Abstract
There is provided a smart detection system including multiple sensors and a central server. The central server confirms a model of every sensor and a position thereof in an operation area. The central server confirms an event position and predicts a user action according to event signals sent by the multiple sensors.
Claims21
A sensor registering method applied in a robot, the robot operating in an operation area, the sensor registering method comprising:
- detecting, by the robot, existence of a first sensor by a first indicating signal, wherein the first indicating signal contains first identification information of the first sensor;
- recognizing a first position of the first sensor in the operation area when the robot detects the first indicating signal;
- and
- registering the first sensor according to the first identification information and the first position of the first sensor in the operation area.
1 more element
An event identifying method, comprising:
- previously recording a first position of a first sensor and a second position of a second sensor in an operation area;
- receiving, by a central server, a first event signal from the first sensor and a second event signal from the second sensor, wherein the first event signal and the second event signal are triggered by a same event;
- and
- comparing the first event signal and the second event signal to identify a position of said same event in the operation area.
1 more element
An event identifying method, comprising:
- receiving, by a central server, a first event signal from a first sensor and a second event signal from a second sensor;
- and
- identifying, by the central server, a specific event when a sequence of receiving the first event signal and the second event signal matches a predetermined operation pattern.
A system, comprising:
- a first sensor, located at a first position and configured to provide an indicating signal and a detected signal, wherein the indicating signal contains first identification information of the first sensor, and the detected signal contains at least one of a temperature signal, a sound signal, a light signal, a motion signal of an object, a pressure signal, an acceleration signal of an object or a biomedical signal;
- and
- a robot, configured to detect the indicating signal by a sensor thereof, recognize the first position of the first sensor and receive the detected signal, wherein the first sensor is not physically connected with the robot.
