Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of computer peripheral technology, and in particular to an intelligent peripheral with permission guidance function. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of AI peripherals, such as smart mice and AI input devices, after connecting to a computer, they typically require driver installation and system permission configuration to achieve functions such as voice control and assisted operation. In existing technologies, upon first use, users must manually access the relevant settings interface of the operating system to grant permissions, or rely on accompanying software for guidance. For example, some current peripherals use accompanying software CDs or pop-up prompts to guide users through permission settings, which is still a passive software-level guidance solution.
[0003] However, the above methods generally have the following problems: on the one hand, the permission setting path is relatively complex, and the interface hierarchy of different operating systems varies greatly, requiring users to search multiple times, making the operation unintuitive; on the other hand, some peripherals lack an effective first-connection identification mechanism, failing to automatically trigger permission guidance when the device is connected, causing users to easily miss key setting steps, thereby affecting the normal functioning of the device.
[0004] In addition, most existing solutions rely on software-level guidance, requiring users to actively run applications, lacking automatic triggering capabilities based on the hardware level, and the overall user experience needs to be improved.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an intelligent peripheral that can automatically trigger permission setting guidance through hardware structure when the peripheral is first connected to the computer, so as to improve ease of use and system adaptation efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0006] The present invention aims to provide an intelligent peripheral device with permission guidance function to solve the problems in the prior art where peripheral devices require manual searching of permission setting paths when used for the first time, the guidance method relies on software and is not intuitive, and key configuration steps are easily missed, thereby improving the ease of use of the device and the user experience.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] A smart peripheral device with access control functionality includes a peripheral casing and also includes:
[0009] The built-in storage hardware is a NAND-type SPI interface flash memory hardware, which is fixedly packaged on the PCB board inside the peripheral housing and is electrically connected to the peripheral's MCU control circuit through the SPI bus.
[0010] The initial connection detection hardware circuit is integrated on the PCB board and is electrically connected to the built-in storage hardware and MCU control circuit. The initial connection detection hardware circuit includes a transistor trigger module and a non-volatile hardware register unit. The transistor trigger module is used to detect the electrical connection status of the USB interface between the smart peripheral and the external computer at the hardware level. The non-volatile hardware register unit is electrically connected to the transistor trigger module and is used to record and store the initial connection completion flag data of the smart peripheral at the hardware level. The flag data is binary status data and is not lost after power failure to ensure that the permission boot process is not triggered repeatedly after the device is powered on again.
[0011] The built-in storage hardware has permission settings for guiding data.
[0012] The MCU control circuit is configured to: respond to the trigger signal output by the transistor trigger module, when the flag bit data in the non-volatile hardware register unit is in an untriggered state, control the built-in storage hardware to output the permission setting guidance data to the external computer through the USB data channel, and control the non-volatile hardware register unit to update the flag bit data to a triggered state, so that the external computer can generate a hardware-triggered permission setting guidance interface.
[0013] Furthermore, the built-in storage hardware simultaneously stores driver installation program data and permission setting guidance data, wherein the driver installation program data is hardware driver data adapted to the target computer architecture.
[0014] Furthermore, the permission setting guidance data embedded in the built-in storage hardware is static graphic guidance data adapted to the operating system, and the graphic guidance data is a hardware configuration step diagram in image format.
[0015] Furthermore, the non-volatile hardware register unit further adopts a hardware storage device with write protection function. After the flag bit data completes the first trigger write, the hardware write protection mechanism prevents the software from accidentally rewriting it, thereby improving the reliability of the flag bit data during the first connection.
[0016] Furthermore, the permission setting guidance data embedded in the built-in storage hardware contains pre-embedded hyperlink data. When the external computer generates the permission setting guidance interface, the hyperlink data is presented as a hyperlink control. When the user triggers the hyperlink control, it is used to jump to the corresponding permission setting page of the operating system.
[0017] Furthermore, the driver installation program data embedded in the built-in storage hardware is triggered by the MCU control circuit when the smart peripheral establishes an electrical connection with the USB interface of the external computer; the driver installation program data complies with the driver signature and security specifications of the target operating system, and automatically completes the installation under the condition that the operating system security policy allows, without the need for manual intervention during the installation process.
[0018] Furthermore, the intelligent peripheral is a mouse device with a wired USB interface, and the PCB board is fixedly installed in a slot structure inside the peripheral housing.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0020] 1. By setting up a first-connection detection hardware circuit, the system can automatically identify and trigger the first-connection status between peripherals and the computer at the hardware level. Compared with a pure software boot solution, the triggering time is earlier and the stability is higher, without requiring the user to actively run the application.
[0021] 2. By pre-storing permission setting guidance data through built-in storage hardware, the guidance information is automatically output upon first connection, realizing a plug-and-play permission guidance function;
[0022] 3. By outputting guide data via the USB data channel, a boot interface can be directly generated on an external computer, avoiding the need for users to manually search for the settings path;
[0023] 4. Implement permission guidance through hardware triggering, reducing user operation steps, lowering the threshold for use, and improving the overall user experience;
[0024] 5. The overall structure is simple and easy to integrate into existing smart peripheral products, making it valuable for promotion and application. Attached Figure Description

[0038] The transistor trigger module 61 is used to detect the electrical connection status between the USB interface module 5 and the external computer at the hardware level, and outputs a trigger signal when an electrical connection is established at the USB interface. The non-volatile hardware register unit 62 is electrically connected to the transistor trigger module 61 and is used to record and store the first connection completion flag data of the intelligent peripheral. The flag data is binary status data. The non-volatile hardware register unit 62 has non-volatile storage characteristics, and the stored flag data is not lost after power failure, thereby ensuring that the permission boot process is not triggered repeatedly after the device is powered on again.
[0039] The MCU control circuit 3 is configured to: when the transistor trigger module 61 detects that the USB interface module 5 has established an electrical connection with the external computer and outputs a trigger signal, and the flag bit data in the non-volatile hardware register unit 62 is in an untriggered state, control the built-in storage hardware 4 to output the permission setting guidance data to the external computer through the USB data channel, and control the non-volatile hardware register unit 62 to update the flag bit data to a triggered state, so that the external computer generates a permission setting guidance interface based on the data.
[0040] In a preferred embodiment, the built-in storage hardware 4 also stores driver installation program data. When the smart peripheral establishes an electrical connection with the USB interface of an external computer, the MCU control circuit 3 triggers the execution of the driver installation program data.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment, the permission setting guidance data embedded in the built-in storage hardware 4 contains pre-embedded hyperlink data. When the external computer generates the permission setting guidance interface, the hyperlink data is presented as a hyperlink control, which is used to jump to the permission setting page of the operating system to further guide the user to complete the permission configuration.
