Abstract
A method provides an exhibition guide using an electronic device. The method obtains exhibit information of a plurality of exhibits in a preselected exhibition from a remote computer, obtains location coordinates of the electronic device, calculates a distance between each exhibit and the electronic device, and determines one or more exhibits which are adjacent to the electronic device. The method further obtains an indicating direction of the electronic device, compares the indicating direction of the electronic device with a display direction of each adjacent exhibit to obtain a matched exhibit, and plays commentary of the matched exhibit on the electronic device.
Claims19
A method for providing an exhibition guide using an electronic device, the method comprising:
- obtaining exhibit information of a plurality of exhibits in a preselected exhibition from a storage device of the electronic device;
- obtaining location coordinates of the electronic device detected by a global position system (GPS) of the electronic device, and calculating a distance between each exhibit and the electronic device according to the location coordinates of the electronic device and preset location coordinates of each exhibit;
- determining one or more adjacent exhibits of the electronic device, wherein a distance between each of the adjacent exhibits and the electronic device is less than or equal to a preset value;
- obtaining an indicating direction of the electronic device detected by an electronic compass chip of the electronic device;
- comparing the indicating direction of the electronic device with a display direction of each adjacent exhibit to obtain a matched exhibit;
- and
- obtaining commentary of the matched exhibit from the storage device, and playing the commentary on a display screen of the electronic device.
An electronic device, comprising:
- a display screen;
- a storage device;
- an electronic compass chip;
- at least one processor;
- and
- one or more modules that are stored in the storage device and are executed by the at least one processor, the one or more modules comprising instructions:
- to obtain exhibit information of a plurality of exhibits in a preselected exhibition from the storage device;
- to obtain location coordinates of the electronic device detected by a global position system (GPS) of the electronic device, and calculate a distance between each exhibit and the electronic device according to the location coordinates of the electronic device and preset location coordinates of each exhibit;
- to determine one or more adjacent exhibits of the electronic device, wherein a distance between each of the adjacent exhibits and the electronic device is less than or equal to a preset value;
- to obtain an indicating direction of the electronic device detected by the electronic compass chip;
- to compare the indicating direction of the electronic device with a display direction of each adjacent exhibit to obtain a matched exhibit;
- and
- to obtain commentary of the matched exhibit from the storage device, and play the commentary on the display screen.
A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions that, when executed by a processor of an electronic device, causes the electronic device to perform a method for providing an exhibition guide, the method comprising:
- obtaining exhibit information of a plurality of exhibits in a preselected exhibition from a storage device of the electronic device;
- obtaining location coordinates of the electronic device detected by a global position system (GPS) of the electronic device, and calculating a distance between each exhibit and the electronic device according to the location coordinates of the electronic device and preset location coordinates of each exhibit;
- determining one or more adjacent exhibits of the electronic device, wherein a distance between each of the adjacent exhibits and the electronic device is less than or equal to a preset value;
- obtaining an indicating direction of the electronic device detected by an electronic compass chip of the electronic device;
- comparing the indicating direction of the electronic device with a display direction of each adjacent exhibit to obtain a matched exhibit;
- and
- obtaining commentary of the matched exhibit from the storage device, and playing the commentary on a display screen of the electronic device.
