A system and method are provided for in-network power management of network-connected devices. A first computing device, having a power management module, is able to access an in-network computing device table stored in a local memory, of network-connected computing devices cross-referenced to computing device processing capabilities. The power management module retrieves processing capabilities from the in-network computing device table for a network-connected second computing device, and sends a Wake-on-Local Area Network (LAN) message to the second computing device. Subsequently, the power management module sends a server-on-cloud power management message (power management packet) to the second computing device, with instructions for enabling capabilities related to processing or memory management.

The invention relates to a method for generating a target detection football candidate point of a Nao robot based on a Heatmap. The method comprises the steps of selecting a convolutional neural network as a target detection model; simulating competition environments, collecting a plurality of groups of pictures to make a data set for training and testing, generating a Heatmap, processing to obtain a Heatmap visualization result, reconstructing the convolutional neural network to accelerate the network calculation speed, setting a proper threshold value, taking points greater than the set threshold value in the Heatmap as candidate points of a ball, and finally sending the candidate points into a classifier to obtain a final accurate identification result. According to the method, the adaptive capacity of the Nao robot vision system to the light environment of the competition field is enhanced; high-precision recognition of the football can be achieved in different light environments;feature extraction is completed through few convolution layers; the recognition real-time performance is guaranteed; and meanwhile the football recognition accuracy is greatly improved through the method that football candidate points are generated and then enter the classifier to be recognized.
