DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS
[0049] The following clearly and completely describes the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Apparently, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0050] It should be understood that in various embodiments of the present invention, sequence numbers of processes do not mean an execution order. The execution order of the processes should be determined according to functions and internal logic of the processes, and should not be construed as any limitation on the implementation processes of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0051] It should be understood that, a device involved in this specification refers to a smart device or a mobile device that is closely related to life of a user. For example, the device may include but is not limited to a smartphone, a wearable device, a smart household, and an in-vehicle device. The wearable device may include but is not limited to a smart watch, a band, and smart glasses. In addition, a server involved in this specification may be a voice assistant server in FIG. 1A, or may be another device that can recognize a voice instruction, or may be a controller in FIG. 1B that can recognize a voice instruction.
[0052] It should be understood that, "multiple devices of one user" involved in this specification indicates that the multiple devices have a same user account, and the multiple devices remain wirelessly connected by using the same user account.
[0053] It should be understood that, a "voice instruction" involved in this specification includes a voice operation instruction and/or a voice wakeup instruction.
[0054] FIG. 1A is a schematic diagram of a scenario to which a communication method according to an embodiment of the present invention is applicable. As shown in FIG. 1A, a voice assistant server communicates with multiple devices of one user, and the multiple devices can simultaneously receive a same voice wakeup instruction or voice operation instruction that is sent by the user. FIG. 1A uses only an example that the voice assistant server communicates with a mobile phone, a wearable device, an in-vehicle device, and a smart household of one user. However, no limitation is imposed on a device in this embodiment of the present invention.
[0055] Optionally, as shown in FIG. 1B, the multiple devices in FIG. 1A may further form an ad hoc network. A controller in the ad hoc network may be an independent device, or may be any device in the multiple devices.
[0056] It should be understood that in this embodiment of the present invention, a voice assistant may be a processing module integrated into a device, or a client installed in a device. The client corresponding to the voice assistant may display a corresponding icon or interface on a display screen of the device, or may not display a corresponding icon or interface but only runs in a background. The voice assistant may recognize corresponding voice data by using pre-stored voice data. The voice assistant in this embodiment of the present invention may also be referred to as an intelligent assistant, a personal organizer, or the like. No limitation is imposed in this embodiment of the present invention.
[0057] The voice assistant server can receive a voice operation parsing request sent by a device, and parse a voice operation instruction carried in the voice operation parsing request, so as to determine an operation corresponding to the voice operation instruction, and deliver indication information of the operation to the device.
[0058] FIG. 2 is a schematic flowchart of a communication method 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention. A server communicates with multiple devices of one user, and the multiple devices can simultaneously receive a same voice instruction sent by the user. The method 200 may be executed by the server (such as a voice assistant server or a controller in an ad hoc network). As shown in FIG. 2, the method 200 includes the following content: 210. Receive information sent by each device in multiple devices of one user, where the information includes a device type. 220. Determine, according to at least the received information, a device responding to a voice instruction in the multiple devices.
[0059] The device responding to a voice instruction performs an operation corresponding to the voice instruction.
[0060] 230. Send a message to a device different from the device responding to a voice instruction in the multiple devices, where the message is used to instruct a voice assistant of the different device not to respond to the voice instruction.
[0061] Optionally, the message may further carry identifier information of the device responding to a voice instruction, so as to notify the different device that the device responds to the voice instruction.
[0062] A device type of each device may be any one of the following types: a mobile phone, a band, an in-vehicle terminal, a stereo, a television, or the like. The device responding to a voice instruction may also be referred to as a preferential response device, a primary device, an execution device, a preferred device, or the like.
[0063] For example, the server may pre-store response priority information corresponding to multiple device types, and the server may determine, according to response priorities corresponding to the device types, a device that preferentially responds to a voice instruction. It is assumed that the server pre-stores response priorities, in descending order, corresponding to the following device types: an in-vehicle device, a band, a mobile phone, and a stereo. When the device types received in step 210 are a band, an in-vehicle device, and a mobile phone, the server may determine, according to locally pre-stored response priority information, that the in-vehicle device is the device responding to a voice instruction.
[0064] Optionally, in step 230, the message sent to the device different from the device responding to a voice instruction in the multiple devices may further carry sleep instruction information, so that a device that does not respond to a voice instruction enters a sleep state according to the sleep instruction information. A low-power voice wakeup module of the device that enters the sleep state is still in a monitoring state, but not responds to a received voice instruction.
[0065] In this embodiment of the present invention, information sent by multiple devices of one user is received, and a device preferentially responding to a voice instruction is determined from the multiple devices according to the information. For a user having multiple different devices, a device responding to a voice instruction can be intelligently selected, and more convenient and natural man-machine interaction experience is provided for the user.
[0066] It should be understood that, when a device of the user does not receive the message sent in step 230, for example, when a device does not receive the message sent by the server within a preset time period, the device may be considered, by default, as the device responding to a voice instruction, that is, the device can respond to a received voice instruction. For example, the device may send, to the server, a voice operation parsing request that carries a voice instruction; request, from the server, an operation corresponding to the voice instruction; and perform the operation. However, no limitation is imposed in this embodiment of the present invention. For example, in the method 200, the server may simultaneously send a message to the device responding to a voice instruction, so as to instruct the device to respond to a voice instruction. After receiving the message, the device may request, from the server, an operation corresponding to a received voice instruction, and perform the operation.
[0067] Optionally, the information sent by each device may further include at least one of a scene mode of a device or a voice instruction.
[0068] For example, a scene mode of each device may include any one of the following types: driving, in a living room, in a bedroom, exercising, working, a headset mode, a loudspeaker mode, or the like.
[0069] When the information sent by each device includes a device type and a scene mode, the voice assistant server or the controller may pre-store priority information and the like that are of response devices and are corresponding to different device information, different scene modes, and different device types of one user. For example, the following Table 1 shows a correspondence between a device responding to a voice instruction, and a device type and a scene mode. After receiving device types and scene modes of multiple devices, the server matches the scene modes and the device types with the pre-stored information shown in Table 1. For example, if the scene mode is "driving", and currently received device types include a mobile phone, a band, and an in-vehicle device, the server automatically selects the in-vehicle device as a current device responding to a voice instruction. It should be noted that in Table 1, the device type is used to indicate the device responding to a voice instruction, but no limitation is imposed in this embodiment of the present invention. For example, the server may also pre-store a correspondence between a device identifier and a device type. In the correspondence table shown in Table 1, a device identifier may also be used to indicate the device responding to a voice instruction.
[0070] It should be further understood that, content shown in Table 1 is only an example, but is not intended to limit the scope of this embodiment of the present invention. The server may also pre-store a correspondence between multiple devices for which priorities are set, and a device type, a scene mode and/or semantic meaning, and may preset a device with a relatively high priority in the multiple devices as the device responding to a voice instruction. For example, when device types received by the server do not include a pre-stored device type corresponding to a device with a highest priority, the server determines that a device with a secondary highest priority in the multiple devices is the device responding to a voice instruction, and so on. Table 1 Scene mode Semantic meaning Device type Device responding to a voice instruction Driving / Mobile phone, band, and in-vehicle device In-vehicle device Exercising / Mobile phone and band Band Working / Mobile phone and band Mobile phone / Make a call Mobile phone and band Mobile phone / Send an SMS message Mobile phone and band Band Headset mode Listen to music Mobile phone and stereo Mobile phone Loudspeaker mode Listen to music Mobile phone and stereo Stereo In a living room Listen to music Mobile phone and stereo Stereo In a bedroom Listen to music Mobile phone and band Mobile phone In a living room Watch TV Mobile phone and television Television In a bedroom Watch TV Mobile phone and television Mobile phone
[0071] When the information sent by each device further includes a device type and a voice instruction, step 220 correspondingly includes: recognizing semantic meaning of the voice instruction; and determining, according to the device type and the semantic meaning of the voice instruction, the device responding to a voice instruction from the multiple devices.
[0072] As shown in Table 1, the server may also pre-store a correspondence between a device responding to a voice instruction, and a device type and semantic meaning. The server recognizes semantic meaning of a voice instruction. For example, if the semantic meaning is "make a call", and received device types include a mobile phone and a band, the server determines that the device responding to a voice instruction is the mobile phone.
[0073] When the information sent by each device includes a device type, a scene mode, and a voice instruction, step 220 specifically includes: recognizing semantic meaning of the voice instruction; and determining, according to the device type, the semantic meaning of the voice instruction, and the scene mode, the device responding to a voice instruction from the multiple devices.
[0074] As shown in Table 1, the server may also pre-store a correspondence between a device responding to a voice instruction, and a scene mode, a device type, and semantic meaning. For example, if semantic meaning is "listen to music", and obtained device types include a mobile phone, a stereo, and an in-vehicle device, the server continues to obtain scene modes of devices corresponding to the device types, for example, the scene mode is "in a living room", and the server determines that a current device responding to a voice instruction is the stereo. Certainly, the server may determine a scene mode first, and then determine, according to semantic meaning, a current device responding to a voice instruction.
[0075] In this embodiment of the present invention, the device responding to a voice instruction is determined according to semantic meaning of a voice instruction, a scene mode, and a device type, so that a device can be more accurately selected.
[0076] Optionally, the method 200 may further include: determining an operation corresponding to a voice instruction; and sending, to the device responding to a voice instruction, indication information that is used to indicate the operation.
[0077] It should be noted that, if the controller in the ad hoc network cannot parse a voice instruction, after the controller determines, according to a device type and a scene mode, the device responding to a voice instruction, the controller needs to send a message to the device responding to a voice instruction, so as to instruct the device responding to a voice instruction to send, to the server (such as a voice assistant server), a voice operation parsing request that carries the voice instruction.
[0078] In conclusion, after determining a device responding to a voice instruction from multiple devices, a server may send a message to a device that does not respond to a voice instruction in the multiple devices, so as to instruct a voice assistant of the device that does not respond to a voice instruction not to respond to a received voice instruction or instruct a voice assistant of the device that does not respond to a voice instruction to enter a sleep state. Optionally, the server may simultaneously send a message to the device responding to a voice instruction, so as to instruct the device to respond to a received voice instruction. In this case, only a voice assistant of the device responding to a voice instruction sends a voice operation parsing request to the server after receiving a voice operation instruction.
[0079] In this embodiment of the present invention, information sent by multiple devices of one user is received, and a device preferentially responding to a voice instruction is determined from the multiple devices according to the information. For a user having multiple different devices, a device responding to a voice instruction can be intelligently selected, and more convenient and natural man-machine interaction experience is provided for the user.
[0080] FIG. 3 is a schematic flowchart of a communication method 300 according to another embodiment of the present invention. A server communicates with multiple devices of one user, and the multiple devices can simultaneously receive a same voice instruction sent by the user. The communication method 300 may be executed by the server. As shown in FIG. 3, the communication method 300 includes the following content: 310. Receive a same voice instruction sent by each device in multiple devices of one user. 320. Determine an operation corresponding to the voice instruction. 330. Send, to a device responding to a voice instruction in the multiple devices, indication information that is used to indicate the operation, where the device responding to a voice instruction is determined according to information sent by each device in the multiple devices, and the information includes a device type.
[0081] In this embodiment of the present invention, indication information of an operation is automatically sent to a device responding to a voice instruction. For a user having multiple different devices, a device responding to a voice instruction can be intelligently selected, and more convenient and natural man-machine interaction experience is provided for the user.
[0082] Optionally, before step 330, the communication method 300 may further include: receiving the information sent by each device in the multiple devices of one user, where the information includes a device type; and determining, according to the information, the device responding to a voice instruction in the multiple devices.
[0083] It should be understood that, each device may separately send information and a voice instruction, or may simultaneously send information and a voice instruction. No limitation is imposed in this embodiment of the present invention.
[0084] For example, after determining a response device from the multiple devices, the server continues to receive a voice operation parsing request sent by each device in the multiple devices; and after determining an operation corresponding to a voice instruction, sends indication information of the operation to the device responding to a voice instruction in the multiple devices.
[0085] Optionally, the communication method 300 may further include: sending a message to a device that does not respond to a voice instruction in the multiple devices, so as to notify the device that the device responding to a voice instruction performs a corresponding operation, and instruct the device to enter a sleep state.
[0086] Optionally, the information sent by each device may further include at least one of a scene mode of a device or a voice instruction.
[0087] It should be understood that in this embodiment of the present invention, for a method for determining, according to the information sent by each device, the device responding to a voice instruction, reference may be made to related description in the embodiment shown in FIG. 2. To avoid repetition, details are not described herein again.
[0088] In this embodiment of the present invention, indication information of an operation is automatically sent to a device responding to a voice instruction. For a user having multiple different devices, a device responding to a voice instruction can be intelligently selected, and more convenient and natural man-machine interaction experience is provided for the user.
[0089] FIG. 4 is a schematic flowchart of a communication method 400 according to another embodiment of the present invention. Multiple devices of one user can simultaneously receive a same voice instruction sent by the user. It should be understood that, a connection status between the multiple devices of one user and a server falls into the following three cases: 1. Voice assistants of all the devices of the user are connected to the server. 2. Voice assistants of some devices of the user are connected to the server, and voice assistants of some other devices are not connected to the server. 3. None of voice assistants of the multiple devices of the user are connected to the server. A voice assistant that is of a device and is not connected to the server may be connected to the server after receiving a voice wakeup instruction sent by the user. Optionally, the multiple devices of one user may further form an ad hoc network.
[0090] The communication method 400 may be executed by any device in the multiple devices of one user. Specifically, the communication method 400 may be executed by a device or a voice assistant of the device. As shown in FIG. 4, the communication method 400 includes the following content.
[0091] 410. Receive a first voice instruction.
[0092] 420. Enter a wakeup state according to the first voice instruction.
[0093] For example, the voice assistant of the device enters the wakeup state according to the first voice instruction.
[0094] The first voice instruction may be a voice wakeup instruction. The user or a device manufacturer may set, in a unit, a module, or a client that is corresponding to the voice assistant, content corresponding to the voice wakeup instruction. For example, if a preset voice wakeup instruction is "hi, Allen", the voice assistant enters the wakeup state when receiving a voice instruction "hi, Allen".
[0095] 430. Obtain information, where the information includes a device type.
[0096] 440. Send the information to a server.
[0097] The server may be a voice assistant server, or may be a controller in the ad hoc network. The device sends the information to the server, so that the server can determine, according to the information, whether the device is a device responding to a voice instruction.
[0098] Optionally, the information may further include at least one of a scene mode of the device or a voice instruction.
[0099] Correspondingly, when the information includes a device type and a voice instruction, it indicates that the device simultaneously sends the device type and the voice instruction to the server. Correspondingly, the communication method 400 may further include: receiving indication information that is sent by the server and is used to indicate an operation corresponding to the voice instruction. Obtaining a voice instruction includes: receiving the voice instruction.
[0100] 450. Receive a first message sent by the server according to the information, where the first message is used to instruct a voice assistant of a device not to respond to a voice instruction; or receive a second message sent by the server according to the information, where the second message is used to instruct a voice assistant of a device to respond to a voice instruction.
[0101] In this embodiment of the present invention, information is obtained, and the information is sent to a server, so that the server can determine a device responding to a voice instruction from multiple devices. For a user having multiple different devices, a device responding to a voice instruction can be intelligently selected, and more convenient and natural man-machine interaction experience is provided for the user.
[0102] In this embodiment of the present invention, response duration of the voice assistant of the device after the voice assistant of the device is woken up can be further set, such as 1 minute. That is, after the user wakes up the voice assistant by using the voice instruction "hi, Allen", the voice assistant can make a response within the response duration (such as 1 minute) only by directly receiving a voice instruction. For example, after the voice assistant receives a voice instruction such as "hi, Allen, open a map", and completes a voice operation of opening a map, the user may continue to enter a voice instruction "go to Zhongguancun" to the voice assistant. The voice assistant may directly obtain and find an optimal route to Zhongguancun, and the user does not need to enter a voice instruction such as "hi, Allen, go to Zhongguancun" to the voice assistant, thereby facilitating a user operation and improving user experience. The content is also applicable to but is not limited in all embodiments of the present invention.
[0103] Optionally, the first message received in step 450 may further carry sleep instruction information. The method 400 further includes: entering a sleep state according to the sleep instruction information.
[0104] In the sleep state, the device is still in a monitoring state, that is, the device may monitor a voice instruction (such as a voice wakeup instruction and/or a voice operation instruction) sent by the user, but not responds to the received voice instruction.
[0105] In step 450, when the first message sent by the server according to the information is received, the communication method 400 may further include: receiving a second voice instruction; and skipping responding to the second voice instruction.
[0106] For example, the second voice instruction may be a voice operation instruction.
[0107] When the second message sent by the server according to the information is received, the communication method 500 may further include: receiving a third voice instruction; sending the third voice instruction to the server; receiving a third message sent by the server according to the third voice instruction, where the third message is used to indicate an operation corresponding to the third voice instruction; and performing, according to the third message, the operation corresponding to the third voice instruction.
[0108] For example, the third voice instruction may be a voice operation instruction.
[0109] It should be understood that, the device may simultaneously send the obtained information and the received third voice instruction to the server, or may separately send the information and the third voice instruction to the server. No limitation is imposed in this embodiment of the present invention.
[0110] Therefore, in this embodiment of the present invention, information is obtained, and the information is sent to a server, so that the server can determine a device responding to a voice instruction from multiple devices. For a user having multiple different devices, a device responding to a voice instruction can be intelligently selected, and more convenient and natural man-machine interaction experience is provided for the user.
[0111] FIG. 5 is a schematic flowchart of a communication method 500 according to another embodiment of the present invention. Multiple devices of one user can simultaneously receive a same voice instruction sent by the user. The communication method 500 may be executed by any device in the multiple devices of one user. Specifically, the communication method 500 may be executed by a device or a voice assistant of the device. As shown in FIG. 5, the communication method 500 includes the following content: 510. Receive a first voice instruction. 520. Enter a wakeup state according to the first voice instruction. 530. Obtain information, where the information includes a device type. 540. Send the information to a server. 550. Receive a second voice instruction. 560. Send the second voice instruction to the server. 570. Receive indication information that is sent by the server according to the information and is used to indicate an operation corresponding to the second voice instruction.
[0112] The information may further include at least one of a scene mode of the device or a voice instruction.
[0113] It should be understood that, sequence numbers of the processes do not mean an execution order. The execution order of the processes should be determined according to functions and internal logic of the processes, and should not be construed as any limitation on the implementation processes of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0114] For example, step 540 and step 560 may be performed separately, or may be performed simultaneously. That is, the information and the second voice instruction may be separately sent to the server, or the information and the second voice instruction may be simultaneously sent to the server.
[0115] In this embodiment of the present invention, obtained information and a received voice instruction are sent to a server, so that the server can determine, according to the information, a device responding to a voice instruction from multiple devices of one user, and send indication information of an operation corresponding to the voice instruction to the device responding to a voice instruction. For a user having multiple different devices, a device responding to a voice instruction can be intelligently selected, and more convenient and natural man-machine interaction experience is provided for the user.
[0116] FIG. 6 is a schematic flowchart of a communication method 600 according to another embodiment of the present invention. Multiple devices of one user can simultaneously receive a same voice instruction sent by the user. The communication method 600 may be executed by any device in the multiple devices of one user. Specifically, the communication method 600 may be executed by a device or a voice assistant of the device. As shown in FIG. 6, the communication method 600 includes the following content: 610. Receive a first voice instruction. 620. Enter a wakeup state according to the first voice instruction. 630. Receive a second voice instruction. 640. Determine that the second voice instruction includes device information, and respond to the second voice instruction.
[0117] It should be understood that, the device information is used to distinguish the multiple devices of one user. The device information may be a device type such as a mobile phone, a band, an in-vehicle device, or a stereo, or may be a device name, or may be a device number, or the like. No limitation is imposed in this embodiment of the present invention as long as the multiple devices of one user can be recognized.
[0118] For example, a voice operation parsing request is sent to a server, and the voice operation parsing request carries the second voice instruction.
[0119] Correspondingly, when determining that the second voice instruction does not include the device information, the device does not respond to the second voice instruction.
[0120] It should be understood that, if the device recognizes that the second voice instruction does not include the device information, the device does not send a voice parsing request to the server. For example, the device may discard the second voice instruction. Alternatively, the device may stop processing the second voice instruction.
[0121] The device may pre-store the device information. When a voice instruction received by the device includes the device information, the device sends a voice operation parsing request to the server. When a voice instruction received by the device does not include the device information, the device does not respond to the voice instruction. Optionally, when a voice instruction received by the device does not include the device information, the device may send, for example, a device type, to the server, so as to request the server to determine a device responding a voice instruction from the multiple devices of the user.
[0122] It should be understood that, the first voice instruction may be a voice wakeup instruction, and the second voice instruction may be a voice operation instruction. In this embodiment of the present invention, the voice wakeup instruction and the voice operation instruction may be simultaneously received. For example, a voice instruction "hi, Allen, call Zhang San by using a mobile phone" sent by the user is received. Alternatively, the voice wakeup instruction and the voice operation instruction may be separately received. For example, a voice wakeup instruction "hi, Allen" sent by the user is first received, so as to enter the wakeup state, and a voice operation instruction "call Zhang San by using a mobile phone" sent by the user is next received within response duration. No limitation is imposed in this embodiment of the present invention.
[0123] Therefore, in this embodiment of the present invention, when it is determined that a received voice instruction includes device information, the voice instruction is automatically responded to, so that a device responding to a voice instruction can be intelligently selected, and more convenient and natural man-machine interaction experience is provided for a user.
[0124] With reference to specific examples in FIG. 7A and FIG. 7B to FIG. 11, the following describes in detail a communication method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0178] FIG. 11 is a schematic flowchart of a communication method 1100 according to another embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 11, the communication method 1100 includes the following content.
[0179] Steps 1101a, 1101b, and 1101c: Respective voice assistants of a first device, a second device, and a third device simultaneously receive a voice instruction "hi, Allen, call Zhang San by using a mobile phone".
[0180] Before this step, a device type or a device name or both is defined and stored in the first device, the second device, and the third device of one user. For example, the device type is a mobile phone, an in-vehicle device, or a band.
[0181] In addition, before this step, the voice assistant of the first device and the voice assistant of the third device are in a sleep state (in this state, a low-power wakeup module is still in an active state), and the voice assistant of the second device is in a wakeup state.
[0182] In step 1101, the voice instruction may further be "hi, Allen, start navigation by using an in-vehicle device", or "hi, Allen, turn on TV", or "hi, Allen, send an SMS message 'I have arrived' to Li Si by using a band", or the like.
[0183] Step 1102a: The voice assistant of the first device enters a wakeup state from a sleep state according to a voice wakeup instruction "hi, Allen", and determines that a voice operation instruction includes information about the first device, such as "mobile phone".
[0184] Step 1102b: The voice assistant of the second device continues to remain in a wakeup state according to the voice wakeup instruction "hi, Allen", determines that the voice operation instruction does not include local information, such as "second device", and does not respond to the voice operation instruction.
[0185] Step 1102c: The voice assistant of the third device enters a wakeup state from a sleep state according to the voice wakeup instruction "hi, Allen", determines that the voice operation instruction does not include information about the third device, such as "band", and does not respond to the voice operation instruction.
[0186] Step 1103: The voice assistant of the first device sends, to a server, a voice parsing request that carries the voice operation instruction "call Zhang San".
