Abstract

A mobile device controlling system includes one mobile device of a plurality, a controlling terminal of a plurality, and a server. A method for the system is also described. The one mobile device of the plurality includes a connection establishment module, an information transmission module, and an operation module. The connection establishment module transmits on startup a connection request to a server to establish a connection and the information transmission module transmits mobile device ID and status to the server. The operation module receives feedback from the server as to one verified controlling terminal within the plurality and the mobile device can be exclusively controlled by that terminal according to the feedback.

Claims

1. A mobile device comprising a moving part for moving, the mobile device further comprising:

a connection establishment module, configured to transmit a connection request to a server to establish a connection between the mobile device and the server;

an information transmission module, configured to transmit a mobile device identification information and a mobile device status information to the server in response to the mobile device being connected to the server; and

an operation module, configured to receive a server feedback information and control the mobile device according to the server feedback information;

wherein the connection establishment module sends the connection request to the server according to a certification information, the server feedback information is generated by the mobile device identification information, the mobile device status information and an operating information received by the server.

2. The mobile device of claim 1, further comprising an authentication module;

wherein the authentication module is configured to determine whether the server feedback information is authorised; and

the operation module controls the mobile device according to the server feedback information in response to the server feedback information being authorised.

3. The mobile device of claim 2, wherein the authentication module further determines whether the mobile device is in a locking state;

and the authentication module suspends determining the server feedback information in response to the mobile device being in a locking state.

4. A controlling terminal, comprising:

a display screen;

a connection establishment module, configured to transmit a first connection request to a server to establish a connection between the controlling terminal and the server;

an information receiving module, configured to receive multiple mobile devices information through the server to display on the display screen; and

an operation module, configured to output an operating information to the server;

wherein the connection establishment module sends the first connection request to the server according to a certification information, and the connection establishment module is further configured to transmit a second connection request to the server to establish a connection between the controlling terminal and a target mobile device.

5. The controlling terminal of claim 4, wherein the information receiving module is further configured to receive a connection verification request, and the connection establishment module is further configured to transmit a connection verification information to the server, to transmit the target mobile device to verify.

6. The controlling terminal of claim 5, wherein when the controlling terminal is connected to the target mobile device, the server transmits a target mobile device identification information and a target mobile device status information to the controlling terminal.

7. A mobile device controlling system, comprising at least one mobile device, at least one controlling terminal, and a server;

each of the mobile device, comprising;

a first connection establishment module, configured to transmit a first connection request to the server to establish a connection between the mobile device and the server;

an information transmission module, configured to transmit a mobile device identification information and a mobile device status information to the server in response to the mobile device being connected to the server; and

a first operation module, configured to receive a feedback information and control the mobile device according to the feedback information;

each of the controlling terminal, comprising;

a second connection establishment module, configured to transmit a second connection request to the server to establish a connection between the controlling terminal and the server;

an information receiving module, configured to receive multiple mobile devices information through the server; and

a second operation module, configured to output an operating information to the server;

wherein the first connection establishment module sends the first connection request to the server according to a first certification information, and the second connection establishment module sends the second connection request to the server according to a second certification information;

the second connection establishment module is further configured to transmit a third connection request to the server to establish a connection between the controlling terminal and the mobile device; and

the server generates the feedback information according to the mobile device identification information, the mobile device status information and the operating information.

8. The mobile device controlling system of claim 7, wherein the mobile device further comprises an authentication module;

and the authentication module is configured to output a connection verification request to the controlling terminal in response to receiving the third connection request, the authentication module further determines whether the controlling terminal is authorised; and

the controlling terminal is allowed to connect to the mobile device via the server in response to the controlling terminal being authorised.

9. The mobile device controlling system of claim 8, wherein the authentication module further determines whether the mobile device is in a locking state;

and the authentication module suspends determining the controlling terminal in response to the mobile device being in a locking state.

10. The mobile device controlling system of claim 8, wherein the information receiving module further configured to receive the connection verification request, the second connection establishment module is further configured to transmit a connection verification information to the server, to transmit the mobile device to verify.

11. The mobile device controlling system of claim 7, wherein when the controlling terminal is connected to the mobile device, the server transmits the mobile device identification information and the mobile device status information to the controlling terminal.

12. A mobile device controlling method, comprising:

transmitting a connection request to a server according to a certification information, to establish a connection between the mobile device and the server;

determining whether the connection is successful;

transmitting a mobile device identification information and a mobile device status information to the server in response to the mobile device being connected to the server; and
