TECHNICAL FIELD
The present disclosure is related to the field of communication technology, and more particularly, to a play control method, apparatus and terminal.
BACKGROUND
With rapid development of science and technology of electronics and internet technology, play devices are more and more widely used in people's daily life, such as computers, tablet computers, televisions, mobile phones, personal stereos, hand-held readers and the like. Take televisions as an example, when TV programs are played on TVs, in the related arts, only when receiving control commands triggered by triggering operations by users, will TVs execute control response, such as switching TV programs, pause playing, reducing sound volume etc. When users do not perform triggering operations, it is hard for play devices such as TVs to effectively respond to user's play needs. As a result, the user experience is poor and the intelligence level of play devices is low.

As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 1 is a flow chart showing a play control method according to an exemplary embodiment of this disclosure. The method may be used in a terminal and comprises steps 101-102 as below:
Step 101: acquiring brain wave information of a target user; and
Step 102: executing play control corresponding with the brain wave information.
When this embodiment of this disclosure is applied, by acquiring brain wave information of a target user and executing play control corresponding with the brain wave information, the state of the target user can be reflected through the brain wave information; accordingly, effective control of the user's needs can be realized through the brain wave information without any triggering operation by the user, thereby enhancing the user experience and improving the intelligence level of play devices.
The embodiments of this disclosure may be executed by a play device used for playing at least one type of information including characters, graphics, images, audio, video, animation and the like. The play device includes computers, tablet computers, televisions, mobile phones, personal stereos, hand-held readers and the like. The embodiments of this disclosure may be executed by a control device that executes play control to the play device. The play device may have a play control function or both a play control function and a brain wave information detection function. The control device may have a brain wave information detection function.
Regarding step 101, the brain wave information may include at least one brain wave parameter from the frequency, the amplitude and the waveform of the brain wave, or may include the type identification of various brain wave types divided based on the parameters, such as the frequency, the amplitude and the waveform of the brain wave. The target user may be a person contacting a play device, a control device or a brain wave detection device. In other optional solutions, the target user may be other objects having brain waves and contacting a play device, a control device or a brain wave collection device, or may be other objects having brain waves and spaced from the play device, the control device or the brain wave collection device a preset distance.
In the embodiments of this disclosure, acquiring the brain wave information of the target user may comprise detecting the brain wave information of the target user using an in-built brain wave sensor. The brain wave sensor is built in the executing device of the embodiments of this disclosure. The detected brain wave information may be brain wave parameters such as the frequency, the amplitude and the waveform of the brain wave, or the type identification of various brain wave types divided based on the brain wave information parameters, such as the frequency, the amplitude and the waveform of the brain wave.
In the embodiments of this disclosure, acquiring the brain wave information of the target user may comprise receiving the brain wave information of the target user transmitted by a brain wave detector. The brain wave detector and the executing device are separately provided in the embodiments of this disclosure. The transmitted brain wave information may be brain wave parameters such as the frequency, the amplitude and the waveform of the brain wave, or the type identification of various brain wave types divided based on the brain wave information parameters, such as the frequency, the amplitude and the waveform of the brain wave.
Before acquiring the brain wave information of the target user, detection may be performed to determine whether the object contacting the target device is the target user. When the object is the target user, the brain wave information of the target user is acquired. The target device may be the play device or the control device that executes the embodiments of this disclosure, a sleep device for playing sleep music, a remote control pillow or mattress or hat having a control function. The target device may be separately provided from the play device or the control device that executes the embodiments of this disclosure, and may be a preset device contacted by the user, such as a mattress, a pillow, a headrest or a hat. The target device may be the brain wave detector separately provided from the executing device of the embodiments of this disclosure.
In the embodiments of this disclosure, detecting whether the object contacting a target device is the target user comprises: determining if at least one parameter of the contact parameters representing the contact of the object and the target device meets a corresponding preset condition; and determining that the object contacting the target device is the target user if at least one parameter of the contact parameters meets the corresponding preset condition.
Determining whether at least one parameter of the contact parameters representing the contact of the object and the target device meets the corresponding preset condition comprises one or more the following modes:
Mode 1: if the contact parameter comprises a shape, and the shape of the object detected by an in-built area sensor matches with a preset shape, determining that the detected shape meets the corresponding preset condition.
The area sensor may be built in the play device or the control device that executes the embodiments of this disclosure, or in the target device independent from the play device or the control device, or in other preset device. For example, the area sensor may be built in a mattress. The target device may be a pillow. An area of the object contacting the mattress may be acquired through the area sensor. The shape of the object may be acquired through the area. If the shape matches that of a human, it is determined that the detected shape meets the corresponding preset condition, and that the object contacting the target device is a human.
Mode 2: if the contact parameter comprises a temperature, and the temperature of the object detected by an in-built temperature sensor matches with a preset temperature, determining that the detected temperature meets the corresponding preset condition.
The temperature sensor may be built in the play device or the control device that executes the embodiments of this disclosure, or in the target device independent from the play device or the control device, or in other preset device. For example, the temperature sensor may be built in a mattress. The target device may be a pillow. If the temperature acquired by the temperature sensor falls into the scope of a human's body temperature, it is determined that the detected temperature meets the corresponding preset condition, and that the object contacting the target device is a human.
Mode 3: if the contact parameter comprises a pressure and an area, and a ratio of the pressure of the object detected by an in-built pressure sensor to the area of the object detected by an in-built area sensor matches with a preset density, determining that the detected pressure and area meet the corresponding preset condition.
The area sensor and the pressure sensor may be built in the play device or the control device that executes the embodiments of this disclosure, or in the target device independent from the play device or the control device, or in other preset device.
Detecting the brain wave information of the target user using an in-built brain wave sensor may comprise: determining a contact position where the target user contacts the target device; and detecting the brain wave information of the target user using an in-built brain wave sensor closest to the contact position. The contact position can be determined by a pressure-sensitive sensor built in the target device. Brain wave information can be detected more accurately by the brain wave sensor closest to the contact position, so that the accuracy and effectiveness of play control can be improved.
Regarding step 102, corresponding relations between various brain wave information and various play control can be preset, and play control corresponding with the brain wave information can be performed based on the preset corresponding relations. The play control may include ordinary control of characters, graphics, images, audio, video, animation and the like played by a play device, such as continuing, switching, pausing, reducing the sound volume and the like. The corresponding relations between various brain wave information and various play control may include corresponding relations between at least one brain wave parameter from the frequency, the amplitude, the waveform, the type identification and the like and various play control.
Brain waves may be divided into four types: a δ wave, a θ wave, an α wave and a β wave. The corresponding brain wave information may include at least one of the type identification of a δ wave, the type identification of a θ wave, the type identification of an α wave and the type identification of a β wave.
An α wave may appear when a healthy adult is calm or feels happy. Its frequency range is 8-13 Hz and its amplitude range is 20-100 μV. It is mainly distributed in the parietal occipital region, and is usually in the shape of a sine wave. It also changes depending on the brain development level or the age. The number of α waves of children gradually increases as their brains mature, and the frequency of the α wave also increases until it becomes steady in the adulthood. The frequency of the α wave slows down in old age.
A β wave may appear when a nervous or exciting feeling appears. Its frequency range is 14-30 Hz and its amplitude range is 5-20 μV. It may be distributed across the whole brain, and is mainly distributed in the anterior hemisphere and the temporal region. It is related with gender, psychological state, personal character and age. A β wave appears more often in women than men, and more often in old people than adults. When humans have unstable mood, are applied with tranquilizers or hypnotics, β waves will increase and their amplitude will also increase.
A θ wave appears more often when a human is tired or has fallen asleep. Its frequency range is 4-7 Hz and its amplitude range is 100-150 μV. It is a main component of an electroencephalogram of young people aged between 10 and 17. It is mainly distributed in the upper apex and the temporal region. Its number gradually decreases, its frequency gradually increases and its amplitude gradually decreases from children to adults. Few θ waves will appear in the electroencephalogram of an adult. When an adult feels depressed, disappointed or frustrated, about 20 seconds of θ waves may appear. A θ wave is common for old people and sick people.
A δ wave may appear when an adult is totally exhausted or sleepy or has severe encephalosis or when a child is immature in intelligence. Its frequency range is 1-3 Hz and its amplitude range is 20-200 μV. A δ wave may appear in the brain record of an animal that has gone through a subcortical transection surgery. A δ wave can only appear in the cortex, and is not controlled by the nerves of lower parts of the brain.
In addition, there may be normal brain waves having special waveforms, such as hump waves, σ rhythm waves, λ waves, k-complex waves, μ rhythm waves and the like.
A μ rhythm wave is a comb rhythm having a frequency of 8-12 Hz. It may be distributed in the central region. When μ a rhythm waves appear in the central regions of the both sides, they may be asynchronous and asymmetrical. When eyes are open, μ rhythm waves do not disappear. When a fist is made at the opposite side or metal activities are suppressed due to stimulus of feelings, μ rhythm waves may disappear temporarily; this case may occur to a healthy human, a human having a nerve illness or brain trauma etc., but the implications are unclear.
A vertex sharp transient wave or a hump wave is a negative vertex sharp wave simultaneously appearing in the apex and central regions in a preliminary stage of light sleep, with the apex region more prominent. Its frequency range is 3-5 Hz and its amplitude range is 100-300 μV. When a pair of hump waves appear, they are also called “Double Hump Waves”.
A sleep spindle wave is also called a σ rhythm wave. The frequency range of a σ rhythm wave of an adult may be 12-14 Hz, and the frequency range of a σ rhythm wave of a child may be 10-12 Hz. It is mainly distributed in the apex/central region. For children, σ rhythm waves may be asynchronous for the left and right sides. For people aged 60 or older, σ rhythm waves remarkably reduce or disappear. A σ rhythm wave is a main indicator of brain wave in the light sleep period.
A K-complex wave is a complex wave composed of a vertex sharp transient wave and a σ rhythm wave. It may appear automatically in the light sleep period or due to triggering of external feeling stimulus, in particular sound stimulus. Usually, it appears symmetrically on both sides. A σ rhythm wave is an awakening reaction in normal sleep.
As known from the above brain waves, in the embodiments of this disclosure, acquiring the brain wave information of the target user may comprise: acquiring at least one brain wave parameter of the frequency, the amplitude and the waveform from the target user; and determining the brain wave type corresponding with the acquired brain wave parameter as the brain wave information of the target user. The brain wave information of the target user can be acquired quickly and accurately through the parameters such as a frequency, an amplitude and a waveform, thereby improving the play control efficiency.
Determining the brain wave type corresponding with the acquired brain wave parameter as the brain wave information of the target user may comprise: retrieving the brain wave type corresponding with the acquired brain wave parameter from a first preset relationship table which records corresponding relationships between different brain wave parameters and brain wave types.
In the embodiments of this disclosure, acquiring the brain wave information of the target user may comprise: acquiring at least one brain wave parameter of the frequency, the amplitude and the waveform from the target user; acquiring at least one physiological parameter of the age, the gender and the health state from the target user; and determining the brain wave type corresponding with the acquired brain wave parameter and the acquired physiological parameter as the brain wave information of the target user. The brain wave information of the target user can be acquired quickly and accurately through the parameters such as a frequency, an amplitude, a waveform, an age, gender and health state, thereby improving the play control efficiency.
Determining a brain wave type corresponding with an acquired brain wave parameter and an acquired physiological parameter as the brain wave information of the target user may comprise: retrieving a brain wave type corresponding with the acquired brain wave parameter and the acquired physiological parameter from a second preset relationship table which records corresponding relationships among different brain wave parameters, physiological parameters and brain wave types.
For example, image information of the target user may be acquired by a camera. Gender and age of the target user may be acquired by processing the acquired image information. Medical record corresponding with the image information of the target user may be acquired from a medical record server. The health state of the target user may be acquired by performing information extraction to the medical record.
The play control corresponding with the brain wave information executed in the embodiments of this disclosure is directed to the brain activities of the user, and can effectively reflect the implementation needs of the user. Effective control of the user's needs can be realized through the brain wave information without any triggering operation by the user, thereby enhancing the user experience and improving the intelligence level of play devices.
As shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 2 is a flow chart showing a play control method according to another exemplary embodiment of this disclosure. The method comprises steps 201-205:
Step 201: acquiring the brain wave information of the target user;
Step 202: if the brain wave information is the type identification of a β wave or an α wave, continuing playing preset data;
Step 203: if the brain wave information is the type identification of a δ wave, stopping playing the preset data;
Step 204: if the brain wave information is the type identification of any of a θ wave, a hump wave, a K-complex wave and a sleep spindle wave, outputting prompt information for changing the preset data; or
Step 205: if the brain wave information is the type identification of any of a θ wave, a hump wave, a K-complex wave and a sleep spindle wave, reducing the play sound volume of the preset data.
In the embodiments of this disclosure, by executing different play control for different types of brain waves, this disclosure can improve the flexibility of play control.
The preset data may be at least one of characters, graphics, images, audio, video, animation and the like. For example, the preset data may be audio and video data corresponding with movie and TV programs. The type identification may be a frequency range, an amplitude range, a waveform name or a wave name of various brain waves.
In the embodiments of this disclosure, outputting prompt information for changing the preset data may be performed by the following one or more modes:
Mode 1: playing a voice prompt for changing the preset data, wherein the voice prompt may include voice identification of the data to be played;
Mode 2: popping an information block including other preset data; and
Mode 3: top displaying a play menu including various play data.
In other embodiments of this disclosure, play control different from that of the embodiments of this disclosure may be performed according to different types of brain waves. For example, when the brain wave is a δ wave, a clock alarm may be played to prompt the user; when the brain wave is any of a θ wave, a hump wave, a K-complex wave and a sleep spindle wave, play of the preset data is stopped and sleep music is played.
As shown in FIG. 3, FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing a play control method according to another exemplary embodiment of this disclosure. The method comprises steps 301-303:
Step 301: acquiring the brain wave information of the target user;
Step 302: generating a control command corresponding with the brain wave information; and
Step 303: sending the control command to an associated play device to trigger the play device to execute play response corresponding with the brain wave information.
In the embodiments of this disclosure, by generating a control command corresponding with the brain wave information and sending the control command to an associated play device to trigger the play device to execute play response corresponding with the brain wave information, this disclosure can execute play control for different play devices.
The associated play device may be a preset device to be controlled, or for example, a play device within a preset distance relative to the target user or the control device of the embodiments of this disclosure.
If the brain wave information is the type identification of a δ wave, the control command is configured to stop playing preset data.
If the brain wave information is the type identification of any of a θ wave, a hump wave, a K-complex wave and a sleep spindle wave, the control command is configured to output prompt information for changing the preset data; or
if the brain wave information is the type identification of any of a θ wave, a hump wave, a K-complex wave and a sleep spindle wave, the control command is configured to reduce the play sound volume of the preset data.
In other embodiments of this disclosure, control commands corresponding with the brain wave information and different from that in the embodiments of this disclosure may be generated. For example, if the brain wave information is the type identification of a δ wave, the control command is configured to play a clock alarm; if the brain wave information is the type identification of any of a θ wave, a hump wave, a K-complex wave and a sleep spindle wave, the control command is configured to stop playing the preset data and play sleep music.
