Abstract
A user device is provided to estimate an activity state in a home network. A user device may include a memory configured to store instructions and a processor configured to execute the stored instructions. The processor is configured to obtain context information and control information of at least one external electronic device from the at least one external electronic device; estimate a first activity state of a user using the context information and the control information; and transmit the first activity state to the at least one external electronic device.
Claims14
A user device comprising:
- a memory configured to store instructions;
- and
- a processor configured to execute the stored instructions to:
- obtain context information and control information of at least one external electronic device from the at least one external electronic device, and obtain, from another external electronic device, information on a function executed in the another external electronic device, the control information indicating a state of the at least one external electronic device;
- estimate a first activity state of a user using the context information and the control information;
- estimate preference information using the function executed in the another external electronic device;
- and
- transmit the first activity state and the preference information to the at least one external electronic device.
A control method of a user device, the control method comprising:
- obtaining context information and control information of at least one external electronic device from the at least one external electronic device, and obtaining, from another external electronic device, information on a function executed in the another external electronic device, the control information indicating a state of the at least one external electronic device;
- estimating a first activity state of a user using the context information and the control information;
- estimating preference information using the function executed in the another external electronic device;
- and
- transmitting the first activity state and the preference information to the at least one external electronic device.
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing executable instructions, the executable instructions capable of causing a processor to:
- obtain context information and control information of at least one external electronic device from the at least one external electronic device, and obtain, from another external electronic device, information on a function executed in the another external electronic device, the control information indicating a state of the at least one external electronic device;
- estimate a first activity state of a user using the context information and the control information;
- estimate preference information using the function executed in the another external electronic device;
- and
- transmit the first activity state and the preference information to the at least one external electronic device.
