Fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of an alarm processing method in an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in the drawing, the alarm processing method in the embodiment may include the following flows:

s101, starting first alarm reminding when preset alarm reminding conditions are met.

In an optional embodiment, the alarm clock is a system built in a terminal, the terminal includes a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a palmtop computer, a Mobile Internet Device (MID), a wearable device (e.g., a smart watch, etc.), and the alarm clock function includes performing alarm reminding. Before the alarm is triggered to remind each time, the alarm needs to be set, and the setting comprises the setting of the alarm reminding starting time, the setting of the alarm reminding pause interval, the setting of the ring tone and the like. And when the alarm clock meets the preset alarm clock reminding condition, starting the first alarm clock reminding, and then executing the step S102.

And S102, receiving a later reminding instruction.

Specifically, when the alarm reminder is turned on, the user can react to the alarm reminder, and the terminal can receive a corresponding processing instruction, so that the alarm reminder is turned off or paused, and the user can hear the alarm reminder. If a later alarm instruction is received, it indicates that the user simply wants to turn off the alarm temporarily, and wants to receive the subsequent alarm again. Thus, after receiving the later reminding instruction, step S103 is executed.

S103, stopping the alarm reminding and converting the alarm clock mode into a later reminding mode.

Specifically, when the alarm clock receives an instruction indicating that the user has heard the alarm reminder, the alarm reminder may be turned off temporarily. The later alert mode is entered because a later alert instruction is received. In addition, step S106 may also transition to a later reminder mode, as already given in fig. 1. In an alternative embodiment, the specific content of the later reminding mode can be set by the system, or can be customized by the user, and the functional definition thereof is shown in step S104.

And S104, starting subsequent alarm reminding after a preset time period.

In particular, the subsequent alarm reminder is a different alarm reminder than the first alarm reminder. Wherein, the alarm clock time of first alarm clock time satisfies the alarm clock that starts when presetting the condition for the first time and reminds, and the later alarm clock that reminds is that the user is after receiving first alarm clock and remind, operates it and get into and remind the mode later on, and the alarm clock that restarts reminds.

In alternative embodiments, the predetermined time interval comprises a defined interval duration, such as 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, etc. The follow-up alarm reminding comprises that the alarm clock system starts the second alarm reminding, then receives the operation of the user again, if the user still selects the later reminding, the current alarm reminding is closed, and the third alarm reminding is carried out after the preset time, and the preset time period of the time can be the same as or different from the previous time. And analogizing in turn until the user turns off the alarm reminding.

In an alternative embodiment, the content of each subsequent alarm reminder is different from the last one, for example, a person needs to be reminded of the time since the morning, and the user thinks that one alarm reminder cannot play a good reminding role, so that a later reminding mode is set. The first reminder time was 7:00, followed by reminders every 15 minutes. Then, when the time reaches 7:00, a first alarm reminder is started, which has the effect of waking up the user from deep sleep, so that a soft and soothing light music can be played. After the user wakes up, the alarm clock is reminded for a later time, and then the user falls into sleep. When the time reaches 7:15, a second alarm reminding is started, and the alarm reminding has the function of reminding the user that the time is not early and the user can get up, so that cheerful popular music can be played, and the spirit of the user is stimulated. The user hears this sound, knows the current approximate time, but still does not recall the bed, and then again performs a later reminder operation on the alarm clock and falls into sleep. When the time reaches 7:30, a third alarm reminding is started, the alarm reminding has the function of final reminding and prompts a user that the final getting-up period is reached, so that rock music with strong rhythm sense can be played, the user can feel the urgency of the time, and the final reminding effect is achieved.

In an alternative embodiment, an enhanced effect may be added to an alarm reminder such that each subsequent alarm reminder has a reminder intensity that is higher than its previous alarm reminder. As shown in table 1, the "effect" column indicates an effect to be added to the alarm reminder, and the "reminder for the next time" indicates the number of corresponding reminders. In the "volume" column, "volume 1 level" indicates the lowest volume, "volume 2 level" is slightly higher than "volume 1 level," and volume 3 level "is the highest volume. In the "tempo" column, "slow" indicates that the music tempo is relatively slow and gentle, "standard" indicates that the music tempo is normal without adding a special effect, and "strong" indicates that the music tempo is relatively fast and dynamic. The "shake" column, "no shake" means no added shake effect, "shake 1 level" means slight shake added, and "shake 2 level" means more intense shake added than shake 1 level. As can be seen from Table 1, the reminding intensity of each alarm reminding is higher than that of the previous alarm reminding, and a better reminding effect can be achieved.

In an optional embodiment, the ring of the alarm reminder may not be changed, and the enhancement effect is directly added to the original ring, for example, when the alarm reminder is started for the first time, the ring is a certain ring, and the corresponding volume level 1 and the relaxing rhythm are not added with vibration; when the alarm is started for the second time for reminding, the alarm still is the ringtone, and the vibration level 1 is added corresponding to the higher volume level 2 and the standard rhythm; when the alarm is started for the second time, the alarm is still the ringing, and the vibration level 2 is added corresponding to the highest volume level 3 and strong rhythm. This also allows for a good differentiation between alarm reminders each time. It should be noted that the level of the enhancement effect may not be limited to 3, but may be any number from 2 to 10, and the kind of the enhancement effect is not limited to the list in table 1, and may include other contents that can be added to the ring tone of the alarm reminder. The user can set the kind and intensity level of the enhancement effect as desired.

TABLE 1

In alternative embodiments, a reminder message may be added for each alarm reminder, including the current time or number of times the reminder is currently being announced. For example, in the process of reminding a user to get up in the above embodiment, the current broadcast time is 7:00 when the first alarm is reminded, the user knows that the user is in the morning after hearing the alarm, so that the user is subconsciously reminded that the user should get up, the current broadcast time is 7:15 when the second alarm is reminded, and the user is ready to get up. The current time of the last broadcast is 7:30, and the user knows that the delay can not be carried out any more, so that the user gets up in case of failure. The effective rate of alarm reminding is well improved. Meanwhile, the current reminding times can be broadcasted, if the current reminding times are 7:00, the first reminding time is broadcasted, and the second reminding time and the third reminding time are respectively broadcasted at the following 7:15 and 7:30, so that the user can be more clearly reminded by the alarm clock of the number of times, and the getting-up power is increased. In an optional embodiment, the broadcasted current time and the current reminding times can be used together, and can also be used together with different alarm rings, so as to achieve a better reminding effect.

And S105, receiving a closing instruction.

Specifically, the alarm clock receives a closing instruction, which indicates that the user wants to stop alarm reminding for a long time. However, during the operation of the user, it is not certain whether the user really wants to turn off the alarm reminder. In some cases, the closing instruction is only misoperation of the user, and if the alarm clock is directly closed to remind after the closing instruction is received, the alarm clock may lose the reminding function. Therefore, in the technical scheme of the invention, the confirmation process of the waking state of the user is provided to ensure the accuracy of the closing operation of the user. After receiving the close command, step S106 is executed.

And S106, detecting whether the current state of the user is the waking state.

Specifically, the awake state indicates that the user is currently in true desire to operate the alarm clock, not by mistake. In the technical scheme of the invention, the judgment of the waking state is mainly completed by face recognition and confirmation reminding.

In an alternative embodiment, the waking state of the user may be determined based on facial feature recognition. And when receiving the closing operation, starting a camera of the terminal to shoot the face. If the user is in the complete eye closing state or the most eye closing state, the user is in the non-waking state, and the alarm clock mode is switched to the later reminding mode. Most of the eye-closing states can be judged according to a preset iris area threshold value.

In an alternative embodiment, the waking state of the user may also be determined by determining the size of the face region. Generally, if the user is awake, the posture of his/her operation terminal should be facing up or mostly facing the terminal screen, whereas if the user is not awake, it is likely to be mostly deviated from the terminal screen. Therefore, after the camera is started, the image is collected, if a human face area meeting the preset size exists in the image, the user is in a waking state, and otherwise, the user is in a non-waking state. The size of the face region may refer to the size of the area of the face in the acquired image, or may represent the proportion of the face in the image.

In an alternative embodiment, the waking state of the user may be determined from a number of confirmation operations provided by the alarm clock. The content of the confirmation reminder may be a simple question sentence, such as "do you confirm to turn off the alarm reminder? And let the user make a selection decision. If the user selects 'no', the confirmation reminding is directly finished, and the system is converted into a later reminding mode. If the user selects 'yes', the second reminding is carried out, and the content of the second reminding can be the same as or different from that of the first reminding. The system can provide some common sense type and intelligence type questions and answers, such as simple addition and subtraction "7 + 8? "or" today is the day of the week? "may also be the reading method of asking a Chinese character, the name of a person, the picture of an animal, etc. If the user is in the waking state, the user can reasonably respond to a plurality of confirmation reminders sent by the system one by one, and if the user is in the non-waking state, the user is likely not to respond to the confirmation reminders or can not respond to the confirmation reminders in all. Therefore, the user is prompted to be confirmed and reminded for multiple times, if the alarm clock receives confirmation instructions corresponding to all the confirmation reminders, the user is judged to be in a waking state, and otherwise, the user is considered to be in a non-waking state.

The above-mentioned three specific embodiments for determining whether the user is awake are shown in embodiment 2, embodiment 3, and embodiment 4.

In an alternative embodiment, the number of confirmed reminders sent by the alarm clock may be random, because if the number of reminders is determined, the user may complete the operation according to the memory soon, and then turn off the alarm to continue sleeping, so that the alarm clock loses the function of reminding. If the number of reminders is random, the user must give sufficient attention to the alarm clock to respond one-to-one to all of the multiple acknowledgment reminders. Thus, the user can be judged to be in the waking state. Therefore, the random number of confirmation reminders are initiated for the user, if the confirmation instructions corresponding to the confirmation reminders one by one are received, the user is judged to be in a waking state, and if not, the user is judged not to be awake.

If the user is not awake, step S103 is performed, otherwise step S107 is performed.

S107, turning off alarm reminding.

Specifically, after the user is confirmed to be in the waking state, the alarm reminding can be turned off if the user operates without error.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment, there is no explicit precedence relationship between steps S102, S103, and S104 and steps S105, S106, and S107, but different processes are completed according to different received instructions.

In this embodiment, after a first alarm reminder is triggered, an operation instruction of a user is received, and if a later reminder instruction is received, the current alarm reminder is stopped and a subsequent alarm reminder is started after a preset time period, wherein each subsequent alarm reminder is different from the previous alarm reminder in ring tones, or an enhancement effect is added, or the time and the number of times are added for broadcasting; if the closing instruction is received, whether the user is awake or not needs to be judged, the judgment can be carried out according to the face shot by the terminal camera, the judgment can also be carried out according to multiple confirmation information provided by the alarm clock, if the user is in the awake state, the alarm clock is closed for reminding, and if not, the mode is converted into a later reminding mode. In the process, the user is reminded of the alarm with different contents for many times, the operation state of the user is further confirmed, and the alarm clock is guaranteed to provide effective reminding. The effective rate of alarm clock reminding is greatly improved.

Fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart of the determination of the awake state of the user in the embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in the figure, the method for determining the awake state of the user in the embodiment may include the following flows:

s201, starting the camera.

In the embodiment of the invention, the alarm clock is a system built in the smart phone, and at present, basically all smart phones in the market are provided with cameras. Therefore, when the smart phone receives a corresponding operation instruction, the camera is directly started. After the camera is turned on, step S202 is executed.

And S202, acquiring a face image.

Different face images can be collected through the camera lens, and for example, static images, dynamic images, different positions, different expressions and the like can be well collected. When the user is in the shooting range of the acquisition equipment, the acquisition equipment can automatically search and shoot the face image of the user. In the embodiment of the invention, the smart phone acquires the face image of the user after the camera is started, firstly obtains the face image of the user, and then intercepts the eye image of the user according to the requirement. After the image acquisition is completed, step S203 is executed.

And S203, detecting whether the eyes of the user are open.

In the embodiment of the invention, after the eye image of the user is obtained, the iris is positioned, and the iris area is calculated according to the positioned iris area. And after the iris area in the image is obtained, comparing the iris area with a preset iris area, and judging that the user is in a full-open eye state, an narrow eye state or a closed eye state according to a comparison result. In the step, whether the user opens the eyes or not is judged, whether the user is in a full-eye opening state or not can be judged, and whether the size of the area of the eye opening area of the user meets the preset size or not can be judged. After determining that the user opens his eyes, step S204 is performed, and if not, step S205 is performed.

And S204, determining that the user is in an awake state.

In the embodiment of the invention, generally, if the user is not awake and does not count to get up, the user cannot open the eyes to view the alarm clock of the mobile phone seriously, otherwise, the eyes of the user are completely shot by the camera of the smart phone and are judged to be in an eye opening state, which indicates that the user is already awake.

And S205, determining that the user is in a non-awake state.

In the embodiment of the invention, if the camera shoots the human eye image of the user and the user is determined to be in the completely eye-closed state or the mostly eye-closed state through comparison and analysis, the user does not count to get up at the moment, the action of turning off the alarm clock is only a subconscious action, and the user is likely to continue sleeping after turning off the alarm clock. At this time, it is determined that the user is not awake.

In the embodiment, the terminal starts the camera, collects the face image of the user, detects the eye opening condition of the user and judges the waking state of the user, and the process objectively judges the correctness of the user when the user operates the alarm clock by detecting the body characteristics of the user and reduces the misoperation rate of the closing instruction.

Fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart of another user awake state determination method in the embodiment of the present invention, where the user awake state determination method in the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

s301, starting the camera.

In the embodiment of the invention, the alarm clock is built in the smart phone, and most of the smart phones in the market have the camera function, so that when the smart phone receives a corresponding alarm clock operation instruction, the camera in the smart phone is directly started. After the camera is turned on, step S302 is executed.

And S302, acquiring a face image.

Different face images can be collected through the camera lens, and for example, static images, dynamic images, different positions, different expressions and the like can be well collected. In the embodiment of the invention, the face image is uploaded in the equipment, and the feature analysis and the recording are carried out on the face image. Then, the camera is used for collecting images in the shooting range, and the equipment can automatically search and shoot the face images of the user according to the stored face image characteristics. In the embodiment of the present invention, the terminal acquires the face image of the user after turning on the camera, and executes step S303 after the acquisition is completed.

S303, detecting whether the human face area meets the preset size.

In the embodiment of the invention, after the image is acquired, the face area in the image is identified, generally, if the user is in a waking state, the user can be just opposite to a terminal screen when operating the terminal, and most or all of the face of the user is shot by the camera. Therefore, before the operation, a human face area threshold value is set, a human face image is collected, the size of the corresponding area of the human face image is calculated, and the human face area is assumed to be 6cm in the collected image²Then the shooting threshold for determining the awake state may be set to one third of the area, i.e., 2cm². Then when it is detected that the area of the face region of the user in the image acquired in step S302 is greater than or equal to 2cm²If yes, the user is determined to be awake, and step S304 is performed, otherwise, step S305 is performed.

S304, determining that the user is in the waking state.

In the embodiment of the invention, in general, if a user is not awake and does not count to get up, the user can subconsciously stretch to turn off the alarm clock, the condition of the terminal cannot be checked, or the user can select to turn off after seeing the turn-off key far away. On the contrary, if the user faces most of the face to the terminal screen and operates the alarm, the user is in the waking state.

And S305, determining that the user is in a non-awake state.

In the embodiment of the present invention, as described in step S304, if the user is not awake, the user may subconsciously stretch to turn off the alarm clock, and may not view the situation of the terminal, or may choose to turn off after seeing where the turn-off key is located far away, at this time, the camera may not acquire the face area of the user, or may acquire only a small area. In this case, it can be determined that the user is not awake.

In an alternative embodiment, if no face area is detected in the process of acquiring the face image of the user, the user is directly judged to be in the non-waking state.

In this embodiment, the terminal starts the camera, collects the face image of the user, and detects whether the face area of the user meets the preset area, so as to judge the waking state of the user, and the correctness of the user when operating the alarm clock is objectively judged by detecting the body characteristics of the user in the process, so that the misoperation rate of the closing instruction is reduced.

Fig. 4 is a schematic flow chart of another user awake state determination method in the embodiment of the present invention, where the user awake state determination method in the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

s401, sending out a first confirmation prompt.

In the embodiment of the invention, when the user selects the closing operation, the alarm clock initiates a first confirmation prompt to confirm whether the user is awake. Then, the content of the confirmation reminder may be a simple question sentence, such as "do you confirm to turn off the alarm? And let the user make a selection decision. Step S402 is performed.

S402, whether a confirmation instruction corresponding to the first confirmation prompt is received or not is detected.

In the embodiment of the invention, the user performs corresponding operation on the received confirmation prompt. What the user receives is "do you confirm to turn off the alarm? "and selects the operation of" yes "and" no ", the terminal detects the received instruction, if it detects that the received instruction is" yes ", step S403 is executed, if it detects that the received instruction is" no ", it considers that the closing operation by the user at this time is an erroneous operation, and step S408 is executed.

And S403, sending a second confirmation prompt.

In the embodiment of the invention, after the first confirmation operation of the user is received, whether the user is really awake cannot be determined, so that the content of the reminder can be different questions and answers like the first confirmation reminder to give the second reminding operation. Simple addition and subtraction "7 + 8? ", and waits for the user to give an answer to determine if the user is awake. After the second confirmation prompt is issued, step S404 is executed.

S404, whether a confirmation instruction corresponding to the second confirmation reminding is received or not is detected.

In the embodiment of the invention, the user gives corresponding operation to the received second confirmation prompt. The user receives "7 + 8? "confirmation prompt, the question answer has only one correct answer, which is" 15 ", if the user gives the answer, the terminal determines that the confirmation instruction is received, and executes step S405. If the user gives any wrong answer except 15, the terminal judges that the confirmation instruction is not received, and performs step S408. In addition, if the terminal does not receive any command after a preset time interval, such as 5S, it is also determined that the confirmation command is not received, and step S408 is performed.

And S405, sending a third confirmation prompt.

In the embodiment of the invention, the user has performed the confirmation operation twice, so that the possibility of misoperation of the user is greatly reduced. Thus, the content of the third confirmation reminder may be "can you open your eyes sneeze? "this class of interesting questions and answers to reduce the user's uncooperative mood. And the set number of answers may be 2, that is, if the user answers wrong for the first time, the user may be prompted to input the answer again. After the third confirmation prompt is issued, step S406 is executed.

S406, whether a confirmation instruction corresponding to the third confirmation prompt is received or not is detected.

In the embodiment of the present invention, since it is set that the user can give the confirmation reminder twice, the terminal can perform the confirmation twice, the above-mentioned problem "can you open the eyes and sneeze? If the answer is negative, if the instruction of no is received, the user is judged to receive the confirmation instruction, step S407 is executed, if the wrong answer is received, the user is reminded that the answer can be input again, if the instruction of no is received for the second time, the user is judged to receive the confirmation instruction, step S407 is executed, otherwise, step S408 is executed.

S407, determining that the user is in an awake state.

In an alternative embodiment, after three confirmation reminders are performed and a corresponding confirmation instruction is received each time, it may be determined that the user is in a waking state.

In an optional embodiment, the number of the confirmation reminders initiated by the alarm clock may also include four, five, six, and the like, and the more the number of the confirmation reminders initiated is, the more accurately the user can be determined to be in the waking state. However, the user experience is reduced due to the excessive setting of the number of confirmation reminders, so that the number of the setting of the confirmation reminders ranges from 2 to 10.

In an alternative embodiment, the number of reminders of the alarm clock may be randomly determined by the system. Since the system randomly confirms the reminding times, the user cannot know in advance, so that the user needs to give enough attention to input confirmation instructions for confirming the reminding each time one by one, and the user is difficult to do if the user is in a non-waking state. Accordingly, if the user gives a corresponding confirmation instruction for all the random number of alarm reminders, it can be determined that the user is already in the awake state.

And S408, determining that the user is in the non-awake state.

In an alternative embodiment, if the user is in the not-awake state, there is no patience and no sufficient attention to respond to all the confirmation reminders one by one, so that the user does not make a confirmation instruction in any one confirmation reminder, and then the user is determined to be in the not-awake state.

In this embodiment, the alarm clock sends three or any multiple confirmation reminders, receives a confirmation instruction of the user, and determines that the user is in a waking state if the user completes each confirmation operation corresponding to the confirmation reminder, or determines that the user is not in the waking state. The process greatly reduces the possibility of misoperation of a user through multiple times of confirmation.
