Abstract

A smart toilet ( 100 ) includes an information acquisition device ( 110 ) and a control device ( 120 ). The information acquisition device ( 110 ) is configured to acquire feature information of the smart toilet ( 100 ) in a working state, the feature information at least including voiceprint information and odor information, or voiceprint information, or odor information of a human body using the smart toilet ( 100 ). The control device ( 120 ) includes an identity recognition component ( 121 ) configured to recognize, according to the feature information, the identity of the human body using the smart toilet ( 100 ). An electric appliance system including the smart toilet ( 100 ) is further included.

Claims (23)

1. A smart toilet, comprising:

an information acquisition apparatus, comprising a voiceprint recognition apparatus, an odor scanner, a position detection component and a timing component, configured to acquire feature information of the smart toilet in a working state, the feature information at least comprising voiceprint information of a human body using the smart toilet acquired by the voiceprint recognition apparatus, odor information of the human body using the smart toilet acquired by the odor scanner, a position of the human body relative to the smart toilet acquired by the position detection component, and usage time of the smart toilet acquired by the timing component; and

a control apparatus, comprising an identity recognition component, configured to recognize, according to the feature information, an identity of the human body using the smart toilet;

wherein the identity recognition component is configured to use an artificial neural network algorithm to recognize the identity of the human body using the smart toilet according to the feature information, wherein the artificial neural network algorithm is used for fitting a corresponding relationship between the identity of the human body and the feature information.

2. The smart toilet as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the information acquisition apparatus further comprises: a face recognition component and a weighing component, and the feature information further comprises at least one of the followings: face image information acquired by the face recognition component and a weight of the human body acquired by the weighing component.

3. The smart toilet as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising: a metabolite sampling apparatus, configured to sample metabolites excreted into the smart toilet by the human body, and

the control apparatus further comprises a metabolite analysis component, configured to analyze compositions of the metabolites sampled by the metabolite sampling apparatus.

4. The smart toilet as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the metabolite analysis component is configured to analyze at least one of the followings: pH, urine specific gravity, urobilinogen, occult blood, leukocyte content, urine protein content, bilirubin content, ketone body content, urine red blood cell content, and urine color in urine; and the metabolite analysis component is configured to analyze at least one of the followings: a red blood cell count, white blood cell content, pus cell content, and the type and content of parasite eggs in feces.

5. The smart toilet as claimed in claim 3 , further comprising: a storage apparatus, the control apparatus being configured to store a compositions analysis result obtained by the metabolite analysis component in the storage apparatus in a manner corresponding to the identity recognized by the identity recognition component.

6. The smart toilet as claimed in claim 5 , further comprising: a communication component, wherein the control apparatus is configured to communicate with a server and a terminal through the communication component, and the control apparatus is configured to upload, through the communication component, the compositions analysis result of the metabolite analysis component and the corresponding identity information recognized by the identity recognition component to the server and the terminal.

7. The smart toilet as claimed in claim 5 , further comprising: a prompt apparatus, the storage apparatus is further configured to store a standard range of metabolite compositions corresponding to different body feature parameter ranges, and the control apparatus is configured to obtain a body feature parameter range according to the identity recognized by the identity recognition component, and compare the compositions analysis result of the metabolite analysis component with the standard range of metabolite compositions corresponding to the body feature parameter range, and when the compositions analysis result is outside the standard range, the control apparatus is further configured to control the prompt apparatus to prompt that the compositions analysis result is outside the standard range.

8. The smart toilet as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising: an information entry component, configured to enter identity information, and the identity recognition component is configured to recognize the identity of the human body using the smart toilet according to the feature information and the identity information entered by the information entry component.

9. An electric appliance system, comprising the smart toilet as claimed in claim 1 , and further comprising a smart device, the smart device comprising at least one of a wearable device, home fitness equipment, and a household appliance, wherein the smart toilet is connected with the smart device, and both the smart toilet and the smart device are connected with a server.

10. The electric appliance system as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the household appliance comprises at least one of an air conditioner, a cooking appliance, an air purifier, a humidifier, and a refrigerator.

11. The electric appliance system as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the smart toilet further comprises a metabolite sampling apparatus and a metabolite analysis component, the metabolite sampling apparatus is configured to sample metabolites excreted into the smart toilet by a human body, the metabolite analysis component is configured to analyze the compositions of the metabolites sampled by the metabolite sampling apparatus, and

a control apparatus of the smart toilet or the server is configured to push prompt information to the smart device according to a compositions analysis result obtained by the metabolite analysis component.

12. The electric appliance system as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the prompt information comprises at least one of a dietary advice, a fitness plan, and a recommended environment parameter setting.

13. The smart toilet as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the metabolite analysis component is configured to analyze at least one of the followings: pH, urine specific gravity, urobilinogen, occult blood, leukocyte content, urine protein content, bilirubin content, ketone body content, urine red blood cell content, and urine color in urine.
