Abstract

A method of controlling a device located in a predetermined space includes: obtaining sleep information of a person present in a first space from a biological sensor disposed in the first space, the sleep information indicating a sleep state of the person and the first space includes a first device; determining, by a processor, a first sound volume to be set for the first device based on a first database indicating a correspondence between the sleep state and a target sound volume of a corresponding device, the target sound volume of the corresponding device being a predetermined sound volume which does not awake a sleeping person at the sleep state and still be heard by an awake person; and transmitting, to the first device, a first command for setting the first sound volume in the first device as a sound volume upper-limit value.
