[0024] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] Figure 1 FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of the system structure of the air conditioner provided by the present invention. Figure 1As shown, the air conditioner includes: a control panel 101, which is arranged inside the air conditioner, receives target operation mode information, and determines a target scene and a target camera for projecting the target scene according to the target operation mode information; a projection component 102, which includes multiple 3D cameras, and the multiple 3D cameras are connected to the control panel. According to the projection instruction of the control panel, the target scene is projected on the target wall through the target camera; wherein the target camera is two or more of the multiple 3D cameras.

[0026] It can be understood that the air conditioner provided by the present invention includes a control panel 101 and a projection component 102, wherein the control panel 101 is arranged inside the air conditioner. When the air conditioner starts to run, the control panel 101 receives target operating mode information from the user or the air conditioner. After receiving the target operating mode information, the control panel 101 determines the target scene and the target camera for projecting the target scene according to the target operating mode information.

[0027] Among them, the target operating mode information is information related to the operating state of the air conditioner, which can be the air conditioner operating in cooling mode, heating mode, or other operating modes of the air conditioner, such as the air conditioner is in standby mode.

[0028] The target scene refers to a scene corresponding to the target operation mode information, which can bring an immersive visual experience to the user, and the number of target scenes can be one scene or multiple scenes. The target camera refers to a camera used to project the target scene. For example, in a specific embodiment, the target operation mode information of the air conditioner is to operate in cooling mode, and the corresponding target scene is a scene of icebergs and snow.

[0029] The projection assembly 102 includes a plurality of 3D cameras, which are installed at the display panel of the air conditioner. This is because the display panel is usually located at a higher position of the air conditioner, which can effectively ensure the projection effect of the 3D camera. It should be noted that the number of 3D cameras is at least two, and the target camera is selected from the plurality of 3D cameras.

[0030] At the same time, these multiple 3D cameras are connected to the control board 101. Based on this connection, after determining the target scene and the target camera used to project the target scene, the control board 101 will generate a projection instruction and forward the projection instruction to the projection component 102, so that the target camera projects the target scene on the target wall according to the projection instruction.

[0031] The projection instruction includes a target camera and a target scene to be projected by the target camera. The target cameras are two or more of the multiple 3D cameras. In a specific embodiment, the number of 3D cameras is 6 and the number of target cameras is 4.

[0032] It is easy to understand that the indoor wall surface includes 6 walls, namely the top surface and the ground surface, and 4 surrounding walls. The target wall surface can be one wall or multiple walls in the indoor wall surface, without specific limitation.

[0033] It should be noted that the two-to-two correspondences between the target scene, the target wall, and the target camera can be one-to-one correspondences or other correspondences, which are not specifically limited here. However, it should be noted that a target camera cannot project multiple target scenes at the same time. In a specific embodiment, the target wall and the target camera are in a one-to-one correspondence, and the air conditioner is running in heating mode. After the control board 101 receives the information, it determines that the target scene is a hot desert, and determines that the scene is projected by 5 target cameras, namely, the 3D cameras corresponding to the 4 walls and the ground in the room, respectively. After these 5 target cameras receive the projection command from the control board 101, the hot desert scene is projected on the 4 walls and the ground in the room.

[0034] In this embodiment, the air conditioner includes a control panel 101 and a projection component 102. The control panel 101 receives target operation mode information and determines a target scene and a target camera for projecting the target scene according to the target operation mode information. The projection component 102 includes a plurality of 3D cameras connected to the control panel 101. According to the projection instruction of the control panel 101, two or more cameras of the 3D cameras project the target scene on the target wall. The air conditioner enables the user to immerse in the scene corresponding to the actual operation mode of the air conditioner when using the air conditioner, giving the user an immersive feeling and increasing the user's visual experience.

[0035] Based on the above embodiment, the control panel 101 includes a scene unit, which is connected to the indoor electronic device, obtains the scene image from the indoor electronic device, and stores the obtained scene image as a preset scene, and the target scene is extracted from the preset scene.

[0036] It can be understood that the air conditioner includes a control panel 101 and a projection component 102. The control panel 101 includes a scene unit, which is connected to the indoor electronic device. Based on the connection relationship, the scene unit can obtain a scene image from the indoor electronic device and store the obtained scene image as a preset scene. When the target camera projects the target scene on the target wall, it can be directly extracted from the preset scene for use.

[0037] Among them, indoor electronic devices include devices with storage and forwarding functions, such as common mobile phones, computers, tablets and televisions, etc. The scene unit and indoor electronic devices can be connected wirelessly or via Bluetooth.

[0038] In this embodiment, the control panel 101 in the air conditioner includes a scene unit, which can obtain rich scene images from indoor electronic devices and store the obtained scene images as preset scenes for the target camera to extract and use during projection, thereby enriching the target scene, giving users more visual choices, and further enhancing the user's visual experience.

[0039] On the basis of the above embodiment, the air conditioner further includes: a remote controller connected to the control panel, receiving target operation mode information from the user and forwarding it to the control panel 101 .

[0040] It can be understood that the air conditioner includes a control panel 101, a projection component 102 and a remote control, wherein the remote control is connected to the control panel 101 and is used to receive target operating mode information from the user. Specifically, the user determines the operating mode of the air conditioner through the remote control according to his or her actual needs. After the remote control receives the air conditioner operating mode information required by the user, it forwards the target operating mode information to the control panel 101 for the control panel 101 to perform subsequent operations.

[0041] In this embodiment, the air conditioner further includes a remote controller, which can obtain target operation mode information from a user and forward the information to the control board 101 to assist the control board 101 in determining the target scene and the target camera.

[0042] On the basis of the above embodiment, the air conditioner further comprises: an information unit, which is arranged inside the air conditioner, obtains indoor environmental parameters, determines target operation mode information according to the environmental parameters, and forwards it to the control panel.

[0043] It can be understood that the air conditioner includes a control panel 101, a projection component 102 and an information unit. The information unit is arranged inside the air conditioner and is used to obtain indoor environmental parameters, determine the current more suitable air conditioner operation mode based on the obtained environmental parameters, that is, the target operation mode information, and forward the target operation mode information to the control panel 101 for the control panel 101 to perform subsequent operations.

[0044] The information unit may be composed of a variety of sensors that can reflect environmental conditions, such as temperature sensors, humidity sensors, light sensors, odor sensors, and sound sensors. Environmental parameters include indoor temperature, humidity, light intensity, odor, and sound.

[0045] In this embodiment, the air conditioner further includes an information unit, which can determine target operation mode information according to the acquired environmental parameters, and forward the information to the control board 101 to assist the control board 101 in determining the target scene and the target camera.

[0046] On the basis of the above embodiment, the projection assembly 102 includes a sound control component, which is connected to the control panel 101 and emits a sound corresponding to the target scene when the target scene is projected onto the target wall.

[0047] It is understandable that the projection assembly 102 in the air conditioner includes a sound control component, which is connected to the control panel 101. When the target scene is projected on the target wall, the sound control component will emit a sound corresponding to the target scene.

[0048] For example, in a specific embodiment, the target camera projects a scene of the underwater world on the target wall, and the sound control component emits the sound of sea water flooding and fish swimming, making the user feel as if they are personally on the scene.

[0049] Similarly, the sound control component can also be connected to indoor electronic devices to obtain various sounds corresponding to the target scene from the indoor electronic devices, so that rich sounds can be extracted and used when the target scene is projected onto the target wall.

[0050] In this embodiment, the projection component 102 includes a sound control component connected to the control panel 101. When the target scene is projected on the target wall, the sound control component will emit a sound that is adapted to the target scene, so that when the user uses the air conditioner, they can be immersed in a scene corresponding to the actual operating mode of the air conditioner, giving the user an immersive feeling while increasing the user's visual and auditory experience.

[0051] Additionally, in one embodiment, Figure 2 FIG. 2 shows a schematic projection diagram of the air conditioner provided by the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, the remote controller receives target operation mode information from the user and forwards the target operation mode information to the control board 101. Figure 2 It can be seen that in this embodiment, the target operation mode information includes two types, namely, the heating mode and the cooling mode, and then the control board 101 determines different target scenes and target cameras according to these two different operation mode information.

[0052] exist Figure 2 In the embodiment, the projection assembly 102 includes 6 3D cameras, each 3D camera corresponds to a wall. In the cooling mode of the air conditioner, the control board 101 determines that the target scene is the underwater world scene, and determines that the target camera is all 3D cameras (6 3D cameras), that is, Figure 2 The wall cameras 1-4, the top camera and the ground camera are used to project the underwater world scene on the 6 walls of the room by the target camera.

[0053] In the heating mode of the air conditioner, the control board 101 determines that the target scene is the fireplace spark scene, and determines that the target camera is the 3D camera corresponding to the four walls of the room among all the 3D cameras, that is, Figure 2 In the wall cameras 1-4, the target camera projects the fireplace spark scene on the four walls in the room.

[0054] Figure 3 FIG. 2 shows a flow chart of the projection method based on the air conditioner provided by the present invention. Figure 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0055] S301, obtaining target operation mode information of the air conditioner.

[0056] In this step, the target operation mode information is information related to the operation state of the air conditioner, and specifically may be a heating mode, a cooling mode or other operation modes.

[0057] The target operation mode information of the air conditioner can be obtained by the user inputting information into the remote control, or the air conditioner can determine the corresponding operation mode according to the environmental parameters to obtain the target operation mode information.

[0058] The environmental parameters include indoor temperature, humidity, light intensity, smell, and sound. For example, if the temperature is high, the humidity is low, and the sunlight intensity is high, then the target operation mode information of the air conditioner can be determined as the air conditioner operating in cooling mode.

[0059] S302, projecting a target scene onto a target wall through a 3D camera according to the target operation mode information.

[0060] On the basis of acquiring the target operation mode information of the air conditioner in the previous step S301 , the 3D camera projects the target scene on the target wall according to the acquired target operation mode information.

[0061] The number of 3D cameras is two or more. The target scene refers to a scene that corresponds to the target operation mode information and can provide the user with an immersive visual experience. The number of target scenes can be one scene or multiple scenes. The target wall can be one or more of the six walls in the room, without specific limitation.

[0062] It should be noted that the target scene is projected on the target wall through the 3D camera. Specifically, an appropriate number of cameras can be selected from all 3D cameras for projection operation, but the number of selected 3D cameras should be two or more.

[0063] In this embodiment, by obtaining the target operating mode information of the air conditioner and projecting the target scene on the target wall using a 3D camera based on the target operating mode information, this method enables the user to immerse himself in the scene corresponding to the actual operating mode of the air conditioner when using the air conditioner, giving the user an immersive feeling and increasing the user's visual experience.

[0064] On the basis of the above embodiment, further, the projection method based on the air conditioner also includes: when the target scene is projected onto the target wall, controlling the air conditioner to emit a sound corresponding to the target scene.

[0065] It is understandable that when the target scene is projected on the target wall, the air conditioner will emit a sound corresponding to the target scene.

[0066] For example, in a specific embodiment, the target camera projects a hot desert scene on the target wall, and the air conditioner emits the sounds of cicadas and burning fire, making the user feel as if they are actually there.

[0067] It should be noted that if the user has high requirements for the sound produced by the air conditioner, it is also possible to obtain various sounds corresponding to the target scene from the indoor electronic devices by linking with the indoor electronic devices, so that when the target scene is projected onto the target wall, the user can choose from a variety of sounds.

[0068] In this embodiment, when the target scene is projected on the target wall, the air conditioner will emit sounds that are appropriate to the target scene, so that when the user uses the air conditioner, they can be immersed in the scene corresponding to the actual operating mode of the air conditioner, giving the user an immersive feeling while increasing the user's visual and auditory experience.

[0069] Figure 4 FIG. 2 shows a schematic diagram of the structure of the projection device based on the air conditioner provided by the present invention. Figure 4 As shown, the device includes: an information acquisition module 401, which is used to obtain the target operation mode information of the air conditioner; and a scene projection module 402, which is used to project the target scene on the target wall through a 3D camera according to the target operation mode information.

[0070] The projection device based on the air conditioner provided by the present invention and the projection method based on the air conditioner described above can be referred to each other, and will not be described in detail here.

[0071] In this embodiment, the target operating mode information of the air conditioner is obtained through the information acquisition module 401, and the scene projection module 402 uses a 3D camera to project the target scene on the target wall according to the target operating mode information. This device enables the user to immerse himself in the scene corresponding to the actual operating mode of the air conditioner when using the air conditioner, giving the user an immersive feeling and increasing the user's visual experience.
