苹果获38项专利权或欲将Siri装到室内

新华网3月19日电据科技博客网站Gizmodo报道，当我们还在关注手腕上的传感器上，苹果已经“静悄悄”地获得了在室内安装类似Siri的传感器的38项专利。

这些专利主要是有关一个能让Siri在整个房子内部工作的系统，在家里安装之后，从提醒你按时服药到关闭室内灯光，Siri都能通通为你做到。有关苹果公司修改语音助手Siri的消息，我们已经知道很据了：早在去年十月的时候，苹果就收购了Cue，一个扫描用户电子邮件并据此创建议程提醒的手机应用。最近炒得很热的车载系统CarPlay也是严重偷师自Siri。据苹果公司专门负责专利的部门报告，苹果有可能正在计划拓展Siri的使用范围。

这38项专利向我们展示了一个由家里各处安装的传感器构成的网络，通过声音、动作、时间以及光线等发出指令，都会帮助Siri为你提供建议和信息。相关文件中所采用的案例是提醒主人按时服药—早上8点，你身在出访，Siri会提醒你记得按时吃药。

除此之外，你还能用Siri现有的声控设备设置警报、开启家用电器，你所能想到的，整套系统都会为你实现。

苹果公司是否会将这些专利付诸实际还不好说。但是，我们听说苹果公司正在开发一种监控身体各项健康指标的应用程序，这正是监控手机各项指标系统的延伸。

While we were all focused on sensors that fit on our wrists, Apple was quietly winning 38 patents for a system of sensors as big as a house.

The patents describe a system that would let Siri do her job throughout your home, from reminding you to take your meds to turning out your lights. We"ve known for a while that Apple is working on revamping Siri: In October, Apple bought Cue, an app that scans your emails and creates agendas based on them. And CarPlay will borrow heavily from Siri, too. But according to a report from Patently Apple, the company could be planning to expand her domain.

The new patents shows how a network of sensors placed around your home—reading things like motion, time, light, and more—will be used to help Siri make recommendations and provide information. The example the documents use is taking your medicine—Siri will notice that it"s 8 am, and that you"re in the kitchen, and suggest that you remember to take your pills:

Or, you could use Siri"s existing voice controls to set alarms, start appliances, and pretty much anything else you can think of.

Whether or not Apple will really implement any of these concepts is still impossible to say. But after we learned that the company is developing an app for tracking the minutia of your health yesterday, a system that does the same for your phone doesn"t seem all that far-fetched. [Patently Apple]
