example 1

[0048] Assume that the user has an air conditioner AC-1 with a model of X; the user wants to use an air conditioner control APP to control the air conditioner AC-1, and the model of the air conditioner matched by the APP is Y n (The subscript n indicates that the APP is compatible with multiple models of air conditioners). Assuming type X and Y n The main functions of the type air conditioner are shown in Table 1, "√" indicates that the function is supported, and "X" indicates that the function is not supported.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for controlling heterogeneous home household electric appliances, a cloud platform and a home gateway. The method includes the following steps that: control abilities of a predetermined APP used by a user is received, wherein the control abilities include one ability selected from the ability of the predetermined APP to control device type and the ability of the predetermined APP to control a function list; functions corresponding to the control abilities are compared with functions owned by target intelligent home electric appliances, wherein the target intelligent home electric appliances are intelligent home electric appliances of the same type which the user is determined to use; and a function set commonly belonging to the functions corresponding to the control abilities and the functions owned by the target intelligent home electric appliances is transmitted to the home gateway, and the target intelligent home electric appliances can be controlled by functions in the function set. With the method, the cloud platform and the home gateway of the invention adopted, fixed apps of the target intelligent home electric appliances are not needed to be used, and problems existing in unified control on heterogeneous home electric appliances caused by incapability of mixed use of different APPs configured on the heterogeneous home electric appliances can be solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of smart home, in particular to a method for controlling heterogeneous smart home appliances, a cloud platform and a home gateway. Background technique [0002] In the existing smart home scenario, users can use smart terminals to control smart home appliances in two ways, namely, small circulation and large circulation. Small loop: Smart terminals control smart home appliances through the home smart gateway in the home domain network. Big cycle: First, the smart terminal sends the application instructions to the Pingyun platform through the mobile Internet; then, the cloud platform forwards the application instructions to the connected home smart gateway through the mobile Internet, so as to realize the control of smart home appliances. [0003] For the control operation, the user generally controls the smart home appliances through a specific application program (APP) running on the smart terminal. The current con...
