为使本申请实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本申请的各实施方式进行详细的阐述。然而,本领域的普通技术人员可以理解,在本申请各实施方式中,为了使读者更好地理解本申请而提出了许多技术细节。但是,即使没有这些技术细节和基于以下各实施方式的种种变化和修改,也可以实现本申请所要求保护的技术方案。
本申请的第一实施方式涉及一种自动售货装置,包括控制模组、柜体、至少一柜门、以及连接于控制模组的至少一摄像模组;柜体设有用于放置货品的货架,柜门与摄像模组是数量相等且一一对应;柜门连接于柜体,当柜门被锁定时,禁止用户从货架取货,当柜门被解锁时,供用户从货架上取货;摄像模组安装在柜体的内壁,且用于捕捉用户从货架将货品取出到柜体外的取货图像;控制模组用于在接收到用户的访问命令时,解锁柜门并启动摄像模组;控制模组还用于通过摄像模组捕捉用户从货架将货品取出到柜体外的取货图像;控制模组还用于在检测到柜门被锁定时,至少根据取货图像,与用户绑定的支付账户完成支付交易。
本申请实施方式相对于现有技术而言,当接收到用户的访问命令时,解锁柜门并启动摄像模组,从而能够通过摄像模组捕捉用户从货架将货品取出到柜体外的取货图像,当检测到柜门被锁定时,说明用户已经完成取货,至少根据取货图像,与用户绑定的支付账户完成支付交易。从而,用户可以真实触摸选购自己所需的物品,拿走关门即可实现自动结算,免去用户现金或者手机支付的过程;对于用户来说,只需进行开门、取货、关门便可以完成整个购物环节,非常便利,提高了用户的购物体验;并且,不存在物品被卡住的风险。
下面对本实施方式的自动售货装置的实现细节进行具体的说明,以下内容仅为方便理 解提供的实现细节,并非实施本方案的必须。
本实施方式中,请参考图1与图2,自动售货装置包括控制模组1、柜体2、至少一柜门3以及摄像模组4,摄像模组4连接于控制模组1;其中,柜体2中设有用于放置货品的货架5,柜门3连接于柜体2,柜门3与摄像模组4的数量相等且一一对应。本实施例以及之后的实施例中,均以货品为瓶装饮料为例,然不限于此,货品还可以为其他类型的物品,例如,零食、饼干等。本实施例中,柜体2上设有能够锁定柜门3的门锁22,当柜门3被锁定时,禁止用户打开柜门3从货架5上取货;当柜门3被解锁时,用户可以打开柜门3从货架5上取货。
本实施例中,摄像模组4安装在柜体2的内壁21上,且用于捕捉用户从货架5将货品取出到柜体2外的取货图像。
在一个例子中,柜门3的数量为两扇,且各柜门3可旋转地连接于柜体2的内壁21,两扇柜门3分别可旋转地连接于柜体2的两个内壁21上,用户可以从中间拉开各柜门3,此时,柜体2的两个内壁21上均安装有摄像模组4。
在一个例子中,摄像模组4包括两个摄像头41,其中一个摄像头41设置在柜体2的内壁21的顶端,该摄像头41的主光轴与内壁21之间的角度的范围为[45度,55度],例如50度;另一个摄像头41设置在内壁21的中间位置,该摄像头41的主光轴与内壁21之间的角度的范围为[35度,45度],例如为40度。请参考图3,为摄像头41安装在内壁21上的示意图,虚线表示摄像头41的主光轴,X表示摄像头41的主光轴与内壁21之间的角度。
本实施例中,各摄像头41的镜头均为非广角镜头;较佳的,各摄像头的镜头角度的范围为[16度,49度]。本实施例中,以摄像模组4包括两个摄像头41为例,然不限于此,摄像模组4包括的摄像头的数目需要根据货架的高度来设定,货架的高度越高,所需的摄像头数目越多。需要说明的是,本实施例中以摄像模组4中的摄像头的镜头均为非广角摄像头为例,然不限于此,摄像模组4中的摄像头的镜头也可以为广角镜头,此时摄像模组4中可以仅包括一个摄像头。
本实施例中,控制模组1在接收到用户的访问命令时,控制门锁22打开,解锁柜门3并启动摄像模组4中的各摄像头41,当用户打开柜门3,并从货架5上取货时,控制模组1通过摄像模组4中的各摄像头41捕捉用户从货架5将货品取出到柜体外的取货图像;然后,当用户关闭柜门3时,门锁22自动锁定柜门3,控制模组1在检测到柜门3被锁定时,至少根据取货图像,与用户绑定的支付账户完成支付交易;其中,控制模组1从用户的访问命令中获取与用户绑定的支付账户;其中,当用户取出货品后的预设时间内,即便柜门 3未被关闭,控制模组1也会与用户绑定的支付账户完成支付交易。较佳的,在柜门3上设置一个自动回位结构,以使柜门3自动回位到关闭状态,能够防止用户取货之后忘记关闭柜门3。
在一个例子中,控制模组1包括中央处理器与图形处理器,中央处理器用于处理数据,图形处理器用于处理取货图像。
较佳的,自动售货装置还包括固定在柜体2上的监控摄像头6,监控摄像头6连接于控制模组1,监控摄像头6用于记录自动售货装置附近的图像。
在一个例子中,自动售货装置还包括照明装置(图中未示出),照明装置固定在柜体2的内壁上,照明装置例如为发光二极管(Light Emitting Diode,LED)灯。
本申请的第二实施方式涉及一种自动售货装置。第二实施方式是在第一实施方式基础上的改进,主要改进之处在于:本实施方式中,请参考图4与图5,自动售货装置还包括若干个重力传感器7,若干个重力传感器设置在货架5的底部,且连接于控制模组1。
在一个例子中,自动售货装置包括4个重力传感器7,4个重力传感器7分别设置在货架5的底部的四个角上。
若干个重力传感器7用于检测货架5的重量变化信息。其中,在柜门3从解锁到被锁定期间,当若干个重力传感器7检测到货架5的重量减小时,则说明用户从货架5上取出了货品;当若干个重力传感器7检测到货架5的重量没有变化时,则说明用户未从货架5上取出货品。
控制模组1具体用于根据重量变化信息以及取货图像,与用户绑定的支付账户完成支付交易。
本实施方式相对于第一实施方式而言,在货架的底部设置了重力传感器来检测货架的重量变化信息,当货架的重量减小时,说明用户取出了货品,结合重量变化信息与取货图像,从而提高了判断用户是否取出货品的准确度。
本申请的第三实施方式涉及一种自动售货装置。第三实施方式是在第一实施方式基础上的改进,主要改进之处在于:本实施方式中,请参考图6与图7,自动售货装置还包括多个距离传感器8。
本实施例中,货架5包括多个货道51,各货道51用于放置货品,各货道51朝向柜门3向下倾斜,距离传感器8与货道51的数量相等且一一对应,各距离传感器8固定于对应的货道51的后端,且连接于控制模组1。
各距离传感器8用于获取对应的货道51上的货品与货道51的后端的距离变化信息,请参考图7,以一个货道51为例,Y表示货道的后端与货品之间的距离,由于货道51朝 向柜门3向下倾斜,当有货品被取出时,后面的货品会在重力作用下下滑,此时货品与货道51的后端的距离Y增大;即,当存在距离传感器8获取的距离变化信息为增大时,说明该距离传感器8对应的货道51上存在货品被取出;反之,则说明不存在货品被取出。
控制模组1具体用于根据距离变化信息以及取货图像,与用户绑定的支付账户完成支付交易。
本实施方式相对于第一实施方式而言,在各货道的后端设置距离传感器来采集货道的后端与货品的距离变化信息,当该距离变大时,说明用户取出了货品,结合了距离变化信息以及取货图像,从而提高了判断用户是否取出货品的准确度。需要说明的是,本实施方式也可以作为在第二实施方式基础上的改进,可以达到同样的技术效果。
本申请的第四实施方式涉及一种自动售货装置。第四实施方式是在第一实施方式基础上的细化,主要细化之处在于:提供了一种与用户完成支付交易的具体实现方式。
本实施例中,请参考图8,自动售货装置还包括通信模块9,通信模块9例如为无线网卡,控制模组1通过通信模块9与云服务器10连接。
控制模组1用于根据取货图像获取被取出的货品的货品信息,并将货品信息以及与用户绑定的支付账户发送至云服务器10,从而通过云服务器10完成支付交易,即,根据货品信息中的货品价格,从与用户绑定的支付账户中扣款。
控制模组1在接收到用户的访问命令时,从用户的访问命令中获取与用户绑定的支付账户信息,控制模组1接收用户的访问命令的方式有两种,具体如下:
第一种,请参考图9,自动售货装置还包括连接于控制模组1的信息输入设备20,信息输入设备20固定于柜体2的外壁;其中,信息输入设备20为以下任意之一或任意组合:触控面板、指纹识别传感器、虹膜识别传感器、人脸识别传感器以及掌纹识别传感器。
控制模组1通过信息输入设备20接收用户的访问命令,在接收到用户的访问命令时,通过云服务器10对用户进行验证,在验证通过时解锁柜门3并启动摄像模组4。具体的,云服务器10中存储有所有用户的账户信息,控制模组1将用户的访问命令中包括的用户的登录信息发送至云服务器10进行验证,当验证通过时,控制模组1解锁柜门3并启动摄像模组4。其中,当信息输入设备20为触控面板时,用户可以直接在触控面板上登录已注册的账号;当信息输入设备20为指纹识别传感器、虹膜识别传感器、人脸识别传感器或掌纹识别传感器时,用户在注册账号时,已绑定有相应的生物识别信息,从而可以通过生物识别信息进行账号的登录。
第二种,柜体2上还设有识别码,识别码可以为二维码、条形码等。用户使用移动终端扫描该识别码时,移动终端向云服务器10发送登录信息,云服务器10中存储有所有用 户的账户信息,从而可以对登录信息进行验证,在验证通过时,云服务器10向控制模组1发送用户的访问命令,控制模组1在接收到云服务器10发送的用户的访问命令时,解锁柜门3并启动摄像模组4。其中,识别码也可以显示在一个触控面板上,用户使用移动终端扫描识别码时,可以用该自动售货装置专有的应用程序进行扫描,然不限于此,也可以通过微信、支付宝等应用程序进行扫描。
本实施方式相对于第一实施方式而言,提供了一种与用户完成支付交易的具体实现方式;还提供了接收用户的访问命令的具体实现方式。需要说明的是,本实施方式也可以作为在第二实施方式和第三实施方式基础上的细化,可以达到同样的技术效果。
本申请第五实施方式涉及一种自动售货方法,应用于第一至第四实施例中任一项的自动售货装置。

步骤105,至少根据取货图像,与用户绑定的支付账户完成支付交易。
具体而言,控制模组1从用户的访问命令中获取与用户绑定的支付账户,并至少根据取货图像,与用户绑定的支付账户完成支付交易。
由于第一实施例与本实施例相互对应,因此本实施例可与第一实施例互相配合实施。第一实施例中提到的相关技术细节在本实施例中依然有效,在第一实施例中所能达到的技术效果在本实施例中也同样可以实现,为了减少重复,这里不再赘述。相应地,本实施例中提到的相关技术细节也可应用在第一实施例中。
本申请实施方式相对于现有技术而言,当接收到用户的访问命令时,解锁柜门并启动摄像模组,从而能够通过摄像模组捕捉用户从货架将货品取出到柜体外的取货图像,当检测到柜门被锁定时,说明用户已经完成取货,至少根据取货图像,与用户绑定的支付账户完成支付交易。从而,用户可以真实触摸选购自己所需的物品,拿走关门即可实现自动结算,免去用户现金或者手机支付的过程;对于用户来说,只需进行开门、取货、关门便可以完成整个购物环节,非常便利,提高了用户的购物体验;并且,不存在物品被卡住的风险。
本申请第六实施方式涉及一种自动售货方法,本实施方式是在第五实施方式基础上的改进,主要改进之处在于:通过若干个重力传感器检测货架的重量变化信息。
本实施例中的自动售货方法的具体流程如图11所示。其中,本实施例中的自动售货方法应用于第二实施例中的自动售货装置。
其中,步骤201、步骤202、步骤204与步骤101、步骤102、步骤104大致相同,在此不再赘述,主要不同之处在于:
步骤203,通过摄像模组捕捉用户从货架将货品取出到柜体外的取货图像,并通过若干个重力传感器检测货架的重量变化信息。
具体而言,若干个重力传感器设置在货架5的底部,从而能够检测货架5的重量变化信息;在通过摄像模组4捕捉用户从货架5将货品取出到柜体外的取货图像时,通过若干个重力传感器7检测货架的重量变化信息。
步骤205,根据重量变化信息以及取货图像,与用户绑定的支付账户完成支付交易。
具体而言,在柜门3从解锁到被锁定期间,当若干个重力传感器7检测到货架5的重量减小时,则说明用户从货架5上取出了货品;当若干个重力传感器7检测到货架5的重量没有变化时,则说明用户未从货架5上取出货品。从而可以根据重量变化信息以及取货图像,与用户绑定的支付账户完成支付交易。
由于第二实施例与本实施例相互对应,因此本实施例可与第二实施例互相配合实施。第二实施例中提到的相关技术细节在本实施例中依然有效,在第二实施例中所能达到的技术效果在本实施例中也同样可以实现,为了减少重复,这里不再赘述。相应地,本实施例中提到的相关技术细节也可应用在第二实施例中。
本实施方式相对于第五实施方式而言,在货架的底部设置了重力传感器来检测货架的重量变化信息,当货架的重量减小时,说明用户取出了货品,结合重量变化信息与取货图像,从而提高了判断用户是否取出货品的准确度。
本申请第七实施方式涉及一种自动售货方法,本实施方式是在第五实施方式基础上的 改进,主要改进之处在于:通过若干个重力传感器检测货架的重量变化信息。
本实施例中的自动售货方法的具体流程如图12所示。其中,本实施例中的自动售货方法应用于第三实施例中的自动售货装置。
其中,步骤301、步骤302、步骤304与步骤101、步骤102、步骤104大致相同,在此不再赘述,主要不同之处在于:
步骤303,通过摄像模组捕捉用户从货架将货品取出到柜体外的取货图像,并通过各距离传感器获取对应的货道上的货品与货道的后端的距离变化信息。
具体而言,在通过摄像模组4捕捉用户从货架5将货品取出到柜体2外的取货图像时,通过设置在各货道51后端的距离传感器8获取对应的货道51上的货品与货道51的后端的距离变化信息。
步骤305,根据距离变化信息以及取货图像,与用户绑定的支付账户完成支付交易。
具体而言,由于货道51朝向柜门3向下倾斜,当有货品被取出时,后面的货品会在重力作用下下滑,此时货品与货道51的后端的距离增大;即,当存在距离传感器8获取的距离变化信息为增大时,说明该距离传感器8对应的货道51上存在货品被取出;反之,则说明不存在货品被取出。控制模组1根据多个距离传感器8检测到的距离变化信息以及取货图像,与用户绑定的支付账户完成支付交易。
由于第三实施例与本实施例相互对应,因此本实施例可与第三实施例互相配合实施。第三实施例中提到的相关技术细节在本实施例中依然有效,在第三实施例中所能达到的技术效果在本实施例中也同样可以实现,为了减少重复,这里不再赘述。相应地,本实施例中提到的相关技术细节也可应用在第三实施例中。
本实施方式相对于第五实施方式而言,在各货道的后端设置距离传感器来采集货道的后端与货品的距离变化信息,当该距离变大时,说明用户取出了货品,结合了距离变化信息以及取货图像,从而提高了判断用户是否取出货品的准确度。需要说明的是,本实施方式也可以作为在第六实施方式基础上的改进,可以达到同样的技术效果。
本申请第八实施方式涉及一种自动售货方法,本实施方式是在第五实施方式基础上的细化,主要细化之处在于:提供了一种与用户完成支付交易的具体实现方式。
本实施例中的自动售货方法的具体流程如图13所示。其中,本实施例中的自动售货方法应用于第四实施例中的自动售货装置。
其中,步骤401至步骤404与步骤101至步骤104大致相同,在此不再赘述,主要不同之处在于:步骤405,至少根据取货图像,与用户绑定的支付账户完成支付交易中,具体包括:
子步骤4051,根据取货图像获取货品的货品信息,并将货品信息以及与用户绑定的支付账户发送至云服务器。
具体而言,自动售货装置中预存有所有在售货品的图像及其对应的货品信息,控制模组1从取货图像中获取被取货品的图像,从而能够获取被取货品的货品信息;同时,控制模组1从用户的访问命令中获取与用户绑定的支付账户,继而将被取货品的货品信息以及与用户绑定的支付账户发送至云服务器10。
子步骤4052,通过云服务器完成支付交易。
具体而言,根据货品信息中的货品价格,从与用户绑定的支付账户中扣款。
由于第四实施例与本实施例相互对应,因此本实施例可与第四实施例互相配合实施。第四实施例中提到的相关技术细节在本实施例中依然有效,在第四实施例中所能达到的技术效果在本实施例中也同样可以实现,为了减少重复,这里不再赘述。相应地,本实施例中提到的相关技术细节也可应用在第四实施例中。
本实施方式相对于第一实施方式而言,提供了一种与用户完成支付交易的具体实现方式。需要说明的是,本实施方式也可以作为在第六实施方式和第七实施方式基础上的细化,可以达到同样的技术效果。
本申请实施例提供一种可读存储介质,所述可读存储介质为非易失性可读存储介质,包括程序代码,当所述程序代码在计算设备上运行时,所述程序代码用于使所述计算设备执行上述自动售货方法的动作。
本领域的普通技术人员可以理解,上述各实施方式是实现本申请的具体实施例,而在实际应用中,可以在形式上和细节上对其作各种改变,而不偏离本申请的精神和范围。
