Detailed Description of the Embodiments

[0005] In view of the problem of short standby time of the electronic badge caused by the higher power consumption in the prior art, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides an electronic badge, a control method and device thereof, a storage medium and an attendance management system.

[0006] In combination with the attached drawings, the following is a detailed description of the specific implementation of the electronic badge, the control method and device thereof, the storage medium and the attendance management system provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure. The sizes and shapes of the sections in the attached drawings do not reflect the true proportions, and merely indicate the contents of the present disclosure.

[0007] The embodiment of the present disclosure provides an electronic badge. FIG. 1 is a structural diagram of the functions of the electronic badge provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating the layout of a workplace provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG.2 is a diagram of the system containing the electronic badge and the components that cooperate with the electronic badge to realize the functions related to the electronic badge.

[0008] The system includes actuators (actuator 202a and actuator 202b as shown in the drawings). In order to accurately determine whether the electronic badge enters or leaves the workplace, at least two actuators can be set. The actuator can radiate the electromagnetic signal within a certain range, so at least two actuators can be set at a certain distance from the electronic badge and in a continuous working state, or the working time of the actuator can be set according to the actual needs. One of the implementation modes is to arrange at least two actuators 202a and 202b at a set position (for example, near an entrance 201) in workplace 200.

[0009] As shown in FIG. 1, the electronic badge includes the control module 101 and the RFID module 102.

[0010] The RFID module 102 is configured to identify an actuator in the environment, receive the identification information provided by the actuator when identifying the actuator, and send the trigger information to the control module 101.

[0011] The control module 101 is configured to obtain the identification information of the actuator after receiving the trigger information of the actuator, determine whether the electronic badge is in the preset workplace according to the identification information; and if not, control at least part of the functions of the electronic badge to enter the non-working state.

[0012] The embodiment of the present disclosure provides the electronic badge, where the control module determines whether the electronic badge is in the preset workplace according to the identification information of the actuator sent by the RFID module, and if not, controls at least part of the functions of the electronic badge to enter the non-working state, thereby reducing the power consumption of the electronic badge which is out of the workplace. Moreover, the RFID module is passive and does not need power supply. Therefore, the electronic badge has lower power consumption and a longer standby time.

[0013] In specific implementation, when there are at least two actuators in the preset workplace, the above mentioned RFID module 102 is configured to identify at least two actuators successively in the environment, receive the identification information provided by the actuators when each actuator is identified, and send the trigger information to the control module 101.

[0014] The control module 101 is configured to obtain the identification information of each actuator after receiving the trigger information of at least two actuators, determine whether the electronic badge is in the preset workplace according to the identification information; and if not, control at least part of the functions of the electronic badge to enter the non-working state.

[0015] At the same time, referring to FIG. 2, at least two actuators are set in the workplace 200. For example, in FIG. 2, two actuators, actuator 202a and actuator 202b, respectively, are set near the entrance 201 of the workplace 200, and the actuators can radiate electromagnetic signals within a certain range.

[0016] The RFID module 102 can be connected to the control module 101 through a peripheral interface and an output port, and the peripheral interface, for example, can be an Inter-Integrated Circuit (IIC) interface. The RFID module 102 generally has a coil.

[0017] When the electronic badge is in the radiation range of the actuator, the actuator and the RFID module 102 on the electronic badge can sense each other. When the actuator senses the RFID module 102, the actuator can activate the RFID module 102 and write the identification information in the RFID module 102. The identification information can include marking information that one actuator uses to distinguish from other actuators, the strength information of the electromagnetic signal, etc., so that the control module 101 can subsequently determine according to the identification information which actuator the electronic badge has approached.

[0018] The coil in the RFID module 102 is capable of converting the electromagnetic signal radiated by the actuator into energy and storing the energy, where the energy is proportional to the strength information of the electromagnetic signal. The RFID module 102 can be connected to the control module 101 through a peripheral interface and an output port. When the stored energy reaches a threshold, the RFID module 102 produces the trigger information, and activates the control module 101 through the interrupt function of the output port. After the control module 101 is activated, the control module 101 reads the identification information stored in the RFID module 102 through the peripheral interface.

[0019] Take the workplace shown in FIG. 2 as an example, when an employee with the electronic badge enters the workplace through the entrance 201 of the workplace 200, the electronic badge and the actuators perform signal interaction according to the steps shown in FIG. 3., specifically, the steps are as follows: S10. the actuator 202b sends an electromagnetic signal; S11. the RFID module of the electronic badge identifies the electromagnetic signal; S12. the actuator 202b writes the identification information to the RFID module, and the identification information is configured to distinguish the different actuators; S13. the RFID module sends the trigger information to the control module; S14. the control module reads the identification information in the RFID module; S15. the actuator 202a sends an electromagnetic signal; S16. the RFID module of the electronic badge identifies the electromagnetic signal; S17. the actuator 202a writes the identification information to the RFID module, and the identification information is configured to distinguish the different actuators; S18. the RFID module sends the trigger information to the control module; S19. the control module reads the identification information in the RFID module.

[0020] Steps S10 and S15 are in no particular order, and can be carried out at the same time for example.

[0021] The control module can determine the radiation range of which actuator the electronic badge has approached according to the identification information. Therefore, when the control module first receives the identification information of the actuator 202b and then receives the identification information of the actuator 202a, the control module can determine that the electronic badge approaches the radiation range of the actuator 202b first, then approaches the radiation range of the actuator 202a, thereby determining that the electronic badge enters the workplace. The principle of the employee leaving the workplace with the electronic badge is similar to the principle of entering the workplace, so no detailed explanation will be given here.

[0022] Generally speaking, the distance of the two actuators at the set position is short, so the time the employee with the electronic badge uses to pass by the two actuators is short. That is, the time interval for the control module of the electronic badge to receive the identification information of the two actuators is very short. Consequently, when the state of the electronic badge is determined, the time information can be taken into consideration, which can improve the accuracy of the control module to determine the state of the electronic badge. In conclusion, the control module can determine the state of the electronic badge according to the time sequence of the received identification information and time delay information. Moreover, when determining that the electronic badge is out of the workplace, the control module can control at least part of the functions of the electronic badge to enter the non-working state, thus greatly reducing the power consumption of the electronic badge. Specifically, the control module controls at least part of the functions of the electronic badge to enter the non-working state, which can be understood as that the control module turns off at least part of the functions which have power consumption of the electronic badge.

[0023] Above is the explanation by taking FIG.2 in which two actuators are set at the same set position as an example. In specific implementation, three, four or more actuators can be set at the same position, or the actuators can be set at multiple positions. The principle for the control module to determine the state of the electronic badge is similar to the above principle, so no detailed explanation will be given here.

[0024] In specific implementation, only one actuator can be set for the workplace with simple internal composition. It can be controlled as follows: switching the working state every time when the electronic badge passes by the actuator. For example, when the electronic badge passes by the actuator for the first time, the electronic badge is determined to enter the workplace, and is controlled to enter the working state. When the electronic badge passes by the actuator for the second time, the electronic badge is determined to leave the workplace, and is controlled to enter the non-working state.

[0025] In addition, the RFID module can further include a near-field identification module such as a 13.56 MHz Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) card to realize the roles as an access control card and a meal card, so that the electronic badge has good compatibility. And these functions do not depend on power, and can be implemented in the passive state, thereby increasing no power consumption of the electronic badge.

[0026] In order to communicate with the gateway and the server, and further to realize the data information interaction with the gateway and the server, the electronic badge provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1, may further include a communication module 105 electrically connected to the control module 101.

[0027] The control module 101 is configured to connect to the gateway via the communication module 105 when the electronic badge is determined to be in the preset workplace.

[0028] The control module 101 is further configured to turn off the function of the communication module 105 when the electronic badge is determined to be out of the preset workplace.

[0029] Meanwhile, according to FIG. 2, a server 205 can be set up in the workplace 200 to collect and process data information sent by each electronic badge, and send data information to each electronic badge so as to realize the unified management of each electronic badge.

[0030] In order to realize the signal interaction of the electronic badge with the server 205, the gateway 204 can be set in the workplace 200, and the electronic badge realizes the network connection with the gateway 204 through the communication module 105. In particular, the communication module 105 can be a wireless communication module, and can be connected to the control module 101 through the peripheral interface such as the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI).

[0031] After leaving the workplace, the electronic badge enters the non-working state and does not need to perform data interaction with the server when the electronic badge is out of the workplace. That is, the electronic card does not need to access the network when the electronic badge is out of the workplace. Hence, when the electronic badge is in the workplace, the control module 101 realizes network connection with the gateway 204 through the communication module 105, and the network access process of the electronic badge can be performed according to the steps as shown in FIG. 4, specifically, the steps are as follows, S21. when the control module determines that the electronic badge is in the preset workplace, the control module controls the communication module to turn on network access detection; S22. the control module controls the communication module to perform network access interaction with the gateway to complete registration and network access; and S23. if the network drops within the coverage of the gateway, the control module controls the communication module to re-access the network.

[0032] The electronic badge can be off the network due to the possibility of signal interference or other reasons, but the electronic badge can be reconnected to the network after the electronic badge is off the network so as to ensure the smooth data interaction between the control module and the server.

[0033] In specific implementation, the network coverage of the gateway can cover the actuator, and thus the electronic badge cannot be off the network immediately after leaving the workplace. The electronic badge is still able to interact with the server and be maintained within the network within the network coverage, but when the electronic badge is out of the network coverage and is off the network, the electronic badge is not able to realize network connection with the gateway. Hence, when the electronic badge is determined to be out of the preset workplace, the function of the communication module is controlled to be in the closed state, and the electronic badge no longer detects the network status and enters a non-working state with low power consumption.

[0034] In order to further reduce the power consumption of the electronic badge, when the electronic badge enters the workplace, the control module can be switched between the working state and the non-working state according to a certain period. Specifically, the electronic badge provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure further includes a timing module.

[0035] The timing module is configured to periodically send wake-up information to the control module when the electronic badge is in the preset workplace.

[0036] The control module is configured to control the communication module to stop the network maintenance information interaction with the gateway before receiving the wake-up information, and control the communication module to perform network maintenance information interaction with the gateway after being triggered by the wake-up information.

[0037] In order to further reduce the power consumption of the electronic badge, when the electronic badge is in the preset workplace, the electronic badge can be controlled not to be always in a working state. Instead, the electronic badge is switched between the working state and the non-working state according to a certain rule. That is, the control module is not always in data transmission when the control module is in the workplace, but carries out intermittent data transmission. The control module can be awakened through the timing module to perform data transmission with the gateway. For example, the timing module can send wake-up information to the control module every five seconds, and the control module completes data transmission with the gateway in one second, and is in the non-working state for the rest four seconds. This can further reduce the power consumption of the electronic badge and save power. An example is just provided herein for explanation and does not mean to limit the time of sending the wake-up information by the timing module and the time of data transmission.

[0038] The control module can turn on the communication module under the control of the wake-up information, and perform network maintenance information interaction with the gateway through the communication module. For example, a data package can be sent to perform network maintenance information interaction. If the communication module sends a data package to the gateway and receives the data package sent by the gateway within the set time, it means that the network connection between the communication module and the gateway is normal. If the communication module sends a data package to the gateway but does not receive a data package returned from the gateway for a long time, it means that the network connection between the communication module and the gateway is abnormal, and signal interference or network interruption may happen. In order to guarantee smooth data transmission between the communication module and the gateway, in specific implementation, the control module can be set to control the communication module to access the network again when the number of abnormal network connections within a certain time is detected to be high. For example, when there are three consecutive abnormal network connections within five seconds, the communication module can be controlled to access the network again, which can not only guarantee data transmission between the communication module and the gateway, but further avoid the repetitive network access under the temporary network connection exception caused by signal interference.

[0039] The network connection between the communication module and the gateway can synchronize the complete time of the control module and the server, and can further make the control module send the data information such as the position information of the electronic badge to the server. The server can analyze the moving track of the electronic badge according to the position information of the electronic badge at multiple moments in order to better grasp the working condition of the employee. In addition, the server can further send some data information to the electronic badge through the gateway. For example, the server can send the message such as "come to the conference room half an hour later" to each electronic badge, and after receiving the message, all the employees can send confirmation information back through buttons on the electronic badge, or the server can further send via the gateway to the electronic badge a message to refresh the display information of the display module.

[0040] Furthermore, the electronic badge provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure can further realize positioning detection. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the electronic badge further includes an inertial measurement module 103 electrically connected to the control module 101 and a positioning information detection module 104.

[0041] The inertial measurement module 103 is configured to determine whether the cumulative displacement of the electronic badge within the set time is greater than the preset threshold when the control module 101 determines that the electronic card is in the preset workplace, if so, control the positioning information detection module 104 to detect the positioning information broadcasted in the environment by the control module; and if not, control the positioning information detection module 104 to stop detecting the positioning information broadcasted in the environment.

[0042] The positioning information detection module 104 is configured to turn on the detection of the positioning information broadcasted in the environment or turn off the detection of the positioning information broadcasted in the environment under the control of the control module 101.

[0043] Meanwhile, referring to FIG. 2, in order to realize the positioning function of the electronic badge, a positioning signal transmitter 203 can be set in the workplace 200. The positioning signal transmitter 203 can be either an iBeacon signal transmitter or other signal transmitters, which is not defined here. The positioning signal transmitter 203 can transmit the positioning information according to a set rule. Specifically, the positioning signal transmitter 203 can send the positioning information in the form of broadcasting. FIG.2 takes a positioning signal transmitter 203 as an example. In specific implementation, in order to improve the accuracy of positioning detection, multiple positioning signal transmitters 203 can be set in the same workplace, and the positioning information detection module 104 can be used to detect the positioning information of each positioning node in order to realize positioning detection of more dimensions so as to improve the accuracy of positioning detection of the electronic badge. The number and position of the positioning signal transmitters 203 are not limited here.

[0044] After detecting the positioning information broadcasted in the environment, the positioning information detection module 104 in the electronic badge can determine the position information of the electronic badge through the control module 101 so as to realize the indoor positioning function of the electronic badge. Specifically, the positioning information detection module 104 can be connected to the control module 101 through a peripheral interface, and the peripheral interface can be a Universal Asynchronous Receiver / Transmitter (UART) or a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI).

[0045] In practice, when the employee with the electronic badge is in a certain position for a long time, the position information of the electronic badge changes little. Take the workplace 200 in FIG. 2 as an example. The workplace 200 includes a table 206, a desk 207, a sofa 208, a cabinet 209 and green plant 210. Some employees may write materials at the desk 207, may sit on a sofa 208 for rest, or several employees may have a meeting at the table 206. There is no need to detect the position information of the electronic badge all the time in these cases. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the position information of the electronic badge is detected only when the inertial measurement module 103 detects that the electronic badge has certain cumulative displacement in the set time. When the inertial measurement module 103 detects that the electronic badge has small cumulative displacement in the set time, controls the positioning information detection module 104 to stop detecting the positioning information broadcasted in the environment so as to realize the switch between the working state and the non-working state of the control module 101 and the positioning information detection module 104 to further reduce the power consumption of the electronic badge.

[0046] The above electronic badge can be positioned and detected according to the steps shown in FIG. 5, specifically, the steps are as follows: S31. when the control module determines that the electronic badge is in the preset workplace, the inertial measurement module determines whether the cumulative displacement of the electronic badge in the set time is greater than the preset threshold. If so, step S32 will be implemented, if not, step S33 will be implemented. For example, the preset threshold can be 2 meters, indicating that the positioning information detection function will not be enabled when the electronic badge moves within the range of 2 meters. If the cumulative displacement of the electronic badge is greater than 2 meters, the positioning information detection function will be enabled. Here is just an example and does not means to limit the preset threshold; S32. the inertial measurement module controls through the control module the positioning information detection module to detect the positioning information broadcasted in the environment; S33. the inertial measurement module controls through the control module the positioning information detection module to stop detecting the positioning information broadcasted in the environment; S34. the inertial measurement module resets the cumulative displacement and performs the cumulative displacement measurement again.

[0047] Since there is no need to detect the position of the electronic badge after the electronic badge leaves the preset workplace, the inertial measurement module is set to detect the cumulative displacement of the electronic badge when the inertial measurement module determines that the electronic badge is in the preset workplace. In specific implementation, the electronic badge can perform data interaction with the server in the workplace through the way of wireless network. Therefore, the inertial measurement module can be controlled to detect the cumulative displacement after the electronic badge accesses the network. Specifically, the above inertial measurement module 103 includes an acceleration sensor, a gyroscope and the like so as to realize the measurement of the cumulative displacement of the electronic badge, and in order to achieve data signal transmission, the inertial measurement module 103 can be connected to the control module 101 through the peripheral interface such as the Inter-Integrated Circuit (IIC) interface.

[0048] In practice, in the electronic badge provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the control module 101 is configured to turn off the function of at least one of the timing module, the inertial measurement module 103, and the positioning information detection module 104 when the electronic badge is determined to be out of the preset workplace so as to make the electronic badge enter the non-working state.

[0049] That is, when the electronic badge is in the non-working state, the control module at least turns off part of power consumption functions of the electronic badge so as to make the electronic badge enter the non-working state. Since the RFID module 102 is a passive device, there is no need to close the RFID module 102 when the electronic card is in the non-working state.

[0050] Specifically, the above electronic badge provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1, may further include a power module 108 electrically connected to the control module 101.

[0051] The control module 101 is configured to turn off the power module 108 when the electronic badge is out of the preset workplace.

[0052] The power module 108 may include a power supply (for example, a dry battery or a storage battery, etc.) and a power management unit. The power management unit can realize charge and discharge management of the power supply, as well as power management functions. Since the electronic badge is mainly used in the workplace, the power module 108 can be turned off after leaving the preset workplace, thus further saving the power consumption of the electronic badge.

[0053] In addition, in the above electronic badge in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the control module 101 is further configured to determine the duration of residence of the electronic badge in the preset workplace according to the time information of receiving the triggering information corresponding to the actuator.

[0054] The diagram of signal interaction between the electronic badge and the actuator as shown in FIG. 3 shows that the control module can receive the trigger information of the actuator sent by the RFID module every time when the electronic badge passes by one actuator. Therefore, the duration of residence of the electronic badge in the preset workplace can be determined according to the time information of the triggering information received by the control module. Take the workplace 200 as shown in FIG. 2 as an example, when the electronic badge enters the workplace 200, the moment when the triggering information of the actuator 202b is received is recorded as t 1 , and the moment when the triggering information of the actuator 202a is received is recorded as t 2 , when the electronic badge leaves the workplace 200, the moment when the triggering information of the actuator 202a is received is recorded as t 3 , and the moment when the triggering information of the actuator 202b is received is recorded as t 4 . The duration of residence of the electronic badge in the preset workplace refers to the difference of the moments when the electronic badge passes by the same actuator. That is, the duration of residence can be t 4 -t 1 or t 3 -t 2 , or can be calculated in other ways, which is not defined here.

[0055] The control module can be used to determine the duration of residence of the electronic badge in the workplace. If the working hours of an employee cannot meet the company's regulations, the display module can be used to prompt the employee to prevent early leaving, which is conducive to the management of the company.

[0056] In addition, the control module can further record the moments when the electronic badge enters and leaves the workplace so as to realize the function of automatic clocking in of the electronic badge. There is no need for the employee to clock in manually so as to avoid the unnecessary trouble caused when the employee forgets clocking in, which is conducive to the management of the company.

[0057] The control module can further send the time when the electronic badge enters and leaves the workplace and the duration of residence to the server. The server can conduct comprehensive work evaluation on the corresponding employee based on the information and the moving track of the electronic badge so as to fully understand the working condition of employee.

[0058] In specific implementation, the above electronic badge provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1, may further include a display module 106 electrically connected to control module 101.

[0059] The control module 101 is configured to display via the display module 106 the basic employee information or data information sent by the server.

[0060] The display module 106 electrically connected to control module 101 is set in the electronic badge, and can be used to display employee information such as head portrait, name, position and job number. In this way, the information on the electronic badge can be changed conveniently. For example, when the basic information of the employee on the electronic badge is wrong, the display information on the display module can be changed through the server without replacing the electronic badge. Moreover, the electronic badge can be used repeatedly. For example, if an employee quits, the basic information of this employee on the corresponding electronic badge can be changed to the basic information of another employee, and the display module 106 can further display the data information sent by the server. For example, the server can send notification information or assign tasks to the corresponding electronic badge of an employee, and the server can further send announcements, collective notices and other messages to each electronic badge.

[0061] Specifically, the above display module 106 can be an e-ink display panel. The e-ink display panel can maintain the display content without power supply after refreshing, and thus the power consumption is lower, which can further reduce the total power consumption of the electronic badge.

[0062] In practice, the above electronic badge provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1, may further include a button 107 electrically connected to the control module 101.

[0063] The control module 101 is configured to send notification information to the server after the button 107 is triggered to enable the server to control the electronic badge to realize the corresponding functions.

[0064] Through setting on the electronic badge the button 107 electrically connected to the control module 101, the employee can realize through the button 107 the functions such as information confirmation, display content update, and one-button alarming. For example, when the server sends to the electronic badge the message "come to the conference room half an hour later, and please reply if you receive the message", the employee can reply by triggering the button 107 after receiving the message on the electronic badge. Specifically, after the employee triggers the button 107, the button 107 can send trigger information to the control module 101. When the control module 101 detects that the button 107 is triggered, the control module 101 sends to the server the confirmation information. When the content displayed on the electronic badge needs to be updated, the employee can trigger the button 107 to send an update instruction to the server. After receiving the update instruction, the server sends the updated data to the control module 101 to control the display module 106 to refresh the display content. When the employee encounters a dangerous situation, the employee can trigger the button 107 to send an alarm signal to the server, and the server can contact the emergency contact person, police or hospital in some ways, which can be set in advance according to the actual situation. In specific implementation, the functions of the button 107 can be distinguished according to the way of triggering the button 107. For example, if the button is pressed for one time, the received information is replied; if the button is pressed twice consecutively, the display information is updated; if the button is long pressed, an alarm is given. These functions can further be differentiated by increasing the number of the button 107, and no limitation will be made here. It should be noted that the button 107 can be a physical button or a virtual button on the display module, and the type of the button 107 is not be limited here.

[0065] In addition, the timing cycle of the above timing module can be interrupted by the button 107 on the electronic badge. At any time, the control module can be awakened by the button 107 to complete the functions of information response or one-button alarming.

[0066] Based on the same inventive concept, the embodiment of the present disclosure further provides an attendance management system. Since the attendance management system solves the problem in a way similar to the aforementioned electronic badge, the implementation of the attendance management system can refer to the implementation of the above electronic badge, and the repetition will not be repeated herein.
