If the Wi-Fi SSID information is obtained by scanning, it is judged whether the Wi-Fi SSID information is in the preset database, and if the Wi-Fi SSID information is in the preset database, it is judged that the identification information matches the preset identification information.

Step S4200, acquiring model information of the target device, loading and outputting operation options according to the model information.

Step S4210, judging whether the acquired model information is empty, if the acquired model information is empty, the operation option is set as the default operation option. That is, when the model information of the target device can be obtained, the operation option corresponding to the model information is loaded as the operation option output to the user; when the model information of the target device cannot be obtained, the preset operation option is loaded as the operation option output to the user Action options.

Step S5000, if the identification information satisfies the preset condition, load the remote control data of the target device. Load remote control data for the target device, including loading preset remote control data. That is to load the preset remote control data in the preset database as the remote control data of the target device.

Step S6000, receiving a remote control instruction. At this time, the remote control data has been loaded, which saves the loading time of the remote control data when connecting, and reduces the waiting time of the user when using it.

Referring to Fig. 3, in another embodiment of the remote control method of the present invention, the remote control method includes:

Step S3000, judging whether the identification information satisfies a preset condition.

Step S3100, judging whether the identification information matches the preset identification information. If the Wi-Fi SSID information is obtained by scanning, it is judged whether the Wi-Fi SSID information is in the preset database, and if the Wi-Fi SSID information is in the preset database, it is judged that the identification information matches the preset identification information.

Step S4100, determining the statistical quantity of target devices whose identification information satisfies a preset condition. That is, when the identification information of a certain target device satisfies the preset condition, the count is increased by one, and the total quantity is determined as the statistical quantity. For example, in a certain area, there are M electrical appliances in total, among which there are N target devices whose identification information satisfies the preset condition, then the statistical quantity is N.

Step S4110, judging the size of the statistical quantity, and loading and outputting the operation options according to the size of the statistical quantity. At this time, the remote control method is suitable for the scene where the target device is less than the preset value. For example, in the home user, compared with the environment such as the electrical appliance store to be remote controlled, the monitoring room of the office building, etc., the total number of the remote controlled electrical appliances is usually relatively small. The size of the statistical quantity is loaded and the operation options are output, which can be better applied to the scene where the total number of remote control appliances is small, and the judgment steps can be reduced.

Step S4120, if the statistical quantity is equal to 1, load and output the operation options of the target device. The operation option can be set as the operation interface. At this time, the user can directly operate the target device, eliminating the steps of judgment and confirmation, reducing the waiting time of the user, and improving the user experience.

Step S4130, if the statistical quantity is greater than 1, classify the target device, load and output the operation options according to the classification information. At this time, the target devices are classified, which can be quickly selected by the user.

Step S4132, if the number of target devices under the category is equal to 1, load the operation options of the target device corresponding to the category, so as to output the loaded operation options when the corresponding category is selected by the remote control command. If the target device is classified into TVs, electric fans, and air conditioners, and there is only one target device under the TV category, the operation options for this single TV will be loaded. If the user wants to watch TV at this time, select the TV After classification, the operation options of the single TV set will be directly output, wherein the output includes displaying and so on. At this time, after the user selects the type of target device to be controlled, such as a TV, the user can directly operate the target device, eliminating the steps of judgment and confirmation, reducing the user's waiting, and improving the user's experience.

Step S4134, if the number of target devices under the classification is greater than 1, load and output operation options when the target device is selected by the remote control command, or load the operation options of the target device and output the operation options when the target device is selected by the remote control command. That is, the target device is loaded and displayed when the operation options are selected, or the operation options are loaded in advance, and the loaded operation options are directly displayed when the target device is selected.

Step S4200, if the number of target devices under the category is greater than 1, obtain model information of the target device, load and output operation options according to the model information.

Step S4210, judging whether the acquired model information is empty, if the acquired model information is empty, the operation option is set as the default operation option. That is, when the model information of the target device can be obtained, the operation option corresponding to the model information is loaded as the operation option output to the user; when the model information of the target device cannot be obtained, the preset operation option is loaded as the operation option output to the user Action options.

Step S5000, if the identification information satisfies the preset condition, load the remote control data of the target device. Load remote control data for the target device, including loading preset remote control data. That is to load the preset remote control data in the preset database as the remote control data of the target device.

The preset conditions include a preset database, and the preset database includes preset identification information and corresponding preset remote control data; the preset identification information includes Wi-Fi SSID information, Wi-Fi MAC address information, Bluetooth SSID information, and Bluetooth MAC address information. At least one of the preset remote control data includes a control protocol.

Step S1100, updating the preset database at preset time intervals, including updating through at least one of network, bluetooth, and external devices. By updating the preset database at preset time intervals, the preset conditions can be set more accurately, and the remote control method can better load remote control data for the electrical appliances to be remote controlled before receiving remote control instructions, thereby improving the applicability of the remote control method.

Step S2000, acquiring identification information of a target device. For example, when some users are not aware of it, such as the first use, standby, or awakening, start scanning in the background to find relevant information about the electrical appliances to be remote controlled around them.

Step S2100, scan at preset time intervals to acquire identification information of the target device.

Step S3000, judging whether the identification information satisfies a preset condition.

Step S3100, judging whether the identification information matches the preset identification information. If the Wi-Fi SSID information is obtained by scanning, it is judged whether the Wi-Fi SSID information is in the preset database, and if the Wi-Fi SSID information is in the preset database, it is judged that the identification information matches the preset identification information.
