Technical solutions in the embodiments of the disclosure aim at solving the above technical problem, and the general idea is illustrated as follows.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, N sensed parameters are detected by N sensing units in M sensing units, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to M; an object corresponding to the N sensed parameters is determined; the N sensed parameters and the object are recorded; and a display parameter for a display object displayed on the display unit is adjusted according to the N sensed parameters and the object that are recorded.

Therefore, the electronic device in the embodiment can learn and provide service and self-optimization according to the learning, bringing higher intelligence.
To better understand the above technical solution, in the following, the above technical solution will be illustrated in detail in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments.
An embodiment of the disclosure provides an information processing method applicable in an electronic device. The electronic device includes a display unit and M sensing units, and an operating system and K applications based on the operating system are installed on the electronic device, where M and K are positive integers. The M sensing units may be a touch screen, a gyroscope, a distance sensor, a light sensor, an accelerometer, a Global Positioning System (GPS) unit, a General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) unit, a receiver, a Near Field Communication (NFC) unit, a camera and the like.
Referring to
step 101: detecting N sensed parameters by N sensing units in the M sensing units, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to M;
step 102: determining an object corresponding to the N sensed parameters;
step 103: recording the N sensed parameters and the object; and
step 104: adjusting a display parameter for a display object displayed on the display unit according to the N sensed parameters and object that are recorded.
In step 101, the N sensed parameters are detected by N sensing units in the M sensing units. For example, location information of the electronic device is acquired by a GPS unit; the movement is determined by an accelerometer, in which information, such as riding in a car and even the type of the car, may be acquired; the software running on the electronic device is detected by a GPRS unit; an operating trajectory of the user on the electronic device is detected by a touch screen; or environmental information is acquired by a light sensor.
Next, step 102 is performed, in which an object corresponding to the N sensed parameters is determined. For example, in the case that in step 101 the location information of the electronic device is acquired by utilizing the GPS unit, time information in connection with this location, such as the time on the electronic device, is acquired, and the operating trajectory of the user on the electronic device is acquired by the touch screen, then an object corresponding to these sensed information is determined according to these sensed information. For example, it is determined according to the location information that the electronic device is on a moving car; it may be also determined, according to the time information, that the electronic device is on the moving car during this time period; and it is determined according to the operating trajectory that the user has been playing a game. Finally, it is determined that the electronic device runs a game during a time period while being on a car, and then the game is determined as the object. A practice scenario is that, for example, the user goes home by subway between 6:00 to 7:00 PM, and plays a game named “Love Elimination Everyday” on the subway.
For another example, it is detected by the GPRS unit that a ticket for the movie
“Iron Man” is booked through an application “Douban Movie”, it is detected by the time sensing unit that the time is 10:00 AM, and it is detected by the GPRS unit that the electronic device stays at a shopping mall with a cinema for two hours, then it may be determined according to the sensed information that the user sees the movie “Iron Man” at 2:00 PM in the shopping mall, and the activity of seeing a movie is determined as the object.
For another example, between 3:00 to 4:00 PM, it is detected by a gyroscope and an accelerometer that the electronic device remains in a bumpy state, and it is detected by the GPS unit or the GPRS unit that the electronic device moves on a road at a driving speed and stops every distance, then it may be inferred according to the sensed information that the user takes a bus between 3:00 to 4:00 PM, and an activity of taking a bus is determined as the object.
For another example, it is detected by the GPRS unit that the electronic device accesses a news website or a reading website, and it may be detected by the touch screen unit that the electronic device opens a reading software, then it may be determined according to the sensed information that the user likes reading, and books and news may be determined as the object.
For another example, it is detected by the GPRS unit and the touch screen that the electronic device often searches for recipes on the Internet or opens recipes stored on the electronic device, then it may be determined according to the sensed information that the user likes cooking, and a recipe may be determined as the object.
The above description is only illustrative, and in practical applications, the sensed information may also be other information; accordingly, the determined object may also be other objects. In a word, usage information of the electronic device is detected by various sensing units, and an object corresponding to the usage information is determined, for monitoring the behavior of the electronic device and the behavior of the user, to further figure out the habits and requirements of the user.
After the object corresponding to these sensed parameters is determined in step 102, step 103 is performed, in which the N sensed parameters and the object are recorded. The record may be in the form of a table or the like, which is not limited here. In the following, the record in a form of a table is set forth as an example, which can be seen in Table 1.
In practical applications, it is assumed that Table 1 is blank when the electronic device leaves the factory. Once the electronic device starts to be used, steps 102 and 103 are performed each time some sensed parameters are detected, to record an object and the sensed parameters corresponding to the object in Table 1. As the usage of the electronic device, the records in Table 1 become more and more.
Next, step 104 is performed, in which a display parameter for a display object displayed on the display unit is adjusted according to the N sensed parameters and object that are recorded. Step 104 may include: adjusting the shape, the color or a prompt message of the display object according to the N sensed parameters and object that are recorded, and accordingly, the display parameter includes the shape, the color or the prompt message. In the following, examples are taken to illustrate the above cases respectively.
It is assumed that the display object is in the form of a baby animal or a human baby when the electronic device leaves the factory. As the user uses the electronic device, the baby animal or the human baby grows up, and the direction of growth is related to the usage of the electronic device. Electronic devices may correspond to different users, therefore, even though the display parameters of the display object are the same when the electronic devices leave the factory, the display object on each electronic device may vary gradually, and the variation of the display object may reflect the user habits in using the electronic device and the user preferences.
First, an embodiment of adjusting the shape of the display object is described.
Referring to
For another example, assuming that the object and sensed parameters that are recorded reflect that the user often uses various software to search for restaurants or coupons of restaurants, the appearance of the display object becomes fat. Referring to
For another example, assuming that the object and sensed parameters that are recorded reflect that the user often uses software to search for recipes or often browses recipes, the appearance of the display object becomes a cooker. As show in
Obviously, each of the display object 20 in
In practical applications, the display object may have other images. For example, in a case where the user spends more time in playing game(s), the image of the display object may be changed into a game master, such as an image posturing as in a game; further, in a case where the user often cleans the electronic device, the image of the display object may be adjusted into a clean master, such as an image that wears a clean overalls and takes a broom in hand.
Next, an embodiment of adjusting the color of the display object is described.
In this embodiment, for example, from the object and sensed parameters that are recorded, it is found that the occasions or the total time that the user plays game(s) takes first place, then the display object appears with red eyes, reflecting that the user spends too much time in playing game(s).
For another example, the color of a belt worn on the display object is adjusted according to the object and sensed parameters that are recorded. For example, the color of the belt is originally white, and in a case where it is found from increasing amount of recorded contents that the user spends more and more time in playing game(s), the color of the belt is gradually changed from white to yellow and then to black; and in a case where the amount of records further increases, the appearance of the display object may be adjusted, such as from a student into a warrior, and then the color of the belt is adjusted.
Next, an embodiment of adjusting the prompt message of the display object is described.
Referring to
Referring to
The above description is only illustrative, and in practical applications, the shape, the color and the prompt message may be adjusted at the same time, or any two of the shape, the color and the prompt message may be adjusted at the same time. Of course, the display parameter may also be other parameters, such as the type. For example, the image of the display object is adjusted from a small animal into a person.
As can be known from the above description, in the embodiment, an operation of the user on the electronic device, or the environment around the electronic device, or any state change about the electronic device is sensed by the sensing units; then an object corresponding to these sensed parameters is determined, i.e., it is determined which object, for example, an application, is related to these sensed parameters; then the object and the related sensed parameters are recorded, whereby the electronic device learns autonomously; and then the electronic device adjusts a display parameter for a display object displayed on the display unit according to the recorded contents, i.e., the electronic device adjusts the display object on the electronic device according to the contents learned by the electronic device, thereby optimizing the electronic device and improving the service for the user. Therefore, the electronic device in the embodiment can learn and provide service and self-optimization according to the learning, bringing higher intelligence.
Furthermore, it also can be seen from the above description that, the significance of the variation of the display parameter increases as the recorded contents increase. For example, the image in
In a further embodiment, in addition to changing with the recorded contents, the display object may be further used in the interaction between the user and the electronic device, and/or, the display object may be used to interact with the object, in which the object is a system parameter of the electronic device and/or the K applications.
For the case that the display object is used in the interaction between the user and the electronic device, there may be an active solution and a passive solution. For the passive solution, the user acquires information of an application or a system parameter on the electronic device by operating the display object. For the active solution, the display object provides an operation interface, and the user operates the application or the system parameter on the electronic device by operating the operation interface.
As for the passive solution, a specific example will be illustrated below. Referring to
As for the active solution, a specific example will also be illustrated below. Referring to
For the case that the display object may be used to interact with the object, there may also be an active solution and a passive solution. For the passive solution, the display object gives a prompt, and only if the user inputs an operation according to the prompt, the display object interacts with the object. For the active solution, the display object interacts with the object directly without participation of the user.
As for the passive solution, a specific example will be illustrated below. Referring to
As for the active solution, a specific example will also be illustrated below. For example, in a case where the display object finds that the memory of the electronic device is full according to the previously recorded content, the display object may directly trigger an operation of cleaning the memory. Further, before and after the cleaning, a voice or text prompt may be used to prompt the user of the operation being performed currently by the display object, but it is not required for the user to participate.
For another example, in a case where the display object finds that the user has a date at 9:00 tomorrow morning according to the recorded content, the display object actively interact with the alarm clock application to complete an operation of setting an alarm clock, for example the alarm clock is set at 8:00 tomorrow morning. After the operation is completed, a voice prompt may be provided to the user, such as “I have set an alarm clock at 8:00 tomorrow morning to wake you up”.
The function of the display object to be involved in an interaction is described above in connection with embodiments illustrating different parties in the interaction. In the following, the function of the display object to be involved in an interaction will be described in connection with embodiments illustrating different modes for the interaction.
For a first interaction mode, after step 104, the method further includes: judging whether the electronic device satisfies a preset condition; and in a case where the electronic device satisfies the preset condition, executing a first operating instruction for the object.
Assuming that the object is the reading software in Table 1, the preset condition is related to the previously recorded content. For example, it is indicated by the record that the user opens the reading software between 10:00 to 12:00 AM everyday, then the preset condition is that the time reaches 10:00 AM; and in a case where it is indicated by the record that the user opens the reading software when taking a bus, the preset condition is that the electronic device is located on a bus. Therefore, accordingly, the judgment of whether the electronic device satisfies the preset condition is a judgment of whether the time reaches 10 o'clock or whether the electronic device is located on a bus; and in a case where the preset condition is satisfied, a first operating instruction is executed for the object.
Executing the first operating instruction includes, for example, displaying a start interface of the reading software, and prompting the user whether to open the reading software; or opening the reading software directly; or opening the reading software and loading the previously read content.
For a second interaction mode, after step 104, the method further includes: receiving an input operation via the display object; and executing a second operating instruction for the object based on the input operation.
Assuming that the object is the reading software in Table 1, in a case where the user touches the display object with a finger, the electronic device receives the input operation via the display object, and then executes a second operating instruction for the object based on the input operation.
Executing the second operating instruction includes: for example, displaying a start interface of the reading software, and prompting the user whether to open the reading software; or opening the reading software directly; or opening the reading software and loading the previously read content. Alternatively, login interfaces of all previously recorded reading software may be displayed around the display object, and the user may select one application interface to enter as required.
Therefore, in the embodiment, according to the recorded content, an operating instruction may be directly executed for the object via the display object, further improving the intelligence of the electronic device.
Obviously, as the recorded content increases, the interaction accuracy of the display object becomes higher. That is because data recorded for one month has higher reliability than data recorded for three days. For example, in the first three days for the recording, the user plays a game A for three times, and plays a game B twice; however, as the recording continues for one month, it is found that the times the user plays the game A is much less than the times the user plays the game B. Therefore, in a case where the interaction is performed after one month, the display object opens the game B rather than the game A, and the interaction accuracy is improved accordingly.
Based on the same inventive concept, an embodiment of the invention further provides an electronic device on which an operating system and K applications based on the operating system are installed, K and M being positive integers. As shown in
In an embodiment, the display object is adapted for an interaction between a user and the electronic device; and/or the display object is adapted to interact with the object, where the object may be a system parameter of the electronic device and/or the K applications.
Further, a significance of an adjustment of the display parameter and an accuracy of the interaction for the display object increase with an increasing amount of the N sensed parameters and the object that are recorded.
In an embodiment, the processing unit 203 is adapted to adjust the shape, the color or a prompt message of the display object according to the N sensed parameters and object that are recorded, in which case the display parameter includes the shape, the color or the prompt message.
In an embodiment, the processing unit 203 is further adapted to: judge whether the electronic device satisfies a preset condition; and in a case where the electronic device satisfies the preset condition, execute a first operating instruction for the object.
In another embodiment, the processing unit 203 is further adapted to: receive an input operation via the display object; and execute a second operating instruction for the object based on the input operation.
In the above embodiments, the M sensing units 202 may include a touch screen, a gyroscope, a distance sensor, a light sensor, an accelerometer, a GPS unit, a GPRS unit, a receiver, a NFC unit, a camera and the like.
The electronic device may further include other elements, such as a memory for storing data needed for the processing unit 203, or a user interface for connecting an external device, such as an earphone and a sound box.

In an embodiment of the disclosure, N sensed parameters are detected by N sensing units in M sensing units, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to M; an object corresponding to the N sensed parameters is determined; the N sensed parameters and the object are recorded; and a display parameter for a display object displayed on the display unit is adjusted according to the N sensed parameters and object that are recorded. That is, in the embodiment, an operation of a user on the electronic device, or the environment around the electronic device, or any state change about the electronic device is sensed by the sensing units; then an object corresponding to these sensed parameters is determined, i.e., it is determined which object, for example, an application, is related to these sensed parameters; then the object and the related sensed parameters are recorded, whereby the electronic device learns autonomously; and then the electronic device adjusts a display parameter for a display object displayed on the display unit according to the recorded contents, i.e., the electronic device adjusts the display object on the electronic device according to the contents learned by the electronic device, thereby optimizing the electronic device and improving the service for the user. Therefore, the electronic device in the embodiment can learn and provide service and self-optimization according to the learning, bringing higher intelligence.
Furthermore, in an embodiment of the disclosure, the display object is adapted for the interaction between the user and the electronic device, or the display object is adapted to interact with the object, where the object may be a system parameter of the electronic device or an application based on the operating system.

For example, the display object may interact with an application on the electronic device according to the recorded content, such as open the application; or the display object may provide a prompt message by utilizing the recorded content, for the usage in the interaction between the user and the electronic device.
Furthermore, in an embodiment of the disclosure, an input operation is received via the display object; and a second operating instruction is executed for the object based on the input operation. For example, in a case where the user clicks on the display object, the object is started directly, or the user is prompted of the state of the object, or a login interface of the object is displayed. Therefore, based on the recorded content, an operating instruction may be directly executed for the object via the display object, further improving the intelligence of the electronic device.
