Detailed Implementation

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] Currently, the voice interaction supported by smart locks is limited in the number of languages ​​supported, making it difficult to meet the needs of various voice types, such as regional dialects. Furthermore, adding voice commands to smart locks often requires upgrading the voice module, resulting in poor scalability. In addition, the voice interaction function of current smart locks does not support interactions beyond commands, such as chatting or encyclopedia Q&A, which reduces the user experience.

[0021] Based on this, the intelligent door lock interaction method and device provided in this embodiment of the invention can solve the language compatibility problem and support rich language interaction functions, thereby improving the user experience.

[0022] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, a detailed description of the interaction method of a smart door lock disclosed in this embodiment of the invention will be provided first.

[0023] In one possible implementation, this invention provides an interaction method for a smart door lock. Specifically, the smart door lock in this embodiment is equipped with a voice module, enabling voice interaction between the user and the smart door lock. Furthermore, the smart door lock in this embodiment also establishes communication with a third-party voice server. For example, the smart door lock connects to network devices in the home environment, such as routers, to achieve network connectivity and thus establish communication with the third-party voice server.

[0024] Specifically, for ease of understanding, Figure 1 A flowchart illustrating an interaction method for a smart door lock is shown, the method comprising the following steps: Step S102: In response to the smart lock being woken up, receive voice information acting on the smart lock; Smart locks are usually in a dormant state and only interact with the user when they need to be unlocked or locked. Therefore, in this embodiment of the invention, when the user interacts with the smart lock, they usually need to wake up the smart lock first. After confirming that the smart lock has been woken up, the user sends voice information to the smart lock. In the woken-up state, after the smart lock receives the voice information, it can execute the interaction method of the smart lock in this embodiment of the invention.

[0025] Step S104: Recognize voice information through the voice module and a third-party voice server that communicates with the smart door lock to obtain response information for the voice information; In this step S104, the recognition process is usually performed simultaneously by the voice module. That is, the voice module receives and recognizes voice information in real time through its built-in microphone device, and outputs the first response information after recognizing the first response information corresponding to the voice information. At the same time, after the smart door lock receives the voice information, it sends the received voice information to a third-party voice server. The third-party voice server recognizes the voice information and generates the second response information corresponding to the voice information. The third-party voice server is also used to send the second response information to the smart door lock.

[0026] Step S106: Response information is received from either the voice module or the third-party voice server for the voice information output, and the response information is presented.

[0027] In this invention, the third-party voice server typically refers to a cloud server and usually possesses AI voice recognition and interaction capabilities. For example, it can integrate large language models, dialect-specific recognition models, voice recognition and processing technologies, and support cloud-based voice services to enable interaction in multiple languages ​​and dialects. For instance, language compatibility can be achieved through server configuration. Furthermore, when more commands need to be added, corresponding settings can be added to the third-party voice server to recognize the new commands. It also supports a variety of non-command interactions, such as chatting, checking the weather, and searching encyclopedias, providing users with greater emotional value. The specific third-party voice server can be configured according to actual usage, and this invention does not impose any limitations on this.

[0028] Furthermore, the voice module in this embodiment refers to a voice recognition module installed in the smart lock, which can recognize the voice information input by the user. Therefore, this embodiment can simultaneously support the interaction between the voice module and a third-party voice server, thereby ensuring that all voice information input by the user can be responded to, thus enhancing the user's interactive experience. In addition, the smart lock in this embodiment is also equipped with a microphone and speaker for interaction, etc., to facilitate voice interaction with the user. For example, in step S106 above, when presenting the response information, the response information can be played through the speaker to achieve voice interaction with the user. Furthermore, if the voice information sent by the user is a command to configure the smart lock, in step S106 above, when presenting the response information, the corresponding configuration interface can be directly displayed on the smart lock's interactive interface. The specific implementation depends on the actual usage, and this embodiment does not impose any limitations on this.

[0029] This invention provides an interaction method for a smart lock, which receives voice information acting on the smart lock after it is woken up; identifies the voice information through a voice module and a third-party voice server communicating with the smart lock to obtain response information; responds to the received response information from either the voice module or the third-party voice server, and presents the response information. During the voice information recognition process, a mechanism for simultaneous interaction between the voice module and the third-party voice server can be implemented, thereby achieving multilingual compatibility and interaction through the third-party voice server. This eliminates the need for hardware upgrades to the voice module, enriches the interactive content of the smart lock, facilitates its expansion and upgrade, and ultimately improves the user experience.

[0030] In practical use, the interaction process in this embodiment of the invention is performed when the smart lock is in a woke-up state. Therefore, the user needs to wake up the smart lock before interacting. Specifically, the smart lock can be equipped with a wake-up control, which the user can trigger to wake up the smart lock. Furthermore, since the smart lock in this embodiment of the invention is equipped with a voice module, it supports voice wake-up. Specifically, it can receive a wake-up word applied to the smart lock, control the smart lock to be in a woke-up state, and control the smart lock to respond to the corresponding wake-up prompt word.

[0031] In practice, for ease of understanding, Figure 2 A schematic diagram of an application scenario for a smart door lock is shown, such as... Figure 2 As shown, a voice module 201 is illustrated, and the smart door lock in this embodiment includes a first interaction unit 202 and a second interaction unit 203. The first interaction unit 202 is an outdoor-facing interaction unit, and the second interaction unit 203 is an indoor-facing interaction unit. The first interaction unit 202 is connected to the voice module 201, and the second interaction unit 203 is connected to the first interaction unit 202. The second interaction unit also has a network connection unit, which connects to a third-party voice server. For example, taking a smart door lock installed in a home or office setting, the first interaction unit is essentially the interaction unit corresponding to the front lock (outdoor-facing), and the second interaction unit is essentially the interaction unit corresponding to the rear lock (indoor-facing). Furthermore, the smart door lock in this embodiment is also equipped with a device server. Figure 2 The device server 204 shown in the figure is connected to the second interaction unit 203 through the network connection unit, and the device server 204 interacts with the third-party voice server 205.

[0032] For ease of explanation, Figure 2The diagram also shows a network device 206, such as a router, through which the network connection unit of the second interaction unit establishes communication with the device server.

[0033] For ease of understanding, the following is based on Figure 2 The application scenarios shown further illustrate the interaction process of the smart door lock provided in this embodiment of the invention, specifically including the following: When the smart lock is used for the first time, it needs to be initialized. In this embodiment of the invention, the first interaction unit 202 is connected to the voice module 201. Therefore, during the initialization process, the first interaction unit can pull high the power supply pin of the voice module to power on the voice module and parse the initialization protocol information of the voice module. Further, the second interaction unit connects to a network device via Wi-Fi, and then connects to the device server, reporting its own device serial number to the device server. At this time, the device server can assign a product ID to the smart lock and determine the role ID of the smart lock. Simultaneously, the device server calls a third-party interface and initializes the interaction channel with the third-party voice server. Furthermore, for security reasons, the interaction channel with the third-party voice server can also be encrypted, depending on the actual usage. This embodiment of the invention does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0034] After the initialization process is complete, the user can wake up the smart lock. For example, when the user is outdoors, they can wake up the smart lock using a wake word. The voice module can then recognize the wake word and put the smart lock into a woken-up state. Specifically, the voice module recognizes the wake word applied to the smart lock. Once successfully recognized, it sends a wake-up signal to the first interaction unit to wake it up; and then sends a wake-up signal to the second interaction unit to wake it up. After the second interaction unit is woken up, it confirms that the smart lock is in a woken-up state. At this point, the smart lock responds with the corresponding wake-up prompt. For example, the user says the wake word "XX" or "XX," and after confirming the smart lock is in a woken-up state, it plays the response wake-up prompt "I'm here," "Here," or "Please give instructions," etc., and sends a dialogue creation protocol to the device server. This protocol carries the current dialogue ID. Simultaneously, the device server can use a third-party interface to call a third-party voice server and create a dialogue.

[0035] Furthermore, for the smart lock, once it is determined that the smart lock is in an awakened state, the unlocking control is displayed through the first interaction unit; for example, an interaction interface is displayed on the outdoor interaction unit, and the interface displays unlocking controls for inputting unlocking commands, such as fingerprint controls, password controls, etc. Then, the unlocking operation applied to the unlocking control is responded to, and the legality of the unlocking operation is verified; if the unlocking operation is verified as legal, the smart lock is unlocked. That is, once it is determined that the smart lock is in an awakened state, the user can unlock it normally and also interact with the smart lock. Moreover, after the smart lock is awakened, the user can interact with the smart lock from a certain distance away outdoors, or even from inside the house, depending on the actual usage; this embodiment of the invention does not impose any limitations on this.

[0036] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the invention, the user's voice information is typically collected from the second interaction unit side. However, in other embodiments, voice information can also be collected from the first interaction unit side, depending on the actual usage. This embodiment of the invention does not impose any limitations on this. In this embodiment, the collection of the user's voice information from the second interaction unit side is used as an example. Specifically, when the user interacts with the smart lock, the start and end of the voice information can be determined. For example, the second interaction unit continuously collects audio in units of 20 milliseconds, caches the most recent 500 milliseconds of audio data, and detects human voice within these 500 milliseconds. This indicates the start of speaking, and the recording status is "speaking begins." The cached 500 milliseconds of audio is first sent to the device server, and the collected audio is then directly sent to the device server. The device server forwards the received audio to a third-party voice server. When the second interaction unit detects 500 consecutive milliseconds without human voice, it sends a prompt message to the device server indicating the end of speaking and stops collecting audio. Furthermore, on the device server side, a maximum duration threshold for no audio can be preset, such as 5 seconds. When this maximum duration threshold is exceeded and no new voice information is received, the device server can push a pre-set audio message to the smart lock, such as "I didn't hear you clearly, please say it again." If no new voice information is received, the conversation is considered to have ended.

[0037] Meanwhile, during this process, the voice module can also collect and recognize the audio of the voice information on its own, and at this time, neither the first interaction unit nor the second interaction unit needs to send audio to the voice module.

[0038] Furthermore, the voice module in this embodiment of the invention is typically configured to recognize commands from the smart lock. For example, the voice module can pre-store a certain number of commands. After recognizing a command, it can compare it with its stored commands. If the confidence level is high, it indicates that the corresponding command has been recognized, such as speaking louder or bringing up the configuration interface. In this case, the smart lock can execute the action corresponding to the command. For interactive voice information, a third-party voice server is usually used for recognition to obtain more appropriate response information.

[0039] Therefore, in this embodiment of the invention, in step S104 above, after receiving the voice information, the information type of the voice information can be identified. If the information type is instruction information, the voice module can return a first response information based on the instruction information. However, if the information type is interactive information, the voice module usually has difficulty recognizing it. Since the voice information has been sent to a third-party voice server, the voice information can be recognized by the third-party voice server, and a second response information matching the voice information returned by the third-party voice server can be received. That is, in this embodiment of the invention, the first response information represents the response information recognized and fed back by the voice module, and the second response information represents the voice information recognized and fed back by the third-party voice server. The voice module can recognize instruction information; therefore, the corresponding first response information can be action information or sound information. If it is action information, the first interactive unit or the second interactive unit can be notified to perform the corresponding action, such as calling up the corresponding interface, etc. If it is sound information, the sound can be played directly through the speaker. The second response information fed back by the third-party voice server is usually the sound information generated by the interaction with the user. Therefore, it can be played directly through the speaker. Of course, the first or second response information can also be image information, such as image information captured by the smart door lock at a certain moment or time period. In this case, the image information can be presented through the interactive interface of the first or second interactive unit. The specific presentation method depends on the actual use. This embodiment of the invention does not limit this.

[0040] Furthermore, in step S106 above, when responding to the received response information, if a response is received from either the voice module or the third-party voice server, it is determined that the voice information response information has been obtained. Specifically, if the response information from the voice module is received first, the interaction with the third-party voice server is interrupted, and the response information from the voice module is presented; if the response information from the third-party voice server is received first, the response information from the third-party voice server is presented, and at this time the voice module is in a state of only receiving wake words.

[0041] In practical use, when sending voice information to a third-party voice server that communicates with the smart lock, the second interaction unit typically sends the voice information to the device server first. The device server then calls the third-party voice server to send the voice information there and establishes a dialogue between the device server and the third-party voice server. The voice module, on the other hand, can collect and recognize voice information in real time. Therefore, when voice information is received, the latency to the voice module is shorter. If the voice module can recognize the voice information, it can provide a response earlier, which is the official response to the voice information. If the voice module cannot recognize the voice information, the third-party voice server can recognize it and provide a response. If responses are received from both the voice module and the third-party voice server simultaneously, it means that both the voice module and the third-party voice server have recognized the voice information and provided responses. Usually, the response from the voice module takes precedence, and the interaction with the third-party voice server is interrupted.

[0042] Furthermore, for the second response information fed back by the third-party voice server, the device server can receive the second response information fed back by the third-party voice server, and the device server can send the second response information to the second interaction unit; the second interaction unit can then notify the first interaction unit so that the first interaction unit can present the second response information.

[0043] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the invention, to facilitate interaction with the smart lock, after the smart lock is woken up, if the voice information contains the instruction to open chat mode, the smart lock's state is set to chat mode; then, a wake-up word applied to the smart lock is received, and the chat mode is stopped. For example, the voice module or a third-party voice server can recognize the aforementioned instruction to open chat mode. In this case, both the first and second interaction units can be set to chat mode. In this chat mode, the voice module or the third-party voice server does not process the instruction information; that is, even if the voice module or the third-party voice server parses the instruction information, such as setting the smart lock, it will not respond to the instruction information. In this chat mode, in addition to recognizing the interaction information, the voice module or the third-party voice server is configured to only process the wake-up word; that is, if a wake-up word applied to the smart lock is received, the chat mode is stopped. For example, in this chat mode, if the smart lock recognizes a wake word while playing interactive or response information, it will stop playing other audio and then perform the recognition of the voice information following the wake word. Furthermore, the response information fed back by the voice module or third-party voice server in the previous chat mode can be discarded, and the user can re-enter the chat mode and continue the subsequent chat content.

[0044] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the invention, considering that users typically spend time indoors and have a need to interact with the smart lock indoors, a separate wake-up word can be set for the second interaction unit facing indoors, i.e., the second wake-up word in this embodiment of the invention. The second interaction unit is then activated in response to the second wake-up word. At this time, an interactive interface can be displayed on the second interaction unit, and voice information acting on the smart lock can be received through the second interaction unit. Similarly, the acquired voice information can be recognized and responded to through the voice module and a third-party voice server communicating with the smart lock, and the response information can be presented.

[0045] In practical use, in this embodiment of the invention, all audio that needs to be played can be placed in the circular buffer of the smart lock. Furthermore, an interface for clearing the buffer can be set up to quickly interrupt the playing audio. Additionally, a separate thread can be used to retrieve data from the circular buffer and decode it for playback. Moreover, audio data that needs to be sent to the device server can also be placed in the circular buffer first, and a separate thread can be used to determine whether to send or discard the data based on the dialogue status. The specific data storage method can be set according to actual usage, and this embodiment of the invention does not impose any restrictions on it.

[0046] Furthermore, based on the above embodiments, this invention also provides an interactive device for a smart door lock, applied to a smart door lock. The smart door lock is equipped with a voice module, and the smart door lock also establishes communication with a third-party voice server, such as... Figure 3 The diagram shows the structure of an interactive device for a smart door lock. The device includes: The receiving module 30 is used to receive voice information applied to the smart lock in response to the smart lock being woken up; The recognition module 32 is used to recognize the voice information through the voice module and a third-party voice server communicating with the smart door lock, so as to obtain the response information of the voice information; The response module 34 is used to respond to the response information received from either the voice module or the third-party voice server in response to the voice information, and to present the response information.
