After a trial installation to verify stability, the rod body is removed again. Function execution modules 300, such as the lighting module 310, audio module 320, and sensor module 330, are then installed. Once the function execution modules 300 are installed, the retractable elastic rod 100 with the function execution modules 300 is again installed between the two prepared parallel building surfaces 400.
[0081] The second step is to power on the device 600 and initially start the wireless control box 200. Of course, an external civilian AC power supply or battery can be connected here. After the power is turned on, test whether the radio remote control can remotely control the device. The user can use the remote control to implement basic functions such as turning on and off the lights, adjusting the brightness and color of the lights, ultraviolet sterilization, infrared laser positioning, laser light, and adjusting the volume of the audio.
[0082] The third step is to put the wireless network module 210 into operation, which includes WiFi network connection and Bluetooth connection. It can be connected to the user's mobile terminal to interactively control smart devices, such as playing music after connecting to Bluetooth, controlling the switch of lights through the mobile terminal APP, and adjusting the brightness and color of lights using the mobile terminal APP.
[0083] In the fourth step, the user configures a WiFi network account for the wireless network module 210 through the APP interactive interface of the mobile terminal to ensure that the device is connected to the network and interacts with other devices through the IoT services in the network, such as combining TVs, air conditioners, sweepers, automatic curtains, etc. to realize the intelligence of IoT scenes.
[0084] Step 5: After accessing the network, the microprocessor and software operating system in the main control circuit module 220 can download relevant data from the network, thereby realizing software upgrades, hardware driver upgrades, and drivers after new hardware is connected.
[0085] In the sixth step, the sensor module 330 on the device 600 expands the spatial radiation angle from a high position downward to achieve real-time perception of the environment and signal reception, such as voice recognition, identification of whether there is someone in the room, the lighting conditions of the room, infrared high temperature anomalies, and even image AI recognition warnings through cameras.
[0086] In step 7, after multiple devices 600 are connected to the network, the user can configure their spatial positions through the mobile terminal. The user can configure synchronization relationships or spatial relationships, such as the synchronization or relative program of multiple light changes, or the left and right channels and spatial positions of different channels of multiple speakers;
[0087] The eighth step is to intelligentize the overall IoT human-machine scenario. This step features configuration and spatial relationships with other devices. Multiple devices 600 are connected to a server network, for example, by adding spatial information annotation for AR and VR devices. This integrates IoT cloud-based intelligence with local intelligence, enabling spatial computing-based audio, light, and human collaboration. This enables higher-level smart home control, home security monitoring, family theme parties, home theaters, home karaoke, and even commercial entertainment scenarios.
[0088] To sum up, the elastic rod smart home device 600 of Example 1 achieves quick and lossless installation, high integration of various parts, and realizes lighting, audio and multi-functional IoT environment, which saves users a lot of installation, connection and debugging troubles. Moreover, the device is installed high in the room and can provide wide spatial coverage downward, realize environmental perception, signal reception, and provide excellent audio-visual effects, which significantly improves the user's visual, auditory experience and human-computer interaction experience.
