Abstract

Claims (43)

1 . An electronic device control method, comprising:

receiving, by an electronic device, a user identifier for each of a plurality of device users of a user group;

receiving a login to the user identifier of a first user of the user group, the user identifier for the first user including a first voice assistant of the first user;

receiving a voice instruction entered through a voice assistant on the electronic device for a second user of the user group;

receiving, by the electronic device, an indication of a current user state of a target device responsive to a first request message sent by the electronic device, wherein a second voice assistant of the second user is logged into the target device;

and

transmitting information based on the voice instruction entered through the first voice assistant of the electronic device to the second voice assistant of the target device to cause the second voice assistant of the target device to execute an instruction when the current user state of the target device meets a predetermined condition.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the current user state is determined by the electronic device to meet a noise environment required by the second user.

3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the target device includes a target user identifier, the electronic device includes a user identifier, and the user identifier and the target user identifier are included in a common voice assistant group.

4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the voice instruction comprises event information and a time point.

5 . An electronic device control method, comprising:

receiving, by a target electronic device, a first request message from a source electronic device to obtain a current user state of the target electronic device;

obtaining, by the target electronic device, the current user state of the target electronic device;

sending, by the target electronic device, the current user state of the target electronic device to the source electronic device;

receiving information from the source electronic device; and

processing, by the target electronic device, the received information to cause a voice assistant of the target electronic device to execute an instruction included in the received information when the current user state is a user state determined by the target device to be conducive for execution of the instruction by the voice assistant of the target device.

6 . The method according to claim 5 , wherein the obtaining the current user state of the target electronic device comprises at least one of:

using a sensor; or

collecting information from an external source.

7 . The method according to claim 6 , wherein the target electronic device includes a target user identifier, the source electronic device includes a user identifier, and the user identifier and the target user identifier are included in a common voice assistant group.

8 . The method according to claim 7 , further comprising:

receiving, by the target electronic device, first information comprising event information and a time point; and

displaying, by the target electronic device, the event information based on the time point.

9 . The method according to claim 5 , wherein processing by the target device of at least one of the received information or instruction included in the received instruction comprises processing voice data received from the source device.

10 . An electronic device, comprising:

one or more processors;

a memory; and

one or more computer programs, the one or more computer programs being stored in the memory comprising instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the electronic device to perform the following operations:

receive a user identifier for each of a plurality of device users of a user group;

receive a login to the user identifier of a first user of the user group, the user identifier for the first user including a voice assistant of the first user;

receive a voice instruction entered through a voice assistant on-the electronic device for a second user of the user group;

receive an indication of a current user state of a target device responsive to a first request message sent by the electronic device, wherein a second voice assistant of the second user is logged into the target device;

and

transmit information based on the voice instruction entered through the voice assistant of the electronic device to a voice assistant of the target device to cause the voice assistant of the target device to execute an instruction when the current user state of the target device meets a predetermined condition.

11 . The electronic device according to claim 10 , wherein execution of the instructions by the at least one processor further cause the electronic device to perform the following operations:

determine a plurality of target devices in an area in which the electronic device is located, wherein at least one of the plurality of target devices is associated with the second user;

send a first request message to the plurality of target devices to obtain a current user state associated with each of the plurality of target devices; and

receive at least one current user state from at least one of the target devices.

12 . The electronic device according to claim 10 , wherein information is transmitted by the electronic device when the current user state is determined to meet a noise environment required by the second user.

13 . The electronic device according to claim 10 , wherein the each target device includes a target user identifier, the electronic device includes a user identifier, and the user identifier and the target user identifier are included in a common voice assistant group.

14 . The electronic device according to claim 10 , wherein execution of the instructions by the at least one processor further cause the electronic device to perform the following operations:

generate first information in response to the voice instruction, wherein the voice instruction comprises event information and a time point; and

send the first information to the target device associated with the second user.
