the change in movement speed in the main distance segment shows an accelerating trend, an alarm signal is issued on the mobile phone; otherwise, no alarm signal is issued.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in step S30, the distance change between the wild animal and the infrared sensor I is calculated using the following formula: ; In the formula, Indicates the distance between the infrared sensor and wild animals; Represents the speed of light. This represents the time difference between the transmission and reception of the infrared signal from the infrared sensor I.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the following formula is also included: ; In the formula, Indicates the movement speed of wild animals; This indicates the change in distance between each two monitoring sessions; This indicates the time interval between two monitoring sessions.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in step S60, the change in the movement speed of the wild animal in the main distance segment is calculated according to the following formula: ; In the formula, Indicates wild animals in the Movement speed within each main distance segment; Indicates the first The length of each principal distance segment; Indicates that wild animals pass through the first The time for each main range segment is calculated using a reference infrared sensor trigger timestamp.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, if, based on the calculation results, the distance between the wild animal and the infrared sensor I shows a decreasing trend, then an infrared sensor is acquired that is horizontally positioned relative to the reference infrared sensor. This horizontal positioning is based on the camping tent and is horizontally positioned to the left and right of the reference infrared sensor. The infrared sensor is then labeled as... When the distance between the wild animal and the infrared sensor I shows a decreasing trend, the movement of the wild animal toward the reference infrared sensor and... Changes, if wild animals move toward the reference infrared sensor and If any of the sensors moves, it is determined that the wild animal is approaching the camping tent in the direction corresponding to the infrared sensor, and an alarm signal is sent to the mobile phone.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, when it is determined that a wild animal is approaching the camping tent in the direction corresponding to the infrared sensor, the time when the infrared sensor II detects the wild animal is obtained, and the acceleration of the wild animal moving towards the infrared sensor II at the location of the corresponding infrared sensor is calculated based on the time, according to the following formula: ; In the formula, The acceleration is the average acceleration of the wild animal as it moves toward the II infrared sensor. Indicates the instantaneous velocity of the wild animal when it reaches the II infrared sensor; This indicates the instantaneous velocity of the wild animal as it leaves the corresponding infrared sensor; This indicates the time it takes for a wild animal to move from the corresponding infrared sensor to the II infrared sensor.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the time taken for a wild animal to move from the corresponding infrared sensor to the II infrared sensor is marked as the risk time, the risk time is equally divided into at least 6 time periods, and the distance the wild animal moves toward the II infrared sensor in each time period is obtained.
[0015] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the alarm is classified based on the movement distance. If the movement distance of the wild animal in the first to second time period is greater than the movement distance of the wild animal in the third to fourth time period, an alarm signal is issued on the mobile phone indicating that the wild animal is continuously moving towards the camping tent. If the movement distance of the wild animal in the third to fourth time period is shorter than the movement distance of the wild animal in the first to second time period, an alarm signal is issued on the mobile phone indicating that the wild animal is wandering around the camping tent.
[0016] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, if an alarm signal indicating that wild animals are wandering around the camping tent is issued on the mobile phone, then during the third to fourth time period, it is determined whether the I infrared sensor has detected wild animals. If the I infrared sensor detects wild animals for more than 60 seconds, it is determined that the wild animals are wandering around the camping tent and are moving away from the camping tent.
[0017] Beneficial effects: 1. By marking the farthest infrared sensor (I infrared sensor), the system detects changes in the distance of wild animals and analyzes their activity paths and speed trends. For example, if a wild animal repeatedly lingers within 50 meters of a tent, the system can determine that it is a low threat; if it continues to approach within 20 meters and its speed increases, it is upgraded to a high threat. 2. When wild animals suddenly increase their speed within a certain distance of the camping tent, a mobile phone alarm will be triggered to prompt campers to take defensive measures. In conjunction with the horizontally positioned infrared sensors, the system will determine whether wild animals are moving towards the camping tent.
[0018] 3. Divide the risk time into 6 equal time periods and determine the threat level by the movement distance in each time period. If the movement distance in the first two time periods is longer than that in the last two time periods, it is judged as "continuous approach". If the movement distance in the last two time periods is shorter, it is judged as "loitering or retreating". This helps to prompt campers to check whether there is food left or other attractive factors around their camping tents, so that campers can take defensive measures. Attached Figure Description
[0019] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention, the drawings used in the description of the embodiments will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort. Wherein: Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the method flow according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the process structure of an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation
[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] Because actual outdoor camping often presents safety challenges, and existing technological solutions do not focus on these challenges and lack effective safety warning mechanisms, they cannot detect potential dangers in a timely manner, such as the approach of wild animals. This results in the inability to meet the safety protection needs of campers during actual outdoor camping.
[0022] Based on this, the present invention proposes a smart assistance method for outdoor camping using a mobile phone. By obtaining the camping location on the mobile phone and deploying infrared sensors for environmental safety monitoring, it can accurately identify the activity patterns and threat levels of wild animals. Based on multi-dimensional data such as distance changes, movement speed and acceleration, it can realize graded early warning, effectively improve campers' ability to perceive and respond to potential dangers in advance, and reduce the false alarm rate, providing a low-cost and highly reliable safety guarantee solution for outdoor camping activities.
[0023] The present solution will be further described in detail below through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 2 As one embodiment of the present invention, this embodiment provides a mobile phone-based smart assistance method for outdoor camping, comprising the following steps: S10: Acquire relevant data, including obtaining the camping location on the mobile device, and performing environmental safety monitoring based on the location. Environmental safety monitoring includes deploying environmental safety sensors around the camping tent, including infrared sensors. It should be noted that the infrared sensor is connected to the mobile application via a wireless communication module (such as Bluetooth or Wi-Fi). When the infrared sensor detects that wild animals are approaching, it will send an alarm signal to the mobile phone. The camping location is located via mobile phone, and infrared sensors are deployed around the tent to collect environmental data in real time. The environmental data is updated via mobile phone, making it easy for campers to monitor environmental risks at any time. S20: Based on the deployed infrared sensors, obtain the distance between the infrared sensors and the camping tent, as well as the number of deployed infrared sensors, and based on the number, obtain the infrared sensors that are closest to and farthest from the camping tent. S30: Mark the infrared sensor furthest from the camping tent as Infrared Sensor I. When Infrared Sensor I detects wild animals, calculate the change in distance between the wild animals and Infrared Sensor I, and analyze the activity patterns of wild animals based on the distance change. S40: Mark the infrared sensor closest to the camping tent as infrared sensor II, acquire the infrared sensor arranged between infrared sensor II and infrared sensor I, mark the infrared sensor as reference infrared sensor, and make relevant settings based on the reference infrared sensor between infrared sensor I and reference infrared sensor; S50: The relevant settings include setting at least 4 distance segments based on the distance between the reference infrared sensor and the I infrared sensor, marking the two distance segments closer to the I infrared sensor as the main distance segments, and performing relevant calculations based on the main distance segments when the reference infrared sensor detects wild animals. In this embodiment, the main range segment focuses on high-risk areas (such as within 20 meters of the farthest sensor) to reduce the amount of data processing in low-risk areas and improve system efficiency. Campers can customize the length of the main distance segment (e.g., 10 meters for bear activity area and 5 meters for general area) to adapt to different environmental needs; S60: The relevant calculations include calculating the changes in the movement speed of wild animals in the main distance segment. If the change in movement speed in the main distance segment shows an accelerating trend, an alarm signal will be issued on the mobile phone; otherwise, no alarm signal will be issued.
[0025] In S30, the change in distance between the wild animal and infrared sensor I is calculated using the following formula: ; In the formula, Indicates the distance between the infrared sensor and wild animals; In this embodiment, the threat level is distinguished by the trend of distance change (such as shortening or fluctuation) to avoid false alarms (such as birds flying by not triggering an alarm). Represents the speed of light. This represents the time difference between the transmission and reception of the infrared signal from infrared sensor I.
[0026] It also includes calculations based on the following formula: ; In the formula, Indicates the movement speed of wild animals; This indicates the change in distance between each two monitoring sessions; This indicates the time interval between two monitoring sessions.
[0027] By continuously monitoring changes in distance, it can be determined whether wild animals are approaching ( ) or stay away ( )tent.
[0028] It should be noted that in the two formulas above, the infrared sensor in the first formula emits an infrared signal, which is reflected back to the sensor after encountering a wild animal. By measuring the time difference between the round trip of the signal and combining it with the speed of light, the straight-line distance between the sensor and the wild animal can be calculated. This formula provides basic distance data for subsequent analysis and is the core basis for determining whether a wild animal is approaching the camping tent. The second formula calculates the change in distance per unit time by continuously monitoring the distance between wild animals and infrared sensors (using the first formula), and then divides it by the time interval to obtain the movement speed of the wild animals. The first formula is the basis of the second formula, and the second formula contains... The time interval between each two monitoring sessions is independent of the time difference between the infrared signal transmission and reception in the first formula, but it needs to be recorded synchronously via a mobile phone clock. The first formula ensures the accuracy of distance monitoring (with an error range of approximately ±0.5 meters), providing reliable data for speed calculation; The second formula transforms static distance data into dynamic behavioral judgments (such as approaching or withdrawing) through velocity analysis, significantly improving the real-time performance of threat assessment.
[0029] In S60, the change in the moving speed of wild animals in the main distance segment is calculated using the following formula: ; In the formula, Indicates wild animals in the Movement speed within each main distance segment; Indicates the first The length of each principal distance segment; Indicates that wild animals pass through the first The time for each main range segment is calculated using the trigger timestamp of the reference infrared sensor.
[0030] For example, if the length of the main distance segment 1 is 2 meters, and it takes a wild animal 1 second to go from entering the main distance segment 1 to leaving it, then... =2m / s.
[0031] Based on the calculation results, if the distance between wild animals and infrared sensor I shows a decreasing trend, then the infrared sensors with the acquisition and reference infrared sensors set horizontally, and those with the camping tent as the base and the reference infrared sensor set horizontally to the left and right, will be labeled as follows: When the distance between the wild animal and the I infrared sensor shows a decreasing trend, the movement of the wild animal toward the reference infrared sensor and... Changes, if wild animals move towards the reference infrared sensor and If any of the sensors moves, it is determined that the wild animal is approaching the camping tent in the direction corresponding to the infrared sensor, and an alarm signal is sent to the mobile phone.
[0032] When it is determined that a wild animal is approaching the camping tent in the direction of the corresponding infrared sensor, the time when the wild animal is detected by infrared sensor II is obtained. Based on the time, the acceleration of the wild animal as it moves towards infrared sensor II from the location of the corresponding infrared sensor is calculated using the following formula: ; In the formula, This represents acceleration, which is the average acceleration of the wild animal as it moves toward the II infrared sensor; Indicates the instantaneous velocity of the wild animal when it reaches the II infrared sensor; This indicates the instantaneous velocity of the wild animal as it leaves the corresponding infrared sensor; This indicates the time it takes for a wild animal to move from the corresponding infrared sensor to the II infrared sensor.
[0033] If a wild animal starts from the corresponding infrared sensor (5 meters away from the camping tent) with an initial velocity of 1 m / s, and its velocity increases to 3 m / s when it reaches infrared sensor II (2 meters away from the camping tent) after 2 seconds, then its acceleration is: ; This indicates that wild animals are rapidly approaching the tent; The time taken for a wild animal to move from the corresponding infrared sensor to the II infrared sensor is marked as the risk time. The risk time is divided into at least 6 equal time periods, and the distance the wild animal moves toward the II infrared sensor is obtained in each time period.
[0034] The alert is classified based on the distance the wild animals travel. If the distance the wild animals travel in the first and second time periods is greater than the distance they travel in the third and fourth time periods, an alert signal will be issued on the mobile phone indicating that the wild animals are continuing to move towards the camping tent. If the distance the wild animals travel in the third and fourth time periods is shorter than the distance they travel in the first and second time periods, an alert signal will be issued on the mobile phone indicating that the wild animals are wandering around the camping tent. Based on the above, if an alarm signal is issued on the mobile phone indicating that wild animals are wandering around the camping tent, then during the third to fourth time period, it is determined whether the I infrared sensor has detected wild animals. If the I infrared sensor detects wild animals for more than 60 seconds, it is determined that the wild animals are wandering around the camping tent and are moving away from the camping tent. The threat level is determined by the distance the bear moves in each time period. For example, if the bear moves 15 meters quickly in the first two time periods and only 3 meters in the last two time periods, the system determines that its threat level has decreased, thus avoiding excessive alarms. By combining continuous detection data from the infrared sensor (e.g., detecting the target continuously for more than 60 seconds), it can be confirmed that wild animals are retreating towards the camping tent, reducing false alarms.
[0035] In summary, this application, by acquiring campsite location information on a mobile device and deploying infrared sensors for environmental safety monitoring, can accurately identify the activity patterns and threat levels of wild animals. Based on multi-dimensional data such as distance changes, movement speed, and acceleration, it enables graded early warnings, effectively improving campers' ability to perceive and respond to potential dangers in advance, while reducing false alarm rates. This provides a low-cost, highly reliable safety solution for outdoor camping activities.
[0036] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
