Method for controlling device by remote control device
First Claim
1. A method for controlling a device, comprising:
- identifying an identity image of a controlled device used for identifying the controlled device;
obtaining a control interface of the controlled device according to the identity image;
obtaining operating status information of the controlled device;
receiving a control operation instruction triggered by a user through the control interface;
determining whether a communication connection with the controlled device is currently established according to a connection status indicator corresponding to the identity image, wherein the connection status indicator is configured to indicate a communication connection status with the controlled device;
analyzing and obtaining a device identifier of the controlled device corresponding to the identity image if the communication connection with the controlled device is not established;
establishing the communication connection with the controlled device according to the device identifier of the controlled device; and
sending the control operation instruction to the controlled device through the established communication connection with the controlled device,wherein obtaining the operating status information of the controlled device comprises;
sending a second status obtaining request that comprises the identity image and a user account to a server, to make the server inquire and obtain the operating status information corresponding to the identity image from a database stored with correspondence relationships between identity images and control interfaces of respective controlled devices corresponding to the user account; and
receiving the operating status information sent by the server.

Abstract
A method for controlling a device by a terminal device and the terminal device thereof are provided. The method includes: identifying an identity image of a controlled device; obtaining a control interface of the controlled device according to the identity image; receiving a control operation instruction triggered by a user through the control interface; and sending the control operation instruction to the controlled device by establishing communication connection with the controlled device. The user may identify respective controlled devices and obtain corresponding control interfaces of the controlled devices conveniently in a manner of identifying identity images of respective controlled devices by the same user terminal, and thus realize convenient control over the controlled devices through the control interfaces, so as to improve the convenience and accuracy of controlling the respective controlled devices.
